Luo nine needles

Chapter 187

Without staying up for several days and nights, and without having to go back to Yucheng to ask his parents for a private talk, Lu Yizhi quickly learned things that he didn't know before.

The old servant of the guard house in the capital knelt on the ground and told what Master Lu had arranged.

Although far away from Yucheng, as an important servant who takes care of the young master, the family needs to know about the young master's basic necessities of life, and he also needs to pay attention to the big and small things at home.

The entanglement between Mr. Lu and his wife and Ah Qi is also related to Young Master. Even if he didn't tell him the details, he still inquired in detail, even better than the servants at home.

It's just that there is no need to tell the young master about these small things.

The son never felt that there was anything to ask.

Just a foster orphan.

Who would have thought that the young master would suffer a disadvantage in front of the orphaned girl.

The old servant flashed a thought, just like the old man did back then.

This is the capital city, there is no Lu family's shop, only the young master, it would be miserable if you folded the young master in, he dare not hide it anymore.

"I just want to teach her a lesson." The old servant stammered, "Set fire to scare her, let her go home."

Lu Yizhi looked at the flickering lights: "Set the fire, Lu An, you are so old, tell me, in the middle of the night, when people fall asleep, setting fire to the house is just to scare people?"

The old servant lowered his head, of course...not.

The weather was dry and the night was quiet. Once the fire started, they might have been choked to death before being frightened.

not to mention……

"What did you say just now? You went there with a knife to pry open the door? Then you slipped your hand and poked yourself, hacking yourself to death?" Lu Yizhi said, then laughed, stretched out his hand and pressed his forehead and sighed.

The old servant was a little wronged and hurriedly said: "My lord, this is true."

At least half true.

I was accidentally stabbed to death by a knife.

Kill yourself?Lu Yizhi sneered again in his heart. Although he was a scholar, how could a person who knew he was going to kill himself kill himself?Either kill someone or be killed by someone else...

only….
His brows were also frowned, others?In the middle of the night, beside the lake outside the village, there are two orphans, who is the other?
Seven stars could not help appearing in front of his eyes.

Throwing into his arms in panic, he covered his face with a handkerchief in front of him and sobbed, perhaps because he couldn't see his face clearly in that situation, so the blur disappeared, leaving only the impression that he was sitting in front of him not long ago, holding a cup of tea Sitting.

Although his thoughts were chaotic at that moment, his vision was extremely clear, and he could see the woman's face clearly.

It was a beautiful and unfamiliar face.

The old servant's voice was still talking.

"In the end, I kept the handle and was threatened by the servant girl. At that time, Xu Cheng's new magistrate was in a hurry to rectify the bureaucracy. The Ning family had already been arrested. The master didn't want to cause trouble..."

Hearing this, Lu Yizhi shivered slightly, sat up straight, and interrupted the old servant: "You said that the magistrate of Xucheng rectified the administration of officials..."

The old servant nodded, that's right, the second lady's natal family had an accident, and I told the young master at that time, but it is a relative's family, and it doesn't have much to do with their Lu family.

However, it cannot be said that it is completely irrelevant.

The old servant sighed with a little resentment.

"The elder brother of the second wife's family was beheaded, and the family was destroyed in the blink of an eye."

Although it is only a bureaucrat, the magistrate is changed every three to five years, and the officials have been generation after generation. It is often more convenient to do things locally than to be an official.

After getting married, the merchants of the Lu family also got the convenience of being an official of the Ning family.

If you say no, it's gone. With one less help and another stain, Mrs. Ning can no longer come out to see people.

The old servant was filled with resentment and pity, and the young master who was listening to him asked, "Why did the magistrate pay attention to Ning's house?"

Why?Said ah, to rectify the bureaucracy.

The old servant raised his head to look at the young master.

Lu Yizhi looked at him, and asked again: "I'm talking about the reason, what reason did you take down the Ning family?"

Reason?The old servant was questioned, does an official need a reason to get rid of an official?

Isn't it just those corruption, power grabbing, fish and meat township, oh, Ning officials even falsified accounts, this is the key that the magistrate can't bear.

"Tell me from beginning to end." Lu Yizhi said, "Tell me from the very beginning."

At the very beginning, the old servant thought about it, and it was that Mr. Ning 24 was arrested, saying that he was domineering. In fact, it was just a cover. Later, they realized that it was to confuse Ning officials. Sure enough, they followed step by step and finally beheaded. The great crime of Ning Li was put on the head of Ning Li, saying that Ning Li...

