Wait a minute, heroine

At noon, civil and military courtiers filed out of Chengtianmen.

On the streets where people were coming and going, carriages with horses and horses were walking along the street, with black government guards following behind them, and the doors and windows of the carriages were closed.

In the large carriage, Ye Jingtang stood with his back straight and his arms spread out.

On the small table beside him, there is a black robe embroidered with a golden python dragon, and a belt inlaid with python patterns and gold jade. The python robe has similar patterns to the stupid fat-headed dragon python robe, but the men's style is more loose and elegant.

Dongfang Liren and the two accompanying maids took off the official uniform of Ye Jingtang, put on the python robe, then asked him to sit down, carefully combed his hair and tied it with a golden crown.

Speaking of it, Ye Jingtang has not yet reached the age of crowning, and people in the world don't pay attention to this. In the past, they were tied up with hairbands, and they were tormented by stupid and two shy maids, and they were a little helpless:

"You're going home right away. You're not going to attend a celebration. Why are you wearing such a formal dress?"

Dongfang Liren stood in front of him, straightened Ye Jingtang's cheeks, and said seriously:

"I'll see if it fits me. If it doesn't, I'll have to change it. As a high-ranking person, you should move in a controlled manner and keep your emotions and anger in check. If you look colder, um... just like when you're confronting Sima Yue, The wind is light and the clouds are calm, yet still confident and arrogant..."

Ye Jingtang knew that Benben wanted to see what he looked like in a python robe, so he sat upright with his hands on his knees, the smile on his face faded, and it was difficult to see his happiness or anger.

His eyes were as bright as stars, staring intently at the woman in front of him. His sharp eyebrows gave his handsome cheeks a bit of edge. He didn't look fierce, but he was aggressive.

As the saying goes, "A man is judged by his clothes." Ye Jingtang dressed up as a knight errant, with a stern face and stern eyes, which naturally showed his absolute confidence in his personal force.

At this time, he was wearing a tailor-made python robe, with a golden crown on his head and a jade belt hanging from his waist. His charlatanism was definitely gone, but his sharp edge was still there. He gave people the impression that he was a prince who had great power, unpredictable thoughts, and could not be disobeyed. It looks like it's hard to serve.

This was the first time Dongfang Liren saw Ye Jingtang looking at her like this, and his heart trembled. He subconsciously wanted to lower his eyebrows and lower his eyes, but he immediately realized it, stood up straighter, held his head high, and interacted with Ye Jingtang. stare.

The two maids of the palace next to them may not have expected that Mr. Ye, who was always easy-going and polite, would have an imperial aura than Prince Jing when he was cold.

Just like this, they were humiliating Prince Jing in the carriage, and neither of them dared to bite, so they were allowed to join in the fun, and they might even secretly rejoice...

Naturally, Ye Jingtang had no intention of letting the maids join in the fun, but he realized that Da Benben had a frightened look in his eyes just now, and he did have the intention of ruining Prince Jing, so he waved his hand slightly.

The two maids gave a long look, bowed and exited the carriage.

? !

When Dongfang Liren saw that Ye Jingtang dared to command her maid, she couldn't help but panic in her heart, but she didn't show any timidity. She narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at Ye Jingtang:

"what you do?"

Ye Jingtang kept a stern expression, stood up unhurriedly, and leaned close to Da Benben's ear. His demeanor was frivolous and unruly, and he looked like a domineering and evil prince. He was ready to say something to the beauty - Woman, I just like your unruly attitude. So tame...

Dongfang Liren's hands under her sleeves were slightly clenched, and she was ready to teach Ye Jingtang a lesson if she dared to do something wrong. However, what she didn't expect was that Ye Jingtang would come to her ears so forcefully. sentence:

"Does Your Highness like this look?"

?

Dongfang Liren was stunned for a moment, loosened his grip a little, and responded lukewarmly:

"It's okay. Why are you talking so close to me?"

Ye Jingtang pressed his earlobe and said softly:

"I'm afraid that my colleagues in the black office will hear it and damage His Highness's image. If Your Highness likes this look, how about I try something else?"

Dongfang Liren frowned slightly and said doubtfully:

"What do you want to try?"

"As long as I am more forceful, if His Highness likes it, then continue. If His Highness cannot accept it, stop it. Don't be angry or pinch me afterwards."

"..."

Dongfang Liren blinked his eyes, thinking that Ye Jingtang wanted to take advantage, but he was fine on the road, so he nodded as if nothing happened.

