Chapter 109
The fire that Tang Huiyuan put was not extinguished until dawn, and not a single thing in the house was left, and all of them turned into charcoal. Even the two people who were drinking and eating at the table turned into a handful of ashes. Xiao Li Ye watched the silver he spent turned into useless coke, and he cried so badly that in the end, his voice was hoarse.
Lian Yi didn't bother to care, and finally simply knocked him out from behind with a palm and carried it away.
Following.
In the inn, Xiao Li Ye was still hanging his head and pitiful for the silver he spent, and Lian Yi said that his body was too dirty and needed to be bathed. Shen Man and Tang Jiuyue were in one place, twisting their eyebrows and thinking about what happened last night. Shen Man really couldn't figure out why Tang Huiyuan suddenly rushed in and set a fire, burning not only Zhou Gai but also himself? There is no evidence at all, is this man lacking roots?
Tang Jiuyue seemed to be fine, sipping tea carefully. Looking out the window, he said, "The corpse case has been solved, we should go back." ”
"Go back?" Shen Manyi was excited, "Are you saying that we can return to reality?" Do you know whose dream it is? ”
"Well," Tang Jiuyue bowed slightly, "If you carefully recall the qiē we have experienced along the way, you will know whose dream it is." ”
Shen Man lowered his head and groaned, "At the beginning, we met the people of the Five Elements Gate and robbed their boat. Later, I went to Miao Village along the river and encountered the matter of the concubine's broken arm hanging in the coffin. Later, I met a big boat with five elements on the river, and there was a white-haired monster on board. I finally arrived in the capital, but I happened to run into the corpse case......"
Shen Man took the tea and drank it in one gulp, raised his head and said, "Then again, the two of us are really unlucky, and we have never been born in peace along the way." ”
Tang Jiuyue glanced at her, "It seems that the power of your unlucky life has not weakened in the slightest. ”
Shen Man pouted, "It seems that Fenglin Xiaopei doesn't work." ”
Tang Jiuyue said indifferently, "Only my Feng Linjue works, and nothing else matters." ”
Shen Man smiled, "Yes, yes, yes, so we have to hurry back to the dream, now that you know who the dreamer is, why don't you find him quickly and let us out?" We've been gone for so many days, and I don't know what's going on outside, but I still miss Sister Lime and the others. ”
"Throw away these people we met on the road, and you carefully recall the route you have taken." Tang Jiuyue said, "Don't you have any ideas?" ”
Shen Man lowered his head and pondered for a long time, Miao Village, Wuxing Gate, River, Capital, Meteorological Gate......
Suddenly, an idea popped up in my head, and the more I thought about it, the more certain it became. She clapped her palms and stood up and shouted, "I see, it's you who dreamed!" ”
Tang Jiuyue smiled lightly. "Finally thinking about me."
Shen Mansu chattered, "When you first entered the capital, you passed by Miao Village, and then went down the river of the village to the capital. Naturally, you want to find your uncle Tang Huiyuan to settle down in the capital, and later you opened your career through the Yin and Yang exam...... I should have thought that this qiē is actually inseparable from you, and this dream is yours! ”
"Yes, I should have found out earlier, but I was in a dream, and I really couldn't have imagined that Ding Feng would have the courage to dream with my dream." Tang Jiuyue turned her face sideways, looked at the shadow of the person outside the door, and hooked the corners of her mouth, "Ding Feng in the dream is really very different from Ding Feng outside the dream." ”
As soon as the words fell, he heard someone open the door with a bang, and then looked east and west, after seeing that Shen Man and Tang Jiuyue were safe and sound, he rushed in with a handful of snot and tears, hugged Shen Mandao, "Master, you're fine!" I was scared to death when I heard the news, and when I went to look at the house, it was in ruins, and I wondered where your old cemetery should be! ”
Shen Man grimaced, shook his legs calmly, "Get out." "Who would like to be cursed as a cemetery for nothing?
Ding Feng wiped away the tears on his face, simply sat on the ground and cross-legged and asked, "I heard that Shang Shuling was burned to death last night?" ”
"He was in the house, what's wrong?" Shen Man had a hunch that Ding Feng had other news.
Sure enough, Ding Feng said, "You don't know, after the bad news of Shang Shuling reached the palace, the saint suddenly issued a holy decree last night, asking Miss Ye's father, Ye Zhen, to take over the position of Shang Shuling!" ”
Shen Man was stunned for a moment and looked at Tang Jiuyue, she was still more aware of these things in the officialdom.
