In the city, there must be a lot of things to be busy, so I won't bother you as a father, Nan'er, let's go. "

Zhuo Nan immediately grabbed his sleeve. "Father, I want to stay another day."

Zhuo Yunzhang's eyes were slightly cold. "No, your mother is not feeling well these few days, you should spend more time with her."

Zhuonandun was frightened, and said in a low voice: "Okay, come back as soon as you come back, and you will kill me."

After the two left, Qi Chuxiao immediately turned around and reprimanded them.

"Shen Su, what's the matter with you?"

Shen Su smiled and said: "I'm sorry, I was curious for a while, so I didn't control my mouth."

Qi Chuxiao said in her heart, I think you clearly did it on purpose.

"Actually, it's not a secret. The adoptive father resigned because he got in touch with the envoys of Xifan and later broke out about the chaos in the party."

Shen Su hummed and said: "Does your adoptive father know how to protect himself wisely?"

"Those who work in the officialdom are much smarter than us."

Shen Su was noncommittal, and then asked: "Xiao'er, did you really pick up that dagger in a small courtyard?"

Thinking of the spies in Yingzhou, Qi Chuxiao's voice was a little heavy.

"To be precise, someone used this dagger to attack me, or someone wanted to use it to convey something to me. The strange thing is that I always feel familiar with this dagger, but I can't remember anything."

"Xiao'er, do you still remember what happened when you were a child, how did your adoptive father adopt you?"

Qi Chuxiao shook her head. "I only remember that there was a fire that killed my mother. As for why it caught fire, I have never been able to figure it out, but it has been so many years, and there is nothing to worry about."

Shen Su leaned slightly, and asked tentatively, "What about your father?"

Qi Chuxiao was silent for a while and said: "I don't remember, maybe my father died a long time ago."

Shen Su tightened her fingers on the fan, and immediately grabbed Qi Chuxiao's hand.

"Don't think about it if you can't remember it. If the old man is still alive, he will definitely meet you one day."

Qi Chuxiao sneered and said, "I don't think there's any need for that. If he can abandon me and my mother, he must not be a good person. I don't see what he can do with such an irresponsible person."

"Nonsense, how do you know that he is irresponsible? There is no one in the world who doesn't love his wife and children. He can't accompany you. Maybe he has encountered some uncontrollable things. I believe he still misses you in his heart."

Seeing how solemn Shen Su said, Qi Chuxiao squinted at him: "Hey, you have a wife and children behind my back, don't you, otherwise how could you have such deep feelings?"

Shen Sudun laughed angrily at these words, picked his chin with a folding fan and said: "If you can give me one, I'm very willing to have it."

"Fuck your ass."

Qi Chuxiao was not as thick-skinned as he was, she immediately stood up from embarrassment, only to see Su Xianxue walking out of the room coldly.

He said lightly: "Go ahead, both of you, I'm going to meet a friend, so don't bother me."

"Young Master Su."

Qi Chuxiao yelled, but Su Xianxue didn't look back, and suddenly thought of what he said about looking for Su Yan, and couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"Young Master Su once asked me to go to the Jiaofang Division to find someone named Su Yan, do you know that?"

Shen Su shook his head, but he could also guess that Su Xianxue followed him to the capital, not just for the Bai family.

"Could it be that Su Xianxue is also an official?"

"It should be."

Shen Su picked up the folding fan and tapped on her slender fingers.

"I've heard people say that there was an official surnamed Su more than ten years ago who was in..."

Shen Su seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly closed her mouth again.

"Xiao'er, I'm hungry, you don't eat until noon, do you?"

46. Past events

"Are you a pig? You don't get fat after eating dry."

Qi Chuxiao rolled his eyes at him, then headed towards the kitchen to the west.

Shen Su looked at him with a smile, but her gaze had already passed through his body and landed far away.

Back then, there were three people who married Uncle Feng in Jinlan, one was surnamed Bai, and the other was surnamed Su. I heard that they were later demoted to be the county magistrate of Jintang County. All these years, Shen Su thought that the Su family was doing well, so she never deliberately inquired about it. The Su family, if Su Xianxue is really Su Yuandong's son and has a close relationship with him, then he can't ignore his affairs.

As for the matter of the Bai family, what he knew was another version.

Back then, Bai Chongyi obeyed orders and was in charge of the six sects, but because he knew something he shouldn't have known, he had to resign to save his life. He didn't want to be hunted down mercilessly, resulting in the tragic death of one sect.

The righteous brother Shen Tianfeng desperately rescued the youngest son of the Bai family and brought him back to the Shen family. He didn't want the killer to follow and set fire to the village. The only blood of the righteous brother, and then fled in a hurry with Bai Ziyin, who was only a few years old...

