Chapter 66

The two walked out of the shop, Lin Nanjie changed his clothes, and the two walked towards Yanchun Lane.

After getting married, the third daughter of the Xu family lived in an inconspicuous house in Yanchun Lane. The two walked through the long alley and finally found the house at the end. After knocking on the door, it took a long time before someone opened the door.

The person who opened the door was a man with a handsome appearance, tall stature, and seemed a little taciturn.

Through the crack in the door, Lin Nanjie saw that the house was not big and the furnishings were a bit old. There were some half-chopped firewood piled in the corner, and some clothes, half old and half new, were hung outside.

Miss Xu San married despite the opposition of her father and brothers, and lived a poor life.

Lin Nanqie got a lot of information out of housekeeper Jiang at the Xu residence and knew that the man in front of him was the husband of Miss Xu San.

His surname is Yan and his given name is Lang. Both his parents have passed away and he is alone.

Seeing that it was a stranger, he looked alert and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Lin Nan said: "Let's look for the third young lady of the Xu family."

Yan Lang became even more resistant and raised his hand to close the door: "You've got the wrong door."

Lin Nanjie uttered, "Wait a minute!"

Yan Lang ignored it. Just as the door was about to close, a slender and powerful hand pressed down on the door.

Li Chenghuan pressed the door, and Yan Lang couldn't close it no matter how hard he tried. He was a little impatient: "Are you guys done yet?"

Lin Nanjie and Li Chenghuan looked at each other, and Lin Nanjie said, "We are not from the Xu family."

After Yan Lang finished listening, he looked them up and down.

The two people in front of me had extremely outstanding looks, and the clothes they wore did not look like those of ordinary people.

Even if he is not a member of the Xu family, he is someone sent by the Xu family.

Yan Lang looked slightly angry: "You still say no! I've come to disturb you so many times, and you won't be happy until everyone is dead?"

Perhaps it was because of the noise outside that a figure walked out of the house: "Who is outside, making such a commotion?"

Lin Nanqie looked through the door and saw Miss Xu San walking out slowly. When she saw them, her eyes, which had once been full of eagerness, turned guarded and her face turned cold.

She walked forward and pulled Yan Lang, looking at them and said, "No matter who you were sent by, please go back. From now on, just treat me as if I'm dead!"

The couple stood together, glaring at Lin Nanjie and Li Chenghuan.

Lin Nanjie stepped forward and said, "Madam, you misunderstood. I was not sent by the Xu family. I came to give you something."

Miss Xu San looked suspicious, and her tone was still full of doubt: "What are you sending me? Whether it's a banknote or something else, I don't need it."

Lin Nanjie held the urn in his hand, walked forward slowly, and handed it over gently: "I'll hand this to you."

The rosewood box exudes a warm luster.

There was a tablet on the box, with the words "Xianglan, the youngest daughter of the Xu family" written on it.

Miss Xu San stood there in a daze as if struck by lightning, tears streaming down her face. She snatched the box and held it in her arms.

"Little sister..."

The man next to her was silent and silently raised his hand to support her back.

Xu San held Xu Xianglan's urn carefully and wiped it carefully with his sleeve.

"It's all my fault. If I had brought her out with me, she wouldn't have committed suicide."

"Ever since my mother left and my two elder sisters married and moved to other places, she has liked to stay with me. She is quiet and never dares to disobey me."

"Silly girl, how could you bear to leave your sister behind?"

She wiped her tears and looked at Lin Nanjie: "Thank you for sending her here. I apologize to you for offending you just now."

Lin Nanqi said quickly, "We are rude to come here so suddenly. Madam, there is no need for you to be so polite. This time, we are only here to deliver the ashes of the fourth young lady to you, Madam."

Xu San said gratefully: "Thank you very much."

Lin Nanqi hesitated and said, "Something happened in the Xu Mansion. Your father was imprisoned and your brother was dismissed from his official position. But not all of the family property was confiscated. If you go back, you should be able to live a more comfortable life."

Xu San said expressionlessly, "I don't want anything from the Xu Mansion, so just consider it a donation."

She stroked Xu Xianglan's urn and said, "I will bury my little sister properly. After reincarnation, I will never marry into a family like this again."

-

The two of them came out of Yanchun Lane. Lin Nanjie followed Li Chenghuan back to the inn and asked the innkeeper, "Are there any guest rooms upstairs?"

The shopkeeper was a little too enthusiastic about a generous tenant like Li Chenghuan: "Yes, yes, there are two rooms left, one at the end of the corridor, and one next to you, young master. Which one do you want?"

Lin Nanjie hesitated for a moment and looked at Li Chengqian.

The money was spent by the dog emperor.

Li Chengqian glanced at Lin Nanjie: "The one next door."

Lin Nanqi's eyes flashed with a look of no surprise.

[Yes, it is better to live close to you so that you can serve me better. ]

However, Lin Nan said to Li Chengqian: "I'm sorry for making you spend money."

