Yingyou took the case by surprise, and the result was that most of the guards were mobilized and started looking for people all over the city.

When the two brothers of the Xia family were still loving each other in the outer city, the gates of the inner city had been blocked, and the troops scattered and began to search in the outer city.It's just that Xia Yunqing jumped all the way across the roof with Cang Qiao on his back, but unexpectedly missed the blocked city gate.The sky is especially dark on the night of the new moon. The gates of the inner city are not as high as the gates of the big city. There are no towers.

Yingyou and Wusheng walked towards the alley behind Yixiangyuan, and Wusheng realized that Gu Xiao had disappeared at some point.He looked around, still wondering in his heart, and said to himself: Could it be that he went looking for it alone.That guy was very nervous about Xia Cangqiao, the young master.Wu Sheng really didn't think wrong, Gu Xiao felt restless while waiting in Yixiang Garden, and then Qin He and Wu Sheng got into a fight, and he slipped away from the door.Helplessly, Gu Xiaoxiao's character is not tall, and he is easily ignored when he is silent, but no one has noticed when he disappeared.

It is said that Thief Gu sneaked into the alley mentioned by the two Yushu sisters, and in the dark reached the door of a house deep in the alley.Before knocking on the door, he found that the door was open, slipped in cautiously, and when he reached the stone steps of the hall, he faintly heard someone talking inside.

He tiptoed to the door, bowed his body and listened earnestly with his ears pricked up.I heard a young man's voice inside say: "I've been discovered!"

Another voice said indifferently: "So what? Since you want to enter my Cold Moon Palace, sooner or later you have to draw a line with them."

Gu Xiao blinked, thinking what was going on.But the young man's voice was very familiar, but he didn't remember it for a while.

He was so bold that he sneaked under the window and leaned over the window frame to peek in. In fact, it was pitch black on all sides, and the room was not lit, so he couldn’t see anything, but he didn’t want him to come out of the window frame. A throwing knife with a cold light shot straight at it.

Before Gu Xiao could see what was going on, a small stone flew over from the slanted stab, and with a "dang", it split the flying knife in two and fell to the ground.

The people in the room suddenly said sharply: "Who is it!"

Gu Xiao was still in shock, and felt that the back of his neck was lifted.Turning his head, a pair of smiling eyes appeared in sight. The other party was covered with a black cloth under his eyes, and was wearing night clothes. All he could see was a pair of beautiful eyes bent like crescent moons.

Gu Xiao opened his mouth, and before he could say thank you, he was carried into the house.

The people in the room blew on a torch, and the dots of light made Gu Xiao see the two people in the room clearly.These two people are really surprising: the one who sounds familiar is Wu Kong, the third young master of the Wu family; the other is...

Gu Xiao was still being carried by someone, and pointed at the person without touching the ground: "It's you! The young master guessed right! The mysterious middleman is you!"

As he spoke, he added viciously: "Little thief!"

Who is that middleman?In fact, he was the one who tried to steal Xia Cangqiao's ring a few days ago but failed.It is understandable that Gu Xiao was very angry with him. If he hadn't provoked him that day, the whole street would not have caused Xia Cangqiao to criticize him angrily, and Cangqiao's attitude afterward had aroused new public outrage.

His young master... His young master is obviously a good person now!Helping Mr. Murong take the scapegoat without favor, helping Mr. Huaque explain to the prince without any reward, even when a strange woman who just met him asked him for help, he would not say a word to help.

Thinking about it this way, Gu Xiaoxiao became even more angry, kicking his legs in the air, "Where did you get the young masters?"

……

Hearing Gu Xiao's words, the man in black holding his hand was interested: "Oh? You said Xia Cangqiao knows the identity of the middleman?"

Gu Xiao snorted, "Naturally, Young Master Xia is so smart!"

The man in black looked at him with a smile, "Tell me, how did he know?"

