Yang Qi and Lian Xi'er's parents used to be fellow villagers, if it weren't for this relationship, even Xi'er would not be the head of the incense envoy of Yuanxiangyuan, but this friendship was not enough for Yang Qi to ignore Lian Xi'er's dereliction of duty, and it was still when Jing Yan also saw this scene.

After several years of operation, he was finally able to call this Jing Gongzi a friend, and today it was Jing Yanguo who specially asked him to lead the way and walk around at will, who would have thought that after walking here, he would see such a ridiculous scene.

What kind of place is Changxiang Palace, it is an elegant place that literati and nobles are fascinated by, not a vegetable market where shrews fight wildly, and it is not a sour and jealous Goolan courtyard.

Even if the Yuanxiang Temple is only a corner of the Changxiang Palace, it does not represent the Changxiang Palace, but it cannot be compared with the place outside. However, when he just walked nearby, he also specially told Sù Jingyan that this incense courtyard was also under the management of the Tianquan Palace...... As soon as he finished speaking, he slapped himself in the mouth.

Yang Qi glanced at Lian Xi'er coldly, and then looked at Lu Yunxian and Wang Meiniang.

The silence, the extremely long silence, makes people more and more uneasy.

Lu Yunxian couldn't help but stretch his sleeves, and then found that the pattern on the cuffs was actually hooked by someone when he was pushing and pulling just now. Moon-white orchids, silk threads that look like a shallow wisp of white smoke, fluttering on the edge of the sleeve. She tried to smooth the thread, but after a few times it was in vain, and as soon as her finger let go, the thread fluttered under her eyes, as if mocking her.

In the thirteen years of the Xiangyuan, she had never been so embarrassed, and she was annoyed and hateful in her heart, so she glared at Wang Meiniang next to her. Wang Meiniang kept her face hanging slightly, and her hands were gently clasped together and placed on her lower abdomen. She wore a garnet-encrusted ring on the middle finger of her left hand, the face of the ring was the size of a dragon's eye, and the fiery red color contrasted with her bright red nails, lining the white and tender hands, which was a kind of enchantment that penetrated into the bones.

The cinnamon branch next to her is also standing in the same posture as Wang Meiniang, but she does not have a ring on her finger, but she wears a coral bead bracelet on her wrist, which is round and full, and although the color is not as glamorous as Wang Meiniang's garnet, it is also a rare ornament. And since Gui Zhi wore this string of coral beads, her sleeves seemed to be a little shorter than the original, as long as she raised her hand slightly, she revealed a small round white and greasy wrist, lined with the circle of coral beads, which was not inferior to Wang Meiniang.

It seems that because of Wang Meiniang and Guizhi's enchanting flowers and ornaments, Yang Qi couldn't help but look at them twice, but the look on his face did not slow down in the slightest.

He has seen the demeanor of the great incense master, and these women are vulgar things in his eyes.

There is no countenance, and there is no aura at all.

Beauty is beautiful, but the air is filthy and turbid, it cannot be awe-inspiring, it only makes people want to violate.

Lian Xi'er was already a little afraid of Yang Qi, but in this situation, she only felt that her brain couldn't turn around, so she opened her mouth dryly, and said after a while: "Yes, there was something lost in the incense room, and I was investigating this matter just now." ”

"What's missing?"

"Some agarwood cakes."

"Why don't you see the king in charge?"

"Master Bai Xiang has something, Wang Zhangshi went out early in the morning, and ordered me to investigate this matter carefully."

Yang Qi glanced at the courtyard again: "Can you find out?" ”

"I'm checking, it's just...... Something happened again. Lian Xi'er paused, didn't dare to hide it, turned her head to Chen Lu, and then said, "That is Chen Lu Chen Xiang's envoy from Kou Nianlin, it is said that the things that were lost yesterday were picked up by the incense slave who went to Kou Niang Lin on an errand, and I came to look for them today, just now they had a dispute because of discord, yes, it was my misdiscipline in Su Ri, please punish Yang Dian. ”

At this point, Chen Lu immediately stepped forward, bowed, repeated everything he had just said here, and then asked Yang Qi to investigate the matter thoroughly. Chen Lu is the niece of Lin Er, and she has some relationship with several incense masters in Changxiang Palace, so the king of Yuanxiang Yuan will sell her face.

Although Yang Qi didn't recognize Chen Lu, he had been in the Changxiang Hall for more than 20 years, and he was promoted from the head of the courtyard to the palace attendant three years ago, so he could guess a seven, seven, eight, or eight with a few names in these relationships.

It's just that after Yang Qi listened, he first asked: "What did you lose?" ”

Chen Lu paused, and finally said: "It's my incense card, last evening, when I was walking in the sleeping forest, I was suddenly knocked from behind, and I fainted at that time, and when I woke up, the incense card was lost." Later, I found out that a girl about thirteen or fourteen years old stole my incense card and went to talk to Boss Ma about business in my name, but because I was discovered early, I woke up and immediately checked the past, but it was still a step late. ”

The incense card was actually lost, and even Xi'er and the others were a little surprised, this kind of thing can be big or small for the incense envoy. If you have a backer, add some silver to make up for it, if you don't have a backer, it is possible to lose your errand for this.

"Ma Guixian?" Yang Qi read another name.

Ma Guixian only felt that his legs and stomach were weak, Chen Lu sold him, although he didn't say it explicitly, but what was the difference between those words just now and what he said. He regrets it now that his intestines are green, and he shouldn't have promised Chen Lu this stubble today, but it is useless to regret it now, Yang Qi has already called his name, he had to trot over with a sneer, bent over and said: "See, I have seen Yang, Yang Dianshi, I didn't do business with that incense slave yesterday, and when I heard it, I categorically refused." ”

Yang Qi glanced at him and asked Chen Lu, "Which fragrant slave?" ”

"It's her, she just went to Ningmei Lin on an errand yesterday, and today the Yuanxiang Yuan found out that the incense room was stolen, and the time is just right, so it must be her!" Chen Lu turned around and pointed at An Lan, and the incense slaves in front of her hurriedly moved out of the way, so An Lan and the golden finch next to her were left in the middle.

