    Chapter 37 Really have nothing to say to the master?

    Two strands of white smoke after the lights were extinguished floated from the candlestick, and the room was darkened, and only the silhouettes of people could be seen.

    Hua Yue stared at the pattern on the top of the tent for a moment, and asked him, "Apart from the third son of the General's House, do you have another identity?"

    Li Jingyun didn't expect that she would suddenly mention this. He was stunned for a moment, then tilted his head and said impatiently: "I told you to talk about yourself, I didn't ask you to ask the Lord in turn."

    Huayue smiled in the dark, and tucked the quilt with her chin, as if sighing and melancholy: "I have nothing to say about my concubine."

    His eyes sank, blending with the night, Li Jingyun wanted to get angry, he wanted to stick Gengtie and Mingpei on her forehead, and ask the person she shared the bed with, why she couldn't tell the truth.

    However, after thinking about her words carefully, he seemed to understand.

    He wouldn't tell her the truth, and she wouldn't trust him completely.

    The person who looks soft and deceiving is not the least bit wary.

    Turning his head to look at the top of the tent with her, Li Jingyun let out a sigh of relief and said slyly, "Then master will leave you alone."

    "Thanks to the gentleman's care, the concubine is already grateful." Her voice came from the side, soft and soft, like a whisper before falling asleep.

    Li Jingyun turned around and turned his back to her, thinking that she would just leave it alone, she didn't worry about herself, why should he worry about her so much.

    No one spoke in the room, only the sound of long, even breathing, from late night to dawn.

    Day two.

    Li Jingyun woke up very early for the first time in the world, Yin Huayue just went out on the front foot, he rolled over and got out of bed on the back foot, changed clothes and washed, and followed her out.

    It's one thing to say he's not worried, but it's another thing to be curious. In the past, he always wanted to get out of the house when he woke up, and he didn't pay attention to what Huayue was doing in the house every day. I'm free today, so I plan to follow along.

    No other meaning, anyway, idle is idle.

    After finding enough reasons for himself, the third master followed quietly.

    It was not yet dawn, and the cyan shadow looked particularly weak in the dim light. She went out from the East Courtyard and walked all the way to the Main Courtyard. Before taking two steps, she met the old butler who gave her the ledger, and she nodded. After answering something, he stepped into the main courtyard while flipping through it.

    The accounting room in the main courtyard is an extremely complicated place. Li Jingyun has been in the General’s Mansion for so long, and he has only entered twice in total. In his impression, there are piles of accounting books and a group of battered accounting rooms. It's like an evil spirit that has climbed up from the underworld.

    He saw Yin Huayue step in as if nothing had happened, and his brows knitted together.

    A girl's house, what's going on in a place like this?

    Touching the backyard window, Li Jingyun turned his head and looked in.

    It's still the group of evil spirits who are black and green at the moment, their clothes are disheveled and their hair is messy, and they are all holding thick booklets in their arms. But now, this group of people are all around a table, waiting respectfully.

    Huayue sat behind the table, holding a cinnabar pen in her hand, and quickly circled something on the booklet. After one book was circled, someone wailed and saluted her gratefully. She picked up the booklet and returned to her own place. position up. The rest of the people gathered around like a tide and handed the booklets to the table one after another.

    Li Jingyun felt suffocated when he saw it, did he modify the accounts? So many books, when will they be changed?

    The man at the table looked very focused, different from the gentle and low-brow in front of him, she had no expression on her face when facing others, her writing was neat and tidy, and her body showed a coldness that refused to let anyone else know, no matter how old she was. The accountant could only respectfully call her "Yin Zhangshi".

    Feeling a little happy for no reason, Li Jingyun folded his arms and continued to watch.

    A few days ago, she went up to the mountain for spring hunting, and she seemed to have accumulated a lot of accounts that were not clear.

    Everyone in the account room breathed a sigh of relief and bowed their hands to her. He thought she would lean back in the chair to rest for a while, but who would have thought that this person just nodded and got up and went out the door.

    Just after the Mao Shi, Hua Yue went to the kitchen, the people in the kitchen saw that she was already very familiar, and they greeted her without waiting for her to speak: "Miss Yin, a batch of fresh fish from the West Lake came to the kitchen today, sir. cute to eat?"

