Chapter Eighty-Seven: Calculation

"Miss used this sentence to perfunctory me every time, and in the blink of an eye I didn't remember it again. Miss, you often say that good people have good rewards, but why doesn't Miss have any good fortune at all? Caiyu looked unconvinced, and Huangfu Xue smiled a little moved when she saw her like this, "It's probably because I haven't done enough good things." Okay, let's go and rest. ”

After Caiyu left, Huangfu Xue got up and came to the window. Pushing open the window, a cold wind blew, and after autumn, the temperature at night became cooler day by day, and now it is a little cold when wearing gauze clothes. Huangfu Xue tightened her clothes, looked up at the bright moonlight, and saw that the starry sky was so beautiful. Looking at this beautiful scene, all the unhappiness in my heart was blown away like the wind for a while. Disappear.

"An Mingchen, I heard that the situation in Jiangnan has been brought under control, and the dam is about to be completed, you should come back soon."

Huangfu Xue looked at the silent night and muttered a few words, then turned around and went back to the house. An Mingchen, who was thousands of miles away, seemed to be in love with him, and he was also standing in front of the window at this time, looking at the starry sky, he suddenly missed someone, and he didn't know if he was doing well now, whether he missed him. Thinking of that girl's stubborn temperament, I'm afraid that even if I think about it, I won't admit it. But he missed her, really wanted to miss her.

"My lord, the dam will be completed in almost three days, and Mrs. Li has come again today to ask your lord when they can leave there."

Mrs. Li has been living in the thatched hut at the foot of the mountain for a few days, and she lived well at first, but the last four weeks have not been very peaceful, Mrs. Li is not afraid of death, but he is worried about his two children, so he has brought him news from time to time these days, for fear that he will forget them.

An Mingchen looked at the silent night and pondered for a moment, "Let's take them back tomorrow, there is nothing to do at the dam recently, and Mrs. Li's matter should be over." An Mingchen has not been idle in the past few days, and sent people to check in Shangzhuang Village for a few days, and finally found some clues, although these clues cannot directly correct Lord Liu on the spot, it can also be concluded that she has nothing to do with this matter.

Lord Liu seems to be shrewd and sophisticated, but he is actually timid and afraid, as long as he makes good use of this, he will not worry about not being able to ask a result. The guards responded and left. An Mingchen stood in front of the window for a while, and when he was close the window, he went to bed.

On the second day, An Mingchen still woke up very early, and the people outside had already begun to clean, when An Mingchen got dressed and came out, Mrs. Li stood at the door with two children, and when she came out, she knelt on the ground with a pop, An Mingchen hurriedly stepped forward when she saw this, "What is Mrs. Li doing, hurry up." ”

"My lord, the woman knows that it is the woman who makes the adult embarrassed, but the woman really has no choice, the Li family only has these two children, if they have any more accidents, the woman dies and has no face to see the ancestors of the Li family. My lord, I beg you to help the women. ”

Dabao is sensible and has been kowtowing with Mrs. Li, the little girl is still young, I don't know what my mother and brother are doing, but the director still kowtows with them. An Mingchen stepped forward to help them, but Mrs. Li pushed him away.

"My lord, you let the folk woman finish." Mrs. Li took out a handkerchief from her waist, the handkerchief was wrapped in something, Mrs. Li opened the handkerchief, and after a while, the things in the handkerchief were revealed, An Mingchen glanced at it and frowned slightly, "How can you have this thing?" ”

Although An Mingchen had never seen warm jade, he had seen it in the book, warm jade was priceless, very rare, ordinary people have such a small piece can be used as a family heirloom, but he didn't expect Mrs. Li to have such a big piece of warm jade. Could it be that this is the reason why Lord Liu insisted that the Li family be ruined?

But it's really mad to do such a thing for the sake of a piece of warm jade. An Mingchen didn't say a word, waiting for Mrs. Li to answer. Mrs. Li put away the things and handed them to An Mingchen, An Mingchen looked puzzled, "Are you going to give me the warm jade?" ”

"Lord An saved the lives of our family, the women really don't know how to repay you, although this piece of warm jade is the heirloom of the Li family, but our Li family also broke the family because of this thing, so the women will give this piece of warm jade to the adults now, which should be regarded as repaying the adult's life-saving grace."

"No, this thing is too valuable, it was just a coincidence that I met you at the beginning, and it was my duty to help you later, you don't have to be so polite." An Mingchen didn't accept it, and Mrs. Li insisted, "My lord, you can do it, as long as this thing is in my hands for a day, that Lord Liu will not let me go." ”

"Is it really because of this piece of warm jade that Lord Liu attacked the Li family?" At first, An Mingchen was just guessing, but now he is still a little angry when he hears Mrs. Li say it.

