Chapter 191 Nan Qing
Zhuo Ran had only lived in He Xi's mansion for a while, and now he felt that it would take some effort to check He Xi's mansion.But Sai Jin's words are also right, what He Xi knows can't be kept silent, there must be someone else who is the breakthrough.

Zhuo Ran sighed softly, she turned her eyes to look at Sai Jin who was looking down for something, although there was some anger in her eyes, but it was hidden by Zhuo Ran's stereotyped smile, making it difficult for people to notice it.Sai Jin didn't look at her, so he didn't notice Zhuo Ran looking at her. She buried her head in the book, trying to find news that would be beneficial to Zhuo Ran.

Although this person does not fit Zhuo Ran's imagination, it is not very strange that Zhuo Ran is willing to trust her.Sai Jin frowned and searched, but Zhuo Ran just turned over a few times in vain and then stood there. What Zhuo Ran cares about now is not the secret that He Xi knows. When Nie Hanshan gets the news of He Xi's death, what will Won't do anything out of the ordinary.Zhou Yu and Wu Song are still staying there, and if Chang Yinyu and Mu Heng are also in trouble, she is also at her wits' end right now and can't help her with anything.

But when it came to Nie Hanshan, Zhuo Ran was thinking that since he knew He Xi well, he must know more than Zhuo Ran, so Nie Hanshan might be a better clue.But if we go to Yongzhou now, what about Tuzhou?There are still so many ancient Qiang people, it is impossible to kill them all, but if they do nothing, Tuzhou will not be taken down so easily by Zhuo Ran just because of the name of Princess Nanxiang. Easy to do.

Zhuo Ran leaned on the bookcase to calm down, she was thinking about how to make Tuzhou no longer be affected by Yongzhou.She was thinking before that if she followed Nie Hanshan's thinking, Yongxin Tu Sanzhou would definitely not do any good in her hands. After all, Nie Hanshan was the master.But now it's different, Tuzhou was taken by her first, so it doesn't matter anymore, Nie Hanshan has no reason to speak now, and now Zhuo Ran hasn't gone back yet.

Sai Jin turned around for a long time and didn't hear Zhuo Ran say a word. She tilted her head slightly, and saw Zhuo Ran leaning there in a daze, her expression slightly tired. Sai Jin thought she was tired, but she still thought about it. Wrong, Princess Nanxiang is weak.Coming from Yuzhou, if the footsteps are fast, it will take a few hours, and it shouldn't be said to be tiring.

But Zhuo Ran was different.She looks the same as ordinary people, but in essence she is much different.Sai Jin got up, she called Zhuo Ran softly, and found that there was still no movement, so she approached and called again.

Zhuo Ran heard clearly this time, she suddenly came back to her senses, looked at Sai Jin and frowned slightly: "What's the matter?"

"If Your Royal Highness is tired..." Sai Jin paused, she turned her eyes and saw the side of Zhuo Ran's neck, the tooth marks under the half-covered collar were very obvious, the red marks were still bloody, she didn't know it immediately What to say.

"I'm not tired." Zhuo Ran sensed her gaze, and raised her hand to cover it, "I was just wondering if I should take you back to Yongzhou."

Sai Jin cleared her throat, and she took half a step back: "Doesn't it depend on you whether you want to go back to Yongzhou or not? It's just Your Royal Highness. In fact, it's not impossible for me to stay in Tuzhou. There are too many people in Yongzhou."

"Zishatang is also very important," Zhuo Ran said softly, "I won't let you take risks easily. After thinking about it, if you and Zishatang stay in Tuzhou, as for these ancient Qiang people, want to stay Those who are here will stay, those who don't want to dare to resist will be killed directly, don't leave any troubles."

Sai Jin nodded: "I see, Your Royal Highness."

"Let's change the name in the future." Zhuo Ran said softly, "Your Highness, just keep it in your heart. By the way, Sai Jin, before Wei Xun told me about those things in Gaodu, you let Wei Xun in Gaodu treated me like that, I thought at the time that I would let me know who is behind the scenes, and I would definitely not let her go easily. I didn't expect you to be a woman now, what should I do?"

