Chapter 90: Yingtai Street Yan Mansion (Pink 25+)
(Thank you everyone for still voting pink~)
But when Wen Sheng called the two people from the Lin family, the two of them had another explanation.
"Miss Gu, this is all ordered by my master before leaving, we were still worried, where to buy clothes suitable for you to wear, but I happened to catch up with the shop just now to make these two sets of clothes, the lady who made the clothes was weird and refused to ask for it, I looked at the size was about the same, so I bought it. The master said that you and Yun Daxia are as kind to our Lin family, and you must not be wronged at all when you enter Beijing this time. ”
Zhong Tianzheng followed in, and when he saw this, he also advised: "Since you are acting under orders, don't embarrass them." People in the capital look at people first to look at their clothes, and if they want to get things done, they have to be more particular about dressing. ”
Zhong Tianzheng said that Wen Sheng didn't know.
But reaching out to pick up other people's things like this made her feel awkward from the heart outward.
She thought about it, no matter whether what the Lin family said was true or not, it was difficult to find a buyer for these two sets of clothes except for herself, so she had to accept them, and she insisted on returning the cloak and a box of jewelry.
Lin Ying couldn't, so he had to go to the clothes shop after eating, I don't know what he did with it, and after a while, he came back with a cloak of the same color as the original and ordinary materials, and handed it to Wen Sheng.
When I set off again, the group became four people.
The two people of the Lin family urged the horse to the front to explore the way, leaving Wen Sheng and Zhong Tianzheng to go side by side.
Zhong Tianzheng is very good at riding. Regardless of whether Wen Sheng was fast or slow, he always controlled the horse and walked beside Wen Sheng.
In the snowflakes flying in the sky, two handsome horses. Two cloaks, one silver gray and one green white, immediately everyone looked so handsome.
After Yongchang and Jingding, Fengjing, the capital of Daliang, was in Jingding.
Do the math, from meeting Zhong Tianzheng in Jiangyuan County in Yongchang to seeing the capital in a group of people. It's been another six days.
Six days into Beijing, this speed can not be said to be slow. Because he was in too much hurry and had a lot of hard work on the road, Zhong Tianzheng persevered like everyone else, and talked and laughed all the way. relieved Wen Sheng's boredom a lot.
Unconsciously, the two have become acquainted, like friends who have known each other for many years.
Sure that he could enter Fengjing today, Zhong Tianzheng stopped his horse and looked at the majestic and vicissitudes of the Liang capital from a distance, with its thick city walls, deep moats, and heavily guarded guards, and couldn't help but smile: "Fengjing." It's magnificent! ”
Wen Sheng stood beside him, and he also had a lot of emotion in his heart.
She had been in this world for more than a year, and she was only fifteen years old when she came. This looks like she is about to enter the wax moon again, and when the New Year turns, she will be as old as in her previous life.
Because of her grandfather's family, Bai Linyuan, Li Cao, and even more because of Qi Qin and Master Wang Xi, she gradually regarded herself as a big Liang person.
Here, it's Bongkyung. She used to come to the capital of Daliang but didn't come.
Now that she's here, I hope the city won't disappoint her.
She wants to find her master Wang Xi and the "three more rains" Qi Qin here.
It doesn't matter who it is. For no reason, these two old men must not be harmed.
After a long time, she exclaimed, "Let's go!" Wake up Zhong Tianzheng, who is still looking at Fengjing.
There were many people waiting to enter the city at the gate of the city, and there were long queues for miles.
Before entering Fengjing, the prosperity of this capital can be seen.
When the group of four people led the horses into the city, Zhong Tianzheng asked the two people of the Lin family: "I don't have a place to settle in the capital, and I want to go to your Lin family's property to disturb me, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
Lin Ying hurriedly took the place of his master Lin Tingxuan and invited Zhong Tianzheng to go with him: "Young Master Zhong is willing to appreciate his face, my master knows it, and he must be so happy that he can't sleep." ”
Wen Sheng secretly thought: It's true that your master can't sleep, but he is not happy, but he is frightened by the thief who left the post. It's been so many days, and I don't know if Yunlu has caught someone to solve the matter?
The layout of Fengjing looks like a huge chessboard, and the streets are criss-crossed, and I don't know how many deep streets and alleys are hidden, and there are hidden places.
If you really want to be explained in detail by the people who stay in the capital, I'm afraid that you won't be able to finish it for three days and three nights.
The two retinues of the Lin family had come to Fengjing before, and they first introduced Wen Sheng and Zhong Tianzheng to Wen Sheng and Zhong Tianzheng, the Imperial City, Xuanyin Pavilion, Tan Guoshi's National Teacher's Mansion, and several shops of the Lin family in Beijing.
Wen Sheng asked about the residence of Yan Baoxiong of Wuxiangmen, and the two Lin family really didn't know about it, saying that they wanted to ask the Lin family who stayed in the capital to be in charge.
Lin Tingxuan opened three pharmacies and two tea estates in Beijing. The one who stayed in Beijing was his cousin Lin Tingshan, who was in his thirties and was in the prime of life, and looked shrewd and capable.
Lin Tingshan took his cousin's letter and met him very politely.
Wen Sheng remembered the safety of Yunlu, and asked if there was news coming from Shuangtong Town in the past few days, Lin Tingshan said that he had not received the letter yet, and comforted Wen Sheng that there was no news, and the family was fine.
