Before entering the courtyard, a family member trotted all the way over, "Miss, Miss, wait!" ”

"Shouting what, shouting what? I'm afraid that others won't hear it," Bai Qi scolded angrily, and the family immediately shut up.

When he got closer, Bai Ji asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Jia Ding glanced at Jin Su with a wince, and then took out the envelope in his sleeve and handed it to Bai Qi, "Someone outside sent a letter to the eldest lady just now, and he didn't say who he was, and said that the eldest lady would naturally know after reading the letter." ”

Bai Qi took the letter.

Jinsu asked, "What about the man?" ”

"It's gone."

"Well, I see, you go down," Jinsu said calmly.

The family answered "yes", lowered his head, and left quickly.

Bai Qi took the letter, a little overwhelmed, looked at Jinsu, and asked, "Miss, this-"

"Open it and see!"

So, the two of them stood at the door of the Hanlian Courtyard and did not go in.

Bai Qian checked up and down twice, but did not find anything abnormal, and the words "Jinsu pro-Kai" on the envelope could not be seen whose handwriting.

Carefully tear open the envelope, take out the letter inside, and unfold it in an orderly manner.

"Huh? How is this a blank slate! ”

Bai Qi looked at it again and again, and held it high, and through the sunlight, it seemed that he didn't find any handwriting.

Jinsu took the envelope and glanced at it, and then looked at the white paper in Bai Qi's hand, she instantly understood, and immediately her face was slightly gloomy, and she said, "Something happened!" ”

"What's wrong?" Bai Qi asked nervously.

"Let's go in first!"

Seeing that Jinsu was so serious, Bai Qian also realized the seriousness of the problem to some extent, and immediately folded the letter and handed it to her.

After entering the house, Jinsu ordered Mei'er and Xing'er to go out, and they were not allowed to enter the house to serve without calling them.

Bai Qian closed the door, and the two of them bypassed the screen and went to the inner room.

Without waiting for Bai Qi to ask, Jin Su put the envelope and stationery on the table, and said solemnly, "This letter was sent by Qingfeng." ”

"What?" Bai Qi opened his mouth wide and asked in disbelief, "Then why didn't he write a word?" ”

"We are in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and we don't have much freedom to come and go, and now Bai Zhi is not here, so it is somewhat inconvenient to get in touch. So I made an appointment with him to contact me in this way if there was an emergency. I didn't write anything, because I was afraid that the letter would fall into the hands of others, which would be bad for us! ”

"What kind of emergency would that be?" Bai Qi's brows were furrowed, and he looked very worried.

Jin Su took a deep breath, slowly walked to the coffee table and sat down, and said coldly, "I'm afraid this matter is not simple!" ”

Bai Qian leaned up and sat on the other side of Jinsu, staring at her intently, as if waiting for her to continue.

Jin Su sat for a while, his fingers tapping on the table unconsciously. Suddenly, he stood up violently, and startled Bai Qi.

"Let's go, we have to get out now."

"But, is it appropriate? Do you want to send someone to the Rosewood Courtyard to say something," Bai Qi asked.

"No need, there are people in the Rosewood Courtyard who are busy today, where can they take care of me. You ask Xing'er to go and talk to the housekeeper, and say that we will go to Jiahe Pharmacy to get some medicinal herbs, and we will definitely be able to come back before dark. ”

"Hmm," Bai Qi nodded in response.

Then, the two of them pretended to go out calmly.

As soon as he walked around the corner of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Jin Su motioned to Bai Qi to send a signal flare to Qingfeng. This is a unique signal between several of them, and Qingfeng should be able to see it as long as he is still in this Kyoto City.

After that, the two of them went to Jiahe Pharmacy in an orderly manner.

At this time, Kong Yi happened to go to the doctor.

But the people in Jiahe Pharmacy are very familiar with Jinsu and regard her as half of the shopkeeper, so she can be regarded as free to act here.

Jin Su asked Bai Qi to pick some medicinal herbs below, and he went upstairs and waited for Qingfeng.

About the time of a pillar of incense, there was a knock on the door, "Knock knock!" ”

"Come in!"

"Master," Qingfeng arched his hand towards Jin Su.

Jin Su pointed to the chair next to her, "Come and sit down!" ”

As soon as Qingfeng sat down, he said apologetically, "Master, something happened!" ”

"What's wrong?"

"The secret stake that contacted Liang Guogong is gone, I've been looking for it for a day and a night, there are no clues at all, no one alive, no corpse is dead."

"Knock knock," Jinsu's hand, one by one, gently tapped on the table, which was an action she would subconsciously do when she was thinking.

After a long time, Jin Su asked, "Could it be—is it Liang Guogong?" By the way, what did Liang Guogong look for you later? ”

"As the master expected, his target is His Royal Highness and Lord Xiangguo! However, I also refused according to what you said," Qingfeng said.

"Hmm-"

Seeing that Jin Su didn't speak, Qing Feng continued to ask, "Does the master think that Liang Guogong did it?" ”

"If it's really Liang Guogong's doing, it's good, I'm afraid I'm afraid of ......"

