Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 78

[Chapter 49: I, Lin Chengyou, don’t like it…]

The three sisters and brothers returned to the inner courtyard, and ChunRong crept up to meet them and said, “Madame is too tired on the road, and she just fell asleep in the back room.” The

three of them were afraid that entering the room would wake Madame Du, so they sat side by side on the steps under the porch and whispered.

“I don’t know if Ji is really getting better, tomorrow I have to go to Hu Mansion to see him.” Du Shaotang looked at the falling flowers on the ground in front of the court with pity.

Teng Yuyi turned the grass in his hand and said suddenly, “Sister, if you don’t go back to your house in the next few days.” “What

do you mean by that?” The sisters and brothers wondered.

“If you think about it, Lin Chengyou would not easily hit the grass and startle the snake if he was not completely sure, and I suspect that he must have found something before he suddenly asked Lu Zhao’an about the illness of Prince Hu.” Hu Gongzi and Lu Zhao’an did not have a deep hatred, at best they knew his true conduct, and if this illness was really related to Lu Zhao’an, Lu Zhao’an must have been afraid of his own reputation being damaged. “It’s

also too—”

“It’s too harsh isn’t it?” Teng Yuyi snorted, “Although Lu Zhao’an said that he won the Jinshi, he has not yet passed the imperial court’s system (Note 1), and it is still inconclusive whether he can enter the Shi and what official position he can get after entering the Shi. If At this time, Hu Gongzi jumped out and said that Lu Zhaoan’s appearance was inconsistent, would you say that Lu Zhaoan’s reputation would not be damaged? His family was so poor that he relied on borrowing money everywhere to get enough to enter the capital, and it was not easy to win the jinshi, how could he make a mistake at this time. Du Shaotang pondered

for a moment and said in a hateful voice, “Actually, this little man can’t do anything for his own future.”

“I’m not worried about anything else now, I’m worried about him having a bad heart for Sister A.”

“But the time of this villain is not short, and I have not seen him do any shady actions against Sister A.”

Teng Yuyi remembered the man’s boot print next to his cousin’s corpse in his previous life, and said, “Don’t forget that the origin of the tree demon has not yet been clarified, and Lu Zhaoan may not want to move, he is just sure that the Du family will not come forward to accuse him for the sake of fame for the time being.” Moreover, he could not find a suitable opportunity, Sister Ah had been recuperating at home since the last time she was attacked by the tree demon, and a while ago, because she was hiding from the corpse evil, she went to the Great Hidden Temple for a few days. Lu Zhaoan couldn’t even figure out his cousin’s whereabouts, how to find an opportunity to start. Shao Tang, don’t you know what Lu Zhaoan cares most about right now? “The

court’s system? Or-” ”

The Zheng family’s affair.” Du Tinglan opened his mouth plainly.

Teng Yuyi quietly looked at Sister A: “Zheng Shu is now the official residence of the prime minister, Lu Zhaoan wants to ascend to the heavens in one step, and there is no faster way than marrying Zheng Shuangyin directly.” However, according to my opinion, Zheng Shuangyin’s attitude towards this family affair seems to be not much different from the previous one, yesterday the empress wanted to draw up a new name for the academy, if Zheng Shuangyin wanted to marry Lu Zhaoan, most of them would be perfunctory, but she not only actively dedicated her name, but also came up with such a good name as ‘East Tour’, I guess this news reached Lu Zhaoan’s ears, it will definitely make him sit in trouble, the two family affairs have not yet been decided, in case Zheng Shuangyin changes his mind, Lu Zhaoan’s wishful thinking will be in vain. Du Shaotang’s

face was confused: “A while ago, the Zheng family didn’t like Lu Zhao’an very much, and the same window of the Guozijian said that Zheng Shujie wanted to recruit Lu Jinshi to be the son-in-law of the East Bed.” “At

the Poetry Meeting of the Chengwang Palace, Zheng Shuangyin really cared about Lu Zhao’an, but when the corpse evil came that night, perhaps because she paid too much attention to Lu Zhao’an’s every move, she would realize that this person’s character was not good enough, she was a smart person, and after going back, she must have thought about the events of that night, thinking about these days, maybe she had been shaken.” However, in Lu Zhaoan’s view, these times Sister Ah has had contacts with Zheng Shuangyin, he is such a villain, will not repent of his own conduct, will only suspect that Sister A corrupted him in front of Zheng Shuangyin, if he is angry with Sister A, he must not be eager to do something. “That’s

why you want Sister Ah to live in the mansion?”

