Song Ye City has already had a shadow guard who arrived first.
So the accommodation has been chosen.
Of course, most of the accommodation they have traveled along the way is rented.
However, they didn't plan to stay longer, the rent is enough, so why don't they buy houses everywhere
Even local tyrants are not so rustic.
This time, the house rented by the shadow guard is very large, almost like their Imperial City Manor...
Regarding this, Long Xiaoyuan didn't care.
However, a more comfortable place to live can also make people feel better, so that's also good.
"Do you want to walk around this house?" After entering, Shi Qingzhou asked.
"Okay." Long Xiaoyuan nodded, then took Shi Qingzhou's hand and turned around the house.
The scenery of this house is also good, especially the sea of flowers under the central corridor, which is too beautiful to behold.
"This house is very good, why rent it out empty?" Long Xiaoyuan was a little puzzled.
"It belongs to an old couple. Their children went to the imperial city and took them all over. They have lived here all their lives, so naturally they were reluctant to sell it, so they rented it out."
"Ah, so it's like this..." Long Xiaoyuan looked around. "The house is well taken care of, they moved to the imperial city?"
"Well, I moved to the imperial city."
"We came from the imperial city and lived here. It's a coincidence that they moved to the imperial city..."
Shi Qingzhou smiled slightly. "Um."
The two walked around the house for a while, and it was almost time for lunch.
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou walked to the main hall, waiting for lunch.
They just arrived here, and now the shadow guards don't have time to make lunch, but there are restaurants.
It's just buying food from the restaurant.
"This is the signature dish of the biggest restaurant in this city, Qingzhou, try it out," Long Xiaoyuan said.
Only he and Shi Qingzhou ate. As for Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan, those two guys have gone to nowhere. Therefore, Long Xiaoyuan also enjoys the two-person world with his family Qingzhou...
Uh... just ignore those shadow guards outside.
"Yeah." Shi Qingzhou responded and tasted it.
Long Xiaoyuan also ate some, and said: "The taste is not bad, but compared to the royal chef in the palace, it seems to be a bit worse, Qingzhou, what do you think?"
Shi Qingzhou nodded. "Well, it's really worse."
Long Xiaoyuan smiled. "Does Qingzhou really think so or should he agree with me?"
Shi Qingzhou glanced at Long Xiaoyuan indifferently. "Why should I respond to you?"
"Yes." Long Xiaoyuan nodded suddenly. "Well, there is nothing for Qingzhou to respond to me, so what I said is really right."
Shi Qingzhou gave a faint "um", but there was a smile in his eyes.
The two ate happily while bickering.
After the meal, Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan hadn't come back yet, Long Xiaoyuan couldn't help but ask, "Where did those two guys go? Did they eat outside?"
"They are not children." Shi Qingzhou was very cold.
Long Xiaoyuan blinked, grabbed Shi Qingzhou's arm, and said softly: "Qingzhou... In the past two days, I feel that you seem to be a little indifferent to Liu Suifeng and the others... Is it my illusion?"
Shi Qingzhou pursed his lips and did not speak.
He had tried his best to control it, but he didn't expect Long Xiaoyuan to notice it.
Sure enough, Long Xiao understood himself far better than he imagined, and he could also detect the changes in himself.
Long Xiaoyuan sighed secretly, and said softly: "Qingzhou, do you blame Liu Suifeng for not being able to protect me that night?"
Shi Qingzhou pursed her lips even more when she heard this.
The other party has this expression, what else does Shi Qingzhou not understand
"Qingzhou." Long Xiaoyuan gently kissed Shi Qingzhou's ears. "Listen to me, okay?"
Shi Qingzhou turned to Long Xiaoyuan, his eyes were not so calm. "What do you want to say?"
Long Xiaoyuan looked at his queen firmly, without flinching in his eyes.
