Unclean

The water covered his cheeks, and while soaking his front, it also alarmed Yu Qin.

Yan Yunhe lifted his face from the jar, his face was washed clean, but his whole body was drenched.

The hair on the forehead was wet in strands, drooping at the corners of the eyebrows, looking more like a wet puppy on a rainy day.

Fortunately, the stalled heartbeat seemed to be shocked by the sudden "calmness" of the master, and it slowed down quite a bit, beating peacefully in the chest.

Yan Yunhe turned to look at Yu Qin again, and sure enough, his heartbeat was no longer as fast as before, and Yu Qin looked at him with a look of looking at things that he couldn't understand.

Then Yu Qin grabbed the chopsticks that had fallen on the table and put them away, pondered for a while before saying, "Remember to change the water in the tank later."

He didn't ask Yan Yunhe why he suddenly went crazy, maybe in Yu Qin's view, Yan Yunhe was the kind of person who often did amazing things.

Yu Qin wiped the end of his eyes with a handkerchief, probably because of his short mouth. This time, he didn't show a cold face to Yan Yunhe's teasing, but just wiped repeatedly until there was no residue.

Yan Yunhe took a closer look, and felt that it would be better not to wipe it, and the handkerchief was made of unknown material, so the corners of Yu Qin's eyes were rubbed red after a few strokes.

The profile looked over abruptly, as if she had been crying.Would Yu Qin cry too? He looked ruthless and had no tears.

Yan Yunhe stared at Yu Qin as he finished the side dishes in the noodles, and took another sip of the soup: "It tastes good, it's my specialty."

Yu Qin nodded and said, "It's okay."

In the end, the water in the tank that was dirty by Yan Yunhe was settled with silver.He called a few servants from Donglin Academy, fetched a new tank of water, and heated up the dirty tank and sent it to Yan Yunhe's room for him to wash up at night.

On the way back, the night wind was a bit chilly, and most of Yan Yunhe's hair was wet again. He impatiently took off his hair crown, and rubbed the clumps of hair with his fingertips.

Carrying the lantern given by the steward, the warm candlelight illuminates the Yan Yunhe in the dark night, thick eyelashes cover the pair of pale eyes, the brow bone connects the bridge of the nose, there is an indescribable charm, it is really not like a Han Chinese.

But it can also be seen from this that Mrs. Yan, who is so loved by the Marquis of Yong'an, should be stunning when she is young.

Turning his eyes, he realized that Yu Qin was looking at him. The banquet was overjoyed, and he deliberately asked, "Looks good?"

It's not good-looking, it's just a bit silly. Although Yu Qin didn't speak, his eyes said it all.

Yan Yunhe snorted lightly, didn't care too much, reached out his hand to find the jade pendant in his arms, and handed it to Yu Qin together with the box of rouge: "Send it to you."

Yu Qin stopped, his dormitory was not far away, Yan Yun was so rich and powerful, they didn't live in the same place.

Yan Yunhe didn't feel Yu Qin's intention to pick it up, so he couldn't help but wondered: "Take it, you won't think it's a trick again!"

Where Yu Qin stayed, there happened to be a pillar, the moonlight fell on his half body, and the lantern in his hand could not illuminate his expression: "Yan Yunhe."

This was the first time he called Yan Yunhe's name officially, which made Yan Yunhe nervous.

"This is a truce."

Yan Yunhe was stunned for a moment, then his body trembled, and he couldn't help laughing after a while: "It's not easy to get a truce from you."

In fact, it's easy, just a bowl of noodles.

Yu Qin didn't laugh along with him, and added the next sentence slowly: "That's it." The two sentences before and after seem to have the same meaning, but they are actually different.

The truce at this point refers to the place where Yan Yun has offended Yu Qin, so don't care about it.

So far, it means that the relationship between the two will not go any further, and students who are just unfamiliar with each other will naturally not accept this birthday gift.

