I looked at him in surprise: "Who picked them up? When?"
"Just the day before my sister came back, Nan Zitai from Miaoshan Sect came to pick them up."
“…”
Nan Zitai, Nan Zhenyi's nephew.
It turned out that at that time he left Xishan Academy one step earlier than us just to pick up Ye Yunshuang and Princess Ling from the Yan family.
I thought about it and said, "They won't have anything to do, right?"
Qingchen smiled faintly: "Sister, don't worry about her. Although Master Ye clearly rewarded and punished, that person was his daughter, and he had a granddaughter. How could he be cruel to him?"
“…”
It turns out that Ye Yunshuang is really the daughter of Sect Master Ye.
I have thought about it like this before, but I have no clue about this matter, and I think it will be of no benefit to me. Now that Qingchen says this, I can truly confirm Ye Yunshuang's identity. My brows couldn't help but frowned and said, "Sect Master Ye, have you sent your daughter to the capital?"
Qingchen said lightly: "This matter has nothing to do with Master Ye, it was Ye Yunshuang's own wishful thinking. However, it would be better for him to take over the mother and daughter. Since the emperor is about to enter Xichuan, there must be an explanation for these matters. Sister doesn't have to worry about them."
I understood something from his indifferent words.
I nodded gently: "I understand."
"Sister, go back and rest for a while. When the meal starts, I will ask you to come and invite you."
"Um."
After returning to the room to wash my face, I lay lazily on the head of the bed, and I felt a little drowsy, but as soon as I closed my eyes, my mind was extremely clear. I recalled the first time I saw Ye Yunshuang. Later, she struggled in the palace step by step, and even gave birth to a daughter for Pei Yuanhao, and walked on the verge of life and death several times.
It turns out that she is the daughter of Sect Master Ye.
I thought it was another me, but when I recalled her obsessive look at Pei Yuanhao and her forbearance and care over the years, I just felt that this girl was really not easy.
Fortunately, when something happened to her, I saved her, and Pei Yuanhao didn't really attack her. Otherwise, he would have been in Xi'an Prefecture.
However, leaving her behind may not be a turning point.
As I thought about this, sleepiness came like a tide, gradually swallowing me up, and I slowly closed my eyes.
When Susu and the others came to call, I had already had a sleep. The table was about to start. Susu hurriedly combed my hair, changed into clean clothes and went over. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Yan Qingchen and Slang Jiangcuo sitting at the table, with wine and food on the table. Seeing that I was going, Slang Jiangcuo immediately stood up and said, "Qingying, you are here."
I smiled and walked over and sat down.
Although the three of us have different identities, because of the time we spent together when we were young, we were not facing the head of the Yan family and the young master of the Tusi family when we sat down, but our childhood friends, and we didn’t have much tension. The three of us were drinking and laughing, talking about the things we were having when we were young. Silang Jiancuo had a good alcohol tolerance, but for some reason he quickly turned red and said, “Don’t mention the things we used to do now. Now that we are old, why do we still mention the things we did at that time?”
I smiled and said, "Yes, everyone is different from before. Speaking of which, when I saw you in Qingtang City, I didn't dare to recognize you, as if I had changed my own person."
Speaking of this, he looked at me, coughed lightly, and said, "Sir, three days away, should treat each other with admiration."
“…”
"I'm not what I used to be."
Qingchen glanced at him with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth.
I smiled and said, "But, speaking of it, we haven't sat together like this for many years."
Slang Jiangcuo also said: "Everyone has been doing his own over the years. However, I still often care about you in my heart - it's great that you can meet you again."
He said, looking at me again: "Qingying, if you have anything else you need me to do, just tell me."
I felt more and more embarrassed, and I just smiled embarrassedly.
Yan Qingchen suddenly smiled and said, "No wonder you have never been to Chengdu again in the past few years. Is it because my sister is not here?"
Silang Jiangcuo was stunned by his words, as if he had been told to the point, but immediately said, "That's not the case. In fact, over the years, my father often mentioned Uncle Yan and Qingying and you. This time I wrote a letter to him to prepare horses. He heard that Qingying wanted it, so he immediately ordered it. By the way, Qingying, my father said that he would come to see you."
"I just asked my uncle to come to see me?"
"Yes, I haven't seen you for more than 20 years. My father misses you very much. When he heard that you are back, he was so happy."