Teng Yuyi admitted: “The imperial court reopened the Yunyin Academy, and the whole body was moved, and it was not unusual for the Zheng family to make any move at this moment in order to figure out the holy will, Lu Zhaoan was afraid that Zheng Shuangyin would participate in the selection of relatives in the clan room, and he must hope to settle this family affair as soon as possible.” Hu Gongzi’s illness came strangely, and I was worried that he would use the same method against Sister Ah.

Du Shaotang straightened his thin chest: “Jade cousin, rest assured, I am also old, I will not let that little person hurt Sister A.”

Du Tinglan frowned slightly: “You are still young, what a hilarity.”

Teng Yuyi knew that his aunt and cousin were used to hiding Shao Tang under his wings, and never let him receive half a bit of wind and rain, and said busily: “Sister, Shao Tang is not small, he is the son of Du’s family, he should have learned to set up a household at the top of the door, let him practice a few more times, maybe he can change the problem of crying.” Oh, Shao Tang, this one is for you. “What

is this?” Shao Tang blushed and took the bald pen handed by Teng Yuyi.

“This is the magic weapon of the Eastern Ming Temple, which can be used to deal with demons, tomorrow when you go to Hu Mansion to visit Hu Jizhen, remember to take this with you.” From tomorrow onwards, I will let Hochu follow you. In the future, when I am not convenient to go out and walk around, you should pay more attention to the movements of Lin Chengyou and Lu Zhao’an. ”

Hochu?” Du Shaotang’s eyes lit up, “Is it the big brother who is very good at martial arts?”

Teng Yuyi smiled: “In the future, whatever you want to do, you can tell him to do, but he is just a guard, I don’t know if it’s right or wrong, I can’t make up my mind for you, you have to learn to plan the overall situation, and you can think about it in your heart before you open your mouth.”

Du Shaotang jumped down the steps happily: “I know, rest assured Jade Cousin.”

Du Tinglan looked thoughtfully at his brother’s wind-like figure and did not speak for a while.

At this time, Mrs. Du came out of the house and was about to reprimand her son, “You are steady”, Du Tinglan stood up and took his mother’s arm: “Ah Niang leave him alone, he is so old, he knows the weight.” In the

past few days, Teng Shao has been busy transporting military food and has not returned to the house, Du’s mother and son have left after eating, but Du Tinglan has stayed.

After the sisters bathed, Bi Luo and Chun Rong took a towel to help wipe their wet hair.

Bi Luo looked down at the small golden bell on Teng Yuyi’s wrist and couldn’t help but say, “Niangzi didn’t say last time that she wanted to return this bell to Qingyun Guan, it’s been a few days, and there is no way to take it off.”

Du Tinglan was stunned, “This is the Qingyun Viewing Instrument?” I thought it was a new piece of jewelry.

Teng Yuyi said vaguely, “Last time when I was catching the corpse evil, this thing was put on me as a warning, but then I somehow couldn’t take it off, so it was temporarily placed on me.”

Du Tinglan did not like to ask questions, nodded his head and stopped talking.

The sisters changed their nightgowns, one holding a book and reading in front of the lamp, and the other ran to the small study next to the door to make a name for the little red horse.

Under the window, a pot of pear blossoms was lit, the quiet breath slowly drifted, and the soft light of the sheep horn lamp spilled down, covering everything in the room with a light golden veil.

Chunrong and the others finished cleaning the room, took incense cakes to give Teng Yuyi’s personal ornaments incense, from the veil to shoes and socks, each piece was made of roses as incense, just smell it, you know that it is Teng Yuyi’s personal belongings.

Du Tinglan looked up and said, “Chun Rong, you found out Ayu’s embroidered veil and gave it to me, and Gui Mi said that she liked the stitches of the embroidery, and asked me to borrow it back to see.”

Teng Yuyi had just returned from his study and heard this.

Chun Rong smiled bitterly: “That veil can’t be found for a long time.”