Yu Qin handed the lamp in his hand to Yan Yunhe: "It's deeper and the dew is heavier, be careful on the road."

Yan Yunhe took the lantern, and there was still another person's warmth on the handle, but unfortunately that person's cold temper was not as hot as this residual warmth.

The short time in the back kitchen is like a mirror flower and a moon in water.

Yu Qin ten years ago was already so unapproachable, let alone Yu Qin ten years later.

……

Yan Yunhe waited all night outside the city gate, his face was ashen, his beard even had crumbs of cake, he was terribly dirty.

Just looking at his appearance, he is far away from Yu Qin who is wearing a brocade suit and a gold mask.

He didn't know how long Yu Qin had been looking at him, probably not for long, because the other party quickly rode a horse, crossed the bustling crowd, and was greeted by the soldiers at the city gate, and entered the capital.

Chen Qing moved closer to him and whispered, "Brother, he has been watching you for a long time."

"It's okay, don't be a guilty conscience, but you will mess up your own position." Yan Yun said.

Yu Qin decided to have doubts, but how could he, who was "dead" by Yu Qin himself, turn into a barbarian and appear in the capital.

Yan Yunhe thought about his brief contact with Yu Qin from last night to this morning, and he was sure that he should have not revealed anything.

If Yu Qin can recognize himself in this short contact, then this person either has a crush on him or hates him to the bone.

The former is absolutely impossible, and the latter is not possible.

He and Yu Qin were not close friends in those years, and he couldn't help when Yu Qin had an accident, but in that case, no one could save the Yu family, let alone a mere banquet, Yu Qin would not Hate him for that.

Even if he killed him later, he was only acting on the order of the Queen Mother.

The more I think about it, the more I feel cold. What was uncovered on the cliff was Yan Yunhe's secret, and it was his shady thoughts.

When did Yu Qin find out? Was it from the beginning or just recently? How did the other party think of him?

It's useless to think too much. In the end, Yu Qin pushed him off the cliff without mercy.

No matter how Yu Qin felt about him, it would not be what Yan Yunhe expected.

After entering the city, Yan Yunhe took Chen Qing to a dim sum shop at the junction of Sifang Street in the imperial city.

As the eyes and ears of the emperor, the most mysterious institution of the Jin Dynasty, the joint is actually a snack shop, which is too down-to-earth.Yan Yunhe also felt this way when he first received the help of the Imperial City Secretary.

The purpose of Emperor Cheng Jing's initial establishment of the Imperial City Division was to integrate it into the people, to be ubiquitous and omnipotent.

There are already Jinyiwei in the palace, and the Secretary of the Imperial City can only find another way to avoid his edge.

Facts have proved that Emperor Cheng Jing's approach is very effective.

Compared with the growing and bloated Jinyiwei, the Imperial City Secretary buried deep in the people can sometimes achieve unexpected effects.

Yan Yunhe asked Chen Qing to stay with the shopkeeper, and he walked in alone.

The pastry shop looks small, but in fact, go around the counter and go back. There is a stone door in the kitchen, open it, go down, follow the stairs, walk through a narrow and long dark passage, and then suddenly open up.

Ye Mingzhu brightened the place, and the Imperial City Marriage Officers in uniforms shuttled back and forth. There were Chinese medicine cabinets that Yinniang had seen everywhere, and the Marriage Officers took out news from them and put in new ones.

In the end, the officials of the Imperial City Division compiled the important news into a book and presented it to Emperor Cheng Jing.

The promotion officer is Yan Yunhe's old acquaintance, and the Imperial City Secretary is too mysterious, if it wasn't for Emperor Cheng Jing's instruction, Yan Yun would never have the chance to meet this promotion officer, and naturally he would not know the identity of the other party.

He came early, and the promotion officer happened to be discussing matters at the moment, and when he saw Yan Yunhe's face, his voice didn't stop, as if he didn't wonder why there was a barbarian in such a secret place.

