The first breeze of the morning, like a woman's gentle hand, stroked the faces of every shop in the west of the capital, and even the cornices of the bright tiles were smeared with a trace of tenderness.

The door of the Drunken Immortal Residence is still closed, and the plaque at the door somehow looks a little deserted, and it actually feels a little bleak.

Cooing a few times, a carrier pigeon fluttered its wings and landed on the window, the window creaked open, Qi Jin skillfully took out a small note from the pigeon's leg, and then let go of his big hand, and the pigeon flew into the sky.

"Childe has received the news and is on his way back."

Gangzi quickly said: "Master Qi, Gongzi just let us sit here and wait, and do nothing?" ”

Qi Jin said with a haggard face: "He asked us to go to Gaofu to ask for someone!" ”

"Someone? How? Lu Tent's face turned pale and said.

Qi Jin smiled bitterly: "You forgot, Miss Xiaoxi still has a cousin in Beijing, cousin, who made some money by trading, so naturally she wants to redeem her cousin!" ”

"Great idea!"

Qiangzi slapped his big hand, and said in a blink of an eye: "Cousin can be pretended to be anyone, this cousin ......"

Qi Jin's eyes were in a trance, and he instantly came to his senses: "Gangzi, you and Erya go to redeem people together." Qiangzi and I tried to find a way to infiltrate the high mansion, even if we dug three feet into the ground, we had to find out the people. Lao Lu, the affairs of the southern shopkeeper are all handed over to you, and both the Hou Mansion and the Shuntian Mansion need to send people to investigate, those few, let you send them! ”

Lao Lu held back his emotions and said in a dumb voice: "Son, he ......"

Qi Jin's heart churned, gritted his teeth and said word by word: "The anger is monstrous!" ”

……

"Madam, the second lady is crying outside. said that the personal maid is gone, and asks the wife to be the master? Zhengyang lifted the curtain and came in to reply.

Xia Yin gently stroked the corners of her forehead, and sighed with a headache: "Invite someone in!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a cold wind blew in his face, Gao Mallow walked in in an autumn-scented spring shirt, his eyes were red and swollen, and he cried without saluting: "Mother, beg the mother to be the master of her daughter, Shanxiu's maid has disappeared since last night, and she still hasn't found it." Daughter...... Daughter...... I'm in a hurry. ”

Gao Mallow took on the heart of the night. Tears were dripping down.

Xia's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he glanced at Zhengyang.

Zhengyang hurriedly pressed the person to sit on the chair, called the maid to fetch warm water to come in, and personally cleaned the face of the second lady.

Xia softened his voice and said, "Don't worry. Your father has sent people to the house. Presumably this maid is tired of playing in some yard. Forgot to go back. ”

Gao Mallow was obviously dissatisfied with Xia's fluttering words, and said hurriedly: "My daughter heard that at the door of the firewood room, she found a tassel red gold earring. Mother, do you think something will happen to her, according to the daughter's opinion, it is better to send someone around to look for it. ”

Xia's eyes flashed with light, and Zhengse said: "Zhengyang, let the nursing homes in the house, the mothers-in-law and maids in each courtyard secretly look for it, don't shout that everyone in the house knows about it." ”

"Yes, ma'am!" Zhengyang got the order and turned around and went out.

Gao Mallow saw that Xia took her affairs to heart, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to bow and leave, but Xia somehow called her back.

"What's unusual about this mountain show in the last few days?"

Gao Mallow flashed a trace of panic in her eyes, and frowned and thought, "My daughter didn't notice anything abnormal?" ”

Xia Shi blinked his eyes as if he was a little puzzled, and said lightly: "She is your personal maid, she went outside in the middle of the night, didn't she say a word to you?" ”

Gao Mallow was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

Seeing this, Xia Shi said softly: "You also know that Guan Linxi's firewood room was on fire, and Shanxiu was in the master's study that day, accusing Linxi of stealing your things, but at this time, he found the earrings you gave to Shanxiu in the place where the fire broke out, and these two things are linked together......"

Gao Mallow felt two pounds in his heart, broke out in a cold sweat, and his hand holding the handkerchief turned slightly white.

Xia sighed softly: "You have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death." Now there is only one charred corpse in the firewood room, and two people in the side house are missing, you say that the corpse is unrecognizable...... Who could it be? ”

With a soft drizzle of words, Gao Mallow trembled slightly, and his face turned pale.

Xia stepped forward, his soft hand slowly raised the back of the mallow and patted it gently: "Good boy, you tell your mother the truth, what is wrong with Shanxiu in the past two days?" ”

Although Gao Mallow is good at calculation, in the end, she is a woman in the boudoir, and when she heard the word corpse, she was already confused, and her whole body trembled lightly.

Xia coaxed softly: "Good boy, don't be afraid, just say anything about it, and your mother will be the master for you." ”

Gao Mallow raised her teary eyes lightly and said, "On the day of the banquet in the house, I was dressed up in the room, and she didn't say that the light in the study was good, so I went...... Go to the study. And then...... And then that box jewelry...... It's always been her...... Kept for my daughter. ”

The corners of Xia's mouth drooped slightly, and a deep flash flashed in his eyes: "I'm wondering, why did I go to the study to dress up, and put something as valuable as makeup on the desk, so she actually picked it up?" Anything else? ”

Gao Mallow stared at the memories for a long time, shook her head and said: "No, but since she was scared a month ago, she has been a little nervous and often runs outside the hospital." Last night, she said that she wanted to breathe outside the courtyard gate, but I didn't think much about it, so I let people go. ”

Xia Shi seemed to smell something unusual in these things, and she was silent for a while and said, "How do these two maids get along on weekdays?" ”

Gao Mallow only felt that it was difficult to speak.

