Chapter 192 Learned the fur, was taken

After the boy's disappearance, Xiao Bi and Huan Yu no longer had any good impressions of Jin Guo.

Especially the current members of the Jin Kingdom royal family, in the eyes of the two of them, are simply a group of people who have no bottom line for profit, and are not worth interacting with at all.

Although Huan Yu found out that those who came to Tianshui County to search for the antidote were related to the Kingdom of Jin, there was no concrete evidence to prove that they were sent by the royal family of the Kingdom of Jin.

But the two of them have not forgotten that the person who poisoned the wife of City Lord Chunyu was Ji Fubing.

No matter how the Tianmu Tears in her hand came from, they were a great threat to the princes of the Jin Kingdom who were competing with her for power.

We can even boldly guess that some of them may have suffered from Ji Fubing's scheme just like the city lord's wife.

Of course, if a poison as colorless and tasteless as Tianmu Tears, and with such terrible toxicity, could be mastered by them, that would be another matter.

Even though Ji Fubing is now in the hands of City Lord Chunyu, they still have not given up their pursuit of Tianmu Tears.

The sudden appearance of the antidote made them even more excited.

Although the Jin Kingdom was far less powerful than the Wei Dynasty, and the most powerful Xiao Huan family was involved in the antidote, it still could not stop them from pursuing profits.

"Brother Huan, this matter must be investigated and brought to the bottom of the matter.

Those people can even pretend to be bandits and rob, and I'm afraid they will go further and further in the future.

If they keep thinking about us, our lives will be ruined."

Huan Yu said: "Don't worry, after learning that the wedding party was in danger, I sent people to track down the bandits.

After all, this is the land of the Wei Dynasty, and they cannot be allowed to be so presumptuous!"

Xiao Bi nodded: "If these bandits are really related to the Jin Kingdom royal family, they are probably coming for me.

As long as they can capture me, they can blackmail the Xiao Huan family, especially you."

Huan Yu wanted to laugh a little.

The ninth master of the Xiao family is famous far and wide. How stupid must the people in the Jin Kingdom royal family be to come up with such a bad idea?

To be honest, the bandits were lucky enough today. If Xiaojiu had been the first to encounter them instead of Xiaohan, the consequences could be imagined.

Xiao Bi also happened to think of this problem, but she was not thinking about the bandits, but Hua Xiaohan.

"It's a coincidence that my carriage and dowry were in front, so I should have crossed the river first.

But my father didn’t know what kind of convulsion he had, so he caught up with us when we were about to board the ship and insisted on talking to me.”

This matter really hadn't reached Huan Yu's ears, so he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Uncle Xiao actually chased him all the way from the capital to the banks of the Yongshui River?"

Xiao Bi sneered: "Isn't that right? He will never make any progress in this life.

But because of his interruption, Xiaohan blocked the trouble for me and even lost a box of goldware that Uncle Hua specially prepared for her."

"Did you lose the goldware?" Although he repeated Xiao Bi's words, Huan Yu laughed loudly.

With the Huan family's influence in this area, it was only a matter of time before they found those bandits.

But there are never too many useful clues. Naturally, the bandits took away the gold items not for fun, but for money.

They will definitely exchange their gold items for cash as soon as possible.

The most convenient place to exchange cash is either a pawn shop or a bank.

The Yuchi family's money shops were spread all over the Wei Dynasty, and they had dealings with pawnshops everywhere.

The objects Hua Hou prepares for his daughter are not only exquisite and unique, but they will also have special markings on them.

As long as those people dare to reveal the Hua family's goldware, they will never be able to escape!

As soon as he expressed his thoughts, Xiao Bi also laughed.

"It's better to do it sooner rather than later. You can go find uncle later and ask him to help us once."

Just when Huan Yu was about to agree, there was a sudden commotion in the yard next to him.

"What's going on?" Xiao Bi looked over attentively.

Hua Xiaohan also married away from Tianshui County and received the same treatment from Guanyi.

Her residence is also in a separate courtyard, separated by a wall from the small courtyard where Xiao Bi lives tonight.

Just now, Xiao Bi glanced over there specifically. Except for the two lanterns deliberately left on the corridor, all the rooms were dark, and the people inside had obviously rested.

At this moment, all the houses were lit up, and several lanterns were added to the small yard.

Huan Yu smiled bitterly: "Maybe Aji was discovered..."

Tonight he sneaked into the small courtyard to talk to Xiaojiu, and Aji actually came with him.

Xiao Bei chuckled and said: "Every nun in the palace is more powerful than the other, and the nanny Wang assigned to Xiaohan by the imperial concubine is the most disciplined.

Aji hit her hand, and even Xiaohan had to be reprimanded."

Huan Yu also smiled and said: "Aunt Wang is the most important person to follow the rules. Isn't Aunt Qi, whom the eldest sister pointed out to you, easier to talk to?"

"Tch—" Xiao Bi rolled her eyes at him: "Aji obviously followed the same example, but it's a pity that he was too honest and learned the superficial but not the essence.

You have obviously found out about Grandma Qi’s temperament and know that she is not someone who is easy to fool, so you invited me here!"

Huan Yu smiled and said nothing, stood up and looked towards the yard next door.

Xiao Bi's guess was correct. At this moment, Huan Ji was being scolded by Grandma Wang.

Of course, given his status, it was impossible for Grandma Wang to be as merciless as she was when she trained those young servants and maids.

She tried to persuade him with gentle words, but Huan Ji couldn't even lift his head.

I really regret it...

When he was eighteen years old, he received countless beatings and scoldings, but none of them were as embarrassing as today.

This Aunt Wang looks like a skinny little girl with a kind face and a kind face, but she really has a way of teaching people.

Seeing how honest he was, Grandma Wang raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

"I can understand the Third Young Master's mood. Although this is an official post and there are no outsiders to disturb you, you still have to abide by the rules.

There are only twenty days left for the wedding. When you get married to the girl, I hope that you and your young couple will live in harmony and love each other and be together all the time."

Huan Ji hurriedly said: "Mommy is right, I was too reckless today."

Grandma Wang smiled and said: "It's getting late, you'd better go back to your room to rest early, as you have to rush on your way tomorrow morning.

The old slave will take good care of the girl, so you don't have to worry about her."

"Farewell." Huan Ji bowed his hands and followed a maid carrying a lantern out of the courtyard.

When he returned to his residence, he first went to Huan Yu's room to take a look.

"Brother hasn't come back yet?" he asked Sang Pu and Fengshou.

Sang Pu smiled and said: "Not yet, where has the third master gone?"

Although Huan Ji has a straight temper, what happened tonight was too embarrassing and he was really embarrassed to share it with others.

"I just went to talk to the fifth brother of the Xiao family for a while. Since he is not here, I will go back to my room first."

He gave a few simple instructions and hurried back to the room.

"Brother Sang Pu, look at what Third Master looks like, could it be..." Fengshou came over and chuckled softly.
