But she did it anyway, so bold, could it be that she couldn't rely on it in her heart?

Thinking of this, Xie Ning's eyes couldn't help flashing, and there were more guesses in his heart. After a little pause, he continued to ask, "Then what did she ask you to come here tonight for?" ”

"This ......", Chang Qi hesitated for a long time, and did not answer, just when Xie Ning's patience was almost exhausted by him, Xiao Yan suddenly bent down, viciously grabbed the collar of his clothes, and stretched out his fist with a straight hook.

was hit in the nose by him, and Chang Qi bled a lot at once. Xie Ning didn't see it, and said in a cold tone: "What are you doing here tonight?" ”

"Miss spare your life. The villain came on the orders of Lou's mother, and everything in it has nothing to do with the villain. ”

"Hey," Xiao Yan sneered disdainfully, glanced at him and said, "I've done everything, and now it's too ridiculous to say that it has nothing to do with you." Now that we've caught you, don't even think about quibbling. Why don't you get it from the truth? ”

When the words fell, he didn't forget to turn his head and cast a smug show off look at Xu Banxia.

Seeing this, Xu Banxia took out a bottle of pills from his sleeve pocket and said to Chang Qi with a smile: "This is our family's ancestral Broken Intestine Pill." After ordinary people take it, they can understand what it means to 'break the liver and intestines', and the taste is painful. Do you want to try it? ”

Chang Qi trembled when he heard this, and said in a trembling voice: "Back to your young lady's words, the villain is going to break into the boudoir of Miss Xie Ning of the Marquis Mansion of Jingyang tonight." ”

Xie Ning's eyes narrowed, and a fierce color flashed in his eyes. Gritted his teeth and asked, "It's that simple?" What about other than that? ”

"Mother Lou didn't say much to the villain," Chang Qi shook his lips, his face was already blue, "But the woman's boudoir, outsiders trespass, let alone at night?" Presumably, Mrs. Hou was dissatisfied with Miss Cousin's robbery, so she set up a poisonous plan and ordered the villain to sneak in secretly while staying in the temple temporarily. ”

What Chang Qi said also has some truth. Xie Ning couldn't help nodding secretly, and his heart was full of thoughts. Xiang has long had a prejudice against her. Now she has made a relationship with Wei Qingyang before Gao Yiyao. naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the other party, and it was not surprising that it would design a disturbance.

But the other party sent such a strange man to attack at night, intending to ruin his reputation, but such a move made Xie Ning unbearable. After all, she's just an ordinary woman. Imagine if Jing Yuan hadn't heard Xiang's abuse before. I'm afraid I won't be so precautionary tonight. If he was really stunned by the incense sent in by Chang Qi like Gu Sui and Ming Shuang, then Xiang might really be able to succeed.

It's just, the incense...... Shainin's mind turned. A look suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he paused to be on guard, and looked at Chang Qidao fixedly: "Aren't you afraid that this Miss Xie will hear movement at night?" ”

Chang Qi's expression was in a trance for a moment, his gaze stayed on Jingyuan's body for a moment, his eyes flashed, but he concealed it: "This ...... The villain had poked at the window when he came before, and confirmed that there was no movement in the room, so he planned to enter through the window. The villain thought that the room was full of women, so he didn't take more precautions, but you were already prepared......"

Chang Qi's voice became lower and lower, and the doubts in Xie Ning's heart became heavier and heavier. For her, the truth has long been revealed. She really didn't understand the reason why Chang Qi concealed the drug, but Rao was skeptical, but she had already made a judgment about the truth and falsehood of the words of the person in front of her.

The other party deliberately concealed it, obviously with other plans. Xie Ning's eyes flashed slightly, and his gaze moved towards Chang Qi without a trace, secretly looking at the look on his face, and he felt more and more that the other party had a ghost in his heart.

If the news of trespassing into a woman's boudoir spreads, it will be a loss for the woman anyway. Rao is Xie Ning is informal, and he doesn't want to bear this evil consequences in vain. Chang Qi's actions were obviously instructed by others, but Xie Ning had a faint premonition in his heart.

I always feel that in front of everyone, the other party may not be as honest as at this time.

If she didn't want to wade into this troubled water, the best way was to take Chang Qi away. If the other party is not in her room, then no matter how Xiang climbs, it will just be groundless nonsense.

But although he knew how to act and asked her to let Xiang go so easily, Xie Ning really couldn't be willing.

If she just wanted to stay out of the matter, she should have ignored Xiang's arrangement and lived with Xu Banxia early in the morning.

