Baishou loses Shaohua

It's night, Ye's house in Lingcheng.

Ye Nanqing was burying his head in reading this month's account book when he heard the study door being pushed open with a "squeak". When he raised his head, Luo Yan, dressed in black, was already standing in front of him.

"Miss Luoyan." Ye Nanqing got up, he was quite used to the way Luoyan appeared.

"Master Ye." Luo Yan nodded lightly, and presented Yu Chenglie's handwritten letter with both hands.

Ye Nanqing took the letter and opened it, then nodded to Luoyan: "I need two days to prepare this batch of food and grass, I wonder if Miss Luoyan will go with the food and grass by then?"

"His Royal Highness was worried that the rebels would take food and grass, so he specially asked Luoyan to escort them all the way." Luoyan said.

"That's fine." Ye Nanqing nodded, "Miss Luoyan will come to Ye's mansion early in the morning in two days."

"So Luoyan thanked Young Master Ye for Your Highness." Luoyan clasped her fists and saluted.

"Miss Luoyan, you are too polite. Your Highness and I have been friends for many years, so why should we thank you?" Ye Nanqing said with a smile.

"Master Ye, it's getting late and Luo Yan can't disturb you any more, so I'll take my leave now," Luo Yan said.

"Not far away." Ye Nanqing nodded.

After Luoyan left, Ye Nanqing sat down in front of the table again. He read Yu Chenglie's letter from the beginning to the end again, and the golden fan in his hand tapped the edge of the table again and again. This is his way of thinking .At first, Yu Chenglie asked Luo Yan to send him a letter asking him to help inquire about Ji Yinghan's news, but it was just a slap in the face, the purpose was to make Ji Yinghan think that Yu Chenglie was going to use the Ye family to deal with Weimen, but in fact he They teamed up with Qin Xun in private.Not to mention Ji Yinghan, even Ye Nanqing was caught in the valley with this move.

It wasn't until Emperor Chongde died suddenly and the battle for the heir apparent between Yu Chenglie and Yu Chenglin began that he received Yu Chenglie's real request for help.The national treasury was not full due to the severe drought in the south and the locust plague in the north the year before, so the natural food and grass for this war became a difficult task. Ready, the first person he thought of was naturally Ye Nanqing.

Ye Nanqing would not shirk it, so she immediately wrote to the Ye family's semicolon in Li'an, sending all the rice and grains that the Ye family had stored in Li'an to Yu Chenglie to make military supplies, and then from the nearby Some semicolons from several places were shipped over.Originally, these plus the food in the national treasury should be enough for the army to use for the first half of the year, but they didn't want to be wiped out by Ji Yinghan's fire.Although the national treasury was not lost due to heavy guarding, there was not much food and grass left, so Yu Chenglie had to turn to Ye Nanqing for help again.

Of course, Ye Nanqing would not be stingy with mere food and grass, but it was Yun Xin who really made him feel melancholy.

Originally, he was taken aback when the news of Ji Yinghan's assassination of Emperor Chongde came to his ears, but after calming down and thinking about it, he realized that Ji Yinghan had no intention of involving Yun Xin in it, so he was very confident that he could rely on himself and Yu It's not a problem to keep Yun Xin who doesn't know anything and can't remember anything.It's just that now there is an additional variable, and this variable is the person who is now sitting in the rear of Yu Chenglin's barracks and strategizing, Yun Xin's brother-Yao Yunqie.

Yao Yunqie's existence was beyond everyone's expectations, no matter it was Ji Yinghan or Yu Chenglie, Ye Nanqing was the one who was most affected.

These days Ye Nanqing always followed Yun Xin closely, no matter where he went, Ye Nanqing would be very nervous whenever Yun Xin asked to go back to Qianyu Tower.What Ye Nanqing was most afraid of was the news that Yun Xin knew that Yao Yun was still alive. Even if he lost his memory, he couldn't ignore his brothers who were still alive.

By that time... he would have lost him.

Ye Nanqing was in a daze, when the door was pushed open with a "squeak", and Yun Xin poked his head in: "Nanqing...?"

Ye Nanqing trembled nervously, and the hand holding the letter subconsciously hid under the table.

"Why don't you go back to your room?" Probably because the candlelight in the room was a bit dim, Yun Xin didn't seem to notice Ye Nanqing's little move just now.Holding the door frame, he frowned slightly and rubbed his eyes, his face full of sleepiness.

"Oh..." Ye Nanqing crumpled up the letterhead hidden under the table, and quietly threw it into the bamboo wastebasket next to the table, "I just finished reading the account book, and I'm going back to my room now." He stood up to clean up the table case, and took the opportunity to press an account book on the envelope on the table to conceal it and put it away.

Ye Nanqing looked up at the night sky outside the window. The bright moon hanging high had already slanted to the west. It turned out to be so late, no wonder Yun Xin came to remind her.He picked up the fan and walked out the door, took Yun Xin's hand naturally, and closed the door of the study.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Ye Nanqing asked softly.

