Chapter 194 Fear
Young Master Yan put away the joking look he had shown before and said in a serious voice, "What you did the day before yesterday was your brother's doing."
Xie Fengyue originally had this conjecture in her mind, but when he mentioned it like this, her heart still skipped a beat.
"Where's the evidence?" she asked.
Gongzi Yan did not hide it, and directly took out two thumb-sized wooden signs from his sleeves. The signs were dark and looked like fragments of wood at first glance: "This is the communication between your brother and Shi Zian. "Token." He turned the sign over and pointed at the small pattern on the bottom: "This looks familiar to you."
Xie Fengyue took it without saying a word, and after looking at it for a long time, she silently put it down.
The pattern was naturally familiar to her. It was her brother's favorite gladiolus. After he joined the ethnic group, he learned an article praising orchids. The article said, "This is the flower that has been serene through the ages. If you don't want to hear it, you will only see the haze."< br>
In his youthful spirit, he immediately went to Fangshi and picked out a gladioli, which was the most valuable in the small place of Pei County. He took good care of it for many days before it bloomed. From then on, he fell in love with the flower, and wore it on his clothes and ornaments. They are found on purses and even on small items such as hairpins and folding fans.
It's funny now that she thinks about it. The article was probably meant to be a warning for people to escape from officialdom and seek fame and wealth. But when it came to her brother, she was trying to reach the peak of power.
"Is there any connection between these two wooden plaques?" Xie Fengyue still had a sneer on her face, as if she didn't care at all.
Gongzi Yan was surprised by her performance. When he talked about his mother and brother with her before, her attitude was obviously full of nostalgia and hope, but now she looked like this sneer.
"This was found in the dark alley corner where Li Xiaobao had an accident."
After Xie Fengyue said a faint "Oh", she started playing with the round fan in her hand.
Gongzi Yan asked curiously: "Don't you have any opinion on this matter?"
Although Xie Fengyue raised his head, his fingernails coated with bright pink were still scratching on the silk fan: "What can I think about now that things have come to this? He has already done this. Is it possible that I can put a knife to him now?" Why would he attack his own sister?"
After finishing speaking, Xie Fengyue smiled: "Or do you think I am such an impulsive and brainless person?"
Gongzi Yan didn't think so. He knew that Xie Fengyue was alert, intelligent and able to judge the right times. He would definitely not be able to go and ask for an explanation without any preparation. He was surprised as to why she changed so quickly.
Xie Fengyue is not a roundworm in his stomach, not to mention that she is still a little worried about what happened before, so naturally she doesn't want to talk to him now.
Seeing that he didn't ask any more questions, Xie Fengyue also dismissed him neatly: "Thank you, Mr. Lang, for helping me find out the cause of the matter. I'm a little tired. Mr. Sir, please go back home early."
Young Master Yan was stunned for a moment.
Every time he helped her in the past, she would try her best to please him and compliment him. Although these things were not from the girl's sincerity, he just liked to see the girl's appearance of not wanting to do something but having to do it, but today it was... Drive people away without mercy.
A nameless fear suddenly struck, and the trembling Gongzi Yan's fingertips trembled. He felt that Xie Fengyue was different from before. It seemed that he was no longer needed by him. He seemed to have almost lost even her fake flattery. .
"Don't you have anything else to say?" Gongzi Yan spoke very slowly, clearly enunciating his words, and his tone was a bit drawn out, as if he was afraid of hearing rejection.
Xie Fengyue lowered her head and closed her eyes, kneading her brows and said perfunctorily: "Please, Sir, please close the door when you go out. The sun is too strong today, and the ice basin will melt in a short time."
Gongzi Yan's face turned pale. The black hair seal was clearly black and white. After a long time, he softly said: "Okay"
The sunny weather that lasted for nearly half a month made Shengjing City extremely hot.
This half month is a rare and leisurely day for Xie Fengyue. Good news came frequently from Ye Wan's drug store. Several Madams from Chunlou placed orders with her, and even many customers came from other markets. She also developed some ingenious prescriptions that can make the young lady's skin delicate. In the past half month, the guy has recruited three times in a row.
After she made money and received dividends, her expressionless face now told her this with a smile.
After Xie Fengyue heard what she said, she joked that she was too poor to laugh.
Maybe it's because good luck can't be stopped. When a letter came from Taifu Xie, he mentioned that Chen County had a new batch of soldiers who had been training for two or three months. After picking and choosing among them, he actually gave Xie Fengyue a full one. One hundred and forty people.
She quickly asked Li Xiaobao to return to the Princess's Mansion.
Li Xiaobao had just returned home from Ye Wan's medicine shop when he was driven into a carriage by Xie Fengyue. Afterwards, he was asked to put on new clothes and a set of uniforms like a commander of the government soldiers.
When he was sitting in the carriage, he didn't even know where to place his hands and feet. After looking down at the clothes on his body, he looked at the girl with smiles on her eyes and brows. After looking blank for a long time, he He tentatively opened his mouth, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to ask.
Xie Fengyue saw that he looked like a monk who was just two feet tall and was confused, and raised the corners of his mouth again: "You will soon be able to be the commander of the army again. These days, you have only been a coachman by my side, which is wronging you."
Li Xiaobao's eyes widened, and a look of confusion appeared on his fierce-looking face, which was instantly replaced by horror. He spoke in a hurry, almost biting his tongue: "Girl, it's because I didn't catch her when we were in the dark alley. Those people think I have neglected my duty, so do they want to give me away?”
"Ah?" Xie Fengyue was confused, "What's your idea? How could I give you away?"
Li Xiaobao was still worried, and he wanted to take off his coat regardless of etiquette: "I have already decided that the girl is my master. If a loyal servant does not serve the second master, how can I, Li Xiaobao, lead the army?"
Only then did Xie Fengyue understand. She put down the tea cup in her hand and said with a smile: "Hurry up and put on your clothes. You are really thinking too much. I am taking you to meet my soldiers. You will be that person in the future." The leader of a hundred and forty people is still ignorant.”
During the conversation, the two arrived at Xie's mansion.
At this time, there was already a man who looked like a soldier with a long halberd waiting at the door.
After following him around for more than half an hour, several people arrived at the martial arts training ground of Xie Mansion.
The rows of low tiled houses look out of place with the pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings of the Xie Mansion.
He then introduced himself: "Young military instructor of Chen County, just call me Zhang Er."
Xie Fengyue is now so hot that her brain hurts. She now regrets very much why she had to come to check it out together.
She pursed her dry lips and said in a hoarse voice: "Where are my people?"
Zhang Er immediately knelt down and confessed: "I hope you will forgive me, young lady"
Xie Fengyue was so frightened by his hesitant words that she almost lost her soul and scolded: "If you have anything to say, just say it!"
