Ye Youqing heard Ci Ke's voice, and frowned. He wanted to push her away, but when he felt the fear she couldn't hide, he lowered his hands helplessly and looked over the woman's shoulder to the ground.

Under the shroud of the dim light, I saw the tall and tall man sitting down, his brocade robe was covered with mud, his forehead had two bulges, and he was covering his head.

Seeing this scene, Ye Youqing was speechless for a while, thinking that Ke Guo is really powerful.

The soft body was still clinging to him, Ye Youqing lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Let go."

Qin Xin, who was so frightened just now, was also relieved at this moment, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull on Ci Ke, and scolded: "You are rude, don't let go of my girl!"

The woman in her arms froze, as if she had noticed who was coming, she hurriedly pushed Ye Youqing away, leaned her back against a tree trunk, stared at Ye Youqing tightly, like a frightened little animal , showing defensive minions.

It's just that my legs seemed to be weak from fright, and I slid straight against the tree, so I had to escape.

"It's you?" Ci Ke said sarcastically, but her fear was clearly revealed by the changed voice.

Ye Chengfu was dizzy from the beating, and he was still struggling in the grass without getting up. Ye Youqing's tense heartstrings gradually calmed down. She met Zhou Cike's gaze with a calm expression: "How is it?"

The sarcasm in Ci Ke's eyes became stronger: "I beat this apprentice, you want to arrest me?"

Ye Youqing raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the words, wondering what happened before the original owner and Ci Ke could make Ci Ke so hostile and defensive.

"You said he was a disciple, why should I arrest you?" Ye Youqing asked back.

Ci Ke suddenly sneered, she wrapped herself tightly with one hand on the lapel of her clothes, and touched the top of her hair with the other hand, trying to calm her voice: "Who knows what stupid things a woman like you can do."

"You low maidservant!" There was a low shout suddenly, it turned out that Ye Chengfu who was on the ground finally got over his strength, stood up on his knees, and was stumbling forward angrily.

Ci Ke quickly turned around, turned his back to Ye Youqing and retreated, his eyes were red, and a ruthless look surged up, a cold silver light flashed in his hand, Ye Youqing's eyes were slightly opened, he took a step forward, and quickly grasped her wrist.

I saw that Ci Ke had already pulled out a hairpin-shaped sharp knife from the top of his hair, if she didn't stop him, the knife would have pierced straight into Ye Chengfu's chest.

Qin Xin on the side had already turned pale with fright, and stood there dumbfounded. Fortunately, she covered her lips and did not make any sound.

"Ye Youqing!" Ci Ke shouted, his voice trembling, seeing Ye Chengfu about to pinch her neck, Ci Ke closed his eyes almost in despair, and felt a cold light from nowhere with his free hand, towards behind him To stab.

However, to her surprise, at almost the same instant, Ye Youqing reached out to pick up a smaller potted plant, pointed it at Ye Chengfu's ear and smashed it down, only heard a click, followed by a muffled groan. The figure rolled down again with a bang.

This time I was motionless.

The wind swept across the new leaves, and there was silence under the red light of the lantern. Ci Ke let his left hand be clasped, forgetting to struggle, with a look of disbelief on his face.

Ye Youqing actually used potted plants to knock Ye Chengfu unconscious.

"He is the eldest son, and he can make up a lie if he is dizzy, but if he dies, the Duke's House and even the royal family will investigate to the end." Ye Youqing's gentle but indifferent voice came from the back of her head, "Put down the weapon."

Ci Ke clenched his lips, pulled his left hand out of Ye Youqing's palm, and at the same time withdrew the tip of the knife that was only a finger away from Ye Youqing, lowered his head, panting without saying a word.

Ye Youqing looked at the slender figure trembling in front of her eyes, and instinctively told her that this woman was not as vicious as in the book, or maybe she hadn't been tortured so much.

"Why did you help me?" Ci Ke said suddenly.

It turned out to be Ye Youqing, anyone is good, but why is it Ye Youqing...