“…”
"But he has a lot of things to do, so he can't come with me immediately. He said that when he finishes his work, he will come to Chengdu and get together with you."
“…”
I didn't say anything, but just subconsciously glanced at Qingchen.
He lowered his head to get his wine glass, and his long eyelashes covered his dark eyes, making it difficult to see what was thinking in his heart at this moment.
I smiled and said, "That's great. I haven't seen you for a long time before I asked my uncle. I originally said I was going to pay homage to him, but I didn't expect to let him come here. I wonder when he will arrive?"
"It should be only two days. I want someone to drive the horse. It's because I'm going to come slowly, so he's coming soon."
"That's OK, that's great."
We talked a few more times, and the food was served in a while. Everyone was eating and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. When we were full of wine and food, the sky gradually calmed down, and a servant came forward to serve Silang and Jiangcuo and went back to rest.
Since the toast also wanted to come to Sichuan to see me, of course he would not rush to leave and would stay in Chengdu.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Qingchen and I did not get up and leave the seat immediately, but sat in our seats. After a while, I looked up at him and said, "Qingchen, do you think there is anything wrong with letting the toast come this time?"
He looked up at me: "Why did sister say that?"
"You haven't spoken much since Slang Jiangcuo said that he had asked the toast to come here just now."
“…”
"what's on your mind?"
He looked at me with a smile: "Sister still cares about me very much. If I talk less, my sister will find out."
“…”
My face darkened for a moment, and he immediately said, "It's indeed something wrong. He's here at this time."
I whispered: "You haven't sent anyone to the ward that Xichuan and the court are preparing for peace talks with each other?"
"No, but this matter cannot be covered. He must have known it. Slang Jiangcuo sent these horses over and said that he wanted to see you, it should be just an excuse."
“…”
"They are definitely paying attention to this."
My brows frowned slightly and said softly: "If Nishikawa and the court really complete the peace talks, if it is really-"
"Then Qingchuan will face a great threat."
Qingchen looked up at me and said with a smile: "At the beginning, they took advantage of the opportunity of the court fighting with Xichuan to get rid of control. In those years, they and the Yan family were able to support each other and depend on each other, but later, the relationship gradually faded."
"What do you think he would have to do with this time?"
"It's hard to say," Yan Qingchen gently pinched his eyebrows and said, "If it were someone else, I could see a little sign, but Slang Jiangcuo-" He said, unable to help but sneer: "This fool only knows to play his talented and talented man in front of you. What's more, I don't know anything about it."
I heard him, and I was a little funny and sad, and I whispered: "Don't say that either."
“…”
“He has also changed a lot over the years.”
“…”
"Is it useless to have a new bottle of old wine?"
He nodded with his fingers and said, "If a person doesn't grow up here, no matter how loudly speaking, it is just a high-sounding joke."
His words were too sharp, which made me feel a little uncomfortable when I listened. I was speechless for a moment. Qingchen probably saw it, slowed down and said softly: "Forget it, it's useless to say more of these things. Sister, go back and rest first."
"And you?"
"I, I want to think about it again."
I had some things to ask him, but looking at Qingchen's frown, I knew that he had many things to worry about. After hesitating for a moment, he stopped talking and got up and left.
Early the next morning, I heard that some guests arrived.
Silang Jiangcuo also came to me, but he really couldn't get any more words in his body, and he had to recite poems for me. I couldn't bear to defeat him, and I listened for a whole morning. After finally taking a break at noon for a while, I closed the door and thanked the guests, only instructed Aunt Hong.
She was in charge of outside affairs all day today. After all, so many important guests were coming, and she couldn't get away with them and the servants they brought.
In the afternoon, I took a nap. When people were a little more awake, someone came to report outside, and the head of the Tang family asked for a visit.
When I heard this, I hurriedly got up and sorted it out for a while. I saw Tang Ting slowly walking in with an energetic old man. The old man was very tall and almost the tallest among the people I had ever seen, but he was very thin, like a bit of yellow bamboo. When his clothes were worn on him, they seemed to be placed on bamboo. When the wind blew, the clothes were constantly flying.
He is Tang Ting's grandfather, Tang Yuan, the head of the Tang family.
I hurried forward: "Old man."
The old man looked at me with gray eyes and immediately leaned over and bowed to me: "I've seen the eldest lady."
"You don't have to be too polite, old man."
As I said, I nodded to Tang Ting. She immediately helped her grandfather into the room, accused me of the crime, and then sat down.
