Chapter Fifty-Second: Teaming Up to Capture Nanny Rong
The lanterns are on and the night is getting darker.
The lights were bright and feasting, and the bustling restaurants and shops were bustling with traffic and bustle. Xue Xichen and Wang Zier were lurking on the roof opposite Zuixian Tower. They had been quietly observing the guests coming in and out of Zuixian Tower.
"Zi'er, are you sure Aunt Rong is still inside Zuixian Tower?"
After waiting for so long, there was still no sign of Aunt Rong. Xue Xichen was getting a little impatient with the wait.
Wang Zi'er said with certainty: "I just made an excuse to go in and borrow the hut to observe the second floor carefully. Aunt Rong is indeed still in Zuixian Building and has not left. She has not left for a long time. She is probably discussing important matters with someone."[
"Did you see that person's face clearly?"
"The man happened to be sitting with his back to the stairs. I didn't dare to get closer for fear of being discovered by Grandma Rong. I could only observe him from a distance. He was dressed in a blue shirt and had an elegant temperament. He looked like a scholar."
"Is the back familiar?"
Wang Zi'er hesitated. "This... it's hard to judge... I seem to think I've seen it somewhere... and it seems..."
"Did you hear what they were talking about?"
"Because I was far away at that time. There was a lot of people in the lobby. The voices of the two of them were too low. I couldn't hear clearly what they said."
Xue Xichen pondered, thinking about the current situation. "It seems that we can only wait and wait."
The night was as cold as ice. I don't know when, a light snow started to fall. Little bits of white snow fell on Xue Xichen's hair and eyebrows. Xue Xichen blinked her eyes. She felt a little bit of coldness growing in her bones. She gradually became numb. All her limbs were broken. She couldn't help but shudder.
The night was getting colder and colder. She and Wang Zi'er had been waiting quietly in front of the Zuixian Tower for nearly two hours. Xue Xichen's whole body was stiff from the cold. Her hands and feet were numb. Her body was so cold that it seemed as if it no longer belonged to her. She didn't know if she would freeze to death on the eaves first if she kept waiting like this.
Do you want to get up and stretch your muscles?
Xue Xichen was worried about Xiao Jiujiu. Suddenly, Wang Zi'er beside her tugged on her sleeves. She lowered her voice and used her internal energy to transmit the message. "Look, Grandma Rong is out."
Xue Xichen immediately widened her eyes and followed Wang Zier's instructions. Sure enough, she saw Aunt Rong walking out of the gate of Zuixian Tower. She immediately woke up and stared at the direction of Aunt Rong's movement. She lowered her voice and said Finished the sentence, "Chasing."
The two moved quickly on the eaves. They followed the direction in which Grandma Rong left. They kept a certain distance and followed not too far or too close. They always paid attention to Grandma Rong's movements. They changed their tracking strategies and tried to stay safe. Not to be discovered by Grandma Rong.
The empty streets and alleys in the dead of night are gradually far away from the hustle and bustle of the market. The lights are gradually becoming scarcer. At midnight, every house is closed and has gone to bed. In the empty streets, except for the occasional sound of the gong played by the watchman, there is another person. Traces.
Grandma Rong was walking. She suddenly stopped and said in a cool voice, "Come out."
was discovered.
Xue Xichen was not surprised at all. With Grandma Rong's deep inner strength, she and Wang Zi'er had been following quietly for so long. It was not surprising that they would be discovered.
"Mother Rong, don't be sick."
Now that he has been discovered, there is no need to hide. Xue Xichen landed lightly from the eaves. He clasped his hands behind his back and stood elegantly. He smiled as warm as the spring breeze towards Aunt Rong.[
Wang Zi'er landed immediately after Xue Xichen. She put her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist and watched Grandma Rong warily.
Aunt Rong glanced at Wang Zi'er, and then fell on Xue Xichen, who had a smile like a flower and a detached air. She looked Xue Xichen up and down, pulled her lips and sneered. "Xue Mei Tong. Or... I should call you Xue Xichen."

