Su Xinyi returned to the house and waited for the two brothers to come back. After waiting for a long time, they came back and hurriedly went over to ask about the situation. New 𝗑.𝖼𝗈𝗆 Google Search Reading

Su Den looked at the sixth sister and said, "Ma Rude didn't show up at Yingqu Pavilion, but Su Qi and I inquired carefully and found that he had indeed been there before. As for what he was doing, we couldn't find out."

Su Qi also nodded, "This Ma Rude is indeed cautious and thorough in his work, and he is also very bold. It is not easy to be one of the four major salt merchants. However, Brother Deng and I also found some interesting things. This Yingqu The pavilion should have been a private gathering place for the four major salt merchants in the past, but since Ma Rude was wanted, there have been no gatherings here."

Su Xinyi listened to the news and thought for a while before saying: "If this is the case, will there be any evidence of their gathering in Yingqu Pavilion?"

"We met Mr. Yang on the way back. He will take over this matter. We don't need to take risks anymore." Su Qi and Yang Jin have also met several times. Because Xin Yi is not on good terms with them, Yang Jin was also very easy to talk to when she saw him.

Su Xinyi didn't think it was surprising. Yang Jin had always been very conscientious. She thought about it and said, "Then let's wait. Maybe His Highness has other arrangements. Let's not ruin His Highness's layout."

Moreover, Shang Junyan is also here. With him assisting His Highness, the Yan Yin case will be investigated very quickly.

As for the fugitive Ma Rude, Commander Jie is such a smart person. If he can connect with His Royal Highness this time, he will definitely not return empty-handed. Capturing Ma Rude requires a large number of manpower. Commander Jie does not have many others and has many soldiers. I will definitely help you again.

that is……

Su Xinyi looked at Su Qi, "Second brother, why haven't you seen the eldest brother?"

Didn't Su Yi follow His Highness south?

Why didn't you see anyone?

The two siblings looked at each other, and then they remembered that there was an older brother who was also powerful.

Su Deng was laughing to death and lit a candle for Su Yi.

At this time, Su Yi had already met up with Jie Jing Lue, and the two were leading people on the road to round up Ma Rude. On the way, Su Yi found out that his sister and brother were both in Jing'an Mansion, and he felt really uneasy.

The Bible Execution Institute intends to marry the Duke of Qi, so of course it has to gain a good impression in front of this future brother-in-law. It is a pleasure for the two of them to get along.

Especially after knowing that Jie Jing Lue was still a helping hand to Sixth Sister, Su Yi looked at him and felt that this person was really good, righteous, kind and benevolent.

In this way, Su Xinyi and the others would be fine for the time being, and they couldn't come in vain anyway, especially since Su Deng and Su Qi knew that Su Xinyi had lived a hard life in the countryside, so they took her to eat, drink and have fun in Jing'an Mansion all day long.

Su Xinyi also found it interesting. In her previous life, she had money but she didn't know how to spend it. She had to get married not long after she came back from the countryside. After getting married, she fell into deep trouble. There was no such relaxing moment. Only now did she know how to spend money. It can really make people happy.

Not to mention the dazzling array of restaurants in Jing'an Prefecture, all kinds of delicacies from all over the world can make people linger here, such as the flower array wine shop, the sea of ​​fragrant mountains and medicinal herbs, the alleys of Youfang, the Yanguan Singlou and a variety of tile shops, including One day, I met a wedding team and watched a wedding ceremony with everyone. Su Xinyi was really eye-opening.

It turns out that there are many happy things in the world, but she doesn't know.

After a few days of this, Su Xinyi finally understood why some people were so happy and reluctant to miss Shu in this beautiful fireworks field. It was really happy.

Su Xinyi bought all kinds of miscellaneous gifts when he saw suitable ones. Some of them were sent back to Huaining to be distributed among the clan members. Some of them were directly entrusted to the caravan to pay the entrusted silver and asked to be sent to the Duke of Qi's Mansion in the capital.

Su Xinyi hadn't seen her yet, but gifts were sent back one after another. People in Huaining and the capital were all pleasantly surprised, and they couldn't help but talk about her several times.

