This summer, he can be regarded as sharp and sharp on weekdays, but he can't say that he can go, hesitate for a moment, and can't think of any way, so he walks out dejectedly.

The front foot just stepped out of the threshold, and the back foot had not yet followed, and I heard Lu Yi say behind him: "When there is no one else in the future, you'd better not step into my house, the villain who chews the root of the tongue in this world can't be avoided, although Lu has no reputation, but he still wants to keep a little innocent." ”

This was a bit clueless, she paused, hesitantly turned her head and asked, "The villain who chews the root of the tongue?" ”

"Today, in order to help you investigate the case, I have to entertain Miss Zhai, but I don't want to have a villain who says behind my back that I am a hungry ghost." Lu Yi turned around and didn't even look at her.

“……”

This summer finally understood the reason for this, and carefully recalled that there were footsteps outside the window at that time, and he didn't pay attention to it, thinking that it was Lu Yi outside the window, and he listened to all those words. At the moment, she was annoyed that she didn't cover her mouth, it was too late, and she didn't have a good way to think about it, so she had to say honestly: "My lord, I was wrong!" I was in a hurry to relieve Dayang, so I said those unobstructed words, you have a lot, spare me this time, I won't dare next time. ”

"Didn't cover your mouth?" Lu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly.

At this time, this summer's reaction was quick: "No, no, no, those words are simply black and white, right and wrong, and crazy!" Your Excellency, you can spare me this time. ”

Lu Yi still ignored her, his fingers seemed to inadvertently brush the frame of the crossed railing in the room, and said to himself: "It's still a little gray......"

Jin Xia was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly said: "I'll come, I'll come, I'll help you clean up!" ”

"Isn't it?"

"Properly and properly, making adults live comfortably is what a lowly job should do." She said courteously.

Lu Yi didn't speak anymore, turned back to the bookcase, and continued to look at his picture, raising his eyes and demeanor, as if he was only without her.

This should be the default meaning, this summer comprehended, turned out to get water and rags, rolled up his sleeves and began to scrub up and down. She has been used to doing these jobs at home since she was a child, and she is very easy and very profitable, and now she is working harder, hoping that Lu Yi will lose her anger and hook up the two, two, three dollars and silver.

After a while, Gao Qing came in, saw this, glanced at her a few more times, didn't dare to ask more, and arched his hand to Lu Yi: "What the lord ordered, I have ordered someone to investigate, I don't know if the lord has any other orders?" ”

"Nothing matters." Lu Yizheng dipped his pen in ink, raised his eyes and said to him, "You have worked hard for the past two days, go back and rest, and come back tomorrow morning." ”

"Thank you, sir, for retiring from your duties."

Gao Qing glanced at this summer again before leaving. The latter is having trouble with the legs of the table, and the lower part of the leg is decorated with curly leaves, which is good-looking, but the recesses are dusty, and it is very troublesome to clean, and she is picking with her nails and rubbing with a rag, and she is doing it vigorously. Looking at Lu Yi again, he looked light-hearted, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a cat playing with a mouse, and he didn't know why Lu Yi was embarrassed by this little catcher, he shook his head secretly.

Seeing that it was noon, Lu Yi didn't pay attention to this summer, and went out by himself, probably to eat. She became curious, took a rag to wipe the bookcase, and although her hands did not stop, her eyes went straight to the case.

It's the map, and it's the map of Yangzhou City, she didn't bother to find the location of the official post, then the punishment according to the prosecutor's office, and then found the Zhai house that she went to yesterday, and the dock where she got on the boat today......

He stared at the map for a long time, what was he looking at?

This summer's eyebrows recalled that Lu Yi's finger at that time was a diagonal line, extending to the upper left corner - the northwest! Her eyes fell to the northwest corner of the map, and she scanned it several times, but she couldn't find anything wrong.

Just when she was puzzled, Lu Yi had already returned, and seeing that she was still scrubbing, she frowned and said, "Haven't you cleaned it yet?" I'm going to rest. ”

"Alright, already!" This summer wiped it twice, put away his hand and smiled, "My lord, look, this table, this chair, this cabinet, I don't have to say anything about my work, it's so clean that I can lick it with my tongue, I don't believe you can try it." ”

Lu Yi didn't answer, and looked at her dryly.

This summer also realized that there was something wrong with this, and covered up the past with a sneer, and then laughed again: "My lord, you see that I also know that the way is wrong, that, that...... Silver...... Isn't it ......"

Lu Yi stared at her for a moment, and suddenly asked: "It's just two taels of silver, and if you throw it in the water, it's just a sound, can you be so groveling and aggrieved?" ”

Hearing this, the smile on this summer's face slowly faded, lowered his head, habitually rubbed the threshold with his feet, and said: "Of course you can do it, these people above you will naturally not know the difficulties of our heads." Nowadays, how many people have been raised by the East Factory, the West Factory, the North Town Fusi, and the South Town Fusi, and how much silver is spent every year, you must also have a number in your heart. On the contrary, the amount of money apportioned by the three law divisions is getting smaller and smaller year by year, and the higher authorities have repeatedly asked us to act frugally, and now it has cost me a month's salary just to rent a boat, and if the boss goes to report to Lord Liu, he will definitely be reprimanded by him to see his face. It is better for me to grovel than for him to grovel. ”

After listening, Lu Yi was silent, but listened to her again:

"Besides, it's just cleaning the house, not selling myself, I'm already good at it, and I don't feel wronged. Why do you look at me and think I look very aggrieved? ”

Lu Yi held his forehead, ignored her, and walked straight inside.

