"Don't worry, my lord." Shen Qianling comforted, "Then a small bug can't run very fast, it should be nearby."
"Chirp!" Little Phoenix squatted on the top of the wall, Heidou looked around blankly, feeling really sad.
"I can't find my son?" Qin Shaoyu asked. Previously, he ran around Jiujiujiu in the Shadow Chasing Palace all day long, digging up gems and pearls buried in the ground.
"No matter how shiny a red armored wolf is, it's not a gem." Shen Qianling called the hidden guard, "Where did you go when you were fighting just now?"
The dark guard cried sadly: "From here to the river."
Wen Liunian's face turned even paler.
"Where is the river?" Shen Qianling asked again.
The dark guard said: "Three miles away."
Shen Qianling: "..."
"This is the red armored wolf?" After a long while, Mu Hanye turned back excitedly, holding a worm in his palm.
There was silence in the courtyard.
Qin Shaoyu praised: "Brother Mu is also very capable to find such a fat cabbage caterpillar this season."
The rest of the people almost wanted to worship him, even if they hadn't seen him before, just listening to the three words "red armored wolf" wouldn't bring back a fat green caterpillar, right
Mu Hanye complained in a low voice: "Ah Huang didn't remind me either."
Huang Yuan wanted to pretend that he didn't know this person.
Wen Liunian didn't care too much, so he poked around in the courtyard with a small stick.
The dark guards and the shadow guards of the Qijue Kingdom searched all the places they passed by just now, and the little Phoenix also ran around, chirping and chirping non-stop along the way.
Shen Qianling drew a circle the size of a copper coin: "It's so big, the red one is very bright, and the belly is white."
Mu Hanye came to a sudden: "No wonder it's called the Red Armored Wolf."
Huang Yuan: "..."
Isn't this a matter of course
"Brother Mu, go there, and Ling'er and I will go there." Qin Shaoyu said, "We must find it."
"Naturally, brother Qin, don't worry." Mu Hanye pulled Huang Daxian up and leaped up to the treetops. Wen Liunian only felt a gust of wind in his head, and when he looked up, there was no sign of it—kung fu is really unpredictable.
"Don't worry yet." Zhao Yue patted him on the back, "Although the red-armored wolf is not an ancient spirit beast compared to the phoenix, it is quite smart, and it should be able to come back within three to five miles."
"Yeah." Wen Liunian dropped the stick in his hand, "It's not here, go out and look for it."
Zhao Yue went out with him and walked along the path, carefully paying attention to the small red bright spots along the way.
An hour later, Wen Liunian sat under the tree with his knees hugged, his eyes slightly red.
really lost.
"Hey, I will definitely find it." Zhao Yue hugged him and shook him, "Don't worry yet."
"The red-armored wolf runs very fast." Wen Liunian's voice was a little hoarse, "There is an official road not far away, what if he is trampled to death."
"Of course not." Zhao Yue hugged him and stood up, "Go back to your room and rest for a while, I will continue to look for it and promise to bring it back."
"My lord." Several hidden guards hurried back.
"Found it?" Wen Liunian's eyes lit up.
"No." The dark guard shook his head.
The light in Wen Liunian's eyes dimmed instantly.
The dark guard said: "But there seems to be something wrong with the river."
Wen Liunian: "..."
something wrong
Zhao Yue walked over with him.
"My lord." Qin Shaoyu and Shen Qianling were also waiting by the river.
"What happened?" Wen Liunian asked.
Shen Qianling pointed to a messy grass - there were many dark marks on it, like dried blood, and the water plants beside it also had traces of being stepped on.
"Look around, maybe there will be other clues." Wen Liunian squatted down to look, and frowned slightly, "It does seem to be blood."
A moment later, the dark guard found a dagger and a woman's corpse whose hands and feet were tied up and beyond recognition.
The name of the local county magistrate was Pan Tai. After hearing the news, he hurried over with the yamen servants, almost complaining in his heart—Panjia Town is considered to be under the foot of the emperor, and the folk customs have always been simple and honest. A Taiping officer who has been serving for five or six years, who would have thought that no accident would happen sooner or later, but when the grand ceremony was about to be held in Wangcheng, a murder case happened, and he was bumped into by King Qijue and Lord Wen! If I don't handle it properly, I'm afraid that I will only have to pick the black yarn in the future.
Zhao Yue continued to lead people to look for the red armored wolf, and Wen Liunian asked Pan Tai, "Maybe your lord can identify who this female corpse is?"