"Tomorrow is the birthday of Erlang Shen, and Shenbao Temple is very lively. Do you want to go and see it?" Suden looked at the sixth sister and asked.

Su Xinyi had never participated in this kind of festival but was quite interested, so she said, "Go."

"Everyone wants to burn the first stick of incense. Do you want to?" Su Qi asked with a smile.

Su Xinyi had never burned any incense. She didn't believe in gods and Buddhas in her previous life. If there were gods and Buddhas, how could they not sympathize with all living beings and make her life so miserable.

But now that she believes it, if there were no gods and Buddhas, how could she have this life again.

"I want to." Su Xinyi nodded. No matter which Bodhisattva blessed her with a chance to do it again, she wanted to burn some incense.

"Then we have to stay at Shenbo Temple tonight. There are so many people grabbing the first incense stick at the fifth watch. Only if you live in the temple can you have a chance to grab it." Su Den said.

None of the three of them thought of taking advantage of their family status. In such a day, it would only be interesting to fight with everyone.

So the three of them went to Shenbo Temple. Unfortunately, they arrived late and there were no extra houses in the temple. They had no choice but to spend a lot of money to stay overnight in a farmhouse outside the temple.

By this day, the supply of surrounding farmhouses was also in short supply, and Suden paid double the price for the house they were renting.

There were two huts, although they were simple but kept clean and tidy by the owner. Su Den and Su Qi had one, and Su Xinyi had one by herself. It was already dark when they settled in.

The three of them decided to go out to look for food. There were many food stalls on the roadside near Jinbo Temple. Before they walked in, the aroma hit them, making them feel even more empty.

The three of them found a seat at a stall selling cooked tung skin braised noodles and ordered a few side dishes. Su Xinyi also dressed up as a man. The three of them sat in the corner eating, drinking and writing reviews, which was another way of having fun.

Su Xinyi ate quickly and had a smaller appetite than her two brothers. After eating, the second brother stuffed her with a crystal soap and let her eat and play with it slowly.

Su Xinyi ate every bite and looked around. On a brightly lit night, there were a lot of people walking on the street. It was common for a family of four or five to come out together. Adults and children were holding hands, which made people feel... Happy.

Before Su Xinyi finished her cold drink, she saw a figure passing by on the opposite street corner. She was a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it.

Su Xinyi frowned, lowered his eyes and thought, who is it?

It seemed a bit familiar, it must be someone I knew, but I couldn't remember who it was for the moment.

There are very few acquaintances you can meet in a place like this. Those who are not in Jing'an Mansion can only be in Huaining or the capital...

Thinking of the capital, Su Xinyi's eyes lit up, yes, that figure from behind, Shi Zhongqian!

Su Xinyi stood up suddenly, startling Su Deng and Su Qi. They also stood up and looked at her, asking almost at the same time, "What's wrong?"

"I saw Shi Zhongqian!"

"What?" Su Qi's face changed slightly, "Why is he here? Could it be that he saw it wrong?"

"No!" Su Xinyi said with certainty, "There must be something weird about him coming here. Could it be because of Ma Rude? No, I have to catch up and have a look."

Su Xinyi left as soon as he said so. Su Deng Xiwu could catch up, but Su Qi had to be slower. After all, his kung fu was not as good as the two of them.

Su Xinyi ran a few steps, then turned back to look at the second brother, "Second brother, go and call Mu Xing and Cao Qing."

Su Qi nodded quickly, "Okay, I'll be back as soon as possible. Please pay attention to your safety."

The three of them acted separately. Su Xinyi and Su Deng passed through the crowd and chased towards the street where Shi Zhongqian disappeared. However, there were all open avenues near Shenbaoguan. In addition, tomorrow was the birthday of Erlang Shen, so people came to grab the first incense stick. There are many people, and it is even more crowded tonight.

Su Xinyi and Su Deng chased for two streets, but no one was caught. Su Deng looked at Su Xinyi and said, "This place is too big and there are many people. It is too difficult to find someone. Don't worry, let's look for it slowly. Since he is here, he will definitely not leave easily."

