32.Chapter 032
Qin Youxi had already arrived downstairs, and when he looked ahead, there was only a sunset red left on the east-west street.
The shadow of the man, pulled on the ground, long, thin, has an extraordinarily delicate taste.
After hearing the voice behind him, Qin Youxi's footsteps finally stopped.
Her brows furrowed slightly, but the smile on her lips hooked up at the same time, and the fish really bitten.
As early as when he saw that Chen Wang was also here, Qin Youxi knew that Xie Fu had the idea of killing two birds with one stone.
Chen Wang hurriedly chased after him, his footsteps were very heavy, and he soon came behind Qin Youxi.
"Miss Qin!"
Qin Youxi turned her head reservedly, facing her acquaintances, she didn't have the cold temperament of Fang Cai upstairs, she said with a smile: "When I was upstairs, because someone was there, I didn't greet Chen Gongzi alone. I hope that the son will not be blamed. ”
This attitude is really a 180-degree turn.
Chen Wang was a little surprised, but he remembered his pursuit of Qin Youxi in the past, and thought that Qin Youxi was still a person who missed the old love.
But after all, there has been too much change, and at this time he speaks with a bit of embarrassment.
"Qin, Miss Qin, it's not a big deal. In the past, I didn't know that you had such a great ability, I saw that everyone above was stunned, even Zhang Lizhu is not as good as you! It's amazing, it's amazing! ”
As he spoke, he also gave Qin Youxi a thumbs up.
Qin Youxi glanced up, and someone on the upper floor of the White Reed Pavilion was looking this way. She didn't really care, but her voice was lowered a little.
"It's just a matter of being entrusted and loyal. Chen Gongzi asked the slave family to stay, but what is the matter? ”
According to Qin Youxi's understanding of Chen Wang, Chen Wang must be itching in her heart at this time, and if she wants to talk about the old relationship with herself, she has already dealt with the next situation in her mind many times.
Unexpectedly, Chen Wang's next words were very unexpected to her.
Chen Wangdao: "It's not a big deal, I just remember that I haven't been to the Star Picking Tower for a long time, but I don't know when Miss Qin and Second Miss Xie have a relationship." Forgive me for taking the liberty of not knowing what Miss Qin and the second girl are...... What relationship? ”
“……”
Qin Youxi's expression stiffened for a moment, and the smile lines on his face were momentarily sluggish.
Chen Wang still has some ability to observe words and feelings, and since he knows that his words are inappropriate, he quickly redeems them.
"I didn't mean that......"
"Giggle......
Qin Youxi covered her lips and laughed, her body shook with the laughter, and the water snake's waist shook slightly, which was called a bewitching and charming.
Many people upstairs who were quietly watching couldn't help but swallow their saliva when they saw this.
Perhaps, the so-called stunner, that's it, right?
If it was in the past, Chen Wang must have immediately noticed Qin Youxi's coquettishness, but in fact, today's Chen Wang didn't care at all.
There is only one Xie Fu he cares about.
Since love at first sight, his whole person has followed the devil.
"Miss Qin, I'...... I don't really mean anything else, I'm just a little curious......"
"It doesn't matter."
Qin Youxi finally restrained her smile, but the corners of her lips still had the afterglow of a coquettish smile.
"After all, Chen Gongzi only proposed to the second girl some time ago, and it is inevitable that he cares, the slave family has forgotten that he is just a dusty woman, so naturally he can't be compared with a noble lady like the second girl. Chen Gongzi is curious about the second girl, and he should be. ”
"I ......"
Chen Wangzhen wanted to say that it wasn't for this reason, just because what he liked was Xie Fu.
But when he raised his eyes, Chen Wang suddenly bumped into Qin Youxi's soft eyes with coquettishness, as if there was infinite shyness in the flickering of his eyes.
The body fragrance on the beauty's body, like a thin feather, gently swept in his heart.
Out of physiological instinct, Chen Wang's Adam's apple moved up and down, and finally hurriedly looked away: "Miss Qin doesn't have to be so arrogant, you can meet a good ...... after all."
“…… You! ”
Qin Youxi was almost upset by this stupidity, and she was about to say something rude, but fortunately, she had profound skills and did not make a mistake at this critical moment.
With a long sigh helplessly, Qin Youxi's eyes seemed to be swirling with smoke, and they were full of water.
