It seemed that they made up their minds that wherever Ye Mengdie went, they would go there.Although my father's subordinates are loyal, their brains are like wooden stakes. Using this kind of tracking technique that even I will be aware of to deal with Ye Mengdie, I'm afraid it will be more dangerous than good, I sighed in my heart.

After returning, Fourth Master Feng sullenly called the manager of the shop to come into the mansion for a secret talk.When I went back to the courtyard, my brother-in-law stopped me and said, "I saw Zhu Danchen and three people guarding the Xingzi Bank. They are my third younger brother's subordinates. How did they get here?"

I shook off his hand and said, "How do I know? What are you asking me for?"

He said: "I look at them, they have clearly seen you, what's wrong with you?"

I raised my head and looked at him: "If you cause trouble, in your eyes, I will only cause trouble. If you hate me, go, go back to your Shaoshi Mountain, go back to your Fortress, go to herd cattle and sheep, and never talk to me again."

There was a smile in his dark eyes: "Are you still angry about what happened last night?" He was tall, I raised my head and barely reached his shoulder, but he looked down at me, and the distance disappeared suddenly. I can feel his breathing very clearly.

I suddenly felt out of breath, took a step back and said: "I want you to take care of it." Then I rushed into the room quickly and closed the door behind me.

Through the gauze on the window, I vaguely saw him walking back into his room.I took a few deep breaths, and since it was too abnormal just now, I decided not to continue to worry about whether he likes me or not.I walked to the table, took off the small bag I always wear on my body, took out my biphosphorus needle, found drawing paper, and picked up a pen.A few biphosphorus needles have rusted due to long-term inactivity. It is because my brother-in-law said that these things are heresy and did not ask me to use them. It seems that I need to find an iron shop on the street to sharpen them.

I picked up the brush and drew until the willow shoots on the moon. I picked up the drawn drawings and looked left and right, feeling very satisfied.After sitting all afternoon, my shoulders felt a little sore. I rubbed my shoulders and pushed open the door to the yard. The yard was pitch black, and neither my brother-in-law nor Lingyu seemed to be in the room.

I walked out, the ground was covered with frost, in the gazebo in the center of the garden, Fourth Master Feng was sitting alone drinking his own food.I walked over and asked, "Why are you drinking here alone?"

He looked at me, with an apology on his face, and said with a smile: "What happened today made the girl laugh."

I shook my head and said, "What she said is reasonable, and the people around her are all masters with strong influence. It's normal for you to lose."

He said: "But being speechless by others and fleeing in a hurry, no matter how you say it, it won't look good."

I said: "If you fight against someone who is stronger than you, you won't be ashamed if you lose."

He smiled at me: "If everyone thinks like a girl, there will be so many troubles in the world."

I sat down, raised my chin, and asked him, "Do you know that woman surnamed Ye very well?"

He glanced at me: "She is a famous figure in Xiangchu, have you never heard of her name?"

I shook my head and said, "You were injured by her broken star dart earlier, what happened?"

He poured me a glass of wine and said, "Three years ago, I was in Hengyang in the business of buying and selling grain, and I had a conflict with them because of a misunderstanding. I was wrong about this matter at first, but I didn't expect to encounter a mountain torrent. We were trapped in the mountains, I was the one who rescued her, and when we went back, the guards who greeted her mistakenly thought that I had captured her and tried to threaten her, so they fought with me. It was so easy, but she was injured by her subordinate Shen Jue with a broken star dart. Shen Jue originally wanted to kill me, but luckily she stopped me. Later, this matter spread to the local chamber of commerce. If you say you use force to coerce people to snatch business, then you won’t fight with me anymore, and we will live in peace after that, and I will make a fortune from it.” He looked at me: “Why does the girl like to hear such old things?”

I said, "Then what is her connection with Yunnan?"

He said: "Yunnan? The Ye family's business is spread all over the country, and it is normal for her to have connections with Yunnan."

I said: "Then is it related to the royal family of Dali Kingdom?"

He said: "I've never heard of this, what does the girl know?"

I said: "It's just that there are some rumors on the street, which floated into my ears."

He laughed and said, "How can you believe the rumors in the market?"

I was discouraged, lowered my eyes, and he said: "Uncle Xiao and Brother Lingyu seem to be going to Xijiang Tower, why don't you go with them?"

I looked at him with a smile on my face, but I wondered in my heart, when did Ling Yu, an ungrateful thing, join him?I had to say: "Who likes to be with him."

He said: "Men like to go to that kind of place, but the girl will lock them up."

I got up and said, "I'll go back first."

He laughed, I ignored him and walked towards the guest courtyard.Passed by the door but didn't go in, but climbed over the courtyard wall to the street.

After walking down a long street and through an alley, I tricked a scholar and made him fall into a ditch, and my mood finally improved.It's such a joy to simply play a prank on someone, and no one is watching you scrutinizingly by your side.I suddenly miss the old days, when I used to be alone, I could do whatever I wanted, except avoiding my master and senior fellows, I never cared about anyone else.

The old man with the white beard pushing the cart was yelling long and short at the entrance of the alley. I threw him a copper coin and took a candied haws from his hand.After crossing another street and an alley, I found myself in front of Xijiang Building.

The lights on the Xijiang Tower were still on, and there was no night atmosphere. I looked inside and saw the guests eating and drinking, making fun of them.There was a sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping behind me. I looked over and saw a person running towards this side quickly.Amid the chicken dealer's scolding, the man's face became clear, Ling Yu.I crossed my arms and called out to him in a drawn out voice.

