This room looked magnificent, but it was extremely deserted and devoid of people, and there was nothing but boxes of treasures, not to mention cold water.

Xiao Qingmo and the others looked at each other, feeling embarrassed.

"I seem to have seen these patterns somewhere before." Qian You, who was unconscious before Zhan Zhao, was walking to the wall, stroking the dark patterns on the wall with his fingers, with a pensive expression on his face.

Bai Yutang was not far beside him, raised his eyebrows when he heard this, walked over curiously, and observed the dark lines on the wall.

However, as well-informed as he is, he is equally ignorant of this.

Xiao Qingmo didn't come forward, neither he nor Chu Liuxiang are from this world, and they don't know anything about the things in this world. You don't need to look at the so-called dark lines to know whether you know them or not.

The ground is also covered with all kinds of hidden weapons, such as needles, short arrows, and darts.Xiao Qingmo's eyes froze suddenly, he took a few steps forward, walked to the pile of short arrows, bent down and pinched the arrow tails with his fingertips,

The triangular arrow glowed with a faint blue light. Needless to say, the poison visible to the naked eye spread all over it.

"This should be a mark." Xiao Qingmo squinted his eyes slightly, rubbed the arrow body with his fingertips, the uneven touch showed that there were delicate dark lines here, thinking of what Zhan Zhao said just now, it is very likely to be the same as the one on the wall. rut.

Chu Liuxiang lingered in the house, looking for the secret passages of the mechanism, but apart from finding out where these hidden weapons were fired, there was nothing else.

Zhan Zhao walked to Xiao Qingmo's side, picked up a short arrow and groped for the dark pattern on it, then pursed his lips and said, "It's indeed a mark, the same as the one on the wall."

There are signs, could it be that this is a place where the chamber of commerce earns money?But with so many treasures, what kind of business has such strength?

Zhan Zhao stood up, still holding a short arrow in his hand, glanced at Xiao Qingmo and the others, and said in a deep voice: "This matter has been dealt with almost, let's go back and tell Mr. Bao about this matter, follow-up Just let other people from Kaifeng Prefecture come and investigate."

The three of Xiao Qingmo naturally accepted his proposal.

Zhan Zhao carried the unconscious Qian Youzheng in one hand, and then returned to Kaifeng Mansion together with Xiao Qingmo and the other three. As for here, they were not worried about being discovered, after all, the formation outside the house was a natural barrier, and such a rare formation Things, not everyone can come out.

……

The next day.

Qian Youzheng had woken up long ago, and was interrogated by Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce, and told everything he knew, and the case had just come to light.

What Qian Youzheng did was not what they expected. The death of his ex-wife and his father-in-law's mother-in-law's family was indeed not caused by him, but he contributed to all of them, all for the sake of the country.

That mountain and river tripod was indeed a family heirloom, but it didn't belong to his Qian family, but to his ex-wife's family.His ex-wife's family was not an ordinary merchant, their ancestors were former royal merchants, if they were investigated, they could still be regarded as the royal family dozens of generations ago.

The Shanhe Ding is the token of the former imperial merchants, and sometimes the Shanhe Ding is more useful than the order of the chamber of commerce.

Qian Youzheng learned of this incident by accident, coupled with the fact that his ex-wife is weak and the only daughter in the family, together with his greedy heart, it leads to so many things.

As for why he dared to go to Kaifeng Mansion, it can be said that he was overwhelmed by the monstrous wealth. It is not easy to take out such a large amount of wealth, but if there is Kaifeng Mansion as a guarantee, there is no need to worry about it.

Seeing such a large amount of wealth but unable to move it, just as he was vacillating, Chu Liuxiang stole the Shanhe tripod, giving him a reason to find the Kaifeng mansion.It can be said that various factors made him finally decide to take the risk.

But it's a pity that success is also Xiao He's defeat, and Chu Liuxiang created opportunities for him, but he didn't want to have Chu Liuxiang's "internal response" in Kaifeng Mansion. He was suspected by Kaifeng Mansion from the very beginning.

It was related to the previous dynasty, even though they were only relatives of the former royal family eight poles away, but with such a large amount of wealth, it was of course impossible not to report this matter to the current emperor.

After Bao Zheng found out the cause and effect, he went to court the next morning with a thick memorial.Xiao Qingmo only knew that later that other courtyard was surrounded by the emperor's personal soldiers for several days, and Qian Youzheng was also put in prison, and would be executed soon.

Xiao Qingmo sat in front of the table, frowning and pausing for a moment with a pen in his hand, thinking about what to write, while Chu Liuxiang was sitting opposite him, holding a carving knife in his hand, carving on a piece of wood that was as long as a finger. The atmosphere was harmonious and comfortable.

"Boom boom boom——"

A knock on the door broke the silence in the house.

Xiao Qingmo frowned indiscernibly, the inspiration he had just had was interrupted, he sighed helplessly, waved to Chu Liuxiang, and went to open the door by himself.

Seeing the people outside the door clearly, Xiao Qingmo couldn't help sighing, and saw the two people outside the door, it was the maid in his courtyard and Miss Li whom he hadn't seen for a while.

Xiao Qingmo tilted his head subconsciously, wanting to look at Chu Liuxiang in the room, but just halfway through the movement, he was restrained again, with a faint smile on his face, and softly called: "Miss Li." At the same time, he waved his hand to let the maid back Down.

Chu Liuxiang in the room didn't care who came, but when he heard the word "Miss Li", he tensed up instantly and stopped the carving knife in his hand. He didn't forget that Miss Li was still his rival in love.

