In the hearts of most people, this matter that has been involved for a month seems to be over. The Gu family has buried Gu Hong, and all relevant matters have been prepared by the Ministry of Rites. General Gu died for the country and was awarded the title of Duke Zhonglie. Most people are mourning the death of Gu Hong.

On that day, the people were vegetarian for three days. However, the funeral of Ye Yongchang in the Ye family has been delayed. It has been nearly twenty days since Ye Yongchang’s body was brought back. The emperor did not issue an order to let the Ministry of Rites handle the funeral of Ye Yongchang. Even Ye Yongchang

He didn't ask whether he was buried. He only said that the national traitor was guilty and should not enter the ancestral grave. Ye Ningyu refused to accept it and she was waiting. If his father was buried now, his father would be a traitor who was not worthy of entering the Ye family's ancestral grave and would be punished by everyone.

. She will never let her father be tainted during his lifetime and still carry the stigma after his death. She will let her father be buried in glory, and let those who framed his father kneel down to see him off! Soon, soon! Three days later

, Youshi. Ye Ningyu was thinking about the situation at the border in front of his soul when Butler Fang came to report in a low voice. "Miss, you're back... back!"

Ye Ningyu was shocked. "Who is back?"

Although she knew it, she still wanted to confirm it. "Yanqing."

Butler Fang whispered, the voice almost inaudible. Ye Ning recognized the words from Butler Fang's mouth shape. "Did you bring him back?"

Butler Fang nodded solemnly. When Fang Yanqing left the Ye family, Ye Ningyu had warned that when they came back, the Ye family would be under surveillance. Fang Yanqing first took people to settle in the city, and then sent a signal to Ye

Mansion. Butler Fang has been awake almost all night these days, always paying attention to the direction of the west of the city. Just now, three white signal fireworks appeared in the sky west of the city. That was Fang Yanqing's code. If everything is successful, he will set off three firework.

If no one was brought back, or things changed, only one shot would be fired. Butler Fang was convinced that what he saw were three fireworks. Ye Ningyu felt ecstatic, and she grabbed Butler Fang's wrist and took deep breaths. "Okay.

,good!"

"Weiwei Xiao and I are going out with the eldest girl."

Fang Guanjia said. Ye Ningyu waved her hand, "I have arrangements for this matter. Uncle Fang, don't mention it to anyone. Remember, everything is as usual in the Ye family."

After saying that, Ye Ningyu walked into the study at the back of the mourning hall. After a while, Qinglian also entered the study holding a bundle. Qinglian took out a tight-fitting black dress from the bundle and put it on Ye Ningyu, with a belt around his waist.

The wound was a little painful, so she frowned and said nothing. Although Qinglian was worried, he didn't let the eldest girl take her. She knew that the eldest girl was going to do something big, and she couldn't carry it with her shoulders or lift it, which would hinder her.

I can only try my best to prepare the eldest girl's outfit so that she can wear it comfortably. "Go out. If anyone comes to see me, just say I'm asleep."

"yes."

Qinglian walked out of the study. She didn't ask Ye Ningyu how to avoid the guards at the door, but she believed that the elder girl must have a way. Ye Ningyu stood in the study, looking at the picture of pines and cypresses on the wall, with tears streaming down her face.

Back then, my father was painting in the study. After finishing the painting, he called Ye Ningyu into the study and looked at her lovingly. "Ayun, what do you think of this painting of pine and cypresses for your father?"

Ye Ningyu said almost without thinking, "The pines and cypresses are proud and majestic, evergreen all year round, and have endured severe winters. Just like my father's bravery and martial arts, protecting the country for thousands of years."

Ye Ningyu was only eight years old at that time. Ye Yongchang laughed heartily and held his daughter in his arms. Ye Ningyu stared at the painting and said, "It's just... there is a poem missing from the painting."

"Then Ayun chooses a song for his father."

