Ye Laosan went to see Lou Xiping dejectedly. Lou Xiping asked: "Have you got what I want?"

Seeing Gao Yan there, Ye Laosan said nothing.

Lou Xiping said directly: "King Changshan is not an outsider, just tell me!"

Ye Laosan hesitated: "She ran away."

Lou Xiping was furious after hearing this: "What? Run away? Why did a lowly beggar run away? Doesn't she know Kung Fu? Who swore to me in the first place that he would vent his anger on me?"

Ye Laosan could only say: "If it weren't for the help of experts, I would have succeeded."

Lou Xiping didn't believe it: "What master? Did you do it at Gongsun Yu's house?" he asked nervously.

Ye Laosan explained, "Of course it's not Gongsun Mansion, it's on the street. It's my junior sister Xiao Yuzhu. She was there at the time. I'm naturally injured and can't fight against it. So..."

Lou Xiping glared at Ye Laosan fiercely at this time and said: "You are recuperating in my house. I am not raising a dog. Do you know what will happen to a worthless person?"

Ye Laosan hurriedly said: "Please don't worry, General. I, Ye Laosan, will never forget the kindness that the general has shown me. I will definitely kill that beggar."

Lou Xiping said angrily: "You have no chance." He said with murderous intent on his face.

Ye Laosan was injured and was a little timid when he saw Lou Xiping's murderous intent.

Gao Yan immediately stopped Lou Xiping and said to him: "The four masters of Gufeng Hall are all top killers. Ye Laosan is injured, so of course he can't fight against people of the same status, but it's rare to have such a heart."

Lou Xiping knew that he was interceding for Ye Laosan, and it was not easy to save face, so he asked Ye Laosan to retreat and recuperate.

Before Lou Xiping could ask why, Gao Yan asked anxiously: "You actually sent someone to kill Qi'er?"

Lou Xiping could hear Gao Yan's anxiety and said angrily: "I have disliked her for a long time. I just want her head. If I didn't succeed this time, it doesn't mean it won't succeed next time." After speaking, he paused and seemed to notice something, so he asked : "Do you like that girl?"

Gao Yan knew that Lou Xiping didn't like Qi'er, but he was his good partner. How could he give up this good partner for someone he just liked. He knows that this partner can give him what he wants, a woman and a man who is beneficial to his rights. The pros and cons are clear at a glance.

Gao Yan smiled and said: "I just think she is special and I have a slight affection for her, but I can't say I like her. I am worried that Qi'er has been in Gongsun Mansion all the time, and I am afraid that you will cause trouble."

Lou Xiping guessed from his many years of contact with Gao Yan that he might like Qi'er, but he was still willing to be friends with him. He was still pleased and said: "Gongsun Yu will be eliminated sooner or later for us. However, those who have achieved great things cannot have the love of children." .”

Gao Yan knew why Lou Xiping hated Gongsun Yu so much. Didn't he hate Gongsun Yu so much because of the love between his children? Smiling without saying a word.

Lou Xiping asked again: "Why don't you want me to deal with Ye Laosan? He is the only one left in Gufengtang. Although the last plan failed, fortunately the news did not get out. If we get rid of him, we don't have to worry about future troubles."

Gao Yan smiled and said: "The people in Gufengtang are famous for being killers who accept money but not fate. We need people like this now. Although Ye Laosan's injury has not healed yet, he will recover if he is nursed back to health, and he will be useful to us. .”

Lou Xiping thought it was reasonable and agreed to keep Ye Laosan.

As soon as Qi'er came back, someone informed Gongsun Yu that Qi'er was assassinated on the street. Fortunately, there was a master protecting him, so Gongsun Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Luan Yue looked at Gongsun Yu's nonchalant look on the surface, but she was actually very worried about Qi'er, and deliberately said to the side: "I was just accidentally knocked unconscious by a splashing stone, and when I came back, I was jumping up and down and telling stories to those maids in Xia Zhu. .”

Gongsun Yu listened to Luan Yue's words. On the surface, what he said seemed unimportant. In fact, he felt more relieved, but he was still thinking about it for some reason.

Gongsun Yu always felt that Qi'er had something hidden.

The better Qi'er is to Gongsun Yu, Gongsun Yu knows that Qi'er's flattery to him is not a true show of kindness. But it is a purpose. Thinking about Qi'er, I feel confused. Lou Xiping sent people to kill her, so she is not from the Lou faction. So what is his purpose of getting close to me?

"Huifangzhai's dim sum is not affordable for ordinary people. How much do you get per month?" Gongsun Yu said.

"Yes, Young Master's analysis is very reasonable. Indeed, Qi'er has not considered spending money."

Especially her eyes, which are never humble and never angry. When Gongsun Yu thought about it, her eyes were even more clever and eccentric, and he felt that they were a little bit cute. This is a rare temperament for many girls.

Gongsun Yu asked again: "How was the investigation of Qi'er's matter?"

Luan Yue pondered for a moment and said: "After checking the information from all parties, everything listed has clear results. The only unclear result is that Yang Caixuan, a concubine in Prime Minister Yang's mansion, said that she drowned after going to the temple to burn incense and was assassinated, but she disappeared. Corpse. I also heard that the third young lady was so tall that she could be admired all over the country." Thinking of Qi'er's appearance, she probably has no equal in the whole country. But when I thought about it, I even doubted it: "Qi'er could be the third lady of the prime minister's house?" I didn't believe this.

