When they arrived at the gate of the city, the carriage paused for a moment. I don't know what they said to the defenders, or what they looked at. Without saying anything, the defenders opened the gate and let the carriage out of the city.
Su Yixin didn't think much and gathered her energy to follow.
Generally speaking, towns have four gates: southeast, northwest and northwest. Wangjia Village is in the southwest of Yuyuan Town. The one who enters Yuyuan Town is through the south gate, and the one who leaves the city now is through the east gate.
After exiting the east gate, turn to the southeast after one mile, and follow this direction for the rest of the journey.
Su Yixin followed not far or near.
About half an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of a village.
Su Yixin estimated based on the carriage's speed and time that it should be seven or eight miles away from Yuanyuan Town.
At the door, there was a young man dressed as a boy sitting on the steps holding a lantern and waiting. When he saw the carriage, he immediately got up and put the lantern close to the carriage to give the old woman light.
The old woman got out of the carriage with the arm handed over by the young man. Suddenly a gust of wind blew and the lantern was blown left and right.
The old woman tightened her clothes and asked, "Is anyone here?"
The young man led the way with his body half sideways. Hearing the old woman's inquiry, he hurriedly said: "Go back to the old lady. He has already arrived and has arranged for him to stay."
"Well, I'm tired today. I'll ask him to come see me tomorrow."
The two gradually walked away, and Su Yixin stood on a big tree outside Zhuangzi, hesitating whether to go in or not.
Finally, he stuck the invisibility charm on and followed.
The invisibility talisman was given to her by Li Zhengzhen just in case she needed to run away. She couldn't draw such a difficult talisman as the invisibility talisman at her current level.
Zhuangzi occupies a large area, and the old woman walked for nearly two quarters of an hour before entering the courtyard.
With the arrival of the old woman, Zhuangzi's room immediately brightened up. Servants and women came and went, and food and hot water were brought into the room in an orderly manner.
Su Yixin watched for a while, then left the room, ready to look around.
If we could find the person the old woman was talking about, we might be able to get more clues.
After finding two rooms, Su Yixin felt slight fluctuations in spiritual energy when approaching the third room. Spiritual energy is a natural gas that can make people feel comfortable throughout the body.
But this fluctuation of spiritual power makes people feel cold all over, with a cold air.
Su Yixin hid around the corner and quietly poked a small hole in the window paper.
Sitting on the bed was a man wearing black clothes and a mask. Judging from his stature, he should be a man. He was practicing at this time.
Su Yixin couldn't see through the man's cultivation, but she saw a black energy hovering around him. He made a secret with his fingers. As if on command, the black energy began to enter his body along his nose, exposing the masked man's skin. , twisted strangely, and the masked man's breathing began to be disordered, as if he was enduring extreme pain.
This situation lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour.
After all the black energy around his body had completely entered his body, the masked man performed the seal again, and his exposed skin gradually returned to normal.
During the first sealing, Su Yixin hadn't noticed yet. This time the masked man raised his hand, and Su Yixin's eyes fell on the masked man's right hand, thoughtfully.
Su Yixin quietly left the masked man's room and came to the old woman's room again.
The old woman had already eaten a few bites of dinner and was now taking a bath in the tub. Su Yixin was not interested in watching, and looked around the room with her hands behind her back.
It was just boring and killing time, but she didn't expect to find something useful.
The title deed of the house on Desheng Street.
During the Taizong period of the Song Dynasty, false land deeds were rampant, and misappropriation of houses and land was common. Officials once wrote to Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty, suggesting that real estate such as houses and land should be registered. It will be regarded as a false contract.
Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty accepted his suggestion and issued an imperial edict: The land in Yidangzhuang should be sold in pawn. From now on, four contracts should be signed, one to pay the owner, one to pay the owner, one to pay the commercial tax bureau, and one to stay in the county. Violators will be treated as follows: Law.
Let’s talk about whether it is a real estate sale or a real estate mortgage, four contracts must be signed, one for the buyer, one for the seller, one for the Commercial and Taxation Institute, which is the later tax bureau, for filing, and one for the county government for filing. , otherwise it will be punished as illegal.
The promulgation of the imperial edict has effectively reduced property rights disputes and prevented plunder.
However, this imperial edict has not been effectively implemented. People still rarely go to the county government to register. Even if they register, the name of the buyer is rarely left.
Although the title deed did not contain the name of the buyer, it was in the hands of the old woman, which meant that the yard did not belong to her, and it also had an ongoing connection with her.
By now, it is almost impossible to say that Bai Shiqian's matter has nothing to do with her.
Su Yixin put the land deed in her chest, left Zhuangzi, and returned to Bai's house.
Li Zhengzhen returned to Bai's house from that house a long time ago. He waited and waited for Su Yixin to come back, but he still didn't come back. He was very anxious. If it hadn't been for Liu Ha Lazi who saw Luo Wushang sleeping, he would have been unable to sit still.
Gu Qingjue was not in the mood to read, so he came to the courtyard and sat alone on the stone bench, staring at the courtyard door, motionless.
When I saw the child, the crescent moon rose into the sky, and Su Yixin came back.
Gu Qingjue stood up and rushed to Su Yixin with a quick stride.
"Are you injured?"
Gu Qingjue pulled Su Yixin and checked her from top to bottom. When she saw that there was only some moss on her body, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother has been back a long time ago. Did you find something? It's so late."
Su Yixin blinked and caught a glimpse of Gu Qingjue's worried eyes, which showed even more seriousness. At this time, he was still sitting in the yard. Without thinking, he knew that he was waiting for her.
I felt a little strange in my heart.
She moistened her throat with saliva: "Well, I made an unexpected discovery. Since my brother is back, you should go back to your room and rest."
Running back and forth, even though Su Yixin had been practicing for half a month, she was still a little tired.
Go back to the room, simply wash up and go to sleep.
I still got up at the beginning of the morning to practice. After practicing, I sat at the table and drew the portrait of the old woman yesterday.
At this time, the maid brought hot water. After Su Yixin washed up, she said hello to Gu Qingjue who had just finished practicing martial arts and went straight to Luo's courtyard.
Bai Yuannian only had his first wife, Luo Shi, so she would definitely stay there at night.
The couple were worried about their son and couldn't sleep well at night. They got up early. If they weren't afraid of disturbing Su Yixin, they would have gone to find Su Yixin.
"Master, have you thought of a way to save Qian'er?"
"You guys take a look at this first."
Only then did Bai Yuannian and his wife notice that Su Yixin was holding a rolled up drawing paper in her hand.
The two quickly led the person to the study.
Su Yixin took out the portrait she had just painted in the morning and spread it on the table. Luo Shi took a look and said in surprise: "Master, why do you have a portrait of my eldest aunt?"
Bai Yuannian nodded in agreement: "Yes, my sister married far away in Gaoping County. Due to her grandson's serious illness, my sister was not able to come back to see her mother on the first day of this year. How did you get my sister's portrait?"
Su Yixin's purpose is just to confirm.
Now that Bai Yuannian has personally confirmed it, he naturally wants to tell him what he discovered last night so that he can be mentally prepared.
