Chapter 145: Step by Step

"So what, come one and kill one, come two and kill a pair, I'm not afraid of them." Xuan Bao was full of confidence.

"Second brother, don't worry too much. You and I know what Xuan Bao is capable of." After Xiao Keren finished speaking, he turned to Xuan Bao, "But you also have to be careful. It's easy to hide from open guns and hard to defend against hidden arrows."

"Yes, I will be careful." Xuan Bao agreed obediently.

Afraid that the two brothers would be worried about Xuan Bao, they quickly changed the subject: "Second brother, did those things go well?"

"Smooth, very smooth, especially during this period. The boss is seriously ill and has no time to take care of himself. The people below are taking care of everything."

When Xiao Kexiao said this, there was excitement on his face and he continued: "Sure enough, people are shameless and invincible. Erfang borrowed money and items from our store before. I also went to Erfang's store to borrow money. I figured it was still a lot worse, but

I should have got about 90% of them back."

Xuan Bao turned to Xiao Keren. She didn't say a word, but she immediately understood what she was asking: "Don't worry, the matter entrusted to me has been taken care of."

"Okay, maybe it's just adding fuel to the fire." Xuan Bao said thoughtfully.

"What are you two talking about?" Xiao Kexiao asked.

"It's nothing. Since the house is in such chaos, third brother must stand by my mother's side and help her."

"Xuan Bao is right."

"It's getting late, second brother, let's go." Xiao Keren reminded.

After seeing the two brothers off, Dongxue stepped forward and said, "County Lord, go back and have a rest."

"Wait a minute, we haven't finished talking yet?"

Xuan Bao stood up and walked around the room: "I've eaten a bit too much, so I just need to take a few steps to eat."

Dongxue had just walked around the house a few times with Xuan Bao when she heard footsteps as Xiao Keren left and returned.

"Xuan Bao, tell me quickly. I deceived my second brother and sneaked back here."

"Third brother is really a worm in my stomach."

Xuan Bao gave Xiao Keren a thumbs up, and the brother and sister gathered together to discuss in lowered voices.

Xiao Keren left quickly. Xuan Bao summoned him, and four maids came in to serve him. However, the way Chun Hua and Qiu Yue looked at the little baby was very different from the past.

"Let's talk about it tomorrow." Xuan Bao yawned and got on the bed.

Qiuyue volunteered: "Today I will keep vigil for the county lord."

Dong Xue and Xia Yu both looked at Xuan Bao, and she nodded after thinking for a while.

"Remember, don't make a fuss about what you see or hear. Just obey the county master's orders in everything." Xia Yu repeatedly warned Qiu Yue before leaving.

Qiuyue nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, I will listen to the county master."

Xuan Bao was really tired, so he fell down and fell asleep peacefully.

This night was thrilling, and after listening to Xia Yu's description and knowing that Xuan Bao was very capable, Qiu Yue was so happy and excited that she couldn't sleep at all. She would tiptoe into the inner room from time to time to see if her master was covered with a quilt.

, do you need service?

It was already late at night when she heard the drumming sound, and Qiuyue felt her eyelids were a little heavy. Sleep came over her, and she sat on the footstool in front of Xuanbao's bed and fell asleep.

There was a slight sound, and Xuan Bao opened her eyes. She quickly sat up and listened carefully for the sound of the door knocking.

Xuan Bao got off the bed, glanced at Qiu Yue who was sleeping, and then walked toward the door.

"who?"

"I."

Hearing the familiar voice, Xuan Bao grinned. She was really surprised. She opened the door, and standing outside the door was Li Zhuo.

"Fifth uncle, come in quickly." Xuan Bao greeted, "I know you can't wait until tomorrow."

"County Lord." Qiuyue suddenly woke up and found no one on the bed, so she couldn't help but call out.

"I'm here." Xuan Bao turned around and replied.

Qiuyue rushed out, and when she saw a man in the room, she opened her mouth and wanted to scream, but her hands automatically covered her mouth.

"Did you change the maids?" Li Zhuo glanced at them, they were not the familiar Dong Xue and Xia Yu.

"It hasn't changed. It's always been the four of them. These are the autumn moon and the spring flowers. You rarely see them." Xuan Bao explained.

"Master Fifth Uncle." Qiuyue gathered her composure and recognized Li Zhuo.

Xuan Bao ordered: "Please serve fifth uncle a cup of hot tea."

"yes."

Qiuyue remembered Xia Yu's explanation that when she was with the county leader, she couldn't follow the rules and infer that anything could happen. She patted her heart and calmed down, and sure enough, an uninvited guest came to visit in the middle of the night.

"You asked that boy Ke Ren to send me a message and you were sure that I would help you with this?" Li Zhuo sat down and asked straight to the point.

Xuan Bao smiled and said, "If I don't help, my fifth uncle will still make this trip in the middle of the night?"

"Hmph, you little kid really has eight minds. I think all your brothers combined are not as smart as you."

"Thank you for the compliment, fifth uncle."

"Am I complimenting you?"

"I'll take it as a yes or no."

Xuan Bao's smug and unceremonious look made Li Zhuo laugh: "I can't help you, tell me quickly, and your third brother will also explain, what's going on?"

"I want my fifth uncle to come to Fang Rongru's house in disguise and see if he can force out the person behind the scenes." Xuan Bao said bluntly.

Li Zhuo nodded: "Your third brother has roughly told me, but even if I can disguise myself so that others can't recognize me, they may not let me come to their door, and even if they let me come, Fang Rongru may not believe it."

me."

"Haha, it depends on what identity you come to visit." Xuan Bao's eyes flashed with calculation.

"What do you mean by this?" Li Zhuo caught the little baby's thoughts, "Tell me what identity I can come to visit?"

Xuan Bao had already made plans: "Of course the fifth uncle will come as a disciple of the old monk."

"No." Li Zhuo shook his head repeatedly, "I will not use the name of an old monk to walk outside."

"Why, the old monk doesn't allow it?"

Li Zhuo was sober in the world: "Stop talking, the old monk has a great reputation. If people know that I am his disciple, then my good days will be over."

"Others are eager to have a relationship with the old monk, but you, a serious disciple, push it away completely." Xuan Bao sighed and his eyes rolled around, "Fortunately, I have already thought of another identity for you.

."

"What identity?"

"Master Jingkong's junior brother."

"Are you talking about the clear space in Tianlong Temple?" Li Zhuo naturally knew, "He has been in seclusion on the surface recently, but in fact he has been under house arrest."

Xuan Bao asked: "Is it what Abbot Yuanhui means or what the old monk means?"

"You seem to know more than me." Li Zhuo looked at the Xuan Bao thoughtfully and replied, "That's what the old monk meant."

"Then I understand."

Xuan Bao reacted very quickly and immediately guessed that Jingkong was punished for setting up the formation for Fang Rongru because of the last time he met the old monk.

Li Zhuo raised his eyebrows: "What do you know?"

"I know some irrelevant things." Xuan Bao didn't want to say more, after all, it was about other sects.
