The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

It was almost time for dinner when Meng Huaijun hurried back.

As soon as he came back, Meng Huaijun entered the study and found that Lu Fengyi was also there, so he asked, "Madam, have you had a good rest?"

"Ah."

Lu Xiaoxiao responded, still sitting next to Xie Xi somewhat listlessly.

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't know that she would get seasick. The two days on the boat were really hard to endure. She had to hold on all the way until she reached Jiangning.

After returning to Luoyang Inn and sleeping for two hours, she barely regained some energy. As a result, as soon as she walked out of the room, he brought her to the study and said that he wanted to stay with her.

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't know when His Highness became so clingy?

Noticing Lu Xiaoxiao's strangeness, Xie Xi told Xie Jiu who was standing beside him, "Go to the kitchen and get some cakes."

Xie Jiu was slightly stunned and subconsciously looked at Lu Xiaoxiao.

His master has never liked those greasy sweet pastries, but now his master asked him to go to the kitchen. Could it be for Lu Fengyi?

So it seems that my master cares a lot about Lu Fengyi?

It seems that he needs to remind the other brothers.

Xie Jiu secretly complained a few words in his heart, then quickly nodded and said, "Yes, Master, I will go to the kitchen right away."

Xie Jiu turned and left.

Lu Xiaoxiao raised her hand and rubbed her brows, staying quietly, not wanting to say a word, but occasionally glancing casually at the letters on the desk.

[How ridiculous! Shi Wei'an actually dared to complain about poverty to his father-in-law? How much gold and silver treasures are hidden in his study? Doesn't he know? ]

Xie Xi, who had just seen the letter, said: "..."

Very good, now I know where Shi Weian hid the silver.

Meng Huaijun looked up at Xie Xi and said, "Sir, I have already made arrangements. When you enter the Governor's Mansion, someone will be there to meet you."

"My husband is going to the Governor's Mansion?"

Before Xie Xi could answer, Lu Xiaoxiao at the side couldn't help but speak first.

[No, isn't Shi Wei'an still in Suzhou? Then why is Your Highness thinking of going to the Governor's Mansion? ]

[Could it be that Your Highness wants to sneak in secretly? ]

Xie Xi nodded: "Now that Shi Weian is not in the mansion, it is a good time for me to go in and search for evidence. If I can successfully find evidence tonight, that would be the best."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoxiao barely sobered up a little. She thought for a moment and looked at Xie Xi seriously: "Husband, is there anything I can help you with?"

Xie Xi pondered for a moment, and seeing the worry on her face, he couldn't help but reach out and rub her head, with a touch of tenderness in his eyes: "Madam, your husband is not here tonight, so you should rest early."

Lu Xiaoxiao: “…”

I never expected that His Highness would only say these words.

"Then my husband must be careful when he goes out."

Lu Xiaoxiao's cheeks flushed. She took a deep breath and quickly used her consciousness to open the system and search for information about Shi Weian.

[Your Highness wants to find evidence. Let me see where Shi Wei'an would put the most important thing? ]

Xie Xi and Meng Huaijun were shocked when they heard the inner voice.

The two of them looked at each other quickly, and at the same time saw a hint of excitement in each other's eyes.

Here it comes, Lu Xiaoxiao/Lu Fengyi is going to use her ability again.

[Sure enough, most powerful officials have some quirks. If I hadn't seen it, I really wouldn't have known that Shi Wei'an would actually stuff the most important thing into his boots! ]

???

It's a bit hard to imagine.

Xie Xi and Meng Huaijun were stunned.

[It was still in the same pair of boots that Shi Wei'an had worn for ten years, and they were so tattered that they had never been washed! ! Suffocating! The smell must be very unusual. ]

[What is so important that Shi Wei'an hid it so carefully? I wonder which one stinks worse, the boots or the manure pit in Deng Qing's house?]

[I wonder if Guard Mu Qing still remembers the cesspool in Deng Qing's house? ]

Mu Qing, who had just entered the study, slowly asked a question in his mind:?

Hearing Lu Fengyi's thoughts again, the usually expressionless guard Mu Qing's face turned dark on the spot.

Could it be that Lu Fengyi wanted to play a trick on him again?

At this time, should he pretend that he knew nothing and just turn around and leave?

But he originally wanted to come in and report to his master...

Mu Qing was conflicted for a moment, but he quickly made up his mind. As long as he ran fast, Lu Fengyi wouldn't be able to trick him!

"Master, I have something to report to you."

As soon as these words were spoken, the two people who were eavesdropping carefully immediately set their eyes on Mu Qing.

