The weather was fine yesterday, and even the sunset can be seen in the evening.
But by the time Jiang Xuening took the carriage out of the mansion today, the sky outside had become gloomy, and the clouds were densely covered in the low sky.
It looked like it was going to rain.
The vendors and pawns who were hawking on the streets and alleys had already hurriedly closed their stalls, and the bustling capital of the past suddenly became much more empty and quiet. Only the wind occasionally rolled some withered leaves from the row upon row of houses.
There were not many guests left at the top of the building.
On a day like this, no one should come.
The waiter, who had been busy all day, was leaning against the counter and was trying to talk to the shopkeeper, but at this moment, the sound of a carriage approaching came from outside, and it quickly stopped outside the storey.
The waiter was stunned for a moment, and then quickly ran out to say hello.
I saw that among the fallen leaves that were blown by the cold wind, the curtain of the car was opened, and the maid in the car came down first, and then tied the young lady with a ferret fur cape. The waiter had seen many high-ranking officials and nobles in Beijing on this floor, but it was the first time to see such a good-looking girl.
Looking at this line, the origin is only high.
Why do you have to go out in such weather
The waiter welcomed the person into the door, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Is the girl here?"
Jiang Xuening glanced at the deserted downstairs lobby, then looked at the steps to the second floor, lowered his eyes, and said, "Choose a private room on the second floor, I'll wait for others."
The waiter immediately said, "Then please go upstairs."
Jiang Xuening took the people upstairs.
In the corner of the street outside, Daoqin stood in the shadow of the swaying trees, only looking at the two doors opened by the floor, the figure of the "Secret Ning" gradually disappeared above the stairs, her brows slowly tightened.
Today, Xie Wei rarely chopped the piano in the chop hall.
Like an old man, Lu Xian leaned his feet up on an Arhat bed in the room, and pushed the table that was upright in the room, so that he could lie down more comfortably, with apricots in his mouth. Fang Zhai just sent the cakes, but he was holding his account book for this month in his hand, and he happily counted how much he had earned this month.
When I looked up, I saw Xie Weili standing in front of the window looking at the sky, and he almost died of euphoria.
"Why don't people get retribution?" Lu Xian sighed hypocritically, "Look at you, you know how to oppress me all day long, and ask me to pay for you, but I didn't expect people to buy raw silk. I got here first, and now I have created such a big mystery. I sent a knife and piano out and I haven’t come back yet. I must have seen something along with it. Alas, Xie Ju’an, Xie Ju’an, I am your God of Wealth. Be nice to me, understand?"
Jian Shu stood diagonally behind him and rolled his eyes at him.
Lu Xian seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, and said leisurely, "Jianshu, your eyes are not good-looking. Stare at me again, and I will let you follow me next time."
Sword Book: "..."
just forget it. Secretly talking to people is such a chore, and there is no one to talk to to kill boredom. It’s not good to be tortured into a tuberculosis who can talk to himself without anyone talking, just like Daoqin.
Endure the calm for a while.
Xie Wei only looked back at Lu Xian at this time, and when he saw him lying on his back, he frowned slightly and said, "Believe it or not, I will ask someone to throw you out now."
Lu Xian: "..."
Okay, boss here.
Endure the calm for a while.
He pouted the corners of his mouth, and sat up reluctantly, with a somewhat intriguing expression on his face: "Xie Ju'an, you are very interesting. He looks like a serious scholar, but the two children around him are called What 'book' and 'qin' are nothing more than 'knife' and 'sword'. I thought about it carefully, you are really hiding something dangerous inside."
Xie Wei replied calmly: "If I'm not dangerous, will you serve me?"
Lu Xian touched his palms and laughed loudly: "Exactly, exactly!"
Thinking of how many capable people with lofty ideals in the Manchurian Academy back then, Lu Xian was so proud of his talents that he could look down on such a Xie Wei. Later, Xie Wei went home to mourn Ding You. He saw that everyone else was vulgar and incompetent, so he simply resigned and put his seal on it and returned to Jinling. To do business.
I remember tears.
Lu Xian let out a long sigh: "The road is a long way to go, I will go up and down to find out!"
