340: too stingy

"So what if I'm discovered, as long as my father is here, the Xiao family won't dare to touch me at all." Liu Anyao said disdainfully.

Oh, Lu Mingzhu dares to tease her and is seeking death.

Previously, she could hold back and play with Lu Mingzhu slowly, but this bitch turned out to be so arrogant and dared to call her a idiot.

Liu Anyao just wanted to rush to Lu Mingzhu's yard and strangle her to death.

When Shuhua saw Liu Anyao furious, he didn't dare to persuade her.

When she was angry, the more she tried to persuade him, the more she would annoy her master.

Lu Mingzhu was so angry with Lu Qiao that she ate two more bowls for lunch. Little did she know that she had been betrayed by Lu Qiao and her good days in the Xiao Mansion were about to come to an end.

Lu Qiao returned to his yard, had a quick lunch, and then went to find Lu Xiang.

At this time, Lu Xiang had just sat down and was about to have lunch.

"Third Sister." Lu Qiao called out, then looked at the table of dishes in front of her and said, "Third Sister hasn't had lunch yet."

Lu Xiang looked at Lu Qiao coming in a hurry and a box in her arms. She paused and asked, "Just came back from Xiao Mansion?"

"kindness."

"Have you had lunch? Let's eat together?"

Lu Qiao hesitated for a moment, put the makeup box aside, and sat down: "Okay."

It's true that it's too hot to eat. I just went back to my Haitang Courtyard and just ate a few bites. Now I'm standing in the cool hall, smelling the fragrance, and suddenly I feel like I can eat some more.

You’re here, let’s eat some more.

Yunzhe immediately served a small bowl of rice to Lu Qiao.

While Lu Qiao was eating, he recounted what he had done in the Xiao Mansion.

"I guess Liu Anyao will be furious now. Not to mention joining forces with Fourth Sister, it's only because of her mercy that she didn't kill Fourth Sister immediately."

"Third sister, this way I won't have to go to Xiao's house to deal with fourth sister, right?"

"You don't know how stingy the fourth sister is. She was so proud of herself when she got a honeydew melon as a tribute. She couldn't wait to show it off to me. When I took a few more bites, her face suddenly changed and she even said something.

I have never seen a world that is not worthy of eating honeydew melons."

"I went to see Liu Anyao today and she gave me a set of pearls. The fourth sister actually told me in private that she should keep it and return it to me as a dowry when I get married in the future. Isn't it said that the Xiao family is extremely rich? She has lived a life of great wealth.

It’s a life of fine clothing and fine food, why do you want to keep it for yourself when you see a good thing?”

"That third sister...the head and face Liu Anyao gave me, can I keep it? It's so exquisite."

Lu Xiang never knew that Lu Qiao talked so much.

After hearing the end, she raised her head and glanced at the makeup box that Lu Qiao had put aside: "Open it and take a look."

Lu Qiao responded, put down his chopsticks and opened the makeup box.

Liu Anyao wanted to bribe Lu Qiao, so even if she gave him something casually, it would be difficult for ordinary people to get it, so this whole set of hair and face looks very delicate and pretty, which is very suitable for Lu Qiao at this age.

"Not bad, keep it."

It’s a fool who doesn’t want the things that are delivered to your door.

When Lu Qiao heard this, he immediately grinned: "Okay."

"We've finished eating the honeydew melon. If you like the pastries that the Queen sent for this morning, take some back." Lu Xiang said again.

Lu Qiao smiled and narrowed her eyes, nodding happily.

She discovered that if she put aside her prejudices and made friends with the third sister, she would really be a gentle and generous person.

But when it gets cruel, it can be frightening.

"I want to visit my aunt later." Lu Qiao thought for a while and said.

Ever since her aunt moved to Beiyuan, she only went there once.

Lu Xiang thanked him casually.

As long as Aunt Lin keeps her peace from now on and doesn't molest Yao Ezi, she doesn't mind Lu Qiao going to the Beiyuan.

Lu Qiao felt better after hearing the word "en" without any emotion.

"I'm afraid Lu Mingzhu won't have any extra time to deal with you in the future. There is no need to go to the Xiao Mansion anymore. Lu Mingzhu will soon find out that you picked her out and harmed her. If she comes back to settle accounts with you, you should be more alert." Lu Xiang

said.

Lu Qiao nodded: "Yes."

She has nothing to fear when Lu Mingzhu comes.

A person whose father and grandmother had given up had almost no status in the Lu family. How could she still be bullied by Lu Mingzhu in her own territory?



The first thing Zuo Shiwen did after taking office was to continue to track down the murderer of Zheng Wenwu with Dali Xing.

The Prince Qing of Dali Temple deeply disliked Zuo Shiwen. He had a bad temper and a tough temper, but the emperor wanted to promote him, so he could only endure it.

Zuo Shiwen asked Mr. Wang to take him to Ningxiang Tower to watch the scene again.

Since the incident, the people in Ningxiang Tower were arrested and the government sealed the place. The inside is still the same as it was back then. Food and drinks that have not been eaten are still placed on the table. On such a hot day, as soon as you enter the door, you can smell a strong and overwhelming smell.

Disgusting rancid smell.

"vomit--"

Master Wang couldn't hold it back, so he covered his mouth and ran to the side to retching.

Zuo Shiwen's face changed slightly, and he couldn't bear it anymore.

Everyone in the building was in jail, so of course there would be no one to clean up the leftovers, not to mention that the murderer was to be investigated, and the people from the Yamen had to preserve the scene, let alone clean up for them.

Suppressing the discomfort in his heart, Zuo Shiwen asked, "Which room does Wen Ling live in?"

Master Wang held on to the wall and pointed to the southernmost part of the second floor: "Go up the stairs to the south and go all the way to the end, the first room."

Zuo Shiwen nodded expressionlessly and walked towards the second floor.

Mr. Wang hesitated for a long time, then followed him upstairs while holding his nose.

Entering Wen Ling's room, the scent of powder came to his nostrils. Mr. Wang took a few deep breaths, and then he felt alive.

"We have already investigated Ningxiang Tower several times, and all necessary clues and evidence have been recorded. It may not be useful for you to investigate again now," Master Wang said.

Zuo Shiwen didn't respond to him and checked carefully.

Mr. Wang felt bored and glanced at his lips speechlessly.

An hour later, Zuo Shiwen left Ningxiang Tower.

"I have to thank Mr. Wang for today. I have something to do and go back to the Criminal Department, so I won't leave with Mr. Wang and say goodbye." He cupped his hands towards Mr. Wang, then got on the sedan chair and left without looking back.

Mr. Wang, who was left at the door of Ningxiang Tower: "..."

So I’m going to accompany you on such a hot day, and you’re not even asking me to have a meal, or even a cup of tea?

What kind of door knocker is this?

Mr. Wang was so angry that he turned into a pufferfish, and finally walked away angrily.

"Sir, are you going back to the Yamen?" his regular attendant asked.

Mr. Wang said angrily: "Why don't you go back to the Yamen? I'm exhausted. Go home and sleep."

Zuo Shiwen is so active in investigating the case, so let him do it alone. He can worry less. It depends on what he can find out. When a new official takes office, he will handle the first case assigned by the emperor.

No, he will be good-looking when the time comes.

Mr. Wang was thinking happily in his heart.

Now Zuo Shiwen is attracting attention, and everyone's attention is focused on him. If the murder of Prince An is not investigated in the end, Zuo Shiwen will definitely be the first to be punished.