"Let's take a look first." Pan Taicheng was terrified, stepped forward and carefully lifted a corner of the white cloth, then his face turned pale, and he crouched outside and retched for a long time.
Wen Liunian shook his head inwardly.
"Master Wen, forgive me, I have recently... not a good spleen and stomach." Pan Tai calmed down and said tremblingly.
"It doesn't matter." Wen Liunian said, "Is there a woman who has disappeared strangely in Panjia Town recently?"
"Yes, yes." Pan Tai nodded repeatedly, "Just the day before, Yang Dafu's daughter-in-law from the Sophora japonica shop in the city eloped with someone, and I just received the news."
"Elope?" Wen Liunian was thoughtful, "Then did he report to the officials?"
"Not yet." Pan Tai shook his head.
"What is the woman's name, what is her background, whether she has any children, is her personality hot or gentle, and what is her relationship with Yang Dafu?" Wen Liunian asked.
Pan Tai's forehead was sweating a little: "Yang Dafu's daughter-in-law's name is Pan Zhen, nicknamed Axiu, and her ancestors have been selling cakes in Panjia Town for generations. One of the elder brothers in the family died young, and the Pan family's parents also passed away three years ago. , so the uncle from afar decided to recruit Yang Dafu. The couple are honest people, they have been married for a year and have no children, and they are usually considered loving.” Fortunately, there are not many people in Panjia Town, so I can barely remember them clearly.
"How does Lord Pan plan to handle this case?" Wen Liunian asked again.
Pan Taidao: "Let's find Yang Dafu to identify the corpse first, and then we can talk about it after confirming his identity."
Wen Liunian nodded: "I will go with Master Pan."
The sky had gradually darkened, Shen Qianling sent two secret guards to protect Wen Liuqian to go to the yamen, while the rest continued to search for the red-armored wolf by the river.
The Qijue Country Shadow Guard was also quite guilty, so he searched very hard, but even after searching for miles around, he couldn't find any trace of the red armored wolf.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp." Little Phoenix squatted on the branch, and little black bean eyes were slightly sad.
Shen Qianling stretched out his hand under the tree.
Little Phoenix closed his eyes, and fell down like a ball.
Qin Shaoyu: "..."
Do you remember that you could fly
"Hurry up and keep looking." Shen Qianling said fiercely, "If you can't find it, don't sleep!"
Qin Shaoyu tapped his head: "I can't be in a hurry."
"Chirp." Little Phoenix looked at his father with very weak eyes—go find him quickly.
"I'll take you back to rest first." Qin Shaoyu said, "Then come out and continue looking."
"Be sure to find it." Shen Qianling urged, "It's a different place. If you lose it... No, if my son is lost, I will be anxious."
"What if I lose it?" Qin Shaoyu was alert.
Shen Qianling didn't even think about it: "Then I definitely won't look for it." Just throw it away.
Qin Shaoyu: "..."
"Hush." On the other end, Mu Hanye made a silent gesture to Huang Yuan.
"What are you going to do again?" Huang Yuan frowned, "Don't mess around."
"Who said I'm going to mess around." Mu Hanye stretched out his hand to flick his nose, and then picked up half an extremely huge tree spider from under the tree under the moonlight. The body fluid flowing from the wound was still glowing green. .
Huang Yuan was puzzled: "What are you doing?"
"Been bitten." Mu Han said at night, "This is called a green tarantula, and it is highly poisonous."
"Then you still move." Huang Yuan said, "Throw it away quickly!"
"Ah Huang really cares about this king." Mu Hanye was quite moved.
Huang Yuan: "..."
How long will it take to perform this kind of drama before getting tired
"Big animals don't know how to eat them, and small insects don't dare to eat them." Mu Hanye threw away the half green tarantula, "Only the red-armored wolf and Gu king can eat it."
"Aren't you unfamiliar with it?" Huang Yuan frowned slightly, why did he sound sensible now.
Mu Hanye immediately said with a look of love: "Because Ah Huang likes to watch me act."
Huang Yuan's mood is complicated, God is sorry, he doesn't have such strange hobbies.
"Let's go." Mu Hanye took his hand and stood up, "Go and tell the others that according to the size of the red-armored wolf, it should be able to eat such a big green tarantula, and maybe it is lying down somewhere sleeping."
