Chapter 11: The Trees Want to Be Quiet and the Wind Doesn't Stop (1)
"I've been nervous in my heart, and I always feel that this person is secretive, and he is not as pitiful as he seems," Ah San said, "So, I found someone to investigate in many ways, and there was no result in the beginning, but in the past two days, there has been a trace of news." ”
He was silent.
He continued, "Before he came to our tobacco house, he had already started smoking marijuana in other small tobacco houses, and the key was not a small dose, and what I was worried about was that I heard that he seems to be going to the palace a lot these days, and I am afraid that there is a connection." ”
"What could it be?"
"I haven't guessed that yet." Ah San took out a cigarette and didn't light it, just put it between his lips, presumably he was in a very depressed mood now.
People have always been uneasy about the development of things that they can't control.
It's understandable, "Could it be that we're overthinking?" ”
"I hope so." Ah San sighed faintly, "Okay, you go back, that's all I have to say, you should also think about it, I'm afraid it's not good for our tobacco house, after all, I suddenly turned to us to buy it, I'm always afraid that there will be other attempts." ”
“…… Well. He replied leisurely and got out of the carriage.
After going back, she looked preoccupied, and even though there was a lot of noise around her, she couldn't get into her heart.
Liu Wanniang saw Lu Ran walking in, and couldn't help but be stunned again, "Where did you run again?" Just now I wanted to take you to see Mrs. Li, but I didn't see you for a long time, and you ......" Halfway through the words, I finally noticed her tightly knit brow, "What's wrong?" What happened? ”
Biting her lower lip, "Marijuana, marijuana...... What happens if you smoke too much marijuana? ”
Liu Wanniang couldn't help but laugh when she heard a leisurely and nonsensical question, "Silly girl, what if you smoke too much?" To keep sucking, of course? If you don't suck, you'll die and come back to life! ”
"So...... Addictive, so, dripping blood. "It turns out, it turns out!" ”
"What, what's addictive? Dripping blood? Liu Wanniang was confused.
Holding Liu Wanniang's wrist with her hand, "Mom, I'll leave the next matter here to you, I have to find someone to confirm." After speaking, without waiting for Liu Wanniang to ask, she hurriedly went upstairs, prepared a bag of silver from the room, and then quickly went downstairs and ran out.
Zuixianlou is the largest restaurant in the capital, and those who can afford it here are naturally rich people.
Because he knew about Chu Jinyu in advance, he knew that his two meals a day were prepared here.
According to the leisurely assumption, if Chu Jinyu really smoked marijuana in order to contain the emperor, then when the task is completed, he will definitely go to detoxification, and once he starts to detoxify, he not only needs his own willpower, but also time, in addition to a lot of cooperation around him, for example, there must be some changes in his dining habits in the past.
Bu leisurely went straight to the counter in the building, wanting to ask the shopkeeper, as soon as he entered the door, he suddenly stretched out a jade hand from the side without noticing.
"Is it a step girl?" A familiar, slightly soft, delicate voice came.
The step stopped leisurely, turned his head, and was secretly surprised!
Song Yiling?
She seemed to be very happy, she didn't care about panting, pulled Bu Youran's arm, and said excitedly, "It's you, it's Bu girl, right?" I'm looking for you. ”
Bu leisurely frowned, "Song ...... What is the girl looking for me? ”
"I, I heard from Liu's mother that I can ask you to be an image consultant."
After listening leisurely, he glanced back at the direction of the counter, there was only a young man there, presumably a part-time worker.
looked at Song Yiling impatiently.
"Isn't it?" Song Yiling looked at the steps timidly.
Bu leisurely sighed, thinking about how he couldn't avoid these "old people"? Could it be fate?
"I don't know how Liu Wanniang told you, but one thing, I only do the business of rich people, and I don't have to talk about it if I don't have money!" Step leisurely shake your hands and walk back.
It seems that it is not a good time to go out today.
"I have money, one hundred taels, is it enough?" Song Yiling followed closely.
Bu leisurely sneered, "The girl is young, I don't care, you can go back and inquire about the market and come to me again." ”
didn't think about it, Song Yiling chased after her, "If you don't sue me, how will I know?" My father is a scholar, and my family is not short of money, as long as you offer it, I can afford it. ”
Bu Youran never knew that she still had such a persistent side, except for the matter of pursuing Chu Jinyu.
Bu leisurely stopped, staring at her, "Okay, prepare three thousand taels early tomorrow morning." I'll quote you in terms of what you want to improve. ”
"So you agreed?" She was pleasantly surprised.
