The sky is clear after the rain, the sky is vast, the valley is ethereal, the flowers and green trees have been washed clean by the rain, and they are swaying in the wind.
Xie Mengxia sat on the porch, looking at the green mountains in the distance, holding a black seed in one hand and a white seed in the other, thinking calmly for a moment.
The situation on the chessboard is stalemate, and the black and white pieces are very tight.
Xie Mengxia dropped a black stone on the chessboard.
The situation changed drastically in an instant, and White, who had a slight upper hand, suddenly became turbulent.
If any outsiders saw this scene, they would think they had seen a ghost.
The dandy prince, who had always been known to be uneducated and incompetent, could actually play chess, and he was so good at it.
This person is fake!
"How is it? Are everyone back?" Xie Mengxia didn't even raise his head when he heard the footsteps. He still looked at the chessboard, picked up the white pieces one by one and threw them into the white porcelain chess jar.
Zheyun nodded: "Sir, everyone is back and the situation has been laid out, everything is safe."
Xie Mengxia threw the last white piece into the chess jar and clapped his hands: "Okay, the stage has been set up. It's time for the opera singer to appear. Did Sheng Siyuan send the person there himself?"
"Yes," Zheyun was not surprised at all: "Sheng Siyuan hated An Jinyue so much that if she was given such a way to die, I'm afraid Sheng Siyuan still wouldn't be able to understand his hatred."
Xie Mengxia laughed easily: "Of course blood debts must be repaid with blood." He took a square sapphire blue satin-covered brocade box and handed it to Zheyun: "Give this to her and let Fuyu speak. ."
Zheyun responded respectfully.
After working all night, everyone was so hungry that they faced the hot and sumptuous food. Naturally, they had to shake their cheeks and eat with all their might.
"A Yao, eat slowly, you are the reincarnation of a starving ghost!" Bao Cheng knocked on the table: "Be gentle! What will you say to your husband's family in the future!"
"Pfft", He Denglu burst out laughing: "It's useless no matter how polite you are, Boss Yao."
Yao Yao glanced at the two of them, his mouth was full of oil, and he said unconvinced: "I'll throw you into that dark place and lock you up for three days. I'm afraid you're not as good as me!"
After drinking a bowl of mung bean soup to relieve the heat, Bao Cheng broke out in a sweat and realized something was wrong in the room. He asked, "Why are we the only three eating breakfast? Do they all drink dew?" "
"Another person is missing. The Chief Secretary has brought people to the scene." He Denglu swallowed his porridge and said, "Master Shaoyin continues to examine that Fuyu."
Yao Yao suddenly raised his head: "Who is missing?"
He Denglou put down his bowl, wiped his lips and said, "It's Aunt Liu from Marquis Anchang."
"Another pregnant woman?" Yao Yao was surprised.
He Dengglou nodded heavily: "That's right. Isn't this the unlucky mother who opened the door for me? I'm unlucky enough."
"Pfft", Bao Cheng burst out.
No need to ask, I must have learned this from Yao Yao.
Yao Yao was not in the mood to joke.
There are not many pregnant women on Yuhua Mountain, and all of them have a good background. If this group of people really comes for pregnant women, then this chaos will be revealed.
Just as she was thinking this, Leng Linjiang hurried in. He held a stack of paper in his hand, looked around the room, and finally put it in front of Yao Yao: "Take a look."
Yao Yao took it and glanced at it: "What is it?"
"The man I caught, Fu Yu, has done it." Leng Linjiang's face was so gloomy that his eyes watered down, and he was as ugly as a dead man: "You will know just by looking at them, they are a bunch of crazy beasts!"
Yao Yao's face suddenly changed as he read each word, and he was so shocked that his voice trembled: "This, this is too cruel!"
As a complete atheist, Yao Yao did not believe in ghosts and gods. What she originally wanted to say was that this was too unbelievable, but her inexplicable time travel was really too mocking, so she changed her words.
If Fu Yu's confession is not false, then what this group of people will do is to go against nature.
It's just that what he did was too bloody and cruel, but what he gained was a huge benefit!
In comparison, taking some risks is nothing.
She raised her head solemnly and thought: "Sir, according to what Fuyu said, the number of fetuses and blood essence required to set up the formation is huge. How many lives has she claimed to have killed in total?"
Leng Linjiang shook his head: "No, Fuyu said that she was only responsible for the final formation, and all the things needed for the formation were arranged by her sister Fuxiang." He paused slightly, and his face was particularly gloomy: " However, she also said that the things needed to set up the formation are almost ready, only two pregnant women with full Yin fate and one pregnant woman with Phoenix fate are left."
"Quan Yin's destiny, Phoenix's destiny," Yao Yao also saw this in the confession, murmured thoughtfully, and suddenly raised his voice: "He Denglou, you go to the chief minister and ask Aunt Liu's horoscope. ."
"Aunt Liu, which Aunt Liu?" Leng Linjiang said in surprise. He had just walked in and didn't know that another pregnant woman was missing.
Yao Yao said slowly: "It's Aunt Liu, the concubine of Marquis Anchang. She's missing. The Chief Minister went to investigate the case this morning."
