A wave has not settled, and another wave has risen.

hasn't found the suspected tomb robber yet, and a white-bearded old man of unknown origin popped up!

Fortunately, they learned the only good news from Momo's mouth recently: three months ago, Wu Fenglin only brought back two things from Youzhou, one was the wooden box that Xiaozhou enthusiastically helped Xu Yanbo to take, and the other was Yan Sikong's original work of "Autumn Begonia Falling Yingtu".

In their hands, the theft of the imperial tomb is difficult to report unless Xu Yanbo is exposed.

If the case does not occur, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not be implicated. According to the temperament of the two of them, if anything can be hidden, it is best to hide it for a while.

……

His father disappeared, his mother died, and Momo became an orphan all of a sudden. After a few punches with tea instead of wine, the dust settled, and he was adopted by Su Xiaozhou and sent to the Su family by his resurrection.

Li Yu, who won the box, rushed to Xu Yanbo's private house with Su Xiaozhou.

"Did you cheat just now? Why did I lose all the handles? Tell you, I'm the East Palace boxing champion, and I've never lost! ”

"If you want to gamble and lose, you are not allowed to slander people!"

"No, Momo lives in the Su family, and it is easy to know the secrets of my family, and it will be very troublesome to reveal it."

"We're big men, and we don't know how to take care of children! Besides, Momo is talented and intelligent, and he learned to paint from his little sister, so he may become a generation of Danqing masters in the future. ”

……

"How did you meet someone's concubine?"

"When she was not married, we drank together."

"What did Xu Yanbo do to be demoted and released?"

"Take prostitutes as concubines."

"Wait, the concubine we are going to see now is the Qinglou woman? Have you ever visited the Green House?! ”

"What's the matter, I'm not young! What is it to visit the Qinglou, there is nothing to say about a few concubines! ”

"Hey——, I think you're older than your eldest brother, not me."

"Hmph, you dare!"

……

The two quarreled all the way, and when they arrived in the western suburbs, it was already dark.

Su Xiaozhou was not familiar with the road, and it was not until he saw the Xu family crest hanging outside the door that he decided that the mansion in front of him was what they were looking for.

At that time, Xu Yanbo was ready to accept Yunji as a concubine, and he was worried that the elders in the family would be punished, so he bought an estate in the remote western suburbs, planning to hide in such a golden house until he had children.

He had held several banquets in the mansion and invited his colleagues from the East Palace to attend, but each time she came to find an excuse to decline. Because those guys in the East Palace, one by one, are particularly fond of fighting wine, and they will drink to the death as soon as they get together. What's more, Yun Ji used to be her "old friend", and she wanted to live and die several times to follow her, but she finally avoided it, and it was too embarrassing to meet again.

"I don't even have a light on, it's not like someone lives there."

Wandering in front of the courtyard gate, Li Yu felt that something was wrong with the silence around him.

"I've heard Xu Sheren mention that Yun Ji likes to be quiet, and there is only one old mother, a girl and two handymen in the house. Every time he came, he had to bring the cook with him. Normally, when a banquet is held, you have to drive two carts of servants over. ”

"Tsk, this is the life that a gentleman should have!" Li Yu sighed with emotion.

Su Xiaozhou gave him a blank look, "After marrying me, you can also live this kind of life." ”

"It seems that my father-in-law and brother-in-law plan to spend their blood in order to marry you off! But don't worry, I'm lazy, it's troublesome enough to take care of a lady, so I won't find more things to do for myself outside. Li Yu muttered.

"Who wants you to take care of-"

Su Xiaozhou stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door.

"Knock-knock-"

The brass ring smashed on the paulownia door panel, but no one answered the door for a long time.

Although it was already dark, it seemed too early to rest.

"I'll come—"

Li Yu pushed her away, stepped forward and knocked a few times.

"Squeak—"

The door was opened, but there was no latch.

Su Xiaozhou glanced at him and shouted, "Is there anyone?" I'm from the East Palace, and I'm here to visit Lady Yun Ji. ”

shouted several times in succession, but still no one answered.

"You're not going to move out, are you?"

"Impossible...... The reason why Xu Sheren was demoted was precisely because he refused to abandon Yun Ji. Now that he has been exiled to Lingnan, Yun Ji has no reason to leave. ”

"Go in and see—"

"Trespassing on private houses is not a small crime. We're still ......"

Before he finished speaking, Su Xiaozhou had already been pulled in by Li Yu.

The courtyard was pitch black, and I finally found a lantern on the porch, lit it and continued to walk inside.

The house is not too big, except for the well-repaired courtyard, there are three bamboo buildings, one main and two auxiliary.

The two bamboo buildings on the left and right are all pitch black, only the bamboo building in the middle, and the wing room in the middle reveals a faint light.

"That's it."

Su Xiaozhou shuddered for no reason.

It's a quiet place, and it's hard to imagine that a sung woman can stay here.

Pulling her behind him, Li Yu walked in front with a lantern.

Walking under the window of the bamboo building, he suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?"

Bumped into his back, Su Xiaozhou was startled.

Li Yu turned around, covered her eyes, and said eagerly: "It's so late, maybe it's inconvenient for the master's family." Let's go to Chengguo to find an inn for one night, and come back tomorrow morning! ”

He was very positive just now, how did he get here, and suddenly he had to go home.

Su Xiaozhou was puzzled and wanted to stretch out his head to look, but he pressed him in his arms and turned around in place for half a circle.

"Hmm——, what are you doing?!"

Li Yu's gaze fell on the window sash, and a black shadow was clearly printed.

The shadow was hanging over the beam.

"Fishbones, what do you see?"

Su Xiaozhou finally struggled away, unwilling to want to see what was going on.

Before he could stand, suddenly the sky was spinning, and he was hugged horizontally.

"I'll come back tomorrow, I'll come back tomorrow!" Li Yu couldn't help but say something and walked back.

The story of the ghost crying in the palace can frighten her, and if she sees the person who hangs the beam and commits suicide, wouldn't she be frightened.

……

"Hey, put me down! I can walk on my own—"

Out of the corridor, Su Xiaozhou suddenly shut up.

Faintly you can see the fire outside the courtyard jumping, and the sound of horses' hooves and steps, and the sound of swords and soldiers come into your ears, and you can hear it as a well-trained government soldier.

Li Yu paused, "It's not good to ——, the trap!" ”

Jumping from his arms, Su Xiaozhou looked back and forth, "What the hell is going on?" Was there a snake in the yard just now? With so many soldiers coming outside, shouldn't the case of allowing people to rob the emperor's mausoleum? ! ”

"Shhhh

Li Yu listened attentively, and suddenly asked, "How many masters of the Inner Mansion can you beat alone?" ”

Su Xiaozhou was stunned, "One...... Half of it......"

At this time, a deep shout came from outside the courtyard, "Listen to the people inside!" You are already surrounded, hurry out and tie your hands and arrest you, otherwise, you will be killed! ”

"What should I do?" Su Xiaozhou was nervous for a while.

Stretching out the hand on his waist to draw the knife, Li Yu sighed, "There are at least thirty or fifty people on the other side, all of whom are elite soldiers of the Inner Government. In order to avoid an ugly death, we still tied our hands and caught it. ”