Xue Xichen spread her hands and said: "Oh, grandma Rong, you can call me whatever you want. The name is just a code name. If you are happy, just call me Xue Meitong. If you are not happy, just call me
I am Xue Xichen.”
Aunt Rong looked at Xue Xichen with stern and cold eyes. She said grimly, "Xue Mei Tong. I can actually see that you are my biggest failure in this life."
"Oh my, I am so ashamed to be praised so highly by Aunt Rong." Even so, the happy expression on her face seemed to be overjoyed. Xue Xichen said happily, "Aunt Rong, these months
Where have you been hiding? I miss you so much. I heard about the massacre at Huamanlou. I have been worried about you for a long time. Now that I see you safe and well, I can finally feel at ease."
"Hmph. Xuemei Tong. You are really good at talking."
Your teeth are sharp. Your mouth is as sharp as ever.
Xue Xichen waved her hands cheerfully and said in a pretentious manner: "Where is it? Aunt Rong deserves the award. If you praise her like that, she will be embarrassed."
"Humph." Aunt Rong snorted coldly. She seriously despised Xue Xichen's pretentiousness. She said: "Xue Meitong, I know what you want to do. Even if you join forces with Feng Xiuya, you are not my opponent. Don't forget.
.I taught you martial arts."
"Have you forgotten? How dare we forget such an important thing?" Xue Xichen said with a playful smile. "But as the saying goes, a person is worse than a person who has learned a lesson. After such a long period of training, Sister Rong, you are How do you know? Our current martial arts skills are still not as good as yours."
"Hmph. Arrogant." Aunt Rong sneered disdainfully. "Little girl, you are overestimating your abilities. Look, I won't teach you a lesson today. You don't know how to write the word 'death'."
In an instant, murderous intent suddenly occurred.
Auntie Rong's lucky Dantian. Wang Zi'er's long sword was unsheathed. Xue Xichen responded with a calm and graceful face. "Ah, fighting and killing all day long hurts my feelings. Auntie Rong, long time no see. Let's talk about it first.
Let’s reminisce about old times.”
"Reminiscing about old times, huh." Aunt Rong replied coldly, "I can reminisce about old times with you."
"Yeah. Don't say that. It hurts your feelings."
Aunt Rong scolded her sternly, "Stop talking nonsense."
"Aunt Rong, you are so disrespectful." Xue Xichen looked disappointed and shook her head slowly. "Originally, I wanted to find a restaurant to sit down and treat Aunt Rong to a cup of tea. But Aunt Rong will drink it tonight.
After a night of tea, I must have had enough. In that case, let's stand here and talk. Although, standing on the cold street in this winter, it really gives people a feeling of "whooshing in the north wind"
The blowing cold feeling..."
Aunt Rong frowned. She seemed extremely impatient with Xue Xichen's trembling. "Xue Meitong, say what you have to say directly. Don't beat around the bush."
Let's get straight to the point. One sentence goes straight to the heart of Aunt Rong. "Aunt Rong, what is your relationship with Xiao Liuyue?"
Aunt Rong was stunned. She soon realized that she had just been seen by Xue Xichen in the teahouse. She said coldly: "Xue Meitong, you are too lenient."
"I should say I'm curious."
At that time, after Aunt Rong left the restaurant, Xue Xichen deliberately walked a few steps slowly and carefully observed the entrance of Zuixian Tower. She was shocked to find Xiao Liuyue walking out of the restaurant. Then she thought of what Wang Zi'er had just said about the elegant woman in green shirt. Young Master Pianpian, Xue Xichen immediately realized that the person Rong was meeting tonight was Xiao Liuyue. Since both Rong and Xiao Liuyue worked for Feng Biqing, why couldn't they meet at the palace? Why would they come to such a place? What about a teahouse that is too crowded and not suitable for conversation?[
