Chapter 66: The Nail Case (20)
Besides, Hu Yuzhu stayed in an inn near Xu Zhai for another whole day. The window of the inn faced Xu Zhai, which made it easier for her to monitor, but there was still no clue. And Jiang Ze seemed to be gone this time. With her temper,
It was not easy to hold on for several days. I thought to myself, Zhou Qingyue couldn't be happier with me. The more I thought about it, the angrier I became. When I decided to leave, Zhou Qingyue came.
"You finally showed up. You said you were looking for clues but didn't tell me. Do you really think I'm teasing you?" Hu Yuzhu scolded her.
Zhou Qingyue slowly took a sip of hot tea, "Do you know where you are worse than Li Huaixiu?"
"What did you say?" Hu Yuzhu was furious.
Zhou Qingyue raised her head and looked at her, "You are too impatient."
Hu Yuzhu was about to draw the sword, but held back, and looked at Zhou Qingyue, "Where are you?"
Zhou Qingyue raised her eyebrows, looking like she was listening attentively.
"You have evil intentions."
Zhou Qingyue stopped holding the cup and frowned slightly.
Hu Yuzhu smiled and said, "Although I don't know where you have been these past few days, it must not be a good thing."
Zhou Qingyue also smiled, "Don't say it so early, I said, I have my own method, and now this method is effective."
What?
Hu Yuzhu was surprised, "What clues did you find?"
"I know He Yun's whereabouts."
Hu Yuzhu was surprised, "He Yun?" She thought it was Han Biao and sneered disapprovingly.
Zhou Qingyue sarcastically said, "Li Huaixiu died of Cha Hefan not only to save Qian Shengsheng, but also for Song Yuan. Anyone with a discerning eye can see her affection for Song Yuan. Xu Hanshan wanted to bring down Yongchang to avenge Chang He.
He Yun is the key. But Xu Hanshan was worried about his safety and hid him. He obviously didn't believe Li Huaixiu and others. If Li Huaixiu found He Yun first, he might threaten him to give false testimony to excuse Yongchang and Song Yuan.
But if this person is in our hands, Li Huaixiu's path will be cut off."
Hu Yuzhu said excitedly, "Yes, we will protect He Yun and let him tell the truth."
Zhou Qingyue's lips curled up.
Hu Yuzhu asked urgently, "Where is he?"

When Huaixiu came to Xu's house, he was still greeted by Xu Qing, "Father is not here."
"I know, I came here specifically to find you."
Xu Qing was surprised, but he vaguely guessed something, and he was a little uneasy.
Huaixiu observed his expression and said, "Mr. Xu must have known about your father's affairs."
Xu Qing was silent, feeling conflicted in his heart. Yes, he already knew. Not only did he know, but he also asked his father why he did this? He teamed up with Han Biao to frame innocent people, even though his father told him that it was for the kindness of Zhang He.
, but he always disapproved of his father's actions.
Xu Qing nodded, "Father asked me to leave the capital."
Huaixiu was not surprised, "Master Xu wants to protect you, so what do you think?"
"What...can I think? He Guangwen is very kind to our family. Without him, everything in the Xu family would not be possible."
Huaixiu said, "Master Xu knows how to repay his kindness. Huaixiu admires him, but is this the right way to repay his kindness?"
"I know it's unfair to innocent people, but there's nothing I can do about it. My father said that Yongchang has the support of his father-in-law in the palace... It's really..."
"Do you really believe that He Fan was killed by people from Yongchang?"
Huaixiu took out the documents signed by Yongchang and Changhe, "Look, there is nothing wrong with the documents. In fact, the money Yongchang paid far exceeded the value of Changhe."
Xu Qing looked serious and Huai Xiu said, "Master Xu is too obsessed with revenge, and I found many doubts during the investigation. If Master Xu really wants to find the truth, he should tell me and Yun's whereabouts.
If my family goes to court in the future, if he doesn't show up, how will the case be tried? I guarantee with my life that I will protect his safety."
