Qi Guanyu arched his hand and said: "The child is retired, you should rest early." ”

Exiting the study, Qi Guanyu looked at his father's figure reflected in the window paper, slightly stunned, and suddenly found that his father seemed to be much older, and his normally straight body was slightly rickety when no one was around.

Qi Guanyu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, so he couldn't bear to look at it more, so he turned his head and left. Halfway down the road, he met a guy walking out with a basket of things, and he couldn't help but ask, "What are these?" ”

The little servant saluted him and brought the basket to him, but did not open it, "It's all sundries that the master doesn't use, and if you put it on the land, you will take it out and dispose of it." ”

Qi Guanyu frowned, held the edge of the basket, stopped the other party from withdrawing his hand, and sniffed hard for a while.

That's right, it's the scent, and he can't be mistaken!

Ye Jinyu thought about it for a long time, and it wasn't until nearly five watches that he fell asleep.

Before her consciousness completely disappeared, she made a decision, and when she woke up, she would treat it as if nothing had happened yesterday and go next door to take care of Hou Ye as usual.

If he picks up someone again, then she will ...... The right is not heard behind the ear. Otherwise, she couldn't deal with an injury.

Be generous, you can!

On the other side, Li Sui impulsively gave an eviction order, and after seeing the little girl leave with a cold face, he already regretted it in his heart.

After blaming himself in frustration and reflecting for a long time, his anger today was indeed a little bigger, and even he didn't know where this anger came from.

Maybe it's because I didn't get a response for a long time, and I held it for too long, so I suddenly broke out when I was injured. Maybe the little girl changed too fast, which made him feel unreal, and the excitement was too great and he lost control.

Whatever the reason, he couldn't let himself continue to spiral out of control.

Now it's okay to give each other a moment to calm down. He didn't want Jin Yu to compromise with gratitude and gratitude.

But he never expected that the next morning, when he woke up, there was a familiar figure standing next to the bed. The other party was bending down to check on him, and inadvertently their eyes collided, the embarrassment in her eyes was fleeting, and then she reached out to probe his forehead like a nobody.

"If there is no fever, that's good, it proves that the wound is not infected." Ye Jinyu withdrew his hand and muttered to himself, then turned around to get his clothes and waited for him to change.

Li Sui hesitated for a moment, blurted out the words he wanted to say, "Change the lark to come in and serve", but he swallowed it back, raised his arm and signaled the other party to help him up first.

Ye Jinyu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly put down his clothes and grabbed his arm. She came to have a stick of incense, and before Hou Ye woke up, she was still thinking nonsense, and the first thing Hou Ye said when he woke up and saw her was whether he gave an eviction order.

Just before Hou Ye stretched out her hand, she was still very worried, she was afraid that her cheekiness would not be able to support the other party's cold language.

Fortunately, Hou Ye didn't say anything, and they all tacitly ignored last night's unhappy parting.

Both of them are trying to maintain the current peace, and at the end of the day, they live peacefully, but they always feel like a layer of paper between them, and the slightest carelessness will be pierced, what will be the situation at that time?

Ye Jinyu lay on the bed and thought about it for a long time without a conclusion that satisfied her, and she began to be irritable again, and finally she could only force herself to sleep.

When you fall asleep, you don't have any worries.

Is it possible? Of course it can't be, reality doesn't torture each other enough, and they continue to be entangled in dreams.

Under the starry night, Ye Jinyu and Li Sui stood side by side in front of the main entrance of Guangju Building, the long street was quiet and uninhabited, only the lanterns hanging in front of various shops emitted a faint light.

Ye Jinyu felt that he was holding something in his hand, and when he looked down, it was a letter.

"This ......"

Li Sui also saw it, observed the movement of the restaurant again, and said, "Let's go back to the post station first." ”

Ye Jinyu knew that this place was very dangerous, and the people in the restaurant might find her running away at any time and chase her out, so she released her mount with a nod.

She turned over, stretched out her hand to Li Sui, and said with a smile: "You are still injured, I will take you back." ”

Li Sui's eyes flashed with surprise, thinking that he had to change his way to get on her horse before, but now in order to repay the favor, she actually took the initiative to invite him to get on the horse. He smiled wryly and released his mount.

"I'm not hurt here, let's go."

Ye Jinyu withdrew his hand and watched the Hou Ye ride out of a distance, before picking up the loss in his heart and hurriedly pulling the reins to catch up.

"Even if you are not injured, you can ride the same horse, didn't you rub my horse a lot before, but now you are shy?"

"Shy? It doesn't exist, didn't you like to ride with me before, why are you so proactive now? ”

"It used to be, but now people want to be closer to you a little more, isn't it?"

“…… Speak well! "Love more book city

"Hey, a guy who has no interest, people don't spoil easily......"

"You'd better be quiet!"

"Tsk, you're starting to dislike me now? I said I had to do it before, a man's mouth deceitful ghost! ”

"I—I'm not disgusted, you ......"

"What's wrong with me, you just don't like it, and you don't admit it. If you change your mind, make it clear sooner rather than later, and we won't waste each other's time. ”

"The wicked sue first, and it is clear that you have changed...... That's it, let's not talk about this, there is a post station in front. ”

Ye Jinyu played a scoundrel for a while, and when he saw that this person suddenly couldn't move, he stopped and said: "Hmph, if you don't say it, don't say it, coward, just wait and regret it in the future." ”

Back at the post station, Qi Guanyu, Jing Xingzhi and Qin Miaoyin were indeed there.

