Enemy meet

Things are getting more and more troublesome, Xue Xiaohan feels as if he has fallen into an invisible net unknowingly.Song Jin has found the Ping An Inn, and found out about Xue Xiaohan's background.He went back to Jiang Mansion and said to Jiang Tianqi: "My lord, I found out that Xue Xiaohan has been to the capital twice. Every time he comes, he lives in the Ping An Inn, so the accountant Man Shu and Chef Zhang recognize him. But they I don't know what he does every time he comes. It's just that every time they see him leaving in a sad mood, she doesn't agree with him. Also, son, didn't I say that I seem to have seen him somewhere? I guess it's his I met him when I came here." Jiang Tianqi asked again: "Can you find out who Xue Xiaohan came to the capital to find, is he looking for someone he knew when he was young?" Song Jin said: "No, he seems to be looking for a woman named Qiu. Qian. I reckon it's his old friend, otherwise why would he come all the way to this capital." Jiang Tianqi didn't want to hear these words, he said impatiently: "I see, you go out first."

On the other side, Xue Xiaohan was wandering aimlessly on the street again, she didn't know what to do, could she go back safely?Whether Shen Lou is reliable, how should she go to meet him.She only heard from Yu Kang that Shen Lou was an upright and upright person, and only after being squeezed out by villains would he be an official for many years and still be depressed.But people's hearts are so close, it's hard to guarantee that he won't change after so many years.Xue Xiaohan felt that she couldn't take this risk, after all, she still had some things to do, and she couldn't die yet.Unable to think of a way, Xue Xiaohan was upset.At this moment, when she looked up, she saw her exact enemy walking towards her not far ahead, so she had no choice but to turn around and leave.She read correctly that the people in front were Zhao Zhongqi and Ye Zhiqiu, and Jiang Tianqi and Xue Bing were in front of them.Xue Bing said angrily to Jiang Tianqi: "Tianqi saw that person just now, she is Xue Xiaohan who saved us. This person is cold and greedy for money, really annoying, what does she mean by leaving when she sees us? I’m afraid that if I ask her to get back the 50 taels of money, it won’t work.” Jiang Tianqi wondered: “What 50 taels of silver, why did you give her money?” Xue Bing said: “It’s not about the bandits, she’s willing to save us only because of it. Yinzi's face has improved." Jiang Tianqi was a little disappointed, he didn't expect that the person he used to have changed, and all the good thoughts in his heart were gradually fading away.

Ye Zhiqiu returned to the palace absent-mindedly, Zhao Zhongqi asked with concern: "What happened to Zhiqiu?" Ye Zhiqiu shook his head and said: "It's nothing, I'm a little tired and want to go back to my room to rest." Zhao Zhongqi said: "Okay, Then you should rest well."

Ye Zhiqiu sat at the table and muttered to himself: "It turns out that Xue Xiaohan has arrived in the capital, but it's a pity that Yu Kang didn't come." Speaking of Yu Kang, Ye Zhiqiu remembered those terrible things again, when they were surrounded by killers and Yu Kang Seriously injured.Seeing that the two were about to be killed, Yu Kang said: "Zhiqiu, I still have the drug on me. When I spray the drug, we will take the opportunity to separate and leave. I will attract them and you will take the opportunity to escape. When you arrive in the capital, go directly to find it." Xue Xiaohan, you have to trust him and her, she is the only person we can rely on." After saying that, the drug blinded everyone's eyes, and the two fled as planned.Nearly a month has passed, Ye Zhiqiu feels very sad every time he thinks about this.Because she once heard from Yu Kang and Xue Xiaohan that the person who killed her father, Lin Yuliang, was the son of a general of the prince of the capital Zhao, so she successfully pretended to be a refugee and sneaked into the palace, and accidentally won Zhao Zhongqi's favor. Seize the opportunity to find evidence to clear the Ye family.Seeing Xue Xiaohan today, she was both happy and afraid, afraid that she would blame herself for causing Yu Kang's death, and also afraid that she would not help her Ye family to avenge from now on.Thinking of this, Ye Zhiqiu decided to find a way to meet her, listen to her thoughts and ask his younger brother Ye Xiaodong's whereabouts.

