They say it's sick

When we met each other just now, although Li Yan's face was reddish, and his body exuded a faint smell of alcohol, his speech was very clear, and he looked normal. After walking a few steps behind him, Yun Zhi realized that this man was already drunk it's -

There may still be a residual clarity in his mind, but every step he steps on the ground is actually shaking.

Yun Zhi stretched out her hand to gently support Li Yan's arm, lest he accidentally wander out of the corridor and fall into the lotus pond: "Did you drink a lot just now?"

"Ok?"

Li Yan's footsteps paused slightly, his eyes lowered, and he slowly landed on the hands on his sleeves.It was really a beautiful hand, with well-defined joints, fair skin, slightly blue veins on the back of the hand, and looked thin and powerful.

Probably because of the drunkenness, for a moment, Li Yan felt that he wanted to reach out and hold this hand firmly.

But fortunately, although he doesn't drink very well, and his reaction is slowed down by the alcohol, his self-control is not bad.

He slowly peeled his gaze away from that hand, shook his head vigorously, reminding himself of Yun Zhi's words just now: "It's not too many, two."

"Two?" Yun Zhi tilted her head, obviously in disbelief.

Although he had the experience of drinking together, but at that time he was still ill and disheartened, and had no time for other things, but he also had the impression that the two of them drank up two jars of wine that day, and when they left, Li Yan still had the same expression as usual. Say goodbye to yourself.

"To tell you the truth, today is the second time I've had a drink at this age..." Seeing Yun Zhi's expression, Li Yan laughed. He straightened his back slightly to make himself look more sober, "On New Year's Eve It was the first time, I didn't feel anything when I drank it, but the next day I got up dizzy, with a headache that was about to explode, and I lay down on the carriage for the whole journey."

Yun Zhi blinked, and then laughed: "Then we're even, I burned for two days after drinking, and was held down on the bed for more than half a month, and the whole house came to watch over me."

"It's worse for you..." Li Yan raised his eyes, "Yun Shu said that you don't like to drink medicine, so the half month should be very difficult."

"You brat, Shu'er..." Yun Zhi covered her lips and coughed lightly, "I...that was to coax him to drink medicine on purpose, you wouldn't take a five-year-old kid's words seriously, would you?"

"I didn't believe it at first." Li Yan had a serious face, but he couldn't help laughing when Yun Zhi looked over.

Yun Zhi raised her eyebrows, and was about to refute when Li Yan, who was still smiling, suddenly spoke.

"It's pretty good..." he said, "It means that your life is good and you don't have to suffer."

Yun Zhi was stunned, and his eyes stopped on Li Yan's pale face, although it was slightly reddish: "You have taken so much medicine, your life should be cured."

Li Yan bent his eyes: "Okay..."

It wasn't very far all the way to the gate of the Wangfu, although he deliberately slowed down because of the drunken Li Yan, the time to talk came.

Xiao Luo had just sent away a group of guests and had some free time. She turned her head and saw these two people walking with their arms supported. There was a moment of surprise on her face. After he had greeted Yun Zhi, her eyes fell on Li Yan's flushed face. Going up, he understood immediately, raised his eyebrows and asked: "Did those guys drink you?"

"Who in the entire family doesn't know that I'm weak and sick, who dares to pour me wine?" Li Yan rubbed his forehead, "It was the prince who passed by just now, and I drank a couple of glasses. I felt a little dizzy, and I'm fine."

"Go back and rest if you have nothing to do..." Xiao Luo said, "I have asked someone to decoct the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor yesterday, and I will send it to your room later, drink it before resting."

Hearing the word "medicine", Li Yan curled up his lips, and looked at Yunzhi: "I don't know you're busy, so I came here to see off Young Master Yun."

Xiao Luo glanced at him, then turned to Yunzhi: "Today there are many people in the mansion, so I have neglected Young Master Yun."

"You're being polite..." Yun Zhi replied with a smile, "The banquet is exquisite and the tea is delicious, I'm the one who bothered you."

After saying this, he raised his eyes and looked at the streets and alleys. A carriage was parked there. Chen Jin, who was wearing a robe with small sleeves, sat on the carriage and looked over from a distance.

Yun Zhi nodded lightly: "The mansion is here to pick you up, so I'll take my leave first."

Xiao Luo returned the courtesy: "Go slowly..."

Yun Zhi turned her eyes slightly, glanced at Li Yan who was standing quietly on the side, turned around and walked towards the carriage parked in the opposite street.

Chen Jin yawned for a long time. Seeing Yun Zhi approaching, he turned back and lifted the curtain of the car, but his gaze was still on the entrance of the palace. Seeing the very familiar face turn around and enter the palace, he raised his hand slightly. Mei followed Yunzhi into the carriage.

Yun Zhi leaned against the wall of the car, slightly closing her eyelids.

He also drank a lot of wine at the banquet just now, although he was not as drunk as Li Yan, he also felt a little sleepy after being idle.

Hearing Chen Jin's movement, he moved to the side: "It's only a few steps away, why come here to pick him up?"

"Brother Li, I don't worry about you. I always feel that we have long been able to be alone. Young Master Yun is still a child who needs to be taken care of, and he is new to the place where he is not familiar with. He is going to a dragon's pool and a tiger's den like the Huai'an Palace..." Chen Jin sat next to him Then, he lifted the curtain of the car and looked out again, "I'm not mistaken, that's Li Yan just now, and he also came to the palace for a banquet?"

"It's him..." Yun Zhi replied, "He is now the book of Huai'an Palace."

"The book of Huai'an Prince's Mansion?" Chen Jin thought for a while, "Li Xuan relied on the late Emperor to become the governor of Pingzhou, and now he wants to curry favor with Huai'an King? No, why do I remember his father-in-law Zheng...what is Zheng?" with?"

Yunzhi said: "Zheng Lian..."

"Yes, Zheng Lian, isn't he a relative of the former prince Yue's family?" Chen Jin clapped his hands, "When the first prince fell, Zheng Lian's family was implicated in it, and died of illness after confiscating his family. Yes, if it wasn't for the protection of the first emperor, Li Xuan might have been involved, and he can still make friends with King Huai'an now?"

"The king of Huai'an is powerful now, if he can make friends with him, of course Li Xuan would be happy. But... I don't know what happened back then, but Li Yan has not had a good life these years.

He harbored resentment towards Li Xuan, and it was impossible for Li Xuan to take a liking to him.If you want to make friends with King Huai'an or anyone else, you won't go through his hands. "The carriage started, and Yun Zhi shook it twice, his thoughts drifted away, "So Li Yan appeared in the Huai'an Palace, it was more for himself, after all, he didn't intend to be a hostage when he came to the capital.Probably because he saw the situation in the capital clearly after he came, and felt that it was more useful to enter the palace than to be in front of the emperor.As for how to do it, I don't know. "

"When I was in Pingzhou, I thought this guy was not simple..." Chen Jin thought, "It just so happens that the person who was sent to investigate the past traces of the "bandits" is still in Pingzhou, why don't you send a letter to let him know?" They also checked Li Yan's life experience by the way? "

"His life experience has nothing to do with what we want to investigate..." Yun Zhi thought for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes, "I have someone else to investigate, and the man with tattoo marks on his face at the gate of the palace just saw it." ?"

"I see, just now I wondered, this person's clothes should be unusual..." Chen Jin said, "Why did he get tattooed?"

"He is Xiao Luo, the steward of Huai'an Palace..." Yunzhi lowered his eyes, "Tattoo punishment is nothing unusual. Back then, King Huai'an was involved in the rebellion case of the late emperor's three princes, and the entire family was exiled. Quite a few of them have been tortured by tattoos, he should be the old man of the palace. But I think he..."

He thought for a while, but did not assert: "Send someone to investigate quietly, first, what is the status of Guanshi Xiao in the palace before King Huai'an's accident."

"This kind of trivial matter..." Chen Jin curled his lips, "You can find out if you ask two old people from back then?"

"Don't forget that this is the capital city. Under the eyes of King Huai'an, he is asking about the people in his mansion in a grand manner..." Yunzhi snorted softly, "He will come to the door the next day and strip you naked to hang in the air." It's raining in his house."

"Understood, I'll check it myself, and I won't disturb anyone..." Chen Jin leaned against the wall of the car, "You met King Huai'an today, how was it?"

"It's almost the same as the rumors..." Yunzhi recalled the aura that Xiao Duo had when he met in the gazebo, "It is indeed a character that has been cultivated through battle and determination, but it's not just like the rumors."

"What do you mean?"

Yun Zhi shook her head, and slightly closed her eyes: "We only met each other and said a few words, but it's not enough to speculate on a person."

"I'm not interested in who the King of Huai'an is, and whether he is manipulating the government..." Chen Jin hesitated for a moment, and his voice became softer, "Actually, from that day on, you said that the son's death had another mastermind." Since then, I've been thinking...the one who fears the Marquis's Mansion the most is the King of Huai'an. Otherwise, what is the reason for calling you here from all over the world? So, could it be him who is responsible for the son's affairs? ..."

"He is afraid of the Marquis House, but there is no need to take the initiative to make trouble..." Yun Zhi raised his eyes, "Unless there are other reasons, I can't think of a reason for him to do something to Big Brother."

"Other reasons..."

Chen Jin thought for a while, finally shook his head, and sighed deeply.

"I said he didn't need to make trouble, but it doesn't mean that he has no suspicion..." Yun Zhi was silent for a while, and then said suddenly, "Before the truth is found out, all the courts, civil and military officials, and even high-ranking officials I don't believe in any of the ninety-five respects."

Chen Jin was taken aback, and slowly opened his eyes wide: "Then, the culprit is..."

"I said..." Yunzhi closed her eyes again, "No matter who it is, I want him to pay for my elder brother's life."

His face was calm, as if he was just chatting, but only the trembling eyelashes revealed the emotions in his heart.

Chen Jin looked at him for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay!"

Although the horse-drawn carriage had to take the main road, it was not that far after all. It passed through the streets and lanes all the way, and it didn't take long for it to stop slowly.

Yun Zhi opened his eyes, his eyes were clear.

He opened the curtain of the car, looked at the word "cloud" on the lantern outside the courtyard door, and was silent for a moment, then patted Chen Jin on the shoulder lightly: "Go home..."
