metropolis.
In the past few days, people in the Qinghui felt that something was wrong with Jiuye, and they talked a lot.
"Jiuye locked himself in the room again, don't know what he was doing?"
"A few days ago, a few gamblers owed debts, and Jiuye asked me to let them go."
"It has never happened before..."
Cao An came over, these voices fell into his ears, and he frowned.
During this period of time, Jiuye's state was indeed different from before. He has become particularly gentle, and his work has become much more relaxed.
Cao An is a little worried. Jiuye often stays in the room alone recently. Cao An once asked Shen Jiu, but Shen Jiu did not answer.
Without Shen Jiu, Cao An could only give up.
Cao An glanced at the few people who were talking. Even though Jiuye was different from usual, how could others talk about Jiuye's affairs.
Cao An stepped forward and said in a cold voice: "What Jiu Ye does, he naturally knows what he has done."
"As long as you take care of yourself, everything else has nothing to do with you."
After hearing this, the few people in the Qinghui all bowed their heads and stopped talking.
At the other end, Shen Jiu was in the room. He looked at somewhere with a very serious expression, not as lazy as he used to be.
There was a man standing in the room, he was the sign language teacher invited by Shen Jiu.
After seeing Ajiu at the Warlord’s Mansion last time, Shen Jiu knew that Ajiu could not speak at present, and she used sign language to tell others what she thought.
From then on, Shen Jiu had a thought in his heart.
He has to learn sign language.
A Jiu used sign language to express her meaning, and Shen Jiu used sign language to communicate with her.
If Shen Jiu doesn't understand sign language, then he can only learn Ajiu's thoughts from the crowd.
However, Shen Jiu hoped to know what Ajiu wanted to say in the first place.
In doing so, Shen Jiuneng felt that he was closer to Ah Jiu.
Shen Jiu has been learning sign language for a while, and today he just reconfirmed whether he did this string of sign language correctly.
At this time, Shen Jiu raised his hand and made a series of sign language.
Means, do you remember who I am.
Then he looked at the teacher and asked: "Am I doing this right?"
The teacher looked at it carefully and said: "Jiuye, you are right to do this."
Shen Jiu made another series of sign language.
It means, how is your health recently.
The teacher also gave an affirmative answer.
Next, every series of movements that Shen Jiu made was affirmed by the teacher.
After the teacher left, the room fell into silence.
The air is extremely cold, the tea on the table has long since cooled, and the heat has dissipated.
However, Shen Jiu didn't realize it.
He is still practicing those sign languages, over and over again.
These movements were very clear in his mind, but he was still worried that he was not doing well enough.
It's Ajiu, Shen Jiu is always extremely careful.
Today, Shen Jiu is going to see Ah Jiu at the Governor's Mansion.
A few days ago, when Lu Huai was not in Shanghai, Shen Jiu looked at the Peace Hotel for him. Shanghai has been quiet recently, and some minor issues have been resolved by Shen Jiu.
When Lu Huai returned to Shanghai yesterday, Shen Jiu wanted to go to the Governor's Mansion to see Ajiu.
Shen Jiu had to get Lu Huai's consent before he could see Ah Jiu, so Shen Jiu had to talk to Lu Huai first.
Shen Jiu picked up his coat, opened the door, and left the metropolis.
The car started and drove slowly towards the Warlord's Mansion.
When he arrived at the Governor's Mansion, Shen Jiu saw Lu Huai and said his intentions.
Lu Huai knew Shen Jiu and A Jiu's past, and naturally understood Shen Jiu's thoughts, but Lu Huai would still put his sister as the most important.
Lu Huai said, "Don't see Ajiu alone."
A Jiu doesn't like to be in contact with people, and his body is not well. Lu Huai attaches great importance to A Jiu.
What's more, Ah Jiu doesn't remember Shen Jiu now, Shen Jiu is just a stranger to Ah Jiu.
If Shen Jiu were to be alone with Ah Jiu, Lu Huai would not be relieved.
Hearing this, Shen Jiu felt relieved. Lu Huai meant that he agreed.
Lu Huai told him that Ajiu was now in the garden of the Warlord's Mansion.
Shen Jiu left the study and walked straight to the garden.
Today, the weather is fine, and the cold sun is falling, spreading a layer of light on the garden.
Shen Jiu walked slowly, with tall trees on both sides, sunlight falling from the gaps in the leaves, and deep and shallow light and shadow on the ground.
Along the way, Shen Jiu felt very quiet all around.
Shen Jiu raised his eyes, and his eyes paused somewhere.
A young girl turned her back to Shen Jiu, she was extremely thin, and she was wearing a large coat.
