The two of them chatted like this, and their relationship quickly became much closer. Naturally, they talked more and more, and Qingyun was also exploring and analyzing in his heart.
There were not many servants in the palace, and Yang Liu often didn't have anyone of his own age to talk to, so he couldn't just chat with the master and his wife.
Now that Butler Wang has passed away, the house was already depressed, so she kept chatting to Qingyun as if she had opened up a chat box:
"Hey, since Butler Wang left, I have been sad for a long time. Poor Butler Wang doesn't know what evil he has done. Although he is usually stingy, it is mostly for the sake of the house, but now he has been dead for so long before he is killed. People found out.”
Yang Liu shook his head and sighed sadly, Qingyun also asked curiously:
"Then how did Butler Wang die?"
"I heard that he was attacked by a wild beast, and I don't know what Butler Wang was doing in the forest. We asked the city lord for help, and it took us many days to find his body in the forest. At that time, we could only tell that he belonged to our house by his clothes. I didn’t dare to look at him when he was alive.”
At this point, Yang Liu couldn't speak anymore. She covered her mouth with her hands, not knowing whether it was fear or nausea.
"That's quite miserable and a pitiful man. Liu'er, what about your master? Why haven't we seen him for so long? I still want to see the immortal with my own eyes! That's an immortal! Hehe~"
Qingyun smiled slyly.
"What's there to see? The master is not good-looking, but you are much prettier than him! Ahem, it seems like some distinguished guests have come to the house in the past two days. The master went out with him a few days ago. I don't know when he will come back. , so don’t think about it for now, wait until you have the opportunity in the future, I’m sure you’ll want to vomit just looking at it, hehe~”
Thinking of the comment she had just made about Qingyun's appearance, and the idea that she could beg his wife to bring Qingyun over later, Yang Liu felt a little shy, looking particularly alluring in this spring day.
It's just that Qingyun didn't seem to be interested in her shy appearance at all, which made Yang Liu curse in his heart why Qingyun was so ignorant. But if Yang Liu knew how beautiful Yan Nanzhi was, who grew up with Qingyun since childhood, he might not have that confidence.
But even Qingyun felt that time did fly by having a female companion chatting with him.
The two of them placed all the medicinal materials in a blink of an eye, and then drank tea at Yangliu's invitation to help clean up the warehouse. The sunset had quietly hung high in the sky.
In the subsequent tests, Qingyun did not get any useful clues. He felt that Yang Liu would not lie to him. Of course, unless it was the kind of thing that Mr. Wang and his wife had promised not to be leaked, Yang Liu would never say anything.
At present, Qingyun feels that he can't find any valuable clues from her.
Fortunately, he later got a useful piece of information, that is, it turned out that there was an Immortal Family Array in the backyard of the palace.
I heard from Yang Liu that it is called a teleportation array, which can quickly transfer people from one place to another. It is more powerful than the legendary horse that travels thousands of miles a day. It is worthy of being a fairy.
But the teleportation array has always been managed by Butler Wang. Now that Butler Wang is dead and Mr. Wang is not here, no one in the house or even in the entire city dares to touch this. Even if they dare, they won't use it. This makes Qingyun prepare to borrow it secretly. The idea was ruined.
Then, he also learned that the largest cultivation sect in Liangzhou was Qingxutian, which commanded the major towns in Liangzhou. There were also countless other small cultivation sects in Liangzhou that were attached to Qingxutian, or worked for Qingxutian. Take charge of some smaller towns.
Of course, he definitely doesn't know the names of these small sects now, because Yang Liu doesn't know them at all. Although clues like these are not of much use, Qingyun has taken them seriously in his heart.
In Yangliu's reluctant and resentful eyes, Qingyun lowered his head and left the palace silently.
Although he got some news this time, he still felt like he was in a cloud. Fortunately, he kept comforting himself that at least he knew the three words "Qingxu Tian", and it seemed that the Immortal Sword Sect was also attacking Zhongcheng.
"It seems that I won't be able to stay for long. I will continue to travel far away. I need to help Uncle Chen more and save some wages along the way."
Qingyun thought so.
"Qingyun will come to play often in the future. When you come next time, Liu'er will treat you to some cakes I made myself!"
Seeing that Qingyun had already gotten into the car and walked away without any intention of looking back, Yang Liu could not suppress the throbbing in his heart and waved his hand and shouted.
"Okay Liu'er, I'll come when I'm free!"
Yang Liu's spring-filled voice echoed in his ears. Qingyun finally turned around and smiled bitterly at Yang Liu. He had reached the age of ignorance and could somewhat feel the different flavor in the tone of the pink-clothed girl.
But since he has planned to travel far away, if there is no hope of revenge, he may never see her again in this life.
Some people say that if a budding relationship is found to be inappropriate, it should be cut off immediately. The long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain. But it has already sprouted, so why not let it continue to grow and spread out its bright branches?
