Chapter 507: Gradually clear
"Come in."
It's big night, there's nothing wrong, and your subordinates won't come up to disturb you. Even Meng Hao is a guy who knows it. He won't go up to the second floor after eight o'clock in the evening.
"Sir, Madam is here too?" Yan Lei pushed the door open and nodded slightly when he saw Meng Fanxing.
"You guys talk, I'll go back to my room first." Meng Fanxing took the initiative to say to Lu Xiyan, "Xiyan, it's too late to work."
"knew."
After Meng Fanxing left the study and brought it to the door, Yan Lei said: "Sir, Kunpeng called, Dai Yunong arrested Sun Yanan's fiancée, the woman named Xiao Mudan. Their intention was to use this woman to control Sun Yanan so that she could not betray the Military Control Commission?"
"Do you believe it?"
"I also think it's unbelievable. Not to mention whether this little Mudan is Sun Yanan's fiancée, even if it's just a woman, can he control him?" Lu Xiyan said, "Dai Yunnong is not a three-year-old child. Will he be so childish?"
"Maybe there is really a relationship between Sun Yanan and this little peony?"
"The military commander's family rules are not allowed to get married during the War of Resistance and Saving the Country. With this, Sun Yanan has already violated the family rules. Dai Yunong detained the little peony just to facilitate contact with Sun Yanan." Lu Xiyan said, "If you want to say that these two people have true feelings, I really don't believe it."
"Where is the telegram?"
"Oh, here." Yan Lei's hand that had just come in, saw Meng Fanxing subconsciously stuffed the message into his pocket, forgetting to give it to Lu Xiyan.
The content of the telegram was not long. In addition to briefly describing Sun Yanan's situation, Chu Ze also attached his own judgment on Sun Yanan.
I feel like three words: There is a problem.
Although he had no flaws in his response to answering questions, he always felt that if the military advisor chose to be an undercover agent like this, it would be a mistake.
Of course, no one said that they would definitely not make mistakes when they knew people. Besides, people would change. The military commander's large dye vat could still maintain their true colors when they entered. That is not an ordinary person.
"I called Kunpeng back and said that the matter of saving people needs long-term considerations. Sun Yanan cannot continue to stay in Hong Kong. Give him some freedom appropriately and arrange for him to return to Shanghai as soon as possible." Lu Xiyan thought carefully and said.
"clear."
"Also, has the cobbler arrived?"
"I just arrived and I have received a call from the cobbler. I am about to report to you." Yan Lei nodded.
"Let the cobbler be familiar with his work as soon as possible. Hong Kong will be a transit station for our intelligence information in the future. His location is very important. Do not be careless in all actions, be careful in everything, and listen to Kunpeng's opinions more." Lu Xiyan ordered.
"yes."
"By the way, I asked you to inquire about the silver makeup knife. Will there be any result?" Lu Xiyan suddenly remembered and asked.
"There is a clue. I secretly asked several antique calligraphy and painting shop owners. They said that although this kind of silver makeup knife is not a rare object, it is not common here. The pattern of the azalea on the hilt of the knife should be a beautiful meaning. This kind of knife itself has the purpose of self-defense or suicide. In ancient times, women wear it more, but it is rare now. It is decorated more often. Depending on the material, if it is gold and silver, it is worth some money. They said that this thing is only about three or four hundred years, and it will not exceed six hundred years!"
"After saying so much, it's all nonsense, and there's nothing useful." Lu Xiyan said.
"Sir, this silver makeup knife has been very popular among the Koreans in the past four hundred years. Generally, when girls become adults, their mothers will give her such a knife. In addition to self-defense, they also prevent the loss of cerebralty, so it is also called a cerebral knife." Yan Lei hurriedly explained.
"Korean people?"
Lu Xiyan thought of the kimchi jar, which was also purchased from a kimchi shop run by a North Korean.
In this way, the true identity of this dancer named "Little Mudan" is probably a Korean woman.
"I understand, you go down and rest."
"Yes, sir."
...
The next morning, Lu Xiyan got up early and moved his body in the garden. Old Ma was sweeping the bluestone road in the garden with a broom.
He, a gardener, not only cared about the pruning and cultivation of flowers and plants, but also the hygiene in the big garden and some miscellaneous work at home.
The two little girls Axiang and Xiaole are similar in age. Compared to this, Axiang is still younger, but the two girls are secretly competing.
They each occupy a piece of open space in the garden to practice.
This is a pleasing scenery in Lu Mansion, a young and energetic figure, who feels uncomfortable when he sees it.
"Sir, yesterday I looked through the books on flower and tree cultivation, and asked some old guys about it. Finally, I knew what kind of cuckoo on the hilt was." Lao Ma swept to Lu Xiyan's heels and stopped and said.
"Oh?" Lu Xiyan took his eyes from the two agile figures.
"The scientific name is Yinghong Azalea, also known as Xing'an Azalea. It grows in the area of Xing'an Mountains in Inner Mongolia and Liaodong. It has a long flowering period and is also called infinite flowers. It blooms from June to September every year, symbolizing steadfastness, tenacity, and not fearing hardships..."
"Old Ma, thank you for your hard work."
"Sir, will this help you?" Lao Ma asked.
"Help, it's so helpful." Lu Xiyan smiled. Combined with what Yan Lei and Lao Ma found out, it can basically be confirmed that this "little peony" Han Caiying is a Korean living in the Liaodong Peninsula. Of course, it is not yet certain where she is.
But it is certain that this woman must have come from outside the gates.
So the question is, how did she get along with Sun Yanan? And, what unknown secret does Han Caiying have with Liu He?
The outside of the pass has been occupied by the Japanese, so it is so difficult to find such a person.
