The Villain Becomes The White Moonlight

Du Yan frowned, feeling that things were a bit troublesome, the things on the desk hadn't been packed yet, and the key was that he hadn't finished writing the things he planned to use to win Cheng Yu's trust.

Right now, there is only one line of writing on the notebook, plus the opened password cabinet and the inkstone placed aside, it looks like a theft scene no matter how you look at it.

I don't know if Cheng Yu will come in later, and will immediately order a full search to find out this little thief who dared to break into the warlord's study.

Du Yan imagined what to do next, while waiting for Cheng Yu's arrival.

But what he didn't expect was that after dawn, Du Yan didn't wait for Cheng Yu, and it was the cleaning servant who opened the door and entered.

The servant cleaned the outer room first, and then entered the inner room. When they saw the situation on the desk, the two of them were stunned, and the cleaning tools in their hands almost fell to the ground in fright.

"You, you go over and take a look, is the locker opened?"

One of them took two steps forward, stood on tiptoe to have a look, and then retreated with a sad face.

"It's over, it's over, whoever dared to turn over the warlord's desk, we're all over."

No matter how frightened these two servants were, they could only choose to go out and tell the housekeeper.

Not long after, the housekeeper and the captain of the guard who stayed in the mansion rushed over.

Both of them have been with Cheng Yu for a long time. Knowing Cheng Yu's behavior, they directly sealed off the inner room and did not enter without authorization.

The butler stood outside, looked at the situation inside, and looked a little unhappy.

He thought for a while, and said to the captain of the guard: "We still have to find someone to notify the warlord."

The captain of the guard is a member of the army. He shook his head and said, "You know what the warlord is doing. He won't bring back important official duties, and there is no property stolen outside. It seems that there are important people from the warlord's mansion today, because this Disturb the warlord with something small, I'm afraid it's..."

The housekeeper is the servant of Cheng's family, and he almost watched Cheng Yu grow up, so he naturally knows Cheng Yu better.

Seeing that the security captain was puzzled, he explained: "The things in the password cabinet are more important to the young master than anything in the entire mansion."

The butler looked serious, and continued: "I suggest you send someone to the Governor's Mansion as soon as possible, otherwise when the young master finds out about this matter and didn't report it in time, we will all have nothing to eat."

When the security captain saw this, he no longer hesitated, nodded and said, "I'm going to the Governor's Mansion now."

After the captain of the guard left, the butler didn't leave, but brought people to guard the outside room, and the whole mansion fell into an atmosphere of turmoil.

Du Yan, who caused this incident, was a little dumbfounded in the picture scroll.

He only thought about Chengyu later, whether he would search the whole city and make a fuss like he thought.

At this moment, Du Yan remembered something. When he was sucked into the scroll, he seemed to still be holding the brush in his hand.He scanned the desk and the surrounding ground, but he didn't find the writing brush.

Could it be that the brush was brought into the painting by himself?

It's a pity that Du Yan only has consciousness now, and has no feeling at all, even if he holds a brush in his hand, he can't feel it.

If I can really bring things into the picture scroll, with Cheng Yu's meticulousness, I will definitely find the clues, and things will be much easier by then.

About an hour later, Cheng Yu pushed the door open and entered.

"Cheng Bo, what's going on?"

The housekeeper stood up and explained the previous matter to Cheng Yu in detail.

After Cheng Yu listened, his already unattractive face became more and more gloomy.

He directly said to the adjutant behind him: "Go ask the person on duty yesterday, what happened last night, and let someone break into the study?"

The adjutant took the order and left, while Cheng Yu entered the inner room and stopped in front of the desk.

Cheng Yu saw the notebook spread out on the desktop at a glance, and his face became more and more ugly.

The things recorded in these notebooks are the softest part of Cheng Yu's heart, and someone suddenly found out like this, which gave him an urge to kill.

From Du Yan's perspective, one can see that Cheng Yu's shoulders and back are tense, as if he is barely controlling his anger.

Fortunately, after all, Cheng Yu had been in a high position for a long time, and his control was extremely strong. He stood still and took a few deep breaths to calm down.

Cheng Yu reached out to pick up the notebook, but found that after his last diary entry, there was an extra line of writing.

I am the son Yan.

Cheng Yu's expression changed slightly. Are these words an answer to the last question in his diary?

He pondered for a moment, then said, "Go out first."

The butler led everyone out of the study, while Cheng Yu sat down and studied the line for a long time.

The line of words that suddenly appeared in the diary might be thought by others to be a joke to him, but Cheng Yu became suspicious.

Cheng Yu is a person who has an almost photographic memory and strong observation skills, but when he sees the handwriting he has seen before, he can recognize it at a glance.

The handwriting of the line in front of me is very familiar.

Cheng Yu pondered for a long time, and finally remembered where he had seen the same handwriting.

The Cheng family is a big family, and many things have been passed down for countless generations. There is even a huge library in the clan, which stores many precious ancient books.

Cheng Yu was the manuscript that Cheng Yu saw in the library. Because the manuscript was too old, it was so dilapidated that it was almost impossible to know the complete content. It could only be known that it was related to the etiquette of offering sacrifices to heaven.

However, Cheng Yu remembered those barely legible handwriting, which were exactly the same as this line of mysteriously appearing handwriting.

"Young Master Yan..."

Cheng Yu uttered these three words, but felt a familiar and lingering feeling welling up from the bottom of his heart, as if he had called someone thousands of times.

