Chapter 194 None of my business Mei Cheng'an did not stay in Prince Jing's mansion for too long. He only gave Prince Jing a brief explanation of today's activities and the reasons why they were so dirty, in order to avoid his wife being scolded. Mei Cheng'an had arranged the four carriages of the Mei family when he entered Prince Jing's Mansion. He asked Qingniao and others to send the things and Mei Yuxi home first, and then return the rented carriages to the carriage shop after unloading the things, and then come to pick him up. Because of the division of labor, the efficiency was not slow, and the blue bird returned quickly to take him home. By the time he finished washing and changing his clothes, it was already completely dark and it was just time for dinner. After a whole afternoon of crazy fun and exhausting energy, Mei Cheng'an was already starving, not to mention Mei Yuxi. So the two siblings ate their dinner with great enthusiasm and gusto, devouring the food so ravenously that Mei Zhili and Mrs. Mei were stunned. What on earth did these two unfortunate kids go through out there? How did they become like this? They’re like starving ghosts reincarnated! …… Fan Mansion. After dinner, Fan Xian moved the recliner to the corridor under the patio and lay leisurely on it admiring the stars in the sky. As he was admiring him, his pupils became somewhat distracted and it was obvious that his thoughts had wandered off to who knows where.
"What are you thinking?" A sentence suddenly popped up above my head. Fan Xian answered subconsciously. "Nothing, just... huh?" Why does this voice sound so familiar? Looking up suddenly, Fan Xian saw an inverted bust that he was more familiar with. "Uncle Wuzhu?" Fan Xian stood up from the recliner and looked at Wu Zhu, shouting in great surprise. "Thank God, uncle, you finally showed up! Where have you been all these days? I missed you so much!" Wu Zhu could feel the joy in Fan Xian's heart, but he just answered Fan Xian's question without any fluctuation in his tone. “I went to Jiangnan once.” Fan Xian had long been accustomed to Wu Zhu's way of speaking, always speaking only of the main points. He never expected any emotional feedback, but after hearing where he was going, Fan Xian was stunned for a moment. "Jiangnan? What are you going to do in Jiangnan?" This time Wu Zhu did not answer immediately, but asked a question in return. "Is the young lady's box still there?" "exist!" Fan Xian took Wu Zhu into the living room, asked him to wait at the tea table, and went straight to get the box and placed it in front of Wu Zhu. Without waiting for Fan Xian to ask, Wu Zhu looked at the box and spoke. "I want to open the box that the young lady left behind, but the past is vague. I only remember that the key should be in Kyoto, but I can't remember where exactly."
Fan Xian listened quietly, feeling somewhat puzzled. "Since the key is in Kyoto, why did you go to Jiangnan?" Wu Zhu's head turned slightly, as if he was lost in some memories. "I vaguely remember that the young lady and I discussed this box in Jiangnan. I want to walk the same path we walked back then to see if I can remember anything." Fan Xian suddenly realized. "Then do you remember?" Wuzhu Road. "I can't remember the exact location, I just remembered some clues. What I can confirm now is that there are two possibilities for the key to open this box. Either it is in the palace!" Fan Xian was surprised. "Royal Palace?" Wuzhu Road. "Yes! If we have time, we can search." "..." The corner of Fan Xian's mouth twitched, and he looked at Wu Zhu speechlessly. "Uncle, I know you are skilled and bold, but you can't be too outrageous. That is the imperial palace, not our own backyard. You can search it whenever you want. Not to mention that there are many masters in the palace, you yourself said that one of the four great masters might be in the palace. We don't even know who he is. If we rush into the palace rashly, we will be courting death." Wuzhu Road. "If he is really in the palace, perhaps he is the old eunuch named Hong!" Fan Xian thought about it and vaguely remembered that his teacher Fei Jie had mentioned a name to him. "Hong Sixiang? Okay, even if it's him, uncle, can you hide the fact that we entered the palace from him? If you can, it's not impossible." Wuzhu speaks the truth. "It's impossible to hide it, we can only force our way in!" Fan Xian spread his hands. "Well, why don't you tell me about the second possibility?" Wuzhu Road. "The second possibility is that the key may be in the place where the young lady lived in the past." Fan Xian's eyes lit up. "The place where I lived? Where? Does it have a name?" Wu Zhu said: "Taiping Villa!"
