The two of them followed the servants to the main hall, and the person waiting in the hall was the head of the Liu residence.

Mr. Liu is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a white face and beard, and a capable appearance.When he saw Ye Xingguan and You Jianqing, his expressions were quite eager. After a brief look, he didn't care about greetings, so he asked, "You two are named Ye? Are you from Yuhang?"

Ye Xingguan said: "My surname is Ye, from Yuhang."

Master Liu asked, "Are you a disciple of Hongye Villa in Yuhang?"

Ye Xingguan smiled, then reached out and lifted off the human skin mask on his face.

When Master Liu saw his face, he first showed a surprised expression, then he seemed to think of something, his face became more serious, and he asked: "Your Excellency is..."

Ye Xingguan said: "This is Ye Xingguan."

Master Liu had already guessed somewhat when he saw his face, but now he was overjoyed, and suddenly knelt down and shouted: "I beg Master Ye to save my son!"

Seeing him kneeling down, Ye Xingguan was surprised, but he raised his sleeves to help him up, and said: "Master Liu, don't worry, I'm here for this purpose."

After the three of them sat down at the table, Ye Xingguan asked about the specific circumstances of Mr. Liu's disappearance.

It is said that Ms. Liu was originally a well-known beauty in Suzhou City, but she was always sought after before she reached her age.Later, Mr. Liu selected a fiancé-in-law for her after thousands of choices, and made an appointment to marry her off when his daughter turned eighteen.

At this time, Miss Liu was only half a year away.

Master Liu cried and cried, regretting that he hadn't made up his mind before and married the girl off as soon as possible, so he encountered such a sudden disaster.Ye Xingguan listened for a while, at first he reluctantly listened to You Jianqing comforting him, but after listening for a long time, he inevitably became impatient.

Finally, he couldn't help interrupting the other party, and asked in a slightly stern tone: "Master Liu! Do you still want to get Miss Liu back!?"

Hearing the impatience in Ye Xingguan's tone, Master Liu finally put away his mournful face, wiped away his tears and said, "Think about it! I beg Master Ye to save my girl. I will be grateful to Ye Xingguan for the rest of my life." Owner's."

Ye Xingguan said: "Since you want to rescue your girl, just listen to me and do as I ask. If you catch the bandit as soon as possible, your girl will have the hope of getting out of trouble."

Mr. Liu was at a time when he was at a loss, and the government had not given him a clear explanation so far in solving the case. Ye Xingguan's reputation in Jiangnan Road was extremely prosperous. Although he was young, Mr. Liu was in a hurry to go to the doctor. Listen to what the other party wants, as long as the other party can give him an idea, a hope.

So after Ye Xingguan said this, Master Liu immediately agreed, and readily promised: "Master Ye, I will do what you say. As long as I can save my girl, I am willing to teach me to go bankrupt."

"It's not like going bankrupt." Ye Xingguan said, "I came here this time and deliberately disguised myself to avoid people knowing that I came to Suzhou City and arouse the vigilance of those bandits."

Master Liu asked, "What am I going to do?"

Ye Xingguan said: "Tomorrow morning, pick me up at the north gate of Zhoucheng. I will dress up differently and come here in a carriage with a willow logo. Then you can tell others that I am you coming from Beijing. The nephew of the Shijia family, and then arrange for me to live in your mansion. Then I will go wandering in the city during the day and show up in front of people more, and you... must ensure that my 'identity origin' is spread out."

Mr. Liu turned his mind a little, and understood the mystery of this, and couldn't help asking: "Isn't this... a bit too explicit?"

Ye Xingguan said coldly: "As soon as I show up in Suzhou City tomorrow, this matter must be blatant. How likely do you think it is that your daughter and a girl from another family will be robbed immediately, and this side will immediately show up to lure the thieves?" The target of the hand?"

"However, it doesn't matter if you show up or not. We even want him to know that I'm just a bait, or a bait released by your Liu family."