It's all cardamom years, all simple clothes and no makeup, clear and clean like a drop of morning dew on flowers and leaves.

Good looks, this is Yang Qi's first impression.

One looked quiet, the other looked angry, but he didn't panic, this was Yang Qi's second impression.

So he raised his eyebrows and said, "Come forward." ”

An Lan turned her head and gave the Gorse a reassuring look, the Gorse bit her lip, and finally held back and didn't say anything. Gui Zhi, who had been looking at them, snorted coldly in his heart, and then became a little proud, and finally was able to get rid of this thorn in his eye.

After An Lan walked in front of Yang Qi and stopped, her face hung slightly, but her back was very straight, but it was not stiff. Jing Yan still had a little smile on her lips, and looked at An Lan a few more times, this girl is really a fragrant slave.

Yang Qi directly ordered: "Search." ”

Lu Yunxian's face was slightly pale, there was Yang Dian's attendant, if An Lan was really found out, she would definitely be buried with her today. Even if she didn't get anything in the end, today's incident was Wang Meiniang's steady suppression of her, and if she wanted to get it back in the future, I am afraid it would be even more difficult.

At this time, Wang Meiniang glanced at her proudly, she glared back coldly, her fingers grabbed the silk thread on the cuff and wrapped it twice, and subconsciously dragged it, the silk thread was not broken, but the flat cuffs were wrinkled. Wang Meiniang didn't let her go, she deliberately glanced at her cuffs, and then pursed her lips and smiled, Lu Yunxian couldn't wait to give her a mouth directly.

Lian Xi'er didn't expect Yang Qi to be so straightforward, she was stunned for a moment before she reacted, and she didn't dare to talk much, let alone ask the people next to her to help, so she walked to An Lan's side in person.

An Lan took the initiative to raise her hand, and even Xi'er glanced at her with some complications, she recognized the thirty-eight incense slaves of the Yuanxiang Courtyard. An Lan is a person who doesn't have much sense of zài in her eyes, she is very quiet on weekdays, she does whatever she is assigned, and she won't be troubled if she is occasionally troubled. But the goldfinch who always walked with her was more attention-grabbing, and if there was anything wrong with the two of them, it was mostly the goldfinch that came out first. But after a long time, Lian Xi'er found that such a fragrant slave who didn't have any sense of zài made her pay attention to it all the time, which was not a simple thing in itself.

Lian Xi'er carefully looked at An Lan a few times when she searched her body, and secretly said in her heart, it is indeed a rare good look, and I am afraid that it will be even better in two years. No wonder Wang Zhangshi has long been in mind, but An Lan has never followed Wang Zhangshi's wishes, and she can't figure out whether An Lan is really unwilling or is taking Qiao to raise the price for herself.

The incense card is a wooden sign about a finger thick and half the size of a palm, and this thing is hard and should be placed on the body, which is nothing more than hidden in the sleeve or pinned in the belt. But even Xi'er touched An Lan's body, and finally even asked her to take off her shoes, and she didn't see any incense cards.

Lu Yunxian finally breathed a sigh of relief, Wang Meiniang's eyes showed disappointment, Gui Zhi took a step forward in disbelief, Chen Lu's face changed, and she said unwillingly: "She must have hidden!" ”

Yang Qi ordered with an expressionless face: "Take it to the torture court." ”

Outside the courtyard, the two courtyard attendants walked in, and everyone thought that the two courtyard attendants were going to take An Lan, but they didn't want to go to Chen Lu and capture her, so the golden finch quickly stopped her feet and quietly retreated.

Chen Lu was shocked: "Yang Dianshi, what do you mean!" ”

Yang Qi said: "You have violated the rules of the temple, and you should be punished." ”

With Yang Dian's attendant watching, the courtyard attendant didn't dare to drag the mud and water in the slightest, and after holding Chen Lu, he was escorted out. Chen Lu couldn't struggle, so he had to turn around and shout while walking out: "I am the incense envoy of Kou Mei Lin, the incense card is lost, and I have the charge of Kou Mei Lin, I entered the incense courtyard today to investigate the matter of the incense card, and I also obtained the permission of the king, Yang Dianshi, you can't punish me, I, I am Chen Ping's niece, I know Bai Xiangshi, Yang Dian's servant......"

It wasn't until this moment that Wang Meiniang and the others knew that they were afraid, and the timid incense envoy couldn't help but tremble, and entered the torture court, without taking off a layer of skin, don't think about it. How arrogant and arrogant Chen Lu was when he came in just now, how arrogant he was, and even dared to make a move with Lu Yunxian, but as a result, Yang Qi was sent there with just one word!

Ma Guixian was so frightened that his legs trembled, his face was pale, and he stood there a little dazed, not knowing what to do. He is not a member of the Changxiang Palace, even if he does business with the incense envoy in private, according to the Changxiang Palace, he can't do anything with him, but at the moment, he is really not sure that he can really go out today.

After Chen Lu's voice disappeared, Yang Qi instructed Lian Xi'er again: "The theft of the incense room will find out the results before dark." ”

Lian Xi'er was worried, but at this moment, Wang Meiniang suddenly said: "Envoy Lian Xiang, yesterday afternoon, An Lan went to Ningmei Lin on an errand alone, and came back late, the time is so coincidental, should I explain it clearly in front of Yang Dian's servant." ”
