Opposite the entrance hall

After returning from Kashgar for a few days, these few days were the happiest time for Ji Si. No one in the palace summoned him, and the prince's side was also quiet, as if he had forgotten his name, and the household office was not in a hurry. After all, the news of his return to Beijing has not yet spread, and not many people know about it. He plays Tai Chi and eats tea all day long in the mansion, and listens to Xue gag a few words with Chuyi from time to time. Life is not too comfortable.

When Tingxue came in with his things in his arms, he was nestling on the rug to guide the calligraphy practice on the first day of junior high school. It was cold outside but the charcoal fire was lit in the house, so he didn’t look cold. He was only wearing a spring coat and tied his hair with a cloth belt of the same color. When she raised her eyes, she had a romantic charm, no wonder the girls in the fireworks building were thinking about it every day.

Ever since Ji Si was injured, Tingxue felt that he seemed to be different from before, but he couldn't tell exactly what was different. He was still the same person, his appearance hadn't changed much, his words and deeds were the same, but his temperament had changed. The earth-shaking changes, everyone said that the original Mr. Ji was not easy to get along with, few people in the house had talked to him, let alone what he was like in private, the only familiar manager Zhao was gone, and it was impossible to trace the past.

So if you really want to ask what kind of temperament Lord Ji used to be, everyone is just like you and I can't tell you a word. It seems that everyone knows something, but they don't know everything. It's too much to count. Tingxue is just a little girl in the house and naturally she doesn't understand, but this Lord Ji treats her well, so she is also willing to like this Lord Ji in front of her, so she doesn't go into those horns any more.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Ji Si raised his head and glanced at it, then nodded his chin at the thing in her arms, "What is that?"

"Master Yang gave you the little gadgets," Tingxue said while putting the things down, "Your Excellency has been away for so long, I don't know, but during this period of time, Mr. Yang has brought a copy of all the interesting little things that Mr. Yang has collected. Said it was waiting for the adults to come back for fun."

"Yang Qin?" Ji Si raised his eyebrows, "Even if he has the heart, it's not in vain to help him. Show me."

Hearing this, Tingxue quickly handed those things to Ji Si, who sat cross-legged on the bed, picked up those things and looked at them, and threw them to the first day when he saw something interesting, chatting with Tingxue from time to time, when there was a knock outside the house There was a sound at the door, "My lord, His Royal Highness sent someone to call you over."

With just such a sentence, the smile on Ji Si's face gradually dissipated. He looked down at the wooden mechanism bird in his hand, thought for a while and said to himself: "It really doesn't stop for a moment."

When getting out of the sedan chair, Ji Si raised his head and looked around calmly. This is neither the East Palace nor the other courtyard of the Yan family. In his impression, it should be the first time he came here. He lowered his eyes and began to think about Li Hongyang's situation in his heart. What kind of abacus was the second fight.

"Master Ji, this way please."

Ji Si nodded and followed behind the man.The attendants of the Eastern Palace surrounded the surroundings tightly, with three steps, one post and five steps, one sentry. The battle was full until the gate of the small courtyard, and the father-in-law who led the way stopped and bowed: "Your Highness is just ahead. , Mr. Ji can go in by himself."

"Thank you, Father." Ji Si looked up at the guards around the courtyard, licked his lips, and walked in.

The guard in front of the door opened the door for him, and there was probably a charcoal fire inside, and a gust of hot air came in. Ji Si took a careful look and heard the coughing sound from inside before walking in. Then there was a "bang", behind him The door of the room was closed heavily, and he stood in the same place, contemplating, when Li Hongyang's feeble voice came from the back room, "Don't get out yet."

Hearing the voice, Ji Si hurried in and bowed to salute, "I have seen Your Highness."

After he finished speaking, there was no movement above his head, and Ji Si didn't look up, but he heard the sound of the spoon colliding with the porcelain bowl. After waiting for a while, he heard Li Hongyang cough: "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Ji Si stood up and looked up, only to see many court ladies and eunuchs standing in the room, as well as Mr. Lan beside Yan Huaizheng and Li Hongyang. , the latter smiled at him jokingly, and shook his head, Ji Si knew it in his heart, and hurriedly looked away.

