Tong Zhao struggled for three days and then made up his mind. But in the past few days, Xiao Jian has been with him all the time, and he can't get out. It was not until August 28 that I found an opportunity to go to Yingze Building.

Yingze Building is an old store, but it has been swallowed up by Qian Jingya last year. And Tong Zhao also has dry stocks here. Yingzelou saw that Tong Zhao had come quietly, so he hurriedly and politely invited people to the clean back hall, and trotted to inform Qian Jingya. At this time, Bai Qingfeng and Qian Jingya had already received news from Yingwei, and when they saw someone from Yingzelou, they followed them to see Tong Zhao.

Tong Zhao didn't recognize Bai Qingfeng, and waited for Bai Qingfeng to report to his home. Tong Zhao couldn't bluff, he didn't expect that the chief quartermaster of the dignified army would have the courage to enter Jinyang City alone under their noses. Bai Qingfeng's free conversation and laughter made the trembling Tong Zhao admire it even more.

Both hatchbacks were prepared, and the conversation went naturally and smoothly. But in half an hour, Tong Zhao not only confessed, but also listened to Bai Qingfeng what to do after connecting. Tong Zhao was afraid of arousing suspicion, so he didn't dare to stay for a long time, so he left after talking about things. At this time, Bai Qingfeng dared to go to sit next door.

Lan Jing'an, who was sipping fragrant tea next door, saw Bai Qingfeng coming over, and looked at him with a smile: "Big brother is a good method." Miss Qian's merit has been established. Now that Tong Zhao has been settled, you can take a break for a while these days and accompany Miss Qian. I plan to enter the house the day after tomorrow. ”

Bai Qingfeng's heart was comfortable, but when he heard Lan Jing'an say that he would enter the mansion the day after tomorrow, there was still some worry in his eyebrows: "Either let's ask someone out." Acting in this Yingze Building is better than being stable on other people's turf. ”

Lan Jing'an shook his head: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get a tiger?" Only on his turf did the shock to him be big enough. He relied on a momentum, and if he didn't smash his breath, he wouldn't accept it. You will wait for my letter with the shadow guard. ”

Bai Qingfeng knew that the third sister had been planning for a long time, so he naturally didn't want to back down here. He had to reply to her: "Okay, but you must be safe." I'm always waiting to pick you up. ”

The brother and sister talked for a while, and then took advantage of the night to leave separately.

On August 29, it was raining in the autumn, and outside the back door of Xiao Mansion in Jinyang City, a poor woman was trembling and pleading with the guards guarding the door: "You can do it, our master is really your wife's relative, you just need to hand this thing in." ”

The gatekeeper had been grinding with the servant girl for a long time, and his patience was exhausted, so he went out and pushed her: "Go, go, go." Who is our lady? It was from the Princess Mansion of the Elder of Yonghua City! Where did the rural village women dare to admit it. ”

The maid stubbornly refused to leave, and between tugging, she saw an eldest lady coming here with a few girls. The maidservant who was wet in the rain saw someone coming, knelt on the ground and cried and kowtowed to the eldest lady: "Auntie, please, talk to this guard brother." Our master is really a relative of the lady of the house, as long as he hands over the things, the lady will definitely recognize him. ”

As soon as Mother Xue heard the accent of this maidservant, she knew that she was from Yonghua City. She couldn't help but look a few more times, but realized that she didn't know the girl. But seeing that this maid had been drenched in the autumn rain, trembling in the cold rain, her heart was very unbearable. Let the maid take her to the porch first, and ask the guard who guards the door himself.

When the guard guarding the door said that this girl had been grinding here for almost half an hour, Mother Xue already had some faith in her heart. This Xiao Mansion is not an ordinary family, and the identity of the lady is even more precious, and there are a few people who dare to pretend to admit it. What's more, even if you pretend to admit it, there is no need to pick such a cool autumn rainy day. If you don't succeed in stealing chickens, you may even lose your life, how can anyone be so stupid?

