As people came and went, the man in green clothes and wide sleeves looked like a grand scene in spring, making the night light gentler.

He Yan never expected that he would meet Chu Zhao here.

His face was gentle and his expression was as gentle as ever. Compared to many years ago, he became thinner and thinner, but there seemed to be something missing between his eyebrows and eyes, like beads with glory, silent and peaceful.

He Yan walked two steps toward him, and then stood still, asking, "Second Master Chu... Why is he here?"

After the crown prince was punished, the fourth prince ascended the throne. Later, he never heard of Chu Zhao again. He heard that someone had seen him outside the city and speculated that he had left Shuojing. After Emperor Zhaokang ascended the throne, he deliberately cleaned up Xu Jingfu's old subordinates and the Chu family, so naturally he was suppressing the family. In recent years, the Chu family has almost declined. Chu Linfeng even dismissed his nineteen-room concubine and lived with Mrs. Chu's parents' family. As for Chu Zhao, everyone gradually forgot him.

After all, Xu Xiang, that seems to be a name that was a long time ago.

The handsome and brave teenagers in the capital emerged year by year. In the dream of the female girl in the Great Wei Dynasty, the two brothers of the Xiao family had already married and had children. This fourth young master of Chu, who was like a gloomy orchid, was like a beautiful dream in the wild valley. After a flash in the pan, he disappeared into the river of time.

However, he appeared again at this moment, making He Yan look like he returned to Jiyang many years ago for a moment.

Chu Zhao smiled and said, "I have been in Jiyang."

He Yan was silent.

If it was in Jiyang, it would be understandable that the people in the world could not find his whereabouts. But perhaps, the emperor was not really unable to find him, but it would be better if he was here.

He Yan couldn't tell what he felt about Chu Zhao. Although he was a student of Xu Jingfu, he had never really hurt himself back then. It was just a different position. He Yan knew that Chu Zhao was a person who was quite scheming and not as harmless as he seemed on the surface. However, many years have passed, and love and hatred have gradually faded. When they meet again here, they are not friends or enemies, but just... an old friend.

She noticed that there was no beautiful and charming maid beside Chu Zhao. She had already realized a little bit, and then paused before asking, "Sir Fourth Master Chu, what are you doing in Jiyang now?"

"I'm here, I open a calligraphy and painting museum, and I still make a living." Chu Zhao replied with a smile, "Where is Ahe? Why did he suddenly come to Jiyang?"

"His Royal Highness is getting married, and I will come to watch the ceremony with my family." He Yan did not hide it. Mu Xiaolou's marriage was a major event in Jiyang City, and everyone in Jiyang knew about it.

"Is Governor Xiao here too?" he asked.

He Yan nodded.

Chu Zhao looked at He Yan with a smile. The woman in front of him still looked cheerful. Later, he had seen many people, many women, but such a open and vigorous expression only appeared on her face. His eyes fell on the candy tiger in He Yan's hand, and he was stunned and asked softly, "Ahe... do you have a child?"

"Yes," He Yan said, "I have a daughter, who is almost four years old now, and is named Xiao Yao."

“…Xiao Yao?”

"Does my name sound very nice?" He Yan said proudly, "I have no requirements for her. As long as she is safe and healthy, and free and easy for a lifetime, she will be satisfied."

She really has no talent in poetry and songs, and only the name "Xiao Yao" is chosen by everyone.

"The land is full of white clouds, and I am free and easy," Chu Zhao looked at her and smiled, "Ahe is very good at naming."

"Thank you." He Yan asked with a smile, "Second Master Chu, do you have a sweetheart now?"

When Chu Zhao tricked her out at night, he confessed so much that Xiao Jue was furious in the end. She coaxed her for a long time. Now that time has changed, many things have been relieved. Although he is the "Fourth Young Master Chu", he should be just "Chu Zhao" now.

The Fourth Young Master Chu would confess his true feelings to her because of his interests and position. Who would the real Chu Zhao be? He is so smart and talented, no matter what, he will never lack people to like.

When Chu Zhao heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and smiled, "Not everyone is as lucky as Governor Xiao."

He Yan was about to speak when suddenly someone's voice came.

“What are you doing here?”

When she looked back, she saw Xiao Jue walking from the night, her face slightly cold and her eyes were like a knife.

"Governor Xiao," Chu Zhao was also surprised, and then smiled and said, "Long time no see."

The fourth aunt in front of the powder stall was so scared that she was trembling. He Yan went to buy the candy man just now. After the purchase, he met a handsome young man. The two of them stood on one side and talked. It was nothing, but the fourth aunt looked at it and saw something was wrong. The second grandma Xiao looked open, but the handsome young man's eyes seemed to have feelings for the second grandma Xiao.

But it is not that kind of obsessive feeling. How can I say it is the feeling of loneliness that I have loved deeply and abandoned.

After being together with the second aunt for a long time, I thought I had developed some good eyesight. I just regretted that there was no plate of melon seeds at the moment, otherwise she would have been able to sit here and kowtow for a few hours. The handsome young man who was frustrated in love was probably a pity. Just as the fourth aunt was thinking about what kind of entanglements the two of them had in the past, and how did the second grandma Xiao defeat this young talent, suddenly felt that there was a shadow around her. When she looked up, she almost shuddered her soul.

Governor Xiao doesn’t know when it will arrive!

He stood beside him, staring at the two people in the distance calmly, his eyes narrowed slightly.

The fourth aunt swore that she saw Governor Xiao’s fingers pressing on the sword around her waist were slightly white.