    She stood beside the ingredients shelf, took out a piece of paper and said, "San Gongzi doesn't like fish, so he changed it to steamed pork. He didn't touch the pigeon soup yesterday, so don't put yam in it next time. The porridge is over, and there are two more vegetarian dishes for lunch."

    "Okay." The cook nodded and bowed in response.

    Li Jingyun leaned against the wall and listened, thinking that she really knew him, and it seemed that she spent a lot of thought when he was not paying attention.

    The corners of his lips ticked upwards without a trace, he sniffed, and continued listening pretending not to care.

    After arranging the meal, Huayue wanted to leave, but as soon as she turned around, she saw Xiao Cai.

    As the maid who passed the news, Xiao Cai knew more than Shuang Jiang. When she saw her at this time, her expression was very complicated. She walked up in two or three steps and said in a low voice, "You betrayed Lord Chang?"

    Her voice was very low, and she was pulling someone over the wall, so the busy group of people in the kitchen wouldn't hear it.

    Hua Yue didn't care anymore, leaned against the wall and said funnyly: "I have never worked under Chang Gui, how can I talk about betrayal?"

    "However, you said that when you went to Guanshan, you would help contact Lord Shen, how could you reverse the past and hurt him?" Xiao Cai stomped her feet anxiously, "The eldest prince is gone, Lord Chang is the best choice to take over his old department. It's not good to offend anyone if you offend him."

    "He wanted to kill me first."

    Xiao Cai looked at her suspiciously: "But Lord Chang said, you are a ghost, and you have to save the third son of the general's mansion."

    Her eyelids drooped, and Hua Yue's tone became cold: "You believe him when he says it?"

    "I don't believe it, but... but there is a rumor from the main courtyard that you are the concubine of the third young master." Xiao Cai said angrily, "Why are you doing this? After finally contacting Lord Shen, you are welcome. It's better to go back to him than to look at people's faces in this place."

    "Go to Shen Zhiluo, and then join him as a cow and a horse for Zhou Heshuo?" Hua Yue smiled, she stretched out her hand to straighten the front of her clothes, and gently stroked, "If you want to go, I will take you there. Yes."

    With a pale face, Xiaocai took a half step back and lowered her eyes, "This servant doesn't have such thoughts, but now Lord Chang has already shaken hands with Lord Shen to make peace, and all our people have started to seek refuge there, if you don't make plans earlier. , I want to take revenge in the future, but there are not so many people to help."

    Hua Yue raised her eyes and asked her seriously: "From the beginning to the end, I was just an excuse for you to fight against Liang Fuwei. When did you become willing to avenge me?"

    The person in front of him froze, stood there and didn't move. After a long while, he said, "Don't forget, without us covering up, your identity might not be able to be concealed so well. Yesterday in the yamen, you exposed yourself to others. After knowing our identity, we received the news at Zi Shi. If you feel that you are different from us, then if Zhou Heshuo notices it, we will not lend a helping hand."

    Laughing softly, Hua Yue touched her back: "Last time I was about to die, and you didn't pull me, so why are you threatening me now. I really want the fish to die and the net to break, the big deal is that you sell me, I Shake all of you out, the remnants of our Great Wei should die together."

    Xiao Cai looked at her with a terrified expression on her face. Huayue patted her shoulder kindly, then turned around and walked out with a cold expression.

    As soon as she stepped out of the kitchen, she returned to her usual demeanor, as if nothing had happened just now, taking small steps and smiling, and continued to the next place.

    After reprimanding the unruly servants, and instructing people to repair the old wall that collapsed in the middle of the night, Yin Huayue was busy until Chen Shi, and finally returned to the East Court to wait for the third son to get up.

    I don't know why, today's Li Jingyun didn't get up, she only shouted, and the man opened his eyes.

    The dark eyes were like mysterious beads fished out of a hot spring, with a layer of mist trapped in the morning light, which looked outrageous. He just stared at her like that, motionless.

    Huayue did not start, twisted the handkerchief and handed it over. The man reached out to take it, leaned against the bed and asked her with half-open eyes, "Where did you go?"

