Gongs, drums and firecrackers sounded in unison, and the dark night sky filled with fireworks.
In Kyoto, even though it is already the third day of the Lunar New Year, the spirit of the New Year is still strong. Brand-new red lanterns are hung everywhere on both sides of the streets. The sound of festive music and the roar of people make people can't help but be intoxicated in this strong feeling of the New Year.
.
Nie Yun followed Han Yue step by step, his face a little bitter. He didn't know why the senior sister seemed to be in a bad mood. Even in such a lively gathering, she didn't even glance at it, and looked straight at Xiao Xue.
Walk to the address given.
Could it be that the master left too early? Nie Yun couldn't help but think to himself. But that's not right. The master left on the second day of the Lunar New Year last year, and he didn't see the senior sister being unhappy.
What's more, the senior sister didn't become unhappy after the master left. It seemed that she was unhappy after... Nie Yun tilted his head and thought about it.
Well...it started like this on the first day of the new year, and no matter how much I teased her, I still couldn't see my senior sister's mood improving, and she even felt a little bit more depressed.
Although the senior sister smiled reluctantly to prevent him from worrying, how could she hide this from herself? I wanted to go up and ask, but the senior sister said it was nothing...
No, Master No. 2 had just left, and Nie Yun No. 3 directly planned to come over to "ask for help" through Wanli Telephone Notes, hoping that Xiao Xue, a good friend, could persuade her, or find out something... That's it.
Such a scene occurred.
Kyoto is worthy of being the largest and most prosperous city in the entire Daqian. It is just a section of the outer city that is probably a bit larger than the entire Yishui City, and the level of prosperity is even different. Along the Suzaku Street that runs from north to south, there are
After walking for several hours, the two of them arrived at the so-called inner city of Kyoto.
The inner city of Kyoto is relatively less smoky than the outer city, but the decoration inside is more high-end and elegant. Although the red lanterns hanging on the streets are also brand-new, they are made of smooth and soft materials.
Then you can know how valuable this red lantern is.
Young ladies from various families stood in twos and threes everywhere, admiring the scenery or putting on lanterns. It was less of the bustling scene outside the city. Although it was a bit more elegant, it still seemed a bit lonely.
There are obviously many more government officials in the inner city than in the outer city. Almost every street has two to three government officials with swords to maintain public order, not only to prevent people in the inner city from drinking and getting drunk, but also to prevent South Vietnam from
Or some reactionary forces in the country commit suicide to create chaos in the inner city.
After all, the people living in the inner city are either dignitaries or relatives of the emperor. If there were a lot of casualties here, it would be no exaggeration to say that the whole country would be shaken.
As for Xiao Xue's family living in the inner city of Kyoto, neither of them was surprised at all. After all, Xiao Xue was a young lady who could play with magic talismans before entering the university. And how rich her family was, to Nie Yun
It's still a mystery now.
All I know is that this eldest lady has never been short of money in college.
After walking along Zhuque Street for more than half an hour, when they almost reached the majestic building of the city within the city, the two of them slowly stopped and looked around, looking for the "Xiao Mansion" hanging on it.
A house with a plaque.
"What are you two doing?" The two looked around and soon caught the attention of a government officer with a knife, who immediately frowned and asked.
Although the male of the two is extremely handsome and the female is as graceful as a fairy, they do not look like so-called "terrorists", but here

They are almost on the soles of the emperor's feet. Look at the mansions all around. They are at least the homes of third-rank officials!
As a government servant in the inner city, not only should I know all the servants in the palace, big and small, but the young masters and ladies, big and small, especially those in the area at the foot of the Forbidden City, should not only keep them in mind, but I should at least have one person who is the best.
Basic image.
And these two are obviously not strangers to the servants. They are still looking around under the Forbidden City. It would be derelict not to check them. After all, who knows if you are observing some places that are not well guarded so that you can secretly take notes and destroy them?
"I?"
Nie Yun looked at the officer with the sword and pointed at himself in confusion.
"That's right, it's you two." The government servant walked over with a knife and spoke again to confirm: "Who are you and what are you doing here?"
"Oh... oh, we are students from Yuelu Academy, here to find our classmates." Nie Yun reacted and did not embarrass others. He immediately took out an identity plate from Yuelu Academy and handed it to the yamen servant.
After hearing about Yuelu Academy, the sword-carrying officer's attitude obviously improved a lot. He quietly let go of his right hand that had been on the handle of the sword before, stretched out his hands to take the talisman, inspected it carefully, and then handed it back with both hands and said with a smile.
: "It turns out he is a student from Yuelu. I am disrespectful and disrespectful."
This is the influence of Yuelu University School! Even just a piece of student identity certificate can dispel all doubts.
Because everyone knows that although a large part of the students who come out of the university are not willing to join the military or politics, or they just wander around and study hard after realizing their ambitions through a short military and political career. But as long as they are in the military and political system
If Zhongqin works diligently, it depends on the appreciation of the current saint, but it is almost certain that he will become a third-grade official!
"I wonder what the name or surname of the classmate you are looking for is?" The yamen officer with the knife patted his chest and continued: "I dare not say anything else, but the location of this inner city mansion is the door.
