003 Variables

is a man with a warm voice. Yunqing quickly took two steps back before looking up, but he saw that this man was tall and bright. The lines on his face are clear and bright, but every turning point is curved and soft, so even if his eyes are calm, they do not look cold or fierce.

What's more, at this moment, the corners of his mouth are smiling, and his facial features are as warm as jade in the hazy night, such a handsome man.

Yunqing didn't dare to look much and apologized in a low voice. After hearing the apology, the man did not say anything. Instead, he looked down at her carefully and suddenly leaned on the stone railing and said lazily, "You are so beautiful, but it's a pity that you are still small."

Yunqing knew that he could not be provoked with such dress and appearance, so he ignored it and just bypassed him without hearing it. But as soon as the man raised his hand, the folding fan in his hand lay in front of Yunqing. The unopened folding fan could only see the fan bone of ebony and gold, and smelled the fragrance of elegant wood.

"What's your name?"

Yunqing had to look up at him. Previously, he was obviously calm and thought he was a stable and elegant man, but he didn't expect that he was just a prodigal son with a lazy smile and a frivolous look. Yunqing stepped back a little and said, "The prince is self-respecting."

The man raised his eyebrows and smiled. The soft light in his eyes suddenly gathered, and the smile on his face became more and more elegant. It seemed that there was a soluble moonlight dyed layer along the eyebrows at the corners of his eyes. He said, "Do you want me to... be self-respecting? How interesting. Don't you know who I am?"

Yunqing looked at the man again and seemed to be a little familiar, but she had just disturbed Pei Ziyao's mind and couldn't calmly think about who the apprentice was.

"It looks clever. Why is my memory so bad?"

The man took away the folding fan, lowered his head and played with it. He smiled and said, "I guess you are 15 years old and your surname is Yun."

Yunqing paused and frowned. However, he thought that he was the only female apprentice of the famous Second Master Pei and the little owner of the famous Lanyuan. Although he never publicized, it was not impossible for someone to recognize him. At this time, he decided not to look back at the man's elegant ridicule, so he went straight away, but heard the man sigh softly: "How fast..."

This is Yunqing's first day of July, full of accidents and awkwardness. Su Ji, Pei Ziyao, and even a stranger can make her heart jump uneasy. If there is any good news, it is that Su Ji was not eliminated in the first round, but narrowly entered the second round as the fifth of the craft. For this news, the guys who came to Su Ji not long ago were very excited. They not only doubled their work, but also obviously straightened their backs. On the contrary, Mrs. Su Er, the shopkeeper Zhao, the painter Yun Qing, who had always been respected, and several old men looked indifferent when they heard the good news, as if they had nothing to do with it.

Now that the first round has passed, it is time for Yunqing to show his skills.

Yunqing has never participated in the Qixi Fighting Lantern in Wuhua City before. Although he has been thinking about it for a long time, it is enough to prevent himself from being afraid of the stage, but in the face of his predecessors, he is always mixed with looking up and humility, and never dares to be proud. Her master, Second Master Pei, is the first person with profound knowledge of literature and martial arts in Wuhua City, but the master often said that there is a sky outside the sky, there are people outside the world, and there is no end to learning, and Yunqing keeps it in mind.

She has been thinking about lanterns all day, and the night on the second day of July also quickly pulled up. Yunqing thought about the lantern and used little for dinner. Soon after, she made another bowl of porridge and sent it to her room.

"Du Heng and Du Zhong's news," Zhi pointed to the porridge, "Let's talk about it in detail after drinking."

Yunqing frowned and immediately swallowed the porridge. However, important things happen when the reeds are so clean and neat, and Yunqing knows that he can't hesitate. Sure enough, after drinking porridge, he did not collect the bowl. Instead, he looked at Yunqing for a moment and bowed his head and said, "Du Heng and Du Zhong should have come back yesterday morning, but now he has returned two days and one night late. I can't get in touch with them. In addition, Zheng Zhongfei also disappeared.

Yunqing suddenly looked cold.

Du Heng and Du Zhong are the most effective guards around her. The two of them have the withered Zheng Zhongfei, and no one thinks that there should be any accident. Now the three have disappeared together.

Yunqing took a deep breath and immediately said, "If others ask about Du Heng and Du Zhong, they will say that I sent them to do something. Then secretly check their whereabouts. He sent someone to stare at Zheng Zhongfei's home and Su Ji Lantern Square. Once he appeared, he first made sure whether there was anyone else to take care of him secretly. Don't scare the snake and bring it back directly. Recently, you guys have been speaking more rigorously. If someone mentions Zheng Zhongfei, they will only say that they have never heard of this name.

"Yes!" After answering, he asked, "Why does the young lady suspect that someone is secretly stirring up the situation?"

Yunqing quickly went through the details of the first conversation with Zheng Zhongfei, and then said affirmatively, "Before we appeared, Zheng Zhongfei had not contacted anyone who knew about this matter. On the one, what Zheng Zhongfei knows is not all the truth, and on the other, he has been depressed for too long about the secrets he knows. What I'm afraid of is not Zheng Zhongfei's reversal, but that someone secretly monitors Zheng Zhongfei to find out who is still concerned about this matter. If it is the latter, we should be careful."

