Chapter 16: Lovesickness

Lu Xiunian's mouth was so tight that the boss lady was powerless, and finally ended the interrogation with the boss lady falling asleep grogily.

Lu Xiunian looked at the proprietress lying on the table and breathed a sigh of relief.

wiped a handful of sweat, but it can be regarded as a stop.

Lu Xiunian got up, poured himself a cup of tea, closed the window next to him, took a coat hanging next to him and draped it on the proprietress 's body, scanned around and found nothing suspicious, and then left the proprietress room.

Early the next morning, the cook returned to the tavern, because the miscellaneous servants reported to the official in time, so the people from the official office came quickly.

The person who came was the pastor of Chang'an Mansion, and he was also one of the departments in charge of the case, Lu Xiunian explained the incident of last night in 1510, and of course omitted the matter of his fight with the man in black.

The pastor of Chang'an Mansion looked at this young man suspiciously, although there were not many people who knew about the things in this tavern, he was one of them.

And from the situation above the court, the Chang'an Mansion Mu is a person who belongs to Yang Xiang, and he is following King Ning's faction, and the Admiral of the Nine Gates is also closer to King Yi, so the person who came is him instead of the Admiral of the Nine Gates.

Chang'an Mansion's pastoral surname is Liang, his name is Ying, and he is also like his name, a heroic young man.

Yang Xiang loves talent, not only because he himself is from a poor family, but also because Liang Ying himself is a rare talent.

The strife in the court, especially with each change, was even more brutal.

Just like today's imperial court, although King Yi and King Ning are harmonious on the surface, they are already inseparable in private, it can be said that in addition to the emperor who doesn't know, these people below already know what they should know.

King Yi has always been a cold-faced prince in the court, and the emperor is very fond of this King Ning, so King Yi, who is not good at forming gangs, is not much guarded against by the emperor, and it is precisely because of this that King Yi Lin Xuanxuan can seek Shen Luoqiu.

Shen Luoqiu, that is the daughter of General Jizhou, that is to say, his father holds the power of the army, even if the emperor is not afraid of it, but there are some things that cannot be ignored.

But King Ning opened his mouth to ask for the daughter of the general of Jizhou for King Yi, although he won a good reputation, but this does not mean that this is what King Ning wants to do.

What is the inside story of this, but most people don't know.

Lu Xiunian looked at the young Chang'an Mansion Mu, who was also looking at him.

He naturally knew about the two people that Yang Xiang arranged next to the proprietress, but if he wanted to say that the young man was really as innocent as he said, Liang Ying didn't believe it.

He is an official, but he has also practiced martial arts, and this young man has such a strength in his body, which always makes him feel that something is wrong, but he can't say it.

However, after a while, the catcher who came in quickly answered some doubts for him.

Watching the catcher say a few words in the ear of the Chang'an Mansion, Lu Xiunian had a hunch that his relationship with Princess Yi seemed to be unable to hide, although he did not deliberately hide the idea, but it was inevitable that Liang Ying would not think much about it.

After all, he has a close relationship with the concubine of King Yi, who knows who this Chang'an Mansion Pastor is?

Lu Xiunian is not in the imperial court, but he still understands some things.

The only thing he was afraid of was implicating the side princess, and there was nothing else.

He is worthy of the proprietress and General Jizhou, but he is the only one who is sorry.

"Your name is Lu Xiunian?" asked the Chang'an Mansion Mu, as if confirming something.

Lu Xiunian nodded without hesitation, and answered his question.

Liang Ying got an answer, but it was a little surprised, this teenager didn't realize the danger, or did he realize it but was not afraid at all?

Is it a coincidence that a person from King Yi actually appeared next to Yang Xiang's person?

But if it was really King Yi's person, how could Yang Xiang not know? Since he knew it, why didn't he do anything, did he let this young man be by his side, was there another purpose?

Soon the cook said a few words in Liang Ying's ear, and Liang Ying suddenly knew that Lu Xiunian knew that his suspicion had been lifted.

After that, the people of Chang'an Mansion inspected in the tavern, but it was announced in the name of another case, if the people of Chang'an City were panicked, this was at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and it was inevitable that they would lose face.

Therefore, there is a lot of pressure on the Chang'an Governor, the pressure on the major censorship departments, and the pressure on the people of Chang'an, but more of it is fear.

