lord and beauty

The author has something to say: Thank you to all the cute little ones who read the reward messages

Tan Qiu leaned sideways on Jiang Beimu's shoulder, swaying along with the carriage, closing his eyes and listening to Jiang Beimu's words.

"They are willing to reply, presumably because they got the news that I am familiar with Xiao Ye from the City Lord's Mansion, and they want to find out the truth. Even so, I still have to trouble Xiao Ye."

Jiang Beimu has long been a conniving attitude towards Tan Qiu's small movements from time to time. Even though Tan Qiu obviously didn't listen carefully at the moment and just leaned on him to play with his hair with his fingers, Jiang Beimu still didn't make a sound to stop him.

After a while, the carriage stopped slowly. Jiang Beimu lifted a corner of the curtain with his fingers, looked out, saw the word Xiaohezhuang, then put down the curtain, and said to Tan Qiu, "We're here, let's go."

Jiang Beimu stepped out of the carriage first, and Tan Qiu squatted down behind him. He wanted to jump down slowly, but unexpectedly his waist tightened, and Jiang Beimu directly supported him with one hand and put the other on his back. He half dragged and half hugged him around his waist.

Tan Qiu blinked and looked at Jiang Beimu motionlessly.

Jiang Beimu felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by that fiery gaze, raised his hand to touch the bridge of his nose and said, "Your leg is injured, it's inconvenient to go up and down."

"Oh..." Tan Qiu dragged his tone, with an inexplicable look on his face, and whispered to Jiang Bei in admiration: "It's okay to take the opportunity to eat some tofu while the master is hugging me, I won't bark."

Jiang Beimu coughed twice, turned sideways and told the coachman to wait on the spot, and then walked towards Xiaohezhuang without waiting for Tanqiu to say anything.

Tan Qiu curled his lips and followed behind Jiang Beimu.

Xu Shi, the guard in front of the gate, got Xiao Ye's order, and saw that it was Jiang Beimu, so he didn't stop him. The two of them walked all the way, walking towards the backyard according to the memory of when they came back.

A few feet away from the small building in the backyard, Tan Qiu heard Xiao Ye's carefree voice, accompanied by the creaking sound, and when the two approached, he saw Xiao Ye sitting in the courtyard with his hands in his hands. Holding a pounding medicine pestle, he was working hard there, while Fu He was standing on a shelf of medicinal materials beside him, holding a small sieve in one hand, and was taking medicinal materials from that shelf.

And Xiao Ye's side was full of these small sieves.

Standing outside the courtyard, Jiang Beimu coughed lightly. Xiao Ye's eyes lit up when he heard the sound in the courtyard. He hurriedly put down the pestle in his hand, got up and greeted him.

"Brother Jiang." Xiao Ye looked at Jiang Beimu with a smile, "Why didn't you tell me in advance when you have time today, and I haven't prepared anything here, look...hey"

"I dare not bother you, I still have something to entrust you with today." Jiang Beimu smiled slightly.

"Brother Jiang said this, how can it be troublesome to find a brother to do things? After all, if there is something I can use, I will definitely do my best." Xiao Ye clapped his hands, just as Fu He came forward with a sieve on his shoulders, Chao Tanqiu and Jiang Beimu smiled and nodded, as a greeting.

Tan Qiu secretly poked Jiang Beimu's waist with his finger. Jiang Beimu's body trembled slightly, and then he looked sideways without showing any signs.

Tan Qiu pursed his lips, and Jiang Beimu coughed lightly, as if a little embarrassed, Tan Qiu stared at him so quietly, almost scalding a hole behind Jiang Beimu like a fire.

"Brother Jiang?" Seeing that Jiang Beimu was distracted, Xiao Ye called out, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Jiang Beimu coughed a few times, shook his head and said, "It's okay."

Tan Qiu was upset when he saw this, Xiao Ye ignored him when they met, Jiang Beimu didn't say a word, Tan Qiu became more and more angry when he thought about it, and suddenly his eyes fell on Fu He who was quiet beside him, and he hummed softly, Deliberately yelled loudly: "Ah! It's been a long time since my brother and sister have seen each other, why have you lost so much weight?"

After saying that, he stretched out his hand, stepped forward to hug Fu He in his arms, and immediately caught Xiao Ye and Jiang Beimu by surprise.

Fu He didn't seem to have reacted, and when he was hugged tightly, he struggled belatedly, smiled awkwardly and raised his hand to pat Tan Qiu's back.

Xiao Ye was the first to react, and hurriedly continued with a smile: "Isn't he busy with that case? We've gone to see it here, and we've told you everything we need to say, Brother Jiang. So, we don’t spend money to buy the medicinal materials we have, isn’t it a waste, just as we have enough medicinal materials in Xiaohe Village, not to mention anything else.”

"Come on, let's go inside and have a good chat." Tan Qiu ignored Xiao Ye and walked towards the house with Fu He in his arms.

Xiao Ye was at a loss, seeing that Tan Qiu almost "snatched" Fu He away, he touched his head in confusion, and murmured to Jiang Bei, "What's wrong...?"

