Chapter 2 Notes

As the top brand of Lanfang Pavilion, there is no need to say much about the beauty of Huancui, not to mention that in order to see Lu Yuan, she also deliberately dressed up carefully, and even the little grandfather Lu, who is used to seeing all kinds of beauty, is a little dazed.

"Oh, it's Cui, how are you doing?" Lu Yuan still has some friendship with her, she used to come to Lanfang Pavilion to drink, and the companions were basically Huancui, at that time she had not become the top brand of Lanfang Pavilion, but Lan Xinhui was considerate, and she was very decent.

Hui Cui looked up at Lu Yuan, Ying Ying's eyes seemed to be about to speak, "With the favor of the little grandfather, everything is fine with Hui Cui." ”

Lu Yuan nodded, "That's fine." Today, I have official duties and I will take my leave. ”

"Little grandpa go slowly." Hui Cui and Hu Liniang sent Lu Yuan and the others downstairs together, and when they took the last step of the stairs, Hui Cui seemed to be mixed with something, and they fell towards Lu Yuan with a stumble.

Lu Yuan's eyes were quick, and he could hold her up. Ju Cui stabilized herself, bowed her head to him and smiled shyly, "Thank you, little grandfather." ”

Hu Liniang has seen this kind of drama a lot, she only covered her mouth and giggled on the side, Lu Yuan's expression did not change at all, and she waved her hand indifferently, as if she didn't take it to heart at all, and went out of the door.

Two people walked slowly from the corner of the street opposite Lanfang Pavilion, one was a young man in a coarse cloth shirt, with a dark complexion, shabby clothes, and a thin body. The old man he was holding was even more ragged, holding a bamboo stick, limping and staggering.

The young man looked at the back of Lu Yuan and the three of them riding away, and said to the old man: "Seventh Prince, this is what you said, when the young son of Lu Yu, the prince of Dingguo, Lu Yuan, the young grandfather of Lu Yuan?" ”

"That's him." The old man nodded, "Girl, old man, I have been asking for food in Beijing for more than ten years, in my opinion, it is most appropriate to find him for your affairs." ”

"I see." The young man was originally dressed as a woman, and she continued to walk forward with the old man in her arms, "Thank you Qigong for your guidance." ”

"I always called Hua just to show you the way, and it should be regarded as repaying your life-saving grace that day." The old man said earnestly: "How to go next depends on yourself." ”

"I understand." The girl whispered, "It's man-made, there will definitely be a chance." ”

On her swarthy face, a pair of eyes were exceptionally bright.

Lu Yuan returned to the Dingguo Mansion, and it was already late at night. He handed over the horse to the subordinate guarding the door, and went straight back to his courtyard, and his attendant Jiqing was already waiting at the gate of the courtyard, and when he saw Lu Yuan, he hurriedly trotted all the way to meet him.

"Master, you're back, haven't you worked hard today?" He followed Lu Yuan into the room, and the maid with his own washing water and a face towel came in and waited for him to wash.

Jiqing took out a set of regular clothes, "Master, let's change our clothes and rest early, Ming'er will go to Dali Temple to work in the morning." ”

"I know it." Lu Yuan waved his hand to the two maids who were waiting for him to wash, and said, "You two, stand down." ”

"Yes, Childe." The two retreated.

Lu Yuan said to Ji Qing: "Don't be busy changing your clothes first, you go and bring the oil lamp to the master." ”

"What's the matter, master? Is it because this house is not bright enough? Jiqing asked puzzled.

Lu Yuan made a gesture to hit him, and shouted: "If you are told to go, you will go, what nonsense!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Ji Qing put the oil lamp in the room in front of him with a cigarette, and saw Lu Yuan take out a small paper ball from his waist.

"Master, this thing is ......"

"Shut up!" Lu Yuan glared at Jiqing and slowly unfolded the paper ball. There are only two words on it: danger.

