Chapter 159
After parting with Ye Changning, Lin Zhiyi and Zhou Mingyan rode their horses at full speed all the way to Yuzhou.
You can also stay in an inn near the capital.
Comfortable and convenient.
Zhou Mingyan recalled Ye Xiuluo's earnest instructions outside the city and couldn't help but laugh and tease, "I didn't expect Brother Ye to have such a long-winded side. It's really strange. Xiuyuan, you're quite charming, you attract both men and women!"
Lin Zhiyi: “…”
She was really speechless about her good friend Zhou Mingyan.
As smart as Xie Junnuo and Ye Changning had guessed that she was a woman, and the sisters had also suspected her female identity through various clues... Only the young master Zhou, a naive, cute and honest person, never thought about it that way at all.
Now people even tease her about being popular with both men and women.
She is so charming that of course she is popular with both men and women!
When she first came here three years ago, she even thought about getting close to the little princess and going the lesbian route.
Fortunately, Jingyue is not a princess, but a prince, which saves her from the lesbian path.
Emmm, of course, being able to have a perfect match of yin and yang with Jingyue is also the ending she likes.
"You only dare to say this in front of me. If A Yue were here, would you still dare to say it?"
Zhou Mingyan felt a chill down his spine and admitted decisively, "I dare not, I dare not..."
Princess Liyang's slight smile was filled with murderous intent, so no one dared to joke in front of the princess.
Lin Zhiyi said, "Brother Ye is mainly experienced in handling cases outside and has excellent wilderness survival skills, so he just gave a few more instructions. Honestly, the instructions from my parents and sisters are even more terrifying... and Ayue's... I'm almost getting calluses on my ears."
That was true, but if she didn't have that overly happy smile on her face, Zhou Mingyan would be more likely to believe her "little complaints".
"My parents and brothers really trusted me and left me alone," Zhou Mingyan said. "Only my eldest brother cared about me the most. He gave me a lot of advice and gave me a lot of banknotes. But I knew it must have been my eldest sister-in-law who asked him to give me advice and money."
"Big sister is really nice~ Of course, big brother-in-law dotes on you too - this is the privilege of being the youngest."
"Yes, in this respect, we are really the same—we are both the eldest in the family."
"But don't let your favor lead to arrogance." Lin Zhiyi said, and then smiled again, "Of course, our Young Master Zhou will not let his favor lead to arrogance."
"How do you say it?"
"You don't have that kind of brain."
“…”
The two of them were joking around and didn't feel tired even though they were on the road.
Zhou Mingyan had been to Yuzhou, and Lin Zhiyi had also been to Qingzhou. Although they took a horse-drawn carriage at that time, they definitely both had experience in traveling.
The difference is that last time there were people around them who they relied on more, but this time it was just the two of them who were just young people.
Oh, if you count Lin Zhiyi’s business trip experience in the present world, then the only ‘newborn calf’ is Zhou Mingyan.
He had never completed any business trips independently.
But it is precisely because of this courage and youthful passion that it is even more valuable.
——The young man is fearless and free as the wind.
After Lin Zhiyi and Zhou Mingyan completely left the capital, they first arrived in Yanzhou.
Next door are Jizhou and Jizhou.
Further southeast is Qingzhou.
"I really want to go out for a walk. It's so boring to stay in the capital all the time." Zhou Mingyan trotted for a while and sighed as he looked at the beautiful scenery around him.
When he went to Yuzhou two years ago, the roads were blocked by heavy snow and everything was desolate and white.
Now the spring scenery is pleasant and the flowers are in full bloom, it is even more comfortable and relaxed than during the spring hunting.
Looking back on the two spring hunts, both were thrilling experiences. One time, the prince consort was injured, another time, the princess was injured, and there was also a surprise attack by the northern barbarians...
Zhou Mingyan shook his head to shake off the past and galloped away on his horse.
——This beautiful spring is even more worth enjoying and remembering!