"The solitary pine stops at the green cover, and supports its roots against the wide road. If you don't take risks to protect yourself, you will be mistaken for the sake of understanding."

Ye Ningyu slowly read out a poem. Ye Yongchang repeated his daughter's poem and said with satisfaction, "Liu Sanbian's poem has great ambitions and unswerving determination. It will not be weakened by temporary losses, nor will it be defeated by temporary gains."

Hi. It really matches this painting. Ayun, come and compose a poem for my father."

Eight-year-old Ye Ningyu's delicate handwriting does not match the green pines and cypresses. However, over the years, Ye Yongchang has liked this painting the most and has hung it in the study for nearly ten years. Ye Ningyu brought his thoughts back,

Wiping away her tears, she pushed the scroll away, revealing a clean wall. Ye Ningyu put her palms on the wall and groped around. Suddenly, she pressed down on the wall with all five fingers. On the flat wall, suddenly appeared

A hidden compartment. Inside the hidden compartment was a circular switch. Ye Ningyu held the switch and turned it a few times to the left and a few times to the right. There was only a rumble, and the wall on the other side of the study suddenly

Turning, a secret passage was revealed. Ye Ningyu put on a black veil, put on a sword at her waist, and ducked into the secret passage. When the figure disappeared into the secret passage, the wall slowly closed, and the study returned to calm. Ye Ningyu didn't know

After walking in the secret passage for a long time, when she saw a faint light, her heart beat faster. She knocked on the door panel of the secret passage and soon heard a faint response from the other end. Then, the door in front of her was opened.

, a middle-aged man with a strong build, sharp eyes, and wearing ordinary people's clothing stood in front of Ye Ningyu. "Big girl."

The man bowed and saluted. "Uncle Lin, is there something strange?"

"Everything is business as usual."

"I'm going to the Xuanyuan Inn in the west of the city. Send a few people to follow me from a distance. Don't show up without my order, so as not to attract attention."

"yes."

Ye Ningyu opened the door and walked out, walking downstairs with a vigorous posture. People were coming and going downstairs, diners were feasting, and the waiter was shouting. This is the famous restaurant Hemingxuan. It has been in business for many years, and the dishes are cheap and delicious.

Ordinary people and some literati like to come here to drink and dine. Not many dignitaries come here. Although the dishes are excellent, they feel that they are not in line with their status because the prices are too cheap. Over the years, the prices of Hemingxuan’s dishes have not increased, said shopkeeper Lin Sicai.

Zeng Ming said that our restaurant is only open to the common people and will never increase the price. When the people heard this, they were more willing to come here. It was almost midnight, the sky was dark, but the Hemingxuan was brightly lit. Ye, who was dressed in black, was

Ning Yu walked out of the side door of Hemingxuan and trotted towards the Xuanyuan Inn. She was light and had excellent Qinggong, but the wounds on her body had not healed, but after running for a while, she felt that the wounds were torn apart.

It cracked, and traces of blood oozed from the lower abdomen. But Ye Ningyu didn't dare to stay, Fang Yanqing was still waiting for her. She had to go to this matter in person. She wanted to see that person in person and hear it from his mouth.

The truth! "Girl, do you need help?"

Suddenly a voice sounded in the night wind, leisurely and provocative, as if it could penetrate people's hearts. Ye Ningyu tightened her palms and followed the sound, only to see a tall figure standing on the roof not far away. The man was dressed in white.

, his clothes were blown up by the wind, looking straight at him with a smile on his face. It was him! Ye Ningyu didn't want to answer at this time, she just wanted to rush to the inn immediately. Just as she was about to leave, she saw the man falling from the roof, as if

A piece of feather-like light fell next to Ye Ningyu. Ye Ningyu was a little surprised. In her previous life, she only thought of him as a sick man, but she didn't know that this man was so good at martial arts! But it was only a moment of surprise. She remembered her important matters and coldly

He said, "No need."
