Without having to stay up for a few days and nights, and without going back to Yucheng to ask his parents for a private conversation, Lu Yizhi quickly learned what he didn't know before.

The old servant guarding the house in the capital knelt on the ground and told the story arranged by Master Lu.

Although he is far away from Yucheng, as an important servant who takes care of his son, the family needs to understand the child's food, clothing, housing and transportation, and he also needs to pay attention to the big and small things at home.

The entanglement between Master Lu and Ah Qi is also related to Gongzi, even if he didn't tell him so much detail, he inquired in detail, even better than the servants in the family.

It's just that these little things don't need to be told to Childe at all.

Childe never felt the need to ask.

It's just a foster orphan girl.

Who would have thought that Childe seemed to suffer in front of the orphan girl.

A thought flashed through the old servant, just like the old man had done back then.

This is the capital, there is no Lu family's shop, only Gongzi, it will be miserable to fold Gongzi into it, and he no longer dares to hide it.

"Just trying to teach her a lesson." The old servant stammered, "Set a fire, scare her, and let her go home." ”

Lu Yizhi looked at the flickering lights: "Set a fire, Lu An, you are so old, tell me, in the middle of the night, when people fall asleep, put a fire on the house, is it just to scare people?" ”

The old servant lowered his head, of course...... No.

The weather is dry, the night is quiet, and a fire is burned, and you may choke to death before you are frightened.

Not to mention......

"What else did you just say? Went with a knife, in order to pry the door? As a result, his hand slipped and poked himself, hacking himself to death? Lu Yizhi said, immediately lost his smile, and reached out to press his forehead and sighed.

The old servant was a little wronged and hurriedly said, "Childe, this is true." ”

At least half of it is true.

I was really accidentally stabbed to death with a knife.

Kill yourself? Lu Yizhi sneered again in his heart, although he was a scholar, he also knew that how could someone who was going to kill kill himself? Either kill someone else or be killed by someone else......

It's just that....

His brow furrowed too, someone else? In the middle of the night, by the lake outside the village, there are two orphan girls, who is someone else?

The appearance of seven stars couldn't help but appear in front of his eyes.

The panic that threw himself into his arms, hiding his face with a handkerchief in front of him and sobbing, perhaps because he couldn't see his face clearly in that situation, so Mohu dispersed, and all that remained in his impression was sitting in front of him not long ago, holding the tea.

At that moment, although his thoughts were chaotic, his vision was extremely clear, and he could see the woman's face clearly.

It was a beautiful and unfamiliar face.

The voice of the old servant in my ear was still speaking.

"As a result, I left a handle, and I was coerced by that servant, at that time, it happened that the new prefect of Xucheng was rectifying the officials, and the Ning family had been arrested, and the master didn't want to cause trouble....."

When he heard this, Lu Yizhi was slightly stunned, sat up straight, and interrupted the old servant: "You said that the prefect of Xucheng rectified the rule of officials...."

The old servant nodded, yes, the second lady's mother's family, something happened, and I told my son at the time, but in the end, it was a relative's family, and it didn't have much to do with their Lu family.

However, it cannot be said that it is completely unrelated.

The old servant sighed with a little hatred.

"The second lady's maiden brother was beheaded, and the family was destroyed in the blink of an eye."

Although he is only a secretary, the prefect changes every three or five years, and the officials have been in the local area for generations, and it is often more convenient to do things in the local area than to be an official.

The Lu family merchants, after getting married, also got the convenience of the Ning family.

If you say no, it's gone, with less help and more stains, and Second Mrs. Ning can't come out to meet people again.

The old servant was resentful and regretful, and the son who listened in his ears asked: "Why is the prefect Chaning family?" ”

Why? Having said that, rectify the rule of officials.

The old servant looked up at Childe.

Lu Yizhi looked at him and asked again: "I mean the reason, on what basis did you take the Ning family?" ”

Why? The old servant was asked, does the official need a reason to get rid of an official?

Isn't it just those who are corrupt, gain power, and fish and meat in the township, oh, Ning officials also make false accounts, which is the key to the prefect's intolerability.

"Tell me from beginning to end." Lu Yizhi said, "From the very beginning. ”

At the beginning, the old servant thought about it, that is, Ning Twenty-four Gongzi was arrested, saying that he was rampant and domineering, but in fact, it was just a disguise, and then they understood after thinking about it, it was to confuse Ning Yan, and sure enough, step by step, the big crime of cutting off the head was set on Ning Yi's head, saying that Ning Yi ......