Ye Jingtang moved away from his ear, regained his stern look, looked down at Benben's face, put his left hand around his waist and pulled hard.

Thump~

Dongfang Liren was caught off guard and bumped directly into his arms. His heels were lifted off the ground. His eyes widened a bit and his heart trembled. Looking at Leng Ao's face so close at hand, his first reaction was:

My God, so handsome...

Dongfang Liren felt a little offended, but it was not unacceptable. He was even quite satisfied, so he stared at Ye Jingtang and said:

"Then what?"

Ye Jingtang raised his hand to lift his smooth chin, looked at her bright cheeks carefully, and then moved closer.

"..."

Dongfang Liren blinked, feeling that although it was a bit excessive, it wasn't the first time, so after thinking about it, he still didn't push it away.

When Ye Jingtang saw that Benben didn't stop him, he naturally put his hand on the fat-headed dragon, squeezed it hard, and then slid it down along the waist. His movements were not subtle at all.

?

Dongfang Liren's face turned red, and when he realized something was wrong, he immediately left, his eyes were annoyed and he grabbed Ye Jingtang's hand:

"You are presumptuous!"

Ye Jingtang blinked when he saw this, hugged Benben and asked:

"Don't you like it?"

"..."

Dongfang Liren wanted to be angry, but when he saw Ye Jingtang really stop, his eyes turned back to a gentle and caring look. His anger suddenly subsided a little, and he pursed his lips and finally said:

"Well... that was nice just now, just don't be so rude..."

Ye Jingtang smiled knowingly, understood the meaning, lowered his head and put his lips in his mouth, hugged Da Benben who was wearing a slim python skirt and sat sideways on his lap, gently caressing his waist and abdomen, and then slowly slid up , his fingers traced circles along the longan, very gently.

Zizzi~

Dongfang Liren's face turned redder and redder, but his tense body slowly relaxed in his gentle behavior. His hand inadvertently placed on Ye Jingtang's chest, and his fingertips gently rubbed the python dragon pattern.

Ye Jingtang found that Benben was actually imitating him, and there was a smile in his eyes. He thought about it and twirled it through the cloth.

Dongfang Liren's body trembled, and then he followed suit and squeezed Ye Jingtang's chest with his right hand...

"hiss……"

"Hmph~"

——

Gulu gulu~

The luxurious chariot with horses and horses was parked at the main entrance of Prince Jing's Mansion.

Dongfang Liren, who was dazed by the news, managed to maintain his composure, got off the carriage and entered the palace with his maid, holding his head high and chest high as if nothing had happened.

Later, people from the Ministry of Etiquette would come to deliver various rewards. As the protagonist, Ye Jingtang couldn't help but let Sanniang receive him, so he had to go back for this.

After he watched Da Benben enter the palace from the window, he took Benben's chariot to Tianshui Bridge and took out a letter to check.

The letter was a message sent back by Cao Aning through a hidden channel. It told about the great master of Beiliang Hua Ling and his team of envoys.

Ye Jingtang had spent more than ten days recuperating, and most of his body had recovered, so it was no problem to take action. However, as Hua Ling was the first person among the Four Sages of Beiliang and had a great reputation as a true warrior, it was still a bit stressful to meet him.

After Ye Jingtang carefully read the letter, he put the letter away and secretly considered his next response at the window.

Before I could figure out the reason, the carriage arrived near Tianshui Bridge.

When he was still less than half a mile away from the pedestrian street, Ye Jingtang suddenly noticed a figure walking silently on the small street across the river.

The figure was wearing a red and yellow winter dress with fragrant shoulders, with a veil covering her face, dressed as an exotic girl, and a small package hanging on her shoulders. She seemed to be preparing to leave home; but she was not walking very fast and was very hesitant. look.

?

When Ye Jingtang saw this scene, he was naturally startled. He got out of the carriage directly, flew up and tapped the river with his toes, and landed among the willow trees on the other side:

"Miss Van?"

Fan Qinghe was walking with a small package on his back and felt restless. He really didn't notice the luxurious bicycle frame on the other side.

When a figure flew over and a familiar voice sounded, her body froze slightly, lowered her head and wanted to run.

But out of the corner of his eye, he saw a handsome man in a python robe with a jade belt and a golden crown on his head by the river. Fan Qinghe was slightly stunned again. He was obviously stunned by the appearance and glanced up and down several times.

