Chapter 121

"My subordinates learned from Murong Cheng, Marquis of Dingbei, that the young master Jia Ming had no choice but to stop the business here because of his mother's critical illness. He sold the garden and went home to honor his filial piety."

The man in black told the bronze-faced man one by one based on the information he obtained from the investigation.

"When did this happen? When did the Marquis of Dingbei take over that garden?"

Bronze-faced people need to know the exact handover procedures.

Only then can he be sure that the previous young master Jia Ming is the owner of Xiaoyao Villa.

"Returning to the master, the Marquis of Dingbei took over the garden a month ago."

The man in black didn't dare to hide anything, and told the man in bronze what he knew.

Who knew that the bronze-masked man's face was livid and said: "Impossible, how could it be a month ago, no more than five days at most, and no more than five days at most for the Marquis of Dingbei to take over the garden."

After finally getting a clue, is it going to disappear without a trace again here?
"But the record in the government office is indeed a month ago, and the time when Dingbei Hou handed over and signed the contract with that young master Jia Ming was exactly one month ago."

"Are you sure you read it right?"

"This subordinate is definitely not mistaken, and this subordinate even asked Dingbeihou himself, and he told this subordinate. He said that the owner of this garden had already sold this garden to him a month ago. Subordinate Xia felt that there was no need for Dingbeihou to lie, and Dingbeihou had no reason to lie about this matter.

"What's more, I asked the neighbors around, and they all said that Marquis Ding Bei came here three months ago, and they have been asking everywhere about the owner of this garden. After finally waiting for the owner to come a month ago, they all Knowing that the young master's mother is seriously ill and needs to go back in a hurry, that's why Dingbeihou was able to buy this garden as he wished."

When the man in black said this, the man with the bronze mask felt that he had just grasped the clue in his palm, felt that he had checked the right direction, and felt confused again.

Is this leisurely residence the same as Xiaoyao Shanzhuang, isn't it?

The bronze-masked man wanted to ask this question very much, so he retreated from the left and right, and entered the secret passage alone.

He went to see the seriously injured subordinate, the black-clothed woman Ru Ge who he sent to work as a spy.

"Master, is it over?"

Na Ruge supported the wound, stood up reluctantly, and asked the bronze-masked man.

"Ruge, according to the topographical map you provided, we found that place. But that place has changed people a month ago. The new owner is Murong City, Marquis of Dingbei."

The bronze-faced man feels that he has been frustrated recently, which makes him a little depressed.

Na Ruge couldn't believe it, how could things turn out like this?

Then, she argued: "Master, the topographic map that Ruge got is from Xiaoyao Villa. There is nothing wrong with it. This is what Mo Yang told me personally. There is no mistake, master."

"Ruge, the facts tell us that the topographic map is fake. If the topographic map is true, it will never take more than five days for the Marquis of Dingbei to take over the garden. It is impossible for him to take over the garden a month ago. gone."

"You should know that a month ago, you had just entered the Red Sleeve Courtyard. At that time, if the Idle House was the Xiaoyao Villa, how could it be possible for you to change the owner."

"If you think about it carefully, the answer is already obvious, that is, the topographic map is fake, and we have never found the real Xiaoyaoshanzhuang."

"No, Mo Yang won't lie to me. He doesn't look like he's lying to me. He said that he can pick up my younger sister to Xiaoyao Shanzhuang soon."

She does not admit that her mission has failed.

She didn't think that honest brother would deceive her own sister.

She didn't think that Mo Yang had such scheming.

"So Ruge, can you tell me what that Mo Yang looks like? Have you seen his real face?"

If there was a portrait of Mo Yang, they would have sent someone to track him down, couldn't they?

Wouldn't it be easy to find Xiaoyao Villa through Mo Yang?
But even in front of his own sister, Mo Yang never showed his true face, did he?
At this point, Ruge had to admit that she had never seen Mo Yang's true face.

But she could see that this brother was very kind to her sister.

She trusts her eyes, it can't be wrong.

But in fact, things turned out like this, and even she began to doubt it. Is it her illusion?
Was she really wrong?

That Mo Yang was testing her at that time, wasn't he sincere at all?

Thinking of this, Ruge knelt down towards the bronze-masked man while supporting his injuries.

"Master, Ruge was careless. Ruge was incompetent and let master down."

Up to this point, Ruge had to admit that she had made a mistake in her judgment, so that she was fooled by Mo Yang.

In fact, in the final analysis, she was also aware of it.

But she really didn't know where Mo Yang lied to her.

When she thought of this, she inexplicably thought of the masked woman in purple who was chasing her endlessly.

Those cold eyes were full of murderous intent.

When that woman shot at her, she said a word, she said she was not Mo Yang's sister.

Yes, that's what she said at the time.

