Riding the Pheonix Chapter 44: Secret meeting


As soon as Mr. Yang and Lei Hong left, the others rushed to escape one by one.

You don’t even care if your boots are stepped off or your clothes are torn, so how can there be a difference between a female actress and a young master?

Not long after, all the living people left, leaving only shadows floating around the room.

Mingwei turned the flute in his hand and said to himself: "This is fresh and interesting."

After that, she was ready to leave.

These wandering souls will disperse on their own when the Yang Qi is strong in the morning, so there is no need to worry about them.

Although there is a door in the hall, it is locked.

Mingwei pushed it, but found that it couldn't be pushed away, so he went back the way he came.

This room is ridiculously big, and heavy curtains are everywhere. One layer is lifted, and another layer is placed after walking a few steps.

After walking like this for a while, Mingwei discovered a big problem.

She is lost...

Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. She has been very quick with things since she was a child. She knows everything at once, but her understanding of the outside world is very slow.

Not knowing people is one thing, not knowing the road is another thing.

It was okay outside, she could tell the direction based on the compass and the stars. In this room, which is decorated exactly the same everywhere, there is no reference at all, but there is nothing you can do.

She had to ask the little white snake: "Do you remember the way out?"

The little white snake was confused: "I, I was in your sleeves and couldn't see the way clearly..."

Come on, it completely destroyed her hope.

My magic power is so low now that I can’t even arrest a demon spirit to ask.

I can only be blind.

Mingwei listened carefully as he walked.

In the whole room, there were only wandering souls floating around, and I didn’t know where those people had gone.

It’s all the fault of Prince Qidong. Why did he build the house so big for nothing? He was so greedy that he knew how to enjoy himself. No wonder he was deprived of his knighthood a few years later.

After walking for a while, Mingwei lifted the heavy embroidered curtain again and finally saw different decorations.

She opened the door and found that it was a temporary dormitory.

There was no one in the hall, but the lights were bright, and the Boshan stove on the table was still burning incense.

Mingwei was thinking when the little white snake hidden in her sleeve reminded her: "Someone is coming!"

She thought for a moment.

When I meet someone at this time, it would be nice if I could take her out.

However, there may be something bad going on with a wealthy family. If you bump into someone you shouldn't see... you'd better hide away first.

She glanced around and hid in the cabinet.

As soon as the cabinet door closed, someone pushed the door open and came in.

"It's such a mess outside, don't you need to worry about it?"

Ming Mingwei was startled when he heard this voice.

She saw Lei Hong through the hollow patterns.

There is another person in front of Lei Hong. As soon as he came in, he sat down on the armchair and raised his legs on the table in an inconspicuous manner.

"Chaos, isn't it just right? Staring at our eyeliners, they are probably scared away by these ghosts."

When talking about this, he first laughed and then laughed: "Interesting! It's so interesting! Why didn't I think of this trick?"

Lei Hong's voice was helpless: "Young Master."

He turned sideways, and Mingwei finally saw the whole person clearly.

It is indeed Young Master Yang.

Just listen to Lei Hong say: "There must be a reason for these wandering souls to appear. Don't we need to check it out?"

"No need." Mr. Yang smiled and waved his hand, "I know what's going on."

"Master?"

"You don't have to worry about this matter." He said, "It's finally possible to talk with peace of mind. Let's talk about your situation first."

Business matters were pressing, so Lei Hong had no choice but to put aside the previous topic and report to him: "Your Excellency has gone through Dongning's case files over the years and found no clues."

"This is not surprising. After all, it happened ten years ago. Besides, if someone kills someone and buries their body in the wild, the government may not be able to find it."

Ming Wei heard the conversation between the two and was secretly surprised.

Are they here for a case ten years ago? Are you looking for the person who was killed?

"Where's the young master? What's the progress?"

Mr. Yang took out an ivory folding fan from nowhere and turned it around between his fingers: "I lived in Xinyuan, and countless people came to find out the news. My cousin, the king of the county, even my own I’ve given up my concubine... Tsk, tsk, you really thought I wasn’t picky!"

"Young master, you are famous."

Mr. Yang glanced upward: "It's not easy, you have learned to ridicule."

Lei Hongyi said sternly: "Even so, you can't mess around and ruin the reputation of other girls."

Mr. Yang leaned back and spread his hands: "Obviously this is someone plotting against me, okay? I'm just going along with the flow."

Lei Hong couldn't help but sigh: "How many pairs of eyes are staring at Dongning? If you make too much trouble, others won't believe it."

Mr. Yang shook his head and smiled: "Lei Hong, you have been following Mr. Jiang for so long, why haven't you learned it? If it were him, he would understand what I mean right away."

Lei Hong looked indifferent: "Of course I am not as smart as you sir. Please condescend me and tell me what the profound meaning is here."

"Those who work in the officialdom are all human beings!" Mr. Yang pointed and motioned for Lei Hong to pour him tea, and then continued, "Just mention this name to the Imperial City Secretary. If I continue to mess around, I won't be able to do it." No one will believe it. ~IndoMTL.com~ It’s better to just make a bigger fuss. The more fuss they make, the less they believe it, and the more they think I have ulterior motives.”

Lei Hong thought thoughtfully: "So before you arrived in Dongning, you quietly released the news that you had received the holy order?"

Mr. Yang took a sip of tea and said, "The word "Holy Mandate" made them unable to sit still. If I behave like this again, they will become anxious themselves."

"Oh..." Lei Hong understood, "So you are deliberately letting them think that you are pretending to let them move first."

Mr. Yang smiled while holding the teacup: "The first one who couldn't sit still was my cousin, wasn't it? None of the brothers of the Holy Lord survived. Ten years ago, even King Jin's branch was cut off. , he is afraid!"

"Young Master." Lei Hong reminded him, "We are not here to accuse Prince Qidong. The key is the follow-up to the old case ten years ago. If Prince Qidong was not involved, he should not be touched. ."

"If he doesn't commit any crime, I can't touch him." Mr. Yang said lazily, "Okay, you can't find it on the other side, so I'll do it. I don't believe that Jiang Kun disappeared in Dongning. He doesn’t know!”

"In that case, I'll take my leave first." Lei Hong clasped his fists, "Be careful."

"Let's go, let's go!" Mr. Yang waved his fan, "If you stay here too long, others will be suspicious."

"Yes."

Lei Hong walked to the door, turned back, and hesitated for a moment: "Sir, I have one more thing to do..."

"If you have something to say, just say it!"

He hesitated: "That Ming girl... can you..."

Mr. Yang looked at him and smiled: "You really like her?"

"No!" Lei Hong quickly denied, "I just hope you don't...a girl's reputation is important."

Mr. Yang stroked his forehead and looked helpless: "How bad is my reputation?"