Ci Ke lowered his eyes and clenched his hands.

"Because I didn't know it was you." Ye Youqing replied truthfully, she patted the dust on her palm, turned around and pulled Qin Xin who was about to cry from fright, and pushed her out of this hidden corner.

Looking back, Ci Ke was still standing there, her body swaying, her face shrouded in shadows, and the wind blew down a few dead leaves from last year, hovering and falling on her shoulders.

Ye Youqing suddenly felt that this scene was surprisingly bleak.

"The medicine in my room was given by you." After hesitating for a while, Ye Youqing finally spoke, his tone was not questioning, but affirmative.

Ci Ke moved his shoulders noncommittally, and then slowly stepped forward, the hem of his skirt dancing with the wind, flowing around the mess on the ground.

"Why." Ye Youqing asked again.

Ci Ke's footsteps paused slightly, and his voice gradually lowered: "It's just some sleepy things."

"You don't want me to be engaged to Qin Wang because you love him?" Ye Youqing asked again.

The so-called vicious female supporting role in the book in front of her was the first uncontrollable variable after she came here. She wanted to find out her intentions, otherwise, it would be unsafe.

Fortunately, all the emotions that Ci Ke is showing now have no harmful elements, especially the small sharp knife parked on the waist just now, if Ci Ke thinks, it will definitely hurt her.

Ci Ke suddenly sneered, and still didn't answer, Ye Youqing didn't think much about it, just took her as the default, after all, this is also the answer in the original book.

Ye Youqing withdrew her gaze, didn't ask any more questions, turned around and was about to leave, but when her sleeves tightened, something held her back.

Ye Youqing turned her head, her eyes fell on the clenched white catkin, and then her eyes moved up to see the woman's plump shoulders and red chin. .

"Come here." As if making up his mind, Ci Ke looked vigilantly at the bewildered Qin Xin, and tugged Ye Youqing's sleeve again.

Ye Youqing stared at her for a while, then leaned over and put his ear to her lips.

The distance between the two suddenly narrowed, so close that Ye Youqing could hear Ci Ke's heartbeat clearly and warmly.

"The matchmaker lied about his birthday." Ci Ke said softly, and then quickly left, the heat in his ears was quickly replaced by Night Breeze.

Ci Ke's expression was a bit complicated, as if she was desperate for helping Ye Youqing, she bit her lips tightly, and suddenly said forcefully: "As a reward for saving me just now. If you are still obsessed with not saying a word, just pretend you didn't hear it." Bar."

After finishing speaking, she picked up the hem of her skirt, turned around and ran out of the dark corner, and soon disappeared.

Only Ye Youqing remained where she was, and because of this sentence, a storm arose in her mind. She stood calmly for a while, and withdrew her suspicious gaze.

"Big, big girl..." Qin Xin on the side finally cried out, and stepped forward with red eyes, "Zhou Cike is not a good person, he has always been against you, you can't..."

Ye Youqing stretched out his hand to hold the girl's shoulder, stopped her from speaking, and then said seriously: "Wipe away the tears."

Hearing this, Qin Xin hurriedly wiped away the frightened tears with her sleeves. She knew in her heart that following the eldest girl, there must be many scenes like this, and she couldn't always be so timid.

Qin Xin secretly raised her eyes to look at Ye Youqing, feeling worried and relieved at the same time, her daughter seemed to have changed a lot, the girls in the past would only cry more than herself when encountering such things.

But just now he knocked Shizi unconscious just by raising his hand, so calm and decisive, really impressive!

So the eyes gradually revered: "Then, if the son wakes up and blames the blame, what should we do?"

"Anyway, no one saw it." Ye Youqing said, looking at the dark sky, his eyes gradually deepened, "It's almost time, let's go."

When the two arrived, the banquet had already begun. The red cloth spread all the way across the rockery covered bridge, and was spread under countless fiery red lanterns. The hall was brightly lit, and the singing girls invited from Jiangnan were singing Wu Nong's soft language.