But she, Xie Ning, is not such a character. Now that the situation is at an impasse, what should she do?

Something disturbed, and Shainin's expression changed several times. Xu Banxia's sharp eyes were sharp, so he quietly stretched out his foot and kicked Xiao Yan's shoes, silently winking.

"The three of us might as well go over and discuss it first. Little Master, you stay here and watch him. Xiao Yan spoke out knowingly, and without waiting for Xie Ning to respond, he pushed her shoulders into the inner room.

Xie Ning stood still, suppressed the thoughts in his heart, raised his head in confusion, looked at Xiao Yan and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"Uh......" Xiao Yan sighed, and looked at Xu Banxia on the side.

Xu Banxia smiled wryly and asked directly, "A-Ning, what are you thinking just now?" ”

The two of them helped her a lot, Xie Ning had no intention of hiding it, so he lowered his voice at the moment, and told Chang Qi that he had been drugged and the things he was worried about.

"This kid doesn't tell the truth!" Xiao Yan frowned, and although his voice was extremely soft, the annoyance in his voice was obvious.

Xu Banxia glanced at him, and turned to Xie Ning for confirmation: "So A-Ning, what do you mean is that he deliberately avoided the important and trivialized, but in fact, there is still a plan?" ”

Xie Ning nodded with a straight face, "Not bad." I am a martial artist, and ordinary incense can't make me do anything. And this white smoke is actually more powerful than the spices you mix, which shows that the other party has also put in a lot of effort. However, based on Chang Qi's reaction, I don't think they seem to be sure that the incense can stun me. ”

A sudden look flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes, "Are you saying that what he just said, but he was deliberately soft?" No wonder...... No wonder he would admit to us so directly that it was the Xiang clan who ordered him to come. ”

Xie Ning was waiting for her head to agree, but she suddenly saw Xu Banxia's figure in her afterglow, she couldn't help but look up, and saw that the other party was not stopping. While walking outward, he said softly: "I'll go outside first and put away the bamboo pipe and see if there's anything strange before talking." ”

"It's fine." Xu Banxia is good at pharmacology, so he must be able to distinguish some clues from it.

Xiao Yan looked around, and then said to Xie Ning in hindsight: "No wonder I didn't see Mingshuang, was she stunned?" ”

"Well," Xie Ning didn't bother to talk about this matter more, and after a brief response, he turned back to the topic, "Now it's a top priority." It is to find out the connection between Chang Qi and Xiang. Otherwise, this kind of thing can be one or the other. I'm going to have a headache in the future. ”

Xiao Yan frowned slightly, and said with a distressed expression: "I understand what you mean, but if you really follow your method, I'm afraid it won't be easy." In case they take advantage of it. Aren't you at a loss for words? ”

Xie Ning's eyes darkened. Hate complained loudly: "It's only because the Xiang clan is too cunning." Except for Chang Qi's one-sided words in front of us, he couldn't grasp the slightest handle. ”

"You can't say that," Xiao Yan patted Xie Ning on the shoulder. In turn, he comforted her and said: "Chang Qi is a scholar next to Xiang Ming. Even if Xiang doesn't admit it, the twists and turns in it will make a discerning person know what is going on at a glance. ”

Xie Ning bowed slightly, turned to sort out his chaotic thoughts, and after a while, he said loudly: "The Xiang family bothered to plan, it must be to ruin my reputation. It is estimated that when the sky is light, she will order someone to come. Brother Xiao, do you say that I directly called out Chang Qi to confront her face to face? Or is it something else? ”

Xiao Yan glanced at her, but shook his head and said, "If you are sure that the Xiang clan is coming, it is better to make things bigger." Isn't Mrs. Gao also in the temple, she is a well-informed old man, so she can naturally distinguish right from wrong, and it is best to administer justice for you. ”

When Xie Ning heard this, he couldn't help but move in his heart.

"Your idea is not good enough," Xu Banxia's voice suddenly came, Xie Ning looked back, and saw her holding the bamboo pipe that Chang Qi had used before, and said to Xiao Yan with a smile.

Xiao Yan glared at her unconvinced, "Then if you have any good ideas, let's hear about them." ”

Xu Banxia smiled more and more happily, and said proudly: "Then you can listen well." ”

"Say it quickly, what is the sale?"

Xiao Yan urged him to land, Xu Banxia didn't hesitate any longer, turned his head to look at Xie Ning, and said directly: "As far as I know, the relationship between the second lady in the house and the Marquis of Jingyang is not very good. Let's invite her first and study it together. ”

He does have an indifferent relationship with Xiang on weekdays, but her relationship with herself does not seem to be close. Xie Ning looked at the whitening sky, thought about it for a while, and decided to invite He in person.

