Censor
Guiyao folded the invitation and the two letters together.
It seems that there will be much more to do outside the palace tomorrow than originally expected.
Ren Beixi stretched out his arm to stop her.
"Tomorrow at 3 p.m., I will go to the Imperial Master's Mansion with you." The man took out the invitation with his backhand, his fingertips slightly hot as they brushed across Guiyao's fair hand.
He was about to give more instructions when he saw Guiyao nod thoughtfully and walk around him to go inside. He had no choice but to give Ren Hui a few more instructions before extinguishing the lights in the courtyard and leaving one on in the house.
Guiyao had already washed up and was sitting by the window combing her hair.
It was inconvenient for her to stay with Li Jiao all the time, so she asked Shen Xiaoyuan to fly over and act as a bird camera.
It was not until midnight that a pigeon flew into the yard. After taking the note, Ren Beixi returned to the bed and stroked Guiyao, who was half asleep and half awake, in his arms.
He whispered that the queen was fine.
In the second half of the night, it started to drizzle, and there seemed to be some mist in Guiyao's eyes.
Somehow, tonight I dreamed of all the past events from my childhood in Xiaohe Village, from my uncle accidentally getting little Guiyao hiding in the flowers wet while watering them, to a little girl from a certain family being bitten by a big dog and rushing back to the village to find Doctor Gui overnight.
At that time, little Guiyao didn't cry even when she was woken up. She sat obediently beside him and ate scallion pancakes.
I'm hungry.
I was woken up by the little bluebird in the morning.
Gui Yao pinched her waist, looked up and saw Ren Beixi writing something in the yard from afar.
She tied the silk ribbon in her dress and then leaned over to look curiously.
Shen Yuan chattered about when Li Jiao woke up last night, and whispered that Li Jiao drove the emperor back to the palace, but the emperor still sat in front of the Pepper Room and stayed there all night. Fang said, "Qingqing and I will wait for you over there!"
It's all a worry.
After Gui Yao saw clearly what Ren Beixi had written, she sat on the stool he had pulled out, picked up the date paste cake from the plate and started eating.
Ren Beixi put pen to paper.
He handed Guiyao the letter he wrote to his uncle Li Yushi in the capital.
"Your Majesty forbids the Queen from contacting anyone outside the palace, so just say that I wrote these three letters."
The man said in a deep voice, then lowered his eyes to look at the cinnamon-colored package placed beside him. He said, "The palace was in chaos on the day of the banquet. I put your dagger away before I left. Be careful when leaving the palace. The old faction in the capital dare not act rashly, but that day in Wuhua City, you and I both saw the northern barbarians."
Gui Yao took the dagger and pulled it out with one hand.
The cold light was still the same one that he had found from Ren Beixi's cabinet in the bamboo courtyard.
Her moist almond-shaped eyes trembled, and when she looked at him, she always felt that he was expecting her to say something.
"I will protect myself."
Gui Yao put the dagger back into her sleeve, turned around and trotted away, smiling and waving to her aunt. The little green bird that had been standing on her aunt's body fluttered back to her head.
Shen Xiaoyuan laughed: "Yaoyao, I just saw that guard brought a black coat for your husband, guess..."
all in all.
Now they are standing on South Street in Beijing.
Gui Yao didn't even need to guess who the masked man in black with a sword on his back was.
Shen Yuan laughed so loudly that Gui Yao wanted to pinch the bird's mouth.
Now that things have come to this, the first stop for the two people and the bird is to visit the Gui family's property.
The Gui family now runs a medical clinic and pharmacy in Beijing, which is equivalent to the scale of a modern hospital. The family is wealthy and has monopolized the entire medical industry in Beijing.
The director of the hospital where the shopkeeper works is Guiyao's mother's junior sister.
This was the first time Gui Yao came to the capital after waking up from her dream. To be honest, she felt a little stressed about meeting the original owner's relatives.
But when a beautiful sister pinched my face and touched my head, and praised me for being so cute.
Guiyao's fair little face turned completely red.
The little bird on her head was jumping around, and she saw the same thing as her junior female fellow student!
