Chapter 55 Distress
After Chu Qingyun sent her mother back to her room, Housekeeper Liu hurried over.

Just now, Chu Qingyun sneaked into Butler Liu and followed the Nan family.

"Uncle Liu, how are you?"

Uncle Liu took a breath, nodded and said: "Young lady's guess is right, the Nan family sold the dowry gift on the spot, went back to the inn to pack up their things, and left the city without stopping."

Chu Qingyun raised her eyebrows, really anxious?
The Empress Dowager hurriedly issued an order to send her away, and before Wutian came, the Nan family's betrothal gift came, that is to say, the Nan family had already left before the Queen Mother's order was issued, obviously it was well prepared.

Now that the marriage was postponed by Chu Qingyun on the grounds of the dowry, they rushed back in a hurry, fearing that it would be delayed by a second.

What are you in a hurry for?
Chu Qingyun waved her hand: "Uncle Liu, I understand, you go down first."

After finishing speaking, Chu Qingyun went back to the room, and said directly: "Zhiqing, pack up something soft, change into men's clothes, and go to Xijian with me."

"Xijian?" Zhiqing became worried: "Girl, are you worried about the eldest son or go to see... to see the future husband's house."

"It's all there. Pack up your things and don't let anyone find out. I'll go to the villain's house, and I'll come back as soon as I go."

Chu Qingyun thought again and again, although she was cured of the poison, she did not return to her previous state. The road was steep and steep, and Xijian City was not a place she was familiar with, so she had to bring someone from the past.

Chu Qingyun thought of Nanzheng. When she chose the fourth team of bad people, she saved it for personal use. This time she took Nanzheng to Xijian alone. If she couldn't subdue him completely, the leaders of the four teams would be We have to change.

Chu Qingyun moved out of Wuyunsan from the stable and jumped up.

Mr. Huo has been very busy in the house of bad people these days.

The Forbidden Army made such a big commotion before that all the officials were turned upside down. Today, Lu Jinzhou lingered in Hualou and became the shopkeeper. His Majesty handed over all the power to bad people.

Mr. Huo is well aware of the importance of this matter, and Chu Qingyun has just been unsealed, so it is not suitable for meddling, so I can only do it myself.

The cases assigned to Chu Qingyun were all old cases.

Chu Qingyun specially found out an old case in Xijian, which was a murder case three years ago, in which two girls under the age of 13 died, and the real culprit was not found out for three years.

This kind of old case is basically hopeless. Of course Chu Qingyun knew it. She took the case file to find Mr. Huo and asked, "Mr. Huo, Qingyun has something unclear and wants to discuss it with Mr. Huo."

Mr. Huo didn't raise his head: "Qingyun, I'm really sorry, I really can't separate myself, what's the matter, let's talk another day?"

Chu Qingyun was neither in a hurry nor slow: "Master Huo, Qingyun has discovered some doubts about this case, and wants to take Nanzheng to the field to investigate, but I don't know Mr. Huo..."

Lord Huo nodded immediately: "Don't worry, these are major cases, and you will be rewarded if you solve them."

Chu Qingyun put away the file, glanced at Nan Zheng behind her, and signaled to leave.

Nan Zheng was taken aback for a moment, he clearly saw that Chu Qingyun had just randomly pulled out a dossier, and he didn't find any doubts at all.

Chu Qingyun smiled and said nothing until Nanzheng couldn't help but say, "Lord Chu, what is the purpose of our going to Xijian?"

"Purpose? Did you hear that the Nan family came to the Chu Mansion yesterday?"

Of course Nanzheng heard about it, he was humiliated by Chu Qingyun, and when the common people talked about their daily life, they were very happy.

"I'm going to play for my own sake and see what kind of family my future husband's family is like."

Nanzheng's expression was serious: "Girl, you should go, the Nan's family has given themselves too much face."

The three packed up their belongings and set off immediately without delay.

Zhiqing doesn't know how to ride a horse, Chu Qingyun wants her to go to Wuyunsan, but Wuyunsan, who has always been docile, has lost her temper, and throws Zhiqing down several times, making a whirring sound, as if she is angry.

Zhiqing had no choice but to get on Nanzheng's horse.

The three of them ran towards the west gate of Zhongzhou.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, Nanzheng's horse was already panting with exhaustion, but Wu Yunsan was fine.

Men in Dazhao love horses, just like modern men love cars. Nan Zheng looked at Wu Yunsan, and wanted to get close to Wu Yunsan and stroke his mane, but was almost overturned by Wu Yunsan.

"Lord Chu, your horse is a thoroughbred on the border of Xijian. Where did you get it? It's too rare."

Chu Qingyun was a little embarrassed: "I... picked it up."

Wu Yunsan shook his head and stomped his feet unhappily, kicking up layers of dirt.

Chu Qingyun said with a smile: "No, I didn't pick it up, it's a god-sent horse."

As she coaxed the inexplicably angry horse, her doubts grew.

Is Wu Yunsan really a horse from Xijian?Or a rare gem?

However, this horse is very temperamental, no one else can touch it, and it can only be ridden by itself. If it is said that no one has trained it and it is only due to fate, Chu Qingyun will definitely not believe it.

There is only one possibility. Someone gave me a top-quality horse. That person not only knew that she often climbed over the back wall of Jing'an Temple, but also knew exactly when she did.

Xijian?

Jing'an Temple?
The libertine?
Chu Qingyun shook her head, no, no, he loves horses like an idiot, and is reluctant to part with them.

Chu Qingyun patted the horse's head, and the dark clouds scattered their hooves quickly, passing through the long and narrow Donglin Mountain in front, it was the boundary of Xijian.

It is said that Donglin Mountain is full of dangers, many thieves haunt here, and most people would take a detour, but Chu Qingyun was anxious to go to Xijian to find out, so she chose this road.

As soon as she entered Donglin Mountain, she felt something was wrong, it was too quiet here.

The valley was quiet and silent. It was already spring, but there was no sound of birds flying here, and there was a trace of strangeness in the air.

"Nanzheng, be on guard." Chu Qingyun carried poisonous powder and hidden weapons with her.

If there are few people, she can still support it for a while, but if there are many people on the other side...

While Chu Qingyun was thinking, several black figures suddenly appeared from the woods on one side.

Nan Zheng got off his horse and stood in front of Chu Qingyun's horse.

"Master Chu, you take Zhiqing away first, there are quite a few of them."

There was no fear on Chu Qingyun's face: "If I bring you here, I must take you back."

Chu Qingyun touched the ring with her fingers.

On the other side, the man who took the lead in rushing out didn't seem to intend to make a move immediately, his eyes lit up when he looked at the horse under Chu Qingyun.

"Young master, look at your horse. You must be worth a lot. I'll tell you the number. As long as you pay enough, I will let you go immediately."

Chu Qingyun nodded: "Let's listen."

The man stretched out his palm: "5 taels of silver."

"If not?"

The man's face changed slightly, and he shouted: "No, just leave your name and this horse."

5 taels, when the eldest brother Chu Qiuyi went to Xijian this time, he only took 5 taels for business.

Seeing Chu Qingyun's contemptuous expression, the man immediately realized that he had been tricked, and swung the big knife in his hand.

Before the sword was cut off, Chu Qingyun's fingers suddenly moved.
