A whole hour passed, and almost all the lights in the surrounding mansions were turned off, and the guards sent by Bo Zhaoxu returned one after another to report, but they gave the same answer.

Nothing was found.

Not to mention the people who blended into the house, they didn't even have hair that shouldn't have grown.

"It's not necessarily that you are mistaken, the matter of you and I coming to Juncheng is still not hidden tightly enough, but at least now, no one is hiding in the courtyard, you can rest assured for the time being. Tomorrow, I'll send more people to guard the courtyard. ”

Xiang Yeqi in Bo Zhaoxu's arms was wrapped in fox fur, leaving only a somewhat aggrieved little head, which Bo Zhaoxu couldn't help but rub twice, and even wanted to ask someone to make a pair of fluffy ears for Xiang Yeqi.

Xiang Ye's head was rubbed a little messy by the man, just like two ears that were propped up, but she didn't know it herself, and shook her head: "You have left a lot of hands for me, I can take care of myself, and I will be relieved to know that there is no one in the courtyard." You should still keep more people by your side, after all, you have been busy inquiring about the details of the Xie family's gambling house these days, and those people are much more dangerous. ”

She couldn't calm down in her heart, so she got out of Bo Zhaoxu's arms and found out her only luggage - white paper and ink pen, and the red seal of "Yiwen", which was printed on the corner.

Rounded, this is an anti-counterfeiting mark.

This time it was Bo Zhaoxu's turn to poke his head curiously and put his lower hand against Xiang Ye'er's shoulder: "It's so late, what is Yan'er writing?" ”

The itch on his shoulders made Xiang Yeqi twist his neck uncontrollably, kissed Bo Zhaoxu's cheek instead, and shared a fat red and sweet syrup for others.

Bo Zhaoxu stroked the lip powder on his cheeks and blew next to people's ears: "I only learned today that lip fat is also sweet."

Xiang Yeyan snorted softly, and went to write his new journal, and gradually came back to his senses, and then responded to Bo Zhaoxu's words: "The matter of those men kneeling down to the temple does have something to do with me, and you still said that you want to give me a credit." I wrote an anecdote today, and you can use this as an article when you return to Beijing in the future, so that those county officials and city officials in Juncheng can admit the flaws in the regulations, and you still have to focus on the regulations of the DPRK and China. ”

That's the idea she had from the beginning.

It is still too superficial to let those greedy men get some flesh diseases, and the most important thing is to let those people's infamy be made public in a generous manner, so that Bo Zhaoxu can use this to write some articles, so as to introduce Juncheng's own rules is unreasonable, and there are many mistakes.

At that time, no matter how forcible the attitude of the city lord of the monarch city is, it will not be able to withstand the fact that he has raised a bunch of men who oppress the people.

Juncheng is not as strong as other cities, and if he loses the support of the people, then the position of the lord of Juncheng will no longer have to be done.

What we need to do now is to make this matter as big as possible.

Xiang Yeqi almost took a sip of the ink on the corner of the paper as clear tea, absent-minded to the extreme, Bo Zhaoxu saw this, handed over the teacup, and whispered softly: "You don't have to hold on, it's not an emergency." ”

"I'm fine."

Xiang Yeqi squinted and smiled bitterly, but his stomach growled, so he had to change the topic and chew the pastry on the side: "The matter of the Xie family's gambling house, how is your investigation?"

"Lord Xie has probably been deceived too."

"What?"

"The so-called Hu businessman seems to be a confidant and friend of the current gambling house manager, this person should know the origin and purpose of the other party very well, and he also harbored a lot of Hu prisoners who had a criminal record in the gambling house, and he is also a somewhat dangerous person, but there is no evidence now, so he can only wait for the opportunity."

I'm afraid that Lord Xie accepted such a dangerous bird, and he really fell into this person's trap early and became part of the plan.

"There's always going to be a chance."

After writing a new issue of "Anecdotes" to Yeqi, he handed it over to the guards on the side to print it on his behalf, and the reputation of "Anecdotes" is now very loud, except that almost no one knows the author, and it is almost a hard currency to testify to whether a person understands current affairs or not.

Following.

Bo Zhaoxu still has something to do, and Xiang Yeqi is also like being trapped in yesterday, still a little worried about the figure that disappeared abruptly, and lost his mind again during breakfast.

"Why don't you think that Your Majesty is hiding from you, what little girl is hidden in the corner of the courtyard? After all, those guards are still His Majesty's people, maybe they will help His Majesty hide it from you, and then go to His Majesty's to ask for merit and reward...... This has always been the case with emperors. ”

Ying Yan's words were more like a joke, shrugging helplessly at Yeqi, who had never had any thoughts related to it in the first place.

Not to mention that she already trusts Bo Zhaoxu's character, she has seen Bo Zhaoxu's fiery heart cut out for herself, just talking about the strangeness of that woman, it can't be called a golden house hidden Jiaojiao, but more like a desert after being discovered, but even if she is in a hurry to escape. A minimum of decency should also be maintained.

