No matter how shrewd the housekeeper was, he was stunned for a while, and he didn't react for a long time, and the old eyes looked at the eldest lady with a little confusion, he didn't hear it wrong, right? Thorn strip dagger, Xie Fu? And quietly throw it at the gate!

What's to be done? The third lady is unhappy when she returns to the door this time, and she won't be embarrassed to thank the Xie family, right?

Liu Yi didn't understand, so he glanced at the eldest lady, but saw that she looked as usual.

"What is the pestle doing here? Do it today. ”

Ordered, the steward of the house could only bow down to receive the order, and hurriedly went to the back mountain to cut five or six thorns, according to what the eldest lady said, the thorns were very sharp and grew very well.

After that, he took the red cloth bag again, took a dagger, and when night fell, he sent the neat servants to quickly throw them outside the gate of Xie's mansion.

The sun sets, the sunset rises, reflecting the sky, everyone's faces are red, and their eyes are also full of joy.

The glow is backward, the bright moonlight spreads all over the ground, it is very bright, the two red lanterns on the left and right of the gate of Xie Mansion, and the stone lion on the side is majestic.

In the silence of the night, the evening breeze slowly blew, and there was a crisp snap ——,, and then the figure flickered by, and a carriage drove in front.

"My lord, it seems that someone is sneaking around at the gate of the mansion."

Xie Rin was dressed in a black robe, the bottom edge was still inlaid with golden leaf lines, and his steps were steady when he walked, and when he saw something on the ground in front of the door, his black pupils were instantly deep, just because he saw the dagger.

Suddenly, the corners of his thin lips hooked, he smiled, laughing carelessly, under the moonlight, his slender white hand stretched out, and soon picked up the red cloth.

This is the gift she gave, she chose a red and bright cloth one night, what is the bread in it?

The guard next to him saw that instead of tracking down the figure that had left in a hurry just now, he admired the things, and he couldn't help but wonder, what was inside?

But as soon as he looked over, he happened to meet the eyes of adults, and the dangerous light flashed, and his heart immediately closed his gaze with a beat.

Xie Rin flipped over the red cloth, and the fabric was cut open——, and something like a thorn pierced his hand, and a few drops of blood came out in an instant, which was not in the way.

At this moment, the red cloth was not completely lifted, looking down at the bright red blood on his fingertips, he was not only angry, but even more curious, what was inside?

Could it be that the murder weapon was given to him as a gift, not to seek revenge?

The eyebrows and eyes were opened, the fingers flipped and moved, and several thick thorn strips came into view.

Completely unexpected, he said a lot of things he didn't like, I thought she bothered to send something else, but he didn't expect it to be thorns, ordinary plants that grow in the wild.

In ancient times, there were thorns who were guilty of pleading, and there were also thorns whipped to warn, and Qin Yunshu's trick was naturally not the previous one, that is, to warn him.

He could threaten her, and so could she. When did she become bolder, she couldn't dodge and avoid killing her before.

Now, knowing that he accepted the idea of killing her, he turned to act boldly.

Xie Rin chuckled, and then took a bag of red cloth and a dagger into Xie's mansion.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, a secret guard flashed in, bowed down and said, "My lord, Xiao Dutong quietly entered Beijing, and today he suddenly left Beijing and did not return to the barracks. The four princes were even more unresponsive, as if they were nothing. ”

The corners of Xie Rin's lips returned to their normal color, and he stood with the thorn strip in his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his fingers pierced by the thorns ached faintly.

"My lord, do you want to find out where Xiao Dutong went?"

A deep man's voice sounded, "No need, he came back from the mine and left suddenly a few days after he was in Beijing." ”

At this point, he suddenly stopped, and the guard on the other side came and bowed down to hand out a letter.

When he opened the letterhead, he was not surprised at all by who the person wrote the letter was and what it was written. The former head of the cabinet, the person who single-handedly pushed him to his current status, in the eyes of outsiders, that person is his mentor, his Bole.

But what was going on, only he knew in his heart. Every time something happens, why didn't he clean up the mess? What's more, if it weren't for him to turn the tide, it wouldn't be him who sat in the position of first assistant.

The teacher has long had a favorite candidate, and he is just used as a shield to clean up dissidents in the court.

He didn't expect that Xiao Jinyan was so quick and had already inspected the key to the matter, and he was the only one who didn't know anything about the past, how could he be so fast?

Who is helping him, Xie Rin thought for a moment, and finally locked on to someone.

"Secret investigation, whether An Yu is still alive, send someone to secretly inspect the An family's old house."

The old mansion was sealed, and it was already dilapidated when it was empty, and it was in ruins over the years. But if An Yan is alive, he will definitely go to the place where he was born and raised.

And the place where Xiao Jinyan went, happened to pass there, homesick, will he not go? Even if you look at it.

"Yes, sir."

Xie Rin bowed slightly, "Tell the little boy to come back when the matter is done." ”

After all, I just got married, and I have to come back, and the queen is still staring.

When the words fell, the person had already entered the study, and the letter paper was burned to ashes under the red tongue.

When he turned around, he was accidentally cut by the thorn strip again. In just a moment, it was cut twice in succession.

Looking at the thick thorns, Xie Rin lightly opened his thin lips, and his voice was low, "You gave me a good gift." ”

Always reminds him that he can't be comfortable, and many things can't help but hurt people at all.

This gift is ingenious, and it seems to be just right, although it is not ordinarily bold.

However, Qin Yunshu was not what Xie Rin thought, she just couldn't think of what to give, in case he happened to meet her again, he put down a threatening word from time to time, and simply gave him something casually and gaged him.

He said a lot of things he didn't like, as long as she didn't send those, and it couldn't be valuables, there was just a small thorn bush in the back mountain of Qinfu, and no one usually took care of it, and it was also lush at this time.

But she didn't know that Xie Rin had put it in the study, placed on the top of the bookshelf, under a landscape painting, and she would see it every time she picked up a book.

"Miss, you ordered the steward to send thorn strips and daggers over, is it a wake-up call for the third miss. Next time, make irresponsible remarks, kill her mouth, and slap her directly? ”

Looking at Liu Yi's smirk and expectation, she simply said, "You, you know my thoughts." ”

If this is the case, the slave and maid will be relieved. The third miss used to be a coward, but now it's different from before, when she saw the second miss, she slapped her directly without saying a word. How can you look like a sister? ”

Liu Yi snorted heavily, and then got up, "Miss, but you're going to sleep?" The slave and maid bring you washing water. ”

Qin Yunshu lightly, after Liu Yi retreated, there was silence in the hall.

Presumably, Xiao Jinyan has already left the capital, I don't know where I went, and I don't know when I will come back.

I hope he is well.

Thinking of this, she looked into the courtyard, where the moonlight was shining brightly, and the dark night was clear, only the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.

However, at this time, Xiao Jinyan, who was hundreds of miles away, also looked up at the crescent moon in the night sky, and slept in the wild today. I want to talk about "Hou Fu Pet" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
