Chapter 557 No Darkroom?

Chi Mohan's eyes darkened slightly as he helped Bai Yule, who had fainted, into the room.

"Xiaobai is too impulsive."

"He is too worried about Qilin, but I have to stand by your side. If Xiaobai is really allowed to go, this matter may not end well."

Even if it is confirmed that the person in the dark room is Qilin, they can't act rashly.

After all, they don't even know why Qilin went to find Princess Ning.

At that time, everyone will work hard, but Qilin will not buy it, and it will be very embarrassing.

"Tomorrow morning, you will accompany me to find Master Zuo, ask about the location of the dark room, and then find a way to sneak in, first ask what's going on." Jiang Zhimian said.

Chi Mohan nodded, saying hello.

As for Bai Yule, they were tied to the bed and locked the door along the way, lest the child do stupid things again after waking up.

After solving all this, all that remains is to wait for dawn.

"I'll stay here with you to guard Bai and Leba. If anything happens, I can help you directly. If you go back to Youranju, the movement may wake up my grandma and the others." Jiang Zhimian said.

Chi Mohan hummed, but did not refuse.

It was the first time that he and the little fox could be alone at night like this.

"If you're too sleepy, just lie down on my bed for a while, and I'll call you at dawn." Chi Mohan said.

Jiang Zhimian was indeed a little sleepy, he yawned, then turned his head to look at the man next to him, "What about you, aren't you going to sleep?"

"I'm not sleepy, I'll watch over you outside." Chi Mohan said.

Suddenly, Jiang Zhimian's cheeks felt hot.

In the current situation, she was also embarrassed to let Chi Mohan sleep with her, and felt that sweetness was not in season at this time.

After thinking about it, he said, "I remember that Qilin used to be on the floor, so there must be extra quilts in Xiaobai's room. If you can't bear it, go and sleep for a while."

"Okay." Chi Mohan nodded in agreement.

Jiang Zhimian then went to sleep in peace.

Lying on Chi Mohan's bed, the quilt and needles were full of his clear breath.

This smell made Jiang Zhimian feel very at ease.

I don't even know when I fell asleep.

Anyway, when I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn.

Haunted by the tip of the nose, apart from the cool breath in the room, there is also a faint smell of white porridge.

Just as he was thinking, Chi Mohan came in with a plate of food.

A bowl of porridge and a small dish of kimchi, with a little chili oil on it, is very tempting. Just looking at it already whets the appetite.

"Eat something casually. I've already told your elder brother that you came to me early in the morning and said that you were going to find Zuo Weirou. They didn't know that you didn't go back last night." Chi Mo Han said.

Jiang Zhimian hummed, picked up the spoon and started to eat the porridge. ,

After thinking about it, he asked again, "How is Xiaobai?"

"When I got up, I started making noises. I said I would take him there after breakfast. After he finished his porridge, I knocked him out again."

At this juncture, Xiaobai who is still asleep is more likable.

"If you're worried about Xiaobai, when you pass by the inn later, call Wang San and Guo Xiaobao over to watch over a bound person. It should be fine," Jiang Zhimian said.

Chi Mohan listened to her, "Okay."

After eating a bowl of steaming white porridge, Jiang Zhimian immediately felt refreshed.

She simply tidied up her messy hair from sleeping last night, washed her face with clean water, and then went out with Chi Mohan.

In order to get there quickly, the two of them took the same horse together and set off against the early morning sun. Their lacquered black hair was entwined in the wind, and the corners of their clothes were flapping.

Soon, the two arrived at the gate of Zuojiazhuang.

Mending knew Jiang Zhimian, and he also went to Yipinju that day, and heard with his own ears the owner of Zuo Zhuang that Jiang Zhimian was his benefactor.

Now that the benefactor came to the door, would he dare to stop him?
Immediately, he led Jiang Zhimian and Chi Mohan to meet the Zuo Zhuangzhu.

Master Zuo got up very early, even had breakfast at this moment, and was looking at the account book delivered yesterday.

Originally, he frowned, but when he heard that Jiang Zhimian was coming, he immediately relaxed it.

He smiled and went up to meet him, "Miss Jiang, Mr. Chi, why are you here?"

"I have something to ask Master Zuo, please let me know." Jiang Zhimian cut to the chase.

The Zuo Zhuangzhu is not a coy person, he immediately asked all the servants to retreat, and then asked, "Miss Jiang, if you have anything to ask me, as long as I know, I will tell you."

"Master Zuo, where is the dark room in the house where you invited Xiaobaiye's mother to live?"

"Dark room?" Zuo Zhuangzhu was very puzzled, "There is no dark room in my house."

Jiang Zhimian thought that Zhuang Zuo didn't want to admit it.

So he took a step forward, and his tone became a little more serious, "Master Zuo, I owe you a favor for today's matter. If you can use me in the future, just ask, as long as you are willing to tell me where the darkroom is, I will help you." It's important to me to know."

The owner of Zuo Zhuang was even more confused, "But there is really no dark room. When I bought that house, I didn't hear that there was a dark room. Later, when it was renovated, the craftsmen didn't find it, otherwise they would have told me."

"There's no darkroom in the house?" Jiang Zhimian was puzzled.

"Yeah, I've never heard of it." Zuo Zhuangzhu replied.

That's a little weird.

It can't be that Princess Ning went to another place to get a dark room just to imprison Qilin, right?

"However, it's also possible that the craftsman and I didn't find out, but it's not impossible for Mrs. Bai to find out now." Zuo Zhuangzhu didn't dare to say it to death.

He was quite ashamed, "After I bought that house, although I renovated it, I never lived in it. I thought that after Weirou got married, if they were too far away from me, I would give them that house, so that I can visit often."

Since it was a house for my daughter, I didn't pay much attention to it.

"Miss Jiang, is there any secret in that dark room?" Zuo Zhuangzhu asked.

"No, thank you, Master Zuo, I just heard someone say that, so I came here to ask out of curiosity." Jiang Zhimian didn't tell the truth.

But even if she didn't say it, Master Zuo knew it must be a lie.

May I ask, if you were just curious, why did you come to ask so early in the morning and say you owe me a favor?

Selling favors out of curiosity is obviously not worthwhile.

But since Jiang Zhimian refused to tell, he couldn't ask any more.

Just an idea, "Otherwise, I'll help you find that darkroom?"

"No, thank you Master Zuo. If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave, so we won't delay your settlement." Jiang Zhimian chose to leave.