Xue Xiaohan lingered for a long time not knowing where to go, she thought to herself: "Why is Ye Zhiqiu here and Yu Kang not? And what is she going to do in the palace, maybe it is to find evidence. No, no, she is also Yu Kang Kang’s fiancée, I can’t put her in danger.” Thinking of this, she looked sad again, and the sun went down and the wind picked up.When she came to a corner, she wanted to sit down and rest for a while before going back.After an unknown amount of time, a voice suddenly came to her ears saying: "You have taken my place, go away quickly or I will be rude to you." If Xue Xiaohan had sensed that there was someone beside her before, but this time she Thinking too much about things.She looked up and saw a filthy and lame beggar standing in front of her, at this moment she suddenly thought of something.She stood up and asked the beggar, "Do you want to eat, to wear clean clothes, and to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain?" The beggar stared at her suspiciously and said, "Yes, I want everything you said. But look at yourself, how can you give me what you said when you are poor." Xue Xiaohan took out a piece of silver from his bosom and said: "This silver is enough, as long as you come with me, do things for me, I have everything The money you have is yours." The beggar's eyes sparkled when he saw the money, he hadn't seen so much money for a long time, not to mention that the money would be his own soon.Xue Xiaohan said: "Why? No, okay, I'll find someone else." The beggar hurriedly said: "I am willing, even if I go through fire and water for the son." Xue Xiaohan said again: "Come with me, and you are not allowed to come back later Come to this place." The beggar nodded and followed Xue Xiaohan happily.

Returning to the Ping An Inn through the back door, Xue Xiaohan let the beggar take a bath in his room.The beggar asked suspiciously: "Why do you want me to take a bath? You think I'm dirty?" Xue Xiaohan didn't answer, she walked out and said: "I used to be like you when I fell to this level and I didn't think I was dirty for a long time. Something has changed, and now your fate will also change." The beggar asked again: "I have no clothes to wear, and I still wear dirty clothes after washing?" Xue Xiaohan said: "No, wear my clothes."

Xue Xiaohan was sitting outside the house and heard the sound of water in the house, she asked: "Why haven't you washed well, I have something to tell you soon." The beggar said: "I know, but I haven't bathed for a long time and my body is dirty. It’s very long, so it’s enough to delay the time.” Xue Xiaohan said: “Don’t find a reason for doing things in the future, if you can’t do it well, I will let you come and go back.” The beggar said: “I understand, I’m done, you come in Let's go." Xue Xiaohan walked into the room and saw that the beggar was wearing his own clothes and sitting beside him, and the water in the bathtub was filled with mud.She said to the beggar: "Clean it up." The beggar didn't say anything and started to do what she said. After a while, the beggar came back and said, "Everything is all right, is there anything else?" Xue Xiaohan said, "Sit down, I have something to tell you. You must answer honestly or you should know the consequences." The beggar said: "I dare not make mistakes in front of the young master, if you have something to do, just tell the young master, I will try my best to complete it." Xue Xiaohan asked: "What is your name and where are you from? Answer honestly." The beggar smiled and said: "That's it? My name is Situ Shaohua, and I come from Shuangxi Town, a border town." Xue Xiaohan asked again: "Why did you end up here?" I came here after fleeing from famine and plague, and my legs were interrupted by bandits on the way to escape." Xue Xiaohan said: "I know, your matter is over. Now, you have to obey my order, and you are not allowed to ask why. I will help you find an inn tomorrow and you will live there after everything is arranged. You are not allowed to have any contact with anyone except me, and you have to listen to me. Otherwise, you will be at your own risk." Situ Shaohua asked: "When will you come to see me in the future, and I will return your clothes to you." Xue Xiaohan said: "Throw away the clothes when you go back, and your board and lodging will I will arrange it." Situ Shaohua said: "I know." Xue Xiaohan said: "I will sleep in the woodshed tonight, you are not allowed to lie on my bed when you sleep on the floor." Situ Shaohua said: " I know, I dare not disobey your words." After Xue Xiaohan left, Situ Shaohua immediately took off his shoes and lay down on Xue Xiaohan's bed. He covered the quilt and said to himself: "This is a strange man who is obviously a man. I don’t want to sleep in the same room with a man, and there is a faint fragrance on the clothes. I don’t want to sleep, I haven’t slept in bed for a long time, no matter what happens tomorrow, at least I’m alive today.”

