Chapter 33 Teased
"Ahem-" Lou Yiyi coughed a few times in disguise, and reminded: "Second Brother Xu, look, Feng Zhutou has something to know, let's actively cooperate." ”
"Yes." Only then did Xu Er Ye come back to his senses and invite Feng Zhutou to sit down in the house. "What Feng Zhutou wants to know, I, Xu Er, must know everything."
"Then it's going to bother Second Master Xu." Feng Zhutou said politely. "We want to know if Chen Youyu came here yesterday?"
"This ......" Second Master Xu really doesn't know." Wait a minute, I'll call the person in charge yesterday to ask. ”
After a while, the steward hurried over.
"Steward Xu, this is Feng Zhutou of the Yamen, I have some questions for you, you can cooperate."
"Yes." Steward Xu stood aside honestly, not at all as shrewd as he usually did in the gambling house.
Feng Zhutou asked Steward Xu again the question just now.
"Chen Youyu did come to the gambling house yesterday." Thinking back to the comings and goings of the gambling house yesterday, Steward Xu replied.
"And when did he leave?" Feng Zhutou asked.
"It's almost midnight." Steward Xu recalled.
"Are you sure?"
"Sure." Steward Xu affirmed. "Yesterday he lost a lot, and when he went out, he cursed, saying that he was going to buy wine and drink, and he would come back tomorrow to win the money back. At that time, I happened to be passing by, and I took a special look at him because I knew about Ping Niang. ”
Feng Zhutou nodded.
"Does he have any enemies in the gambling house?"
"Nope." Steward Xu shook his head. "There is a person who knows each other, and the two often gamble and drink together."
"Who?" Feng Zhutou asked.
"Jiang is insufficient." Steward Xu frowned. "But ......"
"But what's the problem?" Feng Zhutou's eyes lit up, based on his hunch of handling cases for many years, this Jiang Yu would be a key figure.
"In the past, as long as Chen Youyu came to the gambling house, Jiang Deficiency would definitely appear around him, but yesterday, Jiang Deficiency did not appear all day."
"Maybe Jiang didn't come because he didn't come yesterday?" Lou Jinjue guessed.
"No, it won't." Steward Xu shook his head again. "Even if Chen Youyu doesn't come, Jiang Yu won't not come, he almost lives in the gambling house."
"We got it." The question that should be asked was almost done, Feng Zhutou got up and thanked Second Master Xu and Steward Xu.
Lou Yiyi and the others also refused Xu Erye's retention, and left with Feng Zhutou.
"Thank you Miss Lou for today." Out of the gambling house, Feng Zhutou said gratefully to Lou Yiyi.
"No thanks, yes." Lou Yiyi waved her hand. "It's ......"
"Miss Lou has any difficulties, just say that those who can help will do their best." Feng Zhutou's senses for Lou Yiyi are very good.
Lou Yiyi rubbed her hands embarrassedly.
"I'm very interested in the case of Chen Youyu's murder, can I follow you to investigate tomorrow."
"It's not good." Feng Zhutou was a little embarrassed.
Lou Yiyi is also the young lady of Taifu Mansion no matter what she says, running back and forth after him, and if something happens, he can't bear it.
"Don't worry, I won't bother you, just watch from the side." Lou Yiyi hurriedly indicated.
"It's not." Feng Zhutou thought about it, but still expressed his worries. "We can't guarantee your safety."
"There's me." Leng Yan, who had been following behind him and barely spoke, suddenly spoke up. "It just so happens that I am also a little interested in Chen Youyu's case, Feng Zhutou should not refuse."
"Yes, the little sister's comfort is protected by us, you don't have to worry." Lou Jinjue reflected, glared at Leng Yan, and said.
"In that case, there is no objection to the lowly position." Feng Zhutou compromised, thinking that he would have to report to his own adults when he went back.
"That's it." Lou Yiyi glanced at Leng Yan gratefully, turned his head and said to Feng Zhutou. "When will you go to Jiang Wei's house tomorrow, we will be with you."
Feng Zhutou thought that he couldn't let the prince and them come to find him, so he calculated the time and replied: "I will leave tomorrow and go to the inn to find you." ”
"Okay." Lou Yiyi nodded.
There is only an inn in this town, and it is not far from the yamen, so it will not delay much.
After agreeing with Feng Zhutou, two or three people went back to the inn.
told Chu Fei and the three of them about the investigation of the gambling house, and when they knew that they could investigate the case together, the three of them were obviously more excited.
Thinking that it would be more tiring to run around tomorrow, the six of them had dinner and rested early.
Early the next morning, as soon as Lou Yiyi came downstairs, she saw Feng Zhutou and others waiting below.
"Am I late?" Lou Yiyi asked Leng Yan, who was sitting next to Feng Zhutou.
"No, it's not yet." Leng Yan's flat voice carried a hint of imperceptible tenderness. "Breakfast is ready, come over and have some food."
"Oh." Hearing that she wasn't late, Lou Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief. Sitting next to Leng Yan, he took the porridge in Leng Yan's hand and drank it slowly.
"This bun is good, it's stuffed with greens, you should like it." Leng Yan took another basket of steamed buns and put them in front of Lou Yiyi.