He closed the notebook, looked up and saw the inkstone on the desk and the vacant space on the pen holder.

On the pen holder, a Langhao pen is missing.

Cheng Yu looked around, only to find that the Langhao brush had fallen under the picture scroll brought out from the tomb.

He was slightly taken aback, the picture scroll was placed in the back of the study, some distance away from the desk, and not near the window.

How did this sum fall in this place?

Cheng Yu picked up the brush, then looked up at the scroll carefully.

With just one glance, Cheng Yu's expression changed dramatically.

How is this going!Cheng Yu looked at the picture scroll every day, and remembered every detail of the people in the picture, even every wrinkle on the clothes.

Now the clothing of the person in the painting has changed.On her sleeve, a row of ink dots appeared, judging from the shape, it seemed to be caused by a brush falling on it and then rolling off.

Cheng Yu looked at the writing brush that had fallen under the scroll, and fell into deep thought.

He has a certain amount of research on ancient paintings, and there is a big difference between old ink stains and newly dyed ink stains.

The ink stains on the sleeves of the person in the painting have been there for a long time, and they were not painted on last night.Instead, it seems that it was originally stained on the sleeves and then painted into the painting.

Cheng Yu suddenly remembered the somewhat fragrant but terrifyingly real dream last night. He stared at the picture scroll for a while, and finally said something in a low voice.

"is it you?"

Cheng Yu stayed in the study for an entire hour, but after searching carefully, he couldn't find any trace of someone sneaking in, which made him even more suspicious.

At this time, the adjutant just came back to report.

Cheng Yu asked, "How is it?"

The adjutant said: "The subordinates asked the people who stood guard and patrolled yesterday, and found nothing unusual. The confessions were correct. According to Yishu's analysis, it is almost impossible to sneak in from the outside. Perhaps the possibility of internal thieves can be considered. don't want?"

The adjutant didn't finish his sentence, but the expression on his face showed the meaning behind his words.

Cheng Yu waved his hand and said, "Not for now."

After the adjutant left, Cheng Yu called the housekeeper over again.

He said to the housekeeper, "Cheng Bo, can I trouble you to do something for me?"

The housekeeper nodded and said, "Young master, just give orders."

Cheng Yu raised his hand and handed the letter he had just written on the table to the butler, and said, "Please go to the clan to help me get some things, and bring the letter to uncle, he knows."

After explaining everything, Cheng Yu sat alone at the desk for a long time.

When night fell, Cheng Yu picked up a pen and began to write in the diary.

Du Yan, who was staying in the painting, was very concerned about what Cheng Yu wrote, but from Du Yan's perspective, he couldn't see the diary at all.

He always felt that Cheng Yu seemed to be deliberately covering up, preventing him from seeing any words.

Du Yan tried in vain for a while, but decided to give up, anyway, he could always see it.The reason is simple. When Cheng Yu locked the diary back, he didn't change the password at all.

However, for the next few days, Du Yan couldn't get out of the scroll.

He was puzzled in his heart, could it be that it was restricted by the rules of the world, because he exposed his identity in the diary without authorization, so he could no longer get out of the picture scroll in this way.

What's even stranger is that no one has been in the study since that day, including Cheng Yu.

It was not until three days later that Cheng Yu appeared in the study again. He still did not enter the inner room, but met the housekeeper who had rushed back from his hometown in the outer room.

Although Du Yan couldn't see Cheng Yu's face from that angle, his conversation with the housekeeper completely resolved the doubts he had these days.

After the housekeeper handed the sandalwood box to Cheng Yu, he said with some concern, "Master, you don't look well."

Cheng Yu seemed anxious to look at the contents of the box, and said perfunctorily, "It's nothing."

After all, the housekeeper watched Cheng Yu grow up, and he was not as afraid of Cheng Yu as others.He continued to persuade: "I heard from the people below that you haven't had a good rest these days, and you have been guarding outside the study to catch that little thief?"

Hearing this, Du Yan suddenly realized.No wonder he couldn't come out of the painting these days, it turned out that Cheng Yu didn't sleep well at all.

If you don't sleep well, you won't have dreams, and if you don't dream, Du Yan won't be able to get out.

He just felt that it was a bit ironic, the current situation of the two of them was really comparable to that of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, no, maybe even worse than that of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

Right now, it's better for Cheng Yu to confirm his existence, otherwise, Cheng Yu will have to drive himself out of his insanity.

Fortunately, the housekeeper was very reliable. Under his persuasion, Cheng Yu finally agreed to go back to the room to have a good rest, but when he left, he took the diary out of the locker and took it away.

That night, Du Yan finally came out of the scroll.

He didn't delay much, and went straight to the next door.

The diary was placed next to Cheng Yu's pillow, which was convenient for Du Yan.

He put one hand on Cheng Yu's, and flipped through the diary with the other.

Seeing what Cheng Yu said above, Du Yan was slightly taken aback.

"Prince Yan? But in my dream, you are the eldest princess Yan."

"..."

Du Yan was silent for a moment, then picked up the pen he brought from the study and began to write.

"If you keep dreaming about marrying the eldest princess, you will know that I am the young master Yan. If you want to clear up the doubts in your heart, don't stay outside the study every day..."

Du Yan did not directly tell Cheng Yu that he would be able to come out of the painting when he was dreaming, because human subconsciousness is very strange. If Cheng Yu deliberately wanted to dream of Du Yan, he would not be able to do so.

In order to prevent such accidents from happening, Du Yan decided to proceed step by step and be cautious.
