Standing behind him, Wan Shi looked up cautiously.

Seeing Yan Qing rubbing the jade bracelet suddenly became stronger, and there was a hint of sneer on his always gentle and polite face. Wanshi had never seen Yan Qing like this before. He was stunned, as if the jade bracelet in his hand was his own. , being pinched is about to fall apart.

Since the master is in a bad mood, a servant like him should go forward to appease him, but he touched Yan Qing's half-closed star eyes, and for some reason, he took a few steps back.

Yan Qing was brought back to his thoughts by this movement, he turned his head to look at Wan Shi, his gaze returned to the usual temperature, "What's wrong?"

Wan Shi was stunned, and then remembered the reason why he came into the palace, and hurriedly bowed and replied, "The people from the Xiao family are here, and they are waiting outside to see His Highness."

... The Xiao family.

The light in Yan Qing's eyes became complicated in an instant. As early as the day before when he returned to the palace, he had seen Mrs. Xiao from a distance during the welcome battle in the palace. The old man stared at him with tears in his eyes, and Xiao Ran, who was supporting her beside him, was also looking at him.

If it wasn't for the news brought by Zhou Mo, he might have mistakenly thought that besides his disgusting empress, there was someone waiting for him to go home.

Yan Qing lowered her eyes, seeming to smile.

"Your Highness?" Wan Shi hesitated and called Yan Qing again, and said, "If Your Highness feels unfamiliar, then—"

"No need," Yan Qing stood up and took a deep breath, "I'll go now."

Yan Qing walked very slowly, as slow and orderly as his temperament, but only he himself knew how much he didn't want to see the Xiao family now.

He was afraid of anger and disappointment.

But the road to the front of the hall was just a few steps, Yan Qing restrained all his expressions, and walked towards Xiao Ran and a man with gentle eyes in the hall.

The one who came side by side with Li Ran was probably his nominal uncle Meng Li. Yan Qing looked at the two people in the hall calmly, and when he was about to speak, he saw Xiao Ran and Meng Li who were about to bow down to pay his respects.

Yan Qing hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, "Auntie, don't be too polite."

Xiao Ran was supported by Yan Qing, stared at Yan Qing for several times, and when he spoke again, his voice became hoarse, "Like, like, really like."

As if recalling the past, Xiao Ran's eyes turned red a lot, Meng Li beside him patted Xiao Ran's hand lightly when he saw this, and said with a soft smile, "The family is naturally alike, what nonsense the wife master is talking about."

Yan Qing withdrew his hand, raised his eyebrows to cover the moving expression in his eyes, and raised his eyes again to be cold, he invited the two of them to sit down, and called Wan Shi to serve tea.

Seeing Yan Qing's unfamiliar appearance, Xiao Ran felt extremely uncomfortable, but he had no reason to blame him. They were the ones who lost Yan Qing for more than ten years.

Meng Li gently helped Xiao Ran into the seat, and seeing his wife's distraught appearance, he could only open his mouth and said, "Originally, the old lady also wanted to follow, but she is too old to run around. It’s not that we stopped him, I’m afraid they have followed us earlier.”

Meng Li's voice was very soft, and the familiarity between his words was not like meeting Yan Qing for the first time, "When your Highness is free, remember to go back to Xiao's house, the old lady and the others miss you very much."

Xiao Ran was brought back to his senses by Meng Li's words, and he also stared at Yan Qing and nodded in response, "Yes, yes, my family misses you very much, I thought you—"

Xiao Ran paused for a moment, stretched out his hand and waved it in the air, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't say those bad words, just come back, just come back, and when you are free, you must go home and have a look."

Yan Qing looked at Li Ran's appearance, and thought of the old lady with teary eyes that day, his eyes were slightly sour, but Zhou Mo's words kept lingering in his ears, he closed his eyes, made a plan, and said something that would surprise him. Xiao Ran and Meng Li were frightened at the same time.

-

When Zhou Liu came back, it was already after a cup of tea. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw Zhou Mohao sitting at the table reading a book in his leisure time.

She turned her head to look at the servant beside her, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Return to your lord, Mr. Mo said that he is not hungry."

Zhou Liu frowned, waved his hands and said, "Go, serve the food."

After Zhou Liu finished speaking, he would walk into the yard, and after taking two steps, he turned around, "Go and call Yun'er here too."

The servant was obviously taken aback, and his expression was a little strange for a moment.

Zhou Liu didn't care too much, after all, Yanyun and Zhou Liu were currently staying in her mansion for no apparent reason, so what could servants think, it was nothing more than those things about Yingying and Yanyan, because they were afraid of servants With a broken mouth, she didn't even dare to arrange someone to serve her in her brother's yard.

"The talk is over?" Zhou Mo put down the book, turned to look at Zhou Liu, "Why this expression, what happened?"

"It's no big deal."

"Oh." Zhou Mo turned back again.

"Hey, no, brother!" Seeing Zhou Mo's perfunctory look, Zhou Liu immediately became unhappy, "I said it's okay, so it's really okay?"

There was a trace of disgust on Zhou Mo's face, "Let's stop being so sour, and talk about it if you have something to do."

"I really don't know why my sister-in-law is interested in you," Zhou Liu's face was a little dry when he was told, so he had to pull Yanqing out to relieve the atmosphere.

Zhou Mo snorted, his expression much gentler.

Yan Yun and the serving servants arrived one after the other, Zhou Liu waved away everyone, and then pulled Yan Yun to sit beside him.

Seeing his elder brother there, Yan Yun was somewhat embarrassed and wanted to break free, but suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhou Liu staring at him, the dishes and chopsticks were neatly arranged, with earnest eyes, Yan Yun could only sit down with his face burned.

