Mi Xia Yao didn't go to the political secretary to find Pei Xingyuan in the end.

On the first night of the Moon Festival Night Market, there was a rather strange guest on the second floor of Xiaochun Breeze.

"On the third table, the guy who has been sniffing the nose pot in his hand, do you see it?"

Chen Xi frowned and said in a low voice to Mi Xia Yao.

There are three or four tables in the spacious lobby on the second floor, and each table is headed by a person who is skilled in gambling, and these people are all people that Chen Xi has brought from his grandfather with great thought and means.

At the third table, the man dressed in fine brocade and silk was sitting in the main seat, his face looking rather haggard, and the dark green under his eyes looked like a man who had not slept for several days.

But the decadent person at this table has energetic eyes, with a fine light and ruthlessness in his eyes, which is incompatible with his appearance.

"Lao Tzu bets five hundred taels! Flip over! ”

He scolded weakly, as if he didn't feel that he had enough aura, and slapped the table several times violently.

The noisy casino was unexpectedly silenced.

"It's the first time he's come back and laugh at the spring breeze, but I think there's something wrong with this person."

Chen Xi frowned, and said to Mi Xia Yao with a solemn and serious face.

"There are three major people who are not allowed to enter the casino, one is the person who has a generous gambler and a tight hand; the second is the small loss of gambling by extremely poor families; The third is that he has something that shouldn't be touched. ”

Mi Xia Yao observed the man's movements deeply, and she focused all her attention on the small nose pot in his hand, her eyes flashing slightly.

She had never been in contact with this kind of person before, and she didn't dare to be 100% sure, so she could only confirm to Chen Xi again and again: "What evidence do you have to determine that he is the third person 100%. ”

Chen Xi pursed his lips, "If you don't believe it, we can test it." ”

She hesitated for a moment, and finally turned her head to look at Chen Xi, although she didn't say anything, Chen Xi saw the meaning of acquiescence.

Immediately, Chen Xi glanced at the person sitting at table three, and the person sitting at the table first briefly suspended the gambling table.

After leaving the table for a short time, the irritability of the person holding the nose pot gradually manifested itself.

He scratched his hair in embarrassment and looked around the lobby, in which his gaze was like a dark poisonous snake, as if he had keenly discovered the direction of Mi Xia Yao.

She was not afraid to meet the other party's gaze.

Under the brief glance between the two, it was probably because Mi Xia Yao's gaze was too open, but he looked away weakly.

Finally, he opened his nose and took a sharp breath, and soon his originally gloomy face actually had a somewhat more pleasant and comfortable expression, which was completely different from his pale and haggard face.

This also made his whole expression look quite hideous.

Mi Xia Yao's brows furrowed fiercely, and she gradually had a bottom in her heart.

Duan Honglin's batch of goods in Duan's Tea House was still revealed in the end, and the person in front of him, coincidentally, was the person who bought the first batch of goods.

Seeing that he was becoming more and more depressed and dependent on the nose pot, Mi Xia Yao's eyes hesitated slightly.

She didn't dare to imagine that if this batch of goods finally flowed to the capital, there would be a lot of decay in the capital.

"Xia Yao, pay attention to how he reacts when he sees us."

Chen Xi came back, she stood beside Mi Xia Yao, and reminded her in a low voice.

The person at table 3 returned to the table, and when he was cleaning up the table, a pinch of powder deliberately left in his fingernails fell on the dark green tablecloth, which was particularly eye-catching.

The man was restless, and when he saw the man's seemingly deliberate and seemingly unintentional appearance, he didn't have time to think about how fake this action was.

He leaned forward and grabbed the other party's wrist.

"You know this too? How much do you have in your hand, I now have five thousand taels of bills on me, and I will take them. ”

He followed Chen Xi's instructions and calmly returned, "This guest, I don't know what you're talking about. ”

"I've seen it all, you have this shipment, don't you!?"

His vicious words at the beginning suddenly turned into supplication.

"Excuse me, did you read the wrong guest because it was too late? We really don't have what you said here, or do you need a cup of tea to take a break? ”

The man looked at him gloomily for a long time, Chen Xi was worried that the addict would hold a grudge against his own people, and she was about to walk up with the strong man to stop it.

Unexpectedly, the man stood up abruptly and threw all the money on the table.

"Lao Tzu has said that Lao Tzu has enough money!"

Seeing that he was going crazy was not a good sign. Mi Xia Yao turned his head and said a few words to Lan Ren, and then Lan Ren took his strong man brothers and respectfully invited this man who was crazy and dressed appropriately to laugh at the spring breeze.

Everyone else in the room looked at the kicked out with strange expressions, but soon no one took it to heart and returned to the thrill of gambling.

Mi Xia Yao and Chen Xi came to the small box, and their faces were heavy.

"We can't afford to sit still. It's just too tricky, and it's not something we can do. ”

Mi Xia Yao sighed helplessly, she pinched her eyebrows and felt a little tired.

Duan Honglin did this by the acquiescence of the three princes. Now that the three princes in the capital are in the limelight, if she wants to bring down Duan Honglin at this juncture, she is worried that the three princes will focus on Pei Xingyuan again.

"Then what should I do......" Chen Xi bit his lower lip.

She leaned on the Taishi chair with her hands on her chest, her eyebrows and eyes fell on the tea cup, and she immediately thought of Lin Wei she saw tonight.

I never thought that Lin Guogong was actually the backer behind the little concubine, and I never thought that Lin Wei would have a relationship with the little concubine.

Her mind was complicated, and for no apparent reason, fragmented memories flashed through her mind.

"I'll go back."

Chen Xi stood up and asked, "Do you want me to accompany you?" ”

Mi Xia Yao shook her head, "It's okay, you sit in the laughing spring breeze first, I'll come back later." ”

After that, Mi Xia Yao took Song Qiao and hurriedly returned to the other garden.

Inside the house, Mi Xiaobao had already been coaxed to sleep by Linglong, and Mi Xia Yao rummaged through the cabinets and found the bright yellow booklet again.

I only read the booklet a long time ago, and Mi Xia Yao only read the first half of the book, most of which talked about some skills and heavy work techniques such as steel making.

She didn't take that to heart at first.

As Mi Xia Yao opened the second half of the booklet, her eyes followed the pages of the past.

His expression gradually became solemn.

"I understand why Lin Wei went to great lengths to come to Linzhou City to find me after learning about it from the little concubine."

She put down the booklet in her hand, and her expression became more and more solemn.
