Chapter 022: The situation has changed
In her previous life, she was a foodie, and she has never been a picky eater, but this ancient food is too desperate, and it is full of cakes and sweets, or a daunting crystal elbow, Rao is a top foodie and will inevitably be tired.
Su Xue ate a few bites absentmindedly, but couldn't help but look out the window again and again, and the Xiangyun Inn opposite was still lit up everywhere.
The ladies and ladies of the Jiang Mansion do not extinguish all the candles when they go to bed at night, but leave a lamp with a faint light, so that it is not too dark or too dazzling.
Su Xue silently moved her gaze back, although it was no longer clear which bedroom the second wife was in, but thinking that there was a candle lit and a maid guarding it, if something really happened, there would be movement......
"Miss, what's wrong?" Miao Meng often shouted like this, she knew that Miss had often been in a daze since she fell last time, so she and Qianrou were used to shouting like this, as if they thought that this would call Miss's soul back.
Su Xue was indeed called back to her senses, raised her eyes to look at Miao Meng who was standing aside, pulled her over and sat down together, and pointed to the dinner on the low table: "This is not Jiangfu, there are not so many rules, you can eat together." ”
Miao Meng pursed her lips and smiled, pulling the corner of her clothes and sitting down, but she still didn't dare to move her chopsticks.
Su Xue took a pair of chopsticks and sent them to her bowl, she shouted again and again that she didn't dare to bother Miss, so she moved the chopsticks herself.
Su Xue paused and said, "When you clean up the dishes later, by the way, ask the shopkeeper who booked this inn." ”
Miao Meng didn't think much about it, and nodded while eating. After finishing the meal, Miao Meng quickly put on the veil again and prepared to go out with the dishes.
Su Xue looked at Miao Meng weakly, so the veil was not of much use at all, and it was no wonder that she was recognized. Thinking about it, her heart moved, and she said a few more words to Miaomeng, Miaomeng was surprised, but she also nodded with a smile a little excited.
Miaomeng asked the shopkeeper according to Su Xue's meaning, but the shopkeeper frowned and said, "Those people look like they are walking the rivers and lakes, they didn't report their names, and I didn't dare to ask more." And they've all paid for the room and left. I was about to come up and tell you, if you wish, you can now move out of the storeroom, there are so many empty rooms, you can move in as soon as you have them cleaned up. ”
Miaomeng blinked, a little disbelieving: "In the middle of the night, after leaving the room, where do they live?" ”
The shopkeeper shook his head: "Who knows?" Those people are not easy to mess with, and I don't dare to ask more. ”
Miaomeng told Su Xue about this, Su Xue suddenly felt cold, that person left in a hurry, did it have anything to do with her? Although he didn't continue to ask questions at the time, judging from his expression, he didn't believe her words.
"Miss, do you need to move out?" Miaomeng walked up to Su Xue with her burden in her arms, with anticipation in her eyes.
Su Xue came back to her senses, looked out the window again, shook her head and whispered, "No." ”
Miaomeng put the burden back with some disappointment, and said while cleaning up: "The little one has already told the shopkeeper just now, but now it's getting late, and the things that the young lady wants can only be delivered tomorrow morning." ”
Su Xue looked out the window with faint eyes, as if she hadn't heard Miaomeng's words, and after a pause, she nodded again: "Hmm." ”
Miao Meng made the bed and went to bring hot water again. Su Xue freshened up and went to bed. Miao Meng put on a coat and rested on the low table next to the bed.
It was late at night, Su Xue still kept her eyes slightly open, staring intently out of the window, but nothing happened that night, and I don't know when she finally couldn't hold it anymore and fell asleep.
The night was silent, and a group of men in black walked lightly through the deserted street, and ran into a small alley to meet the people inside.
"The second young master suddenly recalled his subordinates, could it be that the situation has changed?" The man in black spoke.
The person waiting in the alley was Shen Yifeng, who slowly turned around, but did not speak.
Pomegranate saw the stiffness of the atmosphere, so she had to open her mouth and ask softly: "The second young master left the inn in a hurry, could it be that the Jiang family found something?" ”
Shen Yifeng smiled lightly: "You don't have to ask. Then he said to the man in black: "Jiang Suxue's let go in advance." This time, the horse racing festival lasted for three days, and the emperor attached great importance to it, and the prince wanted to take the opportunity to win the hearts of the people, so he also participated in the horse racing festival. Tomorrow is the one who can't afford to miss it. ”
The man in black took the order and left, leaving only Shen Yifeng and Pomegranate in the alley. Pomegranate thought for a while, and asked with some regret, "Second Young Master...... Could it be that Miss Jiang really didn't enter Beijing? ”
Shen Yifeng smiled coldly, they had been observing the carriage of the Jiang Mansion in the dark before, but the young lady of the Jiang Mansion would be veiled, and it was not easy to confirm. Later, Neiying in the Xiangyun Inn came back and reported that there was no Jiang Suxue among the people this time. At that time, Shen Yifeng was stunned, could it be that he was really said by Pomegranate, Jiang Suxue really didn't come to Beijing this time?
Shen Yifeng planned very well, and booked the inn opposite the Xiangyun Inn early, and he had already surveyed it, and there was a large window in the renovated warehouse, which was just right to see the opposite side clearly.
The news I got was that Jiang Suxue was not at Xiangyun Inn, and such a good opportunity was missed in vain, and Shen Yifeng was a little disappointed. But thinking about it again, is it really because he released the news that he would not come to participate in the horse racing festival, so Jiang Suxue also gave up coming to Beijing?
Thinking of this, he was inexplicably happy in his heart, he only felt that Jiang Suxue was unscrupulous and shameless, if she really gave up coming to Beijing for such a reason, it would be a rare soft spot.
But it's not that simple.
"Jiang Suxue is already here, and it's in the inn where we stayed before." Shen Yifeng's voice was a little heavy.
Pomegranate was stunned, a little unable to keep up with Shen Yifeng's thoughts, how could Jiang Suxue be in their inn, could it be that she had already been arrested? So why evacuate the inn in that case?
"What's even stranger is that she actually pretends not to know me......" Shen Yifeng recalled with interest Jiang Suxue's reaction after seeing him, and suddenly sneered, "I want to see what tricks this Jiang Suxue wants to play." ”
The more pomegranate listened, the more confused she became, Jiang Suxue had a flamboyant temperament, and there was no trace of everyone's beautiful reserve in her body, she behaved even more excessively after she fell in love with the second young master, and even didn't care about the reputation of her daughter's family, and sent a lot of love poems that were so numb that she couldn't hear it. The pomegranate has grown so big, the first time I saw such a shameless woman, she was still a young lady in the boudoir, if she wanted her to say, even the girl in Piaoxiang Building knew how to be reserved than Jiang Suxue.
What does Jiang Suxue want to do this time? Pomegranate was puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask more, just quietly waiting for Shen Yifeng's orders.
Shen Yifeng took out a packet of medicinal powder from his arms and handed it to Pomegranate, thought about it, and added: "Let's keep an eye on the racecourse tomorrow to see if Jiang Suxue is with the Jiang family."
Pomegranate took the packet and nodded solemnly.
