female catcher

Chapter 166 Long time no see
Xia Chu and Jiang Xiyuan ate two simple dishes at the small restaurant opposite the government office. Xia Chu told Jiang Xiyuan what Mange had told her, and said that this matter did not sound very valuable.

What Guan Wugong did was nothing more than lust, not to mention killing for love, even if he really held a grudge, if he wanted to take revenge, it would be reasonable to take revenge on Tang Baoxin.

"At present, apart from Lan Suqiu, Yue Xiaohong's death has no definite benefits to anyone." Xia Chu picked up the rice with chopsticks, chewed it quickly, and asked Jiang Xiyuan in a low voice, "Tell me, what about her?" Will death have something to do with the palace? For example, who doesn't want her to enter the palace? It will ruin someone's business if she enters the palace. "

Jiang Xiyuan laughed and said: "It's just an actor, what can it accomplish, and what can it ruin?"

Xia Chu blinked, still with a secretive look on her face, "Could Yue Xiaohong be some kind of heroine with special skills? Conspiring with someone to..."

"Chu Xia." Jiang Xiyuan stopped her, "Don't talk nonsense."

"Oh." Xia Chu wrinkled his nose resentfully, and muttered, "It's just talking casually, so I shouldn't be so nervous..."

"As for." Jiang Xiyuan's expression was a little serious, "It's fine if I'm the one sitting in front of you at the moment, if someone else has malicious intentions, if this word spreads, it will be a disaster for the German class, and even you can't escape it .”

"Aren't jokes allowed?"

Jiang Xiyuan put down his chopsticks, and said in a slow tone: "Today, the emperor is not enthroned as the crown prince. The scholar class still has the voice of restoring the orthodoxy. In addition, the case of Li Erping's injustice was used to attack some old officials. Power. There are people who are waiting to catch the emperor's mistakes and make a big fuss, and there are also people who want to speculate in the official career by supporting the emperor, and they will add fuel to the wind and tricks, so as to publicize their loyalty."

Xia Chu didn't understand the affairs of the court, but she could understand the truth, but she didn't take it seriously, "Well, I'm just joking with you, my lord. I'm a little person, even if I want to talk, who will listen."

Jiang Xiyuan shook his head, "Don't you take yourself seriously. At the beginning of Xia, although you have no rank, you are the head catcher of the imperial capital Xijing, and there are many people staring at this position. Do you think your predecessor Zhao catcher was simple? That was also in the past. The cousin of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. What's more, you are close to me."

Xia Chu subconsciously leaned back, looked at Jiang Xiyuan carefully, and saw that he didn't seem to be lying to himself, so he couldn't help taking a breath, "It's so scary. I don't know so much, I just want to be an arrester." Just investigate the case."

"I know." Jiang Xiyuan chuckled, "But don't be afraid, now that I'm in Jing Zhaoyin's position, you can investigate your case with peace of mind."

Xia Chu was startled, "Will your lord stop being Jing Zhaoyin one day?"

"I don't know." Jiang Xiyuan picked up his chopsticks again, picked up a pinch of mushrooms and put them on Xia Chu's plate, "But I will definitely not sit in Jing Zhaoyin's position for the rest of my life. As for when I will be transferred, I will transfer to Where, it depends on what the emperor wants."

Hearing what Jiang Xiyuan said, Xia Chu suddenly felt strange in his heart, imagining what he would be like when he was not in the government office one day, and his heart was not at ease.

"Eat." Jiang Xiyuan smiled at her, "Don't worry, even if you're not in the government office, I won't ignore you."

Having said that, Xia Chu's heart was still a little heavy.Without Jiang Xiyuan in the government office, would the way she promoted and insisted on be recognized?Can anyone support it?Can she still do it so smoothly and happily?The most important thing is, will she still dare to stay in the government office?
"Chu Xia, are you going to be a headhunter for the rest of your life?" Jiang Xiyuan asked suddenly.

Xia Chu raised his eyes to look at him, then looked down at the bowl in front of him again, losing his appetite.She shook her head after a while, "I don't know either..."

It was already dark after coming out of the restaurant, Jiang Xiyuan sent Xia Chu back to Anfeng Fang, stopped at the alley, Xia Chu jumped out of the car, walked a few steps, ran back, opened the curtain of the car, poked his head in, and said in a low voice: "My lord, I will remember. I won't talk nonsense in the future, and I won't cause trouble for you, my lord."

Jiang Xiyuan looked at her and smiled, "It doesn't matter. Everything is up to me, just be yourself."

Xia Chu waved to him, put down the curtain of the car and ran into the alley.Jiang Xiyuan watched her disappear, and asked the coachman to turn his horse around and go to the General's Mansion.Na Zhengli is coming soon, he is busy at home, so it is not easy for him to stay outside all the time.What's more, Nazheng will get married soon, and it will not be so easy for Yongwei to see her again after she enters the palace.

Xia Chu unlocked the door and entered the courtyard. Before she could go back to the house, someone knocked on the courtyard door.She thought it was Jiang Xiyuan who was looking for her again because of something, and opened the door, she was stunned before she could say 'Master'.

The young man in the moon-white gown stood quietly outside the door, as if a fairy from the sky had stepped on the dew and knocked on her door inadvertently.He stared at her, his eyes were soft like a lake reflecting a crescent moon.

