"I just want to remind you not to forget the serious things tonight."
Faced with Bai Moyue's impatience, Yang Xiang didn't say much. He just left these words and walked away.
Bai Moyue stared at his back with a stiff expression, her clenched fists slowly relaxed and then clenched again.
Today is the anniversary of Ji Chen's death. How could she not remember it? Why should he mention it?!
Xi Honglei, who had just arrived in a strange country and had nothing to do, leisurely walked around the streets with Mo Yuling. When the two of them were going out, they saw Bai Moyue leaving with a somewhat uncomfortable look on her face.
After the two of them looked at each other, they could only sigh helplessly.
"What happened to Mo Yue and Brother Yang recently?" Mo Yuling asked Xi Honglei beside her in confusion after Bai Moyue walked away. She had always been curious about the relationship between the two people. Because
After so many years, it stands to reason that they should be together long ago. But every time Mo Yuling feels that they are about to get married, the relationship between the two will become stiffer than strangers. Recently, it seems that it has arrived.
their stiffening stage.
"You have known them both longer than me, so why are you asking me?" Xi Honglei shook his head with a confused look on his face, not intending to let Mo Yuling know about the grudges between Bai Moyue and Yang Xiang. "Look at Mo.
With Yue's appearance, she always feels that this matter has something to do with Yang Xiang. Now there is no one else but Yang Xiang who can make her emotions fluctuate so much. She thought that the relationship between the two would get better after they came out, but she didn't expect it.
…”
They can do nothing but worry. Bai Moyue is older than them, and even if they don't say it, she knows it better than them all.
Emotional matters are like drinking water, knowing whether it is warm or cold. Whether a person is good or not, and whether it is worth stopping and staying by his side is not decided by others. Xi Honglei understands this very well. She thought, Bai Mo
The same goes for the moon.
Xi Honglei walked around the city with Mo Yuling, went to the pharmacy to buy some medicinal materials, and then returned to her residence. She got into the room and watched Mu Yunmeng stare at the map of Yunchuan Kingdom with a thoughtful look on his face.
Stopping, Xi Honglei waved her hand in front of him and asked curiously: "What are you thinking about?"
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about what to do." Mu Yunmeng threw down the map and sat Xi Honglei on his lap. "Why are you back so soon?"
"I'm not familiar with this place. I bought some things with her and came back." Xi Honglei was talking to Mu Yunmeng, and suddenly remembered Bai Moyue's appearance when she went out, so she asked Mu Yunmeng.
After hearing Xi Honglei's words, Mu Yunmeng's eyes dimmed a little. "Well, she has something to do today and will probably come back very late."
It was getting late, and just like what Mu Yunmeng said, Xi Honglei never saw Bai Moyue back. And Yang Xiang didn't know where he had gone.
Xi Honglei followed Mu Yunmeng after finishing dinner, and then went out with Yi Tianji, planning to go around a military camp not far outside the city. After finishing their work, it was almost midnight.
In every town, there are places where men can have a great time and have fun. And the same is true here.
On the way back to their residence, the three of them had to pass through a busy street. A very busy street at night.
The charming sounds of "young master" and "uncle" came into Xi Honglei's ears, making her unable to stop the little restlessness in her heart. She looked around like a rural person entering the city.
Mu Yunmeng noticed that the people around her were restless, and after sighing helplessly, he guessed a bit of what she was thinking.
"Lanzhifang's business is not enough for you to earn?" Mu Yunmeng looked at Xi Honglei intently, ignoring the eyes cast on him one by one, and asked softly.
"You don't understand this." Xi Honglei shook her head meaningfully, but did not dare to tell Mu Yunmeng what she was really thinking. What is there to see in these groups of girls? If you really want to see it, go directly to the palace.
It's obvious when you go to Fu Yufeng's place. The people in Fu Yufeng's place are all hundreds and thousands of times better than the ones here. Although the brothel has a lot of profits, its relationship with the government must be well established. Xi Honglei doesn't want to be in trouble.
She was not free enough to open a brothel in the name of Prince Qi. It was just that when she saw these prosperous brothels, she couldn't help but think of the "Duck Shop"...
Mu Yunmeng focused all his attention on Xi Honglei, and Xi Honglei was only thinking about what was on his mind, so neither of them paid attention to anything else. Until Yi Tianji made a sound, attracting their attention.
Other places.
"Is that Brother Yang?" Yi Tianji smiled maliciously and pointed to the second floor of a tavern on the street, an obvious location by the window.
Mu Yunmeng and Xi Honglei looked where he pointed and saw Yang Xiang's figure.
"I'm talking about fortune teller, your eyes are really good. You can see it from such a high place." Xi Honglei said jokingly to Yi Tianji, although Bai Moyue and Mo Yuling often looked at each other directly.