"Don't talk about Ning Official, say Twenty-Four Sons." Lu Yizhi interrupted.

What is there to say about the twenty-fourth son, just that little thing, rampant and domineering, idle, fighting cocks and dogs, and there is even a little girl who said that she had eaten a bad stomach in the restaurant and blackmailed and sold prey.....

"You said earlier, what did Ah Qi do for a living after he left home?" Lu Yizhi suddenly asked.

The old servant was stunned again.

The little guy kneeling on the side rushed to shout: "Sell mountain goods!" Pheasants, hares, and wild boars! ”

After the little girl shouted this, she didn't hear the son ask again, and the room instantly fell silent.

The old servant opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something but seemed to be unable to say anything, his eyes were full of disbelief.

Childe sat motionless, his eyes frozen.

"So ....." Lu Yizhi spoke slowly.

The old servant hurriedly said: "Yes, the second lady said that she wanted the twenty-fourth prince to help, but... Not long after saying this, the twenty-fourth son was arrested. ”

It's too fast, so fast that the second lady doesn't think that the twenty-fourth prince has made a move.

Besides, if you really make a move, how could it be that the maid made the Ning family arrested? How could she use the government?

"Childe, you're thinking too much." The old servant muttered.

Lu Yizhi leaned back in his chair, looked at the two servants kneeling in the room, and waved his hand: "Go down." ”

The little servant still didn't react, didn't he ask, he just started to speak, and then saw the old servant walk out in a daze.

There is no need to ask these servants, the one who should know knows, and if there is anything else that you don't know, you can just ask that person.

The door closed, and the night wind swirled, and the candles jumped, and the light and shadow tugged as if to tear him apart.

Lu Yizhi looked at the shadow on the ground, it had grown so big, and for the first time, he felt that he had become fragmented.

He had never had such an embarrassment, and in front of a woman.

……

……

Pushing open the window of the water pavilion, the sunlight and water are reflected, like pearls falling on the jade plate, surrounded by red and yellow leaves, colorful, several young women crowded by the window, watching this scene from afar, discussing that it should be painted.

"This kind of autumn scenery can only be painted by Miss Xiahou." A young lady laughed.

The other lady looked left and right: "Miss Xiahou? ”

Only then did everyone realize that Miss Xiahou was not around, so they hurriedly turned around to look for it, and saw that Miss Xiahou was still sitting on the soft couch, and the maid was whispering something in front of her.

"Didn't come home today?" Miss Xiahou asked softly.

The maid nodded and whispered, "Let Qingniu say it, and go to Linglong Fang again." ”

Still going, didn't convince last time? Miss Xiahou thought to herself.

"Qing." The ladies over there called, "Come and see, draw this autumn light." ”

Miss Xiahou raised her head and smiled at everyone, answered the call, and then whispered to the maidservant: "Don't worry, the third prince can convince her." ”

I hope that Qixing is not a woman from Hutu.

Everyone yearns for the good scenery in this world, but not all scenery can be kept, and if it is not worthwhile, the beauty can also become a swamp.

……

……

Seeing that the boy got out of the car, the two little guys carried another box, and the shop guys on both sides couldn't help but giggle and laugh.

"How can anyone just come to repair one and send another one? That's the excuse. ”

"There's a play, there's a play."

Sitting in the tea shop, wearing a hat, wearing coarse cloth clothes, and dressed as a coolie, Zhu Chuan pouted, withdrew his gaze from the box he was carrying, and actually came to send money again, this kid is really useless!

The box was slammed into the ground again.

This time, there was no need to say hello, the pheasant took the initiative to open the box and see the money in it.

"The third son is a scholar." She said, "It's better to do business, or the big man is generous." ”

Lu Yizhi did not have the lost soul when he left that day, and regained his son's graceful demeanor, but there was no breezy smile on his face.

In the face of this servant girl who did not hide his attitude, he didn't have any reaction, just looked at Qixing who walked in.

"I'm almost done." He said, "There's just one more thing I want to ask you to be sure." ”

Qixing sat down and hummed, "Childe, please sit down and ask." ”

Lu Yizhi didn't sit down: "Ning Yi's house was raided, it is also related to you, right?" ”

Qixing looked at him and smiled: "I just said that the third prince is smart, you can find out what others know, and you can also find out what others don't know." ”

Sure enough, it was her, although there was already a guess, but when she heard it, Lu Yizhi couldn't help but be a little dazed.

How is this possible?

"How did you do that?" He couldn't help but ask.

Qixing sighed, picked up the fragrant tea in front of him: "You can do it if you die once." ”
