Order of Heaven

Yue Yin turned over from the edge of the eaves, quietly came to an open window of this room, and jumped in.

Mo Ran pushed open the door, and ran to the palace warily: "My lord, there is movement!"

Gong Que glanced at the corner of the white clothes exposed behind the curtain, pursed his lips and smiled lowly: "It's nothing, don't worry, rest."

Mo Ran looked at his young master's unconscious smile, and was a little confused, but since the young master said it was all right, that's all.

"Yes, son."

After Mo Ran went out and closed the door, Gong Que finally stopped smiling and let out a chuckle.

"How do you know it's me?" Yue Yin came out from behind the curtain, walked a few steps over and sat on the desk in front of Gong Que, holding his hands and looking at Gong Que.

Gong Que put down the scroll in his hand: "I saw you when you came in, how could I not recognize your figure?"

Yue Yin originally thought that his actions were concealed enough, but unexpectedly, he still found out, and suddenly felt bored, and let go of his hands, leaning on the desk.

Gong Que looked at Yue Yin lying in front of him with his arms on his pillow, his eyes were full of smiles, he lowered his head and kissed Yue Yin's lips: "Yin'er, I miss you."

Yue Yin hadn't seen Gong Que for a few months, and the yearning in his heart was no less than that of Gong Que. Dang even reached out and hooked Gong Que's neck, and raised his head to kiss him passionately.

The two reunited after a long absence, and they both kissed a little selflessly. One was sitting on a chair, the other was leaning on a table, and there was nothing but each other in their eyes.

When the two parted, their lips had already turned bright red, and Yue Yin's clothes were a little loose.Gong Que's eyes were blindfolded, he touched Yue Yin's waist with one hand, and pushed away the pen and inkstone on the case with the other, but at this moment Yue Yin sat up suddenly, stretched out his hand to hold Gong Que and walked around his waist hands.

"What did you call me just now?" Yue Yin looked intently at Gong Que's flushed face.

"Yin'er." Gong Que looked at Yue Yin and called again.

Yue Yinxuan got off the desk and stood opposite the palace: "Last time I let you go, but this time it won't work, you should know, it's someone calling me that."

Gong Que's misty eyes were mixed with a few traces of clarity, and after thinking for a while, it seemed that only Yue Yin's parents and sister Yue Ge were the ones who usually called Yue Yin like this.After thinking about it, Gong Que smiled, looked up at Yue Yin, and called again: "Yin."

Yue Yin heard that he changed to only calling by a single name, raised his eyebrows and bent down to stand in front of Gong Que with a smile: "Then I'll call you, Que?"

Gong Que lightly touched Yue Yin's lips and left: "You can do whatever you like."

Yue Yin held his hand and didn't move: "Gong Que, I found that you—" It's really nasty, when I first met you, I didn't expect you to have such a side.

"What's wrong with me?"

"It's nothing, I like it." Yue Yin got up and tidied up his messed up clothes.

Seeing Yue Yin's movements, Gong Que said, "You want to go?"

"Well, you can't stay here overnight." Yue Yin walked to the table outside, pulled a stool and sat down.

Gong Que got up and followed, and sat on the side: "Why not?"

"A man suddenly appeared in the servant's room, what do you think the magistrate will think?" Yue Yin lifted the teapot on the table and wanted to pour himself a glass of water, but was stopped by Gong Que's raised hand.

"The water is getting cold, I'll get someone to bring a new pot." Said Gong Que and was about to get up.

"No need, it's so late." Yue Yin pressed the palace gate.

Gong Que sat down obediently: "How long have you been in Qianzhou? Why didn't you tell me?"

"It's been a few days since I've been here, and I've been shopping in Qianzhou for a few days, and found something." Yue Yin said.

"What?" Gong Que knew that what Yue Yin said was related to the case he came here to investigate.

"Not much, have you heard the story of the white fox?" Yue Yin asked.

"White fox? I've heard about it a little bit." Gong Que replied.

"What do you think?" Yue Yin asked.

"It's unbelievable, it should be just a cover-up." Gong Que liked to lightly tap the table with his fingers as soon as he thought about it.

"Well, I just don't know who made the trick, but I'm sure it's not the owner of this house." Yue Yin said.

