Luo Zhu smiled and said, "Actually, I already guessed today's result a few days ago. ”

A sentence that seemed to be an understatement, but Li Yan was shocked, and exclaimed: "Why? ”

Luo Zhu glanced around, saw that there was no corner of the house to hide, and said in a low voice: "This matter is strange in the Kexian Building. ”

"Kexian Building?"

Luo Zhu saw the confusion from Li Yan's expression, and explained: "Kexian Lou is the largest gambling house in Kyoto, and a few days ago the handicap was opened, and the odds of you winning the champion are one to one, at least half of the people in Kyoto have bought you, if you really win, then isn't he killing himself?" There are only two possibilities for daring to open this kind of handicap, either a fool or a ......"

Li Yan said stupidly: "It will never be the former, no one will be stupid to such a point, it is not a secret, even before entering the imperial city, he also thinks that he is the champion." ”

Suddenly, Li Yan straightened up and asked expectantly, "Then who is the owner of this cyclamen building?" ”

Luo Zhu shook his head slowly.

"Even you don't know? Aren't you specifically responsible for finding out information? ”

In a hurry, Li Yan was a little open-mouthed, and he regretted it a little after speaking, this sentence obviously questioned Luo Zhu's ability to do things, and immediately explained:

"I'm not what you think, I'm just amazed at the depth of the water in Kyoto."

Sure enough, Luo Zhu's face was embarrassed, and his fair face was rarely flushed, but he didn't get angry, but sighed:

"You're right, it's really my dereliction of duty, I've been intermittent over the years, and I've also sent more than a dozen experienced inspectors, but without exception, all of them disappeared inexplicably, and I couldn't find a single clue."

"The cyclamen building is located in the most chaotic north city of Kyoto, built along the city wall, adjacent to the culvert on the left, there is the Bianhe River on the right, the escape is extremely simple, and the underground of the guest immortal building has long been hollowed out, the government has suppressed it more than once, but the harvest is not big, but it has resurgence in a few days, and now it is like an underground dynasty in Kyoto."

Li Yan was shocked, he always thought that the security at the feet of the Son of Heaven must be the best, but he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen.

Thinking about it this way, it is not surprising that some people are committing murder in the streets today, after all, gamblers are irrational.

Li Yan Zou Mei thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Cai Jing is definitely the protector/umbrella of the Kexian Building!" ”

"Protection/umbrella?"

"Well, it's the mastermind behind the scenes, playing a protective role, you think, I can come to Kyoto or rely on Cai Jing and Tong Guan to pull the strings, it stands to reason that Cai Jing should win me over, but today in the court, he spared no effort to suppress it, leaving no trace of mercy, the reason why he made such an abnormal move, I think this is the reason." Li Yan analyzed,

"Well, what you said makes sense, but this matter is extremely difficult to verify, you must not risk your life."

"There is no need to verify, as long as Cai Jing is brought down, everything will fall into place." Li Yan squinted his eyes, inadvertently revealing a touch of murderous intent and confidence.

Luo Zhu saw it all in his eyes, and nodded secretly, if he put others aside, don't say that he is against Cai Jing, even if he hears the name, he will tremble with fright.

And the young man in front of him is very arrogant on weekdays, but he is unambiguous when he encounters serious things, and he has surpassed many people with this kind of courage, maybe he will really be a character in the future.

"It's not too early, I won't disturb your meal, don't leave it at that, just look for me if you have something, don't be polite."

Li Yan said, "Why don't you stay and eat together." ”

"Luo never eats out."

In fact, Luo Zhu didn't say that he never stayed in other people's homes for more than a quarter of an hour, but this case was broken in Kaifeng Mansion that day, and it was still broken for him Li Yan.

"Oh, that's the case, it's inconvenient to stay in the next place, I'll send you out of the house."

"Stay, if you let Yushitai see us so affectionate, it will definitely cause trouble, and Luo will leave by himself."

Luo Zhu tapped Li Yan's shoulder with a fan, and then walked out of the study by himself.

……

Lee's house, canteen.

In order to be able to put out all the ingredients given by the emperor, there were ten more long tables in the hall, and since the Li Mansion did not prepare so many, many of them were moved from the Yan Mansion.

When Master Yan learned that the emperor had given him a golden pot, regardless of his status, he also walked out of the Buddhist hall and stood at the gate of the mansion to watch the excitement, and his heart finally let go.

When Wang Dalang took people back to the house to move the table, he was startled, the old man actually went out of the house, and he was busy kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to say hello.

Unexpectedly, the old man snorted coldly and said, "Your little cub is okay, but my granddaughter and grandson-in-law are in vain, it seems that the old man of the palace banquet given by the emperor is not happy." ”

Wang Dalang explained for Li Yan: "My uncle will talk to Luo Zhu again with the Imperial City Division, and I will come to invite the ancestor after the discussion." ”

"What about your aunt?" The old man did not forgive.

Wang Dalang smiled bitterly, he had been in Yanfu for more than 20 years, and he had never seen the old man so hypocritical, so he turned around and glanced at a child under his hands.

The kid was also clever, turned around and ran back to Li's house.

After a while, Yan Jiuniang lifted the corner of her skirt, walked over with inch by inch, grabbed the old man's arm and said:

"I heard them say that grandpa made a little petty? It's Meng'er's negligence and making amends to you, Li Lang is still accompanying Lord Luo, so he can't be blamed for this. ”

Old man Yan pointed to Yan Jiuniang's nose and quipped: "Hey, plug the door upside down, plug the door upside down, just talk about it, you, sooner or later, your surname will be Li." ”

"Let's go, grandpa, don't talk about these annoying things." Yan Jiuniang said coquettishly.

"Yes, if it weren't for the reputation of plugging the door upside down, Li Yan's kid wouldn't make people laugh, speaking of ...... Hey......" Old Man Smoke sighed.

Yan Jiuniang also showed a touch of sadness, but it was fleeting, thinking that she had quarreled with Li Yan this morning, and she forgot about it at night.

I even forgot what I was fighting about, and I can be so unresentful, maybe only people who love each other can do it.

As soon as the grandfather and grandson took two steps, they heard someone behind them: "I said Meng'er girl, your fifth uncle can stand at the door for a long time, you only have the old man in your eyes, and there is no fifth uncle?" ”

It can be seen that Yan Lao Wu is in a good mood today, and he is talking to Yan Jiuniang with a smile on his face, which is unexpected.

Yan Jiuniang quipped: "Yo, don't you dare, the fifth uncle has always looked down on Li Lang, how dare you condescend." ”

Yan Lao Wu pinched his waist and laughed: "Hey, I like this kid from today on, if I didn't have him, where would I win so much money." ”

"What?" Yan Jiuniang and the old man stopped at the same time and looked at Yan Lao Wu with a questioning expression.

Yan Lao Wu patted his mouth and said, "My mouth." ”

"Tell me clearly, what's going on!" The old man smoked the faucet and turned around.

Yan Lao Wu had no choice, so he told the story of the opening of the cyclamen building.

Others pressed Li Yan as the champion, but he didn't look down on Li Yan, and after drinking the flower wine that day, he pressed Li Yan in a daze to fall off the list by 10,000 taels......
