At that time, if it weren't for Wei Xiaomei seeing that Gu Qingyun was deliberately scheming, she was afraid that the banquet would be difficult to end for a while.

After such a long time, Wei Xiaomei must have figured it out. Shainin wasn't worried that she would be hot-headed and do anything stupid again, but she was afraid that she would keep these thoughts in her heart and feel uncomfortable by herself.

This matter has been pressing on her heart for a long time. I wanted to write a letter, but I couldn't help but feel that it was a little unclear, and because I went to Fuwei Temple, I never had the opportunity to meet Wei Chengcheng. Since he happened to meet Wei Qingyang today, Xie Ning naturally had to ask.

"It's not bad," the smile in Wei Qingyang's eyes naturally appeared at the mention of his sister, and he turned his head to look at Xie Ning and said, "It's just that I miss you a little." She ran to me a few days ago to ask when you were going to be back. ”

The last time the two got together, it was not a pleasant experience, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they broke up unhappily. However, Xie Ning was not a serious person, even if he thought about it at that time, he was just worried about Wei Xiaomei's situation, and after such a long time, he didn't feel any estrangement between the two, but he was inevitably a little worried that Wei Xiaomei didn't understand her distress at that time.

Now that he got Wei Qingyang's words, Xie Ning knew that Wei Xiaomei had nothing to do with her, and he was finally completely relieved in his heart, and immediately laughed, and said with crooked eyebrows: "I have to be busy with the affairs of the martial arts hall these days, and for a while, I'm afraid I won't be able to pull away." I also asked Brother Qingyang to help me tell Allure, and when I was free, I personally invited her to come out to play. ”

"Okay," the flow of people on the street was very crowded, and Wei Qingyang subconsciously stretched out his hand to help. Protected Shainin from behind.

Xie Ning was about to say thank you, but the other party suddenly turned his head and continued to speak: "By the way, you just came back from Fuwei Temple today, so you came out to discuss with His Royal Highness King An." Could it be that this martial arts hall matter, what is the tricky thing that can't be done? Do you need my help? ”

"No," Xie Ning knew that he was concerned, but he still couldn't help but purse his lips and explain with a smile: "We came back from Fuwei Temple yesterday, and the trip was advanced by one day. ”

Wei Qingyang stopped. Turning his head to look at her. Still concerned and said: "The ninth day of the first month is the opening day of the martial arts hall, and in the next few days, I'm afraid you will be too busy to get out." ”

Although Xie Ning himself is a half-ass, everything in the martial arts hall is arranged by Qin Feng. But it's all twice the result with half the effort. It doesn't take much work.

Think about it. She couldn't help but smile and comforted the other party: "It's okay." In his heart, he was secretly glad that Wei Qingyang didn't ask her. Why did the Hou Mansion and his entourage return to Beijing early?

After sending Wei Qingyang away, when Xie Ning returned to the restaurant along the same road, he happened to bump into Qin Feng's figure at the door.

She was a little caught off guard for a moment, and quietly glanced at the dark lines on the corners of the other party's clothes to confirm that she was not mistaken. raised his head again, but couldn't help but ask out loud, "Brother Ziyue, why did you come out?" ”

Qin Feng looked at her very calmly, and said in a calm tone: "There is suddenly an urgent matter in the house, and I just want to go back to deal with it." ”

I see. The entrance of the restaurant is not a place to talk, and the two of them standing here are inevitably a little in the way. Xie Ning subconsciously turned sideways to avoid it, but did not ask more.

The longer she got along with Qin Feng, the more she could perceive the other party's ambitions, and naturally understood that what Qin Feng wanted to do might not be as simple or as easy as she imagined.

As a good friend, she knows how to balance this. If there is something that can help the other party, she will definitely spare no effort, but if the other party does not speak out, she will not rush to inquire and add burden to the other party.

Even if she was actually very curious in her heart, even if she wanted to repay Qin Feng one or two.

"Then I'll go home first, and I'll see you tomorrow." Qin Feng raised his head slightly, looked past the diners who came over, bowed slightly at Xie Ning, and passed by her.

Xie Ning saw the other party go away, and because he felt that Qin Feng had left in too much of a hurry, he couldn't help but think that the money for the dishes in the restaurant had not yet been settled, so he hurriedly returned immediately.

However, Qin Feng has always been thoughtful, and she was afraid that she would think too much, so she decided to find a guy to ask first. But when she entered the door, she found that Traceless was still sitting in the window seat in the lobby.