Du Tinglan was surprised: “In the first few days, my sister still saw my sister use this veil, when did she lose it?” “It was

lost in the days of the Cai Feng Lou, and there were many people in that place, and when they came back, they disappeared.”

Teng Yuyi pretended to be calm and stepped into the house, and the veil was first smeared by her saliva to wipe the corpse blood on Lin Chengyou’s neck, and then Lin Chengyou took away the bird’s beak that bound the golden-clad prince, and it was estimated that it was thrown in a corner of the Caifeng Building at that time, and nowIt’s turned into a pile of mud.

It is a pity to say that this veil was sewn by a famous embroidery lady in Jiangnan, and the color and stitches are extraordinary, no wonder Sister A will pay attention.

“There are so many veils, and there are several similar stitches, so you can find one for Sister A.” Sister, I was sleepy, and I slept first. Fearing that Du Tinglan would continue to ask questions, she yawned and walked to the bed.

Du Tinglan: “Your horse’s name is good?” Teng Yuyi had

a serious face: “I’m dizzy now, I can’t think of a good name, it’s my baby, I plan to sleep well and then plan to do it.”

Du Tinglan couldn’t help but laugh.

Teng Yuyi was just about to lie down, and Bi Luo came in and said that Cheng Bo was coming.

Teng Yuyi was busy putting on his coat and leaving the house.

Du Tinglan held the book and read it for a while, and vaguely heard someone talking outside, and he didn’t know what Cheng Bo was going to tell him, so he didn’t see Teng Yuyi come back for a long time.

She felt a little uneasy in her heart, changed her clothes and walked outside, and when she looked up, she saw Cheng Bo and Teng Yuyi standing at the round table talking.

There were several objects on the table, all kinds of curiosities, full of brilliance.

“This is the best thing in the storehouse in the house, if the lady still can’t see it, she can only wait for the old slave to search for it again, but the treasure is not something that can be collected casually, and I am afraid that the lady will not be able to wait.” Cheng Bo said, turning his head to look at Du Tinglan, and said busily, “Du Niangzi.”

Du Tinglan approached: “Is this a gift?” Teng Yuyi

frowned and nodded, looking extremely dissatisfied with what was on the table.

Du Tinglan was very surprised, just that Seven Treasure Partridge Pillow was an extraordinary product, why was Ayu still worried? Suddenly remembering what my sister said yesterday, I realized, “Do you want to give a gift to the King of Chun’an County?” Cheng Bo said: “The

gift to the king of Chun’an County has been prepared, His Highness the King of the County loves to drink tea, and His Highness may not be willing to accept it, and the old slave has prepared a few cans of freshly picked Lingxi Shangjia good tea, which will be sent to Du Mansion tomorrow.”

Du Tinglan was stunned, this time it was Grandpa who came out to ask for bath soup for the King of Chun’an County, and to thank the King of Chun’an County, of course, he could only fake Grandpa.

She remembered that time, in order to thank Lin Chengyou’s Six Yuan Dan, Grandpa specially prepared two generous gifts, one to Qingyun Temple, one to the Chun’an County King’s Palace, although His Highness the County King confiscated the gift, but the good villain personally received Grandpa, Lin Chengyou’s side, neither accepted the gift, nor let Grandpa enter the door.

Grandpa’s face was thin, and after touching the wall several times in succession, he didn’t have the good sense to go to Qingyun Temple again.

She looked at the few cans of tea on the table and nodded her head in admiration, Ayu acted very differently from Grandpa, either not sending or sending it to people’s hearts.

“The ceremony has already been chosen, why are you still worried?”

“There’s another person’s gift that wasn’t chosen.”

“Who?”

“Become a king and a son.”

Teng Yuyi did not dare to mention that Xiao Ya finally used Lin Chengyou’s bath soup, only said: “Cai Feng Lou that time if it were not for Lin Chengyou to help eliminate the demon, my little life is estimated to have been in the hands of the corpse evil, last time Grandpa confessed to Cheng Bo to prepare for a generous gift to personally thank you, the result was delayed in catching up with the birthday of the guozhang, tonight Cheng Bo actually prepared things properly, but Sister You also know, ordinary objects Lin Chengyou may not be able to look at it.” If we send something practical, we don’t know anything about Lin Chengyou’s likes and dislikes.

Teng Yuyi sighed.