Gu Xiao frowned, originally thought that the one who saved her was a good person, but now it seems that they are in the same group.So he folded his arms and turned his head—a look like you asked me to say it, but I didn't say it.

The man in black was not in a hurry, he put Gu Xiao on the ground, and turned around holding his shoulders.Gu Xiao squinted at him, her heart skipped a beat.

Although the man in black still had crooked eyebrows and looked like he was smiling, there was a frightening coldness in those eyes.

"If you don't tell me, I can kill you right now." He tightened his fingers holding Gu Xiao's shoulder slightly, Gu Xiaoyi hurt, and flattened his mouth aggrieved: "You saved me just now..."

The man in black said: "I don't want to kill innocent people if I can, so..." His tone rose slightly, which means - you can decide for yourself.

Gu Xiao immediately compromised without principle. Anyway, he was just talking about how he knew the identity of the little thief, and it was not a big deal.

"When the young master entered Yixiang Garden, he recognized the man dressed as a tea servant as the one who wanted to steal from him that day. He originally thought that the other party was just sneaking in to steal things, so he didn't think too much about it, but it happened later. In the murder case, General Ying counted the number of people well, but the young master knew that one person was missing." Gu Xiao said with pride on his face: "Although the young master is not good at reading, his observation skills are very good. I and the young master and When Qin and the girl met, I wondered why Qin and the girl's maid had a knife behind their waists."

"Oh?" The man in black raised his eyebrows, "How did you find out?"

Gu Xiao snorted, "If you can fool others, how can you fool me? The young master likes to play with these things, and the second young master is also a practicing family. Although the maid was wrapped in silk on the scabbard, it looked like a decoration, but when I saw it I could tell that the outline looked like a knife handle. Later, I told the young master about the tramp's appointment with the young master, and about the knife. Although the young master still had doubts, he knew that the real culprit was Qin He's maid. "

The man in black nodded, "Then why didn't he tell Yingyou?"

"What's the background here, and what's the reason? How do we know?" Gu Xiaodao: "The young master said that the affairs of the world should be ignored, and it might lead to death. He just wants to live a peaceful life."

Unexpectedly, when Yingyao asked for help later, the young master didn't want to intervene, but was dragged back anyway.Thinking of this, Gu Xiao couldn't help but her eyes turned red.

The man in black touched his chin, and looked up at the man standing opposite: "Yin Shan, you can't run away this time. They have caught you."

The man named Yin Shan frowned and said: "It doesn't matter, I have already sent the two of them out of the city, and I will take them out of the capital tomorrow and hand them directly to the Palace Master!"

The man in black suddenly smiled: "What a naive person! You know, the outer city is already full of Yingyou's elite soldiers, waiting for you to throw yourself into the trap, and it's hard for you to fly even if you have wings."

Yin Shan's face turned pale, he clenched his fist and said, "Then I'll kill them!"

The man in black pushed Gu Xiao away, and slowly walked in front of Yin Shan, with a terrifying murderous intent in his always bent eyebrows.

"Do you still want to protect yourself after messing things up? When will the Palace Master allow you to kill the two of them?"

Yin Shan took a step back, looking at the eyes of the man in black, his heart was beating violently, his scalp was numb, and his limbs were weak.

"You, what do you want to do..."

"I just want to clean up the matter before it becomes a big deal." He said, before Yin Shan could speak, he suddenly raised his hand, and there was a click in his cuff, and looking at Yin Shan again, the man's forehead was fixed in the middle. He shot a sleeve arrow, and the blood poured down immediately.

Wu Kong's face turned pale, and he stood beside him trembling.The man in black didn't even look at him, he took out a package of things wrapped in white paper from his sleeve and handed it to Gu Xiao.

"Take it back, your young master will need it. They have already returned to the inner city."

Gu Xiao held the paper bag in a daze, before saying anything, the other party had already disappeared - disappeared.

In the dark room, Wu Kong and Gu Xiao were left looking at each other.

……

After Xia Yunqing applied the old doctor's medicine to Shang Cang Qiao's eyes, she picked him up again and prepared to go back to Xia Mansion first.

