Chapter 6: Night attack

The Tianque Building on Xuanwu Street is known as the first meal in the royal capital. It is hard to find a place to spend money every day. The treasurer is the old house servant who was named Ye. It is loyal and shrewd. This money tree came into his hands. There have been no mistakes, so Ye Hong, who was in charge of the work, was very relieved.
However, I don’t know what happened recently. The Patriarch, who has always been faceless, came here twice in a month. Although he didn’t show up or bother him, but such a big Buddha stayed in the private room without saying anything. Drinking tea salty, the shopkeeper was still a little flustered. Unexpectedly, after adding some water, Crescent Moon took the initiative to call him out, and he hurriedly wiped off his sweat and withdrew.
Then he came to the lobby to inspect as usual, and the guy greeted him as soon as he came downstairs, and then slammed the two people in the middle of the lobby. He glanced, and the corners of his mouth twitched-isn't that the person next to King Lan?
Now that the situation is so delicate, these two masters are going to come to Tianquelou for dinner. The room leaks in the night rain, and Ye Huaiyang is here today. If he doesn’t handle it well, he might have to leave tomorrow. .
The shopkeeper was hesitating, and the crescent moon just came down from the upper floor. The emerald green skirt swayed down against the carved railing, turning up layers of waves. The shopkeeper was even more nervous in his eyes, and his heart was up and down.
"Miss Crescent Moon, why did you come down? Did the Patriarch have any orders? Just tell me, I will send someone to prepare immediately."
"No, you can entertain those two people."
The shopkeeper was surprised when he heard the words, but he didn't ask much wittyly, and only replied respectfully: "Yes, I know what to do, girl, don't worry."
Crescent nodded slightly, turned around and went back upstairs.
After that, Lu Heng and Tang Qingfeng spent the whole afternoon here. After eating the snacks, they began to listen to people telling the ancient times. The storyteller invited by Tianque Tower is not an ordinary person, and he talked about a strange and strange story vividly, with birds and beasts inside. He broke into the pavilion, skimmed over the zenith and stepped onto the table, rushing to spread his wings and tail, so dazzling.
Only Lu Heng devoted himself from beginning to end. Tang Qingfeng had long been unable to sit still. After stabbing him with his arm a few times, there was no movement. He had to hold his breath and listen to him, unconsciously, dizzy. The setting sun fell to his feet from the window, and a plate of melons and pastries was finished. Lu Heng patted his hands full of crumbs, and then called Xiao Er to checkout.
The moment Tang Qingfeng stepped out of the Tianque Tower and stepped onto the carriage, Tang Qingfeng finally couldn't help it, and said with frowning eyes: "You really came to enjoy the food. You haven't moved your all afternoon. Is it possible that you are waiting for Yejia? Bring it to your door?"
"Isn't it just delivered by myself?" Lu Heng smiled meaningfully.
Tang Qingfeng hated him the most for making mystery, but he didn't have his brains to turn as fast, so he could only stare at him every time, waiting for him to reveal the answer. However, this time Lu Heng was quite interesting, and instead of going around with him, he guided him step by step to the answer.
"If you think about it, since we returned to the royal capital, people from every major family wanted to take a detour when they saw us, but Yejia went the other way, obviously there was no seat, so he just vacated a private room. The snacks have been sold out, but we have everything we ordered. I don’t have to say you want to understand the mystery of this."
Tang Qingfeng couldn't help but come up with four words in his heart-wanting to cover it up.
"But this alone cannot prove anything..."
"I can't prove anything." Lu Heng interrupted him, and resumed his giggle mode, "So I said I came to eat, and the specific situation has to wait for the shadow guard to come back from the Tianqi Tower to judge."
Tang Qingfeng turned his back angrily, completely giving up discussing serious matters with him.
At the other end, Ye Huaiyang also returned to Yefu from the Tianque Tower, only to avoid hitting her by taking another road, arriving earlier than them.
As night fell quickly, the huge mansion was covered with dark gray tulle. The jade hook water ring wall lamp on the inner side of the courtyard was lit up for the first time, casting a milky white halo, and occasionally a cool breeze blew around. The ripples reflected the entire courtyard radiantly.
