Murong Ji returned to Beijing alone, and Night Blade was ordered by Jiang Huaiyin to no longer hide and follow, but to protect him openly.

Arrived safely all the way to the capital, and after returning to the palace, Shen Yue couldn't wait to come to tell the news, saying that there was news from Qinlan Garden.

Murong Xi did not doubt him, and after opening the letter, his eyes froze.

The first half of the letter was indeed written by the Qin Lady, and it was all about trivial matters.

And the tone in the second half suddenly changed, and the things described also made Murong Xi more concerned.

It was Chu Cheng who killed.

Chu Chengshu actually found an important clue about the fire!

When the sky dawned the next day, Murong Xi left the house early and went straight to Jishitang.

Dongfang Li always looked like she couldn't wake up, and when she saw Murong Xi, she thought she was dazzled, and patted the steward beside her, "Did you see a peerless beauty standing over there?" ”

The steward smiled silently, and stepped forward to welcome Murong Xi into the back hall.

Dongfang Li came back to her senses, and hurriedly said with a smile: "I thought that the girl was hunting in spring, and it would take a long time to return." ”

"It seems that Dongfang Gongzi's news is not well-informed enough." Murong Xi smiled, familiar with the road, and walked towards the back hall.

Dongfang Li took the opportunity to whisper in the butler's ear, "Go find Brother Chu quickly." ”

The steward nodded, and ran away.

Dongfang Li did everything, followed, and said with a smile: "I only heard that the eldest prince's arm was broken, I thought that the girl would happily stay in Hunting Mountain to celebrate, but I didn't expect to return to Beijing so soon." ”

The eldest prince's broken arm caused quite a stir in the capital, and it was difficult for Dongfang Li to know it.

Murong Ji said: "You can't live if you do your own evil. I'm here today to find Gongzi Chu, he-"

"Coming soon, coming right away." Dongfang Li expressed her understanding, poured a cup of tea for Murong Xi, and worked hard to brush up her favor for Chu Chengzhi in front of her.

"Don't hide it from the girl, in the past, Brother Chu was in the capital for three months a year. Since I met the girl, Brother Chu has been staying in my Jishitang almost all day in the past few months. ”

Dongfang Li tugged at the corners of her lips and smiled: "Especially for the girl's business, Brother Chu is busy before and after, but I see it in my eyes." ”

"Dongfang Gongzi and Chu Gongzi are my only two friends, I thank you in advance." Murong Xi thought for a while and said, "In order to express my gratitude, find a time, I will come to the east and invite the two of you to drink." ”

"Okay." Dongfang Li stood up, her happy eyebrows dancing, "The girl said that if you say a time, Brother Chu will rush back in an instant even if he is on the way to kill." ”

Murong Ji laughed dryly, Chu Cheng's work was really breathtaking.

What made her feel even more speechless was that such a serious matter could be said so easily in Dongfang Li's mouth.

Regarding the values of human life, Murong Xi didn't dare to agree, and asked Xiang Dongfang Li without much nonsense, "Do you know the news I received Dongfang Gongzi?" ”

"Don't worry, let's talk in detail when Gongzi Chu comes." Dongfang Li waved his hand, put his elbow on the table, approached Murong Xi, and said with his eyebrows fluttering: "My brother Chu, don't look at others coldly, in fact, my heart is very hot." ”

Somehow, Murong Xi suddenly remembered Jiang Huaiyin.

On the surface, he seems to have a thin affection that no one is close to, but recently she has changed her opinion of him.

Especially when he was on the bed, although he didn't make it to the last step, his tenderness and his caress always made Murong Xi's lips smile.

A faint flush spread on his face, and Dongfang Li's smile became stronger and stronger, "I just don't know which girl in this world can be so lucky to get Brother Chu's heart." ”

His thoughts were interrupted, and Murong Xi smiled as usual: "Prince Chu has an extraordinary bearing, and his future wife must also be the proud daughter of the sky." I take the liberty to ask, how old is Gongzi Chu? ”

As Murong Ji, there will be more or less opportunities to meet the girl.

