The woman in the tea house brought several bowls of tea.
Xu Qinghuan took a sip and found that the tea had a really sweet taste, which seemed to be more refreshing than the fine tea they usually drank at home.
If you don’t experience hard work, you won’t be able to taste the real taste.
"What does Mr. Li want to say?"
Xu Qinghuan raised her eyes. After several days of running around, she was still in high spirits. She smiled slightly and picked up the tea to drink.
She took one sip to feel like she had tasted it, and then she really liked it after two or three sips. Then she raised the corners of her mouth slightly with a comfortable smile.
Seeing everything in front of him, Li Xu felt a familiar feeling flowing through his heart. He couldn't tell what it was, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Xu Qinghuan looked at Li Xu, whose eyes were a little confused. The person who was about to say a few words to her suddenly fell into his own thoughts.
"Master Li."
In the blink of an eye, Li Xu came back to his senses, and his palms were slightly sweaty, as if he had been seriously ill when he was a child and was lying alone in bed, a little scared and sad, and a feeling of resistance emerged from the bottom of his heart.
He didn't like his emotions to be influenced by others. He always controlled everything with one hand. The strange and unknown mood just now made him very uncomfortable.
Li Xu picked up the teacup and lowered his eyes, trying his best to recover immediately. After a few breaths, he raised his head again. Except that the sweat on his palms had not completely dried up, he looked no different from usual days.
Li Xu turned to look at the carriage that Master Xian was riding in: "Is Miss Xu sure about this matter?"
Xu Qinghuan shook his head: "No."
Li Xu said: "If we arrive in Beijing and there is no conclusive evidence, we will be in a dilemma."
Xu Qinghuan understood after hearing this: "Young Master Li means to let me go slower, and maybe I will wait for other evidence." At this point, she raised her head, "Young Master Li is going to check out the cases that Wang Yun has tried before, right?"
She didn't need him to speak carefully before she could understand.
Li Xu said: "If you intentionally commit a crime, you will definitely leave evidence. It will be more convincing if you can find clues from those cases."
"It's a good way to have both ends," Xu Qinghuan said, "Actually, Mr. Li also discovered something fishy in the inn a few days ago. He followed Wang Yun silently and wanted to see how things would develop.
Now that Wang Yun is being questioned, it becomes logical for Mr. Li to investigate the case. If the evidence is found, Wang Yun can be convicted, and if no evidence is found, it can be regarded as clearing Wang Yun's innocence."
Li Xu looked at Xu Qinghuan, so she would look at him like that in the inn.
He was right. She knew him very well and could guess what he would do in an instant.
But for some reason, when Miss Xu said these words, she looked at him with more alienation.
Li Xu said: "What does Miss Xu think is wrong?"
Xu Qinghuan shook his head: "On the contrary, I think it is a very safe way. This way, you will always be in an invincible position. Even if you make some mistakes, you can take a step back to protect yourself. There will not be too much danger."
In her previous life, she also admired Li Xu's approach very much. Li Xu could always weigh what was benefit and what was harm, and was as foolproof as possible, so it was his expedient for her to stay in Beijing.
His infallibility can only save him and his cause.
During those years in Beijing, she was always thinking about these things. Although she was very sad, she still had to make arrangements and compromises for his future.
There was no way she would step into this muddy water again.
Thinking of this, Xu Qinghuan stood up and said, "I hope Mr. Li goes well."
"Song Chengxuan is more dangerous," Li Xu said with a slight smile, "Miss Xu seems to have been very wary of me from the beginning."
"Master Li, just think that this is something you are born with," Xu Qinghuan said, "Some people are always alienated by nature, so it's no big deal."
Born to be alienated.
No other person would use such an excuse, and after saying these words, she simply left. When she reached the door, she thought of something and said to the woman in the tea room: "The tea is delicious. Come back if you have a chance."
"It's so annoying," Zhou Yue covered her heart, "They are always so cold and cold, as if we came here just to bite them."
As if to cater to Zhou Yue's words, the sound of Lord Xian gritting his teeth came from the carriage.
Li Xu took out a family letter from his arms. He caught up with him because of this letter. His father rescued a person in northern Xinjiang and sent him back to the capital. That person was Xu Changting, the younger brother of Marquis Anyi and her second uncle.
…
The capital was getting closer and closer, looking at the scenery around Guan Road, Mrs. Anyi Hou felt like returning home. What dissatisfied her was that it would be great if the Marquis could come to greet her.
"We will arrive at Shiliting tomorrow."
Xu Qinghuan has heard her mother say this three times today.
Ten Mile Pavilion.
The last bottom line left by the mother to the father was that if the father did not greet her at Shiliting, what he would see when he went back would be the cold face of his beloved wife.
"Mom, we will definitely see our father tomorrow, don't worry!" Xu Qinghuan helped Mrs. Anyihou to sit down by the bed.
"Don't make your father angry when you go back," Mrs. An Yihou told Xu Qing'an, "No matter what your father says, you should be taught with an open mind and don't talk back. The more he glares at you, the more you have to bow your head." She and Mr. Hou were angry, and Mr. Hou was angry.
This was the only way to make her feel better.
Xu Qing'an touched his knees. Fortunately, his mother didn't ask him to kneel down. His knees were not as strong as his father's. When he was a child, he once again saw his father half-kneeling in his mother's room begging for mercy. The scene was indescribable... It made people feel comfortable.
.
After asking their mother to rest, Xu Qinghuan and Xu Qingan walked out of the door.
There is a Taoist with a fairy-like style in the lobby of the inn.
Zhang Zhenren had a smile on his face: "Girl, little friend, it's been a long time no see!" He pointed to a table of food and wine, "My little friend, would you like to have a couple of drinks too."
Before Xu Qing'an could say anything, the fat bird in Feng Chu's arms had already spread its wings and flew towards Zhenren Zhang with "ah" and "ah" sounds. Zhang Zhenren immediately covered his head to avoid it, and the unpredictable appearance just now was gone.
Feng Chu watched it with gusto.
Xu Qinghuan told Feng Chu to take care of the fat bird and walked back to his house.
After a while, I heard Xu Qing'an say: "Sister, someone is here."
After Xu Qinghuan responded, the door opened and Song Chengxuan stood there.
"Hey," Xu Qinghuan said, "Master Song has not been detained by the Ministry of War yet."
She spoke very casually, and he answered cheerfully.
"It looks like it will take a few more days."
Xu Qinghuan couldn't help but smile. She raised her head and saw the light flashing in his eyes. It seemed that he was in a good mood and had gained something.
Xu Qinghuan was a little curious: "Have you found someone?"
"almost."
Perhaps it was because the case had finally made progress, Song Chengxuan seemed very relaxed: "What about you? Have you thought of a way to get Mr. Xian to speak."
She smiled and said nothing, obviously letting him speak first.
Just as Song Chengxuan was about to speak, he heard Feng Chu's voice coming from outside the door.
