Chapter 329 Unexpected encounter

She and Qin Meng recalled the delicious plain noodles in Chengfu Temple. Qin Meng was also curious: "I think there is someone in that temple who is your spy."

"Yes. Don't I have a group of eyeliners?"

It turned out to be hidden in Chengfu Temple? Qin Meng was surprised.

"No." She smiled. "It's convenient for nuns to go to various houses. They can also go in and out of the houses of middle-aged and small households in the neighborhood. They can preach scriptures and do things."

As soon as he saw her expression, he knew that most of her people were not nuns, but were just hiding in the monastery to avoid Su Jintian. He was surprised: "Didn't you give him the eyeliner?"

"Scared? Who said that?" She categorically denied, "Can you give your body to your opponent?"

"……opponent?"

"Su Jintian is very pushy." She sighed, "Thanks to meeting a good friend like me, he learned to be low-key and restrained."

Qin Meng couldn't help but laugh. He knew that Su Jintian had been tricked by her, but he couldn't sympathize with the sword master Su Jintian.

In the small duty room, the paned windows were half-dark, she drank half a cup of hot tea, and whispered to Qin Meng, plotting.

Cao Xiwan drew pictures on the table with his fingers and explained in detail what happened in the alleys of Baihusuo in Jiangning County.

Qin Meng was sitting on the side, groping for his double swords, when he heard that a night walker in black actually appeared, and actually used money to buy Jinyi Yamen's eyeliner. His face was solemn. She told the gangsters from Shangyuan County to follow her again, and explained the cause and effect.

one time.

"Have you reported it to Mr. Hou?"

"I just reported it." She took out a handwritten list, "I asked Xiao Qiao to check. In addition, there are 103 suspicious names in Liu Ji's account book. Mr. Qin

If it's convenient, it's best to check them all, as they may be bribed by Prince Zhao's Mansion."

"Okay. You should also be careful." He took the list in his hand and looked at the lamp carefully.

"Yeah. I've already found someone to keep an eye on Liu Ruhai."

Don't let her catch evidence. If she catches him, his death will come.

Qin Meng was startled, looked up from the list, and looked at her in surprise: "Are you looking for someone to keep an eye on him?"

In Qin Meng's view, Liu Ruhai was very shrewd and it was difficult for him to keep an eye on him. This man was now serving as a long history officer in the Prince of Zhou's palace. Who could she ask to keep an eye on him in the palace?

She was proud and smiled: "My companion."

Seeing that it was getting late, she got up and told Qin Baihu to carefully check the list of traitors: "The Marquis takes this matter very seriously."

She had never spoken this kind of official language before. Qin Meng was stunned and thought for a moment: "Lian Jue Lian Bai Hu, do you have a bad relationship with you?"

"...Yes. We must not lose to him." She said sadly, "We have to find out first and shame him to death!"

She encouraged Qin Meng again and again, patted her chest and made a wish for the Marquis of Nankang to be granted an official position. In short, she must win.

Qin Meng smiled and agreed. This is certainly a great achievement.

She was satisfied and turned around to leave quietly. Qin Meng watched her holding her belly and staggering away. Her back was so vicissitudes of life that he couldn't help but want to laugh. He finally remembered that he had not mentioned the business yet: "Master Hou, it seems that he is ill."

She turned around and replied calmly: "It's not me. I didn't poison him."

"..." Qin Meng looked at her speechlessly.

"Well, you don't doubt me?"

"……no."

She immediately felt relieved and quickly explained: "Just to find my Bizhu, I gave Mr. Hou a little bit of poison——"

She raised her hand and gestured with the tips of her little fingers, indicating that she had no suspicion at all, "My bizhu has been found. The Marquis will not be poisoned. The misunderstanding between the Marquis and I has been explained clearly. I am fine with him now."

.”

Because Qin Meng looked unconvinced, she emphatically said the three words "Great", "Besides, doesn't he have blue beads? Su Jintian offered them to him. What a flatterer."

"..." Qin Meng looked at her, "Too many explanations are like a guilty conscience."

He would never believe that Qing Niangzi and the Marquis are now well. She dared to say that the poisoning was probably known to the Marquis. The Marquis didn't care, and of course Qin Meng could pretend that he didn't hear it. He had also noticed recently

The subtle changes in the Marquis of Nankang. It seems that after he came out of the palace prison, he regained his favor. The relationship between the Marquis and Qing Niang was no longer as cross-eyed as before.

But Jinyi Yamen's experience in interrogating confessions means that there must be something wrong with her nagging like this.