It's Ajiu.
Shen Jiu took a deep breath, lifted his foot and walked over.
Shen Jiu came to the front of Ah Jiu, stopped, his eyes fell on Ah Jiu.
The sun shone on Ah Jiu's face, making it even more white and bloodless.
Chen Ma saw Shen Jiu, she had received Lu Huai's order, and stepped aside, but made sure that the two of them were within her sight.
Lu Huai was in the study, he walked to the window sill, and he happened to be able to see the situation in the garden.
Shen Jiu has arrived in the garden, and he is standing in front of A Jiu.
The distance between the two is not close, Lu Huai relieved.
After confirming that this would not affect Ajiu, Lu Huai went back to do his own thing.
Ajiu sat there, and she noticed someone coming over.
She raised her eyes and glanced over.
This man has a devilish face and a slender figure. He lowered his head slightly and stared at himself.
Ah Jiu recognized him.
It's Shen Jiu.
Somehow, although Ah Jiu lost her memory, she always felt that he was somewhat familiar when she saw Shen Jiu.
Ajiu made a series of sign language.
Lord Shen.
Shen Jiu watched Ah Jiu's movements extremely seriously. He raised his hand and made a string of sign language.
Ajiu, do you remember me
Shen Jiu was a little nervous when doing sign language in front of Ah Jiu for the first time. He was worried that he was not doing well enough, and also worried that Ajiu couldn't understand it.
Ah Jiu was stunned for a few seconds.
When I saw Young Master Shen last time, he still couldn't sign language. After Lu Huai's explanation, he knew what he was talking about.
Ah Jiu is a little bit puzzled: Master Shen, do you know sign language
Shen Jiu saw A Jiu's movements clearly, and a slight smile floated on the corner of his mouth.
Naturally I learned it for you.
Shen Jiu would not say these words, Shen Jiu only told Ah Jiu: If you want to learn, you can learn.
A Jiu seemed to understand something, she smiled.
Remembering that Shen Jiu had just asked himself if he still remembered him, Ah Jiu shook his head.
Ajiu: I may have met Master Shen, but I can't remember it now.
Shen Jiu was not surprised when Ah Jiu said this. She has lost her memory now. If her memory is to recover, she cannot do it overnight.
Shen Jiu came today with another purpose. He wanted to take Ajiu to look outside, but he didn't want Ajiu to stay in the Warlord's Mansion.
Staying in one place is not good for Ah Jiu's health. When Ajiu goes out with him, he will protect Ajiu from harm.
Besides, Shen Jiu had already thought of a way to make Ah Jiu remember him.
Shen Jiu looked at Ah Jiu with soft eyes: There are many fun places in Shanghai, I want to show you.
Ajiu, can you go out
Hearing Shen Jiu's words, A Jiu's eyes brightened a bit.
Over the years, in order to restore her body, she has been staying in the nursing home. She hasn't touched the outside world for a long time.
The bustling and noisy Shanghai Beach has long been blurred in Ajiu's heart.
If he could go for a walk, Ah Jiu would not resist either.
But Ajiu hesitated a little. Her elder brother attached great importance to herself. She was just in good health. If she were to go out, her elder brother would not be relieved.
Ah Jiu looked at Shen Jiu: I must get my brother's consent to go out.
Shen Jiu raised his head and glanced at the study room of the Warlord's Mansion. There was no one by the window.
Shen Jiu thought, when he meets Ajiu, Lu Huai will look at them. Now that Lu Huai is not there, he should be busy with other things.
He and Lu Huai will mention this later.
Shen Jiu looked at Ah Jiu with an extremely gentle expression: I will talk to your brother.
Ajiu smiled.
The sky darkened a bit, and it was time for Shen Jiu to leave. His eyes fell on Ah Jiu, unwilling to move away.
A Jiu's smile was faint, and he looked very peaceful.
Shen Jiu made a series of sign language.
Ajiu, I'm leaving now.
A Jiu smiled and said goodbye to him.
Shen Jiu left the garden and walked slowly to the study.
As he walked, he wondered how could Lu Huai allow him to take Ajiu out.
Shen Jiu stood at the entrance of the study, but he didn't go in for a long time. He didn't know how to talk to Lu Huai.
Shen Jiu is very aware of Lu Huai's concerns. Ajiu is not in good health. It is best to stay at home now.
If he just offered to take Ajiu out like this, Lu Huai would refuse if he wasn't sure. And he also felt that doing so was a bit reckless.
Anyway, there will always be a chance in the future, and it will not be too late to take her out when Ajiu's health is better.
