Chapter 175: Suspicion
When Han Xiaoyue learned that the Tang Kingdom had descended to the Song Dynasty, she reminded the Li brothers and sisters not to be greedy for fiefdoms, and after gaining a false name, they retired to Mingzhe to protect themselves. The Li brothers and sisters www.biquge.info have long been ready to go north. When Han Xiaoyue introduced Situ Sheng to the Li brothers and sisters, she found out that Li Zhongxuan had been familiar with him for a long time. So, Ding Yuechan told Yu Zhengmei about being kidnapped.
"On our way home that day, the three of us encountered a group of masked men in black who were trying to do wrong. The three of us are outnumbered, and the third sister was also robbed by that gang, and her life and death are currently unknown...... Han Gongzi said that the three highnesses could help find clues, so they asked for help. Li Zhongyu listened, looked at Li Zhongxuan and said, "Brother Huang, this is a matter on your rivers and lakes, you can make a decision!" Li Zhongyi stood aside and looked at him in the same way.
After hearing this, Li Zhongxuan didn't have any thoughts at all, after all, Ding Yuechan's clues were limited, so he then asked: "Girl, where are you going? Where is the place of the incident?" Ding Yuechan said: "We wanted to go to Nanxun, but we were ambushed less than five days away from Tanzhou. I wanted to go back to Nanxun to call my sisters to help, but I was afraid that it would take too long to make a mistake, so I returned to Tanzhou. β
Li Zhongxuan nodded and said, "What are the characteristics of those black-clothed people?" Ding Yuechan couldn't think of it for a while, but Situ Sheng rushed to say: "Back to Your Highness, those black-clothed people exude a strange fragrance, and listening to the accent seems to be from Wu Yue's area. And the kung fu is not from the Central Plains, which is very weird. β
When Li Zhongxuan heard the word "Wu Yue", he had some eyebrows in his mind. Few people in the land of Wu Yue care, and the only "Wu Yue people" on the rivers and lakes who have the strength to do this are only the disciples in the Lechuan Pavilion. It's just that Lethe Pavilion has always been low-key, and Li Zhongxuan is just guessing out of thin air. If you want to finally determine whether it was Lethe Pavilion's doing, you need to interrogate it carefully.
Li Zhongxuan continued to ask: "Can you roughly describe the fragrance on your body?" Situ Sheng continued: "That fragrance is refreshing, and it should be a floral fragrance that can be used as a spice." Ding Yuechan added: "In addition, all of them have this aroma on their bodies. It's obviously a man, but his whole body is full of flowers, which is strange. β
Li Zhongxuan thought for a moment, took out a red petal from his sleeve and handed it to Situ Sheng and Ding Yuechan and said, "You come to smell it, is this fragrance?" The two put it under their noses and sniffed, suddenly opened their eyes wide and nodded vigorously: "That's right, that's the smell!"
"Sure enough!" Saying that, Li Zhongxuan smiled, looked at Li Zhongyi and said, "Zhongyi, do you remember that once someone from the Lechuan Pavilion came to visit Brother Wei and brought two vermilion aquatic flowers?" Li Zhongyi nodded and said, "Remember, you gave me the flowers." Later, didn't you tell me to throw it away?"
Li Zhongxuan nodded and said, "Not bad." The fragrance of the two flowers given by the Lechuan Pavilion is indeed refreshing. As he spoke, he turned to look at Situ Sheng and said, "If this is really the smell, those people in black are very likely to be people from Lethe Pavilion." Ding Yuechan heard this and said hurriedly: "Lechuan Pavilion? Could it be that the third sister has sinned against Lechuan Pavilion?"
Li Zhongxuan nodded and said, "The fragrance on their bodies is refined from the petals of this flower. This flower is called Luo Xiangzi, which grows in the land of Wuyue and can only grow there. Blooming period once a year, aquatic flowers. The petals are immortal all year round after falling off, and the fragrance is long. However, the flower was highly poisonous, and if eaten by mistake, it would damage all internal organsβI learned from other friends that it was given to me by someone from the Lethe Pavilion. Ding Yuechan looked at the petals in her hand and said, "Your Highness, I think these petals look like poinsettias, will you be mistaken?"