How can it be a running with a rolling belt, as if it can't even walk?

……

Xiang Yeqi stared at this girl who had just talked to him, and suddenly felt as if something was not right.

"Yingyan?"

She jumped up from the stool and hid a few steps in a hurry, repeatedly checking whether the person in front of her was Yingyan. She wasn't supposed to travel around with the queen, so how could she be here?

Xiang Yeqi asked, "Your master is also in Juncheng?"

"No, my subordinates don't know where the master and the county lord are now, maybe they are heading to the north, or traveling in Nanzhao, but their subordinates have been by Niangniang's side, secretly sheltering."

"And what about your master?"

Ying Yan smiled: "There are other people guarding the master's side, but you should keep some capable people around you, in case something happens, there should always be a reliable person."

Xiang Yeqi pondered in his heart, is there still no one around him?

Not to mention Bo Zhaoxu's decathlon force value ceiling, in the palace, many female officials rushed to follow her to "protect", and outside, Bo Zhaoxu's guards could guard themselves so that mosquitoes couldn't bite them.

"Miss Yingyan, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding, just outside the house, there are seven or eight guards guarding it."

"It's different, Niangniang, my master is also worried about you, and there is no handy character around you, so it still won't work out. The southern guard is indeed doing things safely, but after all, he is a man, and he is His Majesty's manpower, and there are some things that you can't always leave to him to do, and at this time, your subordinates can. ”

"For example?"

Xiang Yeqi wondered for a while, he really hadn't met much, what could he do only Yingyan could do.

And just because she was curious for a while, she listened to Yingyan and say the "palace fighting cheats" for an hour, from how to win favor if Bo Zhaoxu had a new favorite, to how to make the people who compete for favor quietly slippery tires, and how to plan a good show of borrowing a knife to lose the baby, which opened the door to a new world for Xiang Yeqi.

In this regard, Xiang Yeqi had a headache when he heard this, and he also cooperated and applauded Yingyan.

"Miss Yingyan, I really have something I want to entrust you with, his guards will inevitably have rough branches, Miss Yingyan can help me check the courtyard to see if there are any suspicious characters?"

Hearing this, Ying Yan shook her head instead: "I listened to the movement in the courtyard last night, and my subordinates also secretly searched the house up and down, but it was true that no suspicious person was found, maybe that person had fled after being discovered by Niangniang, and it was indeed a little difficult to find her in the courtyard."

That's all there is to say.

Xiang Yeyu shook his head helplessly, and saw that the food in front of the table was cold, so he got up and picked up the dishes in front of him and ran to the small kitchen.

There is only one cook in the stove room, who manages the food of everyone in the courtyard on weekdays, Rao is Bo Zhaoxu and others came here, she also coped with it very properly, and her skills are not inferior to the famous chefs in Beijing.

But seeing that she frowned today, anxiously running between the stoves, sweating profusely in a hurry, and kept muttering: "It's really strange, obviously I was here last night, why is there nothing left?" It's not that you can't get enough to eat, how can you steal these things all day long, weird, what a weirdo, alas! ”

Although the cook was a little worried, she was still distracted when she saw that Xiang Yeqi called the master.

Xiang Yeqi put the dishes on the stove, and the cook stepped forward to help her with all kinds of worries: "Master, just let the slave and maid do these jobs, you will torture the slave and maid."

She was panicked and anxious in her heart, for fear that the implication of Xiang Ye's words was that she was not quick enough, and she even had to serve dishes to Ye'an.

Xiang Yeqi didn't think too much, and even felt that this person was a little polite.

"It's not too much trouble, so I naturally do it."

She cleaned up the stove with the cook, and then asked, "What is missing from the stove?" Precious? ”

"It's not a valuable thing, it's just some leftover food, now it's lost some cut steamed buns, if it weren't for the slave who was worried about the hot heat to give to the other door to eat, they might not pay attention to the loss of these things, today, but I lost a lot of things! I don't know who did it! ”

The more the cook thought about it, the more angry she became, and she picked it up and showed Xiang Yeqian the empty bowl with only some steamed bun stubbles left: "Look, there is nothing left!"

Take a closer look at the night, the bowl is not very clean, it should have been stolen in a hurry. is to guess: "Could it be that someone is too hungry at night to come to the stove room to steal food?"

"The minions think the same thing, but the minions have never starved them, so why bother with stealing them!" The cook sighed, "You don't know, although the master doesn't come to Juncheng all the year round, the silver taels allocated to Juncheng's mansion have always been only a lot more, and they have never been hungry, and the slave is afraid......"

"Afraid of what?"

The cook looked around suspiciously, knocked on the door very cautiously, and then whispered: "The slave is afraid, and he let something unclean be eaten." You ordered those with knives last night to look for anyone suspicious, but the minions didn't dare to say anything - I'm afraid it's that one! ”
