Xianyun Pavilion.

It was cool and the wind suddenly rose, and the curtains swayed gently.

A candle was lit in the room, and two small pastries were placed on the small table. The newly brewed tea was steaming. Three people sat opposite each other. The pastries did not move and no one drank the tea.

Yan Mu sat opposite Shi Yong. He was originally a man with fair skin. Now his hair is completely white and dressed in white. He looks transparent and white. His tone is slow and shallow, adding a hint of fairy spirit.

"Shi Luomei has a sister-in-law who remarried to Chang County after his brother passed away. Her husband was a big and thick blacksmith. She gave birth to a white and fat boy for seven months with beautiful eyes and beautiful eyes. She was the posthumous son of Shi Luomei's brother."

Shi Yong picked up a horseshoe cake and took a light bite, "Do you know Shi Luomei?"

Yan Mu looked at her carefully for a moment, "For many years, Shi Luomei has been wandering around the world, and her whereabouts are uncertain, and she has no way to investigate. But according to your words, since Shi Luomei is afraid, she naturally knows the existence of her little nephew and does not contact her sister-in-law, which is probably to save the lives of her mother and son."

Shi Yong nodded, "It is very likely that this woman has a strong relationship. If there is no accident, she will definitely not recruit that person."

Wu Chan approached, "Cantonese Uniform Guard really wants to kill her?"

Who can figure out Zhao Yin's thoughts thoroughly? Shi Yong pondered for a moment, "The execution will be executed at noon tomorrow. I think the orders you said are not so easy to take back. Oh, what a pity. This is the only clue left in Shi Yong's death."

Speaking of this, she seemed to think of something and turned to ask Yan Mu again.

"The poisonous snakes in Zhang Yun's venomous room are also snake venom. Is there any news?"

Yan Mu shook his head and said, "It's my silly mother's business, I have some clues."

"Is that true?" Shi Yong's expression slightly constrained, "What do you say?"

Although this is Song Ashi's business, Song Ashi is now her, and she is Song Ashi. After a long time, she has integrated into that role. Things related to Ashi have become their own business.

Yan Mu looked at her and said, "I started to investigate the case of Song Changgui - your father picking up your mother. It was a robbery. The bandits robbed a group of merchants from the desert, robbed goods, and robbed a woman, your mother. But strangely, the bandits took the stolen goods and the woman and died halfway before they returned to the bandit's nest."

"When your father went to the autopsy, the woman was already a fool. She couldn't tell how the thieves died, or who she was or where she lived. Maybe your father was a good-looking man. She was afraid of the officials, but not your father, so she followed your father home honestly..."

"The government also looked for the group of merchants who were robbed by bandits, but no one reported such a large batch of goods and no one claimed them afterwards. The case was left unresolved. Later, the woman became your mother, and no one mentioned it again over time."

Shi Yong finished listening with his eyelids, and his expression was filled with joy and anger, "What did you find?"

Yan Mu lowered his head and took a sip of tea, hesitating: "That batch of goods was sealed by the government for two years, and then sold them to a business owner. After several changes of hands, the flow is unknown. When I was investigating this, I heard a boss who often traveled to the desert to do fur business saying that he almost bought it at that time, so he made a special trip to see the goods, as if it was something from Wuliang Khan. However, he came to me as a gossip. After eighteen years, memories are untested and clues are difficult to check."

When Shi Yong heard the three words "Wulian Khan", his face became slightly tense.

"So, may my mother be a woman from Desert?"

Yan Mu thought about it and shook his head, "Not all. The appearance, temperament and habits of the woman in the desert are very different from those of the woman in the Great Yan. If your mother is a woman in the desert, someone will definitely talk about it. But have you heard anyone say it?"

No.

In the memory left by Ashi to Shi Yong, her mother was a gentle and noble woman. Although she was a little stupid and rarely spoke, no message was related to the desert.

"I can't find anything else?"

Yan Mu shook his head again, "This case was also because more than a dozen people died at one time, and the influence was very wide, so there was a trace. Wherever your mother went later, she really took it... there was no clue at all."

"Don't worry." Wu Chan looked at her and hugged her waist, "As long as the fate is not over, we will always meet again."

Shi Yong looked at her and felt that her words were meaningful.

It seems that it is not her and silly girls, but them.

Shi Yong said, "When is it? I have to go back."

Wu Chan snorted coldly, looked up at the ceiling: "It's almost dawn. Why not just sit for two hours at Sister Xian's house?"

Shi Yong waved his head, and Wu Chan said, "Xianniang is going to the execution ground tomorrow. Are you going?"

"I--"

Before Shi Yong finished speaking, a very light sound came from the tiles on the roof.

All three of them heard it. Shi Yong, Wu Chan and Yan Mu exchanged glances. Yan Mu waved his hand and the candle in the room went out. Shi Yong stretched his waist lazily, "Which brother is visiting? Get out."

Another extremely slight sound.

When Yan Mu chased out, he saw only a figure galloping away.