***

Shainin entered and exited, and it was already past the hour to return to the room. Chang Qi had already been moved to the inner room by Xiao Yan, Xie Ning bypassed the partition outside, stepped forward, and said directly: "The reason why you appear here on this trip will be carefully told to me again." ”

Although Chang Qi's hands and feet were tied, he was not blindfolded in front of him, so Xie Ning had just gone out, and he could also notice it. Although he wondered why Xie Ning asked again, he didn't show anything on his face, and his face turned pale, so he continued to say according to his previous words: "The villain is the scholar next to Xiang Ming and Xiang Gongzi. I came here at night on the orders of Lou's mother, intending to destroy Miss Xie Ningxie's reputation......"

"This young lady," Chang Qi recounted, but his mouth still kept talking, and he pleaded with a pleading expression: "The villain knows that he is wrong." Please raise your hands and let me go. ”

"Let you go?" Xiao Yan suddenly raised his voice, his eyes flashed even more, and he asked in a fierce voice: "How do you want us to let you go?" Don't you want us to send you out without any accountability? ”

"No, no, no, of course not," Chang Qi hurriedly denied it, as if he was afraid that Xiao Yan would be angry, and said with a flustered expression: "The villain just wants to ask you not to pursue it, after all, what the villain did was all on orders." ”

When Xie Ning heard this, although he didn't say anything on his face, he couldn't help sneering in his heart, and secretly said that Chang Qi pretended to be extremely good.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party showed clues after several temptations, they were afraid that they would really believe his nonsense at this time, thinking that he was really a cowardly person, and he had no intention of staying here.

Xie Ning's eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything, but turned his head to look at Jing Yuan, who had been standing beside Chang Qi, and said slowly: "It's not too early, little master must have morning classes to do later, right?" ”

There was a moment of confusion in Jingyuan's eyes, but he and Xie Ning still had a tacit understanding, so he nodded and said, "The little monk will leave first." ”

"I'll send you."

The two went out one after the other, but Xie Ning suddenly stopped under the porch, and saw that there was no one around, so he said to Jingyuan Zhengse: "I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you later." Wait here for a while, and when the time is right, I will call you in. ”

Jingyuan shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be helpless and quipped: "The donor is polite." You're not a problem yet. If the monks don't speak, the little monk has broken his vows. ”

Knowing that he was referring to the 'morning class', Xie Ning couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and said with a sneering expression: "The matter is urgent, the Buddha must be able to understand, little master must not take it to heart." ”

"Well," Jing Yuan nodded solemnly, but this serious expression was only broken in an instant, but when he saw him, he grinned happily: "Don't worry, don't worry." The little monk got it. ”

Xie Ning couldn't see that the other party was deliberately making her happy, and while her heart was warm, her mood was indeed a little relaxed. Not long after returning to the West Chamber, there was a knock on the door from outside.

"Is Miss Watch up? In the past few days, the cicadas have been singing, and Mrs. specially ordered someone to stew lotus seed soup and send it, which is better to calm down and calm your nerves. Would you like a drink? ”

Although the guest rooms of Fuwei Temple are simple, the worst soundproofing is naturally the two rooms on the side of the east and west compartments. Xie Ning suffered from the torture of cicadas for several days, Xiang didn't care about it for a long time, and he didn't care about it late, but he wanted to care about it at this time, if there were no ghosts in it, I am afraid she wouldn't believe it herself.

Xie Ning's eyes flashed, but he didn't respond.

Outside the door, another voice came, "Miss Cousin? Miss Table? The slave and maid came in first. ”

"Ahh Not to mention this sharp voice, it is also extremely penetrating, not to mention the East Chamber, at least Xia Rouyu, who lives next door to Shaining, must be able to listen to the movement.

However, when the maid came back to her senses, she looked at the men and women in the room, and said with a pale face: "Miss Cousin, you, why don't you keep quiet?" ”

Xie Ning smiled slightly, glanced at her thoughtfully, searched from his memory, vaguely recalled the other party's name, and called directly: "Ginkgo, it's early in the morning, isn't it disturbing people's dreams when you shout like this?" ”

Ginkgo's eyes flashed slightly, and she immediately pointed to Chang Qidao, who was tied to the ground: "I hope Miss Biao will forgive me, the slave maid is too caught off guard, and this is a temporary gaffe." (To be continued.) )
