"Miss Xing, we came here from Master Jingyuan of Panxiang Temple. We mainly want to ask Miss Xing if she knows where Miss Miaoyu has gone with Master Qi and which temple in Beijing she is practicing in.
…”
Wang Wenyan did not beat around the bush, there is nothing to hide.
The plain-faced woman suddenly became alert, "Since you are coming from Master Jingyuan, didn't she tell you where Miaoyu went?"
Wang Wenyan shook his head, "Master Jingyuan doesn't know much about it. She only knows that her senior sister took Miaoyu to the north to travel and practice. The destination was Beijing, but she didn't know where exactly."
The plain-faced woman hesitated for a moment, "I wonder what you want to do with Miaoyu?"
Wang Wenyan thought for a moment, and then said slowly: "This involves other people's privacy. I'm afraid it's not convenient to tell outsiders, but please rest assured, Miss Xing, we are all people of status.
The yamen will know after asking, and we can also tell the girl clearly that we must be doing it for the best for Miss Miaoyu, otherwise Master Jingyuan would not be able to inform us of your situation..."
The plain-faced woman shook her head indifferently: "This is just your one-sided statement. Master Jingyuan is too indifferent to worldly affairs. It wouldn't be surprising if you want to coax something from her."
Wang Wenyan didn't expect this woman to be so smart and difficult to deal with. Although his guess was not true, her vigilance and carefulness were commendable.
"Then what does Miss Yi mean, do you want to go with us to see Master Jingyuan?"
"I have already said that Master Jingyuan may have been deceived by your preconceptions. Now that she is going with you, she may not believe what I said, so..."
Wang Wenyan smiled bitterly and continued: "So we must inform you of our intention to find Miss Miaoyu, and let you judge whether our intention is good or not before informing us of Miss Miaoyu's whereabouts?"
The woman without makeup may also feel that she is a little aggressive, but this concerns her best friend, so she cannot trust others easily, so she can only bite her lip and nod: "If the little lady misunderstood the husband afterwards, the little lady apologizes first.
"
This shrewd but humane girl was indeed extremely smart. Wang Wenyan’s eyes fell on the skinny man leaning listlessly on the firewood door over there, “Miss Xing, I also said before that this kind of thing involves a woman’s yin and yin.
It’s private, it’s not something we can say without permission. It’s not that I don’t believe the girl, so I ask the girl to understand. How about this..."
Seeing the man opposite him casually take out a huge ingot from his bag, and his father's eyes on the chaimen over there suddenly shone brightly, and his breathing became rapid. The plain-faced woman immediately became anxious, "Sir, if you want to act like this
, that little girl must swear to God that she will never say anything about Sister Miaoyu to her husband again. My father doesn’t know anything about Sister Miaoyu. No matter how many tricks you try, you will never succeed!"
Wang Wenyan took a deep breath. He really didn't expect the other party to be so vigilant and resourceful. As soon as he let out the secret, the other party immediately reacted and even used a poisonous oath to stop what he was doing.
That's fine. If the man knew about this situation, it wouldn't matter. But Wang Wenyan only needed a glance to know that the man might not really know what he wanted to ask about, so he could only give up.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Wang Wenyan thought for a moment and then said, "Well, Miss Xing, let's take a step to talk."
The plain-faced woman knew that the other party didn't trust her father, but she didn't even trust her father, let alone others.
Seeing his daughter follow him out of the courtyard, the skinny man spat angrily and wanted to follow her out to find out what was going on. However, he saw two other people who were supposed to be followers staring at him eagerly, obviously not letting him.
I can only give up if I follow him out.
“Ms.
After being slightly startled, the plain-faced woman immediately reacted, "I only know that Sister Miaoyu said that her father should be..., sir, did you mean that Sister Miaoyu's father was the Salt Envoy of the Huaihe River...?"
"That's right, Miss Xing, we know that your relationship with Miss Miaoyu is extraordinary. Master Jingyuan also specifically said this, so we will inform you of this situation, and please be sure to treat everyone accordingly."
Keep it secret. Of course, if the relationship between Miss Miaoyu and Mr. Lin is made public in the future, it will not matter, but it is not possible now, because it also involves the future marriage of Miss Miaoyu..."
Wang Wenyan simply told Xing Xiuyan that Lin Ruhai was seriously ill and hoped that Miaoyu could recognize her ancestor and return to her clan and return to her knees. She also got the consent of her biological mother, Master Jingyuan. Xing Xiuyan just listened silently and asked occasionally.
