After confirming that there was no other mystery in the alley, Ruan Qingwu jumped on the roof of the alley and thought about the role he played in it.

Since Xu Cheng's voice can be heard, it can be deduced that he is not playing Xu Cheng, and according to the legend, the city owner and Fan Niang would not know until Xu Cheng told them.So the one who knew the details and didn't kill Xu Cheng to silence him... was the only one left.

Ruan Rongzhi.

Did this person who had almost no sense of presence in the first half of the legend already know the enemy's plan from the beginning?Then why don't you tell the city owner yourself, but wait for Xu Cheng to tell the city owner and Fan Niang?

If it is deduced according to the legend, then Ruan Rongzhi's inaction was to give Xu Cheng a chance to fulfill Xu Cheng and Fan Niang?

Then when Xu Cheng was trying to find a way to notify the city lord and Fan Niang, what would Rong Zhi do?

Forget it, let's follow Xu Cheng.

Ruan Qingwu rubbed his nose, followed what Xu Cheng said before, and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord's Mansion is located in the center of the ancient canal city, and it is not difficult to find. Ruan Qingwu followed the road and walked through the compound with many deep gates.If the place where she woke up before was regarded as the entertainment district of Guqu City, then the direction Ye Nanxing chose was the dignitaries' district of Guqu City, which was not far from the City Lord's Mansion, but not too close.

However, just as she was walking past a certain mansion, she heard the sound of a piano.

Ok?

She jumped up to the top of the wall, and was surprised to find that inside the gray wall, peach blossoms were burning and blooming alive, and then the voices of two maidservants came from under the tree.

"Hey, have you heard that that young man named Xu Cheng seems to be trying to rob Fan Niang from our son."

"Really?" Another asked in surprise.

"Really, it is said that someone saw him going all the way to the city lord's mansion." The original one said, "Although...although he is pretty good-looking, he is still not as good as our young master, who is as refreshing as our young master. How can a poor scholar compare to a man of the moon."

Ruan Qingwu listened amusedly, changed his pen, and mischievously beat the peach blossom branch tremblingly, the two maidservants were startled, and left in a hurry.

Then Ruan Qingwu jumped off the wall, couldn't help but smiled again, looked up and looked around, this place should be a garden of Ruan's family, the pavilions, terraces and buildings are all small and neat, and there is a small pavilion in the peach blossom forest , and there happened to be a piano in the pavilion.

The sound of the piano that attracted Qingwu stopped here, as if it was inviting Qingwu to go up.

"Do you want me to play it?" Qing Wu touched his chin, walked to the pavilion, and sat in front of the piano.

At this time, she heard the voice of speaking again.

"If you want to talk about the peach blossom forest in our mansion, even the city lord is full of praise. Have you heard of it? Then what's the word "hundreds of steps between the banks, no miscellaneous trees, fresh grass, falling... .fall....'"

"Luoying is colorful, cut it, thought that after reading poems and books with the young master for a few days, I can just pull out a sentence of Wen Yao? I know more than you as a study room reader!"

"That's right, that Xu Cheng, I heard that Fan Niang likes him, I don't know if it's true or not."

"Who knows? Let me tell you, a woman's heart is the most fickle. Fan Niang and my son have been childhood sweethearts for so many years, and a poor scholar came here at random. Ah, just handing a flower can make her change her heart easily, eh. …”

"Heh, haven't you heard that the Goddess intends to be ruthless to King Xiang? She has changed her mind, but it's hard to say whether my young master has that intention for her."

"After all, our Ruan Mansion is a powerful family with ancestral marquises. Now that the new emperor is first established, it is said that the family will be attacked by the family. It is rare for a family like ours to rely on the new emperor. It is currently in front of the new emperor. Red man, that Fan Niang married our young master, among other things, the wealth will definitely not be less!"

"Not to mention, do you know where the six kings have been fighting recently? Yi County, Yi County is only a hundred miles away from here, will this place..."

"Go, go, tomorrow is my son's big day, so what are you talking about? If the housekeeper hears it, watch your skin carefully. Do you know why I come to manage the study? Back then, I was also the person who followed behind the son. Then I said a wrong sentence, and I was sent here, hey, the past is too bad to look back..."

The sound gradually faded away, Ruan Qingwu listened for a while, put his hands on the strings, concentrated, after a long while, his fingers moved together, and began to play.

The same piano sound as before sounded again, drifting away into the gray sky.

Then, I heard a sigh from the side, "Hey, Mr. Ruan, I'm busy, but you are hiding here."

It was Xu Cheng's voice.

Ruan Qingwu didn't make a sound, and continued to play the piano.

"Hey, I have promised the city lord to do an extremely dangerous thing, haha, even though we agreed to come back, I can marry her..." Xu Cheng's voice was tinged with loneliness, "However, if you don't dream, maybe you will marry her." Never come back."

"You can't say it to death, maybe you can come back and it's not yet known." Ruan Qingwu just thought this in his heart when he heard Ruan Rongzhi's voice answer.

"Huh?" Xu Cheng seemed to be quite frightened, "So you've been listening?" He exaggeratedly said, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, "Phew, I was shocked."

