【Chapter 043】Ye Mansion Treasure House
After entering the Ye Mansion, Ye Yixin said something to Nangong Chenyu and quickly slipped back to her own Xinxi Garden. If her elder brother knew that she had gone out, he would definitely catch her and give her a good scolding.
Big brother is not in good health, so she'd better stay away from him to avoid making him angry.
The servant who was entrusted with an important task by Ye Yishen went directly to Xinxi Garden. As a result, Qiuyue told her that Ye Yixin had caught a cold. If you are recovering from illness, you should not go out.
Lobby.
Hearing the report from the servants, Ye Yisheng couldn't help but snort in his heart, and ordered Housekeeper Du: "Since Xiao Xin has caught a cold, from now on, the food in Xinxi Garden will be changed to porridge and side dishes."
Butler Du was stunned for a moment, and asked uncertainly: "Master, are you talking about everyone in Xinxiyuan?"
"They have a deep bond as master and servant, so naturally they will share the joys and sorrows." Ye Yisheng thought there was nothing wrong with that.
Then he asked again: "By the way, have you found out how Xiao Xin got out of the Ye Mansion?"
"I have asked the guards at Xinxi Garden and the gates, but no one saw the young lady go out." Steward Du hesitated for a moment and continued, "I guess the young lady must have gone out of the Ye Mansion through the dog hole."
Ye Yisheng was quite speechless. In order to go out, his younger sister really did everything she could: "Let someone fill up all the dog holes in the Ye Mansion."
"Okay." Butler Du agreed.
As soon as he reached the gate of Yiran Residence, Nangong Chenyu heard someone calling him from behind.
"Uncle, wait a minute."
Turning around, Nangong Chenyu saw Xiaoshun running towards him breathlessly.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
"The eldest master is waiting for you in the dining room."
"Go tell Ye Yisheng that I have already had lunch."
This means not going!
After thinking for a while, Xiao Shun said, "Young Master has been eating very light food these years. Do you know what kind of food Young Master can eat now?"
Nangong Chenyu was about to speak, but Xiaoshun said, "Can you please tell the young master in person? Not only will the young master believe what you say, he will also do it."
Nangong Chenyu didn't think much about it and felt that Ye Yisheng was so willful to him probably because he saved Ye Yisheng.
Not long after, Nangong Chenyu walked into the dining room.
He nodded to Ye Yisheng first, and then said: "I have already had lunch at Chunfeng Tower. You can gradually increase the amount of meat in your diet in the future, but don't eat too much at once. Because you used to eat light food, eating too much meat at once will cause indigestion."
Ye Yisheng: “???”
He just asked Xiaoshun to invite Nangong Chenyu to come for dinner, why would Nangong Chenyu say these to him when he came?
He looked at Xiaoshun with a question mark on his face.
Xiaoshun looked at him encouragingly, “Come on, young master!”
Ye Yisheng: “…”
Seeing the master and servant making faces, Nangong Chenyu thought it would be better for him to leave first, so he said, "If there is nothing else, I will go back to Yiranju first."
"Wait." Ye Yisheng hurriedly called out to Nangong Chenyu: "Do you have any plans for tomorrow?"
Nangong Chenyu: “No.”
"I will take you to a place at dawn tomorrow." Ye Yisheng did not clearly say where he was going to take Nangong Chenyu or what he was going to do.
Nangong Chenyu didn't ask any more questions. He was free anyway, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay."
After Nangong Chenyu left, Ye Yisheng's face immediately turned cold, and his eyes swept sharply towards Xiao Shun who was standing beside him.
"What did you tell Young Master Nangong?"
"I just asked about the young master's future diet." Xiao Shun lowered his eyebrows to hide the guilt in his eyes.
Ye Yisheng was silent for a moment and guessed Xiaoshun's intention. Although he doesn't object, some things are better left to nature.
"This is just the first time, and it won't happen again."
"Yes." Xiao Shun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The eldest young master was so smart that he had guessed his little thoughts.
Ye Yisheng continued, "Deduct one month's salary."
Xiaoshun: “…”
As night falls, the sky is filled with twinkling stars and a crescent moon hangs in the air, covering the earth with a layer of mysterious silver gauze.
Ye Mansion Guest House.
In the silence, the sound of insects suddenly rang out.
“Chirp~”
In one of the rooms, Huo Zichen, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. He sat up suddenly, and the next moment he felt pain in his body, causing him to gasp.
After a long while, he got up from the bed tremblingly. Limping to the window, he reached out and pushed it open.
“Chirp~”
The familiar sound of insects chirped again.
Huo Zichen looked around, put his fingers in his mouth, and made a sound like an insect.
“Chirp~”
Not long after, a dark shadow climbed over the wall of the courtyard where Huo Zichen lived, walked a few steps to the window, and saluted Huo Zichen.
"master."
Huo Zichen asked: "Has anything happened in the past two days?"
"Second Young Master Nangong is not a fool. After he locked you up in the forbidden room of the Ye Mansion, he also gave everyone in the second branch of the Ye Mansion a beating."
"Find out what's going on with Nangong Second Young Master. Be careful not to get discovered by him."
"Yes. There is one more thing. The Imperial Master seems to be injured."
