"Lord Shen, I just found this bracelet by the lake, can you see if Miss Zhao is wearing it?" Chen Xiao, who was found by Shen Chongming overnight and took dozens of servants to look for Zhao Ziqian along the lake, hurriedly ran to Shen Chongming with the bracelet he picked up and said.

The turquoise bracelet Shen Chongming had seen it on Zhao Ziqian's wrist more than once, and he took it with trepidation, his body collapsed and sat on the ground, and the scene of Zhao Ziqian throwing herself into the lake in the face of tears came to mind, and in an instant, the jade bracelet slipped off her wrist and stayed on the shore. The worst feared thing happened.

Chen Xiao also thought of this matter when he picked it up, and looked at Shen Chongming's decadent face, and couldn't help but persuade: "Lord Shen, don't be sad, maybe you just accidentally left this bracelet, but there is nothing wrong with people." ”

Shen Chongming shook his head and said weakly: "Lord Chen, I bother you to mobilize a few boats to salvage in the lake." As he spoke, he couldn't help sighing, his heart was full of self-blame, he was idle and intoxicated, even if he followed him from afar, such a thing would not happen!

Chen Xiao was helpless, nodded and went to find the boat.

Two days passed in a flash, and no trace of Zhao Ziqian was found on or under the shore, not only did Shen Chongming not close his eyes for two days and two nights, but even Chen Xiao and the searching men and horses did not stop searching for Zhao Ziqian.

It's been such a long time, and Shen Chongming doesn't have much hope that Zhao Ziqian is still alive, the West Lake is not small, although it is also constantly flowing, trying to salvage a corpse in the lake is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, looking at the haggard looks of Chen Xiao and his group, Shen Chongming finally asked them to stop and went back to Hangzhou City.

Since the case has been solved, there is no reason why the Qincha mission should not return permanently, except for Wu Neng, who has been impeached by Guo Mingyi, and Shen Chongming, who lost Zhao Ziqian, the rest of the people are full of joy, but they just endured it and didn't express it.

"Lord Shen, since no body was found, it means that Miss Zhao is very likely to be alive, after all, such a big thing happened, she also needs to be calm and calm, and it is very likely that she has left Hangzhou. Maybe one day when her heart calms down, she'll come back to you. Looking at Shen Chongming's appearance, Chen Xiao couldn't help but step forward and persuade him, although his Zhao Ziqian was still alive, he didn't have much hope.

Shen Chongming smiled bitterly, feeling that he had been with a bitter smile for a long time, "Lord Chen, don't worry, the official will be fine, and I will invite you to drink when the official returns to the capital after the New Year!" ”

"Okay, the next official will wait in the capital." Saying that, Chen Xiao hugged his fists and said, "Take care, sir, take your leave!" ”

Watching everyone walk away, Shen Chongming was not in a hurry to return to the post station in the capital, but instead beat his horse and thought about going to the West Lake, and went to worship Zhao Mingda first, and then went to the place where he picked up the bracelet.

"Ziqian, why bother, I promised to take good care of you for the rest of my life, but now it's good, your father knows that he will definitely blame me, alas." As he spoke, Shen Chongming took out the jade bracelet from his arms again, as if he saw Zhao Ziqian's smile that fascinated everyone, such a big beauty, it's a pity.

After talking for a long time, Shen Chongming turned over and got on the horse, beating the horse and rushing to the city.

Still didn't go back to the post station, and went directly to Yanyulou wearing an official uniform. These days, I have been taking care of Zhao Ziqian, and I have neglected Yan Yumeng a little, and I have already rejected her invitation twice in a row, thinking about Qing'er's clenched little fists at that time, I feel funny.

In the morning, the Yanyu Building was also silent, except for a few turtle teapots who were responsible for sweeping and wiping, the girls were all lying on the bed, recuperating.

Seeing Shen Chongming, who was dressed in an official robe, walked in in a hurry, several gentlemen from the brothel were dumbfounded, wearing official robes to visit the brothel, such a bullish official is rare. If you look closely, you can recognize him, isn't this the adult who sent Miss Yan back a few days ago!

"Yo, this adult, please, you're here to find Miss Yan." A turtle boy greeted him with a smile.

Shen Chongming nodded, "Lead the way ahead, Miss Yan on the waist of this official." ”

The turtle prince did not move, and his face was embarrassed: "This adult, the rules in our garden, if you want to see Miss Yan, you must get the nod of your mother, hehe." ”

Being messed up by Zhao Ziqian's matter, Shen Chongming was in a super unhappy mood now, but he was not interested in finding trouble with the turtle father, so he walked directly past him and walked upstairs, with Yan Yumeng's identity, he must be living on the third floor.