Lin Zhiyi hasn't been so relaxed for a long time.
Although I was a little tired from the journey, I felt more relaxed than ever before.
"Mingyan! Let's have a horse race!" Lin Zhiyi rode his horse to catch up with Zhou Mingyan and invited him with a smile.
Zhou Mingyan happily accepted: "Okay! Let's compete! Is there a prize?"
Lin Zhiyi glanced at his purse: "One hundred taels!"
Zhou Mingyan: “…” This guy really knows how to choose the money he just got.
"Are you scared?"
"I'm not afraid. One hundred taels is one hundred taels." Young Master Zhou doesn't spend much on a daily basis, and he doesn't indulge in alcohol and sex. Apart from practicing martial arts and archery, he also looks for people to compete in martial arts. Therefore, when he suddenly received a very generous amount of money from his elder brother and sister-in-law, although he was happy, he was still happy to take out a hundred taels and play a horse racing game with his good friends.
Winning or losing isn't that important.
What matters is the process.
The two were very excited, so the guards had to split into teams tacitly. Thirty percent of the guards ran forward first, 40% of the guards lined up along the road, and the remaining 30% followed behind.
Form a protective circle on all four sides.
Lin Zhiyi and Zhou Mingyan found a good starting point and aligned their horses' hooves. Then, at Lin Zhiyi's command, the two horses shot out like arrows!
The galloping horse, the young man with a bright smile, the flying long hair, mixed with the spring breeze and the fragrance of flowers, are unrestrained and frivolous.
Run happily.
In the end, Zhou Mingyan won the race by a narrow margin of one horse head.
Young Master Zhou chuckled, reined in his horse, and raised his chin towards Lin Zhiyi: "I win! Give me the money!"
Lin Zhiyi deliberately sighed, then took out a hundred taels of silver and handed it over.
Fortunately, she also has a small stash of money, and someone will give her more money.
Zhou Mingyan took it, examined it, folded it carefully, and put it in his arms: "I have a taste of the joy of making money. No wonder my sister-in-law likes to open a shop and make money so much. It's really cool, hahahaha!"
Lin Zhiyi rolled his eyes at him, squeezed his horse's belly, and urged it forward.
Zhou Mingyan followed her and looked at her sideways: "Hey, a dignified prince consort can't be so stingy, right? Would you rather gamble than admit defeat?"
"I've already given you the banknotes. Who wouldn't admit defeat?" Lin Zhiyi said with a smile, "I just can't stand your silly look."
"Whatever you say, I'm happy anyway." Zhou Mingyan shook his head on horseback. He was indeed the spoiled youngest, innocent and pure.
Even after experiencing Cheng Lunian's death, he still retained his purity.
Lin Zhiyi actually admires him quite a bit.
This purity is precious. Priceless.
After they turned from the official road into the small road, about an incense stick of time passed, which was about thirty minutes later, three people on horseback appeared on the official road.
"Brother, when are we going to take action?" the person running on the far right asked the person in the middle.
The person in the middle is taller and stronger, while the person on the far right is thin and nimble.
The person on the far left is of average proportion, with an ordinary face, the kind you would never find in a crowd of people - the kind you would forget as soon as you see it.
But no one dared to underestimate him.
The person who looked familiar to Qin Hongjie but made him suspect that he was being overly sensitive was this ordinary person.
He is known as the 'King of a Thousand Faces' in the martial arts world.
He is very good at disguise and often takes on assassination jobs.
This time, the three brothers took on a big deal.
The person their employer asked them to assassinate was the current son-in-law - Lin Zhiyi!
This time they came to Beijing, disguised as candidates for the military selection, first secretly observing Lin Zhiyi, and then looking for the right opportunity to take action.
Beijing is Lin Zhiyi's territory, so they certainly won't act rashly.
After lying dormant for almost two months, the opportunity finally came.
"No rush, listen to your second brother." The eldest brother turned to the second brother on the left.
The second child: "The timing is not right yet, wait a little longer."