Many of the jealous men in Jiyang City would fight for their beloved girls, which was nothing, but... Looking at the weak young man in green, I was afraid that he would be beaten to death by Governor Xiao. And the second grandma Xiao... I heard that people in the Central Plains value women especially, and I don’t know if they can afford to be blamed for the crime of affair.

The fourth aunt wanted to remind her, but she was afraid of the pressure from the person beside her, so she finally retreated two steps. But seeing that the second grandma Xiao had said in front of her, the young master in Qing's expression became even more disappointed.

Immediately afterwards, Governor Xiao walked up-

The moment He Yan saw Xiao Jue appear, he said in his heart that terrible. For some reason, this person always appears in such a situation, and he was very coincidental to Chu Zhao back then. After many years, looking at his current face, I am afraid he would not be too generous.

"I bought candy here, and happened to meet Mr. Chu, so I said a few words." He Yan explained tactfully, "I came after saying a few words."

Xiao Jue only glanced at Chu Zhao, his eyes fell on He Yan, and said, "Let's go."

Two words, each word is chilly.

He Yan said goodbye to Chu Zhao, "Then, the Fourth Master Chu, let's take the lead."

Chu Zhao nodded with a smile and watched He Yan and the others go away. He only withdrew his gaze until he could no longer see the figures of the two people in the crowd.

The water in Jiyang is still clear and clear. He thought that after so many years, he had already felt calm about his old friend, but the moment he saw her, he realized that he had never let go.

However, that's all.

The peddler who sells sugar is crowded with lively people. The young man in Qing walked in and lowered his eyes and said softly, "Brother, I want a flower basket."

...

Xiao Jue walked very quickly.

He Yan followed him, one head and two big ones, shouting, "Wait, Xiao Jue, the fourth concubine is still behind..."

"She's gone back."

He Yan "?"

The fourth aunt was so unfaithful that she threw a firecracker in front of her. She had to do this to coax people by herself.

He Yan took three or two steps to catch up with Xiao Jue, regardless of whether he was happy or not. He looked like he held his arm, "Xiao Jue..."

"Why, I won't continue to reminisce about the past with Mr. Chu, who doesn't follow me?" He said with mocking.

"If you don't reminisce about the past, you just say hello." He Yan thought to himself that Xiao Jue and Chu Zhao were afraid that they had a bad relationship in his previous life, so they were particularly excited when they met Chu Zhao. There are generally three defenses in life, fire, theft, and Chu Zhao.

"No matter how capable I am, I can't predict the future." He Yan looked at him, "I didn't expect him to be in Jiyang City now. He said, "Does the Emperor know about this?"

Xiao Jue sneered, "I've known it a long time ago."

Although he had already guessed something, He Yan was still a little sighing when Xiao Jue said it. Since Chu Zhao had entered Jiyang City, he thought he would never go out again in the future. His second half of his life was like being imprisoned here, but... it may not be a good ending for him.

When she saw her face, Xiao Jue sneered, "I have many worries about him."

It came again, He Yan had no choice but to say, "Brother, it's been so many years, why are you still worried? I'm always thinking about it, look," she took the opportunity to put the candy tiger in her hand to his mouth, "I'm a sugar man who bought it for a lot of money. I give it to it, it's a plea—"

Xiao Jue brushed her hand away, and laughed at the lying of her face without changing her face, saying, "Do you even refuse to lie now?"

"Who lied to me? Do you want me to stand on the roof and shout, I, He Yan, I like Governor Xiao the most, we have seen the picture together--"

"He Yan——"

He Yan smiled and said, "I know everything in my heart..."

Xiao Jue looked at her for a while and finally got defeated. Forget it, she always had ten thousand ways to find another way to coax people, although sometimes she was not very sincere in coaxing.

He warned, "Forget it this time, He Yan, if he meets him privately..."

He Yan thought, as if she would come to Jiyang often. After this time, I don’t know when it will be when I come here next time.

"However," Xiao Jue glanced at the candy man in her hand, "I don't accept this apology."

"How do you want to apologize?"

He raised his eyebrows, said nothing, staring at her.

He Yan "..."

She gritted her teeth and said, "Xiao Jue, she is greedy for my beauty and covet my body!"

Xiao Jue said "yes" and replied that he was doing good deeds, "Not bad."

He Yan had nothing to say.

...

This night was another confused night.

The next morning, Xiao Yao woke up, and the sugar tiger had already turned into a pile of sugar water at night. He Yan took the bare bamboo stick and said seriously in front of Xiao Yao, "Did you see it? This is a tiger?"

Xiao Yao looked at her with a confused look on his face.

Xiao Jue walked in from outside and saw that she was teasing Xiao Yao again. After a moment of speechlessness, he came over and picked up Xiao Yao and said, "It's time to eat."

The Cui family's breakfast was as rich as ever. After breakfast, Cui Yuezhi had to go to the palace to help. The customs of Jiyang City were different from those of the Central Plains, and the ceremony of the wedding was at night.

While taking care of the young man, Xiao Jue did not forget to push the vegetables He Yan loved to him. The fourth aunt who passed by was stunned for a moment when she saw this. After using the meal, she secretly pulled He Yan aside. After he hesitated for a while, she asked in a low voice, "Can you teach me a little bit of the skills of controlling your husband?"

He Yan almost suspected that he had heard it wrong, and she asked, "What technique do you mean?"

"The art of controlling husband!" The fourth aunt said embarrassedly, "I didn't want to leave first last night. It was because Governor Xiao had already arrived. It was not easy for me to disturb you. It was definitely not because I was unfaithful and deliberately left you alone! However... Governor Xiao was really unhappy at that time. I looked at it early this morning and looked the same as before. I just wanted to ask, how did you do it?"

How did she do it? She has to ask her waist.
To be continued...
