Huaixiu reported some situations to Sheng Lingrong and hoped that the Yasi would come forward to see if she could buy more time. Sheng Lingrong agreed to her request.

Huaixiu hesitated, but Sheng Lingrong saw that she was worried, "What else do you want to say?"

Huaixiu said, "Does Sheng Changsi think Huaixiu can continue to investigate?"

Sheng Lingrong smiled after hearing this. When she came to Huaixiu, her eyes were gentler than ever before, "Isn't this what you requested to check?"

"But Song Yuan is the boss of Yongchang..."

"He is your old friend, do you think you should avoid suspicion?"

Huaixiu nodded, then shook her head. Her heart was complicated. She was afraid that her affection for Song Yuan would hinder her judgment, but she couldn't let go.

Sheng Lingrong looked at her seriously. The little girl looked very worried, "I know a little bit about you and Song Yuan. In fact, about Yongchang, Liumen is known as the place where intelligence is gathered for the country and the dynasty, but I don't even know about it. I won't hide it from you. We

What I know about Yongchang is not more than what you know. This is also strange. I can only say that Yongchang is not simple. Don't be nervous. It does not mean that it is not good. So far, Yongchang has not been found to have done anything serious. On the contrary, they

The boat was sailing and hit many water pirates. Of course, the businessmen were pursuing profits, but this was also considered as eliminating harm for the people. You don't have to think too much about it, just investigate the case carefully and trust your own judgment. However,

We need to find evidence to prove it.”

Huaixiu was moved and said, "Sheng Changsi believes in me?"

Sheng Lingrong smiled and said, "Don't forget your original intention, isn't that what you said?"

Huaixiu took a long breath and nodded firmly.

After walking out six doors, it was already dark. Huaixiu did not go back to the rental house, but walked towards the gambling house.

Brother Song said that he wanted to work with her, but now he should be accompanying Sister Lu, which was very good. She felt much more relaxed without him by her side. Thinking that when the case was settled, she applied to the Yasi to handle the case in other places.

, such as Leng Changsi and Tie Changsi, there will be no need to meet Brother Song, which will only increase the embarrassment.

Thinking like this, my steps became more relaxed.

As Huaixiu expected, Song Yuan was having dinner with Lu Huiniang, and he occasionally looked up at the timer in the room.

"Brother Song, is there anything else important?" Lu Huiniang asked.

"No." Song Yuan didn't know whether he was telling Huiniang or himself.

Hui Niang served him soup, and the two of them ate in silence until they were done. Song Yuan stood up and left, and Hui Niang walked to the door. A gust of cold wind blew, and Hui Niang couldn't help coughing.

"What's wrong?"

"fine."

"Madam must have caught the wind and cold. She had a cough last night." Xiaohuan said from the side.

Song Yuan reached out and touched her forehead, and immediately ordered his servant, "Go and ask for a doctor."

"No, no, no."

Song Yuan's face sank, "Don't think that wind-cold is just a minor illness. I... still have the root of the disease to this day. What's more, you, a girl, can't be careless."

Song Yuan asked Xiaohuan to help Huiniang go into the house to rest. The doctor soon came and checked her pulse. It turned out that it was really wind and cold, but not serious. Then he prescribed medicine and said that she would just need to rest for a few days.

After the doctor left, Song and Yuan asked his servants to cook the medicine, and watched Hui Niang drink it before leaving.

Lu Huiniang was lying on the bed, not sleepy, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

"Madam." Xiaohuan said with a smile, "The master of the house cares about Madam very much."

But Huiniang's heart was not focused on this. She said quietly, "I remember that every time I was sick, my mother-in-law would stay with me all night."

"Slave, please go and ask the master to come back."

"No." Hui Niang stopped her, "I miss my grandma, and he is not my grandma."

Xiaohuan smiled and said, "But he is madam's husband."

Hui Niang glared at Xiaohuan, "I have not yet redressed my father's grievances, so I will never consider these things."

