Xiao Jingxi watched Ren Yaoqi slowly walk out of the courtyard, there was still a faint smile in her dark and beautiful eyes, but a hint of thought quietly emerged.

He turned around and walked slowly back to the stone bench to sit down. With his slender fingers, he picked up the round chess pieces that had been retracted into the chess jar, and resumed the previous chess game one by one, with focused and leisurely movements.

Only one person and one sheep remained in the quiet courtyard, forming a silent landscape.

At some point, a man in a gray cloth shirt quietly stood behind Xiao Jingxi, without saying a word.

Xiao Jingxi didn't look back, and waited until the chess pieces on the chessboard had been set before he spoke, his deep and hoarse voice was like an ancient movement: "Han's affairs are family affairs, so they don't have to intervene."

The man in the gray cloth shirt answered yes unconsciously, and then said: "Han Dongshan went to ask Mr. Gu who is beside the prince, and Mr. Gu sent someone to investigate."

Hearing the words, Xiao Jingxi tilted his head slightly, and frowned his beautiful brows: "Why is the palace so busy recently?"

The man in gray lowered his head, not daring to answer.

Xiao Jingxi looked at the chessboard, flicked his fingers to change the chessboard, and said leisurely: "Go and tell Mr. Gu that if you can't even handle your own housework well, what else can Yanbei Palace expect from them?" His tone Although soft, the words that come out are extremely heavy.

"Yes, my lord, I understand." The man in gray hurriedly bowed his head.

Xiao Jingxi continued to fiddle with the chess game, sometimes retreating and re-moving, the moves were silent, only the sound of wind blowing grass.

Just when the man in gray thought Xiao Jingxi had nothing to say, he heard him speak again: "Go and check Han Dongshan."

Although the man in gray was a little surprised why his master suddenly paid attention to the Han family, he bowed his head and obeyed the order immediately.

"How is the army doing now?" Xiao Jingxi left the matter of the Han family aside and asked about something else.

"Back to son, Mrs. Wu has brought Miss Wu back to the mansion. Wu Xiao and Zhou He, an old counselor beside him, are with her. In the past few days, Zhou He has asked to see the prince three times, and the prince has seen him twice."

The Mrs. Wu he was talking about was the wife of Wu Xiaohe, the current commander-in-chief of Ningxia, Xiao Wei, the Princess of Yanbei Palace, and Xiao Jingxi's aunt.

Hearing this, Xiao Jingxi didn't move his eyebrows or eyes: "I'm asking about military matters, not about the palace."

The gray-clothed man paused and buried his head, saying: "Since the news that the imperial court was going to disarm the army was announced, there have been several riots in the Yanbei army under the instigation of a few people with ulterior motives. The subordinates follow the orders of the young master. Standing still for the time being, I secretly wrote down the troublemakers. Today, I heard someone report that they plan to gather more people to make trouble in the near future, and they plan to hide in the mountains with their money after looting several big shops in Yunyang City Occupy the mountain as king."

Xiao Jingxi didn't speak when he heard the words, he stared at the chessboard with a slightly thoughtful look, and he didn't know whether he was thinking about the chess strategy or what his subordinates reported.

After a while, he picked up the chess pieces on the chessboard that gradually came to a conclusion one by one, and said, "Go and ask Tong He to prepare the carriage, and return to Yunyang City today."

"Then the White Dragon Temple..."

Xiao Jingxi said lightly: "Tongde will stay."

His voice just fell. From nowhere came out another man with an ordinary face and a medium build, and bowed respectfully to Xiao Jingxi.

"I'll give you a month to settle the matter between Bailong Temple and the major monasteries." Xiao Jingxi glanced at Tongde who had just walked out, and ordered softly.

"Yes, young master." Tongde replied with his head bowed.

Xiao Jingxi got up and walked out, his slender figure quickly disappeared at the cave door.

When Ren Yaoqi came out, she didn't see Xiao Jinglin. The maid Pingguo was squatting under the eaves in front of the wing room. When she saw Ren Yaoqi coming out, she hurried over and followed behind Ren Yaoqi.

I met no one else along the way, and the master and servant left the yard.

At the gate of the courtyard, Xi'er, the maidservant next to Mrs. Li, was calling the two wives aside for questioning. When she saw Ren Yaoqi coming out, she quickly greeted her: "Miss, are you alright?"

Xi'er looked at Ren Yaoqi worriedly.

"I'm fine, the princess just bought me a cup of tea." Ren Yaoqi comforted Xi'er in a gentle voice, "Why are you here?"

"Madam heard that you were taken away by the princess of Yanbei Palace, she was a little worried, so she sent her servants over to watch." Xi'er asked curiously, "Fifth Miss, how do you know the princess? "

Ren Yaoqi shook her head while walking: "Today is also the first time I see the princess, I didn't know him before."

"Then why did she ask you to drink tea for no reason?" Xi'er didn't appear to disbelieve, but was very curious and puzzled.