"In my previous life, Yaoyao was a top student with such a strong aura. In fact, there are so many people who like Yaoyao, including the girl in the next dormitory and the girl who always wants to sit behind you. Ah, I almost forgot their names."
"Yaoyao is so cute now..."
Gui Yao toured the Gui family's property in a daze.
Her aunt held her hand, and they went to the Xu residence for lunch. She said seriously, "My father cooks delicious food, but I don't like to cook, so your uncle cooks at home."
So when they arrived at Xu's house, everyone in the family praised Guiyao again.
"I've always known that Gui girl is pretty."
"Intelligent and sharp, that's great."
"She's still a girl. Guiyao is now the general's wife. It's a pity that she didn't go to Aunt Cheng's wedding."
"Mother! What's wrong with being the General's wife? If I weren't a girl, I would also want to marry Sister Guiyao!"
Gui Yao laughed so hard that her feet were shaking under the table.
The friends and family at the table shifted their focus back to the Third Young Miss of the Xu Mansion, who hadn't returned home for a long time. The lady over there took her own small notebook and moved to Xu Qing's side, saying seriously, "My husband knew that my sister was coming home, so he asked me to prepare these questions in advance."
"Sister, did you hear that more than ten bodies were dug out from a ruin in Wuhua City?"
The bodies were piled together, leaving only bones.
The cause of death is unknown.
My aunt was not comfortable speaking with the child at the table, so she took the sleeping bird with her and went to the side to work on her writing.
There were several dishes of stir-fried dishes and three or four baskets of stewed meat. Even before the main meal arrived, the aroma filled the table.
Guiyao looked from afar.
This man in black was waiting outside with a sword in his hand.
It is cold and calm, and strangers are kept away.
She used the lame excuse of going to find the bird that had flown away as an excuse and jumped in front of the man in two or three steps.
The man in black reached out to touch her.
Guiyao shook her head.
Just as he was about to say something, the burly head of the Xu family happened to come back from outside with a basin of beautiful frog and fish heads, and he saw his daughter in front of the yard with a shy smile in her eyes.
"This..." The head of the Xu family was puzzled.
Gui Yao said seriously: "Grandpa, this is my guard, his name is Xiao Hei."
Ren Beixi said seriously, "Hello, Grandpa."
Grandpa was confused, but he still said generously: "Xiao Hei, do you want to come and have dinner with us?"
Gui Yao glanced at the tightly fitting mask that Ren Beixi had found from somewhere, and sighed. Wearing this mask really affected her eating.
So after leaving Xu's house, Gui Yao made an excuse to sneak away to buy steamed buns for Ren Beixi, and then she carried the silent man behind her with one hand and turned into the alley of the neighborhood.
Wei time.
The young lady removed the mask of the tall man with one hand, and stared at him with her watery almond eyes.
The man laughed.
"As a punishment, you will be punished tonight... and you are not allowed to appear as General Xiao Ren."
Guiyao shook the black mask.
Suddenly there was a scream!
Anyone passing by was so frightened by the sound of the fire-breathing performer that they couldn't open their eyes.
He even flashed in front of the two of them.
Guiyao blinked.
What caught her eye was Ren Beixi's thin lips, then his high nose bridge. His dark eyes seemed to drown all her emotions, and she even forgot to stop standing on tiptoe.
The palm holding the mask was grasped by a pair of big hands.
The scattered sparks from the alley blocked the two people's faces half an inch away.
There seemed to be ignorant stars in her eyes.
Gui Yao was like this, she just turned her head slightly and saw the person fleeing in panic through the gap in the mask.
Suddenly, a smile like a handful of water poured into Ren Beixi's eyes.
The man said nothing, but gradually pressed Guiyao's originally passive body into his arms. Guiyao's back leaned lightly against the wall, and her slender waist was held by his other hand.
Guiyao narrowed her eyes.
The voices outside were noisy and chaotic, and she slowly got used to it, but the man who looked up had only one heavy word in his heart.
"Want a kiss?" Gui Yao bit her lower lip.
Ren Beixi didn't move, his eyes still dark under his long eyelashes.
"Obviously I just want to kiss you."
Guiyao blinked innocently.
