She and Xiao Lin haven't seen each other for many years, but there are always some similarities between brother and sister, she has seen Xiao Ru, so she naturally recognizes Xiao Lin.

Maybe it's the ancestors who have accumulated virtue, and the skin of the Xiao family is not bad. Xiao Lin is also twenty-six or seventy-seven, and his slightly drunk appearance looks a little suave.

He may not even recognize her when he is sober, and he is even more confused when he is drunk.

The smell of wine was tangy, Mei Xiaoren unfolded the folding fan to cover his nose, retracted his gaze and walked away.

Xiao Lin pointed to the vague figure and asked, "Who is he?"

The little guy shook his head again and again, "Childe, I don't know the little one, maybe it's Cao Ye's guest." ”

Xiao Lin said another: "Go, take care of that boat of horses, and return to Xuanzhou early tomorrow morning." He barely stood firm by relying on the little servant, and said, "By the way, pick the best horse for my brother-in-law, and our business can be done smoothly, all thanks to the care of the tall man." ”

"Yes, yes." The little guy responded again and again.

The boat is traveling on the river, and the night breeze is slightly cool.

Mist shrouded the surface of the river, and Mei Xiaoren stood alone in the bow of the ship.

The boatman said that the downstream of the river is Xuanzhou, and she is still going upstream, heading to Jinzhou City.

Chu Yu is leaving, and the next thing is all up to her, fortunately, she is bold enough, and the master told her not to be afraid, what else do she have to worry about.

What's more, if you can't even clean up the people who hurt you, then what kind of official is it?

There are many large and small gambling houses in the city, and Mei Xiaoren spent two days just looking for such a gambler, spent a lot of money to inquire, and finally caught a person named "Fifth Master" in a gambling house in the East Market.

The gambling hall is mixed, and the wide gambling tables are full of people, and the voices of buying big and small are coming and going, how a miasma.

It was identified that Liu Wu was the one standing at the table and shouting the most. It is said that he had been here for some time, and he had lost a lot of money, and the more he lost, the more unwilling he became, the more he wanted to gamble, and he almost made this place his home.

When Mei Xiaoren squeezed to the table, Liu Wuzheng threw two ingots of silver out of his arms, shouting: "Lao Tzu bought big this time"

The silver rolled around the table a few times before stopping, the bottom facing the direction where Mei Xiaoren was, so that she could clearly see what was engraved on the bottom end of the silver.

The mark of the Bunfu.

It can be seen that the person who made Liu Wu make this windfall is Wen Bin, undoubtedly.

Mei Xiaoren knocked on Liu Wu's shoulder with a folding fan, and said politely: "Can Brother Tai take a step to speak?"

Who knew that Liu Wu turned around and scolded: "Get out, don't you see that the master is busy?"

The dealer of the gambling house also said impatiently: "Where are the idlers, don't interrupt, let the fifth master finish the gamble." ”

Mei Xiaoren withdrew his hand and stood silently for a while. It took her a lot of effort to find out this step, and now the time is no longer delayed, and the human witness is in front of her, she just needs to ask him clearly, and she doesn't need to spend any more time.

But Liu Wu didn't have the leisure to answer her, and she had been grinding for nearly twenty days, and she didn't have any patience left to wait for him to answer.

As the saying goes, if you don't eat a toast, you can't punish wine

Mei Xiaoren was about to leave, but he heard someone around him talking, "Eh, have you heard, the Xiao family's merchant ship was intercepted by Lord Zhizhou this morning." ”

"There's still something to do"

"No, I heard there was something on that ship that shouldn't be there"

"The Xiao family is the Xiao family of Xuanzhou, and Lord Zhizhou can still let him do black business in Jinzhou City"

Mei Xiaoren's rice in his bowl hasn't been cold yet, and he doesn't have time to pay attention to anyone's affairs, and when he listens to it, he goes in and out of his left ear, and he just wants to rush back

Go to the inn, because without further ado, I can't guarantee that Liu Wu will have to change places after losing the silver.

Mei Xiaoren returned to the inn and went straight to Chu Yu's room, just in time to bump into him coming out of it.

She looked up and asked, "Lord Chu, can you please ask the Zhizhou here to do me a favor?"

Chu Yu was puzzled: "What's the matter?"

"I've found human and physical evidence, but it seems difficult for me to get them on my own."

Evening.

The governor of Jinzhou came to the east of the city in person and rushed to the door of the gambling house with countless official errands.

Mei Xiaoren stood on the teahouse next to him and watched, and was amazed that Lord Chu's face was really big enough, he only sent Xingyun to the Zhizhou Yamen, and he was able to invite the Lord of the Prefecture to go out in person.

The officials rushed into the gambling house, and after a while, they caught the person she wanted from inside, and by the way, they searched for the physical evidence she wanted.

Power is such a worry-free thing.

Chu Yu stood beside Mei Xiaoren and asked, "What are your plans after that?"

"This evidence is not enough to determine who is the first one, let me think about it when I return to the academy." Mei Xiaoren said. It doesn't matter if she stays in the city for two more days, but Chu Yu can't afford to delay, not to mention that the evidence in the city has been found, and she should go back to the academy.

Mei Xiaoren arched his hand towards Chu Yu, "Thank you Lord Chu for your help, tonight Linglong Pavilion, I please." ”

The moon and stars are scarce, and it is the time when the Linglong Pavilion is full of lights.

Mei Xiaoren sat on the windowsill of the wing room, drinking and enjoying the singing and dancing in the middle of the lake.

She looked at the dancing woman for a while, shook her head with a wine glass and sighed: "This person is far worse than the previous Linglong girl." ”

When she saw Xiao Lin that day, she couldn't help but think of Yan Linglong, who should be in Xiao Lin's mansion now. In addition, she also remembered the instructions of the Wei University, and after returning to Xuanzhou, she would try to go to see how Yan Linglong was doing on behalf of the Wei University.

Chu Yu glanced indifferently downstairs and then withdrew his gaze and drank silently.

"Why would Scholar Wei marry a woman like Mrs. Wei" Mei Xiaoren took a sip of wine and pondered, "Isn't the girl he likes?"

"Parents' orders." Chu Yu looked at her and said lightly, "And you don't need to feel sorry, because there is never a shortage of women named Linglong around him." ”

"The scholar is also quite helpless." Mei Xiaoren shook his head, leaned his head against the window lattice, his eyes were not drunk but unfocused, and sighed: "What annoys me the most is the words of my parents." ”

She stood up with her wine glass, stood by the window and sighed: "If I had to choose, I would also choose Linglong Girl, she can be regarded as the most gentle and lovely woman I have ever seen." He asked Chu Yu with a smile, "Master, there are many ladies in the capital, is there any fair lady who makes you unforgettable?"

No one had ever asked him this question, and Chu Yu didn't know how to answer for a while, because he rarely had any woman in his eyes.

If he had to answer, then he could only pick up a woman with some impressions and say that in terms of the memories remaining, the woman and the word "slender" are also consistent.

He said: "The young lady of the Xiao family in Yunxian County, have you seen it?"

Mei Xiaoren brought the wine to his lips, took a sip, and bit the edge of the wine glass, and his heart thumped a few times.

It seems that her original performance was okay, but even Lord Chu was blinded.

"That young lady." Mei Xiaoren deserved to be apprehensive, frowning and said, "I think she is very ordinary, really ordinary"

Mei Xiaoren's heart was empty, he heard footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, Xingyun came, and it seemed that he had something to report.

Xingyun stood in front of the door and didn't come in, still offering things with both hands: "Master, the letter of the scholar." ”