"Qingzhou, that night, the shadow guards were all tripped up, Liu Suifeng blocked all the enemies for me, and there was also a very weird black-robed man, it wasn't that he didn't want to take me with him, but with my martial arts, Staying there will only be hurt by poisonous people, that is the end of death. He stopped everyone, and did not let a single person break through his line of defense after I fled. That night, Liu Suifeng himself suffered Several injuries. Canoe... We can't just take one side of the story can't we? He saved me, it's true. I fell into a hole, I was too careless... "
Long Xiaoyuan's words made Shi Qingzhou silent, and the other party did not speak for a long time.
Long Xiaoyuan also knew that it would be impossible for his family's Qingzhou to have no grievances in a short time.
Although, Long Xiaoyuan knew that what he said was the truth.
However, this is a society of imperial power, how many high-ranking people in the society of imperial power will think from the standpoint of subordinates? And to forgive
Although Liu Suifeng is not considered their subordinate, to be precise, it would be more pleasant to be a friend.
However, the most honorable person in this world is Long Xiaoyuan, and Shi Qingzhou cares about him, so he naturally cannot tolerate negligence.
If it wasn't for Liu Suifeng's ability to be too strong, if it wasn't for the word "friend", if Liu Suifeng hadn't saved all the people in Quanzhou, I'm afraid Shi Qingzhou would be in trouble that day
However, Shi Qingzhou endured it.
However, even though he endured it, he had to have no complaints and no grievances in his heart. If it was Shi Qingzhou who hadn't hit the Golden King Gu, maybe it was still possible, at least, it wasn't a big problem.
But now it is necessary to control Shi Qingzhou, who is murderous, all the time...
Long Xiaoyuan was afraid, afraid that if he didn't get rid of this grudge, Shi Qingzhou would completely lose trust in Liu Suifeng.
This is not a good thing for them!
That's why, today, Long Xiaoyuan spread this topic out, because it was his family's Qingzhou, not others.
"Okay, Qingzhou, I know, you can think clearly, we just had a full meal, how about going out for a walk?"
Not wanting to let this topic occupy too long, Long Xiaoyuan changed the topic.
Shi Qingzhou nodded lightly. "Um."
Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou's hand and walked outside... Only when he was outside did he let go.
"Where are you going?" After going out, Long Xiaoyuan didn't know which direction to go, so he turned his head and asked Shi Qingzhou.
Shi Qingzhou said lightly: "The street is over there."
"Huh? Well, then go over there."
There are four major markets in Song Ye City.
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou went to East Street.
This East Street legend is the oldest of the four main streets.
After Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou walked into the East Street, they felt the noisy atmosphere in it.
"There seem to be too many people, Qingzhou, you have to follow me closely."
"En." Shi Qingzhou nodded.
Long Xiaoyuan didn't have any specific goals, so he randomly found a shop and went in with Shi Qingzhou.
"Miss, can't we come out to play at this time?"
"Don't be verbose."
"But miss... that flower picker..."
"Okay, shut up. Let me hear these three words again, and I will sew your mouth!"
"Yes, miss, this servant realizes his mistake."
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou looked at each other, Long Xiaoyuan said softly: "The flower picker scared the girls in the city enough."
Shi Qingzhou's gaze fixed slightly on the young lady.
Long Xiaoyuan pursed his lips, "Qingzhou, what are you looking at?"
Shi Qingzhou didn't speak.
Long Xiaoyuan was unhappy, and tugged at the other party's sleeve.
Shi Qingzhou turned his head abruptly. "Um?"
"You're so dumbfounded by the beauty!" Long Xiaoyuan stared at Shi Qingzhou.
Shi Qingzhou smiled. "Don't make trouble, I'm not looking at the beauty... but maybe the identity of this person."
"Huh?" Long Xiaoyuan was taken aback. "Her identity? Who is she?"
Shi Qingzhou said lightly: "You have heard of it too."
"I've heard of it too?" Long Xiaoyuan turned his head and guessed right away. "Is she Song Cailian?"
Shi Qingzhou nodded. "Probably."
At this time, a shopkeeper came out from the room. "Miss Song is here, it's really radiant."
This woman is indeed Song Cailian!
