you touched my years

Chapter 234 Peach Wood Hairpin

"Jiu'er really doesn't need my company?" Qiu Zeran looked at the beautiful woman who was ready to go, a little depressed. This was the first time Wen Jiu directly refused his company and wanted to act alone, but he glanced at Xingyue behind her, There was a kind of warning and oppression in the eyes, which made Xingyue tremble unnaturally.

"Just go to the old house to get some things. We will be leaving in a few days. By the way, see if there is any news from Lao Zhou."

"So, okay, I'll pick you up later."

……

"My lord, there have been some changes in the Ji family recently. So far, the third wave of mercenaries has arrived at the villa on the outskirts of the Ji family." An Yi reported the latest information he got.

"Continue to monitor, and report any changes in time."

"Yes"

Dong Xing looked at the few people in the room without knowing why and asked: "Hey, the total number of people brought in from abroad by these three families is nearly 100 people. What are they going to do?"

"It should also be related to the treasure of the Donglai Kingdom. They are planning to join hands with the three to search for the treasure of the Donglai Kingdom?" Yan Cheng said seriously this time.

"It's possible, but how do they know where the Donglai Kingdom is? Don't forget, so far, the four treasure maps of the Donglai Kingdom are in our hands, but not everyone knows this news. That Miss Liu just handed over the last treasure map yesterday."

Zhuo Kai also had doubts on his face at the moment, after all, all these things seemed to be getting more and more chaotic and weird.

"Feng Lie, do you have any clues about what I asked you to investigate?" Chou Zeran, who was sitting by the side, asked Feng Lie who was beside him.

"My lord, according to what you said, so far, no one has been found who is proficient in disguise. However, the current plastic surgery technology is so perfect that it is very possible to have the same person after plastic surgery. However, this plastic surgery technology No matter how it is adjusted, everyone's ears will not change anyway."

"Feng Lie, what do you mean, if you want to judge whether a person has undergone plastic surgery, you only need to compare her ears before and after?"

"Yes, that's what it means."

"Well, I got it. Three days later we are going to Donglai Country. Dong Xing and Yan Cheng will stay behind, Feng Lie and Zhuo Kai will follow. As for the three families, we will start the second plan. If there is any change, we will fully acquire all the properties of the three companies. If there is resistance..."

……

Because of her departure, the courtyard was a little bit depressed. Although many flowers were moved away, there were still many left behind, which became more and more sluggish.

"But it's been more than January, and the depression here is so severe. Everything in the world is like this. If you don't take good care of it, it's always so easy to disappear from the public."

"If Miss likes it, Xingyue will ask someone to move them all away in the afternoon." Xingyue looked at the people standing aside staring at these withered bouquets and muttering to themselves, and couldn't help asking, whether it was to please, Or what, she doesn't like to see such a young lady standing with a trace of loneliness.

"No need, I didn't take them away at the beginning, what's the use of taking them away now?"

Her study room is connected to her bedroom, but almost no one knows about it except Lao Zhou and Man Ye, and Xingyue never enters her bedroom without her permission, and Dahei is always guarding her, so her room and study room It is a forbidden place in the courtyard.

"Wait for me at the door."

Xingyue looked at the person who walked into the study, her eyes were dim, the young lady was still so wary of her, but she had already seen almost everything in the study, there was nothing special, the young lady was reluctant or why?

After Liu Xiaoyu entered the study, she walked into the bedroom through the secret door behind the bookshelf. She came here for nothing but one thing, and took out a wooden hairpin from the bottom of her jewelry box.

The whole body is dark red, with wavy patterns. It is much heavier than it looks when held in the hand. The style is simple, but it is the most common flowing cloud pattern. This hairpin is carved from a thousand-year-old peach wood. I am afraid it is the only one in the world. Yes, back then she was weak and heavy, and Liu Mancang really loved her, and the things he gave her were not only high-quality goods, but also had special meanings.

Take this thousand-year-old mahogany hairpin as an example. Peach wood wards off evil spirits, and the thousand-year-old mahogany is a fine product for suppressing evil and avoiding poison. Therefore, she has been wearing it for a long time. It was not until one accident after another that she put it on. A mahogany hairpin is placed at the bottom of the jewelry box.

This mahogany hairpin has a secret that even Liu Mancang doesn't know, and she came to the old house to get this mahogany hairpin for this secret.

When she went out today, her hair was loose. Now she tied her hair up with a dark red hairpin. With the weather getting hotter, there was nothing unusual about her attire.

He walked out of the room slowly, passed through the study room, pretended to take two books and walked to the courtyard.

"Miss, let me get it. I have seen it just now. There is nothing else in Lao Zhou's room."

"Well, I see, you send this letter to uncle."

Liu Xiaoyu handed Xingyue a letter she had prepared before, and glanced at her vaguely. This letter was written on purpose by her with only one purpose, which was to send Xingyue away, not just She wanted Xingyue to stay by Uncle's side even more. As for whether Uncle would leave Xingyue behind, she was not worried, but for Uncle, knowing the whereabouts of Yincun was the most important thing. Yes, he can destroy everything else that hinders him with his own hands.

As for Xingyue's safety, she wasn't worried. For her, she didn't need to have someone by her side who didn't even know who her master was, and Man Ye wouldn't really want Xingyue's life. Xingyue's use value is still great, because Xingyue is simple enough, simple can be described as stupid, she is too obedient, she should be too obedient to Man Ye's words, so for a subordinate who is easy to grasp, she is still a foolish loyal Liu Mancang's subordinate, no matter what, would not kill her.

Xingyue accepted the letters without any doubts, and put them in her arms very carefully. Liu Xiaoyu glanced at them, but did not speak, and looked thoughtfully at the high wall on one side.

"Is there no one next door? It sounds quiet."

Xingyue glanced at the towering wall, with a hint of avoidance in her eyes that no one noticed, and said in a low voice: "It should be moved away, and I haven't heard any movement here for a long time, it should be an investment businessman, so Didn't stay here long."

"Businessman?" Liu Xiaoyu turned to look at Xingyue with some doubts, because this answer is not what Xingyue should say, not to mention that Qiu Zeran once said the real identity of the people here, even Xingyue shouldn't just find out Their identities are simple businessmen.

"Well, it should be a businessman. Many wealthy people buy these courtyard houses in Kyoto for appreciation. I think the owner next door also means the same thing."

Liu Xiaoyu lowered her head thoughtfully, at a place where Xingyue couldn't see, she said "oh" softly, and stopped saying anything more, walking away from Xingyue seemed to be the most correct decision she made ...