The tips of their noses were almost touching. She could hear Ren Beixi's inner voice, and Ren Beixi could hear her heartbeat. Gui Yao squinted her eyes and thought that it was so cute that the other person suddenly stopped breathing when he tilted his head.
Want to tease him.
This was almost Gui Yao's first thought when she noticed Ren Beixi's Adam's apple rolling.
Without the identity of General Ren, Ren Beixi was too obedient, and Gui Yao just looked at him with crooked eyes.
Then I found that... he was blushing.
Or was it because he knew that Gui Yao could hear all the feelings he wanted to express.
My chest was pounding.
Ren Beixi's tall figure suddenly stopped suppressing the attack.
For a long while, he buried his face in Guiyao's neck.
"It's so hot..." Gui Yao touched the man's head in a daze. The man let go of his hand, and she obediently held up the mask to cover her face.
"General Xiao Ren is also shy?"
She could hear his inner voice and of course knew what he was thinking, but she insisted that he speak it out himself.
"Do you like me?"
like.
"Why are you shy?"
…
Gui Yao obediently opened her arms and hugged the man back into her arms. The mask was covered on the back of Ren Beixi's neck. She curled her eyes cunningly and leaned over to whisper something in his ear.
A drop of water fell on her forehead.
It's raining?
Ren Beixi suddenly opened his eyes, and his warm breath fell on Gui Yao's face. He was stunned for a moment, and after a moment he wiped the corners of her eyes with his fingertips.
Guiyao shook her head.
"I didn't cry."
She stuffed the mask back into the man's face, put her nose close to him, and took advantage of the chaos to bite his lower lip.
The steamed buns are used to keep out the rain.
When they arrived at the gate of the Li Mansion, their aunt was standing there, wearing a small blue bird, and beside her was a maid she had never seen before. Gui Yao waved her hand, turned around and said to Ren Beixi, "Do you want to go back to the palace again at the hour of You?"
Seeing him shake his head, he continued, "Thank you, Guard Xiao Hei, for accompanying me today."
"Use the umbrella first. Come pick me up at the door in half an hour. Let's go to the East Market and buy some delicious food. You might not be able to eat at Jiuchong's place again."
Gui Yao waved her hand and looked at the man in black standing on the street holding the green paper umbrella he bought for her.
In any case, the current task is the most important.
Li Mansion.
The maid led them into the mansion, where a light drizzle of rain fell from the patio. The mansion was decorated in a rather plain style, which matched the feeling Li Jiao had given her.
That day in the palace, Censor Li, whom I had met once, was sitting in the hall with his concubine.
Gui Yao suddenly remembered the four words on the central hall of the general's mansion, but she saw that there was strangely no plaque hanging on the hall of the Li family in the capital.
She lost three families today.
The Gui family is quite skilled in craftsmanship and is not stingy with praise. The Xu family is a happy and lively family, but the greetings from the Li family are a little cold.
Taking advantage of my aunt, I deliberately helped the lady to chat.
Gui Yao bowed slightly and took out the letter from her arms.
Censor Li was very surprised.
"This was written by General Ren. I will bring it out of the palace for you on his behalf." Gui Yao said.
There were obvious differences between the two letters. Gui Yao did not say much, but handed the letter to Censor Li. Anyone who was interested would know the difference at a glance.
The voices of her aunt and concubine came from the east, and Gui Yao realized that the reception maid was still standing by the empty Li Mansion Hall.
And Censor Li almost pretended she didn't exist.
Censor Li laughed.
"Yu Qing's birthday is in winter. My wife and I are thinking of going to Xianyu City then. However, I haven't seen Yu Qing for many years, so I'm not sure if she would like the gift I've prepared. Madam Gui, please come to the inner courtyard and talk to me."
Gui Yao waved her hand and said, "Don't call me that. Please just call me by my name, Your Excellency."
Censor Li stood up with the help of a cane, and Gui Yao followed him. To be honest, his change was indeed very sudden, but this Uncle Li was also a man of his words and deeds.
He appears to be so happy and feels happy inside.
The two of them walked into the inner courtyard step by step.
The Li Mansion is located in the downtown area of the capital. Perhaps because there are few servants, the area of the mansion is not large.
