"These... are all Zhaoxiang gave Yao'er?" Xi Ning picked up some herbs, rubbed them with his fingertips, and then put the things under his nose and smelled them. There was no smell of medicine at all. Throwing the medicine leaves in the wooden box in disgust, he looked at the doctor standing below.

The doctor replied: "Indeed."

Xi Ning sneered, leaned back on the chair, several images flashed through his mind, it was the first time Shanbo came to him...

"City Master, the brothers in the attic are bullying the young master. The old slave guesses that the people behind them are the ones who did it, and that Zhaoxiang has been swallowing the money in the attic."

"I know I don't have any proof, but think about it, city lord. That Zhaoxiang is the brother of the deputy city lord. The deputy city lord has two sons. He is not considered favored, but he has a lot of gold and silver jewelry. He dresses more expensively than the deputy city lord. Even better..."

Uncle Shan was telling the truth, and he almost believed it at that time. Later, he confronted Yao'er, Zhaoxiang and the brother in the attic, and found that Yaoer was protecting Zhaoxiang...he didn't pursue it.

I've been thinking before that perhaps the reason why Na Zhaoxiang has so much money is because Yaoer treats him as a friend and withdraws it to him from the attic...

But Uncle Shan came to ask him to borrow a doctor a few days ago, but what he said at that time was...

"City Master, there is a problem with the accounts of the attic. The young master is looking for the account books of the attic to rectify the internal affairs of the attic. Zhao Xiang suddenly rushed in and killed all the servants in the attic. The scene was too bloody. The young master was frightened. I want to borrow your doctor One use."

Yao'er was checking the accounts of the attic, so the previous events were not what she understood at all...

When Yao'er didn't agree, Na Zhaoxiang killed the servant in the attic, and didn't take Yao'er seriously at all.

He also fooled Yao'er with half of these tonics that were fake medicines, that person didn't regard Yao'er as a friend at all in his heart!

If so, what Shan Bo said before has some credibility...

Na Zhaoxiang suddenly rushed in to kill, in order to destroy the evidence...

Before Yao'er protected Na Zhaoxiang, maybe it was because of kindness, but she didn't let herself know about these things. It was because Yao'er was sensible since she was a child, and many things were afraid of troubles that would drag her down...

Xi Ning curled up his knuckles and held them tightly. Under his nose, his younger brother was being bullied, but he only now knew it!

Moreover, the physical evidence has long since disappeared, and that person is still the son of the deputy city lord.

Zhaoxiang is powerful enough!

Xi Ning's face was gloomy: "Come here, go and bring Zhao Xiang."

Zhao Xiang is burning the ledger in the house. Although the crisis has been resolved this time, in fact he has not benefited from it.

All his confidantes in the attic are dead, and he can no longer withdraw the money in the attic...

This really made his heart ache, the more he felt sad, the angrier he felt when he thought of Xi Yao, and he was so angry that he wished he could kill those people in the attic directly when he thought of Xi Yao.

It's just the younger brother of the city lord, who looks a little prettier than himself, and has everything he can't have!

Zhao Xiang took a few deep breaths to suppress the jealousy and anger in her heart.

"It's not good." Suddenly the door was knocked open, and the first brother hurried forward and said: "My lord, the city lord sent someone to call you."

"!" Zhaoxiang opened her eyes suddenly, and fell silent at the same place.

Seeing that Zhaoxiang didn't respond, the brother approached Zhaoxiang cautiously, and said in a low voice: "My lord, do you think it's because of the rumor..."

A gleam flashed in Zhaoxiang's eyes and said: "Apart from the matter of dispelling rumors, what else can the city lord ask me for?"

"Then... what should we do then? Could it be that something has been exposed?" The brother panicked.

Zhao Xiang abruptly interrupted him, "Why are you panicking?"

After finishing speaking, he stood up, adjusted his clothes, and said with confidence: "Don't worry, he probably came to ask me why I killed his brother in the attic. I'll just explain it. big."

He got up and took two steps, then turned his head and said: "By the way, clean up those braziers, I don't want to see them when I come back."

"yes."

Coming in front of the city lord Xining, Zhao Xiang took the initiative and filed a complaint from the very beginning.

"City Lord! The brother in Ayao's attic is so violent that he has bullied Ayao!"

"Oh?" Xining narrowed his eyes lazily, looking at his brother below.

That brother is fat and short, he can't be called good-looking, he can be said to be the ugliest of all the hall master's biological brothers, but he has a pair of very bright eyes, which are always very clear, and he can see people normally. When you are smiling, you look very sincere... When you smile, your eyes will bend, which is very contagious.

His voice is also extremely pleasant, just like Yao'er, soft and sticky, making it easy for people to let go of their guard.

This person is usually not outstanding among the young masters, and his sense of presence is relatively low. Even if he is the brother of the deputy city lord, if Yao'er hadn't become friends with him, Xining would not have noticed him.

Originally, Xi Ning was very grateful to him. With him, his younger brother had the only friend...

But now, after he learns that this person is cheating his Yao'er, the anger in his heart is just like the gratitude before, coming all over the sky...

Unexpectedly, this person is still pretending, and Xin Ning originally had a little bit of luck, thinking how could such a sincere person like him be like this...