If she is about the same age and has the same identity, maybe it's not bad for her to be a matchmaker.

Her inquiry was regarded as an investigation by Dongfang Li, and she hurriedly replied: "Brother Chu has three out of twenty, his parents are dead, but he has a lot of money. You also know that those who do their job make a lot of money. ”

Murong Xi covered her mouth and chuckled, "Compared to Dongfang Gongzi, it's still a drop in the bucket, right?" ”

Dongfang Li touched her nose, "Almost, almost." However, Brother Chu's money was earned by him with both hands. ”

After thinking about it, his own family background also made a lot of efforts, and he hurriedly changed his words: "It's the same below, but Brother Chu, he-well, is a capable person." ”

Murong Xi smiled, "Okay, I'll make a note of it." When I have the opportunity, I will pay attention to the girls of the right age for Chu Gongzi. ”

"No, that's not what I mean." Dongfang Li looked shocked, and Murong Xi didn't hear the meaning of his words at all?

Murong Xi didn't joke either, "You also know the identity of Gongzi Chu, it is a bit difficult for the family members of high-ranking officials to come out, but if Gongzi Chu doesn't care, it's still okay for the concubine." ”

"You're mistaken, I mean—"

With a "creak", the door opened, Chu Chengshu stood at the door and stared at Dongfang Li with a gloomy gaze, and after glancing at him warningly, he nodded lightly at Murong Xi.

Murong Ji stood up and saluted, "Young Master Chu, you came just in time, what you said in the letter is true?" ”

"Miss Murong." Chu Chengshu walked into the room, raised his hand and put the big knife aside, "After the incident of Bashu, the evidence found in the next was confirmed again and again before the girl was informed." ”

"I'm not suspicious of Master Chu's methods, I'm just too shocked." Murong Xi hurriedly explained, "Then since the real Lin Xian is still alive in the world, where is he hiding?" ”

While speaking, Murong Xi and Chu Chengshu sat down one after another, Chu Chengshu picked up the empty cup and pushed it to Dongfang Li, tapped his fingers on the table, and motioned for him to pour tea.

"Still investigating. However, Lin Xian's family, after the fire in the General's Mansion, will have a huge income every six months. Therefore, it was concluded that Lin Xian was still alive in the world. ”

Dongfang Li was embarrassed and embarrassed to pour tea for Chu Cheng, and he was holding him inside and outside the words, "Brother Chu has taken great pains for Miss Murong's affairs." Look, my face is tired and black. ”

Chu Cheng killed: "! ”

His gaze was sharper than his broadsword, and he poked Dongfang Li's face in disregard.

Murong Xi: "This matter will continue to bother Young Master Chu, as for the Shangyuan Festival, I'm sorry." ”

"Girl, don't care, the cause of my hatred with him is not because of you." Chu Chengshu said lightly.

In any case, Jiang Huaiyin is the biggest task of the Dark Night Gate.

His grudge with him is not personal, but powerful.

Murong Xi pursed her lips and wanted to ask Chu Chengshu why he regarded Jiang Huaiyin as an enemy, but after thinking about it, didn't he want to touch a needle to kill him from time to time?

gave up asking, got up and said with a smile: "Cheng, I also told Dongfang Gongzi just now, I will be Dongfang when I have time, please go down to the restaurant." ”

Chu Chengshou nodded, "When I find news of Lin Xian, Chu will definitely go to the appointment." ”

Asked about what she wanted to ask, Murong Xi bought some more medicinal herbs and prepared to leave Jishitang.

Dongfang Li and Chu Chengshou saw each other off in person, and when they walked to the front door, a noblewoman-like person passed by Murong Xi.

She saw Dongfang Li at a glance, with a gentle greeting on her face, "Dongfang Hall Master, long time no see." ”

"Madame is a rare guest." Dongfang Li nodded at Murong Xi, turned around and greeted the noblewoman, "Looking at Madame's face, I think the effect of the medicine is still good——"
