Gu Yan chatted with Guang Xuzi for a while, the sky was getting dark, Ye Zi knocked on the door softly outside to urge.Gu Yan couldn't wait for long, so he stood up and said goodbye to Guang Xuzi.

Before leaving, Gu Yan thanked Guang Xuzi: "This time, I would like to thank the Taoist priest for his help, and I will also keep in mind the Taoist priest's point."

Guang Xuzi waved his hand indifferently: "It's a little effort, my lord is very polite."

Gu Yan asked again: "Master Taoist, what do you plan to do with this cat?"

Guang Xuzi looked back at the orange cat on the table, and thought: "I just caught it as a monster, so naturally I can't return it so soon. How about this, the kitten will be taken care of by Pindao for a few days, and I will take care of it here." , How about returning it to the prince?"

But Gu Yan said: "If this cat has a fairy fate, it doesn't matter if it follows the Taoist priest in the future."

Guang Xuzi blinked and said in surprise, "Really?"

Gu Yan hesitated, but still nodded.

After raising it for many years, Gu Yan did have some affection for this cat, but when he thought about how this cat would return home, Ye Zi might be afraid of what it would be like, so he could only reluctantly give up.

Guang Xuzi was overjoyed: "This is a good relationship, the prince can rest assured, the poor will definitely take good care of him."

The orange cat seemed to understand what they said, and frantically scratched the iron cage with its paws.

Gu Yan looked down at it, and said warmly: "Er Bao, don't make trouble, and follow the Taoist obediently in the future, understand?"

The orange cat meowed twice, seeing that Gu Yan had made up his mind, he gave up and broke out of the cage, and sat down obediently in the cage.Gu Yan touched its head, turned and left the room.

Gu Yan closed the door and left. Guang Xuzi couldn't wait to reach into the cage, rubbed the orange cat's fur, and said with a smile: "What's your name? Didn't you hear? He gave you to me. Follow me obediently from now on, It won't make you suffer."

The orange cat immediately put away its obedient appearance in front of Gu Yan, patted Guang Xuzi's hand away with one paw, and patted on the door of the iron cage.

"You want me to let you out?" Guang Xuzi hesitated for a moment, and asked, "It's okay to let you out, but you can't run around. If you want to run away now, all the drama I did during the day will be in vain, understand? "

After he finished speaking, he opened the door of the iron cage.

The orange cat stepped out gracefully, stretched its limbs and stretched itself.

Guang Xuzi didn't care at all, he looked greedily at the soft and fluffy fur of the orange cat, his palms itched.Just as he was about to reach out to touch it, the orange cat seemed to have sensed it, and turned his head to glare at him angrily, Guang Xuzi withdrew his hand guiltily.

Guang Xuzi curled his lips and muttered: "I have helped you so much, you are not grateful at all, and you still treat me like this?"

The orange cat ignored him, jumped off the table, climbed straight to the bed, and lay down in a domineering ball in the middle, then raised its eyelids and glanced at Guang Xuzi.

Guang Xuzi chased after him: "Silly cat, if I don't let you take the blame, won't Young Master Ye suffer? The emperor asked me to catch the monster, and the monster must come out to deal with him. After much deliberation, you are the most suitable!" gone."

The orange cat meowed lukewarmly, which seemed to agree with him.

Guang Xuzi walked over, lay down next to the orange cat, raised his legs in a shapeless manner, closed his eyes and complained: "I am also a Taoist priest, a demon exorcist, and a matchmaker who helps people solve their problems. You say I am Is it easy? I..."

The orange cat groaned a few times from its nasal cavity, closed its eyes and ignored him.

The house returned to silence.

On the other side, Ye Zi changed back to her original attire in the inn, and left the inn through the back door.

When the lights come on, Chang'an Avenue is bustling and lively at night.The two did not let anyone know about their trip, so they did not bring any attendants with them, and they did not have a car when they returned.The two walked slowly on the long street. There were so many pedestrians on the street that it was inevitable to collide with each other.

Ye Zi was worried about Gu Yan's injury, so he pulled him behind him and asked, "My lord, is your injury okay, or I'll find you a sedan chair?"

Gu Yan said: "No need."

"But……"

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Yan took Ye Zi's hand behind his back, held it tightly in his palm, and said in a low voice: "If you are afraid that something will happen to me, hold me tighter."

Ye Zi looked down at the two hands clasped, and nodded lightly: "Okay."

