Looking from a distance, there are lights on in the quiet little courtyard.

The carriage driven by Ali stopped in an alley next to it.

Deep in the alley, there were two dark figures waiting quietly. When they saw Ouyang Rong's carriage stopped, they immediately got on.

However, one black shadow was faster, and the other black shadow simply stopped and continued to wait.

"Mingfu."

In the carriage, Ouyang Rong was lowering his head to straighten his clothes. When he saw Yan Liulang getting into the carriage, he didn't get out of the carriage yet.

"Were you at Li's house just now?"

"Yes." Yan Liulang nodded seriously: "I just happened to see the Ming Mansion's carriage passing by."

"Rokuro is smart, come here and wait for me."

Yan Liulang covered his mouth and turned to look at the quiet courtyard not far away:

"When the Ming Dynasty passes by, I will definitely come and see the embroidered lady."

Ouyang Rong lowered his eyes and changed the topic:

"After Rong Nushi asked the Supervisory Yuan to release her, did she send someone to keep an eye on Li's house?"

Yan Liulang glanced at Ouyang Rong with a calm face:

"That's right, Ming Mansion is really good at knowing things. On the surface, it was a low-ranking Jiangzhou police officer who took them out from the Supervisory Yuan and put them back on behalf of Jiangzhou Hall.

"Actually, there should be a lot of secrets in Li's house now. The Supervisory Yuan has also developed a few subordinates among those maids and female relatives... waiting for the stupid fish to be caught."

Ouyang Rong sighed:

"No matter what god, Li Yu could have guessed something, but I didn't expect them to actually do it. It seems that Li Yu didn't worry too much.

"I was walking very fast in the afternoon and forgot to tell her to stop these little tricks."

Yan Liulang sighed:

"The female historian and the female officials of the Control Yuan really hate those rebels."

Ouyang Rong rubbed his face and said nothing.

Not long ago, Li Yu passed by his house and refused to enter. He also said that his house was gone, which was actually a double entendre.

If he returns to Li's house safe and sound, he is likely to attract Yunmeng Jianze's attention.

It is impossible to send someone to try to contact him, so it becomes another bait.

Of course Ouyang Rong, who is looking for people, is not interested in this kind of thing.

But looking at it now, Rong Nushi and the Control Yuan are still a little bit out of sorts and can't hold it back.

Don't blame Li Yu for being wary.

Yan Liulang thought for a while and asked:

"Did the Ming Dynasty send Li Yu to live in Chengtian Temple? Then should we humble ourselves and keep an eye on this person?"

"No, let him go."

"But if he runs away, it will be difficult for Mingfu to do business."

"It's okay, I won't run away."

Ouyang Rong waved his hand.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a few more words, and Yan Liulang got out of the car with a thoughtful expression on his face and left.

In the dark alley, a waiting beautiful woman in purple and gold silk came forward, ready to replace Yan Liulang and board the carriage.

"Wait a minute, Rokuro."

Ouyang Rong suddenly opened the curtain and called out to Yan Liulang.

Pei Shisanniang stopped and followed Ouyang Rong with curious eyes, looking at Yan Liulang who was turning around.

"What's the matter, Mingfu?"

Yan Liulang asked doubtfully, preparing to return.

Ouyang Rong pondered for a moment.

He shook his head again:

"Forget it, it's okay. You can go back and get some rest early."

"Yes, Mingfu."

Yan Liulang left a little confused.

Ouyang Rong's face became thoughtful, and he didn't come back to his senses until Pei Shisanniang carefully boarded the carriage, sat down in front of him, and bent down to rub his legs while he was in a daze.

"hand."

Ouyang Rong said without lowering his head.

Below, the two jade hands that were unknowingly close to the thighs shrank a little.

"When I went to Dragon City, did the embroiderer go to Chengtian Temple every day to offer incense and worship the Buddha?"

he asked suddenly.

Pei Sanniang couldn't help but raise her head and glance at the young master's elegant and handsome face.

It's a calm look.

"That's right, Miss Xiu Niang didn't let me accompany her to buy groceries in those days. She always ate vegetarian food at Chengtian Temple. I thought that Miss Xiu Niang might be used to staying in Beitian Alms Home.

, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.”

She asked in a weak tone: "Master, have I failed in my duty..."

Ouyang Rong shook his head and looked down at Pei Shisanniang.

She sat across from her, and in order to gently hammer and knead his thighs, she folded her upper body in half, bent over, and flattened her bulging breasts, which were unique to women, until they were full and overflowed, as if they were about to be squeezed out.

Coupled with the way she looks up to the man, and intentionally or unintentionally, she has the face of a weak and coquettish mature lady, which is a bit charming.

Ouyang Rong remained motionless and asked again: "Xiu Niang goes shopping and buys groceries on weekdays. Is there any place she often goes to?"

Pei Shisanniang straightened up, pulled up the wrinkled collar of her shirt, and looked thoughtful:

"There are some. For example, she often goes to a pastry shop called Taoshouzhai... There are also vegetable stalls set up by several farmers in the city..."

With a look of reminiscence in her eyes, she told everything she knew.

Ouyang Rong listened quietly.

Then, he took the initiative to change the topic.

Not long after, Pei Shisanniang finished reporting on the situation in the quiet courtyard over the past few days. Ouyang Rong encouraged her a few words and dismissed her with a wave of her hand.

Watching the beautiful woman in purple and gold silk go away, Ouyang Rong looked out the front window at the night with deep thought in his eyes.

He just realized something.

Xiu Niang hid in the Beitian Almshouse of Chengtian Temple and escaped several rounds of searches by female officials. Judging from the situation, it seemed that a chubby little novice and a certain eminent monk behind him helped with the procedures.

Where there is one there are two.

Assuming that Yue Chuzi is currently in Xunyang City, where is she most likely to be?

The answer is Chengtian Temple.

As for why the female officials of the Control Yuan failed to find anyone, it is also easy to explain.

There are too many places to hide people in this century-old temple.

Perhaps just like when Master Zhongma hid in the Pure Land Palace of Donglin Temple and stole the Mad Emperor's Cauldron Sword, Yue Chuzi was quietly hiding in a hidden corner of Chengtian Temple similar to the underground palace, waiting in hibernation.

Otherwise, why would Xiu Niang go to Chengtian Temple so frequently? Does she really miss the food at this temple?

Either look for the chubby little novice monk and the others and contact Yunmeng Jianze; or look for a virgin.

No matter which one it is, Chengtian Temple is the most suspicious place. I guarantee that no one will say anything after checking it.

And there's one more thing.

Ouyang Rong and Xiu Niang "suddenly looked back" to the dawn morning when they met again at Chengtian Temple.

Ouyang Rong remembered that his carriage had been searched, which frightened him so much that he almost ran away and became suspicious as he had just fished out the tripod sword from the lake.

Later, when he met Xiu Niang, he always thought that it was Xiu Niang who conducted the search by mistake...

Well, it may be that Yunmeng Jianze used some special methods, or Yunmeng Jianze was proficient in swordsmanship, and they were able to detect the sword energy of the nearby tripod sword and were attracted to it, although it is a bit far-fetched.

Because logically speaking, not just cats and dogs can detect the sword energy of the Cauldron Sword.

Every time the sword energy of the Cauldron Sword is leaked, the first one to find Ouyang Rong is the crazy woman named "Xue Zhongzhu".

Although I look a little embarrassed every time I run away, being able to be chased by Lady Yunmeng personally and being run away by him is really exciting and gives me a sense of accomplishment...

As you can imagine, this is a cat-and-mouse game between masters.
