Xiping Street, the entrance of the Assassin's Mansion.

There was a carriage parked, a horse.

The door was opened, and Lord Assassin Shi personally sent the second brother out of the house.

Shen Ji reluctantly walked to the side of the carriage, turned to Lord Thorn Shi and asked, "Big brother, do you have to go back today?" ”

Shen Ye stood on the edge of the steps at the door, his face was indifferent, "The second brother has not returned for a long time, I am afraid that my father will punish him." ”

Shen Ji had no choice but to say: "If my father agrees to the younger brother to come to Meizhou to live temporarily next time, the eldest brother can't drive me away1."

Shen Ye glanced at him and replied, "The second brother is responsible for his own expenses, so I won't drive you." ”

Shen Ji was depressed when he heard this, "Big brother, I only spent a thousand taels of silver on you, why are you so stubborn."

Lord Thorn Shi felt pain when he thought of the 1,000 taels of silver, and when he saw that the second brother didn't care, he said in a deep voice: "You have always been extravagant in Xingyuan Mansion, and 1,000 taels of silver is just a piece of cake. But it seems to me that a thousand taels of silver are not easy to come by, and every tael must be spent on the edge of a knife......"

"Big brother, little brother knows. Next time, you must pay for your own expenses, and Guan Bao will no longer cost Lord Shi a tael of silver.1 Shen Ji really couldn't get used to seeing his eldest brother being stingy, so he couldn't help but interrupt loudly.

Shen Ye ignored the disdain on his face and instructed him, "Shen Yun will always escort you back to Xingyuan Mansion." Don't make many stops along the way, try to hurry up and get there before the gates close. ”

"The younger brother knows that he will not be delayed on the road, the eldest brother can rest assured." Shen Ji replied casually.

Lord Thorn Shi looked at Shen Yun and said, "Prepare to go." ”

Shen Yun replied, turned around and took a few steps forward, grabbed the reins, and neatly turned over and got on the horse.

Shen Ji took one last look at the Assassin's Mansion before turning around and preparing to get into the carriage, but he caught a glimpse of a shadow not far away, and hurriedly looked over-

Hey? Isn't that the woman who bid with her before?

She actually lives next door to the Thorn Mansion!

Why didn't I meet her when I was traveling before, but now I want to leave Meizhou but I meet her?

Shen Ye saw that the second brother turned his head and didn't move, so he looked in the direction, and it turned out that it was the woman who had left the mansion and was walking towards them.

——

In Xu's mansion, everyone still accompanied Su Zhe to watch the play, Xu Qinghe felt that it was not very interesting after listening to it for a while, so he took Xu Ya out of the mansion and prepared to go to Quanpinju for a visit.

As soon as he left the mansion, he saw Lord Thorn Shi standing at the door, talking to a man with a raw face.

She had planned to walk over without squinting, pretending not to see anything. But she had only taken a few steps closer when the man on the side of the carriage stared at her, and then Lord Thorn Shi also looked at her......

Xu Qinghe could only stubbornly step forward to say hello, bent down and saluted, "I've seen Lord Shen." ”

Shen Ye's eyebrows suddenly became smiling, and he said softly: "Miss Xu doesn't need to be polite. ”

Shen Ji watched Lord Thorn Shi's expression change from the side, and immediately remembered what he said before, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "Isn't the eldest brother different from the younger brother?" ”

Xu Qinghe glanced at him and felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

Shen Ye coughed lightly and said to the second brother, "This is Miss Xu of Xufu." ”

Then he looked at the woman and said warmly: "This is my second brother, send him back to Xingyuan Mansion today." ”

Hearing this, Xu Qinghe hurriedly bent down and saluted, "I've seen Shen Langjun." ”

Shen Ji also bowed and asked, "Didn't Miss Xu forget me?" At the beginning, in front of Liu Xiucai's painting stall, the person who bid with the young lady was below. ”

Xu Qinghe suddenly said, "No wonder it's so familiar, it turned out to be you." ”

Shen Ji smiled: "Miss Xu caused me to spend an extra sixty taels of silver, which is really fresh in my memory. ”

Xu Qinghe smiled and said with a little embarrassment: "I was reckless that day, and I ask Shen Langjun to forgive me." ”

"It doesn't matter. Miss Xu is purely kind-hearted, not to mention that I bought Brother Liu's paintings, which are also worth the money. Shen Ji replied.

