Xie Jinnian had no doubt that if he hesitated any longer, someone would recognize him as his father.

He said coldly: "Shut up!"

Su Xiaoxiao, just shut up.

Xie Jinnian is a rare person with a gentle temperament, or rather, he is very good at controlling his emotions.

This was the first time someone had gotten so angry that he revealed his true colors.

That's right, he has never been a modest gentleman. Everything is just a disguise of being the second young master, a disguise that allows him to live better in the City Lord's Mansion.

He becomes whatever kind of son his adoptive father wants him to be.

Xiahou Zheng is independent-minded and has great leadership skills.

Xiahou Yu was well-behaved and very much liked by his adoptive father.

Xiahou Yan was intelligent and was highly appreciated by his adoptive father.

He was the only one left and became the second in command who lived a peaceful life.

"Ah! Miss! Xing'er didn't see anything! Xing'er won't tell her uncle!"

I heard Xing'er's voice behind me.

Xie Jinnian coldly distanced himself from Su Xiaoxiao.

Xing'er covered her eyes and whispered, "Mrs. Nie sent the Phoenix Grass over."

Xie Jinnian took one last look at Su Xiaoxiao and left.

Su Xiaoxiao shouted, "Wait a minute, your bird! Don't you want the bird anymore? Then at least you want two eggs!"

Xie Jinnian clenched his fists, closed his eyes, and almost lost control and killed someone.

Xing'er watched Xie Jinnian walk away through her fingers, then quickly came to Su Xiaoxiao and asked fearfully, "Miss, is that Eunuch Jin? Why do I feel like he looks different from the one I've seen before? So scary."

Su Xiaoxiao folded her arms and said, "Which of the young masters who grew up in the City Lord's Mansion is consistent in their appearance and heart? If he didn't have some scheming, he would have been gnawed to the bone long ago."

But to be honest, the eunuch leader's aura was so strong just now that she was a little shocked.

Su Xiaoxiao picked out two phoenix birds, put them in a cage, tied them with a bow, and asked a disciple from Baihua Palace to deliver them to Xie Jinnian.

Xing Er asked, "Miss, I don't understand why you want to invite the two elders to stay for dinner?"

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Leaving only Xie Jinnian will easily arouse suspicion."

Xing'er understood: "I see. But Miss, will Eunuch Jin... board our pirate ship?"

Su Xiaoxiao corrected him seriously: "How can it be called a pirate ship?"

Xing Er: “That’s called—”

Su Xiaoxiao: "A big boat full of power and wealth."

Xing Er: “…”

Not long after, Wei Qing came over.

He was wearing the clothes of a disciple of Baihua Palace and had not disguised himself.

During the Western Jin Dynasty, Wei Qing presented himself as Mr. Zhuge, who sat in a wheelchair, had no martial arts skills, and wore a mask.

Xiahou Zheng had never seen his true face, let alone seen him standing up.

So even though Wei Qing was standing in front of Xiahou Zheng last night, Xiahou Zheng didn't recognize him.

"Second brother." Su Xiaoxiao greeted.

Xing Er bowed: "Second Master."

Wei Qing nodded slightly and said to Su Xiaoxiao: "After the people from the City Lord's Mansion left, I realized that Dad is also very good at making friends."

The two elders were treated very well and the wine jars were completely emptied.

Wei Xu was a brave and resourceful general, but as his sons, they had only seen his stern side.

...There is also a side where he suffers social death many times when he is unconscious.

My father-in-law is the best and I won’t accept any rebuttal.

Wei Qing smiled.

Thinking of something, Wei Qing's smile faded and he said, "Last night, when Xiahou Zheng led his men to search, they didn't even leave out the small compartments and drawers. It looked like a violent search, rummaging around, but from what I've observed, every place was searched by at least three people in turn."

Su Xiaoxiao said with emotion: "Second brother is very careful and even noticed this. It seems that they are not only looking for people, but also for other things."

Wei Qing nodded: "Dragon crystal."

Xiahou Qing suspected that the fourth piece of dragon crystal was in the hands of the Wei family, and Xiahou Yi would also suspect the same.

The difference is that Xiahou Yi knew that Duanmu Qi was Wei Xu.

Last night, Xiahou Zheng deliberately let Yuwen Huai and Yuwen Xi go and lured them to Baihua Palace, which was actually a plan that killed two birds with one stone.

Not only did he frame the Baihua Palace for harboring criminals, he also used the excuse of searching the palace to find the fourth dragon crystal.

Su Xiaoxiao, who understood all this, could not help but sigh again: Xiahou Yi is really scheming! Fortunately, she has the habit of leaving important items in the pharmacy.

As for whether they searched for the half of the treasure map at the same time last night, Su Xiaoxiao thought not.

Min Ningwan probably didn't dare to announce that the other half of the treasure map was in his hands, and it was eventually stolen.

Otherwise, if Xiahou Yi knew that she had betrayed him, she would end up in a miserable state. - On the carriage back to the City Lord's Mansion, Xie Jinnian said nothing.

Next to him was a box of dragon crystal and at his feet was a cage containing a phoenix bird.

The big red bow looks festive.

There were two other people sitting in the carriage. The guard in blue was named Ye Lang, and the guard in gray was named Ye Xun.

The two are brothers, Ye Xun is the elder brother.

Ye Xun said: "Sir, what are you thinking about?"

Ye Lang said to his brother, "Young Master is of course thinking about the Dragon Crystal. If you present the Dragon Crystal to the City Lord, our Young Master will have done a great deed."

Ye Xun looked at Xie Jinnian and said, "Do you really want to offer it? If the city lord asks, how should we explain the origin of the dragon crystal? Should we tell the Wei family members?"

Ye Lang snorted, "Just tell them. They want to use a piece of dragon crystal to drag you down. If they dare to do it on the first day, we will do it on the fifteenth!"

Seeing that Xie Jinnian didn't say anything, Ye Xun pulled his brother and said, "Say less."

At this moment, Xie Jinnian was not thinking about Long Jing, nor was he thinking about whether to hand over the Wei family.

Instead, he was wondering whether the second master Xiahou Yi had secretly betrayed his adoptive father?

He thought of Xiahou Yan's death.

He had no clue before, but if, he meant if, Cheng Su did not lie to him, then the murderer was most likely the Second Master and Xiahou Zheng. - Xiahou Zheng returned to the City Lord's Mansion and reported the search results to Xiahou Qing, saying that he had dealt with the thief who made false evidence to slander Baihua Palace.

Xiahou Qing was a little unhappy.

His relationship with his son was already bad, and now he had wrongly accused him, which made the situation even worse.

But it's not his fault.

The son came to plead for mercy in the morning but was rejected, and in the evening Yuwen Xi and Yuwen Huai escaped from prison.

In addition, on the island, Yuwen Xi and Yuwen Huai didn't know anyone else except Yun Lin, so anyone would think that Yun Lin was the most suspicious.

Xiahou Zheng took the initiative and said, "Foster father, no matter how you look at it, what happened last night seemed like a conspiracy. It was aimed at Baihua Palace, and also at me. Last night, I... severely offended Yun Lin."

He told about the one-hour standoff with Yun Lin, and also said that he was targeted by the Baihua Palace today, making himself a complete sucker.

If he fights with Yun Lin, who will be the winner? Xiahou Yan is dead, Xiahou Yu is seriously injured in bed, and he and Xiahou Zheng are brothers, so they have always been united.

Then only Xiahou Jin is left.

Xie Jinnian: There are always some crazy people forcing me to take action.

Are there any double monthly tickets left, babies? Vote for Eunuch Jin!