At this time, Ye Huaiyang would come to the backyard and walk into a small nest covered with green grass surrounding a fence. Then a chubby dumpling would pounce on her, licking her face while crawling on her, plump From time to time, the palms slid across her waist, eyes and neck, making her laugh.
"Lan Lan, don't do it, it's time to eat, come down quickly...well!"
Crescent Moon heard a bang, as if something fell on the ground, and then heard Ye Huaiyang snorting, she was shocked, thinking that Lanlan was not seriously injured to Ye Huaiyang, so he ran over in a hurry. Ye Huaiyang was actually pressed under her body by it, but she was playing hard. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with her. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief and walked slowly over to restack the messed bamboo shoots in Lanlan’s rice bowl. in.
"Miss, you can't always let it be so noisy, what if you accidentally hurt you someday?"
"It's okay, I can play with it more before it grows up."
Ye Huaiyang panted, supporting herself with one hand and sitting up with one hand, while the other hand grabbed bamboo shoots and stuffed Lanlan. He held it in her arms and gnawed a few times and then raised her head to look at her. He repeated it several times and made Ye Huaiyang. He didn't laugh or cry, so he raised his hand and rubbed his half-moon ear, it seemed to be quite enjoyable, his eyes were narrowed into a slit, and he drilled into Ye Huaiyang's arms.
Crescent Moon couldn't stand it anymore, and walked over to pull its arm, sharing some weight for Ye Huaiyang.
"Look, miss, it's not delicious anymore."
Ye Huaiyang held back his smile and hugged Lan Lan to the side to sit down, and reluctantly assumed a parental gesture: "Okay, don't make trouble, sit down and eat."
Lanlan blinked her big eyes and looked at her for a while, and finally realized that she was not joking, so she silently took the bamboo shoots and started to nibble wholeheartedly, like a very obedient child, Ye Huaiyang's eyes became extremely gentle when she stared at it. , And wanted to go forward to feed it personally, Crescent quickly stopped her.
"The slave and maid must be honest, you are too used to it, not to mention how lazy it is. If you stick to you every day, it will be difficult to find a partner in the future."
Ye Huaiyang smiled, her phoenix eyes bent into a crescent moon, "It's less than one year old, what kind of partner is it looking for." After that, she felt funny, and added, "Besides, I haven't seen others in Wangdu. Pandas, I’m afraid I’ll have to travel thousands of miles to the middle of Shu to pair up, and then you will feel even more accustomed to it.

Crescent Moon was helpless and stopped speaking, but felt a little comfort in her heart. After all, Ye Huaiyang’s people are mature and stable, and only when facing Lanlan can they show that girl's disposition. Let her be accustomed to love and love. Pay more attention to yourself in the future, and don't let Lan Lan hurt her.
Thinking of this, Ye Huaiyang suddenly asked her nonchalantly: "Crescent Moon, do you hear any sound?"
Crescent Moon shook her head, her ears were filled with the sound of meat dumplings chewing bamboo shoots, nothing else.
Ye Huaiyang turned and looked at the next door, listened for a moment, with deep eyebrows, and just about to let Crescent Moon take Lanlan away, the courtyard wall was suddenly shaken out of a big hole by external force, and countless cracked tiles and rocks flew towards them, Ye Huaiyang rushed towards Lanlan before he even thought about it, and firmly protected it under her body, and her arm was cut with blood stains instantly.
The night house guards heard the loud noise and immediately gathered in the backyard. Ci Yuan rushed to Ye Huaiyang's side for the first time. When he was about to see her hurt, he saw her wave his hand, and then silently pointed to the side of Lan Wangfu. , He immediately understood, and led a dozen guards toward the wall hole. As soon as he reached the aisle between the two mansions, a black-clothed man's body blocked the way. He knelt down to take a look, and his heart was bright. .
It seems that the man in black was killed by hitting the wall with a palm of his hand, and even the night palace was affected, which shows the depth of his inner strength.