This was secretly stuffed to him when he fell on him just now. But just these two words, what did he want to tell him? Is she herself in danger and asks him for help, or is it to remind him that Lan Fangge's investigation is in danger and tell him to be careful?

Lu Yuan flipped through the small note and checked it several times, but he still couldn't get the point. Jiqing complained on the side: "This Cui girl is really, since you are thinking about reporting to you, what will happen if you write a few more words, just these two words that are not clear, what does it mean!" ”

"You talk a lot!" Lu Yuan knocked on Jiqing's head, "I can only shout nonsense, and I don't know how to help the master analyze and analyze together." ”

Jiqing touched his head and said with a bitter face: "Ouch, master, don't be embarrassed by the little one, I am a minion when I am a minion, where can I analyze such an unfathomable thing as investigating the case!" ”

"It's reasonable to say you're stupid," Lu Yuan was so angry that he raised his foot and wanted to kick it, "Why don't you hurry up and bring your clothes over and change them for your master." ”

"Yes, yes, you are dissipated, discouraged." Jiqing hurriedly took advantage of the situation to dodge.

In fact, Lu Yuan is just putting on a show, he still knows how many catties and taels Jiqing has, this kid is so good at kung fu that he can't even read all the words, and he didn't expect any help to him in the investigation of the case.

As a result of a night of hard thinking, it was late the next day. When Lu Yuan arrived at Dali Temple, before he could sit down, he saw another Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Shen Yan, hurriedly coming to him.

"Lord Lu can be regarded as coming," Shen Yan is the same age as Lu Yuan, but he always likes to keep a straight face on weekdays, and he looks older, at this time his tone is a little unkind, and his face is always expressionless, "Lord Zhou is urgently called, please." ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for Lu Yuan to respond, turned his head and left. He is arrogant and upright, and he has never been used to being as arrogant as Lu Yuan, but he got the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple because of his father's protection, and he has only been in office for a few days, and he has been late for a long time, and he doesn't know what to say.

"Yo ho, you ice cube face, you're quite tuggy!" Lu Yuan was annoyed by Shen Yan's attitude of direct ignorance. For the sake of my colleagues, I bear this breath! He took a sip of tea and took a smooth breath, and then slowly and leisurely went to see Zhou Zhengnian, the secretary of Dali Temple.

Zhou Zhengnian, the secretary of Dali Temple, was sitting in the conference hall and reading the files, when he heard the sound of footsteps, he raised his head and saw Lu Yuan and Shen Yan coming in one after the other, raised his hand to exempt them from greetings, and said, "Please take a seat." The main reason for inviting you here today is to learn about the progress of Cui Min's case. After a pause, he looked at Shen Yan, "Then Lord Shen will first talk about the investigation of Cui Min's line." ”

"Okay." Shen Yan bowed his head, "Xia Guan has re-examined Cui Min's body in the past few days, and confirmed that he bit his wrist by himself and died of excessive bleeding. Cui Min is a native of Shanxi, his family is ordinary, he has been in the country for less than a year, and after asking his classmates, Cui Min is dedicated to learning and does not go out often. He and Liu Qingyan have only known each other for three months, because Liu Qingyan is quite accomplished in calligraphy, so the two got acquainted, and sometimes read calligraphy works together. On the eighth day of last month, that is, the night Liu Qingyan was killed, Cui Min did go to Lanfang Pavilion, and the two met alone in Liu Qingyan's room. ”

"Cut, these files are all on it, is it necessary to talk nonsense?" Lu Yuan scoffed.

Shen Yan ignored him and continued to follow his train of thought: "But the lower officials compared the confessions in the case file one by one and found something suspicious. ”

"Oh, what's suspicious?" Zhou Zhengnian asked.

"According to the confession of the person in charge of delivering wine and food to Liu Qingyan's room that day, Cui Min and Liu Qingyan had tasted a calligraphy called hops that night."