He turned his head leisurely, "How did you get here?" ”
"Me? I—I've got a carriage,......" she gestured to the carriage that looked like a lady dressed as a woman not far away.
"Give me a ride." With a tone that could not be refused, he took the lead in walking over.
Song Yiling was stunned, and the little maid Xiaoqing who was following her was also dissatisfied, and couldn't help but murmur and complain, "Why is this person like this, he is obviously hypocritical with us, and his preference is like a self-acquaintance." ”
Song Yiling glared at her and couldn't help pouting, "If I didn't want to see her strength, I wouldn't bother to take care of it." ”
……
Facts have proved that since yesterday's catwalk show, Yihong Courtyard has become popular, and the home clothes sold out, and Han Qing of Yihong Courtyard has been named the first beauty in Beijing, overpowering talented women.
And there is an endless stream of people vying to invite Bu Youran to the mansions of various official ranks, Liu Wanniang counted the money and counted the hand cramps, and at the same time, she also had to be a leisurely agent, responsible for arranging the order of invitations from the size of the grade, so that the little sister of the Song family was thrown to the end of a street at all.
Inside the Weiyang Palace.
"Get out!" The little emperor lying on the bed suddenly knocked over the medicinal juice bowl handed over by the palace people, and suddenly there were black stains on the ground, he grabbed the sheets in his hands, his face was hideous, "Get out of ......"
"Your Majesty!" The palace man trembled and knelt on the ground.
The little emperor suddenly sat up from the bed, staring at the blood veins under her collar in a daze, and took advantage of not paying attention, and bit down.
The palace people screamed loudly and subconsciously pushed the little emperor away, but they were still bitten out of blood.
"Blood, I want blood...... Give me ...... blood" The little emperor's eyes were red, as if he was stunned, and he just stared at her blood and crawled past.
The palace man covered his neck, got up, and quickly ran outside.
After a while, there was a commotion in the Weiyang Palace......
The palace once again gathered the emperor's cronies.
"Imperial Doctor Huang, why is the emperor like this?" Li Tingyan, the right minister of the Atrium Province, asked in a low voice.
At this time, the little emperor on the bed was pressed by the palace people, his face was pale, his eyes were black, he kept struggling, and kept shouting "blood, I want blood......
Imperial Physician Huang frowned, withdrew his hand to check the pulse, and turned around, "Master Li, borrow one side to speak." ”
Li Tingyan followed.
"Lord Li, I'm afraid the emperor's illness is strict."
"Yan zhòng? Haven't you been using Chu Jinyu's blood as a medicine? Li Tingyan raised his voice, "If I can drink all of Chu Jinyu's blood to save the emperor now, I will immediately arrest him and enter the palace." ”
Imperial Doctor Huang waved his hand, "It's useless." ”
Li Tingyan froze suddenly.
"The emperor's complexion is pale and his cheeks are thin, which is a terminal illness." Imperial Doctor Huang couldn't help but blame himself, "Now that I'm hungry for human blood, it's useless." ”
Li Tingyan was silent for a long time, "This matter is very important, and it must not be leaked, only you and I can know about this matter today." ”
Imperial Doctor Huang swept his eyes lightly, which meant that the remaining three palace people would all die.
Alas!
Imperial Physician Huang sighed.
……
Yihong Temple.
"I'm going to go to the University Scholar's Mansion and the Imperial Historian's Mansion before noon today, and I'm a little rushed in time, you ......"
"Not today." Bu Youran resolutely refused.
"Tired?" Liu Wanniang asked with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay, then I'll help you talk about it, change it to tomorrow." ”
"Not tomorrow." Bu Youran's eyes were resolute, "I have a little personal matter these days. ”
"But, it's all taken, and all the money has been collected." Liu Wanniang was distressed, "If we regret this, we will have to pay double the contract fee." ”
He sighed leisurely, "Then it depends on the time, if you come back early, I'll go over after noon." ”
Liu Wanniang nodded reluctantly, but when she thought of going to various mansions to explain her request, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Walk leisurely to the smoke house, which used to be full of people, but now it is quiet enough to fight flies.
She saw those subordinates sitting on the chairs, bored and picking at their nails, and when she saw Lu Ran walking in, she quickly stood up, "Step girl." ”
She looked around leisurely, and without waiting for her to ask, she said, "The boss is out." ”
"Where to go?" She turned her head.
"No, I don't know." Several people looked at each other and couldn't help but lower their heads.
He bit his lip leisurely and wanted to move his feet out.
"Step girl," the man chased out, "isn't the smoke house going to work for long?" ”
"Who said that?" Look at him leisurely.
