Official residence, Wen Yu's home.

Although the sky was dim, the room was completely dark. If the fire was not lit, it would be pitch black.

The simple home-cooked dishes are placed on the table, and the aroma slowly wafts into the nose. The delicious food can really heal the tired soul, and Wen Yu can't wait to taste it.

Perhaps it was a sudden wind, the candle suddenly went out, and then lit up again by itself.

Lin Xiangzhao sat at the dining table, her hands holding the chopsticks just stopped there, her cheeks were puffed up, she didn't know what she was thinking.

Wen Yu put down the bowl and chopsticks, raised her eyebrows, tapped the table lightly, and joked: "If you want to know something, just ask directly. I see that your hand is always hanging in the air, and it's really tiring."

Lin Xiangzhao hurriedly put down his chopsticks, but he didn't blow his hair as usual, "Going to Dali Temple today, is it going well?"

"Everything went well, and I also met Yuan—" Wen Yu's eyelids trembled.

After Lin Xiangzhao came to Capital City, she seldom went out.Maybe she didn't want to meet people she knew, or she didn't want to meet people from Yuan Zhan or Yuan's mansion.Is she homesick? Maybe I should ask her if she wants to go back to Lingchang.Lin Xiangzhao was originally the daughter of the county magistrate, but now she committed herself to be a cook, she would inevitably feel a little embarrassed.

Seeing cousin Yuan Zhan, Lin Xiangzhao clasped his hands together, feeling as if lost in a lifetime.

But a year later, she came to Capital City again, and it was already like this.Although the affection from the past had dissipated, she felt a little embarrassed when she thought of how she is today.

"You don't have to worry about anything." Wen Yu said reassuringly, "From Yi Xin to Capital City, you have taken care of me so much all the way, and this kindness has been repaid long ago. Back in Yi Xin, I once said that you were my sister-in-law,It's not a lie. If you want, you can call me brother."

How could this favor be repaid, and I don't want to be your sister, Lin Xiangzhao muttered vaguely.Why is Mr. Wen not clear-headed? Whenever she showed a little bit of meaning to herself, she would have been so reserved a long time ago, but why this person's eyes are so clear, without any distracting thoughts at all.

"Xiao Lin, you don't have to stay in my small yard. I've wronged you here. If you want to go home, I'll send someone to take you off."

"I don't want to go back." Lin Xiangzhao said firmly, ignoring the struggling emotions just now, how could she want to go back.

Wen Yu was taken aback for a moment when she heard the words, did this girl not even hesitate?

"Mr. Wen, are you planning to drive me away?" Lin Xiangzhao asked cautiously, full of anxiety.

"You're thinking about something messy. If you don't want to leave, just stay here. Although I don't have any skills, I can still support myself." Wen Yu flicked her head, a little funny.

Lin Xiangzhao knew that his father and mother were very kind to him, but these would never delay them from finding a "good husband" for him, but once they knew that they were divorced, they would never let themselves go as before.

What's more, Lin Xiangzhao took a look at Wen Zhen, and the ideal man in her heart was by her side. Even though this man is "blind" and "fool" now, she still likes him very much.

But, when will Mr. Wen be enlightened?Lin Xiangzhao picked up the food depressedly and swept them away.

Imperial City, Royal Study Room.

There are ancient books and volumes on the mahogany bookshelves, and the painting jars are full of authentic works by famous masters.A diamond-encrusted clock ticked aside, like something from the West.

Jun kiln flower pouches are full of fresh flowers, so tender that they are about to drip water.

It's a pity that the owner here has no time to appreciate it.

The painted paintings on the glazed tiles became more and more brilliant under the light. Zhao Xi had already retreated outside the door. Xie Yu suddenly raised his head and said, "By the way, big companion, call Yuan Zhan too. I also have something to look for him."

"Cha." Zhao Xi paused for a moment, bowed his head respectfully to Xie Yu, and closed the door very gently.

Outside the imperial study room.

A little eunuch stood there, not daring to attack or retreat, with a bitter look on his face, he was about to cry: "Imperial Concubine, it's not a slave who won't let you in, it's the emperor's order. The slave dare not be the master!"

