Chapter 10 Faces
Qinyuan.

Xie Jiuxiao finished treating the wound, changed his clothes, and the medicine was ready. He drank the bowl of medicine under Xie Yunqian's watchful eyes.

Shisan came in from the outside to salute Xie Yunqian, and then said: "The horse management has been on leave for the past few days, and the people below who came up to him are dead."

Xie Yunqian pondered for a moment, with a puzzled look on his face: "Jiuxiao, don't you usually not believe in ghosts and gods? Before your sister-in-law said several times to take you to the temple to pray for blessings, you didn't go. Why did you go to Qingshan Temple on a whim yesterday?"

Thirteen's face froze, and he hesitated to raise his head to admit it, Xie Jiuxiao said: "I have nothing to do these days, I heard Xiuwen mentioned that the scenery of Qingshan Temple is good, I want to go out for an outing in spring, I never thought of encountering such a thing .”

Xie Jiuxiao thought for a moment, and then said: "Brother, did Jin Yiwei really do what happened yesterday?"

Xie Yunqian remembered what happened recently, snorted, and said: "I invited Fan Jie to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for a cup of tea yesterday morning. Some people were guilty of fearing that I might find something in the interrogation, so they actually targeted you! Those dogs in Jinyiwei really It's a mouthful of good teeth!"

Xie Jiuxiao knew that sooner or later Xie Yunqian would speak out for him, so he pondered slightly and said, "Brother, is something really going to happen to the Fan family?"

Xie Yunqian squinted his eyes and leaned back, looking a little tired, and said: "Sooner or later, the Fan family's movements are too big to cover up, and the account book has not been found yet, and Fan Jie knows this, so she took a chance to settle the account It's fine."

Xie Yunqian thought of the dirty relationship between Jin Yiwei and the Fan family, and his eyes were sharp: "I'm afraid someone is behind Han Shushan's orders, but if he dares to put his hand on your head, one day I will let him break an arm and have a long memory!"

He glanced at Xie Jiuxiao and asked, "Was it Lu Chengfeng who went with you yesterday?"

Xie Jiuxiao said, "Yes."

Thinking of that person, Xie Yunqian looked a little relieved, and said: "I didn't expect that she saved you, and it's not in vain for you to get him out of the Lefang Division through gossip."

Xie Jiuxiao poured tea to Xie Yunqian with one hand, and said with a smile: "I'm not talking about gossip, but my elder brother is tired, and those courtiers will probably go to the imperial court to sue you."

Xie Yunqian looked at the tea that Xie Jiuxiao had sold, smiled, and took it over and said, "Just sue. Fortunately, you are used to misbehavior. I used an excuse to say that you brought people to the garden to torture them every day. Turn around and say that I have indulged my brother too much..."

Xie Yunqian swallowed his tea: "Tsk... Let them take all the good and the bad."

Xie Jiuxiao snorted when he heard the words, his peach blossom eyes flashed with a dangerous look, and said: "If it were me, they would have to run so hard that they would not be able to step down!"

Xie Yunqian shook his head helplessly and smiled, put down his teacup and got up, said: "Okay, if you are injured, just rest for a few days, I have something else to do."

Xie Jiuxiao sent the man out, and when he came back, he called Shisan in and said, "The dead one should check his family and see who he has had contact with recently."

Thirteen knew Xie Jiuxiao, and he would not give up after suffering such a big humiliation, so he followed suit.

Xie Jiuxiao sat back in the chair, with a sneer on his face: "An arm? That's too cheap for him!"

Lu Chengfeng slept for a long time, and it was dark when she woke up. After dinner, she went for a walk around the viewing platform in the garden as usual. The night wind was blowing, and Wanjia Mars was far away. From here, she could just see the side door In one corner, a string of dazzling red flowers hangs on the tree.

Xie Jiuxiao was walking out of the room, and left Qinyuan without looking back.

Lu Chengfeng stepped down from the viewing platform, hesitated for a moment, and left the mansion through the side door, once he was acquainted, and soon he arrived at Lefangsi.

Seeing that it was dark, Fu Dan was pacing anxiously in the room, and when he was restless, the door creaked and was pushed open, and Lu Chengfeng quickly closed the door.

Seeing her, Dan Fu felt like seeing a savior: "You are finally here! Ji Li sent me a message in the morning!"

While talking, she took out a roll of notes: "He asked me to get the account book from Fan Shizhou's mouth."

"Account book?" Lu Chengfeng took the note and read it. The note indeed asked Fu Dan to find a way to set up the account book. She asked, "What account book?"