When he finished speaking, a report came from outside: "Young Master Daoqin is back!"
Lu showed a speechless expression.
Sure enough, a short while later, a young man in blue clothes appeared at the door of Shuoqin Hall, walked in from outside, stepped on the ground, hardly made a sound, bowed and said, "I'm following someone."
Lu Xian was suddenly shocked, his eyes were shining, and he quickly asked, "Who is the owner behind You Fangyin?"
But I didn't expect that Daoqin didn't answer.
He just raised his eyes and looked at Xie Wei with a rare hesitation in his eyes.
Xie Wei realized that the people Daoqin followed might be a little unusual: "Tell me about it."
Daoqin then said: "That subordinate will make a long story short. At first, I obeyed the instructions of the master, and only went to Qingyuan Uncle's Mansion to see the situation. After waiting outside for a long time, I thought that Miss You would not leave the mansion again today. But I didn't expect that. When Chen Zheng was in the house, she quietly came out of the house, dressed like a servant in the house, brought silver taels, and first went to Dongshi's silk and satin shop to buy a fine hang silk, which seemed to be Yun The material of the crane pattern, and then I went to buy the pen and ink of the study room. There were two tubes of pens, but the subordinates were too far apart to see what kind of pens they were, and…”
Xie Wei: "…"
Lu Xian: "..."
Jian Shu, who was standing beside him, stroked his forehead secretly, gently tugged at Dao Qin's sleeve, and lowered his voice to remind: "Long story short."
"Oh."
Daoqin then remembered that he had made a mistake, nodded, and decided to accept the suggestion and put it in a more concise way.
"She bought a lot of things, including hanging silk, pen and ink, and even some rouge gouache powder for her daughter's home. Then she went to the temple to offer incense. There are many people there today, and there are many pilgrims offering incense. I followed her to pay I was accidentally seen by a monk who knew the guest and donated two taels of sesame oil. You Fangyin seemed to have donated as well, and after entering the temple, he asked for a peace talisman..."
Lu Xian: "..."
Sword Book: "..."
Xie Wei raised his hand and slowly pressed his eyebrows, and said only: "Talk about the point."
Daoqin suddenly felt a little wronged in her heart, and she didn't feel that she was talking too much at all.
Shouldn't the tracking situation be reported so carefully
He pursed his lips and said sullenly, "Miss Ning."
Jian Shu suddenly widened his eyes, showing a somewhat unbelievable look, and at this moment he almost subconsciously turned his head to look at Xie Wei.
Xie Wei stood by the window, silent.
Lu Xian was confused and didn't know who this Ning Er girl was. He was almost sickened by Daoqin: "It's not like you said the main point! Why is this person talking to You Fang? Are you related? Is it her employer? What does it have to do with her? What have you seen? Oh, no, who is 'Ning Er girl'? Daoqin, are you stupid? Who knows if you just say your name Who is it? Although there are not many people with the surname Ning in the capital, which family is this? You—"
A whole bunch of questions have sprung up like bamboo shoots.
Lu Xian's mouth was full of eloquence.
It was only after this big question was almost thrown out that he suddenly saw that the expressions of the three masters and servants in the house were not right, and his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly realized that it was not easy: "He said 'Miss Ning', You all seem to know who it is?"
"Boom" sound.
A muffled thunder rolled across the sky.
In this bleak late autumn and early winter, a heavy rain fell from the sky and quickly covered the entire capital. The huge raindrops fell and hit the calm lake outside the Chuoqin Hall, and also hit the window lattice in front of the nearby window, splashing a small mist of water.
Xie Wei turned his eyes and stared, only slowly said: "It's raining."
There was a burst of winter thunder, and light blue lightning cut through the low twilight, and at this moment, it also illuminated the dim study of Yongyi Hou's mansion. The stacks of books were piled high, but when this lightning flashed, a deep shadow was left behind, showing a mountain-like depression.
On the candlestick in the corner, the candle flame was swayed by the wind.
The outline of Yan Lin's handsome face was also illuminated by the shaking light and shadow, showing an unprecedented coldness.
Zhou Yinzhi sat calmly opposite him.
