Hearing this, Zhou Rushui stared at Wang Yuxi suspiciously, thinking that he would not be a cautious person who turned over old accounts, so he pointed to the shop not far away indifferently, and said without concealment: "Xu Jing, I naturally know, isn't it Liu Zheng's maternal uncle, this person is just a hawker, and the Xu family cloth shop is his." When she said this, her white and transparent little face was slightly raised, and her appearance was quite arrogant and contemptuous.

Seeing her like this, Wang Yuxi patted the top of her hair through the hood with a smile, her deep eyes condensed slightly, frowned, and shook her head meaningfully and said, "He is not a peddler." ”

As he spoke, his picturesque eyebrows were even sharper, and he looked at the Xu family's cloth shop and muttered, "This Xu Jing is quite interesting, but it seems that the family is mediocre from the outside, and there are only two cloth shops." But far away in Suiyang, there are 10,000 acres of farmland and several other villages. And these are not ancestral properties, all of them are earned by him alone. If his cloth shop business is good, it would be fine, but according to Xi's knowledge, when Pei Hui was alive, the Xu family's cloth shop was barely able to support the façade because of the purchase transactions with the Pei family. However, after Pei Hui's death, the head of the Pei family was succeeded by Pei Cong of the third room, and Pei's business with him was cut off. It stands to reason that if Xu Jing really relied on the purchase of the Pei family to support his livelihood, then the farmland should have fallen from the sky. Even today, the shop under his name should have fallen a long time ago. However, in recent days, Xu Jing not only has not had any money, but also bought three downtown shops in Suiyang last month, and none of the money used was collected from the land. ”

When he said this, the candle in Wang Yuxi's hand was about to burn out, and the small wick emitted a faint light, which could only barely illuminate the façade on the side of the road.

Because of his words, Zhou Rushui was stunned. She stared at the flickering faint light and thought secretly for a while, and for a moment, she looked up at the Xu family cloth shop in a wistful manner, and said a little blankly: "If this is the case, where did the money in Xu Jing's name come from, and since he refused to show this money to others, he knew that it was not a good place." After a pause, she turned her head bluntly, her mouth flattened, and she looked at Wang Yuxi fixedly and asked, "Since San Lang knows, don't sell Guanzi."

Seeing that she couldn't think of the hidden impatience, Wang Yuxi smiled dumbly, but he didn't want to rub her, raised his eyes to look at the Xu family's cloth shop, and said lightly, "The usual selling of cloth naturally can't make money every day, but if you build a secret passage in the store, Zhongtong Building, set up a secret prostitution building to resell good women and noble women."

"Set up a secret prostitution building to resell good women and noble women"

Hearing the name of the secret prostitute, Zhou Rushui's bottomless eyes were dark, and she had a vague impression in her heart, but after thinking about it carefully, she couldn't explain why. Then she raised her face and said in astonishment and confusion, "It seems that a long time ago, I heard my brothers mention this. ”

Hearing this, Wang Yuxi retracted his gaze and turned his eyes to look at her. Under the moonlight, his picturesque eyebrows were cold, his thin lips were slightly lifted, and he said unhurriedly, "Not to mention the little princess, all the people of Zhou have heard of Taikang for three years, and Lang Zhong ordered Chen Qi and his children to be robbed from Lingshan. In the autumn of the same year, the wife of Yin Qufeng of Jiaoxian County was taken captive from her mother's house, and more than 20 young girls were robbed overnight by the Genging Nanqiu clan. As soon as these good women disappeared, they were not heard from for a while, and it was not until three years later that their whereabouts were revealed from underground prostitution parlors in various places. At that time, the world shook, which led to the joint writing of the ministers and scholars, and the three thousand students knelt in front of the palace gate all night, asking the king to ban the secret prostitution hall and the like. At that time, among the officials involved in this case, there was also my uncle Wang Jian. ”

As for this, Wang Yuxi's voice paused slightly, and a sneer crossed his eyes, and he heard him say in a cold and silent voice, "But the world doesn't know that although the secret prostitution parlor has been banned since Taikang six years ago, the thirty-four people involved in the case have also been sentenced to death. However, since the ninth year of Taikang, there has been a resurgence of secret prostitution halls in various places, and their methods have become more and more secretive, and there have been fewer forced abductions and more transactions. After all, among the gate valves of the scholar clan, there are many yin and selfish, and many are empty. Nowadays, this Xu family cloth shop is indeed a serious business during the day. But when night comes, it's not. ”

Listening to him tell the story, Zhou Rushui only remembered the old things, and he was dumbfounded. She blinked, frowned slightly, her voice was soft, and she said incomprehensibly, "If Xu Jing really has such a great ability, why is Liu Zheng already powerless, and he has stepped on him several times, but he has done nothing, and let Liu Zheng stay in this capital well?"

When Zhou Rushui said this, Wang Yuxi smiled. He had always known that she was very smart, so he was not surprised by her clever words, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he said slowly, "Of course, Xu Jing was incompetent in the previous years." But today, Pei Hui is dead. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Rushui's brows moved slightly, even through the hat, she could vaguely feel Wang Yuxi's lofty and clear eyes, as if she could see everything.