Li Chengqian curled his lips slightly: "It doesn't matter."

Lin Nanqie then asked the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, can you prepare the bath water now?"

The shopkeeper laughed and said, "No problem, sir, just wait in the room."

Lin Nanjie finally took a bath!

During the few days I was locked up in Xu's house, I had good food and drink every day, but I couldn't take a bath, and my body almost stunk.

The bath water was brought in, Lin Nanjie closed the door, and quickly took off his clothes——

Not solved.

Lin Nanjie looked down and saw that the jade buckles on his belt were tightly fastened together.

He pulled hard towards both sides, but the jade buckle remained locked together without any movement.

【……】

What should I do?

[This button is not easy to button or unbutton. ]

Li Chenghuan was in the next room, reading official documents and drinking tea. He was originally looking at the records of the flood in Hangzhou. After hearing the heartbeat, he couldn't help but look towards the next room.

Wouldn't it be faster to ask him for help?

[Forget it, let me study it further.]

Li Chengqian's eyes paused and he took a sip of cold tea.

But I couldn't read a single word of the official document.

Finally, after a cup of tea, Lin Nanjie's heartbeat sounded again.

【Can't be solved! 】

Hearing this angry voice, Li Chengqian finally couldn't help but let out a smile.

[Going to the emperor to unfasten the jade buckle on your belt sounds ridiculous.]

Lin Nanqi couldn't help but complain.

[Am I crazy? ]

【What are the professional qualities of eunuchs? 】

[It would be better to go find Master Bai Zhang. Master Bai Zhang seems to live next door to me.]

Lin Nanjie remembered that Bai Zhang should be in the guest house at this time, so he immediately decided to knock on Mr. Bai's door.

He pushed open the door and saw a familiar figure.

Lin Nanqi hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and called out, "Your Majesty?"

Li Chenghuan turned around.

Lin Nanjie leaned over and looked at where Li Chenghuan was standing.

This is the second floor, with a patio in the middle. There are some banana trees and an apricot tree planted in the courtyard. Unfortunately, the light is not good, so the flowers are sparse.

[What are you doing standing at my door? It seems there is nothing to see.]

Li Chengqian coughed lightly: "What are you doing out here? Aren't you taking a shower?"

Lin Nanjie wanted to go out, turn right and knock on Bai Zhang's door, but his steps stopped abruptly.

"I……"

Li Chenghuan's eyes slid down to his waist and he said slowly, "Don't you know how to solve it?"

Lin Nanqi smiled awkwardly and said, "I am stupid."

Li Chenghuan approached and stepped into the house: "Why don't you come and ask me how to solve it?"

Lin Nanqi backed away, looking away: "I am afraid of disturbing the emperor."

Li Chenghuan bent slightly and placed his hand on the jade button on Lin Nanjie's waist. His slender fingers were extremely flexible and with a "click", the button was unfastened.

"This is not the imperial palace, there is no need to call yourself a slave."

Lin Nan was stunned.

-

Fang Wenjue was busy handling official business all day.

Although the emperor had sent an imperial edict back to the court, reappointing the prefect and asking his successor to take office immediately.

But at present, the position of prefect of Hangzhou Prefecture is vacant and is temporarily held by Fang Wenjue.

The officials of Hangzhou Prefecture were all in a state of panic.

When they woke up, their prefect was gone?

The acting prefect was actually the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple in the capital?

The capital is 180,000 miles away from Hangzhou, and they don’t even know when the Shaoqing will arrive!

Every official on duty was too frightened to speak, for fear that the Shaoqing would catch their pigtails and pull off their black gauze hats.

Fang Wenjue was also very busy.

Not only do they have to handle official business, but they also have to strictly guard against information about the emperor's private visits.

After finishing his shift, Fang Wenjue first pretended to stay at the government office and then returned to the inn.

As soon as he returned to the inn, he saw that the door to the room next to the emperor was open. He had to pass through here to go to his own room, so Fang Wenjue looked inside curiously.

Then I saw two overlapping figures.

The one with his back to the emperor can be seen without a doubt from the style of his clothes.

The person facing him was Eunuch Lin, who had his head slightly lowered, his hair entangled with the emperor's, and they stood in a very suggestive posture.

Fang Wenjue's gaze shifted downward and his eyes widened.

The emperor's hand was seen on Lin Nanqi's belt.

The next second, the belt was untied!

There is also a bath tub next to it.

The barrel was very big and spacious, more than enough for two people to sit in it.

Fang Wenjue was frightened out of his wits.

The Emperor and Eunuch Lin!

This, this, this, it's really scary!

Fang Wenjue looked around and saw that the two people in the room had not noticed anything, so he quickly picked up the hem of his robe and tiptoed back to his room.

After closing the door and bolting it, Fang Wenjue let out a deep breath.

horrible.

So scary!

the other side.

Lin Nanqi looked at the unbuttoned waist button and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

[A torn belt looks good but is useless.]