"Let someone confirm the truth of this matter."
"yes."
Only after watching the black shadow leap over the courtyard wall and disappear did Huo Zichen close the window. However, he didn't know that the black shadow was covered by a big net as soon as it jumped over the wall.
Soon after, five or six guards from the Ye residence pointed knives at the man.
Butler Du walked out from the darkness.
"take away."
Two guards immediately took the man away.
The other guards were also hidden in the darkness.
Butler Du glanced at the yard before leaving with his hands behind his back.
The next day.
Before dawn, a carriage drove out of the Ye Mansion. In the wobbly carriage, Ye Yishen and Nangong Chenyu sat opposite each other. Neither of them spoke, both of them closed their eyes and rested. The only sound on the quiet street was the clatter of horse hooves.
Soon, the carriage drove out of Guyuan County and headed west.
The sky gradually brightened, the dawn began to appear, and the faint light of morning light penetrated the clouds, like an ink painting slowly unfolding in the sky. Between the mountains, the morning glow gradually dyed half the sky red.
At this time, the speed of the carriage increased a lot.
It was unknown how long it had been before Zhong Ming, who was driving the carriage, pulled the reins.
“Oh~oh~”
"Hiss~" The horse neighed and the carriage stopped.
"Master, son-in-law, we're here."
Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen got off the carriage one after another.
It seemed that their carriage was the only one on the road, but there were about ten people following in secret. The martial arts of these ten people are one level higher than those of the Ye Mansion guards.
At this moment, the ten people were scattered in the forest. If someone approaches, they will be able to detect it at the first time.
Nangong Chenyu looked around and saw that they were now in a forest and the carriage had no road left after reaching this point.
"Follow me." Ye Yisheng said, and walked in one direction.
Nangong Chenyu hurriedly followed.
Ye Yishen did not walk in a straight line. He went left and then right. Nangong Chenyu followed closely in his steps.
Finally, half an hour later, Ye Yishen stopped in front of a steep cliff. He pressed down on a certain spot on the cliff, and suddenly a passage appeared in the middle of the cliff covered with moss and weeds.
In Nangong Chenyu's eyes, what Ye Yishen opened was not only a passage, but also a layer of barrier.
"Let's go in."
Ye Yishen was the first to enter the cliff, and Nangong Chenyu followed behind him. After walking about five meters forward, the entrance behind them returned to its original state.
In the darkness, the night pearl in Ye Yisheng's hand emitted a faint green light, illuminating the dark passage.
After walking about thirty meters forward, the view in front of them suddenly became clear.
The spiritual energy that came towards him lifted Nangong Chenyu's spirits. Although the spiritual energy is not strong, if one has good talent, it is enough to draw the energy into the body.
Originally, Nangong Chenyu was still depressed, not knowing when he could leave the mortal continent. He didn't expect that he would see the dawn of hope for Lingyuan Continent so soon.
This place is not big, with birds singing and flowers blooming, like a paradise. In fact, it is a space similar to a small secret realm.
There is a bamboo house not far away.
As Ye Yisheng walked towards the bamboo house, he said, "This is where the treasure house of my Ye Mansion is located."
Thinking of the black jade that the protagonist in the storybook obtained from the treasury of the Ye Mansion, Nangong Chenyu had already guessed the purpose of Ye Yishen bringing him here.
However, he still asked, "Why did you bring me here?"
"You'll know soon." Ye Yisheng kept it a secret.
Nangong Chenyu: “…”
Nangong Chenyu: "This place is very hidden, ordinary people can't find it."
Ye Yisheng: "I heard from my father that this was where my mother originally lived. After meeting my father, my mother followed him to Guyuan County. Apart from my father and mother, I am the only one who knows about this place. And now there is you."
Nangong Chenyu understood from these words that he either had to become one of them or be silenced.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll bring other people here?"
"Since I brought you here, I naturally don't care whether you tell others or not." Ye Yisheng continued: "Since my health started to deteriorate, I would come here to stay for three to seven days every six months."
"Even if I don't bring you here, someone else might find this place one day in the future." Ye Yishen picked a bright red peach from a peach tree and handed it to Nangong Chenyu.
“Try it. The fruits here taste better than those outside.”
A unique peach fragrance wafts into the nose.
“Thank you.” Nangong Chenyu took the peach and took a bite without hesitation. It was soft and juicy, leaving a long-lasting aftertaste.
Two people stood under the peach tree, each holding a peach in their hands and eating it.
Inadvertently, Nangong Chenyu caught a glimpse of Ye Yishen's lips that had been moisturized by the peach. They were plump and moist, even more juicy than the peach in his hand, making people want to take a sip.
Nangong Chenyu's Adam's apple moved slightly, a breeze blew past, and he quickly looked away, taking the opportunity to suppress his pounding heart.
How could he come up with such a strange idea?
Ye Yisheng didn't notice Nangong Chenyu's abnormality at all. Seeing that Nangong Chenyu had finished eating a peach, he said, "There are still many on the tree. Pick them if you want."
They set out too early, so they didn't have breakfast.
"good."
Nangong Chenyu responded and looked up at the peaches on the peach tree. He picked two relatively large peaches and handed one to Ye Yisheng: "Eating more fruits here will do you a lot of good."
