Chapter 561 The Betrayal
The business is over.
The two of them stopped talking in secret and chatted about the trivial news about Di'an. The man surnamed Huang personally sent Xu Yuan out of the Dongqin Gate of the Secret Intelligence Headquarters.
As soon as he left the house, before he could say goodbye, the man surnamed Huang saw a purple-clothed woman with a gauze-covered face walking towards the door quickly through the snow. She was also holding a big bag she bought in Huaijiu Lane. Pack small bags.
Seeing this scene, the serious man surnamed Huang showed a smile on his serious face and cupped his fists in a salute:
“Sir, Mr. Huang is busy with official duties, so it is inconvenient to send more gifts.”
Xu Yuan smiled slightly and said half-jokingly:
"That's natural, but Mr. Huang needs to remind Xu Dutong to keep her word. This matter involves the Qin family, and I don't want to get too involved."
The big man surnamed Huang looked dumb and nodded lightly.
Seeing this, Xu Yuan bowed his hands in a graceful gesture:
“Farewell.”
ifier
Standing in front of the government office, the man surnamed Huang watched the carriage Xu Yuan and Bai Muxi were riding disappear at the end of the street, then turned around and walked slowly towards the government office.
As soon as he crossed the threshold of the Yamen, the man surnamed Huang caught a glimpse of a pony-tailed man wearing a purple official uniform waiting quietly from the corner of his eye.
"Okay, the young master gave this to you. You should have heard it just now, so I don't need to say more."
The Third Young Master’s actions gradually built up a nightmare in this girl’s heart.
"boom!"
Xu Mengxi lightly pursed her thin lips and whispered:
“Girl, don’t be too persistent. Even if Xu Changtian is not dead, what can you do to him now?”
Smiling and letting go of his hand, the man surnamed Huang continued to walk forward. As he walked, he said: "If you really want to investigate him, arrest the female family member next to him and interrogate them separately to see if their confessions are consistent." better?"
“He, like Xu Changtian, likes your temperament.”
Xu Mengxi stared at Rouge silently for a moment, shook his head and said:
“I don’t need this thing. Brother Huang should take it back and give it to his sister-in-law.”
The voice came, with a touch of complicated expectations:
The big man surnamed Huang shook his head slightly, his eyes slightly complicated.
However, she only heard the conversation inside the room using the formation, but she did not hear the conversation on the way to the study room.
The big man surnamed Huang thought for a while, chuckled and said:
"His reaction was natural, but there was one thing that showed some flaws."
Being exposed in person, Xu Mengxi's beautiful face looked shaky, but this was what she expected. It was strange that she couldn't notice it given Brother Huang's cultivation level.
Sighing lightly, the man named Huang gently persuaded:
“As far as I can tell, there is none for the time being.”
The streets of Di'an City are still as noisy as ever.
“I’m just curious. Brother Huang, what was the result of your voice transmission test?”
Nightmare.
Halfway through the words, Xu Mengxi couldn't hold back and punched the big man surnamed Huang in the waist. However, the latter stretched out his hand to catch it firmly, causing a weak wave of air to roll over the piles under the eaves. snow.
“I said no, so I won’t, let’s go first.”
ˆ “.”
ˆ “.”
Xu Mengxi was a little anxious, and her clear voice rose, attracting everyone's attention.
"Okay, okay, I was wrong for my brother's sake, but that young master just now also meant the same thing."
As he spoke, he reached into his arms and took out the box of rouge:
“Brother Huang, how are you doing?”
Xu Mengxi's beautiful eyes widened when she heard this, and she immediately said:
“What is it?”
The big man surnamed Huang knew that the woman in front of him was already angry at this moment. He glanced at the eyes around him and simply raised his hands to surrender:
The big man surnamed Huang slowly turned his eyes back, with a hint of funny endearment in his eyes. As he walked towards the Yameni, he replied in a calm tone:
"I can't do that. After all, the young master is my benefactor. It's too offensive to touch his female family just based on suspicion."
Xu Mengxi stamped his feet, a little angry:
“Brother Huang, what are you talking about! Why does that dude Xu Changtian like me?!”
“He said that in this muddy world, you are very dazzling.”
Speaking of this, he paused and smiled with tiger eyes:
The man named Huang pretended to think deeply for a moment and said softly:
"What did you say at the beginning? I have forgotten the details, but it seems that Xu Changtian thinks you are an indispensable critic in the dynasty. Doesn't this mean that he likes your temperament?"
Xu Mengxi took a few breaths, glared at the big man named Huang, and said:
“Are there no other questions besides this?”
Xu Mengxi slowly followed the man named Huang and whispered back:
“This is what people want.”
“Isn’t this what you told me when you came back before?”
“The point of what I said is what qualifications does Xu Changtian have to bring up this matter!”
"The sound array in my study room seemed to have been activated by someone just now. Someone should know what I said to him."
“Damn it, girl.”
