Yan Fei

Chapter 124

When they stepped onto Qinzan's pier, both Yan Xinghe and Xu Wanfeng breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the sea breeze is still fishy and salty, the sun near noon is merciless and the ground is as hot as charcoal that has been baked by fire.When Yan Xinghe went to pack his luggage, Xu Wanfeng asked for a basin of cold water, soaked it with a cloth towel, took it and covered Yan Xinghe's forehead.

Yan Xing was taken aback for a moment, raised his hand to cover the cloth towel, turned his head to look at Xu Wanfeng, and bared his teeth suddenly.

"Dizzy?"

"It's okay, I can stand up."

Xu Wanfeng nodded: "The dock at the western end of Qinzan is the dock, and Du Man is to the south. Let's set off tomorrow."

"It's not impossible to go there now..."

"Bixie Wuqing is right," not far away, Gan Luo explained some matters, changed clothes, put on leather boots, followed by four or five attendants with their hands behind their backs, and the dog named "Ah The seabird "fish" stopped on his shoulder and combed his feathers from time to time. "If you don't know how to ride a boat, don't force it. If you hurt your body, don't try to do things."

Hearing this, Yan Xinghe pursed her lips a little annoyed.

"I haven't been to the nearby city for many years. In the past, when the late emperor was still around, we would come to this city every year during the fishing festival. The city is lively." Gan Luo smiled, "Although the fishing festival is over, the city will not be deserted. How about staying here tonight, so I can send some troops to you."

Xu Wanfeng nodded, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"There is my private house in the city. It's at the east end. Just follow the people outside the pier. When you get there, someone will arrange for you. I'll go with the Eldest Princess to deal with some matters, and you can do whatever you want."

When he arrived in Qinzan, it was natural that he should hand over the trivial matters that had been accumulated over the years.After he finished his explanation, he turned and walked towards Princess Fangsu who was waiting in the chariot not far away. The attendants around him put on a gold-rimmed blouse for him, and then followed him away like a tide.

He was so used to walking that he didn't even look at the sedan chair on one side, so he pulled up his slightly long sleeves and walked away quickly.

"Emperor..." Yan Xinghe squinted his eyes and sighed, "It was only at this moment that I realized that he was the emperor when I saw his clothes. But he really has no airs."

Xu Wanfeng was sending the guards left behind by Bixiewu and Gan Luo to carry out their luggage, saying: "So now you know the wolf king of Chilupan and the emperor who admired you, and you can bring along a minister of Bixiewu from Minghan. You can leave the one on the tail. Put it on your waistband, do you want it?"

The hand he stretched out touched the side of his face, Yan Xinghe was stunned, and said angrily: "I'll talk about the nice words when I go back, wouldn't it be better to stuff it in my stomach now?"

Xu Wanfeng laughed a few times as if applauding, and rubbed Yan Xinghe's soft silver hair without any scruples, his brows were slightly wrinkled, and the smile on his face gradually added a bit of bitterness.

"Do you want to dye it back?"

"What?" Yan Xinghe glanced at him inexplicably, not understanding what he meant.

"hair."

Yan Xinghe blinked, hesitated and said: "Whatever you want... If you don't like it very much, just dye it."

"It's not...it's pretty."

A few Bixiewu next to them could not help but roll their eyes when they saw their leader standing next to him with his family, and said, "Where do you put this, boss—"

"They hate you." Yan Xinghe said haha, and patted Xu Wanfeng on the back, "Go and do it first, I'll go out with them to move things."

But Xu Wanfeng held Yan Xinghe's hand under the angry gaze of his subordinates, and said: "Leave them alone, let's go back to Gan Luo's house first, and they also know the way around, they don't even know how to walk, so don't worry about it." done."

... Dare to be angry but not to speak, dare to be angry but not to speak.Conscience of heaven and earth, if it weren't for the high salary, half of the people in Bixiewu would have left.

Yan Xinghe said: "Help them, they are the ones who work under your hands after all, so let's face it, it's not easy to work under your hands."

Even if the boss has no conscience, at least the sister-in-law has a conscience.Everyone slandered.

The group of people worked nimbly with their hands and feet, and they didn't carry much luggage. They moved all the luggage to the carriage in about a stick of incense.There is a special road in the city for horse-drawn carriages, that road is a little lower than the road for people to walk on, and it is also paved with compacted soil, and the wheels of the carts have already made countless deep and shallow pits on it.

After all, it is the residence of the emperor. Not far from the row of long streets at the end of the road is the residence of Gan Luo. It is not as big as the Chi family's original residence in Wutong Mansion, but after all, it is just a resting place for the emperor. It can also be seen that every inch of land is precious.The servants led the two of them to the courtyard at Xitou, where there were a few leaves floating on the water in a pond, and a painted wooden board was hung on two hemp ropes hanging from a big tree beside it, which looked like a swing .

Yan Xinghe stood on the flagstone floor of the entrance and looked at the swing in a daze.Xu Wanfeng put everything in place and came out, just as he saw someone staring at the swing, he stepped forward and hooked his fingers wrapped in fabric, and said in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Yan Xinghe came back to his senses and shook his head in embarrassment.

