The first work of the imperial prison

I don't know if you can do it or not.

Following Ye Baiting's words, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became ambiguous, and there was a sudden silence, reflecting the wind and birds chirping outside the window, as if everything had changed in an instant.

Qiu Yiqing squinted her eyes, and leaned forward to bully her: "What did you say?"

Ye Baiting is such a smart person, he realized the danger in an instant, this man's eyes are wrong, don't prove it himself in the next moment!

"I was just thinking about the incongruities on Jade Bird!" He straightened his expression, neither flirting nor flirting, and quickly returned to business, "Did you notice that when talking about Li Xiaoliang, Gan Ha's expression was a little off?"

Qiu Yiqing didn't speak, just stared at him.

Ye Baiting was flustered by being stared at, took a step back, and emphasized the business: "...you must have found out."

The spring is bright outside the window, Xiao Zuo looks very beautiful standing in the sun, his brows and eyes are clear and clean, his skin is as smooth as jade, his eyes are full of his reflection, a little vigilant and a little guilty.

He obviously had the guts to speak provocatively, but when he turned his head, he panicked again, thinking that people would forget about it if he pulled a big banner?She was still very delicate, and her eyes were wet, like drizzle sprinkled on the lake, she was wronged, as if she had been bullied severely by someone.

Qiu Yiqing's eyes darkened for a moment, she turned around and lifted her robe, and sat beside the kang: "Let's talk."

Ye Baiting understands this look - I will let you off this time.

He immediately relaxed, rubbed his itchy eyes that were not at the right angle and were stimulated by the sun, and sat down at the table: "The last time we asked, the blue bird was very uncooperative, the name given was fake, and the content of what he said was also a lie A series of articles, the past, experience, preferences, almost none of them answered truthfully. We had to analyze his expressions and intentions very carefully, and compare the different information in his words to judge the degree of authenticity. I also mentioned Li Xiaoliang at the time. His expression was a little bit 'angry with embarrassment', but it was obviously acting, it wasn't like that..."

"I felt a little inconsistent at the time, but I couldn't figure out the reason. I tried it again this time, and I suddenly felt that his behavior... seemed to be unfamiliar with this person, but he was a member of an organization. , why are you unfamiliar? Li Xiaoliang is not young, he doesn't look like a newcomer."

Jin Yiwei kept a strict eye on them, and it was impossible for these two people to have a chance to contact, unless the death itself was a message, but in this case, there was no evidence to show that it had anything to do with Li Xiaoliang's appearance.

"I was wondering, is it possible... that this organization is not monolithic?"

Ye Baiting looked at Qiu Yiqing, his eyes were full of sunshine, very bright, and seemed to be shining: "After so many years, could it be that the people inside have split up and have other ambitions, or maybe we took the wrong direction at first, this Li Xiao Liang is not from Qingniao at all, but a spy planted by the Nine Kings Uncle Ba Lejin, no matter looking for Qingniao or doing other things, it is all to find the clues of the Eighth Prince, and kill him after he finds it?"

There was no trace of nervousness on Qiu Suqing's face, and he was calm and calm as always: "Isn't it just right?"

Ye Baiting: "Huh?"

Qiu Xunqing: "It happens to catch them all in one go."

Ye Baiting: ...

It has to be said that Kuang is still commanding madness. Any predicament or crisis, which obviously seems to be a very difficult trouble, is an opportunity for him.

"Open your mouth."

"what?"

Ye Baiting was thinking about how to deal with it later, at least keeping an eye on it was something that must be done, he didn't pay attention to what Qiu Xunqing was going to do, he opened his mouth obediently, and was stuffed with a small thing.

It is candied green plum.

Probably in order to preserve it for a longer time, a lot of sugar is put in when pickling, it is cool and sweet, and almost all the sour taste can be neutralized, leaving only a refreshing breath, chewing a few more times, only a slight sour taste is revealed, not heavy , but it can hook people's teeth and cheeks to produce fluid, and the aftertaste is lingering.

Qiu Yiqing handed another glass of water to his lips: "Drink water."

Ye Baiting drank it obediently, only to realize that his mouth was a bit dry, did he talk too much just now?

But this plum is really delicious, where did it come from?

Qiu Yiqing pushed the small clay pot in front of him, seemingly casually: "The cook at home makes it, no one likes to eat it, and if we don't solve it, it will be destroyed."

"What a delicious food! You are so reckless!"

Ye Baiting immediately held the small clay pot in front of her, stretched out her hand and put one into her mouth, it was so sweet that her eyes almost narrowed, it was delicious!