Yan Yunhe took off his mask, and smiled wryly at Juguan: "I knew it, you must have heard the news."

After the promotion officer gave his subordinates what to do, he waved his hand to make them leave.

When there were only two people left in the room, the promotion officer said: "Indeed, I heard that you and Mr. Yu ran into each other at the inn last night, and met at the gate of the city this morning. It's a pity that I wasn't there, so I didn't catch up with this good show."

Yan Yunhe smiled and said: "Fang Zhizhou, even if you are not present, you have not missed this play."

Fang Zhizhou leaned on the chair, shaking the folding fan lightly in his hand, the official uniform edited by the Imperial Academy on his body was still on, and he came here right away.

Among them, Fang Zhizhou had taken the path of a civil servant in a serious way, and entered the officialdom in a stable manner. He first entered the Imperial Academy and started with classics, slowly worked through his qualifications, and then steadily rose to the ranks.

This is indeed in line with the Fang Zhizhou that Yan Yunhe knows. He believes that in time, Fang Zhizhou will definitely be the one with the highest official position among them.

But he never expected that Fang Zhizhou would secretly take over the Imperial City Department and become His Majesty's confidant.

It seems that Fang Zhizhou also has another opportunity after he left the capital all these years.

When the Imperial City Division was first established, it was still a hot potato. At that time, Fang Zhizhou was only 23, and he dared to continue to grow the Imperial City Division rapidly in just five years.

After he learned who was in charge of the Imperial City Division, he felt fortunate that Fang Zhizhou was his own.

It has to be said that Emperor Cheng Jing's eyes on people are really vicious, even Yan Yunhe, who has known Fang Zhizhou for many years, doesn't know that this person has such potential.

Fang Zhizhou put down the folding fan, explaining that the joke was over, and it was time to get down to business: "Your Majesty has already seen the news you sent two days ago, why do you suspect that the person who bought the gunpowder behind the scenes will do it on the day of the ceremony. "

Yan Yunhe said: "This is just my guess. Do you remember the event that the sacrificial tower was struck by lightning last year?"

"How can you not remember that Empress Dowager Jiang used this matter to severely dampen His Majesty's spirit, and even ordered His Majesty to wear plain clothes and avoid the main hall for discussion." Fang Zhizhou said.

Yan Yunhe nodded and said: "The construction of the Sky Tower should be under the management of the Ministry of Industry. If Zhao Xiang just smuggled the wrong amount of gunpowder, it is not enough to prove anything."

Fang Zhizhou had already made preparations. He had asked Zhao Xiang's life to be compiled into a book and kept on the table.

Yan Yunhe didn't need to look at it: "When I was investigating Zhao Xiang's case, I had already seen these things. Zhao Xiang did not participate in the repair of the sacrificial tower."

Fang Zhizhou said thoughtfully: "Although Zhao Xiang did not participate, this is an important matter of the Ministry of Industry after all, and it is impossible for him to be completely unaware."

"So I'm thinking that maybe it wasn't an accident that the sacrificial tower was split by lightning last year," Yan Yunhe said.

Fang Zhizhou immediately understood what Yan Yunhe meant. Whether the sacrificial tower was split open or blown up under the arrangement of someone with a heart is still unknown.

After all, when there are many thunderstorms, some palaces often suffer from thunderstorms.

"If it's true as you said, someone deliberately blew up the tower, and if someone finds out that it's wrong, the collapse of the house was not caused by lightning. Wouldn't it be exposed in advance?" Fang Zhizhou found out the construction plan of the sacrificial tower, and spread it on the table .

Yan Yunhe followed the laid out construction map and pointed to the location of the sacrificial tower: "Indeed, unless the Ministry of Industry has their people."

Turning man-made disasters into natural disasters is easier said than done, but it is actually not that difficult.

Find the right time to blow up the sky tower, and then find a way to bribe the officials who investigate whether there is a thunderstorm, and you will be able to deceive the world.