The only thing that is not under pressure is Lu Xiunian, who still eats and drinks wine as usual every day, as well as practicing martial arts and facing the interrogation of the proprietress.

But in the end, it will end in nothingness, of course, Lu Xiunian will never tell the truth.

On this day, a strange guest came to the tavern, even if the people of the government deliberately concealed it, but Chang'an City was much depressed during the day, and the business of the tavern was also affected, but there were still guests who left after drinking.

Lu Xiunian looked at the guest at the door, frowned slightly, then untied it and greeted him, "Guest officer, please, what kind of wine do you want?"

The woman's eyebrows were cold, and there was a scar on the right side of her face, which looked even more murderous.

Looking at Lu Xiunian, the woman said coldly, "You're not afraid of me?"

Lu Xiunian smiled, "Why be afraid?"

The woman frowned, then unfolded it and handed it to Lu Xiunian, "Two or two lovesickness." ”

Lu Xiunian took it, walked to the side and made two taels of wine, then walked over again and handed the wine jug to the woman, "Your wine, two taels of lovesickness." ”

Lu Xiunian didn't know why the proprietress was so literary and artistic, but according to the sentimental nature of the proprietress, the name was also reasonable.

The woman took the wine jug, and before Lu Xiunian could react, he saw her raise her head, and the wine in the jug fell from a high place and fell into the woman's throat.

Lu Xiunian was stunned, after working here for so long, it was the first time he had seen such a casual person, and it was a woman.

"Do you still want it, guest officer?" asked Lu Xiunian.

The woman shook her head, already turning around and walking out of the tavern.

Strange, it's really weird, it's strange that it's murderous, it's strange that you pick up the wine jug and drink it all, it's strange that you want two or two lovesickness, it's strange that you come without a trace, and you go without a trace.

"You will meet a lot of special people in your life, but not everyone will cross paths with you, you have to admit that you are ordinary, of course, everyone is a unique individual. ”

The proprietress didn't know when she appeared behind her, Lu Xiunian looked at the proprietress and didn't come to her senses, it was really a red dress, such a gorgeous color, it was the first time he had seen the proprietress wear it.

Lu Xiunian's unexpected gaze fell on the eyes of the proprietress, but the latter smiled, and suddenly said, "Have you collected the money?"

Lu Xiunian was slightly stunned, he seemed to have really forgotten.

And the gaze of the proprietress who watched the whole process also confirmed this.

"Boss, that ......"

Lu Xiunian was thinking about what to say, but the proprietress showed a very gentle expression, "It's okay, it's deducted from your salary." ”

Lu Xiunian: "......"

"Can I ask how much I am paid?"

"Two money. ”

"What about the two lovesickness?"

"Two money. ”

Lu Xiunian: "......"

The proprietress who deducted the completion money was obviously in a much better mood, and even walked with a little ease, but poor Lu Xiunian's first month's salary was gone.

Just as Lu Xiunian sighed, a second strange guest came in from outside the door, dressed in a black cloak, very similar to the clothes worn by the person who attacked the proprietress that night.

"Shopkeeper, come to two or two lovesickness. ”

Lu Xiunian was stunned, and he was lovesick again, took the wine pot Lu Xiunian went to drink, this time he didn't forget to ask for wine money, and the man in black didn't leave in time, but chose to order two side dishes in the store.

When Lu Xiunian went to tell the cook in the back, the latter was obviously a little surprised, "Eat here?

Lu Xiunian said, "Let's not talk about the murder case first, I don't think you want him to eat here." ”

The cook's mind was seen through, and he smiled and waved his hand, "Where there is, I'll stir-fry the vegetables." ”

Lu Xiunian looked at the busy back of the cook, and didn't say anything, but just returned to the front, the man in black disappeared.

What's going on?

The first thought was the hostess's room, Lu Xiunian hurriedly ran outside the boss's room and pushed open the door, but he never thought to see a scene that he shouldn't see.

It turns out that the combat power of women at certain times is definitely incomparable to that of martial arts masters, and this is not almost Lu Xiunian, who was knocked out of the room, covered his head and apologized again and again before leaving the room.

This could not avoid the marks of scratches on his arms, and when he turned around, the man in black had returned to the position he had just placed downstairs.

Lu Xiunian really didn't know what was famous in it, but he felt that this person was a little strange.

Walking downstairs, Lu Xiunian asked, "Where did the guest officer go just now?" ”

"Get out and breathe, you're a little stuffy here. The man in black said.