Satisfied, Zhou Liu withdrew his gaze and brought food to Yan Yun, "Let's talk while eating."

She told them what the fifth emperor had told her about the disturbance of the border by foreigners in the northwest.

"Then why did the barbarian have another twisted mind?" Yan Yun put down his chopsticks, frowned and looked at Zhou Liu.

"Isn't it because you're not here, no one can suppress them?" Zhou Liu gave Yanyun a dish, "Don't worry, just listen to me."

"The fifth emperor told me this. First, she wanted to see if I was really as desireless as I appeared on the surface. Second, she probably wanted to know my opinion."

The foreigners in the Northwest have always been restless, and they were severely discouraged when Yan Yun was leading the army. Although they were still dissatisfied, they dared not make too much noise. The army invaded the city, and the garrison soldiers retreated steadily, and the battle report was urgently delivered to the capital.

"At the beginning, I hired soldiers to help Yan Yun simply to chase after his wife, but well, I..." Zhou Liu boasted that he was a little bit ashamed in front of the two of them, "I actually hid her ability, and it was passed on unexpectedly. After returning to the capital, she felt that my purpose was not pure, so she came to see where my ambition was."

"What did you say?"

Zhou Liu stared at Zhou Mo, "What can I say, it's the Northwest wilderness, I'm not here to make contributions, and you are all in the capital, I must refuse, so I said..." She rolled her eyes Yan Yun seemed to be in deep pain, "The beauty is gone, and I have no intention of starting a career."

Yan Yun: "..."

Zhou Liu didn't make any jokes anymore, and calmed down before Yanyun became angry, "Her meaning is quite simple, after all, it is military power, and she wants to let her people intervene, but this person has to come out of my mouth, First, I broke up with her on the surface because of my sister-in-law, and second, I just came back from the battlefield with a good record, so I have some right to speak."

Zhou Mo raised his eyebrows, "She came here so motivating, can the third princess not doubt you?"

"Don't worry, she's not a fool either. She's so good at acting with the third princess, she probably thinks she's here to settle my sister-in-law's debt." Zhou Liu curled his lips, "The person who is against me in the court now But there are too many, first the emperor, then the three emperors, and now there are five emperors, everyone pushes the wall down."

"Hey, brother, Yun'er, tell me, if the emperor really becomes the queen of the Phoenix, who would it be? A noble monarch with no background but a pampered person, a noble person who comes from a noble background but... is relatively unpopular. I even spoiled the side king for half my life."

"No accident, it should be the king." Yan Yun thought for a moment and said.

"The possibility of an accident is not small," Zhou Mo frowned. After all, it should have been lifted sooner, and there must be concerns about delaying it for so long.

Zhou Liu looked at the two of them and said discouragedly, "That's right, who can guess what she's thinking."

"I really don't want to go to court. A group of Wen Zou Zou Zou Zou's people are trying to change their ways."

After eating in Zhoumo's courtyard, Zhou Liu was invited back to the Ministry of Rites. Yan Yun was bored and left without saying a word to Zhoumo.

From the day Zhou Mo said goodbye to Chen Nianhua, he sent someone to find out who the person who chased and killed Yun Mian was, but so far no news has been sent back to him. Thinking that it has been more than ten years, many things have become difficult He got up, but he was not willing to wait in the mansion, he walked around the periphery of Xiao's mansion a few times, and when he was about to leave, he saw a sedan chair stopped at the gate of the mansion, and two people got off from it.

"He was young at that time, what can he remember?"

"But he has no reason to lie to us, that is his biological father," the woman paused, her face stained with sorrow, "it is also my biological brother."

"That's not what I meant, wife master, listen to me..."

The two entered Xiao's mansion while arguing. Zhou Mo frowned and stared at the closed gate. After a little thought, he probably understood the person they were talking about. When I noticed it, I flipped it in.

When he found Meng Li again, the man was standing by the pool in a daze, with a sleepy look on his face, and his face was slightly red from the cold for an unknown amount of time.

"Master, you can't stay here any longer. The doctor said that you were just pregnant, and the fetus is very unstable."

Meng Li suddenly came back to his senses, gathered his clothes, and took two steps back, "Where is your lord?"

"Your Excellency is still in the old lady's room and hasn't come out all this time. Maybe there is something important to talk about."

Meng Li's face changed obviously when he heard this, but he didn't ask anything, he just lowered his eyes and touched his stomach, "Has Xiao Yang not come back yet?"

"The eldest young master went to have a drink with his friends, yes, it shouldn't be so fast."

"Nonsense!" Meng Li gritted his teeth, "Tell him to come to my yard as soon as he comes back."

Xiao Yang is Yan Qing's cousin, the two of them are actually not much different in age, but their lives are different, as the son of the Xiao family, Xiao Yang has always been loved and loved, so much so that he has brought some wealthy families along with him. The son's dandy, who neither wants to marry someone else, nor wants to marry a man's wife, just spends time in the mansion.Anyway, Xiao's mansion could afford to support him, and he didn't have much expectations for the man, so he let him go.

It's just... Meng Li's reaction was surprising.

If Zhou Mo's guess is correct, Yan Qingxu told the two of them what she told him...

Zhou Mo wanted to listen more, but he heard very light footsteps coming towards here. The voice sounded like that of a martial arts practitioner. In broad daylight, Zhou Mo didn't have a completely hidden place to hide, so he had to keep a cold face slipped away early.

After returning, Zhou Mo quickly sent someone to watch Meng Li, while he was preparing to visit the palace at night again.