Lin Tingshan placed Wen Sheng and his party in his home, greeted the housekeeper, and asked him to greet the guests, no matter what the requirements were, they all tried to meet them, and also arranged four maids for Wen Sheng, who must be attentive inside and out.
Lin Jing and Lin Ying still followed Wen Sheng, listening to her scheduling, and Lin Tingshan helped find seven or eight guys to run errands.
He hadn't heard of Yan Baoxiong's name before, and as soon as he heard that Wen Sheng wanted to know, he immediately sent someone to inquire, but there was a response within an hour.
Yan Baoxiong settled his home on Yingtai Street, where almost in addition to the imperial city and Xuanyin Pavilion, the best part of Fengjing City, where many dignitaries and nobles lived, not to mention ordinary people, even Lin Tingshan, who had a small family property, could not stand there.
It is said that Yan Baoxiong has a wife and three concubines in his family, and five sons have been born alone, the eldest and the second have been married, the youngest is fifteen years old this year, and all of them have learned good martial arts.
In a short period of time, the Lin family was able to hear so much news, which was quite unexpected by Wen Sheng.
Thinking of Lin Jing and Lin Ying's busy work along the way, she couldn't help but look at Lin Tingxuan's brothers with admiration.
In the previous life, only those families of eunuchs and powerful people and century-old families had such a background.
Wen Sheng got up and said to Lin Tingshan: "Wait for me to change my clothes and take a few people to Yingtai Street for a walk." ”
There is no need to dress up so beautifully on the road, it is too expensive gift Wen Sheng will not accept it, and the clothes that Lin Tingshan prepared for her at this time are also very valuable, but Wen Sheng silently accepted it.
After dressing, he looks like a handsome son of a rich and noble family.
The little maid who was waiting on the side had a red face, and she stared at it vigorously.
Wen Sheng came out and ordered a few people, Lin Jing and Lin Ying definitely wanted to follow, and she asked Lin Tingshan to help her find someone who was familiar with Fengjing and had an inconspicuous appearance to lead the way.
Zhong Tianzheng also has to follow.
Wen Sheng didn't want to ask him to participate: "Brother Zhong, you should stay and prepare for the selection of Xuanyin Pavilion." ”
Zhong Tianzheng smiled slightly, with a confident look: "How can it be difficult for me to be selected by Xuanyin Pavilion?" Besides, if you go on an adventure, I won't be there to follow, and I can't calm down and do anything else. ”
Wen Sheng had no choice but to agree.
At this time, it was afternoon, and there were not many pedestrians on Yingtai Street, so horse teams and official sedan chairs often passed by.
The bluestone road is spacious and tidy, the road is lined with pebbles, and when the wind blows, the yellow leaves of the plane trees on the side of the road float all over the street.
There are a lot of shops, most of them are two- or three-story attics, and the outside looks exquisitely repaired, the layout is elegant, and the sales are all high-end goods.
Wen Sheng saw that there were study and painting workshops, Yinlou tea houses, and several shops selling musical instruments such as pianos and flutes.
The Lin family who led the way is in their thirties, and they do have an ordinary face that can no longer be found when they fall in the crowd, and Wen Sheng introduced that there is a family of these shops, which are all opened by the people under the instructions of the nobles of Wang and Sun, although the Lin family also opens a tea house, but like this road section, it can't be squeezed in at all.
Wen Sheng walked around Yingtai Street, and the man quietly pointed to Yan Baoxiong's residence to show her.
Yan Baoxiong's home is relatively far from Yingtai Street, and he is a hundred steps away from the street. Further down the street, there lived a five-rank Beijing official.
On the bluestone steps, the gate of Yan's Mansion was closed, and there was nothing unusual to see.
Judging from the arrangement in front of this door, the Yan family should not know about Yan Baoxiong's death.
Wen Sheng went around to the back door again.
The back door is ajar, and inside the wall is the back garden, where many trees and vines poke out of the wall.
It was very quiet, and there was no mother-in-law or servant in or out for a long time.
The back street is very spacious, with people coming and going, and it is much more lively than the official road in front.
Wen Sheng looked at a few teahouses and restaurants opposite, picked one at random, and said, "Go in and sit." ”
After going upstairs, Lin Jing stepped forward and picked a seat near the window, Wen Sheng and Zhong Tianzheng sat down face to face, drank a pot of tea, and then got up and went downstairs.
Everyone followed her out and walked to a secluded place, where Wen Sheng stopped.
When Yun Lu was with her, she had thought about it, so according to Yun Lu's thoughts, she would find a time to sneak into Yan's house and see if she could find any clues, but now it seems that this plan will not work, even if Yun Lu is here, Yingtai Street is afraid that he will not be able to enter and exit casually.
What's more, the Yan family practices martial arts, and if they are careless for a while, it is possible to fall into it by mistake.
"Looks like I'm going to ask you." Wen Sheng had an idea, so he could only arrange for the people of the Lin family to do it.
"Keep an eye on the Yan family and see what people have come to the door these days. Help me find out what his sons are usually up to. "According to Yan Baoxiong's temperament, he is unlikely to associate with unrelated people, and the people he usually contacts are likely to be from their group.
"Let's find a way to rent a house in a few nearby streets, and let's move in." She was afraid that if something happened in the future, it would affect the Lin family.
Lin Jing whispered his orders.
Wen Sheng finished explaining, but saw Zhong Tianzheng on the side staring at him without blinking, his eyes were a little weird.
"What's wrong?" Wen Sheng asked him.
"Hehe, it's nothing, I'm a little surprised." (To be continued)
