ps1: No one watched it, so comfort yourself and go to see piracy. (Fart, no one at all, what do you think...... ）

The sound of copper drums, the night passed the fourth watch.

Li Xiao sat on the clean stone steps, randomly playing with the weeds on the side. The time in the palace is quiet, whether it is last time, or this time, there is a different kind of relaxation, perhaps because of the environment of the palace, it is so quiet that people can't think nonsense.

It was also a good time for him to take advantage of this tranquility to organize his plans for the next step, and to think about what had happened or discovered recently.

First of all, what happened, more than ten days have passed since the assassination of Wencheng Street, and everything that can be checked has been checked, in addition to the mastermind behind the incident, even the three generations of the assassin's ancestors have been dug up by the procuratorate and the people of Dongchang, naturally, these news have also been sent to Jingzhao Yin's mansion, but he hasn't seen it much, anyway, he has Zhou Shuyi by his side. Although Zhou Shuyi is a member of the army, he has an excellent memory when he joins the army, but he is limited to cases and the like, if he is allowed to read those four books and five classics, I am afraid that there will be no results for ten years.

For Zhou Shuyi, Li Xiao always felt that he had picked up a treasure, Zhou Shenjun's martial arts, although he was not a top master, but if Wenchengjie's assassination came again, Zhou Shenjun would be able to block a person. The most important thing is that its memory can be regarded as a mobile case library, which is definitely the greatest convenience for Li Xiao, who doesn't like to read.

Getting back to the point, yesterday I found out that the death of the Kamata department was not an accident, and I also met Yang Qiankun, the current secretary of the military department, in Chunguangyuan. Although he knew that Yang Shangshu was related to the death of Kamata, Li Xiao always felt that there was something wrong with it. It's not because Yang Qiankun helped him force out the residual poison. A nine-rank master killed a gentleman with no status in the Qinglou, how can this be seen how abnormal.

"Alas......" Li Xiao sighed, although he felt that it was abnormal, but he couldn't continue to investigate, the Jiupin master stopped him, and if he continued to do so, it would be no different from sending him to death.

As for whether the Kamata incident is related to the Wencheng Street incident, it is only conjecture and cannot be verified. You can't say out of thin air that Yang Qiankun is the mastermind of the Wencheng Street incident, you don't even believe it, let alone the emperor. Moreover, he doesn't want to compete with Yang Qiankun, a master of the ninth grade, even if he has entered the eighth grade now, Yang Qiankun is not something he can deal with.

The first day of the matter is also like this, as for today, I went to the East Factory, and I gained a lot, especially knowing my life-saving benefactor, Xu Shengliang, who can be a friend, if there is a need in the future, he will also be his help in the East Factory.

There is also what Xu Youzhen said, Dongchang should not be the mastermind of the Wencheng Street incident, after all, it is reasonable, they don't need to take action against themselves, and looking at them like that, it doesn't seem like they know the relationship between Chu Yi and themselves. But the most important thing is to know the origin of the assassin in Chu Mansion two months ago, so that you can be on guard.

The news of the black market also confirms this, but I don't know why this matter has something to do with Yuxianju, the girl of Yuxianju is so run, and she actually does these things of stealing chickens and dogs.

As soon as he thought of this, the corners of Li Xiao's mouth couldn't help but rise. But then again, compared to men, those seemingly weak women will not be easy to deal with. For some reason, he subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Gao Changyu, who was busy.

"Of course, you don't need to deal with that." He thought to himself.

In addition to these things, it seems that he forgot one thing, he went to the black market tonight, why did he forget to ask about the courtyard on Wencheng Street.

What Li Xiao didn't know was that if he asked, he was afraid that if he brought the silver tonight, it would not be enough to pay.

The assassination incident on Wencheng Street, the death of the Kamata family in Chunguangyuan, and the assassin of Suzhou Mixiang, these three things are what he wants to find out the most now, and the courtyard on Wencheng Street, including the plan that appeared fifteen years ago, can be put aside for the time being. And the first three things, one of them is missing a mastermind, the second can't be investigated, only the third is currently able to be investigated, and it is what he wants to find out the most. So the next plan is to find out the Suzhou incense.

"How do you feel that the more you check, the more you deviate from the original purpose." Indeed, it was originally an assassination on Wencheng Street to ask the emperor for an errand, but now he took Jingzhao Yin's Mansion to check his private affairs little by little, which is considered a private use of public power, and I don't know what His Majesty the Emperor will think if he knows about it, maybe he already knows it at this time.

But in fact, as far as the current situation is concerned, the Wencheng Street incident cannot be investigated, and the mastermind behind it is really well hidden. There wasn't a single slip on the line, and no one even knew how the man was connected to the Assassin, let alone any of them. The two assassins seemed to appear out of nowhere, and the weapons related to the prosecutor's office and Dongchang were suddenly in their hands.

There must be an internal response, and the people from the procuratorate and Dongchang will not know, but after such a long time, nothing has been found, and I don't know if it is deliberately covering up or really can't find out.

Let's just let them check it, and then Li Xiao himself has to do his own thing.

Yuxian Ju is definitely going to go, unless Concubine Wan Guifei will personally explain it, of course, this is impossible, so if you want to know the matter of the assassins in Suzhou Chu Mansion, you have to do it yourself.