"Adults, adults...... The silver ...... "this summer perseverance accompanied by a smiling face."

"There are two things, first, you go out in the afternoon to see where Miss Zhai lives now, and give this to her for me." Lu Yi handed her a box, "Then inquire about her preferences on weekdays, what she wants to eat and play." ”

After sniffing tightly through the lid of the box, she looked up and asked, "Spices?" ”

"Musk and borneol."

Weighing the weight of the box, it is estimated that the spices in it are worth thirty or forty taels of silver this summer, but I don't know if the silver taels are Lu Yi's own money bag or from the public to report the account?

Lu Yi's words changed, and he suddenly looked at her and said: "The master of Shangguan Hall is very good, I see that you have a sister called Ye Tian, the Wu'an Gang has been here for a long time, if the Zhai family lives not far from the water, I may be able to find it sooner if I ask her." ”

"You asked me to go to the Shangguan Hall Master?" To be honest, because of the incident on the ship, Xia Yuan wanted to go to Shangguan Xi this summer, but when Lu Yi said this, she couldn't help but wonder if he saw through her thoughts.

"Questions?"

"No, no, no, no......"

Lu Yi then instructed: "The second thing, tonight, on the second watch, you go to the small building where Zhou Xian lives, light the lamp, and then open the window, just like the night Zhou Xian hanged himself, and then you wait inside." ”

Same as the night you hanged yourself? Still waiting? This summer's back was cold: "My lord, what are you going to do?" Or ghost hunting? ”

Lu Yi glared at her.

She had to ask carefully, "When will it be?" ”

"After the rooster crows three times, you blow out the lamp and go downstairs...... Also, don't tell anyone else about it. ”

Hearing this, this summer had a chill down my spine, and it was hard to refuse: "That...... Silver ......"

He said lightly: "This matter will be discussed later." ”

If it is a second discussion, then at least there is room for negotiation, and this summer I will happily receive the order.

At this time, noon has passed, and it is quiet in the official post, everyone is resting for lunch, and this summer is estimated to have rested their heads. Estimating that Yang Yue would leave food for herself, she turned to the stove to find food, but saw Yang Yue holding a radish in the stove and carving flowers.

"Da Yang? Do you have any food? ”

Yang Yue went to the side and opened his mouth in the cage drawer.

This summer opened the cage drawer, saw a bowl of golden egg fried rice, overjoyed, put the box aside, hurriedly took the bowl out and took the spoon and put it in his mouth.

"What is this...... Yang Yue also sniffed through the box, "Musk, and ice chips, this thing is not cheap, where did you get it?" ”

"Where is mine, it was Lord Lu who ordered me to send it to Miss Zhai," this summer swallowed a mouthful of food, "and asked me to ask her what she likes, eats, and plays on weekdays, it seems that he really cares about this Zhai girl." ”

Putting down the carved radish, Yang Yue straightened up, and his tone was already a little excited: "This is for Miss Zhai?" ”

"yes."

"I'll go with you!"

Unexpectedly, he would see her again so soon, Yang Yue kept turning around from stove to stove, and he was dazzled this summer.

"You said that she is not in good health, so she should eat something to nourish her qi and blood...... Stewed black chicken soup? It's not good, it's too meaty......" he muttered to himself, "stewed swallow vegetables?" ……”

"We can't afford it." Remind him this summer.

"You have to nourish your qi and blood, and you have to be delicious, refreshing, and it doesn't take much effort to eat, she still wants to eat it after she eats it......" Yang Yue racked his brains.

It's hard to hear this summer.

"Millet cake, do you say it's good?" After a long time, he finally came up with an idea.

This summer nodded like pecking rice, and agreed: "Okay, good, this is good, by the way, steam more, I want to eat it too." ”

The millet in the official stove room is ready-made, at the moment, Yang Yue hurriedly washed the rice and grinded the flour, all kinds of things were done carefully, none of them were careless, half an hour later, open the steamer, take out the steamed millet cake, wait for the heat to dissipate slightly, and carefully wrap the good looking with clean paper, and the rest is also wrapped in the arms of this summer.

"Let's go, let's hurry up, it's best to eat it while it's hot."

The two inquired about several docks infested by the Wu'an Gang, and went to the nearest pier first. At least dozens of boats were moored at the wharf, and the people were noisy and lively. Yang Yue was looking for a boat with the flag of the Wu'an Gang, and this summer he caught a glimpse of a person in the corner of his eye, who was very familiar, and then looked at it fixedly, and couldn't help but purse his lips and smile: "We are lucky today, and we will catch a master as soon as we come!" ”

Yang Yue followed her gaze, a big man, burly, with long hands and long feet, with his back to them and was giving the boat a rope, and a hat on his head was pressed low.

"Brother, is the old man willing to let you go out?"

This summer went around to the front of the man and said with a smile.

This person is Xie Xiao, who saw this summer, and then smiled: "Why are you here, I still wanted to look for you." ”

"What are you looking for me?" This summer teased in a low voice, "Didn't you get into trouble enough that night?" Half of Yangzhou City was shaken three times, if I were an old man, I would lock you up for three months, and you would not be allowed to go out for half a step. ”

"How did you know that Lu Dao ......" Xie Xiao stopped halfway through speaking, looking at her suspiciously. At this time, Yang Yue also came over and saluted him with a fist.

"Where's Sister Shangguan?" Look to the side this summer.

"She's not here, there was something in the gang yesterday, she went to Jiangning, and she hasn't come back yet."