Master Liu listened, but showed a somewhat confused expression.

Seeing his confused appearance, Ye Xingguan thought for a while, and decided to explain his doubts kindly, and said, "Let me ask you, if we didn't come here, but you were desperate, would you find a way to find some bait and tricks?" Manpower, trying to lure that thief out?"

Master Liu said: "If the adults in the state capital have not made any progress in a few days, I have no choice but to think of something."

Ye Xingguan nodded, and asked: "I just ask where will you find people as bait? And where will you gather people?"

Master Liu thought for a while, and replied: "I still have some friends, and they are already helping me. If I want to do something, I still need their help..."

Ye Xingguan interrupted: "Do you think the recruited manpower is [-]% sure to keep the flower picker?"

Master Liu said: "I have to try it." After saying this, he immediately realized something.

Ye Xingguan said: "In my opinion, the thief has been stealing people for many days, but the government hasn't even seen his appearance. It's probably too much for the people you recruited to keep him. But that's fine, say Maybe that thief thinks the same way." He paused for a moment, and then continued, "This person commits crimes frequently when the government is heavily guarded, so he must be a bold and skilled person. So let him know that I am a bait It doesn't matter, as long as he doesn't connect you and me... Anyway, your Liu Mansion has nothing to do with Hongye Villa. He has successfully kidnapped Miss Liu once before in your mansion, so this time even if Knowing that you are heavily guarded, it is inevitable that you will take it lightly... What we want is for him to take it lightly."

Then he turned his head and said to Mr. Liu: "Next, you will treat me as the bait you specially found. If you should hire people or hire people, if you should recruit soldiers, then recruit soldiers. In short, you should make a posture to lure thieves into the trap. But also Don't be too arrogant, at least on the surface, you still have to act secretly."

Master Liu heard what he said, but he was convinced by Ye Xingguan and agreed with him.

Afterwards, Ye Xingguan put on his mask again, and quietly left the Liu Mansion. After wandering around Suzhou City, he made the appearance of leaving the city.

Shortly after leaving the city, the two changed their outfits and slipped back in.This time, they went straight to the Pavilion of Strange Objects under the name of Hongye Villa in Suzhou City.

After entering the Pavilion of Odd Objects, Ye Xingguan spoke a few words with the clerk, and the clerk took them into the backyard, and finally met the person in charge of the Pavilion of Odd Objects in Suzhou City, a man in his twenties, dressed in red woman.

The woman was dressed in red, but she was not considered beautiful, and there was a shallow scar at the corner of her left eyebrow, which disrupted the harmony of her entire face.

Her name is Xi Niang.

When Ye Xingguan saw Xi Niang, he asked, "Is everything ready?"

Xi Niang replied: "It's all ready. Is the owner going to start now?"

Ye Xingguan said: "Let's go and have a look first. Make all the preparations that need to be done, so as not to be careless tomorrow."

Xi Niang obediently complied, and then led Ye Xingguan all the way through the pavilions and pavilions in the atrium, to the small building at the end.

There were already several female envoys waiting there in the small building, all holding the things that Ye Xingguan told them to prepare.After Ye Xingguan entered the room, with their help, he changed his attire and combed his hair again, turning into a young man in a brocade robe with silver patterns on a white background and a scholar's bun.

After changing his clothes and combing his hair, the maid began to smear his face with rouge and powder, trying to make his appearance softer and harmless, at least not so sharp.

You Jianqing was watching with great interest.

It's just that after all the makeup was done, the moment Ye Xingguan opened his eyes again, Xi Niang knew that this make-up was actually a failure.

Because no matter how soft the makeup is, it can't cover up the divine light shining from the soul.

Ye Xingguan is such a person. He has been used to being in a high position since he was a child, and he is always accompanied by danger and hardship.The so-called not to be surprised by favor or humiliation, and the so-called not to be afraid of life and death, but they have already integrated into his flesh and blood, and they are in every move.

