Chapter 25 Gathering(1/4)

After a cup of tea, Xue Cai's door in the inn was knocked on. When he opened the door, he saw Yi Shu. Yi Shu stared at him and then untied his cloak and walked in.

The inn was very large, but Xue Cai had very little luggage. There was a half-open book on the table. Yi Shu picked it up and saw that it was Shijiulang's "Chaohai and Muwu Lu" Volume 2.

Shijiulang was the pen name of the queen of Yan State Xie Changyan when she wrote books. He was also a wonderful person. When he came to Cheng before, Yishu had seen her and admired her very much. However, people were very strange. At that time, she thought Shijiulang was a strange woman dressed as a man and wandered around the world, so she admired her. But when she heard that Shijiulang was Xie Changyan and later married King Yan and became the queen, she felt uncomfortable.

She is very uncomfortable for people who are better than her, especially women.

Therefore, Yi Shu only took a look, then put it back, and smiled and said, "The station is simple, is Xue Xiang bored?"

Xue Cai looked at the yard that had been cleaned up outside and saw a young man in purple standing in the middle of the yard with his hands behind his back to look up at the sky. The young man sensed his gaze and turned around. The two of them looked at each other in the air, without any expression.

Finally, Xue Cai simply stopped closing the door and went back to sit down and read.

He looked cold, and Yi Shu could naturally feel it. When she came to see Ji Ying, Xue Cai was very cold to her. She smiled slightly and said without any worries, "Xue Xiang is busy with everything and can come here. I feel very relieved. This book mentioned a hot spring, built on the hillside of Huangzhu Ridge in the suburbs of Beijing, with fusanthemum flowers blooming around it, and it is blooming and blooming at this time. Are Xue Xiang interested in visiting?"

Xue Caijing looked at the book and said bluntly: "No."

Yi Shu choked and remembered that Xue Cai was arrogant and knew everyone in the four countries. Forget it, he smiled again: "The book also wrote that there is an immortal cave in Fengxian. The scenery inside the cave is very elegant and has all kinds of strange stalactites..."

Xue Cai raised her head from the book and interrupted her impatiently: "Don't go."

Yi Shu's smile could no longer be held back. She stared at Xue Cai, her eyes gradually getting colder: "Since you have no intention of making friends with me, why did you come?"

Xue Cai didn't laugh when she smiled, but Xue Cai laughed instead when she didn't laugh: "Guess."

Yi Shu had a calm face and didn't guess.

Xue Cai put down the book, stood up and walked to her. The two were close at hand. He was one head shorter than her, but Yishu felt uncomfortable in front of him, and his smile that seemed to be unhappy and full of contempt made her even more uncomfortable.

"I will tell you what I will do. I let everyone know that I am here in Chengguo. When they thought I would go to your fucking husband-selecting banquet, that day, I would dress beautifully, ride a horse out for a walk around and take a look, and then go to your most famous brothel and drink, but don't go to the palace. What do you think the people of Chengguo will say? What will the people in the world say?"

Yi Shu's face turned pale. What would the people in the world say? Of course they would make fun of her - so what if she is the queen, Xue Cai wouldn't give you a face! Not only did she not give it, she also came to the door to slap you in the face!

"Don't you want to disgust the queen of our country? I'm also disgusting you - this is my purpose in Chengguo." Xue Cai smiled, revealing a row of fair teeth, with an unintentional innocence and a deliberate viciousness.

Yi Shu could no longer control himself, and was so angry that he was trembling: "As the appearance of a country, you are so playful!"

Xue Cai said leisurely: "It's not as much as Your Majesty."

Yi Shu shook his sleeves, turned around and walked to the threshold, and hung the door heavily: "You will regret it. Xue Cai, you will definitely regret it if you humiliate me like this!"

"Okay, I'll wait." Xue Cai replied casually.

Yishu's pupils turned dark, and her hatred was so strong that she almost overflowed. She gritted her teeth and finally walked quickly through the courtyard and returned to the carriage she had arrived.

