Chapter XXXVIII
"Sass...... Sassy ...... Whoosh!"
In the quiet willow mansion at night, the shuttling sound of a black shadow is hidden in the cold autumn wind. No, two to be exact, except that one of them is more vocal than the other.
The two black shadows traveled two routes to the same place in Liufu without interfering with each other, the account office. When both of them arrived at the account room, one gently pushed the door open, the other gently pushed the window, and when they entered lightly, they closed the door and window, and at the same time took out the fire fold from their arms and opened it. So at the moment when the two shimmers invaded each other's illuminated realm, the two men in black also discovered each other's existence. While both sides were surprised by each other's silent movements, they also began to test each other.
"Who are you, what are you doing in Liufu?" Qiqin was dressed in black, wearing a silver painting cloud mask on her face, and there was a trace of nervousness in her heart. She just wanted to come and see the servant brochure in this house, but who would have thought that she would run into someone else. She didn't have any weapons with her, so hopefully she wouldn't fight for a while.
"Who is the girl, and what are you doing here?" Shen Yue's pair of Ruifeng eyes under the silver snake mask carefully looked at the woman in black in front of him who was only half a head shorter than himself through the faint light. This woman was born so tall, and her body was so plump, she was somewhat similar to the Hu people.
"Hmph, it's none of your business. Qi Qin looked at Shen Yue, and when her eyes moved to the snake entanglement symbol on Shen Yue's mask, her eyes lit up and asked, "Are you from the Bone Oblivion Pavilion?"
"Oh?" Shen Yue saw that Juqin was staring at his face, so he raised his hand to stroke the snake pattern on the mask, raised his lips and smiled: "You can recognize this snake entanglement sign here, the girl is a person dyed in the mist?"
"Exactly. Qi Qin knew the identity of the other party, and although there was a little less vigilance in her heart, she was a little more disgusted, "The people in the Bone Oblivion Pavilion are so powerful, they almost hurt our lord in a scene." ”
Seeing the other party's sarcastic remarks, Shen Yue knew that he was at a loss and did not fight back, but just apologized: "The matter of Lord Ling happened suddenly, our Lord Feng said that when Lord Ling wakes up, he will definitely come to the door to apologize." ”
"Hmph!" Seeing that the other party's apology was quite sincere, although she was still thinking about it in her heart, she didn't pursue it on her face, so she walked straight to the account counter with a persistent fire fold. Shen Yue also followed when he saw it.
"In Shen Yue, I don't know the girl's name?" Shen Yue deliberately concealed his identity as the Phoenix Master, he walked to the counter and watched Ji Qin turn over the cabinet with one hand, worried that she would be inconvenient with one hand but make a move, so he stepped forward and grabbed the fire fold in her hand to hold it for her.
Shen Yue inadvertently touched the hand of the servant when he grabbed the fire, but the servant book was so busy that he didn't notice it at all, "I won't tell you." ”
was rejected so bluntly by Lianqin, Shen Yue felt a trace of embarrassment in his heart, but he didn't care, "It's okay, the future will be long." He muttered quietly, and then asked, "The girl is looking for the servant brochure of this Liufu?"
"Nonsense. Qi Qin was a little impatient, "Didn't you send us a letter during the day saying that you wanted to forge evidence of Ming Yuelan's collusion with Nafu Wei? We must first know who this Fu Wei's surname is and where he is staying in the courtyard." ”
In fact, Lord Feng wrote that letter just to inform them of this matter, and as for the specific Lord Feng, he would have left it to him, otherwise he wouldn't have appeared here tonight. Shen Yue saw that Jiaqin was struggling to find it there, so he didn't say what was in his heart. Although they had only spoken a few words when they had just met, he could see that the girl was a little angry. If she knew that she had run in vain, it would not be good if she was in a hurry to get into trouble with him and then recruit people over, and he couldn't fake the scene without mercy like Lord Feng.
"Found it. She put the servant's book she had found from the cabinet on the counter and flipped through it, and it didn't take long to find a circled name in the roster of the guards. Liu Zhengqian has been busy with Liu Zhilan's affairs in the past two days, so if a palace guard is missing, he can only record it temporarily, and deal with it when he has free time. After all, the palace guard, as the defense force of the Liu Mansion, has always been directly managed by Liu Zhengqian, so even Ming Yuelan can't call the shots in this matter.