    She knelt down with a smile, bowed her head and replied, "Although the concubine is rich now, there is no new leader in the mansion to take over. Many things can't be handed over, so the concubine can only deal with it, so I got up early and walked around."

    Such complicated affairs were just "turning around" in her mouth, Li Jingyun snorted lightly and wiped his face lazily.

    Hua Yue brought a new robe to put on for him, and when she was arranging her shoulders, she heard him muffled: "Is there really nothing to tell you?"

    The corners of her lips drew a kind arc, and she asked him in a kind-hearted manner: "What about you, do you really have nothing to say to your concubine?"

    The person in front of her was annoyed, she waved her hand and buckled the belt herself, her half-closed eyes were filled with blackness: "Forget it, Master doesn't bother to care about you."

    With a smile, Huayue turned around and went out to pour water, but when she came back with the water basin, she saw a pair of very familiar armor in the house.

    The blanket was tucked into the armor, forming a red face, and when two copper hairpins were inserted into the face, it was an extremely angry eyebrow.

    Li Jingyun was out of the house again, and she didn't know where she was going, so she left only this thing, silently accusing his anger.

    If it was before, Hua Yue would definitely be angry. If the general came to summon her, she would not be able to explain it to anyone.

    But don't know why, thinking back to the first time saw this scene, and thinking about it now, she finds it funny.

    The third son is not someone who can be kept by the walls of this courtyard.

    Go with him.

    Shaking her head, Hua Yue put down the water basin and was about to clean up the table, but as soon as she started, she heard someone running towards him outside, hurried and panting.

    "It's not good." Shuang Jiang grabbed the door frame and glanced inside. Seeing that she was the only one there, he hurried in and said, "Let's go, it's too late!"

    Hua Yue was a little confused by her flustered look: "Please clarify first, where am I going?"

    After swallowing, Shuang Jiang said urgently, "The news that just came, the servant who knew your identity was going to be sent to the frontier, but he was suddenly taken away by His Royal Highness the Prince."

    With a sinking heart, Hua Yue lowered her eyes: "Why does the prince take a servant away with ease?"

    "Why else, the former slave." Shuang Jiang pinched her arm, almost pinching her blue, "I don't know if they don't spread the word, how can you reveal your identity to others casually, what do you really think you are? A random fish in the imperial garden, it doesn't matter if it lives or dies?"

    After packing up the tableware and stacking them, Hua Yue said helplessly, "I didn't mean it either. That person was from the West Palace before, and when he saw it suddenly, it's useless for me to hide it."

    Originally, she had heard that she was a leftover slave of the previous dynasty, so she just wanted to meet her, try her luck, and thought that it would be good if she could come up with a cliché. Who knew that Zhuo An would recognize her as soon as they met, and knelt down in front of her with tears streaming down her face.

    "He shouldn't betray me." Hua Yue said, "Don't worry."

    Shuang Jiang poked her finger on her forehead, wishing to poke a hole in her: "Are you dazed by male sex? If that person is really a loyal slave, can he suddenly betray the eldest princess and sue the Xu family? The Lord is still a traitor, what is your old Lord?"

    "..." The eyebrows twitched, Hua Yue sighed, "I see."

    "I've already told my wife that you will go back to your hometown to visit relatives, and go out and hide for a few days. If you are found out, you won't be caught in the general's mansion." Shuang Jiang took her out, " The carriages and horses are all ready, you just follow along."

    She staggered, and Hua Yue subconsciously looked back at the armor sitting at the table. But she only had time to take a look, and she was quickly stuffed into the carriage, carrying a bag of coils that came from nowhere, and swayed on the road.

    Zhou Heshuo was an extremely suspicious person. He once buried the person alive because he suspected that concubine Ji had eavesdropped on his conversation with Shen Zhiluo, and because he heard rumors that his servant was going to betray him, he took someone to raid her home.

    The last time the East Palace was assassinated, if it weren't for the fact that the person involved was Li Jingyun, Zhou Heshuo would not have given up.

