Chapter 567 Trial

Hu Qiao was also stunned for a moment, then exclaimed: "Chang'an! How come this girl has the same name as Miss Chang'an who is far away in Jinling?"

Cui Yu thought of something and couldn't help but cheer up: "Maybe, there are more than just the same names."

Still the same person!

"Hu Qiao, go meet that maid." he said.

"Don't worry, Master Qi!" Hu Qiao understood why Cui Yu wanted him to go.

Hu Yan looked puzzled.

To be honest, their Seventh Master didn't say anything. After all, there was no reason for a master to explain to his subordinates. But Hu Qiao, this disloyal man, didn't even want to explain to him first!
At least satisfy his curiosity.

Chang'an, who was unaware that he was being targeted by Hu Qiao, was currently reporting the situation of Meng Renping in Meng Shisan's bedroom.

"As soon as I entered the palace, I followed the direction described by the young lady and headed straight for the East Palace. After I found the East Palace, I entered and observed it for a while, and then I learned that the eldest son was placed in the right side palace - Taiyong Palace by His Highness." Chang'an started from the beginning, "The eldest son was sleeping soundly on the couch in Taiyong Palace. I took his pulse and he was indeed sleeping soundly. But in addition to sleeping, there was a black air in his body near his heart meridian, which was trying to rush into his heart. Once the black air succeeds in its attack, the eldest son will definitely die."

"Black air?" Meng Shisan asked Chang'an, "Is it poison?"

Chang An was not sure: "It looks like poison, but not completely."

"Do you have any way to expel the black energy from Big Brother's body?" Since Lian Chang'an was not sure, Meng Shisan no longer cared whether it was poison or not, and asked directly whether the black energy could be expelled.

"You can try." But Chang'an was not completely sure, "But I have tried it before. If the expulsion fails, I am afraid that the black energy will run rampant in the eldest son's body and directly rush into his heart."

This will only backfire.

She became the one who took the eldest son's life.

Meng Shisan fell silent after hearing this.

After waiting for a while, Changan asked, "Miss, what do you think? Do you want to try or not?"

"We must try." Meng Shisan was not thinking about whether to try or not. "I am thinking about how to try, where to try, and how to try, so as to protect Big Brother's life to the greatest extent possible."

Changan understood: "Then right now..."

Meng Shisan waved his hand: "You go and rest first, I also need to lie down for a while, we can discuss it again after dawn."

According to Chang'an, her eldest cousin's life would not be in danger for the time being, so they could wait and wait for her to think it over carefully before making a conclusion.

Chang'an came out of Meng Shisan's bedroom and returned to his own room to sleep. Then the lights in the room where he enjoyed the spring were turned off.

Chang'an realized this in the darkness, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise a little. He thought to himself that his master's housekeeper was really as good as his master said.

She was just as dedicated and loyal as she was when she was guarding her master's old residence in Jinling.

She couldn't help but look up to people of the same kind.

The next day, Hu Qiao received the steamed buns and soy milk sent by Hu Yan early in the morning and ate them happily.

Hu Yan took the opportunity to ask him, "Tell me about it?"

"Nothing." Hu Qiao took a big bite of the fresh meat bun, and half of it was gone in an instant. "Do you still remember that I once told you that Master Qi and I went to Jinling to look for Miss Thirteen's old residence some time ago?"

"I remember." This was a big deal, so Hu Yan couldn't have forgotten it. Hu Qiao stuffed the remaining half of the bun into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it, and drank three mouthfuls of soy milk before explaining to Hu Yan: "There was a servant in Miss Thirteen's old house, who was there to guard the house for Miss Thirteen. That servant was Miss Chang'an."

"Chang'an?" Hu Yan had been either out on business or following Nie Bin on secret visits recently. He seemed to have heard Hu Qiao mention a girl named Chang'an, but he didn't pay much attention to it and forgot about it. Unexpectedly, he left a deep impression on her here. "Seventh Master, do you think that the girl Chang'an who is guarding the old residence of Miss Thirteen is the maid Chang'an who is now with Miss Meng?"

"I think so too." Hu Qiao nodded and asked, "What do you think?"

Hu Yan said honestly, "I think if that's true, then Miss Meng's position in Miss Thirteen's heart is definitely much higher than that of our Seventh Master."

"Shh!" Hu Qiao nervously told Hu Yan to be quiet, "It's fine as long as we understand this in our hearts. There's no need to say it out loud!"

Hu Yan didn't care: "Seventh Master is not here."

Hu Qiao reminded in a low voice: "Then there is also Chief Nie!"

Hu Yan suddenly remembered that he followed Nie Bin to investigate secretly, and his face turned pale again: "Chief Nie will not be around here right now."

"It's better to be safe than sorry." Hu Qiao thought it was better to be cautious. "If what you said gets to the ears of Master Qi, even if Shopkeeper Jin goes to Master Qi to plead for mercy, it will probably be useless."

Jin Baixi has some face in front of Cui Yu, and it has always been like this.

Therefore, if they accidentally made a mistake, they would always ask Jin Baixi to help them plead with Cui Yu.

Out of ten times, eight out of ten will succeed.

So in their eyes, Jin Baixi was like a kind-hearted living Bodhisattva.

As for why Jin Baixi could have some face in front of Cui Yu, we have to mention Miss Thirteen who is in Cui Yu's heart. It is because Jin Baixi was also friends with Miss Thirteen and was one of the friends recognized by Miss Thirteen.

Closer to home.

Hu Yan had other tasks to do. After delivering breakfast to Hu Qiao, he was about to leave. Before leaving, he couldn't help but give one more reminder: "I followed Chang'an last night, from the time he left the palace gate to the time he entered the Meng Mansion. I lost him three or four times in the middle... If you really wait for Chang'an to come out, you have to concentrate and don't be careless."

Otherwise, I might not even be able to catch up with the maid's shadow.

Hu Qiao had seen Chang'an before, but that was in Jinling, and he had never seen Chang'an display such strange skills. Now, hearing Hu Yan's repeated warnings, he took them to heart, and he couldn't help wanting to see Chang'an as soon as possible.

"Got it." He waved his hand to let Hu Yan go quickly, "Don't forget, my Qinggong is better than yours."

Just because Hu Yan lost track of Chang'an three or four times, it doesn't mean he will lose track of him as well.

However, Hu Yan was able to swallow his pride and tell him the truth, which showed that Chang An's skills were truly superb.

Not long after Hu Yan left, someone came out of the Meng Mansion.

It was not Chang'an, but Meng Meijing and her servant Jixiang.

Hu Qiao curled his lips and said, "It was a waste of time."

But soon, he saw Meng Shisan and Baozhu again: "Huh?"

Too bad there's no fifth person.

If Chang'an is not among the people who came out, he cannot confirm it, and he cannot complete the task assigned by the Seventh Master. He has to continue to wait.

"Sister, are we really not taking the bus?" Meng Meijing asked once before coming out, and wanted to ask again after she walked out the door.