Shen Ye listened silently to the two of them on the side, and only then did he say aloud, "Second brother should leave earlier."

When Shen Ji heard this, he said to Master Thorn Shi: "Big brother, do you need a few kind words from the younger brother in front of his father?" It's better to settle it soon-"

Settled? Xu Qinghe looked at the two suspiciously.

Shen Ye naturally understood the meaning of his words, glanced at the woman's confused expression, and bowed to Shen Ji: "There is second brother Lao 1."

Shen Ji was originally just a joke, but when he saw Lord Assassin Shi saluting so seriously, he couldn't help but glance at the woman, and then bowed back and said, "The younger brother must do his best to mediate for the eldest brother." ”

After speaking, as if shouldering a great mission, he turned around and got into the carriage neatly.

Shen Yun saw the second young master get into the car, arched his hand towards Lord Thorn Shi, and said to the little guy who was driving the car: "Departure 1."

The little guy hurriedly waved his whip and drove the carriage out of the gate of the Thorn Mansion.

Shen Yun rode a horse and followed.

When the figures and horses were far away, Xu Qinghe asked in a low voice: "What did you just say?" ”

Shen Ye hooked his lips and smiled, and replied, "I can't tell Qinghe for the time being." ”

Xu Qinghe had no choice but to suppress his curiosity when he heard this, and guessed in his heart that it might be a decision on official business......

"Where are Qinghe going?" Shen Ye saw that she was out of the house in the morning, so he asked.

Xu Qinghe heard the question and replied, "I'll go to Quanpinju to have a look." ”

"If you're not in a hurry, can Qinghe come with me into the house?" Shen Ye looked at the woman and asked with a smile, "I have something to give you." ”

Xu Qinghe hurriedly refused, "Lord Shen gave my mother a heavy gift yesterday, and I can't afford to pay it back, how can I accept your things again-"

Shen Ye smiled slightly and said, "Since it is given to you, it is to be received." No courtesy required. ”

Before Xu Qinghe could say anything, Lord Thorn Shi had already turned around and strode into the mansion.

She had no choice but to say to Xu Ya, who was waiting not far away: "Uncle Xu, you go back to watch the play first, and I'll go to the Assassin's Mansion." ”

Xu Ya responded and returned to Xu's mansion according to his words.

Xu Qinghe saw the figure of Master Shi disappearing behind the door, worried that the door would close, and hurriedly followed.

The porter saw Miss Xu enter the house, so he stepped forward and closed the door.

Shen Ye was walking in the courtyard, and when he heard the footsteps of the woman following behind him, he stood sideways and said to her, "You always like to be behind me." ”

Xu Qinghe heard the words and slandered, who let you go so fast. He replied, "I don't dare to walk side by side with adults." ”

Shen Ye leaned closer, took the woman's right hand, and Wen Yan asked, "Does Qinghe not dare, or does he not want to?" ”

Xu Qinghe was so frightened that he hurriedly looked around, but fortunately he didn't see the maid servant, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Let go!" What should I do if I am seen? ”

Shen Ye ignored the woman's words, took her hand, and led her to the study.

Xu Qinghe was led by the man and could only walk side by side with him.

"Qinghe doesn't need to be nervous, no matter what happens in the Assassin's Mansion, no one will spread it." Shen Ye soothed.

Xu Qinghe was terrified when he heard this, feeling that he had entered the wolf's den of Lord Shi.