She didn't think about it, and when she heard the words, she said, "Is it possible, the secret prostitution hall was originally owned by Pei Hui, and as soon as Pei Hui died, it naturally fell into Xu Jing's bag" Saying, she rolled her eyes, stared at Wang Yuxi quietly for a moment, and asked coquettishly with a smile, "Is this the reason why San Lang was dyed with beauty incense, if this is the case, can we go and see again?"

The moonlight is like washing, and Zhou Rushui's posture is graceful, and Nana is like a willow. Wang Yuxi looked at her, her handsome face hidden under the hat, and the faint smile in her eyes showed a bit of bewitchment. I saw him leisurely and elegantly extinguish the burned candle in his hand and slowly tuck it into his sleeve. Suddenly, he shook his head slightly, his voice was warm, with a hint of coldness, and he said meaningfully, "Now that the time has not come, there is no need to rush for a while." After all, this matter is deeply implicated, and if it is done in one fell swoop, even the white clothes can also enter the prime minister. ”

His words were unhurried and clear in the empty streets.

Zhou Rushui looked at him with dark eyes, but raised his eyebrows in extreme confusion.

At that time, she couldn't see Wang Yuxi's expression under the hat, but she clearly felt that Wang Yuxi's words were strange everywhere, after all, he has always been self-assured of his two sleeves, how could he miss the so-called white-clothed prime minister, he was not white-clothed, so he thought about it, this is a bit like he was deliberately saying it to others, but in the middle of the night, who would be hidden in the dark

In this way, Zhou Rushui pursed his lips. In the darkness, her beautiful eyes were extremely bright, and although her heart was very slanderous, she did not say much or look left and right.

She just stepped forward suddenly, stood on tiptoe with a bright spirit, and stretched out her arms to hook Wang Yuxi's neck. hooked him, she took off the hat from her hair more straightforwardly and threw it lightly on the ground, turned her head, and lifted the cloud veil on Wang Yuxi's hat, and poked her little head into his hat.

Seeing that she was not ashamed to come in with a small face, Wang Yuxi smiled helplessly, hurriedly hugged her waist, and let her look forward to his face tightly, leaning at him on one side, winking at him playfully, and for a moment, he had raised his voice with a smile, and said crisply, "In this case, why don't San Lang go back to the palace with Tianjiao and enjoy the boundless moonlight." ”

When she said this, her red mouth opened and closed, and the stars in the sky seemed to ripple in her eyes as clear as water. But suddenly, her face changed, and her eyes were a little sharp, staring at Wang Yuxi for a moment.

Seeing this, Wang Yuxi's deep eyes moved slightly, and her slender white fingers gently cupped her cheeks, and in her indignant glare, she only smiled slightly, then lowered her head and locked her lips unambiguously.

Zhou Rushui was a little indignant about what Wang Yuxi did tonight, although he didn't want to lift his platform, he couldn't help but want to give him a little power. But what did he think, Wang Yuxi posted it straightforwardly. She was stupid when she was kissed by him, her face was red to her neck, and her whole body froze firmly in his arms. Because of his warm breath, her face became redder and redder, and before long, she just let him probe into the depths of her mouth and hugged her tightly in her arms.

The two of them were like glue, and it was only after a while that Wang Yuxi bent over and picked up Zhou Rushui and strode away. As the two walked away, the silence of South Street finally returned, and it became extremely empty again, and the pin drop could be heard.

After a while, there was a sudden movement on the street corner. Liu Zheng slowly poked his head out from behind the haystack.

Under the moonlight, his handsome face was bruised and depressed, and he stared at the position where Wang Yuxi and Zhou Rushui hugged each other for a long time, before clenching his fists, staring at his face, pushing away the haystack little by little, slowing down his pace, and walking out of it.

When he bent down to pick up the hat that had been thrown to the ground and the wick that was about to be burned, the green tendons on the back of his hand swelled even more, and his eyes were even more sad and unwilling.

When he first entered Yedu, he wanted to be high-spirited in the world. But he was embarrassed by his life experience, so he had to hide in the mud. Now, even if he tries his best to get by, he is only a small prison market

What's more, Wang Yuxi is not dead, his seemingly useless maternal uncle Xu Jing is actually a Zhou Tianjiao who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger, and this road is no longer possible, so how can he be difficult to live like this?

Thinking about it, Liu Zheng gritted his teeth fiercely, and raised his face with anger in his eyes. He stared at the Xu's cloth shop not far away, thought about it again and again, and finally opened his mouth, sneered, and muttered to himself, "Can the white clothes also enter the prime minister?"

Returning the same way along the secret passage, Zhou Rushui's ears have been burning red. The daze stared all the way, and it wasn't until she was almost at the palace that she woke up from the chaos. Suddenly stopped, and gently pulled Wang Yuxi's clothes.

Because of her actions, Wang Yuxi's footsteps took advantage of the trend. But before he turned around, Zhou Rushui had already grabbed his collar with a cold face, and after a while, he even nodded his feet, pulled out the red sandalwood slingshot on his waist, and hit his throat directly.

Seeing that her movements were like flowing water, her little face was even more blue and red, her eyes were full of spring, and there was also anger in her eyes, she glared at Wang Yuxi angrily, opened her lips and said, "Okay, you Wang Sanlang led me out of the palace, but it was all for the sake of making a show, you should tell me, you go and check what Xu Jing did, and what you just said, whether it is a separation."