Xie Ning walked over full of doubts, and regardless of the fact that the other party was still eating, he asked directly: "Why is it that Brother Ziyue has something to go back to the house, but Brother Wuxian doesn't go back with you?" ”

In Xie Ning's impression, except for a few times when he went out to play, the master and servant were almost never separated, as the so-called Jiao is not separated from Meng, Meng is not out of focus.

Now Qin Feng actually left first, without knowing that there would be no trace. This move is really a bit strange.

Xie Ning looked suspiciously at Wuxian who lowered his head and chewed rice, and his round apricot eyes did not blink, as if he wanted to see some answer from the other party.

On the other hand, there is no trace, but it is very calm. After a while, he raised his head, and his face was still indifferent for a hundred years, and he said expressionlessly: "The prince has his own carriage to pick him up, and he stayed here without a trace, so that he would settle the bill together after you finished your meal, Miss Xie." ”

As soon as I heard this, it was Qin Feng's handwriting. Perhaps it was because it was said by Traceless, who had always been unsmiling, that Xie Ning did not doubt the truth of the other party's words at all, and easily believed his words, and with a hook of the corners of his mouth, he untied the pouch tied around his waist.

"Well, you see," Xie Ning handed it to Traceless and sat down, "I have a money bag with me, and I still have the money to settle the bill." You don't have to worry about me, Brother Ziyue's side is the right thing. ”

Without a trace looked at her, did not speak, turned around and took out a money bag from his bosom, put it on the table, but he suddenly jumped, but in a moment's effort, he jumped out along the wide open window in the building.

His action was done in one go, very quickly, Rao is Xie Ning is also equipped with martial arts, and he couldn't help but be dazzled by the phantom of his body transformation. When I came back to my senses, I found that the person was gone, and next to my hand, only the dark green pouch remained.

This is without a trace!

Xie Ning couldn't help but smile and shook his head, he was planning to return this pouch and the silver taels in it tomorrow, and was about to reach out and put it away temporarily, but he might as well drop his eyes. The action followed with a beating.

The style of this pouch seems to be a little familiar......

The dark green fabric, with a faint glow on it, is very smooth to the touch. The edge is embroidered with light blue bamboo, and the side seams of the four corners are also embroidered with dark lines, and the whole lotus bag has fine stitches and no flaws, just like heavenly workmanship.

If you want to say that the people who serve around Shaining, Gu Sui, like her, is the kind of person who can't even hold a needle. And she had an object on her. It's mostly Mingshuang and Xiaoyue doing it.

And these two people are both from King An's Mansion, and it is normal that the embroidered patterns are the same as those without traces. But in Shainin's impression, it seems that they didn't find such a pattern on the pouch they embroidered on themselves.

But what's even stranger is the style of this pouch. But it just made her feel very familiar. There was a sense of déjà vu. But if she wanted to think about where she had seen it. Shainin couldn't remember it again.

Could it be that Mingshuang embroidered it themselves?

Xie Ning suspiciously put the two purses into his arms, but he made up his mind in his heart to go back and ask Mingshuang properly.

But I went back to the small courtyard. But it was already dinner time, Xie Ning had eaten in the restaurant earlier, and he didn't feel hungry at this time, so he went straight into the boudoir and rummaged through.

Mingshuang and Xiaoyue still have to eat, she has nothing to do at this time anyway, it is better to look in the room first, maybe she can find something, but she doesn't know.

Shainin's purse sachets are almost all placed in the cage under the bed. It didn't take her much effort to find them, but she searched them one by one, but she still didn't find the same pattern.

"Where have you seen it?" Xie Ning couldn't help muttering, although he was very puzzled in his heart, he was not discouraged, but continued to search.

Mingshuang has always been capable, and most of these female red things are from her. Most of the ones on the top are newly made by her recently, and they have not been used once, and Shainin turned down a little bit before gradually identifying those styles that have been used.

This is also the rule of the ladies in Beijing, whether it is a skirt or a hairpin ring, or a variety of ornaments, it must be full of tricks. What kind of clothes and what kind of purse are exquisite, not casual. Now that Xie Ning has so many sachets, I am afraid that it is not enough in the eyes of this group of people.

I don't know where they got so much thought.

Thinking of this, Xie Ning couldn't help pouting, but his movements never stopped. After a while, she found a similar color in the pouch underneath, and she was surprised at the moment.

"Huh?" Xie Ning stretched out his hand and touched the dark lines on the dark green lotus bag, only to feel that the touch was familiar, so he took out the one full of silver taels in his arms without a trace, and compared it in one place, and felt more and more that the two lotus bags were from the same person's hand.