Fu Dan shook his head: "I don't know, but according to Ji Li, this ledger should be in Fan Shizhou's hands, even if it's not in his hands, he knows where it is."

Lu Chengfeng meditated for a moment, but did not answer immediately.

Now that she is trapped in Xie's residence, she has no news, and she can't get much information, but she has also heard about the Fan family. A few days ago, Fan Jie, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, suddenly fell ill and was bedridden for many days without getting better.

Lu Chengfeng thought about the news that Ji Li asked her to inquire about when he met Fu Dan last time, and now he is dragging on the account book again.

It seems that something big happened to the Fan family!

Lu Chengfeng looked at Fu Dan, squinted his eyes, and said, "If I get the ledger, I will help you get out of Lefang within five days!"

Vo Dan's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Fu Dan was always vaguely uneasy about being involved in the matter of entering Fan's house. Recently, the Fan's house has become very popular. I don't know if she will be involved.

Lu Chengfeng smiled slowly, appearing full of sincerity: "Of course it is true, I am now Master Xie's personal maid, even if he doesn't have the energy to take care of you, I know people in my garden these days, just ask them to help .”

Fu Dan thought that since he was a member of the Xie family, of course he could drag her out, and immediately responded: "Okay! It's a deal!"

The small buildings in the middle of the lake are dimly lit after nightfall.

Fan Shizhou was reeking of alcohol on the small couch, and was already a little tipsy.

He filled the wine glass, with a trace of depression and worry in his brows and eyes, and looked out of the door with drunken eyes. A pleasant bell rang, and the woman wrapped in a black cloak entered from outside the door.

Fu Dan took off his cloak, revealing a red gauze dress, looking up at the moment, he was full of charm: "Master Fan has been waiting for a long time."

Fan Shizhou was smoked by the wine, his heart and mouth felt a little dry when he saw this beauty, but he was not in a hurry: "You are here."

Fu Dan took off her shoes and socks and walked towards the person step by step. Following her movements, Fan Shizhou realized that there was a bell tied to each of Fu Dan's left and right feet, which was shaking. With a soft voice and a long tail, he called out: "Fan~Young Master..."

Every word is like scratching an itch on the heart.

Outside the window, Lu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows and stood a little further away. She looked up and looked around. The place and room were exactly the same as last time. Fu Dan personally said that the small building in the middle of the lake was Fan Shizhou's other residence.

Lu Chengfeng remembered that Xie Jiuxiao had had wine here before, so he was probably talking too fast that night, but since Xie Jiuxiao had eaten in this garden, what is his relationship with Fan Shizhou?

Fan Jie is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites is one of the cabinets. A minister's bastard and a grandson of the cabinet, no matter how you look at it, it should be Fan Shizhou rushing to curry favor with Xie Jiuxiao.But Xie Jiuxiao, although Lu Chengfeng didn't know him well, he didn't look like he would exchange cups with Fan Shizhou.

Is there any news that she doesn't know about?
There was a blending sound in the room.

Lu Chengfeng closed his eyes, the enthusiasm and humanity swayed in the night, the bright moon was cold and high-end, the moonlight poured down on her Tsing Yi like silver, Lu Chengfeng's expression was hidden in the night, and he listened quietly to the lively scene in the room.

The lights in this garden were dim, and there were tree pavilions, and it was impossible to see anything from a distance. The sound of watchman beating the gong could be heard from far away in the street, reminding Lu Chengfeng that it was already the third watch.

Lu Chengfeng waited a little impatiently. This feeling of being controlled by others made her extremely irritable and helpless. She could only secretly pray that Xie Jiuxiao would return to the garden tonight or even not, otherwise it would be really difficult for her to explain why she was not in the garden at midnight.

The room was opened, and Fu Dan was wearing a thin coat, showing her curvy waist. She was flushed, but she was very excited and pressed a book into Lu Chengfeng's hand in a low voice: "I really didn't expect that the account book would be It's in this house! I got the things! Don't forget what you promised me!"

Lu Chengfeng didn't expect it to be so smooth, he looked through it under the moonlight to confirm that it was indeed the book, put it in his arms, and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised!"

On the way back, a section of tail followed silently behind him.

Lu Chengfeng slowed down, pretending not to know, and turned into an alley calmly.

The man followed inside, but saw the woman leaning against the wall, looking at him with folded arms: "Your Excellency, will you say that this is passing by?"

The man pulled off his scarf and looked at her with a serious expression.

Lu Chengfeng narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Qingfeng."

"Qing Feng has met Second Miss!"
