Chapter 178: Different Tastes

The two of them didn't notice anything about this secret rubbing, but after hearing Gu Chenghan's question, they replied with a serious face, "The corpse has long been burned and there is nothing left, before this, I thought I was about to find something, but now there is nothing." ”

Song Jiang was a little helpless, and he regretted it even more in his heart, he knew that this corpse was burning so quickly, he should have checked it earlier, but now it is good, there is nothing, and even the clue that should have been at his fingertips was given up by himself.

"That's it, if there's no left, there's no left, is there a clue to the cause of this fire?"

This is the question of the White Dragon Envoy.

"We have interrogated the maids and servants in this house one by one, and there are no clues."

"Go check the candle flame, isn't there someone waiting here every day and night in this mourning hall? Why is it that there is no one on this day, and it happens to be on this day? By the way, I didn't ask you before, where did you catch the woman in the firewood room today? ”

Even without the words of the white dragon envoy, Zhen Chutian felt that the maid Xiaoli had something to do with the fire.

"Found on the wall of the door, this person's whereabouts are a little sneaky, it's really not normal, although our gate is guarded by our subordinates, but as long as we explain the reason, we will send this person out, but this person didn't want to go out at the door, and finally climbed the wall, it was I who brought this person over."

Long before Gu Chenghan and Zhen Chutian went to interrogate this person, the White Dragon Envoy investigated the situation of this maid, most of which were the same as what Zhen Chutian and the others knew, but some places were not as delicate as Zhen Chutian thought.

But I can still piece some together, and I think most of this woman has something to do with this inexplicable fire, but there are no specific clues yet.

"Where's the candle?"

Zhen Chutian didn't think that the White Dragon Envoy would investigate this matter, so he couldn't help but ask a little anxiously.

"Still investigating."

"Go on."

Gu Chenghan just said a word lightly, and then kept silent, as for other things, naturally the White Dragon Envoy will continue to handle it.

The White Dragon Envoy nodded and left, although Gu Chenghan's words were not explained, but he only thought about the matter of investigating the candle flame.

The moon is slightly bamboo, the house is slowly quiet, because of last night's water incident, today's house is resting even earlier, in the past, there will be three or three two maids still in the corridor to chat about some family life, but no one has seen it at this time.

The old man who was on duty was also ordered by the housekeeper to stop, although there was no light in the dark, he could see Gu Chenghan's subordinates squatting on the eaves from time to time, but the servants in the mansion were sleeping soundly.

A good night's sleep.

In the early morning, when the sun had just climbed into the sky, Zhen Chutian handed over Han Shuangyi to Song Jiang to take care of him, and then walked out of the yard leisurely.

I walked in a trance for a while, and I didn't even know where I went.

"Zhen Chutian?"

Hearing the voice behind him, Zhen Chutian slowly came back to his senses and looked behind him.

Without the bright red clothes in the past, Gu Chenghan wore a white dress today, and the little lotus flower on the hem of the clothes made the originally excellent man more and more cold, if he ignored the smile on the man's face, I am afraid that there was no difference in the noble lotus.

It was the first time I saw Gu Chenghan's appearance in white, "Gu Chenghan? ”

It seems that some people are unwilling to believe that the person in front of them is the Gu Chenghan they saw before, the high-ranking Gu Lord.

"What? Stunned? ”

Gu Chenghan raised his eyebrows when he saw this, his face was expressionless, but he smiled in his heart.

"It's rare that Lord Gu has changed his clothes, it's good to take a few more looks, Lord Gu, right?"

He shook his head, the tips of his ears turned red, and he hurriedly turned his head.

The laughter of the man behind him seemed to be around him all the time, making Zhen Chutian almost unable to maintain the coldness on his face, and even the wetness that he still felt a little early in the morning was much warmer.

All the way out of the mansion, walking aimlessly, the two of them were already tired of eating breakfast in the mansion, so they went out without looking for a chance.

The tastes of the two are still the same, because they don't take too much care of anyone, and the breakfast in the restaurant is not as good as the things made by the chef in the mansion, because the two of them have been walking aimlessly on the street that has gradually been walked by, and the hawkers who shout have come out one after another.

"Wonton, delicious wonton."

Before he went far, he heard a voice, and Zhen Chutian had already smelled it.

Uncontrollably, his legs walked towards the vendor's stall, and after seeing the wonton cooked by the man, Zhen Chutian's eyes brightened a little.

This wonton is very similar to the chaos that I used to like to eat.

"Shall we eat this wonton?"

Seeing Gu Chenghan also standing beside him, he looked at Gu Chenghan with some expectation in his heart.

I haven't eaten the sour and spicy chaos for a long time, Zhen Chutian is not greedy, especially when he asks about some of his favorite flavors, which is simply good.

"Yes."

Gu Chenghan had never seen a wonton before, but looking at the way Zhen Chutian seemed to like it, he couldn't say a word of the words he wanted to refuse in his heart, and he didn't care about the dirty stool that was already defecating in the wind and sun.

The grandmother who bought the wonton was a little older, and her hands and feet were a little troublesome, so even though the two of them were a little hungry, they didn't say a word.