"Daniel Zhang, a room in the guard's house. Hey, it's such a coincidence, it's a higher kung fu. Qi Qin said happily. The Liufu Guard is the residence of the Liufu Guard, which has one to four rooms, one of which has the highest martial arts among the guards, and the fourth room has the lowest martial arts, and the area guarded by the people in each room is also different. Coincidentally, that day, Daniel Zhang left his post to find Gongfang because of internal urgency, but he did not expect to hear someone arguing outside the walls of Liufu on the road, although his martial arts were high in the palace guard, but he was not enough to see in front of the Jianghu people, which led to the later things and made him lose his life in vain.
Juqin carefully put the servant booklet back in its place, and the smile on her face was a little relaxed. Although the martial arts of the palace guards in the first room are still impossible to watch, Liu Zhengqian knows that Liu Zhilan is not proficient in martial arts because of the disappearance of Mrs. Wu, so it is somewhat credible to say that the palace guard of the first room was instructed to assassinate Liu Zhilan. Ha, it must be that Mingyue Lanta is so bad that even God can't look past it, so this is helping the lord.
When Qi Qin knew that Nafu Wei's residence was about to leave, but when she saw her fire fold in Shen Yue's hand, she remembered that there was this person next to her, "Hey, what are you doing here?"
Shen Yue's lips exposed under the mask squeezed out a trace of helplessness, he was so ignored standing here as a big living person. He handed back a fire fold in his hand to Qiqin, and then took out a letter from his bosom and gave it to her, "Our Feng Lord forged a letter of collusion between the little lady of the Feng Mansion and the Nafu Wei and asked me to hand it over to you, but the bamboo building was destroyed, and I don't know where you are staying, so I came here to find a record." He didn't dare to say the real reason, who knew if the girl in front of him would beat him if she saw that she had been looking for a long time but didn't help.
"Hmph, it's still a bone in the pavilion, and the kung fu of finding people is not as good as a prince. Qi Qin took the letter from Shen Yue's hand and sneered. When she returned to the guest room after separating from Yu Shu today, she saw Mo Yunchen actually in the guest room, God knows how shocked she was. If Zhencha hadn't covered her mouth in time, she would have shouted out. Later, Mo Yunchen stayed in the guest room for an unknown amount of time before leaving, but a prince who broke into the mansion during the day was not discovered, and his martial arts were also very powerful.
"Lord Wang, King Yixi?" Shen Yue's face froze, "Has he been here?" "God, if Lord Feng knows about this matter, I don't know what kind of turmoil it will cause." No, he has to hide it from the Phoenix Lord, and he must not let him know!
"yes, and it was daylight. Juqin squinted at Shen Yue and sneered: "A prince who broke into the mansion in the sky and day did not let anyone find out, but you, a secret guard of the Bone Annihilation Pavilion, came to this account to find some unwarranted records." Honestly, haven't you just entered the Bone Oblivion Pavilion not long ago?" Liu Zhilan, as the Liu family's two thousand gold, is not a guest, even if she stays in the guest room, she will not record it, how can such a low-level mistake be made by a familiar secret guard.
"Yo, yes, you can see the mistake in what I said. Shen Yue raised her eyebrows lightly under the mask, seeing her temperament, he thought she was a fool, but he didn't expect that she was a shrewd. He was interested in his heart, so he deliberately said: "To tell you the truth, I came to find the residence of the Nafu Wei like you, and the letter that the Phoenix Lord gave you was just to inform you of the truth, but I didn't expect you to take action yourself." It just so saved me the time of rummaging. ”
Qi Qin listened to Shen Yue's words, and her face under the mask was expressionless. She didn't say a word, but very quickly raised her foot and kicked Shen Yue's knee. Shen Yue didn't notice a kick for a while, and although he was in pain, he didn't dare to make a sound. He bent over and covered his knees with his hands, his cheeks bulged and stared up at the qin, but he saw that the woman just snorted coldly in his nose, and then opened the letter and looked at it carefully.
"Don't look at it," Shen Yue straightened up and said bitterly, "The handwriting must be fine." "This woman kicked too hard, and it was clear that she would never shout out and invite people from outside.