Lu Xiaoxiao just noticed that Guard Mu Qing came in, and she felt a little guilty for some reason.

[This person really can't stand being talked about. I just thought of Guard Mu Qing, and Guard Mu Qing actually appeared in front of me.]

[Fortunately, Guard Mu Qing didn't know that I was secretly talking about him in my heart.]

Mu Qing: I know everything!

"cough"

Xie Xi clenched his fist and coughed lightly, but in his heart he couldn't help but think about what Lu Xiaoxiao had just said. If he let Guard Mu Qing go out with him tonight...

Mu Qing inexplicably felt like he was being stared at. He stood there motionless, but couldn't help shivering.

Xie Xi: "Well, what else is there?"

Mu Qing: "In reply to the master, the eldest daughter of the Li family has something she wants to tell the master. She asked if the master would let her go if she told him everything she knew."

Hearing this, Xie Xi was a little surprised.

It seems that the eldest daughter of the Li family is not simple. She figured it out so quickly? No wonder she became Shi Wei'an's favorite concubine.

"If she wants to save her life, then it depends on whether what she says has any value."

Xie Xi pretended to be casual and pushed all the letters in front of Lu Xiaoxiao, and continued: "Mu Qing, go and tell her first that even if you want to negotiate, you have to wait until tomorrow."

Mu Qing: "Yes, Master."

Wei Jianqing and other three were also in Luoyang Inn.

However, Wei Jianqing, Zhao Wuqian and Su Lian'er all lived in the superior guest rooms on the third floor, while Li Qiuqiu, the eldest daughter of the Li family, lived in the woodshed in the backyard. The woodshed was locked from the outside and had no windows. If Li Qiuqiu wanted to escape, she would have to be able to fly.

In desperation, Li Qiuqiu thought about negotiating with the master behind Mu Qing.

Fearing that Lu Fengyi would ask him to look for the stinky boots, Mu Qing did not dare to stay in the study any longer. After leaving the study, Mu Qing did not dare to stop for a moment and strode to the woodshed to express his master's intention.

Looking at Guard Mu Qing's hurriedly leaving back, he seemed a little panicked, and he even staggered when he stepped over the threshold?

Lu Xiaoxiao suddenly felt a little puzzled. She looked up at Xie Xi and said, "My husband, did you feel that Guard Mu Qing seemed a little strange?"

[Looking at Guard Mu Qing, it looks like some vicious dog is chasing him? ]

Xie Xi:?

How could there be a vicious dog?

It was obvious that Guard Mu Qing's ability to withstand stress was too low.

Xie Xi knew it very well, but he said seriously: "Madam, don't think too much. Maybe Guard Mu Qing didn't have lunch at noon, so he was very hungry, so he walked unsteadily."

Lu Xiaoxiao choked: "..."

[Your Highness, you said this as if you were fooling a child. ]

The corners of Meng Huaijun's mouth twitched. He didn't expect that His Highness would say such a thing.

When Xie Jiu came in with the pastries, he immediately noticed that the atmosphere in the study seemed a little strange.

Xie Jiu originally wanted to find someone to ask, but after a quick glance, he was shocked to find that in the entire study, besides his master, Lu Fengyi and Meng Huaijun, he was the only secret guard left.

"Master, I have brought some cakes."

Xie Jiu tactfully placed all three cakes in front of Lu Fengyi and said, "If the master has no other instructions, I will leave first."

Xie Xi waved at him and said, "Go out."

"Yes."

Xie Jiu ran away very quickly, thinking only of going out to chat with his brothers.

Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the osmanthus cake in front of her and didn't know what to say for a moment.

If she remembered correctly, she had just eaten too much half an hour ago.

[Your Highness, are you planning to treat me like a pig? ]

"Cough cough cough."

Hearing these words suddenly, Xie Xi almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Xie Xi restrained his gaze and didn't look at Lu Xiaoxiao, but talked to Meng Huaijun about business: "I'm going out tonight. If I don't come back soon, you can go to the Eighteenth Lane of East Street to find General Liang and Lord Bai. They know what to do."

There are always unexpected things. What Xie Xi can do now is to be prepared first.

"Don't worry, sir. I'll remember this."

Meng Huaijun looked solemn.

Lu Xiaoxiao glanced at Xie Xi again and said hesitantly, "My husband, do you want to bring Guard Mu Qing with you?"

Hearing this, Xie Xi couldn't help laughing out loud, "Guard Mu Qing's Qinggong is pretty good, so of course I have to bring him along."

"That's good."

Lu Xiaoxiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

[I will go find Guard Mu Qing later and ask him to look for the most worn and smelly pair of boots in Shi Wei'an's room! ]

Xie Xi: “…”

Meng Huaijun: "..."