Shen Jiuhu was relieved. He was very satisfied to see Ah Jiu today. Other things will come slowly in the future.
The door of the study was slightly open. Lu Huai saw Shen Jiu standing at the door for a long time and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shen Jiu returned to his lazy expression: "It's nothing, just tell you a word, I'll go first."
Then Shen Jiu turned around and left the study.
Looking at Shen Jiu's back, Lu Huai suddenly smiled.
He naturally knew Shen Jiu's mind. When facing Ah Jiu, Shen Jiu was quite measured.
…
Ye Chu knew that on the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, his grandmother would go to Hanta Temple.
Ye Chu was going to Hanta Temple to find out what was going on, to see what kind of person Master Jingyun was.
Hanta Temple is not far from my uncle's house, and my grandmother never leaves too early.
Ye Chu left Ye Mansion early in the morning and went to his uncle's house.
Old lady Ye was in her small Buddhist hall, chanting scriptures in her mouth, and she was holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand.
"Grandma." Ye Chu's voice sounded.
Old lady Ye was a little surprised, and stood up: "Why are you here today?"
Ye Chu walked to the old lady Ye and took her arm: "Grandma is going to Hanta Temple to offer incense, I will go with you."
The old lady Ye was stunned. I don't know when A Chu became interested in the temple, maybe it was a temporary one.
It may also be that the family is bored, and A Chu just wants to go for a walk.
The old lady Ye did not ask much, and agreed.
A Chu happened to be with her, so she could talk along the way.
Hanta Temple.
There is a pavilion in the backyard of Hanta Temple, and no one will come on weekdays.
There is a stone table with black and white chess pieces on it, and a pot of hot tea next to the chessboard.
Several plum blossoms are planted around the pavilion, and the plum blossoms are in full bloom.
The branches are dotted with dots of plum blossoms, and the wind blows suddenly, sending bursts of fragrance.
Rong Mu and Master Jing Yun are sitting on opposite ends, each holding a game.
The pieces on the chessboard are messy, black pieces and white pieces are intertwined. It seems that the two have been playing for a while.
Rong Mu was wearing a plain robe, his head was slightly lowered, and he looked at the chessboard in front of him.
He didn't rush or slow when playing chess, he seemed to care about nothing, his temperament was very elegant.
Master Jing Yun picked up a white chess piece, placed it on the chessboard, and cut off Rong Mu's chess piece.
Rong Mu's chess game was blocked, but he did not panic.
He held black chess in his hand and continued to play according to the original plan.
At this time, Master Jingyun said, "Doctor Rong hasn't been here for a long time."
These days, Rong Mu didn't come to Hanta Temple, and it was the first time to visit today.
Rong Mu's expression was gentle, and he put down a black chess piece: "The wind has been tight recently and it is inconvenient. No one knows what he is doing when Lu San leaves Shanghai."
Rong Mu had been sending people to stare at the Peace Hotel. According to reports from his staff, Lu Huai hadn't appeared in the Peace Hotel for a while.
Recently, Lu Huai returned to Shanghai from Nanjing.
Rong Mu became suspicious, and he would naturally increase his vigilance.
Where did Lu Huai go? What are you planning again
Rong Mu didn't know all of these, but he would not wait to be killed, he would only take the initiative to attack.
Master Jingyun frowned, his hand movement slowed a little: "Doctor Rong doubts he will move?"
Master Jingyun knew Lu Sanshao and his temperament.
Lu Sanshao has always been suspicious, if he finds out they are strange, he will definitely take action against them.
Master Jing Yun had something in his heart, and he would inevitably bring out some emotions when he played chess. When placing the child, it was placed in the wrong position.
Rong Mu raised his head and glanced at him without a trace: "Master Jingyun, your chess game is in a mess."
Rong Mu's voice was peaceful, but with an implicit warning, let Master Jingyun not lose his composure.
Master Jingyun immediately recovered and nodded.
Rong Mu left another son: "He still doesn't know who I am."
When Rong Mu arrived in Shanghai, he had already put on a disguise, changed his identity, changed his face, and became a person completely indifferent to Mo Qinghan.
Lu Huai couldn't know the prophet, it was impossible to know that Derentang's doctor was him.
What's more, Lu Huai didn't know his existence at all, so how could he be prepared in advance.
According to the current situation, Lu Huai is in the light, and he is in the dark.
Rong Mu would defeat Lu Huai when he was unprepared.
Master Jing Yun said in a deep voice, "Master Lu is not so deceived."
Master Jing Yun is very cautious and doesn't want things to go wrong. He reminded Rong Mu not to take it lightly.
Lu Huai acted decisively and would not drag himself.
