At the same time, Wu Suosi was actually panicked. When he first heard the romantic rumors about the relationship between the prince and the master of Yunmen, he still thought it was just a misunderstanding like Ling Xing'er did last time, and he thought that he would send someone out to explain it and it would break up. Knowing that this time even the secret guard of the palace said that he saw the prince feeding soup to the master of Yunmen in Tongfulou with his own eyes, that affectionate look, that look... whoever sees knows.

Jiang Lingfei patted him on the shoulder, without saying anything.

Ji Yanran pushed the door open and carried the two of them out of the courtyard: "What's the matter?"

"No, my lord." Wu Suosi glanced in cautiously, and asked in a low voice, "Well, Master Yunmen... you, now there are rumors... Tongfulou, is it true or not?"

Ji Yanran said concisely: "Really."

Wu Suosi didn't have the slightest precaution, and felt a little dizzy.

It's really true, but there is another question, he continued to use the tone of conversation: "But why are the disciples of Fengyumen going outside to refute rumors?"

Ji Yanran became interested: "Oh? What about Fengyumen."

"It is said that the master of Yunmen has no close relationship with the prince, and this trip to the king's city is just to collect money for errands, at most they can be regarded as ordinary friends."

Jiang Lingfei said quietly beside him: "Don't say you have a crush on him."

Before he finished speaking, a slap of palm came to his face, so he hurriedly avoided the compliment: "It's so pure and touching."

"In short, you two, no one is allowed to tell this matter, including my mother." Ji Yanran warned, "Also, ask the people in the palace to help Fengyumen, so as not to make the city full of storms."

Wu Suosi asked: "Even the concubine has to hide it?"

"What do you know?" Jiang Lingfei hugged him by the shoulders, forced him to walk back, and taught him patiently, "For this kind of thing, the prince and the master of Yunmen have to prepare, and then go and tell the godmother in person, why are you and I joining in the fun? , let's go, don't disturb the young couple's intimacy."

A breeze passed through the garden, bringing the last sentence in a few scattered words.

Ji Yanran coughed twice in a cover-up manner, and when she turned around, Yun Yifeng happened to be out of the courtyard as well: "Hey, Lao Wu and Jiang Shaoxia have already left?"

"Ask a few irrelevant things." Ji Yanran said, "The weather is so good, do you really not want to go out?"

"I still have something to do with Qingyue." Yun Yifeng said again, "When the lord is watching Yuan's mansion, if he encounters troubles or encounters ghosts making trouble, just come to Fengyumen."

Ji Yanran nodded: "Okay."

Even if it was only a short distance away, he insisted on sending the other party to Qingyue's residence before turning around and leaving.

Ling Xing'er was pouring water to drink in the house. She ran outside for a long time, and her voice was hoarse and smoky when she refuted the rumors. The same is true for the booksellers in the royal city. It hasn’t been a few hours since the rumors spread. The story of the scholar has been changed first. I don’t know where the ready-made script changed the name. The prince who cut wood hid his clothes—listen, is this plausible

"There's something even worse!" She complained softly, "It took me a long time to burn those junk."

Yun Yifeng supported his head with one hand, his ears were buzzing, and he felt dizzy.

"Master, please drink tea." Qingyue held the teacup to him with both hands.

"Let's go find a house outside." Yun Yifeng said, "Think of another reason, it doesn't matter if something happened to Fengyumen or Jianghu, in short, we can move out of the palace."

Ling Xing'er was stunned: "The door is mainly moving out? Is it because of those rumors? In fact, they have already dispersed."

And there is a saying, if you want to cover it up, wouldn't it be even more wrong to move out

"It has nothing to do with the rumors." Yun Yifeng said, "Since the ghost stabbing is in the king's city, he will not let me go easily. It is inconvenient to live in the king's mansion. Don't really cause trouble, but it will disturb the old concubine and the prince."

Hearing what he said, the two looked at each other in blank dismay. After a long silence, Qingyue replied in a low voice: "Yes."

Houses are easy to find, they are everywhere in Wangcheng, but the reason is hard to find.

