Allure of a Country Maiden
Chapter 826
After Shangguan Xuanyi read the contents on the paper, the stern look on his face became even deeper.
Xiaoer was a little dumbfounded after reading the content on the paper. What is this and what is it!
There were only a few words written on the paper: Be careful of frame-up.
Who would frame them? Why? For their wealth? Xiaoer was thoughtful.
"What should I do, Brother Shangguan?"
Shangguan Xuanyi crushed the note into pieces, put a chicken wing on Xiaoer's rice: "Ignore it for now, drink the soup quickly, and then eat."
"Aren't you curious?" Xiaoer picked up the spoon after listening to his words and asked while drinking the soup.
"I'm curious, but I'll wait until I'm full." If you want to frame yourself, you have to see if the person has the ability.
Xiaoer pursed her lips after hearing this, then lowered her head and ate obediently.
The shopkeeper only brought a plate of soy sauce chicken, a plate of green vegetables, a pot of seaweed and egg drop soup, and two bowls of white rice.
Very simple dish, but delicious.
Shangguan Xuanyi picked out all the parts that Xiaoer liked to eat and gave them to Xiaoer to eat.
Xiaoer is actually not picky and eats everything but fat meat.
But no matter how picky you are, there will always be something you particularly like to eat.
Xiaoer loves to eat chicken wings.
Shangguan Xuanyi put both chicken wings into her bowl.
Xiaoer happily finished the two chicken wings. Shangguan Xuanyi gave her another chicken drumstick. Xiaoer picked up the drumstick and said, "Brother Shangguan, please take a bite and help me see if the drumstick is cooked."
How could Shangguan Xuanyi not know what she was thinking? He said without raising his head: "There is no blood in the bones. They are ripe. Eat them quickly!"
Xiaoer had no choice but to finish the chicken legs.
After Xiaoer finished eating, Shangguan Xuanyi took another chicken leg and put it in her bowl.
She had eaten three-quarters of the most delicious parts of the chicken, and she would not eat the remaining drumstick under any circumstances. Xiaoer took the drumstick into Shangguan Xuanyi's bowl, with a look of grievance on her face. Authentic: "Brother Shangguan, do you keep giving it to me because you think this chicken is too unpalatable? But I still like to eat the chicken legs in the space."
Shangguan Xuanyi's hand that was about to take the chicken leg over paused. Although he knew that Xiaoer deliberately left a chicken leg for himself to eat, these dishes were indeed not as good as the food in the space. "After drinking donkey hide gelatin soup in the evening, eat Sleep with a bowl of bird’s nest.”
Xiaoer: "..."
She was just joking with the shopkeeper just now! Why is he so serious! After eating so much meat, she will be full for a long time, okay? Where can I eat bird's nest and donkey-hide gelatin?
Xiaoer discovered that she had been treated like a pig since she shed a little blood! Euphemistically called nourishing blood!
After Shangguan Xuanyi said this, he lowered his head and concentrated on killing the chicken legs, ignoring Xiaoer's entanglement. This girl didn't have a few ounces of meat in her body. How could she do it without eating more.
After the two of them finished eating, Shangguan Xuanyi called Zhao Yong and asked him if he came here a day early and knew about the situation in the county.
Zhao Yong only arrived last night. He got up the next morning and was busy cleaning the room where Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiaoer were going to live. In the afternoon, he went to wait for them outside the city gate. Even if he saw something unusual, he didn't have time. Find out.
He also took the opportunity to inquire among the people and shopkeepers, but no one dared to say anything.
After hearing this, Shangguan Xuanyi gave Zhao Yong a few instructions, and Zhao Yong left on horseback.
Then Shangguan Xuanyi took Xiaoer out of the inn, took a walk, had some food, and took a look at the situation in the county.
We had dinner relatively early. Although the sun was about to set, it was still bright.
At this time, there were more pedestrians on the street than during the day. It must be that people who had been busy for a day had finished work and went home to eat.
Everyone walked in a hurry, and everyone couldn't help but glance at Xiaoer and the others when they passed by them.
The two of them didn't care about the looks of passers-by and walked hand in hand on the street. Xiaoer originally wanted to find a jewelry store to buy some jewelry and show off her wealth, but she didn't see a jewelry store after walking for several streets.
Not only were there no jewelry stores, many shops on the street were closed, with a layer of dust covering the doors. It was obvious that they had not been open for a long time.
This county is in a state of depression.
After walking around, it was already dark.
There was no one left on the street.
After they came in, the shopkeeper locked the door and went back to his room to sleep.
Xiaoer felt vaguely that something would happen tonight.
really
In the middle of the night, a dog barked in the distance.
Then a scream came from downstairs.
Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiaoer sat up from the bed at the same time, quickly dressed and ran downstairs.
The sound just now was clearly made by the shopkeeper.
When the two came downstairs, they saw a dark figure running out of the door.
The shopkeeper slept in the first room on the first floor, and the door to the shopkeeper's room was open at this time.
Xiaoer wanted to chase the black shadow, but Shangguan Xuanyi reached out and held her wrist.
Then Yang Liu quickly chased after him.
Shangguan Xuanyi walked into the shopkeeper's room with Xiaoer behind him.
Yang Mei raised her sword to protect them behind them.
Through the moonlight streaming in through the window, one could see the shopkeeper wearing a white coat lying quietly on the wooden bed, with a dagger stuck in his chest.
Xiaoer quickly thought of the note the shopkeeper gave them during dinner: Be careful of framing!
The shopkeeper was killed because of them!
Xiaoer felt a sense of guilt in her heart. She quickly broke away from Shangguan Xuanyi's hand and ran over.
Hope not dead! Hope it comes in time!
Xiao'er sniffed the shopkeeper's breath, and there was still a little breath!
Xiaoer felt happy, and she quickly took out a healing pill and fed it to him: "Brother Shangguan, come and pull out the dagger!"
Xiaoer took out another bottle of gold wound medicine, and after Shangguan Xuanyi pulled out the dagger, she was going to pour some gold medicine onto the wound and press it to prevent the blood from flowing too fast.
Shangguan Xuanyi walked to the bed and quickly pulled out the dagger.
Xiaoer quickly sprinkled a little gold medicine on the wound.
At this time, a group of officers and soldiers holding torches poured in outside the gate.
The light of the torch instantly illuminated the entire inn.
When the leader saw the bloody dagger in Shangguan Xuanyi's hand, he sneered in his heart: It was like a man and a man taking the stolen goods together! He shouted: "Someone, please catch these three murderers!"
Yang Mei raised her sword to block the door and scolded coldly: "Bold!"
"That's right! You are so brave, you actually dare to kill people in Zhenyang County! Take them all away from me! Hand them over to your Excellency for trial!"
After hearing this, dozens of officers and soldiers rushed forward with spears in hand.
"Stop, we didn't kill the person!" Yang Mei said loudly.
Xiaoer quickly put the golden medicine back into the space, and at the same time stood up with a long whip in her hand.
Shangguan Xuanyi drew out the sword in his hand and glanced around with sharp eyes.
The soldiers who rushed forward were so frightened by his domineering aura that they did not dare to step forward.