The charcoal fire in the room was well lit, Ji Si sweated a little on his forehead, and there was a bitter smell of medicine in the air, mixed with incense, which was a little strange. He raised his head and took a cautious look, and saw Li Hongyang sitting on the soft bed. On the couch, the body was covered with a thick blanket made of fox fur, and the whole person seemed to be wrapped in a warm blanket, with a sick face, so white that there was no trace of blood, as if he had just finished drinking medicine and used eunuch The handkerchief that was handed over wiped his mouth and then put it on the table. The maid who was waiting at the side quickly handed over the hot tea that he had made. The person below said, "You have been back to Beijing for a few days."

"It's been two or three days," Ji Si replied respectfully, "After learning about His Highness's poisoning, the lower official was very worried and restless, and couldn't sleep all night. Your Highness is displeased, this has not been waiting for His Highness to summon you."

"Okay, I don't know what your temperament is." Li Hongyang sneered twice, "You are worried that if there is something wrong with the crown prince, you will lose your position as the servant of the household department."

"The subordinate dare not."

"Don't dare? Why don't you dare, Ji Si?" Li Hongyang stared at him with no expression of joy or anger, coughed twice and said, "Tell me, what happened in Kashgar."

Ji Si moved his eyes, for a moment he wasn't sure what Li Hongyang wanted to learn from him. He lowered his eyes and thought about it, and then he told all the things that happened in Kashgar. There are quite a few people, they only need to send someone to Kashgar to know the truth, there is no need to lie, they just concealed Qi Ran's going to Kashgar, and then turned the situation between himself and Qi Ran into a situation. After breaking Xiao Changyubu's game, he was only a part of the game, becoming a pawn and being played around by them.

What he said was justified and well-founded, and even the anger and hatred in the words were the same as usual. Li Hongyang raised his eyes and looked at him sideways, a little uncertain whether what this man said was true or false. He used to be a loach, seemingly non-aggressive but not slippery, but now he is just a tiger cub pretending to be a cat, obedient and obedient, only the claws that are exposed from time to time can reveal the nature of the beast.

Li Hongyang didn't find it strange, because since he knew Ji Si, he knew that this person was more scheming and ambitious than he seemed, and he was not all his own now, and there was an emperor behind him, so these changes seemed so obvious. within reason.

"So, why did Lord Lang of Nandian want to kill you? Why doesn't this prince know that you have such a great ability that he can't wait to get rid of you quickly, unless..." He paused for a while before he stopped talking. Finish the rest of the sentence in a hurry, "Is there any secret that the prince should not know, Ji Si, do you have something to hide from the prince?"

Ji Si panicked, his face suddenly became ugly, he hurriedly knelt down and said in a hurry: "Your Highness, even if you give me ten guts, I won't dare to hide it from you. This is really wronged. I will treat Your Highness like you." A piece of devotion has never had two minds, is there someone who is chewing his tongue in front of His Highness, and the next official will pull out its tongue and throw it to the dogs!"

"Then you wait to talk about it, what is the reason here?"

The truth is absolutely impossible to tell, not to mention that this matter is complicated and involves himself, he himself doesn't know the twists and turns inside, if he really wants to tell it, it will be a mess, Ji Si's mind is full of thoughts, thinking of various ways It was so fast, his face darkened and he decided to let it go, and howled suddenly, "Your Highness must take the place of the next official! Then Xiao Changyu...he...he has...has..."

"What's the matter? Are you unable to speak?" Li Hongyang looked impatiently at Ji Si's faltering appearance.

Ji Si was so angry that he could not restrain the anger in his voice, "He has the advantage of Longyang, he humiliated the subordinate with words, but somehow it fell into the mouth of Nandian thieves, and he thought that the subordinate was the same as that guy What kind of messy relationship is there, these things happened, Xiao Changyu is so conceited, he really deserves to die!"

