Red apricots make spring

Chapter 182

Xu Xiucai saw their expressions suddenly changed, and then he was also surprised, but when he recalled what he said, he didn't think there was anything shocking, so his surprise turned into doubt, hesitantly said: "Why? Xiaosheng guessed wrong ?"

When Shen Mengyi first heard the news that Ruan Ruan was not dead, she was extremely surprised at first, but when she regained her composure and thought about it, she knew that this matter was too involved!What Lu Ce and Ruan Wen committed was the crime of deceiving the emperor!And the scholar in front of him obviously doesn't look like a good person. If he knows about it, it's hard to say whether he will use it to seek advancement. She doesn't care if Wen Rou is dead or alive, but it will hurt Lu Ce. , is what she doesn't want to see, so she just lowered her head in silence, and said for a while: "There is nothing wrong, you can continue."

These words were too perfunctory, even Xu Xiucai could hear them, but he didn't want to say it, so how could he dare to continue to ask abruptly?He just smacked his lips and said, "Xiaosheng has some clues now."

"What?" Shen Mengyi was puzzled.

"Xiaosheng just found out today that she was given to Lord Lu as a concubine by the Holy Lord, so she shouldn't appear in Yunzhou City!" Xu Xiucai shook his head triumphantly and said his deduction, "So Xiaosheng presumed that she would do that shameful thing." , is fleeing without her husband!"

"Fleeing her husband..." Shen Mengyi was in a trance, and slowly repeated Xu Xiucai's words before realizing what he was talking about.

"That's right! It's running away from her husband!" Xu Xiucai patted the table lightly and said, "She has disobeyed the Holy Order, which is a capital offense!" He was so happy!Squeezing these two handles in his hands is enough to kill Wen Rou to death, but he doesn't have the guts to hide this rebellion for her, thinking secretly, should he expose this matter?

Lue came back to her senses, and sarcastically said: "She's not stupid, why did she run away? Master Lu is such a good husband, she can't find it anywhere in the world!"

In fact, Xu Xiucai couldn't understand this question, but he saw Wenrou and Ye Yu living alone for a while, so he attributed everything to Wenrou's lustful nature, shook his head and retorted Lue: " You don't know that there is another boy named Ye in the Wen family, who has an unknown origin, right? Xiaosheng sees that they must have done something messy, and they fled privately for fear of being discovered!" Yes, that must be the reason!It seems that he has to go to the Lu residence?Maybe you can get some rewards, or become a petty official!
"You're making an unfounded guess!" Lue had met Ye Yu before, and felt that although he was good, he was still inferior to Lu Ce. If she had to choose, she would not do such a thing. stupid thing.

"Why is there no evidence? Xiaosheng saw them living together!" Xu Xiucai was afraid that Shen Mengyi would tell him nonsense, so he had to explain clearly.

Lost innocence, feigned death, private escape, adulterer...

All kinds of things that Xu Xiucai said were unimaginable, and had a shocking effect. Shen Mengyi seemed to be struck by lightning four or five times in a row, and her head was dizzy. She really couldn't digest so much information for a while. Hearing Lue and Xu Xiucai arguing about the gentle elopement there, the feeling of dizziness is even more severe.

She knew very well that Rou Wen left Lu Ce, it could not be elopement, otherwise Lu Ce would not have accompanied him in the scene of the concubine's death, but she really couldn't figure out, what is the relationship between the two of them?If they like each other, why are they separated?If you don't like it, you can't explain what happened.But this kind of doubt, she can only ponder in secret, she can't ask Lu Ce at all, and it is quite hesitant to say whether Xu Xiucai can believe what Xu Xiucai said, just listen to the current argument between him and Lue, and you will be able to Inferring many things is entirely out of his imagination.

"Girl, why don't you talk?" Xu Xiucai talked for a long time, but he didn't get any encouragement and response from Shen Mengyi, so it was a bit boring.

Shen Mengyi raised her eyes and saw that his face was full of flattering smiles, and an evil thought suddenly flashed in her heart, this guy with a big mouth can't be kept!Even if he didn't know his first and last name, he might be able to find out for sure. Later, when he came out of this restaurant, he still didn't know how to make arrangements for himself to invite him to talk privately in front of people!It's disgusting to think about it!Besides Wen Wen's fraudulent death, Lu Ce's deception, he might be able to find out...