Concubine Xiao Gui is the niece of Empress Dowager Xiao, and naturally also the niece of Xie Yu's biological mother.At the beginning, Empress Dowager Xiao picked and picked among the many juniors of the Xiao family, and finally chose Xiao Peiwan from her concubine's family, because this girl not only matched her temperament, but even had some similarities in appearance.

Concubine Xiao's appearance is extremely bright and beautiful, with bushy eyebrows, big deep eyes, thick lips, charming and charming, every frown and smile are full of charm.

At this moment, the beauty's face was full of anger, "Since your majesty is inside, I want to go in anyway, why should you block it, you dog slave."

Xiao Peiwan was about to break in forcefully, but she saw Zhao Xi coming out from inside, "Eunuch Zhao, I want to see His Majesty, may I trouble you to say something."

Zhao Xi waved the whisk in his hand to his left, and bent his knees, "Your imperial concubine, this is really embarrassing for the miscellaneous family. The emperor is really not in a good mood at this time, and I hope that the empress will forgive me. The emperor ordered the slave to do something, Your Majesty, take care."

Xiao Peiwan made a look, and the maid next to him stopped Zhao Xi, and gave him a silver coin.

"Father-in-law, this palace has brought excellent news, His Majesty knows it, and I guarantee Longyan Joy."

It was too noisy, Xie Yu's eyes were stingy, the noise in his ears made his head ache, Xiao Peiwan's sharp voice pierced through the window and pierced into his ears.

Xie Yu kicked the door open and scolded coldly: "Stop making noise! Zhao Xi, what I asked you to do, why are you still dawdling here!"

"I'll do it now, slave." After Zhao Xi finished speaking, he ran out of the distance in a swift motion, before Xiao Peiwan even had time to speak.

"Your Majesty, I brought you some pastries, which I made myself."

Xiao Peiwan raised the food box in her hand, she was charming and charming, as long as she had eyes, she could see her deep affection, and the joy and admiration in those eyes made her face more dazzling.

Xie Yu stood there and glanced at her lightly, "Stop standing there, come in."

Xiao Peiwan signaled the maid to close the door, and she put the food box on the table and opened it. Inside was a plate of delicate pastries.

Xiao Peiwan walked to Xie Yu's side, picked up a piece of pastry with her slender hands, and brought it to Xie Yu's lips, her eyes full of anticipation: "Your Majesty, it's delicious, try it."

Xie Yu frowned, and turned his face away, "I don't like it."

Xiao Peiwan's expression didn't change, and she immediately acted coquettishly: "Your Majesty, I liked you very much when I saw you last time, so I made it with my own hands. Look, my hands are red."

Xie Yu pushed away Xiao Peiwan who was about to stick to his body, looked down at her with a cold expression, and did not hide his displeasure: "The imperial concubine is yelling outside the door just to give me this thing."

"Why is Your Majesty so fierce? This concubine knows that His Majesty is in a bad mood today, so I come to tell you good news."

Xie Yu didn't say a word, his face sank like water, and he looked at her quietly with calm eyes.

Xiao Peiwan lowered her eyes, Xie Yu didn't like herself, but so what, if His Majesty didn't like any of them, then she didn't lose.She is not a fool like Yuan Ruoyue, she is quite beautiful, but she always puts on the airs of a queen, and she will not show weakness or act like a spoiled child to His Majesty, no man would like her like this.

So what if he's an emperor, he's still a man, he doesn't like women who are all charming and dependent.

It's a pity that your majesty doesn't want to be serious. She resorted to tricks to get pregnant last time, but as long as she can give birth to this child, she will be the eldest son. My aunt told me that she would make her child the crown prince.

The pastry Xiao Peiwan was holding seemed to fall to the ground inadvertently, she let out a small exclamation in surprise, raised her eyes and blinked, and looked at Xie Yu cautiously, her face seemed to turn red a little.

"Your Majesty, forgive me, my concubine accidentally dropped something on the ground."

Xiao Peiwan twitched, her complexion became more and more tender, and she was faintly shy, "Your Majesty, I came today to tell you that my concubine is happy."

Yeah?There was a hint of playfulness in Xie Yu's eyes.Then his face was stained with joy, "You are pregnant, Pei Wan, you didn't lie to me."

