Xiao Jingxi watched Ren Yaoqi slowly walk out of the courtyard, still with a slight smile in his dark and beautiful eyes, but a color of contemplation quietly emerged.
He turned around and slowly walked back to the stone bench and sat down, his slender fingers twisted the round chess pieces that had been retracted, and the previous chess game was resumed one by one, focusing and relaxing.
There was only one person and one sheep left in the quiet courtyard, forming a silent landscape.
I don't know when, a man wearing a gray shirt stood silently behind Xiao Jingxi, and stood silently.
Xiao Jingxi didn't look back. He waited until the chess pieces on the chessboard had been placed before he spoke. His low and muted voice was like an ancient movement: "The Han family's affairs are other housework, so they don't have to intervene."
The man in the gray shirt first unconsciously responded with a yes, and then said again: "Han Dongshan went to ask Manager Gu, who is next to the prince, and Manager Gu sent someone to investigate."
Xiao Jingxi turned his head slightly when he heard the words, and frowned his pretty eyebrows: "Why is the palace so idle these days?"
The gray-clothed man lowered his head, afraid to answer.
Xiao Jingxi looked at the chessboard, changing the chess game on the chessboard with his fingers, and said leisurely: "Go and tell General Manager Gu, even if you can't handle your housework well, what can the Yanbei Palace expect from them?" He said in a tone. Although gentle, the words spoken are extremely heavy.
"Yes, son, the subordinate understands." The gray-clothed man hurriedly bowed his head and responded.
Xiao Jingxi continued to fiddle with the chess game, sometimes backing away and re-walking. The move was silent, only the sound of wind and grass.
Just when the man in gray thought that Xiao Jingxi had nothing to say again, he heard him speak again: "Let's check Han Dongshan."
Although the gray-clothed man was a little surprised why the master suddenly paid attention to the Han family, but he bowed his head in the first place.
"What's going on in the army now?" Xiao Jingxi left the affairs of the Han family aside and asked about other things.
"Back to the son, Mrs. Wu took Ms. Wu back to the house, along with Wu Xiao and an old strategist Zhou He beside him. In the past few days, I have been with the prince three times and the prince met him twice.
Mrs. Wu in his mouth is the wife of the current Ningxia General Soldier Wu Xiaohe, Xiao Wei, the princess of Yanbei Palace, and Xiao Jingxi's aunt.
When Xiao Jingxi heard this, his eyes did not move at all: "I am asking about military affairs, not about the palace."
The gray-clothed man paused and said, "Since the news of the court's disarmament was announced last time, there have been several riots in the Yanbei Army under the instigation of a few people with ulterior motives. The subordinates have followed the son's orders. I stayed on hold for the time being, and secretly recorded those who were provoking things. Today, I heard reports that they plan to gather more people to make trouble in the near future, and also plan to hide in the mountains with money after looting several large shops in Yunyang City. Occupy the mountain as king."
Xiao Jingxi did not speak when he heard the words, staring at the chessboard with a thoughtful look, and he didn't know whether he was thinking about the chess path or the matter of his subordinates.
After a while, he picked up the chess pieces on the chessboard that were gradually winning and losing one by one: "Go and let Tonghe prepare the carriage and return to Yunyang City today."
"The White Dragon Temple..."
Xiao Jingxi said calmly: "Tongde will stay."
His voice just fell. I didn't know where he came out again, a man with an ordinary face and a medium build, saluting Xiao Jingxi respectfully.
"Give you one month to settle the affairs of the Bailong Temple and the major monasteries." Xiao Jingxi glanced at Tongde who had just walked out, and whispered.
"Yes, son." Tongde bowed his head and replied.
Xiao Jingxi got up and walked out. The slender figure quickly disappeared at the entrance of the cave.
When Ren Yaoqi came out, she didn't see Xiao Jinglin. The maid Apple squatted under the eaves in front of the wing. Seeing Ren Yaoqi came out and ran over and followed Ren Yaoqi.
No one was encountered along the way, and the master and servant left the yard.
At the gate of the yard, Xi'er, the maid beside Li, was calling the two women aside for questioning. Seeing Ren Yaoqi came out and greeted him, "Miss, are you okay?"
Xi'er looked at Ren Yaoqi worriedly.
"I'm fine, the princess just bought me a cup of tea." Ren Yaoqi comforted Xi'er with a warm voice, "Why are you here?"
"My wife heard that you were taken away by the princess of the Yanbei Palace, and she was a little worried, so she sent the servants and maidservants over to watch." Xi'er said curiously and asked: "Miss Fifth, how do you recognize the princess? "
Ren Yaoqi shook his head as he walked: "I saw the princess for the first time today. I didn't know him before."