Xu Qing looked at Huaixiu and saw her determined eyes. He somehow believed that some people don't need a reason. Xu Qing felt cruel in his heart and said, "Okay, I will definitely convince my father."
After leaving Xu's house, Chang An said, "Can Mr. Xu convince Xu Hanshan?"
"I don't know either, but I have to give it a try. I don't believe it. He won't consider his son's future."
Just as he was talking, Huaixiu saw Jiang Ze coming, "I'm looking for you."
"What's wrong?"
"Follow me."

You'anmen is the gate of the outer city. Because there is a large mountain outside the city, there are relatively few people in this area. Xiaofeng rode his horse and stopped in front of an independent courtyard gate on Yongcheng Street. He looked around
After making sure it was safe, he got off his horse and knocked on the door. The door opened and he stepped in.
The person who opened the door was a young man in black. Xiao Feng asked, "How do you do?"
The man in black said, "Everything is normal."
"Where are the people?"
"In the courtyard."
"Is there any fuss?"
"No, I have mentioned several times when I can go out."
Xiaofeng came to a locked courtyard door, looked through the high wall window, and saw a person sitting in the courtyard, playing dominoes, and said coldly, "One person can have fun playing."
Hei Yi smiled and said, "That's right. As long as you give him a card, he can play for a whole day."
Xiao Feng said, "The prince said that he will act as planned tomorrow. Please remind him not to say a wrong word, otherwise, he will know the consequences."
"yes."
"Be sure to keep an eye on him."
"yes."
Xiao Feng looked around again. Except for the two people standing in the courtyard, there was no one else. "Where are the others?"
The man in black said, "Ajia has gone out to do some shopping, and there are a few others in the backyard..."
"purchase?"
Heiyi said, "The old farmer who delivers vegetables said that the Chinese New Year is coming soon and he will no longer deliver goods, so I have to go out and buy it myself."
Xiaofeng nodded and left the yard.
Back at Prince Ning's Mansion, Xiaofeng was about to report the situation to Zhu Yu. Zhu Yu first said, "Choose which one to send."
It turned out that Zhu Yu was preparing a gift for Huaixiu. There were rare potted green plums, red plums, jade plums, and white plums on the table. They were beautiful in shape, elegant and refined, and had a fragrant aroma. He was hesitating.
Xiao Feng said, "Why do you have to give these? Shouldn't I give you clothes and jewelry?"
Zhu Yu shook his head, "Those are vulgar things."
"This... subordinate doesn't understand."
Zhu Yu still chose a pot of green plums and put them into a box with his own hands, because that was what he liked.
Zhu Yu was very satisfied, "Sending flowers is not important, what is important is giving them to people."
Xiao Feng said, "Li Huaixiu is looking for He Yun. He also went to Yongchang Boat Shop today, and then went to Xu House after coming back."
Zhu Yu smiled and said, "She thought Xu Hanshan knew He Yun's whereabouts."
Xiao Feng said, "Xu Hanshan can also keep his composure."
Zhu Yu said, "Six months ago, we wrote him a letter in the name of He Guangwen, and he immediately rushed to Yizhou. Although he did not see He Guangwen for the last time, he saw He Guangwen's situation at that time.
Coupled with what we taught He Yun, he hates Yongchang so much, but he is actually a kind person."
Xiao Feng said, "So the prince used Xu Hanshan to lure Song Yuan away, and if he exerted more pressure, he would have to come to the prince for help."
Zhu Yu sighed and said, "For the Song and Yuan Dynasties, I am willing to spend time and experience. I hope he is worthy of this."
Xiao Feng said, "But so far he has not come to look for the crown prince."
Zhu Yu said, "Because he feels that he still has a way to go, even if Liu Jing doesn't see him now."
Xiao Feng said, "His way is to use Li Huaixiu to find out the truth."
"It's a pity..." Zhu Yu looked at the gift box, "The result is nothing but money and money."
After saying that, he picked up the gift box and said, "Prepare your horse and go give the gifts."
At this moment, someone hurriedly came to report, "Li Huaixiu and three others went to Yongcheng Street."