This group of people committed crimes repeatedly, which was tantamount to provocation in Leng Linjiang's eyes. He grimaced and gritted his teeth: "Extremely arrogant!" He snatched the bamboo chopsticks from Yao Yao's hand and said, "Follow me over there to have a look, and we'll eat again when we come back."
Yao Yao reluctantly said "Hey": "It's cold when I come back."
Leng Linjiang took Yao Yao's hand and dragged her out: "When it gets cold, make it again. Jiuchao is not so poor that he can't even afford a meal!"
When they saw Leng Linjiang and Yao Yao both going out, Bao Cheng and He Dengglou could no longer eat with peace of mind, so they also put down their bowls and followed them out.
As a long-established aristocratic family that had fallen into decline, the Anchang Hou Mansion held on to its last bit of dignity and did not sell the villa located at the foot of Yuhua Mountain.
This summer vacation, you won’t have to squeeze into those royal villas rented to the outside world.
It's just that the Anchang Hou Mansion has fallen into decline. Although the other courtyard has not been preserved, all the valuable items that can be sold in the other courtyard have been sold. At a glance, there is not a single item that can be sold on the market.
Yao Yao walked and looked around, then clicked his tongue: "The Anchang Hou Mansion was ransacked?"
Leng Linjiang smiled: "I haven't heard of it. It looks like he was robbed."
Yao Yao curled his lips: "Fortunately, this is a robbery of wealth. If this is a robbery of sex, the Marquis is so handsome, he must be in trouble."
Leng Linjiang laughed out loud.
The two of them exchanged words with each other, making the Marquis of Anchang turn pale.
Marquis Anchang was so angry that he jumped up and down, but did not dare to get angry. He was so angry that he gnashed his teeth.
Leng Linjiang saw that Gong Huogong was almost done. He stood outside the door, glanced at the internal guards who were busy searching the room, and bowed his hands to Anchang Hou: "Master Hou, I heard that Aunt Liu in the house has disappeared. Some people have gone missing." I still need to ask the Marquis about the details."
Anchang Hou was stunned for a moment. His beloved concubine was lost. He was the master of suffering. Why did Leng Linjiang's words sound like there was something fishy about him.
He said angrily: "I rested elsewhere last night, and I only found out this morning. Master Shaoyin is afraid that I asked the wrong person."
His mood was extremely sad, but it didn't seem like he was grieving for Aunt Liu's disappearance, but more of grieving for the unborn child.
Yao Yao felt it was particularly strange. It seemed that Marquis Anchang didn't love Aunt Liu that much.
She thought for a while and asked: "Master Hou, apart from Aunt Liu, is there anyone else who is pregnant in the house?"
"What do you mean by this?" Anchang Hou exploded all of a sudden, his slightly dull eyes widened: "I, the Anchang Hou Mansion, are from a noble family, and the most important thing is rules and etiquette. How could I do such an immoral thing? Things!"
Yao Yao raised an eyebrow and stopped asking any more.
Because it's no longer necessary.
Although Anchang Hou showed an angry attitude, his eyes were wandering, his expression was nervous, and his hands unconsciously pinched his sleeves.
The guilty conscience was about to burst out.
It seemed that he already knew what An Jinyue had done, but he didn't know when and how he knew it.
Leng Linjiang also noticed something was wrong with Marquis Anchang, looked at each other with Yao Yao, and walked into the messy main room.
The internal guards always used unscrupulous means in their searches.
Han Changmu was sitting at the door, seemingly drinking tea slowly, but his eyes were always looking at the room alertly.
"Jiuchao," Leng Linjiang greeted Han Changmu and handed Han Changmu the fragrant confession.
Han Changmu read it word by word, his heart skipped a beat, he called Meng Suigai and whispered: "Go and check the horoscopes of Aunt Liu and An Jinyue."
Meng Suige said yes, turned around and went out.
Yao Yao watched Meng Suige walk out, his eyes narrowed slightly, feeling that something was slightly wrong.
"What's wrong? Is there anything unusual?" Leng Linjiang noticed that Yao Yao looked wrong and asked in a low voice.
Yao Yao thought thoughtfully and asked, "Sir, Commander Meng Qi's serious injury has healed, and can he do errands now?"
"Speaking of which, I have to thank you." Han Changmu said gently: "If you hadn't rescued him in time, Meng Suige's injury would have been irreversible. But fortunately, he was sent back in time yesterday and after treatment with medicine, he was able to get up. "
Yao Yao still felt something was wrong. She saw with her own eyes how serious Meng Sui's injury was at that time, so she knew it well. Even with such a serious injury, it was amazing to be able to get up overnight even if it was a panacea. Looking back now , can walk without any problems and can still do errands, what kind of medicine must this be!
She clicked her tongue: "This is really good medicine!"
That's what she said, but she still had doubts in her heart.
In just a few words, Meng Suige came back with the horoscopes of Aunt Liu and An Jinyue and handed them to Han Changmu.
Seeing Meng Suige's movements and the tone of his words, Yao Yao's face gradually darkened.
I finally understood where that weird feeling came from.
It's stiffness, yes, Meng Suige's whole body feels stiff.
It's like every move and speech is controlled by someone.
Yao Yao turned her head and looked at Han Changmu. She didn't believe that the hair-thin Han Changmu didn't notice this.
