Chapter 67

This news did not make Lu Chengfeng lose his composure.

Her gaze was as sharp as an eagle's, and she quietly stared out of the hall. The snowflakes were floating in the sky and the earth, obviously there was no way back, but there seemed to be a place to settle.

Lu Chengfeng hesitated for a moment.

It's strange that my mother didn't like her since she was a child. She liked the eldest sister, Jinnian, and even the concubine, but she rarely smiled at her.

mother.

She repeatedly dissected this word and analyzed it stroke by stroke, but her heart became colder and colder.

Han Shushan is still waiting for her answer.

Lu Chengfeng felt cold all over his body: "I will investigate what you said today."

Han Shushan said: "...the flow fairy grass?"

Lu Chengfeng said lightly, "When did I promise to give it to you?"

Han Shushan's eyes were as cold as frost and snow: "Are you kidding me?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "So what if I play tricks on you?"

Han Shushan gritted his teeth: "What exactly do you want?"

Lu Chengfeng had put away all her emotions, and she turned back into that impeccable person, with a casual smile: "What should I do? This is a good question, and I haven't thought of it yet."

Han Shushan looked straight at him coldly.

Lu Chengfeng smiled calmly: "Do something for me first. Xie Cen's husband, Ji Li, now lives outside the suburbs of Beijing. I want his ins and outs, the purpose of coming to Beijing, and the people behind him."

Han Shushan frowned: "Since he is Xie Cen's teacher, isn't he from Xie's family?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "If you're from the Xie family, why should I let you go this far?"

Lu Chengfeng stood up with a smile: "Since you came to the door, you should know what to do. After you show enough sincerity, then we will sit down and have a good talk about the medicine strain."

Lu Chengfeng made up his mind that he needed this medicine, and he searched for it according to Han Shushan's methods for many years but found nothing, so he couldn't easily give him this fairy grass. It is Lu Chengfeng's consistent aim to make the best use of everything.

Knowing this, Han Shushan was forced to bow his head.

After Han Shushan went out, Lu Chengfeng stood alone in the hall for a long time, until behind Qingfeng called her with a worried tone: "...Master."

He waited by the side the whole time, completely listening to the conversation between the two.

Lu Chengfeng turned around as if waking up from a dream, with an indifferent expression on his face: "The new year is coming soon, and there will be many wars in Subei in the spring of the next year. When the chaos returns, the emperor will definitely not keep me in Yanjing again. You want to go back, but you can't sit still."

Qingfeng understood, and said: "I'll go back first and find out about Subei's current situation."

Lu Chengfeng nodded: "Not only to check, but also to check clearly. Now Subei's military discipline is chaotic, and the five cities are doing their own things. If this continues, a bunch of wolf ambitions will be raised, and the government and the public are now muddy. I'm afraid someone will Move the mind of rebellion."

Qing Feng frowned and said: "I'll leave immediately."

Lu Chengfeng said: "Don't worry, wait until the snow stops before leaving."

Qing Feng nodded, and took down two cups of cold tea.

Lu Chengfeng turned around the wall of the hall, and after one wall, Xie Jiuxiao stood at the door of the back hall with a confused expression.

The sound of wind and snow outside the hall covered his footsteps, and he didn't know when he came over.

Lu Chengfeng said, "Isn't it cold?"

Xie Jiuxiao didn't wear a cloak, but only wore a thin white robe, with exquisite stitching on the dark pattern on the surface, and he always used this unobtrusive color.

Xie Jiuxiao said, "It's not cold."

He obviously heard it, but he didn't know how much Lu Chengfeng heard: "Go first."

Xie Jiuxiao followed Lu Chengfeng into the room.

Lu Chengfeng sat by the stove, it wasn't cold in the room, she stretched out her hand to warm the fire, and said, "Sit here, I have something to say."

Xie Jiuxiao sat down beside her.

Lu Chengfeng deliberated for a while before he said unhurriedly, "Tell me what you heard first, Ji Li."

Lu Chengfeng's eyes fell on the burning coals: "Speaking of this person, I have to mention the account book of the Fan family back then. You are smart, even if you were not sure at the beginning, you should have guessed when Fan Jie compromised with me later."

Xie Jiuxiao said without emotion: "The account book of the Fan family is in your hands."

Lu Chengfeng said: "I was able to get this ledger back then. Speaking of it, it has something to do with your husband Ji Li. He is also looking for this ledger, but he is a commoner. What does he need this ledger for? It's nothing more than There is someone behind it."

Lu Chengfeng smiled slightly, his eyes turned cold: "Or, he wants to drag Xie Fan and his family into trouble together."

Xie Jiuxiao's jaw tightened: "Yes. Even Han Shushan thinks that since Ji Li is my husband, he is probably a member of the Xie family. Even if he is not, if the account book is found from the Xie mansion, the Xie family will not be able to argue with it. Okay. Strategies, good means!"

