Chapter Seventy-Eight: A String of Buildings
A string of buildings, carved eaves reflect the sun, painting buildings flying clouds, Bi Xuan windows, bead curtains hang high, it is the most favorite restaurant for elegant people in Xiao'an City. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although the dignitaries were full of praise for the wine and food in the bunch, they were not very enthusiastic because there was no singing and dancing to accompany them. Unexpectedly, in this way, it has become the reputation of a string of buildings, and if the students and officials who come and go to Xiao'an do not enter this string of buildings, it seems to have a relationship with vulgar fans and drunken gold fans. And if you don't publicize it to the outside world, it's like throwing a lot of money but you don't even hear a sound, so you have to preach it loudly.
There are three floors in a string of buildings, all of which are Accords, with ten Accords on the first and second floors and only five Accords on the third floor. Although the food and drinks in the building are surprisingly expensive, business has been very good, but even if the first and second floors are fully occupied, the third floor will never be easily opened, because the people who enter and exit the third floor are often royal people.
Yuan Muhuai, the right-hand minister who leaned towards the government and the opposition, and Xia Hepheasant, the hot-looking left-hand minister, had never stepped up to the third floor in order to avoid being on an equal footing with the royal family, and how could the rest of the rich and powerful eunuchs and the sons and nephews of high-ranking families dare to make trespassing? It is because all the diners are well aware of the rules of the string of buildings, but none of them have raised any objections.
A string of buildings has been in Xiao'an for many years, and I heard that the reason why the restaurant was named this is because the owner of the restaurant is named Qian Yichuan, which is homophonic to "Qian Yichuan".
Qian Yichuan has small eyes, a round face, is not tall, slightly chubby, and always has a shrewd and kind smile on his face, which is similar to the appearance of an ordinary businessman. It's not the first time Lin Yiren has seen Qian Yichuan, but today, when he stepped into a string of buildings, he always felt that Qian Yichuan had an indescribable weirdness, but he was just like in the past, coming to the restaurant to eat casually, why did he make him so uncomfortable?
Lin Yiren secretly felt a little suspicious recently, so he asked Qi Jing to stay on the first floor for dinner first, and he walked towards the third floor.
The third floor of a string of buildings has always been quiet, and there are almost no full rooms, and today's five Accords are also empty. According to the previous habits, Lin Yiren walked into the Jiangxue Pavilion on the easternmost side and sat by the window.
Guy Li Lu brought the Biluochun that Lin Yiren often drinks, and said with a smile, "What do you want to eat today?"
Lin Yiren picked up the teacup and took a sip, "What special snacks have you launched recently?"
Li Lu said sharply, "The chef picked some peach blossoms at the beginning of spring, washed and dried them and kept them in honey, and took them out a few days ago to make a few peach blossom cakes, which are very sweet and delicious." It's just that the peach blossoms are left less, and the cooks are scarce, so they are all small and only started to do after the word, so it takes a long time, if the prince has nothing else to do, it is worth trying. ”
"Peach blossoms?" Lin Yiren put down the teacup, and the corner of his eyes swept over the market downstairs, his gaze flickered.
In the long street market, a slender and thin figure is walking alone in the bustling crowd, like a shadow that will always be ignored.
Gu Xiao Fan?
Lin Yiren thought for a moment, his eyes swept, and sure enough, he immediately saw Yanxu and Lu Qianqian's figures five or six meters in front of Gu Xiaofan's body.
"Lord Wang......" Li Lu didn't know what Lin Yiren meant, so he stood aside carefully.
Lin Yiren retracted his gaze, and a smile curled slightly at the corner of his lips, "Let's have a peach blossom cake." ”
"Yes. Li Lunuonuo stepped back and carefully closed the door of the Xue Pavilion.
After Li Lu went out, Lin Yiren got up and stood in front of the window, quietly staring at Yanxu's cold and lonely figure as before.
Zhong Lingyu is beautiful, arrogant and cold, ice soul and snow, elegant and elegant, this is Ji Xu, the prince of the Glaive Kingdom. Why did he suddenly appear in Xiao'an? Gu Xiaofan was so close to him, could it be that he also had a great connection with the Glaive Kingdom?
Lin Yiren turned his head sideways and looked at Gu Xiaofan, who was following behind Yanxu and Lu Qianqian...... Half-new, half-old white dress, some messy hair, looking all the way around, my eyes have long been attracted by the dazzling shops on both sides of the market, as if I want to go in and see what is going on.
It's no wonder that the colorful and magnificent Xiao'an is by no means comparable to Xiangxueli and Lingbo Town, and if Gu Xiaofan has lived on Tiandu Peak for many years, it is naturally even rarer for all kinds of things in the shop.
