The spring thunder snapped its fingers for the first time, and the spring rain couldn't wait to fall one by one, and they had already waited for a cycle for this moment to come. The creatures of the earth were reborn after drinking this cup of fairy dew, and they hung up green flags to cheer for their new lord, and the whole kingdom was so lively and happy.

Hua Yan sat by the window with the book, absentmindedly turning the pages, and after a while, as if remembering something, he walked quickly to the desk, picked up the pen and pondered for a long time, but did not write a word.

"Miss, I embroidered a brocade bag with this year's new silk brocade, and the apricot blossoms that Miss often brings are still in it, and the one on Miss has been wearing it for three or four years, and the ear belt has long been broken, so now I will change to this new one."

Xin Qiao and Sheng Lan sat on the side doing small needlework, and seeing that the young lady was going to be alone and dull like last night, Xin Qiao deliberately took the freshly embroidered bag and came forward to talk.

"You don't need to change it, I'm used to wearing it, and although I've worn it for several years, it's not bad at all, you see."

Hua Yan fumbled for the ornament between his belt, but he couldn't find the brocade bag, and he couldn't find it after rummaging through all the pockets.

Xinqiao and Shenglan also hurriedly went around to help find it, they knew that this brocade bag had always been Miss's personal belongings, and they attached great importance to it, but the three of them searched the entire bath flower stream and couldn't find it.

"Didn't Miss Miss fall out last night? I knew that Miss's brocade bag had been worn for three or four years, and the tassel belt should have broken a long time ago. Since I can't find it, let's wear this one for me first! ”

"It's a pity......" Hua Yan said in amazement.

"Isn't it good for Miss to think that Xinqiao made a brocade bag?" Xin Qiao pretended to pout and said.

"Of course not, Aunt Pan treats me like a mother, how can I not cherish what she has done for me." Huayan was afraid that Xinqiao would be wrong, and hurriedly explained.

"Hehe, let's wear a clever one." Xin Qiao hurriedly tied the tassel belt on the brocade bag in her hand to the belt of Huayan. If you want to talk about Xinqiao's biggest hobby, it is to take care of her young lady all the time.

"Hey! What a clever girl. Hua Yan gently tapped Xin Qiao's head and smiled.

"The one who talks and laughs with us like this is the young lady we knew before." Sheng Lan suddenly said from behind.

"Yes, Miss, don't worry about the banquet anymore, just a plum blossom smile, how can you stump Miss."

"It's not the plum blossom smile that is difficult."

"What's that?" Sheng Lan and Xin Qiao asked at the same time.

"Plum blossom laughter since that night in the forgotten dust building, everyone in the streets and alleys knows. In terms of the art of flute, my painter has been passed down from generation to generation, and since I live in the capital, I am indispensable to compare myself with my eldest sister. Mrs. Zhang's move, I am afraid that there is another purpose, and it is reported that she has been courting courtiers for the prince when she came in. Since his father took office as Taishou, he has been deeply used by the imperial court, and if he is defeated, he will be made fun of by the courtiers, and even the geisha in the teahouse are not as good. If you win......"

Sheng Lan picked up the conversation at this time, "It must have swept the face of those who want to see jokes, not to mention that it was Miss ...... that night."

Xin Qiao didn't wait for Sheng Lan to finish speaking, and immediately said, "There is no first way to say, Miss, how can you lose!" ”

"Forget it, it's useless to think too much, let's act when the opportunity arises. Shenglan, get ready, and immediately follow me to the Forgotten Dust Building. ”

Since returning from the Forgotten Dust Building five days ago, many questions have been emerging in Huayan's mind, she can no longer hold back the desire to solve the problem, can't wait for the shepherd's reply, this time she wants to find an answer in person.

"But Miss, Madame ordered that you are not allowed to leave the house while Madame and the eldest lady are out of the house......" The more Xin Qiao spoke, the more powerless she felt, when did her young lady obey the order.

"Yes, miss." Sheng Lan didn't say a word, and immediately went to prepare the men's clothes needed to leave the house.

"My mother and sister went to visit my second aunt, and I had to stay there for four or five days, and my father was often too busy to be at home.

"Miss......"

"It's hard work, I'll bring you your favorite lotus root paste when I come back, bye."

Huayan and Shenglan quickly changed their outfits, and flipped out of the back wall in a puff of smoke.

Although it is spring, the remaining cold has not yet dissipated, and the wind blowing on the street is carrying a drizzle, so people have to tighten their necks, wrap their clothes tightly, and stride with umbrellas. Even so, the people on Dragon Snake Street are still the slightest bit less.

Sheng Lan walked on the side without panic and held an umbrella for Hua Yan, the street was crowded with human figures, but Hua Yan's body had never been wet.