Fan Xian savored the name and felt it was somewhat familiar, so he asked excitedly, "Where is the location?" Wu Zhu said: "Near Kyoto!" Fan Xian: “???” "It's okay nearby, can you be more specific?" Wu Zhu was silent for a moment and then said something. "Can not remember." "..." Wu Zhu added another sentence. "Help me find it!" "..." After being speechless for a long time, Fan Xian hesitated to speak, and almost got internal injuries from holding it in! There were too many things to complain about, and he really didn't know which one to complain about first. Moreover, even if he did, Uncle Wu Zhu on the other side wouldn't understand him, so Fan Xian thought about it and gave up. As for Wuzhu asking me to help find it, this... Sighing, Fan Xian stood up, picked up the box, and said something. "Okay~ I can only ask my father." He put the box back in place, pulled the mechanism, watched the box rise into the air, and after making sure it was hidden, Fan Xian returned to the tea table. After he sat down, Wu Zhu said something that he had not had time to say just now. "Don't let Fan Jian know that I'm back in Beijing." Fan Xian agreed without asking the reason. "it is good!" After pouring himself a cup of tea and taking a sip, Fan Xian asked Wu Zhu curiously. "Hey, uncle, did you just get back tonight? Where are you going to stay tonight? Why don't you stay at my place? Anyway, there's no one else in my yard except me." Wu Zhu only answered Fan Xian's first question. "last night." Fan Xian was stunned for a moment. "Last night? What... Oh, you rushed back last night. Uncle, your answer was so concise that I couldn't react for a moment. Then you... Eh? That's not right. Uncle, since you rushed back last night, why did you only come to see me tonight? Were you delayed by other things?" Wu Zhu said. "I saw you last night, but you were with someone else at the time, so I didn't show up!" "Have you seen me? Is there anyone with me?"
Fan Xian recalled for a moment and suddenly realized. "Oh, uncle, you mean the period after I left the Overwatch Council, right? The person I was with was called Mei Cheng'an. He was... a very good friend of mine. We could talk about anything. I even mentioned you to him." Wuzhu Road. "I heard your conversation. You trust him very much." Fan Xian nodded. "Besides Uncle Wuzhu and Teacher, he is one of the people I trust." Wuzhu didn't say much. "Just trust him." Fan Xian laughed. "I'll introduce you two some other day." "it is good." After saying this, Wu Zhu stood up and spoke to Fan Xian. "That's it for today. Find Taiping Villa as soon as possible. I will be in Kyoto these days." Fan Xian also stood up. "Uncle, don't you live with me?" Wu Zhu decisively refused. "Don't stop!" After that, he turned around and left. Fan Xian looked at his back and asked. "Where do you live then? How can I find you if I have news?" Wuzhu said without even turning his head. "I'll come to you." After saying that, Wu Zhu disappeared in front of Fan Xian in a flash. …… After dinner, Mei Chengan took a stroll in the yard for a while before he felt less bloated. After admiring the moonlight for a while, I washed up and went to bed early. Silent all night. The next morning, after breakfast, Mei Cheng'an changed into his official uniform, got on a carriage and went to work at the Honglu Temple.
at the same time. Fan Mansion. After breakfast, Fan Jian called Fan Xian to the study. As soon as Fan Xian closed the door of his study, he was stunned by Fan Jian's words. "Lin Gong is dead." Fan Xian was indeed a little confused and extremely surprised. "What did you say? Who died?" Fan Jian looked at him and said. "Lin Gong! He was found by the Overwatch Council. He died yesterday in a remote manor in the suburbs. The person who killed him might be a master of swordsmanship." "..." It was difficult for Fan Xian to explain his emotions at the moment, which were really complicated. He had said that he wanted Lin Gong to die, but that was just talk. He never expected that it would really come true. It’s just…hard to comment! Fan Jian suddenly asked. "What are you thinking?" Fan Xian came back to his senses and answered. "Nothing, I just feel weird. The night before yesterday, I found out from Si Lili that the real murderer behind my murder was Lin Gong. I didn't expect him to be dead yesterday. This...can't be directed at me, right?" Fan Jian was a little surprised. "Is that what you think?" Fan Xian was stunned for a moment. "Ah, is there anything wrong with me thinking this way?" Fan Jian didn't answer, but looked at him strangely and suddenly asked a question. "Has Wuzhu returned to Beijing?" His previous reactions were all real, this time he was pretending. He just looked confused. "I haven't seen him for a long time since we parted in Danzhou. Why did you suddenly mention Uncle Wuzhu..." As he spoke, Fan Xian's eyes suddenly widened, pretending to be confused but actually genuinely surprised. "Oh my god! You don't suspect that I asked Uncle Wuzhu to kill Lin Gong, do you?" Fan Jian looked carefully into Fan Xian's eyes and felt that his reaction was not fake. He then completely put his mind at ease and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I didn't doubt you, I just asked casually. Okay, it's okay, you can go." "..." Hammer asked casually! You are obviously doubting me! He finally understood what it meant to be at home and have a pot fall from the sky. It has nothing to do with me. It's outrageous! Fan Xian was really speechless. He turned around and took two steps when he suddenly remembered what Wu Zhu had told him. He stopped and turned around to ask. "Do you know Taiping Villa?" Fan Jian, who had just sat down, glanced at Fan Xian when he heard this. "What do you ask for this?" Fan Xian said "oh". "I heard that was where my mother lived back then!" "Yes!" "I want to revisit the old place and pay tribute to the past." Fan Jian flatly refused. "can not go!" Fan Xian was stunned for a moment. "why?" "I told you that your mother's identity must not be known to anyone!" Fan Xian thought about it. "Then I'll just watch from a distance, okay?" "no!" "..." Fan Xian walked out of the study with a depressed look on his face. Fan Ruoruo, who had been waiting outside the door, came up to him and whispered mysteriously. …… (End of this chapter)
