Rebirth of the Demon Queen

Chapter 254
On a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Qinjing, the antique house is shrouded in the morning light.

"Xie Xi really left Qin Jing?"

An old voice came from the study of the mansion. His voice was impressively accented in the capital city, and it was very loud in the morning sun.

"That's right, I've been sending people to follow them all the time, and I saw them take the official road to the capital with my own eyes."

If Xie Xi was there, he would be able to recognize that the person who answered was Su Bingchang, the shopkeeper of Wanyou Shop.

"This time, Han Jizhi was frightened even if he wanted to come. Our people wrote back saying that the governor's office and the governor's office also sent people to follow closely. It seems that the fire last night scared them a lot."

Opposite Su Bingchang was a gray-haired old man with deep wrinkles on his face, like mottled tree bark.

Holding a fine brush in his hand, he was drawing at his desk.

On the piece of rice paper on the table, there are impressively continuous mountains. On the steep mountain road, a ragged scholar is looking into the distance.

The old man didn't answer, but kept drawing on the paper.After a quarter of an hour, he stopped writing, pointed to the painting under his pen and Su Bingchang said: "Xiao Su, come and take a look, how about my painting?"

The mountains in the painting are majestic, but the clouds and fog make it difficult to see the mountain road in the distance.The scholar in the painting has a thin description, looking up to the mountain with a sad face.

Su Bingchang looked distressed, and said awkwardly: "Master, you also know that the young one is an ordinary person who only knows how to do business, but he doesn't understand these piano, chess, calligraphy and paintings."

The old man smiled and said: "I was only interested in being happy, but I forgot about this. If you are not willing to answer, then I will not force you."

After finishing speaking, the old man picked up his brush and added a few places on the painting, suddenly remembered something, stopped writing and said: "Send some people to keep an eye on Xie Xi, protect him if necessary, and make sure he returns to the capital safely."

"Master, will the killer we sent be called back?"

"Since I sent them out, I didn't think about letting them come back. For acting, I have to perform the show well so that there will be no flaws."

The old man straightened up and said in a deep voice: "Tell those who go out that I will not treat their family members badly, and let them do it with peace of mind. Especially, they cannot be captured alive."

Su Bingchang nodded and said, "This little one will definitely explain it to me. I don't know if the master has any other orders?"

The old man raised his head and looked out through the window.The morning glow filled the sky in the east, reflecting half of the sky red, as if the fire last night had reached the sky.

"It's going to rain. The emperor in the capital is really good. He has endured it for so many years. Let's see if he can bear it this time."

In the capital thousands of miles away, it has been raining heavily for one day and one night.The raindrops crackled on the tiles, disturbing people's mind.

"Miss, why did you get up so early?"

Lin Zisu got up before Mao's hour today, which surprised Hu Po who was waiting outside the door.

In Hu Po's impression, her young lady usually sleeps late on weekdays, and her wife pampers her. If there is nothing to do, she always doesn't wake up until the time of day.

Lin Zisu let Amber wash and dress her up, and asked casually, "Go to the concierge later and see if there is any letter from the Dun Palace."

"The maidservant went over early in the morning to look. The concierge said that he hadn't seen Mr. Feng deliver a letter in the past few days."

Amber showed a clear smile on her face, and then said: "Miss, you have been pressing for a few days, do you miss my uncle?"

As if Lin Zisu had never heard of it, she casually took out an emerald Huasheng from the dowry, and played with it in her hand, but her mood was ups and downs.

Since Xie Xi left Beijing, he sent a letter every two days to report his safety, but after receiving the third letter, he never saw Xie Xi's letter again.

At first, Lin Zisu didn't take Xie Xi's letter seriously. The two were not married yet, and she couldn't be like the boudoir in the storybook, looking forward to her husband's return every day.

But suddenly there was no news of Xie Xi, and something seemed to be missing.Lin Zisu felt restless these two days, as if something was dangling in front of her eyes.

Knowing that Xie Xi went to serve the emperor's will, there would be no serious problems, but Lin Zisu was a little worried after all when there was no news from him suddenly.

Early in the morning, Lin Zisu felt that her eyelids were twitching violently, so she simply got up to tidy up.

Caring is chaotic, it seems that her heart can't settle down.That being the case, instead of guessing wildly at home, it is better to ask someone for advice.

She didn't have many acquaintances in this life, and the only one who could give him advice on this was Yang Xingyao, the eldest son of Dian Palace.

Because Yang Xingyao had promised the emperor when he bestowed the marriage, Yang Xingyao had been staying in the Dian Palace in the capital all the time.

The Dian Palace said to the outside world that it was recovering from illness, but according to speculations from the government and the public, the emperor was afraid of the power of the Dian Palace, and forced him to stay in Beijing as a hostage by bestowing a marriage.

In fact, the real reason is very simple, Yang Xingyao is waiting for his wedding day.When Chen Yuqi is married into the Prince of Dian's mansion, he will use his calculations to find ways to return to Dian Prefecture.

In order to show etiquette, Lin Zisu sent Lve Ying to report to the Dian Palace in the capital, but he himself made a detour to Chang'an Hou Mansion.

Lin Zisu naturally came to look for Chen Yuqi. After all, Chen Yuqi and Yang Xingyao had an engagement, so it was more legitimate for her to take her to see Yang Xingyao.

Due to the rain in the past two days, Chen Yuqi was bored at home. When she heard about Lin Zisu's intentions, she immediately arranged to go out impatiently.

When the two saw Yang Xingyao, it was just after Chen Shizheng.The heavy rain outside did not stop, but the sound of the rain did not suppress Chen Yuqi's voice at all.

"My son, Susu has something to ask you, the dog-headed military adviser, you have to know everything!"

Chen Yuqi was usually careless, but after getting engaged to Yang Xingyao, the two occasionally got along a few times, and Chen Yuqi gradually regained the feeling of domineering when she was young.

Yang Xingyao shook his head with a smile, but he told Lve Ying who had been waiting for a long time: "Lve Ying, take the two young ladies to change clothes first."

Only then did Lin Zisu realize that because of her haste, when she arrived at the Marquis of Chang'an just now, her left shoulder was already wet.

But Chen Yuqi just ran over along the way, stepped on several puddles one after another, and the skirt was covered with muddy water.

The two changed their clothes as they said, and went back to the flower hall just now and sat down.

Only then did Yang Xingyao say to Lin Zisu: "Miss Lin, you are also a rare visitor. This is the first time you have come to my house, right? It's a pity that the weather today is really not an auspicious day. Let's drink a cup of ginger tea to warm up for now. Bar."

Only then did Lin Zisu notice that there were two steaming cups of ginger tea on the small table beside her, presumably it was prepared when the two of them changed their clothes.

Seeing Yang Xingyao being so meticulous, Lin Zisu suppressed her thoughts, smiled and said to Chen Yuqi: "Ah Qi, Mr. Yang is so caring, it seems that you will be a blessed person in the future."

Chen Yuqi curled her lips and said, "Susu, speaking of which, you are also my natal family, why did you buy you off with a cup of ginger tea?"
