Liu Ruhai looked at the little water thief beside the water tank. He finally felt that living opposite Qingluo Nvgui's house was an inappropriate choice.
He was doing something important for Prince Zhao, but he was bumped into by the female fan of Jin Yiwei.
In the gray yard, she was secretly glad that when she sneaked into someone else's house, she took off Sister Qu's shabby clothes and erased the ugly pregnant woman's disguise.
Liu Ruhai definitely didn't see it.
Otherwise he won't come out.
She took a look and saw Liu Ruhai standing on the steps of the main house. Behind him were Eunuch He and Li Baihu, who were walking out the door.
Both of them looked at her in shock, and Eunuch He couldn't even put down one of his legs.
These two are completely inferior to Liu Ruhai.
Liu Ruhai must have been surprised, but there was no change in his expression, and he smiled calmly.
But the same could not be said for Eunuch He and Li Baihu. She could tell the difference between their expressions: [What should I do? What should I do? The Qingluo female ghost has exposed their conspiracy! What should I do?]
These two don't work.
How can people like them be spies if they are not calm and clever? She thought hard in her mind, what are they doing?
Her face was calm and calm, as if she had the wisdom to see through everything. She asked: "Are we meeting?"
Liu Ruhai said politely: "Yes."
"What's the secret?"
"The peace negotiations in the palace must be re-arranged in the capital."
"That makes sense." She agreed.
"What's wrong with you?" he asked.
"Yes." She squatted down, dug around under his water tank, and found her own door key.
"I'm back."
"...I won't give it away." He looked at the copper bar in her hand speechlessly. Of course he recognized it. It was the key to the Cao family's house.
She looked back at him: "Don't forget what I said. This is the capital after all."
"Your territory?"
Haha, she left a long laugh, jumped into the crescent moon, and left from the tile wall. She thought, she, the Qingluo female ghost, is really mysterious.
Liu Ruhai would never believe that she was just here to get the house keys.
She squatted in the corner of the alley, wondering, what are they doing?
"General Manager——"
Liu Ruhai made a gesture, and Li Baihu and Eunuch He could only remain silent. He quickly left with his two men.
She had returned to Cao's house a long time ago, squatting and peeping out from the crack in the door. Seeing the three figures leaving in a hurry, she quietly followed them out and huddled against the wall at the entrance of the alley. She squinted at the neighbors outside.
As the nine gates of the capital opened, crowds surged, and the morning market was bustling with fireworks. Eunuch Liu led his men away.
Their horses were actually placed far away at the fire watch tower at the intersection of the street.
Was it just a chance encounter? She couldn't help but shed a cold sweat.
Liu Ruhai tied up her sapphire blue silk cloak, sat on the Wuzui horse, and pondered.
Eunuch He couldn't hold it back anymore: "Manager, did she find out?"
"...It's not like that." He sighed. Maybe it was bad luck, but she really liked to hide her house keys in various places.
It was entirely possible to hide it under the water tank at his house. But he didn't dare to make such a conclusion so easily.
Eunuch He didn't dare to say anything when he saw that Manager Liu looked bad, but Li Shishan and Li Baihu murmured in their hearts that they had advised the manager not to take the risk of renting that house, but the manager insisted on going. Later, Qingluo Nvluo was going to enter the palace.
.The general manager just moved to the palace.
This matter, alas. But he looked at Manager Liu, who seemed to smile again and didn't seem to take this bad luck too seriously.
That's right, the manager said last night that the Qingluo female ghost was busy fighting with Wusheng Old Mother. Isn't that just a pair of old lovers fighting? The Qingluo female ghost definitely couldn't care less about her new lover, Manager Liu.
"Go back to the palace." Liu Ruhai rode his horse.
"……yes."
The original plan was not to return to Prince Zhou's Mansion. Eunuch He and Li Baihu had different thoughts. They returned to the Mansion to guard against the Qingluo female ghost.