He nodded and said, "I know, I will pay more attention to Zheng Zhongfei. If contact with Zheng Zhongfei means that it is related to the old affairs of the Xia family, then if it is not us, it will only be the enemy.

Yunqing's back was thin and sweaty. She just remembered that someone secretly monitored Zheng Zhongfei, but what she said was that if she was not a friend, she would be an enemy. However, Zheng Zhongfei has been hiding for more than ten years, so if there is really surveillance, how many years has it been monitored?

"It seems to have suddenly become critical," he asked for a long time. "So what about your decision, Miss?"

Decision? Yunqing was stunned and looked at the calm look. For a long time, she shook her head and smiled and said, "Those things..." She didn't know how to say it.

"If Master Pei can help, then..." He didn't say anything, but Yunqing already understood what she meant.

She looked at the different rows of stone lotus flowers on the window sill, and the stone lotus flowers under the light showed a hazy and elegant beauty. After a long time, Xu Yunqing slowly said, "He has nothing to do with this matter. He was an outsider, so why harm him?

The reed didn't say anything anymore, but whispered when he finally closed the bowl and went out, "Miss, make a decision early. If Zheng Zhongfei's matter is really as you expected, we may not have much time.

Yunqing looked at the stone lotus and said, "I understand."

On the afternoon of July 3, Yunqing was carefully looking through a lantern album. Hearing the door ring, he got up and opened the door. Sun Cheng was actually a blue face.

"Sister Yun, Mr. Su, please come down."

"Is Master Su here?" Yunqing came to Su Ji for three years and saw Master Su's number of times coming with one hand, so he couldn't help frowning when he heard the words.

"Yes, now I know it's coming!" Sun Cheng sneered, "I'm still dragging my family here!" Is Su Ji the place of the temple at the entrance of the street and alley?

Yunqing faintly heard the sound downstairs, which was indeed more messy than usual. Anyway, she was not in a hurry. She turned around and poured a cup of tea and handed it over. She closed the door and said, "You are so angry that others have lost their homes. Your master, shopkeeper Zhao, is a capable person. What are you worried about if you follow him?

"I don't worry about myself," Sun Cheng suddenly took a sip of tea and gritted his teeth and said, "I just hate that Sun Cheng has no money. If I have it, I will buy Su Ji as a whole son and let my master be the shopkeeper. Let the second wife make some accounts, and it won't be remembered by Su!" In so many years, Su Ji has been the same as my family. Now I want to watch Master Su destroy Su Ji. Sister Yun, I feel sad!"

In the end, Sun Cheng's eyes were a little red. Yunqing took the cup and refilled the tea for him. When he calmed down, he asked, "Who is downstairs?"

Sun Cheng said, "Master Su, Master Su, Mrs. Su, the second wife, the third aunt, and my master."

"Who asked me to go first?"

"Master Su said that the second round of bucket lanterns on the third day of July is very important to meet the painter."

Yunqing laughed dumbly.

"Sister Yun, what are you laughing at?"

Yunqing took the teacup and smiled and said, "Think about it, how disappointed Master Su should be when he comes here to know that the painter in his lantern workshop is just a 15-year-old little girl."

Sun Cheng was a little stunned, and then scratched his head and giggled, "Sister Yun, you have always tried your best in Su Ji. Why are you angry when you see others messing Su Ji so much now?"

Yunqing couldn't help laughing and walked out with Sun Cheng and said, "Didn't I tell you that others' failure is their own home. What's the popularity of our outsiders? Besides, what can you do about your anger? If you can't change it, look forward and live a long life.

Going down the stairs, Sun Cheng turned his head and looked at her and sighed, "Sister Yun can see more than me."

It's not open, but at the beginning, I didn't care as much as others. It's not that she has a cold temperament, but although her ancestral home is Huacheng, she did not return to her hometown to remember her hometown. She has something hidden in her heart, and it is inevitable to leave two points of indifference and calmness. Not to mention that she has made up her mind to leave Su Ji now.

Yunqing saw a teenager among several people at a glance. He was the young master of the Su family. He was 17 years old. He was tall and thin. The green bats and thick clothes were loosely covered on his body. He looked like frosted grass after autumn. He looked extremely bad, and his eyes were also full of chaos and impatience. Yunqing looked at it and thought of Pei Ziyao. Pei Ziyao was completely opposite to the young master Su when he was 17 years old. He was handsome and upright. At the age of sixteen or seventeen, he was even more energetic like a small green bamboo. Everyone wanted to praise, so that Pei Ziyao, a hypocritical and humble person, could show off in front of her for many years.

But since that night, Pei Ziyao has ignored her. For a whole day and a half, he really completely ignored her, a stingy guy. Yunqing remembered another reason why he could not cry for Su Ji, that is, compared with Pei Ziyao, the latter was obviously more far-reaching than Pei Ziyao.

It's hard to pay attention to it.