"Oh," Li Hongyang raised his eyebrows, becoming interested, "How do you know that he is as good as Long Yang?"

"He said that he is an official..." Ji Si paused, gritted his teeth and said with hatred: "It is a pity that the official looks like a good girl, but it is a pity that she was born as a man. If she is a woman, she must... must marry... Your Highness is really serious It's too deceiving!"

When he was speaking, Yan Huaizheng beside him was looking at him. Seeing this angry trembling body, clenched hands, and his tone of wishing to tear Xiao Changyu into pieces, he couldn't tell the truth from the fake. He had heard of Xiao Changyu before. Yu is a tough guy, most military generals look down on civil servants, especially Ji Si, a jester who has a superficial appearance and is stalking others. Those words may not be true or false, but deliberately humiliating Ji Si is definitely true. It's like what Xiao Changyu is capable of, so it's not easy to distinguish between true and false.

Squinting his eyes in thought, Yan Huaizheng looked up at Li Hongyang and shook his head. The latter frowned and coughed twice, and said, "Ji Si. Look up."

Ji Si's heart sank, and he subconsciously clenched his hands and raised his head.

Li Hongyang looked down at the man kneeling in front of him, and he didn't know if he was too angry. The corners of his eyes were red, and there was a fierce look in his brows and eyes. He was a bit cruel and a little bit gorgeous. These two strange feelings formed in this person. Li Hongyang has seen a lot of beauties, and he has to admit that Ji Si has a good appearance, neither delicate like a woman nor rough like a man, somewhere in between, especially when he When I looked up at you, my eyes were full of spring water, and I was full of love without smiling, which shocked my heart.

Was Ji Si ever this good-looking before?

Asking himself in his heart, Li Hongyang doesn't remember very well, he only remembers Ji Si's groveling and flattering appearance. It's really hard to see what this person looks like, but I remember that the boy who saved him at that time should be good-looking , but who knows that there is such a thing inside, so he treats him as a sloppy bag. Li Hongyang retracted his gaze, coughed twice and said contemptuously: "Xiao Changyu is right, you also Only this face can be seen."

Hearing this, Ji Si froze, his face was a little embarrassed, he lowered his head and muttered: "Your Highness said so."

Li Hongyang sneered, wrapped himself in the fox fur, and then frowned, the little eunuch who was waiting beside him immediately put some charcoal into the red stove, and sparks shot out, and the temperature in the room became a little hotter , Ji Si sweated thinly on his forehead and didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it, so he had to lick his dry lips.

"Did you know what happened in the past few days after you came back?" Li Hongyang asked.

Ji Si was a little uncertain about his implication, whether he was asking about the poisoning or about the king of Liang, or about the improvement of the emperor's condition. He thought carefully and answered, "Is your highness referring to the fact that the king of Liang intends to harm you?"

"What do you think?" Li Hongyang didn't respond, but threw the question back intact.

These words have a deep meaning, Ji Si repeated it in his heart, raised his eyes and glanced around, and found that Cao Weiyuan, who used to stick to Li Hongyang with a dog skin plaster, was far away. There was something strange here, and he began to think, if Li Hongyang knew that Li Hongye sent someone According to his temperament, he would not be so calm, he would have started to make a fuss long ago, then today's game will become a plan to get rid of Li Hongye, instead of being as calm as he is now, Li Hongyang has never been a kind and particular about brothers and friends Brother Gong's master, he will repay his grievances and will not suffer at all. If he suffers from Li Hongye and his body is now in such a bad state, even if he can raise it, it will take a lot of work, so there is no reason not to get it back .

The only thing that can explain the abnormality is that he already knows who the person who poisoned him is, but he can't even hate this person, let alone do it. Li Hongyang's various actions today confirmed the two people's guess at that time, the person who poisoned Li Hongyang was the current queen!

Empress Cao Yuhan is Cao Wei's distant younger sister. She has always shown others with an image of both ability and political integrity, gentleness and comfort. It is far from Cao Weiyuan's treacherous villain. Before that, Ji Si would not have thought that she would attack her own son, just to get rid of Li Hongye and force the emperor, step by step, one step after another, it can be said to be deeply thoughtful.

Thinking up to this point, Ji Si somewhat understood the purpose of Li Hongyang calling him today. The emperor passed Liang Wang into the palace, clearly out of a desire to protect him, so today's game was not for Li Hongyang but the emperor, and Ji Si felt uneasy , said in a deep voice: "Your official did not find Jiujie Xuezhi. I heard that it was just a rumor spread by the locals in order to attract foreigners. There has never been any miracle medicine that can kill human flesh and bones. Fool."

"No, you found it." Li Hongyang's voice sounded a little distant in people's ears.

Ji Si raised his eyes and looked over, only to see the coldness in the man's eyes, and he looked coldly at someone, so he had to ask knowingly: "Your Highness... what do you mean, please forgive me for being dull and not understanding."

Li Hongyang didn't say anything but smiled coldly, and raised his chin at Yan Huaizheng who was beside him. The latter nodded in response, got up and walked towards Ji Si, and then took out a delicate wooden box the size of a palm from his arms, "Master Ji, please take a look."

The box was not big, and there was a piece of white grass in it. It said it was grass, but it didn't look like grass. There were roots at the bottom and flower buds at the top. Ji Si looked down for a few times and found it familiar, but he couldn't remember where he saw it. However, her thin lips were tightly pursed, and her expression was a little complicated.

"This is a kind of flower in Xiqiang called Rootless. Most people don't know it because of the harsh growth conditions and the scarcity of it," Yan Huaizheng explained, "Have you heard of Ji Shilang?"

Ji Si didn't make a sound. He grew up in the Eighth Battalion of Tianqi, and he followed the soldiers in the battalion. He was not very familiar with the things of Xiqiang, but he knew a thing or two, but he had never heard of this thing. He raised his eyes to look at Yan Huaizheng, with a questioning expression on his face.

The latter smiled at him and said politely: "Ji Shilang, this is Jiujie Xuezhi."

It was only a few words, but Ji Si could understand the meaning behind the words, his complexion suddenly changed, his heart beat suddenly accelerated, and he said anxiously: "Where did your highness get it, this... this is absolutely impossible, if this happens A bit of a mistake, the lower official will definitely not be able to keep his head, and it is a small matter for the lower official to lose his life, if others know that His Highness is murdered..."

"Master Ji," Mr. Lan, who was silent from the beginning to the end, opened his mouth at this moment, interrupting Ji Si's words to alert him: "Speak carefully."

Ji Si looked over and saw the ruthlessness in his eyes, swallowed back the words before he finished speaking, frowning tightly, with a solemn expression, raised his hand to wipe his sweat and nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, yes, the next official Choose words, and I hope His Highness will forgive you."

Li Hongyang clenched his fists to his mouth and coughed, his whole body trembled, his throat seemed to contain thick phlegm, he couldn't spit it out or swallow it, just stuck like that, the sound of coughing involved the five internal organs and six lungs, and fell in everyone's ears Dumb and ugly.

Fang Qing, the chief eunuch of the East Palace, hurriedly moved closer to pat Li Hongyang on the back, and after a while his cough gradually subsided. He picked up the tea on the table and handed it over. : "What are you afraid of, asking you to send things up is not letting people die."

Ji Si sneered twice in his heart, and sneered at this man's shameless temper. He gave this thing to him, and Li Hongyang took advantage of it. He was responsible for all the bad things. If something happened, he would be the first to be blamed. At that time, not only would Li Hongyang not be able to speak for him, but he might even beat him up. At that time, he would lose his wife and lose his army.

He didn't know what Li Hongyang's plan was, but he knew what he was thinking in life. The thing in this box was a hot potato. He couldn't take it, and he couldn't take it. Si panicked.

Seeing Ji Siwei's resigned and regretful appearance, Yan Huaizheng laughed out loud, "Ji Shilang, you have misunderstood your highness' painstaking efforts, this rootless is not a poison, but an ordinary medicinal material, and it is harmless to the human body if you eat it, your highness I'm just worried that you went to Kashgar here to follow the emperor's order for the Jiujie Xuezhi, if you get nothing this trip, do you think the emperor will blame you?"

He paused at this point, looked at Ji Si's expression, saw that there was nothing wrong and continued: "This time, His Highness was victimized by a traitor, and fortunately, he was able to turn the crisis into safety. At this juncture, all parties are staring at each other, and His Highness is just cherishing talents." When employing people, Ji Shilang has been with His Highness for eight years if not ten years, and His Highness can still harm you. This thing is not a life-saving talisman, but a life-saving talisman that His Highness gave to Master Ji. Does Master Ji not want to accept this good intention, but I don’t know if there is something wrong. Did you find a way to save your life, or do you want to chill His Highness's heart?"

Yan Huaizheng's ability has never been low, he was born with a slick heart, and he is really superb in trying to figure out people's hearts. What he said was impeccable, and Ji Si was pushed into the limelight with a few words. People were caught in a dilemma, Ji Si scolded Yan Huaizheng bloody in his heart, and pretended to be grateful on his face, and suddenly realized: "The lower officials are stupid. I never thought of such a complicated situation. If there is no Your Highness , I'm afraid I won't be able to keep the head on my neck this time."

Li Hongyang raised his eyes and met Yan Huaizheng's eyes, revealing a tacit look, and the latter pushed the box forward, "Master Ji, take it."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Ji Si said with her head down.

"Okay," Li Hongyang rubbed his brows and said, "I'm a little tired, you go back first, don't talk about what to do next."

"Yes, the subordinate retire."

When Ji Si retreated with the box in his hands, Li Hongyang started coughing again. Yan Huaizheng and Mr. Lan wanted to step forward when their expressions changed, but he waved his hand to refuse, and he calmed down after a while.

"Your Highness should not leave the palace before his body is fully recovered." Mr. Lan said earnestly.

"During this period of time, the palace is very chaotic, and it's annoying to watch, not to mention that some things need to be seen by me to be safe."

Yan Huaizheng signaled Su Qing to get some hot tea, and after thinking about it, he still couldn't hold back and asked, "Is Your Highness still angry with Your Majesty?"

Hearing this question, Li Hongyang pursed his lips and remained silent.

"Your Majesty did this for the sake of His Highness' great cause." Yan Huaizheng hesitated, but still persuaded him, "My Majesty has worked hard with good intentions, and every step of her plan is to clear the way for His Highness to eliminate dissidents. Those who achieve great things should be more ruthless. Only when you are willing can you take care of the great cause, Your Highness should not be angry with your empress at this juncture."

"Huaizheng," Li Hongyang stared at the incense burner in front of him, did not answer his words, but asked in a calm tone, "Do you think all parents in the world love their children?"

Yan Huaizheng opened his mouth to answer, but all the things that happened in the past few days emerged in his mind, but he couldn't say "yes", and finally just kept silent.

"Your Highness," Mr. Lan sighed, and said earnestly: "Those who achieve great things are always ruthless. Indecisiveness is the work of the weak. Instead of thinking about these things, Your Highness should think about how to get the most out of this opportunity. Don't miss this opportunity." .”

Hearing this, Li Hongyang's eyes staring at the incense burner dimmed, and his heart was full of thoughts. Ji Si made this move, and he could only live or die.

Light smoke from the incense burner curled up in every corner of the room, and the smoke escaped from the window lattice, melted into the wind, and mixed into the clouds. Ji Si stopped and stood where he was, slowly looking up at the scattered and gathered clouds in the sky , the clouds do not seem to be pure white but a little bit black, and they are densely piled up together, which makes the distance between the sky and the earth much closer, as if you can touch it with your hand.

"What's wrong with Ji Shilang?" The little eunuch who led the way stopped when he saw him stop, looked up, but didn't see anything interesting, so he asked with a confused face.

