Chapter 13 Shenfu

The scarlet gate had been opened at this time, and a man about 267 was waiting in front of the door with three or four slaves.

He is dressed in a purple brocade robe, his hair is meticulously combed, and he wears a white jade hair crown on the top of his head. His face is white, his face is a little thin and long, and his tall nose is slightly eagle hooked. His sword eyebrows are flying and his eyes are bright. At this moment, he is staring at Hu Yimeng with an elegant smile.

This person is Shen Qingxi, the owner of Shen Mansion.

I don't know why a strange feeling flashed in Hu Yimeng's heart. The man in front of him knew at a glance that he was an extremely shrewd person, and his identity must be extraordinary.

"This is the lady who is proficient in the art of beasts as shopkeeper Jia said." Shen Qingxi smiled and arched his hand to Hu Yimeng.

"Try to the young master, this young lady is exactly what the villain said to be proficient in animal tamer." Shopkeeper Jia bowed to Shen Qingxi and replied respectfully.

Hu Yimeng couldn't help looking at Shen Qingxi again. She didn't expect that a small trainer would come and let the owner of Shen's house go out to meet him in person. A trace of doubt rose in her mind.

But on second thought, maybe it's because the snow leopard is going to be given to a very noble person, so the owner of Shen Mansion will attach so much importance to it. Thinking of this, Hu Yimeng suppressed the doubts in his heart.

She came forward and saluted Shen Qingxi with her fist, "Master Shen, the little girl Hu Yimeng is the trainer invited by the shopkeeper Jia."

Shen Qingxi stretched out his hand with a smile and helped Hu Yimeng, "Miss Hu doesn't have to be so polite."

He looked at Hu Yimeng with deep eyes. This woman is not only extremely beautiful, simple and charming, and her temperament is also very different from ordinary women. She is graceful, bright and free, unpretentious, and naturally beautiful. No wonder it can make the Lord remember for three years.

"Miss Hu arrived at Shenfu at the beginning of today and took a day off. Let's start the beasting tomorrow." Shen Qingxi said to Hu Yimeng.

"It's so good." Hu Yi dreamed, nodded, didn't think much, and readily accepted Shen Qingxi's kindness.

"You two take Miss Hu to the West to rest." Shen Qingxi ordered the two maids in pink dresses who followed him.

"Yes." Two maids blessed Shen Qingxi.

One of the older, round-faced maids said respectfully to Hu Yimeng, "Miss, please come with the maidservants."

"Good." Hu Yimeng nodded and agreed. She saluted Shen Qingxi again, and then turned around and followed the two maids to the west wing.

Seeing that Hu Yimeng had no doubt about him, he followed the two maids into Shenfu and walked towards the west wing. Shen Qingxi's eyes flashed.

He waved his hand to signal that the shopkeeper Jia could leave.

Shopkeeper Jia bowed respectfully again, lowered his head, retreated to the side of the carriage, got into the carriage, and returned to the sky along the original road.

Shen Qingxi turned around and slowly walked into the house. As he walked, he asked a 50-year-old housekeeper behind him in an unhurry tone, "Have all the servants on the west wing been ordered?"

"Please rest assured, the old slave has ordered it. The lady was arranged in the Wutong Garden in the west wing, the closest to the Wolong residence where the general lived. In addition to the two maids, two maids, three rough maids and two women were sent.

"Well, let them wait carefully and wait for the Lord to arrive tomorrow. If this girl is indeed the person the Lord is looking for, I will have a lot of rewards."

"The old slave obeyed."

"Okay, you can also go down." Walking to the door of the study, Shen Qingxi waved his hand and let the old housekeeper go down.

"Yes." The old housekeeper obeyed the order and left.

Shen Qingxi walked into the study alone, picked up an account book on the desk, and read two lines, but he couldn't read any more.

This time, the Lord ordered him to secretly investigate the embezzlement and transportation of the Wang clan. All the way, he found that there were many people involved in the matter, not only the Wang family, but also many ministers and families who supported the Lord. It seems that the Lord needs to consider carefully this time, and it is impossible to eradicate the Wang family through this matter. If you want to get rid of the Wang family, you still need to make a long-term plan.

However, it is gratifying that Huangtian lived up to his painstaking efforts. Today, after three years of search, he accidentally found a woman very similar to the person in the painting. Everything only needs to wait for the Lord to arrive tomorrow to confirm whether the woman is the person the Lord is looking for, and the Lord can also solve the pain of three years of lovesickness.

In the Wutong Garden in the west wing of Shenfu.

Hu Yimeng walked around the hallhouse under the leadership of two maids, passed through a rockery and pond, and walked through the winding Jiuqu corridor to a small courtyard of a single-family house in the west wing. The blue bricks on the yard door were carved with the words of three Wenxiu of Wutong Garden.

The maid led Hu Yimeng to push the door and walked in.

There is a two-story building in the courtyard. There are many tall sycamore trees planted in front of the small building. The leaves are densely sheltered from the sun, and the whole yard looks cool and quiet. In the corridor downstairs, there are all kinds of flowers and trees planted in flower pots that Hu Yimeng can't name.

"servant, slave, meet the lady." Hu Yimeng just walked into the yard and stood neatly in the yard waiting for Hu Yimeng's arrival. Three rough maids and two women hurriedly saluted Hu Yimeng.

