Chapter 692: Finale II
Coming out of Donghua Gate, she went straight to Xinyi Pharmacy.
Regardless of whether Zhao Zhen will pay attention to Gao Minglou's arrival, she herself has to plan early.
She called An Niangzi and Hu Man, specially told the safety and vigilance of all aspects of the pharmacy, and then looked at the patients of Lonely Wu and Zhou Daozi, and then returned home.
The children didn't go to school, they all nested at home, there was a girl in the yard clearing the snow, and a few small ones pestered Xiangling in the canteen to eat skewers.
In the past, when I was very bored in Nanjing, the family liked to eat skewers in the yard, and after returning to Beijing, they were busy in their own way, and there was no opportunity for a long time, the children were panicked, and Xiangling was entangled in no way, so I had to let the cook prepare the dishes.
The dining hall was filled with joy.
Xin Yi didn't show any emotion, called the two stewards Xingyuan and Taoyu over, and privately mentioned the safety issue, so he played with the children with a smile.
When Fu Jiuqu came back, the skewers had just come out of the fragrance.
I smelled it from afar, Duan Sui ran faster than a rabbit, and the first one to rush up was about to take it, so Xiang Ling beat it.
Xin Yi saw him laughing a few times and walked to Fu Jiuqu's side.
"Gao Minglou is back."
Fu Jiuqu snorted, "I've seen it today." โ
"So fast?" Xin Yi was slightly surprised.
Fu Jiuqu sat down steadily, and Sannian obediently brought the skewers and put them in front of him.
"Uncle Fu, you eat."
Fu Jiuqu nodded, didn't take it, his face was a little serious, motioned for the children to play by themselves, and then talked with Xin Yi.
"His appearance is a little different from back then, and his temperament has changed greatly. Gao Xiangguo of Dali said that Gao Minglou was imprisoned in Dali for four years, and when he came out, he became like this. Not only that, but he didn't remember what happened to Da Song last time. โ
"I don't remember." Xin Yi chuckled, picked up a skewer with a bamboo skewer, and bit it into his mouth, "If you don't remember, you can shirk all the responsibility?" What a trick. โ
Thinking of today's advice to the official family, Xin Yi asked again: "What does the official family say?" Has he ever been deported? โ
Fu Jiuqu shook his head, "Dali Gao Xiangguo asked him to toast in public to make amends, said a lot of good things, and brought several cars of gifts when he came to Beijing this time. In any case, the official family also has to sell this face. โ
Xin Yi was a little disappointed.
But many things are very thorough from her point of view, but others may not be like this......
"I don't believe he has amnesia. Next, get ready. As long as Gao Minglou is in Bianjing for one day, we must be vigilant. โ
Fu Jiuqu nodded, as if he was a little tired, and lay on the chair with his eyes closed.
Xin Yi sat beside him and looked at him closer, Fu Jiuqu noticed that her staring eyes opened slightly, and the corners of her lips hooked.
"I'm a little tired, let me take a nap."
Xin Yi's eyes blinked slightly, "I just suddenly thought of a good idea to find Xiao Hou Ye and Lan'er, do you want to hear it?" โ
Fu Jiuqu noticed her tone, and his face changed slightly, "Let's talk about it." โ
Xin Yi said: "I think Gao Minglou came to Bianjing, it is by no means as simple as coming to make amends with his father. His appearance must have something to do with Zhang Xun, Cai Qi's disappearance, and what auspicious Bodhi Zi is. I wondered, is it possible to ......?"
She looked at Fu Jiuqu and was silent.
Fu Jiuqu's face was a little sharper, "What do you want?" โ
Xin Yi said: "Actually, Cao Yilan came to ask me to go to Liangyu Wazi with me that night, and I thought that the other party might be interested in me?" So, can we use me as bait to fish each other out? โ
Fu Jiuqu's face sank, and his expression was extremely cold.
"No, you can't. At this juncture, there is no chaos. You don't want to be cranky, so protecting yourself and not distracting me is the best way......"
Xin Yi frowned dissatisfiedly, "Every time you say that, it's as if I'm inferior to you and will only make trouble for you." Hmph, machismo! If you think about it, I've done a few wrong things for you over the years......"
Fu Jiuqu can't afford to mess with this aunt.
smiled helplessly, lowered his head and compensated her.
"The lady has never missed it, but I care about it and mess up, and I don't choose what to say. But at the moment, the other party's intentions are unclear, and we must not change our own positions. Cai Qi and Cao Yilan are gone, how dare I put you in danger again......"
Xin Yi: "Preemptive strike is the best policy." If you are always led by the nose like this, even if you find someone, it is a rat trap, why don't you fight, reverse the situation between the enemy and us, and explore the intentions of Gao Minglou by the way? โ
"Eleven." Fu Jiuqu's face was full of disagreement.
"Brother Jiu, don't worry." Xin Yi held his hand, "First, I will be under your surveillance the whole time, and I will not put myself in danger." Second, I'm not a soft-footed shrimp like Cao Yilan, if anyone catches me, he should ask for more blessings. โ
The corners of Fu Jiuqu's lips twitched slightly.