It just lacks the grandeur that should be expected from the queen's mother's family.
Guiyao frowned slightly.
As expected, the maid followed behind him until Censor Li closed the door with a smile. Gui Yao looked through the thin silk gauze window and saw the maid step back a few steps and stood by the yard listening to the rain.
When she turned around again, she saw that Censor Li had a mask on the right side of his face, and his old face was quite close to her.
Gui Yao took half a step back.
Censor Li laughed, turned around, took out a wooden box from the cabinet, opened it, folded out one of the letters he had just held in his hand, and threw the other one into the wooden box.
"My little girl only asked Madam Gui to deliver the letter?"
Somehow, the smile that should have been kind in front of me suddenly became creepy.
Gui Yao pursed her lips and did not nod.
"In that case." Censor Li handed the letter written by Ren Beixi to Gui Yao, and sat back at the main desk in the study. His right hand tapped on the desk unconsciously, and he raised his eyes, staring at Gui Yao with eagle-like eyes.
After staring at each other for less than half a second, he looked away first.
"Please leave, Madam. We are powerless to help you."
Gui Yao refused to leave the room. She straightened her back and said seriously, "There are quite a few letters in the wooden box. Why doesn't my uncle want to open it and take a look?"
The old hand that was about to push the door open paused, and he lowered his voice with a hint of anger: "Gui Yao, Li Jiao is not you, nor is she Ren Beixi. We in the Li family know best how much she means to His Majesty!"
"What's the meaning?" Gui Yao held the door open.
The wrinkles on Li Yushi's face changed from pain to helplessness. He opened his mouth and clenched his teeth.
"Go away and don't come again."
But Guiyao heard his inner voice.
"I hate that I allowed my daughter to take in the Seventh Prince. I also feared the day when my daughter resisted the marriage. Your Majesty didn't kill anyone else, but almost cut off his own finger. If he didn't want my daughter to live, he would die before her."
Congratulations to the host, the completion rate of the main quest "Bird Raising" has increased to 50%.
"Uncle, did you know that Li Jiao fainted last night?"
The wooden box was knocked to the ground by the elbow when he stood up. Among the scattered letters, some damp papers were faintly visible. Just as Gui Yao was about to squat down, she saw that Li Yushi's letter was also broken into pieces.
Now it's time to close your eyes.
You can also see that the ground is full of empty white papers.
Gui Yao turned around and walked out of the room into the rain, walking up to the maid with a determined purpose.
"Sister, if I want to go to Chaochunlou on West Street to buy clothes, what's the shortest way?"
The maid paused and shook her head.
"I have to go back to the palace later. It rained and the streets are muddy..."
The maid said seriously, "I can ask the servant to take Madam back to the palace in the carriage."
Chaochun Tower is not on West Street.
He is indeed the spy in the palace.
It was not difficult for Gui Yao to guess who did these things, but she was a little troubled. Outside the carriage, the coachman was taken over by the black guard, and Gui Yao held Shen Yuan in her palm, frowned and was very worried.
"Did you sleep a little too deeply today?" She smoothed her feathers with her knuckles.
The little bluebird yawned, and its wilted feathers nestled against the scar on Guiyao's palm.
My thoughts were all confused and I couldn't speak.
Guiyao poked the system.
System: The update of the mind-reading diary states that Qingque will become a high-energy, low-energy state after leaving the palace.
"I'll hold her and take a nap." Guiyao said to her aunt.
Then the mind-reading notebook came out in his mind.
As expected, in the capital's atlas, there was some introduction to the little bluebird with 100% favorability.
Including but not limited to height, multiple, suit, and additional newly unlocked low energy status of leaving the palace.
No life-threatening situation, just sleeping.
Gui Yao had no choice but to entrust Shen Yuan to her aunt who was going to visit Li Jiao in the palace tonight.
Just as I was about to close the mind-reading notebook, I saw that there were new updates in the column for Wuhuacheng Susu.
The carriage suddenly jolted.
She suddenly lifted the car curtain and looked at Ren Beixi seriously.
"What was dug out from the cliffs of Wuhua City...was a corpse?"
