Su Lang wondered in his heart, and said in his heart, the person who made an appointment to go on a blind date in the Fengzhu Pavilion was Miss Tao, and the person he could see in the Fengzhu Pavilion was the person in front of him......

However, the person in front of her said that she was not Miss Tao......

Qi Yan suddenly said: "Young Master Su, the Miss Tao you are talking about is Tao Wan of the General's Mansion, right?" ”

Su Lang's expression was stiff, and his eyes flickered.

Qi Yan squinted and smiled, looked at Su Lang, and said slowly: "I am friends with her......"

Su Lang was stunned, and his expression became more and more exciting.

Qi Yan didn't say anything further, but smiled and looked at Su Lang meaningfully.

At this time, if there is a crack in the ground, Su Gongzi is probably eager to get into it......

"Unexpectedly, you also know Miss General......" Zhou Qian said, looking at Qi Yan.

Qi Yan smiled and replied, ""I met ...... a long time ago."

"That ......" Su Lang opened his mouth at this time and said, "I, I still have something to do, so I won't bother the honesty, I'll leave first." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Zhou Qian to say anything, he hurriedly left.

Qi Yan looked at Su Lang's back almost running away, and the corners of his mouth raised.

"Young Mrs. Xie, let's go." Zhou Qian was more concerned about the matter, and said, "Come on, let's play a game of chess." ”

"Okay." Qi Yan bowed his head and sat down in the chess room.

…………

…………

When Qi Yan came out of Zhou Qian's chess room, it was already past noon time for lunch.

Zhou Qian was still unsatisfied and wanted to play a few more games with Qi Yan, but at that time, Qi Yan's stomach couldn't hold it, and he purred a few times, Zhou Qian said embarrassedly this time: "Look at me, as soon as I get off chess, I forget about ......."

"It's fine." Qi Yan said, "I also learned a lot from playing chess with Master Zhou. ”

She played a total of three games of chess with Zhou Qian, with two wins and one loss.

At this point, even Qi Yan was surprised, she even had a feeling that she didn't know she had won.

Qi Yan is just playing chess by feeling, just like a person, walking a path that he is particularly familiar with, because he is already very familiar, so even if he closes his eyes, he can walk through it.

This is the feeling of playing chess with Zhou Qian, he hasn't fallen yet, Qi Yan can almost guess where he is going to fall......

All of this is thanks to Fu Yi......

At the beginning, on the way to Youzhou, Xie Fuyi tried every means to pester Qi Yan, teach her to play chess, and play chess with her, not so much to teach Qi Yan to understand the joy of the chess game, not that he trained Qi Yan to be a person who targeted Zhou Qian's chess path.

Qi Yan's chess move is estimated to lose against others, but against Zhou Qian, he can win......

But......

Qi Yan looked at the last game.

She won the first two games and lost the last one.

Her chess move, it is okay to meet Zhou Qian for a short time, but if it takes a long time, it will not work at all.

Qi Yan was also anxious about what Xie Fu Yi said, at that time, they were still in Youzhou, Xie Fu Yi specially told Qi Yan, saying: "Play chess with Lord Zhou, the less the better, two games are the best, after three games, you must not play ......"

"Why?" Qi Yan asked rhetorically at the time.

Xie Fuyi poked her head and said, "When the time comes, you may be in trouble." ”

Qi Yan didn't believe it at the time, and he didn't take Xie Fuyi's words to heart until today......

She didn't expect that she would meet Zhou Qian who came to buy books at the book market, and she didn't expect that Zhou Qian would invite her into the door, and what she didn't expect was that she played three games with Zhou Qian, winning the first game easily, and the second game was a little difficult...... In the third game, Zhou Qian's chess path made her a little confused, and the game was extremely difficult......

After three rounds, Zhou Qian was still unfinished, like a child who had found a fun toy and forgot the time, and wanted to pull Qi Yan to play another game!

At this time, Qi Yan's stomach rang, but fortunately, Qi Yan's stomach rang......

"Today, you must stay here for dinner!" Zhou Qian Chong Yan said, "I'll let the kitchen cook something for you!" ”

Qi Yan shook his head and said, "No need! Me, I've got something to do! ”

She was worried that after she stayed here to eat, Master Zhou would still pull her to play chess after the meal!

