Gu Xiefei had already slipped away with Zhao Changqing's money bag in his arms. He met Wang Houting, but was blocked by Wang Houting: "What? He cheated the honest man again."

Gu Xiefei smiled and said, "I didn't cheat him. Will I go to Xieyue Street at night?"

Wang Houting shook his head, suddenly patted Gu Xiefei on the shoulder, pointed to the gate of Tiance Mansion, and saw a group of Jinlin Guards entering the gate, and the leader was the deputy commander Yuan Menkun.

Yuan Menkun came to welcome the eldest princess back to the palace, and came to Baiyu Palace to salute and said, "Your Highness, the Empress Dowager, if you have important matters, please move back to the palace immediately."

Bai Yugong said depressedly: "I'm so annoying. I've just come out not long ago. You guys come here. What's the matter? Tell me!"

Yuan Menkun said laughing and crying: "The low-ranking position is low, how could the Queen Mother tell me that His Highness the Princess should go back to the palace quickly."

Bai Yugong said impatiently: "Okay, you guys go first, I'll go back by myself."

"I am ordered by the command..."

"roll!"

"Your Highness the Princess..."

"If you talk nonsense, I will cut you off and get out of here! Go back and tell the Queen Mother that Qin Lang will send me back, so don't worry about my safety."

Yuan Menkun had no choice but to look at Qin Lang and said meaningfully: "Mr. Qin must deliver His Highness the Princess to the Palace safely!"

After hearing Li Yifeng’s report on the recent government affairs, the Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong said lazily: “Why does the Ai family think that the reform of the DPRK is not much progress.”

Li Yifeng said respectfully: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the reform of the court system is not a one-day achievement. It must be considered overall. The plan can be fully promoted. After all, it will affect the whole body by one move, and haste will not be achieved."

Xiao Zirong nodded and said, "Your loyalty, Ai's family can be seen. You don't have to worry about it. Just let it go. Ai's family will fully support you."

"Thank you for your trust in the Queen Mother, I am so frightened."

Xiao Zirong's heart was full of disdain, trust? Just a shield.

Li Yifeng did not forget what He Shanming had entrusted himself. Seeing Xiao Zirong in a good mood, he took the opportunity to say, "I heard that the Empress Dowager intends to select a princess for the eldest princess?"

Xiao Zixuan said: "Men is married when they are old and women are married when they are old. The emperor is about to get married, but the marriage of Yugong is not yet decided. Although the Ai family is not in a hurry to get her out of marriage, they think that it should also be decided for her lifelong affairs. Do you think?"

"The Queen Mother is far-sighted."

Xiao Zirong smiled and said, "Is there any suitable candidate for the Qing family?" He thought to himself, "Does Li Yifeng want to recommend his son Li Yuting, right? He really doesn't avoid relatives when he is a talented person.

Li Yifeng is still self-aware. He knows very well what the materials his son is, and he does not think it is a good thing to marry a royal family.

Xiao Zirong was surprised to hear his recommendation, and said softly: "Mr. He asked you to help me match?"

Li Yifeng hurriedly denied: "No, it's my own intention. He Shanming is not only both civil and military, but also loyal. Looking at the younger generation of Dayong, I have never seen a young man better than him."

Xiao Zirong smiled: "The Qing family admires He Shanming so much, probably because he has benefited him."

"I didn't get any benefits."

Xiao Zixuan said: "He Shanming is not bad, but the eldest princess is used to being arrogant, and the Ai family cannot be her master. No matter how outstanding He Shanming is, she still needs to like her. The Qing family doesn't have to worry about this."

Li Yifeng was stunned. He heard what she said was that he had already rejected the matter, so he didn't dare to continue.

Qin Lang sent Baiyu Palace to Jingwen Gate. Yuan Menkun didn't dare to go far, and followed him all the time. After getting off the car, Baiyu Palace glanced at the group of golden scale guards and complained: "I'm so annoying. If I had known this, I wouldn't have come back."