When Ye Jingtang found out that Miss Fan was running away from home, he was naturally anxious. He quickly came to him and asked:

"Miss Fan, what are you doing? Where are you going?"

Fan Qinghe took a few glances at Ye Jingtang's attire, then turned his gaze away, looking troubled.

Last night, Ye Jingtang suddenly touched her on the bed, pressed her down and kissed her for a long time. No matter what reason was used to explain it, the two of them had skin-to-skin contact. She was also wearing shameless clothes, giving Ye Jingtang a full view. .

Fan Qinghe wanted to think it was a misunderstanding, but Ye Jingtang did it on purpose. Yunli, who had just finished shopping, ran back and bought her some hairpin bracelets, saying they were from Ye Jingtang.

Fan Qinghe knew that Ye Jingtang had no bad intentions, but she lived in the back house of Ye Jingtang, kissed her, touched her, looked at her, and even gave her jewelry to coax her. Didn't he just treat her as his wife and concubine?

Fan Qinghe, the dignified King Dong Ming, was still the elder of Ye Jing Hall, so it was a bit too much to just accept what he wanted, but if he didn't accept it, how would the two of them get along with each other in the future?

For this reason, Fan Qinghe thought about it and felt that she should keep some distance and find a place to stay by herself, open a small medicine shop or something. The night terror hall was injured, so she came to the house as a doctor instead of living directly in the back house like a wife and concubine.

She hesitated just now because she was considering whether to discuss with Ye Jing Tang before leaving. Seeing Ye Jing Tang coming back, Fan Qinghe hesitated for a moment, pretended to be a guest, and said with a smile:

"I'm not traveling far away, um... I'm used to living in the tribes of the West Sea. I feel uncomfortable living in a wealthy family, so I plan to rent a house nearby. If you need it in the future, you can always ask the maid to come over and let me know..."

When Ye Jingtang heard this, he knew that it was the offense last night that made Fan Qinghe worried. He sighed and raised his hand to signal her to go back:

"I was really wrong yesterday. I didn't mean to offend you. I just recognized the wrong person and my brain was twitching again... Miss Fan came all the way to help me. I didn't treat guests as well as I could, but I made you feel wronged." , I don’t even know what to do..."

Fan Qinghe hung up the small package, pursed his lips, and said softly:

"I am an innocent daughter. Even if it is a misunderstanding, I really can't live in your back house. I will still help you in the future. I am not drawing a clear line with you. I still count on you to be my backer and protect Dongming. Where is the department..."

Ye Jingtang was simply in the wrong in this matter and had unintentionally taken advantage. He couldn't let the girl give her body to solve the problem. After thinking about it, he could only say:

"The house is big, how about I arrange a guest room for you? How can I rest assured that you have come to the capital thousands of miles away from home and live alone in the capital? Even if it is inconvenient at home, you can always take care of me. If you go to live outside, I'm afraid I have to I visit several times a day..."

Fan Qinghe knew that Ye Jingtang would not let her go, so he whispered:

"I'm not a weak woman with no strength, and I don't live too far away, so there's nothing to worry about."

When Ye Jingtang said this, he remembered something and took out the letter to show Fan Qinghe:

"You can't say that. Look at the information Beiliang just sent. It's Hua Ling who wants to kill me this time. I may not be able to take advantage."

Fan Qinghe took the envelope and glanced at it, his expression suddenly became solemn:

"Hua Ling has actually been invited... The battle is so big, Qianjimen and other Jianghu forces must also be involved. Beiliang is good at attacking people with secret arrows. You must be extremely careful recently."

Ye Jingtang slightly spread his hands: "I am a native warrior of the Wei Dynasty. I didn't know what the Seven Jue Formation was unless you reminded me last time. You know a lot about Beiliang's Jianghu court, you are also good at setting up hidden weapons, and you have superb medical skills; this The Beiliang is coming fiercely, and Miss Fan is not here to serve as my adviser. How much can I prevent it, no matter how careful I am?"

Fan Qinghe understands better than anyone how dangerous the current situation is.

If the Beiliang court wanted to get rid of the Night Terror Hall at any cost, it would definitely use all possible means, not to mention food and clothing. A mosquito flying by when passing by might be a strange sect carefully cultivated by a poison master. Poisonous poison kills people invisible.

The great Wei warriors such as Xuanji and Sanniang could only guard against the front. It was difficult for them to protect Beiliang's evil ways completely.