It's just damning!

Qi Yan was dizzy and rubbed his head.

Zhou Qian said: "It's not too late to eat......

"However, I really have something urgent...... Qi Yan looked embarrassed and said, "I understand Lord Zhou's kindness, I won't eat the meal, I have time, I will come to visit Lord Zhou in person......"

"No, you don't." Zhou Qian waved his hand and said, "Where do you live now, I have time to find you, and we will continue to play chess." ”

Qi Yan: "......"

"You don't live in Xie's house now, do you?" Zhou Qian said.

They are now standing at the door of the chess room, this is not a book market, people come and go, and they don't have to worry about who listens to the conversation between the two.

Zhou Qian said: "I already know about the Xie family. ”

Qi Yan paused, followed Zhou Qian's words, and said, "Xie Fuyi, you are wronged. Master Zhou, you have worked with him and know who he is. ”

Zhou Qian nodded, stroked his gray beard, and said, "I don't dare to say it, but I believe that Gongzi Xie will not do this point of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country." ”

Qi Yan said: "Thank you for believing in him." ”

Zhou Qian sighed softly and continued: "I believe that he is useless, and the emperor has to believe in him......"

Qi Yan thought of the Ninety-Five Venerable, a sneer fell from the corner of his mouth, and said, "Yes, only if the emperor believes it, Xie Fu Yi can be released from the cell." ”

Zhou Qian said: "You don't have to worry, the clear is self-purifying, I believe that Gongzi Xie will be fine." ”

Qi Yan nodded lightly, noncommittal, and then said: "Lord Zhou, if Xie Fuyi is cleared of his charges, you can find him to play chess, and my Go is taught by him himself." ”

Zhou Qian smiled when he heard this, and said jokingly: "As soon as you say that, I want to go to Dali Temple to find him for the next game now!" ”

Qi Yan followed and said, "If it is allowed from above, why not?" ”

Zhou Qian paused, stroked his beard and laughed.

"Lord Zhou, I'm leaving." Qi Yan saluted Zhou Qian.

"Since you have something to do, I won't stay." Zhou Qian said, "You can skip the meal, but you have to accept this thing." ”

As he spoke, he saw the little guy waiting on the side bring two boxes of chess pieces.

"It's ......"

"Chess pieces made of white jade and black jade." Zhou Qian said, "I've sent you." ”

"What's so embarrassing?" Qi Yan shook his head and didn't accept it.

"Take it, I'll lose two games of chess to you......" Zhou Qian was generous and said, "Before, you also solved a piece of my heart, I said that I would treat you as a benefactor." ”

Qi Yan said: "It's just a game of chess......

"It's just a game of chess for you, not for me." Zhou Qian said uh, sighed softly, and continued, "Those few unsolved chess games have always been my heart disease, but you are the benefactor who helped me cure a heart disease!" Giving the benefactor a box of chess pieces is not too much. ”

Seeing that he was so persistent, Qi Yan didn't want to say anything, so he could only accept it.

"Then I'll be respectful and obey."

"Take it, keep it." Zhou Qian said, "In the future, if you encounter any difficulties, you can also come to me......

He paused slightly: "As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you!" ”

Qi Yan was a little surprised, Zhou Qian was so serious, she had a game of chess with Zhou Qian in Youzhou before, and Qi Yan didn't pay much attention to it.

Until now...... Zhou Qian stood in front of her, and Zhou Qian told her that as long as she could do it, she would already help Qi Yan......

"Lord Zhou, what you said is true?" Qi Yan hesitated for a moment and asked.

"Nature is true!"

"Then I'm ......" Qi Yan swallowed his saliva and said softly, "Can I meet Xie Fuyi?" ”

Zhou Qian was stunned.

Qi Yan immediately realized what she had said, she came back to her senses, shook her head, and said, "I know, this makes you embarrassed...... Xie Fuyi was imprisoned in Dali Temple...... And you belong to the household department, these are two yamen that are not used......" The more Qi Yan said, the more hopeless he felt.