Little do we know that the feelings of youth, even if they only experience one wind blow or one rain blow, some people are afraid that it will hurt them for the rest of their lives.
Qingyun didn't dare to understand, so he just sat in the car, staring blankly at the sunset, imagining that the sunset could take him home.
By the time they drove the carriage back to Chen Mansion, Qianzhong City had already set up a lively night market.
"Xiao Qingyun, where have you been? Oh no, the master and the lady are both looking for you!"
As soon as Qingyun stepped into the Chen Mansion, a servant who was usually nice to him hurriedly winked at him and said.
"What can be the matter? Brother Xu, I just returned from delivering goods and I have been in the Chen Mansion just now."
Qingyun asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"We don't know either, but seeing the lady making a lot of noise inside, I'm afraid it's not a good thing. You also know who the lady is. Hey, go quickly and don't delay, otherwise the lady will lose her temper again!"
As soon as the servant surnamed Xu finished speaking, he quickly helped Qingyun wait for the carriage and horses to the stable, and kept urging him to hurry over. It seemed that something serious had really happened.
"What happened? You're so angry."
Seeing Brother Xu's anxious look, Qingyun hurriedly ran to the back hall. What he didn't know was that at this time, Miss Quan'er was digging a hole and waiting for him to jump into it.
Rushing to the back hall in a hurry, Qingyun found Chen Defu sitting in the room with a helpless look on his face, while Chen Quan'er, still wearing fur clothes, stood beside him with his hands on his hips, not only sneering at him, but also the manager of the warehouse. In the house.
Seeing that so many people seemed to be waiting for him, Qingyun, who didn't know the truth, quickly entered the room and saluted:
"Master, Miss, Qingyun went to deliver goods to the Chen Mansion in the afternoon, and by the way, he helped Chen Mansion's maid Yang Liu clean up, so I came back late. I'm very sorry!"
As usual, Qingyun adhered to the spirit of not being offended but also unable to avoid it, and admitted his mistake in advance to prevent the female devil from getting angry again. However, before the master could say anything, Chen Quan'er spoke at the top of her voice:
"You are such a wild boy. You dared to steal my pearls while you were delivering goods to the palace. Tell me! Where did you hide the pearls?"
Chen Quan'er's voice was already high-pitched, but now she shouted at the top of her voice, which made everyone present's eardrums hurt.
Qingyun was shocked when he heard that Chen Quan'er said that he had stolen something from the house, so he immediately straightened up and defended:
"No, Miss, how could Qingyun steal pearls? Master, the steward of the warehouse is also here. I consulted with him before I left. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."
Qingyun was also anxious, because he had never been wronged since he was a child, and he was not the kind of villain to commit theft. Besides, I haven't done it at all, and I don't know what illness Chen Quan'er had today.
At this time, Mr. Steward was about to speak, but was interrupted by Chen Defu waving his hand. Old Chen said slowly:
"Qingyun, you don't need to explain. Manager Li has just told us about this. When he checked the warehouse at night, he did find that a pearl was missing, so he reported it to Quan'er who was passing by. According to him, the pearl was indeed missing. I found it missing after you left."
Hearing the tone of Chen Defu's words that seemed to be quite firm, Qingyun couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart, secretly thinking that the master might have believed what the steward and the lady said.
But I have never been to the area where the pearls are placed. How could this so-called pearl be lost? However, Chen Defu suddenly changed the subject as he spoke, and said:
"However, this does not mean that the pearl was stolen by Qingyun. Besides, when Manager Li reported to Quan'er, he did not say that he saw Qingyun steal the pearl with his own eyes, and it was only discovered after counting that it was probably after Qingyun left. There have been some unknown changes in the period since then, so we can’t draw any conclusions yet.”
In fact, Old Chen is also a sensible person. Regardless of whether Qingyun took the pearl or not, it is now clear that his precious daughter does not like Qingyun, and Manager Li is just following her orders.
Besides, he didn't believe in his heart that Qingyun would steal a very common medicinal pearl, because with his current knowledge, he could get more valuable medicinal materials from the warehouse, and there was no need to pay for a small pearl. Ruined his bright future.
Hearing that the master was still on his side in this matter, Qingyun couldn't help but take a deep breath.
On weekdays, the young lady often makes things difficult for him for no reason, but the master basically doesn't punish him, and at most he just says a few words, which makes Qingyun very uncomfortable. Unexpectedly, the master was very open-minded this time and did not believe Chen Quan'er's nonsense. He said that he was not surprised that it was false.
Qingyun was happy, but Chen Quaner was angry.
Originally, the secret channel finally had the opportunity to completely get rid of this kid. Not only sending him to the government, but at least kicking him out was a sure thing.
But in the end, the family thief drama that he worked so hard to create was actually taken away by his own father. If I had known better, I would have kept the pearl and ground it into powder, instead of asking someone to put it directly in Qingyun's room.
In this case, both the people and the people have gained the stolen goods. Even if the wild boy jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to escape. But looking at the current situation, it may be too late.
