Under the moonlight, Chen Chang's robe flutters in the breeze, like a crane dancing in the clouds, showing his beauty and elegance.
His face was like ancient porcelain, clear and hard, and his eyes shone with the light of wisdom.
The hanging black hair flutters gently in the breeze, reflecting the moonlight, making it even more chic and unruly.
When *** heard this, his face suddenly lit up with joy, he quickly bowed to Lou Qingyi and apologized, then turned around to find Chen Chang.
Zi Ling looked at ***'s leaving figure and couldn't help but said with some worry: "Miss, there seems to be something wrong with this guy."
Lou Qingyi bit her lips tightly, standing solemnly like a cold statue.
Zi Ling turned her head and when she saw this, she clenched her fists tightly and did not dare to make a sound.
Chen Chang was still standing where he was. Suddenly, Lou Qingyi said, "Where did you go tonight?"
Chen Chang said to ***: "Go and wait for me outside."
Looking towards the direction where *** was leaving, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
He took a deep breath and calmed down before replying: "It's nothing big, just some trivial matters in the restaurant that need to be dealt with. I already know."
Lou Qingyi's face changed slightly when he heard this, and Zi Ling also curled her lips. Wasn't this just telling lies with her eyes open.
Chen Chang's answer obviously did not dispel Lou Qingyi's doubts, but made her even more suspicious.
She looked at Chen Chang with a trace of doubt and uneasiness in her eyes: "What on earth is going on?"
Chen Chang hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head: "It's better that you don't know." There was a hint of firmness and determination in his tone.
Lou Qingyi felt even more confused and uneasy after hearing this.
She knows that Chen Chang has his own thoughts and decisions, but she also hopes that he can trust her and tell her more things.
"It's getting late, Miss, you'd better rest early!"
After saying that, Chen Chang turned around and walked out.
"Miss, he..."
Zi Ling was so angry that she stamped her feet.
Lou Qingyi turned around silently and walked towards her embroidery building.
Behind the window of the embroidered building, Xiao Yu'er secretly looked at the young lady in the courtyard, his two big eyes blinking.
Lou Qingyi glanced upstairs inadvertently. Xiao Yu'er's heart was pounding and she quickly retracted her head.
But she couldn't help the impulse in her heart and continued to look outside secretly.
The voice of Miss Cai talking to her uncle just now was not high, so she didn't hear it clearly, but seeing that she didn't seem very happy, she didn't know where her uncle had offended her.
While I was thinking wildly, I heard creaking footsteps on the stairs, followed by Ziling's voice.
"Xiao Yu'er, don't pretend to be asleep, get up quickly!"
The little fish was suddenly startled.
In the study, Chen Chang asked *** to sit down, but *** refused and just stood and replied, his face a little solemn.
"Chen Langjun, there is something I need to tell you." ***'s voice was slightly deep.
Chen Chang raised his head and looked at ***: "Tell me, what is it?"
*** took a deep breath and seemed to be calming down his emotions: "You asked me to keep an eye on Cui Qi. I didn't dare to neglect it for a moment. Cui Qi went to see Lou Langjun tonight, but when he came out, he asked
Cui Guanshi blocked it, and the two of them fought and even used knives. In the end, Cui Qi and Cui Guanshi were both killed."
Chen Chang was stunned, unable to believe what he heard for a moment. He stood up suddenly and looked at *** in shock: "What? How is this possible?"
***'s expression became more solemn: "It's absolutely true. I was hiding in the alley opposite Lou Mansion at that time. This incident also alerted the soldiers patrolling the city. Cui Qi was chopped off half of his arm by the soldiers because he resisted arrest.
He died of anger. Later, the junior high school student entered the Lou Mansion with his soldiers. I don’t know what kind of tacit agreement he had with Lou Shaokang, and finally took away the bodies of the two of them and several servants."
Chen Chang's heartbeat accelerated, and he felt an inexplicable fear.
Cui Qi and Cui Guanshi are both important figures in the Lou family. They are not good people. It is not an exaggeration to die unjustly. They died suddenly, and within a few days, they had interacted with him. They died violently.
If you investigate carefully, you might be able to ask questions about yourself.
After all, things developed too fast.
From the time he wrote to Lou Shaokang in the name of his wife, Chen Chang began to implement cunning schemes against the Cui brothers, but the speed of the progress was beyond his expectation.
In the final analysis, Cui Qi was too impatient.
There is no evidence that the letter written by his wife to Lou Shaokang was taken from his hand. He had already considered this when he contacted Cui Qi. Cui Qi was greedy for profit and would definitely take all the credit for himself.
On the body.
Lou Shaokang was at best suspicious and could not produce any solid evidence.
However, this must be guarded against.
Chen Chang took a bunch of copper coins from the cabinet and handed it to ***: "You have to work hard these days. You can go to Lou Mansion tomorrow to find out the news and see if you can find any clues. At the same time, I want to know
Where did Lou Shaokang go and who did he meet?"
*** repeatedly shied away, only talking about how to arrange things in the store. Chen Chang told him that there was no need to worry about the matters in the store, and that he would arrange it himself, so *** could just focus on Lou Shaokang.
"You must act secretly."
*** nodded, and then silently exited the study.
The moonlight is like water, shining through the window lattice and shining mottledly on the floor of the study, reflecting a tranquil and pale atmosphere.
Chen Chang was lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, thinking a lot.
The death of Cui Qi and Cui Guanshi was like a bomb detonating in Lou's house, setting off a storm.
This event is so important that Lou Shaokang will definitely go back to his wife to confirm the authenticity of the letter.
No matter whether he can find evidence or not, Madam's side will always be involved.
Lou Shaokang is not a fool, he will definitely use this opportunity to further target his wife.
But Madam, such a kind and innocent woman, was in danger because of this turmoil, and Chen Chang couldn't bear it.
No, we must find a way to remove Madam.
Chen Chang sat up, his eyes shining with determination.
He picked up the pen and quickly wrote down line after line on the paper. That was his plan.
He knew that this was not an easy task.
Lou Shaokang's power is incomparable to him. In his current status, he is no match for him.
But Chen Chang is not without any chance of winning. He has his advantages——
That is, Lou Shaokang will not regard himself as an evenly matched opponent. As long as Lou Shaokang despises him, he will definitely have a chance.
You must proceed with caution and make sure no mistakes are made at every step.
After thinking for a while, Chen Chang took out a stack of letter paper and began to write a letter.
Since he had already had the idea in his mind and finished it in one go, he waited patiently for the ink to dry completely, carefully picked up the letter paper, and put it into an envelope.
After doing all this, Chen sang to the moonlight outside the window, feeling very excited.
He knew that a gamble was about to begin, and that he would be integrated into the curtain of this era.