Ji Si looked at it for a while, then looked away, and didn't return the words of the little eunuch, and walked forward on his own. The other courtyard that Li Hongyang chose was a bit far away, and it was still bright when he came, but it was already dark when he returned to the city. After getting down, there was a lively shout from the street outside. Ji Siben was closing his eyes and meditating. When he heard the movement, he opened the car curtain and looked outside. He caught a glimpse of a figure from the corner of his eye. He frowned and hurriedly called, "Stop the car."

The bearer looked at the little eunuch in blank dismay, the latter knew that the man in the sedan chair was moody and did not dare to refuse, so he quickly stopped the sedan chair, and then Ji Si bowed out and straightened his clothes.

"What's your order, sir?" the little eunuch asked.

"Oh, some private matters." Ji Si pointed to the Flower Street beside him, smiling meaningfully, "This place is not far from my house, I'll go back later on my own, thank you little eunuch for running this trip, Don't tell the prince about it when you get back, lest he blame me for being ridiculous."

As he spoke, he took off the jade pendant around his waist and handed it over.

The little eunuch delayed seeing his hospitality but accepted it, thinking about how much the jade pendant was worth, smiled from ear to ear and said politely: "Your Excellency, take care of yourself, the servant will go back and return."

"Father-in-law, walk slowly."

The smile on Ji Si's face was maintained until the group of people in the East Palace left, and the smile on his face dissipated as soon as they walked away. With a cold face, he turned and looked at Hualou behind him in thought. He just saw a person , one of Qian Duo's subordinates that day, although the scene was chaotic at the time, Ji Si still remembered the person's appearance with his easy-to-use brain, which is why he was so shocked.

Those people are in Lin'an?

What are they doing in Lin'an?

Could it be that the person behind it is also in Lin'an?

As questions emerged one after another, Ji Si pursed her thin lips, narrowed her eyes, and walked in.

This flower house called Ting Fengxuan is quite famous in Lin'an, not because of the quality of the girls, but because it is the only flower house in Lin'an that has both girls and young ladies. Compared with other flower houses, it looks even better. He was a mixed bag, but he was quite famous. As soon as Ji Si walked in, he could see the gorgeous girl at the door, with powder on her face and waving a handkerchief, and she could smell the fragrance from a distance.

When Ji Si approached, the girls in the group stared straight at him. He was good-looking, and his clothes were either rich or expensive. The girls in the building were all human-like figures. Leaning against Ji Si's arm, Jiao Didi said: "Master, you look so familiar, I've never seen it before."

The touch from the arm made Ji Si a little embarrassed, and frowned slightly, then patted the girl's side face and raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly, "Serving my good master tonight will benefit you."

He lowered his head and smiled, and his whole body became more lively. The girl was stunned, and then she only thought that she had picked up a good deal today, and she smiled from ear to ear and walked in next to Ji Si with a shy face, which made the other girls very angry. jealous.

Compared with the outside, the house was more lively. On the stage, dancers in tulle were dancing, and the melodious voices were laughing and laughing. From time to time, obscene words and pornographic words were heard in the hall, and the people who listened blushed.

Ji Si walked into the hall with the girl in his arms and looked around, but he didn't see the person. He was urged by the girl in his arms to go to the box on the second floor. When the door was closed, the girl took off the thin coat impatiently. Showing her fair and plump body, her eyes were as charming as silk and her breath as blue, she moved lightly with lotus steps and hugged Ji Sijiao from behind and said: "My lord, it's better to take a break earlier because the night is too short. I have someone make a set of horns, my lord." Don't you want to try it with the slave family?"

When she was talking, she rested her chin on Ji Si's shoulder and exhaled against the person. She rubbed her breasts back and forth lightly and pointed her fingers on her back. This is a common flirting method used by Hualou. No matter how upright people are, they will have desires.

After waiting for a while and seeing that Ji Si was still drinking, the girl simply lifted the hem of Ji Si's clothes and made a gesture to slide down. When Ji Si stretched out her hand to stop her, she raised her head in confusion, and saw the handsome man in front of her. The man smiled at himself, opened his thin lips lightly and said, "Girl, I'm so masculine."