She called him a liar, or to put it nicely, a bastard, but Xi Honglei thought she had a good heart, so she gave him a nicer nickname. As expected, Yi Tianji was immediately happy when she called him that.
with a cheerful smile.
"Forget it, I didn't see it." Yi Tianji raised his chin proudly and said. Then he looked up at Yang Xiang and asked Mu Yunmeng worriedly, "Is he okay?"
The conversation between a few people standing downstairs was naturally overheard by Yang Xiang. Yang Xiang turned his head and looked at the three people downstairs. After hearing Mu Yunmeng ask him, "Do I need to accompany you?"
He shook his head and motioned for a few people to go back.
Mu Yunmeng knew that Yang Xiang was in a bad mood, so he didn't say much, and went back first with Xi Honglei and Yi Tianji. Yang Xiang sat alone in the commotion, enjoying the peace of being alone. When the crowd gradually dissipated
, the time was getting later and later, so he slowly stood up and walked back with a headache. By coincidence, when he returned to his residence, he saw someone he didn't want to see.
Bai Moyue's reddish eyes silently told Yang Xiang that she had secretly cried alone. Sharp pain flashed through her heart, and Yang Xiang smiled to himself.
Her happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy are all because of that person. Even if she cries, it will never be because of herself. What is the purpose of his persistence for so many years? Is it to atone for his past sins? Or is it because of this that he will never
A woman who wants to take a good look at herself?
The corners of Yang Xiang's raised lips fell quickly, and the smile disappeared fleetingly on his face. But in Bai Moyue's eyes, it was more like a satire on her.
Smelling the scent of women and alcohol on Yang Xiang's body, Bai Moyue lowered her eyes, passed by Yang Xiang, and strode away.
The two of them went back to their respective rooms and never met again. It was not until the three days given to them by Mu Yunmeng ended and they got up and headed to the capital that the two finally had the opportunity to see each other face to face.
The way Yang Xiang and Bai Moyue got along made the other people on the side feel that the atmosphere was inexplicably depressing. Except for Mu Yunmeng, a person who didn't talk much on weekdays, Xi Honglei and Mo Yuling also
You Shukuang and Yi Tianji, every time they saw the heavy expressions on their faces, they would swallow the words they wanted to say back into their stomachs, and then sigh secretly.
The so-called cold war should be like this, right? Xi Honglei tried hard to recall how he and Mu Yunmeng came together before. They seemed to have been cold, and who bowed his head first in the end...?
The journey to the capital was not very short, and besides, they had to collect intelligence along the way, so stopping and stopping was a matter of course. At dusk, they finally found a place to stay and eat something.
Mo Yuling and Yi Tianji went out to collect information. Xi Honglei followed Shukuang and followed Mu Yunmeng's instructions, preparing to sneak into the local county government office after dark. When everyone was almost gone, Mu Yunmeng arrived.
Arrive at Yang Xiang's room.
"What do you want me to do?" Yang Xiang thought Mu Yunmeng came here to give him a task. He stood up from the chair and asked in a low voice. Unexpectedly, Mu Yunmeng pressed his shoulders and sat down again.
Go down.
"You don't need to do anything." Mu Yunmeng sat down next to Yang Xiang, "I have already left your matter to Lei'er."
Yang Xiang met Mu Yunmeng's calm gaze and knew the purpose of his coming here. Shaking his head slightly, Yang Xiang said to Mu Yunmeng, "I'm fine, don't worry."
"We all see whether something is wrong with you. I didn't want to get involved in the matter between you and Mo Yue, but so many years have passed, and you are still like this. Now even if I don't say anything, I'm afraid someone will stop me.
I can’t stand it any longer.”
These two people were fine, but Xi Honglei and the others were very anxious. Mu Yunmeng had not been able to touch Xi Honglei for many days, and the reason was simply because of Yang Xiang and Bai Moyue. According to Xi Honglei's words
In other words, he failed to manage his subordinates well, so he had to at least take some responsibility for the affairs of these two people. Therefore, Mu Yunmeng, who was usually most afraid of trouble, came here just to give him something at night.
With Xi Honglei's explanation, she was able to sleep comfortably holding the beauty in her arms.
"Yunmeng, you know this well, what else do you think I can do?" Yang Xiang shrugged his shoulders as if it didn't matter anymore, and looked uncomfortably in the direction of the window. "How many years? I've been
I almost lost track of it. At first I just thought that this was a mistake I made, so I had to bear it. But I never thought that it would be so difficult to bear this mistake."
As Yang Xiang spoke, a bitter smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth. His vision gradually became unfocused, appearing ethereal and insubstantial. Yang Xiang turned his head and kept looking at the sky outside the window. "Until now, I don't know what to do with her.
What should I do? Maybe no matter what I do, she won’t change."