Because it was a fixed banquet, there were not many people. Instead, servants and servants stood in full rows, all guarding the door. After seeing Ye Youqing, they quickly made way for the door and opened the door. The smell spread quickly in the night.

Only then did Ye Youqing realize that his stomach had been growling for a long time.

"Why did the eldest girl come here? The Duke couldn't find you, and he was almost annoyed!" A woman with little feet rushed out from the hall, grabbed Ye Youqing, dragged her to the door, and pulled Ye Youqing's shoulders to the side people oblique.

Ye Youqing frowned secretly, a servant dared to pull the master like this, which shows how low the original owner's status in the mansion is.

"Mr. Qian! Let go!" Qin Xin hurried forward, pushed the little-footed lady away, and glared at her.

"Miss, don't blame me. This old slave also acts according to the rules. The appointment date is so important. If you miss the auspicious time, you will regret it." The little-footed woman pretended to lower her head and said in a sharp voice.

Ye Youqing squinted at her, remembering her appearance, and then strode into the hall.

Immediately, dozens of eyes glanced at her, each with their own secret thoughts, one of the hottest ones was Qin Wang, who was holding a glass of wine towards Liang Guogong, with a clear smile on his face.

The eyes are determined to win.

Ye Youqing sneered in his heart, walked to the vacant seat beside Liang Guogong and sat down without looking aside, the black lacquered table in front of him was already filled with melons, fruits and dishes, and there was also a box inlaid with jade patterns, which looked very It is luxurious.

Liang Guogong lingered on her for a moment with angry eyes, and then moved away, and the noise in the hall gradually resumed just now.

"Qing'er." A female voice like warm water came, and Su hand squeezed Ye Youqing's cold fingers to warm her up.

Ye Youqing's mind trembled, he quickly raised his head, saw the woman in the dream, and was stunned for a moment.

Zhao Qingrou is not that haggard yet, but her cheeks are still pale. Although her lips are painted with lip balm, they can't hide the black color. Fortunately, those eyes are extremely beautiful, they are opened gently, and Ye Youqing is at ease when she sees them .

"Qing'er, why are you crying?" The woman lovingly wiped around her eyes, "It's just a bit late, so don't delay the auspicious time."

she cried?Ye Youqing stretched out his hand inexplicably, and really caught the teardrops in front of his eyes, and hurriedly took the handkerchief Qin Xin handed over to wipe.

"It's too windy outside." Ye Youqing smiled, guessing that maybe it was the body's natural reaction. When he was wronged, he would cry when he saw his mother.

She took a deep breath, quickly pointed to the long and narrow wooden box on the table, and changed the subject: "What is this?"

Zhao Qingrou paused, then sighed: "Qing'er, why did you forget that this gold hairpin is an old gift, and Qin Wang will insert the gold hairpin for you later, that is, he agreed to marry you, and then he will marry you." Hired."

"After you are hired, you will really leave your mother." Zhao Qingrou said melancholy.

Ye Youqing frowned when he heard the words, thinking that the ancient etiquette is really unfair, and the woman's opinion is of no importance.

She raised her eyes and looked around, and saw Ci Ke standing in the corner at a glance. She still stood out from a room of Yingying and Yanyan, standing behind Qin Wang, her eyelashes drooped, and she couldn't see her expression.

The eyes of the people in the room were more or less full of contempt and curiosity, after all, Ye Youqing's reputation of being obsessed with Qin Wang was well known for his disregard of shame.

She was looking at Ci Ke, but a shadow suddenly fell over her head, and a jade disc with a dragon pattern blocked her view. Then, the jade box on the table was opened, and the gold hairpin was squeezed out with a big hand.

"Qingqing, you are mine from now on, and your heart will never be in vain." The man's drunken voice sounded.

Looking up, Qin Wang couldn't hide his complacency, and was pinching the hairpin and inserting it into Ye Youqing's hair.
