Walking out of the clouds, Lin Ziyue's nose was still sore hot, he covered his nose, but he smiled very happily.

After Lord He was arrested and returned to Beijing, the Yangzhou Mansion and the official post were also temporarily sealed, and Lin Ziyue temporarily lived in an inn in the city.

Back in the inn, Lin Ziyue immediately summoned Qian Tangping, the leader of the imperial guards.

"Guard Qian, please go and help me investigate someone." Lin Ziyue folded her slender legs and said thoughtfully.

"I don't know who Lord Lin wants to investigate?"

Lin Ziyue said word by word: "The shopkeeper of the house in the clouds." ”

Qian Tangping was stunned: "But is it related to Lord He's case?" ”

Lin Ziyue shook his head: "It has nothing to do with him, you don't have to ask, I have my own use." ”

"Yes." Qian Tangping didn't dare to ask any further, and his jaw should be at the moment.

Lin Ziyue pondered for a moment, and then advised: "The more detailed, the better." ”

"My subordinates understand." Qian Tangping received the order, immediately left the inn, and set out to investigate Shu Qing's whereabouts.

Qian Tangping first followed the clues in the mouths of passers-by to investigate, and soon, he found that there were actually two houses in the clouds in this Yangzhou city, and one in the east and west of the city.

The shopkeeper in the east of the city was so elusive that almost no one knew where he came from, let alone whether he was a man or a woman, and what he looked like.

As for the shopkeeper in the west of the city, it is slightly easier to inquire, the shopkeeper is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, but there are very few people who know her real name, and the people in Yangzhou City call her the cloud shopkeeper or the cloud girl, this cloud shopkeeper does not seem to be a Yangzhou person, but also recently appeared in Yangzhou City, she will take a carriage to the cloud every day, in addition, there is no useful news next to it.

Although passers-by said to Qian Tangping, there were also people who secretly followed the cloud shopkeeper and wanted to know where she lived, but they were always disturbed by mysterious forces. In order to thoroughly find out the details of this Yun girl, Qian Tangping planned to simply wait near the cloud house.

Above the high pavilion of the House in the Clouds.

Chun Niang hurriedly walked into the pavilion, and curtsied at the man standing in the attic: "Chun Niang has seen the son." ”

The man was standing in the wind, and when he heard the words, he asked lazily, "What's the matter?" ”

"I just found out below that someone is investigating the house in the clouds." Chun Niang cautiously said.

After all, Yunzhonglu has been based in Yangzhou City for many years, and their eyeliner is planted everywhere on the street, some eyeliner is dressed as Huazi, and some are dressed as roadside vendors, and just now there is an eyeliner to tell her that today there is a person who asked him about the details of the shopkeeper of Yunzhonglu, listening to the person's accent, it seems that he is from Beijing.

"Oh?" The man's voice suddenly became cold, and he turned his face slightly and asked, "Who is so bold as to dare to find out my head?" ”

Chun Niang continued: "My subordinates have already ordered someone to investigate. At the moment, I only know that he speaks with the accent of the capital, and he is dressed like a royal guard. ”

"That's right......" Chun Niang paused, and said cautiously, "That person seems to be investigating Miss Shu Qing in addition to investigating you, Childe, it is reported that he is still squatting at Miss Shu Qing at the moment, and I don't know what his intentions are." ”

There was a little worry in Chun Niang's tone, she had seen with her own eyes how Shu Qing had come to this point, and she had some feelings along the way, and Chun Niang regarded her as a sister.

"What a daring thing!" The man, who had been very calm, suddenly burst out with such a sentence through gritted teeth.

For a while, Chun Niang only felt that the cold was pressing, and she was chilled.

Childe rarely gets so angry, unless it touches his bottom line. Apparently, the man was swatting flies on the tiger's head.

"What does Childe want his subordinates to do?" Chun Niang asked interestingly.

The man coldly commanded, "Give that person a lesson!" Let him know whose territory it is! ”

Chunniang was slightly stunned, and bowed her head: "The subordinates understand, and the subordinates will arrange it." ”

Chun Niang said, and was about to leave.

"Wait." Just when Chun Niang was about to leave, the man called her again, he pursed his thin lips, thought for a while, and said in a low voice, "Don't meddle in this matter for the time being, I have my own arrangements." ”

The House in the Clouds is the hard work he has cultivated, and he can't afford to use his own hard work to play with them.

"Yes." Chun Niang hesitated for a moment, but agreed, and then slowly left the attic.

The cold wind blew the man's cloak rustling, and the wind and frost froze people, but his eyes at the moment were better than all the ice and snow, and the vicious murderous aura seemed to be a blade quenched with poison, which made people shudder and tremble.

It's already dark.

Shu Qing promised Shu Zicheng that he would return to the apricot orchard before dark every day.

Although the murder case that shook the whole city has been solved, and the murderer has also been arrested, Shu Zicheng is inevitably a little worried that Shu Qing is alone.

The sunset covered the entire sky, and the road back to the apricot orchard seemed to be paved with gold.

With the support of Xuehuan Xuepei, Shu Qing stepped into the carriage, and the stove had been lit in the car, and when she entered the car, Shu Qing only felt comfortable, and a warm current rushed to her chest.

After a tiring day, she was already a little sleepy.

As soon as she got into the seat, Shu Qing narrowed her eyes and fell asleep in a daze, and Xue Huan and Xue Pei didn't dare to disturb her when they saw that she was sleeping soundly.

The carriage drove slowly down the wide streets, and in a short time it was on the outskirts.

The road in the suburbs is a little winding and dim because there are no street lights.

Halfway through the car, the groom's speed suddenly increased.

The violent bumps made Shu Qing, who was so easy to feel a little sleepy, wake up immediately.

She sat up straight suddenly, and couldn't help but ask vigilantly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Miss Hui, someone is following us." The groom said, "Miss sit tight, the little one is going to speed up now!" ”

In order to protect Shu Qing's safety, Shu Zicheng specially hired a strong guard to be Shu Qing's groom, this groom has a keen mind, deaf ears and eyes, and found out early that someone was following them all the way.

Shu Qing was also a little flustered at this time, Xue Huan and Xue Pei hurriedly grabbed her hand left and right, reassuring and encouraging her not to be afraid.

In the twilight waning moon, Shu Qing could also hear the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer, as if it was in his ears.

The coachman of the carriage transported them to a hidden corner, calmly threw a dagger to Xue Pei, and then said quickly: "Miss, you stay here for the time being, the villain will go and solve the person who is following him, and he will come back to pick you up immediately!" ”

With that, the groom ran back without looking back.