Xu Wanfeng looked at the place he was looking at, and saw the swing through the thin cloth that blindfolded him: "Want to sit?"

"It's not really..." Yan Xinghe scratched his face, "I was pushed by my sister when I was a child, and then I went to Gusu Pavilion, where the swing that kills thousands of swords is hung on the suspended wood, and the bottom is empty. Yes, I have also seen the second young master Ye play, and the second young master in Gusu Pavilion is the best."

Hearing this, Xu Wanfeng could hear the eagerness in his heart no matter what.So he couldn't help but pull him to sit on the swing, put his hands on his back, and pushed him out.

Yan Xinghe didn't react, quickly grabbed the hemp rope, and exclaimed, the person was already in mid-air.The wind with the scorching sun of the end of summer was blowing warmly on his face, and rolled into his chest to activate his hands and feet. He felt as if his clothes and people, which had been dampened by the sea breeze, had been dried back.

Xu Wanfeng didn't push anymore, he just swung a few times and then stopped.Xu Wanfeng wrapped his arms around his shoulders and buried his face in his neck, breathing like a bird nestled in his collar.

Yan Xinghe was still staring blankly at the unreachable blue sky and white clouds, and his mind seemed to fly to the clouds with his swallow.

He was too thin, so Xu Wanfeng had to grow a little more flesh. When he inhaled, his shoulders moved up and down more conspicuously than ordinary people. When Xu Wanfeng hugged him, he heard his heart beating hard in his chest, and the whole chest was like He was struggling so hard that he could hardly breathe, but Xu Wanfeng knew that this was just an irrelevant normal state for him.

The soft and smooth hair on his forehead was pressed down by Yan Xinghe's hand, and it clung to his palm softly, as if he was stuck to Yan Xinghe's body and refused to let it go.Yan Xinghe patted his head and said, "What's wrong?"

"Anyway, spend more time with me."

"Then let me work harder, don't talk about it." Yan Xinghe comforted, "I have answered you many times, don't you listen?"

"I just want peace of mind." He paused, and then said, "Before I left, I received a letter from my father."

"Your father?! He knows you are..."

"He knows. He stared at this position for a long time, but was robbed by others. He knows it well. We also had a showdown last time."

Yan Xing couldn't help breaking into a cold sweat, and said, "Then what did your father say?"

"He said that my sister wanted to elope with someone, but in the end he took her back and put her head down and went to worship with someone. Now the child is no longer in the mansion, and she is married to someone else."

"...Is he trying to scare you?"

"Maybe. After all, it's the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. As long as Xu Wanfeng's business in Bixiewu is still under the table, he can use the marriage to call Xu Zhiming back...he's not stupid."

Yan Xinghe was silent for a while, and said: "I don't understand, what exactly does he want."

"Probably...let me listen to him obediently."

"Then you can't reveal your identity when the time comes. You are not allowed to break the rules passed down by your ancestors."

The tape on Xu Wanfeng's eyes moved, probably because he blinked himself: "I've already broken the rules."

"This... well, that's the end of it, don't continue." Yan Xing gave him a blank look, and said, "You think my father's position can be taken back?"

"If he doesn't give it, it's a big deal for me to bluff."

"That can't be done," Yan Xinghe pinched his chin, and said seriously, "I can't explain to my father the title that is not right, I have to let him sort things out and return my father's innocence. "

Xu Wanfeng pulled his hand off his face, and held it in a circle: "Otherwise, what am I doing here? Yanzi, we are in the evil spirit dock, do you really know what it means?

"Bixiewu was set up by the founding emperor to allow the ancestors of the Xu family to stare at his actions as they did during the uprising. Qing Bixiewu can never reveal his real name to others for the rest of his life. Only the emperor, the former Qing Bixiewu and his biological mother can I learned that because of this, our Xu family’s children can never read, only Bixiewu Qing has writing... Every Bixiewu Qing must be from the Xu family, so the teaching of Bixiewu is also very strict... ... Bixiewu is not just a place to investigate cases for the emperor, as everyone said.

"Let me put it this way, Yanzi, aside from other things, Bixie Wuqing can't have selfish desires in this position, after all, the knife in Bixiewuqing's hand is a knife that can kill the emperor.

"But because of this... Bixiewuqing sees it more clearly than the emperor. If Bixiewuqing sees it wrong, the emperor will be even more wrong. Now that the emperor has made a wrong judgment because of his grandfather, I naturally have to watch it for him clear."

Yan Xinghe saw him pursing his lips, and raised his hand to take off his obstructive belt.Xu Wanfeng lowered his eyes, looked at his hands obediently, his shoulders were slumped, it was strange that he was listless.

He stretched out his hand to touch his face, and saw his rare blood-colored eyes suddenly brightened, widened slightly, and moved a little closer, looking into his eyes.

"I'm sorry for you."

"No...Even if it's not easy for me, at least I can protect you."

"I mean, Zhiming," Yan Xinghe sighed, "you are too tired.

"I love you."
