Chapter 188 Returning to the South (1)

After discussing with Fu Guan, Lou Xiyue and Fu Guan confirmed that they would go back to Huaijiang Mansion and visit the two old people of Ban's family when they went to Jiangnan for disaster relief.But just as she nodded, she suddenly hesitated again.

Lou Xiyue considered for a moment, and then said: "If I want to go back to Ban's house, I need to get in touch with Xiyu—it's strange, since we parted ways and I arrived in the capital, it's hard to hear from her, and I don't know Where is she now and what's going on."

Although she had already guessed in her heart that the "Golden Smoke Heroes" that have been widely rumored in the world these days are Ban Xiyu and Wen Jisheng, but after all, the mountain is high and the water is far away, and she cannot confirm Ban Xiyu's identity just based on outside rumors. current situation.

Lou Xiyue lowered her head and thought about how to communicate with Ban Xiyu through thousands of miles.At this time, Fu Guan suddenly murmured and said:
"Speaking of letters..." he said: "Some time ago, Xuan Yi intercepted a carrier pigeon outside the residence. There was a note tied to the gray pigeon's foot, I don't know who it was for."

While talking, Fu Guan took out a small piece of paper that was pressed on the bottom of the book by the side of the table, and brought it to Lou Xiyue: "Could it be that Ban Xiyu sent you the news?"

Lou Xiyue: "..."

She looked at the extremely old piece of paper without saying a word, and then quickly opened the note - there was Ban Xiyu's handwriting on it.

Lou Xiyue: "..." She stared at Fu Guan in disbelief: "You intercepted my letter?! You knew it early on? Since you knew it, why didn't you tell me earlier?!"

Fu Guan helped his forehead: "I didn't expect it to be yours." He said: "The carrier pigeon came strangely, I..."

He was worried that someone in Prince Xuanping's mansion had secretly communicated with the outside world, and he was even more worried that the court's political enemies had planted spies in his mansion, so he kept it secret.

Not only that, but he also spent a lot of time ordering people to track down the spy secretly.But after several days, there was no gain.

It's not that he didn't suspect that maybe this letter was addressed to Lou Xiyue.But Fu Guan observed her secretly and saw that she did not behave abnormally, so he thought that the master of this letter was someone else.

Unexpectedly, this letter was actually addressed to Lou Xiyue.

Fu Guan sighed helplessly: "It's still a misunderstanding. Well, if that's the case, let's return it to the original owner."

Lou Xiyue: "..." She endured and endured, but she didn't say the curse words.At the end, she let out a foul breath, then gave Fu Guan a hard look, and said:

"Next time if there is another letter, please trouble the prince to 'hand, leave, stay, love', and send it to me intact!"

Her tone sounded like she was angry, Fu Guan couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and looked up at her.He smiled: "Don't worry, sure."

Lou Xiyue: "..." Seeing this handsome face, she felt sullen in her chest. She didn't want to talk nonsense with Fu Guan, so she turned around and left with the letter paper.

But before she walked out of the study, she turned around and turned back.

Fu Guan said in a good voice, "What's wrong?"

Lou Xiyue was expressionless: "Where's the carrier pigeon?"

Fu Guan: "He's still alive. But it might be a few days later. Xuan Yi also said a few days ago that he wants to eat roasted pigeons."

Lou Xiyue: "...he eats farts! Hurry up and return the pigeons to me. Also, take care of your subordinates. If you really hurt my pigeons, you will use your subordinates to pay for it!"

After speaking, she will leave.

But Fu Guan said again: "Wait—"

Lou Xiyue: "..." She turned her head impatiently, her face was so cold that it seemed to freeze: "What are you going to do again?"

At this time, Fu Guan pushed the long box placed aside.He opened the wooden box and said with a smile, "I almost forgot—this is your saber, don't forget to take it with you."

Earlier, when Lou Xiyue was held hostage by the head of the family to Linlang Zhenqi, her sword was taken from her. After Dali Temple broke into Linlang Zhenqi, the pair of long and short swords were confiscated by the government and kept in Dali Temple.

"Right now, the 'Linlang Precious' case is almost done. I ordered Xuan Miao to take back your saber and return it to you. The swordsman's portable sword should be kept properly, so don't lose it next time."

Lou Xiyue took a few steps forward and retracted the two swords: "Of course I know, thank you for this." She said thank you, but her demeanor was not very polite.

After saying this, she opened the door and left without looking back.

Fu Guan looked at the back of her lingering anger, and couldn't help but smiled again: "Such a big temper..."

*
Lou Xiyue walked all the way back to the courtyard, her heart that wanted to tear Fu Guan apart finally calmed down.Before entering the door, she took a long breath and strode into the room.

She hung the two swords back on the wall, then sat down and drank a sip of tea before carefully watching Ban Xiyu's message from the flying pigeon.

The words Ban Xiyu left on the letter were short, and in just a few words, she told the places she passed, except for a few treacherous men, and at the end he greeted her:
"I'm safe and sound, I don't know how you are doing? Is there any change in the palace?"

Just looking at the last sentence, it is indeed a bit like a spies passing it on from inside to outside, but Lou Xiyue still feels sullen in her chest - just because of Fu Guan's suspicion, the letter was detained for many days before it returned to her.

Ban Xiyu has not received a reply for a long time, isn't he impatient?
"It's really..." Lou Xiyue didn't know what to say.

At this time, Qingshuang heard the movement and came over: "Girl, why are you so angry?" She asked: "But what happened? Could it be the Holy Majesty..."

Lou Xiyue put away the letter, shook her head and said: "It's not a big deal—by the way, Qingshuang, I'll trouble you to pack your luggage in these two days, and in three days we will go south with the prince to Nanhuai Mansion for disaster relief."

"Disaster relief?" Qingshuang asked in surprise: "Isn't the prince still dealing with the corruption case? Why did the Holy One send the villain to the prince to provide disaster relief? That's all, how come the girl has to go with her?"

Lou Xiyue: "This matter has a long story... In short, it is precisely because of this corruption case that the prince has offended too many courtiers. The emperor wants us to go out to avoid the limelight. From then on, this case will not be under the prince's control." gone."

Qingshuang: "This... well, I see, I'll make arrangements in a while." She paused again, then looked at Lou Xiyue hesitantly, and said, "Ma'am, please forgive me for my innocence." Li, I have something I want to ask the girl, I don't know the girl..."

Lou Xiyue raised her eyes and looked at her: "If there is anything, you can just speak up."

Qingshuang said: "Miss, you still remember that you promised a few days ago that when the corruption case is over, you will tell me a very important matter. Now that the girl is back, then what the girl said, is it true? Can……"

Hearing this, Lou Xiyue finally recalled the promise not long ago.

She lowered her head, squeezed the letter paper in her hand, then let go of her hand, and said, "It's time to tell you."

Even if you don't say it now, when you arrive at Huaijiang Mansion in a few days, when she meets Ban Xiyu, Qingshuang, as a personal servant, must know the inside story.

Qingshuang asked: "What exactly is the girl going to say?"
