Today is not a good day, the sky has been dull, the cold wind carries huge amounts of water vapor, and dark clouds are coming one after another, but it has not rained yet.
After Du Xuan returned to Qingyue Pavilion, he learned that Shen Lie and Xia Zhaoyi were sleeping, so he and a group of people were waiting in the courtyard to study the crossbows he had brought back.
As time passed, Du Xuan raised his head and said, "Why hasn't Wu Shaoning returned yet, and Wei Dongyou is nowhere to be seen."
"Maybe it's far away," Ye Zheng said.
Du Xuan nodded, his eyes twitching.
He raised his hand and touched the corners of his eyes, feeling uneasy in his heart: "Will something happen?"
"Don't say that!" Ye Zheng said hurriedly.
Du Xuan immediately slapped himself in the mouth: "Oh no! I must be sleepy!"
During the interrogation last night, he barely slept a wink in the back office.
"How about you go to sleep, and when Wu Shaoning and Wei Dongyou come back, I'll call you."
Du Xuan shook his head: "Don't sleep!"
His eyes turned back to the crossbow in front of him, especially the small patterns on the crossbow.
The sky was getting darker and darker. Suddenly, there was a thunderbolt in the sky, which scared everyone in the courtyard and raised their heads.
"Thunder!" Ye Zheng said.
"It's time to put away the clothes." Du Xuan said.
"Sir," Ye Zheng laughed, "What time has it been? You are still in the mood to joke."
Qingyue Pavilion's clothes will be collected by servants.
Du Xuan also laughed: "Isn't this annoying?"
He stood up and tapped his fingers on the stone table. The more he thought about it, the tighter his chest became.
At this time, a servant came running from the outer courtyard: "Sir, someone is here! It's a dark and thin boy!"
"What for?!" Du Xuan asked hurriedly.
"I claim to be a favor to you and come to express my gratitude!"
Du Xuan frowned impatiently: "That's all, it's a small matter, let him answer it!"
"yes."
The servant left and came back soon.
"Sir, he said that he has something important to tell you."
"he?"
"right."
"How can we have time!" Ye Zheng shouted, "We haven't slept all night, and we are exhausted now!"
Du Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Let him come in."
"yes."
The servant came back soon, followed by Yu Xiaozhou.
After having a full meal last night and having a sweet dream, Yu Xiaozhou looks very good now.
As soon as he saw Du Xuan, Yu Xiaozhou walked over quickly: "Sir!"
Du Xuan didn't beat around the bush and said: "There is no need to say any unnecessary thanks. You said you have something important to say, what is it?"
Yu Xiaozhou had been preparing his words of thanks for a long time, but he couldn't say a word for a moment. After a pause, he said: "Sir... I went to pull the cart this morning and heard that the Yamen interrogated me all night?"
"how?"
"I heard that the person on trial is an extremely handsome man with long hair, but he is still a little sick..."
Du Xuan frowned: "What?"
"I heard that his surname is Shen?"
"Then what?"
"Are you... called Shen Xu?"
Du Xuan, who was looking impatient, immediately changed his expression.
The same goes for Ye Zheng and others next to him.
"Do you know Shen Xu?" Ye Zheng took a step forward and asked.
"Could it be that it's really him?" Yu Xiaozhou asked.
"How did you meet Shen Shu?" Du Xuan asked hurriedly.
Because there were government guards present, Wang Fengnian did not directly call him "Shen Shu" during the interrogation, but mostly used the four words "Master Shen".
"I..." Yu Xiaozhou pursed his lips, a little embarrassed to say, "To be honest, Shen Shu and I are from the same school."
Du Xuan and others were completely shocked: "What?!"
When he said this, he looked him up and down again.
Yu Xiaozhou scratched his head. The relationship may be complex, but it is also simple.
After thinking about it, he had to start from the beginning.
Shen's familiar masters and uncles are Fan Zhuyi, an old canoe sage, and Ji Hong, an old shoe repairman from Tongdu. They both came from the same master. Their surname was Yu, their name was Xinming, and they called themselves Xinming Lay Buddhists.
Shen Xu became a disciple of Fan Zhuyi very early on, because Shen Xu's biological mother Shi Yingying was a close relative of the layman Xinming.
In the same way, there are Lin Youqing and Shi Youqing, whose mother is Shi Yingying's biological sister. Yu Xiaozhou doesn't know their names and has never seen these sisters, but their names are so funny that he can't forget them. .
"Since you are the apprentice of an old shoe repairman, why did you get the opportunity to pull a cart in Hengxiang?" Ye Zheng didn't understand.
Yu Xiaozhou looked sad: "Because Lin Qingfeng has always disliked me..."