Xu Xiucai didn't know that the beautiful woman had murderous thoughts in the blink of an eye, and happily asked for her opinion: "Miss, if Xiaosheng goes to Mr. Lu and tells him the whereabouts of his escaped concubine, will he see Xiaosheng?"

Although Shen Mengyi wanted to kill, but she had never done such a thing before, she would feel panicked, and for a while, she really didn't know how to end Xu Xiucai's big trouble, but now she suddenly heard him say that she was going to find Lu Ce, Surprised and then overjoyed, he immediately decided to let go and leave this matter to Lu Ce to deal with, so he smiled at Xu Xiucai for the first time, and said with deep meaning: "He will definitely see you."

"That's good! That's good!" Xu Xiucai was so happy that he didn't know how to be good. He could only keep rubbing his hands to relieve the excitement in his heart. He was just about to ask Shen Mengyi's name again. It would be good to try it in the future. She went to the door to propose a marriage, but she stood up and said, "Thank you, sir, for talking with me for a long time, but it's getting late now, and you still have serious business to do, so I won't delay you, so I'll take my leave first." .”

As soon as she finished speaking, she didn't give Xu Xiucai time to hold back the politeness, she walked out of the private room with Lu E, and when she went downstairs, she called the waiter over and asked him to put the account under the name of the Shen family, and then I rewarded him with a tael of silver, and told him not to reveal his identity to others.

After leaving the inn, Shen Mengyi got into the carriage, and just as Lue was about to follow, she heard her lightly order: "You stay, stare at that poor man, and I'll send someone to replace you later."

"Stare at him?" Lue asked in puzzlement, "Such a person, even if you look at him more often, it will be filthy! What are you doing staring at him?"

"Let's see if he went to the Lu's residence." Shen Mengyi looked past Lu'e and looked into the distance and said, "If he goes in, it's fine. If he inquires about something along the way and doesn't enter the Lu's residence in the end, you just follow him , look where he lives, come back and tell me after you remember it!"

Lue was still a little puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask any more, so she just nodded her head and said hello. After watching the carriage take Shen Mengyi away, she hid herself and waited for Xu Xiucai to come out of the restaurant.

Xu Xiucai is depressed!How could he have thought that Shen Mengyi would leave as soon as he said it, without even giving him a chance to say a few more words?He originally wanted to chase him out, but he was afraid that the move would be too abrupt and make the lady angry, which would not be a good thing. Besides, he didn't even eat two mouthfuls of the full banquet, so he was not willing to waste it, so he hesitated Yes, knowing that it would be too late to chase after him, he just picked up his chopsticks and started to gobble it up.

Stopped eating, stopped eating, and waited until Xu Xiucai finally stuffed all the food and wine into his stomach, without wasting a single bit, then stood up with his stomach full of satisfaction, burped loudly, and picked out the food with a toothpick. Gritting his teeth, he walked out of the private room humming a little song.

It wasn't until he went downstairs that he saw the waiter looking at him, that Xu Xiucai felt his eyelids twitch, thinking badly, whether he had paid for the banquet, if not, what kind of money should he pay for it?
Fortunately, the waiter didn't intend to ask him to pay the bill, so he just smiled and said: "My guest, have you finished your meal? Come back later!"

"Yeah, um." Xu Xiucai was relieved, and just perfunctory, just wanted to go out, but suddenly turned back, grabbed the waiter and asked: "Do you recognize the girl who invited me to dinner?"

The guys who can greet the guests in the big restaurant are all people who have seen countless people. With a glance, they can basically identify the approximate identity of the visitor, and know what to say and what to rot in their stomachs. They are very clever. Incomparable, not to mention that he had accepted Shen Mengyi's reward earlier, now he naturally shook his head and said honestly: "I don't know!"

Xu Xiucai was very disappointed, so he had to let go of the waiter, turned around and walked out.

At this time Lue was waiting outside the restaurant, her legs were almost numb, she didn't see the person Shen Mengyi sent to replace her, and she didn't see the poor scholar coming out, so she held back her resentment and secretly sent Xu Xiucai's ancestor ten Eight generations have cursed over and over, and then saw him walking out of the restaurant with a toothpick in his mouth, his hands behind his back, with a face of contemplation, and then discerned the direction, decided on a path, and walked slowly ahead with.

Lue didn't dare to delay the things Shen Mengyi told her, no matter how reluctant she was, she had to cheer up and quietly followed behind him.