"Miss, what are you doing here? Looking for a purse? ”

Xie Ning was still thinking about the origin of the pouch in her room, and suddenly Mingshuang's voice came from her ears, and she said that the other party came just in time, so she raised her head and called: "Mingshuang, you come to help me take a look, this purse was embroidered by you?" ”

When Mingshuang heard this, she stepped forward with a smile, but when she saw the lotus bag in Xie Ning's hand, her face couldn't help but change, and the smile on the corner of her mouth suddenly froze.

Seeing that her expression was different, Xie Ning's heart couldn't help sinking, and he said thoughtfully: "But is there anything wrong with this purse?" ”

"No," Mingshuang came back to his senses, then smiled very reluctantly, with a confused look in his eyes, took the two lotus bags from Xie Ning's hands, and carefully compared them.

Could it be that there is something strange in this purse? Xie Ning frowned without a trace, but his eyes never took his eyes off Mingshuang.

But seeing her look at it over and over for a while, she withdrew her gaze from the two identical purses, and raised her eyes to look at Shainin again, "Miss, did these two purses come from the prince?" ”

Xie Ning saw that her tone was firm, but the guess in her heart became a little more, although she couldn't figure out the origin of this purse for a while, she had no intention of concealing Mingshuang, so she immediately told each other: "These two purses, one was given to me without a trace today, and the other one was found by me from the cage." ”

Mingshuang glanced at her steadily, the smile on the corner of her mouth remained unchanged, and she said slowly: "As far as the slave maid knows, this purse is specially made for the prince in the sewing room on the palace of King An, and the material is the Shu brocade from the prince's fiefdom, and the embroidery method is also a double-sided embroidery that tests the embroiderer." In the capital, I'm afraid that no one will use the same purse. No trace has been around the prince all year round, and it is not surprising that there will be this pouch on his body. ”

But the question is, how could she have such a thing? It's still the same color, the same material, and the same embroidery.

After all, in her impression, although she often walked outside with Qin Feng, she had never taken Qin Feng's purse. Xie Ning was very puzzled, but he couldn't ask Mingshuang, after all, the other party only knew what this purse was, but he didn't know why this thing came into her hands.

However, this pouch was pressed to the bottom, and I think she had it a long time ago. Her things were also packed by Gu Sui, Xiaoyue and Aoyagi at the beginning, and it was no wonder that Mingshuang didn't notice this.

Thinking of this, Xie Ning suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and subconsciously turned over the pile of scattered pouches on the bed. This time, instead of rummaging through the beginning, he pulled out the four or five purses that were pressed at the bottom.

Plain and without lines, these are the personal things that Xie Ning used to use when he was in Shudi. The dark green pouch was placed with them, and it must have been her earlier thing.

However, since this thing is unique to Qin Feng, then in her hands, it should also be after she enters Beijing. Could it be that she missed it for a while, is this lotus bag really something she accidentally took from Qin Feng?

But this pouch is so valuable, she can't be impressed at all.

Xie Ning was secretly suspicious in her heart, but there was only a blank left in her mind, after more than a month, she couldn't remember where this purse came from, not to mention that she and Qin Feng had always been close, and it was not impossible to take the other party's things by mistake.

Forget it, when I see someone tomorrow, I can return it one piece.

Xie Ning thought about it, and in an instant, he stopped being entangled, turned his head to look at the pile of lotus bags scattered on the side of the bed, and immediately rolled up his sleeves and put them away again one by one.

Seeing this, Mingshuang also bent down to help Xie Ning put it away, but as for the two lotus bags in her hand, she put them on the low table next to the bed.

"Miss, I don't know what you plan to do with these two purses?"

"Naturally, I'm going back," Xie Ning raised his head and smiled at Mingshuang, and even though he lowered his eyes and sorted out the cage, he inevitably had some doubts in his heart, "I just don't know where I got that lotus bag." ”

Mingshuang lowered his head, his eyes flashed slightly, but he was not in a hurry to speak, but after a little thought, Fang said: "You might as well take this pouch and ask the prince, maybe he knows it in his heart." ”

"Hmm."

Having said that, Mingshuang's words were mostly comforting, and Xie Ning didn't take her words to heart, after all, she, who had a lotus bag, didn't remember the origin of this thing. (To be continued.) )

PS: Friendly reminder: When A-Ning first came to the capital, he used to catch thieves outside, what did Qin Ziyue and Wuji do?
