Chapter 472 Half Moon Fly
When Hei Xia Zi spoke to Xie Yuchen on the phone at night, he told him everything that had happened that day.
"Hua'er, how much do you think Qi Yu said is true and how much is false?"
"Three parts false, seven parts true."
"Which three points are true, and which seven points are false?"
“It is true that Wu Sansheng cooperated with the Wang family and donated all the members of the scientific expedition team to the Wang family for the longevity experiment.
It is also true that Qi Yu was the person planted by Pangu in the Wang family.
Mr. Qi Ba had indeed disappeared that year and his whereabouts have been unknown since then. If he fell into Pangu's hands, it is not ruled out that Qi Yu might have been threatened by them.
However, there is no descendant of the Qi family now, so this matter can only be concluded here.
The fake one is that Wu Sansheng was replaced by someone else, and Pangu knew that the Wang family wanted to turn the tables. "
There was a sound of quilts rubbing from the other end of the phone. "The Wang family is not stupid. They were supported by Pangu. It is impossible for them not to know how powerful Pangu is."
"Indeed, if they really wanted to rebel, they wouldn't have waited so many years. They would have raised their butcher knives and attacked those people who were planted in the Wang family in that turbulent era."
Xie Yuchen curled up in bed, half-closed his eyes, "Your brother said that Daddy had met Qi Yu and saved him? He even left a letter. What was his final plan?"
Hei Xiazi sneered, "Do you really believe Qi Yu's nonsense?"
"Hua'er, he has already become a ghost, how can you take his words seriously?"
Xie Yuchen turned over and yawned slightly, "Tell me the details when you come back!"
Hei Xia Zi also heard Xie Yuchen's increasingly quiet mumbling, "I'll talk to you when I come back, just go to sleep!"
"Master Huaer, do you need any help to coax you to sleep?"
Xie Yuchen was so angry that he said, "No need!"
Hei Xia Zi listened to the busy tone on the phone, chuckled, looked at the black screen of the phone, and gently kissed the screen.
"Good night! My Xifu Begonia!"
Early the next morning, after a good sleep, Xie Yuchen stood neatly dressed on the martial arts training platform in the Xie Mansion. He first practiced the physical exercise techniques taught by his father. After breakfast, he went to the study to deal with the pile of official business.
At noon, I had lunch with Aunt Nan Feng, and discussed what to prepare for the next auction so as not to offend the superiors and at the same time satisfy the curiosity of those powerful people.
I went to the opera house in the afternoon and listened to the performances of the audience. After the performance, I commented on their shortcomings one by one backstage.
After dinner in the evening, I took a walk in the small garden to digest the food, and then continued to sit in the study to deal with company affairs.
When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he used the magic tool given by his grandfather to go to his daddy's place, and enjoyed some family happiness with his daddy and father, and then was thrown out of the house by his father.
Xie Yuchen stood up from the entrance of Hua Mansion, brushed off the dust on his butt, and muttered in dissatisfaction: "Father is so annoying! He finally came here, and he just threw me out like this!"
Just as Xie Yuchen finished speaking, the door opened and a purse was thrown out from inside, hitting Xie Yuchen on the forehead.
"Go to Tiandu City by yourself and don't disturb your father's rest all the time!"
Xie Yuchen looked at the door that was closed again and opened his mouth helplessly, "Father! Please send someone to me! I don't know anyone in this world, where can I go to hang out?"
The door opened again, and a man was thrown out, "Young Master, I will take you to visit Tiandu City!"
Xie Yuchen looked speechlessly at the butler who was thrown out by his father, and the row of maids and guards behind him.
"Father, are you planning to let me take you guys to mess things up?"
Xie Yuchen looked at a gorgeous and exquisite carriage slowly driving out from the side door, with fifteen guards standing on each side.
There were three or four pretty maids waiting in the carriage, and the butler bowed and invited Xie Yuchen to get on the carriage.
"Young Master, His Highness has something to discuss with Mr. Zhang, but the day of the audit is approaching, so His Highness asked the Young Master to go on his behalf."
Xie Yuchen curled the corner of his mouth. He came here just to relax and didn't want to look at those company financial statements anymore. He didn't expect that he couldn't escape those accounts after coming here.
Xie Yuchen walked into the carriage dejectedly, changed his clothes with the help of the maids, and went to the store where he needed to check the accounts.
Zhuo Yichen had just finished a case when he heard from the housekeeper that the young master of the Hua Mansion had arrived. He ran out in a hurry without even having time to report on his work.
Zhao Yuanzhou and the others looked at Zhuo Yichen who ran out in a hurry, feeling confused.
