"Master Zhang, when are we going to do it?" Rows of servants dressed in short suits gathered in the study where Zhang An was.

"Wait, wait for tomorrow morning when the royal opera troupe of the saint leaves the city." Zhang An turned his back to everyone and closed his eyes. At the same time, Xue Bowen, who sensed the danger, had just packed up his finesse and was about to leave the city overnight.

"Master, it's so late, where are you going?" Mrs. Xue stood at the door with the maid, looking at Xue Bowen who seemed to be going out in a hurry.

"Oh, just now Pu'an came to report that there is something strange in the west of the city, I'll go and see." Xue Bowen was excited, casually panicked, and kept walking towards the door. Out of the gate, Xue Bowen waved his hand, and Luan Pu'an, who was hidden in the dark, tiptoed past a carriage, and Fei'er was sitting in the carriage. Xue Bowen looked around, turned over and got into the carriage, Luan Pu'an gently urged the horses, and ran into the night.

"Yuchen, you go to Linglong Pavilion in person, be sure to ask Mother Xu and Qiu Tang to go out of the city with us early tomorrow morning." Boss Gu of Xiyuan twisted the walnuts and frowned slightly.

"Master, what are you ......" Yuchen was a little puzzled, before Master only suggested that Qiu Tang follow them to the Holy City, but why did he suddenly ask Mother Xu and Qiu Tang to go with him now.

"You just go and please." Boss Gu didn't give any explanation, just urged Yuchen to go to Linglong Pavilion quickly.

Seeing that the master insisted, Yuchen didn't say much, and hurried to Linglong Pavilion by the moonlight. Boss Gu listened to Yuchen's footsteps walking away, and his heart became more and more uneasy, if he hadn't met Si Duhan on the street today, he wouldn't have been so anxious to take Qiu Tang out of the land of right and wrong in Lingcheng.

"Mom, the jade dust of Xiyuan is here." Just as Xu's mother was about to fall asleep, she heard the sound of pearls outside the door.

"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll come." Mother Xu pondered for a moment, and decided to put on her clothes and see her, if it wasn't for the urgency, Boss Gu wouldn't have sent Yuchen over so late.

"I've been waiting." After a while, Xu's mother put on her clothes, turned the screen and came to the front hall, and at a glance she saw Yuchen in a snow-white robe sitting aside.

"Mother Xu, come here late at night to disturb, please forgive Mother Xu." Yuchen hurriedly got up and saluted.

"It's okay, come here so late, there must be something important about Boss Gu." Mother Xu asked with a smile.

"Yes, my master sent me here for one thing, that is, I must ask you and Qiu Tang to leave the Mausoleum City with us early tomorrow morning and go to the Holy City." Yuchen is not polite, and directly explains the intention.

"Oh?" Mother Xu's heart couldn't help but tremble, just for this matter, it seems a bit of a fuss to let Yuchen run so late, and to go or not, Boss Gu was just invited before, why do you have to go now? Mother Xu couldn't help but think of what Qiu Tang said to herself, and she also hoped very much that she could allow her to enter the Holy City with Xiyuan's troupe, and hoped that she could go with her. Thinking of this, Xu's mother also faintly realized that this matter was not trivial, but there were many things in it that were not said in public. Thinking of this, Mother Xu also made up her mind, "Okay, since Boss Gu has kindly invited, I will take Qiu Tang to join you at the city gate early tomorrow morning." ”

"A word?" Xu's mother's promise was beyond Yuchen's expectations, and he wanted to confirm it again.

"It's a deal." Mother Xu smiled and nodded.

"Master is still waiting for me to go back to my life, I won't disturb Mother Xu's rest, and we'll see you at the city gate early tomorrow morning." Yuchen took his leave.

"Okay, it's late at night, be careful on the way back." Mother Xu sent Yuchen out of the door.

"Thank you Mother Xu for your concern." Yuchen said goodbye again.

Looking at the back of Yuchen melting into the night, Mother Xu turned around and closed the door of Linglong Pavilion and called Pearl: "You go and call Qiu Tang, I have something to ask her." ”

"Ahh A heart-rending scream pierced the night sky of the Holy City. Accompanied by screams, there was a creepy sneer. Xiao Shunzi was holding a woman with flowers and branches but tears streaming down her face at this time, on the woman's arms, rows of bloody tooth marks on her body, and Xiao Shunzi's mouth full of small white teeth was also red with blood at this time. Since he received a reward from Zhang Wan, every day after Zhang Wan went to sleep, he had to go to Fireworks Willow Lane to find a girl to play. But he was no longer a complete man, and he vented his desires with his teeth and whip.

"Scream, scream, scream." Junko sticks out her tongue and licks the blood oozing from the woman's skin. The woman closed her eyes in pain and despair, and her petite body was hugged by Xiao Shunzi, unable to break free.

"What are you pretending, uncle, I have money, don't you just want money, serve me comfortably, my lord's money is all yours." Xiao Shunzi humiliated the girl in her arms, "Scream, why don't you scream?" Unable to hear the girl's screams, Xiao Shunzi bit down her chest, and the girl in her arms let out a gut-breaking scream again.

After almost an hour of torture, Xiao Shunzi finally got tired, he looked at the girl who was fainting to death in pain, and after kicking a few more feet in disgust, he took out a silver coin from his arms, threw it on the girl, tied the silk in his arms, and staggered out of the house.

"Ma'am?" Before dawn, Ke Xia heard someone knocking on the door, opened it and saw that Yue Shumei was standing alone at the door with a burden on her arm, "Madam, why don't you say anything in advance, so let me pick you up." Ke Xia said and led Yue Shumei into the house.

