I was Idle and Cool
Chapter 118: Little clue
"Madam, this subordinate has already sent someone out to inquire as you ordered."
After returning to the inn, He Xing made arrangements according to what Lu Jinxi had said before, and came up again to report to her.
At this time, she was sitting upstairs by the window, opening the window a narrow slit. So the sky light was squeezed into a narrow gap, and it came in from the outside and reflected in her eyes.
There were people coming and going outside, and the noises came in.
Hearing He Xing's voice, she didn't look back, just frowned and thought.
He Xing didn't rush, just stood there.
After a while, Lu Jinxi said: "Before I left the capital, I had already sent someone to Baoding to meet Sheng Xuan. Although there is a dispute between the north and the south of Shenglongchang, it was beyond our expectations, but It’s better to get things done as soon as possible.”
After all, she's not a real businessman.
This time, Sheng Xuan may have prepared enough time, but Lu Jinxi is in the eyes of others at this moment, I am afraid that he is still lighting incense in the Zen temple.
After procrastinating in Baoding for a long time, going back too late will inevitably lead to some unnecessary incidents.
Lu Jinxi is not afraid of trouble, but trouble can be avoided if it can be avoided.
She slowly withdrew her gaze from the street, got up directly, let Qingque serve the pen and ink, wrote a simple letter with the pen, and then sealed it and handed it to He Xing.
"I have to ask you to make a trip in person and hand over this letter to Second Master Sheng, which means that you will meet him tomorrow."
This was far beyond He Xing's expectations.
He took the letter, but he frowned subconsciously, and said hesitantly, "Madam, there is a commotion in Shenglongchang in the north and south, and it's hard to say what will happen in the future. You haven't waited to find out about this matter, I decided to meet the other party first, and if we talk about it and then change again, wouldn’t it be a waste of time?”
"Don't I believe in your eldest son?"
Lu Jinxi laughed and said half-truth.
"Sheng Longchang is not a small matter, but it is not a big deal. I still believe in the way your son sees people. It is related to his political achievements, so he will not dare to cheat me. You just don't care. Send the letter, it's not your fault if something goes wrong. Don't worry."
Can't blame him?
What is he worried about?
He Xing had already slandered a couple of words when he heard Lu Jinxi's completely unimportant remarks, but after thinking about it, he felt that her remarks were mostly joking, with a little deep meaning hidden in them.
After all, he was a smart person who mixed with his eldest son. He thought about it for a while just now. How can he make this decision without any consideration of interests?
It's just that although He Xing is not stupid, he is not at the point where he can guess people's hearts at will.
So he didn't think about it at all, obeyed obediently, and sent the letter.
This day, when Lu Jinxi woke up, it was already noon, and it took some time to go out for a walk, so it was afternoon. She thought that something went wrong with Sheng Longchang, and she was afraid that it would be inappropriate to have an appointment today, so she decided to make it tomorrow.
After He walked, she was not idle.
When she came, she had prepared some things, and now she asked Qingque to pick it up from the box, and after thinking for a while, she edited a little on it.
After half an hour, He Xing came back, saying that the letter had been delivered and that he would be on time for the appointment tomorrow.
Lu Jinxi asked, "How do you feel when you see Sheng Xuan?"
He Xing was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it for a while, he replied, "I am not someone who knows how to look at people. I just think that this second Master Sheng looks like a very kind person. When I arrived, he was talking to him. The shopkeepers of Sheng Longchang sat together, as if they were upset about the afternoon incident."
Are you kind?
This is in line with the previous rumors.
This second Master Sheng should be 33 or 4 years old this year, five years younger than his elder brother Sheng Hong. It is said that he liked to read poetry and books when he was young. .
Of course, the opportunity was also that family change.
From this point of view, it is hard to say why Gu Juefei has such a high opinion of this person; but if this person is willing to get to know Gu Juefei and give him face, it can be easily explained.
Lu Jinxi thought about it carefully, knowing that He Xing said that he didn't know how to look at people should be the truth, so he didn't ask any more questions, but said: "Yes. Tomorrow morning, make an appointment at Haoyue Building on the opposite street, you can first Take someone there to get acquainted, just in case."
"Yes."
Even if she didn't say it, He Xing was planning to ask.
