Chapter 107: She Speaks for Him

The cold wind lingered in my ears, and the red sun had already spread the eaves. At this moment, smoke was rising from every house in the city, and people could be heard shouting for their own food and drink on the long street, and then there was the sound of children chasing and laughing.

Shen Xiao hurried back to Zhao's mansion, and across the middle street, he saw a soft-cured blue sedan chair, parked at the door.

He paused, and a faint uneasiness crossed his eyes. After thinking about it again, I have eagerly stepped into the threshold.

"Uncle Zhong, have you come to the house?" Shen Xiao walked from the door to the courtyard, met Steward Zhong, and stopped him.

Steward Zhong stretched out his hand and patted him on the back, and said with some reproach, "Why did you come back?" Miss had an accident at the dock today, no, it was the eldest prince and Mr. Ji who sent it back together. The eldest prince said that he was afraid that the young lady would be frightened, and he also instructed Su Jianniang in the back kitchen to boil some soothing soup. ”

Shen Xiao's eyebrows tightened when he heard this, and he hurriedly chased down and asked, "What's wrong?" "It must have happened after I left the shop. What a damn thing! How could it be so coincidental?

Steward Zhong spoke eloquently. said that Lu Yun somehow participated in the cheating of the autumn exam, and the leakage of the exam questions to the candidates was found out by the government, and in desperation, he hid in the Zhao family's shop, and took the young lady to the dock to help him leave the city by boat...... As a result, he was naturally intercepted by the government, and Lu Yun was also imprisoned.

While listening, Shen Xiao's face was not very good-looking. Not only did he sulk when he thought of Zhao Qingmiao's almost accident, but he was more concerned about how Lu Yun got the test questions based on this matter? Who is in the government to help the ghost who lacks money? It's crooked and famous.

His expression followed the voice and turned cold, he turned up the corridor with long legs, and hurriedly left a sentence: "Uncle Zhong, I'll go and see Miss." ”

Steward Zhong nodded, turned around and added, "Don't worry, there is someone in the house!" ”

However, Shen Xiao's figure was almost at the end of the corridor.

Zhao Qingmiao's house is a boudoir, and it is naturally furnished with things that ordinary ladies and small families will have. There is a copper furnace in the middle of the smoke with a faint straight line incense, I saw me lazily leaning on the side of the rattan heart bed with red sandalwood carved lotus pattern, holding his forehead and contemplating, and it was Chang Xi who was waiting closely.

Zhao Qingmiao's eyes were raised, and his gaze was cast outside through the Cuilan screen. Faintly you can see a mahogany round table and a few plum-style square stools. There were two people chatting and sipping tea.

"Mr. Ji, thank you for saving my sister, I am very grateful. If there is anything you can help in the city in the future, inform Zhao. ”

Zhao Yanjiu picked up his sleeves and arched his hands, showing his true feelings on his face.

"You're welcome, but it's just a coincidence. Seriously, Zhao Gongzi's white silver needles taste good, if you have to thank you, you can give me a can. Ji Yunli was also calm when he laughed.

The two of you came and went politely for a while, and then I heard a knock on the door, calm and eager.

"Miss, Shen Jiu is back." Shen Xiao's reason has long been abandoned, and nothing compares to the feeling of not being able to see Zhao Qingmiao safe and sound.

He didn't wait for anyone inside to answer, and pushed the door open and stepped in. Then, I was stunned.

"Shen Jiu? Where did you run this day! Zhao Yanjiu was the first to come back to his senses, and in view of today's events, he was a little dissatisfied with him.

Ji Yunli over there was still holding the teacup in his hand, and he glanced at him deeply, but he couldn't guess what he thought.

"Brother, don't blame him, he originally greeted me and went to do personal business." Zhao Qingmiao suddenly couldn't sit still, walked out of the room, and stared at Shen Xiao who was not far away through the beaded curtain.

The two bay eyebrows are painted in the distant mountains, and a pair of eyes are moist in autumn. Zhao Qingmiao looked at the past, and stopped at the point.

But Shen Xiao had an epiphany. She is, speaking for herself!
