The promise responded normally, and the expression was the same when he answered.

I can't tell if it's hiding anything.

"Is that all? Which street did you go to visit the lantern festival, where did you go to guess the mystery? There are exquisite lanterns or interesting lantern fans, tell your uncle, and your uncle will try to guess the lantern riddles. ”

Lu Yijian was still smiling, and changed to a comfortable posture, looking ready for a long talk.

Seeing that Xu Yu didn't answer, he continued: "I heard that Da Lang said that he guessed the lantern riddle that day and won the boy of the Yan family and the classmate of Yingtian Academy, and got a word book, I wonder if you have encountered them when you guessed the lantern riddle?"

Xu Promise smiled naturally and said calmly: "If my uncle is worried about the ninth cousin, I can go to the Lu Mansion to accompany her before dinner." ”

After Lu Jiuniang heard the rumors, she immediately sent someone to send a letter to Xu Xu, telling her what happened that day, focusing on Wang Banniang's pursuit of her on the street.

Later, Xu Yu heard the rumors outside, and went out to inquire in person, and at the same time, he also knew Lu Jiuniang's current state, so it was easy to understand what Lu Yijian was looking for her today.

At this moment, although she brought up the matter clearly, she did not answer Lu Yijian's question directly.

This matter is related to Lu Jiuniang, if you want to talk about the situation that day, you must ask her what she means.

Moreover, I am really embarrassed to say that a woman disguises herself as a man and goes to a brothel.

Xu Gucheng had been drinking tea quietly beside him, and did not speak, but at this moment he muttered: "This matter is related to your ninth cousin's reputation, tell your uncle the truth." ”

It was the first time he had spoken in such a stern tone and promise, just because he was really worried about promise and didn't want her to be in any danger.

Xu Yu naturally noticed the change in Xu Gucheng's tone, and immediately sat up straight and looked at him.

Seeing that Xu Gucheng's eyes showed concern, not questioning, Xu Promise's back was a little relieved, and he asked, "Daddy, do you want me to tell you everything about that day?"

Xu Gucheng asked for it, she will do it.

That day, she bandaged Xiao Yuan's wound and chatted with Hu Ling for a while. After clarifying the relationship between several people, it didn't take long to hear extremely light footsteps outside.

Even under the interference of the noise outside the house, Xu Promise and Hu Ling, two with rabbit ears, were keenly aware that there was a martial artist approaching quickly.

She immediately took the dagger and stuck it to the door.

Hu Ling also stood by the window with a whip.

Be ready to capture anyone at any time.

The visitor seemed to know that there was someone in the house and knocked lightly on the door.

Three long and two short.

Then he said in a very soft voice: "Xiao Si can be in the house." I'm Little Scissors. ”

After Hu Ling heard the voice, the vigilance that he carried up and down his body disappeared in an instant.

Promise gave her a strange look.

"Acquaintances. Hu Ling made a promise with his mouth.

Xu Yue glanced at Hu Ling deeply, then at Xiao Yuan who was lying on the couch, and asked softly outside, "What's the matter?"

"I brought medicine. Little Scissors said.

Xiao Scissors is the little eunuch who is in contact with Xiao Yuan next to the queen, and he almost grew up with Xiao Yuan.

The queen was enjoying the lanterns with the emperor earlier. When the emperor went to bathe, the queen told him a rough address and asked him to go out with medicine.

He saw a pool of blood at the address the Empress had said.

Then he traced the extremely subtle traces and found another trace of a fight.

And then, he found it.

Holding the dagger in one hand, Promise pushed the door open with the other, looking out vigilantly.

A small black face appeared in front of her like this.

With big eyes and black pupils, he looks like an honest person.

Seeing that the door was open, Xiao Scissors didn't say a word, and immediately took the medicine to re-bandage Xiao Yuan, promising to help on the side.

After bandaging Xiao Yuan properly, Xiao Scissors said that Xiao Yuan was sent back to Xiao's house by him. Let Xu Promise and Hu Ling go back first, so as not to be suspicious of the family.

He promised to see that he was familiar with Hu Ling, and heard Hu Ling tell him about the origin of the little scissors, so he relieved himself, took back the dagger, and left with Hu Ling.

"Liuniang, my uncle didn't question you, the main reason was that Jiuniang's child's appearance in the past few days made me a little worried, so I came to ask you, what happened to the ground that day. Lu Yijian was afraid that the promise would be misunderstood. That's how it is explained.

"We wore men's clothes and went to the Evening Fragrance Building, where we went to see the lion dance ......"

The promise's voice was very calm, and he spoke in a narrative tone. It's just that after meeting Xiao Yuan, everything was replaced by guessing lantern riddles.

Soon after, he promised to put on a cloak and went to Lu's house with Lu Yijian.

Xu Gucheng looked at her departing back, his expression was very complicated.

"Sleepy night. ”

Before he could finish speaking, a dark shadow fell beside him.

"The person who gave you the news that day and helped you find Jingping was Xiao Shilang?"

"Back to Ah Lang, it's him. ”

"Good. You go and find out what he did in Suzhou last spring. ”

"Yes. ”

Xu Gucheng paced back to the study, picked up the wolf pen and wrote a few words before stopping.

I got up and walked around the study twice, sat down again, and picked up the pen again.

But he still put down his pen after writing a few words.

He couldn't calm down?

During the period when Liuniang disappeared and Wanniang was depressed, he didn't write a word or make a painting, precisely because he couldn't calm down.

But that hasn't happened since.

Now I can't calm down anymore.

What happened to Liuniang, the child, is it good luck or bad luck?

Liu Niang has a relationship with the widow of King Xu, whom the emperor attaches great importance to, if this relationship is used reasonably, not to mention that she will have no worries about food and clothing in the future, she will definitely become the most comfortable person in the entire Bianjing City.

But if she doesn't want to, then he won't go against her will and won't run the relationship.

Xiao Yuan is one of the few cronies around the queen, although he is still living in the shadows, but when the emperor sits firmly on the throne, Xiao Yuan will definitely get ahead one day.

He admires such a steady and forbearant young man.

But he didn't want Liuniang to have too much contact with Xiao Yuan, who had not yet made his mark.

To contact Xiao Yuan at this time is to put yourself in the sight of the killer who is chasing Xiao Yuan.

What Xu Gucheng is worried about is exactly what Xiao Yuan is worried about, so Xiao Yuan rarely meets Xu Yuan in public.

He was reluctant to put her in danger.

While Xu Gucheng couldn't calm down, he promised to have met Lu Jiuniang.

When Lu Jiuniang saw the promise, she looked aggrieved and almost cried.

After the people waiting in the house left, Lu Jiuniang complained: "Why are you suing Daddy, so that I will become the son of the Lu family to discredit the Lu family." ”

promised to throw her a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "You are a lady, what does it have to do with your children, and how can you discredit the Lu family?"

Lu Jiuniang was stunned for a moment, and in an instant, her mouth pursed high, and she said with a little pride: "My father raised me as a man, and I am naturally a child of the Lu family." ”

"How can a man pout like this?" Xu Yu looked disgusted, picked up the delicate small porcelain plate on the table, and put the square snacks into his mouth one after another. (To be continued.) )