Yuan Su, who had been looking at the sky in the yard, turned back to the room and looked at Xue Cai in the room again. Yuan Su suddenly said, "Your face is wise, but your life is difficult to last for a long time if you die."

Xue Cai burst out laughing and ignored him at all.

Yuan Su turned around and caught up with Yishu.

Yishu was in the carriage and indeed scratched the tassels on the brocade bed hard, trembling with anger.

Yuan Su looked at her like this and silently picked up the sand table, deducing it while saying: "I think Xue Cai has a life of not a long time, and Your Majesty doesn't need to be too angry."

"Of course he has no life! I wanted to save his life, but now..." Yi Shu smiled coldly, "Three days later, it will be his death!"

Yuan Su stared at the pattern in the sand tray, his eyebrows slightly frowned, as if he was thinking.

Yi Shu suddenly thought of something, lifted the curtain and ordered the guards, "Send the order to list "Chaohai Muwulu" as a banned book, and it is not allowed to be sold again! All those who have been bought are burned!"

The guards were confused, but they were already used to Yishu's inexplicableness and went to execute without asking.

Yishu fell back to the couch, but felt extremely unhappy and said hatefully: "I really should have listened to you, I shouldn't have taken this trip."

Yuan Su looked up from the sand table and looked at her calmly and said, "Your Majesty doesn't come, so there is nothing to do, but you come, and you will fulfill your friendship with Bai Zehou. Your Majesty is a kind person."

Yi Shu felt that this sentence had really reached his heart, and his anger was suddenly wiped out: "I am really my confidant when I see you."

Yuan Su didn't say anything anymore, and looked down at the sand table. Yi Shu kept looking at him, trying to touch him several times, but in the end he did nothing.

She just looked at him affectionately, her eyes full of joy.

As long as I look at this person, I am very happy.

***

After Yishu and Yuan Su left, a figure flashed, closed the door, and then pounded the wall and laughed.

First, he chuckled, then he turned into a big laugh.

Xue Cai looked at the man with a helpless look on his face and said, "Aren't you afraid that Yi Shu will find you here?"

"The most dangerous place is the safest place! If she knew I was there and witnessed how she was frustrated throughout the whole process, it would probably be Zhou Yu's second." The person who came was Yi Fei, who said, turned around and walked to Xue Cai to sit down, looking at him eagerly, hoping that he would say "Why is Zhou Yu's second?" and then he could explain: "I'm so angry that I'm so angry."

Unexpectedly, Xue Cai didn't ask, not only did he not ask, but he lowered his head to read a book, looking like he didn't want to talk to him.

Yi Fei raised his hand and put the book together: "Don't read it, what's the book of the rival in love? What's the good thing about it?"

This time, Xue Cai finally frowned and asked, "What love rival?"

"Everyone in the world knows that King Yan loves you..." Yi Fei blinked in a naughty way, "His wife is naturally your rival." After saying that, he shouted in his heart: Refute, refute me quickly!

As a result, Xue Cai just said no, and actually agreed, and said lightly: "This book is well written."

Yi Fei held it in his heart in one breath and suddenly felt that he had repeated his sister's previous mistakes.

But his treatment was different from Yishu in the end. Xue Cai turned the book to a certain page and pushed it in front of him: "Xie Changyan pointed out in the book two years ago that there are too many hot springs in Luwan, and there are still sinking from time to time."

Yi Fei was stunned and immediately picked up the book and read it seriously.

"She visited twenty old wells. People said that in the early years the well water was only one meter above the ground. Now the rope of the bucket had to be added to twenty meter before it could be hit. In the long run, Luwan would become a funnel with deep in the middle and shallow around... it would..."

"The sea water flowed back!" Yi Fei closed the book and looked serious, "And this happened half a year ago."

"So, isn't this book written well?"

"How come such a good book has not attracted attention in Cheng's territory?" Yi Shu is indeed a waste!

