Xia Yingchen looked out of the window, and said bitterly: "I'm afraid he pretended from the beginning to investigate the murderer who destroyed the village last night, but he was actually investigating the case of Aode's disappearance."

It was only then that Liu Sang realized that Xia Yingchen didn't believe that Jiang An's famous "Eagle Eyes" and Zhou's "Eagle Eyes" could misjudge someone, but in fact Jiang An really did not misjudge him.But in the end, even Jiang'an had to admit that he was wrong after being tested by the "True Xing Weitong Method".

But Xia Yingchen no longer believed in Jiang'an. After being unable to find any other more reasonable explanation, he decided that Jiang'an had ulterior motives. On the surface, he was investigating the case of exterminating the village last night, but in fact he was investigating her at all.

It's no wonder she had this illusion, it's just that this whole thing is too strange, with the eyesight of "Heavenly Arrested", she would mistake a teenage boy who is just learning kungfu as a "peerless master". Just kidding.So she would rather believe that Jiang An did it on purpose, without any purpose.

Xia Yingchen resentfully tossed the pear in his hand, brushed it, and the pear broke into more than 20 pieces, each of which was about the same size.Liu Sang sweated for a while, it seemed that the lady had lost her temper.

The broken pears fell on the plate, and Xia Yingchen carried them to the bedside expressionlessly: "Eat."

"Oh!" Liu Sang hurriedly squeezed pieces of pears and stuffed them into his mouth. Although eating pears lying down was really uncomfortable, but he was still obedient at this time...

……

On the second day, Xia Yingchen found a luxurious carriage and drove Liu Sang to Ningyun City together.

Although Liu Sang is only her husband in name only, deep down in her heart, she feels somewhat guilty towards this young man who is a few years younger than her.Because she felt that whether it was falling from a cliff, being looked down upon by others in Qingluan Mountain, or being deliberately targeted by "Heavenly Arrest", it was all her fault in the final analysis.

Because these things had nothing to do with him.

It is precisely because of such guilt that she is much gentler to Liu Sang.

Although Liu Sang also knows that this kind of tenderness has nothing to do with love itself, but anyway, this is also a kind of progress.

After driving for a few days, the carriage finally arrived at Ningyun City and headed for Hou Mansion.

At the corner near Hou's Mansion, Xia Yingchen suddenly said, "Stop."

The carriage stopped, Xia Yingchen lifted the curtains and looked outside.

Liu Sang also turned her head to see what she was looking at.

In the corner of the alley, sat a girl in shabby clothes.They had entered the city overnight, and the fog in the morning was relatively cool. The girl hugged a long object wrapped in cloth, whether it was a stick or something, and huddled there, cold and hungry.

Xia Yingchen sighed, couldn't bear it, and asked Xiaohuang to send her some silver.

Xiaohuang got off the carriage, and the carriage drove into the Hou's mansion. The mansion had already received the news, and everyone greeted them.

When Liu Sang got out of the car, seeing Xiao Zhu calling "Master Fu Ma", she ran over excitedly, but shook her head helplessly.I haven't seen her for a while, but this girl seems to have gotten a little fatter again. During the days when he was away, she definitely didn't go for gymnastics or running in the morning.

Tomorrow, I will re-torture... Cough, re-educate her.

Xia Yingchen told the servant that the county-affiliated horse was injured and should be taken care of carefully.When Xiaozhu heard this, she immediately became nervous.

Everyone was busy with themselves, but Xiaohuang came back and spread out the money: "Miss, she refuses to accept it."

Xia Yingchen was stunned: "You won't take it?" Xiaohuang said: "I woke her up and handed the silver to her. She didn't want it even if she died. I forced it, turned around and left, but she actually caught up and threw it back to me. .”

Xiaozhu said: "But the little girl at the door?"

Xiaohuang said: "It's that female beggar."

"She's not a beggar," Xiao Zhu said, "she's here to find Miss."

Xia Yingchen was even more astonished: "Looking for me?"

"The day after Miss left, she came to the mansion. She insisted on seeing Miss, but the guards yelled at her, but she just sat there," Xiaozhu said, "Later I told her that Miss had gone out, and then She has been waiting there. At the beginning, she ate a steamed bun and drank some cold water every day. Later, even the steamed bun had to be divided into two, and she ate half a day. Everyone thought she was a beggar at first, and sometimes gave her Some copper coins and food, but she never wanted it. I thought she was quite pitiful, so I asked her to live in the old woman's house behind the house and wait there, but she didn't, and just slept on the street like that, these two days She seems to have lost all the coins to buy steamed buns, and she hasn't eaten since the day before yesterday."

Liu Sang thought to herself, she is really a girl with a backbone, she would rather die than eat what she gave her?

Xia Yingchen frowned: "Do you know what she asked me for?"

Xiao Zhu shook her head: "She refuses to say."

Xia Yingchen pondered for a while, and said: "Bring her to see me." Xiaohuang obeyed the order and left.

Liu Sang's injury hasn't fully healed yet, he should have gone back to his room to rest, but he was quite curious about that girl who "won't eat what's coming" and couldn't help but wait here.

After a while, Xiaohuang brought the girl to her. She was barefoot and staggered when she walked, as if she would fall down at any moment. Although the clothes were made of coarse linen, they were already It was worn and mottled. If it was an ordinary rough coat, it would have been too worn out to wear.

She actually looked pretty, but she didn't know how long she had eaten, and she was weak and thin.Liu Sang thought to herself, if she gave Xiaozhu half of the nutrition, both of them would look better, and she couldn't help but lamented the injustice of fate in her heart. Seeing this girl, although she was suffering from hunger and cold, she had pretty features, and she was neither arrogant nor humble. She was born in a respectable family, but she couldn't even afford steamed buns, and Xiao Zhu, a maidservant, was well-raised for nothing. Sure enough, a maid from a rich family was better than a young lady from a poor family.

Xia Yingchen is sitting on a low couch, and the girl is sitting on the mat. This era still maintains many pre-Qin traditions. The so-called sitting upright is what later generations call "kneeling". .The girl knelt there, but her frail body was upright. Although Liu Sang felt that she was a bit strong, maybe she would fall if she pointed her with her fingers, but she had to secretly admire the girl's strong will.

Xia Yingchen asked softly, "What's your name?"

The girl's voice was weak but crisp: "Mo Mei."

Xia Yingchen said: "What do you want from me?"

Mo Mei said in a low voice: "I just want to ask, 'Lei Xia' Qin You had a sword fight with the princess a month ago, I wonder if the princess has seen her again since then?"

Xia Yingchen watched her coming, and slowly shook his head.

Disappointment appeared on Mo Mei's delicate face.

Xia Yingchen said: "You came to me for this matter?"

Mo Mei gritted her teeth: "I want to be a maid for the princess."

Xia Yingchen stared at her, as if she wanted to see through her: "What other conditions are there?"

Mo Mei shook her head: "As long as the princess gives me some simple food, it's fine."

Xia Yingchen was expressionless: "There are so many maids around me, I don't need other maids."

Mo Mei stood there in a daze, her face turned pale.