.
"This is the situation. If Miss Xing still has any questions, you can ask them and Wang will tell you everything." Wang Wenyan admired this woman who was born in a small family but is as pure as a white lotus in the water.
Very respectful too.
"There's nothing else. In fact, the little girl also knows that Sister Miaoyu must be from an official family, but she is not willing to mention her family background. She must have some unspeakable secrets, so the little girl never asked more, but she didn't expect that there would be such a thing.
We are in such a situation, but all the hardships are rewarded. Maybe Sister Miaoyu will be able to smile a little more in the future." Xing Xiuyan shook her head, "But Sister Miaoyu has a noble heart, so it is reasonable for you, including Lord Lin, to consider her like this, but
She may not want to accept it,..."
“Ms.
Stop her, but as a parent or as a child, you should do your part."
Wang Wenyan's patience and reasonableness finally made Xing Xiuyan fall silent. Wang Wenyan did not rush him. After a long time, Xing Xiuyan raised his head: "Mr. Wang, I believe you. If sister Miaoyu can find a good home, that is what the little girl hopes for."
, I wonder if Mr. Wang can tell Sister Miaoyu which noble family her future husband will be?"
Wang Wenyan smiled and shook his head, "Ms.
After that, Miss Xing will know, and maybe Miss Miaoyu will also take the initiative to tell her."
Xing Xiuyan nodded silently, "Sister Miaoyu once said that if she ends her travels with the master, she will stay temporarily at Muni Courtyard outside the west gate of the capital, but now I don't know if she is here or not."
After Wang Wenyan wrote it down, he smiled and thanked him, and then took out the ingot of gold ingot, but was flatly rejected by Xing Xiuyan. Wang Wenyan did not force himself and thanked him again and left.
Watching the group of people go away, Xing Xiuyan suddenly felt that the world had become much colder, and she subconsciously wrapped herself in a cotton-padded jacket.
If Sister Miaoyu finds a good home, that would be a good thing. But I wonder if Sister Miaoyu has entered a high school, will I be able to talk and talk about history with her as intimately as before?

Yuegang Turtle Island.
The waves were gently lapping at the cliff a hundred feet away. The black and towering cliff looked majestic and intimidating in the quiet night. Even the sentinel who was ten feet away felt the pressure of choosing and devouring people.
There were several flickering lights hanging under the tall beams, which allowed the people sitting against the wall to hide in the darkness, making it difficult to observe their facial expressions.
"We're all here, let's talk about how to do it?" A slightly impatient voice was as crisp as beads falling on an ice plate, but it also contained a bit of anger.
We are about to enter our Fujian territory, should we just sit here and wait for death?"
"What good idea do you have?" A somewhat contemptuous businessman emerged from the darkness, "Another assassination? Does it make sense? If we continue to argue like this, I won't come next time."
"Huang Butou, if you don't come, then we can only think that you are about to disembark?" A somewhat cold voice came from the northeast side, "Who doesn't know that you are now relying on the Tian family and have no fear?"
"Humph, you can also rely on the Xu family and see how they deal with you?" The voice called Huang Butou said angrily: "Of course I want to rely on them, but are they willing? Are the conditions they offer acceptable?
Otherwise, why would I come here after eating too much?"
"Now everyone is focused on fighting for Quanzhou or our side. I heard that Ningbo will most likely be put in the next step because there are changes in Japan, and Ningbo's maritime trade is mainly Japan, and the imperial court intends to let Deng
The Lai side was directly facing Japan, so the Ningbo side bombed the camp..."
"Don't listen to the confusing news. Those Ningbo people are deliberately trying to loosen the minds of us Fujian people. Maybe when the court announces it, Ningbo will win. Do you think those Zhejiang guys are all vegetarians in the court?
, and the Nanzhi group are all in the same party with them."
"...That's not necessarily the case. After all, the chief minister is still a Fujianese. If he doesn't speak up for us, then he won't dare to return to his hometown and enter the ancestral hall after he dies!"
"Hmph, who do you think you are? The Ye family has a great business, and it's your turn as a water rat to point fingers? I can kill more than ten of you with one thumb!"
"How are you doing? Who said last time that he would unite everyone to kowtow at the guild hall and ask for a way out? Is it useful? Have people ignored you? Damn!..."
…
Seeing that the topic was being discussed, the man sitting in the darkness at the southernmost end glanced at the other man who was less than a foot away from the opposite side and kept his head silent. He already made a decision in his heart.