Miss Li's eyes fell on Xiao Qingmo, and she couldn't help lingering on his face. Seeing that his face was still a little pale, his eyes flashed with distress, and the familiar food box was still in his hand. She smiled and said: "Shangguan Sir, my father is unwell and has not been here for a few days. Recently, my father has recovered a lot, so I came again. This is my new medicinal meal, it tastes good, please try it. "

Miss Li has never hidden her affection for Xiao Qingmo, whether it is her words or the expression on her face, people can see her affection.

Before Xiao Qingmo could make a sound, Chu Liuxiang couldn't bear it anymore, and appeared behind Xiao Qingmo in an instant, and said in a voice that made people's ears tingle: "Qingmo, who is looking for you?"

The voice was smiling, with obvious familiarity, and even a little strange intimacy.

Although he hasn't seen his expression yet, Xiao Qingmo can probably guess what's going on in his heart. The tulip fragrance in his nose seems to be tinged with jealousy, and the corners of his mouth can't help but twitch. "You've seen it too, it's Miss Li."

Miss Li was still a little curious about the voices coming from the room, but when she saw the smile on the corner of Xiao Qingmo's mouth, she froze in place.

Mr. Shangguan's temper is not bad, and he always has a smile on his face. She has seen polite smiles, comforting smiles, and apologetic smiles...but she has never seen such a real smile on this face. The smile in his heart made his already handsome appearance even more eye-catching.

Miss Li's heart sank gradually.

It's not that she doesn't know that Xiao Qingmo doesn't have the slightest affection for her, but she always has a glimmer of hope. After all, the other party has no one he likes. Maybe one day he will be tempted?

However, when she saw the smile on his face, she suddenly realized that she would never have a chance.

This has nothing to do with whether I am good enough, but I have not been able to reach the bottom of his heart, there is a layer in between, just like the world inside and outside the mirror, no matter how close it looks, it is never possible to really touch it.

Chu Liuxiang also appeared in her eyes. Miss Li glanced at him, then turned her head to Xiao Qingmo and said, "Mr. Shangguan, this is the last time I will make medicinal food for you. Father is not in good health yet. I should stay here in the future." I'm at home to share my father's worries, and I don't have time to come over."

Both Xiao Qingmo and Chu Liuxiang were taken aback, especially Chu Liuxiang, he didn't do anything?Why did this rival suddenly give up?

Although Xiao Qingmo didn't know what happened, how could Ms. Li's attitude change so much before and after, but this is also a good thing, so she said with a smile: "Ms. Li is polite, there is nothing serious about my health, Ms. Li is very filial."

When he was speaking, Miss Li looked at him without blinking, not letting go of the slightest expression, and finally found out in disappointment that the other party really didn't give up.

Forced a smile, "Father is old, but fortunately, I learned some medical skills from Mr. Gongsun, which is enough for me to take good care of my father."

After being polite with Xiao Qingmo, Ms. Li was about to say goodbye and leave. She turned around and didn't take a few steps, then stopped suddenly. Looking at Xiao Qingmo's suspicious eyes, she seemed to muster up all her courage and said: "Although I know it's impossible, But Mr. Shangguan, I still want to express my heart."

"I like you."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Qingmo to say anything, he turned around and walked out of the yard quickly.

Xiao Qingmo stood there with a complicated heart. Miss Li's confession really caught him off guard. He thought that after the two of them tacitly declined and gave up, this matter would end here. .

Feeling the scorching gaze beside him and the almost tangible smell of vinegar, Xiao Qingmo rubbed his forehead with some headaches.

"Qingmo is really popular." Chu Liuxiang was about to be drowned in the sea of ​​vinegar, but still had a smile on his face, pretending to be generous and teasing.

Xiao Qingmo touched his nose subconsciously, his action made Chu Liuxiang look a little slower, he smiled lowly and said: "It's not as powerful as Xiang Shuai, who defeats his love rival as soon as he shows up, this kind of skill is beyond compare."

Chu Liuxiang: "..." I'm not, I don't!

However, Chu Liuxiang couldn't say anything, after all, on the surface, the facts were indeed as Xiao Qingmo said.

Chu Liuxiang suddenly stretched out his hand, and pulled Xiao Qingmo into the room, and with the other hand, he slammed the door shut.

Xiao Qingmo leaned against the door panel, facing Chu Liuxiang face to face, the whole space was filled with the mysterious and attractive fragrance of tulips.

The atmosphere should have been ambiguous, but Xiao Qingmo was a little lost in thought.

The hard touch of the back, especially the unevenness of the door panel, to be honest... It's uncomfortable to put it on.

He looked at Chu Liuxiang with a complicated expression, so what kind of straight man's hobby is this?I always play wall dong, tree dong, and all kinds of dong. Haven't you considered whether the person who is dong will be put on hold?

Xiao Qingmo vaguely remembered that it seemed that this was not the first time he had been thumped, and not long ago he had been thumped in Chu Liuxiang's yard.

Lu Xun said: If you don't break out in silence, you will perish in silence.

Xiao Qingmo chose to explode.

Therefore, Chu Liuxiang moved her lips, and before she had time to speak, she felt a strong force coming, and she was overturned by Xiao Qingmo when she didn't pay attention for a while, and when she recovered, she found that she and Xiao Qingmo had switched positions.

Xiao Qingmo's breath was filled with the faint medicinal fragrance of Xiao Qingmo's life. In front of his eyes was the magnified handsome face of the other party. What he wanted to say was instantly forgotten, and his breath gradually became hot.

Could it be that Qing Mo wants to...?

Chu Liuxiang's mind was getting bigger and bigger, and she was so confused.

Xiao Qingmo, who was close at hand, moved his lips slightly, Chu Liuxiang's breathing was slightly stagnant, and he waited quietly for his movement with a smile.

Clinker Xiao Qingmo said: "How is it? Do you know how uncomfortable it is?"

Chu Liuxiang: "???"