It's clear, maybe it can help you."
There was a hint of joy in Nie Yun's eyes, and he said with a smile: "My classmate's surname is Xiao, he should be in the Xiao Mansion."
"Xiao Mansion..." The corner of the officer's mouth twitched slightly, with a look of embarrassment in his eyes: "This..."
"Uh...what's wrong?" Nie Yun scratched his head in confusion.
"...The surname Xiao is the surname of the country. After the founding of your Majesty's country, many Xiao clans were divided into princes. This Xiao Mansion...is too many." The Yamen servant was a little helpless and wanted to sell a good deal to this university student.
, I didn’t expect it to be so troublesome, but I already said my words of help, so I had to continue: “May I ask your classmate’s name?”
"Xiao Xue is the snow falling from the sky." Nie Yun said with some embarrassment. He was careless for a moment and forgot that the surname Xiao is a national surname. It's not all over the streets in this inner city, but it's definitely a lot. Fortunately,
I asked this yamen official in advance here, otherwise if he came to the door one by one... Nie Yun felt embarrassed just thinking about it.
"Xiao Xue?" The Yamen servant murmured softly, frowning slightly. In his impression, no prince seemed to have such a daughter named Xiao Xue, and she was a daughter who entered the Yuelu Academy's university hall.
If he hadn't known that the two college students in front of him had no need to lie to him, a mere yamen official, he would have couldn't help but wonder if Nie Yun was teasing him... But now, he could only wonder if it was his own professionalism.
Not enough, missing out on some prince's daughter...
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
.
Could it be an illegitimate daughter? The yamen servant couldn't help but think, it doesn't look like that. If an illegitimate daughter can live in the main house in the inner city openly, and even invite three or five friends to get together, how kind will the mistress of the house be?
ah...
He pondered for a moment with a slight headache. Just when the yamen officer was about to clasp his fists and say sorry, a clear and sweet voice came out, causing his whole body to freeze slightly in shock.
"Xiao Yunzi, you are so stupid! You can use Wanli Telephone to ask me directly. Don't bother me here." Xiao Xue, who was wearing a fiery red jacket and skirt, did not look bulky, but gave people a sense of lightness.
With a feeling of excitement, he ran towards Nie Yun and the two of them. The fiery red coat and skirt contrasted with the white snow on the street, like a fire elf dancing in the snow.
"Hehe, Yueyue is still smart." Xiao Xue turned around and took Han Yue's slender arm, leaning her head against her affectionately.
Han Yue silently took back the emerald green jade talisman in her palm, and the corners of her rosy mouth slightly raised: "Is it possible that we really count on him?"
"Then why do you say you are a senior sister?" Looking at the rare smile on the senior sister's face, Nie Yun also smiled. He turned to look at the stiff Yamen servant with a trace of doubt in his eyes, but he didn't think much about it.
, clasped his fists slightly and said, "Then I won't bother you, big brother."
"Remember to add more clothes when it's cold." Nie Yun couldn't help but add.
The yamen servant seemed to be waking up from a dream, his whole body was slightly shaken, and there was a look of understanding in his eyes. He subconsciously wanted to salute, but as soon as he bowed halfway, he saw a slender white jade palm swinging rapidly.
"Brother, what are you doing?... You can't help it." Nie Yun was stunned, then jumped back suddenly, what's going on? He said so well, but he looked like he was going to kneel down, wasn't it because he didn't help?
It's not my fault, why should I blame myself so much...
The half-bent figure of the officer with the knife froze again, raised his head slightly, and met a pair of beautiful eyes that kept blinking. His heart was spinning a thousand times, and he slowly bent down completely, wiped the falling snow on his shoes, and raised his head
He glanced at Nie Yun and said calmly: "I just wiped off my shoes. What do you think I'm going to do?"
"Uh...it's nothing." Nie Yun scratched his head in embarrassment: "Brother, please continue..."
"Now that you have found your classmate, I will continue to patrol." The yamen officer glanced at Nie Yun lightly, and the enthusiasm he had just now disappeared.
"Huh..." Glancing at Xiao Xue's quietly raised thumb, the yamen servant breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He turned slightly and walked towards the opposite street. At some point, his right hand rested on the handle of the knife again, and the corner of his eye flickered.
Staring at Xiao Xue's vicinity.
"I didn't expect the government officials in Kyoto to be so warm-hearted." Nie Yun sighed slightly as he watched the government officials with swords place their right hands on the handles of the swords again and patrol the streets meticulously: "After doing good deeds, they didn't even leave their names, eh...
.Am I too narrow-minded after all..."
"Hahaha, that's why you are the 'little' Yunzi." Xiao Xue burst out laughing. Han Yue, who was laughing next to her, was a little dazed, as if there was something particularly interesting that she didn't know?
"Okay, okay, let's go and take you to my house." Xiao Xue smiled enough, turned around and picked up Han Yue, while Nie Yun followed step by step like a follower.
The sky in the capital always comes as soon as it arrives, and the fine snowflakes slowly fall down without knowing when. The three people walking together can't help but speed up their pace slightly, until their figures gradually disappear into the vast whiteness and disappear.