Fan Qinghe has studied these things since he was a child, and has been in Beiliang Jianghu for many years. He dare not say that he can completely prevent all kinds of plots. If he really wants to protect Ye Jingtang, he may have to sleep together.

Although Fan Qinghe is a little emotionally entangled, Ye Jingtang, as the orphan of King Tianlang, the nephew of Dongmingbu, and the only person who can save the tribe from suffering, if only one of her and Ye Jingtang can survive, She will try her best to keep Night Terror Hall alive.

After all, feelings are only related to her own joys and sorrows, while the life and death of Ye Jingtang is related to the survival of thousands of people behind her. If she dies, Ye Jingtang will definitely help her protect her people, but if Ye Jingtang dies, no matter how determined she is, she can't change the situation.

After Fan Qinghe thought clearly about the pros and cons, his originally troubled eyes changed. He returned the letter to Ye Jingtang, turned around and pulled his sleeve and walked back:

"Don't take this as a reason to coax me to go home. Emperor Liang wants you to die, and he will give you more than just one flower feather. From now on, your food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all out of my hands, not to mention food, drink, and ventilation. Be careful..."

After Ye Jingtang saw that Miss Fan was willing to go home, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that she would be too nervous, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I've practiced bathing in fire, I'm not afraid of poison..."

Fan Qinghe frowned and said: "The conspiracy among the Jianghu people in Beiliang is the same as that of Da Wei's children playing house? The poisoning was just a secret act, and there will be various interlocking plots in the future, just to disrupt You plan to give the assassin a chance to strike a fatal blow. I am an expert in this area. If you don't listen to my arrangements, why did you ask me to come here? "

Ye Jingtang said quickly: "I don't mean not to listen. I just want you not to be so nervous. If you have any plans, just tell me and I will definitely comply with them."

Fan Qinghe walked with them and said seriously: "You must pay attention to all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation. Not only you, but the people in the house must also be careful of everything from the outside. There are many people in Beiliang who fell into trouble here. The assassins hid their The strangely poisonous clothes are sold to wives, concubines and even maids and servants, and the target is poisoned through daily contact, usually half of the house is destroyed in one death..."

When Ye Jingtang heard this, he frowned and felt that the problem was a bit big:

"Well...I will send an order to the black office later and ask the Taiyuan Hospital to arrange some people to inspect the daily utensils at home. Miss Fan can help inspect the private items. Some things are not convenient for outsiders to get their hands on..."

"Assassins know how to understand people's psychology and specifically pick out things that are inconvenient to show to others. Don't be embarrassed if you ask Sanniang and the others to hide and tuck objects that can come into contact with you. Some things are completely harmless when viewed separately, but contact Together they are extremely poisonous..."

Although Ye Jingtang was not afraid himself, he was really worried that the people around him would be affected, so he listened very seriously.

When the two of them walked to the pedestrian street, they suddenly found many people standing at the door of the house in the distance.

The people in front were all wearing official robes, and behind were people from the Ministry of Etiquette, leading carriages and horses tied with red flowers, and carrying various wooden boxes of cultural objects and gifts, all of which were gifts from the court.

As soon as Pei Xiangjun learned that Ye Jingtang had been knighted, the people from the Ministry of Etiquette delivered the things in a blink of an eye. He was still a little confused. He and Mrs. Zhang stood at the door, not knowing how to receive him.

Seeing Ye Jingtang wearing a black python robe suddenly emerging from the corner of the street with a girl, Pei Xiangjun was obviously stunned for a moment, and then winked quickly.

The leader of the team was a middle-aged official in his forties, with a beard and a rather elegant appearance. He was Chen Hezhi, the Minister of Rites.

Chen Hezhi also didn't expect that the newly crowned Duke would be walking with an exotic beauty after leaving the court.

However, it is normal for a high-ranking prince to have two concubines in private. Chen Hezhi did not find it strange and immediately bowed his hand from afar:

"Your Majesty Chen Hezhi..."

"Hey! Mr. Chen, this is too embarrassing for me, just scare me."

Ye Jingtang had seen the ministers in Taiji Hall in the morning and knew that he was the second in command of the Ministry of Etiquette.

It is true that the Minister of Rites is not as senior as the Minister, but he is already an important member of the Sixth Ministry and a figure in the first three rows of the Taiji Hall. The title of the Ye Jing Hall is higher, and he is too young. He pretends to be superior to others as soon as he is awarded the title. He must be criticized by others. He immediately stepped forward and returned. A courtesy, you’re welcome:

"You can just send someone to deliver these items. Why does Mr. Chen need to come to the door in person..."