Under such circumstances, as long as the eyes meet, the person who looks at him will naturally know that this person is unusual.

Xi Niang also felt a headache about this.

Ordinary people will unconsciously adjust their expressions and attitudes according to the people they face. For example, Xi Niang herself will naturally take on a somewhat obedient attitude towards her owner, although she is actually domineering when getting along with her subordinates on weekdays. .

But Ye Xingguan...Xiniang even wondered if the owner of the villa had ever been a low-key in his life.

In the early years, it could be said that a newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, but as Ye Xingguan grew older, his aura and status continued to grow. Up to now, Ye Xingguan has traveled to the sea and entered Beijing. , has killed enemy bandits, fought against bandits... This is a person who dares to stand up to civil and military officials in the Golden Palace. Who can she expect the other party to humble in front of?

Xi Niang looked at Ye Xingguan left and right, and finally said: "This is not good. Owner, you have to change your eyes... If you look at people with this kind of eyes, then the flower pickers will probably die when they see you." Escape, how dare you do it?"

After hearing this, Ye Xingguan closed his eyes, thinking about how to make his eyes soft and harmless, and then opened them again.

This time, there was a three-point smile in his eyes.

Xi Niang suffocated for a moment, then sighed.

She had to admit that the owner's smile was beautiful, but his aloof attitude didn't change at all.His expression has nothing to do with "tenderness" at all, but a gesture of "I'm being pleased" or "come to please me", not knowing whether it should be an order or an announcement.

Xi Niang felt that it might be a little dangerous for her to continue to pick and choose - how could a subordinate be able to constantly pick and choose points for his master?But if Ye Xingguan was allowed to go out like this, even if the flower picker really showed up with lust, he might not have the guts to do it.

After all, Ye Xingguan's idea of ​​using his body as bait to lure the bandits was extremely unreliable.How many Ye Xingguans can there be in the entire Jiangnan Road?A person's demeanor and demeanor cannot be concealed by superficial makeup, especially a person who has been in a high position for a long time.

After thinking for a long time, Xi Niang took a deep breath and said, "I have an idea, I wonder if the owner would like to hear it?"

Ye Xingguan turned his face away, glanced at her sideways, and said, "Say!"

Then Xi Niang expressed her thoughts.

"The concubine feels that the owner of the villa is too imposing, and it is extremely difficult to pretend to be an ordinary person. Even if the external appearance is changed, the demeanor and posture are difficult to change. Besides, we are not sure whether the thief has seen the owner. It happened that the concubine I know that there is a blind lady in the Sui Mansion of Yancheng who is married to Miss Liu but has never been seen before..."

Then Ye Xingguan glanced at her lazily but menacingly, his eyes like sharp swords.

He asked, "You want me to dress up as a woman?"

Xi Niang's heart trembled, she hurriedly knelt down, and said: "The concubine has offended me, the master forgives me."

Ye Xingguan said, "Don't just kneel down. Keep talking."

Xi Niang looked at the expression in his eyes and found that there was no sign of anger or displeasure, so she stood up cautiously and said, "I think the owner's eyes are too sharp and energetic, and he looks like someone in a high position. Usually the four eyes meet, it is very difficult for someone not to value you. Instead of this, it is better to simply cover these eyes, and there is such a reason to find... When the owner sits in a wheelchair and is blindfolded, someone pushes you Let's go, as long as you move less, the chance of showing your flaws will be much smaller. Just be careful when you speak."

Ye Xingguan listened, but did not speak again.

Xi Niang was suddenly a little uneasy.

After a while, he turned his head to look at You Jianqing, but saw You Jianqing was staring at him intently, but did not speak or express his opinion.

In the end Ye Xingguan still said: "Since it is to save people, it is not impossible for me to pretend to be a woman..."

After hearing this, Xi Niang breathed a sigh of relief.

