The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 268 Meeting in Private
After sending Jia Lian and his wife away, Mu Xu sat alone in the courtyard thinking about the police illusion. Out of the corner of his mind, he caught a glimpse of Yang An poking his head at the Moon Gate, and immediately shouted, "What are you doing? Come in if you have something to say, why not?" Like a thief?"

Yang An saw that Mu Xu had told him that he had broken his whereabouts, so he stopped hiding and came to Mu Xu. After bowing and saluting, he turned his head and looked around again.Seeing this, Mu Xu couldn't help frowning, and said a little displeased, "You..." Before he finished speaking, he was blocked by Yang An's words, because Yang An whispered, "The Lord Hepu sent someone to come Send a letter, please come to the house tomorrow to talk."

"Cough... my cousin probably has something important to do with me, so next time I have something to say, just speak up, so why hesitate." Mu Xu coughed lightly, and said somewhat insincerely.

Although Yang An responded straightforwardly, he didn't take it seriously in his heart. The prince regarded him as a secret, and he didn't think about walking with him all day. He knew everything about him very clearly. Could it be that this matter How dare you say no in front of the Crown Princess?

"Okay, you can retreat." Mu Xu didn't know Yang An's slander, waved his hand to signal him to retreat, got up and went to the study, found a few land deeds from the space, and flipped through them casually.These land deeds are the dowry that Qin Keqing sold off, and entrusted him to buy several farms outside the city, in order to buy some property for his younger brother Qin Zhong.

For this younger brother who has no blood relationship, Qin Keqing can be said to be heartbroken. First, he took Mu Xu's door and sent him to Xiuyiwei as an errand, and then settled the matter with the little nun Zhizhier for him, and let Qin Ye pinch him. I recognized it with my nose.But this Qin Zhong is helpless. When he was still in the Embroidery Guards, he just fumbled around every day. Recently, he went crazy for some reason. He suddenly resigned from his job. What did he say? Work hard to study, and take the exam next year.Fortunately, Qin Keqing believed his nonsense, and in order to let him have no worries, he actually gave him money to buy property for him, saying that it was so that his brother would not be too embarrassed when he went out to socialize with literati, and would lose face.

Qin Keqing seldom went out of the gate on weekdays, and if she didn't go out of the door, she entrusted the matter to Mu Xu.Of course Mu Xu would not refuse such a trivial matter, so he sent someone to do it, and by the way, checked Qin Zhong's recent whereabouts.He didn't want to wait for the news, but it almost stained his ears. The so-called study by Qin Zhong was just running to Yiyun Tower every three days, and having a passionate fight with a brothel girl named Meier.

From ancient times to the present, this brothel and casino have been the biggest gold-selling caves. Thinking that Qin Zhong is only the son of a fifth-rank official, and how much money he puts in it, wouldn't Qin Keqing be taken for a ride?What Mu Xu is hesitant about now is whether to tell Qin Keqing about this matter, let's not talk about it, I feel a little bit uneasy.But if she said it, she was afraid that Qin Keqing would not be able to accept it for a while. After all, she had always placed high hopes on this younger brother, and Mu Xu was very clear about this.

"My lord, my concubine asked you to go there." Mu Xu was in a trance when he was suddenly interrupted by Zijuan's voice outside the door. He raised his leg to the door and opened it, walking towards the main room. Go, and asked aloud, "What is the concubine Shizi?"

Zijuan followed behind, and replied charmingly, "The return to the son may have something to do with the second master Pan. Just now, master Lin sent someone to say that he will take the second master Pan back tomorrow."

"Well, it's been a while since Pan'er came to our house, and it's really time to go back." Mu Xu replied casually, and came to the main room while speaking, but saw Daiyu directing the servants to pack Maoge'er's clothes and toys , he asked a little puzzled, "Didn't you say that Pan'er is leaving, why are you arranging Maoge'er's clothes again?"

Daiyu came to Mu Xu with light lotus steps, held his hand and said, "Daddy sent someone here today. Besides wanting to take Pan'er back, he also said that he hadn't seen his grandson for a few days, and he was thinking badly. So I think Tomorrow when I send my younger brother back, I would like to take my son to stay at her mother's house for a few days, how about you?"