Now that we have a general scope, we also narrowed the search circle. Under the moonlight, Zhao Yue took every step very carefully, for fear that he would accidentally step on the red armored wolf.
There was a rustling sound in the grass, and a few fat-headed worms ran over, and then a small group of bright red lights swished out.
Zhao Yue: "..."
The red-armored wolf lay on the spot, shaking its tentacles happily—I found it!
Zhao Yue felt relieved, squatted down and stretched out his hand gently.
The red-armored wolf did not crawl over as usual, but turned around and crawled back to the grass.
Zhao Yue frowned slightly. Just as he was about to catch it, he saw the red-armored wolf turn around again, followed by another... red-armored wolf. It's a little smaller in size, but it's just as shiny, and it's dumb when it gets up.
Zhao Yue laughed out loud.
The red-armored wolf rejoiced, and climbed up to Zhao Yue's hands with his friends.
The dark guard rushed over upon hearing the news, almost weeping with joy—it was found.
Shen Qianling said: "If you lose it again next time—"
"Then we will commit suicide and apologize." The dark guard was very tactful.
"I'm sorry to trouble you all." Zhao Yue said, "Since we found it, let's rest earlier, I'll go to the county government to have a look."
"Yes." Shen Qianling nodded, "If there is anything that needs help, the head of the family can just ask, and we will go back first." Although the murder case was revealed, with Wen Liunian and the local officials present, it is inconvenient for the Chasing Shadow Palace to intervene —As for the Qijue Kingdom, it is even more out of control.
In Panjia Town, Yang Dafu was talking with Shang Yunze in the courtyard, when suddenly a group of yamen servants came to the door.
"Guys, what's the matter?" Yang Dafu was taken aback by this battle.
"Your Excellency has an order, send us to take you back to identify the corpse." Yamen servant said.
Yang Dafu turned pale when he heard the words: "Recognize, recognize the corpse?"
"Yes, a female corpse was found by the river." The yamen servant said, "Hurry up, when you arrive at the county yamen, someone will explain it to you."
Yang Dafu's knees were weak, he muttered to himself and shook his head: "That's not my wife, my wife will definitely not die."
"What are you talking about!" the yamen servant said, "Is it right? You will know after you have seen it. Master Pan is still waiting."
"No, no." Yang Dafu fell to the ground, covering his face and crying loudly.
A few yamen servants came up and wanted to pull him away, but Mu Qingshan had already helped him up: "It may not be true, Boss Yang should go and have a look first."
"It's not my daughter-in-law, how could my daughter-in-law die." Yang Dafu lost control of his emotions, and grabbed Mu Qingshan's arm with his backhand: "You also said that those people will not kill my daughter-in-law, no!"
Shang Yunze frowned slightly, and pulled Mu Qingshan to his side.
That guy? The yamen servant heard the clue: "Which group, explain the matter clearly!"
Yang Dafu squatted on the ground, covering his head and crying silently.
"Who are you?" The yamen guard stared at Shang Yunze and Mu Qingshan vigilantly.
"People passing by." Shang Yunze said.
"Follow us all back to the government office!" Realizing that these two people might be related to the case, and seeing that Shang Yunze was wearing a sword around his waist, the government office servant also pulled out his sword with a clatter.
"Okay." Shang Yunze nodded: "We'll go back with you." According to what Yang Dafu said earlier, this matter seems to be really not easy.
Yang's bakery shop is not far from the yamen, just two street corners away. Although it was already dark, there were still many people on the street, and it seemed that they were quite surprised to see Yang Dafu being brought into the government office.
"My lord, I have brought them here." The yamen servant said, "There are also two suspicious-looking foreigners who have also been brought here."
"Bring it in!" Pan Tai said solemnly, Wen Liunian sat beside him to hear the trial, but he didn't expect to see Shang Yunze and Mu Qingshan when he looked up.
"My lord." Mu Qingshan said.
"Why are Master and Master Shang here?" Wen Liunian was surprised, "And why were they brought to the government office?"
Mu Qingshan said: "We originally wanted to buy a few pastries for the adults and then go back, but we didn't expect to encounter an accident at the house of the shopkeeper Yang."
Pan Tai was also a little confused: "How many... do you know each other?"
Yang Dafu only took a look at the white cloth, then lay down on his stomach and burst into tears, Mu Qingshan squatted beside him and said cautiously: "Is it really Madam Ling?"
Yang Dafu was choked up crying.
Shang Yunze played tricks on Wen Liunian slightly.