    Shen Zhiluo knew this very well, so as soon as he heard the news that Zhuo An had been arrested, he immediately rushed over, wanting to say a few words to help.

    As a result, Zhou and Shuo just asked a few questions and settled down.

    This was not in line with his usual style. Shen Zhiluo glanced up and suddenly realized that he might even be on guard for himself. As long as he was here, Zhou Heshuo would not ask very important questions.

    He said that he had been on leave for two days, but Zhou Heshuo readily agreed and sent someone to escort him out of the palace.

    Shen Zhiluo turned the compass and felt panic for no reason.

    "I knew it was your car."

    Halfway through the carriage, a person suddenly jumped up on the carriage, the driver was so frightened that he stopped his horse, Shen Zhiluo was not prepared, and his body suddenly leaned forward - and then was picked up by Su Miao.

    She was holding a bunch of things in her arms, and in order to pick him up, she fell into the carriage. Su Miao didn't mind, she rubbed his face sideways, pinched his scattered ink hair and chuckled, "Do you miss me so much?"

    Pushing her away slightly annoyed, Shen Zhiluo said, "How can you just get into someone else's car."

    "Are you also someone else?" Reaching out and picking up a few paper bags on the ground, Su Miaoshun opened one, took out a fan and dropped it on his compass, "I just bought something and wanted to give it to you."

    Shen Zhiluo felt extremely absurd: "Miss Su, I am the destiny disk, not someone's son's folding fan, and it is impossible to hang things in the world."

    "Mmmm." Su Miao responded perfunctorily, looked at it and said, "It's quite suitable, come and let me hang it up for you."

    Shen Zhiluo suspected that she could not understand human speech at all.

    When he was in a hurry to find Yin Huayue, Su Miao's sudden appearance made him feel irritable, and even the tone was not very good: "Isn't Miss yesterday with the servant of the Ministry of War? Just send him, and use it to provoke me. what."

    With high eyebrows, Su Miao was overjoyed: "Are you jealous? Dan Li and I just happened to meet each other, and we didn't go there on purpose."

    What about Dan Li, a serious girl who will call someone when she comes up?

    Shen Zhiluo took back the compass to avoid her, and said coldly, "It doesn't matter if it happens or not, I'm busy doing errands, and ask the lady to get off."

    "Whatever you do, take me with you." Su Miao said with squinted eyes, "I promise it won't get in the way, I'll stay outside wherever you go, and when you're done, I'll take you to eat the new restaurant on Luohua Street. tavern appetizers.”

    "Get out of the car." He didn't move.

    Su Miao snorted, put her hands together, and begged, "I haven't seen you for two days, let me indulge me for a while, okay?"

    Rubbing his forehead with a bit of a headache, Shen Zhiluo said in a deep voice, "It's okay if you don't get out of the car, it just so happens that I want to go to the General's Mansion."

    "Go to my cousin?" Su Miao asked with a raised face and a smile.

    Shaking his head, Shen Zhiluo looked at her and said, "Go find Yin Huayue."

    "..."

    Jiaoqiao's face was stunned for a moment, her blushing lips were pursed and quickly released, Su Miao sighed and whispered: "Don't blame me for not persuading you, my cousin has never been interested in anyone for so many years, just This little sister-in-law, he takes it to heart, if you go to the little sister-in-law over and over again, he will get angry and will not allow you to work hard with you."

    With a light snort, Shen Zhiluo turned his head and looked out the window: "Your cousin is a person who does big things, and he looks at love and righteousness, but when it comes time to make a choice, Yin Huayue will only be the one who was abandoned."

    With her mouth bulging, Su Miao was dissatisfied: "He won't."

    "There's no reason for me to take a human life to bet with you whether or not your cousin will." He shook his head disinterestedly. "What I have to do is to save people before he gives up."

    After fiddling with the fan pendant in her hand, Su Miao smiled in a low voice, "Some people always say that you are ruthless and cold-blooded. You should ask them to see. When you want to protect someone, Da Siming is also flesh and blood."

    She seemed to be sad, but there were two dimples on her face, sweet like honey.

    Shen Zhiluo glanced at her.