Soon the wonton was served, and I asked the two in advance about their tastes, it was two different bowls of wonton soup, one side was full of red oil, and the spicy seeds floated all over the soup noodles, if you smell it carefully, there is a hint of sour vinegar taste.

Gu Chenghan's bowl was very light, and there was basically no chili pepper.

ate quickly, and the number of people who came to look for grandma's wonton gradually increased, and when they were about to be surrounded, Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan left a tael of silver and hurriedly walked away.

Eating breakfast was like being a thief, and it wasn't until the two of them walked away that they laughed.

I don't know what's going on the street today, there are many more crowds than before, even if the two people have already walked very in, they must always pay attention to each other, for fear that one will be washed away by accident.

After repeating this several times, Gu Chenghan couldn't stand it after all, and Zhen Chutian, who was about to be washed away again, was pulled forward and walked forward.

didn't force him to leave, Gu Chenghan pulled Zhen Chutian along the flow of people, but the unfamiliar smell that came from time to time made the two of them very unhappy.

"What are you going to do early in the morning?"

It is really not Zhen Chutian's habit to drift with the flow of people like this, it is because Zhen Chutian endured it and didn't hold back, so he grabbed a man next to him who looked quite clean and asked.

That's right, there are so many people in the morning, most of them are men, and there are very few women.

"Huh? You don't know? But from out of town? ”

The man looked at Zhen Chutian very curiously, and couldn't help asking.

Zhen Chutian naturally didn't let go of the gleam and mocking look that flashed in the man's eyes after hearing his question, and he was silent for a moment and nodded at the man.

In this way, the man who was still walking extremely fast walked a little slower, slightly allowing Zhen Chutian to hear his words in the crowd, and also walked in.

Just as he went further, the man felt that the temperature around him had dropped a little, and it would be wrong to say more.

"Just for an Oiran?"

Listening to the man tell everything he knew, Zhen Chutian couldn't help but be surprised.

I thought it was a big event to give alms or gather workers, but I never thought that so many men would come to watch a small Qinglou on the day of the Oiran selection.

There is nothing important on the left and right, and now that I know the reason why they are leaving, I naturally have to follow.

didn't continue to walk too far, but in a moment he arrived at the downstairs of the Qinglou, and the luxurious decoration made Zhen Chutian take a few more looks, for the Qinglou woman who was still busy in the room at this time, "This looks pretty good." ”

It was a crowded place for people, and a man next to him laughed very unceremoniously after hearing Zhen Chutian's words, "Naturally it's very good, our women in Qinglou in Lizhou City are among the best in the entire Chifeng Country, so naturally there is no choice for such appearance, but I have heard that the appearance of this woman who came out after a while is more than a star and a half better than the previous woman!" ”

The man looked obsessively at the second floor of the Qinglou in front of him, and said to Zhen Chutian.

seemed to be very dissatisfied with Zhen Chutian who didn't know anything, and on the contrary, tried to introduce this woman to Zhen Chutian, who was said to be captivating the country and the city.

Zhen Chutian was dressed as a man, and the hands that had been held by Gu Chenghan had already let go after a while, so the men around Zhen Chutian thought that Zhen Chutian was a man.

The foreign merchants were the words they said in their hearts after looking at Zhen Chutian's dress.

Not afraid of the gaze that looked at him beside him, Zhen Chutian listened to the words of these people, and vaguely looked forward to the woman who had not yet appeared, it was obvious that he was just here to join in the fun, but his interest became more and more high.

"What? Are you unhappy? ”

Finally interrupting the man beside him who was still about to continue to talk to him about the Oiran, Zhen Chutian walked towards Gu Chenghan and whispered in his ear.

"Nope."

Gu Chenghan did not squint.

"Why don't we go first?"

"No need, just now I saw that you seem to be very interested in this oiran, so naturally I want to see it."

Gu Chenghan continued to squint, not even looking at Zhen Chutian.

Zhen Chutian couldn't help but see it in his heart, he really didn't know what was wrong with Gu Chenghan, it was clear that he was still interested, why did he change to another face in the blink of an eye, but since Gu Chenghan said that there was nothing wrong, it must be nothing serious.

was so relieved to be so relieved, ignoring the sour water that suddenly appeared in his heart, and he didn't have the same expectations for the woman in front of him as he did at the beginning, and looked at Gu Chenghan from time to time, Gu Chenghan didn't squint, staring closely at the platform on the second floor.

The sound of chirping in his ears was still the same as always, but Zhen Chutian was getting more and more irritable, and couldn't help but walk in towards Gu Chenghan, and he was going in some, until Zhen Chutian felt that it was almost okay, so he stopped slowly.

When I was about to wait impatiently, the sound of the guzheng playing came from upstairs, and the people who were still very anxious seemed to be slowly flattened out the rest of their thoughts, and looked up at the second floor with obsessive eyes.

The banquet hall in the building was originally covered by red curtains, and in the melodious sound of the zither, the red curtains slowly opened to both sides, and red flowers began to float down on their heads.

The tidbits were flying, and the woman in the red curtain slowly opened and slowly revealed in front of everyone's eyes.
