Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost
Chapter 313 Wedding Invitation
The next morning, Lu Xunhuan woke up and went downstairs to wash up.
Zixia was already waiting there. When she saw him coming, she immediately came forward and said, "Supreme Treasure, did you sleep well?"
Lu Xunhuan nodded: "Yeah, I slept well."
He dropped the bucket and went to get some water: "You woke up so early?"
Zixia squatted down at the edge of the well: "I'm waiting for you."
Lu Xunhuan smiled: "You are so nice."
He said, "After breakfast, I have to go to the Changzhou City branch of the Immortal Friends Association. Wait for me. I will come back and treat you to lunch at noon."
Zixia held her face in her hands: "Is that so? I'm still thinking about whether I should go with you to investigate the case."
Lu Xun Huan said, "You're not a member of the Xia Lou, so what case are you investigating? Be obedient and wait for me to come back."
Zixia nodded: "Okay."
When they went to the cafeteria to eat breakfast, Qingxia came over with her bowl of rice and asked Lu Xunhuan, "Do you need me to go with you today?"
Lu Xunhuan said, "I'm going to ask Zhu Tianpeng about some confidential matters today, so you don't have to go for the time being."
Qingxia nodded: "Okay."
After saying that, she walked away with her bowl of rice.
Zixia looked at Qingxia's back and said, "My sister doesn't seem very happy."
Lu Xunhuan said, "She's just like that."
Zixia nodded: "It seems so."
She peeled the egg and put it in Lu Xunhuan's bowl: "Eat more and solve the case as soon as possible."
Lu Xunhuan smiled: "Thank you."
After an incense stick of time, he had arrived at the Changzhou City branch of the Immortal Friends Association.
When Zhu Tianpeng saw him, he asked, "Why haven't I seen you for several days?"
Lu Xun Huan replied, "I recently had a very difficult case, so I went to the Northern Province."
He asked Zhu Tianpeng, "I left, and I don't know if Elder Ye has looked for me?"
Zhu Tianpeng said: "I'm afraid there won't be any."
He took out a big red wedding invitation: "It's for you."
Lu Xun Huan took the wedding invitation in great surprise: "No way, she's..."
Zhu Tianpeng smiled and said, "She's a master of the White Crane Sect. She's wealthy and well-known, and she's also beautiful. As long as she's willing to marry, there's no need for her to marry."
Lu Xunhuan opened the wedding invitation and looked at the names of the bride and groom.
The bride is naturally Ye Yayun.
The groom, Chu Tiankuo?
Xi Chu, the surname Chu is the royal name, who is Chu Tiankuo, a prince or a prince?
Zhu Tianpeng said: "Marrying the Fifth Prince is a good destination for her. She will have endless money to spend, endless happiness to enjoy, and most importantly, power."
Lu Xunhuan was surprised again. It turned out that this Chu Tiankuo was actually the Fifth Prince?
He smiled and said, "That's great, congratulations to her."
Zhu Tianpeng added, "She was very considerate and said that since you work at Xialou, your income might not be very high, so just give her face and attend her wedding. You don't need to bring any gifts."
Lu Xun Huan nodded: "You are quite considerate. You know I am poor. Fine, then, I will only bring my mouth."
He said to Zhu Tianpeng: "Brother Tianpeng, I have never been to the Fifth Prince's Mansion. You can take me there when the time comes."
Zhu Tianpeng said: "I have never been there either. Let's go together when the time comes."
Lu Xun Huan asked again, "Besides Elder Ye's matter, is there anything else happening with the Celestial Friends Association these days?"
Zhu Tianpeng sighed and lowered his voice: "The president showed up. He went to Taiqingmen and captured a hostage, but he told those people from Taiqingmen to come to our Changzhou City branch when the time comes..."
"What if all the experts come out and attack aggressively? If we don't agree..."
He shook his head: "I'm a little panicked. I'm afraid they'll be unreasonable after they come..."
Lu Xun Huan said, "I don't think so. They also have to consider the safety of the hostages. By the way, have you met the president? Have you handed the hostages over to you?"
Zhu Tianpeng said, "No, I've only heard his voice but never seen him. I only know that he took a hostage and told me to wait for the Taiqing Sect to come. As for the rest, I know nothing."
Lu Xunhuan secretly thought that this was troublesome. He didn’t know where the person was hiding, so how could he save him?
After a moment of contemplation, he pretended to be relaxed and said, "When you spread the news, you probably didn't expect it to be like this."
Zhu Tianpeng smiled bitterly and said, "I thought the president would get the news and go to Taiqingmen to solve the problem, but I didn't expect everyone from Taiqingmen to hide."
The two chatted for a while, then Lu Xunhuan said goodbye and returned to the Xia Tower.
As soon as he entered the Xia Building, Xiao Li stopped him and said, "Supreme Jade, Captain Ma wants to see you. He's in the backyard."
Lu Xunhuan responded and went to the backyard.
There were already four people sitting in the pavilion.
