Chapter 037: Lobbyist

The carriage stopped at a quyi hall in Xifang District, and Bai Yan got out of the car, entered through the side door, and went straight inside.

This quyi hall is not big from the outside, it is a very ordinary faΓ§ade, the decoration is simple, and the signboard is old, but when you enter the inside, you know that there is no hole here.

There are so many trees that even in winter, the leaves are gone, but just by looking at the dense branches, you can imagine the thick shade and greenery in spring and summer. There is also a labyrinthine corridor, as well as countless rooms, and at the bend of the corridor there are also large and small courtyards and patios. At the corners of some yards and fences, small doors were opened to another street. If you are not familiar with this place, it is easy to get lost as soon as you enter, and it is easy to find a way to get out, but it is also likely that it will not be the way you came.

Bai Yan circled a few times and came to an inconspicuous courtyard, and before he could knock on the door, a voice came from inside: "Please come in." ”

As soon as the sound fell, the door opened automatically.

An old locust tree was planted in this yard, and its branches stretched out in all directions, staggered on the eaves of the yard, and the thin winter sunlight passed through the branches, falling a dappled floating light. A man wearing a hat sat under the spot, with a stove and a tea set in front of him, making tea with a clear eye.

When Bai Yan walked in, Situ Jing just poured out the first cup of tea, placed it on the opposite side, and then made a gesture of please: "Last time you invited me to eat mutton soup, this time I will invite you to tea." ”

Bai Yan sat down, picked up the cup of tea and smelled it: "Good tea, but the boiling time has passed." ”

Situ Jing picked up his cup and drank it, shook his head and said, "Yes, I drink it the same way." ”

Bai Yan took a sip lightly, then put down the cup: "What are you looking for me?"

Situ Jing turned the empty cup in his hand: "When did you learn it?"

Bai Yan asked, "Do you mean fragrant butterflies or no fragrance in the world?"

The world without fragrance can indeed kill the mosquitoes, moths and butterflies attracted by thousands of charms, but how to use the world without fragrance is very particular. There is no incense in the world is just a kind of incense brought by the people of southern Xinjiang, and if ordinary people use it, it is just a fragrance with a special fragrance, and it will not have any other effect.

The things that happened in Jingfu just now, or that kind of situation, are incomprehensible, and the result of identifying incense must be that Jingfu breaks the contract, and the integration of incense must also clearly point the suspicion of the murderer to An Lan.

However, first because Bai Yan would raise fragrant butterflies, the result of distinguishing incense changed, and then because he knew how to use the world's no incense, he relieved the crisis of Jingfu, and finally, An Lan's incense realm was beyond expectations.

Situ Jing said: "Both." ”

Bai Yan smiled: "Last year." ”

"Last year?" Situ Jing thought for a moment before he said, "I was looking for you at that time?" but I remember that I didn't teach you this, and I didn't explain it to you. ”

"It's true, but you've mentioned it to me a few times, and you've shown it to me. ”

Situ Jing put down the teacup, poured the tea again, and filled Bai Yan with the way: "I've only seen it a few times, and I figured out the doorway inside?"

Bai Yan said: "Naturally, I put in a lot of effort afterwards, but in fact, I only learned a little bit of skin, and I am far from peeking into its essence, so why should you care." ”

Situ Jing suddenly raised his face and looked at Bai Yan for a while before he said seriously: "You are really a terrible person, you have been planning today's things since then!"

Bai Yan looked at the bleak face, couldn't help but smile, and shook his head: "I didn't plan anything, it was just out of interest, and it happened to happen today, so I used it." ”

Situ Jing looked at him for a long time, judging the truth of his words, Bai Yan didn't care at all, and tasted the tea with a calm expression.

"So, it was also a coincidence that you met Master An Daxiang at that time?"

After Bai Yan slowly took a sip of tea, he thought for a while before saying, "Half and half." ”

Situ Jing asked, "Half and half?"

Bai Yan shook his head: "Mr. An is a girl's family after all, and I don't know whether Your Excellency is a man or a woman, an enemy or a friend, if it's just my own business, it's okay to talk about it, but when it comes to Mr. An, it's inconvenient to discuss it with you." ”

Situ Jing was silent for a while before he said: "What is the obstacle between a man and a woman, as for whether it is a friend or foe, Bai Gongzi, the choice is in your hands." ”

Bai Yan lowered his eyes and smiled: "The high priest is looking down. ”

Situ Jing said: "Do you really just want to be a little incense envoy, always under her?"

"What this position can bring me is not what you think it is. When Bai Yan said this, he put down the teacups, "Okay, everything that should be asked has been asked, and everything that should be said has been said, it's getting late, if you don't keep food, I will leave." ”

Situ Jing gave him another cup of tea: "You're right, unequal things, whether it is status, emotion, and pace, are difficult to agree. She has accumulated too many old feelings in her heart, and you can't give what she really wants. You know who the person she thinks is, you are proud, you are conceited, and no matter what the relationship between that person and you is, you don't want to be him. But at this point, you have entered the Changxiang Palace, and she is not only the Great Incense Master, her ability, power, scheming, and temptation are all superior, and you cannot fully control the initiative and decision. Bai Gongzi, if you are really attracted to her, then you will come to help me then, I will wait. ”

……

After An Lan returned to the Tianshu Palace, she waited until dinner time was over, and before Bai Yan came back, she asked people to go to Yunyin Tower to leave a message.

After dark, she had just come out of the shower and was lying on the soft couch to dry her hair, and the maid was gently wiping the droplets on the tips of her hair, Lu Yuan came in and said, "Sir, the blue palm matter is back." ”

"Let her in. ”

After Lan Indigo entered, he saluted, but did not speak.

An Lan asked the maid to withdraw: "Say it." ”

Lan Indigo took a step forward: "In the world without fragrance, although Chuan Lian is only the third shopkeeper, the other two shopkeepers listen to her, but she rarely shows up on weekdays, and the things in the store are also taken care of by those two, so there are not many people in contact." As for her identity, there is no problem, there are records in the government, and nominally, she is indeed the sister of the two people in charge. ”

An Lan asked, "What does it have to do with Situ Jing?"

Lan Indigo said: "I can't find any direct relationship yet, it's just ...... After Zhenxiang made the Jingfu, he went to the Quyi Museum in Xifang District, and the shop pΓΉ without incense in the world opened on the street of Xifang District. ”

An Lan raised her eyes to look at her: "Did you follow the town incense?"

Lan Indigo said: "I followed to the Quyi Pavilion, I didn't follow up, my subordinates found out before, Situ Jing has a place to stay there, and the incense envoy should go to see Situ Jing this time." ”

An Lan held her head with her hand, thought about it, and didn't say anything.

Lan Indigo said again: "There is another matter, my subordinates feel that I should tell you." ”

An Lan was a little sleepy, lowered her eyelids and asked, "What's the matter?"

Lan Indigo said: "It's about Yu Shixiang and Zhen Xiang Envoy." ”

"Lu Yu?" An Lan raised her eyes, "What's the matter with her and Bai Yan?"

Lan Indigo said: "Three months ago, when Yu Shixiang went out on an errand, she was halfway to the road, and the horse was suddenly frightened. For this reason, Yu Shixiang was very grateful to the Zhenxiang envoy, and had the intention of making friends, so he specially told the Zhenxiang envoy that he was a person from the Changxiang Palace. ”

An Lan yawned lightly: "I know." ”

Lan Indigo bowed slightly, and withdrew.
