Chapter 47: The Ghost Lingers

The private room on the second floor has an excellent view, and as soon as the south window is opened, you can see the entire scene of Zhengyang Street.

Because today is a temple fair, although it is not yet the official start of the temple fair, there are more people on the street than usual. He Linwan didn't pay attention when he just came in, but now he sat down by the window to see the hanging banner outside the teahouse, it turned out that this teahouse was called "Cyclamen", He Linwan couldn't help but smile after seeing it.

Zhao Yingchuan didn't let Xiao Er come in to serve, he was pouring tea for He Linwan, and when he saw the smile on He Linwan's face, he followed her line of sight and glanced at the banner that was waving in the wind: "Qingqing took the name at random when he chose it." ”

He Lin paused for a moment before he realized that Zhao Yingchuan was talking to him, and couldn't help laughing: "Did you take it at random? I thought you missed your hometown." ”

Zhao Yingchuan was stunned, and He Mian was curious: "How does the name of this teahouse have anything to do with their hometown?"

He Linwan was a little surprised: "'Cyclamen' is a kind of flower, it is abundant in Qingzhou, near your hometown of Jinan Prefecture, and I heard that it is quite popular with the locals. Zhao Gongzi doesn't know?"

He Mian sneered: "Where did you hear about it? It's normal that Brother Zhao doesn't know these flowers and plants, right?"

Zhao Yingchuan was silent for a moment before he said lightly: "Jinan is not my hometown. ”

"Oh?" He Mian was a little surprised, and was about to ask, but the middle-aged shopkeeper from before suddenly came in.

The shopkeeper said respectfully. "Young master, just now Miss asked someone to come over and say that the third master of Jinan Mansion is here, so she can't come over today. Let you entertain a few distinguished guests. ”

Zhao Yingchuan heard the hand holding the teapot for a moment, and looked up at the shopkeeper: "Third master?"

The shopkeeper said, "Yes, young master, that's what Miss said." The man who came to pass the word is still below, do you want to meet the young master?"

Zhao Yingchuan nodded, said goodbye to He Mian and He Linwan and got up and left the table.

The shopkeeper personally served them refreshments.

He Mian was puzzled: "Didn't the young master and young lady of your family come to the capital to make a living because they didn't get along with the people of their own family?

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "The third master is the cousin of my young master and young lady, and he took care of us a lot when he was in Jinan, and he is not a wicked person, Young Master He, don't misunderstand." ”

He Mian was relieved, and asked the shopkeeper again: "You know a lot, you are an old man who came from Jinan with their brothers and sisters, right?"

The middle-aged shopkeeper smiled very kindly: "Young Master He guessed well. The younger one has been a slave of the Zhao family since his grandfather's generation. ”

He Mian was obviously bored waiting for the others. simply pulled the shopkeeper and chatted: "What does your young master mean when he says that Jinan is not his hometown?"

The middle-aged shopkeeper still smiled: "Our lineage only moved to Jinan several generations ago, and we settled in the Guanzhong area a long time ago. ”

He Mian nodded suddenly: "I see." ”

The middle-aged shopkeeper bowed and saluted: "Young Master He, Miss He, please use it slowly, and the small one will retreat first." ”

He Linwan glanced thoughtfully at the back of the middle-aged shopkeeper.

The storyteller in the lobby downstairs was talking about the King of Jin when he was surrounded by enemy troops. The current emperor, who is still the king of Qi, went to the rescue with his elite soldiers and strong generals. Eighteen formations laid by the enemy were broken into the company. Defeated the enemy to the ground, because it was the wonderful place, and the lobby continued to cheer.

But after saying this paragraph, the atmosphere below changed again. It turned out that the king of Qi rushed to the place where the king of Jin was trapped with soldiers and horses, but found that the army of the king of Jin had already been killed by the enemy, and the enemy army was still chasing the king of Jin and his only few remaining guards for more than ten miles. He swallowed.

There were sighs one after another downstairs, some said that the king of Qi is the current saint who is brave, and there is a pity that the king of Jin could hold on for a while and wait for the king of Qi to come to the rescue.

Even He Mian seemed to be attracted by the sound of storytelling downstairs, and listened to it for a long time with his chin propped up, seeing that there were no outsiders around, He Mian frowned and whispered to He Linwan: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin has experienced a hundred battles, and he has terrified the enemy, and he has been named a generation of "God of War", why is it that the King of Jin is so ...... by this storytelling today."

The word "useless" was swallowed hard by He Mian under He Linwan's indifferent gaze.

As soon as He Mian's words fell, there was a loud noise in the lobby downstairs, followed by the exclamations of the guests one after another.

An angry and irritable voice sounded downstairs: "Reversing black and white, fabricating historical facts, and telling old stories, you don't want to die, right? I will fulfill you today!"

He Linwan almost squirted out the tea in her mouth when she heard this voice, but fortunately, she was determined, so she just put down the hot tea without changing her face and covered her forehead.