The black market is certainly strong, but the fees are too expensive, and he now has no support from the Chu family, only the money rewarded by the emperor, but he can't help but spend so much, besides, I don't know if there will be people from Yuxian in the black market. In order to save money, and for the accuracy of the news, I have to go to Yuxian Residence, not to mention whether I can get the answer, I have to go to the lawsuit that day, and I have to go in person.

"Hey, I said you've been busy for so long, it's almost five watches." Li Xiao turned his head, looked at Gao Changyu, and asked with a smile, "Is your palace eating so early now?" ”

Gao Changyu stuffed the firewood in his hand into the stove, got up and patted the gray apron full of debris, and said: "No, the main thing is that these days, martial law in the city is under martial law, and there is no way to ......"

As Li Xiao sat down, holding a porcelain plate with a few cakes in his hand, he handed it to the former, and then said: "There is no income in the house, there is no way, Qiu Xiang and I have to eat earlier, and when the market opens, hurry up to help." ”

Since the Wencheng Street incident, Jingshi City has been under martial law, and the streets around her are full of people patrolling the city, so that she can't go out to touch porcelain, in order to maintain the expenses of the house, she has no choice but to find a job with Qiu Xiang to help her, fortunately, it is martial law, those people in the palace have no time to pay attention to them, otherwise, I am afraid that she will not be given a chance.

"Help?" Li Xiao took a bite of the cake, which was a little hard and a little sweet: "What kind of cake is this?" ”

"Shhhh Gao Changyu pointed to the corner of the back kitchen, there were several sacks, bulging, and I couldn't see what they were.

"Soybean cakes." She explained: "Haoguo is now cheaper than rice is this soybean, and there is not much silver, so I bought these to survive this time." ”

Indeed, as early as in Suzhou, Li Xiao knew that Haoguo beans were cheaper than rice, especially after His Majesty the Emperor developed new planting methods, soybeans, as one of the staple foods, had a higher yield. Similarly, there are more products such as tofu.

"Soybeans?" Li Xiao stood up, looked at the sacks carefully, and then scanned the kitchen room, the tools were quite complete, and there were all kinds of them.

He wanted to make soy milk, but unfortunately this delicacy had already existed in Haoguo, and if he wanted to make it, there was no way. I also want to make cakes, but the cost is too high, with the current situation of the palace of the king, I am afraid that I can't do it, of course, I can fund it, but if I can't sell it, I will lose money, after all, the cake, except for the rich and noble, no one will buy it. But if you sell it cheaply, you will inevitably lose money.

"Huh?" Li Xiao pointed to the sack on the side and asked, "What is this?" ”

"I don't know." Gao Changyu stepped forward, took a look, and then said, "This was brought from Aunt Huang's house a few days ago. ”

"Aunt Huang doesn't know what it is, she said that her relatives in the south sent something to be used as firewood, and it happened that there was a shortage of firewood in the house, so she asked for some, what's wrong?"

Li Xiao did not speak, but squatted down, reached out and touched the leaves in the sack, if I guessed correctly, these leaves are a special product of his hometown in the previous life, Guanyin firewood leaves, which can be made into a food, called mountain tofu, also called fairy tofu.

I remember the last life, this tofu is a specialty of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, because of the small amount and precious, I didn't expect that in this life of Haoguo, it became firewood, is it said that they have no eyes, or the fault of the time.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, he continued to look at the leaves in the sack. Some of these leaves are still green, but due to the erosion of time, some of the leaves have turned yellow around them. Take a handful, pick out the yellow ones, throw them aside, then put them in water and wash them, wait until the soil ash on them is washed, then take them out, put them on the cutting board and chop them, fortunately, these leaves are not too long, and they are still flowing with juice.

After about a hundred chops, the leaves that were originally intact were chopped into pieces, and then the gauze hung on the wall was taken, put it in, and squeezed hard, and the bottom end of the gauze continued to drop down on the green water droplets at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Gao Changyu stood aside, looking at Li Xiao, her face full of doubts, she didn't know what the person in front of her was doing, why she had nothing to do with those useless firewood.

Li Xiao didn't pay attention to Gao Changyu, and continued to squeeze with a little bit of true qi. The effect of True Qi was very high, allowing him to squeeze the leaves in the gauze without much effort, leaving behind a bowl of green juice.

Rubbing his hands, he put down his belongings, looked around, and then walked briskly to the stove and fetched some burnt ashes. This is Guanyin firewood ash.

Pour the firewood ash into the hot water boiled by Gao Changyu, and then pour the firewood ash in the hot water on another piece of gauze in Gao Changyu's somewhat annoyed eyes, filter!

Then put the ashes into the green water that has been squeezed for a long time at the beginning, pour some hot water, and stir gently a few times.

"Childe, where are you?" Gao Changyu couldn't help but ask.

Li Xiao didn't speak, glanced at Gao Changyu mysteriously, waved his hand, and motioned for the latter to wait.

Gao Changyu had no choice but to stand aside, her eyebrows were frowning, she didn't know what the person in front of her was doing, she was busy, except for a bowl of green water, there was nothing else.

Li Xiao stopped what he was doing, stood aside, and quietly waited for the water in the bowl to cool down.
