Shi Xueqian replied casually: "I don't know, I didn't send anyone to follow your junior sister, how could I possibly know where she went."
"Oh, really?" Yanyou showed a half-smiling expression and wandered around the history room seemingly aimlessly.
"Why did I smell some vague fragrance of powder in Brother Shi's room?" When he said this, Yanyou suddenly showed a fierce look on his eyebrows.
"Brother Shi hasn't established a family yet. Naturally, he won't let maids come and go in this important military location. But he doesn't know where this powdery aura comes from?"
Yanyou put on a gloomy but extremely elegant smile, opened his nose and sniffed, then walked straight towards the cabinet and stopped in front of it.
"Brother Shi, shouldn't he be hiding his beauty in the golden house at this strategic military location?" Yanyou's gloomy smile gradually turned to teasing.
Shi Xueqian's face turned maroon, and he seemed extremely angry, saying: "That's enough! What on earth do you want to do?"
Yanyou smiled and shook his head, suddenly opened the cabinet, and uttered the word "Xian" unhurriedly.
However, there was nothing in the cabinet.
Yanyou's expression changed suddenly. He put his head into the cabinet and took a sniff, showing an expression of disbelief. Then he reached out and touched the neatly folded soap robe - it was still warm.
He immediately showed an extremely confused expression, but instantly restored his gentle smile and said, "It seems that I guessed wrong."
"In that case, you should go find my junior sister as soon as possible. She is a female and walks alone. It is best not to encounter any danger."
While talking, he walked up to Shi Xueqian again, took out his handkerchief, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said, "Look at you, why are you still sweating?"
He deliberately pressed Shi Xueqian's shoulder again and said, "Take good care of your injuries. I will report your illness to you tomorrow morning."
He lifted up his lapel, tucked the handkerchief into his sleeve, and left quickly.
At this moment, Lin Xixue was sitting in the pavilion before, eating cakes and sipping tea, pretending that nothing happened.
If you want to ask why she suddenly returned to Lixin Academy, it was naturally because she saw that her whereabouts were about to be exposed, so she used her magical feet to return directly from the Yunchui Guard Station to Lixin Academy.
As for why I wanted to return to Lixin Academy, there were actually many considerations.
At the moment, her use of the magical foot power is still very basic. Before entering and exiting the so-called realm, she needs to refine the scene to a very high level in her mind before she can succeed.
In Jingyun City, the place Lin Xixue was most familiar with was none other than Lixin Academy, Lu Er's study room.
She came out of the study, walked around in a long circle to the main entrance, and then pretended to have just come back. Then she was led to the pavilion where she had met with Banyou before.
Since the banquet has already become a hot topic, I might as well keep the same in the face of the ever-changing situation, follow the plan, pretend not to know, and see what kind of plan the banquet will come up with next.
Right now, his timely appearance at Lixin Academy can be used as his alibi.
However, she also understood in her heart that the prerequisite for her success in pretending to be stupid was that Lu Er had never told Yanyou that she had magical powers.
Only in this way can your alibi be established.
Of course, even if his plan failed and he could not hide it from Yanyou, he might not really be afraid of Yanyou in a head-on confrontation.
After all, he knew the mantra, but Yanyou didn't know about the many trump cards in his hand.
The only thing that puzzled her was that Yanyou had been staying in the pavilion by himself at that time. How on earth did he coordinate other ghosts to cooperate with his actions and inject the blood shadow into Shi Xueqian's body?
She looked at the guqin placed on the stone table in the pavilion, and her mind was slightly moved. Could it be that the signal during the banquet was transmitted through the sound of the piano?
She was shocked. She didn't expect that Yanyou would come up with this method of transmitting signals, which was similar to pulling a machine thread.
However, even if she guessed that Yanyou was probably playing the piano to convey information in person, she did not have the corresponding code book and could not understand the meaning of each string.
The transmission range of the sound of this piano is not large, and it is not like a machine wire. It can transmit information over a long distance regardless of space, which shows.
Within the coverage of the sound of the piano, there must be someone who can respond to Yanyou and assist him in transmitting the information further. As long as he catches this person, he can get this code book!
Thinking of this, Lin Xixue couldn't help but be secretly happy, and quietly waited for her return from the banquet.
Of course, while waiting, she had already bathed and changed clothes in advance, and also changed into different sizes of makeup.
After all, Yanyou has a very good nose. If she notices that the smell on her body is the same as the smell in Shi Xueqian's room, I'm afraid he will become suspicious again.
Not long after, Yanyou returned as scheduled. Lin Xixue quickly stood up and saluted: "Mr. Yan!"
When Yanyou saw her, he also pretended to be alright and said, "The girl went to the Yunchui Guard Station and didn't come back for a long time. This really worries me."
"So I just went to the station to inquire about the girl's whereabouts. I didn't expect that the girl had already come back. It was an error of circumstance and caused an inadvertent mistake."
"That's so! I left the Yunchui Guard station and went to the market for a stroll. I bought some makeup and came back to make my husband miss me."
"I'm just talking about why the smell of makeup on the girl's body has changed. It'll be fine if nothing happens. It'll be fine if nothing happens. But when it comes to this makeup, I know it very well. I wonder which brand the girl went to?"
Lin Xixue felt a shiver in her heart, knowing that Yanyou was already suspicious of her whereabouts, so she asked which rouge shop it was so that she could go to that rouge shop for verification later.
So she did not continue the conversation, but instead took the initiative to lead the topic: "Oh? I didn't expect that Mr. Yan also has a lot of research on this rouge and gouache?"
Yanyou's eyebrows narrowed, but then he returned to normal and said with a smile: "Do you know about the Qiongtai Bookstore in the north of the city?"
Lin Xixue was confused as to why the banquet took the initiative to mention the Qiongtai Book Apartment, but she still said calmly: "Although I have never been to such a romantic place in person, I have heard about it. Is it possible that your husband is also a frequent visitor?"
"Haha, this made the girl laugh. I am indeed a frequent visitor to this book residence, and many disciples of the Confucian sect are also frequent visitors here." Yanyou doesn't seem to shy away from this.
"I thought most of the Confucian disciples were strict in etiquette, but I didn't expect so many disciples to come in and out of this land of wind and moon?"
"The girl doesn't know something. Although this book residence is a place of romance, it is not like the ordinary fireworks and willow alleys. There are many strange women in it. They are good at playing, playing, playing, chess, calligraphy and painting. They are definitely not comparable to those vulgar. If the girl is interested, Why don’t I take you to see me some other time?”
Lin Xixue secretly thought that this book apartment was inextricably linked to the ghosts within the Confucian sect. It would be quite risky to enter hastily at this moment.
After weighing it for a while, she excused herself and said, "As a woman, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to go to such a romantic place."