Didn't speak, but it was clearly loose.
A smile broke into the corner of Xin Yi's lips.
"Third, I've already thought of a solution."

Before leaving the house, Xin Yi specially changed into men's clothes, ordered Duan Sui to accompany him, and called two guards, she and Duan Sui dressed up as businessmen looking for flowers and willows, and also "put on makeup" a little, and gave Duan Sui two mustaches, and the guards dressed up as small servants.
Leaving the house from the corner gate, she went to the car shop and rented an unrecognizable carriage.
"Lady...... No, brother, where are we going? Duan Sui's monk was confused.
He's a simple-minded man.
Xin Yi was inconvenient to talk to him too much, so he only explained to the coachman.
"Go to Liangyu Wazi."
Duan Sui said puzzledly: "The good jade tiles have been searched, and the people are making a living, even if there is any suspicion, if we ask again, we can't ask why......"
Xin Yi slowly flicked the sleeves of his robe.
"Money makes the devil grind."
Seeing Duan Sui's bitter face and ignorant, she groaned for a while, and then explained, "Someone asked after a while, remember to say that we are pharmacists from Yangzhou." โ
Why do you say that, first, they are familiar with Yangzhou, and second, they are familiar with the medicinal materials industry, and they will not leak their mouths, which makes people suspicious.
Duan Sui said: "I'm not worried about this...... I'm worried about ......"
"Worried about what?"
"Where did I get the money to let the devil grind? I'm so poor that I can't help the ghost grind my ......."
Xin Yi looked at his cowardice, took out a handful of gold leaves from his purse, and handed it to him.
"There is a little girl who comes to pour tea and water, don't be reluctant to spend money."
Duan Sui's eyes were straight.
"This, this, the lady is taking me there...... Prostitution? โ
Xinyi: ......
She looked at Duan Sui's strange face and raised her eyebrows, "So, you are ecstatic......"
Duan Sui: "I think this gold is hot." Lady, I've never done this before, if it gets out, will it ruin my reputation, after all, I haven't married a wife yet......"
Xin Yi glared at him.
"Shut up, you. With me here, do you want these good things? For a while, obediently, look at the way I look. โ
Duan Sui sighed, the whole person became excited, and asked in a suppressed voice.
"We went behind the back of the county king and secretly went to investigate the case?"
Xin Yi pondered for a moment and nodded, "You can't spoil my good deeds, let alone reveal your identity, if necessary, you must plan ......."
"Count the count, count the count......"
Duan Sui nodded several times, pondering what kind of plan this general plan was, and felt that he was very valued by the princess of the county, so he decided to behave well, and let Cheng Cang also see that he was also a person who could play conspiracy.
Hum! What is it to let the county king take a fancy to it?
In terms of cunning, the princess of the county is much more powerful than the princess of the county.
It is even more remarkable to let the princess of the county take a fancy than to let the princess of the county take a fancy to it.
Xin Yi looked at his face and glanced at him, "What are you thinking?" โ
Duan Sui hurriedly put away his little thoughts, and said solemnly: "I'm thinking about how to pretend to be a prostitute." Brother, do you think I'll be kicked out because my image is too upright......? No, brother, you teach me, we still have to learn the way of prostitution first......"
Xinyi: ......
"Rest assured, as long as you have money, you won't be kicked out."
"Really? It turns out that these people are just as open-minded as me? โ
Xin Yi had no way to deal with him, and he was entangled in many details.
For example, let Duan Sui call him "Brother Jiannian", and said some special circumstances that he might encounter, and Duan Sui was satisfied with his own "practice".

Xin Yi guessed correctly, seeing that their group was rich and wealthy, Wazili immediately welcomed them into the private room, and served them like grandfathers, hating to offer them.
There are few people tonight, and it is not as lively as before.
Xin Yi called the two girls to accompany them, listening to the music comfortably, beating the beat, and talking with or without a match.
"When I came to Bianjing, someone recommended Liangyu tile to me, saying that it was very lively in this tile, the girl was pretty, and her talent was also outstanding, how could it be like this......
"Where did the official beating come from?"
"Yangzhou."
"No wonder the officials don't know."
A girl sighed and said: "It was fine two days ago, but today the government came to the palace twice, saying that there are two nobles missing, and they may have come to our Wazi before they disappeared......"
"And such a thing?" Xin Yi looked curious.
"Isn't it? Alas, what a pity for us. It's hard to wait until the end of the year when the business is good, you can earn a few more silver, save up to redeem yourself, this trouble, you don't dare to come to the door, where is the money ......"
There was a hint of interest in Xin Yi's eyes.
"You want to redeem yourself?"
The girl who spoke seemed a little embarrassed when she asked, and glanced at her companion embarrassedly, and then sighed faintly.
"Who wouldn't want to be free?"
Xin Yi laughed, suddenly reached out to hold the girl's hand, and pinched it.
"How about I redeem you?"