The palace is very good, everything is good. The house is spacious, the bedding is fluffy and soft every day, and there are new tricks in the kitchen. The old concubine is even more kind. She has been thinking about choosing good materials from the palace and making some light summer clothes for him. Regardless of the fact that the closet is already packed to the brim. Such a warm and comfortable home, digging three feet can't find any flaws, how can I open my mouth

Two days later, Qingyue reported that she had found a house in the city and could move out at any time.

That night, Yun Yifeng was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. The more she slept, the more awake she became. Finally, she simply stepped on her shoes and got out of bed. She pushed the door open to get some air, but bumped into Ji Yanran head-on.

The clothes are disheveled, the hair is disheveled, and most of the chest is exposed.

Others call it vulgar and rude, and a beauty calls it unrestrained.

Ji Yanran was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Yun Yifeng stopped at the same place, originally wanted to say something perfunctory about the heat, but was afraid that the other party would think it was a poisonous hair, so he replied poetically: "I can't sleep, come out and look at the stars."

Ji Yanran laughed, and stuffed the things in his hands to him: "Take it."

Yun Yifeng shook: "Where did you get the wine?"

"It's newly brewed in the palace, and I haven't had time to name it yet." Ji Yanran took out the cloak from the cabinet as he spoke, and led him to the roof, "I heard that the emperor said it was good, so I brought it for you to taste. .”

Yun Yifeng said: "I'll go get two cups."

"It's only a palm-sized altar, why bother." Ji Yanran sat down on him, "Try it, if you like it, I'll move the rest back."

Yun Yifeng uncorked the wine, and the refreshing aroma wafted out. It has not been stored for a long time, the entrance is very light, but it is just right, it is quite suitable for this spring night, where there are bright stars in the sky, the courtyard is full of greenery, and white flowers bloom all over the corners, like snow that has not melted in winter.

"How?" Ji Yanran asked.

"Not bad." Yun Yifeng handed him the wine jar, "How's the other side of Yuan Mansion?"

"The secret guards are still watching, and haven't found anything unusual for the time being, but Yuan Yuansi is indeed a little too cautious, and there are many strangers living in the house." Ji Yanran said, "As for the ghost stabbing, he has been treating Yuan Zhen in a regular manner and has not made any trouble. What's wrong, you don't have to worry about it."

Yun Yifeng said: "Yes."

After a while, he said again: "Qingyue has already found a house, and I will move out in a few days."

Ji Yanran smiled, raised her head and drank the rest of the wine in one gulp: "Have you found an excuse?"

"..."

"The house that Qingyue was looking for happened to be mine too." Ji Yanran looked at him, "If you really like it, just live in it, but if you want to move it out just because of a ghost, then I won't allow it."

"The accounts between me and those people will take a long time to calculate carefully." Yun Yifeng wrapped her cloak tightly around her body and sighed, "I don't want to disturb the prince, let alone the concubine."

"I said before, if you don't want to mention it, then I won't ask anything." Ji Yanran said, "However, this morning, a woman in red was wandering around the palace and was discovered by the guards."

Yun Yifeng's heart was empty, and he panicked again.

"She claims to be your former handmaid, her name is Spider."

He didn't look like a villain, he just knelt on the ground and begged Ji Yanran to find the blood ganoderma. If he really can't find it, at least he must send Yun Yifeng back to Lost Wing Island, and don't stay in the Central Plains Wulin willfully.

Yun Yifeng covered her ears and buried her face deeply in her knees.

The nightmare past buried deep in his heart was like a terrifying monster with its bloody mouth wide open, with dirty and smelly mucus flowing from between its sharp teeth, the stomach convulsed crazily, and the severe pain made the eyes dark. Spider, he remembered her. Slender eyebrows and fine eyes, taciturn, whenever she is in pain and is about to break those chains, she will always appear in time, re-strengthen the cage, and then whisper a few words of comfort, then turn around and report everything to the ghost The stabbing caused a new round of torture, and she stood aside, shaking her head and sighing with pity... She is also a lunatic.

Ji Yanran carried him back to the bedroom.