At this time, I don't know what happened in front of me, and there was a lot of noise. A ragged man, holding a brocade cloth burden, rushed out of the crowded crowd in front of him, knocked the pedestrians who had not yet noticed them into their backs, and even the roadside tofu stalls were pushed to the ground. I heard a man's shout from behind: "Catch the thief!" Catch the thief! ”

The thief was also unlucky, but he was met by the painting face that had just come out for a walk, and he couldn't close his eyes if he wanted to, so he couldn't help but hit the muzzle of the gun by himself.

Seeing that the thief was about to collide head-on, saying that it was too late and that was fast, Huayan unhurriedly pushed Shenglan behind him to the right, and gently turned to the left, just so that the thief passed by the corner of his clothes, let him go? However, it was not so easy, and Hua Yan had already quietly stretched out his right foot and knocked the thief down.

"Miss, are you alright?" Sheng Lan ran to her young lady and asked hurriedly.

Hua Yan shook his head, indicating that it was fine. He opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it gently, and said to the black-faced thief on the ground with an expressionless face: "A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. Brother, I don't like you to do this. ”

Although the thief had taken a heel, how could he not give up, and he was about to run away from the ground, but just as he raised his feet to chase after him, the thief fell down again. I saw a person leap out of the back of the crowd, came to the thief's side, picked him up, and returned the burden in the thief's hand to the owner who hurriedly caught up.

"Now that the burden has been returned to you, this man will be handed over to me."

Seeing that the burden had been recovered, and there was a lot of money, the owner left angrily after scolding a few times.

The appearance of the person who came at the gallop was very familiar, wearing a loose long green shirt, with a slender and steady figure, and his movements were chic and free. Looking at the front, it was as expected.

"Wait...... You know that there is no other trick to smash people with a wine glass......"

The man turned his head at the sound, looked at the painting suspiciously, and was silent for a while, then changed his hand and grabbed the thief, and stepped forward. Yes, he is the man in green that Hua Yan met in the Forgotten Dust Building before.

"I don't know what Brother Tai is going to do with this person?"

Seeing that he accidentally said something, Hua Yan immediately added. Seeing that he was staring at himself closely, he was silent for a long time, for fear of being recognized by him, so he unnaturally turned his eyes from side to side to escape.

"Could it be that the little brother also has an idea?"

Seeing that his expression was calm and unremarkable, I didn't recognize him. Also, he was veiled at that time, and even if he changed back into women's clothes at the moment, he wouldn't recognize it. Although he didn't want to show his true face, he inadvertently wandered a little bit of loss in his heart.

"I'm not a nosy person, and I don't talk about the merits of catching a thief just now, just from the perspective of a bystander. Brother Tai might as well be a word and a lesson, this little brother is not clothed, he has long been frozen and injured everywhere, if he is handed over directly to the government, I am afraid that he will never see the sun again. Although he is guilty, he thinks that there is a reason, please spare him. ”

The other party raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly. "That's what I want to do when I keep him from the lost master."

"Buy some clothing with these taels of silver, and do not steal them again."

The little thief trembled and took the money bag handed to him by the man in green, and was about to walk back, when he said again: "Xiao Hei, if you have nowhere to go, go to the Charity Hall, where the owner is my friend for many years, report the name of my little eighth master, and that person will accept you." ”

The thief seemed stunned for a moment, "I'm not called Xiao Hei, my name is Limu." After saying that, he left without looking back.

"The little brother is the little eighth master of the forgotten dust building, I can't imagine that the eighth master is so righteous."

"It's despicable, no, who did you think I was before today? Listening to what you mean, could it be that you think of me as a person full of evil? ”

"Hahaha, it's not that bad."

“...... What do you think of my eighth master...... Could it be that I have imitated it like this? ......" Huayan secretly rolled his eyes while he was not paying attention, touched his mustache, and secretly pondered his image in his heart.

Hua Yan changed his mind and said: "This little thief is also a poor person, in the past few years, there have been many wars, and famine has been followed for a few years, and now that the new dynasty has just been built, it can't fill this big hole at once." If he wants to live, he can only do this, although it is wrong, but it is excusable. ”

"If you can't calm the people, then the people will rebel."

Hua Yan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the reaction of the man in green, but he seemed careless.

"The younger brother saw that his brother's action was extraordinary, and he was chivalrous and righteous, and he was light on money and charitable. I don't know if the younger brother can be lucky enough to get acquainted with the brother. ”

The man in green bent down to pick up the wine bag that fell on the ground, patted the dust gently, and said with a smile when he heard this, "Hahaha, I'm afraid I'll disappoint my little brother. Minglang shook the wine bag in his hand and was about to go back.

It turns out that he is called Minglang.

Huayan stopped two steps, and then followed, "The little brother is confident that the wine of the Forgotten Dust Building will not disappoint Brother Lang, that is, he is a fellow believer, it is better to go together, please." ”

"Okay, I'm about to go, please."
