Chapter 399 Assassin
The two of them placed three offerings of fruits and pastries in an open space next to the water at the back of the house, then lit joss sticks and burned paper money.

Ye Xinyi was just burning quietly, but Shen Yue was still chanting while burning, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, I am your son-in-law, Shen Yue came out, if you want, just call me to come out. I Although I have never met you, I am very grateful to you. Thank you for bringing Huanhuaner to this world, so I can meet her. You all know her. Don’t worry, I will treat Huanhuaner well for the rest of my life. Please, your spirits in heaven, bless us with safety and success, and give birth to a precious son early. If possible, father-in-law and mother-in-law don’t think I’m too greedy, it’s best to have both children.”

It sounded pretty good at the front, but it became more and more out of shape at the back. Ye Xinyi was angry and funny, raised his hand and grabbed the soft flesh around his waist, and twisted it slightly.

Shen Yue hurriedly begged for mercy, "Okay, okay! Don't say anything, father-in-law, mother-in-law, as you can see, don't worry about me bullying her, only she bullies me."

"You still say!" Ye Xinyi glared at him, but couldn't help laughing the next moment.

She didn't know that he was deliberately easing her heart, but he thought she was just feeling sorry for her, but he didn't know how complicated her mood was tonight.She is not the original Ye Xinyi. This can deceive others, but how can she deceive the eyes of the dead?Perhaps, at this moment, the real Ye Xinyi is already beside her parents, perhaps standing on the sidelines and looking at her?This is actually a good thing that she has inherited this body, this body of flesh and blood, and everything that Ye Xinyi has obtained and borne, she is willing to do so, and she also asks the dead to rest in peace and reach bliss early.

A gust of wind blew the burnt paper money and ash flying, the incense candle flickered, and was almost extinguished for a moment, but it seemed to bring words that others could not understand, like a sigh, like a light smile in relief.

Ye Xinyi was also relieved, feeling that the cloud that had been hanging over her heart had dissipated a bit, she stood up with a chuckle, and took Shen Yue's hand, "Let's go! Go back to sleep!"

Shen Yue stood up and bowed in that direction again, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, forgive us for not being considerate, the current situation has to be so secretive, and when there is a chance in the future, I will pay respects to you. Don't blame it!" While speaking, he extinguished the incense candle, put the offerings back into the basket at hand, and packed the incense candles as they were, and the two of them disposed of the incense ashes and confetti one by one. Then he picked up the basket and turned away.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they walked out of the Resisting Shuang Courtyard, the two of them stopped suddenly, and after looking at each other, You Zhi dodged together, and then hid back to the shadow under the wall.

After they hid for a while, there were footsteps slowly coming towards this place.

There were three people who came, one old and two young, and two maids supported an old woman with gray hair at the temples. Ye Xinyi had good eyesight, and immediately recognized that one of the two maids was the one whom he had seen in the big kitchen that day. peony.

Originally, at this time, there was no one else who could come to the Resisting Shuang Courtyard, but seeing Shaoyao made her even more certain.

With indescribable complexity, Ye Xinyi looked at the old woman they were supporting.

She was wearing a dark green dress, with gray hair at the temples, and a long face. In the dark night and under the light, her facial features were mottled and flickering, and she couldn't see clearly, but only that one side made Ye Xinyi's heart fluctuate slightly. , I only feel kind-hearted, perhaps, this is the power of blood relationship!
However, Mrs. Xia's complexion was a bit haggard, she pursed the corners of her mouth tightly, showing dignity, when she reached the gate of Jushuang Courtyard, she stopped, and said to the two servant girls, "Just wait here for me."

Then she took the basket from Shaoyao, and walked slowly into the courtyard gate, maybe it was because she hadn't eaten and slept well recently, her footsteps were a little frivolous and faltering.

Ye Xinyi's eyes dimmed slightly.

The purpose of Mrs. Xia's appearance at this time and place is not second-guessing. Naturally, it is the same as Ye Xinyi, and she comes to pay homage.But, it's different, Ye Xinyi's feelings for his biological parents are very subtle, not so deep, maybe not as good as Mrs. Xia's feelings for Xia Changqing!
Looking at that place again, under the dim light, the two maidservants were waiting by the side, talking in a low voice.

Ye Xinyi withdrew his gaze and said in a low voice, "Let's go!"

With the lightness skills of the two of them, it would be very easy for them to leave without disturbing anyone.

However, after coming out of Furong Garden, Ye Xinyi pushed Shen Yue and said, "Okay, it's getting late, go back and rest soon, be careful."

When she looked up, she saw Shen Yue looking at her, her eyes were as quiet as it was in the middle of the night, but a faint wave of light in them still warmed her heart, "I'm fine, don't worry!"

Shen Yue silently raised his arms and pulled her into his arms without saying anything, just hugged her quietly for a moment, then let go, smiled at her, his eyes were like the sea of ​​stars, "Let's go!"

Then, he turned around with a cool wave of his hand, and disappeared into the night in two or three steps.

Ye Xinyi stopped in place for a moment, then turned around and headed towards the Wanlv Pavilion.

The night is deep, and the Wanlv Pavilion hidden in the flowers and trees is sleeping quietly in the dark night.

Her departure and return were not noticed by others.

Ye Xinyi gathered up her skirt and was about to walk back to her bedroom when a slight abnormal sound came into her ears.

She paused, and suddenly turned her head to look at a certain place, her eyes glinted darkly.

In the bedroom on the second floor, An Xiang was sleeping peacefully on the bed, when suddenly, there was a slight crashing sound, which was the movement of the bead curtain separating the outer room being pushed aside.

An Xiang suddenly trembled, opened her eyes, and what caught her eyes was a black shadow rushing towards her. She was considered sharp, and seeing the black shadow slashing towards him with a ray of snow light, she hurriedly rolled away. Dodging the sword strike, at the same time, he drew a small knife from under the pillow to block the man's second blow.

With the sound of "Keng", there was a loud noise outside the door, as if someone kicked something hard, it was especially abrupt in the dark night.

The two people in the room were also startled, and almost at the same time, a figure broke through the door, a dagger in his hand, turned into a thunder, and moved towards the black clothes wrapped around his body and covering his face. People cut off.

The man in black lightly touched the dagger that An Xiang was using to block, and retreated sharply, trying to escape through the window.

How could Ye Xinyi let him go so easily?As soon as the short sword was drawn, it stabbed towards the black shadow. The black shadow hit Ye Xinyi's sword with a backhand sword. The sword trembled and buzzed.

In the blink of an eye, the two came to one place, and after breaking each other's dozens of tricks, Ye Xinyi secretly let out a "huh" in his heart, and a trace of doubts arose in his heart. In a moment of dazzlement, that person had already seized the opportunity. , with a feint move, when Ye Xinyi's sword was drawn away, the backhand had already pushed open the window sash behind him, and jumped outward.
