I wish for a long time

Xue Yuning straightened up, fixed his eyes on Ye Jiu: "Boss Ye, do you know something?"

Hearing this, Ye Jiu didn't speak, took a deep breath, and drank in small sips with the straw in his mouth.

Xue Yuning's heart became more and more flustered. In her mind, Xue Manor at night, Song Chuxun's complicated and deep eyes flashed through her mind, as well as the sight she saw from afar in the Lanyin Pavilion on the day she left Yuncheng. Peachy figure.

Ye Jiu drank it clean, stood up, looked down at Xue Yuning, "Cuihua is a good girl, you can take care of yourself."

……

Leaving Xishuitang, Ye Jiu took a detour to Xiao's mansion, Xiao Lanfeng didn't react when he saw Ye Jiu.

"Did something happen?"

Ye Jiu came to the main hall side by side with him, and then he said, "There are a total of twelve workshops in the south of the city, among which are nine private workshops and three commercial workshops, right?"

Xiao Lanfeng was puzzled in his heart, but he also nodded, "That's right, but now that houses and shops are gradually intertwined, it can only be said that this is roughly the case."

Ye Jiuwen thought for a while, and said: "That's okay, recasting ten thousand taels of silver is not a trivial matter, Guo Wenxin can't put such a thing in a private house, the slag and soot produced in that way are too eye-catching and easily exposed .”

After hearing this, Xiao Lanfeng suddenly understood, he thought for a moment, and analyzed: "Then such molds can only be hidden in places where people come and go, where there is fire and smoke."

He had a flash of inspiration: "The most likely place is Fuchangfang, where restaurants are densely packed and there are piles of waste every day. It is the most difficult place in Kyoto to collect waste."

Ye Jiu hurriedly asked, "Where is Fuchangfang?"

"It's on the West Santiao Street above my house."

Ye Jiu squinted his eyes, as if the Fugu restaurant that Shao'er took her to last time was just outside Santiao Street.

She pondered for a while, then raised her head and said seriously: "Mo Ru, tomorrow you will use the excuse of checking the household registration and population to send people to search the house, and you must find the mold."

Xiao Lanfeng pointed to the door, "I can search now."

Ye Jiu shook his head: "No, it's getting late now, this kind of search is too obvious, and it will point the way to some people instead."

Xiao Lanfeng thought for a while, then nodded, "Okay, I'll go tomorrow."

Then he thought of another thing and asked, "The young master who is with you today is your old friend?"

Ye Jiu was stunned for a moment, bent the corners of his lips, and said, "So I met Brother Qingchi in Yuncheng, but I didn't expect to meet him again in Beijing."

Xiao Lanfeng let out an "oh" and asked again: "Then does he have a wife?"

Ye Jiu was inexplicably asked, "Huh? Wife?"

She snorted, "There are no wives, but there is one prostitute."

Yes, it was Song Chuxun who was taken advantage of.

Ye Jiu gritted his teeth in hatred, and suddenly came to his senses, looking at Xiao Lanfeng suspiciously, "Mo Ru, why are you asking these questions? Say hello to her."

Xiao Lanfeng looked at Ye Jiuchi's eyes, and waved his hands uncomfortably, "Ah, curious, just curious. You see Mr. Xue is a talented person, no matter what, he can match a girl from a rich family hahaha."

Seeing his unnatural expression, Ye Jiu curled his lips.Turning around and seeing that it was already dark outside, she said goodbye, "Okay, you can talk about kissing if you like, but my sweet wife can't wait, so I bid you goodbye."

"Walk slowly..."

Ye Jiu had already walked out of the room quickly before he finished delivering the words.

Xiao Lanfeng shook his head, then frowned, and muttered to himself: "Xue... Qing... Chi..."

……

Ye Jiu rushed all the way back to the mansion, but he didn't see that familiar figure in the dining hall, only Lian Qing's figure inside.

"Lianqing, where's the young lady?"

Lianqing opened the lid of the dish, and replied: "Young Madam is reading in the bamboo garden room, and I ordered my servants to wait for the young master to come back, and then serve you meals, so you don't have to wait for the young madam."

Ye Jiu frowned when he heard it, "How long has she been looking at it?"

"Since you left the house this morning, young master, the young lady has gone to the study."

"What about noon? Has she eaten yet?"

Lianqing was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Ye Jiu to ask Qi Shaoan if she had lunch, she thought for a while, "Young Madam should have lunch at home."

Ye Jiu heard that he took an empty plate next to him, and picked out some of Qi Shaoan's favorite dishes, "Lianqing, help me get a food box."