He changed back to his original appearance and makeup, and his pretty facial features became more colorful under the light. Gu Yan looked at it deeply, feeling so grateful for the first time in his heart.

What is he capable of, he has the opportunity to live a new life, and can walk hand in hand with this person on the street.

Ye Zi's status, whether he is a fairy or a demon, is no different to Gu Yan, he doesn't care about it at all.

Just like Guang Xuzi said, the legends of gods and monsters are far away from them, and it is not easy for a person to take care of the people in front of him in a lifetime.

He never wanted to take good care of the people in front of him, just because he wanted to, would give birth to resentment, hatred, and fear.He calculated in every possible way, planning how to avoid the regrets of the past and escape from that ending, while being pushed by reality to take more detours, towards perhaps a darker abyss.

Ultimately, it's all about fear.

Because he couldn't bear to lose anything anymore.

Gu Yan's footsteps gradually slowed down, frowning and darkening his temples.Ye Zi noticed it, and quickly asked, "My lord, your complexion is so bad, do you have a headache again?"

"No." Gu Yan shook his head, "If Pei Ge puts on the medicine, I shouldn't have any problems in the next few days."

Ye Zi frowned, "You can't always be like this..."

"The disease is accumulating in the body, and it's accumulating more and more, but it's good." Ye Zi paused, and then said, "No matter what, you can't drink that medicine anymore when you go back. Ask Dr. Pei to give you some medicine to take care of your body." , This period of time is good for self-cultivation. If your illness recurs so many times, I really..."

Gu Yan responded softly: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The two didn't talk anymore, and no one in the noisy crowd noticed their existence.Gu Yan said earlier that Ye Zi should protect him more, but in the end it was clear that he was the one who protected Ye Zi more.Taking advantage of his height, Gu Yan carefully protected him in his arms, preventing the crowd from crowding him.

Ye Zi hadn't walked the street with him so peacefully for a long time, she couldn't help feeling a little greedy, and her pace slowed down again and again.

But no matter how slow they walked, there would always be a time, the two of them returned to the palace, Gu Yan went to explain what happened today to the princess, and asked Ye Zi to go back to the room and wait.

Knowing that Emperor Jinghe would send someone to the mansion to catch the demon today, Gu Yan thought of a reason in advance to send the Grand Concubine away to avoid side effects.

Gu Yan comforted the princess, and when he returned to the room, Ye Zi was holding a book in front of the case.Seeing Gu Yan coming back, he asked, "What did the princess say?"

Gu Yan closed the door and said with a smile: "What else can I say, I was pissed off by that old bastard Jinghe, and blamed him for taking my cat away."

"The cat princess has been raising her for so many years, so she must have a deep relationship." Ye Zi paused, and then said, "Why don't we wait for this matter, and we will bring the second treasure back?"

Gu Yan said: "Are you not afraid anymore?"

Ye Zi bit her lip, tangled up in every possible way, and finally said truthfully, "I'm afraid..."

"Then let me take it back?"

Ye Zi was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "I can't drive him away just because I'm afraid. Erbao has lived in the mansion for so many years, and he will be sad to be sent away now."

Gu Yan bent down, stroked his hair, and said softly, "You are still so kind."

Ye Zi turned his eyes away: "This has nothing to do with being kind or not."

Gu Yan smiled and said: "Well, after the matter is properly resolved, we will go to see Erbao. If it is willing to come back with us, we will take it back. If he wants to follow Daoist Guangxu, Let it go, too. How?"

Ye Zi nodded, feeling relieved.He thought for a while, and then asked: "Won't the Wen family just let it go like this? I don't know where they learned my identity. Now that I haven't been caught, will they invite other Taoist priests? "

Gu Yan responded, and said: "The Wen family is indeed troublesome. I have already discussed it with Daoist Guangxu. This matter is actually not difficult to solve."

Ye Zi asked, "How to solve it?"

Gu Yan said: "I can't do this matter, it's inconvenient."

Ye Zi didn't understand, and asked again: "Then who should take action?"

Gu Yan didn't answer any more, but Ye Zi would know about it tomorrow.

At noon the next day, a servant really came to report to Gu Yan that the guests had arrived.

Ye Zi followed Gu Yan to the main room to meet guests, and as soon as he reached the door, he heard a familiar voice calling him.

"Little Ye Zi!" The little gray sparrow appeared out of nowhere, jumped in front of Ye Zi, and hugged him tightly.

Ye Zi was caught off guard and hurriedly caught the young boy in front of him.