Mu Qing, who had just arrived at the woodshed, sneezed unexpectedly.

He raised his hand and rubbed his nose, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

-

At nightfall, three tall figures flashed by in the dark night at an extremely fast speed, and then landed lightly on the roof of the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion.

Xie Xi was wearing a nightgown and had his face covered with a black cloth, leaving only his eyes exposed.

Seeing the guards patrolling everywhere in the mansion, Xie Xi deliberately lowered his voice: "Xie Jiu, go and keep an eye on Shi Weian's wife first. Mu Qing, go to the front yard and sneak into Shi Weian's room. You should know what to do, right?"

Although Jiang Hui and Shi Weian are husband and wife, they do not live in the same room.

In addition to frequently going to his wife's yard, Shi Weian also has a room in the front yard, not far from the study.

As for the pair of stinky boots that Lu Xiaoxiao was talking about in her heart, Xie Xi suspected that they were in the room in the front yard.

"know."

Mu Qing responded expressionlessly.

His premonition turned out to be correct, Lu Fengyi had indeed tricked him again!

Xie Jiu didn't know what Guard Mu Qing and his master were talking in sign language, but he didn't express his doubts.

"Okay, each of you go your own way. I'm going to the study. Then wait for my signal."

"Yes."

After assigning the tasks, Xie Jiu left first, while guard Xie Xi and Mu Qing flew in the same direction.

Ever since a man in black sneaked into the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion last time and escaped, all the courtyards in the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion have been under heightened security.

Especially the front yard.

In the front yard, the Governor-General of Jiangnan’s study is of course the most important.

There were now 20 guards guarding the front yard, almost enough to circle the entire front yard twice. The housekeeper even gave a death order -

Except for the master, no one is allowed to get close to the study, and it is imperative to ensure that not even a fly can get in!

At this time, a slender black shadow approached the front yard and was stopped by the guards guarding the door. Qin Xiangnan said coldly: "No one is allowed to enter the yard."

"Guard Qin, it's me."

"Guard Meng? Meng Yao?"

Qin Xiangnan looked at the man standing in front of him in surprise. He subconsciously looked up at the sky and said in a puzzled tone:

"It's already this late, why didn't Guard Meng go back to rest? Why did he come here? But what instructions does the housekeeper have?"

Guard Meng has been highly valued by the housekeeper recently, which has made many guards envious. When Qin Xiangnan saw Guard Meng appear here, although he was puzzled, he did not dare to scold him loudly.

Who knows whether Guard Meng will hold a grudge? If Guard Meng says something nonsense in front of the housekeeper, he will be in trouble.

Meng Yao raised his chin, picked up the food box in his hand, and smiled at Qin Xiangnan: "The housekeeper appreciates your hard work here day and night, so he asked me to bring some cakes to fill your stomach."

Hearing this, Qin Xiangnan was shocked. He never expected that the stingy butler would actually think about the difficulties of being guards like them.

Qin Xiangnan took the food box and said with a smile: "If you say it was the butler... I don't believe it, Guard Meng, I guess you mentioned this to the butler, right?"

Meng Yao glanced at him and said calmly, "Okay, you're still talking so much when I'm bringing you food."

"Let all the brothers have a taste!"

"Of course! Guard Meng, please help me guard the gate for a while. I will go over and distribute the cakes to the other brothers."

"Row."

Qin Xiangnan carried the food box and walked quickly towards where the other brothers were.

Meng Yao stood where he was, watching him leave quietly, his eyes dark and unclear.

"He's gone, you can come out now."

Guards Xie Xi and Mu Qing emerged from the darkness.

Meng Yao raised his eyes and glanced at them, and whispered, "There are still people guarding the door of the study. I can't go in and lead them away. You can only rely on yourselves."

"Also, the window on the right side of the study is broken. You can go in through that window."

As he spoke, Meng Yao took out another piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to Xie Xi: "This is the route map of the entire Governor's Mansion. Take it carefully. If you find anything wrong, leave immediately."

"Okay, while the guards are eating cakes, go in as soon as possible."

Xie Xi took it and glanced at it quickly, "Thank you."

"No need to thank me, I just accepted the request."

After saying that, Meng Yao turned sideways and deliberately leaned against the side of the courtyard gate, pretending to accidentally knock down the lanterns hanging on both sides.

The lantern fell to the ground and the candle inside went out instantly.

In an instant, the front yard entrance became pitch black.

At the same time, Xie Xi and Mu Qing quickly entered the front yard...
