Ye Jinyu recalled it carefully, and didn't think of anything, so he could only shake his head.

Li Sui explained to her: "Xiangfu is a scholarly family, and the family background is solid, and a family like this will definitely raise a group of nursing homes." But we only saw a few small people walking around in the front yard, and it stands to reason that the front yard is the first line of defense, and it should not be so lax. ”

Ye Jinyu blinked, remembering that the garrison in the Hou Mansion, although it was in the form of being loose on the outside and tight on the inside, in fact, there were one or twenty guards patrolling back and forth in the front yard alone.

And when I was in Xiangfu just now, I really didn't see a person holding a stick or a sword.

"But when I came out later, I took a closer look, and the little guys who walked around looked unhurried, but they actually moved quite in an orderly manner. And their eyes, resolute and sharp, are not what a small servant who serves people all year round will have. ”

After listening to Li Suidi's words, Ye Jinyu recalled it carefully, because she noticed this, she suddenly realized that the bodies of those little guys looked very strong, walking like the wind, and every step was full of strength.

Ye Jinyu was puzzled: "Why do they disguise the nursing home as an ordinary servant? Isn't it strange that this is a special way of guarding you, and isn't it easier to attract the attention of thieves with such an arrangement? ”

The white fog dissipated in front of him, and as soon as Ye Jinyu's words landed, he woke up from his dream.

I wonder if this dream will still be related to reality?

When I went to visit Zhou Si in the morning, he was still the same, and his body was recovering very well, but his memory was always stuck in one or two decades ago.

I don't know if it was influenced by Si Zhou in the dream, but knowing that Zhou Si was the accomplice who killed her parents back then, she still couldn't hate him. In fact, after all these times of getting along, she felt that Zhou Si had a deep affection for her mother, how could he bear to kill her?

After thinking about it, the problem was still with the man hiding behind him.

On the other hand, Li Yi finally got the news of Qu Yu three days later, but disappointingly, the piece of mutton fat jade pendant was still not heard from.

The government didn't get it, and neither did Zhou Si's family, and they probably guessed the trajectory of Zhou Si's escape after being injured, and searched along the way, but they didn't find it.

Then there are only three possibilities left, one is that it was taken away by the assassin of Zhou Si, the other is that it was picked up by passers-by, and in the end, it may be hidden by Xing Jing.

"Continue to follow up on this matter until you find Yu Pei." Li Yi instructed Qu Yu.

Qu Yu was a little hesitant, and after thinking about it for a while, he decided to say it: "Master Hou, your subordinates know that you cherish Miss Ye and want to find out about her parents for her. But Zhou Si has nothing to do with the purpose of our visit, haven't you also tested the Ye family's bottom? The people who chased and killed Zhou Si before were not sent by the Ye family, and they were contrary to our goals, but we have already deployed too many people for this purpose, and our subordinates are worried that they will lose sight of one or the other. ”

Li Yi showed a lazy smile, and said in a tone like talking about the weather: "This pond in Shanbei Road has been calm for ten years, and who knows how much sludge, fish and shrimp are sinking underneath. It is true that the person who chased and killed Zhou Si was not sent by the Ye family, but the jade pendant that Ben Hou asked you to find may have something to do with the Ye family. This intricately intertwined, twisted and twisted, I can't tell which link is exposed, it can disturb the water of the pond and alarm the fish and shrimp lurking in the sludge. ”

Qu Yu didn't know that the mutton fat jade pendant he was looking for was very similar to the jade pendant that he had found from the deserter camp, so he said what he had just said. But now that I have heard what Hou Ye said, I immediately understand his intentions.

"It's the subordinates who are stupid."

Li Yi smiled indifferently, and said, "Ask someone to invite Miss Qin to come over." ”

Qu Yu replied and retreated.

Qin Miaoyin has become very honest since she returned to the Hou Mansion, she is still very worried about Hou Ye's intention to let her stay in the Xing family's courtyard, but after coming back for so many days, there has been no movement on Hou Ye's side.

