The last time Zhan Ning'er went back from the Central Plains, she met Xu Boyi on the road, fell in love at first sight, and was "shaken" by Ye Xiaotian in Huang County.

Although those Tusi lords in Guizhou are local emperors, their safety and wealth are still affected by the true dragon emperor in the Central Plains after all, so they will also maintain some kind of contact with the magnates of the imperial court.

However, this kind of contact is not frequent, and Zhan Ning'er is not the contact person between the two sides for a long time, this time she came in a hurry, she didn't bring any tokens, and when she arrived in Nanjing City, her eyes were black, and she didn't know where to go to inquire about Ye Xiaotian's news, so she thought of the Xu family.

The Xu family is the first family of the Ming Dynasty, and the guests are like clouds every day, and the soldiers guarding the door remember who she is, and she can't take out any tokens, and she doesn't even have a worship sticker, so she was stopped at the door.

Xu Qiyun is not a few years older than Zhan Ning'er, the last time Zhan Ning'er came to the Wei State Mansion, Xu Qiyun was in charge of hospitality, and the two have always been known as brothers and sisters, so Xu Qiyun recognized her at a glance.

Zhan Ning'er stepped forward and said, "Brother Shi, you are back, my leg is about to break." ”

Xu Qiyun smiled: "Shimei said that you are laughing, why are you here?" ”

Zhan Ning'er said: "I came this time to ask you for help with something. ”

Zhan Ning'er turned sideways, motioned for Xia Yingying to step forward, and said to Xu Qiyun: "This is my sworn sister, surnamed Xia." She...... A friend of hers was detained in Nanjing for some reason, but there are too many of you at the entrance of the Nanjing City Yamen, and we don't know where he is being held. ”

Xu Qiyun looked at Xia Yingying's appearance, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

In fact, the three tigers in Guizhou have their own appearances, and Zhan Ning'er's appearance is not bad, but Zhan Ning'er is more heroic. At this time, when I look at Xia Yingying's pointed chin, big watery eyes, snow-white skin that blows to the bold, and delicate posture like a willow, I naturally have a special appetite.

However, Xu Qiyun is a disciple of the Guogong Mansion after all, and he has seen a lot of strange flowers in the world, so he was just amazed, and immediately regained his polite appearance, and smiled at Xia Yingying: "Hello Miss Xia." ”

"Ahem! Are you going to stand in front of this house and talk? The man in black, with a pair of starry eyes, kept staring at Xia Yingying for a moment. Hearing this, he suddenly stepped forward and said.

Xu Qiyun suddenly said: "Yes, yes, Xu is really sluggish, two girls, please please, please talk to the house." Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce, this brother is surnamed Li. Li Xuancheng is the uncle of today's country. ”

The current emperor Wanli is not very old, and the younger brother of his mother, Empress Dowager Li, is only a few years older than him. Empress Dowager Li was able to be elected to the palace as a woman from a small family until she became the queen and the queen mother. Nature, beautiful and beautiful, fragrant and beautiful. How can her younger brother and her mother's compatriots look bad, they are really rich and jade. Qingjun and gentle.

Xia Yingying was asking for help, so she didn't show her brutal temperament, and followed the etiquette of the Central Plains. To give a blessing to this uncle, Li Xuancheng hurriedly reached out to hold it, and as soon as his hand was stretched out, he felt that it was inappropriate, and he hurriedly retracted it, and smiled awkwardly: "Girl doesn't have to be formal, please, please enter the house quickly." ”

Xu Qiyun saw Li Xuancheng's cramped appearance, and couldn't help but smile secretly: "This uncle has been to the Tao since he was a child, and it is said that he has long had the intention to become a monk and devote himself to cultivation, but he doesn't want to see this Xia girl lose his temper like this, could it be that he fell in love at first sight and liked someone?" ”

Xu Qiyun invited Zhan Ning'er and Xia Yingying into the mansion, and listened to them tell Ye Xiaotian's identity and situation, and he didn't connect Zhan Ning'er's mouth with this loyal and courageous, two-sleeved breeze, asking for life for the people, and being upright and loyal, but he was framed by traitors and unjustly imprisoned, and the bastard who fanned the flames and set up seedlings to coax him in front of the light smoke building just now, so that he had to gamble with someone and see that he wanted to lose all his private money.

Xu Qiyun agreed: "Don't worry, although there are many yamen in Nanjing City, there are not many who have the right to accept prisoners. It's getting late today, send someone to go at this time, I'm afraid that there is no one in the yamen, and tomorrow morning, Xu will send someone to the yamen to help you inquire, and you can live in my house with peace of mind. ”

Zhan Ning'er didn't see it either, and said, "In this way, thank you brother Shi." ”

Uncle Li Guo coughed and said, "Since the two girls have lived in Guiyang for a long time, it is rare to come to Nanjing. Why don't you make a guide for the two girls tomorrow and take a tour of Nanjing? ”

Xia Yingying was secretly annoyed: "Brother Xiaotian is suffering in prison, drinking cold water and gnawing on the head of the nest, who has the leisure to accompany you to visit Nanjing City, this uncle of the country is so unreasonable." ”

She glanced at Li Xuancheng unhappily, and said coldly: "Brother Xiaotian's whereabouts are still unknown, and the little woman doesn't have the heart to visit Nanjing City." ”

Li Xuancheng's expression moved, and he hurriedly said: "Brother Xiaotian? The girl's surname is Xia, but the person's surname is Ye, I don't know ...... girl and him."

