Chapter 387: Surprise
"Lord Jin, don't want to torture your own official!"
Liu Hongren immediately waved his hand and said: "The teacher died suddenly, and the official's previous actions were a little too radical and also caused by sadness, but fortunately, the emperor asked Lord Jin to investigate the case together, so that the official was not blinded by grief, and it was Lord Jin who worked tirelessly to find the key clues. ”
The two greeted each other humbly, but Jin Yuan smiled and shook his head, unwilling to dwell on the topic of who was meritorious.
He turned to look at Ning Zhao, and the longing in his heart did not decrease because he met, but the feeling of not being able to touch it made Jin Yuan very difficult.
Ning Zhao is not.
This is not the first time that the two have separated, Jin Yuan can go out on business at any time, and once he leaves Kyoto, he will be at least ten years younger, this time he has only been in the Tingwei Mansion for three days, but he has never had such a life.
Liu Hongren invited Jin Yuan to come to the house as a guest today, originally with the intention of selling Jin Yuan a good deal, but at this moment, looking at the eyebrows of the two of them, all the surging are envious of the attachment of others.
Liu Hongren smiled silently, he still remembered what Jin Yuan said to give him a surprise, even so, when his surprise arrived, it would not be too late for Liu Hongren to give Jin Yuan a surprise.
The four of them chatted while eating, Jin Yuan and Liu Hongren also tacitly did not mention half a sentence about the case, and the meal was a rare comfortable and harmonious meal, which eased the tiredness accumulated for several days.
After the Spring Festival, the weather is the coldest time of the year.
"I asked someone to prepare hot tea, just to relieve the hangover for the two adults." Mrs. Liu instructed her servants to clean up the table and bring hot tea.
The charcoal fire in the main hall was very strong, and with the blessing of wine, everyone did not feel cold, but the wine was warm, but a little drowsy.
Liu Hongren has been tormented by Jin Yuan these days, working hard to investigate the case during the day, worrying about his heart, and he can't sleep well at night, which will be his most sleepy.
Looking at Jin Yuan again, it was no surprise that his eyes were still glued to Ning Zhao, thinking about it tonight, every time he looked at it, Jin Yuan's eyes didn't seem to leave Ning Zhao.
"Hey......"
Liu Hongren sighed helplessly, pointed at Jin Yuan, and teased: "It is rumored that Lord Jin and Mrs. Ning have a very close relationship and are very affectionate, and you have to see it with your own eyes to know that these two sentences are really not meaningful." ”
"Lord Liu, don't make fun of me." Jin Yuan retracted his gaze at this time, and said with a light smile: "Lord Liu and Mrs. Liu are not the same, and they are in good love, which is also something that everyone in Kyoto knows." ”
"We can't compare to you, Lord Jin!" Liu Hongren looked at his wife and laughed.
Maybe the two do not have the affection of Jin Yuan Ningzhao, but Liu Hongren and Mrs. Liu have also been together for many years, Liu Hongren has never taken a concubine, and now he is also a rare person who is dedicated to his wife.
While a few people were talking, the porter trotted in and looked at Liu Hongren, Liu Hongren waved his hand and said, "If you have something to say, you can say it directly." ”
The porter got the order, and then he arched his hand and said, "There is a person outside the door who has come to find Lord Jin." ”
Liu Hongren looked at Jin Yuan, his eyes suddenly lit up, he smiled meaningfully, and asked, "But the surprise given by Lord Jin has arrived?" ”
Jin Yuan still smiled silently, and just said to the porter: "Excuse me, please bring him in." ”
Liu Hongren was very annoyed.
Jin Yuan has been selling this pass for a whole day, and he still refuses to say more when he sees that everyone has arrived!
"Done!" Liu Hongren snorted angrily and said, "Anyway, I've been waiting for a day, and it's not bad for a while!" ”
Jin Yuan smiled at him, raised his hand to add tea to Ning Zhao, and then took a leisurely sip, waiting for someone to come in.
"Subordinate Attendees."
Liuying is dressed in black, sassy and capable, and with that perennial iceberg face, it has a bit of iceberg abstinence flavor, which is very bluffing.
"Hmm." Jin Yuan replied lightly, then put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Liuying, and asked, "Can you find someone?" ”
Shadow bowed his head and replied, "Found it." ”
"Good!" Jin Yuan laughed and asked again, "Where is it?" ”
"I'm waiting outside at the moment." Shadow replied.
"Good!" Jin Yuan's smile widened, he looked at Liu Hongren, raised his eyebrows and said, "Lord Liu, the surprise has arrived, you will be able to see it with your own eyes soon." ”
"That's not faster!"
Liu Hongren waited for a long time, and finally came, he was very anxious, he could still wait there, and hurriedly urged: "Hurry up, hurry up, go and bring the surprise in." ”
Liuying was unmoved, just looked at Jin Yuan, waiting for orders.
Jin Yuan smiled slightly, bowed his head towards Liuying, Liuying arched his hand, turned around and walked out again.
Seeing this, Liu Hongren complained without being salty, and he was probably still a little envious, how could he not find such a capable and obedient subordinate by his side.
didn't let Jin Yuan and Liu Hongren wait for a long time, it took a short time for Liuying to come and go, but when he came back, there was an extra woman by his side.
The sky was dark, the lights were dim, and the woman was dressed in black like Liuying, so that Liu Hongren didn't recognize who it was after several glances.
When the two approached, Liu Hongren finally saw the appearance of the person who came, stood up suddenly, was very surprised, looked at the woman without blinking, then pointed to the woman, asked Jin Yuan in shock, and said, "How did Lord Jin find her?!" ”
Since he searched through the East Palace that day and didn't find the palace maid, Liu Hongren went to check the records of entering and leaving the palace again, but there was no information about the palace maid on it at all.
If you want to enter and exit the palace so casually, and walk quietly, how can a little palace maid do it, naturally there is someone behind her to help!
However, who is the person behind it, I believe that Jin Yuan and Liu Hongren are self-evident.
"After Liuying found out that she had been sneakily wandering around Liuliju before, I asked Liuying to investigate the whereabouts of this woman."
Jin Yuan also stood up slowly, walked up to the woman, stared at her for a long time, and then continued:
"That day, the search of the East Palace was fruitless, and the matter was sudden, at first I was really worried about whether this woman would be no longer in Kyoto, but now it seems that someone is still too conceited."
Liu Hongren's eyes narrowed slightly, as for who someone in Jin Yuan's mouth was, Liu Hongren didn't ask, but he also had a guess in his heart.
Jin Yuan didn't say it explicitly, of course he wouldn't be stupid enough to say it, now that the person has found it, the truth is close at hand, and he is not in a hurry for this moment.
"Alright."
Jin Yuan suddenly spoke, straightened his clothes, smiled at Liu Hongren, and said: "Now that the surprise has been delivered, thank you Lord Liu for your hospitality tonight, the hour is not early, and the official will go back first." ”
With that, Jin Yuan was about to leave.
"Hey! Lord Jin and wait! Liu Hongren hurriedly stopped him and said, "This girl, is Lord Jin going to hand it over to me?" ”
"Lord Liu is Lord Tingwei, who is in charge of criminal interrogation, who else can he hand over if he is not handed over to the adult?" Jin Yuan asked rhetorically.