He, who was just promoted to Qianhu of Jinyiwei, can be said to have the qualifications to touch the core of Jinyiwei's power, and he has completely jumped into a high-ranking person with a head and face.
It's just that it didn't come very well.
But what does this matter
Zhou Yinzhi felt that he had never been a gentleman, and that all means in the world, as long as they can achieve their goals, are good means.
The embroidered spring knife that was newly bestowed on his waist had already been taken off and placed on the table at the door. At this moment, he was wearing a deep black flying fish suit, and only said to Yan Lin, "Zhou is greedy for power and full of fame and fortune. I knew about this early on, but before I saw the benefits, I was in charge of the important task of Jinyiwei and did not dare to say anything to the prince. Until the second girl recommended me to the prince, and the prince worked hard to get a thousand households for Zhou. Zhou A certain person is a villain, and the villain is in harmony with each other. That's why, today, everything is revealed to the prince."
Investigating Yongyi Hou's mansion was the secret order of Jin Yiwei.
Who in the world doesn't know that Jinyiwei only listens to the saint
It is clear who suspects that Yongyi Hou's mansion is also related to the case of King Pingnan's rebellion against the party in Beijing.
Even if Zhou Yinzhi is a thousand households, he just obeys the orders from above, and it is dangerous to him who has no power. He knew that this news was a bolt from the blue for the prince, and even for the entire Yongyi Hou Mansion.
So looking at Yan Lin's expression, he did not have any persuasion.
At the moment, listening to the thunder and the pouring rain outside, he only said slowly: "If Yongyi Hou's mansion has nothing to do with the rebellion of King Pingnan, and since Yinzhi has been favored by the prince, naturally he will not make fabricated evidence to frame it. The matter of Hou's mansion is coming. But you may not believe it when you say it. These days, in Xia Micha Hou's mansion, I found that there is indeed a correspondence between Hou Ye and the remnants of King Pingnan's party. I don't know if the prince knows about this matter. ?"
When Yan Lin listened, she felt in a trance.
How could my father have any connection with the remnants of King Pingnan's party
The fingers on his knees clenched slowly, he slowly closed his eyes, and only asked, "Since you have found it, when will you report it?"
A Zhou Yinzhi can be found today, and Zhao Yinzhi and Wang Yinzhi can be found in the next day.
And maybe there will be more and more terrifying than what Zhou Yinzhi found out.
The heart of the emperor, who can guess
Yan Lin was someone who had walked in the palace after all, so he knew that it was impossible to completely suppress this matter. All that can be done is to prepare in advance.
Zhou Yinzhi looked at the young man who was going to be crowned in just one month, and suddenly felt that he was not as naive as he thought at the beginning, and he was easy to trust others.
On the contrary, what this prince thought was far beyond his peers.
He then remembered Jiang Xuening, and only replied: "After seven days, submit the truth."
Yan Lin burst out laughing.
All the things related to Zhou Yinzhi came up from the depths of his mind at this moment, and the piles and piles were closely aligned. The rain that was previously unreasonable has become reasonable after some talk today.
Including Ning Ning's previous words...
The more he laughed, the more he couldn't stop it. At the end, he couldn't help it, and a strange grief came up.
Zhou Yinzhi just sat there and watched, calm like a mountain, not moving, only his eyes flickered, as if he admired the young man in front of him, but he seemed indifferent. Don't make waves.
The bell of Youmo rang outside.
Zhou Yinzhi said everything he should have said, so he got up from his seat and only bowed to Yan Lin: "Zhou is only a nobody, and he has no ability to turn clouds and rains in the courtroom. Don't blame the prince. It was raining heavily at night, and Zhou had to go home, so he didn't dare to disturb the prince again, so he retired."
Yan Lin looked up with blank eyes and said, "Qingfeng, send Zhou Qianhu."
Qing Feng stood outside the door and responded.
Zhou Yinzhi paid his respects, and picked up the saber he had taken off earlier from the table. Then he went out, took the umbrella from Qingfeng's hand, and said, "I don't dare to work."
Then he followed the promenade, led by Qingfeng and walked out.