Xia Shi smiled lightly: "Good boy, if you don't tell the truth, your mother won't be able to help you in this matter!" ”

"I say, I say!"

Gao Mallow panicked and hurriedly said, "It seems to be ...... Not so good. Shan Xiu often said in front of me and my aunt that Lin Xi only had the old master in her heart, and said that she often went to her eldest brother. ”

Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, Xia Shi was a little disappointed in his heart, but his face was full of love: "I'll send you back to the room, don't worry, the official mansion in front is investigating, and there are people looking for it in the house, and they will always find it." ”

Gao Mallow nodded tearfully.

……

Xia sent the second lady away, but he always felt that his heart was blocked by something, and he couldn't breathe, so he went to the west wing.

In the west wing, half of the painting scroll that the old man had made a few days ago was displayed on the desk, Xia looked at it carefully for a long time, called the maid to study the ink, picked up the painting, and wanted to finish the painting.

"There are two people outside who claim to be Lynsey's cousin and cousin, and they want to redeem her!" The little girl in green said smartly.

Xia Yinrou was startled, the hand holding the pen paused, the ink smeared on the lotus leaves, and a good red lotus fell into the old clothes, which had been destroyed. If it were a normal day, there would be some sadness, but today the Xia family has no time to take care of it.

The maid who was waiting on the side frowned and said, "She really has a cousin and cousin, madam...... How good is that! ”

Xia Yinrou took the towel handed over by the maid, wiped her hands, and thought, "Go and call Mother Liu!" ”

Without waiting for the little girl in green to reply, Zhengyang's slightly hoarse voice came from far and near.

"Mrs., Mrs., the master is back, and he brought the Marquis of Xiaoyao back!"

"Escape?"

Xia Shiqi said: "I just came out of the mansion, and I haven't even gone to the early dynasty, so this will ......."

Halfway through the conversation, Zhengyang lifted the curtain and came in, and said with a long breath: "Madam, master, as soon as the Hou Ye returned to the house, he went to the firewood room, and there were many Praetorian Guards outside, I don't know what happened?" ”

A look of surprise flashed in Xia Yinrou's eyes, and she trembled slightly, and she was stunned.

Seeing that her expression was wrong, Zhengyang hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and said meaningfully: "Madam, you must be coming for that maid!" ”

Xia Yinrou instantly cleared up, thinking for a long time, "You...... Go and tell the master, the maid's cousin, cousin came to redeem people, how should I deal with it? ”

Zhengyang's hand was a little forceful, and Zhengse said: "Madame wait with peace of mind, I'll go ahead and talk to the master!" ”

"Madam, does Mother Liu still want a slave to summon?" When Zhengyang came out of the room, the maid looked at his wife's face and hesitated.

Xia Yinrou waved her hand and motioned for her subordinates to go out.

After a while, there was no sound in the room, Xia Yinrou unconsciously walked to the window, pushed open the window, and the warm spring sun shone obliquely in, slightly dazzling.

Even the Praetorian Guards have been dispatched, who is this girl......

……

Er Ya followed behind Gangzi and went up the steps of the main room, and the little maid opened the scarlet felt curtain, only to feel that the golden light was shining in front of her.

She looked at the palatial hall nervously, and said with a trembling majesty: "Gangzi...... We...... We...... Ten thousand...... In case ......"

Gangzi was also blinded by the dazzling glory of this prime minister's mansion, he forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, and pretended to be calm: "Erya, don't be afraid, we are coming to redeem people in the light, I am afraid...... What are you afraid of! ”

Er Ya looked around and said, "Can ...... But why didn't anyone pay attention to us? ”

Gangzi thought about the conversation before Qi came in, straightened his back and said, "Don't worry, let's wait." There are many rules in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and we will talk back layer by layer, and no one will pay attention to us in half a day. ”

In a few words, Erya gradually warmed her heart. At this time, the little maid held the tray and served two hot teas.

After the others left, the second girl sat down half of her body and sighed: "This is the prime minister's house...... True...... It's so beautiful, those maids are dressed up ...... Just like ...... It's like a young lady. ”

"Hmph, it just looks glamorous!"

Gangzi looked disdainful: "Erya, you drink tea, don't be thirsty for yourself!" ”

……

The Gaofu in spring is full of grass and trees, the willows hang down the golden line, the peach spits Danxia, and there is quite a scenery to see.

Gao Zecheng and his entourage, but they didn't want to stop and watch, and the hurry of the line made all the slaves look sideways.

After walking a few meters, Gao Zecheng pointed his hand, and said in a slightly cold voice: "Master Hou, this is the courtyard where the fire occurred." ”

Li Yingjie followed the direction of his finger, glanced at it, and his heart skipped a few beats, and the secret path was not good.

His face didn't show anything on his face, and he arched his hand and said: "If you are nagging, please forgive me." Let's check it out first, Xiangye, please! ”

Gao Zecheng's eyes darkened, and his long arms stretched out, blocking Li Yingjie's way. (To be continued......)