Du Tinglan suddenly realized, no wonder yesterday in the room muttering about gifts, she was busy helping her sister come up with ideas: “If you want to send wine, you can’t go wrong, or do you want to send some Jiangnan famous sauce you brought from Yangzhou?”

Teng Yuyi shook his head: “The stone frozen spring I usually drink is also available in the palace.”

Du Tinglan thought for a moment: “Jingzhong Gui wants his children to play polo, do you want to send some riding equipment?” Teng Yuyi’s

eyes lit up slightly: “Cheng Bo, is there a high-grade saddle in the house?”

Cheng Bo smiled bitterly: “There are only two high-class saddles in the palace, one agate is inlaid with gold and jade, which is valuable enough, but it is not rare, and Chang’an said that there are three princes and ministers who use this saddle.” The other was studded with pearls and could only be used by women to ride.

Teng Yuyi frowned straightly: “It seems that you can only go to Ma Yuanxing to find it…”

Cheng Bo suddenly said, “There is something that can be used, but it is more troublesome.”

Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan glanced at each other: “What do you mean by that?”

Cheng Bo went to the storeroom to bring things, and the two of them understood at a glance. It was a large piece of rare purple jade, as colored as agate, and slightly reddish.

“This was rewarded by the saint when the old man repelled Tubo, and the old man wanted to use it as a saddle, but he felt that it was too extravagant, so he let the old slave put it in the storeroom, but later he never gave it up.”

Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan around the table sighed in amazement, jade is good jade, rare shape and size is suitable for saddle, and white jade is easy to obtain, purple jade is rare, such a large piece, is even rarer.

Teng Yuyi stopped and thought about it, vaguely remembering that Lin Chengyou was riding a white horse, and the white horse with a purple jade saddle was unique.

“That’s it!” Teng Yuyi patted the case, “Go find a good craftsman, make it for me in three days, the purple jade itself is beautiful enough, there is no need to add the floral coral agate.”

Cheng Bo smiled and said, “Even the best craftsman needs ten days and a half months.” I heard that the birthday of The King’s Son is next month, as long as it is sent out before that time.

Teng Yuyi waved his hand: “This ceremony is just to repay people’s feelings, Lin Chengyou’s birthday, we don’t want to join in the fun.” Cheng Bo, you will go to the best craftsmen in Chang’an tomorrow morning and send things as soon as possible.
After
arranging the gift, the sisters went back to their rooms and rested.

Sleeping until midnight, Teng Yuyi was suddenly woken up by a strange movement, she was very sleepy, trapped in the mattress and could not wake up, until she realized that it was the bell on her wrist, and suddenly opened her eyes.

“Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells…” The bells were lazy, and the collision was not fierce, but the experience of the last time had long been imprinted in the depths of Teng Yuyi’s heart, so it woke her up at once.

Her heart was pounding, Xuan Yin Bell would not warn for no reason, it seemed that there was an evil spirit coming, in a panic, she opened the curtain, and the moonlight outside the window was cold, looking no different from usual.

The bell suddenly rang a few times, Teng Yuyi turned his head in fear and looked at it, and Sister A’s brow frowned slightly, as if she was about to be woken up by the bell.

I don’t know whether this evil spirit came to her or to Sister A, according to past experience, eighty percent of it came at her, Sister A doesn’t understand Taoism, don’t be tired of her.

Teng Yuyi quietly took out Xiao Ya’s sword from under the pillow, fortunately, the bell was not fierce, she comforted herself, forgiveness is not a big monster, she has both Xiao Ya and the charm that the Saint Abandon zhi gave her, maybe she can quickly drive the other party away.

The body of the sword was a little hot, and it was obvious that Xiao Ya was also aware of it. She held her breath as she crossedThe bed, draped in a cloak, standing by the bed and looking out, the window screen floats quietly, the night wind is not weak, but the courtyard is like a curtain, and half a movement cannot be heard.

Could it be that that thing is not small? Teng Yuyi hesitated, suddenly felt the bell in her palm rolling more and more fiercely, seeing that she could not cover it, she gritted her teeth, walked down to the door and pulled the door open, as soon as she went out, she shivered, and it was as cold as winter outside.

Her chest rumbled and jumped, and she regretted that she had only a thin cloak on her body, and while holding her sword to identify the scene in the court, she shouted loudly.

