This news did not make Lu Chengfeng lose his composure in any way.

Her eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and she stared quietly outside the hall. Snowflakes were floating between the sky and the earth. It was clear that there was no way back, but it seemed that she had found a place to fall.

Lu Chengfeng's eyes hesitated for a moment.

It's strange that her mother has not liked her since she was a child. She likes her eldest sister, Jinnian, and even her concubine, but she rarely smiles at her.

Mother.

She repeatedly took apart this word and analyzed it stroke by stroke, but her heart became colder and colder.

Han Shushan is still waiting for her response.

Lu Chengfeng felt cold all over his body: "I will investigate what you said today."

Han Shushan said: "...The Immortal Grass?"

Lu Chengfeng's tone was light: "When did I promise to give it to you?"

Han Shushan's eyes were as cold as frost and snow: "Are you kidding me?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "So what if I'm playing tricks on you?"

Han Shushan gritted his teeth: "What do you want?"

Lu Chengfeng had put away all her emotions, and she turned back to the flawless person with a somewhat nonchalant smile: "What should I do? This is a good question. I haven't thought of it yet."

Han Shushan looked directly at him with cold eyes.

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said: "Do something for me first. Xie Cen's husband, Ji Li, is now living outside the suburbs of Beijing. I want his background, purpose of coming to Beijing, and the people behind him."

Han Shushan frowned: "Since he is Xie Cen's teacher, he is not from the Xie family?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "If you are from the Xie family, why should I let you make this trip?"

Lu Chengfeng stood up and smiled: "Since you came to the door, you should know what to do. When you show enough sincerity, then we can sit down and have a good talk about the medicinal strains."

Lu Chengfeng was determined that he needed this medicine. He had been searching for it for many years according to Han Shushan's methods but found nothing, so he couldn't easily give it to him. Making the best use of everything was Lu Chengfeng's consistent aim.

Han Shushan knew this, but he was still forced to bow his head.

After Han Shushan went out, Lu Chengfeng stood alone in the hall for a long time, until Qing Feng behind him called her with a worried tone: "...Master."

He waited on one side the whole time and listened to the entire conversation between the two.

Lu Chengfeng turned around as if he had just woken up from a dream, with an indifferent look on his face: "The New Year is about to come, and there will be more wars in Subei in the spring after the new year. When chaos breaks out again, the emperor will definitely not keep me in Yanjing anymore. I will definitely come back."

You want to go back, but you can’t sit still and wait for death.”

Qing Feng understood and said: "I will go back first to find out the current situation in Subei."

Lu Chengfeng nodded: "Not only to explore, but also to find out clearly. Now the military discipline in Subei is in chaos, and the five cities are doing their own thing. If this continues, a bunch of wild ambitions will be raised, and the current situation between the government and the public is unclear, I'm afraid someone will want to

To inspire rebellion."

Qing Feng frowned and said, "I'll leave immediately."

Lu Chengfeng said: "Don't worry, wait until the snow stops before leaving."

Qing Feng nodded and took down the two cups of cold tea.

Lu Chengfeng turned around the hall wall, and behind it, Xie Jiuxiao stood at the door of the back hall with an unclear expression.

The sound of wind and snow outside the hall covered his footsteps, and he didn't know when the person came.

Lu Chengfeng said: "Isn't it cold?"

Xie Jiuxiao was not wearing a cloak, and was only wearing a thin white robe. The dark patterns on the clothes were exquisitely stitched. He always wore this unobtrusive color.

Xie Jiuxiao said: "It's not cold."

He obviously heard it, but it was unknown how much Lu Chengfeng heard: "Go inside first."

Xie Jiuxiao followed Lu Chengfeng into the room.

Lu Chengfeng sat next to the stove. It was not cold in the room. She stretched out her hand to warm the fire and said, "Sit here, I have something to say."

Xie Jiuxiao sat down next to her.

Lu Chengfeng thought about it for a while and then said calmly: "Tell me what you heard first, Ji Li."

Lu Chengfeng's eyes fell on the hot coals: "Speaking of this person, I have to mention the Fan family's account book. You are smart. Even if you are not sure at the beginning, you should have guessed when Fan Jie compromised with me later."

Xie Jiuxiao said without emotion: "The account book of the Fan family is in your hands."

Lu Chengfeng said: "The fact that I was able to get this account book in the first place has something to do with your husband Ji Li. He is also looking for this account book, but as a commoner, what does he want with this account book? It's nothing more than this.

There is someone behind the scenes who gave instructions.”

Lu Chengfeng smiled slightly and his eyes were cold: "Or maybe he wants to drag Xie Fan and his family into trouble together."

Xie Jiuxiao's jaw tightened: "Yes. Even Han Shushan thinks that since Ji Li is my husband, he is probably a member of the Xie family. Even if he is not, if the account books are found from the Xie Mansion, the Xie family will not be able to argue. Okay

A good strategy and a good means!"