Obviously, the slow spread of word of mouth among the people did not prevent the incident in Huaijiu Lane from affecting the neighborhoods near the imperial prison. However, the soldiers of the City Defense Department patrolling the streets were much stricter.
It is already past noon, the warm sun of late winter is high in the sky, and the white snow on both sides of the street gradually melts into dirty ice soaked in the soil.
After leaving the Secret Intelligence Headquarters, Xu Yuan did not think about rushing back to the Prime Minister's Mansion immediately.
Because he should be very eye-catching now.
Although the procedures in the Secret Investigation Department have been completed, it does not mean that no one will investigate him.
Although the second young master of the Qin family is a **** on the surface, not many people paid attention to his defeat by him at the same level. However, the soul mist he unfolded during the fight was too weird and profound, and many people should be concerned about it. Curious about his identity.
While eating, drinking and having fun along the market like an ordinary visitor to Beijing, he was waiting for someone from home to take him back.
After having lunch at the famous "Yuanweiju" in Di'an City, Xu Yuan returned to the carriage. While Xu Yuan wiped the remaining oil stains on the corners of his lips with a brocade handkerchief, he spoke to Bai Muxi and asked:
“Mu Xi, how many tails are following us now?”
Close the car door gently, and the hustle and bustle of the street is instantly cut off.
Bai Muxi glanced at the busy street outside through the car window and replied softly:
“Four.”
"Does it take just one meal to get one more meal?"
After checking the information with Xiaobai, Xu Yuan put down the brocade handkerchief, glanced out the window and chuckled: "I didn't expect that there would be so many people following us."
As he spoke, Xu Yuan changed the topic and whispered:
"But considering the time, everyone at home should have arrived. Let's continue walking along Feizi Street. After passing this street, we will walk back to the gathering place of the high-ranking officials. It will be much deserted there. These tails I will have more scruples, and I won’t be able to get so close to him again.”
"yes"
Xiaobai responded softly, thought for a moment, and asked hesitantly:
“Master, don’t you need me to remind them?”
“Reminder?” Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows.
Bai Muxi explained quickly:
"We have no grudges at all, so we found a spy to release Qi Ji and disperse them."
Xu Yuan smiled and shook his head:
“If the people who follow us are only masters, your method will be effective, but the problem is that it’s not just the masters who are following us.”
Bai Muxi’s eyebrows rose instantly:
“Youyuanchu?”
Xu Yuan tapped the car window lightly with his finger:
Although his spiritual vision is extremely penetrating, it is limited by his cultivation and the range is not very large, so he cannot detect the peepers hanging far behind.
I found out that Yuan Chu was so bold that he disguised himself as a businessman and sat opposite him in the snack shop just now.
"Just one?" Bai Muxi estimated in her mind.
Xu Yuan saw what Bai Muxi was thinking: "Don't cause unnecessary problems, the people in the family can take this into consideration." Yes.
Hearing this, Bai Muxi immediately lowered his eyes and responded, "But if you mobilize an army like this, you don't know whether it's the royal family or the clan alliance?"
The forces in Di'an City are complex, but there are only a few forces that can deploy the powerful Yuanchu in a short time.
Xu Yuan smiled when he heard this and said in a low voice:
“It could also be the Qin family. For a direct genius like Qin Weishu to carry out such a dangerous mission, it is unlikely that there will only be two great masters as escorts.”
Bai Muxi's bright eyes revealed a trace of doubt, and she whispered: "But Master, you almost killed Qin Weishu before. How could you not take action if you had a strong man from the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty accompanying you?"
Xu Yuan took a deep look at Bai Muxi and grinned:
“So that person’s cultivation may be more than Yuanchu.”
ˆ “.”
Fear came to her heart for a while, and Bai Muxi muttered in a low voice:
“Sir, are you mistaken that Qin Weishu’s Dantian was destroyed by you?”
"Maybe."
Xu Yuan shrugged and replied ambiguously: "This is just a guess. Maybe there is no such person at all, or maybe they have some way to rescue Qin Weishu."
After the words fell, neither of them said a word.
Xu Yuan was leaning on the soft couch and drinking a small drink with a relaxed expression, while Bai Muxi looked worried and alert around the carriage.
As expected, another accident occurred.
The Third Young Master will definitely have business matters to deal with after he returns home, not to mention that the idiot named Ran knows about the Young Master’s mysterious powers.
If something like this happened, the woman would definitely come to find the young master after finding out about it.
She knew that until she missed the opportunity on the carriage, everything tonight would probably turn into ashes.
With her red lips bitten by the tiger's teeth, Bai Muxi subconsciously glanced at the clothes and decorations that the young master had purchased for her.
But just this glance made her black pupils shrink instantly.
She saw a fair and slender jade hand opening the gift that the young master had sold to her.
Before he had time to think too much, Bai Muxi immediately became alert. While running the technique, he looked up along the jade hand.
As far as the eye can see, there is a lotus-rooted arm wrapped by translucent green silk sleeves, and a pair of unattainable plumpness.
With the sound of the gift box being opened, Bai Muxi saw the pair of green snake-lettered contact lenses.
