Xu Yi's refusal is obviously not relieved of what happened before. It was also expected by Zhou Fang a long time ago: "Brother Xu, it was really not you I betrayed that time, as for how the murderer knew, I still don't understand."

Of course, even if I am not the one who betrayed you, it is my sin to fail to protect you, I only hope that Brother Xu can turn over the unhappy scene in the past, and at the same time read it for the sake of the deceased, and tell the truth who is the person who made the silver needle? Even if you reveal a star, it's fine. ”

"If I read it for the sake of the dead, who can read it for the sake of our whole house?" Xu Yi laughed coldly, making Zhou Fang tremble all over, "Get out!" From now on, you are not welcome here! ”

"I ...... Brother Xu, don't be impulsive, if you let go of the wicked person today, maybe he will kill many people. Could it be that Brother Xu's conscience can be safe? ”

"——! Get out! Xu Yi clenched a red-hot long sword in his hand and slowly approached Zhou Fang.

Zhou Fang's bad mood towards Xu Yi, even if he found out how strong the murderer's urgent mood was, he could only stop and walk out of Xu Yi's blacksmith shop.

Just when Zhou Fang's front foot just stepped out of the threshold, Xu Yi shouted: "Stop!" ”

Zhou Fang seemed to suddenly find a glimmer of light from the darkness, turned around, and stared at Xu Yi with expectant eyes.

Xu Yi's indifferent expression was a little softer: "From now on, don't try to find clues from me, that person is wearing a robe, his whole face is covered by a layer of black cloth, and I can't see his appearance clearly at all." ”

Xu Yi stopped talking and continued to hammer iron tools with his apprentices.

Zhou Fang knew that this was the limit revealed by Xu Yi, and if he asked again, he would not get the following, so he had to walk out of the house again, and at the moment of walking out, Zhou Fang heard a sentence from Xu Yi again: "I advise you, walk more at night, you will encounter any demons and monsters." ”

Zhou Fang didn't know why Xu Yi, who was angry with him, said such a sentence, was it to remind him of what he would encounter when he went out at night?

Or curse him for being robbed and killed by the wicked at night?

What's included, maybe it's still cynicism, it's just that, what you owe to others, you have to pay it back.

……

Liu Ling and Xu Yun walked through several alleys and came to a tall gatehouse, where the gauze lamps on both sides of the gate illuminated the surroundings, and the door plaque above read 'Lu Fu'.

At this time, it was already the third watch, Liu Ling covered his hungry stomach with both hands, leaned against the closed door, and frowned tightly.

deserved to be unlucky today, but I met a thief halfway through and stole Xu Yun's silver bag.

Because he ran all the way to chase, despite Xu Yun's martial arts skills, he couldn't stand the crowding of pedestrians in the night market, dodged left and right, and chased for a long time before catching up.

I just caught up with the night curfew, lest I run into the city guards patrolling at night, like thieves, sneaky, and hard, I finally came to Lu Mansion, and I went around and around for so long that I didn't even bother to eat dinner.

Xu Yun clasped her shoulders with her hands, stared at Liu Ling, and asked coldly, "What's the matter, your body is not supported?" Do you want to go back to the county government and find something to eat in the back kitchen? ”

Returning to the county government from Lu Mansion, not to mention that the distance is not far, just to avoid the city guards, it is estimated that it can also reach dawn.

Liu Ling knew that Xu Yun was mocking her, hunger had made Liu Ling unable to do it himself, where did he have time to argue with him: "It's come to this hour, it's impossible to find anything else, you still take me to Lu Yuan's room to see if I can find any clues." ”

As soon as Liu Ling's words were finished, Xu Yun had already come to the side of the high wall.

Liu Ling didn't want Xu Yun to sneak into the Lu Mansion at this time, but seeing that Xu Yun couldn't wait, he had to walk over, so as not to provoke him, and the eight old cows were not moved.

The old rules, Liu Ling still hugged Xu Yun's waist.

Although it is not the first time that Xu Yun and Liu Ling have snuggled up to each other in close proximity, they are still very unwell, and their hearts will be tense for a while.