Mrs. Li nodded a little apologetically, "At first, it wasn't that the woman didn't want to say it, but she just ......" She was worried that An Mingchen was also the same as Lord Liu's dog official, with bad intentions, but after this period of getting along, now he can be sure that he is different from that dog official, and she really wants to help them. In addition, Mrs. Li also knew that their current situation could not protect Nuan Yu at all, and might even cause death, so in this way, it was better to give this thing to someone with a good heart, and it should be regarded as a good fate for the Li family.

An Mingchen glanced at Mrs. Li and immediately understood the meaning of his words, helped him stand up, and asked Dabao to pull his sister up, "Mrs. Li, let's go in and talk." Although he was ready when he decided to let Mrs. Li's mother and son come back, he still wanted to buy himself more time.

On the other side, Lord Liu also got the news, Lord Liu didn't expect An Mingchen to be so ignorant, he had already persuaded him with good words, but he didn't expect that not only did he not listen, but also brought the mother and son back, so don't blame him for being polite.

"Go, find the master, and find all the officials of the yamen, and the official will go out." Lord Liu went back to the house and put on the official mansion, and when he came out, the master had already arrived.

"My lord, what are you ......&" want to be promoted? But he didn't hear anyone report to the official just now. Master Liu glanced at him and snorted coldly, "Useless thing, I asked you to send someone to find the news of those three people in the past few days, what have you been looking for?" ”

"I ...... My lord, it's not that my subordinates don't want to find it, but my subordinates have thought of all the ways they can think of, and there have been no clues, and my subordinates can't do anything. ”

"The bullshit is powerless, the official sees that you just haven't looked for it well." Master Liu knew that Master had always been tactful, and he never did thankless things, even if he couldn't dodge, he could push and push, he could turn a blind eye before, but today, he always felt that An Mingchen suddenly took Mrs. Li back and was so blatant, and when he was in a bad mood, he began to look at anything unpleasant.

"The three scourges of the Li family have all returned, and they are now in the post house, you follow the official to arrest them now." After speaking, Master Liu walked out of the room directly. The master's face changed suddenly, "My lord, I'm afraid this is inappropriate." Lord An has been grasping you for the trick, and you are not in the past now. And the three people of the Li family have been in the news for so long, and the sudden appearance made the adults get the news, don't the adults feel strange? ”

"Strange what? The official thinks you're very strange, looking at your sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, do you wish the official was unlucky sooner? Master, I warn you, if you don't have a good life, don't think about living a good life. Lord Liu glared at him and strode on.

"Wronged, my lord, how can my subordinates want to harm my lord, even if my subordinates are stupid, they know that we are together, you are not good, where can your subordinates have a good life." Master chased after Master Liu with a crying face, "But my lord, it's really not an impulsive thing now, in case this is a trap, let's just break into it like this, and it's too late to regret it then." ”

"Even if it's a trap, the officer admits it today." He really had enough of the days when he couldn't sleep and eat during this time. This is Jiangnan, it's her territory, and she doesn't believe that she can't fight a Qincha who has nothing.

While speaking, the group arrived at the door of the post house, and the guards immediately went in to tell when they saw Lord Liu coming.

"Lord An has an order, if Lord Liu comes, he will go in alone, and everyone else will wait at the door."

Lord Liu didn't expect An Mingchen to even count this. I became more and more uneasy. The master stepped forward to persuade him, "My lord, otherwise let's go back first, stay in Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood, besides, if you really want to do something, we have a way, why bother to fight with Lord An?" ”

Who is Lord An, haven't you understood it all this time? That's not a good stubble, and today plus people are still prepared, if Lord Liu really goes in, I'm afraid it will be more auspicious.

The master was persuading, but Lord Liu pushed him away and walked in directly. The master had no choice but to hurry up, who knew that he was stopped by the guards after walking a few steps, "Your Excellency has an order, only let Lord Liu go in alone, and the others must wait at the door." ”

"I'm the prefect's master, and I have to follow the adults in." The master was not worried that Lord Liu wanted to go in with him, but those guards refused to let him go, and Lord Liu was impatient and simply went in by himself. Seeing this, the master sighed secretly.

An Mingchen sat in the front hall drinking tea, holding a book of words in his hand that he didn't know where to get, looking at it with relish, when he heard the voice of the guard outside, "My lord, Lord Liu has arrived." ”

"Invite him in." As soon as the words fell, Lord Liu walked in. An Mingchen heard footsteps and put down the book. "Why does Lord Liu have time to come here today?"

"Hmph, An Mingchen, where are you pretending to be a ghost, don't think that the official doesn't know what kind of medicine you sell in the gourd, let's say, what do you want to do by inviting the official here so much?"

An Mingchen looked at her and smiled, took the teacup and took a sip of tea, "My lord said that I laughed, this official has never invited anyone to invite an adult, why my lord came to the post house should know better than my lord." ”
