Chapter 88: Chapter 88

"Are you from the house?"

"No, the little one has never seen such a young and beautiful sister in the mansion."

"Not from the house, what did you tell her?!"

The servant boy trembled again in fright and said: "That man said she is the god-sister of Mrs. Li's family."

Yan Kaiting pondered for a while, looked at Dieyi and said: "Dieyi, you can go and see Li Liang's wife later, and ask her if there are any brothers and sisters who are friends with her, the kind that often walk around."

"Hey, don't worry, Master, Dieyi is going now."

Yan Kaiting nodded, thinking that the one who could convince Li Liang immediately must be someone he knew well.

After the questioning, Yan opened the court and waved the little servant boy to go down. The little servant boy hurriedly saluted as if he had been pardoned, and ran out of the inner courtyard as if fleeing.

Li Liang's home is in an alley on the West Street of Yujing City not far from Yan's Mansion. Over the years, Li Liang worked as a errand for Yan's family and earned a lot of money, enough to buy a property on this bustling street. Dieyi led a few servants to find Li Liang's house, only to find that it was a nice two-story building.

The lady of the Li family greeted Dieyi with tears on her face, and told all the sisters and sisters who were close to her, and finally asked: "Miss Dieyi, what happened to Li Liang? You don't have to hide it from me." No matter how much Master Yan has used Li Liang over the years, he would have asked him to say hello to us, but now Master Yan probably doesn't know what happened to Li Liang, so you just came to ask me."

As he spoke, he cried out again.

Dieyi couldn't talk for a while, and just said: "Don't you know Master Yan yet? Li Liang is someone he has to use. If something happens, Master Yan will not ignore it. Don't worry, I will give it to you anyway." an account."

After finishing speaking, there were all kinds of comforting words. When he came out of Li Liang's small building, it was already dusk.

The night is thick and the moon is clear. Although it is almost early summer, the Snowy Courtyard is another scene, as if it is covered with snow, and the snow is fluttering. Walking in it, you don’t feel the bone-chilling chill, but you feel refreshed. It's like another world.

Yan opened the courtyard door and felt that there seemed to be a magic circle running inside. He was very honest this time, he did not go over the wall, knocked on the courtyard door, and walked into the courtyard when he heard "Come in", and found that there was ice and snow inside world.

Xia Pingsheng stood in the middle of the yard with his hands behind his back, looking at the fluttering snow, his eyes wandering to nowhere.

Yan Kaiting didn't know why Xia Pingsheng suddenly had the snowfall-like supernatural powers in the early summer night, he didn't ask any questions, just walked a few steps casually like a curious child, leaving a string of footprints on the snow.

Finally standing under a pine tree, he stretched out his hand to gently caress the icicle hanging between the pine leaves. Suddenly, a bone-chilling chill rushed into his body, making him shiver slightly.

"When the big formation is activated, you can't touch every plant or tree at will." Xia Pingsheng said plainly.

"What about mine? Can I touch mine at will?" Yan Kaiting turned around, with a puzzled expression in his eyes, which seemed to be questioning and questioning.

"From childhood to adulthood, there seems to be no one who can stay by my side for a long time." Yan Kaiting looked at Piaoxue and murmured. "He has all kinds of bad things. He can't learn literature and martial arts. He is very active in trying to figure out what he wants to do. Unfortunately, the skylark doesn't have great ambitions. In fact, he tried everything possible to find me something, no matter whether it is dead or alive, it is not good. my interests."

Xia Pingsheng looked at Yan Kaiting and said: "There is no distinction between high and low in a sincere heart."

Yan Kaiting smiled wryly and said: "Yes, many things will be rare only when they are gone."

"How are you going to handle it?"

"Just ask Master Xia not to interfere in this matter." Yan Kaiting bowed deeply to Xia Pingsheng. "I didn't understand your teaching until today. I may have few relatives in my life, so that I have become an obstacle to separation. In fact, I also have my own problems. I am obsessed with relatives, suspicious, hesitant, but I can't see clearly what relatives are. .Blood relatives are only part of it."

