Chapter 223: Surfacing

Early in the morning, Luo Feng and Qi Yan left the Tanji Pavilion and went to Beishi. They bought some things for the kids and took them back to them.

There were two young men who had been following Luo Feng and his wife from afar. Behind those two people, the corners of Gu Xiaodong's mouth in a straw hat rose slightly, and he stood under the shadow of the tree with a smile and looked at them.

Mo Yu went to Dongshi, and a man with a long beard followed him. Nie Yang changed into a chivalrous outfit and stared at the beard with a hood.

After Luo Feng and his wife returned to the Tanji Pavilion, Qi Yan went to rest. Luo Feng sat at the stone table in the courtyard and waited quietly to drink tea, waiting for Gu Xiaodong and the others who acted according to the plan.

Gu Xiaodong secretly followed the two young men to a tavern. Gu Xiaodong was taken aback when he saw the name of the tavern. Opposite this tavern is the side entrance of Jing'er's house.

Gu Xiaodong was just about to enter the tavern, when he suddenly saw a carriage parked next to the side door.

A man in official uniform stepped down from the carriage. Gu Xiaodong saw that the man was thin and had a beard under his chin. His eyes were large, and his nose was fleshless.

The man turned his head to look around, then knocked on the door. Gu Xiaodong hid behind a tree next to the tavern and watched the man enter Li Wen's mansion.

Gu Xiaodong turned around and wanted to enter the tavern, but he suddenly remembered the last time he followed Zhuang Shi, and he rashly broke into Buzhuang and ruined the plan to keep the king. So, Gu Xiaodong waited outside the tavern door for the two people to come out.

Gu Xiaodong didn't wait for the two of them, but saw the person who had entered Li Wen's mansion come out. The housekeeper of the Li Mansion sent him off with a smile, and the official got into the carriage and left.

Luo Feng saw that it was not early, so he personally cooked a table of wine and food.

Nie Yang and Mo Yu walked into the courtyard gate together. Luo Feng called Qi Yan out for dinner.

As soon as the four of them sat down, Gu Xiaodong came back. He walked quickly to the table and said, "The two I followed went into a tavern and never came out again!" ”

"Does the tavern have a back door?" Luo Feng handed the chopsticks to Gu Xiaodong.

"Absolutely nothing! Behind is the gable of another house! Gu Xiaodong is determined.

"It's definitely their message point! No hurry! Let's eat first. Luo Feng sandwiched vegetables for Gu Xiaodong.

Nie Yang waited for everyone to put down their chopsticks before he spoke: "We followed the man, and when he crossed the bridge on West Street, he suddenly disappeared!" ”

"We fell into the trap designed by Han Zixin in Xishan Pass and were almost burned to death! That's when I suspected that she was hiding somewhere on West Street. Then we searched the Yan family teahouse where they were hiding. She fled with someone, but she didn't expect her to dare to live there! Luo Feng clenched his fists.

"Arrest someone?" Gu Xiaodong handed the bowl in front of him to Mo Yu, who was cleaning up the table.

"Let's go and discuss with the Pavilion Master together." Luo Feng stood up.

After Dongfang Xuyu and Li Xuehua listened to Gu Xiaodong and Nie Yang's report, the husband and wife thought that Han Zixin was just a small fish that was thrown out, and the real big fish had not yet been found.

After Luo Feng and the others left the council hall, they discussed it and decided to monitor the two places that had been seized by them.

After Han Zixin returned to the capital, her temperament was much more restrained. Oni Five is dead, and her mission has failed, so she doesn't have the high-flying and domineering appearance she used to have. But to her surprise, her new master did not rebuke her, and not even a letter came.

"Sang Zi! Won't you go and see your master? Han Zixin wanted to know the truth about the attack in front of the palace in the capital. Although she had heard about it, it was just a rumor after all.

"Our mission failed, or ......" Sang Zi was also afraid that he would be punished.

"Yes!" Han Zixin certainly understood Sang Zi's situation.