Moreover, his influence is extremely broad, Rong Mu must be careful step by step if he wants to move Lu Huai. Even if it's just a wrong step, it can't be undone.
Rong Mu's expression remained unchanged: "Even if he is suspicious, I still have a way to deal with it."
As soon as the voice fell, Rong Mu put down a black chess.
The situation has reversed and the outcome has been determined.
Although the game of chess has not been finished yet, the decline of White's chess is fully demonstrated.
And black chess occupies most of the chessboard, invading strongly, leaving no room for others.
The way Rong Mu played chess was completely different from him at this time.
Now he has an elegant face, uncontested with the world, as if he didn't care about anything.
And the real him, like the game of chess in front of him, is extremely aggressive, indifferent and decisive.
Master Jingyun gave a wry smile: "I lost again."
Rong Mu was not happy because he had won this game of chess, there was still no emotion between his eyebrows and eyes.
Rong Mu picked up the pawn on the chessboard and put it back in the chess box.
…
At this time, Ye Chu and Mrs. Ye also came to Hanta Temple.
Hanta Temple has a great reputation, with many pilgrims, incense sticks on weekdays, and white smoke in the hall.
Walking around in the temple, the clothes will be stained with incense.
Ye Chu followed the old lady Ye into the main hall, and she looked as religious as the other pilgrims.
Mrs. Ye lighted a piece of incense, closed her eyes, and knelt on the fan.
Ye Chu stood behind the old lady Ye, who was holding a stick of incense in her hand.
The incense has burned for a while, and the fire is flickering and dimming.
After that, Mrs. Ye put the incense money into the merit box on the side, and then went to ask for a lottery.
Now that he was here, Mrs. Ye naturally asked Ye Chu to ask for one too.
Ye Chu was begging for the lottery, and the old lady Ye took her to the place where the lottery was dealt with.
There was a monk standing there, of medium build, thin face, and calm expression. If others see him, they can always calm their minds and make people trust.
Ye Chu handed over the lottery, the monk took the lottery and read.
"The sword comes out of the box and shines brightly, and it does not attract dust at all in the box. Nowadays, the nobles will show up, powerful and influential."
The monk looked at it carefully and quickly explained it.
"Miss, there are many things you want to do."
Ye Chu did not answer.
The monk also said: "You will meet a noble person, if you have a noble person to help, those things will go smoothly."
Ye Chu suddenly smiled.
She thought, she knew who the noble man was.
They will work together and fight side by side. With him, they will definitely change the outcome of this life.
Ye Chu smiled: "Thank you."
After each time the visa is cancelled, Mrs. Ye always meets with Master Jingyun.
She would listen to Master Jingyun's lecture, and her mood would calm down.
In fact, Master Jingyun would meet with Mrs. Ye only because she was from the Ye family.
After Ye Chu met Master Jingyun, he saw that she was not interested in Buddhist scriptures.
Master Jingyun suggested to Ye Chu that she might as well walk around in the Hanta Temple.
Naturally, Ye Chu would not refuse, which was equivalent to getting the permission of Master Jing Yun to go anywhere in the temple at will.
And Ye Chu was trying to see if there was anything suspicious in the Hanta Temple.
After separating from the old lady Ye, Ye Chu walked to the front of the hall.
The pilgrims kept coming and going, all with a pious expression, kneeling on the fan.
Ye Chu feels a little bit of emotion, but the old and the new Shanghai has changed, but his religious beliefs have never disappeared.
Her eyes narrowed, and her gaze fell on someone.
There was a little noise all around, and the sound of talking and chanting was endless.
In the hustle and bustle, there is a silence. He was not affected at all, doing his own thing intently.
The man was calm, gentle and indifferent.
Among the many pilgrims, Ye Chu recognized him at a glance.
He is Rong Mu.
Seeing this scene, Ye Chu frowned.
A few days ago, when Lu Huai left Hanyang Prison, he took down a list.
Those people had served sentences in Hanyang Prison, and Ye Chu knew that the abbot of Hanta Temple was actually Mo Qinghan.
At this time, Rong Mu happened to appear in the Hanta Temple again.
This can never be a coincidence.
At this moment, Rong Mu inserted the incense in his hand into the incense burner, and he stopped.
Rong Mu took a step back.
He tilted his head and glanced aside Ye Chu.
She stood there, seeming to see him.
Rong Mu paused, his face was gentle, gentle and moist, like a gentleman.
In the temple, the smell of incense is extremely heavy, and it fills the air.
His steps are elegant, as if not disturbed by other things.
Step by step, he walked towards Ye Chu.