Mother Xue returned to the porch, and asked the two maids who followed her to find a sheltered room with the wet girl first, and she turned back to the backyard with the so-called tokens.

In the backyard, Xue Huaizhen was in a daze in front of the autumn rain, and was a little surprised when she saw Xue's mother going and returning: "Why did Mom come back so quickly today?" ”

Xue's mother was Xue Huaizhen's nurse, and she loved Xue Huaizhen the most, and when she saw her sitting by the window, she hurriedly persuaded her: "Oh, my good lady, this autumn wind and autumn rain are very cold, you better don't sit by the window." Hongsha, why don't you help Mrs. over? ”

Xue Huaizhen also felt a little cold at this time, so she moved her position with her red gauze hand. At this time, Xue's mother learned from Xue Huaizhen what she had just seen at the back door. Xue Huaizhen stretched out her hand to take the token wrapped in a towel in Xue's mother's hand, and was a little surprised: "This is strange, if someone from Yonghua City comes from there, just hand over the post directly, why send a maid to the back door alone." ”

Xue Huaizhen opened the token as she spoke, and a pearl hairpin with a simple appearance but a lot of money at a glance was lying in the center of the scarf. Xue Huaizhen saw the token, got up from the couch suddenly, and asked urgently: "What about people?" ”

When Mother Xue saw that the master recognized the pearl hairpin, she knew that what the maid said was true, so she hurriedly turned back to the back door and brought the person over.

I saw that this maid saw Xue Huaizhen, knelt on the ground and cried, only saying that the master had a life, and she wanted to say a few words alone with Mrs. Xiao. Although Xue Huaizhen didn't know this maidservant, when she saw her enduring the wet and cold, kneeling on the ground, she already believed it in her heart.

Xue Huaizhen retreated left and right, leaving only the most trusted Mother Xue. Only then did he start asking, "What's your name?" I've never seen you. ”

The kneeling maidservant, her hair was still dripping with water, probably due to the cold, her voice trembled a little: "The maid is named Cuizhu." Because Sister Cuiyu was sick, she was sent to Liangzhou from Xue Mansion in February last year. ”

Xue Huaizhen left Yonghua City after the New Year last year, and he really didn't know that there was such a stubble. When she returned to Yonghua City, she usually only lived in the eldest princess's mansion where her parents were located, but she was not so familiar with the Xue family. However, since I heard that this maid knew Cui Yu's name, I thought that it should be the person next to my cousin.

Xue Huaizhen asked again: "Isn't your master there in the Qianjun?" How did you get here? ”

When the maidservant heard this question, her words were full of tears: "Master, she heard that the great secretary ordered General Xiao to attack Jinyang, and she was afraid of hurting the son, so she went to ask the chief secretary for her life." As a result, he angered the great priest and wanted to be sent back to Puyang. The master escaped with the help of two of Xiao Gongzi's previous subordinates. I exchanged all the money on my body for Jinyang City, and I want to see you. ”

Xue Huaizhen's heart was sour, and she asked again: "What about her?" I'll send someone to take her into the house now. ”

The maidservant named Cuizhu glanced at Xue Huaizhen timidly: "The master is afraid, afraid, afraid..."

Xue Huaizhen sighed heavily. There was something she didn't understand. Xiao Bei is still detained here, if Ayu is allowed to come in, these two couples don't want to go out again. And if the word of Ayu fleeing into Jinyang City is spread, she is afraid that it will be difficult for her to deal with herself in the future. She can't interfere in the man's fight, but Ayu is not only her nephew, but also her cousin who grew up together, how can she put her in danger.

Xue Huaizhen thought about this, and her words softened a lot: "You don't have to be afraid, go down to dry your body first, change your clothes, don't freeze." I'll go see her in person in a moment. Where does she live now? ”

Cuizhu was a little hesitant and looked directly at Mother Xue. Xue Huaizhen understood and waved his hand: "This Mother Xue is the person I trust the most, you don't have to worry." Let's be honest. ”

Cuizhu whispered a place: "Yingze Building." ”