At this moment, a strong smell of blood poured into the wind, and a young figure ran quickly before drying up, and before Teng Yuyi could see what it was, the black shadow slammed into her.

Teng Yuyi stabbed forward in a hurry, the thing disappeared in a flash, and before she could breathe a sigh of relief, there was a flurry of messy footsteps on her side, she turned her head to look at it, and took a breath of cool air in fright.

***

Lin Chengyou stayed in the palace until the evening before coming out, and the king and prince of Chun’an County traveled with Lin Chengyou.

The three of them laughed and left the palace, and met Gu Xian outside the Jianfu Gate, gu Xian was about to return to the Shangbin House of Hongxu Temple with a group of followers.

When Gu Xian heard that the three of them were going back to the Chengwang Palace, he said, “The old minister of the Nanzhao Kingdom went to Beijing to send tribute, and by the way brought me some fine wine, tonight I will come to do the East, and invite a few of his highnesses to taste the wine of our Nanzhao Country.” The

prince said, “Wonderful.” King

Chun’an Junwang opened his mouth: “The hour is not early, your Hongxu Temple is too far away, it is better to go to the Ada Mansion to make a fuss.”

Lin Chengyou smiled and said, “I can’t ask for it, I’m the only one in my house, I’m feeling cold and panicked, so let’s go.” When

the group passed the Dali Temple, Lin Chengyou turned over and dismounted.

The three of them looked at him at the horse, “What are you going to do?” “I went

in and inquired about a case, Uncle Emperor, you go back to the house first, and I’ll come later.”

Lin Chengyou remembered the story that Chen Erniang told and went straight inside.

That night, it was Yan Ji who was on duty, and he was a little surprised to see Lin Chengyou: “Lin Commenting is so late?

Lin Chengyou told the strange case in the same state capital.

Yan Ji was surprised: “I didn’t hear that.” Shizi, where did you hear about this case?

Lin Chengyou was a little confused, could it be that the little lady of the Chen family had misremembered?

He looked up at the bookshelf, on which were placed the case files handed over by the various provinces, usually only the suspicious cases that could not be solved by the local government would be submitted to the Dali Temple.

Perhaps the place of the crime is not in the same state.

“Have there been cases of pregnant women dying in other state capitals recently?” Lin Chengyou’s gaze moved upstream on the shelf.

Yan Ji shook his head straightly: “I have transcribed the suspicious cases submitted by various places in the past Three months, and I have never seen such strange cases.” Although it is cruel to cut the fetus by caesarean section, if the victim is only the couple, it is not a big case, and the local state government is afraid of falling into the reputation of ‘incompetent officials’, and may not be presented.

Lin Chengyou casually took a copy of the file, thought about it and closed the file, and smiled: “Well, maybe it’s just a rumor, and I’ll go back to the inn where the people of the same state live to inquire.” Tonight don’t bother Big Brother Yan’s office, go first. Saying

that, he left the Dali Temple and called Kuan Nu to him: “I asked you to verify The whereabouts of Hu Jizhen before the accident, have you verified it in the past few days?”

Kuan Nu handed the horse whip to Lin Chengyou and replied sharply: “On the twentieth day of March, guozi was not in school, and Hu Jizhen went out when he was dying, and he and three friends rushed to the Ci’en Temple to enjoy the peach blossoms, and the vegetarian meal was used in the temple at noon.”

When he came out of the temple, it was already the beginning of the day, and Hu Jizhen was still walking with three friends, and the four of them walked until they went to LiquanFang to part ways, which was about the end of the day. LiquanFang was only one street away from Yiningfang, and Hu Jizhen was riding a horse again, and if he went straight back to the house, he would not be able to get home in a single piece of work. However, Hu Jizhen returned to Hu Mansion at the end of the Shen Dynasty, and once he returned to Hu Mansion, he fell ill and remained unconscious ever since.