Lu Chengfeng said: "It's a pity that I didn't get what I wanted, and the person behind this hides very deeply. Since Fan Jie was promoted, he has not been moved. We need to find him. Instead of us trying to scare the snake, it is better to let Han Shushan come. I have been in Jinyiwei for many years, if you really check a person's family background, you can do it more easily than me."

Xie Jiuxiao slowly showed sharp eyes.

Lu Chengfeng seemed to be getting more comfortable, she withdrew her hand and leaned back in the chair, her usual posture, her natural arrogance, with the laxity of controlling everything in her hands: "Let's talk about something else."

Xie Jiuxiao looked up at her.

"You and your brother, what's going on?"

Xie Jiuxiao pursed her lips lightly, not surprised that she was so straightforward, and said: "He is right, my elder brother and I are not from the same mother. My elder brother was brought home by my father when I was born. At that time he My mother was seriously ill and was unable to take care of my eldest brother anymore, because of this, my father was severely punished by my grandfather, at that time, my mother had just given birth to me, and after hearing about it, I could only be forced to accept it, but finally died of depression.”

Xie Jiuxiao hadn't thought about this matter for a long time, but if he didn't say no today, he unconsciously lowered his head: "...Because of this matter, grandfather and father quarreled for many days, and finally father stayed away from Yanjing, and he never came back until today." Take a trip home."

Lu Chengfeng didn't expect his background to be like this, so he remained silent for a while.

Xie Jiuxiao was silent for a while, then said in a low voice: "...Is there anything else I want to ask?"

Lu Chengfeng said, "What else do you want me to ask?"

Xie Jiuxiao gritted his teeth: "You mentioned Ji Li and Fan's family, and Han Shushan also mentioned me? Why didn't you ask me?"

"...Do you think it doesn't matter?"

Lu Chengfeng looked a little complicated and raised his head.

Xie Jiuxiao's eyes turned red instantly after seeing her, feeling a little aggrieved.

Lu Chengfeng: "..."

She didn't intend to ask, there was no other reason, but she thought it was unnecessary, really unnecessary, Xie Jiuxiao did what she said, if all this was really just to use her, then it would be too generous.

The dignified young master of the No. [-] family in Yanjing, who was held in the palm of his hand since he was a child, betrayed his appearance. This sounds really outrageous.What's more, Lu Chengfeng also knew him well, this guy is not someone who can condescend and compromise.

Lu Chengfeng sighed, and said helplessly: "...you really know how to find a way to cure me now."

She paused for a moment, then continued: "If you don't ask you, of course I believe you, not to mention... Even if I take advantage of it, I am willing. Why are you wronged?"

"I've never thought about it that way." Xie Jiuxiao said angrily, "...he spouted blood!"

Lu Chengfeng's eyes were deep, he pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "Compared with this, I want to ask you another thing."

Xie Jiuxiao's red has long been coaxed back by her two words, "What?"

Lu Chengfeng looked at him fixedly, showing a trace of seriousness: "Han Shushan said that you are the direct descendant of the Xie family, that is to say, you are the head of the Xie family. You should also know that I will leave sooner or later."

Xie Jiuxiao understood, but hadn't figured out how to answer.

Lu Chengfeng said: "You can really let go of everything about the Xie family now, it's true that the Xie family is being targeted now, but your elder brother's move is a clear attitude, and you want to retreat to protect the family. And it can’t be done again, your eldest brother has already retreated to this level, if the emperor pesters you again, I’m afraid everyone will know about it. The Xie family has a deep foundation, and it’s only a matter of time before the respite returns to glory.”

Lu Chengfeng wanted to take Xie Jiuxiao away, but he also wanted to keep him. Everything in Subei was full of unknowns. She was now considered poor and white, so what could she do to support this pampered person?

Hey... Lu Chengfeng sighed in confusion, but she felt that it was so, she finally had some empathy for why some people would spend a lot of money for a beauty.

And... is Xie Jiuxiao really willing to give up all of this?

Xie Jiuxiao said: "Eldest brother is not a direct descendant, but he is also the blood of the Xie family. Eldest brother is smart and capable, and the Xie family will surely survive for a long time in his hands. Why do I need these, and I don't want them."

His eyes were extremely hot, like a hot summer sun, with the most passionate feelings of a young man: "I want to go with you, I want to see the moon in Subei again, I just want you to see me when you turn around. "

He was extremely sincere, and his eyes were extremely sticky, as if he wanted to treat himself as something to be hung on Lu Chengfeng.

Lu Chengfeng inexplicably felt that his throat was dry and tight, which was an extremely strange desire.

But in the end she held back, just smiled and said, "I see."

Xie Jiuxiao looked at her.

understood?
No, how did she know that she was about to be overjoyed.