"Be content, at least you can leave the palace at will, but others don't have the treatment of you." Qin Lang suddenly felt a little strange. The empress dowager was really good at Baiyu Palace, which was very different from what she learned in the past.

Bai Yugong said: "I have been back for so many days and I always want to talk to you well, but every time there are so many people who follow me, and I don't even have the chance to speak alone."

Qin Lang smiled and said, "There will always be a chance. You will be the general of Tiance Mansion in the future. I will be your deputy. I will look up and see you."

After he reminded Bai Yu Palace, he became happy, but after thinking, shouldn't he look down and see him? What a talented man is just like this.

Qin Lang asked her to help hand over a picture album to the little emperor because he went to the palace to teach. The little emperor was waiting to read the next picture album. He had sent the little eunuch to urge him many times and was completely addicted.

Watching Baiyu Palace enter the palace gate, Qin Lang turned around and left with his horse, but saw He Shanming not far away looking at him, and indeed responded to the words he had just said, "I looked up and looked up."

Since fighting on the ice of the Takihe River that day, the two of them have never seen each other again. Qin Lang nodded to He Shanming: "Brother He is fine."

There was no smile on He Shanming's face and said indifferently: "So you also know the eldest princess." He had already regarded Qin Lang as his opponent without realizing it.

"It's not just about knowing her. When she was in trouble, I sent her to Jiuyou Sect, traveling thousands of miles away, working together, facing each other day, and sharing weal and woe." Qin Lang said this on purpose to anger He Shanming.

He Shanming felt so angry that he had rejected his proposal to Princess Xixi and finally married Qin Lang. Now he was determined to be the son-in-law, but he didn't expect that the relationship between Baiyu Palace and Qin Lang was so close. Is Qin Lang the nemesis of his fate? Whenever his life encounters a critical turning point, this guy will interfere.

He Shanming said coldly: "Some words cannot be said randomly. You are a married man, so you must behave properly. If you damage the reputation of the eldest princess, I don't need to remind you of the consequences."

Qin Lang said: "I will definitely be responsible for what I said. Brother He, you must count what you said. Don't forget what you said in Longhe."

Of course, He Shanming remembered that in Longhe he once said that if Qin Lang beats the sword in his hand, he would never cause trouble for Qin Lang again. But it was not Qin Lang who defeated him, but the old witch. Thinking of the strength of the old witch, He Shanming was chilling in his heart. He had never encountered such a powerful opponent and guessed the identity of the other party. Even if Li Qingshui did not appear at the time, He Shanming was not sure to defeat Qin Lang. Qin Lang showed his strength at least as good as him.

Qin Lang did not think about being enemies with He Shanming at the beginning. They could even be called friends for a while, but what happened in Prince Qing's Mansion completely changed their relationship. Qin Lang highly suspected that King Liang was doing it by He Shanming. Although no evidence was found at present, it would be found sooner or later.

He Shanming has regarded Qin Lang as the most powerful opponent of his generation. Ye Yan Chunxue Tower. He originally set up a plan to humiliate Qin Lang, but he did not expect that Qin Lang used the Hongmen Banquet he had set up to complete a counterattack. He Shanming dared to conclude that the fact that many witnesses in the Ministry of Justice were silenced was done by Qin Lang, but he had no evidence.

If so, it is the jade pendant lost by Li Yuting. The jade pendant actually appeared in the Ministry of Justice Prison. Qin Lang's methods were really brilliant, turning passive into initiative, turning the Hongmen Banquet into evidence of his absence.

The two of them looked at each other, and they knew in their hearts that their relationship was no longer the same as before, and there was no need to go back to the past.

He Shanming clasped his fists to Qin Lang and said, "Take care!"

Qin Lang smiled and nodded: "Be careful!"