I heard that the princess of the Yanbei Prince's Mansion has a very weird temper, and he will not go back to the Palace all year round. It is obviously a girl's family, but he has to patrol the border with several Yanbei Prince's families, which is better than a man.

This princess is a rumored character, in the eyes of ordinary people, she is no different from those legendary women sung in dramas and books, but such a woman suddenly forced her daughter to drink tea, The two of them have never met before, which is really incomprehensible.

"The Princess only said that she wanted to find someone to drink tea with, but I don't know why it was me." Ren Yaoqi patiently explained.

Not only the maidservants were surprised that Xiao Jinglin dragged Ren Yaoqi to drink tea, but when they returned to the resting yard, Li Shi, who had been waiting for a long time and was about to come out to find someone, was also very puzzled.

Ren Yaoqi said it again according to the answer just now, but Li Shi still couldn't think of a reason after thinking about it for a long time.

Nanny Zhou comforted Mrs. Li and said: "Since the princess has no malicious intentions, you don't have to worry about it, madam. And it's a good thing that the princess likes Miss Fifth. Although this princess doesn't come back to Yanbei Palace very often King Yanbei likes it."

Mrs. Li nodded: "You're right. Although the princess has a weird temper, I haven't heard of any evil deeds."

Ren Yaoqi didn't know that Xiao Jingxi returned to Yunyang City not long after she left, and that she and Mrs. Li set off for Baihe Town early the next morning.

When the carriage was going down the mountain path, the wind blew the curtain open, and Ren Yaoqi casually glanced out, just in time to see two nuns in light gray robes walking up the mountain path while talking.

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but take a look at the older nun. She was fair-skinned and charming, and there was a bit of unintentional obsequiousness in her eyes when she was talking and laughing. Boundary, she didn't shave her head.

Ren Yaoqi was thinking about the identity of this nun, but the nun turned her head slightly as if feeling something, and glanced at this side. Seeing that it was a carriage used by the female relatives of a wealthy family, she turned her head again and continued to talk to a younger woman. The nun joked.

Ren Yaoqi was sitting in the carriage, and she could still hear her clear and crisp laughter. But the little nun who was traveling with her saw passers-by looking at them, and whispered to remind the nun to keep her voice down.

The nun with the hair was still talking and laughing loudly as if she had never heard of it.

Nanny Zhou glanced out, frowned and said, "How does this woman look like a monk?"

However, Ren Yaoqi remembered what she heard about a female nun in the nearby Baiyunyuan when she came to Bailong Temple last time. This nun with hair must be the one surnamed Liang.

Looks like a wanton temper.

However, when something like that happened last time, she was still able to stay in this Buddhist and pure place to hide, and she didn't feel any impact on her face. This woman should not be a simple person.

The carriage passed by two nuns, Ren Yaoqi slowly looked away.

After descending the mountain, he turned into the official road from the path around the mountain, and after walking not far, he saw several carriages coming from the direction of Yunyang City, and saw that the style of the carriages was the same as that of Ren Yaoqi and Li Shi. are very similar.

"Ma'am, the second wife's carriage is behind us, coming from the direction of Yunyang City." Someone outside reported.

"Second sister-in-law said before that she went back to Yunyang City to attend her nephew's wedding banquet, so she should have come from her mother's house. Ask the front to stop first, and wait for second sister-in-law's carriage first." Li ordered softly.

So the carriage of Mrs. Li and his party stopped slowly, and the carriage behind quickly caught up and stopped beside Mrs. Li's carriage. The second wife, Mrs. Su lifted the curtain, revealing an ordinary and gentle face.

Mrs. Li also lifted the curtain of the car, and called "Second Sister-in-law" with a smile.

Mrs. Su nodded gently: "I just saw the Ren family's carriage in front of me and thought that some master from the mansion came to Bailong Temple to burn incense. It turned out to be the third younger sibling."

Ren Yaoqi called out to her second aunt.

"Huh? The Fifth Sister is here too?" Ren Yaoting's voice sounded in Su's carriage, and then Ren Yaoting's face appeared beside the curtain.

Su frowned and scolded her daughter lightly: "Ting'er, why don't you say hello to Third Aunt first? There is no rule."

Ren Yaoting hastily called "Third Aunt", but her eyes glanced at Li's carriage.

Li smiled and spoke for Ren Yaoting: "The sisters haven't seen each other for a few days, so it's only natural that they get closer."

"Mother, I want to sit with Fifth Sister. The last time I talked to Fifth Sister about my eldest cousin, Fifth Sister said that most girls in the capital are spoiled and hard to talk. But my eldest cousin is not, my daughter is going to talk to her About the cousin sister-in-law." Ren Yaoting begged.

Mrs. Su didn't stop her when she heard the words, she nodded and said gently: "Ask your fifth sister what she means. If she is willing, you sisters can sit in the carriage at the back."