"This is the first time I've seen Xiao Zhuo in such a hurry!"
"Whose name did you hear, Master Xiao Zhuo? How could you even forget about your duties, which you always care about the most?"
"Where are you going, little Zhuo?"
"Master Xiao Zhuo is really anxious!"
"Master Xiao Zhuo has changed his mind!"
???
Wen Xiao and the others looked at Zhao Yuanzhou with an expression of "Are you okay?", not understanding how he could say that.
"What happened? Xiao Zhuo must have heard the name of that wild man, otherwise why would he just leave us and run away without saying a word?"
Zhao Yuanzhou took out a handkerchief from somewhere and pretended to wipe the invisible tears from the corners of his eyes.
Zhuo Yichen was still a step too late. Xie Yuchen and his companions' carriage had just left and they just passed by him.
"Your Highness, the young master just left not long ago!"
Zhuo Yichen sat on the steps at the door in disappointment, "When will Brother Xiaohua come back?"
"I don't know about this either, but I heard from the housekeeper that the young master went to check the accounts on behalf of His Highness. Who knows, maybe he will be back in a few days?"
Zhuo Yichen stood up and patted the dust off his clothes, "Where did Brother Xiaohua go to check the accounts?"
"It seems to be near the palace gate where the Second Prince is!"
Zhuo Yichen nodded, then walked straight into the mansion and told his servants to go to the Demon Collection Bureau to pass on a message that he would not be going back today.
Wen Xiao and his companions received Zhuo Yichen's message after they had reported their duties to the commander.
"It seems that Master Xiao Zhuo's brother has come, so he ran out in such a hurry." Ying Lei put his hand on Bai Jiu's shoulder and played with the pigtail.
"Xiao Zhuo's brother is indeed very mysterious. No one has ever seen his true face. Even Xiao Zhuo himself rarely has the opportunity to meet him in person. So it's no surprise that Xiao Zhuo is so excited about his sudden arrival this time!"
As Wen Xiao spoke, she gently pulled out the hairpin on her hair, and then quickly wrote something down in the notebook she carried with her.
Pei Sijing stood quietly by the side, holding her bow tightly, like a sculpture, waiting beside Wen Xiao. When she heard Wen Xiao's words, she just nodded slightly and said softly, "Yeah."
Bai Jiu is still young. Although he has become a member of a team, they usually deal with cases. His understanding of Zhuo Yichen's family is only based on the half-knowledge of others.
At this moment, Bai Jiu blinked her big watery eyes, looked at Wen Xiao with curiosity, and asked doubtfully: "Sister Wen, does Xiao Zhuo have other brothers? I heard people say that Xiao Zhuo only has Master Zhuo Yixuan as his brother!"
Bai Jiu's eyes were full of anticipation. He seemed to be very interested in this question and eagerly hoped that Wen Xiao could give her an answer.
Seeing this, Zhao Yuanzhou actually imitated Bai Jiu, blinking his eyes and said to Wen Xiao in a delicate voice: "Sister Wen, can you tell me about it?"
However, his imitation made people laugh. Wen Xiao was looking at Bai Jiu with a smile, but when she turned around and saw Zhao Yuanzhou's appearance, she suddenly felt nauseous and almost vomited.
"Oh my, Bai Jiu's coquettish behavior is cute, but what about you? It's simply disgusting! You are such a big monster, but you still imitate other children's coquettish behavior. It's really unbearable!" Wen Xiao said to Zhao Yuanzhou with disgust.
"Apparently imitating someone else!" Ying Lei laughed at Zhao Yuanzhou happily while stroking his pigtail.
Zhao Yuanzhou's eyes turned red for a moment as he stared at Ying Lei and Bai Jiu, and immediately scared the two children, Little Mountain God and Bai Jiu, so much that they shrank behind Pei Sijing and Wen Xiao.
Xie Yuchen walked into the carriage and changed into the clothes prepared early in the morning with the help of the maids. At this moment, he was sitting upright at the window frame of the carriage, looking at the scenery outside that was constantly moving backwards.
"Take this opportunity to tell me about those families!"
The butler knelt aside and gave a detailed account of the stores that were about to be audited.
"These stores are getting worse year by year, and their performance is declining every year, but the business of the stores not far from them is increasing year by year."
"Dad, do you suspect someone is behind this?" Xie Yuchen was admiring the scenery outside the car while holding a cup of tea.
"Yes, Your Highness has many businesses under his name, and these are just mid- and lower-level stores. However, it is our great fault that we cannot share the Lord's worries." The butler lowered his head with a fierce look in his eyes.
"I asked someone in the mansion to investigate secretly. The shopkeepers of those shops are nepotists. All the people working in the shops are their relatives. Some even steal goods from the shops for their own use."