Fang Zhizhou's complexion darkened, and he looked at the construction plan: "If this is the case, then it is very likely that they hid gunpowder in it during the repair process."

Before Yan Yunhe could speak, Fang Zhizhou vetoed the idea himself: "Even if the Ministry of Industry has their people, it is still too difficult to hide the gunpowder in the built sacrificial tower. There are too many people on the repair site, and it is impossible to guarantee that nothing will go wrong. .”

Yan Yunhe agreed: "No matter when they strike, as long as they don't catch the person behind the scenes, everything is not over."

Fang Zhizhou sighed softly: "Zhao Xiang is also a talent. He was able to find something wrong from so many clues. He was also able to replace gunpowder with firecrackers before being killed, which attracted our attention."

Yan Yunhe said with emotion: "Although people are greedy, they are still loyal."

Zhao Xiang wanted to cover up his buying and selling of gunpowder, all he had to do was destroy the evidence and not investigate the whereabouts of the gunpowder.If you are a foolish official, you might be able to save your life.

Obviously, Zhao Xiang did not choose to do this.

Fang Zhizhou stood up: "I have found the trace of Zhao Xiang's outer room, but the person Chen Qing said who asked him to transport gunpowder in the name of the Tsing Yi Gang has not been found yet."

Yan Yunhe pushed the construction plan to Fang Zhizhou: "The sacrificial ceremony will be held soon, and His Majesty's safety is the most important thing."

Fang Zhizhou: "Understood, then Zhao Xiang will leave it to you."

Yan Yunhe threw the torn human skin mask aside: "It's easy to say, let's change the skin before that."

Fang Zhizhou joked: "What's the matter, being a barbarian is quite suitable for you."

"It's too ugly." Yan Yunhe said solemnly: "It's not suitable for you, Mr. Yan, who is in the wind at Yushu Linfeng."

Fang Zhizhou rubbed his chin: "Could it be that Master Yu thinks your skin is too ugly?"

The corner of Yan Yunhe's mouth twitched: "I think Mr. Yu likes it too much. I miss it so much, I don't know how many times I have peeped at it."

Fang Zhizhou laughed loudly: "I have someone here who is proficient in disguise. If I ask him to change your appearance for you, he will definitely make you handsome again."

……

Chen Qing chatted with the shopkeeper of the dim sum shop, the shopkeeper rarely talked, and most of the time it was Chen Qing who did the talking.

The shopkeeper might think he was too noisy, so he handed him a box of dim sum, but he didn't expect that the food could not stop Chen Qing's mouth.

Before the shopkeeper hated him, the curtain leading to the back kitchen was lifted, and a young man in his teens came out with a sullen face.

The young man was no more than sixteen, his face was especially childish, but those light-colored pupils were too familiar.

Chen Qing was dumbfounded, looking at the young man, who walked straight up to him, opening his mouth was the voice Chen Qing knew: "Let's go."

"Yan... Master Yan?" Chen Qing couldn't believe it.

Yan Yunhe's bones ached all over, impatiently: "What's wrong?"

Chen Qing stood up: "Why are you getting smaller?"

Not only is he short, but his whole body has shrunk in size.

Thinking of the process of shrinking himself just now, Yan Yunhe's face became even more gloomy: "It's a bone shrinking technique."

It was so painful, even though Yan Yunhe had studied martial arts all the year round, under the technique of that disguiser, he still felt so painful that he couldn't die.

Chen Qing was amazed: "My lord, even if you walk in front of Master Yu in person like this, he will never recognize you."

Of course, Yan Yunhe knew that if it wasn't for this, he would have rushed to Fang Zhizhou to fight with others, and he always felt that Fang Zhizhou deliberately asked Yi Rongshi to choose such a torture method.

He thought that Zhao Xiang's concubine, Liang Yin'er from Wanhualou, had already fled the capital, but he didn't expect that the other party had been hiding in the city.

Liang Yin'er lives in Shenmiao Street in Zhengdongfang. On the map of Kyoto, it is directly below Jinyiwei, but only three fingers away.