The funny thing is, she thought she really got the topographic map of Xiaoyao Mountain Villa, that's why that woman chased after her and insisted on killing her.

I think it was because her identity as a spy made that woman angry at the time, and she came to clean her up.

Instead of tracking down some topographic map, it should be like this.

Ruge, who had figured it out, felt even more shameless to face his master, and drew out his dagger, so he had to apologize with death.

bump--

Of course, Ru Ge did not succeed in committing suicide.

The bronze-masked man raised his hand and swung the dagger away.

The dagger fell smoothly and hit the ground, making a crisp sound.

"Ruge, what are you doing?"

"The subordinate is incompetent and has shamed the master. The subordinate decided to apologize with death."

"Ruge, death is an easy thing, but living is not easy. Remember my words, it doesn't matter if you fail, as long as you can remember the lesson of this time, and don't underestimate everyone in the future, then it is also considered a You have benefited a lot from this matter. Rest well, and I will send you another mission when you recover from your injury."

Right now he needs manpower to handle things, and there are not many subordinates like Ruge.

He couldn't let Ru Ge commit suicide because of the failure of this mission, it's better to let her make up for her mistakes and make meritorious deeds.

After listening to the bronze-masked man's advice, Na Ruge dispelled the thought of apologizing with death.

"Yes, Ruge understands what master means. Next time Ruge will be more cautious and careful, and will never let master down again."

"En." The bronze-masked man responded lightly.

Then he raised Ru Ge with one hand, raised her chin with his fingers, and pressed a kiss on her lips.

"Do better in the future."

After speaking, the bronze-masked man walked out of the secret passage.

Ruge stayed where she was, still reminiscing about the master's breath on her lips.

Touching the corner of her lips, she smiled sweetly.

Master, for master, no matter what happens, Ru Ge will not hesitate to die, this is Ru Ge's promise.

Looking at the back of the bronze-masked man going away, Ru Ge secretly swears in his heart.

However, here it can be said that it has returned without success.

As for An Qingran, he knew for sure that the other party had made a fool of himself.

But what she didn't understand was why Murong Cheng, Marquis of Dingbei, would help her?

Although she left those pills for him before she left for his mother, it's not worth it for him.

Doesn't Marquis Dingbei know that if she changed hands of the garden, if the other party came to investigate, would he be in trouble?

If the other party guessed that Dingbeihou was the master behind Xiaoyao Villa, wouldn't he hate An Qingran to death?
But even An Qingran didn't know about this, and the other party would never doubt that Murong Cheng, Marquis of Dingbei, belonged to the owner of Xiaoyao Villa, not even the slightest doubt.

If An Qingran knew this, maybe she wouldn't feel sorry for Dingbeihou.

And precisely because An Qingran didn't know this, An Qingran was confused when he got the news.

"Miss, what's bothering you?"

Dongzhi came in and put down the snacks.

Seeing An Qingran frowning, looking puzzled, she asked.

"It's nothing." If you can't figure it out, An Qingran simply doesn't think about it.

Anyway, it's not hostile.

But she owed Dingbeihou this favor, and she would find a way to repay it.

If he hadn't changed the time this time, I'm afraid there would be follow-up troubles.

But his move saved her a lot of trouble.

In this way, she should thank him. Thinking of his poor mother, An Qingran has an idea.

"Dong Lan, go to Huichun Hall tomorrow and instruct Shopkeeper Liu to leave the pills that the old man takes for Beihou. From now on, whenever his mansion sends people to buy them, they will sell them whatever pills they need. .do you understand?"

Generally, you need to queue up to buy the pills from Huichuntang, and you won’t be able to grab them if you are late.

An Qingran offered the convenience of Marquis Dingbei, which can be regarded as repaying his favor.

"Yes, Miss, Dong Lan will go there tomorrow, and I will definitely let shopkeeper Liu write it down."

Dong Lan nodded in agreement, and An Qingran asked about Yun Qing's injury.

"By the way, is Yun Qing feeling better now?"

"Miss, don't worry, with Donglan in my care, there's no way something will happen to Yun Qing. She's doing very well, the wound is completely fine, and the stitches can be removed tomorrow."

"That's good. What about Yunfei? Dongzhi, did you send her the ointment to remove the scars on time? I said that this girl's family can't leave scars."

"Otherwise Yun Fei will not be able to marry in the future, and she will have to blame me, the master, for the rest of her life."

Naturally, An Qingran also asked about Yunfei's recent situation.

Dongzhi replied of course, Yun Fei sent it regularly, there was no problem, so An Qingran didn't have to worry about it.

On the other hand, on the side of Shizi, the young lady is not around these days, but he sends people to watch every day.

Now that the young lady has returned to Beijing, shouldn't she also send a message to Shizi?