"A blinding leaf can only see the fallen leaves in front of you withered and yellow, and the whole tree behind you is flinched. In fact, compared to this, the danger of Ruyimen is nothing..." The sea water flows backwards, flooding fertile fields, and hundreds of thousands of people have no home and no food to eat. That is the real disaster.

Yi Fei pondered and said, "As for this reason, Yuan Su really did something good."

"Do you think so?" Xue Cai raised his eyebrows, "As soon as the queen ascended the throne, this person returned to Luwan, rose step by step, and became a favorite. Isn't it a coincidence?"

Yifei stared at Xue Cai's eyes, "Is it the matter?"

"Why did Yishu come to me alone late at night? Don't you be curious?"

"Yes. If you..." Yi Fei's gaze swept over Xue Cai, "If it's bigger, she can explain it as looking for you to have fun."

Xue Cai ignored his joke and continued: "She didn't have to go this trip, she didn't have to see me, and she didn't have to be angry with me. She wanted to invite me to go to Huangzhu Ridge and Xianren Cave, and it wouldn't be too late to mention it after the feast."

Yifei concluded: "What does she want to do to transfer you away."

"I can't think of any other reason other than that."

"You designed your husband to force her to ward off, but she wanted to catch us all in one place."

"Yi Shu is not a really brainless woman."

"But she wants to show mercy to you again... Why?"

"Maybe it's because of this--" Xue Cai raised her sleeve, and a white Ze's totem was embroidered on the corners of her sleeve.

Yi Fei sneered and said, "When did Yi Shu have such a strong sense of friendship?"

"Many people are ruthless to the living, but are affectionate to the dead. Because the dead can give them a complete sense of security." So Yi Shu thought of Ji Ying, and all he thought of was his goodness, so he felt that he was more grateful to him and wanted to do something for him.

"We have been making arrangements for a long time, but we didn't realize that Yishu is also making arrangements. Where is her layout?"

Xue Cai was silent for a long time before he slowly said two words: "Yuan Su."

***

Yishu first sent Yuan Su back to his residence before returning to the palace. When he returned to the palace, it was almost my son.

The palace maids stepped forward to dismantle the hair for her. When she saw somewhere on the bronze mirror, her eyes moved slightly and said, "No need, you all retreat."

The palace maids bowed and retreated.

The bronze mirror was inlaid with jewelry, and a snake was entrenched on the top of the mirror. The snake's eyes were made of movable rubies. They were originally open, but they were closed at this moment. So Yi Shu knew that the man was here.

"I'm so late and I'm still coming to see me. Is there something big of a problem?" Yishu sat down in front of the dressing table and asked while dismantling the hair personally.

An old man slowly walked out of the curtain beside the bed, a very beautiful old man, who was neither someone else, but Pin Congmu.

The expression on Pin Congmu's face was not very good at this moment: "You shouldn't go to see Xue Cai."

"Oh? Why?" Yi Shu couldn't help thinking when she asked this. If the person who said this was Mrs. Ruyi, she would definitely not dare to ask back.

"Xue Cai is very alert. If you leave this, he will definitely be suspicious. In addition, there are many people in the court who help him openly and secretly, if you find something..."

Yi Shu smiled faintly: "But a young child, even if he was taught by Mr. Bai Ze, he would not be able to predict things as if he wanted to do so."

Pin Congmu frowned.

"Don't be nervous, everything will come naturally, just like last year's Kareem Mountain, boom--it's just over."

Pin Congmu whispered: "Qi'er is back."

Yi Shu's expression moved slightly. She naturally had seen Qi'er. In fact, the first person to come to contact her in Ruyi Sect was Qi'er.

She still remembered that it was a snowy night six years ago. She stumbled on the streets of Luwan and didn't want to go back to the palace. When the snow fell on her, she couldn't feel the cold. On the contrary, she felt hot. There were whip marks on her body, which hurts hotly. She only thought about one thing in her mind: soon dawn, soon dawn. When dawn is dawn, the pain will pass. When it doesn't feel the pain, you can fall asleep.