"Lord Zhou, you...... You...... Just if I didn't say it! ”

"I'll try." Zhou Qian nodded unexpectedly.

Qi Yan was stunned.

Zhou Qian said again: "Just like you said, I am from the household department, and Gongzi Xie is locked up in Dali Temple...... However, although they are two yamen, they are one court, aren't they? So, I'll give it a try, but I can't guarantee that I'll let you see it. ”

Qi Yan's eyes widened, surprised and delighted.

Zhou Qian can say this, Qi Yan is already very happy.

"Thank you, Lord Zhou! Thanks a lot! Qi Yan bowed.

"Young Mrs. Xie, you are too polite." Zhou Qian bowed his hand and said, "I said it all, you are my benefactor......

When Qi Yan heard this, his heart was very weak for a while...... She, a benefactor, would be ashamed, if it weren't for Xie Fuyi......

Xie Fuyi?

Qi Yan was stunned, and for a moment, she vaguely understood Xie Fuyi's purpose of insisting on teaching her to play chess! is to win over Zhou Qian......

No! Wrong!

Qi Yan shook his head again in his heart, and said in his heart, although Xie Fu Yi is reborn, no matter how powerful he is, he will be taken away by Dali Temple, right?

Moreover, how would he know that he would beg Zhou Qian to see him in prison......

Qi Yan shook his head, denying the fleeting thought he had just had.

…………

…………

When he came out of Zhou's house, Qi Yan was already so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back.

Luo Twelve asked her directly, "Where to eat?" ”

"Zhang Zhiyuan's restaurant is too far away." Qi Yan said, "Let's eat casually first." ”

Luo Twelve nodded, very agreeable.

The two found a small restaurant, just past the time for lunch, there were not many people in the restaurant, Luo Twelve walked into the small restaurant, and naturally the knife sat by the window, and Qi Yan sat opposite her.

While waiting for the dishes, Qi Yan was a little distracted.

Luo XII didn't just ask, "What are you thinking?" ”

Qi Yan cupped his cheek with one hand and said, "I don't know, can Lord Zhou do this......

"I think so." Luo XII said bluntly.

"Why?"

"Because, he seems to be reliable." Luo XII said.

Qi Yan nodded, and couldn't help but say, "What you said is that Lord Zhou is indeed very reliable......"

This was true in previous lives, and it is true today.

"Qi Yan, you're so lucky." Luo XII said suddenly.

"What?" Qi Yan was stunned and looked at Luo Twelve puzzled, "Lucky? Where does this begin? ”

"There are people like Lord Zhou who regard you as a benefactor." Luo Twelve said, "In Yujing, in addition to the General's Mansion behind you, there is another Hubu Shangshu." ”

Qi Yan was stunned and stared at Luo Twelve for a long time without speaking.

Luo Twelve said: "Am I not right? ”

Qi Yan still didn't speak, she swallowed lightly, her heart turned over, and an idea poured out......

"Twelve, let me ask you a question......" Qi Yan ignored the thoughts in his heart, and instead looked directly at Luo Twelve.

"You ask."

"Xie Fuyi taught me how to play chess...... To solve Zhou Qian's heart disease and gain Zhou Qian's favor......" Qi Yan heard his voice, getting lower and lower, deeper and deeper, almost muttering to himself.

“…… He...... Why didn't he go on his own? ”

"Does that need to be said?" Luo Twelve looked at Qi Yan funny, as if Qi Yan had asked a question, one plus one equals how many.

"Self-heating is what he wants you to make Zhou Qian's benefactor, so that Zhou Qian can protect you in turn."

Qi Yan: "......"

Luo Twelve looked at Qi Yan in front of him.

I saw Qi Yan's eyes straight, and I didn't know what he was thinking.

Luo Twelve continued: "Qi Yan, you're not stupid, you won't even be unable to figure this out, right? ”

Qi Yan swallowed lightly and did not speak.

Luo's twelve words coincided with the thoughts tumbling in her mind!

At the beginning, Xie Fuyi's trip to Youzhou was ...... He wouldn't have expected what would happen to him today, but he knew that Zhou Qian would return to the capital, and he taught her to play chess and win Zhou Qian's favor, in fact, to pave the way for her......

