He Xinmu still didn't give up, asked people all the way, and searched the city gate.

The gates were closed, and there were many people standing in them, clamoring to get out.

The officers and men were trying to figure out how to disperse the crowd, and they were busy.

He Xinmu squeezed in and got closer to observe the situation.

There were many people guarding the city gates, not to mention the few who stopped the people, but there were two people guarding the city gates.

Create chaos and then take the opportunity to escape?

I'm afraid not, not only is the city gate locked, but there are two people guarding it, even if she has crooked thoughts, it is impossible to knock down these people and get out of the city smoothly.

He Xinmu had no choice but to return the same way and returned to He Mansion again.

******

The backyard of Hefu.

The quarrel between the two sisters has reached Zhou's here, Zhou's is not in the mood to care about this, today was supposed to go to the Zhizhou Mansion to attend the banquet, but someone came to inform the rescheduling, the old man said that he knew, and he left the house again.

Somehow, Zhou always had a bad feeling in his heart.

That night, I finally made an appointment with Mrs. Jiangsan, but before I could talk about business, I was interrupted and left temporarily.

Originally, she was going to invite her to participate in the ceremony of accepting He Xinmu as a concubine, but she could only talk about it later when she had the opportunity.

Then the banquet was cancelled.

Apparently something big had happened, and the lord was trying his best to hide it from her.

In the past two days, the door of the house has been closed, and the servants are not allowed to enter or leave, and the son has a strange look, and he has always avoided her for the past few days.

What the hell is going on.

He Shuyun was also uneasy, looking out the window from time to time.

Seeing that Xiao Luo had gone to call several times, there was still no movement in the house.

Will the third sister be able to come back smoothly?

Something must not happen.

He Xinmu returned to He Mansion.

But instead of going to the backyard, she spied on the front office.

It's already afternoon, and if you miss today, I'm afraid you won't be able to have this kind of opportunity in the future.

When the events in their mouths come to an end and the city gate is officially opened, I am afraid it will be the time for Xue Mu to leave.

She couldn't wait.

But what exactly does the Black River League want to do?

Liwei, because too many people do not obey the new lord's superiority, so kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, so that the entire territory south of the Yangtze River knows that the authority of the Heijiang League is unshakable.

He Xinmu guessed.

Most of the manpower of the government was sent out to conduct searches or inspections in the city, and He Xinmu didn't have much effort to touch the study where He Bing worked, and there happened to be no one at the door.

He Xinmu knew that a place like the study would be guarded all day long. I wonder in my heart, He Bing is not like such an imprudent person.

But it's a rare opportunity.

I made sure from the window that there was no one inside, so I jumped in.

The paperwork was piled up and somewhat scattered.

He Xinmu began to rummage.

Her purpose is the prefect's seal, as long as there is a seal, there is a way to bluff people and intimidate them into letting her out.

By the time they came to their senses, or knew that they had been deceived, she would have run away so that they wouldn't be easily found.

I rummaged through the cabinets, but I couldn't find anything.

Isn't it here?

But apart from here, He Xinmu couldn't imagine where it would be placed.

It seems that she is going to fall short, and she can only go back to the backyard if she is unwilling.

Look for opportunities later.

Put the mess back in place and was about to leave.

But I heard footsteps outside.

He Xinmu secretly screamed that it was broken!

Walking to the window, I saw He Bing and another person walking towards this side, and now when I go out, I will undoubtedly be discovered.

His eyes swept over the study, looking for a place to hide.

The bookshelves stand against the wall, so they can't be hidden.

Afterglow saw a cabinet in the corner, which seemed to barely fit one person, and rushed straight to the edge of the cabinet, opening it to hide in it, to be carried by someone.

The man said, "Come up with me." ”

Carrying her, he jumped onto the beam.

Standing firmly on the beams of the house, doubts rose in He Xinmu's heart.

Why is Xue Mu here?

It seems that she came before her, but she has not shown up for so long after watching it.

I want to ask clearly,

The voice outside the door was closer, so I had to suppress it.

Xue Mucai ignored her and stared down quietly.

At this moment, the footsteps reached the door.

He Bing said: "Where did this Fulin go?" ”

Immediately after that, the door of the study opened, and the two people on the beam saw He Bing and another person dressed as a subordinate walk in.

He Bing was very polite and said, "Please wait for a while." ”

The man said, "Don't dare, Lord He is willing to understand my family, and it's too late to be grateful." ”

He Bing invited the man to take a seat, walked to the bookcase, spread out a piece of paper, wrote a few words in ink by himself, and then took out a tightly wrapped thing from his sleeve.

He Xinmu's eyes lit up when he saw that thing, and he didn't notice that a fine light also flashed in Xue Mu's eyes.

He Bing didn't know that the heavy things in his hands had already been remembered by someone. ‘

Untie the brocade cloth, and there is indeed a big seal inside.

Stamp the paper, rewrap it and tuck it back into your sleeve.

He Xinmu could only watch him put it away, knowing that there was no drama today.

Next, I had to think about how to explain to Xue Mu what happened to her here.

He Bing sent the guests away, reprimanded Fu Lin, who had come late, and left with his sleeves up.

Xue Mu jumped down with her and carefully looked at her current appearance.

Dressed as a civilian, with a layer of dust on his face, he looked a little dark, but he looked refreshed.

Compared with the previous beautiful appearance, Xue Mu suddenly felt that the current appearance was more suitable for her.

When she first came in, Xue Mu really didn't see who it was, but felt a little familiar.

After a closer look, I realized that it was He Xinmu.

Seeing her rummaging around, she guessed that it was probably the same thing he wanted.

I was going to observe for a while, but He Bing came back unexpectedly at this time.

Seeing that she was in a hurry and didn't know where to hide, Xue Mu had no choice but to help her.

What the hell is this girl doing?

Xue Mu asked, "You want to sneak away again?" ”

He Xinmu shook off his hand and replied coldly: "How could I not notice such a big movement, no one can ask, and I can't find you, so I have to investigate by myself." ”

Xue Mu snorted coldly and said, "Wouldn't it be safer to come that night, looking at your appearance, have you already gone around the city." ”

A word to pierce it.

He Xinmu didn't feel embarrassed, and whispered: "Don't talk about this, Fulin is guarding the door, how can you get out?" ”

"Don't worry, he'll be there later."

After a while, sure enough, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside fading away......

How did he know.

He Xinmu asked with his eyes.

Xue Mu made sure that there was no one outside anymore and jumped out of the window, followed by He Xinmu.

Xue Mu didn't give her a chance to leave, and directly carried her to a corner.

"I don't know what method you used to get out, but as long as I'm in Jiangyin for a day, don't think about leaving. Even if you leave this mansion and this city, you are still on our territory. No one can escape from our targeting. ”

He Xinmu gritted his teeth.

"You snuck into my father's study, and I haven't asked you what your intentions are."