"Can't catch up."

Shi Yong took a look, "How long has he been here?"

“Just arrived.”

"That's good."

Shi Yong looked up at Yan Mu, "In a turbulent autumn, you guys are careful."

"I understand." Yan Mu's eyes were slightly deeper, and he took out an exquisite golden box from his arms and handed it to her, "This is the key."

"Key?" Shi Yong looked at him deliberately in confusion, "What are you doing for me?"

Yan Mu was tall and straight, but lowered his head when he spoke to her, and his attitude was extremely submissive.

"The master said that this is a key to wealth and a token of his master. The property, hall, shop, money house, land deed... under Yongrenyuan's name is opened by it. The master gave it to me for safekeeping before the accident. Now that she has entrusted us to you, this key should be kept by you."

“No need.”

Shi Yong did not go to pick up the gold box and looked at Yan Mu with confidence.

"She is left to you to keep, so you are the most suitable person to keep. My current status is inconvenient. Not to mention Yongrenyuan, even if you have to contact you, you should avoid trouble."

Yan Mu slowly took back the box and whispered: "Okay."

———

Shi Yong walked out of Xianyun Pavilion and saw Song Changgui coming hurriedly.

Before she came out, she only said she came to Xianyun Pavilion, and Song Changgui didn't think about him. He didn't expect that she had done so many things this night, and only said that she was here to comfort Xian's mother.

On the way home, Shi Yong told Song Changgui about Qianfang Hongluo.

In order to avoid being fooled, she had to use another lie to complete it.

"A friend of Xian Jie told her about the matter of Qianwei Hongluo, but this friend used to be in the world and had a criminal record. Although he has already washed his hands, he is unwilling to be involved in the world anymore, and he is even more unwilling to deal with the court. Xian Niang refused to say his name."

Song Changgui looked at her in shock.

After a while, he said, "But your father and I don't want to be in the world, how can I know who Qianfang Hongluo is?"

"My father can do everything." Shi Yong looked at him with a smile, "The Grand Governor said that his father has become a coroner. You are now in the Grand Governor's heart. Maybe one day I will give you a big job..."

Song Changgui touched the headscarf, then the short beard on his chin, looking puzzled.

Is he really that capable?

Unexpectedly, as soon as the sky was dawn, he took on a big job.

——With Ashi, I went to examine the autopsy for the prisoners who were executed today.

He is familiar with this errand. He has been buried all his life and has been numb. With the order from the superior, he will have to go immediately. But he has never... been in such a noble carriage to test the corpse?

The Jinyiwei sent a coachman to pick him up.

The gorgeous carriage drove into the entrance of the Song family and stopped at the entrance of the Song family courtyard, attracting neighbors to watch and discuss. The coachman respectfully said "Mr. Song" and heard Song Changgui's forehead rushing blood, and he was a little floating when walking. Seeing this, Wang took it to the door, and in the envious gaze of the neighbor, his chin was almost lifted to the sky.

Song Changgui has been a coroner for most of his life. To put it nicely, he is an official, but to put it badly, he is a corpse collector. Not to mention the daily life that is disliked by outsiders, even his relatives never like him. Otherwise, the five of them would not have been separated by their mother and father to live alone.

"Ashi."

Sitting in the carriage, Song Changgui looked at his daughter, sweating on his forehead.

"There is something, Dad has to tell you."

Shi Yongke was much more comfortable than her father. He smiled when he heard this, "Why are you hesitating?"

Song Changgui frowned, looked around at the carriage, waved to Shi Yong, and then moved his seat carefully, sat next to his daughter, and said in a voice that only she could hear.

"Dad... is not a descendant of Song Ci."

What did you say suddenly?

Shi Yong glanced at him with a slanted eye and said nothing.

Song Changgui felt even more ashamed, and his head lowered, "Dad said it to those who look down on us. He thought that if he said this, he would look up to him... But this lie was definitely not dared to say it in front of the Grand Governor. The Grand Governor really mistakenly thought that his father was so capable, and even identified Qianwei Hongluo, so he sent the carriage?"

He paused for a moment and asked in fear.

"The Grand Governor attaches so much importance to it, he is not at ease..."

Shi Yong:...

Didn’t I just send a carriage to pick it up? Looks like I was so scared that the old man was so angry that he looked like he couldn’t bear it.

"Dad, don't think too much." Shi Yong gently patted Song Changgui's arm.

"This is where you go? Not to mention a carriage like this, a better carriage in the future, you can sit in a better house, you can live in a better woman... Forget this, you can't. In short, our family will get better and better."

After saying that, she squeezed her eyes at Song Changgui.

"Hmm? Understand?"

Song Changgui covered his heart and leaned against him.

"I'm so excited that I'm so angry here. My father can't stand it, and I feel ashamed. If the Grand Governor tomorrow knows that I'm a ignorant person, I don't know so much... But what should I do? It doesn't matter if my father dies, if I'm implicated the family."
