An Sheng followed behind Xia Yuanwai, and his heart was mixed. Thinking that this time may be the last time I and my father will meet, from then on, I am afraid that it will be separated by yin and yang, and my heart will be as painful as a knife, and my feet will be as heavy as lead.

The three of them walked over with heavy guards, worried, An Sheng felt as if there were thousands of pairs of eyes watching, and he was even more nervous and broke out in a cold sweat.

After entering a secret room, the man was relieved, turned around, and whispered: "Time is pressing, if you have something to say, I will stay at the door, and you will only have tea time at most." ”

Xia Yuanwai couldn't help but be stunned and felt surprised.

An Sheng raised his face and looked at Xia Yuanwai's haggard and slightly pale face, full of thousands of words, but they were all choked, and only shouted: "Dad!" ”

When Xia Yuanwai heard this call, his body was suddenly shocked: "Ansheng!" ”

The hands of the father and daughter were instantly clasped tightly together, and their eyes were teary-eyed.

"Why are you here?" Xia asked outside.

"Master is up and down, let the daughter come and see her father."

Xia Yuanwai burst into tears and choked up: "Good daughter, how are your mother and aunt and sister?" ”

Naturally, they are all good, too good.

An Sheng didn't want him to worry, so he just nodded and said, "Everything is fine at home, father don't worry." ”

Xia Yuanwai lowered his head in frustration: "Then my father will be a little more relieved." ”

An Sheng shook his head chaotically: "No, Daddy, my daughter will definitely find a way to rescue you, I definitely can't ignore it." ”

Xia Yuanwai shook his head, with a blank look on his face, and said solemnly: "Silly girl, it's useless." You must not care, do not meddle in this matter. ”

"Why?" An Sheng raised his head suddenly: "Father, do you have any grievances?" ”

"No, no." Xia Yuanwai shook his head: "My father left the guard without permission and caused such a big loss, which is deserved." Ansheng, don't worry about it, when the time comes, collect your father's body, and pay tribute to your father on the New Year's Day is all you should do as a daughter, don't do too much. ”

If Xia Yuanwai didn't accentuate this sentence, An Sheng might not be suspicious, and his repeated advice made An Sheng instantly feel more hearty: "Father, there must be something inside it, isn't it?" An Sheng has already been to Dongcheng and has also seen Yu Shizi, and they all said that this fire was deliberately set by someone, isn't it? ”

Xia Yuanwai was extremely frightened, and instantly held An Sheng's hand tightly like a frightened bird: "Nonsense, it's clearly Tianhuo!" Why are you so stubborn? If you don't listen to me, I will never recognize you as a daughter again!" ”

"Father!" An Sheng suddenly became anxious: "Do you think that it is good for us to resist all the guilt?" You can't save your family, right?

Do you know that now the people outside hear about the fire in the barn, and they hate you to the core, and they walk on the street, and the streets are full of scolding. Are you willing to die with this infamy? Let your wife, children, and mother suffer from other people's criticism and cynicism for the rest of their lives, and they will have a good life? What is the joy of life like this, and what is the fear of death? ”

Xia Yuanwai was stunned for a moment.

He thought about it for the past two days, thinking that he had figured it out, but he didn't expect An Sheng's words to make his firm heart begin to waver.

"It's okay to steal your life!" He let out a long sigh.

"No, my daughter will never bear to be humiliated and stealing! Even if you can't save your father, you can't bear such an eternal infamy! Father, there is only one chance, what is going on, you should tell your daughter! Time was running out, and An Sheng was so anxious that he almost cried.

"Even if I said it, my father still couldn't escape death! Why take your life? Ansheng, you go back. ”

There was a light cough outside the door, and the man who let the wind flashed in: "The people from Dali Temple and the Criminal Department are here, go quickly!" ”

An Sheng gritted his teeth and said categorically to Xia Yuanwai: "If you don't say it, I won't leave, and I will die with my father!" ”

Xia Yuanwai and the man were all anxious, and they paused again and again.

There were already footsteps outside the door.

Xia Yuanwai lowered his voice and whispered in An Sheng's ear: "The grain depot has long been empty, and the account books are in Aunt Rou's. ”

An Sheng was stunned for a moment!

Deficit?

Aunt Rou?

Footsteps stopped outside the door: "Can the prisoner be brought?" ”

"Qi Qi a few adults, the prisoner Xia Yunhai is here."

Someone outside the door waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Okay, let's all retreat." ”

As soon as the man dragged An Sheng, An Sheng came to his senses, held back his tears, lowered his head, and withdrew from the secret room.

As soon as he got out of the heavily surrounded place, the man breathed a sigh of relief, and complained to An Sheng: "You kid, Shicai is simply scared to death to death, if you don't want to die, aren't you afraid of dragging us down, and Leng Gongzi?" ”

An Sheng "poofed" and knelt down for the man: "Shicai is indeed An Sheng is too reckless, thank you for your kindness." ”

"I'm not an adult, I'm just entrusted by others, hurry up, if I am seen, it will not be good to be suspected."

An Sheng stood up and was full of gratitude.