He looked at Cao Xiwan, picked up the pot, and poured tea for her, which was a sign of hospitality.

She sat down again and drank half a cup of tea, explaining that she was a loyal old lady.

Of course he believed it, but what he believed was Qing Niangzi's loyalty to the yamen's old-age pension and double salary after retirement. She had to work hard for this.

She is a dedicated fan.

No one doubts this, not even the Marquis.

She coughed guiltily and put down the tea cup. Of course she had poisoned more than a little bit. She wanted to poison Song Chengming to death.

Qin Meng sat down and pondered: "I always feel that Mr. Hou is ill. Not poisoned."

"Hmm?" she mused, "Are you sick?"

When Cao Xiwan left the Hou's Mansion, she even leaked the news that she did not return to the palace immediately. She took advantage of the night to hide near the Nankang Hou's Mansion.

Across the street from the gate of Hou Mansion.

There were several teahouses and shops across the street. She jumped up and hung herself from a golden hook, hiding like a bat in the darkness of the eaves.

The watch drum sounded, and she watched the watchman from the neighborhood beating his clapper as he passed under her eyes.

After a while, the time came, and at the fourth quarter of the night, the gate of the Hou Mansion burst open.

The Marquis of Nankang, wearing silver crown and court uniform, strode out of the house with a riding whip in hand, ready to go to court.

He probably hasn't slept at all.

The fans rushed outside the gate, picked up their horses, and lit dozens of lanterns, lighting up the long street.

When she saw the Marquis getting on his horse, he actually slipped twice.

"Huh?"

As Qin Meng said, Mr. Hou's health seems to be a little bad?

The lights of the procession of Nankang Marquis going to court gradually faded away and disappeared from the street.

She thought for a while, jumped down, and looked at the zenith of the imperial city in the distance.

It was already the fourth watch, and she walked slowly through the long dark street and back to the house slave group house in the back alley.

She stood at the door of her house and thought about it. She planned to go home and sleep for an hour, then go to Chen Ming's house at five o'clock. When he went to the office, she stopped him to talk about the Marquis's affairs and discuss it.

Chen Ming was married and she couldn't help but wake him up in the middle of the night.

"Ah."

Suddenly, there was a strange noise behind her, which seemed to be calling her. She turned around. She saw a gray puppet floating in the darkness at the corner of the street.

Feng Xiaochu.

Her companion.

She and Feng Xiaochu had an agreement long ago. Xiao Chu would lurk next to Liu Ruhai as a puppet and act as her backbone to monitor Liu Ruhai.

She made a gesture and asked Feng Xiaochu to hide at the corner of the street. She would come back after she opened the door.

The plan was decided, so she took off her shabby blue coat, took off the scarf on her belly, and took out her gold leaf purse.

Unexpectedly, there was a slight problem. She thought deeply, but she didn't find the house key in her bag. Where did she put it? By the way, it used to be placed under the tiles of the door eaves, but then it was changed to another place.

She jumped up and touched the tiles on the door, but there were none. She turned around and looked at Eunuch Liu's yard. He lived in Prince Zhou's Mansion and he hadn't given up the rent yet.

This person can be described as a cunning rabbit with three holes.

But, she smiled, she, the Qingluo female ghost, was still hiding a secret stake beside Eunuch Liu.

She turned her head and gestured towards the darkness at the corner of the street, asking Xiao Chu to wait. She looked for her house keys.

It's okay to jump into the house, but she has arranged a trap on the courtyard wall. If you jump in and accidentally touch the trap, it won't be good.

She jumped into Liu's house with her small bag under her arm. There were autumn insects chirping in the dark yard. She turned her eyes and saw his large blue-tiled water tank.

She walked to the water tank and took a look. The tank was filled with clear water.

He also hired Sister Hong to come every few days to clean and fetch water. She took some water, washed her face, and tore off the blue spots with force. She also wiped her face with a maternity towel wrapped around her bag.

By chance, she looked up and caught sight of Liu Ruhai who had just walked out.

Liu Ruhai, who was dressed in night clothes, had just walked out of the main room when he saw a dark thief stealing water under the stairs.

He and Cao Xiwan stared at each other unexpectedly.

"..." The two of them were relatively speechless. They were each shocked in their hearts.

Of course, she was even more panicked. This person was not in the palace, and he was dressed in night clothes and looked like he had a conspiracy.

Could it be that they found out that Feng Xiaochu was a spy?

Impossible. She calmed down quickly, and it was impossible for her clever plan to be discovered. If it was discovered, it would definitely be Feng Xiaochu.