Cao Xiwan also sighed. It was really inconvenient that her neighbor was a spy. If she wasn't an old lady, something would have happened a long time ago.
She went home and closed the courtyard door, and someone behind her called her: "Hello."
She turned around and saw a gray-robed figure standing under the jujube tree in the morning mist. Feng Xiaochu.
Cao Xiwan nodded: "Don't worry, he left. He didn't follow you."
Whispering and sneaking, Cao Xiwan stuffed Feng Xiaochu into her room. Before closing the door, she looked around at the four courtyard walls and then carefully closed the door tightly.
The first ray of morning light shines in front of the window.
The room is spotless. Either her mother came back or Sister Hong came to clean it yesterday.
Cao Xiwan didn't dare to open the window, but she touched Feng Xiaochu's gray robe: "Isn't it cold?"
After covering his face with a mask, Feng Xiaochu looked at her with dark eyes: "You are so ugly. If you hadn't liked to hang on the edge of the roof like a monkey, I really wouldn't have recognized you."
"I'm in disguise!" She was able to communicate with Feng Xiaochu very early, and it was also because of Feng Xiaochu that she discovered the Qingyin Zhengqi Jue, which was quite useful.
But Cao Xiwan felt a little worried.
Feng Xiaochu came at the wrong time.
Forget it, he bumped into Liu Ruhai, he was not discovered.
But if she insists on following her to Chen Ming's house to date her old lover, will she agree or not?
The morning light shines through the window pane, and the light golden spots fall on her bed.
Cao Xiwan closed the door, put down the rice bucket, and touched the porcelain bottle of hot water on the Kang table. It was still warm.
Sister Hong is really a reliable and diligent helper. No wonder her daily wages are more than her eighth sister-in-law.
"You go up to the kang and sit down. I'll pour some water for you to drink." She was busy, pouring out two cups of warm water. Anyway, she could still rest for an hour. The medical ghost Chen Ming would never go to the Yamen at dawn.
The room was half-dark and still gray. Feng Xiaochu held a warm cup with his slender fingers and sat cross-legged on the kang in Cao Xi's evening room, wrapped in a quilt.
She didn't feel cold, but there was a kind of coldness in the world, and Cao Xiwan felt that she must be cold.
Because of Liu Ruhai's treatment and the Qingyin Zhengqi technique taught to her by Cao Xiwan, she had already regained consciousness. Although she was not able to move freely, her condition was better than her appearance.
——She is Cao Xiwan's companion and was ordered to lurk next to Liu Ruhai.
"Liu Ruhai didn't notice that I was pretending." Feng Xiaochu was still puzzled, "His medical skills are really superb."
"You are so clever. If you are stronger, you will be as wise and brave as me."
"..."
"Besides, he has never practiced puppetry by himself before, so of course he is not sure about your pulse. It won't be so easy next time." Cao Xiwan drank all the water in the thermos bottle and smiled, "We
They are both so clever."
"..." Feng Xiaochu endured it, "You are still the same as before."
"Really? Still so beautiful?"
"..."
The light in the room was getting brighter, and Cao Xiwan was busy opening boxes and changing clothes. She was so cold. Feng Xiaochu said: "Liu Ruhai is a spy."
Cao Xiwan unbuttoned her buttons and nodded without looking back: "Did you see it?"
"Yes." Feng Xiaochu said slowly, "Liu Ruhai in Prince Zhou's Mansion is now a substitute. I originally thought he had left the capital. I didn't expect that he was hiding here."
Cao Xiwan turned around in shock and stopped moving.
She turned around and continued to take off her clothes, taking off her duck hair vest, and then came over to look at Xiao Chu: "Okay, that's enough. You can come back and live here with me. In a few days, you can live in my shop in the south of the city.
.I see his movements, he is indeed leaving the capital."
She finally understood why he secretly returned to this small courtyard.
Compared with leaving the city directly from Prince Zhou's Mansion, this place is closer to the city gate. If you leave the city before dawn, you will not be easily targeted by the police.
