As soon as the three words "Old Cangtou" hit his ears, Xu Yi's mind was racing, and he suddenly recalled that when he left Imperial Library, Old Cangtou had asked him inexplicably from whom he borrowed the Guanshu Jade Tablet.

He gave his first and last name Marquis Anqing.

Of course, he didn't think much about it. He just thought that Old Cangtou was worried that he would not take care of him after he left. He told Old Cangtou that if anything happened, just leave it to Marquis Anqing.

Thinking about it afterwards, I realized that Old Cangtou was so open-minded, how could he seek a career like this?

If he really wanted to make a career, with his abilities, how could he end up in such a miserable state?

But he couldn't figure out what Old Cangtou meant by this question. If a gift was given, it could be famous and delivered in person, so why bother going around in circles like this.

He couldn't think clearly, so he didn't think about it to the end. Moreover, a series of changes made the matter disappear long ago.

Today, someone suddenly came under the name Old Cangtou and said he was summoned. Isn't it strange?

"It's just a thousand pieces of gold. Why are you shouting? I went to the accounting office to collect it. Even if I present it to you, I would never dare to shout here."

Head Butler speaks harshly.

Thinking about where he was, the middle-aged strong man suddenly lost his arrogance and muttered, "It's not like someone is forcing you. If you don't want to send me back, it's the end of it." However, he was not slow at his feet. Under the leadership of the servant in green, he walked very fast.

"Wait a minute!"

Xu Yi glanced at Head Butler lightly, strode forward and handed over a gold ticket worth thousands of gold, "I am the person you are looking for, Head Butler can prove it."

Seeing the golden ticket, the middle-aged man's eyes suddenly brightened up. Wherever he needed proof, this was the golden ticket. At that moment, he took the golden ticket and handed over a red square box.

Xu Yi took the square box without opening it and put it into Sumeru Ring. Before he could say thanks, the middle-aged man had already gone far away.

Xu Yi secretly said Old Cangtou has a sharp vision and is well versed in people's hearts.

You must have put a lot of effort into choosing a person to deliver the message, otherwise you wouldn't have picked someone who has a little bit of foundation but happens to be able to scare the Marquis Anqing government. In this way, you can ensure that the thing you send will not be swallowed up.

Secondly, this middle-aged strong man is obviously a rough and rude man. He only recognizes money and has little regard for other things.

He didn't know what Old Cangtou had given him, and he was going in such a big circle, but at the moment he didn't have the intention to think too much, all his thoughts were focused on Old Cangtou.

This time he met Old Cangtou again, and his respect remained unchanged, but he clearly felt that Old Cangtou was thinking too much.

The master's heart is the slave's will, and he is consistent. The changes in Old Cangtou are not scary, but he cannot help but pay attention to the changes in Marquis Anqing.

When the matter was over, he pretended to say goodbye, but his perception was completely relaxed.

Sure enough, Old Cangtou sent him out and saw him walking away, muttering, "It's not my fault, it's not my fault..."

Not long after, someone said, "Head Butler, the Marquis ordered you to go."

Xu Yi, who had already walked thirty feet away, frowned suddenly.

If the old housekeeper's abnormality before only aroused his suspicion, then what he heard now confirmed that Marquis Anqing had second thoughts.

He couldn't figure out what happened that made Marquis Anqing act like this.

The last time we met, Marquis Anqing was still treating him in every possible way. Could it be that he had a change of heart after getting the boundary card?

Xu Yi would not think so. Moreover, Marquis Anqing also asked him to look after the Gao Family's hope seeds to break through this world. How could he change his mind now?

With a sudden thought in his mind, he turned around and headed back towards the Marquis Anqing mansion.

This matter was so important that if he didn't get it straightened out, he wouldn't be able to feel at ease, let alone the six Xiong Kui brothers who were still in Marquis Anqing's house.

After he left and returned, the two teams of servants guarding the entrance came out to lead the team. They were about to go inside to report, but were stopped by Xu Yi, "I have something to explain to the old housekeeper, so there is no need to alarm."

He was so used to coming and going that even Marquis Anqing was treated as a guest of honor, and Marquis Anqing was his guest. He built a lot of construction in the garden, and even the most precious sea of flowers were moved to the ground, which shows the precious status of Xu Yi.

Moreover, Head Butler repeatedly warned the servants in the mansion that Xu Yi behaves like a marquis.

At this moment, Xu Yi speaks, how dare all the slaves disobey.

Xu Yi stepped through the door, feeling like a tide Shui Yi, and let it go outwards, with him as the center, sweeping out a circle of perception with a radius of sixty feet.

Not long after, they sensed the presence of Marquis Anqing and Head Butler. At this moment, they were in the front yard, while Marquis Anqing and Head Butler were still in the backyard.

But when he heard a creaking sound on the door, Head Butler knelt down and slapped himself hard twice, "This slave is incompetent. Someone came to deliver a message to Mr. Xu. It happened that Mr. Xu was here, so I intercepted it myself."

Hearing this, Xu Yi understood that Marquis Anqing had an explanation for Head Butler about him. Otherwise, how could Head Butler take the initiative to intercept the letter.

"Trash!"

Marquis Anqing slammed the table, "Do you know what it is and where it came from?"

Head Butler said, "A Qing in the front yard stopped the person who sent the letter and asked clearly. It was Imperial Library. The person who sent the letter was the famous Old Cangtou. In my old slave's opinion, I'm afraid if Mr. Xu joins Imperial Library and has made friends with Old Cangtou, then Old Cangtou can help answer questions."

Marquis Anqing searched the memory silently and found out the information of Imperial Library Old Cangtou. It was a pity secretly. With this little thief's secret practice, it must be a difficult question to solve. If I intercepted it, I would know the little thief's current cultivation level. Even if it doesn't work, I would be able to get a glimpse of the truth. It's hateful, hateful, really hateful.

Ghost Master's fear of Xu Yi is deep. He is not only afraid of Xu Yi's cunning and cunning as a fox, but also afraid of Xu Yi's endless tricks.

Ghost Master prides himself on his own cultivation, even if he faces Mid Soul Sensing Stage Old Ancestor, he will definitely win in a one-on-one situation.

But he never had the courage to face Xu Yi directly. Firstly, he was afraid that he would not be able to catch Xu Yi, and more importantly, he was afraid of being tormented by the layers of exotic treasures on Xu Yi.

Head Butler raised his eyes to take a peek, but saw Marquis Anqing's brows were cloudy and uncertain, and the doubts in his heart were like a stormy sea.

He really couldn't understand why his master had such a huge contrast between before and after. He had been thinking about it so much before, telling the whole house, and worshiping the Mr. Xu as his master, how could it suddenly change.

If it weren't for Marquis Anqing's flawless arrangements for the people and everything in the house, Head Butler would have thought that his master was possessed by a monster.

Marquis Anqing sensed Head Butler's small movements, coughed lightly and said, "I know you are suspicious, but you only need to know that there are no long-term friends, only long-term interests. Mr. Xu and I are just friends of interest. After the transaction is completed, it is normal to have some incestuous feelings. But if others also have transactions with me, they may not be able to put Mr. Xu aside."

Although he is a small person, Head Butler has access to Guan Quan's house. If he makes him suspicious, it will be a big trouble. Marquis Anqing just explained it.

Unexpectedly, his unintentional explanation was intercepted by Xu Yi, but it completely misled Xu Yi, making him think that Marquis Anqing had abandoned him for the benefit of others.

I just realized that I didn't send it out and it was stuck in the draft box. Sorry!