"Master Pan." Wen Liunian turned around, "You stay here to appease this shopkeeper Yang, and we will try the case after I come back."
"I will follow orders." Pan Tai nodded repeatedly, and ordered his servants to pour hot tea for Yang Dafu.
Wen Liunian and Shang Yunze went out together, and went to the empty room next door.
"I'm afraid this matter is not that simple." Shang Yunze said.
"What did Lord Shang discover?" Wen Liunian asked.
"Before the official road was widened, Panjia Town was originally the place where Wangcheng marched south." Shang Yunze said, "plus there are many fields around, so more than a hundred years ago, the people in this town developed An ancient method of making marching rations, sophora japonica is evolved from marching rations. It is said that as long as it is properly preserved, it will not go bad even if it is left for a few months."
"So?" Wen Liunian sat at the table.
"Later, the new official roads near here were built, and the waterways and canals were dug, and the military status of Panjia Town was gradually weakened. Later, the territory of Chu State became larger and larger, and the army had no more rations. Necessary for going on the road." Shang Yunze said, "Although the marching food is convenient to feed the hunger, it is really not delicious, so this craft is gradually lost, and now in this Panjia Town, there is only one woman named Pan Zhen If she knows how to make it, she is the proprietress of the Huaihua bakery shop in the Yang family."
Wen Liunian was thoughtful.
"We also inquired before that Yang Dafu and his wife have lived here for generations. They are honest and will not have any enmity." Mu Qingshan said, "A few days ago, Yang Dafu was away from home, and a man came to the door. I asked Pan Zhen for the method of making marching rations, and the price was extremely high."
"Has this deal been completed?" Wen Liunian asked.
"En." Mu Qingshan nodded, "Pan Zhen told all the secret recipes, and after the other party left the money, she told them to keep it secret, even Lao Yang couldn't tell. But Pan Zhen always listened to men in everything, and the husband and wife He has a very good relationship, so when Yang Dafu came back, he secretly told him about it."
"Nine times out of ten to prepare for the marching rations." Wen Liunian said, "Qingqiu's people?"
Shang Yunze nodded: "It's probably not wrong." Otherwise, in today's prosperous Qing Dynasty, who would spend such a large amount of money to buy a secret recipe for dim sum that is completely unpalatable
"It's really lingering." Wen Liunian shook his head, "If our guess is correct, then we probably bought the secret recipe first, and after confirming that it can be made, we went back and kidnapped and killed Pan Zhen, so that this matter would become a reality. Forever a secret."
"There is a shroud shop next door to Sophora Blossom Bread Shop." Mu Qingshan said, "The proprietress inside has also seen strange men come and go in and out of the Bread Shop. It happened to be the time when Lao Yang was away, so he should be the one who wanted to buy the secret recipe. Because of this, after Pan Zhen disappeared, rumors that she eloped with others appeared in the city."
Wen Liunian nodded.
"How did your lord come here, where is Master Zhao?" Shang Yunze asked.
Mentioning this matter, Wen Liunian's mood fell instantly: "We originally came to find King Qijue, but we accidentally lost the red armored wolf."
"Ah?" Mu Qingshan was surprised.
lost
Wen Liunian shook his head and stood up: "Forget it, there are already many people looking for it, so it's useless to worry, I'll go and see Yang Dafu."
Zhao Yue pushed the door open and came in.
"Found it?" Wen Liunian asked hastily.
Zhao Yue smiled and stretched out his hand in front of him.
A little shiny thing was glowing red.
Wen Liunian was overjoyed at first, but after seeing it clearly, he was puzzled: "Is it this one?" Why does it look... smaller and have a different shape.
Zhao Yue said: "It's the other one."
"The other one?" Wen Liunian didn't realize it for a while.
There was a rustle in the sleeve, and then a pair of small tentacles protruded.
The red-armored wolf crawled out joyfully, the speed is simply fast!
Wen Liunian was full of surprise.
The red-armored wolf swished onto his hand, shaking its tentacles desperately!
I'm back!
Wen Liunian rubbed his fingers against his carapace, almost crying - as if he would never be found.
"Okay, okay, I found it this time, and I won't lose it next time." Zhao Yue showed him another red-armored wolf, "I also brought a profit."
The red-armored wolf in the back obviously wanted to stay for a long time, and was already sound asleep at this moment.
"Didn't it mean that it is only found in Yunnan?" Wen Liunian put the two red-armored wolves together.