Hu Yimeng quickly waved her hand to get them up.

She was puzzled again. She has just arrived at Shen's house for a moment. Why are there so many servants waiting for her in the courtyard? There seems to be something hidden in it.

Hu Yimeng was suspicious, so she was more careful about everything and observed the words and deeds of the nine people in this courtyard more carefully.

There is a lot of right and wrong in the big house, and she doesn't want to get involved in what is right and wrong.

"What are the names of you two?" Hu Yimeng asked the two maids who brought her to this sycamore garden.

"The name of the slave is Chuntao." The older, round-faced maid replied.

"The maidservant's name is Qiu Ju." Another younger maid with a melon seed face was also blessed and replied.

"Qiu Ju, accompany me upstairs, Chuntao, go get a basin of warm water, and I'm going to bathe the little fox. Just now, he ate all the juice in the sky, which was so dirty. Hu Yimeng told Chuntao and He Qiuju.

"Yes."

The two maids took orders. Chuntao went to the small kitchen in the northwest corner of the courtyard to fought water, while Qiu Ju took Hu Yimeng to the second floor and came to her bedroom.

Hu Yimeng looked at the elegant room. The window of the room faces south, and the lighting and ventilation are excellent. The window is just shaded by the branches and leaves of the sycamore growing in the courtyard. The cool breeze is very pleasant. There is a mahogany carved bed against the east wall. There is a thick jujube-red satin wall hanging on the bedpost, embroidered with a hundred butterfly flower patterns. Next to the bed is a dressing table with a large bronze mirror, on which there are some rouge gouache and pearl jewelry commonly used by women. There is a round table in the middle of the room with four stools. There was a small door on the west wall, and Qiu Ju told Hu Yimeng that it was a room for bathing.

After a while, Chuntao brought water. Hu Yimeng pushed away Chuntao and Qiu Ju and came to the bathroom with the little fox in her arms. She pressed the little fox who was struggling to take a bath and washed it carefully.

Hu Yimeng bathed the little fox in the bath, and Chuntao and Qiu Ju stayed in the room to make the bed for her and burn the incense burner.

Qiu Ju was young and couldn't hide her heart. She quietly came to Chuntao, her eyes sparkled with curiosity, and whispered, "Sister Chuntao, who is this lady? This appearance is like a fairy, isn't it the person the young master looks like? This Wutong Garden was specially built by the young master three years ago.

"Nonsense!" Chuntao scolded in a low voice: "How can we, as servants, casually discuss the right and wrong of the master? This lady is a rich person. I just need to serve carefully, and everything will be known by tomorrow.

Qiu Ju spit out her tongue and closed her voice, but her eyes were still purring. Although there were still many doubts in her heart, she did not dare to ask any more questions when she heard that Sister Chuntao, who had been serving the young master, had been saying so.

Although the conversation between Qiu Ju and Chuntao is very low, how can it be hidden from the ears of Hu Yimeng, a real nine-tailed fox demon?

Although she bathed the little fox in the bathroom and separated a wall from them, their conversation did fall into her ears word for word.

Listening to the maid Qiu Ju's words, this Wutong Garden seems to have been specially built to welcome someone three years ago, and the big maid Chuntao said to Qiu Ju, "Everything will be known tomorrow", which seems to be a mystery. After thinking about it, Hu Yimeng was sure that this matter must be related to her, but the people in Shen's house concealed it from her alone. This feeling of being hidden in the drum made her very unhappy.

I have been thinking about what the two maids had just said. After Hu Yimeng bathed the little fox, she made the two maids leave the building.

She sat alone on the mahogany carved bed with the little fox in her arms until it was dark, and there was still no clue in her heart.

The two maids entered the room and lit the lamp and brought dinner to Hu Yimeng. Hu Yimeng took two bites of it and let the two maids go down.

The little fox ate full in the sky and took a comfortable hot bath. At this moment, lying in Hu Yimeng's arms, he curled up and fell asleep.

Should I leave immediately or stay to see what will happen to the "tomorrow" mentioned by the maid Chuntao? Hu Yimeng frowned. She seems to have put herself in danger for a hundred taels of gold.

Unconsciously, it has been nearly three times.

The dim candlelight emits a mysterious light, pulling the shadow of the furniture in the room very long.

At this time, a dark shadow suddenly flashed outside the window of the small building.

"What kind of person!" Hu Yimeng was immediately alert. She instantly mobilized her five senses and concentrated on the person who sneaked into her small building and didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend.

After a long time, there was no sound outside the window, only the sound of cicadas accompanied by frogs in this quiet night.

Hu Yimeng breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat on her forehead.

Since she agreed to the request of the demon emperor Mo Ming on her deathbed three years ago, she was chased and killed by Kongxi, the peacock king, and fell into a deep cliff. In the past three years, Hu Yimeng has been more cautious.

She knew that Kong Xi would not let her and the little fox go. Maybe he is looking for her and the little fox all over the world.

But fortunately, now she has cultivated her human form, and it must be that Kong Xi may not immediately recognize her as the white fox when she sees her again. Moreover, in this city where mortals live, the demons should also restrain their actions a lot.

Thinking of this, Hu Yimeng turned around and was about to walk to the bedside.

Suddenly, her feet, which she had just raised, stopped in mid-air.