Looking at his acting skills now...Xining finally believed it, he was just pretending everything he did to Yao'er...

"I was so angry that I meddled in the attic and killed everyone. Am I doing something wrong?" Zhaoxiang raised her eyes and looked at Xining with innocence in her eyes, as if he really The did nothing like that.

Rao Xining had never seen such a liar, he sneered, took a deep breath and said: "If I don't invite you here, don't you plan to tell me about this? "

Zhao Xiang was taken aback when she heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Ah Yao is in charge of the attic, I thought it would be good to explain it to him, and he is not angry with me."

"Isn't mad at you?" Xi Ning asked.

"Ang." Zhao Xiang nodded without blushing.

Xi Ning smiled, originally thought that this person was just good at acting, it seems that the thickness of his skin is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"You care about Yao'er?" Xining got up and asked in front of him.

Zhaoxiang nodded: "Of course, I just heard that Ayao was bullied, and I was really worried, so I did something impulsive. It was my mistake."

Xi Ning put his hands behind his back and said: "You are worried about Yao'er, what's wrong, it's just... you killed everyone in his attic, who will take care of the daily life in the future?"

When Zhao Xiang heard this, her eyes lit up and she said, "Otherwise, I'll send some to A Yao."

Xi Ning shook his head, looked at Zhaoxiang with a half-smile and said, "Yao'er has grown up and has his own ideas. He said he wants to choose by himself, but he's going to choose his brother himself. To buy them back, he needs some silver taels. Recently, the treasury in the city Kong, I don’t have much money on hand, you are Yao’er’s friend, can you give him some first?”

Zhao Xiang hurriedly responded with a smile: "Of course it can..."

Although he answered in his mouth, he felt strange in his heart.

This Xi Ning has never been stingy with Xi Yao's money, why suddenly he became stingy when spending money for Xi Yao, and asked himself for money.

"Now I need more people, I'm afraid it will cost a thousand taels..."

Thousands of taels? !

Zhao Xiang's eyes widened in astonishment, and the smile on her face couldn't hold back.

Xi Ning said with a smile: "By the way, Yao'er was frightened, so she has to see a doctor, and make up a few hundred taels."

"One thousand and a few hundred taels?" Zhao Xiang stammered, "City Master, how can Xiang'er have so many taels of silver?"

"Tales of silver?" Xi Ning smiled but did not smile, the coldness in his eyes showed a little bit: "Where did I say it was taels of silver?"

"Copper coins?" Zhao Xiang was overjoyed: "It's okay...I..."

"Gold." Xi Ning interrupted Zhao Xiang with a word, Zhao Xiang raised her eyes in astonishment, and Xi Ning had already turned around: "A Jin, you will go to fetch gold with Mr. Zhao later, as long as his jewelry is gold Can be recharged."

"yes."

"..." Santo, what does this mean? This is to search for his money.

"City Lord, I..."

"Don't you care about Yao'er? Are you unwilling to make such a sacrifice? You, who have never killed anyone, can care about Yao'er to the point of committing a murder, and even killed a servant in the attic...Now you can pay some money. Are you unwilling? Or, in fact, you didn’t kill those people because you cared about Yao’er?”

"..." Zhaoxiang was blocked and had nothing to say. She said she cared so much about dispelling rumors earlier...she was willing to kill so many people for him.

If you don't want to take out all your wealth at this moment, it will prove that you don't care about him that much... Then it means killing someone for another purpose...

Zhao Xiang forced a smile and said: "The city lord is joking, I am so close to A Yao, so I am willing."

Speaking of the final willingness, she was already gnashing her teeth, Xin Ning stared at Na Zhaoxiang's white knuckles, and turned back to her seat in satisfaction.

"There's nothing else to do, Ah Jin, you can follow."

"Yes, Mr. Zhao please."

It is said to be taken, but it is almost the same as search.

As soon as Ah Jin arrived at Zhaoxiang's courtyard, he searched all the valuables in his room.

Zhao Xiang looked at it in pain, but he didn't dare to stop him. He didn't dare to stop others, let alone move. He watched helplessly as all the accessories he bought with money from the attic were taken away...

Years of hard work are gone.

Zhao Xiang patted her chest in pain, feeling that the depression there was hard to get rid of.

Quit the rumors! He is at odds with rumors!

Sweeping the gold ornaments all over the table with one hand, Xining's gaze became even colder.

He knows a little bit about the deputy city lord. This incense is not favored, and there is no other money at home except moon silver... If all these gold ornaments were bought with silver money in the attic, he would have to start stealing them from the very beginning of the attic. money...

Xining's eyes became colder and colder.

His Yao'er has been bullied for so long... The most distressing thing is that his Yao'er was deceived by such a person for friendship!

"Ah Jin, tonight, taking advantage of no one, gouged out Zhao Xiang's eyes and pulled out his tongue!"

It is those eyes that are the most deceiving, and that mouth that is the most eloquent.

Ah Jin replied: "Yes."

"Remember, don't let others see you." Xining warned.

A trace of strangeness flashed in Ah Jin's eyes, and he quickly lowered his head and replied: "This subordinate knows."

"Well, let's go."
