When Su Yang returned to the hillside, Xue Bing had already put his arms around Lu Xiaofeng, and the two of them were sitting side by side on the hillside.
The hillside is full of flowers, the sunset is in the distance, and there are green mountains and clear water. It all looks so beautiful, but the most beautiful one is Xue Bing.
A girl who is about to get married is always more beautiful than usual, not to mention that the person she is going to marry is the person she has always liked.
"I have thought it through! Although I have always been afraid of settling down, I am even more afraid of watching her marry someone else." Lu Xiaofeng held Xue Bing's hand and nodded seriously, although the expression on her face was more or less
There was some reluctance, but more of it was a feeling of relief after making up my mind.
Su Yang smiled: "Then let me congratulate you first. Since you have decided, of course you should stay and spend more time with the bride. I don't think you need to interfere with the embroidery robber this time."
Lu Xiaofeng hesitated and did not answer immediately, but Xue Bing spoke first.
She stared into Lu Xiaofeng's eyes: "If I ask you not to go, even though you may not be willing in your heart, you will definitely agree, right?"
Lu Xiaofeng thought for a while and nodded: "Yes, since I am willing to marry you, I should make some sacrifices. If two people are together, if neither of them is willing to make sacrifices, it will be difficult to get along."
Xue Bing suddenly smiled. She leaned on Lu Xiaofeng's shoulder and said slowly: "Since you are willing to make sacrifices for me, why can't I?"
Lu Xiaofeng was stunned and wanted to say something, but Xue Bing covered his mouth and said: "You don't have to say anything, I will be here waiting for you to come back. From now on, I will not interfere in anything of yours. You
If you want to go out, go out, but I just hope that no matter where you are, you can remember that you already have a home, and there is a woman waiting for you in this home."
"I won't let you wait too long." Lu Xiaofeng excitedly held Xue Bing's hand.
"Okay, if we continue like this, someone will be embarrassed. You should leave quickly. I will wait for you to come back." Xue Bing blushed, pushed Lu Xiaofeng away, stood up from the grass, turned around and ran towards the valley.
.
Su Yang nodded secretly. This way, if Xue Bing stayed in the Xue family and did not get involved with the embroidery robbers, he would not die inexplicably like in the original plot.
Looking at Xue Bing's back, a hint of tenderness appeared on the corner of Lu Xiaofeng's mouth. He suddenly said: "Thank you for helping me make this decision."
"You don't need to thank me. If you want to thank me, thank yourself." Su Yang smiled and said, "You know better than anyone else that I will not really pursue her."
"That's why I want to thank you." Lu Xiaofeng said.
"Oh? Thank me for not pursuing her?"
"No, I want to thank you. You made me see a possibility that I had never thought of, that is, she will leave me one day. Even if I just think about this kind of thing for a moment, I feel like my heart is being torn out.
.”
"What now?"
Lu Xiaofeng waved her fist heavily. Her eyes shone and she said excitedly: "Now I just feel full of strength! I just want to catch that damn embroidery thief quickly and then come back to marry her. You have already asked Mrs. Xue clearly.
Where do the brocades and threads used by the Embroidery Thief come from?”
"You have asked clearly." Su Yang said, "But what's the point of us rushing now?"
"What do you mean?"
"The embroidery thief can easily embroider a blind man. He would not be so panicked that he would forget this piece of silk before leaving. So he must have deliberately left this clue for us to find. If we really went, what would happen?
Aren't we following his ideas? And I can guarantee that by the time we arrive, this shop will have been reduced to ashes. On the contrary, if we don't go, maybe the people in the shop can survive."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Do you have other ideas or clues?"
"Not to mention the ideas. There are only a few people who are suspicious now, or who may be related to the Embroidery Thief. Let's inquire and investigate one by one." Su Yang said.
"Who's the first one?"
"Jiang Chongwei, the general manager of the palace, carries the key to the palace's treasure house with him, and he was the one who discovered the embroidery thief."
"Is he suspected?" Lu Xiaofeng frowned and asked, "Could he team up with others to blind his eyes?"
Not everyone is full of flowers. A person like Jiang Chongwei who has held power for many years suddenly becomes blind. This is no different from killing him. If he is related to the Embroidery Thief, the price is too high.
A little bigger.
Su Yang smiled like a cunning fox: "Don't you understand the saying "Pick the soft persimmon and pinch it?" Check him first because he is the weakest among the suspects, like King Pingnan and the Crown Prince.
It is best not to touch a person of this identity without sufficient evidence. With a sword madman like Ye Gucheng, do not meet him easily unless absolutely necessary."
"But where is he? It is said that he is no longer the manager of the palace."
Of course, the dignified Pingnan Prince's Mansion would not use a blind man as its general manager.
"Among the tigresses in the arena, there is one named Jiang Qingxia. I believe you know her?"