Lin Chengyou said: “I already know this, I never broke up with three friends at the end of the time, and when I returned home at the end of the Shen Dynasty, Hu Jizhen had two hours of unknown whereabouts.” I want you to inquire about Hu Jizhen recently mentioned that he wanted to find Lu Zhaoan, but did you inquire clearly? “The

people under Hu Fu had never heard Gongzi mention Lu Zhao’an as a person, but those friends had heard it several times, that time it was Jin shi fa fa, Hu Gongzi and his friends discussed Lu Zhaoan’s poems, and their words were full of admiration, and once they also said that they were going to visit Lu Zhao’an. But then suddenly stopped mentioning it, occasionally met Lu Zhaoan in some poems, Hu Gongzi never came forward to see the salute, friends still feel strange, because Hu Jizhen is the most humble and stable, such disrespect is a rare thing.

Lin Chengyou smiled sarcastically, Hu Ji was really a frank person, and once he was disgusted, he naturally could no longer make a respectful appearance.

He said: “Lu Zhaoan is now renting an old mansion in Puning Fang, on the day of the accident, Lu Zhaoan claimed to be attending a banquet at the British government of Xiuxiangfang, whether it is Puningfang or Xiuxiangfang, it is only one street away from Yiningfang, and there are many people at the banquet, if Lu Zhaoan leaves halfway to see Hu Jizhen, he will be able to return soon.” You have been stalking Lu Zhao’an these days, can you see that he has left the British government during the banquet?

Kuan Nu: “On that day, we left people at the front and back doors of the British gongfu, but the British gong had developed some strange problems in the early years of marching and fighting, and there were many secret doors in the garden for people to enter and exit, and it was not difficult for guests to hide their eyes and ears and go out of the house.” Unless you wrap up the outside of the British government, you can’t keep an eye on every corner, and the little people are afraid of being detected by the people in the British government, so-”

“So I don’t know?”

Kuan Nu said busily: “There are people in the British government who are specially guarding the secret door, as long as someone opens the secret door, it is not possible to hide from the British government, and the small one has already gone to find the steward of the British government, and there will be news tomorrow.”

Lin Chengyou turned on his horse: “This is not even close.” Kuan Nu had

a serious face: “Shizi, you have visited the door to see Hu Gongzi, is he bumping into evil or was he poisoned?” In my opinion, it seems to be alive and frightening.

Lin Chengyou frowned, “Without a soul, even if you wake up, you will become a fool.”

Kuan Nu was stunned: “Isn’t that the same as the Duchess an Guo who was haunted by a tree demon?” Lady An Guo was

possessed by the tree demon for too long, she could not survive, and she did not know what method Shizi had thought of to save her life in the end, but when she woke up, her sanity was not restored, and the whole person was demented, and even the closest people did not know. Rao was so, and An Guo Gong was also ecstatic.

This time, Hu Gongzi was only fourteen years old, and he heard that his homework was excellent, and if he became an idiot, it would be really embarrassing.

Lin Chengyou clings to the reins and thinks.

It is precisely because Mrs. An Guo has lost her sanity, there are still many mysteries to be solved in the case of the tree demon, and if Hu Jizhen cannot wake up, this matter cannot be investigated. The two things seem to have nothing to do with each other, but the way the clues are interrupted is also too similar.

“That’s right, Shizi.” Kuan Nu said, “The little one has found out, and the other group of people who are stalking Lu Zhao’an are the people of TengFu, and the steward of Tengfu is very skillful, looking for it.”The people who came were all raw faces, and on the surface had nothing to do with the Teng Mansion, so even we could not confirm the origin of those people at the beginning.

Lin Chengyou was not surprised at all, Teng Yuyi and his aunt’s family had a deep relationship, Lu Zhaoan treated the Du family lady like that, teng Yuyi did not deal with Lu Zhaoan before he had a ghost.

“Got it, leave her alone, just stare at it.”

Kuan Nu was stunned: “This–

Are you not afraid that the people of Teng Mansion will influence them to do things?”

Lin Chengyou had already changed the subject: “What has happened to Calyx in the past few days?”

Kuan Nu said: “Since the Cai Feng Lou was closed, Calyx has moved to an old mansion in Beiqu, the prostitutes under her have been redeemed, she has nothing to do, these days it is very idle, either to visit the old sisters, or to ride a donkey to the West Market people’s teeth to walk around, every time I see a beautiful bearded woman always have to come forward to ask for the price, like I want to buy some girls to return to the old business.”

Lin Chengyou smiled, and it sounded flawless.

“Has she found anyone else?”

“Nothing.”