The three fingers on the map have a certain distance in reality.

Yuemo is the safest place in the most dangerous place, but it's dark under the lights so people can't find her all the time.

Or Zhao Xiang is dead, it seems that the matter is over.By accident, Liang Yin'er survived.

When Yan Yunhe arrived at Temple Street, the street was quite lively.

The sacrificial ceremony is coming soon. Temple Street is dedicated to gods and Buddhas. There are many street vendors selling incense, candles, lamp oil, and wine vendors.

Yan Yunhe took Chen Qing, who had changed his face again, and shuttled among the crowd.

It looked like a young master from some unknown family ran out with his servants. Many vendors on the road yelled at Yan Yunhe, hoping that he would stop and buy something.

Yan Yunhe wanted to buy it, but unfortunately he had business to do.

When Liang Yin'er was found, the woman from Wanhualou was sitting in the yard washing her clothes.

She no longer had the same good looks she had when she was in the brothel, she looked rather haggard, when she saw Yan Yun, she stood up in panic, turned around and wanted to run.

No need for Yanyun to say much, Chen Qing stepped forward to arrest him.

I thought she was just a weak woman and should be relaxed, but Yan Yunhe came behind Chen Qing in the next second, lifted the big man, pulled him behind, and blocked Liang Yin'er's wrist with one hand.

Liang Yin'er hid a hairpin in her hand, and there was a faint blue light on the hairpin. Looking at it, she could see the poisonous blood sealing her throat.

"Miss Liang, don't be afraid, we are the people arranged by Master Zhao to protect you." Yan Yunhe said softly.

Liang Yin'er looked at them vigilantly, stepped back step by step, and was not moved by his words: "What Master Zhao, I don't know!"

Yan Yunhe patted Chen Qing on the shoulder and asked him to guard outside the courtyard gate.

After Chen Qing left, Yan Yunhe took out the token of the Imperial City Division: "Young lady, can you recognize this?"

Liang Yin'er stared closely at the token in Yan Yunhe's hand, and only after a while did she let go of the hairpin in her hand.The hairpin fell to the ground with a resounding sound, and Yan Yunhe made the right bet.

Zhao Xiang's backhand is hidden in this woman.

Liang Yin'er's eyes were red. This weak woman fled alone. She was worried for many days, and she was ready to die.

Now, the person she was waiting for finally came.

Yan Yunhe handed over the token, Liang Yin'er carefully looked at the token of the Imperial City Division in his hand, and nodded to Yan Yunhe: "My lord, please follow me."

Chen Qing stayed outside the door for a while, his eyesight was excellent, and he saw a group of people in purple robes and long knives coming on horseback from a distance.

It's Jin Yiwei!

Chen Qing immediately turned around and went to the hospital, while Yan Yunhe was trying to persuade Liang Yin'er to leave with him.

Liang Yin'er was unwilling, she held the door and smiled with tears in her eyes: "If Zhao Lang hadn't entrusted the matter to me, I should have gone with him long ago. Now that the matter is over, I have no more worries."

Chen Qing strode forward: "My lord, Jin Yiwei is here."

Yan Yunhe's eyes sharpened, and then he looked at Liang Yin'er.

Liang Yin'er clasped her hands at her waist, and saluted Yan Yunhe: "Your Excellency, don't worry, I will never reveal any news."

She already had a will to die.

Before she got up, her neck hurt and Liang Yin'er passed out.

Yan Yunhe grabbed her arm, and shoved her into Chen Qing's arms mercilessly: "Take her back to the dim sum shop."

As a married man, Chen Qing is like a hot potato holding Liang Yin'er.

But seeing Yan Yun's harsh words, he didn't dare to delay, he carried the woman on his shoulders, and left through the back door like carrying goods.

Yan Yunhe Fei lay on the eaves, only praying that the Jin Yiwei who came this time was just someone in the group who didn't want to use it.

