"Martha." Shili sighed, "Why are you so unscrupulous, your words are vulgar."

Ma quickly shut his mouth, and beckoned the two into the courtyard.

"I've always been a rough person. I don't understand those elegant words. Please don't take it too seriously, Miss Ye." Ma Da laughed, and led the two of them to a locust tree, where wooden tables and chairs were placed. Oily and sticky.

Seeing this, Ma Da stretched out his hand to wipe it off, but smeared the blood on his hand, and could not help but groan, scratching his ear and cheek.

"It doesn't matter." Ye Youqing never sticks to these things, picks up a fallen leaf to wipe off the blood, and sits comfortably.

Seeing this, Ma Da became less restrained, casually tossed the pig's head, stretched out his hand and said, "Young Escort, please."

The three of them sat down, Ma Da took a peek at Ye Youqing, and said with a shy smile, "I thought girls from rich and noble families were spoiled, and I was afraid that I would treat you poorly, but I didn't expect Miss Ye to be different from ordinary nobles."

Ye Youqing smiled.

"You just said that Wei Ya Nei...is it true or not?" Ye Youqing asked, this matter really happened by coincidence, she hadn't done anything yet, why Wei Ya Nei was punished by others.

It's really ruthless to start.

"I, Ma Da, is well-known for being honest in the world, and I will never lie. This matter is not groundless. Many vendors and pedestrians who passed by Yujie this morning saw the scene in their eyes, and scared several girls to tears. " Martha said, patting her strong chest loudly.

"Do you know who did it?" Ye Youqing heard that it was true, and he felt a burst of joy in his heart.

"I've never heard of this, but this Wei Yanei's reputation in the market is not good. Since he is the nephew of the current emperor, he often does things that bully men and women. He must have many enemies. When I was on the street, I was beaten by some enemy."

Ye Youqing listened, his eyes deepened.

It wasn't until Shili coughed that she realized what she was doing here today, so she looked at Shili.

"I haven't introduced it just now. This Martha used to be my father's deputy. He was born with infinite strength and martial arts. His brothers all worked in my family's security agency and were loyal. After my father passed away, the security agency closed. , a few of them secretly followed me to the capital and became butchers."

"In the past, I often helped me." Shili smiled.

"How can we say that we are helping, the old escort is kind to us, and it is our duty to protect the young escort." Ma Da stroked the top of his hair, quite uncomfortable.

"Now that the young escort finally... I feel relieved." Ma laughed honestly.

Suddenly heard a series of heavy footsteps outside, Ye Youqing raised his eyes, and saw two big men coming from outside the courtyard, followed by a girl with the same strong arms.

"Ma Er!" Ma Da greeted in a rough voice, got up and pulled them over, and said to Ye Youqing, "Miss Ye, these are my brothers and sisters, Ma Er, Ma San, and Ma Xiao!"

When Ye Youqing heard the words, he almost couldn't help laughing, thinking that the Ma family named their children, and it was really rash.

"I've seen Miss Ye before." The man called Ma Er clasped his fists and said, compared to the others, he was more elegant, with a square face, square eyebrows, and a neatly trimmed beard. Clean and tidy.

Ma San was dumbfounded, with shiny hair, like a little monk, clasping fists with Ma Er.The remaining girl looked the most shrewd, her face was dark and rough due to rough work, but her eyes were very bright, she held a ox-cutting knife in her hand, and smiled at Ye Youqing.

Seeing a few people standing still and not daring to sit down, Ye Youqing quickly pointed to the bench and smiled softly: "You don't have to be cautious, I am the guest."

Hearing this, the few people just took their seats, Ma Da hurriedly got up, ran to the room to bring some bowls of tea, and placed them carefully in front of Ye Youqing.

Ye Youqing smiled at him gratefully, picked up the tea bowl and drank it, and then Martha beamed with joy, and was so happy that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear.

"Master must have explained to you why I'm looking for you?" Ye Youqing said like gossip.

