Kite falling into red dust

Afterwards, the boy named Xiao Fei led them to two dilapidated thatched huts hidden in the prosperous and magnificent royal city.The small yard is full of weeds, and the house is really barren: a few simple furniture are covered with dust, an empty bed is covered with a layer of straw, and a torn quilt with cotton wool exposed is piled up.Raising his head, the sun shines straight in through several holes in the roof.In the kitchen, the stove is still there, but the pot has disappeared.

Xiao Langhao looked around, and said: "Are you the only one living here, Xiao Fei?" Xiao Fei nodded and said, "Xiao Fei has no other relatives." Xiao Langhao knelt down in front of him, and said, "No You live here, can my brother take you to a good place?" "Where are you going?" he asked. "That place is called Orphanage. It has a beautiful house, a comfortable bed and many people who take care of you. Do you want to go?"

Xiao Fei blinked his eyes, "Is there any meat buns to eat?" Xiao Langhao laughed with a "puchi" and said, "Yes, you can have whatever you want." He thought he would definitely be tempted by this time, but he still had doubts. He stared at them and said, "Is there really such a good place? But I don't even know you, so why should I trust you?"

Xiao Langhao had no choice but to reveal his identity: "My name is Xiao Langhao, and this orphanage was donated by my father." "Xiao Langhao? I've never heard of this name!" Xiao Fei shook his head.

Murong Mingyu couldn't stand it anymore, took off a jade pendant from his waist, and handed it to Xiao Fei, "Hey, take this." "Wow, what a beautiful jade pendant!" Xiao Fei held it in his hand and looked at it over and over again, " I remember that shopkeeper Liu at the pawn shop also has a piece similar to this one, but the quality is far worse than this one."

Xiao Langhao asked suspiciously: "Do you know what kind of jade pendant the shopkeeper wears?" Murong Mingyu, "So, you are also a rich man?" He smiled slightly and said, "You are a very, very rich man. Why do you imagine that a rich man like me would lie to a helpless man like you?" What about the child?" Xiao Fei thought about it, and said, "It seems to make sense..."

"It doesn't matter if you still don't believe us," Murong Mingyu took the jade pendant and hung it around his neck, "You first take my jade pendant and follow Brother Xiao to the orphanage, if you find out that we lied to you , or if you don't like that place, this is yours, and you can sell it for money." Xiao Fei rolled his eyes, "It seems that the deal is not a loss."

"No, a very rich person like me won't lie to a child," Murong Mingyu changed the subject, "but if you take my jade pendant, you have to promise me one thing, no matter what, you will never cheat on children." You can steal things again, can you do it?" Xiao Fei hesitated for a while holding the jade pendant, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, I promise you."

"Then you can go with Brother Xiao." "Okay!" After saying that, Xiao Fei rushed out.

"Yu, why do you want me to send him off alone? What are you going to do?" Xiao Langhao asked. "You can leave this kind of trivial matter to you. I have other things to do." "What is it?"

He deliberately put on a straight face, and said in a serious tone: "Is this something you, a commoner, should ask?"

"Your Highness shouldn't have walked so far alone when your subordinate is not around." A deep and cold voice suddenly came from behind, which made Murong Mingyu shudder and pretended to be disapproving. Turning around, he said: "This is in the capital, who is so bold as to murder me? What happened to the matter I asked you to investigate?"

Mo Yuan replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, my subordinates have found out that the siblings were originally a pair of orphans. They were adopted and raised by the famous scholar Luo Jianqing. They took his surname and traveled with him all the time until seven months ago. It was only after she entered Xingjing that she became a geisha in the Banished Fairy Pavilion."

"Very good, you did a good job on this matter." Murong Mingyu nodded approvingly. "It's just a small matter. But when my subordinates came to Beijing, they heard about a not-so-small matter." "What?"

"The mansion of Wei Benrong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, was stolen. I heard that a lot of valuables were lost, and they have been handed over to the Fujing Mansion for investigation." "When did it happen?" The two of them were talking as they rushed back from the thatched cottage to the center of the city. talk. "I heard that it was Choushi early this morning, when even the cooks in the kitchen didn't get up at that time, the thieves took the opportunity to sneak into Wei's mansion. But he was discovered when he was leaving. Wei Shangshu's mansion invited many martial arts masters to be guards. , Surrounded him. However, the thief's martial arts were even higher, and more than a dozen martial arts masters managed to escape without even touching a single hair of his hair."

"What do you think?" Murong Mingyu asked him. "Mo Yuan believes that if the thief is as powerful in martial arts as described by Ding of the Wei Mansion, he will definitely not be an ordinary thief. You should be able to find out information about this person in the Jianghu. Does Your Highness need it?" Murong Mingyu smiled. He said: "No need, Wei Shangshu's family affairs can be handled by him himself, let alone handed over to the Fujing Mansion? I'm hungry, let's go eat!"

"Is Your Highness going back home for dinner?" "Hush!" Murong Mingyu lowered his voice, "There are so many people here, please keep your voice down! Did you forget? Call your son outside! I finally asked my father for three days' leave , of course you can’t be bored in the mansion.” He said, he raised his voice slightly, “Come on, follow me to Zuixianlou for dinner.” Mo Yuan replied, “No, my lord.”

It happened to be noon, and the best and most expensive restaurant in Beijing, Zuixianlou, was full of seats, and ordinary people could not squeeze in even if they had money.But Murong Mingyu likes to come here the most in his spare time, so that every mistress here knows his identity.So as soon as he and Mo Yuan entered, Xiao Er immediately went up to welcome them and led them to the private room on the top floor.

"Sit down and eat together, you haven't even eaten a grain of rice after running all night!" Murong Mingyu called to Mo Yuan.But Mo Yuan said with a cold face: "This is against the rules." The smile on Murong Mingyu's face immediately collapsed, "Why do you always spoil Bengong's interest? Now Bengong orders you to sit down and eat. No nonsense!"

Watching him sit down and eat the meal expressionlessly, Murong Mingyu poured a cup of old daughter's red into his mouth sullenly.

Suddenly, a person pushed the door and broke in, sat down at the table, said: "The old branch made me work, but he didn't call me for dinner, how disrespectful!" After saying that, Xiao Langhao poured the wine for himself. With a cup of tea, he turned his head and saw Mo Yuan, "Eh? When did Mo Yuan come back? It's so strange today, I actually had dinner at the same table with your master."

Mo Yuan paused, and said: "It's Your Highness..." Murong Mingyu immediately interrupted him, "Didn't I just say it? Don't talk nonsense, eat your meal!" He could only lower his head, put the words he wanted to argue with the meal Swallow them together.

Xiao Langhao couldn't help laughing and said: "Mo Yuan is still so cute!" He didn't care about Mo Yuan's secretly staring at him, and continued to say with great interest: "Yu, have you heard? gone."