In view of this, Lu Xiyan basically gave up the idea of finding Han Caiying's true identity, but her origin is definitely not simple. Unfortunately, he still has too little information to accurately judge the real origin of Han Caiying.
"Hey, what are you doing? Why did you fight well..."
The two girls who disliked each other finally had conflicts. I don’t know who took the lead, so they started fighting directly on the lawn in the garden.
Meng Fanxing saw this scene upstairs and rushed downstairs, trying to go over and pull the two of them apart, but Lu Xiyan grabbed them.
"Xiyan, what are you doing? The two of them are fighting?"
"Make them older, these two girls are arrogant and arrogant. Haven't you seen them dislike each other everywhere?" Lu Xiyan said, "It's better to fight. As the saying goes, you won't know each other without fighting."
"Yes, sister, if we men don't like each other, we fight." Meng Hao grabbed an apple in his hand and walked out of the house with a smile, looking like he was watching the show.
"Haozi, have a bet, who do you think can win the two of them?" Lu Xiyan smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his voice was very loud.
"Brother-in-law, how do you bet?"
"How about the loser washes the underwear and socks for the winner for a month?" Lu Xiyan said provocatively from Meng Hao.
"Tsk, I won't bet with you. If I win, my sister will help you, I'm not that stupid." Meng Hao snorted.
Meng Fanxing glanced at Meng Hao, and said with a heart-wrenching look that he didn't even love this younger brother in vain and knew to look at him.
"Haozi, this kind of clumsy aggression is useless to me." Lu Xiyan smiled and said, "I tell you, if I lose, I will wash your underwear and socks for a month with my own hands?"
"This is what you said, brother-in-law." Meng Hao laughed, looking like a small conspiracy succeeded, "Sister, Brother Yan Lei, Brother Fifth and Old Ma, you have heard of it. Will you give me a testimony at that time?"
"Well, Xiaowu, you just took a bite of the bun..."
"Is that so? I'll go back and finish the buns. It's a waste." Ma Xiaowu made a surprised expression and said, but his feet didn't move at all, and his eyes were even staring at the two girls who fists and feet.
"Old Ma?"
"Ah, Mr. Hao, what did you say?"
"One of them, what are you afraid of? I have no backbone, hum!" Meng Hao spat.
"Okay, I proposed the bet, and I set the bet. You are still afraid that I will not be able to lose money. Besides, isn't your sister still there?" Lu Xiyan smiled.
"Sister, you won't be with your brother-in-law, right?"
"Marry a chicken and follow the chicken, marry a dog and follow the dog, what do you think?" Meng Fanxing gave Meng Hao a blank look.
"It's over, it's over, does this family still have human rights?" Meng Hao sighed to the sky.
"Ha ha……"
"Haozi, do you want to bet?" Lu Xiyan asked with a smile.
"Why not bet? Just as you said, the loser washes his underwear and socks for a month until the other party agrees." Meng Hao is not a person who easily admits defeat and gives in.
"Okay, don't say that my brother-in-law bullies you, A Xiang and Xiaole, you choose one first, I choose the other." Lu Xiyan pointed to the two girls who were still fighting fiercely on the lawn and said.
"This is what you said, don't regret it, brother-in-law." Meng Hao said very seriously with the word "brother-in-law".
"I said, I don't regret it." Lu Xiyan smiled, "Your sister and so many people can testify."
"Okay, I, I choose A Xiang!" Meng Hao said without hesitation, pointing at A Xiang who was prevailing in the field.
A Xiang has been practicing martial arts since she was a child and has rich experience in fighting. In this family, except for Yan Lei who can suppress her, it is not easy for the rest of the people to defeat her.
Ma Xiaowu is pretty good, almost the same as Meng Hao, but he is not A Xiang's opponent. After suffering losses, he basically goes around when he meets A Xiang.
"I've chosen it, and now I have another chance to repent?"
"I've chosen it, I won't regret it!" Seeing A Xiang hit Xiaoli's left shoulder with a punch, Xiaole grinned in pain, and the painful expression on her face made people feel heartbreaking.
Meng Hao felt that he was hesitating and chose A Xiang firmly.
"Since you chose Axiang, I can only choose Xiaole." Lu Xiyan said with a smile.
"Brother-in-law, if you lose, you have to wash your underwear?" Meng Hao reminded proudly.
"Don't worry, when my brother-in-law was studying in France alone, I always washed my clothes myself." Lu Xiyan said with a smile.
Yan Lei shook his head slightly, Meng Hao was still a little tender. In terms of martial arts, Xiaole is of course not as good as A Xiang, who has been practicing martial arts since childhood. However, Xiaole is older than A Xiang and has rich combat experience, especially practical experience, which is obtained by experiencing countless life and death tests.
Xiaole knew that if she wanted to win quickly, she would not be A Xiang's opponent, so she chose to show her weakness to consume her opponent's physical strength.
Therefore, it seems that A Xiang has the upper hand, but in fact, A Xiang's physical energy consumption is far greater than her.
Lu Xiyan had long seen this, but Meng Hao did not notice it. He just saw the appearance of A Xiang having the upper hand.
Of course, Xiaole is actually pretending to be a disguise. After all, A Xiang is not so easy to be deceived. Meng Hao didn't notice it and couldn't say that he had no eyesight at all. Instead, he had some preconceived ideas and agreed with A Xiang's combat power. Seeing that she had the upper hand again, he naturally believed that she would win.
Lu Xiyan and Yan Lei both understand Xiaole, so when they watch it, they become more objective.
Meng Fanxing seemed to notice something was wrong. After carefully looking at the two women's fight, he also found a clue. Xiaole was always saving his physical strength, which induced A Xiang to consume his physical strength.
He glanced at his proud younger brother Meng Hao and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