There was bitterness on her lips, but not very deep.
"Chen Gongzi is an infatuated lover, I really envy the second girl. You regret that she and the second girl only have this friendship, and the rest is really nothing. Chen Gongzi, since I met it today, the slave family has something to ask for. ”
This is the first time.
As the Oiran of the Star Picking Tower, Qin Youxi has always been chased and held by others, when did he have such a low voice and a soft voice to ask for someone?
Chen Wang was stunned, and subconsciously said, "Miss Qin, it's okay to say it." ”
Qin Youxi sighed and chuckled.
"Next time, if there is anything related to the second girl, please don't ask the slave family."
Chen Wang was surprised: "Why? ”
Qin Youxi looked at him for a long time, as if he felt that he was really an elm head, and said with a smile: "There is no woman who wants the person she likes to be here to ask about her rival. ”
“……”
This time, it was Chen Wang's turn to be completely stunned.
Qin Youxi shook his head, sighed again, and bowed: "The slave family said something that shouldn't be said, Chen Gongzi should forget it." The slave family took their leave. ”
After saying that, he really turned around and left.
The distance between the two people is getting bigger and bigger.
Chen Wang always stood in place, watching the figure of Na get farther and farther away.
Really......
I didn't think about it at all.
Until Qin Youxi's shadow completely disappeared at the end of the street, Chen Wangdu still couldn't react.
Qin Youxi......
Interested in him?
At that moment, he couldn't tell what he felt inside.
It's like overturning a five-flavor bottle, some are happy, some are proud, some are distressed, and a little bit can't believe it......
A lot of emotions were mixed together, so that Chen Wang stood in place for a long time.
The sun was finally setting.
On the tea shed on the street, Xie Fu finally explained the last details to Liu Yidao.
Huo Xiaonan squatted beside him early and observed the passers-by.
Just now, a child was walking around on the street and said that Zhang Lizhu was embarrassed, which was all expected by Huo Xiaonan, but when he heard it, he still smiled: what he laughed at was not the result of the incident, but his curiosity about Zhang Lizhu's situation later.
It's not good to mess with anyone, but you want to mess with Xie Fu?
"Please rest assured, Miss Liu, Liu will do his best."
Liu Yidao knew that the matter would come to an end here, and after asking Xie Fu some questions, he also had a relatively clear idea in his mind.
The names of several key people have been memorized by him, and after he goes back, he can start looking up just by looking for an opportunity.
Whether it is him or Xie Fu, they all know that this is not a real murder.
Xie Fu just wanted to know why her mother committed suicide by hanging a beam.
Liu Yidao is not responsible for bringing the culprit to justice, as for whether Xie Fu will do it or not, it is not something that Liu Yidao can manage, what he has to do is to solve this case.
In essence, Liu Yidao is not interested in these grievances and hatreds.
Xie Fu obviously knew what kind of person Liu Yidao was, and he dared to ask someone to help today.
Since the matter was over, she didn't stay long.
Standing up, Xie Fu took his leave: "In this way, please ask Liu Zhutou, if there is any need, you go back to Xiao Nan, and I will let him follow this matter." ”
"Thank you, Miss."
Liu Yidao also got up and gave his hand.
Huo Xiaonan saw that the two of them stood up, so he hurriedly jumped up from the spot and came to Xie Fu's side.
"Miss, are you done?"
"It's settled." Xie Fu smiled slightly, "Let's go back." ”
"Okay." Huo Xiaonan readily agreed, and when he left, he bowed his hand to Liu Zhutou, "Master Dao, goodbye!" ”
Liu Yidao nodded, and after seeing the three masters and servants leave, he stepped on the red light of the sunset, and when he passed by the door of the prison, that sentence flashed in his mind, and his footsteps stopped suddenly.
The cell boss at the door was still yawning, and when he saw Liu Yidao stop, he was so frightened that the sleepy insects flew.
"Dao Master, what's the matter?"
“…… I'm going to go in and have a look. Liu Yidao said and walked in, "Is that kid surnamed Pei still making trouble?" ”
"There's no fuss, I guess I saw you here just now, and I was impressed by your might." The cell boss replied casually, leading the way, "When I came out just now, I heard that kid humming in the cell, and I don't know why I was so happy." ”
Liu Yidao entered the prison, but it was still so dark inside, only three feet from the door there was light.
