Chapter 6: Impermanence ()

Anyifang is close to the East City and is located in the prosperous area of ​​Chang'an. Although it was late, it still did not stop. When Xue Chongxun and his group passed through the South Street, he really felt like he was in a modern city. But as soon as the team entered the North Street, the hustle and bustle seemed to disappear in an instant. There were many relatives living here, and the lanterns shone brightly and brilliantly on the rich families. The slaves at the door were dressed brightly and had a stern look and were always scheming. Ordinary people would not come here.

Xue Chongxun’s Mist Zhai is diagonally opposite the Duke of Wei’s Mansion. It is a small courtyard. It used to be lived by some big-name visitors. Xue Chongxun asked the butler to buy it and decorate it into a villa for his own entertainment.

"Pick off the veil and let me see." After entering the Mongyunzhai, Xue Chongxun remembered the woman he had just saved. He could interrogate her origin while he had time to enjoy it, otherwise there would be tomorrow's event... However, I heard the woman's voice before, and it was very thick and hoarse. If she looked too annoying, wouldn't she feel depressed when she went in together?

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then obediently took the black veil off her face, but covered it with one palm between her eyebrows. The lanterns under the eaves were hung high, so that her eyes were hidden in the shadow of her palm, and she could not see clearly, only a thin lips and pointed chin.

The most noticeable thing is that her skin is white, really white, but the whiteness of the bloodless paper may not be very smooth.

"It's too bright, a little uncomfortable." The woman's voice was as deep as ever.

Xue Chongxun didn't say much and nodded: "Go in with me... and ask me to prepare the things in the wooden house."

Fang Yuzhong gently reminded him: "My husband, brothers are not convenient to go in." His meaning was to let this unknown woman get along with Xue Chongxun alone, which poses a safety hazard.

Xue Chongxun smiled dissatisfiedly, and did not say much. He waved to them, then walked straight to a wooden house in front of the courtyard, and said without looking back: "Come with me."

The woman looked around and the guards stood still. She took two steps and followed Xue Chongxun. The two entered the wooden house and closed the door. They saw that the wooden house was very small, without even windows, and the furnishings were very simple. There were only two hu beds with leather and a large wooden table. There was a large black stone on the floor next to the Hu bed, and a bucket full of clear water was placed next to the big stone. There was nothing else.

After a while, a slave with a two-ring head combed a pot of tea and placed it on the big table, then bowed his knees and lowered his eyebrows and said, "Wait, I'll make a fire below."

Xue Chongxun picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, picked up one cup and drank it all, "It's not about tasting tea. Drink more water first, otherwise drinking water later will be bad for the health."

The woman in black said, "Thank you, I'm not thirsty."

The room gradually became a little warmer. The woman in black looked at the black stone next to her twice and obviously felt that the heat was radiating from the stone.

"I saved you today, but we have never met before. Now you tell me what the origin, who is chasing you, and why you are chasing you. You know, don't lie, because I will be able to verify it soon."

The woman in black was silent for a while. Her eyelashes were long and her eyes were dark and deep, which reminded people of endless darkness.

"I don't have a surname. Others gave me a name called "Nu Wuchang". Brothers from the same clan usually call me Sanniang because I am the third orphan to join the Yuwen family."

"Yuwen Family?" Xue Chongxun immediately became interested. He paused with his hand holding the puppet for a moment, then poured half of the puppet of water on the black and red stone, and immediately let out a "sneer" and a large stream of white smoke rose.

"It is Yuwen Xiao, who is now the Wailang of the Ministry of Revenue. He was the one who spoke to his benefactor in the Gusi Lane just now. Langjun is an official, and maybe he also knows him?"

Xue Chongxun nodded and said, "Yes, I have met one or two times." Yuwen Xiao was not very familiar with him, but his daughter Yuwen Ji was an acquaintance. He couldn't help but ask the question he wanted to know: "It seems that the Yuwen family has an unknown side. Let's talk about what kind of person Yuwen Xiao is."

Sanniang said, "Yuwenxiao's lineage was originally a merchant who transported tea. He was the second son of the Yuwen family. Because he failed to inherit his family property, he was in a state of disgrace for a while. Later, he searched for some orphans and kidnapped them until he was a teenager and worked for him to do shameful things."