Here he is.

Xia Chu thought about it for a long time, and looked forward to it for a long time. When she thought that there would be no chance to see him again, he appeared in front of her unexpectedly, which made her feel like she was dreaming.After being stunned for a long while, she murmured to Mr. Huang.

Su Zhen originally thought about the opening line, but when the door was opened and Xia Chu really stood in front of him, he felt as if his heart was being pinched tightly, sore and painful, and he forgot everything.

It took a while for Xia Chu to come back to her senses, but it was a bit difficult to force a smile, because she wanted to cry even more now.It may be that I feel happy, it may be that I feel wronged, or it may be that the emotions that have been suppressed in my heart can finally be released.

She let the door open and lowered her head slightly, "Long time no see, come in and sit, young master."

Su Zhen nodded and walked in. When he walked past her, he wanted to say something, but in the end he just said sorry, "There are... a lot of things at home."

"It's okay." Xia Chu closed the courtyard door with his back facing him, and took a few deep breaths, "I know, you don't have to be sorry, Young Master."

Xia Chu asked Su Zhen to sit down at the stone table in the yard, and hid in the kitchen under the pretext of boiling water to make tea.The straw paper was burned and firewood was added, and the smoke choked her to tears.

The copper pot stand was waiting for the water to boil on the stove, but Xia Chu didn't go out, she stared at the slightest flames emerging from the pot in the dark kitchen, thinking about everything she knew and didn't know about Su Zhen , emotionally chaotic.

Everything in the small courtyard remains the same, the grape leaves on the racks are wider and wider, and fresh shoots grow, shaking gently comfortably.Su Zhen raised his head and looked, the sky between Ye Jian was as deep blue as that day, without stars and moonlight, Ye Ye, who had been staring at it before, could not be found now.

In fact, it was less than one month, probably because he recalled it too many times in his heart, which invisibly prolongs the miss, and the reunion made him feel like a world apart.

Xia Chu brought the tea out and put it on the stone table, his emotions had calmed down a lot, and he could smile at Su Zhen, "The tea is still the same tea, young master, just drink it."

Su Zhen picked it up, put it to his mouth and blew gently, "How are you these days?"

"As usual, go to the yamen to work and investigate the case." Xia Chu took a sip of tea, his mouth hurt from burning, and then put it down again, "Oh, have you heard, my lord? Yue Xiaohong died. Let's listen together It's a pity to pass her play."

"I heard." Su Zhen nodded casually, looked at Xia Chu, thinking about how to say what he wanted to say.

"I remember that Xiao Liang is a fan of Boss Yue's drama, isn't he sad?"

"He never told me."

"I saw him once in front of Tai Guang Building, is it him?" Xia Chu raised his eyes and turned his head away again.

Su Zhen was startled, and suddenly felt some bad feelings in his heart.He has a lot of things to do in court, and his occasional leisure is also occupied by melancholy.He just wanted to see Xia Chu again and bid farewell to her as Huang Zhen. He didn't intend to deal with Xia Chu. How could he be so thoughtful? I want to invite a church meeting, so I sent Xiaoliang to ask about it."

"For the wedding?"

"That's it."

Xia Chu smiled slightly, "Young Master hasn't come for so long, I thought you weren't in Xijing. After seeing Xiao Liang by chance, I realized that Young Master is getting married, so how could you not be here? I guess it's because I'm too busy to get away. "

Su Zhen felt a little relieved, and breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm sorry, I was supposed to come after you came back from an errand, but there were too many things to do, so I was delayed."

"It's okay, the young master is here today." Xia Chu lowered his head, "I don't know when the young master will get married? I want to send a congratulatory gift. I can't afford anything expensive, but I also want to express my heart. At least a friend I hope you won't dislike him."

When Su Zhen heard this, his heart skipped a beat, looking at Xia Chu, he didn't know how to answer.

Xia Chu waited for a while before Su Zhen could speak, so he secretly smiled wryly, and then raised his head, "It's fine if it's inconvenient. It's fine if you can spare time to come to me right now, my lord."

"Xia Chu." Su Zhen didn't dare to let Xia Chu ask any more questions, put his hand under the table and lightly clenched his fist, took a breath, and said a little anxiously: "I..., I'm here to say goodbye to you of."

Xia Chu stared at Su Zhen, not surprised, but feeling sour in his heart.After a long time, she was able to mobilize her five sense organs, pull out a smiley expression, leaned her body back, and said almost silently: "Really?"

Su Zhen was sad in his heart, he didn't dare to look at her, but he was reluctant not to look at her, and he hardly knew how to say the following words.After listening to him quietly, Xia Chu smiled slightly, "Do you want to go to Xijiang to do business? Xijiang is very far away. What kind of business does your son's family do?"

"a lot of……"

"My lord." Xia Chu suddenly didn't want to hear any more, and interrupted Su Zhen, "My lord and I met by chance, and I feel that although you are wealthy, you are rarely sincere. You help me investigate the case, give me what I need, birthday The festival of gifts moved me even more. I treat you as a friend, relative and friend, and I don’t want to doubt your heart in treating me. But what is your secret, why do you still lie to me when you come to say goodbye to me? ?”
