CHAPTER XXII

When the full moon was in the sky, there was a dark shadow mixed into the post house of the general of the West City.

The candle flame in the room was suddenly extinguished, and the black shadow slowly approached with a short knife in his hand.

In the darkness, when the short knife was about to touch the neck of the sleeping man, the candle in the room suddenly lit, and Wan Zhen, who should have been in bed, stood at the door of the room.

The sleeping man was also awakened, and quickly got up from putting it on, picked up the saber beside the bed and pointed it at the assassin.

It's just that when Liu Yun saw the person clearly, his guard dispersed, and he changed to a helpless expression.

"I said, Boy Yu, you can come here, why do you have to do such a strange thing every time?"

"Strange what? I'm just going to see if you're protecting the general, what's wrong? ”

At this time, the room was bright, and the black clothes holding a short knife were the fish streams that were still in the Mei family's mansion before.

"What? What's the catch of coming back so soon? Wan Yi was wearing a shirt at this time, and he had a long shirt outside, and he didn't tidy up his body, so he walked slowly into the room, sat down at the desk, and poured himself a cup of night tea by the way.

"If you want to talk about the harvest...... I think that Tao Li girl is very happy, why don't you help me go to Namei Mansion tomorrow to talk about a matchmaker, how about it? ”

Wan Yi put down the teacup and chuckled, "You know that Miss Tao is Mei Junxing's fiancée, and you still want me to talk about the matchmaker?" ”

"I think you know that there is no treasure in that Mei Mansion at all, and deliberately asked me to go for nothing!" Yujian swam snatched the teacup, "I searched the Mei family's mansion twice with Jade, and we were three feet away from digging into the ground, except for those fakes I saw before." ”

Yujian moved his shoulders as he spoke, this time he suffered too much, if he didn't understand Wan Yi's character, he really thought he was deliberately manipulating him.

“…… Is it fake news again? Wan Yi leaned back at the desk and sighed, about the treasure of the fourteen kings, he has been tracking down for two years, during which he has been secretly acting by the hand of Yujian You, he thought that he would get a more credible news but it was empty, he was inevitably a little discouraged, this is a treasure.

He didn't want to look for it for the rest of his life.

"In this way, you rest first today, and the day after tomorrow, I will go to Mei's house with you again, and take a team of people to dig three feet into the ground together, in short, make sure that you are not leaving this place."

Yu Jianyou yawned, "Whatever you want, it's nothing more than to accompany you to go there, and you arrange your own subordinates to do the work, and I won't do it, master." ”

After Yujian finished speaking, he left the house, he was really tired, and he casually found a room in the post house and fell asleep.

Liu Yun looked at the general standing in the room, with a calm face, this fish stream swim is so rude every time, as his deputy, the adult didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to talk much, but he was still a little angry.

"My lord, the day after tomorrow, my subordinates will definitely do their best to search Namei Mansion well!"

Wan Yi nodded, he rubbed his eyebrows, and left the house, now it was late at night, and he was woken up by Yujian You, and he learned a news that made him not very pleasant, and it seemed that he would not fall asleep so easily in the second half of the night.

Compared with participating in the worry of the Mei Mansion, on the other side of the Mei family's mansion far away in the river, Mei Junxing and Tao Li slept peacefully this night.

On the second day, both of them were refreshed.

"The fish stream is gone." Tao Li washed and played, sat at the dinner table and asked Mei Junxing.

"I left last night."

"He's got the baby?" Sure enough, Tao Li was still interested in gold and silver treasures.

Mei Junxing served the porridge to Tao Li, put it on the table and glanced at Tao Li helplessly, "That's the legendary treasure of the Fourteen Kings, whoever gets it will be rich and rival the country, he will find it, we can sleep peacefully for one night?" ”

Tao Li nodded, in her opinion, this kind of thing is like a gossip, it has nothing to do with herself, it sounds very cool, but she didn't expect that there really isn't, she still has a little subtle disappointment, if there are so many treasures, if she finds it, she and Mei Junxing can also eat and drink spicy food after hiding casually.

Mei Junxing doesn't have to go to the Qingguan today, yesterday the family didn't know what it looked like by the fish stream, and he still wanted to tidy it up.

After eating breakfast and cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Mei Junxing walked to the backyard, and Tao Li also followed.

"I'm going to clean up, and you're going too?"

This Tao Li is lazy, she can hide when she does work, Mei Junxing deliberately said so, thinking that Tao Li would go back to play with herself.

"No, I'm a little scared alone, who knows if someone will suddenly rush into our yard to dig up some treasure?"

Tao Li's worries are not unreasonable, this confuses the rumors of the Yue official residence in front of Sichuan, although it is not boiling, but there are many people who know it, maybe there will be thousands of people around them secretly guarding, but in case someone rushes in, it is inevitable that Tao Li will be injured, Mei Junxing thought about it and gave her the small hoe that he had made for Tao Li before.

"Come with me, and if you see a hole on the road, help me bury it together."

Tao Li nodded and followed obediently.

At this time, the Tao family's compound was also opened, and today Master Tao said that he would go to Fuchuan to see how the unlucky son-in-law was doing. Early in the morning, the butler prepared the carriage, and just after eating, Tao Chongshu got into the carriage and left in a hurry.

The eldest lady stood at the door of the Tao Mansion, watching the carriage in the house slowly go away, although she was a woman in the back house, it didn't mean that she didn't know anything, now the lord was in such a hurry, I was afraid that he knew something about the Mei family.

Like that rumored treasure or something.

Thinking like this, the eldest lady shook her head, if there really is, then how could the Mei family die and only Mei Junxing was left?

Hoppe next to him carefully supported the eldest lady.

"Isn't there any news from the third lady during this time?"

"Mrs. Hui, not yet, now that this matter has been informed to the government, there are also people from the county who are sending people to look for it."

"They're looking for someone?" The eldest lady sneered, "That's it, this is the life of the third child, I went to the Buddhist hall these days, and I was reciting Buddhist scriptures for her." ”

The eldest lady said, with a very sincere and compassionate expression on her face, as if she had the world in her heart.

The second lady who was still in the Tao family at this time No, now that she is married, Tao Fuxian, who should be called Mrs., walked out of the courtyard, glanced lazily at the eldest lady, and then walked to the side courtyard to find Tao Chen.

Hope saw that Tao Fuxian was so unreasonable, and was about to step forward, but the eldest lady reached out to stop it, and slowly shook her head at Hope.

"Madame......" Hoppe hugged her master, "you are too indulgent to her." ”

The eldest lady smiled and said nothing, still looking like a clear breeze and a bright moon, and walked slowly to the ancestral hall.
