Chapter 6 Going North and Going South(2/2)

*

Wen Jisheng stayed outside Ban's mansion for several days, and finally caught the flower-picking thief who was about to make a move three days before Ban Xiyu left the cabinet.

Lou Xiyue's prediction was good. After the turmoil on the night of the Lantern Festival, the flower-picking thieves were really vigilant. Wen Jisheng tried countless tricks. In the past, he had to find a girl from Youlan Pavilion to pretend to be Ban Xiyu to deceive the thieves.

Come out with a flaw.

After catching the flower-picking thief, he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the silent sound. He handed the thief over to his employer without stopping, and returned to Orchid Pavilion after receiving the reward.

But as soon as he came back, Qi Niang told him that Lou Xiyue had left.

"She really left? That's not allowed. You should say hello to him when you ask to leave." Wen Ji's voice was puzzling.

Qi Niang threw a letter at him: "If you don't believe me, I'll throw you away! Now, if you want to read the letter she left me, I'll find out?"

When Wen Jisheng was reading the letter, Qi Niang was complaining: "Have you left or not? How much trouble did we cause him there in those days? The benefactor who came to visit thought that his Youlan Pavilion did not open a brothel.

We've opened an inn instead! What do you think? Let's finish reading."

Wen Jisheng sighed and said: "I've finished reading." He threw away the letter and turned around to take his luggage: "Tsk, she went to do things without saying a word, which made him not ask for help. Okay, anyway.

Otherwise, he should worry too much. Qi Niang——"

"What are you doing? I want to leave too?" Qi Niang looked at him in surprise: "Go to that friend of mine?"

"What is he looking for her for? She is very capable and can handle it on her own." Wen Jisheng raised the umbrella, threw a piece of silver and left. He put Qi Niang on his back and waved his leg: "He's gone, come here.

Goodbye moon."

Qi Niang grabbed the silver and rolled her eyes: "Who will meet me in the next month? If you ask for a meeting, you can't meet with his silver!"

Wen Jisheng led the horse out of the city, but got a letter on the way. His new employer asked him to go to Quenanzhuang. If he couldn't, he could change the route halfway and go southeast.

In the tea shop outside Huaijiang Mansion, while he was waiting for the waiter to load the wine bag, he saw a horse galloping eastward on the mountain road in the distance. The horse ran so fast that it raised a lot of dust.

At first, Hen Jisheng didn't care about the little horse, but when he glanced at the person on the horse, he suddenly felt something strange and walked upright from his chair.

Lou Xiyue?

He wondered in confusion: Didn't she go to the capital to track down the murderer? Why was she there?

At this time, the waiter came over and said, "Sir, my wine bag is full. Is Ye Yi worth ten cents..."

"Thank you." Wen Jisheng took the wine bag, swung his leg and threw a bunch of coins, then straddled the horse and chased the horse just now.
