Chapter 17: The Son of the Long Wind

At the end of the day, night fell, the city gates were closed, and there were few pedestrians on the streets. A cyan carriage drove out of the backyard of Lin Xiangfu and headed west.

It was very quiet along the way, but when you got to Xizheng Street, it started to be full of people. Xizheng Street is the most lively street in the capital, and at the other end of Wangfu Street, it will not affect the tranquility of the palace, but also facilitate the princes and nobles to sell gold on Xizheng Street.

Tianxianglou is the most famous restaurant in the capital, it has passed the time, and it is still full.

In the Tianzi No. 1 room, which is never open in Tianxiang Building, there is a young man sitting on the main seat, and a guard is standing one step away next to him. The room is very large, and there are four large white jade bottles placed in the four corners, and I can't see what is in the bottles, but it exudes a fragrance and a trace of coolness. The main seat sits on a wide staircase, a long table of rosewood that seats four people opposite each other, and a thick white wool carpet on the floor. At the bottom of the stairs are four long tables for two people to sit together, two on the left and right, and a large open space in the middle, covered with a brocade carpet full of flowers, enough for more than ten people to dance together. Opposite the main seat, a beaded curtain separates, and there is a long case in it, on which is a guqin, also covered with a white wool carpet, and the room has maintained a very comfortable temperature for many years, and I don't know how to do it in this era without air conditioning.

"Miss, Prince Changfeng sent someone to book the second room of Tianzi, and it is said that he made an appointment with the prince of King Ning's mansion. The shopkeeper of Tianxiang Pavilion bowed down and stood at the bottom of the steps to reply.

"Shopkeeper Ji, what is the relationship between Prince Changfeng and Prince Ning?" The young man is about eleven or two years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, not tall, but his bearing is extraordinary.

"On the twentieth of this month, Ning Wang Shizi feasted Changfeng Gongzi in room No. 2 of Tianzi, which should be the first time to meet, and tonight is the second time. Shopkeeper Ji replied.

"Twenty, eight days ago?" the boy looked at the guards beside him. The guard nodded, and the boy began to ponder.

This young man is Lin Wan, who is dressed as a man, and the guards around him are Gale Wind. Liying Xiangge and Tianxianglou are now both properties under Zhao Liniang's name, Liying Xiangge was left to Lin Wan'er by Zhao Zhengxiang, and Tianxianglou was left to Lin Ruichen. Because it was handed over to Zhao Liniang before Zhao Zhengxiang returned to Shandong, it was not Zhao Liniang's dowry, so the people of the Lin family did not know. Before going to the Liying Xiangge last time, Chen's mother handed her the token in charge of the Liying Xiangge and Tianxianglou, which was a jade seal engraved with the word "Li".

Seeing Gale nodding, Lin Wan affirmed his suspicions, it seems that the prince of King Ning is the buyer of this mission of the Shadowless Pavilion, and the person behind the scenes should be the crown prince. Because Lin Wan knew that King Ning was a loyal princeling, and the prince could finally get the throne, except for the Lu family and the Lin family, the most powerful supporter was King Ning.

Hearing two knocks on the door, the shopkeeper Ji said, "It's our people." ”

Lin Wan nodded.

Shopkeeper Ji walked to the door, opened the thick carved wooden door, listened to the guy say a few words and walked back, and said, "The boy of Changfeng is here." ”

"Invite the prince of Changfeng here, and then send someone to drag the prince of Ning Wang. Lin Wan commanded.

"Yes. Shopkeeper Ji went out in response.

Lin Wan played with the luminous cup in his hand, the crimson liquid in the cup circulated in the light green jade cup, crystal clear, and the smart light was reflected on Lin Wan's fair face, touching people's souls.

When Changfeng Gongzi walked into the room, he saw this scene, and he unconsciously narrowed his eyes, and his eyes were full of interest.