Slowly, she relaxed her vigilance, believed in Sister Yi's comfort to her in the past, and set a goal in her heart. If Hou Ye hadn't moved today, she would have thought she was safe, and she would go to play with Sister Yi tomorrow.

It's a pity that the sky is not beautiful, just when she completely let down her guard, a sudden thunderbolt from the sky knocked her back to her original form in an instant.

She reluctantly followed the little girl into the Shen Pavilion, wanting to cry without tears.

She was taken to the flower hall to wait, and after fidgeting for a quarter of an hour, Hou Ye appeared.

"Miao, Miaoyin, please, meet Hou, Hou." Qin Miaoyin couldn't help but be nervous, and she couldn't speak anymore, "No, I don't know that Hou and Hou Ye called Miaoyin to come here and come here, what, what kind of reprimand?" ”

Li Yifang saw a helpless little white rabbit who was frightened by the beast, knocked on the table funny, and asked, "Is Ben Hou terrible?" ”

Qin Miaoyin nodded subconsciously, suddenly felt that something was wrong, and quickly shook her head again, her head lowered as if she could bury it in her chest.

"Then why do you think Benhou called you here?" Li Yi lazily lifted a little eyelid.

"For ...... For...... For ......" Qin Miaoyin stammered and couldn't say anything, her knees had already begun to weaken, if Hou Ye asked again, she, she would kneel down immediately.

"That's it, don't embarrass you, it's Jinyu who frightens you, it's Jinyu who is uncomfortable." Li Yi put away his joking thoughts, resumed his seriousness, and said in a deep voice: "I asked you to come over, there is something I told you to do, if it is done to my satisfaction, Ben Hou can do something for you." If you don't pay attention, your cousin will be in danger. ”

Qin Miaoyin's current mood can be described as ups and downs, sometimes happy and sometimes sad, the best sentence makes her panicked, she didn't even have time to think about it and immediately responded: "I, I will do it, I will do it with my heart." ”

Li Yi nodded with satisfaction, his tone was still serious, "You go to live in the Xing family's courtyard for a while......"

Qin Miaoyin was taken aback, almost thinking that she was hallucinating, she looked at Hou Ye incredulously, and listened to him continue: "Keep an eye on Xing Gongzi's movements for Ben Hou, and by the way, check if he has a mutton fat jade pendant." With that, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it over. sweet potato

Qin Miaoyin didn't dare to think about it, so she quickly took the thing first, unfolded it and saw that there was a pattern of a jade pendant painted on it. At this time, the brain dared to continue to turn, why did Hou Ye treat her cousin like this? What kind of behavior did my cousin do that provoked Master Hou?

Li Yi saw her tangled and thoughtful expression, so he said again: "As long as you do things wholeheartedly and don't fool Benhou, no matter what the result is, Benhou will fulfill his promise." Xing Gongzi's safety in the future will be tied to you, do things well. ”

Qin Miaoyin shuddered, even though she was unwilling to agree, she also knew that she had no right to refuse.

"Also, don't tell Jin Yu about this beforehand." Before she left, Li Yi gave one last advice.

Ye Jinyu was only told by the subordinates of Qingyun Garden that Miss Qin had gone back to Qin's house and would come back after a while when Qin Miaoyin left to look for her.

Ye Jinyu asked the reason, and they couldn't answer why, they only knew that the matter of Miss Qin's return home was agreed by Hou Ye himself.

Hou Ye agreed, could it be that something happened to the Qin family?

Ye Jinyu was worried about Qin Miaoyin's condition, so he took the initiative to go to Shen Pavilion to ask for a meeting with Hou Ye, wanting to ask the reason, but Hou Ye told her: "Miss Qin only said that there was something at home and wanted to go back to live for a while, but she didn't explain the reason. ”

"That's what you said yes?" Ye Jinyu looked at him in disbelief.

Li Yi shrugged, "Otherwise?" In the final analysis, Miss Qin's stay has no impact on Ben Hou, and Ben Hou has no intention of caring about the Qin family's affairs. ”

Hearing this answer, Ye Jinyu was speechless.