Lin Chengyou nodded, “Don’t take it lightly, this woman may not be as simple as she looks, keep an eye on me, don’t make a mistake.”

“Yes.”

***

The Chengwang Mansion heard that the prince and others had come to dinner, and had already laid down a rich and fragrant meal.

Lin Chengyou sat down and drank a glass of wine, and Gu Xian asked Lin Chengyou, “I was just trying to ask you, what happened to that horse today?”

Lin Chengyou knowingly asked, “What horse?”

Gu Xian: “I don’t know about the other horses, but I have seen that red flame horse, this horse is untamed, how can it show kindness to the strange little lady who just met?”

Lin Chengyou: “I am also very curious, why not find another opportunity to ask it?”

Gu Xian: “I guess you didn’t identify any object for it, the horse likes that object, and then suddenly recognizes the Lord.”

Lin Chengyou smiled: “Where do I go to get any objects, and besides, these two horses were given to others by my aunt, can I help them confess the Lord?” The

prince was a kind man, busy helping to break the siege: “Gu Xian, this time I want to help Ah Da talk, these two are rare good horses, who is not the same, and then say that Ah Da and those little ladies do not know each other, how can they do tricks.” King

Chun’an smiled but did not say a word.

Gu Xian said calmly, “It was I who was reckless, offending shizi was small, offending those little ladies was big, I first punished myself three cups.”

Lin Chengyou said” “And slowly”, and it is indisputable to say that people bring the biggest wine glass: “Take this and want to be perfunctory?” If you want to punish this, you will punish this. Of course, Gu Xian refused to drink, and Lin Chengyou was willing to give up. The two were in a fight, and someone from the palace had arrived.

The queen sent a lot of mountains and treasures to the wrong place.

“They are all newly paid tribute from all over the world, and the saint and the lady said that Shizi was alone in the palace, and it was inevitable that he would not be able to eat and use it, so he specially picked the best ones and sent them, so that the house carefully ordered Shizi’s three meals a day, and the saint also advised: No matter how busy Dali Temple is, it is not allowed to eat less and miss food.” The palace man said softly.

Lin Chengyou smiled and responded.

The old palace man also said, “Your Highness asked Shizi to send Xuelian Dan to the palace earlier, and she will keep the li family lady.”

Lin Chengyou was stunned, almost forgot about this matter, if it wasn’t for helping Teng Yuyi get that little red horse last night, he wouldn’t need to add another bottle of Xuelian Dan. This thing was still locked in the treasure chest of the master, and it seemed that it had to be pried back into the lock.

“The nephew knows.”

The old palace man chong Chun An Junwang said, “The sage said that His Highness the Junwang has a unique handwriting in the world, and now that the academy has a new name, he wants to ask His Highness the Junwang to write the inscription idly.” Tomorrow, if Your Highness is free, please come to the palace. The

King of Chun’an County stood up and said, “Please rest assured Brother Emperor.” The

palace people said to the prince in a gentle voice, “Niangniang has something to ask Your Highness, so that Your Highness can return to the palace as soon as possible.” The

prince smiled bitterly and said, “Got it.”

Lin Chengyou and the others were feeling that the prince’s look was a little strange, so they listened to the palace people: “Her Royal Highness the Empress still has a word for Shi Zi: ‘Just after returning from the Ledao Mountain Villa, my aunt has a word to ask you while it is hot: You are also old, and you have seen so many young ladies in ledge Villa, but do you have a favorite?'” If you like it, tell your uncle and aunt earlier’. This time, it was

the turn of the prince and the others to laugh, and Lin Chengyou was embarrassed and immediately smiled: “Why did my aunt suddenly ask this, can I not say it?” The

palace people smiled, “Her Royal Highness the Empress is still waiting for the slave maid to reply.” “Nothing

.”

Miyajin: “Isn’t there a single one?”

Lin Chengyou cut through: “Not a single one.” The

palace people sighed and bowed down.

After the palace people left, there was a moment of silence on the table, and Lin Chengyou looked at the three people and wondered, “What do you do when you look at me like this?” Gu Xian coughed

, “This time in the Imperial Su River, although I was busy picking famous colts, I also heard people say that this birthday banquet is really full of talented and beautiful young ladies, even a few of our old ministers in the Nanzhao Kingdom, can’t help but make a few sour poems such as ‘Zhong Ling Yu Xiu, all in this dynasty’, Shizi, you really don’t have a picture?”