"Thank you!" He looked at the person who brought Qingmei with gratitude, and found something different.

The two of them are very close now, and he can clearly see the light and black under the blue eyes of hatred.

"Aren't you sleeping?"

Ye Baiting frowned.Usually, I didn't pay much attention, because this man is always full of energy, and he is very aggressive in everything he does. If there is any accident, he can be seen rushing to the front line. It seems that there is no upper limit of physical strength, and he can always maintain the best working condition.

Ye Baiting has seen the soldiers of Jinyiwei who are paralyzed below, and Shen Jianglei who can fall down and sleep on the spot. He has never seen Qiu Yiqing who is so tired that he can't hold on. , Even if his body is covered in dust and mist, and the blade is soaked in blood, to him, it is not ugly, ugly, it is a medal, which makes him more majestic and masculine, full of masculinity.

But the dark circles under his eyes proved that he was still tired and needed to rest and sleep.

Ye Baiting put on a straight face, and taught her a lesson: "You know it's wrong to do this? A good body is the foundation of work. It doesn't matter if you get tired once or twice. If things go on like this, it becomes a habit, and it won't be easy to change in the future! "

Qiu Suiqing: ...

Is it because I felt a little embarrassed just now, and I couldn't show myself when I dragged others together?

Ye Baiting was looked at by him as a little vain, coughed, and said solemnly: "...In short, you are the commander, the Beizhen Fusi supports the Tianzhu stone, and it can't be crooked at all. We all point to you to eat, you have to be Take care."

Qiu Yiqing: "Care me?"

Ye Baiting had reflected on it just now, and felt that he hadn't performed well. He still had a green plum in his mouth, which didn't prevent him from puffing up his face and narrowing his eyes: "Why, can't you?"

He actually admitted it directly, because he cared about you, how about it!What is our relationship now, I don't care about you!

Qiu Yiqing raised his eyebrows and remained silent for a while.

Seeing this man's deep eyes, Ye Baiting slowly slid down from his face, lips, to his hands, and finally to the small clay pot in his hand... He became very vigilant and hugged the small clay pot tighter: " What do you want to do?"

It's okay if he doesn't protect you so much, but when he was so nervous, Qiu Xunqing suddenly wanted to grab it: "It's so delicious?"

Ye Baiting hugged the small clay pot tightly: "...a man, you can't take back what you give away!"

Qiu Xunqing: "Try one, is it okay?"

Ye Baiting paused: "You... haven't eaten?"

Qiu Xunqing: "Only this jar, it will spoil the taste when opened."

Ye Baiting: "Then you still say that the cook made it casually, no one likes it, and if you don't solve it, it will be destroyed?"

Qiu Xunqing was actually very stable, and she didn't feel embarrassed when she was exposed. She even leaned forward a little, and said in a low voice, "I chose it for you, do you like it?"

Ye Baiting couldn't take it anymore, this bastard made a foul!You are holding on to your temper and walking all the way to the dark!

It's so pitiful to say that it's a bit too much for someone to send something without trying it after he finally found it. If he is still reluctant to share it...

Ye Baiting took out a green plum and handed it to Qiu Yiqing's mouth: "Then you can only eat one."

"Why?"

"You don't like sweets." Just to compete with him!

Qiu Yiqing grabbed the wrist that was leaning over, and the tip of her tongue swept away Qingmei.

Ye Baiting trembled a bit, and she could still feel the warm and slightly moist touch with her fingertips.

Qiu Yiqing clearly knew what he had done, but he beat him up and put on a show: "It's just eating your food, so reluctant?"

Ye Baiting: ...

Is this something to be reluctant to part with?Obviously something is wrong with you!

Qiu Yiqing didn't let go of Xiao Wu Zuo's hand, his thumb lightly brushed the skin on the inner side of the other's wrist, closed his eyes and sighed: "It's a pity."

Ye Baiting: "Huh?"

Qiu Xunqing: "I have something to arrange later, I have to leave right away."

"Isn't it normal for you to be busy? What's the pity," Ye Baiting waved his hand generously to say goodbye, "Just go, the case is closed, and I don't need you here for the time being. I feel a little short these two days, so I need to sleep well. Just sleep, I won’t get up until noon tomorrow, if you come back, don’t bother me.”

Qiu Suiqing: ...

Standing up and about to leave, seeing the little girl eating green plums so beautifully, she felt a little flustered, so she came back and stroked his head: "Little heartless."

Ye Baiting told him to stroke his hair and leaned back, blinked, and tilted his head very conscientiously: "Commander, walk slowly?"