It's just that as soon as he left the door, he saw that there were suddenly many soldiers and guards on the streets of the inner city, looking for something with lanterns, and the lights all over the street made the night seem like day.

Xia Yunqing stepped forward and grabbed a soldier with his back turned to him: "Are you the guards of General Ying?"

As soon as the man turned his head, he put the lantern in front of Xia Yunqing and immediately shouted: "I found it, I found it! General! I found it!"

It was only then that Xia Yunqing realized that these people were looking for him and Cang Qiao.

Back in the attic of Yixiangyuan, Yingyou and Wusheng rushed back from the outside, Gu Xiao followed behind, almost crying when they saw Xia Yunqing.

"Second Young Master!"

It turned out that not long after the man in black left, Yingyou and Wusheng arrived.Wu Kong broke through the window and escaped. Wu Sheng wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by General Ying.

"Young man, before he can figure it out and come back, even if you catch him, he will still have to escape if he finds a loophole."

Wu Sheng immediately let out a long sigh, only thinking that this time he would have no face to see the two brothers of the Xia family again.Young General Gu told Yingyou the whole story, and when he heard that the two had returned to the inner city, he asked someone to find them in the inner city.

When the three of them entered the room, they first saw Cang Qiao's blindfolded eyes.Gu Xiao was startled and hurriedly asked: "What's the matter?!"

Only then did Xia Yunqing talk about what happened to them, combined with what happened to Wu Sheng and Gu Xiao, the puzzle finally came together with a few corners, and a rough outline was seen.

"Since Yin Shan is dead, I can't ask about the intention of Hanyue Palace." Yingyou sat up with her robe lifted, and turned to look at Cang Qiao, "Are you sure your eyes are fine? How about calling some imperial doctors to see?"

Gu Xiao suddenly thought of the medicine bag, and quickly took it out: "That person gave it to you, and said that the young master needs it."

Yingyou took it over and looked at it, and found that it was white powdered medicine. He raised his eyes and looked at several people, "Do you dare to use it?"

Xia Yunqing was so worried that she didn't dare to use anything on Cang Qiao's eyes.I can't decide to pay attention for a while.

Wu Sheng said: "Otherwise, show it to the imperial doctor tomorrow, and use it if there is no problem with the medicine."

Others also thought it was such a method, and there was not much time before dawn, so they sat and waited for the sun to rise.

……

Taking advantage of this time, Yingyou organized the clues of the whole matter.

"So, Yin Shan wanted your ring from the beginning." He looked at the ring hanging on Cang Qiao's waist, "What's the origin of this?"

Cang Qiao sat down and didn't respond, Yingyou asked again, but the other party still didn't respond.Xia Yunqing leaned over to listen, and saw that Cang Qiao was breathing evenly, even snoring slightly.

He turned to look at Yingyou in embarrassment: "Brother fell asleep..."

Yingyou was taken aback, "Just sit like this?"

Xia Yunqing nodded, Yingyou was stunned for a while and then suddenly laughed, "This is also a masterpiece!"

Immediately Xia Yunqing helped answer Yingyou's question: "Since I can remember, this thing has always been on my eldest brother."

Yingyou was thoughtful, "You all smelled the smoke at the same time, why is only Cang Qiao blind?"

Xia Yunqing also shook her head, and Wu Sheng said, "Didn't you say that Cold Moon Palace only accepts women? Why is the middleman a man? And who is that man in black?"

Everyone turned their heads to look at Gu Xiao, Gu Xiao hurriedly waved his hands, "I don't know, he is covering his face."

It was going round and round, and things became more and more confusing.But at least one thing everyone was sure about was that Hanyue Palace wanted the two brothers of the Xia family, and the homeless men who couldn't keep them together had the same idea.

only……

Everyone looked suspiciously at the sleeping Cang Qiao: Do ​​they want two brothers, or... only Xia Cangqiao?