"Who knows, probably someone brought it from Yunnan." Zhao Yue took out the small wooden box and put the two small things in it, "What about you, how is the case going?"
"It's a bit complicated." Wen Liunian and Mu Qingshan looked at each other, and told him roughly what happened just now.
"It's related to Qingqiu again?" Zhao Yue really frowned after hearing this.
"It's just a guess, but there's no one else except him for the marching rations." Wen Liunian said, "It's okay to fight on land, but if it's a naval battle, how to make food that can be preserved for a long time is very important."
"Qingqiu wants to fight the emperor at sea?" Zhao Yue said.
"Not only the Emperor, but maybe the King of Ming." Wen Liunian said, "But the other side is too vigilant, whether it's Wangcheng or this Panjia Town, I'm afraid they won't be easily found by us."
"Do you want to stay here to judge the case?" Mu Qingshan asked.
"It would be best if we can stay, but there will be a celebration in the royal city, I'm afraid I can't miss it." Wen Liunian said, "Master, can you do me a favor?"
"Naturally." Mu Qingshan nodded, "Does your lord want us to stay here?"
"En." Wen Liunian said, "Firstly, to protect Yang Dafu, and secondly, to see if there are other clues. When the ceremony in the royal city is over, I will hurry back."
"Okay." Mu Qingshan agreed, "Your Excellency, just go, we will always stay in this town."
In the lobby of the government office, Yang Dafu was so sad that he fainted from crying. Pan Tai ordered someone to take him down to rest for the time being, and cleaned up a guest room for Wen Liunian, while Shang Yunze and Mu Qingshan lived in temporarily. The inn opposite the government office.
"There are so many things." Mu Qingshan sighed.
"Do you want to stay here?" Shang Yunze poured him a cup of tea, "Before, I was thinking about going to Wangcheng to watch the excitement."
"There's been a murder case, so naturally this place is more important." Mu Qingshan said, "Besides, it's also related to King Daming, so it's even more careless."
"It's okay." Shang Yunze hugged him into his arms, "There will be opportunities in the future."
"En." Mu Qingshan lay on his shoulder, feeling quite at ease.
Xiao Er quickly brought hot water, and the tub was not too big, it could only hold one person.
Shang Yunze hugged him and put him in.
"Hot!" Mu Qingshan's whole body turned red.
"It's better to be hot." Shang Yunze wiped his body with a handkerchief, "Hands and feet are cold, and you still kick me in the middle of the night."
Mu Qingshan giggled.
Shang Yunze said: "Before I slept clearly, I was very honest." Why did she start rolling around as soon as she got married.
"I don't know." Mu Qingshan thought for a while, "Probably because if he rolled around before, he would fall off the bed." Now that there are people around him, it is naturally different, how comfortable it is.
"Unreasonable." Shang Yunze wrapped him up and dried him, "Okay, go to sleep."
Mu Qingshan hugged the quilt and looked at him.
"Are you going to do something bad again?" Shang Yunze approached.
"No." Mu Qingshan tilted his head, blushing.
"Really don't want it?" Shang Yunze sat by the bed, "Think about it again, I'm not expensive, just a lot of money at a time."
Mu Qingshan laughed out loud: "Not even a penny."
"That's it." Shang Yunze bowed his head and kissed him, "Okay, it doesn't matter if I owe you first."
Really... very easy to talk to.
And in the government office, Wen Liunian was lying on the bed, looking at the bugs on the back of his hand.
Two little bugs.
They were all bathed and scented, and they were extremely clean.
"It's time to sleep." Zhao Yue said, "Let's play tomorrow."
Wen Liunian packed the red-armored wolf into a mahogany box, then placed it upright on the pillow, covered it with his hands, and then closed his eyes with peace of mind.
Zhao Yue froze: "Then where am I going to sleep?"
Wen Liunian said: "The floor."
Zhao Yue: "..."
The red-armored wolf was lying in the mahogany box, happily rubbing its tentacles with its new little friend.
Happy!
Early the next morning, Wen Liunian and Zhao Yue returned to Wangcheng, leaving Shang Yunze and Mu Qingshan to continue guarding Yang Dafu.
Chu Yuan had already returned to the palace and was looking through the memorial in the imperial study when he suddenly heard that Wen Liunian was asking to see him.
Chief Sixi said: "Miss Wen looks like a busy person, so it should be something urgent."
