Chapter 146 The Mysterious Moon Tower
Cuiliu and Sun Wen entered the house.
“Let's go.”
Liu Qin suddenly spoke.
Cuiliu was stunned at first, but quickly took out the letter Su Leyun had prepared from her arms and handed it to Liu Qin.
“Miss Liu, this is what our lady wrote to you.”
Liu Qin took the letter. There were only a few lines of words on it, but her expression changed.
She folded the letter and put it in her sleeve, "I'll go with you."
“Great! Miss Liu, let's go quickly.”
Seeing Liu Qin change his mind, Cui Liu was happy and pushed the door open.
The servants who were in charge had already fainted and fell to the ground.
When the three of them arrived at the courtyard wall, Sun Wen said, "Miss Liu, I'm offended."
Sun Wen put his arm around Liu Qin's waist and jumped out with her.
There was no one on the road, so Liu Qin followed Cui Liu and Sun Wen to the back door of Su Mansion.
Chaohua Xiaozhu.
Su Leyun was sitting at the table when he heard a knock on the door.
Lian Xin opened the door, and it was Cuiliu and three others who came in.
“Miss Liu Qin.”
Su Leyun stood up and stepped forward, looked at Liu Qin to make sure she was not injured, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Ms. Su, what do you mean by what you wrote in your letter?”
Liu Qin met Su Leyun's gaze and took out the letter from his sleeve.
“Miss Liu Qin is so smart, she can't fail to understand.”
Su Leyun did not explain, but when the two looked at each other, she knew that Liu Qin could understand.
The house was dimly lit by candles.
Liu Qin sat at the table and took a deep breath, "Miss Su, why do you want to help me?"
"If I say that Miss Liu and I hit it off, I guess you won't believe it, but there is really no reason to help you. What's more, the matter has not been finalized yet, and it is not certain whether I can help you."
Su Leyun has asked people to check on the Xu family, but there is no news yet.
The only thing that can be known is that the Xu family has the support of people in the palace, and they do have a somewhat sideways attitude in the capital.
But Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu are actually peaceful people, and only their child Xu Zhian is the one who does all the bad things.
"If there is no other way, I will not involve Miss Su."
“I thought that after saving you today, the relationship between us would be closer.”
Su Leyun joked.
Liu Qin was stunned for a moment, then thought of something and said, "Can I call you Leyun? Although I am older than you, after getting along with you, I always feel that you are not much different from me in age."
“How about I call you Ah Qin?”
"good."
Liu Qin chuckled lightly.
Su Leyun was worried that the Liu family would discover Liu Qin's whereabouts, so Su Leyun did not leave Liu Qin to live in the Su family.
Instead, Sun Wen was asked to take Liu Qin to the house he had purchased before.
The next day, Su Leyun asked Cuiliu to bring a message to Mrs. Lin, telling Mrs. Lin that he would not go to the Lin Mansion today.
Then he left Su Mansion and went to Liu Qin's residence first.
“Aqin.”
Su Leyun knocked on the door.
“Leyun.”
Liu Qin quickly opened the door and welcomed Su Leyun and others in.
The house was kept clean, and Lian Xin put the breakfast she had brought on the table.
“I can't help but live here these days.”
“It's much better than being watched over at home.”
Liu Qin smiled slightly.
Su Leyun pointed at the maid who was following Cui Liu, "Lian Xin and Cui Liu are both my personal maids. It would be bad if you leave for a few days. However, I have arranged for people to be around to protect you, and the daily meals will also be provided." Someone left it at the door. If you need anything, just write it on a piece of paper and stick it outside the door."
"sorry to bother you."
"It's no trouble. Since I took you out, these things should be done."
Su Leyun looked at the sky outside. It was already bright.
"I'm going to Yuelou. I have some news about my family."
“I'll take you out.”
Liu Qin stood up and saw Su Leyun to the door.
Su Leyun looked at Liu Qin's dark eyes and said, "Go back and have a good rest. At least your parents can't find you now, and they won't force you to marry Xu Zhian."
“I got it, Leyun, thank you.”
Liu Qin blinked to hide the tears in his eyes.
Until she woke up this morning, she was in a trance, fearing that she was back home again.
But after seeing Su Leyun, this feeling of uneasiness finally dissipated.
She really came out of the house.
Cuiliu and Lianxin followed Su Leyun, sighing for a while.
“Miss Liu is so miserable.”
"That's right, no wonder the young lady looked so ugly yesterday when she found out that the man was Xu Zhian." Cuiliu frowned and shook her head, "I really don't understand why Miss Liu's parents want to marry Miss Liu to such a person."
“Although the Xu family is not very powerful, it is extremely rich and is still a popular candidate for the imperial business this year. The Liu family does not dare to offend such a person.”
Su Leyun explained.
But the next second, Su Leyun stopped.
Looking up at the pavilion not far away.
“Miss, is that the Yue Tower?”
Cuiliu and Lianxin glanced at each other, then quickly looked away, not daring to look any further.
Even though it was daytime, they could not see the decoration of these pavilions.
Isn't this a brothel?
Why is that moon tower in a place like this?
Su Leyun learned about Yuelou from Sun Wen, and knew that as long as he could afford the money, he could find out anything.
That's why I made a special trip to Yue Tower.
Looking at the surrounding buildings, she also became a little confused.
“Put on your veil and let's go over and have a look.”
Sun Wen should not have given the wrong address. Su Leyun thought for a moment, covered the veil, and then walked away.
Lianxin and Cuiliu looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
The gate of Yue Tower is closed, and there is no plaque hanging on it.
But Su Leyun found the moon-shaped mark that Sun Wen mentioned and determined that this was the Moon Tower.
She stepped forward and knocked on the door lightly, then twice.
As soon as Su Leyun put down his hand, the door opened.
Even in daylight, the house is dark.
"anyone there?"
Su Leyun shouted, but there was no response.
“Miss, please go in first.”
Cuiliu suggested.
Su Leyun thought for a while, "Let's come in together."
This moon building is particularly weird.
Su Leyun entered the building, and Lian Xin and Cuiliu hurriedly followed.
The door was quietly closed.
The room suddenly lit up.
An old man stood at the foot of the stairs with a stooped body, "You three, please come this way."
“I'm here to…”
“Everyone who comes to Yue Tower is here to check the news. Miss, please go upstairs.”
The old man interrupted Su Leyun. Then he lifted his legs and stepped up the stairs.
Su Leyun didn't say anything more and followed the old man upstairs.
The second floor is also bright.
Su Leyun then realized that the bright light was emitted by night pearls and was surrounded by walls.
When you look at the house from outside, you can see that it has windows.
“Miss, please come this way.”
The old man stood in front of a door and bowed to signal.
The layout of the house is extremely complicated. There are several small semicircular passages on the wall, which seem to be able to transport something.
