After the big guy wears the abusive text

It was dangerous for her to think of another person's name at such a time.

means to rely on.

At the same time, in the Duke's Mansion, Ye Youqing just woke up from his sleep, facing the curtained window, to relieve his drowsiness, and then stretched.

The door was opened, and a pair of small hands stretched out in front of her, offering a teacup for rinsing mouth.

"Ci Ke, today..." She casually picked up the teacup, but the words swirled in her mouth and rushed back into her throat.

"Qin Xin?" Ye Youqing was surprised, and put his two long legs off the bed.

"It's me, big girl." Qin Xin pouted and said sullenly.

"Where's Ci Ke?" Ye Youqing asked.

"Ci Ke said he had some things to deal with, so he asked me to take care of you. He also said that you went to bed late yesterday, and you should wake up late today, and asked me to boil the water later." Qin Xin replied.

Something to deal with?What's the matter with Ci Ke? Is it possible...

She always knew that Ci Ke had a secret, but she never asked, anyway, that secret must be of no benefit to herself.

I just took her in for a few days, she thought again.

"It's okay, let her go." Ye Youqing said, put the tea into his mouth, and after washing up, he said, "Today I was going to talk to Agou about opening a branch outside Bianjing. His unique recipe, Qin Xin, you go with me."

"Yes!" Qin Xin suddenly became excited when she heard this, and her round eyes narrowed into slits when she smiled.

Today's weather is not as hot as yesterday, and the sky is very overcast, with black clouds overwhelming the city. It seems that a heavy rain is brewing. Ye Youqing specially asked Qin Xin to bring an umbrella and wear a suit that is not easy to get dirty. Only then did he arrive outside the mansion in a black dress.

Perhaps affected by the weather, the streets today are not very lively. Many vendors did not go out. The wind was strong, and some remnants of flower petals and old leaves from last year were blown down. It is clearly spring, but there is some autumn bleakness.

Facing the strong wind, Ye Youqing almost moved to the door of Jinlingzhai step by step, and plunged in with his hair tangled behind him.

She had thought that this discussion would last longer, but she didn't expect that just as she spoke, Ah Gou quickly went upstairs, took down a whole stack of recipes, and happily placed them in front of Ye Youqing.

"My father said that King Sirong is the savior of our family, and you are the relative of King Sirong, so you are also our benefactor, so no matter what you want, I, Agou, will definitely help you!" The boy with disheveled hair said. He smiled.

Ye Youqing suddenly felt warm in his heart, reached out to rub his messy hair, and thanked him in a low voice.

"Where's Shili? Lazy again?" Ye Youqing looked around, probably because of the weather, and there were only a few people eating in the house.

"Her." Ah Gou's smiling face suddenly collapsed, "Last night I said that she was not allowed to drink, but she somehow found her way into the wine cellar and got very drunk in it. The long-term worker carried her back to the room, and she nearly turned her head off."

Agou said angrily, "No, he's still so drunk that he can't wake up even by shouting."

Ye Youqing sighed long and hard, she is good as a master in every way, but she feels that she has no energy to live, as if life and death are not worth getting drunk for her.

Maybe one day she will be able to see the imperial concubine, and it will be much better.

Ye Youqing ate breakfast slowly at Jinling Zhai, and she didn't leave until Jinling Zhai had more guests and became noisy.

After returning to the Duke's Mansion with Qin Xin, she asked Qin Xin to take care of Zhao Qingrou, and went back to the room by herself, looking around.

Ci Ke hasn't come back yet.

Her heart sank, and at the same time, a little anger welled up, and there was also some worry, which was ignored by her.

After all, he was doing things by her side, so what's the point of leaving like that?

Ye Youqing went into the tidy study with a sullen face, took out Agou's recipes and copied them. If she wanted to open more shops, she would need more than one recipe.

Recipes are very important, and this kind of thing can't be entrusted to people who don't trust them.

At noon, it started to rain outside, and the rushing water hit the roof. The raindrops were connected into one piece, and a curtain was thrown on the eaves, and the scenery outside the house suddenly became blurred.

Ye Youqing was irritated by the noise of the rain, she got up and closed the leaking window, walked to the door, and looked at the rain curtain for a long time, only to feel that the sky and the earth were connected together, and the splashed water was like smoke, filled the entire courtyard.

The inexplicable irritability in his heart became more and more intense. Ye Youqing paced on the porch for a long time, until his boots were wet from the splashing rain, then he sighed heavily, grabbed the umbrella by the door, and walked into the In heavy rain.

If you meet Ci Ke on the road, you must give her a good lesson.Ye Youqing thought angrily.

The rain seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and there was no one on the imperial street, only the carts and horses of some vendors remained. The heavy rain must have come suddenly, and people had no time to push their carts, so they fled in all directions.

Ye Youqing seemed to be the only one left in the whole city. Sometimes she felt like she was walking in a vast ocean, and sometimes she felt like a small boat swaying in the wind and rain.

The long imperial street was almost finished, and the majestic imperial city appeared in front of my eyes. The cornices of several palaces protruded from the rain, mixing with the rolling thunder and lightning in the sky.

Ye Youqing turned his head unconsciously, but stopped suddenly, and saw many haystacks scattered at the end of a long alley beside him, as if they were deliberately pushed down.

She suddenly felt that her heart was about to hit her chest, so she coughed and walked quickly into the dark alley.