Lu Chengfeng said: "It's a pity that we couldn't do it, and the person behind this person is very hidden. There has been no movement since Fan Jie was promoted. We need to find him. Instead of us going to alert the snake, it is better to let Han Shushan come. He is

After many years in Jinyiwei, if you really want to check someone's family background, you can do it more easily than me."

Xie Jiuxiao slowly revealed his sharp eyes.

Lu Chengfeng seemed to feel comfortable. She retracted her hand and leaned back on the chair. Her usual posture, natural arrogance, and the carelessness of having everything under control: "Let's talk about something else."

Xie Jiuxiao raised his eyes to look at her.

"What's going on with you and your elder brother?"

Xie Jiuxiao pursed her lips slightly, not surprised that she was so straightforward, and said: "He is right. My eldest brother and I are not from the same mother. My eldest brother was brought home by my father when I was born. At that time, he

My mother was seriously ill and could no longer take care of my eldest brother. Because of this, my father was severely punished by my grandfather. At that time, my mother had just given birth to me. After hearing about this, she had no choice but to accept me, but she eventually died of depression."

Xie Jiuxiao had not thought of this incident for a long time, but he could not say it today. He lowered his head unconsciously: "...because of this incident, my grandfather and father had a quarrel for many days. In the end, my father stayed away from Yanjing and has not returned to Yanjing to this day."

Stop by home."

Lu Chengfeng didn't expect that his life experience would be like this, so he remained silent for a while.

Xie Jiuxiao was silent for a while, then whispered: "...Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "What else do you want me to ask?"

Xie Jiuxiao gritted her teeth: "You said Ji Li said about the Fan family, didn't Han Shushan also say about me? Why didn't you ask me?"

"...Do you think it doesn't matter?"

Lu Chengfeng's eyes were a little complicated and he raised his head.

Xie Jiuxiao's eyes instantly turned red at her glance, and she looked a little aggrieved.

Lu Chengfeng: "..."

She didn't intend to ask, it was nothing more than the reason. She just felt it was unnecessary, really unnecessary. Xie Jiuxiao did what she said and did. If all this was really just to use her, then this would be too generous.

The dignified young master of the first aristocratic family in Yanjing, who had been held in the palm of his hand since he was a child, betrayed his lust by a famous son. These words sounded really outrageous. What's more, Lu Chengfeng knew him well, and this guy was not someone who could condescend to others and seek compromise.

Lu Chengfeng sighed and said helplessly: "...You really know how to find ways to cure me now."

She paused and continued: "I will naturally believe you if I don't ask you, not to mention... I am willing to take advantage of you. Why are you aggrieved?"

"I have never thought of it this way." Xie Jiuxiao said angrily: "...he is slanderous!"

Lu Chengfeng's eyes were deep, he pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "More than this, I want to ask you something else."

Xie Jiuxiao's Hong had already been coaxed away by her two words, saying: "What?"

Lu Chengfeng looked at him steadily, showing a trace of seriousness: "Han Shushan said that you are the direct descendant of the Xie family, which means that you are the head of the Xie family. You should also know that I will leave sooner or later."

Xie Jiuxiao understood, but had not yet decided how to answer.

Lu Chengfeng said: "You really can let go of everything that is going on with the Xie family now. It is true that the Xie family is being targeted, but your eldest brother's move of retreating in order to advance can be regarded as a clear attitude. He wants to retreat to protect the family.

But if it doesn’t happen again, your eldest brother has already retreated to this position. If the emperor continues to pester you, everyone will probably know it. The Xie family has a deep foundation, and it will only be a matter of time before it regains its glory after taking a breather."

Lu Chengfeng wanted to take Xie Jiuxiao away, but he also wanted to keep him. Everything in Subei was full of unknowns. She was now destitute. How could she support such a pampered person?

Sigh... Lu Chengfeng sighed in confusion, but she felt that this was the case. She finally understood why some people would spend a lot of money for a beautiful woman.

And...is Xie Jiuxiao really willing to give up on all this?

Xie Jiuxiao said: "Although the eldest brother is not a direct descendant, he is also a bloodline of the Xie family. The eldest brother is smart and capable, and the Xie family will surely survive for a long time in his hands. Why do I need these, and I don't want these."

His gaze was extremely hot, like a scorching summer sun, carrying the most passionate emotion of a young man: "I want to go with you, I want to see the moon in Subei again, I just want you to see me when you turn around.

"

He was extremely sincere and his eyes were extremely sticky, as if he wanted to treat himself as something to hang on Lu Chengfeng.

Lu Chengfeng felt his throat feel dry and tight inexplicably, feeling an extremely unfamiliar desire.

But she finally controlled it and just smiled and said, "I understand."

Xie Jiuxiao looked at her.

knew?

No, how did she know that she was about to be overjoyed.