Xiao Peiwan squeezed into Xie Yu's arms and leaned against his chest, her tone was cheerful, "Your Majesty, how dare my concubine lie to you, it's true."

The two are in love with each other, and the house is full of sweetness.

However, her mood took a turn for the worse, and she was tearful when she spoke again, "But Your Majesty, this concubine has been having nightmares every night, and I always feel that someone is secretly watching this concubine. Is there someone who can't see that this concubine is pregnant with you?"My child, my concubine is really scared."

Xie Yu's tone was full of distress, "Who would dare to harm my child, Pei Wan, don't be afraid, I will protect you."

Xiao Peiwan closed her eyes in satisfaction, put her hands on Xie Yu's waist quietly, and murmured coquettishly: "With His Majesty's words, the concubine suddenly feels at ease."

The two people hugging are handsome and beautiful, and they are in love with each other.

Xiao Peiwan got a satisfactory answer and left immediately.After she left, Xie Yu's expression also sank, his eyes were as cold as a pool of coldness, I thought how long she would be able to hide this kind of thing.

If it is really my child, it would be a miracle in the world.

The next day, morning.In the Jinluan Hall, ministers of civil and military affairs lined up to play, Wendongwuxi.

The sunlight scatters onto the golden chair back, emitting a dazzling light.Xie Yu sat on the dragon chair, his whole body became more majestic and imposing, and could not be violated.

The Xiongnu were aggressive. In the past, they usually invaded the border in the first half of the year, but this year they invaded in autumn, and they were caught off guard.

It was the autumn harvest season at this time, and many fields in the suburbs of Beijing had not yet finished harvesting, and there were even many waiting to be harvested.A farmer was driving an ox cart out of his yard, ready to go to a nearby village to collect grain, and handed over the remaining buckets of rice at home to the government for disposal.

At this time, there was a rush of horseshoes in the distance.I saw a few cavalrymen in armor running fast to the north, and the road was full of dust.

In just a few days, the news that the Xiongnu attacked the northern part of Daqi spread throughout Capital City.

No one can predict the outcome of this war.Gairen was in the midst of a scuffle at this time, and the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain gave the officers and soldiers in Gairen some respite. This battle seemed vigorous, but it was actually full of dangers.

The elite army has set off to Qingchi.The grain in Tuntian has already been transported to Jiren.But war is war and life is life.Even though the entire Qingchi region has entered a state of war, the people of Capital City thousands of miles away are still busy as usual, living a peaceful life.The battle in Saibei was too distant a topic for them.

Wen Yu handed the letter to the courier at the post station, a maple leaf fluttered in the air, gently brushed Wen Yu's shoulder, and then slid to the ground.

She stopped, staring at the red maple leaves, her thoughts drifted to the distance, Saibei was at war, and Yin Junfu was in Jiren.The two armies are at war, and the outcome is unpredictable.Yin Junfu will be safe, she prayed silently.Wen Yu looked at the red maple trees, with a heavy heart.

At the beginning of October, Wen Yu had already worked in Dali Temple for two ten days, and she was already familiar with the content of the work. She would take a rest tomorrow, and she planned to go fishing. Thinking of this, Wen Yu couldn't help getting excited.

Dali Temple has not had a lot of work recently, and there are basically no mistakes in the cases assigned to Wen Yu. The criminal department's work is complete enough, and there is no need to dismiss and retrial.

As for the torture interrogation in Dali Temple Prison, after Wen Yu saw it once, she never wanted to step into that place again, just thinking about it made her hair stand on end.

The official who led Wen Yu that time was Dali Sicheng, whose surname was Fang. He had nothing to do that day, and just happened to meet Wen Yu who didn't know the way, so he led her the way.However, this person is very easy-going, and it didn't take long for him to get acquainted with Wen Yu.Moreover, this person is extremely fond of gossip and gossip, from Yan Duan, the head of Dali Temple, down to the guards at the gate of Dali Temple.

For example, Yan Duan only married Yuan Jingping, a strict wife.Another example is that although Yan Duan is a money fan, he is not greedy for money and is a rare and honest official.

However, it was Wen Zhen's immediate boss, Yuan Zhan and Yuan Shaoqing who complained the most about Fang Sicheng.

At this time, it was lunch break, Fang Sicheng had nothing to do after eating, so he took Wen Yu for a stroll around Dali Temple.Hidden figure.

Wen Yu was pulled by his sleeve by him, and as soon as he uttered the words of refusal, he was pushed against the corner of the wall, and then Fang Sicheng also squatted down, with a look of great interest, and began to complain vigorously.

Wen Yu smiled at him with her mouth open, she really didn't want to hear it.

The leaves rustled, as if responding to Wen Zhen.

Although Fang Sicheng had long reminded not to anger Yuan Zhan, saying that Mr. Yuan was uncertain and had a bad temper.But in the past half a month of getting along, she really didn't find that Yuan Zhan had the above shortcomings.

Fang Sicheng seemed to have a deep grudge against Yuan Zhan, and the more he said it, the more outrageous it became.Wen Yu was forced to listen to a bunch of Fang Sicheng's evaluations of Yuan Zhan, such as that this person is a pervert, whenever he gets angry, his subordinates will cramp and skin, drink blood and eat human flesh.

Wen Yu listened to his embellished words, but didn't hear anything else, only that Fang Siwu should have a good relationship with Yuan Zhan.

Fang Sicheng curled his lips and sighed helplessly at Wen Yu, and then said with nostalgia that he really missed the gentle and gentle Mr. Zheng, but it is a pity that he has now been promoted to the Ministry of Punishment.Then he asked Wen Yu expectantly if he wanted to abandon Yuan Zhan and work with him. He was definitely gentler than Yuan Zhan.

Wen Zhen twitched her mouth, not knowing what was going on, why did she feel that Master Fang was not going anywhere normal.

Fang Chunming talked with all his heart, but Wen Yu winked, but didn't notice that there was someone behind him at all.

About two breaths ago, Yuan Zhan passed by here.His eyes locked on to the two people who were whispering and sneaking there, and he patted his sleeves slowly. He walked behind them and said, "Fang Chunming, what are you talking to my subordinates while squatting there?"Woolen cloth?"

"Wen Pingshi, did you hear someone calling my name?" Fang Chunming patted his head with a silly look on his face.

Wen Yu nodded heavily.

Fang Chunming turned around mechanically, his pupils shrank suddenly, he let out a haha, and immediately jumped three feet away, "It's Lao Yuan, what a coincidence, but I suddenly realized that I haven't done what Lord Yan ordered me to do,Let's go first."

Yuan Zhan gave him a sideways glance, this big mouth was probably speaking ill of himself again.

"Heng Qi, I didn't expect you to be here." Yuan Zhan came closer and looked down at her.

Yuan Zhan's clothes were only an inch away from Wen Yu, almost completely surrounding Wen Yu who was huddled in the corner.

Fang Chunming thought of Wen Yu who was left behind by him to face his immediate boss alone, and felt conscience-stricken when he looked back, but only saw Yuan Zhan's back.

Hey, as expected of Wen Juan, he slipped faster than himself.Fang Chunming couldn't help but gasped in admiration, his steps became faster and he walked away in a hurry.

Wen Yu was a little embarrassed, and wanted to use her strength to stand up, but before her legs straightened, she fell to the ground again.She squatted for too long just now, and her legs went numb.It was so embarrassing, Wen Yu felt that her face was absolutely red and hot right now.

"My lord Yuan, I'm being rude, please stand a little farther away."

Wen Yu felt a little embarrassed, pursed her lips and suppressed the numbness in her legs, but she still couldn't use her strength to stand up.

Yuan Zhan felt a strange joy in his heart.

He squatted down slowly, pursed his thin lips, "Heng Qi, don't move."

The sound was unusually soft.

"Master Yuan?"

Wen Yu's pupils constrict suddenly, what is he doing.

Wen Yu spat out these words vaguely, "Master Yuan! Please let go."

Yuan Zhan's hand pinched her cheek, forcing her to look up.

Wen Yu couldn't feel any warmth from his gaze, as if she was being looked at casually like an object.

Why can't use legs, this is the boss, this is the boss, fuck, fuck the boss.

She punched Yuan Zhan violently, but he dodged it easily and held her hostage instead.

Yuan Zhan's body was covered with cold sandalwood, "Heng Qi, don't move."

Wen Yu couldn't help trembling, and suddenly recalled Fang Sicheng's words just now, but in broad daylight, it shouldn't be—

When the time came, Wen Yu didn't want to stay in Dali Temple for a moment, so she rushed home immediately.

Lin Xiangzhao heard the knock on the door, yawned and walked to the door.

"Mr. Wen, Mr. Lu asked you to go to him immediately after you come back."

Wen Yu didn't even have time to drink her saliva, and hurried to Lu's residence again.

"Teacher, what are you looking for from the students?"

Lu Youzhi was sitting on the reclining chair, and he immediately regained his energy. Baby had to take out a small bottle of wine from behind him.

"Then what else is there, of course it's drinking. This is the good wine I got after I came to Capital City. I didn't even give it to the old man Wu Ju if he wanted it. Don't give me face."

Wen Yu took the wine and smiled brightly, "Teacher, is there any more?"

This kid has changed his temper, he stroked his beard, and looked at Wen Yu suspiciously, "This old man only has this bottle."

Wen Yu snatched it up with a smile, "Then thank you teacher."

After finishing speaking, Wen Yu took the wine bottle and gulped it like drinking water, and drank the "precious nectar" in one gulp.

She wiped the corner of her mouth, "Thank you teacher for your hospitality."

Lu Youzhi was so angry that he pointed at him and couldn't speak, "You you you bastard, why did you drink it up for me?"

Wen Yu smiled without saying a word.

Lu Youzhi clicked his tongue, "Okay, okay, don't groan, just sit there."

"The Xu family has a banquet tomorrow, you can go with the old man."

Wen Yu's face was completely frozen, and she didn't move.

"Heng Qi, brat, what's the matter. You're drunk, this wine has a strong aftertaste, who told you to drink it all by yourself."

"Teacher, I'm not drunk."

Wen Yu covered her face, "I'm not going."

Lu Youzhi patted his thigh angrily, "You boy, what's going on today, no matter what, I have to go tomorrow. You must know that there will be a good show tomorrow, and the old man thought that you are my only disciple, so I took you thereSee the world."

It's a pity that Wen Yu refused to change his words even after death.

A few hours ago, Dali Temple.

The two are in a stalemate.

Suddenly, Yuan Zhan let go of the restraint on Wen Yu, helped her up from the ground, and said to her apologetically, "Heng Qi, I offended you just now, don't take it for granted."

Wen Yu gave a dry laugh and didn't speak, there were still red marks on her cheeks, as if she had just been raped.

Yuan Zhan's Adam's apple twitched, and his voice became hoarse, "I have a task tomorrow, and I need to take a female family member to Xu's house."

Wen Yu's heart trembled, panicked for a moment, and then he was relieved, Yuan Zhan didn't know that he was a woman, so this matter had nothing to do with her.

Before he felt relieved for a moment, Yuan Zhan said again: "You follow me tomorrow."

Wen Yu pointed to herself, "But, Mr. Yuan, don't you want to bring a female family member with you?"

Yuan Zhan took a deep look at her: "It is indeed necessary to bring a 'female family member'."

"This matter should not be known to too many people. You are the only one who can be trusted at present, and you are also the best choice. This is not what I mean, but also what His Majesty means."

Yuan Zhan stroked the Buddhist bead in his hand, and after a while, brought it to Wen Yu's hand.

"I will pick you up at your house tomorrow. Heng Qi, don't forget."

Even the emperor has come out to suppress her, whether it is or not, she can't refuse at all.

"Teacher, you don't need someone to send it off. The students can go back by themselves."

Wen Yu's complexion was still fair, much paler than before, and it was not at all obvious that she drank a whole bottle of wine by herself.

It was dark and there were not many people on the street.

Wen Yu kicked the stones by the side of the road, she really saw the devil, her mind was confused, women disguised themselves as men, men dressed as women, tsk, what a mess.

"Little brother?"

Wen Yu turned around after hearing the words, and saw Song Duan standing at the corner of the street.