He stopped all of a sudden, and before he could not restrain himself from leaning forward, the chicken feather on his shoulder fell to the ground.He was holding a large pack of medicine in his hand, I walked over and said, "What are you going to do?"

Seeing that it was me, he calmed down and said, "Senior Sister, I... just follow me."

The place he was going to was not far away, just around the corner of the street, there was a small inn there, this inn was very inconspicuous, if he didn't tell me, I would definitely walk over there.We pushed open the door, and the owner of the inn came up and said, "Little brother is back, go inside quickly."

This inn is not a few steps away from Xijiang Building, but compared with the brightly lit three-story building on the main street, it is very shabby, and even the owner of the inn looks shabby.I wonder what Lingyu is doing here.

After passing through a small courtyard, we entered the main room, he walked to the left, I had no choice but to follow, Fu Sigui was lying on the wooden bed behind the white gauze curtain, Zhu Danchen was sitting at the table with his arms hanging, and his brother-in-law was standing at the head of the bed , while Gu Ducheng sat by the bed to check on Fu Sigui's injuries.

I walked out from behind Lingyu and said, "What's wrong? Oh, you didn't hold your breath and went to trouble Ye Mengdie, did you? You were beaten up like this?"

I looked at Zhu Danchen's sad face, but still smiled, it's not that I have no sympathy, it's because his colorful face is very joyful.They looked at me reproachfully, and I said sincerely, "It's right to care about your brothers, but don't you really think about finding a towel to wipe your face first?"

I was ignored.

The brother-in-law asked Lingyu, "Is the medicine sold out?"

Ling Yu said: "Well, I went to the three pharmacies in the east, west and south of the city to buy them all."

Zhu Danchen said to Lingyu, "Thank you."

Ling Yu said: "It's okay, then I'll take it down and cook it first." I looked at his figure full of energy and went down to cook the medicine, and felt that he was hopeless.If Ding Chunqiu knew that he had taught such a disciple who is willing to help others and is willing to give, he might not be able to rest in peace if he smashed through the courtyard wall of Shaolin Temple.

Zhu Danchen stood up and said, "This time I have to thank Daxia Xiao for saving our brother."

The brother-in-law said: "How did you get involved with the people in Yefu?"

I said: "It's not that they got involved with the people of Ye Mansion, it's your good third brother who got involved with the people of Ye Mansion."

He looked at Zhu Danchen, Zhu Danchen had no choice but to tell him what he said to me the night before.After listening to Zhu Danchen's narration, he looked helpless, so he could only say: "Are you going to arrest her and bring her back to Dali?"

Zhu Danchen said: "We weren't sure it was her, but yesterday we saw her crucifying a swimming snake with leaves in the courtyard of Xingzi Bank. At first, we had seven points of suspicion about her, but now we have nine points. We went back to the person with the broken leg, brought him back to our place, and what he told us made us even more sure that it was her."

Gu Ducheng continued: "The person said that she does know martial arts, but she never takes action at ordinary times. She has a lot of influence. It is not difficult to infiltrate the palace if she wants to make connections in Dali. But what we brothers can't figure out is why she Want to assassinate our emperor? According to that humanism, the Ye family’s business has little contact with Dali, and she has never been to Dali before, and she has never been involved in disputes between Jianghu and Jianghu.”

I said, "It's also possible that she admires my little brother's reputation for elegance and wants to snatch him back as her husband."

I continue to be ignored.I have a kind heart and don’t care about them. I went to the bed and saw Fu Sigui’s injuries. He was indeed badly repaired. I said, “You guys don’t know how to keep a low profile. The whole city knows about such a big fight.” , why are you still staring at Ye Mengdie's tip?"

Gu Ducheng tucked up the quilt for Fu Sigui, and said: "It's all my fault for being too impulsive, I didn't expect their people to be so powerful."

I said: "The skills are not as good as people's, but you still want to be brave. How can you be the same as that fisherman?"

As soon as I said this, everyone in the room fell silent, and I realized that I had poked their pain again, so I had no choice but to stop talking.This group of people is big and rough, and they have been beaten in the rivers and lakes for so long, so their hearts are still so fragile, they must be taken care of carefully.

Recently, my heart has become softer, and I am especially able to perceive other people's emotions, bewitched by evil spirits, it seems that I have to grab some medicines and eat them.

After taking the medicine, Fu Sigui got better, and he was able to utter a complete sentence. What he said was that the man with the broken leg must know something deeper, and the interrogation of him should continue.

Zhu Danchen said: "Your injuries are too serious, let's rest here and recuperate, we'll go back and take care of the situation."

I wanted to see the follow-up of the person whose leg was broken. My brother-in-law said that he was with me, so Liu Gu Ducheng and Ling Yu stayed here, and Zhu Danchen led us to where they stayed in Hanyang.

It was also a small, clean courtyard. Apart from the three of them, several Dali guards also came along, but none of them were standing now.

Zhu Danchen strode into the house. Ye Lang, who was lying flat on the big bed, was out of breath. His face turned purple. His brother-in-law came over and pulled the clothes off his chest. There was a very clear palm print on his chest. , he should have died from a broken heart, obviously someone didn't want him to tell the secret of the Ye family.

This person is really pitiful, first his leg was broken, and then his heart was shattered.At this time, a person struggled to enter the room, panting with difficulty against the door, said: "It's a masked man, he is too fast, we can't stop him."