Looking at each other for a moment,
She Xin’s colored contact lenses were slightly narrowed.
Bai Muxi.
Xiao Bai's body trembled, his skills dispersed, and he lowered his head without saying a word.
After hesitating for a moment, she tentatively reached out and poked the young master beside her as a reminder.
ˆ “.”
Xu Yuan, who was drinking wine and humming, suddenly felt movement on his legs, subconsciously turned his eyes, and then his pupils shrank.
Looking at each other for a moment,
Looking at the old lady who was opening the gift box with great interest, Xu Yuan was silent for a long time before smiling and saying:
“Sister, why didn’t you say anything when you came?”
Lou Ji glanced at Xu Yuan, her red lips slightly raised, and while spreading out the purple silk skirt in the gift box, she said with a slight smile:
“Don’t you want to see what caused the trouble for our third son?”
As he said that, Lou Ji threw the clothes to Bai Muxi and then reached out to take off one piece.
Very impolite, but can't be beaten.
Looking at Lou Ji's movements, Xu Yuan slowly sat up straight, calmly flicked his hand, put all the unopened gift boxes he bought into Xumijie, and said softly:
"This is not because of jealousy over Bai Muxi."
Lou Ji snorted coldly, with a hint of yin and yang:
“Of course I know it’s not because of her, because Zhou Quanping’s disciple Ma, yes, he can be a hero and save his sister. It seems that our Changtian cultivation has really become higher.”
Zhou Quanping, Chief of the Secret Investigation Department.
With that said, Lou Ji threw the half-opened gift box away, and Bai Muxi hurriedly caught it.
Lou Ji’s plump and slender legs intersected. She swayed with high-heeled amethyst boots between her feet, and her tone was quite cold:
"If you hadn't wandered around and bought her all these messy things, how could this kind of trouble have happened? I would have to make a special trip to pick you up, the young master."
Hearing this, Xu Yuan stood up, walked to Lou Ji and sat down, coughed lightly and replied:
“Sister, troubles will turn into troubles, but the result will always be good.”
As he spoke, Xu Yuan steered the topic on the right track:
"By the way, have you found out the purpose of Qin Weishu's imprisonment?"
"No."
Lou Ji crossed her arms and replied angrily: "This happened so suddenly. Where can I go to investigate?"
Xu Yuan smiled sarcastically:
“Didn’t we already start the arrangement before?”
"Has it been arranged, does it mean that it has been found out? The forces behind the Qin family are still in darkness up to now. I only know that they sent your lover with a charming soul and demon body to accompany your saint from the Supervisory Heaven Pavilion to the West Desert. While grabbing the desert goddess."
“No, you.”
“It’s not what it’s not?”
.”Xu Yuan.
Well, this old lady looks really angry.
But Xu Yuan also knew that the old lady Lou Ji was complaining about him taking risks.
Lying down on his side, reaching out to rub Lou Ji’s shoulders, Xu Yuan asked in a low voice:
"Sister, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. But in this matter, should we get Qin Weishu out of prison, or should we use the trick to investigate his purpose?"
Lou Ji slowly sat up straight, raised her arms and opened Xu Yuan's palms that he kept kneading on her shoulders, took a deep breath to calm down, and said solemnly:
"For the time being, we should find out in the prison. Since Qin Weishu took the initiative to go to jail, he must be prepared to deal with our backhand in advance. Before we find out what this backhand is, even if we pass him through Dali Temple, we will If he operates, he may cause trouble.
“Being able to fight with you for so long, this person must be very strong. Something that makes the Qin family willing to send such a legitimate son to take risks must be very important.”
As he spoke, Lou Ji shook his head slightly:
“However, superficial techniques still have to be used, otherwise unnecessary suspicion may be aroused.”
Hearing this, Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked softly:
“Leave this matter to the Chief of the Secret Investigation Department named Huang to investigate?”
Lou Ji nodded and half-squinted her eyes:
"Changtian, you...should have told him all the information you know?"
"Um."
Xu Yuan nodded and briefly explained the cause and effect of the matter.
After listening carefully, Lou Ji’s face relaxed slightly:
“That’s enough, Huang Shiwei is extremely capable. With your information, he can basically handle this matter on his own.”
ˆ “.”
Hearing such a high evaluation, Xu Yuan's mind flashed with that upright figure, and he asked with interest:
“Sister, how did you place a person like Huang Shiwei in the Secret Investigation Department? Was it the seed that my father sowed?”
Speaking of this matter, Lou Ji snorted with unknown meaning:
“He is not a tree species, but is slowly decaying bit by bit.
“For this person, we spent a lot of effort to forcibly bind him to us.”
He said,
Lou Ji seemed to have remembered some interesting things from the past, and glanced at Xu Yuan, her eyes smiling and narrowing into crescent moons:
"By the way, we asked Huang Shiwei to do the case of Xu Mengxi burying his benefactor with his own hands. Hehe. That man was too annoying and couldn't be assassinated, so we had to let him die in this way."