"You mean the magistrate Yang Chong? How do you know that?" Gong Que didn't know yet, and the one who came here to investigate was the magistrate Yang Chong.

"I heard it just now when I lay on his roof." Yue Yin said directly.

"You are always so casual, what should you do if you are discovered?" Gong Que said helplessly.

"This magistrate is really useless. If you can't keep the people in Qianzhou City, you can't even keep your own home. If Mo Ran didn't find me, no one here would know that I've been here." Yue Yin was obviously a little bit Disappointed, he turned to look at Gong Que and smiled: "It's not that he's useless, it's that he's useful to find me, isn't there you?"

Gong Que laughed silently when he heard the second half of his sentence, and then froze his face suddenly: "Listen to what you said, if Mo Ran didn't find you, wouldn't you plan to come to me?"

Seeing the change in Gong Que's expression, Yue Yin laughed out loud: "I'll come during the day if I want to find you, what's the point of sneaking in at night, are you having an affair with Mr. Shi Lang?" After Yue Yin finished speaking, he still couldn't stop laughing. .

"Then are we having an affair now?" Gong Que looked at Yue Yue and groaned.

Yue Yin got up and bent down and kissed Gong Que: "Yes, but I have to go now. I will wait for you at Tianfu Inn tomorrow morning." After speaking, Yue Yin turned and walked towards the window where he came in.

"Be careful on the road." Gong Que knew that Yue Yin was good at martial arts, but now that the fog in Qianzhou City was not cleared, it was really uneasy.

Yue Yin waved his hand to reassure Gong Que, jumped out of the window and disappeared into the night.

Early the next morning, Gong Que went straight to Tianfu Inn with Mo Ran.

After Gong Que asked which room Yue Yin was in, he went straight and asked Mo Ran to wait downstairs early.

Walking to the door of the Tianzihao room, the palace didn't knock on the door, just pushed the door and entered, but before taking two steps, I heard the sound of drawing a sword out of its sheath from the inner room, and then the sound of slowly putting the sword back into its sheath , and Yue Yin yawned: "Why did you come so early?"

"Are you still sleeping?" Gong Que walked to the bed and looked at Yue Yue who was sleepy.

"You're here, why should I sleep." He said Yueyin and got up to get dressed.

Moran, who had been waiting downstairs for a while after ordering, finally saw his son and Mr. Yue coming down the stairs together, and immediately raised his hand to indicate that it was this table.

Gong Que and Yue Yin saw it and went to sit down. Mo Ran immediately arranged the bowls and chopsticks for each of them, and smiled at Yue Yin: "Master Yue!"

Yue Yin looked at Mo Ran like that, felt that he was looking at himself as if he was looking at the young lady of the Gong family, and didn't know what Gong Que said to him, so he immediately cast a sideways glance at Gong Que.

Gong Que glanced at Yue Yin inexplicably, and was a little puzzled. After looking at Yue Yin's gaze, he saw Mo Ran's stupid look, and suddenly felt that he was wronged, but he didn't say anything.

After the three of them finished their breakfast, they went out of the city to inspect the mountain where the white fox was hunted according to Gong Que's plan.

An hour later, the three of them arrived at the foot of the mountain following the guidance of passers-by.

Yue Yin looked at the intersection that divided into two roads in front of him, turned to the palace and said, "Is it from the left or the right?"

"Left." Gong Que lifted his foot and walked towards the forked road on the left.

"Master Yue, I also remember that old man said it was on the left, let's go." Mo Ran affirmed.

It's no wonder that Yueyin didn't remember, the scenery along the way was really good, Yueyin forgot what the old man said while enjoying the beautiful scenery while driving.Although it is winter, the road is along a river. The river is very clear. Although the trees on both sides have fallen leaves, it is another scene. In addition, there are some strange rocks, which makes it more interesting. Taste it.

Yue Yin raised his head and glanced at the mountain in front of him, then at the other mountain adjacent to it, then chased after the palace and walked up the mountain.

"Do you think there are any clues on this mountain?" Yue Yin walked to Gong Que and asked.

"It's hard to say, it would be great if there was a snowfall here." Gong Que replied.

"You want to see if you can still meet such a white fox?" Yue Yin said.

"Well, that white fox might be a breakthrough point." Gong Que said.