"..."

As soon as these words came out, Ji Sixiao's brows and eyes curved, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw the corners of the girl's mouth twitched, her eyes were full of disgust, and she might scold herself bloody in her heart, but she didn't dare to offend herself on the face, so she forced a smile Laughing: "Young Master, I'm going to help you replace someone."

"No need," Ji Si propped his chin and tilted his head with a smile, "I want to ask you something."

Wen Yan girl turned around, picked up the clothes on the ground and wrapped them casually around her body, and sat down, as if she was not surprised by such things, she crossed the table and approached Ji Si, with a charming smile on her face, and blinked Said: "Young master wants to ask something from the slave family. It is not impossible. These days, there are many people like the son who come to inquire about the news. Whether it is seeking revenge or catching traitors, it has nothing to do with the slave family. It is very easy for the master to ask. Simple, just look at..."

She stopped here and tapped Ji Si's chest with her fingers dyed with red phoenix. The latter followed her hand and raised her head, seeing the girl in front of her winking at herself, "My lord is not sincere."

The meaning behind the words is self-evident, Ji Si's smile remained undiminished, he reached out and patted his fingers on his chest, took out a silver ingot from his pocket and slapped it on the table, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you sincere enough?"

"Enough is enough," the girl's eyes lit up, worrying that he would repent, she hurriedly put the money into her pocket, her smile trembling, "Young master, you can ask whatever you want, and I will tell you as long as I know."

Ji Si described the man's appearance and clothes in a few words. The girl was a little puzzled after hearing this, but she knew the reason why curiosity killed the cat didn't ask any more questions, but told Ji Si everything she knew.

That person is an old customer in the building, his name is Zhao Laowu, he seems to be a martial artist, every time he calls a girl named Qiuyue, a few months have passed since the last time.

Listening to her words, Ji Si tapped his fingers on the table unconsciously, thinking about something with a sullen face, and when he got up to leave, he turned his head slightly and smiled before going out: "Thank you, girl, I hope today's matter will be kept secret. I bid farewell."

After coming out of the house, Ji Si stood in the corridor on the second floor. There were bursts of obscene words from the hall below, and some girls' voices came from the rooms on the left and right sides, which was mixed with the boy's panting, and he squinted. Looking around with eyes closed, the wine she drank in the room was a bit smug, staining Ruyu's cheeks with two touches of blush, but fortunately she was conscious, and started to wander around pretending to be slightly drunk.

The layout of this building is somewhat convoluted. A gazebo in the lake was repaired in the courtyard at the back. The evening breeze brought some coolness to his hot face. There are signs hanging outside the boudoirs of these girls, and Ji Si went one by one. After reading it again, I didn't see the one named Qiuyue, which showed two points, either the girl lied to me, or this Qiuyue didn't need to list, no matter which point it was, it just showed that it was not simple.

This is Ji Si's windfall. He didn't intend to face Zhao Laowu directly. If he had no chance of winning, he would scare the snake. It is rare to get the clue of Qiuyue. People will not run away or be in a hurry. Thinking about it, he planned to leave, but when he turned around, he bumped into the person who came, his shoulders hurt and his brows furrowed.

The person who came was also knocked badly and fell to the ground. The handsome young man next to him was so panicked that he rushed over to help him up, his little face paled in panic, "Ah, Mr. Dong, are you okay?"

Mr. Dong was dizzy from the fall, and because of the fact that he drank a lot of wine, he woke up after a while, raised his head with anger, and shouted sharply: "Are you fucking blind, can't you see me?" Son..."

The following words came to an abrupt end when he looked at Ji Si with some cold eyes and drunken face, and the furious expression was replaced by lewdness immediately. He pushed away the young man who was supporting him and rushed to Ji Si, his eyes fell on The person couldn't move half of his body, and asked with a very obscene smile: "Why is the beauty here alone? The person who is in such a hurry knows that I am behind you, do you want to throw yourself into my arms?"