Sure enough, there was the sound of humming songs in the depths of the prison.
"Three rivers, three legs, two on the ground, one ......"
"Raised by a son of a bitch, this is still a good singing......" The cell boss heard this, and couldn't help but scold, "As long as he still has three legs, Lao Tzu will break his third leg in a while!" ”
Liu Yidao's brows furrowed, but it wasn't because of this song.
He walked straight towards Pei Chengrang's cell, and sure enough, he saw Pei Chengrang leaning idly against the wall of the cell, crossing Erlang's legs, shaking non-stop, and with a strange expression on his face.
The cell boss walked up and kicked the cell door as usual: "If you don't fight for a few days, you still remember that the girl is here." Don't touch it, don't you have sore hands? Beware of Lao Tzu taking you out and practicing drills. ”
The singing suddenly stopped.
Pei Chengrang seemed to notice that someone was coming, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, his eyes fell on the face of the cell leader, and then turned to Liu Yidao's face, and suddenly showed a flattering smile.
He got up and came to the prison door: "Yo, Liu Zhutou, you are here, you are really a rare guest." It's so late, what's the matter with you? Or do you think I've been in prison lately and want to let me out? ”
The cell boss already has a feeling in his heart, how can this stinky boy be different from other prisoners?
For a while, he didn't know what to say, so he had to widen his eyes.
Liu Yidao's sharp gaze swept up and down Pei Chengrang's face, but he didn't see the reason.
At first, he only thought that this was just an ordinary gangster with neat hands and feet, but just now, Liu Yidao felt that something was wrong.
Huo Xiaonan is the person next to Xie Fu, and it is obvious that he doesn't know Pei Chengrang, but just now Pei Chengrang said a very strange sentence: "I followed Chen Zhixian's carriage into Beijing." ”
Officials who have entered Beijing today are generally coming to Beijing when the three-year plan is up.
This "Chen Zhixian" should be one of them.
Liu Yidao remembered that this little gangster named Pei Chengrang was originally from Yancheng.
And some time ago, Yancheng was indeed very famous, so that even Liu Yidao, who didn't listen to things outside the window, knew that the magistrate of Yancheng was called Chen Yuan, and this time he made a great contribution.
If there is no accident, the "Chen Zhixian" that Pei Chengrang said in his mouth must be Chen Yuan.
Why did Pei Chengrang say this to Huo Xiaonan? Is it really as simple as showing off your backers?
With years of experience, Liu Yidao feels that it should not be so simple.
His gaze didn't take away from Pei Chengrang's face for a moment: "What does Chen Zhixian have to do with you?" What do you know? ”
Pei Chengrang didn't expect Liu Yidao to ask this, he was surprised for a moment, and then laughed.
"Chen Zhi County, that is the Chen Zhi County in Yancheng, he is my backer! Do you know why he made meritorious contributions? It's not because of Lao Tzu! ”
"Oh?"
Liu Yidao made an interested expression, but Pei Chengrang was not fooled.
Maybe he knew that Liu Yidao was here to spy on something, Pei Chengrang was not flattering now, and as soon as he turned around, he pointed at Liu Yidao with the back of his head.
"These are my own affairs, Liu Zhutou, you are a clean catcher, and it is not good for you to know this kind of indiscriminate thing we do. You, don't try to get anything out of my mouth, I'm just a thug in the market, and after squatting in prison, you still have to let me out. It's getting late, it's wet in this prison, so you might as well go back early. ”
This mouth is really tight enough.
Liu Yidao stared at the back of Pei Chengrang's head for a long time, resisted the urge to split it to see what kind of brain flower was inside, turned to leave, and only ordered the cell head: "Take care of him for me." ”
"Yes."
The cell boss wondered, just to ask those few words?
I really don't understand.
The farther the footsteps went, the cell boss quickly left, and soon there was the sound of the cell door locking.
Pei Cheng let the back of his head move, and finally turned his head again.
Pushing his hands towards the cell door, he saw that there was no one left, so he retracted his head, and a strange expression appeared on his dark face.
I'm really looking forward to it.
What will that third-rate kid do after hearing the words "Chen Zhixian"?
If the corner he heard that day was true, Chen Yuan had a lot to do with this noble lady in the capital, and now by mistake, because of this noble lady's imprisonment, he fell into a big blood mold, and he actually bumped into this one of his subordinates.