    Su Miao took the scattered paper bags back into her arms, sized them up tightly, then put the fan pendant on his side, waved her hands and said, "Suddenly I remembered that Dan Li wanted to invite me to lunch, I'd better not do it first. Go back, you see Huayue, say hello for me."

    After he finished speaking, he stood up, and the bright red skirt was raised, and rolled down the carriage like a flower under the scorching sun. Standing beside the car, she smiled and waved at him.

    The driver outside was a little overwhelmed, turned his head to look inside and asked, "Sir Shen?"

    Shen Zhiluo watched with a cold face as the smear of red disappeared into the crowd, then withdrew his gaze and calmly said, "Keep going."

    The wheel rolled forward for a while, then stopped abruptly.

    Shen Zhiluo opened the curtain and came down, her pale purple pupils swept back, full of displeasure.

    "My lord?" The coachman stuck his head out to look at him.

    "That's it." With a light breath, Shen Zhiluo waved his hand, "You go back first, I'll go for a walk."

    "……Yes."

    There was a lot of traffic, and the voices were full of people, which drowned out Zitang-colored back in no time. Mist emerged from the steamer that had just been opened on the street, and wisps of it dissipated into the sky like clouds.

    It was sunny for a while in the morning, but it was a little gloomy by noon. Huayue stood in the courtyard of Bieyuan, listening to the quarrel of the first few people in the room.

    "What can you do if you don't want to? His Majesty's seal is in Shen Zhiluo's hands. Only he can gather the scattered old troops. If you don't connect with him, do we just do it alone?"

    "What's wrong with doing it alone? I haven't come here for so many years."

    "Yeah, I came here, and then I didn't even touch the corners of other people's clothes." The old man's voice was hoarse and angry, "It's better now, the little ancestor can reveal his identity by himself, and Zhou and Shuoshang only heard the wind. , but the guards under his command are thinking of meritorious service. When someone comes to take her life away, what's wrong with you?"

    "You're just a muscle." Another voice was also angry, "Who can find it in this place? Besides, if she's here, we don't need to look for it, Shen Zhiluo will be there sooner or later."

    It was boring to hear, Hua Yue yawned and looked at the dark clouds above her head.

    One of the two people in it was the former general manager of the former palace, and the other was her nurse. Since she left the palace, the two have used her name to spy on the remnants of Wei, thinking of going against Liang Fuwei, Recapture the rivers and mountains.

    However, in their eyes, she may be similar to the seal in Shen Zhiluo's hands. It's okay to have the best, and no one can stop the two from yearning for power.

    They didn't come here to care about her, they just wanted to have a quarrel, and then coaxed and scare her to remind her not to cause trouble anymore, she was already being watched by the guards around the prince, and if there was any more trouble, they would give up directly took her and went to go to Shen Zhiluo.

    Hua Yue looked at them calmly, without any disturbance in her heart.

    It is impossible for the destroyed dynasty to survive again. When her father, the emperor, fell in front of her, he never said that she would take on the heavy responsibility of the Yin family's revival. The reason why Hua Yue never objected to their actions was just because she wanted to kill Zhou and Shuo, and they happened to have this goal.

    But right now, they can't be trusted.

    When Director Sun and Yin Ru finished arguing and looked up, Hua Yue was looking up at the magnolia flowers on the branches, her face was demure and soft, gentle and elegant, as if she was not listening to them at all.

    With a helpless sigh, Yin Ru shook her head: "Don't expect anything from her, pampering the little master who has grown up, and it can't be anything but willful and reckless."

    On this matter, Sun Yaozu and Yin Ru rarely reached an agreement, and they stomped at her with hatred, and the two left together from the Moon Gate.

    The courtyard was quiet, and the magnolias on the branches were somewhat broken, and the soft petals fell, just right in her palm.

    After staring at her, she suddenly thought, if Li Jingyun returned to the mansion and found that she was gone, would he be a little anxious?

    Realizing that she was thinking about something false again, Hua Yue smiled back and gently knocked on her forehead: "It can't be another climate."

    The sky was completely gloomy, and it started raining after a while. The rain cracked on the eaves, covering up her whispers and the sound of small footsteps that suddenly sounded outside the courtyard wall.