After all, Gu Juefei made a message, handing Lu Jinxi's safety into his hands, and in Baoding, he was considered unfamiliar with life, so to meet someone who didn't know much about the basics, he always asked them to step on the ground first.
So after taking the order, He Xing went to work again.
As for the people who had previously sent people to Nansheng Longchang and his owner Sheng Hong, and his accountant Chen Wenru, they didn't come back until it was dark.
And brought back a strange news.
"Subordinate, follow, follow and lose..."
The person who went to do this errand was a young man in his twenties. He was tall and thin, and he was very strong. When he looked at people with his eyes, there was a sense of wit.
But at this time, there was a somewhat rare look on his face, and his voice was low.
After a few days, Lu Jinxi already remembered the names of He Xing and his team, and recognized this young man. He knew that his name was Yin Ping, and he was the most alert and sensitive person in their team.
When he was on his way, he could detect the falcon flying by far away.
It can be said that He Xing sent him to inquire about the news.
But now, he actually said he lost it?
Lu Jinxi was startled for a while.
He Xing stood aside, his brows furrowed even more, his voice became a little higher, and he felt incredible: "Who did you go with, how could you lose it?"
"me…"
Yin Ping murmured a few times, but he was actually angry in his heart.
"Who else can I talk to? I just found out what Sheng Hong's residence is, and before I went there, I saw that Mr. Sheng Hong accompanied Sheng Hong and a scribe in a long gown, and came out of the alley. I looked at that Sheng Hong, right This person is quite respectful, so I wanted to go to the bottom of it, but I didn’t expect that this person was accompanied by a few powerful people.”
A scribe in a gown?
If Yin Ping hadn't mentioned the accountant before, Lu Jinxi almost thought he was talking about the accountant Chen Wenru they had met before.
But listen now, obviously not.
So much respect for this man...
Could it be that there is something tricky behind this Nansheng Longchang?
She frowned slightly and continued, "They found you and then you got dumped?"
"This, don't laugh at me, I don't even know if they found me." Yin Ping felt very frustrated, "Anyway, when he came out of the alley, the scribe took three people to the street and walked around. After a while, I couldn't find a single person when I looked around."
He Xing's brows also wrinkled: "Is it so powerful?"
Yin Ping was a little aggrieved and mumbled: "If you don't believe me, go and try it, can I still lie to you?"
It was clear that he was still childish.
Lu Jinxi laughed when he heard it, and only comforted him: "We all know what you are capable of, and I heard that even in the capital, only the top-ranked sentries in the infantry dragon and tiger camp can compare with you. You can easily get rid of it. You, let you follow the lost person..."
She wanted to say, "It's definitely not a simple person," but when the words came to her lips, she just blurted out the sentence "Only the top-ranked sentry in the infantry dragon and tiger camp can compare with you", But like a meteor, it hit my mind again.
A burst of sparks!
Ordinary people, who would have nothing to do with guards?
Even Yin Ping was not raised by the Grand Master's mansion. He was quite strong in this way, so Gu Juefei also let him go, and that's how he got what he is today.
But a Nansheng Longchang, a mysterious scribe, actually brought three people with this ability.
Moreover, Yin Ping couldn't even judge whether they found themselves easily. That is to say, they got rid of Yin Ping, maybe they got rid of him after they found him, or maybe...
Just out of cautious habit and instinct.
"Ma'am, what did you think of?"
She stopped just now when she was halfway through speaking, and He Xing looked at it with a bit of solemnity and curiosity.
Lu Jinxi turned around, thought about it for a moment, and then shook his head: "I just think it's not easy. In a place like Baoding, it's rare for our group to appear, and it's weird to see people who are more powerful than us. If something goes wrong, there must be demons. Yin Ping might as well continue to quietly investigate outside these days, except for Nan Sheng Longchang and Sheng Hong, and pay attention to these four people."
"Yes."
Yin Ping was also a little unconvinced in his heart. When he took the order, his voice was crisp, and he was quite determined to reveal the true face of those people.
He Xing also nodded, but then asked: "Then the details of Nansheng Longchang are unclear now. For the second master of Sheng tomorrow, do you want to change the date and postpone it for a few days until we find out and see you again?"
"No." Lu Jinxi shook his head and said categorically, "I'll see you tomorrow morning, I won't change."