"Since my father-in-law misses Brother Mao, it's okay if you take him there for a few days, but you must not stay for a long time. Don't forget that your mother is coming back soon. If you don't see your grandson when you come back, you will be unhappy."

"Don't worry, how can I forget such a big event, I'll be back in two days at most, and I have to preside over the matter of welcoming my mother."

"As long as you know it in your heart, then I will personally send you there tomorrow morning."

In the early morning of the next day, Mu Xu sent Daiyu and others to the Lin Mansion, chatted with the father-in-law who had been waiting for a while, and left in a hurry on the pretext of going to the palace.After leaving the gate of the Lin Mansion, he sent away all his entourage, and rode alone towards Rongning Street.

Arriving at Hepu Princess' Mansion, Menzi saw that it was his master's cousin coming, of course he would not stop him, he opened the door and let him go without even asking.Mu Xu walked through the front yard all the way, and met Baozhu who came to greet him in the Yimen. Before Baozhu saluted, he waved his hand, "You don't need to be too polite, where is my cousin?"

After Baozhu noticed that there was no one around, she hurriedly replied, "If you go back to Master, the girl is waiting for you in Tianxiang Tower."

Mu Xu had been to Tianxiang Building before, so he didn't need the orb to lead the way. Hearing this, he turned his head to the west, passed through several courtyards and porches, and entered Huifang Garden. He said out of breath, "My lord, the girl is in the quiet room on the third floor."

"Okay, I see, you go and do your work." Mu Xu replied casually, and was about to lift his legs to go in. Unexpectedly, Baozhu grabbed his sleeve and reminded him in his puzzled eyes, " My son, the four girls often come to Huifang Garden to paint recently, so..."

Mu Xu was taken aback for a moment, raised his hand and gave Baozhu a chestnut on the head, shook his head and said with a smile, "I have something to discuss with my cousin, where are you going!" Rubbing the orb on his forehead.

Looking at Mu Xu's disappearing back, Baozhu stomped her feet resentfully, and said to herself, "Huh, speaking is better than singing, as if I don't know what you are doing, you are happy, and I am so happy every time Every time I’m worried and don’t say anything, I still have to watch out for you!”

After coming to the quiet room on the third floor, Mu Xu pushed the door open and saw Qin Keqing sitting at the table with a few wine and vegetables, looking at him with a smile like a flower.Mu Xu was overjoyed, walked up to her and sat down, and said with a smile, "What is my cousin doing, trying to get me drunk early in the morning, is she trying to do something bad?"

Faced with his cousin's teasing, Qin Keqing raised his hand and pinched his arm, rolled his eyes back and said, "Who wants to do something bad, I think it's because you are not serious."

Mu Xu grabbed Qin Keqing's hand that pinched him, and pulled it into his arms with just a slight movement...

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Keqing got up from Mu Xu's arms with a rosy face, and while arranging her dress, she blamed, "It's all your fault, the food and drinks I prepared are all cold."

Mu Xu didn't care at all, "It's cold when it's cold, and I've just had breakfast, and I don't have the appetite to eat."

Qin Keqing sat down on the chair next to her again, poured a glass of wine for Mu Xu, and then talked about the purpose of calling Mu Xu, "I asked you to buy me some farms, how are things going?"

"How dare I not be dedicated to what you have told me." Mu Xu took out a few land deeds from his bosom and handed them to Qin Keqing.

After Qin Keqing caught it, she looked it over several times, and found that they were all Shangtian not far from the capital, and said happily, "Thanks for your hard work, cousin. With the promise of these farms, Brother Zhong will not worry about running out of money when he goes out in the future." Money is used."

Seeing the joyful look on her face, Mu Xu really couldn't bear to break her fantasy, so he choked back his words a few times.Unexpectedly, Qin Keqing noticed his abnormality, and asked softly, "My cousin has something to say, but it's okay to say it, why are you polite with me?"

Mu Xu changed his mind and remembered something else, so he took the opportunity today and said, "I want to talk to my cousin about Jia Rong."

Qin Keqing's body was fixed, she bowed her head in silence for a while, and then said softly, "Why are you talking about him so well?"

"Cousin, after listening to me, I sent someone to investigate Jia Rong's place of exile, and found that this guy actually married a wife there, and his wife is the daughter of the local prison guard."
