Xianyu Infrastructure, I have a lot of troops in my hands
Chapter 180 Late Night Visit
The moon was full and the stars were sparse tonight, but Xie Xian was not sleepy at all. She flipped through the folder in her hand, which contained the information collected by the Black Stone Guard in Xiaoquan Village.
There is nothing special about the dozen people in the Wang family.
But seeing the abnormality of Old Man Wang and Wang Zhiwu today, she felt that this matter was not simple. The Black Stone Guards mostly started with the villagers, so the information was very scattered and there was not much valuable information.
Thinking of Wang Zhiwu's identity as a police official, Xie Xian narrowed her eyes. The report showed that the Wang family had settled in Xiaoquan Village for only more than 20 years, and their lives had not improved much, except that they suddenly became rich in recent years.
And every time he makes money, it's very strange. He either picks it up or digs it up, just like a koi fish in the world. It's so weird.
She thought about it and decided that she had to go to Koizumi Village tomorrow to deal with the girls' school matters, so she had to find someone to ask clearly today.
You Chun was working overtime late at night by candlelight. Ying Yi had just come over to change the medicine for his wounds. After half a month of recuperation, the wounds on his chest and abdomen were almost healed.
During the day, he is busy working as a steward of the Xie family in the mine, and at night he is still the decisive and murderous master of Yanlou.
Tomorrow is the mid-month meeting, so in order to get there early, he returned to the Xie family's land and asked for a guest room in the outer courtyard to rest. However, he did not expect that someone would knock on the door so late at night.
When he opened the door, he saw Xie Xian wearing only a single layer of clothes, and You Chun's pupils shrank sharply.
He turned his head. As the head of Yanlou Hall, he had the temperament of a man who remained calm even when faced with a mountain collapse. Now he felt a little depressed.
You Chun whispered, "My Lady."
"I have something to talk to you about. Let's talk inside!" Xie Xian didn't feel anything was wrong.
You Chun stood there in a daze for a while, his mind was a mess at the moment, and he stiffly moved aside to make way.
Xie Xian sighed as she walked. It wasn't easy for her either. In an era without WeChat, if she wanted her employees to work overtime, the boss had to come to their homes in person. It was annoying.
She looked around and saw many notebooks scattered on the table. She knew that her employees were working overtime late at night, and she couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
My employees are still very responsible.
At this late hour, she didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "Do you know the situation of the villages around Que County?"
In her impression, You Chun was particularly well-informed about news from all over the place.
Xie Xian explained the situation in Xiaoquan Village in a few words. What Xie Xian mainly wanted to know was how Wang Zhiwu got the position of a police official.
She knew that in the ancient society where connections were important, some people would definitely use their connections to get an official position, but what kind of connections did the Wang family use to make a living?
Xie Xian felt that You Chun, who had traveled all over the country, might know about these things.
After hearing Xie Xian's intention, You Chun breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was a false alarm, and then felt a little disappointed.
Sitting next to the low table, You Chun picked up the small purple gold pot and rubbed it gently.
He slowly said, "As you said, this Wang family doesn't seem to be very clean."
When disaster strikes some place, people from all walks of life will take it as an opportunity to make a fortune from the refugees, and the most rampant among them are the human traffickers.
"This matter is very simple to verify. We just need to find out the time when they got the wealth, and we will know." After all, disasters have occurred frequently in recent years. If someone really is taking advantage of the situation, it is normal.
Xie Xian's eyes lit up. This was a good idea.
She guessed that the Wang family was not a good family, and the old headman was very worried about the Wang family's private school, so she thought he knew something.
"Very good, I'll have someone check it out tomorrow." It would be easy now that we have a direction. "Thank you, You Dalang. I won't bother you any more in this case."
Xie Xian had a clue in her mind and felt relieved. It was getting late. Although the handsome man in front of her was wearing a dark robe and had his hair tied up in a light bun, which made people want to take a second look, she still wanted to go back to sleep.
But what he didn't know was that for You Chun, Xie Xian had taken off the red robe that she usually wore, and was wearing a light moon-white single garment, with her hair loosely tied into a bun at the back.
She no longer had the bright and flamboyant look she had during the day, but instead had a hint of gentleness that made You Chun dare not look up at her any longer.
After Xie Xian left, Ying Yi rolled over from the eaves and landed on the ground: "My Lord, the Lady of the Xie Family didn't find anything, did she?"
He looked towards the desk with some concern.
It was late at night, and the master began to deal with the affairs of Yanlou. However, since working for the lady of the Xie family, the master has been handling things faster and with ease.
When Ying Yi approached, he saw that You Chun was sitting next to the low table, and his favorite purple gold pot was placed on the table.
His eyes were staring blankly out the door, wondering what he was thinking about.
Ying Yi sighed. His master would act strangely every time he encountered something related to the lady of the Xie family, and he didn't understand.
Xie Xian wanted to ask more questions, but seeing You Chun's stiff expression, she realized that she was being a bit abrupt, so she simply left after asking about the Wang family.
Walking on the path in the courtyard, Xie Xian rubbed her face. She had been living too smoothly during this period of time, and she even almost forgot that this was the ancient times where men and women were strictly separated. However, You Chun was her own person.
It shouldn’t matter, right!
Little did they know that the next day, the news of Xie Xian's late-night visit to Deacon You's residence was leaked by someone with ulterior motives.
But everyone in the Xie family had an odd feeling of relief that their daughter had grown up. As for Xie Xian's status, everyone felt that it would be fine even if they had a few more beauties to give to the queen.
In this era, although women were bound by rules, there were always some exceptions, such as Princess Jiyang, whose fief was not large and relied entirely on her male lovers to govern it. There was also the wealthy widow Qian, who had a lot of resources and was naturally surrounded by handsome men.
Therefore, Xie Xian did have a theoretical basis for her bold statement about having three husbands and four concubines.
At this moment, Zhi Mo looked inside Baoshu Hall with some worry, drove away Xie Xiuyuan and the other person who were waiting at the door, and then stood guard at the door.
This morning, during the routine report, the matter of the young master's second room came up. When he heard that Madam Xian had stayed in the outer men's room for a cup of tea at night, his young master's face turned unhappy.
Xie An in the room had no expression at this moment. He always knew that Xie Xian avoided him, but he didn't expect Xie Xian to be so self-degrading.
Yes, in Xie An's opinion, the master of Yanlou Hall was just a leader of the rat world, and in the eyes of the aristocratic families, he was just a tool for cleaning up garbage.
If you don't like it, just change it. I really don't like it.
So to Xie An, You Chun was really not worthy of being in the spotlight, but he knew in his heart that Xie Xian was different from him, and that Xie Xian's current status was achieved step by step.
If the Black Stone Guards are given huge benefits, even the proud and powerful generals will bow down to them. No matter who is in charge of the Black Stone Guards, as long as they don't give as much as Xie Xian, they are nothing.
All the major families are trying to avoid this, and some people from various military families in the martial arts world are preparing to join the Black Stone Guards.
But this is not enough to prove anything. Xie Xian was tactful in the use and mining of the Wu Shi Mine. Just yesterday, she received a letter from Kang Jian, and the young ladies were still laughing at Xie Xian, saying that she only knew how to please her master.