Xia Pingsheng said slowly: "If you think so, then do it like this."

Under the snow, the two of them didn't have much to say.Yan Kaiting's figure at this time was as lonely as the snow falling down.

The next day, Dieyi told Yan Kaiting all the questions she asked at Li's wife's side early in the morning, as well as some news about the follow-up inquiries.

"Master, Li Liang's lady said that there are no special people who go out with them often. If Li Liang also recognizes her, it may be a young lady from a silver shop under the Yan Mansion in the next street. They live close to each other and belong to the same mansion. There, there are some contacts. I took someone to identify him. That person is the distant cousin of the shopkeeper of the bank. She came here to seek refuge after something happened in her hometown, and she is also helping in the shop. She is waiting outside. How about now? See you?"

"Call her over."

Dieyi immediately turned around and called in a young woman with her own charm from the door.

As soon as the woman walked in, she quickly knelt down in front of Yan Kaiting, crying and crying: "Master Yan, I am wronged, I really didn't know that such a thing would happen."

Yan Kaiting sneered, and said: "What can you do wrong, isn't it you who spread the lie?"

"It's true that I passed it on. I was also greedy for a while. It's just that a person in charge of your house asked me to pass a message to the east gate, and he gave me 20 taels of silver. How could I expect such a thing to happen? Something happened to Li Liang!" As she spoke, the young woman began to sob again, "I was also blindfolded by the money at the time, I really didn't expect it."

"Hehe." Yan Kaiting laughed angrily, "Who told you what's wrong with Li Liang? He's been crying and crying since he came here. Could it be that you knew he was going to die?"

Hearing this, the woman's face turned pale, and she burst into tears again.

"I'm wronged, my little girl really doesn't know."

"I really don't know?" Yan Kaiting smiled and said, "Then tell me, which manager asked you to pass the message, or if you don't run away after the incident, stay there and wait for me to send someone to the door. Crawling who?"

The woman was stunned by the words, and said bravely: "Master Yan, you protect the people in your family, you can't blame it all on the slave family!"

"Oh?"

"The servant who is in charge is not familiar with the family, but I have seen him come to the shop a few times, and I only know that his surname is Meng, so you can just call him out and confront him!" the woman said confidently.

Meng Erya?Of course Meng Erya, who is in charge, is no longer in the Yan Mansion.

Yan Kaiting laughed angrily, such a clumsy technique was actually shown in front of him.He stretched his hand forward and grabbed a jade pendant from the woman's neck, and held it in his hand, "Then what is this? Hu Donglai's thing, tied around your neck, the relationship between you two So good?"

The young woman froze for a moment and was speechless for a moment.

After a while, she put away her pitiful appearance, raised her head to look at Yan Kaiting and shouted: "Hmph! What qualifications do you have to sit as the head of the family? With the blood of the Yan family, how can you compare to Hu Langjun?! Hu Langjun has done his best for this Yan family, why can't he preside over the craftsman's mansion!"

"Hehe, besides the wife of the Tu family, there are quite a lot of confidante friends surnamed Hu. It's a pity that it's not your turn to point fingers at my Yan family." Yan Kaiting sneered a few times and said, "You think someone will come to save you, but you still think After the incident is revealed, can you escape, or do you think I can't come back?"

Speaking of which, Yan Kaiting had no intention of waiting for an answer, and stretched out his hand to grab the young woman, strangled her by the throat, and lifted her up.The woman kicked her feet straight, her face turned purple, her eyeballs bulged out, and a magic weapon that she didn't have time to activate fell out of her loosened palm.

"Dieyi, turn your head."

Dieyi turned her head with a pale face, only to hear a muffled groan, and then the sound of falling to the ground.

Looking back, the young woman was no longer angry, and Yan Kaiting, who was sitting in the upper seat, looked ahead blankly, as if nothing had happened just now.

