Chapter 177

Xin Yi woke up from the trance, and suddenly looked back at the perpetrator.

It was a short young man with handsome and fair features, and a pair of clear and innocent big eyes. When he looked at her, there was a gleam of fear. After meeting her in a hurry, he lowered his head in panic, not daring to look directly at her.

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

"You don't have eyes!" Before Xin Yi could speak, a few men dressed in soap clothes and dressed as ordinary handymen beside the young man gave Xin Yi a vicious look, and hurriedly walked into the alleys of the back street surrounded by the young man.

Xin Yi touched the bumped waist, looked at the fierce look of the group of people, and repeatedly recalled the brief eye contact with the boy in his mind.

What kind of look is that?
Xin Yi shuddered suddenly.

The young man was not a man, he was clearly a young woman.

She didn't accidentally hit herself, but she was asking for help.

"not good."

Seeing a group of people going further and further away, Xin Yi had no time to think too much, turned his head and stuffed the donkey's rein into the hand of a younger brother who was watching Cao's mansion, and then took out a piece of broken silver from his arms, and handed it to he.

"Brother, please take this donkey to the Imperial City Department. It is said that a lady named Zhang from Bianhe Street sent it there..."

"Miss Zhang?" The little brother was the waiter in the restaurant next door. Seeing Xin Yi hurriedly, he was at a loss for a moment, looking her up and down, as if thinking of something.

"You are Miss Zhang? The concubine of King Guangling?"

"..."

Sure enough, the fastest-spreading rumors in the world are gossips.

It is not medical skills that can make her famous quickly, but eclectic gossip.

"Yes, yes, yes." Xin Yi had no time to argue, and just said: "You just say that it was the donkey that Miss Zhang handed over to the King of Guangling, and that I saw someone robbing the women of the people, so I followed them to see the situation..."

"Forcibly robbing women?"

The second brother was obviously very interested in the matter between her and the king of Guangling County. When he heard about the robbing of the civilian girl, his mind turned, and he suddenly realized that he thought the young couple were having some fun, so he immediately responded with a smile, and Xin Yi turned around. Into the sparsely populated alley.

"It turns out that the matter between Miss Zhang and the King of Guangling County is true." The younger brother followed Xin Yi for a moment, and was about to turn around with his donkey to go to the Imperial City Division when he was blocked by a tall figure.

"What did she tell you?" The man was much taller than the second brother, and there was a bit of nervousness and anxiety in his calm voice.

The second brother looked up.

"Alas……"

This is not a gift to the Lu family...

The second brother exclaimed, "Lord Cao?"

Cao Yi often walks in the capital, he doesn't know anyone else, but this little brother has seen him several times, and immediately pulled the donkey rope and bowed his hands to salute.

"Xiaomin has seen Mr. Cao."

Cao Yi looked down, "Let me ask you, what did she say?"

The second brother was a little nervous by his stern expression, "This little lady Zhang... She asked me to send this donkey to the Imperial City Department and give it to the King of Guangling County..."

As he said that, he seemed afraid that Cao Yi would not understand, so he smiled with a deep expression, lowered his voice and said:
"I heard that the little lady is the concubine of the king of Guangling County... She is really wild, she can do all kinds of tricks, no wonder she can win the heart of the king of the county. In the clear sky, what are you talking about robbing the daughters of the people, and let the king of Guangling go find her? ..."

As soon as the second brother finished speaking, he was pulled away by Cao Yi.

Then, watching Cao Yi gallop towards that alley, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Cao, Master Cao..."

Why did you run away on the day when you sent a big gift?

As soon as he yelled, the crowd roared, and a group of people questioned each other with suspicious eyes, not understanding what happened.

In order to show his respect for the girl from the Lu family, Cao Qilang went to give the gift in person, but slipped away halfway, what is this?

Everyone in the Cao Mansion looked at the direction Cao Yi was leaving, and they were also uneasy.

"Quickly, report to the eldest lady."

~

There was a light rain in the early hours of last night, the ground was wet, as if it had just been swept, and the air was crisp.

Xin Yi followed those people, turned across the Bian River in a blink of an eye, and entered No. [-] Tianshui Lane.

It was a door face hidden in a deep alley, not very spacious, the lintel was empty, there was no signboard or plaque, and there was no sample display. I don't know what kind of goods it was selling.Looking around, it looks like a living room of an ordinary family, except that the tables and chairs are placed in the same way, all on the left and right sides, and there are a few pictures of ladies hanging on the wall, which are very elegant, not famous, weird and inexplicable .