In the future, no matter what business she does in the capital, it will not be too bad to have a military secretary who regards her as a benefactor......

"Boom! Boom! At this moment, Luo Twelve knocked on the table, leading Qi Yan to look at her, and then, only to hear Luo Twelve say word by word: "Qi Yan, don't you know all this that Xie Fu Yi has done for you?" ”

Qi Yan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he couldn't make a sound.

"You are in the Xie family, and he protects you in every way from Mrs. Xie's hands." Luo Twelve said, "Later, the trip to Youzhou also paved the way for you, and later, when you opened a bookstore, he also bargained for you ......"

"Wait a minute!" Qi Yan interrupted Luo Twelve, "I'll open a bookstore, Xie Fu Yi will plan for me?" ”

"Or else?" Luo XII said, "Don't you think your bookstore is running very well? ”

Qi Yan swallowed lightly, she had felt this way.

At that time, she only thought that she was lucky.

"Yujing, every inch of land is expensive, if you want to do business here, do you know how difficult it is?" Luo XII said, "It has to be done there." ”

Qi Yan said: "I ...... it."

"How can you do it all at once?" Luo Twelve said, "Before you do it, Xie Fuyi has already helped you do it." ”

Qi Yan bit his lower lip.

Luo Twelve looked at her, sighed, and continued: "You opened a bookstore, did Zhang Zhiyuan help a lot? ”

Qi Yan nodded slightly.

"Zhang Zhiyuan, whose person is it?"

Qi Yan gritted his teeth: "Xie Fu Yi ......"

"It was Xie Fuyi who asked Zhang Zhiyuan to come forward and help you prepare everything." Luo Twelve said, "However, Xie Fuyi won't let us tell you this." ”

"We ......" Qi Yan looked at Luo Twelve, grasped the key to the matter, and said, "Who else?" ”

"Uh......" Luo Twelve seemed to have just realized that he had said the wrong thing.

Qi Yan said: "Since it's all said, let's say it all together." ”

Luo Twelve shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, anyway, Xie Fu Yi is not here, so you can't do anything to me!" ”

Qi Yan: "......"

"Zhou Bin." Luo XII said, "The guy who helped you with the bookstore." ”

"Is he also ......?"

"Not bad." Luo Twelve nodded and said, "Where did you find such a good guy?" Almost omnipotently, he can run a newly opened bookstore so well! It's definitely not a newbie! ”

Qi Yan didn't speak, only listened to Luo Twelve continue: "Zhou Bin is a distant relative of Zhang Zhiyuan, who has been running the Xie family's business in Yangzhou, and it was Xie Fuyi who transferred him to the capital to help you run the bookstore." ”

Qi Yan said: "What else? ”

"There's a lot more...... Luo Twelve said, "I didn't believe in the relationship between men and women before, until I saw the ...... Xie Fu Yi did for you."

Speaking of this, Luo Twelve sighed lightly and continued: "Xie Fu Yi is really good to you, so good, sometimes I wonder if he owes you ......"

Qi Yan froze.

Owe?

Luo Twelve said, shook his head again, and continued: "However, I quickly understood later that Xie Fuyi just likes you, because there is no such thing as a debt to be repaid, and what you owe and one repays, that is called debt collection, and what is willing is love." ”

Qi Yan looked at Luo Twelve in front of him and didn't speak.

Luo Twelve narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"Two guest officers! Your meals! Just when the two looked at each other, the shopkeeper served the meal, and Qi Yan came back to his senses from the atmosphere just now.

"Hurry up and eat!" Luo Twelve seemed to be fine, and said to Qi Yan, "I'm dying of hunger." ”

At this time, Qi Yan had no appetite.

She was thinking about what Luo Twelve had just said.

“…… If you owe and pay it back, it is called debt collection, and what you are willing to do is love......"

Between her and Xie Fuyi, the past life and this life are entangled, there is no one who owes anyone, in the previous life, Xie Fuyi owed her, she came to the meeting, and burned his entire Xie family......

What about this life?

For the first time, Qi Yan seriously thought about this question.

However, it didn't work out.