"Don't say Li Ning, but Young Master 24." Lu Yizhi interrupted.

24 Young master, what can I say, just that little thing, rampant, idle, cockfighting and dogfighting, there is even a crime that says that she blackmailed a little girl who sold her prey after eating in a restaurant...
"You said earlier, what does Ah Qi do for a living after leaving home?" Lu Yizhi suddenly asked.

The old servant was stunned again.

The servants kneeling by the side rushed to shout: "Sell mountain products! Pheasants, wild rabbits, and wild boars!"

After the young man yelled this sentence, he didn't hear the young master's further questioning, and the room fell into silence for an instant.

The old servant opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't say anything, his eyes were full of disbelief.

The young master sat motionless, his eyes fixed.

"So..." Lu Yizhi said slowly.

The old servant hurriedly said: "Yes, the second lady said that she wanted Mr. 24 to help, but...not long after saying this, Mr. 24 was arrested."

It was so fast that the second wife didn't even think whether Mr. 24 made a move.

Besides, it was really a shot, how could it be that maid who made the Ning family arrested?How could she use the government?
"My lord, you think too much." The old servant murmured.

Lu Yizhi leaned back in his chair, looked at the two kneeling servants in the room, and waved his hands: "Go down."

The boy was still a little unresponsive, didn't he ask? He just started talking, and then saw the old servant walking out in a daze.

You don't need to ask these servants, you know what you should know, and if you don't know anything, you can ask that person directly.

The door closed, bringing the night wind to swirl, the candle flames danced, and the light and shadow pulled, as if to tear him apart.

Lu Yizhi looked at the shadow on the ground. It was the first time he felt that he had become fragmented when he grew so big.

He had never been in such a state of embarrassment, and it was in front of a woman.

……

……

Pushing open the window of the water pavilion, sunlight and water reflected each other, like pearls falling on a jade plate, surrounded by red and yellow leaves, colorful, several young women crowded around the window, watching this scene from a distance, discussing that it should be painted.

"Only Miss Xiahou can paint such a beautiful autumn scenery." A lady said with a smile.

The other lady looked left and right: "Miss Xiahou?"

It was only then that everyone realized that Miss Xiahou was not by their side, and hurriedly turned their heads to look for it. They saw Miss Xiahou was still sitting on the soft couch, and the maid was whispering something in front of her.

"You didn't come home today?" Miss Xia Hou asked softly.

The maid nodded and said in a low voice, "Let Qingniu tell you, I'm going to Linglongfang again."

I still have to go, didn't you convince me last time?Miss Xia Hou thought to herself.

"Ah Qing." The ladies over there called out, "Come and see, and draw this autumn scenery."

Miss Xiahou raised her head and smiled at everyone, she came in response, and said softly to the maidservant: "No hurry, the third young master can convince her."

I hope that Qixing is not a confused woman.

Everyone yearns for good scenery in this world, but not all scenery can be retained, and if it is not matched, the beautiful scenery can also become a swamp.

……

……

Watching the young man get out of the car, the two servants lifted another box, and the shop assistants on both sides couldn't help laughing together.

"How can there be someone who just came to repair one and then sent another one? This is an excuse."

"There are plays and there are plays."

Sitting in the tea shop, Zhu Chuan, wearing a hat, coarse clothes, and dressed as a coolie, curled his lips, looked away from the box he was carrying, and came to give money again, this kid is really worthless!

The box was placed heavily on the ground again.

No need to say hello this time, Aokiji took the initiative to open the box to see the money in it.

"The third son is a scholar." She said, "It's better to be a businessman. The old man spends a lot of money."

Lu Yizhi was not as distraught as he was when he left that day, and he regained his handsome demeanor, but there was no breeze-like smile on his face.

Facing this maid who didn't hide her attitude, he didn't react at all, he just looked at Qixing who walked in.

"I've made almost all my inquiries," he said. "There's only one thing I want to ask you to confirm."

Qi Xing sat down and hummed: "My lord, please sit down and ask."

Lu Yizhi didn't sit down: "Ning Li's house was ransacked, is it also related to you?"

Qixing looked at him and smiled: "I just said that the third son is smart, you can find out what others know, and you can also find out what others don't."

It really was her. Although I had guessed it, but I really heard it, Lu Yizhi couldn't help being a little dazed.

How can this be?

"How did you do it?" he couldn't help asking.

Qi Xing said oh, and picked up the fragrant tea in front of him: "You can do it once you die once."
