Baili Jiu frowned invisibly, patted her back, and then quietly pushed her away, pointing to the chair next to him: "Sit down and talk, crying, as if the master has given you a great grievance." ”

An Ruoxi wiped the tears from her face and sat down embarrassedly, like rain hitting pear blossoms, which was particularly pitiful.

Baili Jiu struck while the iron was hot and asked, "How did you provoke him?" ”

An Ruoxi worked hard to stabilize her emotions, and finally made up her mind to tell the truth.

"In my spare time that day, I wanted to go to the street to pick out a few satisfactory satin and silk threads, and embroider a pair of pumps for the ninth master. Halfway through, Liu's mother said that there was a pair of satin fabrics that had been paid for but had been forgotten in the cloth village, so she turned around and went back to get it, and I sat alone on the roadside tea stall to rest and drink tea.

Later, I saw that the Elder Yu you mentioned hurried into an alley opposite. I only knew that he knew Mrs. Lin and had some ill intentions against Mrs. Lin, but I didn't know that he was a member of the Killer Pavilion, and I didn't care about it at the time. As a result, Guan Luo came over sneakily, looked left and right vigilantly, and turned into a flash.

That Guan Luo often walks around the mansion, so I have met him, and I know that he is a friend you have made from Eagle City. I became suspicious in my heart, wondering why he was there, and obviously meeting with the Elder Rain. So he got up and threw down the silver taels, and he didn't care about taking the things, so he followed him into the alley.

There was only one house in the alley, and the door was closed, so I relied on my own ability to escape, so I quietly lay down at the crack of the door and looked in. Elder Yu and Guan Luo stood in the courtyard and talked. I knew that Elder Yu was very strong in kung fu, so I didn't dare to make any more moves, so I just stayed away from the door, holding my breath and listening to what they were saying.

At that time, the two of them spoke very lowly, so what they were discussing, in fact, I didn't hear it clearly, but I could vaguely feel that Elder Yu was quite in awe of Guan Luo's form when he spoke, nodding his head and bowing, unprecedentedly deferential. I can guess that their relationship must be extraordinary, so Guan Luo deliberately approached you and infiltrated the General's Mansion, there must be a plan.

I didn't dare to stay long, and when I was about to quit the alley, the owner of the tea stall saw what I had left on the tea stall, and asked other tea customers where I was, and went straight to find it, but the two of them were alarmed by a voice.

That Guan Luo is very good, it's like a ghost, out of the blue, I didn't have the strength to fight back at all, I was hit on the ground with one palm, I couldn't move at all, and then Guan Luo couldn't help but kill me.

It is also my life that should not be extinguished, thanks to Liu's mother rushed over at a critical moment, for the sake of the deep love of the master and servant, desperately shot, desperately protected me, and let me escape to the street.

Elder Yu knew my identity and used this to blackmail Mother Liu, if we dare to make a public announcement, we will inevitably take the lives of my whole family.

For the rest of our lives after the catastrophe, we returned to the General's Mansion, thinking about it left and right, and the more we thought about it, the more scared we became, especially Guan Luo had wandered through the door of the Ukiyo Pavilion twice, intentionally or unintentionally, and he was terrified. I didn't dare to expose him, and I was afraid that they would secretly poison you, so Ruo Xi dared to pretend to be a ghost and live in Yinian Hall, I was really worried about your safety, and I didn't mean anything else. ”

After An Ruoxi finished speaking, she couldn't help but fall like rain, crying so much that I felt pity, Bailijiu knew that some of her words were lying and contradicting herself. At the very least, she took the initiative to filter out the role of the three princes in the whole conspiracy. After all, if it weren't for the fact that she was the person of the Third Prince, Guan Luo and Elder Yu would definitely not have had a chance to let her escape.

Now it's not the time to expose the third prince in front of her, she doesn't confess, and Bailijiu can only pretend to be deaf and dumb, as if she doesn't know at all, and no longer investigates the bottom line.

"Where was the alley where the two of them met at that time? Can you take me there? ”

An Ruoxi didn't expect Bailijiu to ask her like this, and she couldn't help but be stunned.

She had her own little Jiujiu in her heart, and felt that since the identities of Guan Luo and Elder Yu had been exposed, then she had nothing to hide, and she just took this opportunity to win the other eyes of Baili Jiu, so she just said it one by one. But if she took Bailijiu to that courtyard, it would be a different matter, wouldn't it be a matter of telling the world that this was her An Ruoxi's hands and feet?

She couldn't help but shrink for a moment, with fear on her face: "Ninth Master, that Elder Yu is supernatural and suspicious, and now that place must have been abandoned." Besides, if I blatantly lead you to kill you, won't I bring my parents to death? If you don't dare. ”

Baili Jiu hooked his lips slightly: "It's just a joke, you just need to tell Jiu Ye me where that alley is." ”

An Ruoxi hesitated for a moment: "Dingguo Street, opposite the old Hu tea stall." ”

Baili Jiu naturally knew that place, the last time Guanyin was like a storm, his own guards who were responsible for tracking An Ruoxi's whereabouts were found there.