Lin Wan raised his head and saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old man standing at the door, with a slender figure, dressed in a white dress, a black tunic trimmed with gold threads, white forged hair, lined with white skin and slender eyebrows, even Lin Wan, who had seen countless beautiful men, couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the rumors were indeed true, and the son of Changfeng deserved to be one of the most beautiful men in the world.

Changfeng Gongzi was also looking at the young master of Tianxianglou in front of him, he was not very old, he was not small, and he dared to make an appointment with the young master of Shadowless Pavilion who ordinary people were afraid to avoid. The corners of Changfeng Gongzi's mouth pulled up a wicked smile and strode in.

Lin Wan stood up and greeted him with a smile, and arched his hand: "Changfeng Gongzi, I have admired the name for a long time, junior brother Wan Ling, please ask the prince to move over, it is really important to discuss." ”

Changfeng Gongzi didn't answer, he sat directly on the chair opposite Lin Wan, and the shopkeeper Ji personally brought a cup of Changfeng Gongzi's favorite Tianxianglou special brew "Drunken Tianxiang", put it on the table in front of Changfeng Gongzi, and said, "Changfeng Gongzi, please!"

Changfeng Gongzi raised the white jade cup, sniffed it, and then closed his eyes, looking quite enjoyable.

Lin Wan looked at him with a smile, and when he finished drinking a cup, Shopkeeper Ji added another cup.

Changfeng Gongzi saw that Lin Wan had been calm, and couldn't help but look at him a few more times, and the young man in front of him couldn't say how handsome he was, but the big smart eyes on his beautiful little face made him feel good when he saw it.

He bent his elbows, stretched out his slender white jade-like palm to support his chin, leaned on the long case, looked at Lin Wan's eyes, and said with a smile: "Say, please come here, what's the matter?"

Lin Wan looked at the smiling face and shining eyes of Prince Changfeng, smiled slightly, his face did not change, and looked back at Prince Changfeng's eyes seriously, unaffected at all, and said, "Prince Changfeng, I heard that the Shadowless Pavilion never accepts tasks related to the royal family, right?"

Changfeng Gongzi raised his eyebrows, and his slender fingers tapped the table twice, indicating that Lin Wan was right.

Lin Wan continued: "Junior brother got the news, Prince Changfeng recently kidnapped two people in Fengming City, does Prince Changfeng know what the identities of these two people are?

Changfeng Gongzi sat upright, looking at Shopkeeper Ji with sharp eyes, Shopkeeper Ji stood aside, lowered his head and eyes, motionless.

Lin Wan said with a smile: "Don't be angry, the shopkeeper Ji doesn't know about it, the little brother got the news from somewhere else, although Tianxianglou is a family property, but the little brother is also the first time to come to Tianxianglou today, the shopkeeper Ji just helped the little brother introduce the son, please trust the reputation of Tianxianglou, and will not leak the privacy of the guests." ”

After listening to Lin Wan's explanation, Changfeng Gongzi's face was slightly pale, looking at Lin Wan's clear eyes, he did not doubt what Lin Wan said, and he had eaten in Tianxianglou almost every day in the past two years, and he had indeed never seen Lin Wan.

Lin Wan's smile remained unchanged and continued: "Childe, Prince Ning is the prince's person, and he is helping the prince do things. ”

Lin Wan saw that Changfeng Gongzi's face was ugly, paused for a while, took a sip of the grape wine in his cup, and continued: "The person he wants is the Seventh Prince, and the other person who is with the Seventh Prince is the nephew of General Pingnan. ”

When he heard the three words of the Seventh Prince, Changfeng looked at Lin Wan with wide eyes.

Lin Wan was not afraid, but it was a little strange, Prince Changfeng only came to the capital two years ago, and the Seventh Prince had already gone to the Pingnan army at that time, and the two should not know each other. But Changfeng Gongzi was not moved when he heard the crown prince, but when he heard that the seventh prince reacted so much, why?