【I will change to something else tomorrow.】

Li Chengqian looked away with some regret, and glanced at the bath tub beside him: "The water is cold, let the waiter change another tub and wash again."

"Oh, oh." Lin Nanjie replied.

Lin Nanjie sent Li Chenghuan away, changed the water, and finally stepped into the bath tub.

With his whole body wrapped in warm bath water, Lin Nanjie couldn't help but let out a comfortable sigh.

【Very comfortable. 】

Li Chenghuan returned to his room and sat down, feeling something was wrong again.

Although he couldn't hear Lin Nanjie taking a shower, he could hear the voice in his heart.

This was more like torture to him.

The water temperature was too comfortable and Lin Nanjie scrubbed his body happily.

[I haven't showered for several days. I'm almost smelly.]

[It's so comfortable, the skin is stretched~]

[Scrub it thoroughly, your shoulders, arms... your chest, your back...]

Li Chengqian took a sip of cold tea.

After rubbing his whole body, Lin Nan was sweating profusely. He leaned against the bucket and gasped for breath, his face flushed red by the steam.

When people relax, their minds start to become active again.

The playlist starts playing automatically in my mind.

[You carry the load, I ride the horse, we greet the sunrise and see off the sunset]

[We just captured a few demons, and subdued a few devils, demons, and monsters. How come there are so many of them! ]

【Take a stick from my grandson! 】

Li Chengqian coughed violently before he could swallow the tea.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The tea choked his throat and Li Chengqian's romantic thoughts were shattered by the song Lin Nanjie was singing in his head.

If he continued singing, Li Chenghuan could imagine the scene of being hit on the head by a big stick.

Unexpectedly, Lin Nanli likes to listen to this kind of music.

Lin Nanjie was enjoying her bath and singing happily, and she didn't hear anything happening in Li Chenghuan's room.

[Goblins nest together, butterflies fly together~The spring scenery in the garden is so attractive~I quietly ask the holy monk~Is my daughter beautiful~Is my daughter beautiful~]

Li Chengqian was stunned.

The sound of the heart changed, and the demons and monsters just now disappeared in an instant, and the sound suddenly became gentle and melodious.

The lyrics are so straightforward, the love is lingering, and the tone is melodious.

Even though it was Li Chenghuan, he couldn't help but look away, his cheeks slightly hot, but he couldn't help but want to listen.

[What's the use of talking about royal power and wealth? Why worry about the rules and regulations?]

[I only wish for eternity ~ to be with my beloved closely]

[I love you, I love you~I wish we can always be together in this life]

Li Chenghuan's fingers holding the teacup suddenly tightened, and his eyes softened instantly.

The king has power and wealth, and has strict rules and regulations.

Is he really not afraid?

Li Chenghuan sat at the table motionless, as if he had been petrified into a statue.

Lin Nanqi was tired from soaking in the hot spring. His mind went blank and he yawned.

【The Dog Emperor...】

Li Chengqian's heart suddenly began to beat faster.

His eyes were fixed on the wall between him and Lin Nanjie, and his left hand clenched subconsciously.

[The token is still with me. Never mind. I'll return it tomorrow.]

Li Chenghuan loosened his grip, laughed at himself, and drank the cold tea in the cup.

That night, the three of them suffered from insomnia.

Li Chenghuan lay in bed, tossing and turning with the melodies and lyrics in his mind, and he couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

In the lobby downstairs, the shopkeeper and the waiter were asleep, but there was still one person sitting there.

Fang Wenjue still had half a bottle of wine in front of him. He drank it while muttering, "No, it's not right!"

Bai Zhang yawned and put on his clothes as he came down: "Father-in-law, it's so late, why are you drinking here alone?"

Fang Wenjue raised his eyes and glanced at his cheap son-in-law: "Aren't you awake too?"

Bai Zhang chuckled and said, "I missed my wife. I couldn't sleep after tossing and turning. I just got up and wrote a letter to my wife. I will mail it tomorrow morning."

Bai Zhang added: "I have also told my mother-in-law in the letter that everything is going well for me and my father-in-law in Jiangnan."

Fang Wenjue drank alone and said nothing.

Bai Zhang looked at Fang Wenjue's expression and immediately became curious: "Father-in-law, is the official business difficult?"

Fang Wenjue couldn't help but lower his voice. As a minister in the capital, he approached Bai Zhang like a thief and said, "I have discovered something incredible! If I tell you, then, then you will be scared to death!"

Bai Zhang's eyes lit up: "What's the big deal? Tell me quickly!"

Fang Wenjue said stealthily: "Your Majesty..."

Bai Zhang was even more surprised: "Your Majesty?"

Fang Wenjue: "...What a pity, I can't tell you!"

Bai Zhang: "Father-in-law, is there anything that I, your son-in-law, cannot listen to?"

Fang Wenjue glanced at him, snorted, and suddenly became as silent as a saw-mouthed gourd, refusing to say anything.

Bai Zhang was stunned. Isn't this just taking off pants to fart?