Just as he was thinking, another black-clothed man flew towards this side uncontrollably, only hearing a bang, half of the wall fell, and his sight was no longer obstructed, Ye Huaiyang stood up supported by the crescent moon, his face looked like shining The moonlight on the glazed tiles was cold and lonely.
Prince Lan's Mansion entered the assassin.
People gathered under the Chongxiao Pavilion. If it weren't for the people in black with their faces covered, they would not be able to tell the enemy from us. There were screams in the shadows of the swords, lights and swords. As if it had been corroded, it couldn't stop the spread of the fishy smell, spreading far to Yefu, which was disgusting.
Tang Qingfeng stood upright at the entrance of the attic like a door god, but anyone who tried to cross him was knocked down to the bottom of the steps. The rest of the shadow guards were scattered around, fighting the people in black hardly. Upon seeing this, Ci Yuan immediately led the people into the battle. He slowly gathered from the outer circle. The man in black was forced to retreat to the center of the open space. Although he had already been wiped out, he was still fighting for the trapped beasts, as if he would not kill Chu. Don't let go of the panic.
Lu Heng stood in the building and watched for a while, and suddenly moved up to say something. Tang Qingfeng immediately left the door, rushing to the middle of the black-clothed men like lightning, grabbed one of them by the throat and dragged him back, Shadow Guard They had a tacit understanding and rushed forward to wipe out all the people in black who were chasing them. Seeing that the situation was not right, the others immediately flew towards the courtyard wall.
Pouch.
Half of the snow blade shimmered across the chest of the leader, blood gushing out like a flood of opening gates, the man staggered a few steps, and fell to the ground before he had time to sigh, and the rest of the black clothes lived in life. Staying at the pace, staring at Ci Yuan who didn't know when to flash to the front with fear. At this moment, Tang Qingfeng had quietly arrived behind them, swung his sword and drew a river of blood, and several people held their hands at the same time. His neck fell in horror, his eyes opened violently, and he couldn't close it until death.
Suddenly it was terribly quiet.
Ye Huaiyang ignored the crescent block and walked between the two courtyard walls with his injured arm. Just after he stopped, he heard Tang Qingfeng say to Ci Yuan: "Thank you, brother, for your help. When the matter is over, let me ask Thank you, the host."
Ci Yuan looked at the mess and the man in black who was clamped in the back. He arched his hand in front of the sword, and then he was about to pull away. Who knew that he was smashed by something as soon as he took a step. He subconsciously picked it up. When I got up, I found that it was a waist card, and under the bright moonlight, a carved elk was shining with silver light.
This is the thing on the assassin, how could it be printed with the emblem of the Ye Family?
His face changed abruptly, before he had time to react, Chu Jinglan and Lu Heng had already passed through the mountain of corpses and came to him. Tang Qingfeng snatched his waist card smoothly, and saw the pattern suddenly become angry.
"Good night, you are so lingering!"
Lu Heng frowned. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a condensed voice behind Ci Yuan.
"Why is my night family lingering?"
Ye Huaiyang walked out of the gloom, her Zhu lips pressed tightly, as if hesitated, her icy eyes swept over the crowd one by one, and finally stopped on Chu Jinglan, accurately capturing the strange color passing by in his eyes.
What did she miss?
Ci Yuan whispered to Miss, and immediately presented another waist card, Ye Huaiyang glanced at it, and instantly furious, regardless of the injury on his arm, he reached out and knocked the waist card down. Ground!
Chu Jinglan looked at her with no ups and downs in his emotions.
Ye Huaiyang was stunned by the indifferent gaze. He took a deep breath and lifted his eyes to look around. Suddenly, he found that there was a man in black who had been captured alive, and he suddenly smirked.
"Master, can you let me participate in the interrogation together? I would like to ask if I was full of food at Ye Huaiyang, and sent such a group of rice buckets to kill and hurt myself first!"
Neither Lu Heng nor Tang Qingfeng saw Huaiyang staying overnight, and they were shocked at this moment.
Ye Family Patriarch... lives next to them?