"Madam." Xiaohuan was worried for her, "These are obviously two different things."

Hui Niang shook her head, "Brother Song is good to me because our family saved him back then. He did it to repay his kindness, not because... he likes me. Only by settling my father's matter can things be settled between us.

Fair. Do you understand?"

"not understand."

Hui Niang sighed, "I don't want to trap him with kindness. What I want is to love him wholeheartedly."

Xiaohuan tilted his head, "If you want to be single-minded, Mr. Fang is the one."

"However, he still chose his parents. I don't blame him. No one can make a decision in that situation." Huiniang remembered that day, she waited for him by the river all day and night, but he didn't come.

Waiting for him is his mother...

The past is gone and it's too late to say anything now.

Xiaohuan understood, "Madam, if you don't take the initiative, what if the head of the family falls in love with someone else?"

Huiniang was stunned for a moment, and the figure of Huaixiu appeared in her mind, and she said helplessly, "Then let's just pretend that we are not destined."

"Alas." Xiaohuan sighed, "Madam is so..."

"Is it too stupid?" Huiniang smiled bitterly, "Maybe."

Song Yuan returned to the study, picked up a book and put it down, then picked up another book and put it down again. Ziyi couldn't see it, "Master, if you keep grinding, it will be bright."

Song Yuan frowned at him, and Ziyi quickly looked away.

Huaixiu walked to the gambling house. The moon was high in the sky and everything was quiet. She quickly climbed over the wall and entered. The gambling house was dark. She started a fire. Instead of going to the backyard immediately, she explored around and came to the second floor.

There was a large room upstairs, with layers of curtains and the lingering fragrance of makeup and powder. It was guessed that it was Feng Erniang's room, but it was empty. Suddenly she heard the sound of footsteps. Huaixiu immediately blew out the fire and hid it between the curtains.

A man pushed the door open and entered with light and slow steps. Huaixiu concluded that he was a master and held the Qingfeng sword tightly. The man stood by the door and looked at it. When he was about to leave, he should have smelled the breathing in the room, so

Looking for the sound, he lifted up the layers of curtains. Huaixiu's heart jumped into his throat. He pulled out the Qingfeng sword and unsheathed the sharp sword. Suddenly, a cold light appeared. The man struck with a palm. The wind from his palm blew the curtains and fluttered.

He didn't hit Huaixiu. Huaixiu swung his sword and didn't hit the opponent. The curtain fell in two.

It was a dark night, and the two exchanged a few moves. The man realized that the other person was a woman, and called out "Huai Xiu."

"Brother Song?" Huaixiu heard his voice, and they both stopped their hands at the same time. Song Yuan lit the fire and looked at each other.

"I thought you were gone."

"I thought you wouldn't come."

They both spoke at the same time, but both fell silent.

"It's so late, are you waiting for me?"

The misunderstanding became serious. Huaixiu had a headache and said quickly, "No, I came on foot, so I wasted time."

Song Yuan hummed and was silent again.

After a moment Song Yuan asked, "What did you find?"

"There's nothing left."

"Have you been to the backyard?"

"No."

"Together." Song Yuan subconsciously reached out to pull her, but this time Huaixiu avoided it and Song Yuan said nothing.

Huaixiu said, "Brother Song, go first, I'll just follow you."

The two of them went to the backyard one after another and found the dry well. The well mouth was small. Huaixiu was about to jump down. "Wait a minute," Song Yuan stopped him. He threw the fire down and saw that the bottom of the well was quite deep.

"I'll go down first." After saying that, he jumped up.

Huaixiu heard the gentle wind and was a little worried about him.

"Come down." Song Yuan called her. Huaixiu didn't even think about jumping down. She secretly thought that the dry well was really deep. She was not good at Qinggong and was afraid of suffering a loss. However, she felt a light touch on her waist and she had been beaten by Song Yuan.