There is another person who has a lot to do with Shen Tianfeng, that is Jin Yihou Zhuo Yunzhang.He met Shen Tianfeng when he was in his twenties, and he respected him quite a lot, but Shen Tianfeng didn't want to be an official, and refused repeatedly, even avoiding them like snakes and scorpions. Later, when he got acquainted with Bai Su and Bai Su, he completely severed contact with Zhuo Yunzhang.

Now I was shocked to see that Zhuo Yunzhang had become Qi Chuxiao's adoptive father, and my heart was already like a stormy sea, and it was difficult to calm down.

Although he spent a short time with Shen Tianfeng's son, he still remembered the red birthmark on his neck. There was no doubt that Qi Chuxiao was Shen Tianfeng's son, Shen Xiao.

If it was really Zhuo Yunzhang who saved Qi Chuxiao, he must have been near Shen's house that day, Lingnan is far away from the capital, and Shen Su had to think carefully that he, a lord, could appear at such a coincident time.

If he came here to save Shen Tianfeng, where did he get the news?

Although Bai Chongyi resigned from office back then, there were still many loyal old members in the six doors, and he escaped death several times, all thanks to these news, but there was no news about the last disaster, so it was only possible There is a possibility that it was not the official family who did it.

Zhuo Yunzhang's appearance in such a timely manner must have something to do with him.

Seeing the expression on his face when he saw the dagger just now, Shen Su became more and more convinced that her deduction was correct.

It's a pity that he has never seen the spirit tablet engraved with Zhuo Yunzhang's name that appeared in the Bai family, and he has never exchanged messages with Su Xianxue, otherwise he would not have wasted so much brains.

At this moment, Su Xianxue had come to a low house on the outskirts of the city, and when he opened the door, he smelled an extremely strong smell of medicine.

"Grandma Hua."

Su Xianxue stooped into the courtyard, and a hunched old woman with a veil came out from inside.

"Ahem, why are you here?"

Su Xianxue quickly supported her, and her cold handsome face melted instantly.

"I don't worry about my mother-in-law. When I know you have arrived in the capital, I will rush over to have a look."

"It's okay, I can't die yet."

Granny Hua grabbed his hand, panted and sat on the adobe beside her, looked at him and asked, "Have you found the person you're looking for?"

Su Xianxue shook her head. "Jiaofangsi is not something that ordinary people can enter. I have already asked Qi Chuxiao. He has the token of the six doors. It shouldn't be difficult to enter."

Granny Hua snorted and said, "Don't believe the nonsense of those running dogs. I asked you to stay with Shen Su to supervise the affairs of the Bai family. Don't treat these two as friends."

Su Xianxue's expression changed, and she said respectfully, "Xianxue knows."

After hesitating for a while, he asked again: "The man surnamed Shen is full of mysteries. Why did my mother-in-law suddenly let me follow him? Can he really help the Bai family?"

"I'm not sure either, I just think this might be an opportunity."

Granny Hua closed her eyes, and remembered what Shen Su said.

If the mother-in-law is from the Bai family, you can trust me.

The bigger reason is that he is holding a half piece of ancient jade that only the Bai family has in his hand...

It's just that he has something to do with the person surnamed Shen. If that person surnamed Shen hadn't tipped Zhuo Yunzhang back then, how would the old thief have found the Bai family!

Some memories that I didn't want to mention flashed out of my mind, and Granny Hua suddenly coughed violently again.

"Grandma, I'll get you medicine right now."

Su Xianxue stood up, but was stopped by Granny Hua.

"No need, don't stay too long, don't let Shen and Qi know that I'm also in the capital."

"Xianxue knows."

Granny Hua waved her hand.

"Let's go then, I won't look for you, and you won't come here again."

Su Xianxue sighed, put the sweet potatoes and some preserved fruits bought on the way into the room, and then turned and left.

Granny Hua stood up tremblingly, when a gust of wind blew, the veil on her face immediately fell off, revealing a stunning face, but unfortunately, that face was criss-crossed and covered with red scars that made hair stand on end...

Su Xianxue didn't look back, and naturally she didn't see it either.

His life was saved by Granny Hua. That day he rolled out of the car into the grass and ran for his life. However, his body was too weak, and he was caught up by the officials before he ran very far. When it rained from the sky, he lost consciousness, and when he woke up, he saw Granny Hua.

Afterwards, Granny Hua took him back to Yingzhou, where he lived with each other in that broken yard, until she heard that the Zhou family was going to occupy the house of the Bai family, Granny Hua let him go out to pretend to be a ghost to scare people.

Although he was thinking about his sister all the time, he couldn't bear to leave Granny Hua. If he hadn't known that she would also come to the capital, he would not have agreed to go with Shen and Qi. Thinking of his life with her mother-in-law for more than ten years, Su Xianxue's throat felt astringent. He quickened his pace even more.

As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Shen Su standing on the gazebo.

He didn't have a good impression of Shen Su, so he pretended not to see her and walked to his room.

Shen Su has already come down from the gazebo.

"where did you go?"

Su Xianxue said coldly:
