Chapter 275

The waiter of the pharmacy shop heard Xia Zhu's question, nodded in confusion, and replied, "I know, the sister in the dark hall on the fireworks street, knows our shopkeeper."

Xia Zhu was surprised because she knew Cui Suxin's identity and said in confusion: "Dangtangzi? How could she be the sister in Datangzi? It's impossible." Although the clothes Cui Suxin had worn before looked suspicious, Xia Zhu still couldn't believe it.

Seeing that she didn't believe it, the guy said in detail: "Why isn't it? She's just. She has a mother. I heard that she used to be an outdoor room of a nobleman. Later, she got that disease and was swept out of the house. It's probably not long. She used to take some medicine, but now she only relies on Ma Teng to relieve the pain."

After hearing this, Xia Zhu felt a lot of touch and whispered to the clerk: "Don't tell me what's going on today, and even your shopkeeper is not allowed to say it."

The guy got the money, so he naturally wouldn't talk too much, not to mention that he didn't say anything else, just told the truth.

Xia Zhu walked to Xue Chen, bent down, and told Xue Chen softly what he asked about it. Xue Chen was also shocked. How could Cui Suxin fall to this point? When Mrs. Cui left the Duke of Wei's Mansion, it was said that she had a familiar friend to take care of her and had a way of retreat. Is that way the retreat was to be the outdoor room for a noble man?

"Madam, I think this matter is a bit unreliable. How could Mrs. Cui and Miss Cui fall to this level? If there is really a problem, based on Mrs. Cui's temperament, wouldn't she go to the Duke's Mansion to ask for help from the Duke's Mansion?"

Mrs. Cui lived in the mansion for a while, so the maids around Xue Chen also knew what Mrs. Cui thought about Duke Lou Zhan, so she said such words at this time.

Xue Chen did not say anything, but thought for a while, and then said something to Xia Zhu. Xia Zhu nodded and turned around to ask the guy. After the two of them whispered, Xia Zhu came back and forth to Xue Chen:

"I asked, it's the kind of disease I got. It's said that I've gotten sores on my body. I'm so surprised I dare to go to the master."

Xue Chen shook his head, sighed, and then stood up from the guest seat. In the middle, Li Mengying and the shopkeeper came out, and seemed to have ordered two kinds of medicinal herbs. Seeing that Xue Chen was still there, Li Mengying came over and walked out of the medicine shop with her.

Along the way, Xue Chen didn't say much because of Cui Suxin and his daughter. Li Mengying thought she was tired of shopping, so she didn't say much. After returning to the mansion, Xue Chen went back to Canglanyuan. After thinking about it in the yard, he ordered people to call Yan Luodong. However, Gu Chao came here. Gu Chao has now become Yan Luodong's disciple and can do several things for Xue Chen alone.

Xue Chen looked at him unexpectedly and asked, "Where is your master?"

Gu Chao smiled and said, "Master has a guest, I'm here to come. I'll just tell me what my wife has to give me."

"There is a guest? Who is it? Liao Sign?"

In Xue Chen's impression, the person who would visit Yan Luodong seemed to have Liao sign, so there was no one else. Unexpectedly, she guessed wrong this time. Gu Chao shook his head and said, "Madam, I guessed wrong this time. It's a girl, not Liao Qianhu."

After Tang Feisheng became a hundred households, Liao Qian was also promoted to the Qianhu of the Northern Fushi.

Xue Chen was even more surprised. It was not that Liao Xuan was not talking about it, but that she was still a woman who came to Yan Luodong... However, she never interfered with Yan Luodong's affairs, and still remembered Cui Suxin and his daughter in her heart, so she ordered Gu Chao to check the recent situation of the Cui family's mother and daughter.

After Lou Qingyun came back in the evening, it was rare not to go back to Canglanyuan first. Instead, he took a few bites of snacks and took Lou Zhan to the study. It was thought that he had encountered difficult human relationships and affairs. If he only discussed the case, Lou Qingyun would not have any confusion. But once he was talking about human relationships, he was a little confused. But he was also a smart person. During this period, under Xue Chen's "guidance", he learned a method - that is, to find his father when he encountered problems!

After Lou Zhan has been in the court for so many years, his prestige and connections are naturally much higher than Lou Qingyun. Some things are really overwhelmed and cannot be solved, so I simply handed them over to Lou Zhan.

It seems that tonight, the father and son didn't leave the study until midnight. Xue Chen ordered people to go to the kitchen to prepare midnight snacks, just waiting for the father and son to discuss and come out to eat.

After having supper with the eldest princess, Xue Chen took the two young men back to Canglanyuan. After playing with them for more than an hour, the child was about to go to bed. She was about to go back to her room when Lou Qingyun appeared.

Seeing his handsome face full of smiles, Xue Chen knew that he had accomplished. He went forward and said, "I asked the kitchen to prepare a midnight snack. Wouldn't you go have a drink with your father?"

Lou Qingyun hugged her into the house and said, "Mother has prepared other wine and food. They eat theirs and we eat ours."

The maids started to distribute vegetables, and Xue Chen went to the inner room to change clothes for Lou Qingyun, and asked Lou Qingyun: "Has the matter been resolved?" She didn't need to say what was going on, just ask Lou Qingyun this way to know what was.

Lou Qingyun smiled and said, "Your method is really useful. Let my father have a headache now. Those people have asked me difficult problems all day long. Do you really think there is no one in my Lou family?"

Seeing him like this, Xue Chen gave him a look. The maids put the dishes on. The two of them sat down. After Xue Chen had eaten, he accompanied him and helped him pour wine and pick up food. After eating two bites, Lou Qingyun said to her:

"Oh by the way, don't go to the near White Horse Temple these days, it will take a while for burning incense."

Xue Chen picked up a piece of meat for him and asked, "Hmm? Why? It's about Sister Rou'er's marriage soon. You have to go to the temple anyway. What's the saying that you don't let him go."

Lou Qingyun put down her chopsticks and said seriously: "She got married in June next year. It's early. White Horse Temple has not been peaceful recently. Some days ago, many people went to Jingzhao Yin to report the case, saying that she had lost a young girl at home. Several incidents a month have occurred. Jingzhao and Jinyiwei have been dispatched. Although they have not found the girls who have always been there today, they have discovered a common point. Before these people disappeared, they have all been to Baima Temple. Therefore, White Horse Temple has become the key suspect surveillance target. Don't go recently."

Xue Chen was shocked by this incident and suddenly remembered the previous life. There was indeed such a large-scale girl case. However, the place found in the end was not White Horse Temple, but Qianye Temple, which was only one stick of incense from White Horse Temple. Qianye Temple looked like a nunnery on the surface, but in fact it was a huge brothel organization, similar to the dark scenes among the people.

"In addition to White Horse Temple, there are also nearby temples, all the temples are suspected. There are 16 small temples and temples around White Horse Temple. We can only check them one by one slowly. Because the number is huge, you should not go there during this period, do you know?"

Originally, Xue Chen didn't know how to remind Lou Qingyun Qianye Temple. Now that he has locked the scope, I believe she can find the one on Qianye Temple without saying anything, so she nodded and replied: "Okay, I'll tell everyone in the mansion tomorrow that we won't go to the temple to burn incense these days."

Looking back on the previous life, the envoy behind the Qianye Temple incident found that the court did not say who the envoy behind the scenes was, and only said that the Qianye Temple was sealed. I guess the mastermind behind the scenes must have some background, so that the national law could not be clearly explained to the people. In the previous life, it was said that many girls who always had the bodies of the girls were carried out from the Qianye Temple. The parents of the girls cried and their children were unable to come back. In the end, Jingzhao came forward to pay the pension silver, and the matter was slowly calmed down. However, such a big case could really be regarded as the largest case at that time, and people didn't talk about it after dinner.

In this life, because Lou Qingyun is here, these things were discovered early. Since he has set his target, he believes that in the past two days, he can definitely find out the truth. Xue Chen sincerely hopes that he can die fewer lives.

After going to bed at night, before he could sleep, there was a knock on the door outside. Xue Chen opened his eyes and pushed Lou Qingyun. He got up and opened the tent. Seeing the fire coming from outside, Xia Zhu, who walked out of the blue yarn cabinet, held the candlelight and spoke:

"Criminal, your chief is here outside the courtyard and asks for an emergency."

"I know, let him wait." After Lou Qingyun answered, he lifted the quilt and got out of bed. While putting on his shoes, he said to Xue Chen: "I guess I found the thief's nest. I'll go and have a look. You can sleep with peace of mind. I've finished my work these days. I'll take you and your child to Chengde for a trip."

Xue Chen wanted to get up to put on his clothes, but saw Lou Qingyun wave his hand and said, "I'll do it myself, don't come down."

Xue Chen was not polite to him, and sat on the bed and said, "Don't worry about us, go and handle the matter well. Those missing girls must look for them. They are all raised by their parents in life, so don't leave anyone behind."

Lou Qingyun put on her clothes and turned around to see Xue Chen's serious face. He couldn't help but curl his lips and smiled: "Yes, madam. I will check it carefully and search it carefully, and I will definitely not leave anyone behind!"

Xue Chen was amused by him, Lou Qingyun bent down and pecked her lips, then patted the back of her head, and said, "Be good at home, wait for me to come back to take your mother and four of you to play."

This tone of lying to the child made Xue Chen feel speechless. He wanted to reach out to pinch his cheek, but he stepped back first. After the couple had a moment of eye contact, Lou Qingyun turned around and went to the door. Xue Chen saw him open the door and take the candlelight from Xia Zhu's hand through the screen and walked into the long dark night.

Xia Zhu came in wearing clothes and settled Xue Chen, and then she wanted to get the bedding. She said, "It's windy outside. I guess the wind is quite strong. I'll sleep with my wife tonight."

After closing the door, the world became quiet, and the wind outside the window became louder. After hearing this for a while, Xue Chen also put on his clothes and got out of bed. Xia Zhu hurriedly took her outer shirt and put it on her shoulders. Xue Chen walked to the west window and opened a gap as big as a fist. He looked at the leaves on the branches outside that were trembling by the wind. It seemed that it was a thunderstorm, and I didn't know if Lou Qingyun was wearing a straw raincoat...