Helplessly, the case is important, and this unquiet heart can only be put aside first, and if you are wronged, it may be over.

From the moment they stood on the roof, facing the gauze lamp under the eaves, they could already see the structure of the entire courtyard, which was a two-way courtyard, and entered from the south gate with free access, and there were shadow walls on both sides.

On the south side is a row of inverted houses with doors facing north, and then to the north, there is a hanging flower door, and when you walk in, you can enter the main courtyard in the second courtyard.

There are east and west wings on both sides of the main courtyard, the northernmost row, the middle is the main room, and the two sides of the main house are the ear rooms.

Although this courtyard is not a mansion, it is a hundred times stronger than Wei Xuan's home.

When the two of them landed in the courtyard, Xu Yun's heart began to drum, looking at the courtyard that was not too big, but it was not easy to determine Lu Yuan's residence immediately from a house close to twenty rooms in the dead of night and the lights were blind.

However, Xu Yun wanted to see how Liu Ling faced this embarrassment.

I saw Liu Ling unhurriedly followed the verandah to the west wing, listened attentively for a while, and did not hear anyone's wheezing voice, then turned around and waved his hand to Xu Yun.

Xu Yun was suspicious and walked in slowly: "Are you sure?" Don't be caught, but the gains outweigh the losses. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, just follow me." Liu Ling didn't like Xu Yun to question her skills, walked to the door, pulled out a thick steel needle from her head, slowly stretched it into the keyhole, and it was opened in three clicks.

Xu Yun stared at Liu Ling differently, and let out a long breath, fortunately, Liu Ling was a person from the yamen, if he changed the people in the market and had such a lock-picking technique, the whole capital would not be messed up.

Xu Yun looked at the woman in front of her, she didn't know any of the rules in the boudoir, but she was proficient in everything, I don't know whether to compliment her or belittle her?

The two entered the house, Xu Yun lit the candlestick not far away with a fire fold, and the three-bay house suddenly lit up, with pink curtains hanging on top of each other, and the copper incense burner that had long lost the fireworks in the world stood in the middle of the room.

There is a pair of red lacquer tables on both sides, on the table on the left, there is a large copper mirror erected, and all kinds of bead hairpins are placed next to it, and the place next to the bead hairpin is listed in turn, and all the objects to be used are listed in turn, such as women's powder, eyebrows, forehead yellow, oblique red, and lipstick.

On the table on the right, there are cups and wine utensils, all kinds of things, and there is a Ru kiln vase next to it, in which there is a bunch of various colored flower branches that have long been dried up.

Further inside, there is a row of colorful screens in the style of exotic flowers and plants, which are protected by a huge bed, and the pink veil tightly wraps the bed.

Next to the bed, there are two large red lacquer cabinets, filled with all kinds of colorful skirts.

……

Liu Ling lifted the veil on the bed and sat on it, the movement was so great that the veil on his face almost fell off.

Liu Ling hung up the rope of the veil and patted the side: "Why don't you come and sit down too?" ”

Xu Yun walked into Liu Ling, didn't sit down, and asked, "How do you know that this room is Lu Yuan's boudoir?" ”

Liu Ling smiled indifferently: "It's very simple!" A courtyard that is not big or small, that is, these dozen houses, the main house must be where the Shen family lives, and the ear rooms on both sides can only be the rooms of the lower door.

As for the east and west wings, with the folk customs, in addition to the main house, the east is the first, and the west is secondary, and the son of the Shen family is the future owner who will inherit the Lu family's family business in the future, so it is natural that he will also live in the east wing.

Ah, the West Wing we are staying in will definitely be Lu Yuan's room. However, in a small courtyard, you can see such a warm and comfortable boudoir, which shows that Lu Yuan's taste is very high. Would really like to meet her in person if possible. Pity......

Xu Zhutou, you also saw that everything here is in order, there is no shortage of gold and silver jewelry, and the clothes are also full of chests.

Assuming that Lu Yuan was willingly hidden by Wei Gongzi, with the impoverished predicament of Wei Gongzi's family, Lu Yuan would definitely loot this place, how could he leave the things he needed for daily life? ”