"It looks very similar, but the fragrance is far from the same. This king will never be mistaken. Saying that, Li Zhongxuan continued, "Poinsettia is more common in my Tang Kingdom, but Luo Xiangzi was only born in Wu Yue. The people of Lethe Pavilion don't know if they were careless, or if they did it intentionally, they actually gave such poison to this king, it really doesn't make sense!" Han Xiaoyue smiled: "But if that's not the case, you can't conclude from the fragrance of flowers that it was the people of Lethe Pavilion." β
Li Zhongxuan laughed and said, "Yes, it's really fate!" said, looking at Situ Sheng and Ding Yuechan and said, "With this clue, your third sister will be saved!"
Ding Yuechan thought in her mind, but she couldn't remember when she offended the Lechuan Pavilion, so she shook her head and said, "But, why did the people of the Lechuan Pavilion arrest the third sister? Our Nanxun Seven Holy Maidens have never been enemies of others, so what kind of enmity do we have with them?" Li Zhongxuan was stunned when he heard this: "Oh, the girl is one of the Seven Holy Maidens of Nanxun?"
Ding Yuechan saluted again and said: "The folk girl is Ding Yuechan, who is the fourth in the ranking of the Seven Holy Maidens of Nanxun, and Sister Yan Liang is our eldest sister!" Li Zhongxuan clapped his hands and laughed: "Haha! That's really a coincidence! This king has been friends with your eldest sister Yan Liangjie for a long time, and it turns out that you are her sister! Could it be that the third sister in your mouth is also one of the Seven Holy Maidens of Nanxun?" Ding Yuechan nodded and said: "Yes, she is my third sister Yu Zhengmei." β
Yu Zhengmei...... Why don't I have an impression?" Li Zhongxuan thought for a moment, but couldn't remember who it was, and turned to look at Han Xiaoyue and said, "Xiaoyue, then this is not your request for help, this favor must be counted on Sister Yan Liang's eldest sister!" This favor, this king has helped!"
After hearing this, Situ Sheng and Ding Yuechan said with joy on their faces: "Your Highness, without further ado, let's leave for Lechuan Pavilion immediately!" Li Zhongxuan waved his hand and said, "Lechuan Pavilion, we don't have to go." Situ Sheng and the others didn't understand the reason, and Li Zhongxuan continued, "Don't you think about it, how far is the journey from here to Lethe Pavilion? If the people of the Lethe Pavilion want to set up an ambush, why do they come to such a far place?"
Han Xiaoyue said: "Not bad. If it were me, I wouldn't have to bring her back to Lethe. As long as the goal is achieved, where can I not do it?" Ding Yuechan said: "But, in the vast world, where can I find it?"
Han Xiaoyue suddenly said, "You say, will this matter be related to Han Sheng Tang?" Han Xiaoyue continued, "Yesterday, when Chunxiang was in the house, Master Lingqiu Quan said that the Lechuan Pavilion and the Hansheng Hall withdrew from this encirclement and suppression. For such an important matter, the two factions of them broke the appointment at the same time, and there must have been an appointment first! Perhaps, it was they who joined forces to calculate Yu Zhengmei!"
Ding Yuechan glanced at Situ Sheng and said, "Could it be that your 'good brother' Li Yanliang is also involved?" Han Xiaoyue nodded and said, "As I said, then Li Yanliang must be hated because of Situ Sheng's abandonment, and he wants to harm the three of you." And it just so happened that Lechuan Pavilion had some grudge against Yu Zhengmei, so they joined hands to take Yu Zhengmei away. β
Situ Sheng Yuguang saw Ding Yuechan furious, and before she could get angry, he preemptively said: "What a Li Yanliang! If this matter has anything to do with him, I will definitely break him into ten thousand pieces!" Seeing this, Ding Yuechan didn't say anything more, but looked at Han Xiaoyue and said, "But, what do they want to take the third sister away?"
Han Xiaoyue thought for a moment and said, "There are two possibilities. First, they returned to Hansheng Hall together. They expected that with the relationship between Li Yanliang and Situ Sheng, they never imagined that this matter would be done by Han Shengtang. So they deliberately asked the people of the Lethe Pavilion to confuse the public and trick you into going to the Lethe Pavilion to ask for someone. Li Zhongxuan shook his head and said, "Just like Fang Cai's analysis, the distance from here to Hansheng Hall is even farther than returning to the Forgotten Pavilion. Why should they go to such great lengths?"
Han Xiaoyue nodded and said, "In this way, that is the second possibility." As he spoke, he looked at the crowd, "They went to the Kuzen Temple, ready to judge her in public!"