"Yes, since the Escort Bureau ceased to exist, all my martial arts skills have been reduced to nothing, and I have no use for them. I used to walk in the south for two years to scatter darts, but I was often bullied by the Escort Bureau and officers and soldiers. The money I earned was not enough. In the end, I had to give up and came to this capital to become a butcher, and my younger sister became a blacksmith, selling brute force to make a living." Ma Er said with a long sigh.

"In this way, I will not hide it, and cut straight to the point." Ye Youqing said with a smile, "Now I need manpower from left to right, and those who know martial arts are the best, and the most important thing is that they are worthy of my trust."

"At the same time, I will give you enough monthly silver. When the situation is stable in the future, if you want to marry a wife and have children to live a stable life, I will agree to them one by one."

"The only requirement is that you can't do anything that violates my trust." In the last sentence, Ye Youqing emphasized his tone, as if every word was tied to his heart, and then slowly softened.

"I know that the business of the Escort Bureau is to lick blood with the tip of a knife, but my subordinates also have the same risk, so you should think about it carefully and give me an answer in two days." Ye Youqing said, drinking the tea on the table and drinking it do.

"Don't worry, girl. We brothers and sisters had already figured out where to go when the young escort told us. To tell you the truth, life in the capital is too dark for us now. Not to mention that we can't earn a few coins. He is a grown man, the household tax is extremely heavy, and he can't see his way out, so he might as well follow the girl to save his life." Ma Er opened his mouth and Ma Da Ma San nodded accordingly.

"Miss Ye, don't worry, I was famously loyal when I followed the old bodyguard, and I am no exception now." Ma Xiao's eyes sparkled, "Miss, don't think I'm a woman, but I can swing If I can bear the hammer head of smashing iron, it proves that my strength will never lose to them."

"Please take me in, girl!" Ma Er said roughly, and he was about to stand up and bow, but Ye Youqing quickly held his elbow.

"It doesn't have to be like this." Ye Youqing felt a little relaxed when he saw something, and took out an envelope with a smile, and handed it to Ma Er, "This is your monthly silver, so don't do anything for the next two days." , remember the pattern on the envelope, and those with this pattern in the future will be my instructions."

Ma Er took it with both hands, and after seeing the silver taels, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and his eyebrows in all directions were raised high.

"Thank you, girl!" He said in a trembling voice, and hurriedly handed the envelope to Martha, who was holding it carefully, as if it was hot.

Ye Youqing still remembered the matter of the Wei Yamen in his heart, so he didn't stay any longer, got up in the thanks of several people, left with Shili, and walked quickly through the narrow alley.

"Thank you." Ye Youqing said to Shili.

"Thank you." Shili chuckled and turned a corner, "You should be the one thanking you for taking them in. I've been guilty all these years. If it wasn't for me being a useless person who didn't live up to my expectations and killed my parents, wouldn't I They won't end up in such a situation if they don't enter the Escort Bureau."

"They were not harmed by you, but by him." Ye Youqing corrected her.

Looking up from ten miles, the facial features are full of exotic colors, and there is a momentary trance under the sun.

"Yeah, he did it." Shili murmured.

"Look for other people's reasons when things happen, and you'll feel better." Ye Youqing smiled.

"It doesn't make sense." Shili reached out and tapped on the top of her head.

After some words, Shilifang's decadent expression lightened a lot, and he became free and easy, so he said seriously, "What do you think about the Wei Ya Nei matter?"

Ye Youqing shook her head, she couldn't think of who would write it, but it was a good thing for her.

unless……

At the same time, behind layers of palace walls, in the Imperial Study Room and Manna Hall, the emperor sat at a spacious table, rubbing his brows irritably, while a few palace attendants stood on one side, not daring to vent their atmosphere.

The air in the hall was very oppressive, and the smell of paper and ink was almost suffocating.

"Is the eldest princess going back?" The emperor opened his mouth, breaking the silence in the air.

"Return to Your Majesty, just fainted from crying, and was taken away by the imperial doctor for treatment." The waiter with a long face frowned and replied in a low voice.