He Mian was stunned for a moment, and then immediately jumped up with excitement on his face: "I'll just say how can today's rare good day be so boring, look! The person who sent the fun has come to the door, right? I'll go down to watch the excitement first, Ah Wan, you wait for me here, I'll call you again if there is something good." ”

After saying that, He Mian didn't wait for He Linwan to speak, and ran away.

He Linwan listened to the sound of all kinds of chickens flying and dogs jumping from downstairs, as well as the voice of the storyteller who kept begging for mercy, and then there was He Mian's coaxing, He Linwan lamented in his heart: Sure enough, as long as there is a place where Li Heng is, don't think about being clean.

This is the teahouse of the Zhao family brothers and sisters, He Linwan was having a headache when the curtain of the private room was lifted, and a person who surprised her walked in.

He Linwan looked at the uninvited person who came and sat down at the table for a long time before he said lightly: "Shizi, do you know how the four words "uninvited guest" are written?"

Hearing this, Li Yu raised his eyes and glanced at He Linwan: "Are you waiting for the Yuan family brothers and sisters?"

He Linwan raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Yu: "So what?"

Li Yu listened to the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping outside, and said lazily without looking back: "It's too noisy." As soon as he finished speaking, one of the guards came out of nowhere, and without saying a word, closed the door to their box.

He Linwan: "......"

The voice outside was really much quieter, Li Yu was satisfied, and then continued to say to He Linwan: "The brothers and sisters of the Yuan family are not here today. ”

He Linwan frowned: "Why? Why did you come to report the news?"

Li Yu, who was regarded as the person who came to report the news, didn't explain, but just stretched out his fingers and flicked the empty teacup in front of him, and Chunxiao, who was standing on the side, automatically came over tremblingly and filled the tea for Li Yu.

"Yuan gradually was injured by the snow leopard, and suddenly had a high fever before going out today, and the doctor said that he was poisoned after reading it, and it may be that the snow leopard passed the toxin to Yuan gradually when he scratched him again......"

When He Linwan heard this, he subconsciously interrupted: "This is impossible! That's not ......" Speaking of this, He Linwan paused, raised his head and squinted at Li Yu slightly.

Li Yu stared at He Linwan and suddenly smiled: "Isn't that what it is?"

He Linwan said coldly: "What does the prince want me to say?"

You actually want to cheat her?

"Say whatever you know. Li Yu looked at He Linwan for a long time, "Miss He, do you know what kind of poison is in the snow leopard?"

He Linwan was shocked, when she was in the Colosseum, Mu Zhizhen asked her if she knew what kind of poison was in the snow leopard, and when she replied that she didn't know, her face might have been slightly different, was she actually seen by Li Yu?

He Linwan's heart was turbulent, but his face was not obvious at all, but he blinked innocently: "I really don't understand what the prince is talking about." What kind of poison is in the snow leopard, you should ask the person who poisoned it, why did you come to me and ask me?"

Li Yu looked at He Linwan carefully, wanting to see something from her face, but unfortunately He Linwan looked really innocent.

Li Yu didn't know why she always remembered He Linwan's every move that day after she went back, including the complicated look on her face when she was asked what kind of poison was in the snow leopard.

Li Yu recalled He Linwan's expression at that time many times, and as a result, it was He Linwan, a little girl, who appeared in the dream that night, and Li Yu was depressed after waking up, so he concluded that He Linwan must have a problem!

"Later, I found someone to examine the body of the snow leopard, but no one could find out that the snow leopard contained toxins in its body, and An Beiyue and the Eighth Prince naturally refused to admit that they had done anything beforehand. Li Yu explained patiently.

He Linwan nodded and smiled: "I see, that's really a pity." It's a pity that I can't help Shizi with anything. ”

As soon as the snow leopard swallowed the toxin, it naturally dissipated, so after the descendants of the royal family of the previous dynasty were rescued, the secret medicine did not leak out at all, because the "living corpse" did not leave traces on the body of the deceased.

The rescue of the royal family of the previous dynasty was rumored to be a miracle, so Emperor Taizu did not dare to immediately send troops to kill them all, for fear of really angering the gods.

But He Linwan wouldn't say these things even if they were rotten in her stomach, how could she tell Li Yu?

Li Yu smiled at He Linwan, his face was like jade, handsome and unparalleled.

"Miss He, I didn't come to you to ask about the snow leopard poisoning just for my own personal vendetta. This poison is now so powerful on a snow leopard, if that person with ulterior motives uses it on people, and more people...... Have you ever wondered what the consequences this will have for the entire Great Zhou Dynasty?"

He Linwan felt that Li Yu was really good-looking when she smiled, but unfortunately his words couldn't move her, she was the daughter of a criminal minister who was exterminated, what did the life and death of the Great Zhou Dynasty have to do with her?

I didn't want Li Yu to be lazy and continued: "Doesn't Miss He want the plum garden?".