However, Long Xiaoyuan was a little puzzled, his family's Qingzhou must not have known Song Cailian before, why was she able to confirm the other party's identity
At this time, the shopkeeper had already talked with Song Cailian.
"Shopkeeper, I heard that you got a new first-blood coral here, is there such a thing?"
"Yes, yes, Miss Song wants that blood coral? Please come with me..."
Song Cailian's master and servant followed the shopkeeper to the second floor.
At this time, a clerk came over to greet Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou, "You two guests, what do you need?"
Long Xiaoyuan said indifferently: "Look around at will."
"You two guests, please feel free to exhibit, our small shop..."
What Long Xiaoyuan and the others entered was a jade shop, and after Long Xiaoyuan said to have a look at it, the waiter introduced it endlessly, boasting that their products are the best in the sky and absolutely nothing in the earth.
It's really unpleasant to be so noisy when shopping.
"Okay, we will call you if you need anything, now you step back." Long Xiaoyuan interrupted the other party, and the aura of the superior on his body was released, and the guy was frightened immediately, and did not dare to introduce Yes, quickly retreat.
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou were quiet now.
However, the two didn't stay for long, because Shi Qingzhou said he wanted to leave after a while.
Long Xiaoyuan naturally followed.
After arriving outside, Long Xiaoyuan said: "Qingzhou? Why did you come out so quickly?"
Shi Qingzhou said lightly: "I don't want to buy anything."
Long Xiaoyuan thought it was not that simple, he thought of that Song Cailian. "Qingzhou, you don't want to wait for that Song Cailian outside, do you?"
Shi Qingzhou glanced at Long Xiaoyuan inexplicably. "What am I waiting for her to do?"
Long Xiaoyuan blinked. "Don't you think that woman is weird?"
Shi Qingzhou smiled "hehe". "If there is something weird, you want me to follow it? What do you want the shadow guard to do?"
"Eh..." Long Xiaoyuan was at a loss for words.
Shi Qingzhou said: "Let's go, go to another place."
"Then what about that woman?" Long Xiaoyuan asked.
"Leave it to the shadow guard." Shi Qingzhou said irrefutably.
"Okay..." Long Xiaoyuan didn't have much interest in that woman either. Since his Qingzhou family wanted to visit other places, he definitely wanted to accompany her.
A quarter of an hour later, Song Cailian and the servant girl came out of the shop with a tail behind them.
Following her is Yingqiu whose martial arts are only under the shadow wind.
However, to Yingqiu's surprise, he was noticed by Song Cailian not long after!
"Miss? Why did you stop?" The servant girl looked at her lady in confusion.
Song Cailian smiled coldly, and said suddenly: "Xiaoqian, take your things back first."
"Ah? Miss, aren't you going back?" The maid was very surprised.
"Whispering, I still have something to do, it's not suitable for you to follow, go first!"
The servant girl opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything under Song Cailian's cold eyes...
Then, the maid left anyway.
As for Song Cailian, she coldly glanced at the place where Yingqiu was hiding, and suddenly her figure fluttered and she left.
Yingqiu's eyes flickered slightly, "This girl, you are so wicked."
Then, Yingqiu chased after her...
Song Cailian did not go back to the prefect's mansion, but went to the suburbs of the city.
This suburb still belongs to the city, but there are very few people there, facing the mountains.
Yingqiu immediately sensed that Song Cailian had lured him there on purpose, and to be cautious, Yingqiu left secret signs along the way.
Finally, Song Cailian stopped in front of an open space.
"Not coming out yet? That's all you can do." Song Cailian sneered.
At this time, Song Cailian didn't have the ethereal temperament of a lady. Her expression was very cold. This kind of coldness made people feel inexplicable fear.
Yingqiu didn't move, nor did he go out from his hiding place.
"Not coming out? Looking for death!" Song Cailian's figure suddenly turned into a sharp arrow, and rushed towards Yingqiu's hiding place like lightning.
It can be seen that Yingqiu's hiding place has already been perceived by her eyes!