After the little gray bird followed Gu Jun into the palace, she contacted Ye Zi and told him what happened to him.On the day the little gray bird turned into a human form, Ye Zi was drunk and had only a vague impression of it. At this moment, when he first saw the little gray bird in human form, he still couldn't react.

Gu Yan looked at the little gray bird in front of him who had taken over his concubine, frowned and was about to explode when suddenly a hand stretched out from behind the little gray bird, and carried the little gray bird behind him like a chicken.

Gu Zhen nodded towards Gu Yan with a natural expression: "Cousin, I'm sorry for bothering you."

Gu Yan shook his head: "Go first."

It was lunch time when the two arrived, and Gu Yan told the back kitchen early in the morning to prepare more meals for the two of them, and they all ate in the small pavilion in the other garden.

After the little gray sparrow became a human, she still didn't change her habit of chattering. She casually picked up two mouthfuls of food and kept pestering Ye Zi, "Little Yezi, you don't even know. I heard that someone was coming to catch the demon yesterday. If I was scared to death, I was afraid that the Taoist would arrest me. Later, when I heard Ah Jun say that they had come to Prince Rui's Mansion, I was even more worried and wanted to come to you on the spot.

He curled his lips and looked at Gu Xun reproachfully: "It's all because of Ah Xun, if you insist on locking me up in the palace, you just won't let me out."

Gu Xun raised his eyes calmly, and said, "How can you help if you really come? Are you not afraid of being caught and roasted sparrows?"

The little gray sparrow shrank its neck and muttered: "Why do you roast me, I don't taste good."

The few people stopped talking. During the dinner, Ye Zi sized up Gu Ting intentionally or unintentionally, and vaguely understood what Gu Yan meant yesterday when he said that he wanted others to take action.

The Wen family made a big fuss about monsters, and it wasn't just Gu Yan and Ye Zi who were worried, Gu Xing couldn't be alone.This little sparrow was very confused, if he really invited a mage with strong Taoism, he might not even be able to save his life.

This incident involved Prince Rui's Mansion from the very beginning, so it was naturally difficult for Gu Yan to make a move, but Gu Xun did not have this taboo.

His Royal Highness the Third Prince has never been a simple character.

Ye Zi still remembers that Gu Xun also overturned many stumbling blocks in the process of seizing the heir, and the Wen family was one of them.The Wen family belongs to the prince line, with the prince and queen backing them, and Wen Shuhou is an old minister, and has many cronies in the court.But even so, Gu Xun still grabbed the handle and brought him down in one fell swoop.

According to the book, Gu Jun kept his edge in the early stage, quietly weakening the prince's many forces, and then sat and watched the prince and Gu Yan fight to the death, and finally the fisherman reaped the benefits and became the final winner.

It is most appropriate for such a thoughtful person to entrust the matter to him.

The little gray bird was glared at by Gu Xun, and she obediently shut up and ate without saying anything more.After several people finished eating, Gu Yan asked Ye Zi to take the little gray bird to wander around the palace first, and then he and Gu Xing went into the study to discuss matters.

As long as Ye Zi stayed in the palace, the little gray bird stayed with him for as long as he was familiar with the palace, so there was no need to go shopping.Ye Zi directly took the little gray bird back to the courtyard, and retreated the servants.

Little Grayfinch didn't dare to say much when eating, but now she was alone with Ye Zi and dared to ask: "Little Yezi, have you reconciled with the prince?"

Ye Zi was stunned for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Probably..."

"approximately?"

Ye Zi poured a glass of water for the little gray bird, and said, "I have some guesses in my heart, but I don't dare to ask. Actually, after this incident is over, I don't care so much about it anymore."

The little gray sparrow didn't understand: "How can you not care, his other village..."

Ye Zi shook his head, without further explanation.

In the past few days, Gu Yan had just recovered from a serious illness, and was immediately busy with chores. He didn't want these things to distract him, so he didn't ask any more questions.But despite this, he already had some guesses about who Huaiyuan was.

Because Gu Yan said that he has no one else in his heart.

That person can recognize him in disguise at a glance in the crowd, so why is there any doubt about his sincerity?

So Ye Zi was willing to wait until all the dust settled, and then let Gu Yan tell him everything.

The little gray bird saw that he didn't want to explain, so he didn't ask any more, but moved to Ye Zi's side mysteriously: "Little Ye Zi, I want to ask you a question."

Ye Zi said, "What?"

The little gray bird raised its eyes to look at Ye Zi, with sparkling eyes, and asked earnestly, "What should I do to become a woman?"