Lian Qing's hand that held rice, "Master?"

Ye Jiu smiled, "I'll eat in my room."

……

Bamboo garden, study room.

Qi Shao'an was leaning on the soft couch, the blue book in his hand looked like a scroll, and he was reading it with gusto.

Even Ye Jiu didn't respond when he came in.

It wasn't until Ye Jiu put the food box on the side of the couch and sat cross-legged across from her that Qi Shao'an belatedly said:

"Little rain, when is it?"

Wei Yu sat on a stool beside her, looked at Ye Jiu, then at Qi Shao'an, and could only say, "It's already Xu time."

Qi Shaoan still lowered his head, but frowned a little, "Has Ajiu not come back yet?"

Wei Yu looked at Ye Jiu who didn't intend to speak at all, and decided to shut up too.

Qi Shao'an didn't hear the echo for a long time, he felt a little strange, finally he was willing to look away from the book, but in the next second, he met a pair of resentful eyes.

"Ajiu! When did you come in?"

Qi Shaoan was surprised for a moment, his brows and eyes widened a little.Ye Jiu rested his chin on both hands, and glanced at the book in her hand: "Is it pretty?"

Qi Shaoan looked down at the collection of Wang Xie's poems in his hand, the corners of his lips curled up, like a girl waiting to be married, shyly, "It's beautiful."

Ye Jiu smiled slightly, "It looks good, or do I look good?"

Qi Shaoan was stunned for a moment, and finally understood, she leaned over and stroked Ye Jiu's face, "Of course..."

Ye Jiu finally stretched his smile.

"The book is beautiful."

Her smile dropped instantly.

Seeing Qi Shaoan lower his head again, and even turn the book leisurely, Ye Jiu couldn't bear it anymore: "Qi Shaoan!"

Qi Shaoan raised his head, raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly.

Ye Jiu's heaving chest collapsed again, she pouted and opened the food box: "Eat."

The smile on the corner of Qi Shaoan's lips grew bigger and bigger, she put down the book, and took the plate with her hand, "Okay."

Ye Jiu was a little taken aback when he saw how quickly she put down the collection of Laoshizi's poems, and forgot to let go of her hand for a while.

The two of them held their plates on one side, Qi Shaoan raised his eyebrows, "You were the one who didn't want me to read the book just now, and now you're not willing to let go?"

Ye Jiu reacted, "Oh, no... no, I just didn't expect you to be so happy."

In her impression, Qi Shao'an really loves books, and indeed to the point of forgetting to eat and sleep.Thinking about how she was in Yuncheng back then, she wished she could stay in the bookstore and study room every day. If she hadn't forced herself, she might not have even taken half a step out.

Qi Shaoan handed the chopsticks to Ye Jiu, eyebrows and eyes curved, "Of course I want to eat when I'm hungry."

Ye Jiu lowered his eyes and couldn't help nagging: "Shao'er, I won't stop you from loving books, but you have to eat and rest, so you don't get too tired, you know."

Qi Shaoan patted the back of her hand reassuringly, "Don't worry, I know it well."

Ye Jiu lost his temper, so he turned his head to Wei Yu and said, "In the future, if Miss forgets to eat and sleep like this again, you can just tie her up and feed me as well."

"Ajiu!"

Wei Yu glanced at Qi Shaoan's aggrieved eyes, and blissed happily, "Okay, Brother Ye."

Miss's stubborn temper can only be cured by Brother Ye.

God knows what a "blessing" job it is to persuade the lady to eat.

Do you know how to play the piano to a cow, and the lady is still a deaf cow.

Ye Jiu looked at Qi Shao'an's eyebrows slightly raised, his eyes were wet, and his small mouth was turned up. That aggrieved appearance really healed the "trauma" just now.

She raised the corners of her lips, picked up a chopstick of bamboo shoots and put them in Qi Shaoan's bowl, "Come, try my rice bowl."

Qi Shaoan looked down at the different dishes on the plate, and poked with his chopsticks.

It's not fragrant at all.

……

At about midnight, the candlelight flickered in the room, Qi Shaoan finally reluctantly put down the book.

She stretched, but she saw a white dumpling next to her out of the corner of her eye.

She turned her head, only to find that Ye Jiu had fallen asleep lying on the small table, still wearing a middle coat.

Qi Shao'an thought for a while, then realized that Ajiu could not wait for him to return to his room, so he quietly found him again.

There was warmth in her heart instantly, she stretched out her hand and pulled a sky blue robe, covering her body.