No matter how courageous "Master" Dieyi is, he has never seen a murder in court, and his face is pale.

Yan Kaiting raised his hand to take the magic weapon on the ground into his hand, looked at it, and said slowly: "I'm afraid this person is not a serious relative of the shopkeeper's family." He said slowly: "Send him to the silver shop, Let the shopkeeper think it over, and then come and give me an explanation. You go down first, I want to be alone."

At the same time, a distinguished guest came to Yan Mansion's hall for foreigners.

Lu Bozhong and several stewards were ushered to their seats by the governor, and after they were busy serving tea, Xia Pingsheng suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Boss Xia." Lu Bozhong bowed his hands to Xia Pingsheng first. After the contact the day before yesterday, he has restrained himself a lot now.

"Elder Lu, why are you here this time?" Xia Pingsheng asked straight to the point without being polite.

Lu Bozhong nodded, and said: "Naturally, you don't come to the door for anything. Lu came here this time because of the loss of goods in my sect. He said that he would give you and Yan Palace Master an explanation."

"That's very good, let's wait until Master Yan arrives." After speaking, Xia Pingsheng sat down on a chair opposite him, and slowly brought a cup of tea to his lips.

Even though Xia Pingsheng made it clear that he meant to be negligent, Lu Bozhong had no choice but to sit down resentfully and continue to drink tea.

After a long time, when Lu Bozhong was getting impatient, a scarlet voice floated in front of his eyes, and when he looked over, Yan Kaiting's figure appeared above the chief seat.

"Elder Lu, if you have anything to say, tell me quickly." Yan Kaiting supported his head, thinking about Li Liang's matter in his mind.

"Sure enough, Lord Yan is busy with official duties. He is a busy person. The old man didn't say much, just said a few words and left."

Lu Bozhong was obviously dissatisfied with Yan Kaiting's attitude, and said something eccentrically, but Yan Kaiting ignored him.

"I came here today, one is to inform you about the investigation of our Yanyue Sect's lost goods, and the other is to ask the two of you here for an explanation."

Lu Bozhong's first sentence was easy to understand, but the latter sentence made Yan Kaiting and Xia Pingsheng's expressions tremble slightly.

"Oh? How do you say that?" Yan Kaiting asked, and then looked at Xia Pingsheng who was sitting beside him. He had spoken so clearly that day, and Lu Bozhong still came to the door. It seemed that things had a new development.

Lu Bozhong chuckled twice, and said, "What do you mean? Then Lord Yan and Manager Xia, just listen to what I said."

"After I returned to the sect, I immediately started to investigate. The people who shipped the goods were all registered in the register. Which shipment and which people were clearly written. The people involved in the shipment, etc., were in charge of the warehouse. Those who are in charge of the mechanical work are the ones who follow the ship."

"It's indeed my sect's misfortune. I just thought it was a batch of ordinary cargo. I listened to other people's ideas and stole the beam. Not long after leaving the dock, the two ships exchanged personnel. The cargo ship changed its course. Send some unidentified boatmen to Huangquan Road."

Yan Kaiting sneered, and said: "I'm afraid that the people who went to the scene for the first time to investigate your ancestors also have some problems? It can't be seen that there is no cargo on the ship, and it can be said that they are inexperienced, and they didn't even notice that the ship was changed? "

This matter is obviously a nest case, Lu Bozhong's face turned black, he only explained the process in a few words, but he didn't want to make his family's ugliness too public.If it wasn't for the reason that he had to come, Lu Bozhong would not want to reveal the affairs of the sect to outsiders.

Yan Kaiting asked again, "I don't know if Elder Lu has any clues about that 'other'?"

Lu Bozhong snorted and said, "It's not just that he has looks, I know exactly who that person is!"

"Who?" Yan Kaiting pretended to be curious, but actually had some guesses.Of course, Lu Bozhong didn't come here to make good words, in order to give them an explanation, I am afraid that he still has something to do with Tiangong Kaiwu.