"Well, yes, this word is indeed the same as what Ming Yuelan wrote. Qi Qin put the letter into the envelope, and then stuffed it into Shen Yue's arms and left the account room with his legs and feet, "Since your Feng Lord sent you, then the rest will be left to you." I have to go back to serve my master, so I won't accompany me. ”
"Hey. Shen Yue looked at the figure of the woman leaving through the window, shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Slip away." He went to the window, put away the fire, and went out, and continued to hide in the darkness towards the guards.
Here, Liufu Shen Yue is busy, and the snake Yin Fang in the secret room of the Treasure Building is chatting with Huai Zishi.
"Obediently, you made such a move that night. After Huai Zishi heard what happened two nights ago from the mouth of the snake yin fang, he shook his head and said pitifully: "Look at that Liu Zhilan has been pretending to be sick all this time, and now she is really injured but she almost killed you." ”
Hearing this, the hand of the snake yin fang holding the teacup tightened. There was a white jade and gold snake mask on his face that made people unable to see his expression, and even the voice spit out from his thin bloodless lips was as cold as usual, "I said at the time that I was measured, and if you don't believe it, you want to stop me." ”
Huai Zishi smiled embarrassedly, "You are called measured?" When you talk about forming an alliance, you don't hesitate to start at all. ”
"Indecisiveness, big things can't be done. The snake yin fang took a sip of tea lightly, and he said such a resolute word before the weak crown made Huai Zishi almost think that the angry snake yin fang he saw that night was his imagination. "Then you heard me say that night that Mo Yunchen was still so angry when he was in the Liuzhilan Courtyard. ”
Huai Zishi observed the snake yin fang, but saw that the other party just glanced at him casually and didn't react at all, so he suddenly lost interest in his heart, "You are really boring." He propped his head on the table with one hand, and poured poison darts out of his sleeve with the other hand and threw them up and down, "Hey, let's not talk about Liufu first." Tell me, how are you going to steal the dust?" He's done all this for the Bone Oblivion Pavilion, and it's time to get busy with his own business.
"You don't need to know this, I'll give it to you on the winter solstice. The snake yin fang looked at Huai Zishi and turned his head to stare at him with a displeased expression, "What, you help me steal the dust and I can't participate in it, what if you make a mistake then?"
"Now that you know the method, you won't need our Bone Oblivion Pavilion by then, so where does our deal still count with you?" said the snake yin fang. Although Huaiyu's medical skills and toxicology rank second on the rejuvenation list, if you want to talk about it without believing it, I am afraid that no one in the rivers and lakes can match it.
"Ahem, I'm such a scoundrel. Huaizi smiled on his face, is this snake yin fang a roundworm in his stomach! He flattered the snake yin fang and made a cup of tea, and asked: "Then the phoenix lord, you should always tell me why this unstained dust can only be given to me at the winter solstice?"
Regarding the question of Huai Zishi, the snake yin fang did not hide it, "Unstained dust is the secret treasure of Tianqin, and the world only knows that this unstained dust can lead to poison, and its effect on helping people practice medical toxicology is second to none." But did you know that this dustless flowering period is shorter than the epiphany, it only buds on the winter solstice of the year, and if you miss it this year, you will have to wait for the next year. ”
"I see. Huai Zishi frowned, and smiled again, "What I want to steal in the end, it is really very precious." ”
"Okay, everything that needs to be said is said, you can go quickly, I still have things to take care of. The snake yin fang verbally drove Huai Zishi out with a cold face, and Huai Zishi saw that he couldn't inquire about anything anymore and stopped staying, "Hey, don't talk about the affairs of Liufu, you are in such a hurry to drive me away, I am not happy to stay." ”
Huai Zishi came out of the secret room, thinking that the snake yin fang was in such a hurry to drive himself away, maybe he wanted to see Liu Zhilan, so he had a tentative mind and shouted in before closing the door, "Mo Yunchen went to Liu Zhilan Courtyard again during the day, Liu Zhilan was faint, I didn't go with him, I don't know if he did anything." "After that, the soles of his feet were anointed with oil. If you don't tell him the plan, he can't throw the snake yin fang with a poison dart, so he will play with the snake yin fang.
"Kala!" As soon as the door of the secret room closed, the anger in his heart rose angrily, causing the cold qi in the snake's body to leak out, and after a while, the secret room was as cold as a cold winter wax moon. He got up from the carved sandalwood chair, and with some strength with the sleeves raised by the rapid walking, he turned an ice crack teacup on the table to the ground, but he didn't even look at the fragments on the ground, and left a cold room and slammed the door.