Chen Hezhi definitely came here not to deliver goods, but to chat about official matters. Seeing Fan Qinghe following closely behind him, he asked:

"Who is this girl?"

Fan Qinghe couldn't say that she was King Dong Ming, but after she learned about the conspiracy of the whole country in Beiliang, she couldn't easily leave Ye Jingtang alone with outsiders, so she bowed and said:

"I am Qinghe. I am Mr. Ye's bodyguard. I would like to pay my respects to Mr. Chen."

Guard?

This was the first time Chen Hezhi heard that Bakui went out with a guard. He thought that this girl should be a favored concubine, but she did not have a formal title.

Chen Hezhi knew that Prince Jing was interested in Ye Jingtang, and Prince Jing didn't mind. Naturally, he wouldn't meddle in other people's business. He just looked at the hair accessories:

"The girl should be from the Dongming tribe of the West Sea, right? Most of the women there are handsome. When I saw them today, they really lived up to their reputation..."

The bead hairpin on Fan Qinghe's head has a very small bead, which is the clan bead of the Dongming tribe. Normally, no one would pay attention to it and treat it as a pearl. When he saw this great Wei official, he could tell the truth at a glance. Surprised:

"Master Chen has good eyesight."

Chen Hezhi is an important minister in charge of diplomacy. Not to mention iconic objects such as ethnic beads, he is familiar with the dialects and folk customs of various places in Beiliang. Otherwise, how could he be appointed as the chief official to receive foreign envoys.

After Chen Hezhi said a few polite words, he entered the house with Ye Jingtang and said along the way:

"The Holy One has ordered Lord Ye to receive the foreign envoys together. The people coming this time are Li Si, the Minister of Rites in Beiliang, and several well-known figures in Yanjing. They are accompanied by more than 2,000 people..."

Ye Jingtang asked Chen Hezhi to sit down in the living room and said unexpectedly:

"so many people?"

Chen Hezhi said about this: "Most of them are accompanying soldiers, and the rest are young students who come to visit and ask for advice. There are only a few main people. The fleet has arrived in Guangji, and it is estimated that it will be able to go outside the city the day after tomorrow. The accommodation will be arranged in the foreign embassy. There will be a dinner party held at Furong Pond in the evening; I can leave you to attend the reception, and Mr. Ye only needs to attend the dinner party with me..."

Fan Qinghe took the teapot from Xiuhe, came over and pretended to be a maid to pour tea, and interjected:

"Young master is a thorn in Beiliang's side. Is there no risk in attending the banquet?"

Chen Hezhi knew better than Ye Jingtang himself how much Beiliang wanted to get rid of him quickly, and said calmly:

"It is because Beiliang regards Master Ye as a thorn in his side that the Holy Master arranged for Master Ye to come over to receive him. No matter how uncomfortable they feel, they still have to show respect to Master Ye on the stage. As for the risks..."

Chen Hezhi said this and turned to look at Ye Jingtang:

"Sir Ye is a contemporary military chief, and the black yamen's intelligence network extends in all directions. I guess he even knows how many bowls of rice Chen had eaten in the morning. Shouldn't Chen be keeping an eye on this security issue?"

When Ye Jingtang heard this, he knew that he was responsible for all the security issues after the foreign envoys entered Beijing.

Since he was arranged to participate in this matter, he could not avoid the security responsibility, but he directly took over the responsibility and took the blame alone if anything happened. For this reason, Ye Jingtang still said modestly:

"The Black Office is only responsible for banditry. It is difficult for the Criminal Department to intervene in the case of the Criminal Department. The matter of diplomatic relations between the two countries is even more unprofessional, so I can only provide some manpower. I was ordered to help Mr. Chen, and Mr. Chen needs to give more guidance on this matter."

Chen Hezhi came here because he actually wanted to check out the Ye Jing Hall and clarify their priorities. After all, the Ye Jing Hall was so popular that if, as a deputy, he was not taken seriously as the minister, he had no choice but to I can resign due to illness and let the Holy Spirit replace me with someone else as the chief official.

Seeing that Ye Jingtang had no airs, Chen Hezhi felt relieved and nodded with a smile:

"If something goes wrong in this matter, it will damage the face of Wei Dynasty. You and I will both bear the responsibility. There is no point of view. We just work together."

Ye Jingtang nodded slightly and talked about various details of the reception...
