Chapter 221 Crack
Chapter 221: Decipher

Ye Xuan was hugging Caidie and Nianwei on both sides and sleeping soundly.

Suddenly, his sharp five senses woke him up from his sleep. When he opened his eyes, he saw a beautiful figure walking towards the bed.

With the help of the moonlight coming in from outside the door, Ye Xuan recognized the person as Qian'er at a glance.

However, Qian'er, who had just left in the evening, was now pale and had bloodstains on her body.

Ye Xuan was startled and immediately jumped up from the bed.

"Qian'er, what's wrong with you?"

When he stood in front of Qian'er, Ye Xuan discovered that Qian'er's delicate shoulders were also covered with blood. Looking down along her shoulders, he discovered that her back was also covered with dense scars.

"Did Hu Weiyong do it?" Ye Xuan's eyes turned cold, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his words.

Qian'er nodded, tears welled up in her eyes, and suddenly she threw herself into Ye Xuan's arms.

Turning his head to look at the two beauties lying on the bed, Ye Xuan was a little embarrassed. He picked up Qian'er and walked out the door.

However, as soon as he went out, he found a middle-aged woman standing at the door, looking at him with embarrassment on her face.

Qian'er stopped crying immediately and introduced: "I was able to escape from the Xiangfu, all thanks to Sister Yan!"

Ye Xuan nodded, smiled at Fang Shiyan, and then said: "Let's talk about it later, let's take care of your injuries first!"

As he said this, he took the two girls to the room that originally belonged to Qian'er. After settling them down, Ye Xuan went out to find gauze and wound medicine.

Letting Qian'er lie on the bed, Ye Xuan carefully cleaned up the torn clothes bit by bit.

After a while, a body covered with scars and blood appeared in front of Ye Xuan.

"Hu Weiyong, this old beast, is so cruel!" Ye Xuan said angrily as he wiped the blood off Qian'er's back with a clean towel.

"By the way, how did you escape?"

While enduring the pain in her back, Qian'er explained the whole story in detail, not daring to leave out even the slightest bit.

After all, his identity was revealed in the evening and he left Ye Mansion.

But after only a few hours, she returned late at night with wounds all over her body. No matter how you looked at it, she seemed very suspicious. If she didn't explain clearly, Qian'er was worried that Ye Xuan would suspect her.

She has now completely severed all ties with Hu Weiyong. If even Ye Xuan doesn't want her, as an orphan, she will really have to do as Fang Shiyan said: The world is so big, where can I go?

The most important thing is that Ye Xuan is the only one in the world who is truly kind to her. Even when he found out that she was Hu Weiyong's spy and even when he found out that she wanted to kill him, he did not hurt her.

Instead, he advised her to leave Hu Weiyong and start a new life in a place where no one could find her.

I even persuaded myself to turn back.

Now that I think about it, I almost died tragically at the hands of Hu Weiyong because I didn’t listen to Ye Xuan.

After Ye Xuan listened carefully to what happened, he became furious!
"This damned old beast actually wanted to attack you! I will never let him off. Qian'er, just wait. I will definitely avenge you!"

The assurance from her lover made Qian'er, who had just escaped, feel shy. However, Hu Weiyong was the prime minister of the dynasty, and Ye Xuan was just a small fifth-rank officer. It was a pipe dream to deal with Hu Weiyong!
On the contrary, because Ye Xuan had the stack of secret letters in his possession, he had become a thorn in Hu Weiyong's side and was in a very dangerous situation.

Oh, right, secret letter!
Qian'er's eyes lit up, she grabbed Ye Xuan's hand and said, "I can crack that stack of secret letters!"

Ye Xuan was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed.

"Sir, have you found a book called Hanshan Ji in Wang Guangyang's house?" Qian'er said.

Ye Xuan's heart moved, and he asked, "Could it be that the deciphering of these secret letters is related to this book called Han Shan Ji?"

Qian'er had just applied the medicine and couldn't turn over yet. She could only turn her head awkwardly and said to Ye Xuan, "Yes, because Hu Weiyong also has a book called Hanshanji at home. I once saw him reading a letter while flipping through the book for comparison!"

"The content of the letter is the same as the secret letters you found in Wang Guangyang's home. It contains some poems from the Book of Songs without any beginning or end. I didn't think too much about it at the time, but now I think there must be some connection between the two!"

Ye Xuan immediately stood up and wanted to go back to the Pacification Office.

Because the property confiscated from Wang Guangyang's home was temporarily deposited in the Zhenfusi Yamen and had not yet been handed over to the Ministry of Justice.

However, after taking a few steps, he suddenly realized that Qian'er was still lying on the bed with wounds all over her body. It seemed a bit heartless for him to just leave like that.

However, Qian'er, who had already regarded Ye Xuan as her life creed, would not care about such a small matter. She immediately smiled at Ye Xuan and said, "Big things are more important. Sister Yan will take care of us here, and we'll be fine!"

Ye Xuan nodded with emotion, bowed solemnly to Fang Shiyan, and said: "Then I'll have to trouble Sister Yan to help me take care of Qian'er. I will definitely repay you in the future!"

Fang Shiyan smiled charmingly and said, "Captain Ye, you don't have to be polite. If I have to repay you, first Qian'er rescued me from the sea of ​​suffering, and then I was taken in by Captain Ye. If I have to repay you, it should be me who repays you two!"

"In short, let's not talk too much about politeness. Sister Yan, you can just stay in my house for a while. Once I overthrow Hu Weiyong, you can return to Jiangnan without any worries!"

After saying this, Ye Xuan strode away.

After returning to the Zhenfu Division, Ye Xuan immediately called Song Zhengshan who was on duty, and the two went straight to the Zhenfu Division's warehouse.

It took Ye Xuan nearly half an hour to find the book of Hanshan Ji that Qian'er mentioned among Wang Guangyang's belongings.

"This book really exists. Qian'er didn't lie to me!" Ye Xuan said as he looked at the book.

"Sir, you came back to the yamen late at night just to find this book?" Seeing Ye Xuan so happy, Song Zhenshan asked puzzledly.

Ye Xuan then told Song Zhenshan that this book might be the key to deciphering the secret letter, and Song Zhenshan was also very excited.

The two hurried back to the office and began to study the book.

After studying it for a while, Ye Xuan discovered that each page of the book was much thicker than ordinary books.

So after careful observation, he found that each page of the book was made of two pieces of paper glued together. The craftsmanship was not very delicate, which was why Ye Xuan was able to discover the secret so quickly.

Perhaps the person who created this book did not expect that anyone would discover the secret of the book, so he did not hide the secret of the book too much.

That's true. There are more than a thousand books in Wang Guangyang's study. His son's book "Han Shan Ji" is an unknown travelogue. If there is no clear goal, who can discover the secrets in this book!