The rain was too heavy, and there was a lot of water in the alley, almost up to the ankles. From time to time, some garbage floated along the rainwater. Ye Youqing looked at it intently, but didn't find anything unusual.

But when she passed the haystack that had been soaked into a dark color, she raised her head and glanced up, her brows furrowed, and she saw a small piece of fresh water left under a tile on the top of the wall that would not be washed by the rain. of blood.

Ye Youqing didn't say a word, kicked his toes on the slippery wall, clung to the top of the wall with his hands, and easily rolled over to the opposite side.

She just stepped on a large piece of moss on the ground, and she staggered and almost fell on another pile of haystack, so she cursed secretly, and when she looked back, many footprints had been stepped on that piece of moss.

And it was all slippery.A picture of a group of people slipping and falling here like a relay appeared in Ye Youqing's mind, and he couldn't help but wiped the rainwater from his forehead before he stabilized the umbrella in his hand.

"Ci Ke?" She tentatively said, her voice was not loud, so there was no response.

This place seems to be a courtyard for raising horses, but it has been abandoned for a long time, the ground is covered with sticky moss, and under the baptism of heavy rain, it is green and shiny. Ye Youqing walked around the arch with small steps, and a similarly abandoned house appeared in front of him. , the windows and doors are gone.

There was no one inside, but Ye Youqin suddenly heard a thud, her body tensed up suddenly, and she took a few steps around the room, the scene in front of her was so startled that she almost cried out.

Fortunately, she covered her mouth tightly.

I saw the rainwater on the ground mixed with faint blood, accumulated in some deep pits of different sizes, and there seemed to be some blood left on the wall, but because of the rain, there was not much left.

In a pile of withered yellow mixed with new green weeds, it seems that there is a person lying in it.

The smell in the air was terrible, so his stomach twitched. Ye Youqing turned around quickly and coughed a few times against the wall. Fortunately, the body was dressed in black, so it should not be Ci Ke's.

But this was the first time she had seen this kind of scene in her more than 20 years of life, and the impact it gave was so strong that she felt a chill oozing from the inside out.

For the first time, the cruelty that is different from the modern rule of law society is so intuitively displayed in front of her.

Enduring the feeling of nausea, she walked out from behind the wall, and walked carefully along the weeds behind the house, avoiding the lifeless body, without taking another look.

But she hadn't seen Ci Ke yet, so she couldn't help being even more frightened.

Going around another corner, she finally saw the woman.

Ci Ke was sitting with his back to her, ignoring the dirt on the ground and the pouring rain above his head, his black hair was hanging down behind him, his clothes were stuck to his body, his shoulders were straight and beautiful, she was holding something in her hand .

Ye Youqing took a few deep breaths, moved forward in small steps, and held the umbrella above her head. Unexpectedly, a hole was broken in the umbrella at some point, and the rainwater passed through the hole, pouring water on Ci Ke's head like a pillar.

When Ci Ke noticed her coming, the woman turned around suddenly, and the sharp knife-shaped hairpin in her hand slashed at Ye Youqing's throat. Ye Youqing's pupils dilated suddenly, and he reached out to grab Ci Ke's wrist.

Fortunately, Ci Ke's movements suddenly stopped, only staying within an inch of Ye Youqing's throat.

Her eyes were blood red, with a murderous intent as if she had been forced to the extreme, but after seeing Ye Youqing's face clearly, she quickly put away that expression, turned into a look of fear, and threw away the hairpin in her hand , leaning on the ground to retreat.

Ye Youqing's stiff body suddenly regained its movement. She threw away the broken umbrella, squatted down suddenly, and put her hand on Ci Ke's head to block some of the rainwater for her.

"It's okay." She said softly.

The body of the woman in front of her trembled, and then suddenly approached, two catkins grabbed her skirt, and then the woman's face was pressed against her chest.

The heat flow penetrated the cold clothes and made them into a ball.

------

When Ye Youqing sent people to Jinlingzhai, her mind was still in a daze, and Ci Ke seemed to have been greatly frightened, so she didn't dare to ask more questions.

After sending Ci Ke into the house, Agou served a pot of hot wine and drank several mouthfuls down his throat, only then did he feel his body warm up.

"Yuqing, you change your clothes first, you are always so wet and be careful of the wind and cold." Shili at the side reached out to wipe off the remaining water on Ye Youqing's face, handed over a handkerchief, and shook his head.

"Okay." Ye Youqing nodded.

"After changing the clothes, I'll go see Ci Ke later, she just said she wants to see you." Shi Li shook his head and said, staggered to his feet, covering his drowsy head due to hangover.

"Master, if you drink like this again, you will become fat in the future." Ye Youqing said to her back, but no one answered.

She drank the rest of the wine and walked upstairs slowly, thinking about Ci Ke's expression just now, the killing intent and cruelty made her almost tremble, but she always knew that she couldn't understand Ci Ke.

She forgot to change her clothes, and Ci Ke's door was getting closer and closer. She let out a breath and reached out to knock on the door, but suddenly there was a voice from ten miles behind her. She held a bucket of hot water in her hand, and stopped Ye Youqing from saying: "Let you go in later, she is taking a bath."

Hearing this, Ye Youqing took a few steps back and nodded uncomfortably, but suddenly heard a woman's voice coming from the door, soft and sweet, with a trembling tone.

"Sister Shili, let her in, okay?"