Slightly hot tea with the familiar fragrance of jasmine.

Yun Yifeng looked up at him, her eyes were red, and her chest heaved violently. After a long time, Fang Cai said hoarsely: "Ghost Thorn is my master."

Ji Yanran frowned slightly.

"As I said, I was picked up by a lunatic when I was a child." Yun Yifeng continued, "He is that lunatic who studied martial arts as if he was crazy, and studied medicine as if he was crazy."

At that time, there were many children on the island. They lived in a large yard, and they had the best food and clothing. In addition to eating and sleeping every day, they chased each other and screamed at the top of their lungs when they were free. Smiling sharply, falling down and crying loudly, there is no peace for a moment.

Yun Yifeng has lived in this yard since he could remember, and he doesn't think it's good or bad.

Until the age of four, a group of children were called to the pharmacy and each was given a sugar pill.

"It's sweet and astringent, and my stomach hurts like twisting after eating it. Ghost Ci sat on the chair and said with a smile, let's see who doesn't hurt first." Yun Yifeng said, "I recovered the fastest at that time, and I was quite happy, feeling that I It’s amazing, so I ran to him like asking for a reward.”

And Ghost Thorn was indeed overjoyed, hugging him like a treasure and coaxing him for a long time.

In the future, such things will happen from time to time, and there will be fewer and fewer children in the compound. The bones were piled up on the beach, washed away by the sea, and the laughter and crying were completely sealed away. Every time those who survived, they hid in the house tremblingly, ignorant and foolish, waiting for the next day to go back to the pharmacy .

"There is another person who survived with me, named White Bird." Yun Yifeng said, "He originally only had a nickname, but after seeing many beautiful sapphires on the island, he changed his name to this , Unfortunately, when I was ten years old, he didn't make it through and died."

In addition to being regretful, Guici cherished Qiyun Yifeng even more, taught him martial arts, taught him to read, and even when researching poisons, he was more cautious, for fear that if he was not careful, he would torture the only remaining baby lump die.

"He doesn't know what kind of medicine he gave me. During the day I practice martial arts and study, everything goes as usual. When it gets dark, my muscles and bones become weak, like a disabled person." Yun Yifeng said, "When he wants to refine medicine, he will send someone to drag me to the pharmacy , and bound his hands and feet with iron chains."

Over the past ten years, I have been forced to swallow hundreds of kinds of poisons and medicines, but if I am really evil, even if I am thrown into a poisonous bee hole, my whole body will be swollen and deformed after being stung. After half a month, I will slowly recover and I will not die. . Gui Ci was overjoyed, and meticulously raised a batch of poisonous Gu to be locked up with him, hoping to refine a living Gu king, but this time, something went wrong—the poisonous Gu died half a month later. She was full of blood, but Yun Yifeng was almost dead, hanging on the iron chain, and her white shirt was covered with cobwebs and black blood, like a shriveled kite.

The ghost thorn was frightened out of his wits, he quickly removed the person, and managed to regain his breath, but the poison left by those Gu kings could no longer be removed.

"He is really a lunatic." Yun Yifeng's headache was about to split, "Because ancient books said that the poison of the Gu King can only be detoxified by blood ganoderma, so I went everywhere to dig graves, and once pulled out a flower from a mass grave. , the stench was bright red, it was disgusting, he was stepped on by me, he was so sad that he screamed and cried for three days, beat me half to death with a whip, and forced me to swear that I would never be self-willed in the future.”

Later, there were several times when Yun Yifeng vomited blood and was dying after eating the poisonous mushrooms, so the ghost thorns did not dare to feed them indiscriminately, and only looked for the blood ganoderma more frantically and anxiously.

"He claims to be a genius doctor of poison, there is no poison that cannot be cured, and there is no disease that cannot be cured, and I am the only exception." Yun Yifeng said, "Every time the detoxification fails, he collapses like crazy. If I can't stand it and die first, then even if he gets the blood ganoderma, he won't be able to find another person to try, because of this, I have had a good time."

It was also because of this that he had enough reason to threaten Ghost Spike to send him away from the island.