Yingqiu was startled. It really is a wicked skill!
Song Cailian knocked Yingqiu out of the shadows, but she narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Huh? Who are you?"
Obviously, Song Cailian mistook Yingqiu who was following her for someone, so she directly attacked.
However, this Yingqiu was obviously unknown to her, so she was a little taken aback.
Yingqiu said indifferently: "Passers-by."
"Passers-by?" Song Cailian narrowed her eyes again, and then suddenly thought of something, her eyes flickered slightly. "Are you... a passerby who just arrived here?"
Yingqiu also squinted her eyes, what does this mean
Yingqiu didn't answer.
Song Cailian suddenly smiled at this moment. "What a passer-by, since you have already followed, let's save your life!"
After finishing speaking, Song Cailian rushed over fiercely.
Yingqiu... challenge.
At this time, Long Xiaoyuan was pulling Shi Qingzhou around to other shops.
It was already almost evening when the two returned after wandering around for a long time.
During this half day, the two visited many shops and bought some things, and Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou to eat at some food stalls.
This good mood is gone when I get home.
Yingqiu... was seriously injured! If it wasn't for Liu Suifeng, he would have died!
"When did this happen?" Long Xiaoyuan's voice was extremely cold.
"Half an hour ago." said the shadow guard who came to report.
"The deputy leader Yingqiu failed to send out a distress signal. When our subordinates contacted him but failed to contact him, we followed the code left by the deputy leader to find it. When we found it, the deputy leader was covered in blood, but he used a turtle Breathing Dafa, so there is still one last breath left, and the thief probably thinks that the deputy leader is dead, so he will leave."
Long Xiaoyuan's face was livid, "Where is Yingqiu now?"
"The deputy chief is in the west wing, and Doctor Liu is still there."
Shi Qingzhou's face was also cold, he went to the west wing first, and Long Xiaoyuan hurriedly followed him.
When the two arrived at the West Wing, Liu Suifeng was fiddling with some medicinal herbs.
Seeing Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou enter the door, Liu Suifeng said: "You guys came just in time, his life is saved, but if you want to recover your strength without sequelae, you need two kinds of medicinal materials, these two kinds of medicinal materials are probably not available here, only in the palace .”
"I'll have someone deliver it." Long Xiaoyuan said immediately.
Liu Suifeng nodded. "Well, he shouldn't move within half a month. What kind of expert can hurt him like this... I'm also very interested." Shi Qingzhou said coldly: "Song Cailian. "
Liu Suifeng was taken aback. "Huh? The... prefect's daughter you were talking about?"
Shi Qingzhou said coldly: "Yingqiu is following her."
"Drink." Liu Suifeng almost gasped. "That woman's martial arts is so high? What is her identity?"
"What identity... I'm also curious." Shi Qingzhou's voice was cold.
Liu Suifeng felt that that woman's life had probably come to an end.
Long Xiaoyuan said: "Yingqiu's injury is fine with those two herbs?"
"Well, I promise, this is the medicinal material I need." Liu Suifeng handed the note he had prepared to Long Xiaoyuan, and Long Xiaoyuan nodded.
"Come on."
A shadow guard appeared. "Here are the two medicinal ingredients that are needed. You should go back to the palace immediately to get them as soon as possible."
"Yes!" The shadow guard took the order and left immediately.
Yingqiu is still in a coma and cannot move for half a month, which makes Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou very angry, and will definitely make the thief pay the price!
"The person who went to investigate Song Cailian, did you get any results?" Long Xiaoyuan asked Yingfeng.
"This Song Cailian is the daughter of Song Qingtian, the magistrate of Songye City. Before she was ten years old, she was raised by a stranger on the mountain. That person taught Song Cailian martial arts. She was not taken back until she was ten years old. After that, nothing happened. What's unusual is just like an ordinary lady from a great family. The reputation in the family is not bad. Until this time the flower picker incident happened... Judging from a superficial investigation, there is nothing unusual."