Everyone greeted each other, Qin Miaoyin sat down next to Ye Jinyu, and asked in a low voice: "I heard that someone dared to stab in front of the gate of the Hou Mansion, the target is still my sister, are you injured?" ”

Although her voice was small, it could be heard by several people present, Qi Guanyu immediately looked over here, and his gaze swept from Li Yi to Ye Jinyu, "I have also heard about this, is the assassin really Miss Yuan San?" It is said that she was killed on the spot, but she didn't hurt you, did she? For the past two days, I have been unable to visit my grandmother and mother because I have been on official business, and I am afraid that I will scare them. ”

"Don't tell them, I'm unscathed, it was Master Hou who blocked the knife for me." After Ye Jinyu finished speaking, he deliberately looked at Li Yi next to him with eyes that he thought were very affectionate.

Li Yi silently turned his face away.

"God, it's Yuan Rong again, she's too bold, how many times have she hurt Sister Yi openly and secretly before, and my sister doesn't care about her. Now she dares to go to the Hou Mansion to assassinate her sister, fortunately, Brother Guanyu did not marry her at the beginning, otherwise the Qi family, which she would still be involved today, would not be at peace. Qin Miaoyin said indignantly.

Ye Jinyu noticed that Qi Guan's eyes were not quite right, and suddenly thought that he and Yuan Zhi had been friends for many years, and Yuan Zhi seemed to be just a gentleman, but he had never done anything excessive.

"Let's not talk about these troubles, let's talk about your gains first." Ye Jinyu patted the back of Qin Miaoyin's hand and took the initiative to change the topic.

However, Qi Guanyu and Qin Miaoyin's emotions did not return to normal so quickly, and Ye Jinyu hurriedly followed up with his own words: "Then let's start with us, we tracked down a restaurant, which is very strange, and I suspect that it has something to do with the robbers this time." And we also met a strange man in black, when I was arrested, he saved me, it seems that it should be a person from the restaurant, but he not only saved me but also left me a letter, let's take a look at this first. ”

Instead of a letter, the man in black left her, but a map with more than a dozen markings on it, but it did not say what they meant.

This map was too sketchy, as if it had been made in a hurry, and they could only guess that it was a map of Ziwei City, or a map of the bandits' lair.

Everything is still waiting for dawn to go to the Yamen to borrow a map of Ziwei City and compare it before you can make a conclusion.

Jing Xingzhi took Ye Jinyu's voice and said, "Miss Qin and I secretly visited all the rice grain stores, a total of sixteen, and ten of them sell a batch of rations of grain every day. And all this grain ends up going to the same family, which is what you call Guangjulou. ”

Qi Guanyu thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know if they have received a large amount of grain recently?" ”

Jing Xingzhi shook his head and said helplessly: "That Lord Shang said that he wanted us to make an unannounced visit, in order not to arouse suspicion, we only inquired about these." With no ledger in sight, everything that is known now can only be counted as speculation. ”

Qi Guanyu nodded, no longer asked, and said, "I went to Qianzhuang to check, and everything is normal so far, or they haven't transferred the disaster relief money through these places." But the restaurant my cousin said was indeed very problematic. ”

"Ten rice grain stores are involved at the same time, which shows that the power of these robbers covers a very wide range, and they can also blatantly borrow restaurants in the city to hoard grain, but I am afraid that there are other forces behind them as backers." Li Sui's fingers tapped on the tabletop, and said in a deep voice: "The people in the government can't be gullible, the matter of the restaurant will be hidden first, and when there is evidence to prove that Lord Shang is not a thief, it will not be too late to tell him." ”

Everyone agreed with his proposal very much, especially since the incident of the Yuan family had happened recently, and even Qi Guanyu, a person who worked in the yamen, began to be suspicious of the people around him.

Before that, he had always felt that the ink corruption case ten years ago had long been over, and the current Shanbei Province was the cleanest. But after some recent events, his perception has been slowly overturned.

He also reacted in hindsight, Jin Yu's dedication to Hong at the beginning, and now keeping Zhou Si, are all for the embezzlement of ink ten years ago.

She has always suspected that her father was wronged and wants to overturn the case for her father! So what is Hou Ye for?

He is an idle person who has been punished to think here, but he is so concerned about the affairs of Jinyu's parents, does he really want to help her, or is there another purpose behind it?

As early as when Wei Jicheng met Hou Ye, he had doubts in his heart, but he knew too little at the beginning, and even if he doubted, there was no accurate direction for him to guess.

And now, he can be sure that Hou Ye is by no means as indisputable and idle as he seems on the surface.

If he was really a romantic and incompetent person, Jin Yu wouldn't be so desperate for him.

Night and day are always in a matter of moments.

The sky outside the flower hall brightened, someone knocked on the door, and a short time ago an official walked in.

"You have worked hard, the villain came to inform you on the order of our Lord Shang that yesterday there were signs of bandit activities in the belly of Yunfu Mountain outside the city. Your Excellency has other official duties, so I would like to ask you to go to Yunfu Mountain on his behalf to find out. ”

Ye Jinyu and the others glanced at each other a few times, and then listened to Jing Xingzhi and asked: "Since it is Lord Shang's order, we should do our best, but we still want to ask the official for a favor, can we borrow the map of your city to take a look?" ”

A trace of vigilance flashed on the official's face, the map of each city is a confidential thing, and they actually opened their mouths to ask for this kind of thing, "Shaoxia's request, the villain can't be the master, it's better for you to go to Yunfu Mountain to investigate the case first, and the villain will go back to the yamen to ask the prefect for instructions, if the adult agrees, the villain will send the map over." ”
