Miss Lu Si entered the courtyard gate and was slightly stunned.

The courtyard was empty, only a stone table and four stone benches, and the one sitting quietly at the stone table was the eldest girl of the Lu family who had just returned, Lu Zijin.

She was wearing a pale cyan wide robe, and she simply wore a bun.

In front of her was a black and white staggered endgame, behind her was a snow-white wall with green vines, her eyelashes were lowered, her fingertips were lightly folded, and she was holding a sunspot, and her eyes did not move, as if she didn't notice that Miss Lu Si was coming in.

"Big sister...... Miss Lu called softly, and there was a little awe in her heart for no reason.

She is a full nine years younger than Lu Zijin, and she has been serving with her father, and she has never met this big sister a few times, and the last time she saw her was when Lu Zijin got married ten years ago.

Therefore, she is even stranger to Lu Zijin than Lu Zishan.

Lu Zijin let out an "um", dropped the black seed, and picked up another white child, but his eyes still did not rise.

Miss Lu swallowed nervously and took the initiative to say what she meant.

When the white son fell, Lu Zijin finally raised his head and glanced at her lightly.

Miss Lu Si felt frightened inexplicably, and lowered her head unconsciously.

"Bring it." Lu Zijin said lightly, his voice was of golden jade, his tone was clear and cold, and he sounded slightly lower than that of ordinary women.

Miss Lu Si suddenly felt her heart skip a beat, and she stepped forward with the sketch in her hand and handed it to the maid in Tsing Yi beside Lu Zijin.

When I stepped back, I inadvertently raised my eyes, and happened to see her delicate and thin side face, with a straight nose bridge and clear outlines, and she looked cold and cold, which matched her voice very well.

Miss Lu Si has been married, and she also heard the news of Lu Zijin's return a few days ago, and when she sent someone back to her parents' house to inquire, she only got Mrs. Yan Guo's sentence "You don't have to come back to see it", so she didn't listen to her mother until she came back yesterday afternoon.

said that this big sister was lonely and cold, and she refused to see anyone since she came back.

Now it seems that it may not be possible to refuse to see people, but it is a bit true that Lonely HD is cold.

Miss Lu Si was slightly distracted by thoughts, and suddenly noticed that the sound of Lu Zijin flipping through the sketch stopped, so she looked down.

Now it is Su Jin's painting that is opened.

The painting is good, but there are some creases on the paper, and the picture is not very flat, especially there is a crease on the payment, at first glance, a good stroke of words becomes crooked.

"Su Shilang is the fourth aunt's maiden nephew—"

Seeing her fair and slender fingers gently caressing the creases on the drawing, Miss Lu Si hurriedly explained: "When I passed by the West Garden just now, I gave the little girls a picture of the little Lang's paintings, and this crease fell accidentally!" ”

"Who fell?" Lu Zijin asked.

The creases on this painting, Miss Lu Si have already seen it, although it is Chi Tang's rudeness, but such a cute little girl, but she missed for a while, Miss Lu Si did not intend to tell people her right and wrong.

But when Lu Zijin asked like this, she suddenly felt a pang in her heart, and she didn't dare to be vague casually.

"Yes, it's Miss Chi of the Fujun family...... "Miss Lu Si was a little apprehensive, "Miss Chi really likes Su Shilang's paintings, and she can't put it down for a long time, she is young, and she accidentally made creases because she didn't know the weight of her hands and feet......"

While explaining, he peeked at Miss Lu's expression, for fear that she would be angry and blame.

After hearing this, Lu Zijin just let out a low "um" and turned over Su Jin's painting.

After reading them all, she took out one of them, commented on it briefly, and then stopped talking.

Miss Lu Si waited for a while, only until the maid in Tsing Yi made a gesture to send off the guest.

"What about the second place?" Miss Lu Si couldn't help but ask.

Why did you order only one? Wouldn't it disappoint the other Xiaolangjun?

Lu Zijin didn't answer, but just picked up the chess pieces again.

Miss Lu Si didn't dare to ask more, so she had to leave disappointed.

In the afternoon, there are more and more guests in Shanglu Mansion to pay their respects, and no one can take care of this corner anymore.

Lu Zijin - After playing this game of chess in the courtyard, Li Yan got up and returned to the study in the house, picked up the letters piled up on the table and read them one by one.

It wasn't until the sunset slipped in that a person stepped out of the shadows behind him and bowed to him: "Your Highness." ”

Raising his head, his complexion was bright, and he seemed to have brilliance, it was the chief court of Wu County Taishou Pond.

"Wuxing County has just sent back the news, and those few in Wutou Village have been lost!" Chi Changting said in a low voice, "Not only are those few people in Wutou Village missing, but there seem to be fewer homeless people who are receiving porridge in Wucheng County these days!" ”

Li Yan turned his head to look at him: "Where do you think those missing homeless people are?" ”

Both were silent.

Chi Changting served as Wu Jun for six years, and Li Yan secretly infiltrated Jiangnan, all for a case six years ago.

In that case, Chi Changting carefully investigated it for six years, and finally found some clues in Wutou Village.

However, a sudden flood in Taihu Lake directly washed away the village of Wutou, and even the survivors who were hard to find were missing.

Sure enough, on the territory of King Wuxing County, it was difficult to find out the case of that year.

"The minister plans to arrange for the wealthy merchants of Wu County who can be trusted to fund the recruitment of displaced people as workers." Pond Changting Road.

Li Yan couldn't help but glance at him appreciatively.

Recruiting displaced people to work is undoubtedly a good strategy to effectively reassure people's livelihoods, even if there are no cases they are investigating now, this strategy is worth implementing.

The wealthy merchants of Wu County will inevitably attract many young and strong people among the displaced people.

If Wu Xing's side was really attacking the homeless, he would not be willing to let the young and strong homeless people come to Wu County, as long as there was a move over there, it would be a breakthrough.

Li Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Lonely is given to you personally, and arranged to become a homeless person." ”

Chi Changting immediately understood and answered "yes".

After saying a few more words, Li Yan raised his hand and motioned for him to step back.

After Chi Changting gave the salute, he didn't immediately retreat, raised his head, looked at Li Yan and said with a smile: "Mrs. Yanguo's birthday banquet is about to start, the eldest girl is here alone, it's really pitiful to look at!" ”

The corners of the eyebrows and eyes are not without a smile.

Li Yan glanced at him and suddenly asked, "How old is Chi Qing's daughter this year?" ”

Chi Changting suddenly smiled, stared at him vigilantly, and asked, "Why is Your Highness asking this?" ”

Li Yan said lightly: "I heard that Miss Chi is very fond of Yuhang Su Jin——"

"Yuhang Su Jin!" Chi Changting screamed out in a lost voice, and then reacted, before he tried his best to lower his voice and ask, "What Yuhang Sujin?" Who is Yuhang Sujin? Who spread the rumors! ”

When he said the word "rumor", he gritted his teeth and glared at Li Yan viciously.

Li Yan picked up the tea cup on the table disapprenanently, took a sip leisurely, and said, "Miss Chi said it herself-"

Before the words fell, the graceful Chi Taishou ran out like a gust of wind.

Li Yan glanced at the door, the corners of his lips slightly hooked.

……

At this time, Miss Chi was pulling the seventh girl to guard the road leading to the banquet hall in the East Garden, ready to peek at Su Jin, who had been remembered by her father.