He Shanming frowned. Why did Qin Lang say these two words? Looking at Qin Lang walking away, his eyes turned to Jingwen Sect. The eldest princess had already walked away. I wonder how Li Yifeng promised him to do what he did?

Because Long Xixi had not returned yet, Qin Lang has lived in Jixiang Lane these days. First, Gu Xie was not a few people to accompany him, and second, there were many things that were temporarily moved from Tiance Mansion. They re-registered the matters, and the affairs were complicated and took a lot of time.

When Qin Lang returned to his residence, it was dark and before he entered the door, he saw a horse tied to the trunk next to the gate, sitting alone with a jar of wine in his hand.

Qin Lang recognized Chen Hu's disciple, but unexpectedly he actually came over and turned over and dismounted and said, "Brother Chen!"

Chen Hutu looked up at Qin Lang, burped and said, "I can't find a place to live, so..."

Qin Lang smiled and said, "Follow me!"

Gu Xiefei and his friends saw Qin Lang bringing a big man with a beard and asked about his origins quietly. Qin Lang didn't explain in detail, so they arranged a room for Chen Hutu to stay.

Wang Houting prepared dinner and asked Qin Lang to invite Chen Hutu to come and have dinner together. Chen Hutu politely declined.

Everyone thought Chen Hutu was a little strange, so they asked Qin Lang to be careful. Qin Lang reassured everyone that although he had been in contact with Chen Hutu for a short time, he felt that Chen Hutu was definitely not a bad person and had no evil thoughts towards him. This person must have had a big change in his life, so he was lonely and lived in isolation.

The next morning, Qin Lang woke up and found someone sweeping the snow outside, but Chen Hu's disciple woke up early and had cleared the road leading to the yard.

Qin Lang went out and stretched his arms and said, "Brother Chen!"

Chen Hutu nodded: "Good morning!"

Qin Lang went to get a broom, and Chen Hutu said, "I'll do it, I can't eat and live for free with you."

At this time, Zhao Changqing also got up. He had to rush to Babu Academy for early reading and reminded Qin Lang that he had to go to Tiance Mansion to put the items in the warehouse today, and only the ones who had finished the work were left. It was probably possible to complete it today. However, Baiyu Palace was posing as a big project, and it was estimated that the messy state of Tiance Mansion would continue.

Chen Hutu said to Qin Lang: "Do you want to help? Anyway, I have nothing to do for the time being."

Qin Lang said: "Then let's go there together."

Qin Lang screamed that Gu Xiefei and Wang Houting were having breakfast nearby. They came to Tiance Mansion while they were full of food. Before anyone came to Tiance Mansion, the wood and stone piles inside were everywhere. Because the White Jade Palace took the place back from the Demon-Suppressing Department, many things that were moved out of the warehouse had to be transported back.

The four of them worked together, and in less than two hours, they had already put all the items in the warehouse. After they finished their work, they still didn't see anyone coming.

Wang Houting was puzzled and said, "Didn't you hear that the Tiance Mansion will continue to be retained yesterday? Why didn't you come suddenly?"

Gu Xiefei said: "I didn't understand. The eldest princess claimed to be the general of Tiance Mansion, but the general must have subordinates, right? Why didn't there be only one person coming? Are there only a few of us left and everyone else left?"

Qin Lang thought to himself that although he saw the appointment of Baiyu Palace yesterday, it did not announce that Baiyu Palace did snatch the Tiance Mansion from the Demon-Suppressing Department, but the snatch was the territory, not all the personnel of Tiance Mansion. Before that, some people followed Ji Hongcai to the Ministry of Works, and some people were directly dismissed. He understood the temperament of Baiyu Palace, was too willful in everything he did, and was like a child playing house. When he woke up, he forgot about what happened here.

It started to snow again while talking. Gu Xiefei went inside and got angry with the brazier and invited a few people to go in for warmth. Chen Hutu did not follow him and stood alone in the yard, holding his arms and staring blankly at the sky.