After a while, she blessed herself and said: "Miaoyin and I are like sisters, if her family is really in trouble, I can't stand by." So I want to go to the Qin family to see, if I can help, it is naturally incumbent, if not, at least I can comfort and comfort Miaoyin, and ask Hou Ye for permission. ”

"The matter...... Ben Hou did not allow it. Li Yi groaned and replied as a matter of course.

Ye Jinyu was angry, but looking at Hou Ye's undoubted eyes, he quickly calmed down. She knew that no matter how she entangled, Hou Ye would not agree.

It's just that the more he doesn't make it clear, the thorn in her heart can't be pulled out, and the more worried she is about Miaoyin's condition.

Anyway, she can enter and leave the Hou Mansion freely now, and she is still worried that she will not be able to go to the Qin family.

She returned to Fuyuan and thought about it carefully, Hou Ye had been sending people to protect her secretly, so these people must have been watching her every move at all times. Therefore, there is a high chance that he will be stopped when he goes to Qin's house, so it is better to let Ling Zhao inquire about the news first.

Maybe she really thinks too much, and Miaoyin will go back when she is homesick.

The next day, Ling Zhao went out to inquire about the situation of the Qin family, but he suddenly ran back not long after he went out.

"Girl, I heard a lot of people talking on the street just now, there was an accident in the workshop, and now the entire workshop is surrounded by people from the government."

Ye Jinyu frowned, a little panicked, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ling Zhao said: "The murder case said that a guest was killed in the workshop, it seems that it happened two days ago, and the workshop has been closed for two days. ”

Ye Jinyu clenched his fists, did it really come true, the reality is about to echo the dream again.

"What about the people in the workshop?" Ye Jinyu asked again.

Ling Zhao shook his head and said, "I'll come back to inform you as soon as I hear the news, I don't know how Miss Qianzhong is doing now?" ”

"I remember that Qianju picked up Yunqing three days ago, saying that he would send it back today?" Ye Jinyu said with his eyes narrowed.

Ling Zhao nodded violently, "Miss Qianzhong usually only takes Qing'er to live in a small garden outside the city, I am just worried that if there is a murder in the teaching workshop, the people from the government will look for her outside the city." ”

"Send someone out of town to fetch them back at once." Ye Jinyu commanded solemnly, and seeing that Ling Zhao was a little embarrassed, he added: "You go first, I will go to explain the situation to Hou Ye." ”

Ling Zhao ran away with confidence.

Ye Jinyu went to Shen Pavilion to ask to see Hou Ye, but learned that Hou Ye had just gone out. She couldn't stay in the house anymore, so she took a carriage to Qi's house to inquire about the situation.

"You mean that case in the workshop?" Mrs. Qi shook her head worriedly, "It's really a crime, I heard that the person who was killed was the housekeeper of the Yuan Mansion, and he was most valued by Yuan Sima, and he was also Mrs. Yuan's cousin, who had been in the Yuan family for twenty or thirty years, and later even changed his surname, and he was particularly loyal to the Yuan family." Now that he is killed, it makes Yuan Sima and Mrs. Yuan uncomfortable. ”

"How did he die?" Yuan and Yuan, I didn't expect that this dream was related to the Yuan family, Ye Jinyu was very surprised.

"It is said that he was hanged from a tree." Mrs. Qi shuddered, gently stroked her arm, shook her head and said, "Let's not mention such bloody things, don't scare your mother-in-law." ”

Ye Jinyu didn't ask any more questions, she thought of Xiang Hui in her dream again.

"Uncle, I want to embroider a purse for Master Hou, but my daughter is not good, so I have the cheekiness to ask my aunt to give me advice, okay?" Ye Jinyu grabbed Mrs. Qi's arm and was affectionate and coquettish.

It's rare to see her niece so coquettish, Mrs. Qi's heart suddenly softened, and before she could speak, the old lady waved her hand first, "Go, go, my old guy is useless, and I'm thinking about resting for a while." ”