"Xuan." Chu Yuan put down the notebook in his hand.
"Your Majesty." Wen Liunian opened the door and came in, "The minister is back."
"Is it to go to Panjia Town to pass on King Qijue?" Chu Yuan said, "Sixi has already informed me about this matter. Thank you for your hard work."
"There is nothing wrong with King Qijue." Wen Liunian said, "But there is something wrong in Panjiazhen."
"Oh?" Chu Yuan said, "What's the matter?"
Wen Liunian briefly explained the matter of Yang Dafu and his wife.
"It's just insane." Chu Yuan was really furious.
"Tomorrow King Qijue will lead his subordinates into the royal city. The first day of the ceremony is also the deadline promised to those jugglers." Wen Liunian said, "No matter how big or small, they should take action, and look at Panjiazhen's posture , this time I am afraid that there are not a few people coming from the other party, we still have to be careful."
"I'm afraid they will act." Chu Yuan sneered, "I'm afraid they will keep shrinking like this, and they don't even dare to show their faces."
Wen Liunian nodded: "Commander Xiang has already laid a net, as long as the other party wants to make trouble, he will definitely catch them all."
After coming out of the palace, she smelled a scent when she came home. Mrs. Wen was busy in the kitchen, while Wen Rumo was sitting in the small courtyard, asking Zhao Yue about Pan's town.
"Corpse?" Wen Rumo's hands shook.
"That's right." Zhao Yue sighed, "I found it by the river, a woman beyond recognition, and the villain is really devoid of conscience."
Wen Rumo put down the cup calmly: "That's true."
"Daddy!" Wen Liunian suddenly threw himself on his back.
"Ah!" Wen Rumo was taken aback.
"Ah." Mrs. Wen was also terrified in the kitchen, and hurriedly dropped the spoon and came out to see what happened.
"Father, are you okay?" Wen Liunian waved his hands in front of him.
Zhao Yue was also quite worried.
"Master?" Mrs. Wen shook him.
"It's okay." Wen Rumo's face turned slightly pale.
"What did you do? You scared your father like this." Mrs. Wen was dissatisfied and complained about her son while helping her master to calm down.
"I didn't do anything." Wen Liunian was very dazed. He used to make surprises like this before, and his father was obviously very happy, and he would hold his hands high when he was a child.
"It's okay, it's okay." Wen Rumo waved his hands repeatedly.
"What were you talking about just now?" Wen Liunian asked.
Before Wen Rumo could stop it, Zhao Yue said, "The bizarre murder in Panjia Town."
Wen Rumo: "..."
"No wonder." Wen Liunian said, "Daddy is most afraid of these things, so don't talk about it in the future."
"Cough!" Wen Rumo coughed hard.
"Uncle forgive me." Zhao Yue tactfully passed the steps, "I said it was too horrible, and it shocked my uncle."
"Really, pay more attention next time." Mrs. Wen also scolded the two of them, and then helped her master back to the room to rest. Wen Liunian asked Zhao Yue in a low voice: "Is it really scary?"
"No." Zhao Yue said, "I just said that there was a female corpse beyond recognition, and you ran in."
"It's fine, what are you talking about." Wen Liunian grabbed his ears.
"Uncle wants to ask." Zhao Yue said, "Can't you say?"
"No, but Dad is most afraid of hearing about a murder case." Wen Liunian said, "He is timid, and when he was a child, Grandpa would always scare him with ghosts, and he would fall into trouble after he came and went."
Zhao Yue: "..."
"Anyway, don't talk about it again." Wen Liunian reminded, "Do you know?"
Zhao Yue nodded immediately.
One is afraid of insects and the other is afraid of murder, they are really... father and son.
The state of Chu has a vast land and resources, and there are not a few small subordinate states around it. Apart from Duan Baiyue, the King of the Southwest who has been rumored countless in recent years, the most famous one is the Qijue Kingdom—even though I have never been there, everyone is saying that this The small oasis country located in the desert is extremely prosperous, the treasury is full of gold, silver and jewels, and all the people are laughing and laughing. And Qijue King Mu Hanye is said to be a man like a god. Not only is he tall and handsome, his eyes are like a blue star, his martial arts are strong and he can govern the country well, he has a close personal relationship with the well-known Palace Master Chasing Shadow in the Jianghu, and he is also an out-and-out—— Love saint, not only does not dislike her queen being a desert sand fox who has cultivated to become a spirit, but also goes to great lengths to seek medical treatment and medicine only to be able to stay together forever. It sounds like she can't help but shed tears.