"The master is worried, is it possible that His Royal Highness is the eighth?" Qingfeng pondered.

Jin Su nodded heavily, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

"There is another thing, there is a word from Shanxi, saying that it is the loss of three people, one of whom was taken away by the people of the Eighth Highness."

"How can it be so fast? Eighth Highness, they have only been on for a few days, have they found our people so quickly? Jin Su asked incredulously.

"According to my guess, His Royal Highness the Eighth quietly sent a wave of people to investigate in advance before leaving."

"Well, most likely! His Royal Highness is scheming, resourceful, and has a large number of capable people, as far as the secret guard beside him is concerned, in terms of kung fu and means, he is better than us! ”

Jin Su frowned and continued, "Now, the top priority is to find out who was taken away and how many things were involved. We must be prepared for the worst! ”

"Well, I have already sent a book to Bai Zhi and asked her to investigate, but most of the people who stayed in Shanxi participated in that assassination!"

"Qingfeng, the situation is complicated now, whether it is His Royal Highness or Liang Guogong, they are all characters that are not easy to mess with. There are too many eyes and ears in Kyoto City, and if you don't pay attention, you will miss your whereabouts, so just in case, you should withdraw first! Jin Su solemnly arranged.

"Master, I'm ......"

"There are many of our Zhuangzi outside the city, you can choose a place to hide, if there is really a case, it is also offensive and defensible! But if you stay in Kyoto City, not only will you not be able to help us, but you may also be involved in Yi Xueju and Jiahe Pharmacy. ”

Qingfeng hesitated slightly, but after thinking about it, he still responded, "Yes!" ”

"Also, you go and arrange to divide some of the evidence we collected before about the prince's bribery into two parts, one for Lord Shangshujin of the Criminal Department, and the other for the people of His Royal Highness the Eighth Highness."

"Master, what does this mean?" Qingfeng was puzzled.

"Now, we are trying to survive in the cracks, if we don't let the two tigers fight each other, how can we have a chance to breathe!" Jin Su said without changing his face.

"Okay, don't dare to say anything else, let's just make a bunch of things about the prince!" Qingfeng said confidently.

"Well, he also commits many injustices and will kill himself, but a hundred-legged insect will die without stiffness. We still have to be careful, we must make sure that the evidence that leaks out of us has nothing to do with us! ”

"Hmmm! Got it! ”

Jin Su got up and admonished, "You must be careful! Get things done, go out of town as soon as possible, and if you have something, contact us in the way we agreed before! ”

"Well, the subordinate has retired," Qingfeng arched his hand, took two steps back, opened the door, and flew away like the wind.

Jin Su came out slowly, closed the door casually, held on to the guardrail, and looked up at the sky.

A sound of footsteps sounded, and then Shi Nan's voice was heard.

"Su'er, what are you looking at? How long have you been here? Do you want to stay and have dinner together? ”

Jin Su silently put away the sadness on his face, and when he turned his head to look at Shi Nan, he already had a shallow smile.

"Uncle Nan, why are you back? Didn't you say that you went to the clinic with the master? ”

Shi Nan replied with a smile, "I went to the clinic, but I saw the signal you sent, so I came back to see, is there anything I can help?" ”

"No need, I've already handed over some things in the gang to Qingfeng."

As he spoke, Jin Su took Shi Nan and went downstairs, "Oh, by the way, you tell the master, Qingfeng won't go back to Yi Xueju if he has something to do for a while." ”

"Well, good!" Heather responded cheerfully.

When he arrived downstairs, Bai Qi was carrying a bag of things in his hand, and stepped forward and shouted sweetly, "Uncle Nan! ”

"Eh," Shi Nan replied with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, but Xiao Baiqi seems to have grown taller again!" ”

"Hey, what? I'm not a kid anymore, how can I still grow taller? ”

Bai Qi pouted, which was no different from a child, amusing both Jinsu and Shi Nan.

Jin Su raised his eyes to look at the increasingly gloomy sky outside, and said, "Uncle Nan, it's going to rain, we have to go back to the house first." ”

Shi Nan was a little reluctant, but pretended to be relaxed and said, "Okay, you guys are careful!" The next time I have the opportunity, I will go to Yi Xueju, I, I have been thinking of two new dishes for a while, and I want you to give a review. ”

"Okay, Uncle Nan's craftsmanship must be no worse!" Jin Su replied with a smile.

Then Shi Nan sent the two of them to the door, and they parted.

The sky is getting more and more gloomy, a heavy rain is inevitable, and the people on the road are also running in a hurry.

Jin Su urged, "We have to hurry up, otherwise it will really rain in a while, and the medicinal herbs will be miserable!" ”

"Good!"

As he spoke, the two of them invariably quickened the pace of their feet, and at the moment when they just stepped into the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, a downpour of rain came from the sky.

Bai Qi said luckily, "It's so dangerous, if we slow down a little longer, we will be drenched in soup." ”

From the door to Hanrenyuan, in addition to walking the garden, you can also go around from the corridor, although the road is farther, but this can be less rain.

Jinsu has never liked to walk under the cloister, because of this road, Rosewood has become a must-pass place.