"In that case, we only need to hand over the people in these shops to the government to solve the crisis in those shops?" Xie Yuchen turned his head and looked at the housekeeper with raised eyebrows.
The butler sighed and continued, "If that's the case, why should we be so embarrassed?"
"It can't be that they are colluding with government officials!"
The butler nodded helplessly.
"Young Master is as good as a god! They steal the goods from the shops, and give the good ones to the local government officials to open up the road for them. They take the inferior ones back home to enjoy, and put the rest in the shops to sell as high-quality goods!"
Xie Yuchen looked at the housekeeper with some embarrassment, "So, is there nothing we can do about them?"
The butler said nothing, but lowered his head and sighed, "It's all because of our poor discipline that this villain took advantage of the opportunity and stole your highness's things!"
Xie Yuchen's well-trimmed nails tapped on the tabletop. Beads of sweat kept appearing on the butler's forehead, but he didn't dare to reach out to wipe them. The butler seemed to notice that Xie Yuchen was in a daze and quietly let out a long sigh of relief.
"Let's talk about it after I get there! You go out first!"
Xie Yuchen stared at the butler's departing back, his eyes dark, as if he had endless things to say.
"Send someone to quietly investigate the real situation over there!"
Xie Yuchen's shadow fluctuated for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.
"Xiao Cui! Bring me the pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"
The door was opened again, and a maid in emerald clothes approached Xie Yuchen, carrying neatly arranged study treasures.
Xie Yuchen took the letter paper, applied the ink that had been ground long ago, and soon the letter was finished.
Xiao Cui was kneeling not far away, with her eyes lowered, like a god or Buddha sitting in a temple.
"Send it to the palace gate as soon as possible!"
Xiao Cui took the letter without asking any further questions, turned around and disappeared into the room.
"Second Prince, this is the letter that the young master asked me to give you!"
Xiao Cui appeared directly inside Gong Yuanzheng's palace. The servants in charge of patrolling and cleaning were no longer surprised by Xiao Cui's sudden appearance.
Gong Yuanzheng opened the door of Zhenggong Pharmacy and wondered why Brother Xiaohua came back again, didn't he?
"A letter from Brother Xiaohua?"
Gong Yuanzheng couldn't wait to open the letter. After reading it quickly, he lit a fire and burned it to ashes.
Gong Yuanzheng trotted all the way to the Corner Palace.
At this time, Gong Shangjiao was dealing with some unimportant matters in his study.
Gong Yuanzheng was too familiar with Jiao Gong, and the guards of Jiao Gong were also very familiar with this little princess who had lived under their noses since childhood. They also understood how much Master Jiao loved her, so naturally they would not stop her.
"elder brother!"
Gong Yuanzheng pushed open the door of the study and first saw Gong Shangjiao kneeling behind the desk. Then he saw Shangguan Qian grinding ink beside the desk.
Gong Yuanzheng frowned and looked at Shangguan Qian, "Why are you here? Get out!"
Shangguan Qian was at a loss as she held the ink block, looking pitifully at Gong Shangjiao who was holding the wolf-hair brush, "Master Jiao, what is this?"
Gong Shangjiao would naturally not neglect his brother because of a bladeless assassin, "You are not needed here, get out!"
Shangguan Qian could only helplessly put down the ink block in his hand and left the study, looking back every few steps.
As Shangguan Qian stepped out of the study, she heard the door behind her being slammed shut, and the voice of the little princess complaining about her brother was heard from inside.
"Brother! Why did you let that woman into the study? Did you really fall for that woman's honey trap as they said?"
"What are you talking about, brother Yuanzheng? Brother Yuanzheng is the only one in my heart, how can I let go of others?"
"Brother! Don't change the subject! Why did you let that woman into the study?"
"It's just that there's no one around! It just so happens that she came to my door, so it's convenient to use her."
Shangguan Qian looked up speechlessly at the sun shrouded by the miasma of the forest, and thought to herself: Couldn’t these damn brothers wait until she left before scolding her?
After Shangguan Qian adjusted her mentality, she walked towards her yard. Today was the day when her half-moon fly attacked, and her antidote was still in Gong Shangjiao's hand. It was just a few insults, and it wouldn't cost her much.
"Miss Shangguan, Master Jiao asked me to bring this to you. He said he is very satisfied with your recent performance!"
When Shangguan Qian returned to the courtyard, she saw the maid standing in her room, waiting for a long time. There was a green jade bottle on the table next to her.
Shangguan Qian curled her lips and smiled, "Please tell Aunt Yu and Master Jiao, it's just a small favor!"