"Everyone thinks so......" The man didn't dare to look at him directly, "the other families are fine, but we are banned from selling cigarettes, and they all say that we have offended the officials in the palace." ”
He twisted his eyebrows leisurely, "Don't talk nonsense anymore, watch the hall carefully, don't let people take advantage of it." ”
"Oh."
walked back to Yihong Courtyard leisurely and found Liu Wanniang, "Did Mom return the two families in the morning?" ”
Liu Wanniang was overjoyed, "Not yet?" Have you decided you want to go again? ”
He nodded leisurely, "Prepare the carriage." ”
When Liu Wanniang heard this, she clapped her hands, "That's right, girl, if you go, you will have our benefits, do you think my mother and I are just for that bit of silver?" Take a long-term view, after all, it is a first-class official rank, for you, or for our Yihong Courtyard, it is a promising ......" she said as she led people to prepare things.
The imperial historian, Zheng Yipin, can accept the recitals of hundreds of officials on behalf of the emperor, manage important atlases and classics, and draft summoning documents on behalf of the imperial court.
If this is the case, he thinks that choosing the Imperial Doctor will definitely help.
The car has arrived at the gate of the house, and the side door led by a group of subordinates entered the courtyard, all the way around the east and west, to a west wing.
There is a woman sitting in front of the mirror in the room, this person is wearing a floral skirt with a hundred butterflies, a short gown with colorful carved silk on her shoulders, a Luanfeng golden hairpin pinned to her head, and a gold pendant on the side, extremely luxurious.
This person is the main room of Master Yu Shi, Zhang Li, Li Ziying, with a bold personality.
is slightly different from what she imagined before, as soon as she saw Lu Youran, she first praised it, and then the two chatted enthusiastically, and even let Lu Youran choose a few home clothes for her that day, and bought them one by one.
Because she thought that she still had something to do, she couldn't help but stay for a while and introduced her to a few popular hair buns.
"Miss Step is really ingenious," Li Ziying looked in the mirror and praised with satisfaction, "I heard that the gift that the Queen Mother was full of praise on the day of her birthday banquet was also prepared by yourself?" ”
Smile leisurely.
"How old is Step Girl this year?" She lowered the mirror and turned to look at her, "If you look closely, you can't guess your age." ”
He leaned back leisurely, "Madam, can this question be kept secret?" ”
Li Ziying raised her eyebrows and smiled secretly, "Okay, good." She sighed, "A woman's face is the most difficult to keep, although I think your skills are good, but if you delay your lifelong event, I also feel a little pity." ”
He turned around and began to pack his things, and Ne responded, "Madame is right. She deliberately avoided it, "Actually, the folk girl still wants to ask Mrs. for something today, does Mrs. know about Ah San Yanguan?" ”
"Ah San Yan Pavilion?" Li Ziying's eyes flickered, "The name is very familiar...... Is it the one that sells metal hollow cigarette cases? ”
nodded leisurely, "The people's daughter is entrusted to this family, and I don't know why the government stopped selling it to the outside world." ”
"Oh? I haven't heard of it. She muttered, "If you're in a hurry, I'll go and inquire for you right now." ”
"Then there's Mrs. Law." Say goodbye leisurely.
Coming out of the side door again, I happened to see a carriage stop beside me, and after a closer look, it turned out to be Ah San's, and he walked forward leisurely and happily, "Why are you here?" ”
Ah San's face condensed, and he glanced up at the side door, "Are you here to find Master Yushi?" ”
He shook his head leisurely, "You wait a minute," he turned around and said a few words to the coachman of the carriage waiting for him, and then turned back to Ah San's carriage and sat next to him, "Don't tell me, you also came to find him?" ”
Ah San did not refute.
"It seems that the two of us coincide." He smiled leisurely.
Ah San sighed, "If you know the answer, I'm afraid you won't be able to laugh again." ”
He smiled leisurely, "What do you mean?" Do you know who did it? ”
"I'm afraid you can't even think of it."
"Who?"
Ah San laughed at himself, "I thought it was me who was a mediocre person and thought too much, but I didn't expect it to come true." It's just that I couldn't have guessed that this person would be such a city, and I have been planning for a long time, and I am afraid that you and I will not be able to escape this catastrophe. ”
He was silent.
"It's so scary at a young age, I'm afraid of the future...... I can't imagine. Ah San shook his head, turned his head and smiled obscurily again, "Did you guess?" ”
"Chu Jinyu." He blurted out leisurely, no questions, but an affirmative tone.
