Chapter 41: Eating Tea

After Liu Huan left, several people began to play stupid with each other again, avoiding talking about Lin Zhijiao and Liu Huan.

Lin Zhiyu pinched up a piece of pastry, and first sniffed it, it was cheese cake. The milky aroma is rich, but I don't feel tired after the mouth.

"The cheese cake here is better than the ones made at home." Lin Zhiyu said to Lianhua that she knew that Lianhua liked these sweet and greasy things the most.

As soon as Lianhua heard Lin Zhiyu say this, she ate the mung bean cake in her hand and wanted to get the cheese cake, but she didn't expect to choke on it too quickly.

"Uh...... Ahem......"

"What's wrong? Did you choke? Drink some tea. Lin Zhiyu heard the sound of Lianhua trying to go down, and he didn't know where the teacup was, so he could only urge.

As soon as Fei Qing saw Lianhua choked, she hurriedly helped pour the tea, "Little girl, why are you in a hurry?" It's stupid. ”

Lianhua didn't care about arguing with Fei Qing, and hurriedly took the teacup handed over by Fei Qing, and poured it down a few times before he eased up.

"You're stupid, I don't believe you didn't choke." Lianhua was so angry that she dragged the pastry plate over, thought about it and pushed the plate in the direction of Lin Zhiyu and Li Chengyan.

"Hey! I really don't, you think anyone is as stupid as you. "Fei Qing is deliberately angry with Lianhua.

The two were arguing here, but Lin Zhiyu on the side felt that something was wrong. When did the two of them get so good?

Lin Zhiyu listened to the laughter of the two, and she could tell whether it was real or fake. She knew that Lianhua was really happy and relaxed now.

Lin Zhiyu couldn't help but start recalling, when did these two people meet?

The one who stayed together the longest was Li He Changdang Street who took her away, and Fei Qing brought Lianhua to find her. It's today again, but the two haven't had much contact today.

Is it just the first time we met, and it's as familiar as it is now?

Lianhua didn't know that Lin Zhiyu had become suspicious of her relationship with Fei Qing, and was still arguing with Fei Qing on the side.

Lianhua and Fei Qing were playing on the side, and Lin Zhixian and Li Chengyan were like two adults with children, taking care of them and chatting by the way.

However, it is generally Lin Zhiyu who is asking Li Chengyan to answer, because Li Chengyan has inquired about Lin Zhiyu's life, and Lin Zhiyu is still a little suspicious of Li Chengyan's identity.

Lin Zhiyu asked a lot about things in the army, and Li Chengyan answered them one by one. After chatting like this for a while, Li Chengyan's answer was similar to what Fei Qing said, and Lin Zhiyu didn't find any flaws.

However, Lin Zhiyu suddenly remembered that he had heard people on the street discuss that the general was afraid that someone would not be able to find the murderer due to someone wearing a mask, so he asked the emperor to order that the people should not be allowed to wear masks.

Although Li Hechang is said to be the general's personal soldier, he should not be allowed to wear a mask on the street, and the military order in the army is a holy decree, and the general has already made a rule, so they should not dare to disobey it.

Lin Zhiyu still felt that there was something wrong with Li Hechang's identity, and the relationship between Li Hechang and Fei Qing was not like Fei Qing was on top, but like Fei Qing following Li Hechang.

Li and Chang. The general is also surnamed Li and has a scar on his face.

Lin Zhiyu felt that he had touched the truth, but there was still a lack of evidence.

Several people were chatting, and Lin Zhiyu suddenly asked Fei Qing: "Did you enter the city on the same day as the general?" ”

Fei Qing didn't react for a while: "Yes, we all came back together." There must be an order from the emperor to return to the city, otherwise the army will come back at will. ”

"Really? Then why did I see Brother He Chang the day before? Lin Zhiyu continued to ask.

Fei Qing instantly broke out in a cold sweat, why? Because the general, his old man disobeyed the military order!