Qiu Yiqing left, with a smile in his eyes that no one else could detect.

Walking out of the yard, before reaching the gate, I saw Shen Jiang and the kitchen staff bragging, struggling with two snack boxes.

"What are you doing?" The commander would occasionally change it sympathetically, especially when waiting for the horse to come over.

Shen Jiang's eyes brightened: "Commander! It's just right, please help me find out, which is better, the mung bean cake or the red bean cake, I will take it back and give it to my wife to taste!"

Qiu Yiqing: "My wife is a slave."

Shen Jiang: ...

Speak as you speak, don't want to give pointers if you don't want to give pointers, what kind of personal attacks are you doing!No no, I'm Baihu, I'm not angry, you're just jealous that I have a wife and you don't!

Just when Xuan Guang came, Qiu Yiqing got on his horse and said, "Take them all away, Beizhen Fusi still doesn't lack these things."

Shen Jiang looked at the ass of the horse who was away in an instant, and then looked at the two boxes of snacks. Aren't they afraid of waste? The daughter-in-law can't finish it all by herself... But it doesn't matter, the commander said that he could take away all of them. Jin Yiwei benefits!

Ye Baiting is also very ruthless to himself when he is working, he never complains about hard work, he is good at staying up late, once the work is over, he is also very good at rewarding himself, eating, drinking, drinking and sleeping late, there is nothing he is not good at.

This sleep was very long, quite recovering from fatigue. When Ye Baiting woke up, he saw that the sun was too bright outside the window, and he was stunned. He really slept through the whole morning?

It's not bad, spring is warm and flowers are blooming, everything is growing, it's time to relax, he stretched lazily, got up lazily, washed lazily, had a meal lazily, moved a rattan chair and put it on the table. Put the table out and put it under the sun, with tea on the table, books in your hand, and warm sun above your head, as comfortable as you want.

The case was successfully completed, and the follow-up issues need to be unfolded slowly, there is no rush, it is rare to have a small vacation, Shen Jiang couldn't hold it back, and came to Ye Baiting when he saw the opportunity: "Master, go out for a stroll?"

"Don't go."

Ye Baiting was lazily nestled on the wicker chair, as if he had no bones, and he was very sloppy. He was the only one in Fusi, Beizhen. He enjoyed this state very much, and he didn't want to move his nest at all. When he came over, he just sat there and threw the little sepak takraw ball to play with the dog, without moving at all.

But people are different, this kind of lazy posture may be decadent and ugly when done by others, but the young master is different, even if he is paralyzed, he has a thin waist and white hands, light gauze and gorgeous clothes, a delicate young man.

Shen Jiang coaxed: "It's so boring to sit here, the yard is bare and there is no view, many flowers are blooming outside, the petals are like rain when the wind blows, it's so beautiful!"

Ye Baiting lost interest: "Oh."

Shen Jiang continued his efforts: "The wine is also good at this time. It's the time to appreciate spring. All the restaurants have taken out their signboards. There is a moat that is very beautiful. There is a restaurant next to it. Sitting by the window on the third floor and looking out, Jiang The scenery against the green willows and white flowers is beautiful!"

Ye Baiting was still unmoved: "Oh."

Shen Jiang rolled his eyes: "Several restaurants in that area are quite famous, and the dishes are very good. Let me think about it. What kind of braised pigeons, braised ducks in sauce, fried stewed mandarin ducks, fried bamboo shoots with three delicacies, green shrimps, and fishes?" Dry, clear juice ball soup..."

This list of dish names was so effective that Ye Baiting sat up straight in an instant: "Delicious?"

"That's right, they are all the master's specialty dishes, they are delicious!" Shen Jiang nodded heavily, adding by the way, "Then Yanbailou still has apricot blossom wine that has been buried for three years. Sold in the building, the fragrance is rich, the taste is long, the wine and food are accompanied by the river view, it is elegant and cozy, after passing this village, there is no such shop, today I am the host, the young master must show you face!"

Just as Ye Baiting thought about it, he hesitated again, and glanced to the side: "Commander..."

Shen Jiang waved his hand: "It's okay, I asked for instructions on this kind of thing earlier, and the commander also nodded. According to the accumulated credits of the young master, he has long been a member of our Jinyiwei. There is no need to restrict his whereabouts. Just be careful when you go out." Come on, bring more people, so that the outsiders won't be villainous and want to harm us, don't worry, I'm ready, if something happens, the commander will carry it!"

Ye Baiting: ...

Shouldn't you carry it?

Seeing that his expression was loose, Shen Jiang looked around, leaned over, and whispered the truth: "Actually... I have something to do here, and I want to ask the young master for help."

Ye Baiting: "Huh?"

"This," Shen Jiang rubbed his hands, an old man, still a little embarrassed, "in a few days, it will be my daughter-in-law's birthday, and I prepared gifts in previous years, but I was beaten every time. This year, I finally got promoted. I also have a lot of money here, and I want to give a gift that is not shameful or beaten, but I don't know what to buy, so I want to ask the young master to help me think..."

Ye Baiting asked: "What did you plan to give?"

Shen Jiang: "A basket of needles and threads?"

Ye Baiting: ...

Shen Jiang didn't think he was wrong, but also felt that he was very considerate: "This woman doesn't know what kind of temper she is, she is very sad, and it's not that there are no servants at home, she insists on making clothes for me by herself, the clothes I wear outside can't do it, I just care about the underwear, I have underwear here, which is close-fitting... Cough, she has to make all the dirty clothes and trousers by herself, and she is not allowed to wear those made by others. She is not very good at this, and the poking with her fingers makes people feel distressed. Yes, almost every few days I heard her complain that the needle and thread are not working well, and I gave her a basket of good needle and thread, she must be very happy."

Congratulations you bastard.

Ye Baiting: "Not good, change it."

Shen Jiang still felt that she was right: "Why is it bad, don't I feel sorry for her?"

Ye Baiting rolled his eyes at him: "The way Mrs. Zun makes you clothes is the way she loves you. The way you love her is to let her continue to work. The more you do, the better?"

Shen Jiang shook her head vigorously: "That can't be done, I just want her to be well, but she doesn't want to, does she have to do it by herself?"

"Then if she needs needle and thread, she will buy it herself, and you don't need to give it as a gift." Ye Baiting felt confused with the silly Baihu, so she simply didn't explain, "What about the others? There is no alternative?"

Shen Jiang punched his palm: "Yes! I can find him a good accountant! Although she can settle accounts, she hates monthly accounts the most. If you give her a good husband, she won't have to suffer that kind of crime." gone?"

Ye Baiting couldn't bear it a bit: "Your Madam is celebrating her birthday, will you give her a man?"

Shen Jiang fell silent for a moment: "It seems... not very suitable?"

"Of course it's not appropriate!" Ye Baiting felt that she couldn't keep up with Shen Jiang's brain circuit, and she didn't usually handle cases like this... Although she was a little stupid, at least the general logic was clear. No matter how troublesome the account is, no matter how much you don't want to do it, it's your own money, don't stare at it, and hand it over to others, don't you worry?

Shen Jiang thought for a long time this time, and he was not as straightforward as the previous two times. He hesitated: "Then how about I give her two Taihu stones? The previous one was cracked for some reason. She said during the New Year After a few bad mouths, I will give you two yuan..."

This time the young master didn't open his mouth, Shen Jiang knew from the young master's face that this proposal was not a good idea, so he worked hard carefully: "Then how about I make the shape of the stone look better?"

What shape looks good, love your shape?

Ye Baiting looked at Shen Jiang with pity: "You have not been beaten to death yet, Mrs. Zun is really kind-hearted."

Shen Jiang: ...

"Then I-"

"Shut up quickly," Ye Baiting said, "I can't think of romance, even if it's the most ordinary thing?"

Shen Jiang: "Ordinary?"

Ye Baiting reminded: "For example, clothes and jewelry..."

Shen Jiang immediately shook her head: "It's probably not good. She has the most of these things, and she has to buy them every time she goes to the street. The ones in the closet can't be worn at all. Wouldn't it be a waste for me to give them away?"

Ye Baiting sneered back directly, and looked at him like a fool: "It's because I like it that I often buy it and give it as a gift. Shouldn't I just do what I like?"

Shen Jiang was stunned for a moment, and finally understood the logic, as if... right?

Ye Baiting had a lot of meaning: "Besides, how do you know that the gift you gave will definitely not be used by Mrs. Madam, and wasted?"

"I really know this," Shen Jiang felt that he had the right to speak, "I gave her off before, but she was useless."

"What did you send?"

"Hanzi, mahogany hairpin, we were not married at that time, and I was a little poor, so I didn't know what to give. I heard that she always had nightmares at night, dreaming about the little ghost of the predecessor, so I wanted to give her a peach tree to ward off evil spirits. I sculpted it myself, and did it very carefully..."

"Wait, what did you carve?"

"A little pig."

Ye Baiting: ...

"You carved a pig on the hairpin you gave your sweetheart?"

Shen Jiang felt that she was right at all, and she was very smart: "That's right, mine all have meanings. Her zodiac sign is a pig, and her ancestors were pig killers!"

"You can shut up."

Ye Baiting stood up from the rattan chair, and walked out first: "If you want to get through this year well, don't get beaten, listen to me."

Shen Jiang quickly turned around and followed: "Okay!"

The two of them went shopping, the entire street, almost every cloth store, clothing store, jewelry store, saw a lot of things, asked a lot of questions, but finally bought nothing, settled in a tea house.

Shen Jiang was a little confused: "Why not... I have money! I brought all my private money with me today!"

Ye Baiting rolled his eyes at him: "What is your wife's birthday?"

Shen Jiang: "The eighth day of March."

Ye Baiting: "Isn't there still time? Go find a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and I say, you write...no, you draw."

Shen Jiang went in without knowing it, but he got used to listening to the young master, so he went to prepare immediately and came back soon.

Ye Baiting slowly opened his mouth: "Pleated long skirts are the most popular in Beijing today, but the most sought-after is a fish-scale pleated skirt. The pleats are connected in series with silk threads, unfolding like fish-scale phoenix tails. The cost is a bit high, but Very beautiful, you have seen a similar style just now, now draw it down, and adjust the details according to what I said... For example, the color, you must pay special attention to that kind of micro-powder orange, the orange is lighter, and the pink is two points darker, yes, That's it……"

He only lit Shen Jiang, and made a color similar to modern nude: "Looking at your usual outfits, Mrs. Sister-in-law should be very sensitive to colors. You also remember the hairpin we mentioned earlier. It should be shaped like peach blossoms. The color should also be pink, to match this dress, don't use gold, you can use jade, or tourmaline, agate, as long as it is not too bright, slightly pink, my wife should like it."

While painting, Shen Jiang asked, "How does the young master know?"

Ye Baiting glanced at him lightly: "You have shown off your sister-in-law's beauty in front of people more than once, saying that when you were young, you wore a pink dress, which no one can compare to, and now it is the same. Although you are not very good at aesthetics, your eyes are not white. It can be seen that Mrs. Sister-in-law looks good in pink, her skin tone should be fair, and orange-based dark colors are not suitable for her. Cooler and lighter tones are more suitable for her, but she is now considering her age, so it is not easy to wear She is so pink and tender, she must be very happy to help her solve this problem properly; she was born in March, peach blossoms, how can she not like peach blossoms? Even the inconspicuous places on your clothes, she will occasionally embroider two flowers Peach petals, not to mention things you use yourself?"

"That's right, it makes sense!"

While admiring Shen Jiang, he couldn't help but smirk when he thought about how these things would look on his daughter-in-law.

Ye Baiting snorted: "My wife slave."

Seeing that Shen Jiang's painting is almost done, he can leave immediately, and he said again: "The lion rolling hydrangea ball jade ruler in that shop, I want it, and buy it for me by the way."

Shen Jiang: "Huh?"

Ye Baiting's eyes were instantly dangerous: "Thank you fee, don't you give it?"

Of course, Shen Jiang would not rely on the thank-you fee. If it is a good deal, it should be... He reminded very vaguely: "Your words..."

Crawling like a little meat dog, I don't practice too often, and I can still use things like a ruler?

"I'll buy it if I tell you, what's the point?"

Ye Baiting drove the people away without blushing, thinking to himself, he doesn't need it, but those pair of rulers are really cute, Qiu Xunqing can use them, how suitable they are for him!

After walking all the way, my feet hurt, and I was thinking about taking a good rest and drinking tea, when suddenly there was a crisp sound under my feet, it was a fan that fell from the second floor.

This teahouse is decorated elegantly and in a good style, with a high hanging in the middle. On the second floor, there is a row of private rooms by the window, and a row of elegant seats on the outside by the railing. It faces the first floor. If there is a storyteller in the teahouse, you can see it more clearly. Rewarding is more convenient.

Originally, Shen Jiang wanted to invite the young master to go upstairs, but Ye Baiting was too tired to go up the stairs by himself, so he found a random seat and sat down.

Who would want to be almost hit?

Ye Baiting picked up the fan, and was about to ask Xiao Er to send it up, when the upstairs guest came down by himself: "Sorry, my hand slipped for a while, and disturbed this young master, how about a cup of hot tea, as a gift?"

The other party looked very young, with sculpted eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a natural smile, wearing a moon-white round-neck robe, a crown jade pendant, walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger, with a humble and elegant posture, and looked very polite, there was nothing wrong with it.

But Ye Baiting just felt something was wrong.

It's not right.