"I'll try." Lou Yiyi picked up a bun and took a bite. "Mmmm, delicious."
This bun is indeed to her taste, and Lou Yiyi gave Leng Yan a thumbs up.
Leng Yan didn't speak, but his slightly raised lips revealed his good mood.
It's a pity that Lou Yiyi, who was burying her head in hardship, didn't notice it.
"Feng Zhutou came so early, did you eat?" Halfway through eating, Lou Yiyi remembered Feng Zhutou on the side.
"I've already eaten it." Feng Zhutou replied respectfully. Yesterday, he reported the matter to his own adult, and the adult asked him to take care of his own proportions, not to offend a few people carelessly, but he didn't have to blindly flatter and flatter.
"Okay." Lou Yiyi sandwiched another bun and ate it in a big gulp.
Two steamed buns, plus a bowl of hot porridge, Lou Yiyi felt that she could do it again.
"Haven't they gotten up yet?" Lou Yiyi looked at Leng Yan.
"Jin Jue and Lin Qianyi are practicing martial arts in the back, and Xia Jiangwan and Chu Fei haven't gotten up yet." Regarding Lou Yiyi's questions, Leng Yan is always willing to say more.
"Why don't you go and practice martial arts." Lou Yiyi looked at Leng Yan curiously, she was called the first son, first of all, there is no need to say that her appearance is needless to say, she looks good wherever she looks, it is the type she likes, but unfortunately there are too many rivals, so she chooses to give up. The second is martial arts, I heard that the first son's one-handed swordsmanship makes it superb.
"I'm waiting for you." Leng Yan stared at Lou Yiyi seriously, and the early morning sun sprinkled through the window on their table, casting a layer of fine halo on Leng Yan, lining him like a cold fairy in the mountains.
"Don't look at me like that, it'll be misunderstood." Lou Yiyi shook her mind suddenly, only to feel that her heart was about to jump out.
"Misunderstanding what?" The light eyebrows and eyes were dyed with a smile, and after they were unfolded, they were like the orchids in the valley, quietly blooming.
"No more." Lou Yiyi hurriedly turned her head, covered her heart, and didn't dare to look at Leng Yan. "The old man's girl's heart is about to explode, and he can't control it like this."
"If you like to see it, I don't mind you." Hearing Lou Yiyi's whisper, the smile on the corner of her mouth became even more presumptuous, and Leng Yan supported Lou Yiyi's body and asked her to look at herself.
"Don't tease me, I can't help but tease." Lou Yiyi hurriedly covered her eyes. "I want to live a few more years, let me go."
Afraid of forcing people to be in a hurry, Leng Yan restrained the smile on the corner of his mouth and returned to his former coldness, but his voice still carried a trace of gentleness.
"Okay, I'm not going to tease you."
Through the cracks between her fingers, seeing that Leng Yan really didn't smile, Lou Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief and put her arm down. In the face of such a handsome guy, her pressure is still a little big, if she can't hold it one day, she will snatch people home, and those women in the capital will not kill her.
Feng Zhukuai was on the side, watching the interaction between the two from beginning to end.
Is he old? Can't you understand the way young people fall in love now? Or do all the young ladies and sons in their capital play like this?
He should be at the bottom of the table, not sitting here.
"By the way, your martial arts should be very powerful." Feeling that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Lou Yiyi found a topic and talked about it.
"Okay." Leng Yan replied with a little modesty. "Just enough to protect you."
Lou Yiyi: ......
"Did you light up any love skills today?" Lou Yiyi only felt that her little heart, which had just calmed down, began to beat supernuclei again.
"Nope." Leng Yan said calmly. "It's just telling the truth."
"Wait, let me be quiet." Lou Yiyi covered her heart again and turned around with a smile.
"Little sister, what are you talking about? How do you cover your chest, is there something uncomfortable in your body? When Lou Jinjue came back from martial arts practice, he saw Lou Yiyi smiling while covering his chest.
"I'm fine, brother." Lou Yiyi took a deep breath and suppressed the throbbing in her heart.
"Really?" Lou Jinjue looked at Leng Yan, her face full of disbelief. "Be sure to tell me when you're sick."
"It's really fine." Lou Yiyi hurriedly waved her hand, and in order to prove herself, she also hammered her shoulder. "Look, nothing at all."
"Okay then." Lou Jinjue went upstairs suspiciously. "I'm going to change my clothes and tell them to get up by the way."
"No need, I'm already up, just call Chu Fei." Xia Jiangwan didn't know which corner of the staircase he came out of, and looked at Lou Yiyi with a wicked smile.
Lou Jinjue didn't say anything, nodded at her, and went upstairs.
"Your smile ......" Lou Yiyi glared at Xia Jiangwan with a weak heart. What do you mean? ”
"What do you mean, huh?" Xia Jiangwan pointed at Leng Yan with his chin. "Guess how much I saw?"
"You're all bored." Lou Yiyi was annoyed and angry, picked up the bun on the table and stuffed it into Xia Jiangwan's mouth. "Eat your meal, don't let Feng Zhutou wait."
"No hurry, no hurry." Feng Zhutou, who was obviously sitting in the front row and seeing the end from the beginning, but felt that he had no sense of existence, added. "You go on as if I didn't exist."
Lou Yiyi: ......