In the evening of that day, when Wen Liunian finished his meal and went to the street with Zhao Yue to relax, he saw that some picture scrolls and books about Mr. Shen and himself on both sides of the street had been removed, and replaced by Mu Hanye, the king of Qijue. And Huang Yuan—that is the richest country in the desert, if King Qi Jue was happy to see it, he might throw money directly.
Wen Liunian paused, looking at the several feet high portrait of Mu Hanye in front of him, feeling a little stunned.
It is not easy to find such a large wooden frame for mounting.
"Tomorrow will probably be a whole day of excitement." Zhao Yue said.
"There are a lot of things going on recently, so it's better if it's more lively." Wen Liunian said, "I'm so angry."
"Aren't you afraid that something will happen?" Zhao Yue asked.
"Doing evil is nothing more than to make the people uneasy and not live a good life. If they are afraid, it is just as they want." Wen Liunian said, "The soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth, and the court has deployed defenses in secret. You can't stop the people from cheering and celebrating."
"That's true." Zhao Yue smiled, "Shanhaiju is ahead, do you want to have a cup of tea?"
"En." Wen Liunian nodded, "Tired."
Zhao Yue tactfully picked him up.
Wen Liunian smiled and talked in his ear, looking really affectionate.
Teach people to be envious.
"Sir." In Shanhaiju, Wuying stretched his neck and looked down, "Didn't you say that there was something urgent, so you couldn't practice kung fu last night? Why are you wandering around behind your back behind Mr. Wen's back?"
"Eat your broad beans!" Wu Feng knocked on his head.
"I'll ask him tonight." Yun Duanhun poured tea, "What happened to the matter I asked you to inquire about?"
"Toads are everywhere, and green radish toads are hard to find." Wuying said, "Many people have been sent out, and they will report back as soon as there is news."
"It's really not easy to find the legendary medicine." Wufeng said, "If you want to cure the young master's internal injuries, do you really need this thing?"
Yun Duanhun nodded.
"The genius doctor who ranks first in the world today is in Wangcheng, and he has a good personal relationship with Mr. Wen." Wuying said, "Why don't you let him take a look for the young master first?"
"You mean Ye Jin?" Yun Duanhun's subordinates paused slightly.
"Yes." Wuying said, "It is said that the dead can be healed, and he has a very good temper, and never gets angry. Apart from reading medical books every day, he cooks, washes, and takes care of his son at home for the martial arts leader Shen Qianfeng."
"..." Wufeng frowned, "Where did you hear that part?"
Wuying replied: "Jianghu tabloids."
"Don't watch those messy things in the future!" Wu Feng knocked on his head.
"Young Master and Lord Wen are still up there." Wu Ying took it out of his arms.
Yun Duanhun stretched out his hand to take it: "I don't need to look for Ye Jin for now."
"Why?" Wuying was puzzled - he was clearly worried about the young master, shouldn't he have resolved it earlier.
Yun Duanhun shook his head, casually flipping through the tabloids in his hand.
Zhao Yue happened to go up the stairs with Wen Liunian, and they met each other twice. Mr. Wen saw the big black characters in the inscription - Tianjie Lingering Erotic History, so he was decisively shocked.
It turns out that King Daming still has such hobbies.
*****
After seeing Wen Liu, Wuying's first reaction was to hide the tabloid, but Yunduanhun hadn't read it yet, so he didn't know how sexy and hot the descriptions were in it, it was just an ordinary folktale , so he folded it casually and put it in his sleeve in front of everyone.
Wuying: "..."
Zhao Yue: "..."
"Senior." Wen Liunian greeted with a smile, "Come and eat."
Yun Duanhun nodded: "The sweet-scented osmanthus braised goose here is delicious."
"Can I share a table with the three of you?" Wen Liunian asked again.
Wuying wondered, why does this Mr. Wen know him so well every time
Yun Duanhun said: "There are still many vacancies in this store."
Wen Liunian pulled out the chair and sat down: "Oh."
Wuying: "..."
"Can I eat it?" Wen Liunian looked at the plate of dim sum on the table again.
Yun Duanhun nodded: "Naturally."
Zhao Yue apologized a little: "This table invites three people."
"The shopkeeper is being polite, it's just a snack." Yun Duanhun smiled, "Master Wen doesn't seem to have much dinner tonight."