Tang Jiuyue opened her mouth and said, "Ye Zhen was originally just transferred to Kyoto to be on standby, but he didn't expect to be promoted to Shang Shuling, or the will of the overnight, I really don't know whether it was through Ning Xiangye's east wind or relying on his daughter's blessing." ”
When Ding Feng heard this, his eyes suddenly dimmed, and his hands on his knees gradually tightened. "I know that the son who met Miss Ye must not be simple, maybe it is a certain royal noble. With that son-in-law on the line, Miss Ye's father will indeed be much smoother in the officialdom. ”
Shen Man said in his heart, where is the prince you see an ordinary royal nobleman, that is the emperor and his old man! Now that Zhou Gai is dead, the emperor is in love again, and with the help of his grandfather, this Ye Zhen has become one of the three powers.
Yu Guang looked at Tang Jiuyue and saw a faint sadness in her expression. Shen Man couldn't help but feel sorry in his heart, Tang Huiyuan was her uncle after all, and now that he was dead, all people talked about was Ye Zhen as the next Shang Shuling, which couldn't help but make people feel warm and cold, and they didn't care about the life or death of a cold yamen supervisor.
But Zou Yan sent someone to come, and the person who came stood outside the door respectfully and obediently with an invitation card, and asked Tang Jiuyue and Shen Man to enter the Taige to reply.
When I re-entered Taige, I was surprised to find that the people here were all dressed in sackcloth. Shen Man looked at this group of people wearing linen and filial piety, and couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the people of Taige were guarding filial piety for Tang Huiyuan?
Tang Jiuyue was as quiet as ever, she stood outside the gate of Taige, like a pine tree that had been based for a hundred years, steady. She is the future lord of this Taiko, the youngest gate warden in history, and even in different time and space, she can run as freely as she did in her time.
"Wait a minute, wait outside, don't go far." Tang Jiuyue said in a low voice.
"Okay." Shen Man naturally agreed.
After a while, a maid in the mood for love led Tang Jiuyue inside, and the decorations of the Taige were the same as when she came before. Zou Yan originally had his back to the door, but when he heard someone coming, he flicked his sleeves and turned around, squinting at Tang Jiuyue with a smile on his face.
After observing for a while, he raised his hand and pointed to the chair of the pear blossom wood and said, "Please be seated." ”
Lian Yi followed Xiao Li Ye to pick up rags in the ruins, she was wearing a black power suit and covering her mouth and nose with a black scarf. Because of the tight fit, the delicate and uneven figure can be seen at a glance. Xiao Li Ye is also dressed in the same way, but he is not as good-looking as Lian Yi. Because this place is the burial place of Shang Shuling and the gate supervisor, it will be closed by the government for investigation for a period of time.
Lian Yidu muttered, but in the end he was persuaded by Xiao Li Ye, according to Xiao Li Ye, a lot of his silver was left in the house, even if there was a fire, he should leave some left. If Lian Yi still wants to dress well and eat well, then he must accompany him. So Lian Yi came reluctantly.
The two of them easily dodged the useless officials at the door, flew up to the roof and landed lightly in the courtyard. It's a mess, and there's almost nothing to use.
But-
After Lian Yi saw the behemoth in the yard, he pulled Xiao Li Ye's sleeve in surprise, rubbed his eyes and said in a trembling voice, "That...... Isn't that the son and mother ding? ”
Xiao Li Ye's voice was hoarse, and he stared at Lian Yi's eyes wide, and he couldn't help but be shocked and took a few steps back.
"It's really the corpses, how could they be here?!"
The thought of the murder that happened because of this tripod made both of them shudder.
The son and mother Ding were quietly placed in the courtyard, one left and one right, the ancient words on it exuded a dull luster, and the patina covered the entire Ding, which looked strange and terrifying against the background of a ruin around it.
Lian Yi slowly retreated behind Xiao Li Ye, poked his back and said, "Why don't you go up and take a look at what's inside?" ”
Xiao Li Ye grabbed her hand as soon as he turned around, and said with a pale face, "Do you poke other people's backbones like this?!" I'm going to go to see you, so I'm not going! ”
Lian Yi pushed him, "You are a man, this is the time to prove your manhood." ”
Xiao Li Ye cowered and said, "You are strong in martial arts and brute strength, you must be on this matter." ”
Lian Yi didn't say a word, and pushed Xiao Li Ye out with one palm, the force was not big or small, just enough to push him to the edge of the son and mother ding. Xiao Li Ye staggered a few steps, and finally lay on the edge of the corpse tripod, grabbing the edge of the corpse tripod with his hand. Just as he was about to retract his hand, he felt a cold thing covering the back of his hand......