Su Xinyi nodded and talked about the relationship between Shi Zhongqian and Ma Rude. Su Deng's face became even more ugly, "If so, your guess should be correct. Shi Zhongqian traveled all the way south and was definitely not a tourist. Now I can't find Ma Rude everywhere, maybe I can find a hole in Shi Zhongqian. New"

Su Xinyi thought the same way, so she wanted to chase people immediately before.

Looking up, I saw a sea of ​​people, and it’s understandable that I lost track of them. There were too many people here, and it was Erlang Shen’s birthday tomorrow. In addition, in order to welcome tomorrow’s grand gathering, the government sent people to come today to collect the works produced by the official workshop and the calligraphy and art bureau. Items for visitors to play are placed.

It was already evening when Su Xinyi and others arrived, so they did not catch the grand occasion of the band playing to welcome these items to the temple during the day. However, there were many people who came to watch, many of whom came specially from surrounding counties. I will definitely not go back that day and will not leave until after tomorrow's event, so tonight there are particularly many people around Jinbo Temple.

It was also the first time that Su Xinyi saw so many people. It couldn't be said that it was crowded, but it was almost the same.

She sweated a lot and turned to look at Suden, "Brother Deng, this won't work. Let's go to the front and wait for the people to come."

Suden was also covered in sweat. He wiped his sweat and nodded, "Okay, if you really come to see Ma Rude and arrange to meet at a place like this, I guess it won't be far from the Taoist temple. Let's go find one in front of the temple." The place is full of cats.”

The two reached a consensus, walked around in a circle and returned to the front of the view, looking for a secluded place to lie.

Su Deng and Shi Zhongqian had never met before. After looking around, he went out and brought back two glasses of cold drinks. Su Xinyi took them and downed them in one gulp, and then she felt much better.

Su Deng went to return the cup and brought back a small bag of snacks made of melon, white peach and water pear to Su Xinyi, poured with sweet and sour juice, it tasted crisp and delicious, and it was so refreshing.

After one gulp, Su Xinyi's agitated mood was strangely soothed.

Su Deng took the opportunity to ask Su Xinyi about Shi Zhongqian's appearance. Su Xinyi thought for a while and described it carefully, and finally added, "When I first attacked the Duke of Qin's mansion, when I pressed Shi Zhongqian to the ground, I found that there was a mark on his earlobe. A small black mole."

The corner of Suden's mouth twitched, and he teased her with a smile, "I heard Su Qi say that if you are so fierce, be careful not to get married in the future."

Su Xinyi said: "What's the fun in getting married? I don't want to get married."

Would she step into the same trap twice?

Suden was happy. The sixth sister was interesting, but there was no one in his daughter's family who was not married. Now she was just talking hard, and he didn't take it to heart.

The two of them soon waited for Su Qi and Mu Xing and Cao Qing. They called them over and squatted in a corner to discuss the next action.

Cao Qing knew Shi Zhongqian and said, "Mu Xing and I will go to the area behind Shenbo Temple to look for us. Let's separate in the middle. It will be much easier this way."

It's like comparing Jinbokan to a big watermelon, split in half with one knife, and they find people in half.

With so many people at hand, he could only do this. Su Xinyi looked at Su Deng and Su Qi, "Brother Deng, please come with the second brother. The second brother knows Shi Zhongqian. I'll go and have a look inside. I won't find you there in an hour." Meet everyone you find."

Everyone nodded in agreement. They all knew Su Xinyi's ability. If he just walked around the temple, it would not be too dangerous and it would be feasible.

The group of people moved separately. Su Xinyi followed the crowd directly into the Shenbo Temple. There were two flag poles erected in front of the main hall for the artists who would perform tomorrow.

Su Xinyi glanced at the two flag poles with no interest. The statue of Erlang Zhenjun was enshrined in the main hall. She did not go in, but walked around the main hall to the back hall house.

The accommodation provided by Shenbao Temple for pilgrims are all in the backyard. The farther back you go, the cleaner it becomes. Only pilgrims living here will walk back and forth.

Su Xinyi walked among them under the cover of night, his eyes constantly looking around, but unfortunately he found nothing. When she walked to a mountain pavilion, her feet were sore from walking, so she sat on a stone bench to rest for a while. She leaned against the stone pillar and was covered by the night. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice her presence.