It seems that that place is most likely a den of thieves. Including that tea stall, there must also be cats, just ask, what boss would put down his business and ignore it, and chase after the tea customers who left things behind? He clearly learned that An Ruoxi had followed him into the alley and came to report to Yuxing. The tea stall operates almost twelve hours a day, and is guarded on the main road, with a wide vision, and should be responsible for the release and communication.

"I forgot to ask Ruoxi, how did you know Elder Yu? Or, last time Elder Yu accompanied Mrs. Shilang to the General's Mansion, what was it for? ”

An Ruoxi suddenly became aware of the loophole in his words, and explained: "I looked at him that time and asked my mother, and my mother said that he took the initiative to find the Shilang Mansion, claiming to be the Jiangxi Mansion and the Jiangxi Mansion was arrested, and Mrs. Nalin was a fugitive wanted by the imperial court, so I asked my mother to bring him here to identify him." My mother, who she didn't know who he was, checked his waist tag, and believed it, fearing that if he told the truth and it would be unfavorable to me, she let him pretend to be a servant of the house and follow him into the house. ”

"I didn't expect that Elder Yu to be so powerful and scheming." Bailijiu sighed with conviction.

An Ruoxi looked at Baili Jiu with tears in her eyes, and begged sadly: "Ruoxi has told the Ninth Master everything he knows, not for anything else, just because Ruoxi knows that the Ninth Master is a person who can be entrusted with his life and is worthy of Ruoxi's trust." If there is danger in the future, the Ninth Master will definitely not abandon it, right? ”

Baili Jiu's hand in the cuff tightened, and there was a letter of resignation that he had written in advance, preparing to make a complete break with An Ruoxi today, so as not to leave the tiger in trouble. But now An Ruoxi's frank admission made him hesitate. Perhaps, now is not the right time to send her back to the Shilang Mansion, and she can't leave for the time being.

Baili Jiu hooked his lips slightly: "In this way, Ruoxi's side is indeed full of dangers, if not, I will send a team of guards to guard the gate of your courtyard and strengthen martial law, so as not to let thieves enter the mansion again, which is not good for you, do you say?" ”

"No, no." An Ruoxi hurriedly refused.

Baili Jiu straightened up: "Obedient is, otherwise what if I can't protect your safety and let you follow in the footsteps of Qin's darling?" How to explain to the Shilang Mansion? ”

After that, he turned around and opened the curtain and went out, and he was going to call someone.

"Ninth Master?" An Ruoxi called pitifully: "Do you not believe Ruoxi? ”

Baili Jiutou didn't reply: "The ninth master doesn't care about you, but he believes it, right?" ”

One sentence refuted her speechless, she knew that she was stupid again: "You obviously want to be under house arrest!" ”

Baili Jiu turned around and shook his head: "No, I never restricted your freedom, I just wanted you to be safer when you came in and out, isn't this exactly what you want?" ”

"Me?"

An Ruoxi wanted to shake her head and say no, she wanted to say what she wanted, but he could give herself a little sense of security like guarding Murong Nuo, she looked at Baili Jiu's cold back, and retreated timidly, once again understanding that her childish thoughts were just foolish dreams.

Baili Jiu raised his voice and called out to the outside of the courtyard: "Yuanbao listens to the order." ”

Yuan Bao flashed in: "What does the ninth master command?" ”

Bailijiu turned his head to look at An Ruoxi, and smiled wickedly, but it made her feel a chill all over her body: "Order a team of guards to strictly protect Mrs. An's safety, and never leave." ”

Yuan Bao was stunned for a moment, and then said very happily: "Obey!" ”

"Also, immediately call a team of skilled guards to go with me to arrest people!"

Yuanbao loves to listen to these words the most, and he responded happily, and immediately went like the wind.

Bailijiu didn't dare to delay, and immediately took Nuoya and Bingluo together, and went towards the Dingguo Street Hutong that An Ruoxi said, and Yuanbao led the people to follow.

The hour is still early, it is not yet late at night, there are still people coming and going on Dingguo Street, but the food stalls on the street have been collected, the tea stall stands alone on the street, there are still two dead wind lamps lit, and there are two or three tables of guests eating tea and enjoying the coolness. The skinny and dry boss sat in front of the tea stall, staring closely at the passers-by, seemingly intently shouting business.

A few people were afraid of startling the snake, so they ordered Bingluo to stay behind to monitor the movement of the tea stall, and the three of them carefully avoided his sight, climbed over the wall and over the ridge, and sneaked into the courtyard that An Ruoxi said.

It was pitch black inside, silent, and the rooms were scrutinized carefully, but there was not half a human figure. And the pot is cold and the stove is cold, as An Ruoxi said, it has been abandoned.

Again pounced, and no clues were left, it was really a cunning rabbit. It seems that Yu Xing is indeed a cunning and suspicious character, and he should not be underestimated.