Today's events may be really insignificant to this person, but they have ignited the seeds of hope in An Sheng's heart. Her father's words made her can't help but get excited, so she showed her true feelings for a while, and then knelt down and kowtowed to the man.

"Let's go, this place is not suitable for long." The man urged repeatedly.

An Sheng suppressed his emotions and followed the man out of Dali Temple along the same road. After breaking up, I went to the alley to find Leng Nanxian.

Leng Nanxian was waiting on the carriage, also worried, seeing An Sheng coming back in a hurry, safe and sound, his heart suddenly rejoiced, and he lifted the curtain: "How is it, have you seen it?" ”

An Sheng nodded, climbed into the carriage, and was excited for a moment, and grabbed Leng Nanxian's hand: "See, Master." ”

Her hands trembled slightly, visibly excited.

"How?"

An Sheng swallowed the excitement on the tip of his throat with difficulty: "Master, Shicai's father told me that the burned granary was actually empty a long time ago, which means that someone deliberately set fire to cover up the fact of corruption." Say, "Is my father saved?" ”

Leng Nanxian was also shocked in an instant: "Is this true? ”

An Sheng nodded categorically: "My father didn't want me to interfere at first, but then I asked in a hurry, and he was forced to say it." I think he should have known about it a long time ago. ”

"There's really something inside!" Leng Nanxian snorted coldly.

An Sheng said happily: "If the grain depot is empty, then my father's responsibility will be much smaller, is there any possibility of saving his life?" ”

Leng Nanxian couldn't say anything, lowered his head and muttered for a long time, before he raised his head and told An Sheng: "This matter, except for you and me, remember not to let the third person know." ”

"Why?"

"Your father has been arraigned twice before, the first time he confessed to the crime of desertion and other things. The second time, your father insisted that the fire in the granary was a heavenly fire. It can be seen that your father is also the one who set the fire behind the jealousy.

He is in the household department, and he knows the situation better than you and me. If speaking out about the deficit would easily excuse him from his sins, why didn't he say so? If you leak the news, I'm afraid you will be worried about your life. ”

An Sheng suddenly woke up: "My father has a deficit account book, which is in the hands of Aunt Rou. He must have been afraid of Aunt Rou's safety, so he didn't say anything. ”

"Books?" Leng Nanxian frowned.

"Yes, Master, my father told me the last time, because of the rush of time, I didn't have time to elaborate, I only said this sentence."

"This account book is very important, how can he get it into the hands of an aunt?"

"Aunt Rou has been favored recently, and my father thinks he trusts her."

Leng Nanxian suddenly lifted the curtain: "Uncle Leng , hurry, go to Xia Mansion quickly." ”

Leng Bo had already sat in front of the car and was waiting, and when he heard Leng Nanxian's order, he spurred his horse, and immediately drove out of the alley and headed straight towards Xia Mansion.

An Sheng is also worried, and he can't wait to have his wings.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Xia Mansion, and An Sheng and Leng Nanxian both jumped out of the carriage and rushed straight into the mansion.

In Aunt Rou's yard, it was quiet, and there was no palm lamp.

An Sheng rushed in, stood in the courtyard and shouted, "Aunt Rou? ”

No response.

An Sheng's heart suddenly had a bad premonition, and he rushed in three steps and two steps, but the room was empty, and there was no one in it.

"What's going on?" Leng Nanxian was also stunned.

An Sheng shook his head: "I don't know. ”

"Hopefully there won't be any complications." Leng Nanxian frowned.

An Sheng was also shocked, and hurriedly ran out of the yard and grabbed a passing girl: "Where is Aunt Rou?" ”

The little girl said casually: "It's gone." ”

"Gone? When? Where did it go? ”

"As soon as the master had an accident yesterday, Aunt Rou disappeared today." The little girl shook her head: "As for where I went, I don't know, you go and ask Mrs. and Uncle Xue, they may know." ”

It's Xue and Xue Zhao who are making trouble again!

An Sheng went straight to Xue's courtyard without thinking.

The Xue family was discussing things with Xia Zixian in a low voice, covering the door of the house and retreating from all the subordinates.

Ignoring the obstruction of his grandmother, An Sheng pushed open the door of the house, stepped into Xue's room, and asked straight to the point: "Mother, where is Aunt Rou?" ”

The Xue family suffered a big loss from Yu Jingyun yesterday, and when he saw An was angry, he didn't fight anywhere, and he couldn't survive again: "Your father has already gone away, and that slut can't get any benefit from staying in the house, so he naturally went away by himself." ”

"Did you drive her away?" An Sheng's words were full of anxiety.

Xue Shi glared at An Sheng and said, "So what? Isn't it? Is it your turn to question me like that? Do you think that with Yu Shizi's support for you, you can ignore the code of ethics? I'm still your mother! ”

Saving people is like fighting a fire, 100,000 urgent, An Sheng is not in the mood to talk to Xue Shi quickly: "Where did she go?" ”

Xue's yin and yang said strangely: "Where people want to go, that's their freedom, and I don't care." If you look for someone to ask me for, you won't look for me. ”

An Sheng was so anxious that he just wanted to step forward and grab Xue's collar, jam her neck fiercely, and vent the anger in his heart.