After Su Xinyi walked this time, a general map of Shenbo Temple had appeared in his mind. If he couldn't find anyone, he would have to risk exploring the houses where the pilgrims stayed.

Thinking about this in her mind, she suddenly heard the sound of slight footsteps. She had been hunting for many years and had an almost weird intuition. She subconsciously shrank her figure, flipped her wrist and grabbed a kite on the edge of the stone pavilion, turned over and pressed against the stone. The wall under the base.

In an instant, almost as soon as Su Xinyi hid, someone walked in and heard the footsteps of two people.

One person's steps were light and the other's steps were a little heavy. Su Xinyi slowed down his breathing and huddled under the stone foundation without moving.

"Is the matter done?"

Su Xinyi heard someone speak slightly urgently.

"It's not that easy. It's so evil. Roads are blocked everywhere now. It's so difficult to get out of Jing'an Mansion." Another person said in a very depressed tone.

"Master Li, you won't help?"

Su Xinyi's eyes lit up when he heard this sentence, Mr. Li... isn't it Li Ji who can be called Mr. Li here?

"Haha, it's easy to say anything when you take the money, but you won't recognize anyone if you turn against them after you take the money, you dog officer!"

"What should we do?"

"Isn't that former master from the capital here? Maybe he has a way. As long as he sends the person out of Jing'an Mansion, our brothers can get one hundred thousand taels of silver, and this deal will be successful no matter what."

Su Xinyi was stunned when he heard this. Feeling that these two people were not Ma Rude's guards, but the people he hired at a large price to open the way.

Moreover, when they mentioned Shi Zhongqian, Su Xinyi held back her temper and did not make a move. Moreover, she did not know the depth of the two of them, so one or two might not be able to win them all.

The people in the stone pavilion stopped talking and just sat like this. Su Xinyi felt that maybe they were waiting for him to find the crazy Shi Zhongqian!

Su Xinyi's legs were numb from squatting, but she didn't dare to move for fear of making a sound that would alert the two of them.

Time seemed to pass very slowly. Pedestrians who were passing by seemed to avoid the stone pavilion for some reason. Su Xinyi adjusted slightly and gradually heard footsteps approaching.

She counted the time, and it was almost an hour ago. If she didn't go out to meet her elder brother and the others, she didn't know if a few people would come in to look for someone. If she moved too much, Ma Rude's people would definitely find out, and that wouldn't be good.

Su Xinyi's ears carefully listened to the sounds around her. In addition to the slowly approaching footsteps, she also heard the slightest sound of leaves sliding.

Um?

Su Xinyi looked sideways at the position to her left.

The stone pavilion is divided into eight corners. The pillar base of this octagonal stone pavilion is also octagonal. From her side, she could not see whether there was anyone in the corner next to it.

She had a bad premonition. At this time, the two people in the stone pavilion were probably impatient with waiting, and they started chatting again. They did not mention Ma Rude's matter again, but instead talked nonsense from all over the world, mixed with this vulgarity. Slang that doesn't sound pleasant.

Su Xinyi relied on the sound of their conversation to quietly approach the stone wall on the left. When he reached the corner, Su Xinyi suddenly poked his head out, not expecting a dagger next to him to stab him in the cold light.

She immediately reached out to grab the other person's wrist and pressed it hard against the stone wall. Then she looked up and saw a familiar face under the moonlight.

His Royal Highness?

Yan Junchu also looked at Su Xinyi in surprise. Can he meet her here?

There was no sound when the two exchanged blows. At this time, the people in the pavilion were not disturbed. The two were still talking. It was probably because the person waiting had not come, and their tone became more and more anxious.

Yan Junchu and Su Xinyi looked at each other and were speechless. Su Xinyi moved to Yan Junchu's side on tiptoes, and then put down the hand holding his wrist, feeling a little uncomfortable.

She thought it was an enemy before, and the force was a bit too strong. She wondered if His Highness the Crown Prince's wrists would become green.

Yan Junchu retracted his arm calmly, not wanting to disturb the people in the pavilion. The two stared at each other.

It's just embarrassing.