Yue Yin put his hands behind his head, raised his head and said: "So many people failed to find another white fox back then, let alone us who don't even have snow now." After finishing speaking, Yue Yin put down his hands and turned his head to look at the palace, saying: "Do you think that white fox was deliberately arranged there by someone?"

"Why did you say that?" Gong Que also turned to look at Yue Yin.

"That's just a sudden thought." Yue Yin said with a smile.

The palace pushed aside the branches that blocked the way: "Actually, there is a question that I have been trying to understand. In the past three years, so many middle-aged men have disappeared in Qianzhou City. No one is alive, but why is there no dead body?"

Yue Yin became more focused: "Maybe, those missing people are not dead. Besides, you found out, the missing people are all middle-aged men, women, children and the elderly are all fine."

"Indeed, according to the saying in the city, the white foxes are hunted by middle-aged men, so the white fox only preys on middle-aged men, but how can this nonsense be trusted." Gong Que saw that there was a pothole at Yue Yin's feet, and immediately pulled Yue Yin One: "Be careful."

Yue Yin naturally saw the pothole, even if Gong Que didn't pull him, he wouldn't step on it, he really wanted to say that you don't have to watch me so carefully, but he swallowed the words again, and just smiled at Gong Que: "It's okay. "

"Then, the only missing ones must be because they have some functions that others don't have." Yue Yin turned back to the topic.

"If there is anything that women, children, old and weak do not have, it is that their own physical strength is incomparable to others." Gong Que said while pinching his chin.

"So what is it that makes them need so much labor, we should look into this aspect when we go back." Yue Yin said.

In the end, the three of them basically checked the mountain and found nothing suspicious. They didn't find any hidden caves, only a few shallow caves that seemed to be used by hunters to shelter from the rain.Moreover, there are indeed many wild animals such as foxes and rabbits on this mountain, but they have not found any beasts that are strong enough to attack a mature man, let alone any legendary white foxes.

This trip up the mountain had nothing but a look at the scenery of the mountain. The three of them were indeed tired after climbing the mountain for a day, so they went down the mountain and returned to the city before dark.When going back, Gong Que wanted to stay with Yue Yin at the Tianfu Inn, but in the end Yue Yin was driven back to the Fuya. If the magistrate knew that the magistrate's mansion was good and he insisted on staying in the inn, I'm afraid There will be a lot of rifts.

On the other side, the Chamber of Commerce in Chenzhou City, which had been lively for several days, finally came to an end. After the merchants who came to participate in the Chamber of Commerce gathered together for the last banquet, they bid farewell to each other and left Chenzhou to return to their own regions.

This time, among the leaders selected by the Chamber of Commerce this time, the three giants are indeed the Linglong Silk and Satin Village of the Quan Family of Chenzhou, the Zuixianfang of the Yue Family of Yizhou, and the Qinxin Tea House of the Fu Family of Yizhou. It was released that the new year's goods would be purchased from these leaders, and if they were done well, they would even get the emperor's own handwriting.As soon as the news came out, Xie Xie, who was selected as the leading merchant, smiled happily, and hurried home to prepare the best goods. If he could win the emperor's favor, then the business in the coming year would be even more prosperous.

After getting the news, Yue Zhengming's reaction was quite different from other people's. He just smiled perfunctorily and wondered in his heart who made this idea. He always felt a little uneasy. He had been away from Chenzhou for decades. I don't want to have anything to do with the royal family anymore.

On the day Fu Yun left with Fu Sheng, Quan Ming took Quan Ling to see him off in person.One is that Quan Zhenduo was grateful for the Fu family's care for Quan Ling, and ordered Quan Ming not to be neglected, and the other was that Quan Ling really couldn't bear to part with Fu Sheng, and said that he would send Fu Sheng to the gate of the city before leaving.Quan Ming always felt sorry for his younger sister, so he naturally accompanied her to send the two of them to the gate of the city, and then dragged Quan Ling back to Quan's house, who took one step at a time and looked back three times.

Seeing Quan Ling's infatuated look, Fu Yun kept teasing Fu Sheng on the way, which made Fu Sheng feel ashamed to ride in a carriage with his brother, so he came out and rode a horse to walk with his servant.

The winter wind is blowing harder and harder, and the breath of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger. The drowsy sky seems to be brewing a winter snow.