"Because...... Because the general wanted to reward us, he sent him to buy it the day before. Fei Qing relied on Lin Zhiyu to be invisible, and explained while giving Li Chengyan a look.

Li Chengyan received Fei Qing's eyes and nodded: "Yes, the general asked me to buy it." ”

"I see, then you will go back to the city together the next day." Lin Zhiyu is like chatting, one question after another.

Li Chengyan didn't know if Lin Zhiyu saw something, so he could only think back to Fei Qing's itinerary, "Yes." ”

Fei Qing hurriedly answered: "Yes, we are all following the general, you may not have noticed." ”

Lin Zhiyu nodded to indicate that he knew, so he didn't continue to ask.

Fei Qing secretly wiped a cold sweat, worthy of being the person the general fancies, and he couldn't even relax his vigilance when he spoke normally.

When a few people were having tea in the private room, the platform outside the second floor was always noisy. Especially when Lin Zhijiao finished reading a poem, many people applauded.

After a while, Lin Zhiyu felt as if he hadn't heard a voice for a long time. I wanted Lianhua to see if Lin Zhijiao was gone, but I was afraid that Lianhua would be discovered.

Lin Zhiyu looked at the other two people at the same table, isn't this a ready-made labor?

So he said to Fei Qing: "Brother Fei Qing, can you please take a look at the girl on the platform over there, that is, my sister, is she still there?" ”

As soon as Fei Qing saw that the eldest lady had assigned him a task, he immediately got up to take a look. Fei Qing took a turn outside and came back soon.

"Miss, she's gone. I just asked someone, and he said that Lin Zhijiao had been gone for a while. Fei Qing didn't just ask about this, he also inquired about some other information.

Also, this person said that Lin Zhijiao originally came every day, but now it has become once every three days, all at a fixed time. From about three o'clock in the afternoon to about five o'clock, all the tea money was paid by Boss Liu. ”

Fei Qing had previously scouted the enemy's information, and it couldn't have been easier for him to just ask for a person's travel time.

Lin Zhiyu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, it seemed that the Xue family and Lin Zhijiao were not too stupid, and they knew that they were going to hang their appetites.

But what is the difference between reading poetry in a teahouse at a regular time like this and those who tell stories? It's not that Lin Zhiyu looks down on storytellers, it's just that her family has never treated Lin Zhijiao badly, and she lowered her worth in order to become famous, which no one can blame.

Lin Zhiyu had already eaten and drunk enough, but he had been waiting for Lin Zhijiao to leave first. When she saw that everyone's tea was almost finished, she offered to leave.

"It's not too early today, let's go home after tea." Do you all live in the General's Mansion? Lin Zhiyu asked Lianhua to pay and asked the two of them.

"Yes, those of us who stayed with the general have always been with the general, and most of them have not yet started a family, so they all live in the general's mansion." Fei Qing saw Lianhua go to pay and hurriedly stopped her.

"I already paid when I went to investigate, so I don't need to go again." How could he ask the eldest lady to pay, he had already paid two by the way when he just went out.

They really didn't say in advance who would pay this time, but Lin Zhiyu didn't expect that someone like Fei Qing who had never been in officialdom would understand this.

"Alright then, I'll pay for it next time." Lin Zhiyu put away his purse and continued the topic just now, "Then I will ask the coachman to pick you up at the General's Mansion in three days, and I have to take a look at the congratulatory gift for Lord Wenzi first." ”

Li Chengyan shook his head, he didn't want to wait for Lin Zhiyu in the carriage by himself. "I'll go with you."

Lin Zhiyu thought about it, it was not good to just let the guests go first, anyway, they were all carriages, and they could chat on the road, there was nothing inconvenient, and then they would go to the restaurant together.

"Okay, let's go together."

"When will you two have time in three days? I figure out when I'm going to go out. Lin Zhiyu was afraid that the two of them would have any tasks, and it would be bad if they were delayed because of themselves.