Gongsun Yu glanced at Luan Yue, and Luan Yue said to herself: "Actually, I don't think it's possible. Qi'er's speech and behavior don't look like a boudoir lady, let alone the prime minister's daughter."

Gongsun Yu immediately thought that that day in the flower hall, Qi'er's behavior and etiquette when she changed into her daughter's clothes were clearly the standards of a lady from a famous family, and it seemed right, but her personality was not like that of a boudoir lady! Could it be that she was deliberately disguising?

"Dead by drowning, no body found?" Gongsun Yu thought about the time when Lou Xiping pushed Qi'er into the water. Qi'er was indeed very good at water.

Luan Yue added: "According to the report from the Secret Council, there is almost no trace of Gufengtang."

Gongsun Yu said: "Those who assassinated the new emperor were all dead soldiers. They were all highly skilled in martial arts and were by no means good. It seems that the Lou faction had a premeditated plan, and the imperial guards were leaderless that day and were unable to attack. This time, the plan is to kill Gufengtang. They will not be lured by money to assassinate the new emperor for the time being. But how did Qi'er know?"

Luan Yue said: "It was Ye Laosan who was chasing Qi'er. He was seriously injured after the last accident and has been recuperating at Lou Xiping's house. Lou Xiping has always disliked Qi'er, and Ye Laosan wanted to help him To get rid of Qi'er, he didn't expect Xiao Yuzhu to stop him. He was injured and naturally couldn't defeat him. By the way, last time he assassinated the new emperor, Ye Laosan had approached Xiao Yuzhu. It was probably because Xiao Yuzhu did not agree to participate and told Qi'er the news. If Qi'er has something to do with Gufengtang. She wasn't greedy for money, so could she be an informant sent by Empress Dowager Lou? Could Qi'er be Empress Dowager Lou's person?"

"Lou Xiping has an insider planted in Jingyi Pavilion. If Qi'er is a member of the Empress Dowager Lou, and Lou Xiping is her confidant, she should know this. There is no need for Qi'er to ask Yuzhu." Gongsun Yu thought about it and said: "Qi'er If Er is from the Lou faction, it makes no sense for Lou Xiping to be so hostile to Qi'er. Are they deliberately hostile? Want me to keep Qi'er? No, they are not sure that I will keep her in the house. If so, Qi'er didn't do it last time either Tell us about the assassination. If it was really the Lou faction, Lou Xiping wouldn't have insisted on putting Qi'er to death.

Luan Yue continued: "Xia Zhu said that she inquired about Netherworld Lotus and often wandered around Yi'anju. She was probably chasing Netherworld Lotus."

Gongsun Yu thought thoughtfully: "Is the purpose of Qi'er coming to Gongsun Mansion for the Netherworld Lotus? What's the use of her wanting the Netherworld Lotus? Will there be other people instigating it? Xiao Yuzhu once stole the Netherworld Lotus under Qi'er's instigation?"

Gongsun Yu thought deeply and said: "It's not her! The person who stole the Nether Lotus last time was someone sent by the Empress Dowager Lou. Could it be Xiao Yuzhu that time? In order to weaken the power of Gongsun's house. Ye Laosan is now in Lou Xiping's house. "Why don't Xiao Yuzhu and Ye Laosan join forces?" He was thinking about something thoughtfully.

Luan Yue didn't understand Youdao: "The people in Gufengtang are famous for recognizing money but not people. Even his fellow disciples are ruthless, but why do you follow Qi'er?"

Gongsun Yu glanced at Luan Yue and said thoughtfully: "Yes! Why is the top killer of Gufengtang willing to be a maid for Qi'er? What is the relationship between Qi'er and Gufengtang? Now Gufengtang is already crumbling. It can’t make big waves.”

"I fought against the man in black. Do you want me to try Xiao Yuzhu another day?" Luan Yue asked.

Gongsun Yu stopped him and said, "Don't do it for the time being, lest I frighten the enemy."

Luan Yue said: "Then Qi'er is doing it for money?"

Gongsun Yu said coldly: "I have observed that Qi'er loves money but is not greedy for it. There is a top killer beside him who is still looking for Nether Lotus. This Qi'er must have a premeditated plan." Gongsun Yu shook the teacup and asked again: "Two What did she do years ago?”

Luan Yue hesitated and said, "I didn't find out. She seemed to appear suddenly, hiding everything before."

Gongsun Yu asked again: "Has there been a thorough investigation into the Northern Zhou Dynasty and our old enemy?"

Luan Yue said: "This has been confirmed. There has been no movement in the past two years. I guess Qi'er is not an enemy spy."

The matter of Qi'er has not yet been found out. Gongsun Yu felt a little relieved when he heard that it was not an enemy spy or a Lou sect, and he was also surprised that the secret was very deep!

Luan Yue couldn't help but said: "Do you like the young master? Do you see the way she looks at the young master? She keeps looking at you?"

Gongsun Yu paused and asked coldly: "Do you believe what you just said?"

Luan Yue thought about the way Qi'er looked at Gongsun Yu, and said bluntly: "But Qi'er is also very strange. Could it be that she likes the young master's clothes?"

Gongsun Yu said helplessly: "Go and find out what she did two years ago? The Secret Privy Council has not found anything yet. There is also the Jingyi Pavilion. Pay more attention to it recently."

"Yes." Luan Yue naturally knew what to pay attention to, and she was observing Qi'er and Lou Xi's spy who was stationed in Jingyi Pavilion.