As a result, the corners of Ye Xingguan's mouth curled up slightly, and he warned coldly: "But when you do it, remember to take it easy."

How dare Xi Niang "not take it easy".Next, she asked the maids and servants to bring box after box of women's clothes, but in the end, she only dared to choose for Ye Xingguan a pair of ordinary clothes that were not much different from men's robes, but the color was softer. purple.

Even so, Xi Niang still matched Ye Xingguan with a beanie of the same color, in order to cover up the fact that he has no breasts.She didn't dare to say that the owner, I will find you two steamed buns, you can stuff them into your clothes as your breasts... It's not like you want to die.

Afterwards, the female envoy found a silk cloth and tied up Ye Xingguan's eyes, revealing only half of his jade-colored face as if carved out with meticulous care. Finally, most of Ye Xingguan's aura was locked in those pupils. .

Finally there is the hair.

Ye Xingguan's hair is not short, it's even long for a man, and it's black and soft, but it's a pity that it can't be compared with the girl's family anyway.In order to make his dress hide his sharp aura to the greatest extent, Xi Niang finally chose a disheveled hairstyle, and only added an inconspicuous low chignon on his head, which is more in line with the future The status of marrying a young girl can make Ye Xingguan's outline look softer and softer.

After everything was dressed up, Ye Xingguan, whose face was covered, couldn't see his specific appearance, so he asked You Jianqing: "...how is it?"

You Jianqing quietly watched the female envoy combing Ye Xingguan's hair and dressing up, and didn't say much all the time.

In You Jianqing's eyes, Ye Xingguan at this time is actually not that different from the one who wears a white underwear with long hair hanging down every night. After all, Xi Niang didn't dare to make drastic moves on Ye Xingguan's body, at most it was for him. He changed his clothes and changed his hairstyle.

You Jianqing even felt that the appearance of Ye Xingguan with long hair scattered and only a layer of underwear that he would see every night was even more amazing, because originally his eyes were as bright and frightening as the stars, but they were not as bright as stars if they were covered. beautiful.

But if you don't care about this point, Ye Xingguan's eyes will look interesting even if he is blindfolded.

So You Jianqing smiled and said, "It's beautiful."

At that moment, Ye Xingguan's expression froze.

Xi Niang suddenly felt that her owner was about to break out.

Sure enough, after a cold snort, she heard Ye Xingguan say coldly: "Who asked you this? I asked you if this can make people recognize me!"

There was a bit of displeasure in his tone, but he was not as angry as Xi Niang had expected... On the contrary, Xi Niang was a little surprised.

You Jianqing was not annoyed either, she still had a gentle voice and a soft tone, and followed his question and replied: "Of course I can recognize it. But if it's my parents or Xiyue, I probably wouldn't think about it anyway... As long as you don't speak."

After hearing this, Ye Xingguan was silent for a few breaths, as if he was adjusting the breath in his throat.When he spoke again, his voice became softer and clearer, and he asked, "How about this?"

He is still young, and his voice was originally clearer than You Jianqing's, but now he deliberately speaks in a false voice, although it is still a little hoarse than a normal daughter's, but it is enough to confuse most people.

You Jianqing was surprised: "You still have such ability?"

Obviously, in his opinion, this voice is already quite realistic.

After hearing this, Ye Xingguan said, "That's how it is." Then a little smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to Xi Niang in a narrow voice, "Drag the 'Mrs. I’ll be the guy who pushes the cart and armchair.”

After hearing this, Xi Niang hurriedly said to You Jianqing: "Madam, please follow me."

You Jianqing glanced at Ye Xingguan again, and was not angry at his teasing, but showed a conniving and helpless smile, and replied: "Okay."

The next day, Master Liu waited for a while at the gate of the city, and finally saw the carriage with the willow emblem.At first glance, this carriage is really no different from the carriage used by the Liu Mansion.