"Hey, please stay here!" As soon as the turtle prince saw it, he stretched out his hand to block it, and the rest of the people also stepped forward to block Shen Chongming's way.

Shen Chongming took a deep breath, took out a small corner of silver from his arms, glanced at everyone and said, "It's okay to drink tea now." So saying, he put the silver into the hands of one of them, pushed away the man who stood in the way, and went up the stairs.

The turtle who got the silver weighed it, looked back at Shen Chongming who was walking upstairs, covered his mouth and smiled, pointed to the door and said, "Brothers, it's time to clean the door!" ”

Everyone understood, this was clearly just to be treated as if they didn't see it, so they nodded and picked up the guy and went out. But he was muttering in his heart, this official is stupid enough, who told you that Miss Yan lives on the third floor, and there is a small attic in the backyard as a person!

went up to the third floor and looked at nearly seven or eight doors, Shen Chongming couldn't help but worry, what should I do about this, have I ever been to where I can know where Yan Yumeng lives in that room.

After a pause, Shen Chongming had the courage to knock them one by one, but he knew it at a glance.

Normally, many things will be unexpected by themselves, although the door is open, but the girls in front of our door are thinly dressed, and their carcasses are looming, and they are clearly people who are really doing the skin and meat business, and there are Qing people like Yan Yumeng.

"Yo, this lord is so Yaxing, come in and sit down." A girl looked at Shen Chongming, who was dressed in an official robe, and didn't feel that her eyes lit up, so she stepped forward and began to pull.

How could such a good thing make her specialize in beauty, the sisters and sisters on weekdays suddenly tore their faces and came up to scramble, and one by one the well-defined breasts were placed in Shen Chongming, only to feel that the nosebleeds were surging!

There was a lot of noise on the third floor, which immediately alarmed the first and second floors, and even the people in the backyard rushed to find out what was going on, including Xiaoqing, who went out to fetch water for Yan Yumeng.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Shen Chongming really couldn't stand it, struggled to get out of the predicament, stumbled and fled downstairs, grandma's, it was really unfavorable, the master was actually teased by a group of girls!

"Yo, isn't this Lord Shen, you come to the kiln early in the morning, you are really good Yaxing." Looking at the disheveled Shen Chongming, Xiaoqing couldn't help but sneer, she refused Miss's invitations several times in a row two days ago, and this matter is definitely not over.

Seeing Xiaoqing, Shen Chongming seemed to see a savior, and ran to the front with a face full of surprise, and explained with some embarrassment: "Miss Xiaoqing, I came to find your young lady, but I didn't know where she lived, so I walked out of the place." ”

"Hmph, Lord Shen doesn't need to explain, what kind of goods are the men who come to the garden, I Xiaoqing know everything clearly!" Miss Xiaoqing didn't save the slightest face for Shen Chongming, and looked at him with disdain and said.

Shen Chongming knew that Xiaoqing was still angry at her refusal of Yan Yumeng's invitation, although she was harsh at this time, she was not angry, but said with a smile: "Miss Xiaoqing, what happened a few days ago was not right for me, this time I really came to find Miss Yan, one is to apologize, the other is to say goodbye, and please Miss Xiaoqing, you don't care about me a lot." ”

Xiaoqing was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "You said you were leaving?" ”

"yes, the case is over, of course I won't stay here. I don't know when we'll see each other again after leaving this time, so I'm going to come and see Miss Yan and you. Shen Chongming smiled bitterly.

Xiaoqing suddenly realized, and no longer embarrassed him, and said: "Then you come with me, be disciplined, don't be fussy with my young lady, otherwise you will look good, hum!" ”

Shen Chongming was speechless for a while, you little girl is too powerful.

"Miss, that one with no conscience is here!" Xiaoqing said while pushing the door, Shen Chongming, who was following behind, stumbled and almost fell to the ground, obediently, this is without conscience.

A rush of footsteps sounded, and Yan Yumeng appeared in front of Shen Chongming with a fragrant breeze, smiled slightly, and said, "Shen Gongzi." ”

"Yumeng, there were some things a few days ago, don't be angry if you didn't come." Shen Chongming said with a smile on his face.

"Hehe, Childe said that he laughed, Yumeng knew it, how could he be angry." Yan Yumeng smiled, and when Xiaoqing on the side saw her like this, she couldn't help but reach out and pinch her.

I taught her two days ago, and when Shen Chongming came, I definitely couldn't give him a good look, these men are all virtuous, if you treat her a little better, he will be very angry with his nostrils. But if you leave him, he will definitely want to stick to your side and be reluctant to leave, so what do you do?

Yan Yumeng naturally understood what she meant, but she wanted to pretend to be cold to treat Shen Chongming, but she really couldn't do it, so she didn't pay attention to it, but smiled and asked Xiaoqing to serve tea to Shen Chongming.