Lu Xiunian smiled, "Guest officer, are you joking, the window is wide open......

Lu Xiunian's words came to an abrupt end, because the man's gaze was threatening and murderous.

Of course, this is the result of looking at it from the perspective of a person who has practiced martial arts.

"You're busy, you're busy, I'll rush your dishes, wait a minute. ”

Saying that, Lu Xiunian trotted all the way to the back kitchen, the cook's dishes were stir-frying, and there was already a fragrance, but Lu Xiunian's embarrassed appearance did not escape the chef's eyes.

"Why are you scared like this?" asked the cook.

Lu Xiunian told the cook what happened just now, and the latter thought about it, "It's really a bit strange." ”

"It's mushy!" Lu Xiunian hurriedly said, and the cook noticed that the dishes in the pot were almost mushy, but fortunately, Lu Xiunian reminded him and put the dishes out in time.

"Let's see what's going on first. The cook said.

Lu Xiunian returned to the front with the dishes, but this time he was a little more careful, and his intuition told him that this person was a little dangerous, and in terms of martial arts, this person's martial arts were not low, and he was a master of the first grade.

As for which rank, Lu Xiunian couldn't see it.

"Young people should not be too curious, and it is not good to know some things too clearly. The man in black said, giving Lu Xiunian a wake-up call, and seemed to have discovered his snooping.

Lu Xiunian was slightly stunned, but he didn't have much reaction, just looked at the black-clothed man in front of him, "The villain has some questions, why does the guest officer have a black cloak in the blue sky and white day? ”

The man in black didn't pause, and he didn't go to see Lu Xiunian, but just made a cold voice, "I have a disease that can't see the light, what's the matter, Xiao Er knows how to heal?"

Lu Xiunian smiled and said, "You can give it a try." ”

The body of the man in black stiffened slightly, as if he didn't expect such a shopkeeper to dare to say such a thing, and he had to think about it.

And at this moment, Lu Xiunian's words also came out, "Invite the guest officer to show his wrist and let the villain give it a try." ”

The man in black thought about it, and really stretched out his hand, Lu Xiunian smiled, this person seemed to be very confident, otherwise, how could he stretch out his hand with confidence, it was nothing more than that he felt that he couldn't do anything to her.

Lu Xiunian probed the pulse of the man in black, but also found a clue, although there was no problem with the skin on his hands, but some dark spots could still be faintly seen on the wrist, Lu Xiunian frowned, his eyes flashed slightly, he didn't say much, but he focused more on the pulse of the man in black.

This pulse seems to be a little wrong.

The man in black waited for a long time and didn't wait for Lu Xiunian to speak, so he asked first, "How is it?"

A little impatient, but also a little bored, it seems that this person is very distressed about his skin disease.

Lu Xiunian curled the corners of his lips, "The guest officer's illness is not an incurable disease, only a pair of medicines are needed." ”

The man in black was puzzled, "What medicine?"

Lu Xiunian smiled, "Sunshine." ”

The man in black was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect Lu Xiunian to be so perfunctory, and immediately said coldly, "What kind of doctor will you be?"

Lu Xiunian was not annoyed, but said calmly, "The villain is not talented, but he has a unique treatment method for such a disease, I don't know if the guest officer wants to try it." ”

The man in black snorted coldly, "Speak wildly!"

Lu Xiunian didn't speak, but the man had already stretched out his hand in the direction of the man in black first, and the latter's reaction was also very fast, and he wanted to retreat, but the stool under him immediately shattered in half.

Lu Xiunian looked at the man in black, and took the first step to the direction of the door to block the door, blocking the way of the man in black.

"Guest officer, it's easy to get in this place, but it's hard to get out. ”

Lu Xiunian said it easily, but the man in black was already angry, and hooked Lu Xiunian's neck, the latter dodged in time, not only that, but also attacked the lower plate of the man in black, the man in black dodged, but he felt that the cloak on his body was torn off, and it was too late to fight, and the person was already exposed to the sun.

It was a withered face, although Lu Xiunian had been mentally prepared, he was still startled,

"It's already this face, can't you be scared if you don't stay at home? ”

The man in black gritted his teeth and looked at Lu Xiunian's eyes as if they were about to burst into flames.

"Look for death!

While speaking, the two of them tore into a fight again, and the cooks and handymen who had alarmed the back kitchen also looked at it together.