"Well...it's okay." Yun Xin obviously looked sleepy, but she still shook her head bravely.

Back in the room, Yun Xin pointed to a bowl of mung bean soup on the table: "I see that you haven't slept well these few nights because of the heat, so I asked Jutao to prepare mung bean soup for you."

Ye Nanqing walked to the front of the table and drank it from the bowl. The sweet coolness flowed down his throat, making his whole body feel comfortable. He hugged Yun Xin contentedly and left a wet lip print on his cheek.Yun Xin pretended to dodge for a while, and then blushed.Ye Nanqing's heart that had been hanging all night finally fell to the ground. What could be more at ease than this person in her arms?In fact, he never wanted much, just a Yun Xin.

I don't know if the bowl of mung bean soup before going to bed really relieved the heat, Ye Nanqing slept very peacefully that night.

Ye Nanqing hurried to the study room early the next morning. Naturally, he did not forget the letter he had thrown into the wastebasket the night before. At the door of the study room, he ran into Yuantao who was returning with an empty wastebasket.

"Young master, get up." Tiao Tao bowed, since Ye Nanqing moved into Yun Xin's room, she was never asked to serve her sooner or later, so she came to clean the study room early every day.

"Oh." Ye Nanqing nodded, slapped the fan a couple of times unnaturally, then stared at the empty wastebasket and asked, "Sweet peach... where did you dump the things in the wastebasket?"

"Huh? The things in the wastebasket are usually sent to the kitchen to be burned." Ju Tao was taken aback by Ye Nanqing's strange question, then suddenly became nervous when she thought about it, and said in a broken voice, "Young Master, there is nothing important inside." something?"

"No." Ye Nanqing smiled, "I just asked casually."

"Oh..." Ju Tao felt relieved.

Little did they know that Ye Nanqing actually breathed a sigh of relief.

On the morning of the third day, Ye Nanqing got up early to arrange the loading of grain and grass.

Luoyan changed from her usual solemn black dress to wearing a royal blue skirt and a big straw hat with white gauze around the brim hanging down her neck. She was holding a long sword and leading a horse. The steed stood there, its aura so fierce that no one dared to look sideways.

"Miss Luoyan." Ye Nanqing returned the salute, and then pointed to the several driveways that had already been installed, "This is the quantity that your master asked for, and we have already prepared all of them."

"Thank you, Young Master Ye." Luo Yan nodded slightly.

"Miss, you're welcome." Ye Nanqing waved to the front, and the convoy of food and grass set off in an orderly manner.

"Farewell." Luo Yan got on her horse and cupped her hands towards Ye Nanqing.

"Safe trip, farewell." Ye Nanqing put away her fan and cupped her hands.

"Drive!" Luo Yan patted the horse's butt lightly, and the horse slowly followed behind the convoy.

"Nanqing!" The motorcade had just left when Yun Xin ran over from the yard.

"Huh? Why are you here?" Ye Nanqing turned her head and reached out her hand to brush the fine beads of sweat on the tip of Yun Xin's nose.

"Yu Tao said that you haven't had breakfast yet. What can't you do this early in the morning?" Yun Xin looked in the direction the convoy was leaving, pretending to be dissatisfied.

"This batch of goods is in a hurry, so we need to load it earlier." Ye Nanqing explained, "Besides, it's okay to eat breakfast later."

"Why is someone so important that you need to arrange loading the car yourself?" Yun Xin asked.

"An old friend of my father's when he was alive, he took care of Ye's family in many ways, so he naturally took care of it." Ye Nanqing replied casually. Yun Xin thought that he had never cared about Ye's family, so he would not be aware of it.

"Is it a woman?" Yun Xin tilted her head and asked.

"Huh?" Ye Nanqing didn't know why.

"The one who talked to you just now is obviously a woman, and she should be a young woman by the way she is dressed." Yun Xin frowned and muttered.

"Ah? Haha..." Ye Nanqing couldn't help laughing, "Where did you think it was? It was...the female escort arranged by their family to pick up the goods. This batch of goods is not small and I am afraid that they will be missed, so I asked the escort to escort them. "

Yun Xin blushed when she heard this, and said nothing more.

"Okay, okay." Ye Nanqing held Yun Xin's hand, "I'm hungry after a busy morning, let's go eat." After saying that, she lifted her legs and walked up the stone steps.

Yun Xin was dragged away by Ye Nanqing, but in the end he couldn't help but look back at the back of the woman who had gone away.

Nothing seemed different until that morning.

The night before that day, Ye Nanqing slept so well that when she woke up the next day, it was already high in the sun, and nothing in the room had changed, except that the warmth from Yun Xin had long since disappeared by her side, and there was a piece of paper on Yun Xin's pillow. The letterhead was exactly the one he thought had been sent to the back kitchen by Jutao and burned.Ye Nanqing leaned against the head of the bed and held the letter paper in a daze for a long time, but finally sighed quietly, what was supposed to come still came.

From that day on, the mung bean soup boiled with peaches no longer has the effect of sleeping.