Lin Chengyou said, “If I really like it, do I need to hide it?” But you, who have repeatedly inquired about these things tonight, shouldn’t you have looked at anyone? Generously told me that I could ask my aunt to help you say a kiss. Gu Xian almost choked

out a sip of wine, and quickly waved his hand: “That’s it, I can’t say anything about you.” I advise you not to be too crazy, sooner or later you will have a favorite little lady, I would like to see what kind of little lady will make you obedient.

Lin Chengyou poured a glass of wine for Gu Xian: “You don’t have to wait and see, I can tell you now, obey the post?” This life is impossible. The

prince and the king of Chun’an County sighed secretly, Ah Da was deceived when he was a child, and he is still plagued by poison, tonight when he said this, in addition to laughing, there is also a self-deprecating meaning, to put it bluntly, the elders are so concerned about Ah Da’s relatives, more concerned about his condition, everyone secretly hopes that the poison can be alleviated, and Ah Da can one day meet the woman he likes.

Otherwise, with the nature of Ada, I would rather be lonely and never marry a woman I didn’t like to go home.

A drink until midnight, when the four people were drunk, Lin Chengyou sent away the prince and others, and returned to the room to prepare hot water for bathing. When I opened the fabric and looked, the wound was almost healed.

When he fell to the bed, he thought that the medicine that Teng Yuyi gave him was really good, and for the sake of this medicine, he did not waste his efforts to help her get the little red horse.

The two of them were completely torn apart, as long as she returned the string of Xuanyin bells, the two would have nothing to do with each other in the future.

He closed his eyes and opened them again not long after.

If it wasn’t for Teng Yuyi’s secret reminder that night, Du Tinglan would not have thought of the name “Xiangxiang”.

Teng Yuyi’s cleverness comes from her grandmother.

I heard that Teng Yuyi’s aunt died when she was five years old, who taught her to read and write?

Suddenly, it occurred to her that the horse was not easy to tame, Teng Yuyi had ever ridden a horse when she was in Yangzhou, she only knew that this horse was beautiful, but she had thought about how to tame it.

Oh, this is something to do with him, it’s not a big deal to fall a few times, with her wild nature, anyway, you can always think of a way.

He closed his eyes again and fell asleep before long.

I slept until midnight when I was suddenly awakened by a knock at the door.

“Shizi—”

was the voice of a slave.

“What?” Lin Chengyou was too sleepy to open his eyes.

“There is a haunted house in Jinchengfang, and I want to ask Shizi to come to the door to get rid of it.”

“Jinchengfang?” Lin Chengyou had issued an order before, as long as someone came to the door for help at night, no one at the bottom was allowed to stop it. “What house, why did you find me?”

“It was a nunnery, and the abbot had been driving herself away for several days, and as a result, the ghost had been working in the nunnery, and the nuns had to come to the door to ask Shizi for ideas.”

It seemed that it was just a small ghost, Lin Chengyou closed his eyes and said, “Jinchengfang is next door to Dongmingguan, why did you come to me from afar?” “I

don’t know.”

“Let them go find the Five Paths of the Eastern Ming Temple.”

“But—”

Lin Chengyou casually felt out a gold ingot and threw it out: “It’s dead.” Give this to the five ways, let them out of the horse, not enough to add more. The

gold ingot broke out of the window, and Kuan Nu did not dare to say anything more, answered a good word, and walked away with a light hand and light foot holding the gold ingot.

Lin Chengyou turned over, fell asleep again in the blink of an eye, and was woken up again not long after, he frowned straightly, it was difficult to sleep cleanly, how endless.

However, his consciousness soon told him that the noisy movement came from the bell in the front of his nightgown, and that the thing was noisy like a bell, and the sound was urgent and fierce.

His heart skipped a beat, and he didn’t want to jump out of bed, so he grabbed his coat and ran outside while tying the jade belt.

When I ran outside, I suddenly felt a chill on the soles of my feet, stood in the doorway and looked down, only to see that I was still barefoot, so I had to run back to the bed to put on my boots.

Running out and stopping at the steps outside the house, he looked up at the deep vault, drew out the silver chain, and jumped up the eaves.