Interesting......
Misfortune and blessing rely on, and blessing and misfortune lurk.
Who said it would be bad luck this time?
However, those twists and turns in the officialdom are too brain-burning, and if you want to play with this group of people, you still have to be vigilant, keep your head in your hands at any time, and don't forget it one day.
Pei Chengrang touched his neck, which was still intact, and narrowed his eyes beautifully.
"The capital is really a good place, a good place."
Well, he must drink the strongest wine, lie in the softest bed, and sleep with the most delicious woman!
Sighing comfortably, Pei Chengrang lay down on the firewood and grass pile again, closed his eyes, and fell asleep early.
On the other end, Xie Fu finally returned home and went to the study to visit Gao Gong.
Gao Gong's mood didn't seem to be very good, it turned out that a few hours ago, Xie Zongming had already received the will of promotion, and came back with a happy face, and said directly to Gao Gong that he wanted to take Xie Fu back and put on all kinds of etiquette.
Gao Gong was furious on the spot, refused mercilessly, and then said that the imperial court's decree had come down, Xie Zongming could not stay in Beijing for a long time, and he had to return, and he would drive people away directly in the afternoon without thinking about it.
Poor Xie Zongming and Xie Rong hadn't seen much of the prosperity of the capital, so they were swept out of the house and embarked on the way home.
Knowing that these two people were gone, Xie Fu was in a good mood, but when he came out of the high-arched study, he felt less happy again.
As soon as people leave, hatred and truth seem to be far away from themselves.
Xie Fu raised his head, just staring at the moon on the horizon, and the day after tomorrow was the palace banquet......
The housekeeper Gao Fu took a few steps with the lantern as usual, but at the bottom of the steps stood Huo Xiaonan and Full Moon beside Xie Fu, so soon Full Moon took over the lantern and sent Xie Fu back.
The master and servant were walking on the way back, and Xie Fu asked, "When we met at the gate of the prison today, you didn't seem to have anything to say, but what happened?" ”
Huo Xiaonan followed Xie Fu and wanted to talk about this problem, but he didn't expect that Xie Fu's observation was so keen, and even the little careful thinking that turned in his heart seemed to be able to find out.
He spoke: "The girl is really like a torch, and she can even see this. Before you came over today, Xiao Nan went to the prison to check if he had arrested the wrong person. ”
Xie Fu nodded: "You said it." ”
"Yes." Huo Xiaonan continued, "Originally, it wasn't a strange thing, but when I was inside, that person made me feel a little familiar. That's fine, because I thought about it later, when I went to Yancheng, I had a fight with that gang of gangsters, I came out of the troupe, and I had seen all the three sects and nine streams, so it was normal to have an impression of him......"
"Wait."
Xie Fu interrupted him suddenly, and stopped, turned his head to look at him, and his deep gaze was a little indistinguishable in the night.
"Yancheng, you say?"
"Exactly." Huo Xiaonan also realized that he had never made it clear to Xie Fu, and he explained, "It's a coincidence. This kid who stole things, named Pei Chengrang, was originally a gangster in Yancheng, and I heard that he was doing well. Some time ago, I didn't know what was going on, and I had no way to guide me, so I ran to the capital. ”
The gangsters in Yancheng are interesting.
Xie Fu remembered something else: "What's so weird?" ”
"This Pei Chengrang suddenly said a word to me in prison."
Huo Xiaonan hesitated for a moment, obviously taking advantage of the time to speak, recalling Pei Chengrang's expression at that time, so that he could express it more clearly.
He was smiling, and it was a strange smile...... Xiao Nan can't say it, if I want to describe it, it seems like a little ...... Have a well-thought-out plan? It's pretty much the same anyway. He said, "I followed Chen Zhixian's carriage into Beijing." ”
Chen Zhi County!
The string hidden in Xie Fu's mind instantly tightened.
Standing under the hallway, there was no figure around, and there was silence.
The expression on Xie Fu's face was unmoving, but there were already turbulent waves in his heart.
She wondered what it had to do with it.
Huo Xiaonan was about to ask Xie Fu worriedly, but he didn't expect that just a moment later, Xie Fu had already chuckled.
"You just said that this person was quite capable when he was a gangster, and now I believe it."