"Then why did she ask you to drink tea for no reason?" Xi'er did not appear to be unbelief, but was very curious and puzzled.
I heard that the princess in the Yanbei Palace was very strange and would not go back to the palace all year round. She was obviously a girl, but he had to patrol the border with several Yanbei Palace generals. He was stronger than a man.
This princess is a rumored character. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are no different from those sung in the drama and the legendary women written in the books. Such a woman suddenly forced her lady to drink tea. The remote Ang hasn't seen the two before, which is really confusing.
"The princess only said that he wanted to find someone to accompany him to drink tea. As for why it is me, I don't know." Ren Yaoqi explained patiently.
It's not just a few maids who are surprised that Xiao Jinglin dragged Ren Yaoqi to drink tea. When they returned to the rest yard, Li, who had been waiting for a long time to come out to find someone, was also puzzled.
Ren Yaoqi said it again in accordance with the answer just now, but Li couldn't think of a reason after thinking about it for a long time.
Mother Zhou comforted the Li family: "Since the princess is not malicious, you don't have to worry about your wife. And the princess likes our fifth young lady, which is a good thing. Although this princess does not often return to the Yanbei Palace, it is extremely It's like Yan Beiwang."
Li nodded: "You are right. Although the princess has a weird temperament, he has never heard of anything evil."
Ren Yaoqi didn't know that Xiao Jingxi had returned to Yunyang City shortly after she left. She and Li returned to Baihe Town early the next morning.
When the carriage went down the mountain road, the wind opened the curtain. Ren Yaoqi glanced out at random, just in time to see two nuns wearing light gray robes coming up the mountain along the mountain road while talking.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but take a look at the older nun. She has fair skin and charming appearance. She has a somewhat unintentional flattery in her eyes when she is talking to others. You can see the black hair from the edge of the hat on the ear. By the way, she didn't shave her head.
Ren Yaoqi was thinking about the identity of this nun, but the nun turned her head and glanced at this side slightly as if feeling something. Seeing that it was the carriage used by the female family of the big family, she turned her head and continued with a younger one. The nun joked.
Sitting in the carriage, Ren Yaoqi could hear her sober laughter. However, the little nun who was traveling with him saw passers-by looking at them, and whispered to remind the nun with a little voice.
The nun with the hair was unheard of, still talking and laughing loudly.
Mother Zhou looked out and frowned, "Where does this woman look like a monk?"
However, Ren Yaoqi remembered what he had heard about a female nun near Baiyunyi when he came to Bailong Temple last time. This nun must be the one with the surname Liang.
Seeing is a wanton temper.
However, when something like that happened last time, she was still able to stay peacefully in this pure Buddhist place, and she was not affected. This woman should not be a simple person either.
The carriage passed by the two nuns, and Ren Yaoqi slowly retracted his sight.
After going down the mountain and turning into the official road from the Huanshan Trail, it didn’t take long. I saw a few carriages coming from the direction of Yunyang City. The style of the carriage was actually the same as Ren Yaoqi and Li’s ride. Are very similar.
"Madam, the second wife's carriage is behind us, coming from the direction of Yunyang City." Someone reported.
"Second sister-in-law said before that she had returned to Yunyang City to attend her nephew's wedding banquet. It should have come from her natal family. Please stop in front and wait for the second sister-in-law's carriage to go first." Li ordered softly.
So the carriage of Li's and his party stopped slowly, and the carriage behind it quickly caught up and stopped beside the carriage of Li's. The second wife Su raised the curtain, revealing an ordinary and gentle face.
Li also lifted the curtain of the car and called out "Second Sister-in-law" with a smile.
Su Clan nodded gently: "Just seeing the Ren family carriage ahead, I thought that some master in the house came to Bailong Temple to burn incense. It turned out to be the third younger sibling."
Ren Yaoqi called out his second aunt.
"Huh? Five Sisters are there too?" Ren Yaoting's voice sounded in Su's carriage, and then Ren Yaoting's face appeared by the curtain.
Su Clan frowned and chicked at his daughter: "Ting'er, don't say hello to the third aunt? No rules."
Ren Yaoting hurriedly called "Third Aunt", but his eyes were cast into Li's carriage.
Li smiled and spoke for Ren Yaoting: "Their sisters haven't seen each other for a few days. It's natural to get closer."
"Mother, I want to sit with my fifth sister. Last time I talked about my big cousin with my fifth sister. The fifth sister said that most of the women in the capital are spoiled and hard to talk. But my big cousin is not. My daughter is going to talk to her. Cousin's business." Ren Yaoting begged.
Su Clan did not stop when he heard the words, nodded gently and said: "You ask your fifth sister what you mean, if she wants, your sisters should go to the carriage at the back."
