Being stared at by Mu Yu's burning eyes, Xie Chongning naturally understood what she meant, and continued with thin lips, "The right to sell salt belongs to the imperial court, but it is actually in the cabinet, and it is not uncommon for Mu Liangxuan to have access to salt now that he is working in the cabinet." ”

Mu Yu suddenly realized, and then Xie Chongning's words continued, "So the reason why these three people found Mu Liangxuan is that Mu Liangxuan can help them get the right to sell salt?" ”

"The right to sell is not necessarily." Xie Chongning pursed his lips, "Those who can get the right to sell are all big stores, and they ...... At most, count away. Private. ”

"But selling illicit salt is a capital offense!" Sure enough, as he thought, this Mu Liangxuan was simply looking for death, and he dared to participate in such a thing as selling illicit salt.

"As long as there are benefits, capital crimes are not terrible for them." Xie Chongning swept the three people downstairs disappreciatively, and probably confirmed the identities of these people.

Mu Yu put down the teacup and teased his fingers with sorrow. This is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, a while ago, there was just a human trafficker Mu Hening in the Luanping Hou Mansion, and now there is a Mu Liangxuan who sells illicit salt, this is really the Luanping Hou Mansion.

She thought she had escaped Xie Chongning, but behind this, she didn't know how many things were left, and she was going to be worried.

Xie Chongning saw her frowning, and he knew what she was thinking. "Sanfang is not right, it is not surprising that Mu Liangxuan can do such a thing."

"But they will affect the entire Hou Mansion." Mu Yu sighed.

Xie Chongning's expression was cold, and he put down the teacup elegantly, there were many things in the Luanping Marquis Mansion, and it was inconvenient for him to say more, but it was only a matter of time before the Luanping Marquis Mansion would not escape.

"I don't know if I've found out about Mu Liangxuan's problem, whether it's a good thing or a bad thing." Mu Yu looked at the three people downstairs who were about to leave, and immediately sat up straight, "They are leaving, let's follow." ”

Xie Chongning didn't say a word, just cooperated with Mu Yu's actions, saying that he was accompanying her to solve the case, but it couldn't be more appropriate to use the word guard to describe Xie Chongning.

The three of them went around again, and then walked back to the road where they found Mu Yu yesterday, and it seemed that their stronghold was indeed in the north of the city.

"No one is following us today?" The elf said.

"It's better to be careful and subtle, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, and those white embroidered shoes, I seem to have seen them somewhere." Squinting and frowning, he couldn't remember where he had seen those embroidered shoes.

When Mu Yanyan heard this, he immediately looked at his feet, fortunately, he changed a pair of shoes today, but the white embroidered shoes seemed to be no longer worn, and it would not be good if they found out.

"The shoes you wore that day, remember burning." Xie Chongning reminded.

"Burned? Can't throw it away? Mu Yu subconsciously asked rhetorically.

Xie Chongning raised his eyes and looked at the three of them calmly, "It's hard to guarantee that they won't see it, it will only increase the danger for you, and burn the safest." ”

The three of them finally entered a large deserted courtyard, which used to be a beautiful courtyard, but after a fire, it was deserted, and the family that lived here moved away.

From the outside, the courtyard is still desolate, because the willow trees in the wall have not been repaired for a long time, most of the branches have poked out of the wall, and the red paint on the wall has also fallen off, which is very defeated.

But the only thing that is different is the gate of this courtyard, which is reddish-brown because it is stained with some dust, and it is impossible to see the old and the new, but the handle on the door and the deadbolt connected to the wall are new, which is enough to see that this door should be newly installed.

"I don't know what the situation is in this courtyard, but this gate is new, and it is strange compared to the fallen walls, they must have reinstalled the gate." Mu Yu expressed his thoughts.

"I'm telling you, maybe there's some secret in this yard." Xie Chongning agreed.

Although it was tracked to this yard, it was difficult to save it, "We tracked it here, and we couldn't get in, so what should we do after that?" ”

"Who says you can't get in?" Xie Chongning hooked his lips and asked, he glanced at the brown-red door and said, "It's just that if you go in now, you will inevitably startle the snake." ”

Xie Chongning's martial arts are strong, what can he do with this gambling wall, wouldn't it be easy for him to climb over the wall and enter, but he didn't need to take such a risk for himself.

Mu Yu thought for a while, thinking that he still didn't want to trouble Xie Chongning to waste time for himself, "This kind of sneaky thing still doesn't bother Lord Xie, I'm very grateful that my lord can help me track them together......"

Before she could finish speaking, Xie Chongning's dark eyes became deeper and deeper, interrupting her, "Don't bother me, who are you going to find for you to check?" Mu Yi? ”

Mu Yu was stunned, she didn't want to tell her eldest brother about this, she was afraid that her eldest brother would be too impulsive and directly ask Mu Liangxuan for trouble, so she shook her head.

"Then besides me, do you have a candidate?"

It seems that there is really none, and there are only Xie Chongning and the eldest brother who are strong in martial arts around her, and the others are not worth mentioning at all. "But if you trouble Lord Xie for this matter, it's not good after all."