"How about women?" Sai Jin raised his eyes, "Do women have such special characteristics? It's just that most of them in Gaodu are for testing purposes. There is no other intention. Although sometimes she does something on a whim to make Her Royal Highness feel sad. It's my fault. Whatever your highness wants, just say it."

Zhuo Ran couldn't help laughing: "Although the attack was ruthless, I like it. It's okay, we are together now, but Wei Xun's attack was too ruthless, and the scar on my leg is still there."

Sai Jin shook his head helplessly: "It was really..."

"It doesn't matter," Zhuo Ran said softly, "this is not the time to talk about these things. Sai Jin, since you stay, go and deal with other matters first. I will go to you later, and we will go back soon Yongzhou is gone."

Sai Jin nodded: "Yes."

"Do you have to look at these things?" Chang Yinyu frowned, looking at the people in front of him who have been looking at the New Year's goods sold at the street stalls. Although it is understandable to keep these things here during the Chinese New Year, it is a bit too much , she did a little too much.

Mu Heng looked back: "Do you have an opinion?"

Chang Yinyu pouted: "I don't."

Chang Yinyu arrived in Suicheng years ago.After wandering in Suicheng for a long time, he couldn't tell what he wanted to do. It was unrealistic to break into Mu Heng's house directly. It would be too vulgar and old-fashioned to say that going to a hotel to strike up a conversation, so he thought It's a good idea.

The so-called good way is to play tricks in Mucheng's inn and eat the overlord's meal, using the name of the so-called girl Li's friend to disturb them.When Mu Heng heard that it was Miss Li, although his attitude changed a little, he still didn't believe it completely. She pinched Chang Yinyu's ear and asked for a long time before she found out that Miss Li was his master.

"How could Xiaqiu raise someone like you?" Mu Heng frowned, puzzled, "Obviously Xiaqiu is not like this, did you come here specifically to tarnish Xiaqiu's reputation?"

"Am I crazy?" Chang Yinyu took out a letter from his sleeve and threw it on the table with a "slap", "Look for yourself! It wasn't written by Miss Li herself, you can send me right now yamen."

Mu Heng unfolded the envelope doubtfully. What Zhuo Ran said was simple but clear in meaning. If he had any difficulties, he needed to ask Mu Heng to come to Yongzhou for help.Mu Heng frowned slightly, looked carefully and still didn't find any clues, so he believed it.

She excused Chang Yinyu to talk about something.Only then did Chang Yinyu tell her Zhuo Ran's order seriously, and Mu Heng gave a "tsk" and said, "I didn't ask you to say this. I will definitely help Xiaqiu and I hit it off as soon as we hit it off, but now there is a problem... ..."

"...I haven't celebrated the New Year with my parents for a long time. We have to wait until the New Year is over before we can start." Mu Heng said without waiting for Chang Yinyu to refuse, "Don't look at me like this. There is one more thing, I If you leave Suicheng, you must not tell about Xiaqiu. You must not reveal any news that I want to go to Yongzhou, and you must not rush me, everything needs to be arranged by me."

Chang Yinyu raised his eyes: "It seems that I am the one who planned it?"

"It doesn't matter," Mu Heng said, "Now you are begging me, not me, you have to listen to me, otherwise I would rather ignore Xiaqiu's plea, and you can go back and return to your life by yourself."

"It seems that my master is not lying when he said that you know everything." Chang Yinyu nodded, "As long as you are one of your own, then so be it, I will listen to you."

As a result, it took a long time to stop and go along the way.It's not because of anything else, it's just that Mu Heng is too difficult to manage, and Chang Yinyu is not a patient person, he was forced by Mu Heng to wait, and finally couldn't wait, so he asked such a question aloud.

But it was of no use.

"I didn't ask you before, how is Xiaqiu's health?" Mu Heng looked at him, "Do you still have the symptoms of being out of breath? Are you still uncomfortable?"

Chang Yinyu frowned slightly: "What else?"

Mu Heng's eyes widened: "Aren't you Xiaqiu's subordinate? How could you not know? When I came back to Suicheng, Xiaqiu was so weak. I managed to cure her with a lot of methods and herbs... It can be regarded as cured, at least it won't make her feel particularly uncomfortable, how is it now?"