It was a middle-aged woman who came out to greet her. She was dressed in enchanting clothes and her makeup was gorgeous. When those people entered, she poked her head out and looked around before turning around and entering the room.

Xin Yi stood watching from a distance and couldn't hear what they were talking about. Seeing the woman being pushed and pushed in by several people, there was a faint cry.

She was hesitating whether to find a way to find out, or go back to report first, when a familiar voice sounded behind her.

"Don't go. It's a brothel with lots of nursing homes."

Xin Yi was almost scared out of his wits.

Turning her head to look, Cao Yi was standing behind her at some point, dressed in a neat azure round-neck silk dress, with a tired and pale face, and an indescribable sense of loss.

Xin Yi: "Lord Cao...why are you here?"

Cao Yi didn't answer her question, walked towards her slowly, glanced at the front of the brothel, his voice was a little bit colder.

"You can't save her. Most of these women are sold by their parents or the master's family, or their families are in disaster, and it is difficult to make ends meet, so they have to be sold as prostitutes. In the floating world, you can't help yourself, you can't help others at all... ..."

Xin Yi frowned, "Master Cao doesn't want to help, he just stands by and does nothing, why bother to blame me?"

Cao Yi looked at her deeply, then glanced away again.

"I'm not blaming you, but I feel sorry for you. You can save a moment, but you can't save the whole life. You can save one person, but you can't save all the suffering. In the end, the one who hurts is still yourself."

"..."

Xin Yi looked at him.

I don't know which sentence triggered her raging fire of rebellion, and her blood was ignited at a touch.

"If I don't see it, I can't control it. If it happens in front of me, I don't care. Anyway, if I can save one, I can save it for a while. I'm not like Mr. Cao, who resigned himself to his fate at a young age. What's more, Whether she was betrayed by her parents, or was robbed by thieves, we don't know the whole picture, so how can we easily draw such a conclusion and let her die?"

Xin Yi couldn't forget the look the woman gave her when she slammed into her heavily.

If there was no hope left, how could she send a distress signal to her when she was desperate?
As a human being, how can I just watch her fall into the fire pit while being a woman and ignore her?
Xin Yi straightened up slowly, and walked out without hesitation.

Cao Yi grabbed her, "What are you doing?"

Xin Yi turned around, looked at the uneasiness and worry on his handsome face, and sighed helplessly, "Since it's a brothel, and they're open for business, they won't refuse customers, right? I'm just going to deliver medicine to some girl Yes, let's talk about the situation later. I'm afraid that if I go too late, that girl will be poisoned..."

Cao Yi shook his head, "Don't be willful."

Xin Yi squinted his eyes and looked at Cao Yi. Thinking of those beautiful days, his heart suddenly felt sour, and he couldn't tell what it was like, "Sir Cao, please go back and organize your wedding. It's better for adults to take care of my affairs in the future." , so as not to get into trouble..."

Cao Yi stared at her for a moment, as if two flames were burning in his eyes, and the scorching light made Xin Yi feel uncomfortable.

There was a sudden noise at the door of the brothel.

Xin Yi's heart tightened, and he wanted to avoid him by pushing him away, but Cao Yi grabbed his arm and pulled him towards the corner, "Come with me."

Xin Yi squinted slightly and looked at him.

Cao Yi was born and raised in Bianjing. Without a word, he brought Xin Yi into the low wall next door and hid behind a big willow tree. With the cover of the eaves, he could clearly see the courtyard gate of the brothel and the passers-by. , but will not be discovered by others.

Coming out of the brothel were a few burly men with weapons in their hands. They were dressed differently from the man who captured the woman just now, and looked more fierce.

When they passed under the wall, Xin Yi heard a sound of cursing.

"Whenever you get an opportunity, go to the brothel. You really don't want your life. If you miss the errand, you will have a good fruit to eat."

"Isn't there still an hour to come? It can't be missed. Even if Fu Jiuqu has three heads and six arms, he won't be able to escape the brothers' blows today."

"I just came here with a young girl who is so slick, and the brothers still want to try something new before leaving."

"Pit. Sooner or later, I will die on my little lady's belly..."

Several people left cursing.

It was as if a cold snake had climbed up Xin Yi's back.

Fu Jiuqu?Xin Yi shivered all over, and looked at Cao Yi coldly.

"What is Hades Slash?"

Cao Yi frowned and didn't speak, but his expression told Xin Yi that the so-called "King of Hades Killing", as the name suggests, was going to see the King of Hades' assassination.