Gu Xiefei and Wang Houting looked at each other and felt that this person was even more strange.

Qin Lang came to Chen Hutu and smiled and said, "Do you remember the Northern Wilderness?"

A hint of sentiment appeared in Chen Hutu's eyes: "If you stay in one place for a long time, you will always have feelings."

Qin Lang said: "I also want to go to the Northern Wilderness if I have the chance."

"You won't like it. The north wind is howling, the snow is falling, the ice is frozen all year round, and there are few people."

Xie Liuyun arrived at this time. This time, he came here to send a wedding invitation to Qin Lang under the order of Chen Qiongnian. In the next three days, Chen Weiyu's wedding day. As the emperor Qin Lang, he was qualified to go to the palace to watch the ceremony, but for some reason, the royal family did not send him an invitation.

Qin Lang didn't expect Chen Qiongnian to send him a post. This shows that Chen Qiongnian still attaches great importance to him. Perhaps because Chen Qiongnian knew the ambiguous relationship between him and Chen Weiyu, he wanted to send him off for another trip to his daughter.

Compared to Qin Lang's surprise, Xie Liuyun's surprise was even more serious. Xie Liuyun's surprise arose because of Chen Hupu. He looked at Chen Hupu and said in a daze: "Big... Young Master..." It turned out that Chen Hupu was actually the son of Chen Qiunian, the Minister of Justice, and the brother of Chen Weiyu.

Chen Hutu nodded to Xie Liuyun, without saying a word, stepped out and came to the sword-shaving stone, silently sharpening the sword against the flying snow.

Qin Lang then realized that Chen Hutu was the identity of the Tu, and realized that Chen Hutu had come to him yesterday for no reason. What he said was to attend the wedding of his relatives was actually to attend the wedding of his sister Chen Weiyu. No wonder he came from thousands of miles to cross mountains and rivers from the Northern Wilderness.

Xie Liuyun looked at Chen Hutu from afar, and did not dare to go over and disturb him. He asked in a low voice: "Young Master Qin, are you and the eldest master old acquaintances?"

Qin Lang said the truth: "I just met."

Xie Liuyun said, "If sir, I don't know how happy he is." He hurriedly said goodbye to Qin Lang and went back to report the message.

Gu Xiefei and others heard that Chen Hutu was Chen Qiunian's son, and they all felt strange. Chen Hutu had a family but chose to live under someone else's roof. I really don't know what this kid was thinking. Qin Lang judged that Chen Hutu should be incompatible with his family. Since he could come back to attend his sister's wedding, it proved that there was no problem between him and Chen Weiyu. It should be the father-son conflict between him and Chen Qiunian. Qin Lang became more and more curious. What kind of conflict could make him go to the Northern Wilderness for five years and still not eliminate the gap between them in five years?

The snow had already fallen on Chen Hutu's shoulders. He didn't realize it, and he was still focused on polishing the sword in his hand. The blood on the sword not only did not fade, but became clearer and clearer as the continuous grinding.

The sword body reflected his deep and sad eyes. Chen Hutu looked at these eyes and felt a little strange. He was not like this back then. He may have witnessed too much killing and blood. Those scenes and experiences have long been deeply immersed in the depths of his eyes. His eyes, his heart, and his people have long been marked with blood. Just like the blood on the sword, no matter how they are grinded, they cannot be erased.

Chen Hutu polished his sword and stood up and left Tiance Mansion. Qin Lang did not ask. Everyone had their own secrets. Chen Hutu knew what he should do. The current departure might be just to escape from people he didn't want to see.

Shortly after Chen Hutu left, a carriage came to the gate of Tiance Mansion. The carriage was coming out of Mrs. Chen and Chen Weiyu. When Mrs. Chen heard that her son was back, she urged Chen Qiunian to take her son home with her. Chen Qiunian refused without thinking, so Chen Weiyu accompanied her mother to come.
