After Lin Luo and Lin Xun entered the Tang Mansion, they followed Mrs. Tang all the way, walked through several large and small courtyards, and finally walked to another bedroom in the back. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info From beginning to end, Mrs. Tang was the same on the outside and on the inside, and her face was cold and calm.

This backyard is quiet and less crowded, compared to the front yard with many eyes, noisy and noisy, this is indeed a good place to talk about business. Along the way, Lin Luo and Lin Xun were watching the scenery of the Tang Mansion, and the more they walked inside, the more satisfied they became, and their mood gradually became more comfortable and natural.

After the three of them walked into the house, Mrs. Tang called Jinxun and instructed: "Go and get good tea, prepare meals, and don't be lazy." ”

"Ma'am, no need, let's ...... After that, go. Seeing this, Lin Luo glanced at Lin Xun and hurriedly said.

Seeing that Mrs. Tang was still cold, she didn't answer Lin Luo's words, and after Jin Xun left, she closed the door, stretched out her finger and pointed to the table in the center of the room, and said quietly: "You two sit down, since you are here, you don't need to be born." After all...... We're all for the same person, and as long as what you say is true, I'll think about it. ”

Lin Luo and Lin Xun sighed greatly, and after thanking Mrs. Tang, the two sat at the table one after the other, and Mrs. Tang walked over quietly with low eyebrows and sat down like this. Soon after, the tea was served, and the red sandalwood in the house was calming and soothing, and the smoke seemed to blow everything away. After the three of them sat down, Lin Luo and the others opened their mouths and told Mrs. Tang everything they knew.

Speaking of the other side of Tanggu Creek, I heard that my father was sick in bed early in the morning, and I went to invite a famous doctor in the capital, and I was sitting in the room at this time, I don't know what to do. She wanted to go to her mother's room to visit her father, but she was afraid that if she went, she would arouse her father's anger yesterday, and then it would be troublesome to add fuel to the fire.

The two of them were frowning sadly in the west wing, tossing and turning, but they heard the sound of turning over boxes and cabinets not far away, and the footsteps seemed to be quite numerous, and the voices were chaotic but small. This is the backyard of the Tang family, and it is the location of the lady's boudoir, usually no outsiders come in, even if there are male servants who come in to do things, they will say hello in advance, and this is the first time that a situation like this has happened.

When Tang Guxi heard this, he thought that there was a thief in the house, but there was nothing to take here except for a few utility rooms and his own house, who was it?

Yu Ming's face was already pale with fright, and she asked in horror, "Xiao ...... Miss, you can't really be a thief, right? ”

Tang Guxi held his breath and shook his head: "I don't know ......"

Hearing that the young lady didn't know, Yuming was even more out of ideas, and hurriedly dropped the work in her hand and ran to Tang Guxi's side, snuggled up to her tremblingly, and said, "It's better to ...... Why don't we go out and have a look? ”

Tang Guxi got up from the chair, bypassed the screen in the middle of the room, walked to the door, and then leaned over again to listen carefully for a while, then raised his head and said to Yu Ming: "I'll go out, you stay in the house well." ”

"No, Miss! How can I let you go out and see it alone? I'll go with you! Yu Ming flew over as she spoke, but before she could reach the young lady, she was rejected by her two feet away, so Yu Ming had to stop her steps and stand there silent.

"You're going? What's the use of you going out? Don't say it's a thief, even if the assassins come in, you don't have the strength to fight them. You just stay in the house, lock the door, and don't open the door unless I come. Don't take a step out without my permission, let alone do me a favor, do you hear? Tang Guxi's face was calm, and his demeanor seemed to be going out to enjoy the flowers.

"Miss......" Yuming twisted her hands and hung her head slightly, tangled.

"Did you hear that?"

"Listen...... Heard it. ”

Tang Gu Xiyue raised her eyebrows slightly, nodded with satisfaction, and was about to turn around and go out, but when she heard Yu Ming call her again, she turned around a little impatiently, "What about it?" ”

"Whip!" As soon as Yu Ming's thin voice sounded, a long whip appeared in her hand, she smiled, raised her hand and threw the whip over. Tang Guxi stretched out his hand to catch it, glanced at the whip, and then at Yuming, and said with a smile: "Thank you!" ”

"Ho, this Yuming, she believes everything she says......"

After coming to the courtyard, she secretly smiled at Yuming, but at this moment she heard a sound of talking, and at this moment the voice was closer and much clearer.

That's when doubts really came to mind. She became alert, followed the sound to find the past, after passing through the moon gate, she vaguely saw several figures in black walking over, carrying something heavy in their hands, the leader was whispering to them, and for a while she couldn't hear what was being said.

Can't do it...... Is it really a thief?

Tang Guxi was still a little childish before, and he didn't take the theft seriously until he really saw the figure moving things away at this moment, and he began to be really worried. If I read it correctly, they were about to walk out the back door.

The back door was hidden behind an ivy field, and the path leading there had grown a lot of weeds because it had been untended for a long time, and the ivy around it had grown unscrupulously, blocking the original path. If you don't look closely, you really can't see that dilapidated little door.

For as long as Tang Guxi can remember, the back door has been locked, and no one usually pays attention to it, let alone passes by it.

At this time, those people were sneaky, all unfamiliar faces, and there was the key to this door in their hands, and the old closed back door opened, and those people were about to go out from there......

"Stop! Who are you who dare to trespass on the Tang Mansion here? Tang Guxi asked sharply, and stepped forward in a few steps, standing in front of those people, only a few feet away from them.