"Since you said it," Ruan Qingwu heard Rong Zhi say with a smile, "Then whether to listen or not is my business, and whether to say it or not is still my business?"

The dance grass is exactly the same.Ruan Qingwu slandered in his heart, it turns out that the combination of the eight characters has such an effect, which is also strange.

But let's just listen to the story, the other party doesn't want to show up, and Qingwu can't force him to show up, and it happens that she is also very curious about the story back then, so it doesn't hurt to just read it like this.

"Xu is just a poor scholar," Xu Cheng said indifferently, "wars have been raging, Xu's hometown has been destroyed by the war, his parents have disappeared, and he is really homeless. In this troubled world, like Xu I'm afraid there are quite a few people like this...Even if they die, who will remember them?" He laughed at himself.

"...I will." Ruan Rongzhi was silent for a moment, then said, "If I'm still alive."

"Haha, it's really strange, you are, and so is Fan Niang," Xu Cheng laughed, and said in a casual tone, "In this troubled world, there are many dignitaries who treat poor scholars like me as human beings, you and She's different."

"Maybe." Ruan Rongzhi said.

"Can you answer a question for me?" Xu Cheng asked suddenly. "Why help me enter the City Lord's Mansion?"

"Because I'm happy." Ruan Rongzhi said lightly.

"Ha, whatever." Xu Cheng laughed, and said slowly, "I, Xu Cheng, will fight for you today."

"Ruan thank you, son, for his great virtue." Ruan Rongzhi said.

"Don't call me son, son, I feel uncomfortable after hearing that," Xu Cheng said, "My name is Cheng, and my name is Baizhi. Call me Baizhi."

The sound was gone again.

"Next, where should we go?" Ruan Qingwu stopped playing, and plucked the strings, "Forget it, since you want me to go to the City Lord's Mansion, then I will go to the City Lord's Mansion."

She stood up, the peach blossom petals fluttered down and landed on her shoulders, she stretched out her hand to brush them away, glanced at the peach blossom tree, and sighed.He jumped up to the top of the wall and flipped out.Head towards the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

In just half a cup of tea, Ruan Qingwu arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

The vermilion gate stood majestically, and the stone lions on both sides stood majestically and silently. Ruan Qingwu deduced his role and decided to knock on the door openly.So she knocked the animal head knocker on the gate.

"It turned out to be Mr. Ruan. I don't know why Mr. Ruan came here?" After a while, the polite voice of the guard at the door came.

However, this voice was very familiar to Ruan Qingwu, it was the rather masculine and heroic voice heard in the alley.Ruan Qingwu raised his eyebrows, and heard Ruan Rongzhi say softly, "Ruan has already heard about Xu Cheng, so he came here to discuss with the city lord about the marriage."

"So that's how it is, Rong Xiao is very smart." said the guard.

Then, the door opened slowly, and Ruan Qingwu walked in without hesitation.Cross the screen wall at the entrance, pass through the moon gate, walk through the winding corridor, and then stop in front of a door that is obviously a study.Standing in front of the door, she heard the servant girl say, "Mr. Ruan is here? The master is reading in the study, let the servant girl report."

"Yeah." Ruan Rongzhi nodded.

After a while, the maid said, "Mr. Ruan, please."

Ruan Qingwu followed the opened door and walked in.

However, when she just stepped into the door, she suddenly felt something was wrong.

Murderous.

She immediately sacrificed the horned dragon, blocking the blow towards her gate of life.

"Not good." Ruan Qingwu thought, she couldn't see the ghosts' movements, and it might be quite difficult to deal with them, but she couldn't allow her to think carefully, the ghost saw that one blow was impossible, and attacked Qingwu even more fiercely.

The horned dragon in Ruan Qingwu's hand was spinning like the wind, and he blocked part of the attack, but his sleeve suffered a lot, with several scratches.

"Tsk, this is one of my favorite pieces." Ruan Qingwu frowned, the candle dragon in her hand was shining brightly, she closed her eyes intently, feeling the traces of ghosts, and then risked a few injuries, put the candle The dragon stabbed into the empty void.

The ghost howled and disappeared in a puff of black smoke.

"Candle Dragon Lin? It's really a good thing." At this moment, a lazy and charming voice came from behind her.

Ruan Qingwu turned around, looked at the woman in red, and said firmly, "Are you Fan Niang?"

"I am." Fan Niang said with a chuckle.

"This is your illusion?" Qingwu asked.

"No," Fan Niang shook her head, "I think you should have guessed it, this place is considered half a world, and half a world. So people who die here will also die in reality."

"I know." Ruan Qingwu said lightly, "So?"

"Haha," Fan Niang laughed, and said innocently with a bit of naughtiness, "I don't like such an empty place, I just came to tell you something."

"What's the matter?" Ruan Qingwu asked vigilantly with some bad premonition in his heart.

"That knife of yours." Wearing a mask, only the chin was exposed, even so, Fan Niang stretched out her index finger to wipe her lips, and said with a charming smile, "He seems to want to change the owner~"
