Chapter 471: After nightfall, a little addictive
After hearing what Xie Yingmian said, Yu Lingye suddenly understood.
"That's a good idea," he said. "I'll give the order right away."
Xie Yingmian: "People's prejudices are like a mountain. Many concepts are deeply rooted, so it may be difficult at the beginning."
Yu Lingye thought for a moment and said, "I'll let Chi Jing be in charge of recruiting women for the fiefdom."
"Chi Jing is a woman, she understands women better."
There was something Yu Lingye didn't say.
Chi Jing is tougher than any other man.
With her around, we can get twice the result with half the effort.
Xie Yingmian had seen Chi Jing.
Ever since Yu Lingye incorporated the Black Tiger Gang and the Goshawk Gang into Nightingale, Chi Jing has been in charge of some key matters at Nightingale.
Chi Jing is very cold, has a bold personality, is decisive, ruthless and skilled in her methods, and is a typical queen.
She can indeed intimidate some stubborn elements.
"Before Chi Jing leaves for her fiefdom, ask her to come see me." Xie Yingmian said, "I have something to give her."
"good."
After chatting with Yu Lingye, Xie Yingmian felt much more open-minded.
Yu Lingye continued to look at the drawings and review the memorials.
Xie Yingmian began to write the unfinished manuals.
Before I knew it, it was dark.
The two of them were immersed in their own things and sat there for more than an hour.
When they finished, they both stopped writing almost at the same time and let out a breath.
The movements were neat and synchronized, and the two smiled at each other.
"We are becoming more and more in tune with each other," said Xie Yingmian.
Yu Lingye smiled but said nothing.
"I'm hungry." Xie Yingmian asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
Yu Lingye said, "All is fine."
Xie Yingmian: "Then let the kitchen make a dish called 'Du Xing'."
Yu Lingyeyan smiled and said, "I'm not picky about food. I'll eat whatever you eat."
Xie Yingmian stretched lazily.
I didn't notice anything when I was busy, but when I had some free time, I realized that I had been sitting for too long and my clothes on my lower back and buttocks were wet.
There were several basins of ice in the room, but it couldn't reduce the summer heat, and my appetite also decreased a lot.
Xie Yingmian thought of a delicious dish.
"Have you ever had cold noodles?" she asked.
Yu Lingye: “No.”
Xie Yingmian: "It's hot, a bowl of sour and sweet cold noodles is perfect. Would you like to try it?"
Yu Lingye: “Yes.”
The two left the room side by side.
Fu Mo saw them leaving and greeted them from a distance.
"Prince, Princess, there's a letter from the Ling family."
"The letter wasn't delivered via a courier, but rather through the Ling family's special channel. The envelope was sealed with a green seal. As soon as I saw the green seal, I knew it wasn't anything important, so I didn't bother you."
Yu Lingye opened the secret letter from the Ling family.
After reading it, he handed it to Xie Yingmian.
The content of the letter was very simple: the concubine and her sister had arrived at the territory of Donglin Kingdom.
The letter also said that his sister was in weak health and the cities in Donglin Kingdom were generally dry. They were currently staying in a small town at the border of Donglin Kingdom and Dayu Dynasty, guarded by masters of the Ling family, so Yu Lingye did not have to worry about the safety of the concubine and his sister.
Xie Yingmian raised his eyebrows.
After investigating the Dowager Concubine's background, the old lady of the Ling family traveled day and night to Shangjing and confirmed that the Dowager Concubine was the daughter of the Ling family.
The old lady of the Ling family was a person of impetuous temperament. After staying in Beijing for a few days, she ran to the place where the concubine lived in seclusion to see her daughter.
Yu Lingye took advantage of this opportunity and asked the eldest and second masters of the Ling family to find a way to secretly transfer the concubine and his sister to Donglin Kingdom.
The Ling family is worthy of being the Ling family.
The identities of the Concubine Dowager and Yu Lingye's sister were so special that even though they were watched closely by countless spies, they still managed to use their money power to quietly accomplish the task.
Yu Lingye lit the letter.
His mother and sister had been transferred, and he no longer had any worries.
Lanterns have been lit in the yard.
The night wind blows.
The lantern swayed in the wind, reflecting Yu Lingye's perfect profile.
"Thank you." Yu Lingye's voice was faint.
Xie Yingmian was confused: "Thank me for what?"
"You should be grateful to the Ling family for their wealth."
Yu Lingye said nothing, just chuckled softly.
Before meeting Xie Yingmian, he did not believe in supernatural powers or fate.
After meeting Xie Yingmian, he believed it.
The abbot of Huangyun Temple said that he needed a wedding to have a chance of survival.
On the night of his wedding, he was saved by Xie Yingmian.
Xie Yingmian discovered his Du'e Gu and used eighty-one reviving needles to pull him back from the brink of death.
Only with Xie Yingmian around could he gradually recover, could he repeatedly overcome life crises, could his mother escape from the blood-sucking Fang family, and could she learn about her own life experience.
All the changes are because of her.
The lights are dim.
The tenderness in Yu Lingye's eyes was like insoluble colored ink, staining the black and white world into various colors.
He looked at Xie Yingmian with eyes full of affection.
Xie Yingmian shuddered.
Yu Lingye is a very introverted person.
He usually looks like a human being, taciturn and cold.
Only at night, when he can't get what he wants, will he reveal his wet puppy eyes.
Whenever Yu Lingye showed this kind of look, she was in a state of life and death.
Xie Yingmian's heart was filled with alarm.
She moved a little further away from Yu Lingye: "It's not time to go to bed yet."
"It's no use looking at me like that."
"I won't be fooled by you again, so don't try to do anything bad."
Yu Lingye: ...
He didn't mean that.
He just wanted to express his gratitude, that's all.
Xie Yingmian looked at Yu Lingye warily.
Although she also had a taste of it, she was a little addicted to Yu Lingye after nightfall.
But addiction requires the right circumstances.
Rather than eating meat, she now wants to eat sour and sweet cold noodles.
Fu Mo felt that the atmosphere between Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye was a bit strange.
He scratched his head, feeling a little redundant.
It was so unnecessary that he wanted to leave quietly.
But he hadn't finished his words yet and could only stand there awkwardly like a pillar.
Fu Mo hesitated for a moment, then said with a stiff upper lip: "Um... Prince and Princess, there is another letter."
"There's no signature on the letter, and I don't know where it's from."
"This letter was not sent through any other means. The kitchen shopper found it among the vegetables they bought today."
"The kitchen purchasing manager thought this matter was a little suspicious and reported it to me, and that's how the letter came into my hands."
"I checked it. There are no hidden weapons, no poison, and no traps inside. There's nothing on the letter either. It's just a blank piece of paper."
"What do you think? Should we get rid of it or—"
Xie Yingmian: "Let me see."
Fu Mo took out the letter.
The letter was the most common and cheapest envelope in Shangjing. Many people bought this kind of envelope every day, and it was impossible to investigate who the sender was through the envelope.
After opening the letter.
The letter paper is also made of the most common and cheapest paper.
The letter was indeed blank, without any writing on it.
Xie Yingmian held up the letter paper. Under the light, she could faintly see traces of water on it.
Xie Yingmian placed the letter on the candle.
As the candle burned, yellowish-brown writing slowly appeared on the letter.