Those people suddenly raised their heads, turned to look at the strange women who suddenly appeared in front of them, all of them were dark-faced, not tall but strong and powerful, with some sharp eyes, but more puzzled. In the face of unexpected situations, they are all on guard and vigilant.

"Who are you?" One asked in a low voice with hostility.

"Who am I?" Tang Guxi snorted coldly, "I was about to ask who you are!" Say, "What have you come to my house, how have I never seen you?" ...... in your hands What are you holding? Tang Guxi caught one last glimpse of what they were carrying, which were some old wooden chests, no different from ordinary chests except for the special metal carvings on the locks and the surrounding edges.

They all stared at her with the same defensive looks, their hands firmly on the edge of the box, their bodies bowed back, but none of them answered.

"Don't say it yet!" Tang Guxi's breath was slightly panting, and as soon as the whip in his hand was raised, he struck the ground loudly.

I only heard someone whispering: "It is estimated that she is the young lady of the Tang Mansion, let's not provoke it, let's leave quickly!" ”

"Let's go? I'm afraid if I don't explain it to her now, this fierce lady won't let us go......"

Tang Guxi hooked the corners of his mouth, but the power in his eyes did not diminish at all, and he chuckled: "You are a smart person, you know that anyone who falls into my hands should not want to escape easily, let alone you little thieves?" ”

"We ......" One person was a little anxious, and was about to explain, but was stopped by the person in front of him with his hand. The man's voice was calm and appropriate, his tone changed steadily, and he said to Tang Guxi: "Presumably you are Miss Tang, the little ones are polite!" ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and shook it quickly, and then put it down again, his face was calm, and his tone remained unchanged: "Miss Tang, we are not the thieves you said, but the deserters who do things for Lord Lingzun. I came to the house today to listen to someone's orders and take what I should take, otherwise how could I have the key to your little door in my hand? I hope Miss Tang will not be surprised, we have urgent matters to deal with, and we can't stay here for long...... Therefore, please don't embarrass the little ones! ”

As he spoke, he unfolded his palm, and sure enough, there was a mottled key lying in his broad palm. Seeing that he was so sincere and reasonable, Tang Guxi also hesitated, staring at the key and frowning.

But soon, she found the clue: "Then why don't you go through the front door, but go through this dilapidated side door?" Since you are doing things for your father, no one in the house will stop you, what are you still hiding? What's in the box? ”

"As for why you want to go through this sideline, that's the master's reason, we just have to listen to the orders. And in this box, there is nothing in it, just a box. ”

"I don't believe it! Open it for me to see, and if there is nothing in it, I believe you. If there is a half-point difference between what you say, I will not spare you! ”

Several people looked left and right, looked at each other a few times, and then nodded. The leader crouched down, opened the locks one by one, and then suddenly lifted the lid and showed these well-made old boxes in front of her one by one.

The whip in Tang Guxi's hand gradually loosened, but his flat eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he looked at the scene in front of him in surprise without saying a word. For she saw that the inside of these chests were really as empty as the man had said.

"This ...... How is this possible? Tang Guxi muttered, and only after a long time raised his head and glanced at them again, "You guys...... Are you really doing things for the master? ”

The leader laughed lightly, but the expression on his face did not move, he bent down to lock the boxes one by one, and said calmly: "Miss still doesn't believe it, and we don't know how to answer." ”

"But what does Daddy want these boxes for? Could it be that he usually uses a container for trade and goods...... Isn't that enough? These boxes are so worn-out, what is he going to do with them? ”

"Mademoiselle did not know that the boxes, though they looked old, were sturdy and sturdy, and the planks were of fine material and sealed so that nothing would leak out. Even if the incense is put in, there is not a trace of smell. ”

Tang Guxi listened carefully, nodded quite convincingly, and said appreciatively: "Unexpectedly, there are such good things in this grocery room, why didn't I find it in the first place?" Ladies and gentlemen, the little girl didn't know the details just now, and she was offended, so please don't blame it! She put away her whip and bowed.

The expressions of those people finally calmed down, and their bodies relaxed and no longer tense, and they were busy with their own work, and picked up the box from the ground again. The leader arched his hands again and thanked him loudly: "Miss is so understanding and reasonable, the little ones are really grateful!" ”

Tang Guxi smiled and nodded, watching these people pick up the boxes and was about to walk out, he couldn't help but ask again: "I don't know what kind of goods are you transporting for your father this time?" The little girl listened to how easy the box was just now, and she was curious, so she wanted to ask more. ”

I saw that the expressions of those people froze again, and the face of the leader was embarrassed, and after a moment of silence, he smiled slightly: "This shipment is not under our control, and there are other masters to escort it, we just have to send it to those people." ”

"But after all, you are the people next to the master, how can you not know what the master wants to ship?" Tang Guxi smiled, looking at them with a pair of smart eyes, waiting for an answer.

"We ...... We ......"

Several people looked difficult and refused to answer. Originally, Tang Guxi had already put his mind at ease and wanted to let them go, but he could see this expression, but he was a little suspicious, and he couldn't help but raise his voice, and said with a little anger: "It's just a commercial product, what can't you tell?" Why, do you still have anything unsightly to transport? ”

"Small...... That's not what the little ones meant......"

"What does that mean?" Tang Guxi said angrily, feeling ashamed for a while, "Can't I even know what goods my father handles?" Did you take me Tang Guxi in your eyes? Still is...... What did my father really do? ”

Her last words were not loud, but they were full of intimidation and anger, as if they had roared from the abyss, dull and powerful, both questioning and questioning, and threw this sharp word at them.