Lin Yiren looked at Gu Xiaofan and pursed his lips slightly...... If Gu Xiaofan is really the work of the Glaive Kingdom, I am afraid that there will be more chaos than the news that has been discovered, and Yan Xu is well versed in Gu Xiaofan's temperament, and it is impossible to put her in danger. Therefore, it is very likely that Gu Xiaofan does not know the true identity of Yanxu, or even if Gu Xiaofan knows the identity of Yanxu as the prince of Yanxu Glaive and obeys him, it also comes from the attachment when he was a child, not his loyalty to the Glaive Kingdom.
Since this is the case, Gu Xiaofan is not the person that the Lin Yi people need to deal with, which is completely different from the inevitable hostile relationship between the Lin Yi people and Yanxu, and the Lin Yi people can't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. It's just that all this is only speculation at the moment, and Lin Yiren needs more conclusive evidence to prove that Gu Xiaofan has nothing to do with the Glaive Kingdom, and it is a matter of the overall situation, and he must not make a mistake by half a step.
In the market, Yan Xu and Lu Qianqian suddenly stopped, and after Gu Xiaofan followed, they whispered something to her. Lin Yiren saw Gu Xiaofan nodding obediently, and stood under the banner of the tea house opposite the bunch of buildings, while Yu Xu and Lu Qianqian turned around and walked towards the bunch of buildings.
Obviously, Yan Xu and Lu Qianqian planned to eat in a bunch of buildings, but because Gu Xiaofan only ate vegetables and fruits, the two did not let Gu Xiaofan enter together. Lin Yiren looked at Gu Xiaofan who was wiping sweat with his sleeve in the sun, and frowned slightly.
The sun was blazing, Gu Xiaofan licked his chapped lips, searched around for the fruit stand, and was immediately a little disappointed. The streets of Shinoan are wide and gorgeous, and there are no farmers who carry the burden like Xiangxueri and Lingbo Town.
Gu Xiaofan looked at the tea house behind him, the bamboo fence house, the carved beams and embroidered columns, obviously a place for rich and noble people to enter and exit. She touched the purse in her arms, hesitated, and finally did not take out the purse, there were only twelve taels of silver in it, if she entered this tea house, she was afraid that half of the silver taels would be gone.
Gu Xiaofan was bored, looked up at the string of buildings in front of her, and sighed regretfully, it was the first time she had seen such a beautiful restaurant, but it was a pity that Ah Xu asked her to wait outside, otherwise it would be good even if she went in to have a look.
In the Jiangxue Pavilion, Lin Yiren saw Gu Xiaofan suddenly raise his head, took a step back, and hid his figure behind the window lattice.
"Lord Wang. Qi Jing pushed the door in, his expression was slightly strange.
Lin Yiren turned around and said lightly, "See the words?"
Qi Jing said softly, "Lu Qianqian is on the second floor, and Qian Yichuan is leading Yan Gongzi to the third floor. ”
Lin Yiren was slightly stunned, and he figured out the reason why Qian Yichuan was uncomfortable today. Qian Yichuan was nervous, because he knew that Yan Xu would come, and that Xu was a person with a high enough status for Qian Yichuan...... Then, this means that he knows the true identity of Yanxu.
Glaive Prince Ji Xu...... If Qian Yichuan attaches so much importance to this identity, there seems to be only one explanation.
Lin Yiren thought for a moment and said to Qi Jing, "Send someone to check on Qian Yichuan, a string of buildings must be connected with the Glaive Kingdom." ”
"Yes. ”
As soon as Qi Jing's voice fell, Qian Yichuan's respectful voice came from the corridor, "Childe's ancestors had the grace to save my family's life, and now it is an honor to have the opportunity to feast Childe." ”
"The money shopkeeper is polite. It was a cold voice.
Lin Yiren listened to Qian Yichuan's words into the Hanchu Pavilion in the west, and the corners of his lips flashed with a hint of coldness.
Hanchu Pavilion and Jiangxue Pavilion are the two Accords farthest away from each other on the third floor, Qian Yichuan's previous words were clearly said to him, and when he arrived in Hanchu Pavilion, I am afraid that it will be a different situation.
Lin Yiren sat down with his robe, picked up the teacup, and took a shallow sip, "Qi Jing, Gu Xiaofan is downstairs, you go and bring her up." ”
"Brought here?" Qi Jing wondered, "Didn't the Gu girl know the identity of the prince?"
Lin Yidao, "In the morning in the field, I guess you also heard Zhuo Yun mention Yanxu's other identity, if Qian Yichuan is really Yanyue Guo's meticulous work in Xiao'an, Yanxu may have known my identity long ago." ”
Qi Jing was stunned and said, "So, when he was in Qiuyi Villa, Gongzi Yan recognized the prince and the crown prince?"
Lin Yiren bowed slightly, "Yan Xu is silent in everything, the city is very deep, but Gu Xiaofan may not know these things, you just say that Shen Dongli wants her to return the silver, and she will definitely come up with you." ”
"Yes. Qi Jing bowed and retreated.
