The abandoned concubine can't hide herself

Chapter 60: Inspector

Views:

After having breakfast with Chu Jihan, Su Ningxin planned to say goodbye and watch Cuju. Before she got up, she saw a servant from the Lu family coming to report that the inspector from the capital was coming, and asked Chu Jihan to go to the gate to greet him.

After hearing the news, Chu Jihan and Su Ningxin looked at each other, both of them were confused.

The inspector arrived a few days earlier than expected, which was okay. Maybe he was in a hurry, but when he arrived in Wenzhou, instead of going to Master Su San's house, it was a bit strange to come to Lu's house instead.

But there was definitely no one to answer their questions at this time, so the two of them walked directly towards the door without any delay.

From a distance, they saw Mr. Lu at the door talking to a young man wearing a scholar's scarf.

Chu Jihan looked at the young man dressed as an inspector and couldn't help but said, "This is the inspector of the imperial court. Is he so young?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a line of sight next to him looking at him, giving him the feeling of a light on his back.

Chu Jihan thought for a while, then turned to look at Shen Qing, and sure enough, he met Shen Qing's inquiring eyes.

If others looked at Chu Jihan like this, there would be nothing he could do, but Shen Qing was different, he could tell what the other person was thinking.

[How much did Ji Chu hide? He didn’t even know Su Zhan, the eldest son of the Su family, the Minister of Household Affairs, so why did he say that he was a secret guard of the Su family? Are you kidding me?]

Chu Jihan listened to Shen Qing's words and wanted to slap himself in the mouth to make him talk nonsense. Don't you understand that if you talk too much, you will be wrong

Chu Jihan cannot be blamed for not knowing Su Zhan, because although Su Zhan is the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he does not have any official position. He has been traveling around the four houses with the great scholar Liu Cheng and rarely appears in front of others.

Moreover, Chu Jihan had been dealing with local officials and vassal kings outside the capital for four or five years. He was really unfamiliar with the capital. He was recalled as the leader of the Dragon Guard just a few months ago. He became the leader within a few days. He was sent out to investigate the private tea business. How could he meet Su Zhan

When Su Ningxin was doubting Chu Jihan's identity, Chu Jihan was also doubting him. Why did he know Su Zhan and Shen Qing, whom he didn't even know? Where had Shen Qing seen this eldest son of the Su family, whose name he only heard but never met in person

The two of them approached Mr. Lu and Su Zhan and heard Su Zhan say, "I was supposed to go to Mr. Su's family, but after all, he is the head of the same family. In order to avoid suspicion, I had to come to bother Mr. Lu. Please don't take offense to Mr. Lu."

Mr. Lu twirled his beard and smiled, thinking to himself that the boy from the Su family was too careful. The Minister of Hubu was born in the Su family in Huaiyang, and the Marquis of Xuanning was born in the Su family in Xuancheng. Now he is outside the fifth server. Not really relatives.

After thinking about it, Mr. Lu still said politely, "Speaking of foreign affairs, Mr. Liu and I had a very good relationship when we were young. We were Jinshi in the same year, even though we lived at home."

Chu Jihan looked at the legendary Su Zhan, his face was cold and expressionless, his temperament was as noble as ice and snow, and he was very polite when he spoke and acted, making people think that he was truly a jade master.

When Mr. Lu saw Chu Jihan and Shen Qing approaching, he waved them to come to him, then pulled them and introduced them,

"This is..." Mr. Lu suddenly stopped. He was very happy to introduce his apprentice to Su Zhan, and by the way, he and Mr. Liu would compare who could teach a better apprentice.

But remembering that Chu Jihan still had to hide his identity, it was difficult to talk about it, not to mention the way Chu Jihan was disguised now. His appearance alone was compared to the ground, so what else could he talk about.

Mr. Lu paused for just a moment, and then immediately said, "This is Ji Chu, my daughter-in-law's nephew, who lives here."

Although Mr. Lu didn't show anything, Chu Jihan still intuitively felt that he was disliked based on his years of understanding as a master and apprentice.

"I've met Brother Ji. I'm Su Zhan. I'm the inspector handling the follow-up matters of the official tea case." Su Zhan was polite, but still expressionless.

Chu Jihan suppressed the thought of tugging at Old Lu's beard, and imitated Su Zhan's manner of greeting him, "I've met Mr. Su."

Afterwards, Mr. Lu introduced Su Ningxin again, saying that he was the longevity master of Xueshe Chamber of Commerce. This time, Su Zhan finally had some expression, but he just looked at Shen Qing deeply, not knowing what he meant. .

Unable to see what Su Zhan was thinking, Chu Jihan shifted his gaze to Shen Qing. As expected, her heart was very active.

[What are you looking at? As if you can see through my disguise?]This idea should be directed at Su Zhan, because Shen Qing's eyes met Su Zhan's.

After hearing this, Chu Jihan looked at Shen Qing's face carefully, but could not see any trace of disguise. If he could not hear Shen Qing's thoughts, he would never have guessed that Shen Qing was actually Disguised.

No wonder he could see his own disguise at a glance. It turned out that Shen Qing himself was a master of disguise.

Being stared at by Chu Jihan with such glaring eyes, if Su Ning wasn't sure that Shen Qing's waistcoat had not fallen off, she would have doubted whether Chu Jihan admired her.

Unable to bear the scorching gaze, Su Ningxin turned her head and looked at Chu Jihan doubtfully, her eyes a little confused.

But that was not what she was thinking in her heart, [What are you looking at? I'll dig out your eyes again.]

Chu Jihan directly ignored what Shen Qing was thinking. After spending so long with Shen Qing, he had already figured out Shen Qing's temper. He often thought wildly in his mind, but he was very cautious in doing things and did not agree with his thoughts. Completely different, a very strange person.

Chu Jihan looked at Shen Qing without fear, then gave him a look of contempt, then turned to look at Su Zhan and Mr. Lu who were talking.

Su Ning was stunned. What kind of situation was this? After she regained consciousness, she cursed in her heart, "You must be sick!"]

In fact, it is very simple for Chu Jihan to despise Shen Qing. Although he doesn't know why Shen Qing disguises himself, the purpose is to hide his true face. If he is disguised, he should be more sincere like him and disguise himself like Shen Qing. His handsome face is too fake.

Chu Jihan turned around and thought more and more wrong. The more elaborate the disguise, the more time-consuming it would be. Normally, the secret guards would just disguise themselves into ordinary people. Shen Qing did not hesitate to spend a lot of time carefully sculpting his face. There must be something wrong. What purpose.

The only thing Chu Jihan could think of was to use this handsome face to deceive the girl, Miss Su! ! !

insidious! I didn't expect Shen Qing to be such a person. Chu Jihan felt that Su Ningxin had been deceived and wanted to expose Shen Qing. At the same time, he felt that Shen Qing might have done this because of some accident that ruined his appearance. He couldn't blame him. What's more, Shen Qing helped him a lot and was considered his friend. For a moment, Chu Jihan felt like he was at war with others.

After being hit on the head, Chu Jihan looked at Mr. Lu who hit him. Mr. Lu looked at him angrily, "You will entertain little friend Su Zhan these days."

Afterwards, Mr. Lu turned to Su Zhan and said kindly, "If you have anything to do, just give him instructions. You're welcome."