Chang Yin was startled, sure enough, Zhuo Ran had something to hide from them during this time.Although I don't know what happened to Zhuo Ran, but Zhuo Ran didn't show anything in front of them, presumably it was the effect of Li Yuchuan.He suddenly thought of the reason why Zhuo Ran asked Mu Heng to come over. Did Zhuo Ran feel that there was something wrong with his body? What happened? Chang Yinyu clenched his fingers.

"I don't know." Chang Yinyu said softly, "But seeing that nothing is wrong now, it's good for Master Hou to be by her side, at least he can watch her. Can the last illness be eradicated? You are sure Is she cured?"

"I..." Mu Heng paused, "How should I put it, although I prepared some medicine for her, but I don't know much about it in the later stage. If I take the medicine on time, there will be no problems. She resisted when I asked her to take medicine, but that Li Yuchuan can still control Xiaqiu, are they together now, are they okay?"

Chang Yinyu shook his head: "I don't know, you can go and see for yourself when you get to Yongzhou."

Mu Heng paused, and said, "What's wrong with you? Why do you speak so awkwardly?"

"No..." Chang Yinyu sighed, "By the way, why didn't you let your parents know that you were going to Yongzhou? Afraid they would worry?"

Mu Heng nodded and shook her head again, she said: "It's not all because they are worried. I felt that Xiaqiu's identity was not right from the beginning, and I have heard a lot of rumors these days. I know that Xiaqiu must be I can get what I want, and I can help her because I really want to make her a friend. As long as she can succeed, I will be happy. But my parents don’t know what I’m thinking, they’re just ordinary people , I can get involved but they don't need it, they just live their lives well, when I finish my work, I will still be their daughter, in fact nothing will change."

"Your idea is interesting." Chang Yinyu looked at her.

Mu Heng raised his eyebrows: "That's natural."

"Okay," Chang Yinyu said, "Why don't you continue on your way now, not only you, I'm also worried about my little master's health, if something really happens, Uncle Zhou..."

Mu Heng nodded: "Okay, let's go."

Zhuo Ran didn't see Li Xunchuan when she entered the room, and Xi Yu disappeared, and she didn't see anyone when she searched around.It was getting dark quickly.Zhuo Ran stood under the eaves and looked into the distance, but she couldn't see anything except the chill and coldness of the sky. She watched the sky gradually turn dark, and she didn't know how long she had stood under the porch.

He Xizhi's death, in the past, she would have lost control and punished Sai Jin to vent herself, but now she can't.After following her heart, Zhuo Ran took everything lightly. She would not lose control of her emotions, but would completely hide the negative side and replace it with a positive side.Zhuo Ran was very pleased, but besides being relieved, he felt a little empty and unreal.

What is she thinking?He Xi's clue is broken, can she really face it so calmly?Zhuo Ran herself didn't believe that she would have such an ability to convince herself, but everything was so real, when she sensed something was wrong, her body had already made a decision for her, just like now.Although she feels helpless, there are always other emotions that can pull her. What kind of omen is this?

Zhuo Ran sighed deeply, pinched the red string on her wrist with her fingers, and managed to gather her fluttering thoughts back.Before she could feel the chill all over her body, a heavy weight fell on her shoulders, and she was immediately wrapped in warmth.

Zhuo Ran looked back, and sure enough, she saw Li Xunchuan smiling at her, with Li Xunchuan's big cloak on her shoulders, which was still warm.Zhuo Ran went to find Li Yuchuan's hand, and said softly, "Why are you back so late?"

"Why did you even take off your cloak?" Li Yanchuan held onto the ice cold, and said in a deep voice, "How long have you been waiting here? Your hands are so cold, what should you do if you get sick?"

Zhuo Ran smiled lightly and said, "It's all right. It's a kind of fun to look at this dim snow scene. It's just a pity that Master Hou didn't see it."

"My blemishes are even more beautiful than them, so what's the point of looking at those scenery?" Li Xunchuan leaned close to her, "Lean in my arms, Xiyu has already arranged a place to live, and I'll take you there in a while."

"Hmm..." Zhuo Ran responded, and she raised her eyes slightly, "It's just that He Xi's yard is still empty, and everything can be fully utilized."

"I don't want you to touch this place, it's not clean." Li Yuchuan thought for a while and said, "Well, it's not that it's not clean, it's just that I want to stay away from these people and be alone with you."