Two?

Li Chengyan glanced at Fei Qing, who was comfortably drinking the last sip of tea next to him. He also thought that Lin Zhiyu was just inviting him alone.

Fei Qing didn't feel a sense of crisis at all, swallowed the tea and complained in her heart that this thing was fragrant, but when she drank it, she actually cried a little when she drank it, and there was no wine to drink.

"I don't have anything, Fei Qing seems to have something. Right? Li Chengyan said slowly to Fei Qing.

Fei Qing was still in her heart that there was a difference between wine and tea, and she said without turning her mind: "No, there is no need to fight, there is nothing else." ”

Lin Zhiyu said: "Okay, I will pick you up in three days." ”

Fei Qing realized that he had said the wrong thing, and the general meant that he would not let himself disturb them. So he began to hurry to remedy.

"Uh...... It suddenly occurred to me that something was indeed wrong. ”

Lianhua looked disappointed, "Brother Fei, what's the matter with you?" Can't you push it off? ”

Lin Zhiyu frowned, is Lianhua a little too dependent on Fei Qing? She remembered that Fei Qing Guan Lianhua was called a little girl, and she hadn't been so intimate last time, was there something she didn't know about the two of them?

"Lianhua, Fei Qing has something, don't be so unreasonable."

As soon as Lianhua opened his mouth, Fei Qing thought that whether he went to Lianhua or not, he would have to follow the eldest lady, and it would be impossible for the general and the eldest lady to be alone at that time, so why didn't he go?

Besides, he didn't go to see the eldest lady, couldn't he look at the little girl?

"Yes! It didn't matter to me that it didn't matter, and I just had to push it off. Fei Qing smiled at Lianhua.

Lianhua was still frustrated just now because Fei Qing couldn't come and was told by Lin Zhiyu, and when she saw that Fei Qing said that she wanted to put things off and smiled at her, she was also happy.

However, Lianhua was also sensible, and said to Fei Qing: "Brother Fei, if you really have something, go ahead, isn't it good to push it away?" ”

At this time, even Li Chengyan's eye knife couldn't stop Fei Qing, let alone a matter that was an excuse.

"It's okay, it's not important. That's all, we'll be waiting for you at the gate of the General's Mansion in three days. ”

Since Fei Qing agreed, Li Chengyan has been trying to kill him with his eyes, but Fei Qing is thick-skinned, he doesn't look at Li Chengyan, and pretends that nothing happened.

After a few were cleaned up, they left the private room, and after walking to the first floor, Lin Zhiyu was stopped by the shopkeeper who was settling accounts.

"Miss, please stay!"

The shopkeeper came out from under the counter and trotted over.

"This young lady, our host asked me to pass this on to you." The shopkeeper took out a bronze plaque from his bosom, which was printed on Liu's Teahouse.

This is exactly the token that Lin Zhijiao also has a piece of Liu's Teahouse, and the bronze medal that can eat tea in all Liu's Teahouses for free.

"What is this?" Lianhua took the bronze medal and handed it to Lin Zhiyu, Lin Zhiyu groped a few times and touched the words engraved on it.

"This is a token of our host, as long as you hold this bronze medal, you can eat tea for free in any Liu's teahouse." The shopkeeper explained to Lin Zhiyu that although he didn't know Lin Zhiyu, the identity of the person who could receive this bronze medal was not ordinary.

Lin Zhiyu remembered the conversation with Liu Huan just now, and muttered: "This Boss Liu is really a businessman. ”

Lin Zhiyu accepted the bronze medal and said to the shopkeeper: "Tell your owner, I have accepted this token." I won't talk nonsense, and please don't talk nonsense Boss Liu. ”

The shopkeeper nodded in agreement and sent a few people away.

However, what Lin Zhiyu and the shopkeeper didn't know was that just after they left and separated, two of them returned to the teahouse.