"Absurd!" The emperor scolded in a low voice, and threw the book in his hand out of the table, and it landed on the ground with a slap, which made the palace people shudder, "Can you find out who did it?"

"Not yet, I have brought the first shopkeeper who found Wei Ya Nei to interrogate, and I can't ask anything, so I can only tell him to shut up."

"There are so many people passing by, what's the use of telling him to shut up?" the emperor scolded angrily, his thick eyebrows almost twisted into a ball, and the crown of hair on his head shaking, "This kid actually caused such a scandal and tarnished my royal reputation. !"

"Pass down Song Canzheng and Huang Xueshi, and the rest will go down." The emperor ordered after taking a few heavy breaths.

Hearing the words, the long-faced attendant hurriedly called everyone to leave, bowed his body back, and trotted out of the gate, he knew that the emperor was really angry at this time, so he absolutely didn't dare to say more.

After a while, two civil servants came running out of breath, arranging their robes and wiping off their sweat outside the Ganlu Hall before they dared to enter the hall.

There was a lot of trouble early in the morning, and they had expected the emperor to summon them, so they waited at the gate of the palace.

"I have seen His Majesty." The two bowed their heads and bowed, cautious in their words and deeds.

"What do you think about this matter!" The emperor was already calm at this moment, and he couldn't see his emotions. Only the trembling teacup on the table and the increasingly low pressure could show his anger.

"Your Majesty mean...a marriage?" Xueshi Huang's hair was mixed with black and white, and he asked in a low voice as he looked older.

Seeing the emperor nod his head, he continued to speak: "Excuse me, bluntly, the matter of Wei Ya Nei has been spread in Bianjing, and the fact that he lost... has been known to all. That's right. I think it's better to withdraw the order first, and then look for opportunities later."

The emperor looked at him for a while, without saying a word, then looked at Song Shenzheng again.

Song Shenzheng was a little younger, he took a breath, and said: "This matter is just a rumor, the minister just asked the imperial doctor, the situation in the Wei Yamen is not serious, if it is recuperated properly in the future, it can still recover. If it is at this time If you take it back, you will make the rumors true."

The emperor nodded: "It makes sense, continue."

"I know that Your Majesty is afraid of the Ye family girl. From the last redress, it can be seen that this girl has a serious heart, and now she still has a token in her hand. If she doesn't take the token as soon as possible, troubles will inevitably happen in the future."

"But no matter what, she is still a woman. Even if she finds a cavalry, she can't lead troops to rebel. Why should she be so afraid? If she insists on bestowing a marriage, she will leave some excuses and make everyone gossip about the royal family." Xueshi Huang remonstrated.

"If you listen to what Xueshi Huang said, there is only one way, send someone to snatch the token from the little girl's hand." Song Canzheng smirked.

"Ridiculous!" Huang Xue's beard crooked, "How can you say that Liang Guogong is also an important minister of the dynasty. If other courtiers in the court know that the monarch and his ministers have fallen into a rift, what do you want your majesty to do?"

"You see, if this method doesn't work, we can only follow the previous plan. As long as this woman is always in the eyes of the royal family, nothing else will happen." Song Shenzheng still smiled and looked at the emperor who had not spoken.

"Nowadays only Wei Yanei is the right age to get married. The rest are either difficult to control, or have already married wives. The Imperial Army sent by His Majesty to find that team of iron cavalry has not been heard from until now, and they have never returned. It can be seen that if someone wins the iron cavalry It is a threat to our country of Qi." Song Shenzheng continued.

"You..." Xueshi Huang was about to retort, but was interrupted by the emperor.

"Your words are reasonable. I have been restless in sleep lately. It must be related to this matter. I really can't delay." The emperor said, holding his hair crown steady.

"Song Shenzheng thinks, what should I do?" The emperor asked with a smile on his face.

Song Shenzheng glanced at Xueshi Huang, and smiled.

"I believe that we should close everyone's mouths and only say that Wei Yanei was drunk and made an embarrassing incident before Daxie. This disease will not be too late to be cured in the future."