Zhan Ning'er has traveled to the Central Plains, and knows that these Central Plains people have many rules, especially the dignitaries, who attach great importance to etiquette, if they know that Ye Xiaotian is Xia Yingying's lover, and the two have not been agreed by the family, Xia Yingying will travel thousands of miles for Ye Xiaotian to run like this, and will be looked down upon by these stupid Central Plains people, Yingying has a naïve temperament, and does not know the height of the sky, if she gets entangled in this matter, it will not be beautiful.

She immediately took the corner of Xia Yingying's clothes and said quietly: "Oh, Ye Dianshi once saved Miss Xia's life, and the two became brothers and sisters with different surnames. It was because of Ye Dianshi's fall this time that Miss Xia was so anxious. ”

Xia Yingying blinked, and said in her heart: "Isn't it you the person who Brother Xiaotian sacrificed his life to save him, how did it arrange it to me, what kind of brothers and sisters with different surnames, is the relationship between me and Brother Xiaotian unsightly?" Thinking so, she also knew that Zhan Ning'er must have a reason for saying this, so she didn't say anything.

When Li Xuancheng heard this, he said angrily: "Since he is Miss Xia's brother-in-law, then tomorrow Li will accompany the two girls to various yamen to inquire about his whereabouts." ”

When Xia Yingying heard this, her expression suddenly turned pale, and there was a smile on her face.

Xu Qiyun glanced at Li Xuancheng helplessly, and said in his heart: "Uncle Guo, what kind of excitement are you making, you are from the capital, there are not many people in Nanjing who know you, it is difficult for you to go everywhere." Just show your identity as an uncle?

Besides, what our civil officials in the Ming Dynasty hate the most is the emperor's relatives and eunuchs, as soon as they see the emperor's relatives and eunuchs, they are like a fighting meeting a fighting, for fear of missing this good opportunity to become famous, do you think they will buy your account? ”

Xu Qiyun sighed secretly, originally there was still a bit of a perfunctory meaning, but now this uncle who is not familiar with world affairs has also inserted a lever, and he can't do it if he doesn't want to.

Yang Fugui, the director of the Criminal Department, walked home tremblingly in a small green sedan chair carried by the two of them. Not far behind, a young man led a Dian horse, which was not much bigger than a donkey. On horseback sat an old man with his shoulders on his back, following not far away.

The old man on horseback squinted his eyes, looked at the green sedan chair in front of him with compassion, bent his waist even more, and said in a low voice: "Where is this person, can you find out the news?" ”

The young man who was leading the horse said, "Elder Dong, Su Xuntian told us very clearly, the person was taken to the criminal department, and I have been staring at the entrance of the criminal department just now. This person is an official from the Criminal Department, and he can't be wrong. ”

The old man on horseback nodded slightly, squinted his eyes and stared at the green sedan chair again, and stroked his beard gently.

"Sir. You're home. ”

The two sedan chair drivers stopped the sedan chair, and as soon as the sedan curtains were played, Yang Fugui bent down and walked out of the sedan chair, and the two sedan chair men lifted the sedan chair and left.

Yang Fugui is just the head of the Criminal Department. The sedan chair man at home is inevitably a little swaggering, so he rents a sedan chair, and is only responsible for carrying him to the government every morning and evening. This is the case with many officials with lower official positions and a penchant for playing music.

Director Yang took eight steps, and was about to enter the door with three shakes, when someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder. Director Yang turned his head unhappily, and there was a tall old man in a black robe standing in front of him, half-bald on the top of his head, with a fleshy nose and squinting eyes, looking very unpleasant, and a handsome young man next to him was holding him, who seemed to be his grandson, so he said impatiently: "What are you doing?" ”

Elder Dong asked with a smile, "Excuse me, are you an official in the Criminal Department?" ”

Director Yang's expression suddenly froze, his eyes became dull, and he said in a slow, undulating tone: "Yes!" ”

Elder Dong said: "There is a canon named Ye Xiaotian, who was sent from Huxian County, Guizhou, but was taken into custody by your Criminal Department?" ”

Director Yang was still expressionless, and said slowly: "Ye Xiaotian......, I remember." This man was not imprisoned. ”

When Hua Yunfei heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Not in prison?" Have you killed him? ”

Chief Yang turned a deaf ear to his words, as if he couldn't hear anyone or any voice at all at this moment, except for Elder Dong's voice. Elder Dong was also anxious, and hurriedly asked, "Has he already been executed?" ”

Director Yang said: "There is no execution, he is now living in the post house." ”

Elder Dong had also traveled the world when he was young, and he had more knowledge in this area than Hua Yunfei, so he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "Post house? Wasn't he taken to Nanjing for trial, and how did he live in a post house? ”

Director Yang said: "Qin lost his deer, and the heroes chased it together." Now that the overall situation is undecided, who will pay attention to the idle matter of a small canonical history, this Ye Xiaotian is lucky, presumably there is no big problem. ”

Although his thinking was controlled by Elder Dong with Gu poison, except that Elder Dong saw nothing, heard nothing, and looked sluggish, his thinking was still normal, and he actually habitually dragged sentences. Elder Dong and Hua Yunfei glanced at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

Elder Winter raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where is that pavilion?" ”

Chief Yang replied with a dull gaze, and Elder Dong and Hua Yunfei left in a hurry.

After a while, the courtyard door of the Yang principal's house creaked open, and the Yang family lady came out of the courtyard, glanced strangely at the man standing in front of the door, and then looked at a little lady who was walking swaying on the road ahead, twisted the man's ears angrily, and shouted: "Let me in!" What are you staring at the little lady of the people? Don't be afraid to lose your soul! ”

A series of screams came from the yard from Yang Fugui, who had just woken up: "Oops, let go, let go!" I didn't watch it, I didn't see any little lady! It's weird, I just seem to have lost my soul, oops, I'm telling the truth......"