"Oh? Nothing unusual?" Long Xiaoyuan frowned. "Such a high level of martial arts cannot be explained by learning martial arts before the age of ten."
"Yes, the subordinate also finds it strange, and the subordinate must find out as soon as possible."
Long Xiaoyuan waved his hand and told him to go down.
Liu Suifeng said: "I'll go to Song Cailian's place tonight."
Long Xiaoyuan frowned. "That woman's martial arts are very good, don't capsize in the gutter... By the way, where is Ouyang Chuan?"
"I asked him to go to the medicine shop to buy something, but he hasn't come back yet."
"Oh... are you really going tonight?"
"Well, Ouyang Chuan and I will go together, don't worry, if we join hands, there are not many people in the world who can hurt us." Liu Suifeng said confidently.
Long Xiaoyuan heard the words and turned to Shi Qingzhou. "Qingzhou, what do you think?"
Shi Qingzhou said lightly: "Shadow Wind is with you."
Liu Suifeng was slightly taken aback. "Is this necessary?"
Shi Qingzhou said indifferently: "Compared to investigating clues, you are not as good as Shadow Wind."
"Eh..." Liu Suifeng blinked, a little bit shocked.
Long Xiaoyuan coughed when he heard the words "cough cough", how could his light boat be so straightforward? Isn't this hitting people
Shi Qingzhou didn't feel that what he said was wrong at all.
Since Yingqiu was fine here, he turned around and walked outside...
Long Xiaoyuan smiled at Liu Suifeng. "I'll leave it to you that night." Saying that, he hurried out to chase his light boat...
The corners of Liu Suifeng's mouth twitched slightly, Shi Qingzhou, that must be despising them, right
That's definitely disgusting, right
Long Xiaoyuan caught up with Shi Qingzhou. "Is Qingzhou hungry?"
Shi Qingzhou shook his head. They ate two snacks outside, and they are naturally not hungry now.
"I'm not hungry either." Long Xiaoyuan said. "Then how about we have dinner later?"
Shi Qingzhou nodded. "Um."
Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou's hand. "If there is a problem with Song Cailian, Song Qingtian, the prefect of Song, does not know what role he will play in it."
Shi Qingzhou was silent for a while, and said: "This Song Qingtian is my father's old friend."
"Huh?" Long Xiaoyuan was taken aback by Shi Qingzhou's words. "Your father's… old friend?"
"Well, before Song Qingtian came here, he had been an official in the imperial city, and he was very close to my father. I have an impression of this person. Ten years ago, when Song Qingtian came here, when he left the imperial city, my father I sent him off for twenty miles, I remember it very clearly, but in recent years, it seems that he has not been in touch with my father very much, and maybe I didn’t know when he did.”
Long Xiaoyuan frowned. "I still believe your father's vision of people... Since Song Qingtian was able to become close friends with your father in the past, he must have a good character. But... By the way, how old was Song Cailian ten years ago?"
Shi Qingzhou paused slightly. "Nine years old."
"That is to say, when Song Qingtian left, Song Cailian hadn't been picked up by Song Qingtian... Everyone here knows that Song Cailian was picked up when she was ten years old... That should be when Song Qingtian came here for a year... this Among them, will there be anything?" Long Xiaoyuan thought about it.
Shi Qingzhou looked at each other. "have what?"
"I don't know... It's just about time... Why did Song Qingnian raise Song Cailian on the mountain? If you want to learn martial arts, shouldn't she be a girl? Besides, this Song Cailian is nineteen years old and hasn't married yet... Nineteen years old There are not many unmarried women. Even if she is the daughter of an official family, she is a bit older." Long Xiaoyuan said.
Shi Qingzhou was silent for a while, and said: "Let's meet this Song Qingtian."
Have you met Song Qingtian? Long Xiaoyuan had no objection, but he couldn't help feeling a little worried...
"If there is something wrong with Song Qingtian, will we startle the snake by doing this
love, so a little hesitant.
Long Xiaoyuan thinks this is very possible
