Xiao Heng sorted out the things in his heart, set the next plan, and then went to sleep.

In the early morning of Kasahi, early in the morning, there were voices in the courtyard, and it seemed that someone was talking in a low voice. Xiao Heng had just woken up, and when he heard the voice, his nerves instantly tensed, he hid the dagger in his sleeve and pushed open the courtyard door-

Different from the imaginary assassins and the like, it was a protégé, wearing a green bamboo robe, and was theorizing with Yun Huai: "Your master just came yesterday, doesn't this mean that you want to visit...... Eh, this is the new Yun Hengyun Gongzi, right? ”

For convenience, Xiao Heng changed his name. Seeing that the person who came was not malicious, he hid the dagger and nodded: "It's exactly below." I don't know why this son came? ”

The boy arched his hand to him: "Fortunately, I will be lucky." It's not yesterday that I heard that a new son came, and as soon as he came, he became a second-class protégé, so he thought about coming to visit today. My name is Ang Lee, and I am also a second-class protégé. ”

Xiao Heng also bowed his hand politely: "Li Gongzi." I don't know what advice Li Gongzi has? ”

"Seeing that you are new to the school, you may not understand some things very well, so I specially came to guide one or two......"

Ang Lee is a lively and enthusiastic character, and he became familiar with him after two times, and talked to Xiao Heng endlessly. Xiao Heng had no intention of contacting other people, but after listening to Li An for a while, he had a lot of basic information in the Mu Mansion, so he listened to it.

"Yun Gongzi, the treatment of the second- and third-class protégés is also different, and the protégés of different classes also sit in different positions during the feast. Oh speaking of this feast, it is a great event for protégés, and one day every year all the protégés will be feasted, and then all will gather in the great hall here, and if they are appreciated at the feast, there will be rewards, and even officials will do it......"

In the midst of this conversation, a few more people came, and the quiet courtyard suddenly became lively and crowded. After talking all morning, at noon, Li An and the others were reluctant to go back to rest. Xiao Heng took a sip of cold tea and shook his head: "I can really speak well, if I talk to such people around me every day, I am afraid that I will be annoyed to death." Now he understands why Mu Zongxin wants to open another mansion.

Yun Huai poured him hot tea and said, "It is also helpful for the master to communicate with other people more, which is also helpful for his own affairs." ”

Xiao Heng nodded, sorting out the things he had just heard about the Mu family. The Mu family's big business is more than what he found out, and they are all small shops, but there are a lot of them, so if you want to check it, you can't find anything, it seems that this matter is not simple. There is also the matter of Zhao Xianxian, it is estimated that it is also a big matter, he knocked on the side a few times, and Li An didn't mention this star at all, it seems that he still has to rely on himself.

In the next few days, Li An and others often came to communicate, and all kinds of news knew faster than Xiao Heng's secret guards.

"Eh, have you heard of it, Liu Yuan, the waiter, was arrested recently!"

"Liu Yuan? Isn't he quite incorruptible? If you are a good official and don't commit any crimes, how can you be arrested? ”

"Yo, still incorruptible? When Dali Temple went to arrest people, the house looked poor and white, and even the table was missing a corner, who knew that there was a basement under the study? ”

"Basement?" Xiao Heng's hand holding the cup paused.

"Isn't that? It was full of gold, silver, and jewelry, and there were five or six chests of it! Liu Yuan's old guy is really hiding deep enough, who can see it? ”

"I used to think he was a good official, I'm sorry!"

"That's right......"

Xiao Heng turned the teacup in his hand slightly, and his mind also turned rapidly.

Zhao Xianxian's matter is very important, if you want to find some clues and go to the secret place, the best thing is that the basement is a good choice. However, the basement of the Mu family will not be easy to find...... He slowly had a countermeasure in his heart.

He took a sip of tea, took advantage of the fact that the group of people finally stopped, and asked: "Speaking of which, didn't you say that there would be a big banquet to invite all the protégés, why haven't you seen any news?" I'm waiting to get promoted. ”

Li An shook the folding fan and said with a smile: "Brother Yun is a second-class student, how can he be so anxious!" This feast is in a hurry, most of it is in early autumn, but I got the gossip that this year I am afraid that it will be a lot earlier, maybe in another month, there will be. ”

Xiao Heng nodded, chatted a few more words, and sent everyone. The big feast, when the whole courtyard is over, the people of the Mu family will gather in the main hall, at that time, the Mu Mansion, isn't it all free to come and go?

When his thoughts were turning, Yun Huai stepped forward to report and interrupted his train of thought: "Childe, there is a letter." ”

Xiao Heng glanced at him and walked back to the room. On the table was a letter with a small mark on the back. Xiao Heng opened it, it was a reply from the secret guard in the name of his family, saying that his observations over the past few days found that every time on the third, thirteenth, and twenty-third days of each month, a second housekeeper of the Mu family would go to Xinxiang Building, from a hidden back door, and came back for a long time, and when he came back, he would go to see Mu Zongxin, and his appearance was suspicious. Xiao Heng frowned, picked up the pen and wrote a reply, asking them to continue to follow up.

This is a key clue, if it is said to be a collection of accounts and the like, it is not the turn of a second housekeeper; And what's the matter, you have to always follow up with the same person, and hide the mystery and secret, and return to Mu Zongxin immediately after you come back?

After thinking for a moment, he ordered the dark guard to follow up carefully, and on the 23rd, he went to see it himself.

Xiao Heng paused for a moment, and added another sentence at the end: Ask Gu Gongzi to reply a letter of peace to his wife, saying that everything is fine with me, and there is no need to worry about it.

No matter how much you are entangled in affairs, in front of your family, you still have a sentence that everything is fine, and you don't have to worry about it.