Ji Si glanced at the drunkard with a cold face, but he didn't intend to cause trouble. It was dark all around. The drunkard probably couldn't tell the north from the south due to the smell of alcohol. He turned around and wanted to leave. Unexpectedly, this man opened his hands and blocked the road , "Why are you so anxious, my son, why haven't I seen you in the building, what's your name, after you redeem your body, you will never be able to enjoy the glory and wealth."

The young man next to him raised his head and glanced at Ji Si, seeing his attire, he knew that he was not from the building, and pulled Mr. Dong's sleeve to remind him, "My lord, you are wrong, this is not..."

But he never thought that Mr. Dong was so cowardly and intoxicated that he regarded Ji Si as a person in the building, pushed the young man away, and said fiercely: "Go away, what are you, let's talk nonsense again." Grandpa can't kill you."

He changed his face very quickly. He was still angry a second ago. When facing Ji Si, he immediately smiled and hiccupped. The unpleasant smell of alcohol hit Ji Si's face, causing him to turn his head to avoid it.

The man's eyes were shining, he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and put his hand on Ji Si's shoulder. If you still want."

"Hey, the little beauty still has a temper, I like it." Mr. Dong smiled maliciously.

Ji Si's face darkened, he squinted his eyes and put his right hand on the dagger at his waist, but a laugh came from behind the dagger before it was unsheathed, "If Mr. Dong knows that Mr. Dong has such a temper outside, he will probably be annoyed." die."

The voice sounded familiar, and Ji Si recalled it in his mind, and when he turned around, he met the playful eyes of the person behind him.

The person behind him was none other than Li Hongyu, King of Qin. When Ji Si looked over, he met his eyes. The latter was wearing a black brocade robe with cloud patterns embroidered with gold thread, and a gilt crown on his head. He was wearing a coquettish style. The appearance of people dressed as two guards made the situation a little tense.

Li Hongyu walked up to Ji Si with his hands behind his back, stopped a step away from him, lowered his eyes and said softly: "Long time no see, don't come here for nothing."

The tone is gentle, like a whisper between lovers.

Mr. Dong's eyes fell on the two of them and glanced back and forth, and finally stopped on Li Hongyu's face, growling with displeasure on his face: "Who are you, and where did you come from, you dare to disturb my good business, and you know who I am! !"

Hearing the sound of barking, Li Hongyu had no choice but to raise his head and nodded, with a good-natured face, not even half annoyed by the provocation, "Yes, the second son of Dong Shangshu's family in the Ministry of Rites."

Hearing that, Mr. Dong's complexion became ugly, and even Ji Si looked back at him twice more.

The son of Dong Shangshu, Ministry of Rites?

That is Dong Xingliang's son.

Ji Si raised his eyebrows, thinking a bit badly, if Dong Xingliang knew that his son wanted to bring him back to the mansion, he would die on the spot.

Thinking of that scene, he couldn't help curling his lips, causing Li Hongyu to take a look.

Hearing that Li Hongyu mentioned his father's name, Mr. Dong was a little scared. Although he was bold and drunk, he was not too drunk and confused. Lin'an is the son of the emperor, and there are many noble people. I couldn't decide who the person in front of me was.

Thinking about weighing the pros and cons, he said cheerfully, "Don't disturb my father with such trivial matters, but he's just a young lady, and it's not a rare thing. If this brother likes it, I'll let you do it."

"Xiao Guan?" Li Hongyu repeated, but his eyes were fixed on Ji Si, the smiles in his eyes poured out, Ji Si opened his mouth and wanted to deny it, but Li Hongyu didn't give him this opportunity, cut off the conversation Continued: "Then I would like to thank Mr. Dong for cutting love."

"It's easy to say, the spring night is short, you can do whatever you want, I won't bother you anymore." Mr. Dong hurried away with the young lady in his arms, and before leaving, he took an extra look at Ji Si, his face full of regret.

When the people walked away, Ji Sicai bowed and saluted, "I have seen you
