Chapter 138: Searching the Store
"Lu Yunxi has secretly possessed contraband***, and he will be brought to the yamen for interrogation. The little official next to him replied.
As soon as the little official's voice fell, Lu Yunxi suddenly thought of that day Boss Liu had been alone in his house for a full hour.
Thinking of this, Lu Yunxi's eyes suddenly tightened, stared at Si Tingyan, and said in a deep voice, "Boss Liu, that Boss Liu has a problem!"
The officials pushed Lu Yunxi, "Miss Lu, don't make it difficult for us. ”
When Lu Yunxi heard this, he glanced at Si Tingyan indifferently.
Seeing this, Si Tingyan nodded hurriedly.
Lu Yunxi followed the servant forward.
Seeing Lu Yunxi and the servants leaving, Si Tingyan immediately turned around and went to the second floor.
It is strange to say that these officials took Lu Yunxi to the prison of the Criminal Department, and only locked her in the prison, but no one came to interrogate her.
At first, Lu Yunxi didn't quite understand the reason, but later, she figured it out.
No matter how I say it, he is also the righteous grandson recognized by the Queen Mother herself.
I am afraid that no official in this criminal department will dare to interrogate him.
Lu Yunxi sat in the corner, thinking about *** things.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of iron locks clashing at the end of the long corridor of the prison.
After a while, he saw the jailer leading Ouyang Zhi in from outside.
He glanced at Lu Yunxi twice, and then ordered the jailer to go out first.
Ouyang Zhi sat opposite Lu Yunxi, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he glanced Lu Yunxi up and down.
Lu Yunxi didn't answer, don't look over, don't look at Ouyang Zhi.
"Miss Lu, this private possession is not a small crime. ”
In the end, it was Ouyang Zhi who couldn't help but take the lead in speaking.
When Lu Yunxi heard this, he smiled faintly, lowered his head slightly, and didn't look at him, and said in a deep voice, "I should have thought a long time ago that Boss Liu is also a Jiangnan person, and if you want to transport a large number of goods, you naturally have to take the Jiangnan waterway." How could it not have anything to do with you?"
Ouyang Zhi raised his head and smiled, revealing a satisfied look, "I said a long time ago, how can the woman I like be bad? You really didn't disappoint me!"
"Why?"
Lu Yunxi suddenly raised his head, stared at Ouyang Zhi's eyes with a pair of cold eyes, and asked in a deep voice.
Ouyang Zhi smiled faintly, leaned forward slightly, folded his hands on his knees, and stared at Lu Yunxi, "It's all you who toast and don't eat and drink." If you obey me in Xiangyuan Building that day, where are these things?"
Lu Yunxi frowned, turned her head slightly, and turned sideways to look at Ouyang Zhi, "Your Royal Highness, what kind of woman do you want? Why do you have to do such a thing for me?"
"If you are still the original Lu Yunxi, it's fine. ”
Ouyang Zhi said as he stood up, turned his back to Lu Yunxi, paced back and forth, then turned his head, stared into her eyes, and continued, "But you are now the righteous grandson of the Queen Mother, and you have also been canonized as the county lord." Then it's even more impossible for me to just let you go. ”
When Lu Yunxi heard this, her cold eyes were a little more sarcastic, staring at Ouyang Zhi but not speaking, as if she was watching a big joke.
Ouyang Zhi snorted coldly, walked in front of Lu Yunxi in a few steps, lowered his head, raised his right hand, and grabbed Lu Yunxi's chin, "Lu Yunxi, if you are willing to agree to sleep with me for one night, I will think of saving you out." How?"
Lu Yunxi stared at Ouyang Zhi with cold eyes, "Since you know that the Queen Mother loves me, you dare to do such a thing to me?"
"No matter how much the Queen Mother loves you, she will not indulge your private collection***. If you refuse to sleep with me for one night, I will hand over a complaint to the Queen Mother tomorrow, and you will wait for your grace to be lost! If you are willing to sleep with me for one night, I will naturally have a way to suppress this matter. In the future, you can just wait in the house for me to come and marry you. Lu Yunxi, you are a smart person, you should know what kind of choice is most beneficial to you. ”
After Ouyang Zhi finished speaking, he let go of Lu Yunxi's chin, took two steps back, and a pair of eyes narrowed slightly, still staring at Lu Yunxi condescendingly.
The capital with a dark moon and high wind is so cold that it is seeping, and the suburbs of Beijing are even more northerly winds.
Si Tingyan rode a black steed and galloped wildly in the darkness.
Boss Liu is a Jiangnan person, if you want to find him, you have to go to Jiangnan.
The waterway was controlled by the Xu family and the king of Yanqing, and he would be discovered as long as he left the capital.
In desperation, although the land route was slower, Si Tingyan could only go out of the city overnight.
Along the way, he ran and killed five horses, did not sleep, and arrived in Yicheng, Jiangnan in less than three days.
The scenery of Yicheng is beautiful, and more than half of the wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan have come from Yicheng in recent years.
Si Tingyan arrived in Yicheng, and he didn't dare to delay, so he inquired around.
Who knows, there are only five Boss Liu who is in the rouge gouache business in Yicheng.
After several twists and turns, Si Tingyan locked up a rouge shop next to the east gate of Yicheng.
But after questioning, I found out that Boss Liu didn't return to Yicheng at all!
Boss Liu never returned to Yicheng, and even the foundation and eyeshadow he customized from Dyeing Xi Pavilion did not appear in Yicheng.
Where the hell did he go?
Si Tingyan was full of anxiety.
If you can't find Boss Liu, you can't find anyone who can prove Lu Yunxi's innocence.
He walked around the streets of Yicheng for a long time, and then returned to the inn dejectedly.
As soon as he entered the inn, he saw a man with a yellow face and thin muscles, his hands in front of him, his body bowing forward, yawning one by one.
He glanced around with a pair of eyes, and immediately followed when he saw another man not far away.
The two got together, and the man took out a few ingots of silver, stuffed them into another person in a panic, and exchanged them for a bag of brown paper bags, and then carried them in his arms and walked forward quickly.
Si Tingyan saw this scene clearly, and his heart sank.
The innkeeper greeted him, looked at Si Tingyan's gaze, stepped forward, and showed an embarrassed smile, "Guest officer, you are from out of town, right?" These days, Yicheng suddenly has a lot more ***. These people are all smokers. ”
Hearing this, Si Tingyan's heart tightened, and he suddenly turned his head away and glanced at the shopkeeper.
When the shopkeeper saw his gaze, he only thought that he was interested in these things, so he continued, "Where have you seen these things in Yicheng before? It was only after the waterway was opened that these things were available in Yicheng. It's really harmful!"
Si Tingyan's two hands at his side were clenched tightly, and his mind was spinning rapidly.
He turned his head sideways, glanced at the shopkeeper, and frowned, "Shopkeeper, please give this thing to the shopkeeper of the Xinglin Pavilion in Yicheng, and let him come to see me." ”