Jiang Beimu sighed secretly, he knew that Xiao Ye had always been careless in his affairs, if he didn't say it, he might be thinking about it and couldn't figure it out, so he had no choice but to say: "Your sister-in-law is more vengeful."

After saying that, he patted Xiao Ye on the shoulder, and followed Tan Qiu into the house, leaving Xiao Ye stunned alone.

Xiao Ye pinched his leg, gasped in pain, looked at Jiang Beimu's back, and said, "It's not a dream, my sister-in-law? Could it be real? Then what happened last time..."

Xiao Ye stood there thinking for a long time, clapped his hands suddenly, and immediately understood the ins and outs. He flicked his robe and yelled: "Sister-in-law, do you want some tea?"

Tan Qiu was lifting up his trouser legs to show Fu He the scratch. Hearing this, he turned his head to look at Xiao Ye who was running, and then looked sideways at Jiang Beimu who was standing with his arms folded, and said with a smile: "No. drank."

Fu He got up and took the medicine from the inside to apply on Tan Qiu. When the ointment touched the wound, it was icy cold, but it was very comfortable and relieved the slight tingling pain.

"Will this leave a scar?" Tan Qiu was a little nervous, after all, the one on his forehead is already conspicuous enough, leaving another one for himself would really be an eyesore.

Fu He shook his head and gestured for a while.Seeing this, Xiao Ye hurriedly came up to him and said dog-leggedly: "The wound is relatively shallow, just a slight injury, and it will be cured after using this medicine."

Seeing the two completely different attitudes between Xiao Ye and Fang Cai, Tan Qiu knew that it was what Jiang Beimu said to him. Although he didn't know the specific content of what Jiang Beimu said, Xiao Ye's attitude was enough to explain everything.

Tan Qiu disappeared completely with all the unforeseen circumstances just now.

Tan Qiu was like a cat that got a big fish, and smiled contentedly.Jiang Beimu couldn't stand it any longer, and interjected, "I'll let you rest assured on the other side of the case. Are you sure when that person will wake up?"

Xiao Ye and Fu He looked at each other, and Fu He made a three-character gesture.

"Three days..." Jiang Beimu pondered for a while.

"Three days is just normal. It needs medicine and acupuncture. We have a preliminary plan for the antidote. If everything is normal, he will be able to speak clearly in three days."

Seeing this, Xiao Ye explained, "If three days feels like a long time, then we can also take strong medicine, but people can wake up, when to speak, and whether they are conscious or not can't be guaranteed."

"No, three days is fine. You don't need to rush for quick success. As long as you can save the person, then the case will be easy." Jiang Beimu shook his head and vetoed, heaved a sigh of relief, and then continued: "Speaking of which, my house has one There is a dinner party, and you two need to show your face."

"Yo." Xiao Ye didn't forget to tease Jiang Beimu, "Brother Jiang even threw a banquet, it's formal enough, didn't he just invite the brothers to have a drink, at most he went to the flower house."

Tan Qiuyi looked at Jiang Beimu pointedly.

Jiang Beimu said with a smile: "You are so talkative when I invite you to dinner, it seems that all you need is Fu He, you can stay at home."

"Don't, don't, don't." Xiao Ye hurriedly said with a sneer, "Hey, brother Jiang treats you, we have to climb over."

"This banquet is not just you and my family, but also the four families of Wang, Zhao, Li and Liu in the city. I just don't know who is here. Another reason for inviting you is that I hope you can stand in my way. Now What happened to my shop, I think it will be troubled for a long time, and there is no guarantee that other shops will not take advantage of it."

"With you here, at least they will be scruples about some forces in the City Lord's Mansion."

Jiang Beimu didn't hide anything, he spoke bluntly, Xiao Ye's idle expression slowly disappeared, his complexion gradually became dignified, his eyes fell on the coffee table in front of him, he pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Jiang has a trust, brother, I must help of."

"It's just... there's one thing, I don't know whether I should say it or not."

Jiang Beimu raised his chin slightly, indicating that it is enough to speak bluntly.

Only then did Xiao Ye purse his lips, and said, "Do you still remember the name of the most famous rouge, gouache, and pearl jewelry in the capital?"

"Yimenglou?"

Xiao Ye nodded, "This is one of the main industries of the Liu family, but there is another one, Brother Jiang, you may not have heard of it before, and there is another company called Meng Wushan."

"They are all Mengzi brands, but Mengwushan does not do business with the common people. In short, Mengwushan is only supplied to the emperor's relatives."

Jiang Beimu raised his eyebrows slightly, not knowing what Xiao Ye was doing in such a big circle.

"This... the proprietress of Mengwu Mountain is the eldest daughter of the Liu family. She grew up in the capital since she was a child. Years ago..." Xiao Ye paused, looked at Jiang Beimu, saw that his expression was normal, and then continued said:

"A year ago, she was betrothed to the eldest son of the Duke of Zhen."

"This Liu family... Brother Jiang, do you still want to see him?"