Zhuo Ran replied leisurely, she leaned on Li Yanchuan's shoulder, and said softly: "It still feels a little unrealistic, He Xi died like this, and the things I thought about before are so difficult, now I have to see to the end." Han Shan has some secrets, I have to think about it, what should I do."

Li Xunchuan rubbed her shoulders: "I'm very happy, you didn't do what you did on the frontier battlefield. In just a few days, my flaws have grown so much."

"It's one year older." Zhuo Ran sneered, "Children will also become adults. I also feel that I have changed a bit, but I am very happy. I am very satisfied when I become a person who makes you feel at ease. .”

Li Xunchuan gave a soft "hmm".

After waiting for a while, the snow stopped temporarily.Li Xunchuan circled around the courtyard twice, he dissipated the breath from his body, gathered enough coldness, and threw himself in front of Zhuo Ran, Zhuo Ran immediately supported Li Xunchuan with his arms, and was so excited by the cold air that he couldn't help covering his lips and coughing a few times , she frowned and looked at Li Yuchuan, not knowing why.

Li Xunchuan rubbed her back: "Are you awake?"

Zhuo Ran smiled: "Is this considered revenge? You bite me again, do you think I'm rarely sick?"

Li Xunchuan shook his head, he squatted down slightly, picked up Zhuo Ran's knees, and carried the person outside like this.Zhuo Ran put her arms around Li Yanchuan's neck, she frowned and looked at Li Yanchuan: "I told you not to hug me, your hand..."

"It doesn't matter," Li Yuchuan walked steadily, "Your trousers, shoes and socks are wet, don't touch the ground anymore, I will carry you back. If you stay calm and don't move, naturally I won't have any major problems."

Sure enough, Zhuo Ran didn't move anymore.Li Xunchuan looked down at her: "Xiaqiu, Xiyu and I just dealt with the matter of the ancient Qiang people. These people are not the same group of people who went to attack Yuzhou. These people are strong in appearance. It’s just a pile of rubbish, and I feel like there’s a big problem.”

"Then have they left Tuzhou?" Zhuo Ran said, "My thoughts are in a mess now, they are not gods, they can move quietly without us knowing, but I really can't think of anything."

"You're tired." Li Yuchuan said softly, "It's okay, don't think about it when you're tired, just listen to me first. Xiyu and I locked them up. Although it's useless to lock them up, it's good for Sai It's good for Jin. If you want Sai Jin to stay here, you have to think about what to do next for her..."

"Wait..." Zhuo Ran corrected him, "It's not that I want to think about it for her. Zishatang has been doing things by itself for so many years. Sai Jin is capable of handling everything. We can't have all obedient people under our hands." , This is not good for us. Sai Jin, although it is only the first meeting, but I like her very much, and I think she should be a person with ideas. I am willing to trust her once, and she will definitely not let me down. "

"I don't worry about the person you pick." Li Yanchuan replied.

Zhuo Ran let out a "hmm".Li Xunchuan pressed against her forehead. Zhuo Ran was very familiar with this movement. Li Xunchuan was probably taking temperature to see if she had any signs of fever. She didn't move, but just rubbed against Li Xunchuan's chin, and said softly, "What is Xiyu looking for?" place?"

Li Xunchuan smiled: "It's just an inn, with charcoal fire burning, it won't freeze you."

"Oh." Zhuo Ran closed her eyes.When he opened his eyes again, Li Yanchuan had already placed her on the couch, stretched out his arms and poured a cup of hot water, and after a little shaking, he brought her in front of Zhuo Ran.

"I won't let you take a bath anymore, I'm afraid you'll catch a cold." Li Xunchuan took off her wet clothes as soon as he entered the door. Looking at Zhuo Ran wrapped in a thick quilt, he pointed at the tip of Zhuo Ran's nose, "Drink some water, Your voice is hoarse."

Zhuo Ran touched the water glass with both hands, Li Yanchuan supported the bottom of the glass, and said softly: "It's a little hot, don't worry, drink slowly."

Zhuo Ran lowered her head and took a sip, and drank it when she felt it was not hot. Li Yanchuan touched the back of her neck, Zhuo Ran grabbed his arm, sniffed and said softly, "When... shall we return to Yongzhou?"
