Chapter 116
Xiao Muyan stared at the small black room in front of him, and couldn't help asking: "Could it be that Meng Lilun is in this small room?"

Li Fu shook his head with a smile, "Miss misunderstood, Brother Meng is not in the Xiao Mansion, he is waiting for you in the courtyard outside the Xiao Mansion, but if we want to go out from the Xiao Mansion in a fair manner, we must be wronged I can take Miss out of this mansion only after Miss changed into a servant's clothes."

Xiao Muyan asked puzzledly: "Why is it so troublesome? Why don't we just take advantage of the moonlight and climb over the wall to get out? Why do we want to go out through this back door?"

Li Fu bowed his head with a subtle smile and said: "Miss is really straightforward, but we have to be careful in doing things now, if we go out from above this wall, it will cause those who are secretly observing Xiao's mansion, now is the time of panic, so We can't make any mistakes."

Xiao Muyan nodded, and said with a slight smile: "Butler Li is really thoughtful, no wonder he can gain a firm foothold in Xiao's mansion, please trouble Butler Li to help me out, I will go back quickly."

After all, Xiao Muyan stepped into the hut. In the center of the hut was a dilapidated square wooden table. The peeling paint on the tabletop was clean and not stained with a speck of dust, and her brand new and clean gray clothes were neatly folded. Put it on the table.

Xiao Muyan picked up the gray and black clothes and shook them in front of his eyes, a pair of coarse clothes and trousers were displayed in front of his eyes, the size was actually in line with Xiao Muyan's figure, I have to say that Butler Li is really a thoughtful and meticulous person.

She quickly put the clothes on her body, tied the bun on her head into that of a servant, turned around, opened the door and walked out.

Li Fu took a look at Xiao Muyan's attire, nodded slightly, smiled elegantly, and said four words in an elegant voice: "The flaws do not hide the virtues."

Xiao Muyan glanced down at the coarse cloth clothes on her body, and said puzzledly: "What does Steward Li mean by that?"

He laughed softly and said, "Pearls are pearls, even if they are wrapped in coarse cloth, they can't cover up the luster of pearls."

Xiao Muyan raised her eyebrows, and said with a slight smile: "If it's a compliment, I'll accept it. It's not easy to be praised by you, Steward Li."

Li Fu's expression was slightly taken aback, and then he smiled elegantly: "Miss, please follow me."

Before the words fell, Li Fu took a step forward to lead the way, and Xiao Muyan followed behind him in a leisurely manner.The two turned a small road and arrived at the back door of the Xiao Mansion.

Inside the back door stood two guards guarding the door. They held halberds and stood upright guarding the door. It seemed that they were not even going to let a fly in.

Xiao Muyan tightened her steps, approached Li Fu calmly, and said in a very low voice: "Butler Li, when will the back door be more guarded?"

Li Fu smiled lightly and said: "Since the incident with Fourth Miss Xiao Muyi happened last time, the master has ordered all corners of the Xiao Mansion to strengthen their vigilance, presumably to prevent the safety of the Xiao Mansion."

Xiao Muyan took a look at Li Fu from the corner of his eye. This Li Fu is really a good person. Even if he already knew each other's identities, he still has a certain degree of discretion. It seems that he always speaks only three points, always They all look like the butlers of the Xiao Mansion.

Perhaps it was also because of this that Li Fu could perfectly play the role of the housekeeper of Xiao's residence without any flaws.

The two walked up to the guards one after the other. Seeing Li Fu, one of the guards put away the halberd in his hand, cupped his hands, and said respectfully, "Butler Li, where are you going?"

Li Fu nodded with a smile on his face, and said in a gentle tone: "The weather is so hot today that I really can't sleep in the room, so I thought that there is a small tavern in the alley in the south of the city that makes really good wine. It doesn't matter, on the contrary, I really thought about it, it's inconvenient to take a little brother out to hug a few jars and come back to quench the brothers' thirst."

Hearing this, the guard immediately smiled and said: "Steward Li is really sympathetic to us brothers, he is under your care on weekdays, and he never forgets to support us brothers in any good deeds. If we need brothers in the future, You just have to speak up."

Xiao Muyan thought for a while, the original reason is that Li Fu has bought and sold a lot of people's hearts in the Xiao Mansion on weekdays. Although he is the chief steward of the Xiao Mansion, he never bullies others with power, but pays attention to sympathy in everything. , Seventy percent reasonable, and he is very generous to these subordinates on weekdays, and he will always have different countermeasures when meeting different people, so his position in Xiao's mansion can be firmly established.

A group of very powerful people gathered around Meng Lilun, and it was definitely a wise move for him to choose Li Fu to enter the Xiao Mansion, but he didn't know what kind of real face Li Fu was hiding under his rather ordinary appearance.

Li Fu said with a smile: "Brothers, why do you have to be so far away from each other, not to mention that brothers are as happy as they are, you are so far away when you say that. I will go out and buy a few jars of good wine and a few roast chickens. catty of beef to comfort the brothers."

The guard nodded hurriedly and said, "Please trouble housekeeper Li."

While talking, he hastily opened the back door to see him off, Li Fu led Xiao Muyan out of the back door with a smile on his face, and Xiao Muyan followed behind him with his head bowed.

The two of them went out the back door one after the other, and the two bright yellow lanterns hanging high above the back door illuminated the dark narrow alleyway.The two figures were cast extremely long by the flickering lights on the cold bluestone slab.

The quiet alleyway gradually became dark, two black figures walked in the alleyway one after the other, there was silence between them, only the slight sound of footsteps on the bluestone slab.

Xiao Muyan understood that since they made a big fuss in the ghost city last time, the various factions would strengthen their influence in the imperial city after they knew that they had been tricked. top priority.

Now one must be extremely careful in one's actions outside Xiao's mansion, so as not to make any mistakes and arouse anyone's suspicion.Li Fu's steps were not in a hurry, calm and powerful, he seemed to know Xiao Muyan's speed and pace, and always kept a distance of three steps from Xiao Muyan.

There is no night breeze in the dark and narrow alleyway, and the extremely hot and sultry air seems to flow endlessly. The dark blue sky is reflected above the alleyway like a narrow Milky Way, and the twinkling stars are like precious stones. Generally spread over the alley.

When the two of them were about to reach the distance of the alleyway, Li Fu seemed to slow down on purpose. His tall and handsome figure was wrapped in a black robe. Part of the mystery.