A few days later, under Xue Xiaohan's arrangement, Situ Shaohua went to Shen's house. When Shen Lou heard that someone was coming from Ye's house, he asked his servants to tell him to talk in his study.After both of them sat down, Shen Lou asked: "Master, who is Brother Ye? I haven't heard him mention you." Situ Shaohua said, "I'm not someone from the Ye family, Yu Butou is mine. My friend, it was he who asked me to help the Ye family investigate the case. He said Master Shen is upright and someone you can rely on, so I came to find him and hope you will not let me down." Shen Lou said: "I will definitely do my best in the case of the Ye family. Don't worry if you find out Mr. Situ, Mr. Yu, do you have any news about the head arrester?" Situ Shaohua said: "He is recuperating in a safe place at this time. As for the exact location, it is inconvenient to tell the adults, and the head arrester Yu has repeatedly asked me to Take good care of Ms. Ye Zhiqiu, but it is inconvenient for me to be a man, so please take Ms. Ye over to Prince Zhao’s house to take good care of her. I will tell you about other things later, please follow my instructions first." Shen Loudao : "Okay, I will definitely do what the young master tells you."

Back at Yongan Inn, Situ saw Xue Xiaohan drinking tea as soon as he entered the room. She asked him, "Everything is done? What's Shen Lou's reaction?" Situ Shaohua closed the door and sat down, saying, "Shen Lou seems I am very pleased, I have done all the things you told me, and I have also mentioned the matter of Ye Zhiqiu." Xue Xiaohan put down his teacup and said, "Very good, from today onwards you can only eat the meals I cook." Situ Shaohua was puzzled He said: "Why? I don't have to bother you with what I eat, I just come by myself." Xue Xiaohan said: "How can I come to you openly if you don't eat my food, remember if someone asks you Said that he had eaten at Yunlai Restaurant in Meizhen and liked the food there." Situ Shaohua said: "Have you been a cook there?" Xue Xiaohan warned him: "Don't ask questions, just let me arrange everything. "

After Situ Shaohua left, Shen Lou immediately went to see Jiang Tianqi, and it turned out that they were friends.Shen Lou couldn't find Yu Kang's whereabouts and once asked Jiang Tianqi for help, and Jiang Tianqi has been investigating the Ye family's case.Song Jinshou was at the door and the two were having a secret conversation in the room. Shen Lou first said: "Second Young Master, someone who claimed to be Yu Kang's friend came to me today, saying that he wanted to help investigate the Ye family's case. The strange thing is that I didn't I heard that Yu Kang mentioned him, I think he must be not simple, there must be something behind it that I don't know." Jiang Tianqi asked: "My lord, have you ever heard of a person named Xue Xiaohan?" Shen Lou said: "I heard that However, both Brother Ye and Yu Kang have said that this person is highly skilled in martial arts and is someone who can be relied on and trusted, but I don’t know where she is now." Jiang Tianqi wondered in his heart: "Why didn't Xue Xiaohan see Shen Lou when he came here? , What is he waiting for or afraid of? And what is the origin of Situ Shaohua, I have to look it up." Shen Lou and Jiang Tianqi hurriedly said: "My lord, have you noticed?" Jiang Tianqi said: "Still No, but my lord can rest assured that Tian Qi will be clear about it, and if there is any news, Tian Qi will let Song Jin inform the lord." Shen Lou said: "That's fine, then I'll go back and listen to your son's news." Jiang Tianqi then Asking Song Jin to see off the guests, Jiang Tianqi decided to meet Situ Shaohua after Shen Lou left.
