Chapter 847: Fu Xiang’s short story (1)

Mei ‘er presented the small cloth bag with both hands and saluted. She said softly, “”Young master Xu, this servant will take her leave.”

“Wait!”

Xu Qi ‘an took the cloth bag, but didn’t open it. He looked at the pretty little servant girl and asked, ‘”Where is your home?”

“This servant’s home is in Jiao Shi County ,” Mei ‘er said softly.

Jiao Shi County was in the northeast of the capital. If one set off from the North and hired a carriage, they could reach it in two days.

Mei ‘er was not the descendant of an official. She was sold to the Imperial Academy by her family.

Maidservants like her who were sold to the education workshop of the capital were usually from the poor families in the capital or around the capital. It was impossible for someone to come all the way to the capital to sell their daughter. With this money, there was no need to sell their daughter.

As for her parents, they had sold her to the Academy Square out of helplessness. During the disaster that year, the whole family could barely afford to eat porridge. If they sold her, they would at least have a way out.

Even if Fu Xiang had left her some silver, the Imperial Academy would definitely extort her when she was trying to redeem herself. She was a weak woman, and if she brought back too little silver, her family would probably not treat her well

Xu Qi ‘an pondered for a moment when he saw her plain clothes. He reached into his arms and gently knocked on the mirror. He took out a Silver Note worth fifty taels and handed it to her.

“Young master Xu, I can’t take it.” Mei ‘er shook her head repeatedly.

“You and fuxiang are master and servant, so it’s only right that I do my part.” Xu Qi ‘an said with a smile.

Mei ‘er’s eyes were filled with tears, and she sobbed, “‘When Lady Fu Xiang was sick, this servant hated you in my heart, hated you for being heartless. This servant is wrong, you are a man with true feelings. Lady Fu Xiang has a poor life and no good fortune ……”

Xu Qi ‘an was a little embarrassed. He had known that Fu Xiang was seriously ill, but he had not thought of how to face her.

As for her identity, since Zhong Li pointed out that the other party’s soul was incomplete, as an old Criminal Police officer, he had connected many of his previous doubts.

For example, how did the demon race know that he was bound by luck … For example. why did the demon race hide Shen Shu’s broken hand in his house

Normally speaking, it was impossible for a person with an incomplete divine soul to be either demented or in a vegetative state for no good reason. After sending Mei ‘er off, Xu Qi’ an sat in the outer hall and opened the package.

There were two letters, a book, and a Yellow Jade Bracelet.

One of the letters was written when he went to Yunzhou and passed by Qingzhou. One was written in huangyou County, Jiang Zhou, when he was on his way to Chu Zhou to investigate the case.

Xu Qi ‘an was about to put down the bracelet and the two letters when he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He opened the letter in Qingzhou and poured out a dry and wrinkled lotus petal.

Xu Qi ‘an, who had only felt a little sad about Fu Xiang’s death, suddenly felt suffocated.

So from the start, I’ve only given you this …

He opened the letter and read it silently. The bitterness in his heart did not dissipate for a long time as he recalled his past with the courtesan.