"You're going to marry me, and you're afraid of bothering me." Xie Chongning said calmly, for some reason, when this voice reached Mu Yu's ears, there was a sense of teasing.

Mu Yu raised his head slightly, looked at Xie Chongning's handsome face that had not changed for thousands of years, and felt that he was thinking too much, "That...... Then it's troublesome? She replied tentatively, with apprehension in her eyes.

"Okay." Xie Chongning's deep eyes drooped slightly, and he indifferently accepted Mu Yu's commission.

Mu Yu thought that he had such a commission, Xie Chongning would reply to himself later, but he didn't expect that night, just after she cut the candle, the window was pushed outward, only listening to the sound of hunting wind, she straightened up and nervously grabbed the scissors in her hand.

Someone's coming in! I don't know who it is.

"It's me." A familiar voice sounded from her ears, it was Xie Chongning, but he was dressed in a night suit that blended into the night, and Mu Yu Shen Mei, who had just cut the candle flame, couldn't see it.

"Lord Xie? Why did you come here at this time? As soon as the question came out, Mu Yu felt as if he had asked many times, and then changed his words, "Could it be that the adults went to that courtyard today?" ”

"Not yet." Xie Chongning, who was in the dark, replied indifferently.

You haven't been there yet, so what are you doing here? Mu Yu was stunned, "Then the adult is going to go now?" ”

"Hmm." In fact, when he rushed into Mu Yu's window, he also realized that he came to her at this time, as if it was a bit of a superfluous move, "Do you want to go together?" ”

"Can I go along?" Mu Yu looked at the white undershirt on her body, in fact, she was really a little moved, she was a modern person, and she had never experienced the feeling of breaking into the house at night in ancient times, so she couldn't help but be a little curious.

Heartbeat is heartbeat, but she doesn't know martial arts, if she goes, won't it be to drag Xie Chongning's hind legs? "But if I go with me, Lord Xie still has to take care of me, isn't it a little inconvenient?" Or does Xie Chongning feel that he is strong in martial arts, and it doesn't matter if he takes care of her a waste, so he can take himself with him?

She vaguely looked forward to it, and Xie Chongning's answer was the latter.

But there was silence for a long time in the dark night, and Mu Yu even wanted to wonder if Xie Chongning took advantage of his inattention and left again, "Then you still don't go, I will tell you the result tomorrow." ”

Saying that, the man decisively and simply went out of the window again, his arrival was a small episode, as if it was completely to arouse Mu Yu's curiosity, teased her heart, and then left decisively, leaving Mu Yu alone in front of the extinguished candle, at a loss.

She held the scissors suspiciously, and couldn't help asking, so what did Xie Chongning do in a night suit just now? He didn't even think about taking himself with him!

Mu Yu put down the scissors in his hand angrily, strode to the bedside, pulled the quilt to his chest with both hands, but he couldn't sleep anymore, and the sleepiness in his body had faded most of it when Xie Chongning broke in, and now he was even more angry at all.

Finally, when she met Xie Chongning on the second day, she looked listless, and her eyelids were still blue, compared to Xie Chongning who didn't take herself on the expedition, she was more puzzled by what Xie Chongning's confused behavior last night meant, so she thought about it for a while, who would have thought that when she realized it, the sky was already bright.

Xie Chongning looked at the dark green under her eyes, and asked softly in a magnetic voice, "Didn't you sleep well?" ”

Mu Yu's onion pointed to his sideburns, and denied it with a smile, "No, I just don't know if the adult's trip went smoothly last night?" There were no injuries. ”

Xie Chongning couldn't help but associate her question with today's haggard appearance, could it be that this girl was worried about herself all night, so she didn't fall asleep?

If Mu Yu knew what Xie Chongning was thinking now, she would definitely refute it, she was not worried about Xie Chongning's safety, she knew how strong Xie Chongning's martial arts were! She just didn't fall asleep.

"I didn't hurt, but I didn't get anything." Xie Chongning's expression was the same as usual, but his voice seemed to have a lightness and gentleness from Mi E. "These people are vigilant, and nothing has been found in the yard."

"That's right, I'm a little too anxious, if these people are really selling illicit salt, how can the goods be in the capital." Mu Yu blamed himself a little and let Xie Chongning run away in vain.

"It's not that you're in a hurry, it just means that these people are very cautious." At the beginning, Xie Chongning would agree to accompany Mu Yu to investigate together, just to protect her safety, but last night's trip made him, the Dali Siqing, concerned about this matter.

Although the yard has not been repaired for a long time, it is still tidy, and the three of them have lived here for a while. And when it comes to table salt, there is no trivial matter.

But most of those involved in the sale of illicit salt are involved in rebellion, and he really has to pay close attention to these people.

"But what now?" There is no starting point for things now, could it be that she wants to go to Mu Liangxuan to find out?

Xie Chongning said with a straight face, "I will send someone to follow these three people, so don't interfere." ”