However, when he opened the car curtain and saw the scene inside, Master Liu was really stunned for a moment.

A wheelchair was parked in the middle of the car at this time, and the front and rear were fixed with wooden bars. In the wheelchair sat a woman in a purple dress with silk covering her eyes, revealing only half of her jade-like face.

Master Liu immediately wanted to ask, "Who is this!".

Then he was suddenly blessed, showing a tangled expression, and asked tentatively in a low voice: "...Villager Ye?"

But hearing the "blind girl"'s voice clear, she said quietly: "Uncle, you are called a human being."

Master Liu was suddenly confused.

Fortunately, at this time, a servant came up from behind and explained the current brand-new personality to Master Liu in a low voice, which made him suddenly realize.But this master is also a gossip, he endured and endured, and finally couldn't hold back and asked in a low voice: "... Is that the owner of Ye Zhuang?"

The servant heard his owner's cold snort coming from the sedan chair, and immediately corrected his expression, and said to Master Liu in a blunt tone: "That's the third lady of the Sui family, please don't remember it wrong, Master Liu."

Master Liu had no choice but to keep silent.

This morning, Master Liu took the car of "Miss Sui San" back home.After the carriage arrived at the door, the female envoy came up and lifted the curtain, removed the wooden strips fixed at the front and rear, and then dragged out a large piece of pedal from the bottom of the carriage, and asked a tall family member to hold the carriage together. Miss Sui San hugged her down.

During this process, Master Liu couldn't help but want to stare at "Miss Sui San", wanting to find out whether this is Master Ye in disguise.It's a pity that he is not familiar with Ye Xingguan enough, so he can't be sure if it's him.

But whether it is or not, there is no doubt that the blindfolded "Miss Sui San" looks a beauty.Even if he could only see half of his face, Master Liu felt that his precious daughter and another girl who had been taken away before were probably two points inferior to this "Miss Sui San".

He suddenly became a little more confident in luring the flower picker to appear.

In this way, on the second day, after many people knew about Miss Liu's accident, a blind but strikingly beautiful "Miss Sui San" came to Liu's residence.Although Mr. Liu didn't say it directly, many people guessed that this third Miss Sui was sent by the Sui Mansion to set up a bait to rescue Miss Liu.

And Miss Sui San's next behavior also vaguely fit everyone's guess.

Since the second day after arriving in the Liu Mansion, this "Miss Sui San" has been frequenting restaurants and teahouses.She is usually followed by two female messengers and a servant who is dedicated to pushing and carrying the wheelchair.

Miss Sui San seldom speaks, and she usually covers her eyes with a silk scarf. It is said that it is due to the sky blindness. Occasionally opening her gray eyes will scare people, so she almost never takes off the silk scarf.

But even if the envoy speaks frighteningly, when most people see her delicate and beautiful half face, most people will not really think how scary this lady's face is, but think that this lady may be very self-important. High, that's why I don't want others to see my flaws.

After a few days like this, Miss Sui San's sense of presence in Suzhou City became more and more intense.Every day when she goes out, someone will follow up with the same teahouse and restaurant specially to watch her.Among them, there are many young masters who take the initiative to show their favor.

At this point, Ye Xingguan felt that if the bandit was going to show up, it was about time.

He decided on the next dose of strong medicine.

In the past few days, Miss Sui San has been haunting teahouses and restaurants on a regular basis, but many people want to see his true face under the silk scarf.But on this day, a young woman aged eighteen or nineteen approached him furtively, and then chatted with him casually.

Most of the time, Ye Xingguan didn't answer, just smiled with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.Let the envoy ask and answer each other.

Until a certain moment when the maid was negligent, the woman suddenly reached out to take the silk scarf on Ye Xingguan's face.

When she shot, the distance and position were just right, and her movements were extremely light. It was obvious that she was not an ordinary person, but a quack who was known for her dexterity.It was too late when the handmaid reached out to stop her.