In fact, Sang Zi had already sent Ghost Six back to restore his life. Although Han Zixin lost this time, she also tried her best. Besides, the new master was injured by Qi Yan, and there are many things that Han Zixin needs to do in the future. No matter how angry he was, he couldn't be angry with Han Zixin.

Qi Shan saw that she couldn't find the place where Qi Yan was buried and couldn't solve the mystery of her life and death, so she was ready to return to the territory of the Meizu to resume her life.

"You don't want to die! How long will it take? "Han Zixin really doesn't understand why Qi Shan has to go back to die? Is love really so terrible? She couldn't help but think of the crown prince, who is now the new emperor. He treated her very well, but she almost hurt his whole family!

The crown prince became the emperor and named Wei as the queen, but he always remembered Han Zixin in his heart. He also knew that Han Zixin was a charmer, but his feelings were not up to him.

The queen of heaven asked Luo Feng and others to arrest Han Zixin. The imperial court also ordered her to be wanted, and although he was a noble son of heaven, he could not show favoritism. He also knew that she deserved to die, but he still hoped that she would live.

Luo Feng of the Tanji Pavilion returned to his courtyard with the portraits of the five courtiers who colluded with Mei and some of their materials that Li Xuehua gave him.

"Why would they gamble with their lives and the lives of their families?" Qi Yan, who was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, asked puzzled when she saw the portraits that Luo Feng came over and put in front of her.

"Man's greed knows no bounds. They eat the king's money, but they don't know how to worry about the king. took the food and salary of the imperial court, but ignored the laws of the imperial court, and even disregarded the life and death of the people! Luo Feng sighed and sat down beside Qi Yan.

"Brother Luo! Sister-in-law! Xiaodong and I went to the market and bought fresh fruit, and you can taste it too! Jing'er walked into the courtyard with a basket of fruits and Gu Xiaodong.

"Brother Luo! What do you guys do here? Gu Xiaodong picked up a portrait and looked at it.

"Huh? I know this man! Jing'er! I followed the two spies to the tavern that day and saw this man enter the side door of your house.

Gu Xiaodong blurted out.

When Luo Feng heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked. He hurriedly said, "You talk, I'll pack these things up in the house!" Luo Feng entered the house with those portraits and materials.

Jing'er picked the largest fruit and handed it to Qi Yan. Luo Feng looked at Qi Yan and the three of them with a solemn expression, talking and laughing. But his heart was heavy.

Gu Xiaodong's words made him realize that the black hand behind it was very likely to be Jing'er's father Li Wen.

Li Wen was introduced to the capital by himself. If the incident happens, he and Tanji Pavilion will have nothing to do with it! But Luo Feng knows deeply that if this mastermind behind the scenes is not removed, the two clans will never be at peace!

After Gu Xiaodong and Jing'er left, Luo Feng went to Dongfang Xuyu's study. It happened that Li Xuehua was also there, so Luo Feng told Dongfang Xuyu and his wife about it.

When Dongfang Xu heard this, his eyebrows were twisted together. He knew the consequences of this incident, and couldn't help but look at his wife Li Xuehua.

"I'll go to the palace to see the queen of heaven and show her money!" Li Xuehua pondered for a long time, got up and was about to leave.

Dongfang Xuyu suddenly said, "Slow! Don't you think about the consequences? ”

"Even if the Tanji Pavilion is gone! We can't let the charm mess with the capital! Li Xuehua's words were sonorous and powerful, which made Luo Feng admire.

Dongfang Xuyu's face flushed slightly, he looked at his wife's back and said secretly, "You haven't changed at all!" ”

Luo Feng went to Gu Xiaodong's residence. He explained the situation to Gu Xiaodong and others. Gu Xiaodong sat at the table and looked at the teapot in a daze, silent. No wonder Li Wen wants Jing'er to go with him! It turns out that he is the one behind it! Gu Xiaodong's heart fell to the bottom. If Jing'er knew about this, would she still be with her?