Ye Jiu slept soundly, and didn't intend to wake up at all.

Qi Shaoan gently sat beside her, looking at her peaceful sleeping face without blinking, as if he was a little more serious than reading a book just now.

Ye Jiu's eyelashes are very long, trembling with his breath, and his eyes are a little tired, presumably due to his exhaustion from going out early and coming back late these days.

Qi Shaoan felt a little distressed, and gently put his arms around Ye Jiu's back.

Ye Jiu seemed to have noticed something, and nudged Qi Shaoan slightly in his arms.

Seeing this, Qi Shao'an smiled with her thin lips, caressing her hair once in a while, her eyes full of tenderness.

"Boom boom boom——"

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, Qi Shao'an was startled, and quickly looked at Ye Jiu, seeing that she was still sleeping soundly, then softly replied: "What's the matter?"

"Miss, Shopkeeper Dong and Miss Xi Ning are asking to see you."

Qi Shao'an had a reaction in his mind, she knew Shopkeeper Dong, but what kind of girl was...

As soon as she frowned, Ye Jiuyou in her arms woke up, she rubbed her eyes, then shook her numb arm: "Well... what's wrong, Shao'er."

Seeing her ignorant look, Qi Shaoan straightened her robe for her, "The shopkeeper outside the door and a girl are looking for you."

Ye Jiu's mind was empty for three seconds before he realized that it should be Dong Fei and Xi Ning.

She nodded slowly, groping for a bed, "Okay, I'll go and have a look."

Looking at her flickering figure, Qi Shaoan pursed his lips, feeling a little sour in his heart.

After the sourness passed, for some reason, there was still a moment of emptiness for no reason.

……

"My lord, as you expected, the blacksmith shop was attacked at night."

Xi Ning held the sword in one hand and hung the other behind her back, nodding her head.

After Ye Jiu drank a cup of tea, he finally came to his senses, "How about the blacksmith?"

"The blacksmith is fine, he has been transferred to the restaurant."

Ye Jiu nodded, seeing the strange positions of the two, he suddenly frowned and asked, "Xining, are you injured?"

Xi Ning was dressed in a black robe, and it wasn't until Ye Jiu tilted his head that he saw a not-so-short wound on her arm.

Just as Xi Ning was about to open her mouth, Dong Fei snatched Bai, "That's right, my lord, sister Ning'er fought three with one, so she won't be injured."

He looked at Xi Ning's left arm nervously, he couldn't hide the distressed look in his eyes, and quickly took the palace fan to fan her.

Xi Ning only felt a chill in the wound, she couldn't help turning her head, and said in a calm voice, "Dong Fei, it's cold."

Dongfei's hands froze for a moment, not daring to breathe.

"Xi Ning, this is the best jade skin lotion, you should go back to Yungui Pavilion and rest first, it's been hard work."

Yungui Pavilion, located in the northeast corner of the mansion, is Baijian's residence for Sitong.The four entered the pavilion one after another and stayed together for more than ten years, but now Dongfei is in the main restaurant, Nanyuan and Beixiao are not in the residence at this time, only Xi Ning is still in the pavilion.

Xi Ning hesitated, Ye Jiu smiled knowingly, and pointed to Dong Fei, "Don't worry, he's here, you just go to rest."

Xi Ning finally took the ointment, "Yes." Then she turned and left.

"Okay, everyone is gone."

Ye Jiu knocked on the table, Dong Fei was willing to look back from the door.

"Will the three of them survive?"

Dongfei's little palace fan shook again, sighing while shaking, "There is poison hidden in the mouth, they are all dead. There are also two official servants, who have not been rescued."

Ye Jiu frowned, "It seems that they have been alarmed now, and the evidence must be found as soon as possible."

"Dong Fei, check the restaurants and workshops in Fuchang Fang that have frequent delivery of goods and frequent encounters with strange faces in the past ten days, no matter how big or small, the sooner the better!"

Dongfei cupped her hands, "Yes!"

After Dong Fei left, Ye Jiu felt a pain in his head as he watched the windows being blown by the wind.

She originally sent Xi Ning to protect her secretly, but she didn't expect that there would be a killer to silence her.

Her eyes became darker and darker, only a few of them went to the blacksmith shop, and the most likely one of them...

Ye Jiu's face turned cold, and he slowly clenched his teacup tightly.

So, did you still say it?

The author has something to say: the black figure is Cuihua...I cried...

Cuihua Cuihuafen is tender and tender with a small hair, I can't imagine how she looks in black hahaha.