When Zixia saw him coming back, she greeted him in surprise: "Supreme Treasure, you are back, come quickly."
Lu Xun Huan walked to the pavilion and sat down: "Do you want to report again? It's still progressing."
Captain Ma said, "As for the case of Mr. Zhuang's lost treasure, I don't think there will be much progress for a while. It's not worth wasting such a skilled hand like yours. So, I'll give you another case, and you will be responsible for both."
Lu Xunhuan nodded: "Okay."
Captain Ma said to Qingxia, "Qingxia, tell us about the case."
Qingxia said, "This morning, just after you left the house, a maid came to your door in a mysterious manner and said that her master had asked you to help investigate a case."
"As for what the case is, I want you to go see her master and he will tell you in person."
Lu Xun Huan asked, "Why is it like this again?"
Qingxia said, "Perhaps it's difficult to find the government office for this matter, so you have no choice but to come to us. Up to now, we still don't know who specifically asked you to go."
Captain Ma took over and said, "The place they arranged to meet you is not in the mansion. At 5 p.m., the owner of that house will go to the Xianzu Temple to burn incense. You should also go there, and someone will naturally come to contact you."
Qingxia added: "People ask you to wear ordinary clothes, and when you meet them, they may only say a few words."
Lu Xun Huan stood up and said, "It's not the hour of the day. Time is a bit tight. Zixia, let's go and have lunch."
After the two men left, Captain Ma said, "It's only now, and we're about to have lunch?"
Pan Long took over the conversation: "They are treating Zixia to a big dinner."
Captain Ma said to Qingxia, "Let your sister go home and stop causing trouble here."
Qingxia said, "She had a fight with my father and ran all the way back to Changzhou City. How could I chase her away?"
Captain Ma stood up and said, "Your father is such a jerk. He's such a big general, but he can't even take care of his daughter."
Qingxia said dissatisfiedly: "What are you saying? Have I caused you any trouble?"
Captain Ma chuckled and said, "I'm not talking about you. I'm talking about Zixia, you're naughty."
Lu Xunhuan went back to the building, changed into casual clothes, and took Zixia with him. Instead of eating near the Xia Building, he went straight to the Xianzu Temple.
After arriving, the two found a rather stylish restaurant near the Xianzu Temple and asked for a private room where one could see the Xianzu Temple from the window.
Lu Xunhuan ordered a few signature dishes, and the two of them ate and chatted while waiting for the hour of Wei to arrive.
Lu Xun Huan said, "Your family is well off, why don't you go back and live here? Xia Lou's conditions are really unfair to you."
Zixia shook her head: "There's no one at home, and I have nothing to talk about with a bunch of servants and maids. I'm so bored."
"Hey," her eyes suddenly lit up: "Why don't you live in my house."
Lu Xunhuan smiled and said, "I need to investigate a case, so it would be more convenient to stay in Xialou."
Zixia said, "Why don't you just go back once a day?"
Lu Xun Huan looked out the window and said, "Your sister doesn't live at home to facilitate her investigations. It would be inappropriate for me to stay at your house."
Zixia smiled and said, "That's true."
At noon, Lu Xunhuan saw through the window a gorgeous carriage parked in front of the Xianzu Temple.
He didn't know if it was his client, but the appointed time had arrived.
He asked Zixia to wait in the private room, while he left the restaurant and went to the Xianzu Temple.
Soon, he entered the gate of the Xianzu Temple, pretending to be a pilgrim, bought a few incense sticks, and walked in slowly, one level at a time.
When he was almost at the deepest part of the Immortal Ancestor Temple, a woman beside him whispered, "Behind the left wall."
Then the woman hurried away.
Lu Xunhuan took a step and walked to the left. There were trees and the wall behind it was indeed a quiet and nice place.
When he turned around, he saw a woman wearing a black cloak with her back to him, seemingly admiring the carvings on the wall.
He walked over and pretended to look at the carvings: "I, Supreme Jade, have never seen such exquisite carvings since I was a child."
When the woman heard him introduce himself, she turned around and said softly, "I'm Princess Manman, and I suspect my husband has a woman outside."
"Follow him. Record the time, location, and identity of the other party. I give you one month. If you succeed, you will receive five thousand taels of silver."
She took out a silver note worth one thousand taels and handed it to Lu Xunhuan: "Deposit, don't tell anyone about this except you, including Captain Ma, Qingxia and others. Absolutely not allowed."
Then she left.
Lu Xunhuan pretended to look at the carving for a while before leaving.
This is all the information the other party gave him, Princess Manman.
He didn't know who Princess Manman was, which prince's daughter she was, or where Princess Manman was.
Now there is only this one piece of information, and he has to find the rest himself.
But Princess Manman didn't let him tell anyone, so who could he ask?
Perhaps Princess Manman thought that based on her fame, Lu Xunhuan should know who her husband is and where she lives.
Therefore, she thought that giving Lu Xunhuan this information was enough.