"I want to meet Chen Xiao." Yue Shumei entered the house, put the burden on her arm on the table beside her, ignored Ke Xia, and bluntly said that she wanted to see Chen Xiao.

"This ......" Kesha was a little embarrassed.

"What? Someone else is not there? Yue Shumei's brows were twisted together, and there was anger hidden in her tone.

"Yes, it's just that I'm afraid he will run into Madame." Kesha was hesitant. Since Chen Xiao began to store grain, his temper has become more and more irritable every day, and when he learned that Zhang Qingyan had been demoted and distributed, he was not in the grain stockpile, and spent all day drinking, drunk and obsessed.

Seeing Ke Xia's hesitant appearance, Yue Shumei guessed a rough idea, and said with a sneer: "It's okay, you just invite him here." ”

Ke Xia had no choice but to go to Chen Xiao. Nearly an hour of incense had passed, and Ke Xia dragged Chen Xiao, who was drunk and dreaming of death, to Yue Shumei. Yue Shumei didn't seem to smell the pungent smell of wine, and her brows didn't wrinkle: "Go, fetch a bucket of cold well water to wake him up." ”

Ke Xia threw Chen Xiao on the ground, turned around and called out to the two servants who were guarding outside the courtyard, and ordered the two to go and fetch well water.

"Ahem!" Chen Xiao was woken up by the cold well water, struggled to get up, and when he looked up, he saw Yue Shumei with bright eyes and bright teeth at the table. Without waiting for Ke Xia to hold Chen Xiao, Yue Shumei kicked Chen Xiao in the chest, and Chen Xiao felt that his internal organs were about to shatter.

"Presumptuous! How dare you be so rude when you see your lady! Kesha scolded.

This kick completely woke up Chen Xiao's wine, and when he saw the person in front of him clearly, he smiled: "Hehe, what madam, Zhang Qingyan's old bastard is no longer a national teacher, you don't have a master's shelf!" ”

Yue Shumei was not annoyed, she reached out and opened the burden in her hand, took out a silver ingot half the size of a palm from the burden and put it on the table, staring at Chen Xiao with two eyes. Chen Xiao saw the silver, just like a beggar saw the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, desperate to pounce. Unexpectedly, before her hand touched the silver, Yue Shumei kicked Chen Xiao away again.

"You stinky bitch! It's great to be rich! Chen Xiao was kicked twice by a woman, and he couldn't help but feel angry.

Yue Shumei didn't answer, and took out an identical silver ingot from her baggage and put it on the table, Chen Xiao's eyes were a little straight. Then, Yue Shumei took out two or three more and put them on the table, Chen Xiao watched one by one silver ingots appear in front of him like magic, his feet were weak excitedly, and he knelt in front of Yue Shumei: "Madam, madam, if Madame has any orders, just say, the lower officials will never give up!" ”

"Okay, then take me to see the food you stockpile." Yue Shumei was very satisfied with Chen Xiao, who was like a dog, and got up and patted Chen Xiao's head, Chen Xiao didn't get up, just knelt down and assisted with both hands, really like a dog, and took Yue Shumei to the tunnel of Tun Grain.

Mother Xu took a burden, pearls and begonias, and waited at the gate of Lingcheng. Last night, Xu's mother didn't ask anything from Qiu Tang's mouth, Qiu Tang just kept kowtowing, begging Xu's mother to leave the mausoleum with her, and the uneasy Xu mother packed up all the softness in the Linglong Pavilion, wrapped a burden, and told Quan Ye If there was anything wrong with the mausoleum, he must leave as soon as possible. After arranging everything, Xu's mother took the two girls to the city gate under the slight dew of the early morning. In the morning light, the carriage of Xiyuan came slowly, and the carriage was escorted by Lu Pengju and Hua Chen and others from the Lingcheng Desheng Dart Bureau. Seeing these familiar faces, Qiu Tang's heart calmed down slightly. The wound on my forehead didn't hurt that much anymore.

"Mother Xu has been waiting for a long time." Boss Gu jumped out of the car and said hello.

"I'm going to trouble Boss Gu all the way." Mother Xu handed the burden to Huachen and said shallowly.

"Don't worry, Mother Xu, girls, please get in the car." Boss Gu raised his hand and led the three of them to the two carriages behind the convoy, the last carriage was full of large and small boxes, thinking that it should be a singing outfit, and then a carriage surrounded by a dark cloth, which was prepared for them.

"Thank you, Boss Gu." Mother Xu walked towards the carriage, and Pearl and Qiu Tang followed closely after thanking Boss Gu in the back. After everyone settled down, Boss Gu returned to the car, and Lu Peng raised his whip and signaled the convoy to leave. The whip slashed in a beautiful arc in the air, and a crisp sound exploded in the air, and the motorcade squeaked out of the mausoleum.

Watching Xiyuan's carriage leave the mausoleum, watching Qiutang get into Xiyuan's carriage, Si Duhan's cloudy eyes overflowed with indescribable love, until he couldn't see the shadow of the convoy, Si Duhan turned around and walked towards Huichun Hall.

Si Duhan returned to the Rejuvenation Hall, did not check the accounts, did not check the medicine cabinet, he bent his back, entered the ancestral hall, and never came out.

"Master, Xiyuan's carriage has already left the city." Zhang An's study was pushed open.

"Let's do it......" Zhang An sighed, in the end, this wicked man still has to do it himself. I'm afraid I'm really going to hell.