"Qi Yan?" Seeing that Qi Yan was holding the chopsticks but didn't move, Luo Twelve couldn't help but say, "The food is going to be cold." ”

Qi Yan finally came back to his senses.

"I don't want to!" She said to herself, "Let's solve the current problem first!" ”

…………

…………

Over there, Qi Yan got out of the chaotic emotional entanglement for a while and concentrated on eating.

This way......

Xie Fu Yi just put down his chopsticks.

"Gongzi Xie, how does the food taste?" The jailer who was in charge of inspecting Xie Fuyi's cell came over and cleaned up the leftover meals that Xie Fuyi ate.

"It's okay." Xie Fuyi nodded and said, "Although the heat of this steamed sea bass is a little heavy, it is better than the freshness of the fish." ”

The jailer smiled and said, "Next time, I'll tell the cook!" Let him watch the fire ......"

"What kind of heat are you looking at?" At this moment, a voice came from behind him.

The jailer was startled and hurriedly looked over.

I saw that Liu Man's eyes were not eyes, his nose was not his nose, and he walked over with his hands behind his back and pretending to be there.

"Lord Liu, why are you here?" The jailer hurriedly packed up the food box and greeted Liu Man.

Liu Man said: "Don't hide it, I know what you have done!" ”

As he spoke, he walked up to the jailer and pushed him away.

The food box hidden behind the jailer was exposed, and Liu Man kicked it over, and when he landed, the food inside crackled and fell to the ground, and the soup and water spilled all over the ground......

Seeing this, the jailer's face turned red, and he quickly explained: "In the cell, there are rules, if the prisoner thinks the food is not good, he can ......."

"That's the average prisoner!" Liu Man interrupted the jailer sharply and said, "Is Xie Fuyi an ordinary prisoner?!" ”

The jailer didn't dare to speak!

"He's guilty of treason! It's going to raid the house and destroy the door! You still dare to deliver him food from outside! Isn't it to help him deliver the message! ”

"Lord Liu! Wronged! Wronged! The jailer suddenly knelt down, "I, I didn't!" I just helped Xie Fu Yi bring food! When the meal was cooked, I saw it from start to finish! It's just an ordinary meal! Nothing! ”

"You say no, no, no!" Liu Man kicked the jailer away and said viciously, "It's all up to you to say with one mouth!" ”

The jailer fell to the ground on all fours, got up in embarrassment, and begged Liu Man: "Lord Liu! I don't dare! You, you let me go! I really don't dare! I...... I'll give you all the money! Lift up your noble hand......"

"Humph!" Liu Man snorted coldly, "I'll look up to your little money?" As he spoke, he looked at Xie Fuyi: "There is no one next to you!" It's not just a few stinky money! ”

Xie Fuyi stood aside, listened to Liu Man talking to him, and said, "Lord Liu, don't you have the ability to do anything, so you can only be angry with the jailer." ”

"You!" Liu Man was choked by Xie Fu Yi and was speechless for a while! His face was flushed.

Xie Fuyi felt a little sorry for Lord Liu, he didn't speak sharply enough, his reaction was not sharp enough, his movements were not fast enough, and he had to quarrel with others......

Gongzi Xie pressed his eyebrows, and couldn't help but think of what Qi Yan had said to him in his previous life: "But anyone who wants to put people to death is estimated to have been quietly killed by others before he made a move." ”

Liu Man in front of him is such a person.

"By the way, you came to me, did you come to interrogate me?" Xie Fuyi naturally opened the topic and glanced at the jailer on the side, and the jailer paused for a moment before realizing that Xie Fuyi was letting him leave first.

Liu Man had already attracted Xie Fuyi's attention, and he didn't care about making things difficult for a little jailer.

He walked up to Xie Fuyi.

These two people, one is obviously in the cell, and the other is obviously outside the cell, but just looking at the expressions of the two, I really don't think that Xie Fuyi, who is calm and relaxed, is the one who is locked up in the cell.

"I tell you! Now, Lord Jiang, order me to try your case with him! Liu Man stared at Xie Fu Yi viciously, as if he wanted to skin him and cramp, and said through gritted teeth, "You fell into my hands again!" ”

"Oh?" Xie Fuyi smiled.