Lu Xiaofeng blushed: "Why are you looking for her? What's the relationship between him and Jiang Chongwei? Besides, I'm the one getting married..."
"When a man is getting married, he should seize the time to catch up with his old sweetheart. Let's go and take me to meet the beautiful woman." Su Yang dragged Lu Xiaofeng and walked out of the mountain. Lu Xiaofeng looked reluctant and half pushed.
........
Jiang Qingxia is a Taoist nun.
Of course, Taoist nuns should be in Taoist temples, not in monk temples.
The door of the Taoist temple is ajar, and there is a small courtyard inside the door. There is a person sitting on a bamboo chair under the poplar tree in the courtyard.
The setting sun shines on the lonely white poplar, and also on his pale face. His nose is straight and his cheekbones are high. Everyone can see that he must be a very majestic and authoritative person. It's a pity that he has bright eyes.
The bright eyes have now turned into two dark holes, it is Jiang Chongwei.
Next to him stood a female Taoist nun in a purple shirt and white socks, with a purple jade hairpin in her black oily mane. Her face was also pale. Her eyes, as bright as autumn water, were full of melancholy and sadness. It seemed that
There is also an indescribable, sad and earthly beauty, just like the sunset on the horizon.
The sunset faded and the wind became colder. The cool breeze rustled the leaves on the poplar trees. Su Yang and Lu Xiaofeng pushed open the door and walked into the yard, but the female Taoist nun in purple never raised her head.
Her attention was on Jiang Chongwei from beginning to end, and her voice was as gentle as the night wind: "It's time for you to take medicine."
Jiang Chongwei heard the footsteps and said, "Lu Xiaofeng and Su Yang?"
"It's us." Lu Xiaofeng nodded and asked curiously: "How come you two are together?"
Jiang Chongwei said: "My surname is Jiang, and her surname is Jiang. We are brother and sister, and she is the host here."
Lu Xiaofeng gave Jiang Qingxia a strange look. After thinking for a while, she said, "I want to ask you. Apart from the points you have told Jin Jiuling about the cases in the palace treasury, have you found anything else suspicious?"
"
Jiang Chongwei: "No, even if there is, I won't say anything."
Lu Xiaofeng asked: "Why?"
Jiang Chongwei said: "Because I don't want you to find that person. I have never seen anyone with such terrible martial arts skills. Even if you find him, you will never be his opponent!"
Lu Xiaofeng wanted to ask again, but Jiang Qingxia suddenly said coldly: "His injury is not completely healed yet. I always don't want him to think about what happened that day again."
Jiang Chongwei forced a smile and said: "It doesn't matter. I will be fine soon."
"No other men are welcome here except you." Jiang Qingxia's voice was not too cold, but it revealed a touch of ruthlessness, just like the wind blowing in autumn. Although there was no biting chill, it was
There is no sense of retention or intimacy at all, and it is full of desolation.
Lu Xiaofeng wrinkled, secretly pulled Su Yang's sleeve, and said, "Then let's leave first. If you think of anything, you can tell Hua Manlou, he knows where to find me."
"Wait a minute!" Su Yang suddenly said: "Don't you remember that the embroidery thief also wore a pair of red shoes? Everyone can remember this feature, but you didn't mention it."
Jiang Chongwei said: "She originally wore a bright red cotton-padded jacket, like a bride about to get married. Wearing a pair of red shoes is not strange or suspicious, so I didn't mention it specifically."
"Okay, let's not mention this for now. You don't seem to have said that half a month before the palace was stolen, your sister came to see you and drank some wine." Su Yang said slowly: "It's from the treasure house.
Only you have the key, and if she wants to print your key on a mold, it won't be difficult."
Jiang Chongwei said: "She is my sister. It is very reasonable for her to come to celebrate my birthday. What's more, I was not blind at that time. I'm afraid there are not many people in the world who can do what you said without alarming me."
"Okay, then let me ask you again, are you really brother and sister?" Su Yang stared at Jiang Qingxia: "Is your surname really Jiang?"
Jiang Qingxia's face suddenly turned pale: "You...you...how did you know?"
Su Yang sighed: "I didn't want to know at first, but God wants me to know some things that I shouldn't know."
Jiang Chongwei said: "What else do you know?"
Su Yang said: "She is your unmarried wife."
Jiang Chongwei smiled bitterly and said: "It seems that there are many things that cannot be concealed."
"Yes, I say all this just to let you understand this." Su Yang said: "If this matter is really unfair in the end, just based on the relationship between you and the words I just said, it will be completely resolved."
The crime can be pinned on your heads, so if there is any secret, I advise you to tell it, so that you can live longer."
He looked at Lu Xiaofeng and said, "At least Lu Xiaofeng is a trustworthy person."
Jiang Chongwei was silent for a moment and was about to speak when Jiang Qingxia suddenly waved her hand coldly and said, "Are you done? If so, you can leave." (To be continued...)
