Chapter 616: The Lady and the Thief

Huh?" Chunxiao hurriedly leaned most of her body out of the window to see the wheels of the carriage.

After looking at it for a long time, she turned back to He Linwan with an inexplicable face and said, "Girl, there is a lot of mud on the wheels, but it only rained heavily last night, and the rain stopped in the morning, isn't it unusual to have mud on the wheels?"

"It's not unusual to go elsewhere and get so much mud, but it's not unusual to go to Baoan Temple. He Lin said later.

Last year, the big families in Beijing donated a large amount of silver, and the road out of the city to the Baoan Temple was repaired well, and the half-hour journey from the He family to the Baoan Temple would not encounter difficult mud ground, and the mud stained on the wheels of their carriage was black and brown, and the road outside the city and around the Baoan Temple was mostly red soil, with Kou Xian's carefulness, he could naturally see that something was wrong.

Chunxiao hurriedly sat back and asked nervously, "Then what should I do? Will the people from the Criminal Prison Department trouble us?"

He Linwan didn't speak, she herself was not afraid of trouble, as for whether Kou Xian would follow her to find out about the Zhao family's brothers and sisters, she was not too worried, there were many fertile farms outside the city that had such black soil, and Zhao Qingqing's identity on her face would not be a problem, but she still had to send someone to say hello to Zhao Qingqing just in case.

What made He Linwan care was why Kou Xian paid so much attention to her carriage? After knowing that her father was He Guanglie, and with Yuan gradually guaranteeing it, Kou Xian still repeatedly tried to interrogate, was there anything she ignored? After all, Kou Xian was never a person without a purpose.

Because of this doubt, she didn't stop Hegui at that time, and deliberately sold a flaw, just to see what kind of medicine was sold in Kou Xian's old fox gourd.

After He Linwan returned to He's house, he didn't rush to call the fox over, but waited.

Sure enough, in less than half an hour, she waited for Yuan Gradual.

"He Mian is not here, it is really inconvenient for me to come to your house, I can only say that my grandmother asked me to come to see Mrs. Chengenhou. Yuan gradually complained as soon as he came in.

The best relationship between the He family and Yuan gradually is He Linwan's third brother He Mian, last year Du went to visit the uncle He Guangyao who took office in the field, and brought the demon king He Mian with him, He Guangyao took the test of He Mian's homework on a whim, and found that this kid didn't know about three questions, and he read all the books in the dog's stomach. was so angry that He Guangyao immediately detained He Mian, saying that it was a loving mother who was a loser, and let him stay in the Hou Mansion to live a life, I am afraid that he will not be able to make a living.

Later, He Lan got married, He Mian looked for an opportunity to come back once, and specially came to He Linwan, saying that he wanted to take her to play all over the capital as before, but before he could fulfill his promise, he was slipped away by He Guangyaoti. Before leaving, He Mian hugged the big pillar in the front yard and cried for his father and mother, which made the listeners sad and the listeners wept, in order to let his grandmother and mother hear the movement and save him.

Du was reluctant to have a son, but Du was stopped by Wei, and as a result, He Mian only ushered in a merciless fat beating from He Guangyao. He Guangyao is actually a loving father, if he can't do it, he will try not to do it, who let He Mian's kid cry and shout something, "Dad, you didn't use your own studies when you were young, and you didn't even get a decent reputation, and now you will only force your son to work hard, what are you talking about? Don't do to others what you don't want to do to others, have you learned it before?"

He Linwan couldn't help but smile when he thought of the third brother of the He family. But after laughing, I thought of Third Brother Yang again, and my smile was retracted.

Yuan gradually saw her like this, thinking that it was because of what happened at the city gate before, so he said, "I was just frightened by Kou Xian's old Wang Ba, right?"

He Linwan said: "I'm so frightened that I wonder why this Kou Gonggong is like this." ”

Yuan gradually glanced at He Linwan and scratched his head, not knowing whether to ask or not.

He Linwan smiled, "Is it because we lied to him and said that we went to Baoan Temple?"

Yuan gradually was a little surprised and nodded, "Yes." Where have you been, and why are you lying to him?"

He Linwan thought for a while, and said apologetically to Yuan Yan: "It's inconvenient for me to say where I went, it's for some private matters, but my departure from the city has nothing to do with Grandpa Kou's closing of the city gate today, and the people he wants to arrest." ”

Yuan gradually saw that He Linwan refused to speak, nor was he angry, who didn't have a few little secrets that he didn't want to be known when he was young? He was not He Linwan's close friend, so the girl naturally refused to tell him.

"Okay. Yuan gradually scratched his chin and said to He Linwan, "But it's not all because you lied to him, and then he went to the city gate to ask the guards, which ladies went out of the city today, and when did they come back." ”

He Linwan was a little surprised, "He's checking out the female relatives who went out of the city today?"

"He is not looking for ordinary female dependents, but a lady with a father and brother serving in the court!" Yuan gradually said this, very dissatisfied, and couldn't help but complain, "There are so many cars and horses coming and going at this city gate in the morning, where do the guards remember everything? If people don't want to make a noise, they won't report to their homes! The result is good, he got all my people to the criminal prison department for interrogation! Can the criminal prison department enter casually? My little brothers are not allowed to peel off their skin as soon as they enter?" Before I came to you, I sent someone to find Deputy Commander Cheng, who was on an errand in front of the emperor today, to see if I could find an opportunity to intercede with Your Majesty. Hey, it's not a good thing to get involved with the prison department!"

He Linwan said curiously: "Didn't you say that this time I was chasing the assassin who assassinated Master Fan? What does it have to do with the lady in Beijing?"

Yuan gradually hesitated for a while when he heard this, and saw that He Linwan was really curious, so he said vaguely: "It seems that the thief hid in a lady's carriage this time and entered the city." ”

He Linwan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "What is the relationship between this lady and that person, so that she is willing to take such a big risk to help a fugitive?"

Yuan gradually had a vicissitudes of life on his face, "What else can it be because of? ”

He Linwan smiled.

At this time, the porter came over with a man dressed in the uniform of the forbidden army, and the forbidden army did not wait for the porter to report, and shouted to Yuan from afar through the door outside: "Boss!

He Lin didn't take Yuan Yan to his courtyard in the evening, but in the Mingshan Hall where the Wei family handles affairs and receives foreign guests on weekdays, this place is quiet and there are no others, it is very suitable to talk, and it will not cause gossip.

Yuan gradually got up angrily and walked towards the forbidden army, "Kou Xian, this old bastard! ”

The young forbidden army hurriedly persuaded, "The deputy commander told you not to get excited, he will continue to maneuver in the palace, and ask us to find a way to find out all the carriages that left the city gate today, so that there is no reason for the Punishment Division to detain our people." ”