But the door was kicked open, and the person leading in was Yu Qin wearing the golden mask.

Ling Yan Yunhe not only doubted that he hadn't hurt Yu Qin a few days ago, if not, how could this man be so energetic, and he was still seriously injured and could still be questioned everywhere.

Is it not good to leave this kind of work to the people below?Do you have to do it yourself?

Yan Yunhe slandered in his heart, he got up and performed lightness kung fu, the movement still attracted attention.

He only heard a commotion behind him, and the sound of drawing a knife continued. After a while, someone followed behind him, and his ghost lingered.

Relying on his familiarity with the topography of Kyoto, Yan Yunhe shuttled through the streets and alleys. Not long after, he saw a window wide open, and jumped in.

Someone inside exclaimed, Yan Yunhe took a closer look, he was actually a man wearing only gauze, red lips and white teeth, delicate body and soft body?

Where did he go?

It seems that I passed Wanhualou just now, and the last one on the street of Wanhualou seems to be... Nanfeng Pavilion? !

Yan Yunhe's face was slightly green, but it was too late to escape and choose another hiding place.

He closed the window with his backhand, stepped forward and touched the man's dumb acupoint, then pushed him roughly onto the bed and covered him with a quilt.

The most important thing now is that the fact that he is Yan Yunhe cannot be exposed, Yu Qin has fought against him, if he makes a move, maybe his identity will be discovered.

He couldn't really be captured by Jin Yiwei, he still had something that Liang Yin'er gave him hidden.

Really caught in a dilemma, Yan Yunhe gritted his teeth and looked at the man on the bed.

The other party was trembling, looking back at Yan Yunhe tremblingly, he just felt that this young man was full of evil spirits, he might be about to die on the spot.

Downstairs of Nanfeng Hall.

Qianhu Jiang Song clasped his fists and said to Yu Qin: "My lord, the thief may have hid here, but the subordinates only found out that Yuan Ruxin is also here."

Yu Qin glanced at the signboard of Nanfeng Pavilion: "Old man Yuange's grandson?"

Jiang Song bowed his head and said, "Exactly."

Yuan Ge's grandson liked masculinity, and he often stayed overnight in Nanfeng Hall.

Once Jin Yiwei conducts a massive search, Yuan Ruxin will definitely not be able to escape.It's okay for Yuan Ruxin to be ashamed, but this hit the old Yuange in the face.

Yu Qin pondered for a while: "Go and call the steward of Nanfeng Pavilion."

……

Yan Yunhe leaned against the bed, not long after there were footsteps outside the house, and a flattering voice said: "My lord, this room is a small restaurant that our building just entered, and my temper has not been adjusted..."

Another rough voice said: "Stop talking nonsense, and open the door wide for Grandpa."

The door was pushed open, and Yu Qin walked over the steward and walked in.

According to Jiang Song, the person who escaped from Liang Yin'er's yard entered this house.

There is a sweet and greasy fragrance in the house, and several layers of veils hang down from the roof, flying with the wind.

Yu Qin reached out and lifted the layers of veils, and saw a person lying on the bed.

The man wore half a fox mask on his face, and his body was wrapped in red gauze. He looked like a young man, whose bones were not yet fully developed.

The black curly hair hangs down, and the chin exposed under the mask shows a bit of heroism, but because it is immature, it doesn't seem that this kitsch outfit is so strange.

Yu Qin took a few steps forward, the light in the room changed from dark to bright, he suddenly stopped his body, turned his face sideways, and said to his subordinates: "Go out."

Jiang Song looked at Yu Qin in surprise, but he still took the order to retreat.

The steward rubbed his hands in surprise, he didn't expect the commander of Jinyiwei to be so interested. It would be a good thing if their Nanfeng Pavilion got the protection of Jinyiwei.

Jiang Song looked at the steward with some distaste, and then looked at the room, muttering in his heart.

No way, is Master Yu a manly man?

Still like this young one?