Yan Junchu couldn't help but curl up his mouth when he saw Su Xinyi's hands and feet. Well, he knew now that Su Xinyi didn't look tall and powerful, but he was indeed very powerful.

The two of them stood against the wall looking a bit stupid. Su Xinyi tried not to look at the prince, and in her heart she only hoped that Shi Zhongqian would show up soon.

Maybe good luck came after bad luck. The footsteps Su Xinyi heard before didn't know when they sounded again. He took his time and quickly arrived at Shiting.

Su Xinyi listened carefully to the movement above, and heard the two people in front of him asking: "Master Shi?"

Sure enough, Shi Zhongqian's voice rang out, "It's me, where's Ma Rude?"

"Young Master Shi is really very impressive, let us wait. Now you are not the heir apparent of the Duke's mansion, so why are you showing off so elegantly?"

These words were a bit harsh, but Su Xinyi didn't hear Shi Zhongqian's anger. He only heard his calm voice, "Don't talk nonsense. No matter who I am, I am still better than you. If you want to make money, lead the way quickly." "

"Okay, let's go now. The uncle is the one who paid the money, and we brothers can't afford to offend him." The other one said angrily, but he didn't waste any more nonsense and walked away.

Su Xinyi chased after him without thinking. After walking two steps, she remembered that there was still His Highness the Crown Prince. She looked back and saw that His Highness the Crown Prince had also followed. She whispered: "Your Highness, I will just go over and follow you. Where is Mr. Yang? Ask him to catch the thief."

Yan Junchu stared at Su Xinyi under the moonlight. The concern in her eyes was very natural, as if she always cared about his safety. This feeling came again, just like when she was in the hunting ground or the polo field, whenever there was danger, In this place, Su Xinyi seemed to naturally put his safety first.

"Yang Jin is setting up an ambush, let's just follow him." Yan Junchu said with a smile.

Su Xinyi thought about it. His Royal Highness appeared here, and Yang Jin must be around. She nodded, "Then let's catch up."

The three people in front of them didn't walk very fast, and if they didn't, they would look back, so Su Xinyi didn't follow closely, for fear of alerting the enemy.

Once the distance was widened, there was no need to be so cautious when speaking. Su Xinyi couldn't help but ask: "Why is Your Highness over there in the pavilion?"

Yan Junchu was silent for a moment and then said: "Yang Jin thought I was in the way and asked me to go to the pavilion to enjoy the cool air. But you arrived just as I arrived. I heard someone coming and was afraid of being discovered, so I hid without seeing who it was. Get up."

Okay, there’s no need to say anything else.

Su Xinyi's mouth twitched, what kind of luck is this.

The two of them chatted and followed the three of them into the courtyard where the pilgrims lived. They saw them pushing open a door at the corner and walking in.

Su Xinyi observed the surrounding terrain and wondered if he would be discovered if he climbed up to the roof and eavesdropped.

Remembering the night cat she met on the road, Su Xinyi turned around and ran back.

Yan Junchu looked at her figure as fast as the wind and waited silently. Soon he saw her coming back with a cat in her arms. Then he watched her walk against the wall, reached out and touched the cat's head twice, and then Throwing his hands upward, the night cat turned over in mid-air and landed on the tiles of the roof, making a slight sound.

Su Xinyi listened carefully, and sure enough, there was a slight movement on the roof. It seemed that someone was really guarding him. He could not rush to the roof, so he had to retreat quietly.

Yan Junchu saw that she was very skillful in throwing the cat. When she came back, he asked, "How did you come up with this method?"

Su Xinyi said: "The wild cat's movements are light, cautious by nature and fast in escaping. Using it to explore the path will not hurt it. It would not be possible if it were a puppy, and it would not be able to bite people on the roof."

Yan Junchu looked at her with her eyes still fixed on the house and trying to figure out a solution. She always had a tenacity in her body and would not give up until she achieved her goal.

"There is a small passage behind the house. It can accommodate a person walking sideways. Let's go and have a look?" Yan Junchu looked at her and said.

Su Xinyi's eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, he could turn around and nodded immediately, "Go."

She really wanted to know what Shi Zhongqian was doing here. She always felt that it was not simple. Could it be that he came here for the eldest sister and his daughter?
