My son, he used poison to subdue the world

Knowing that Yun Shu didn't want to talk, Ye Jiushu lowered his eyes and didn't ask any further, but just handed Yun Shu the candied haws in his hand.

"This candied haws is quite sweet, try it."

"Sweet? How sweet can it be?"

Seeing Ye Jiushu himself eating a bunch, Yun Shu bit off the second piece of the bunch of candied haws in Ye Jiushu's hand, regardless of whether it was on the street or the people passing by on the street, squinting. He raised his eyes.

"It looks really sweet, Jiushu's, it's really sweet."

"Ashu...don't do this."

Ye Jiushu was taken aback for a moment, but when he came back to his senses, inexplicable emotions surged in his eyes, but before Yun Shu could see clearly, those emotions were suppressed.

"I'm not wrong, yours is indeed sweeter."

Yun Shu pursed his lips and smiled, and put his hand on Ye Jiushu's shoulder.

It's just that Ye Jiushu is taller than him, and this kind of action made him feel a little tired, so he took his hand back after walking a few steps.

"Jiu Shu, Jiu Shu, why do you think you are so tall?"

Yun Shu shook his head, "I remember that we are about the same age, but you are so much taller than me, it's really unfair."

He didn't care about it before, or Yun Shu never paid attention to it before.

But today I realized that this person is so much taller than me, and there is an inexplicable strange emotion in my heart.

Ye Jiushu brought his candied haws to this man's mouth, and said softly, "Eat more, maybe you can grow taller."

With the emotion in his heart, Yun Shu bit off the remaining hawthorn.

In fact, the candied haws really can't be said to be very sweet, and even the sourness overwhelms the sweetness.

But Yun Shu looked at the people beside him, and his mood improved a lot. When he was in a good mood, even the candied haws felt very sweet.

"The first two people who bought me candied haws died ten years ago, Jiu Shu is the third one, you have to be careful—"

Yun Shu was joking, and Ye Jiushu also knew that this person must be in a good mood, otherwise he wouldn't be able to say such a joke.

"Then I have to buy more for you in the future. If anyone offends me, I will let him come to you with candied haws."

Ye Jiushu continued to laugh, and the two of them laughed enough before Yun Shu spoke again, "Let's go, we must go to the capital of Xiluan as soon as possible, deal with that little empress, and then come back to get the things."

"Empress Xiluan has no grievances or enmity with us. What kind of enmity is there with Jiutian Pavilion? They will let you go if they don't do it themselves."

Ye Jiushu frowned, as if dissatisfied and puzzled by Jiutian Pavilion's behavior.

Yun Shu didn't answer, Ye Jiushu followed him to retrieve the carriage, the sky was getting dark gradually.

There were not many people on the street, only those in twos and threes were packing their things to go home.

Yun Shu turned over and got into the carriage, reached out to Ye Jiushu, and pulled him up to sit with him.

"Since you are in such a hurry, why do you have to stay on the street for so long?"

It would be fine if Yun Shu needed to prepare something, but he was obviously just wandering in the street and bought a lot of food and two sets of clothes.

I didn't say that I was in a hurry when I was shopping, but now I am in a hurry.

"There were too many people on the street just now, I was afraid of bumping into them."

"Is that why Ah Shu doesn't believe me? How dare you use such words to fool me."

Ye Jiushu smiled helplessly and shook his head, driving the carriage.

Yun Shu spread his hands and picked up a piece of pastry he bought just now, "I don't care if those people were sent by the little empress or not, but I have to get rid of them."

The difference between him taking the initiative to find the empress and being "invited" by those people is not a little bit.

One is to kill and the other is to save lives.

He didn't want to have completely exposed himself to the eyes of the national teacher before arriving at the capital of Xiluan.

Ye Jiushu was slightly stunned, "The people you mentioned are the owner of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, the shopkeeper of the clothing store, the beggar with a broken leg on the street, and the one with candied haws..."

"Jiu Shu is really smart, as expected of you, I just mentioned a word, and you can guess who they are."

Yun Shu frowned and narrowed his eyes with a smile, Ye Jiushu couldn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly.

The person beside him picked up a piece of pastry and handed it to his mouth, "Here is a reward for you."

Ye Jiushu's eyes dimmed, and he swallowed the somewhat sweet pastry, but accidentally touched the boy's fingertips.

Yun Shu's fingertips trembled slightly, and he took it back.

Ye Jiushu acted as if nothing had happened, and said, "After all, you only met these people today, so it's not difficult to guess."

Yun Shu is covered in poison, as long as he thinks, even if that person just passes him by, he can still pour the poison on the other person without anyone noticing.

Not to mention those few people he still met today.

Yun Shu stretched his waist and let out a comfortable sigh, "We can leave with peace of mind after dealing with the little tail, Jiu Shu, you really can't go back now."

Yun Shu glanced back.

It was dark, and when the time came, the gates of the city were closed.

It was impossible for him to wait here until dawn the next day before sending Ye Jiushu back, and Ye Jiushu could only follow him to the next city at night.

The whip in Ye Jiushu's hand fell on the horse's back again, "Even if I go back, I won't go back, Ah Shu, I..."

The carriage speeded up, Ye Jiushu's voice weakened again, Yun Shu couldn't hear clearly, "What did you say?"

Ye Jiushu shook his head, "I didn't say anything, just let you sit still."