Wen Liunian picked up the second piece of snack, and said cheekily: "Senior is really astute, may I ask for your name?"
"My surname is Li." Yun Duanhun said, "The single name is four characters."
Wen Liunian praised: "As soon as you hear it, you know it's a good name."
Yun Duanhun smiled and said, "Master Wen, thank you."
The other three people at the table were a little puzzled. What is the meaning of this conversation
"Steamed goose with sweet-scented osmanthus is here." Xiaoer served the dishes on a tray and warmed a pot of Nurhong.
Wuying's eyes glowed, and his stomach growled.
"Eat it while it's hot." Yun Duanhun patted him on the head, his eyes showed the kindness that his parents were used to.
Wufeng also helped him adjust the sauce, and the people at the table seemed to be kind and filial, brothers and friends.
Zhao Yue also ordered a pot of hot tea for Wen Liunian, along with some snacks.
"Young master likes this very much?" Wen Liunian asked.
"Yeah." Wuying nodded with the goose in his mouth—too many words can make mistakes, this Mr. Wen doesn't seem to be easy to deal with, so it's better to speak less.
"If that's the case, then I'll order the cook to prepare it tomorrow and send one to the house." Wen Liunian was very forthright.
"My lord, you don't need to be so troublesome." Wufeng said, "If Ah Ying wants to eat, we will come again."
"I'm afraid there will be many guests in Shanhaijuzhong tomorrow, so it's far better to have dinner at home quietly." Wen Liunian reminded.
"Why?" Yun Duanhun asked.
"Because King Qijue wants to enter the city, this is the only way to go." Wen Liunian said, "There will definitely be a lot of people watching the fun, and the government will also come to guard when the time comes, so that no villains will take advantage of the opportunity to do evil."
"I see." Yun Duanhun nodded.
"There are quite a few people with ulterior motives in this world. In the past, as long as there were celebrations in the royal city, no matter how big or small, there would always be some troubles. I'm afraid this time will be no exception." Wen Liunian held his teacup, "If you don't want to be Innocent being implicated, it is better to stay at home."
Yun Duanhun smiled: "Thank you for reminding me, my lord, I've never been a person who likes to join in the fun. If that's the case, then I won't go out."
Wen Liunian's cheeks bulged: "Very good, very good."
After eating most of the plate of dim sum, Wen Liunian went downstairs belching satisfied, and walked back slowly with Zhao Yue.
"Sir." Wu Ying looked at the backs of the two of them, "Is this Mr. Wen specially here to remind us not to go out tomorrow?"
Yun Duanhun nodded slightly.
"Could it be something you guessed?" Wuying frowned, "Or did the young master tell him something?"
Yun Duanhun raised his head and drank a glass of wine.
"Mister personally taught the young master kung fu, it is already a personal risk." Wufeng said, "Although the young master is a man in the Jianghu, Mr. Wen is an official of the imperial court. It is said that he is very important. If you notice any clues, report it to the emperor of Chu , I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble."
Yun Duanhun shook his head: "This person is not simple."
Wuying said: "But Mister hasn't dealt with him much." If it is not easy to eat, it would be more believable.
Yun Duanhun seemed to think of something, and took out the Jianghu tabloid from his sleeve.
Wuying: "..."
Yun Duanhun opened it casually, and saw that the two were doing cloud and rain in the garden, and a lot of gold powder was sprinkled on the picture.
Turning the page again, it was a different posture.
The rest of the diners whispered to each other when they saw it, they looked dignified, and they were a little older, why did they sit on the stairs while watching these things in large crowds.
Really tut tut tut tut.
So this night, Wuying honestly knelt in the hall all night, feeling very depressed.
It is clear that Mr. himself wants to rummage.
At midnight, Zhao Yue still went to the outskirts of the city to practice, and did not return to Wenfu until dawn.
Wen Liunian was sleepy, sitting on the bed and putting on clothes.
"When is this?" Zhao Yue said, "What are you doing?"
"It's time to enter the palace." Wen Liunian yawned, "There are a lot of things to prepare for today's Royal City Ceremony, I'll go and see where I need help."
"You are not the only one in the palace, and this matter is not your business." Zhao Yue frowned, "Sleep for a while."
"Alright." Wen Liunian listened to persuasion, quickly closed his eyes and got under the covers.
It's really very sleepy, it doesn't matter if you come to the palace later.
It's still important to sleep.
