After Qi Fang, Zhou Da, Wednesday and Wu Shan came out of the room and came to the chessboard, Lu Shikang said to Wu Shan: "Go, Wu Shan, you accompany me to a place." ”

Wu Shan asked: "Third son, let's not play chess anymore?" Where are you going? ”

"Wangjiang Tower."

……

Wangjiang Tower, is located on the north bank of the Qianjiang River, a restaurant with a history of more than 100 years, the restaurant inside and outside are antique, is the city and come to this city to live in the rich sons and the most popular place for the literati to patronize.

Upstairs, you can see the vast water of the Qianjiang River surging eastward, and you can also watch the sail shadow come and go leisurely, or go lonely.

Hearing Lu Shikang say that he was going to take himself to Wangjiang Tower, Wu Shan was overjoyed.

Speaking of which, this is the first time the third son has gone out since he was beaten.

It's just that Wu Shan has something unclear, why didn't the third prince ask Qi Fang to accompany him today, but brought him with him.

On weekdays, the third prince mostly travels with Qi Fang, because Qi Fang is a practitioner. When the third prince occasionally takes himself out, it is mostly when Qi Fang has something to do and is inconvenient to go out. But right now, Qi Fang has nothing to do.

Doubts are doubts, and he was taken out by the third son, and he was still very happy. At that moment, he immediately put away the chessboard, and then immediately went to the stable of the Lu Mansion, and asked the black-faced groom king Lu Bei to prepare a sedan chair and wait outside the gate.

The black-faced groom Wang Lu had been idle in the stable, so he quickly prepared a sedan chair and went to wait outside the gate.

After Lu Shikang changed the white brocade robe he went out, he took Wu Shan out of the door.

The carriage took Lu Shikang and Wu Shan's master and servant, and went to Wangjiang Tower.

Halfway, Lu Shikang whispered to Wu Shan for a while, and Wu Shan nodded again and again, but there was still a hint of confusion in his nodding expression.

The carriage traveled all the way south, through the streets and alleys, and when it arrived at Linjiang Street, the restaurant arrived.

After going upstairs, Lu Shikang chatted with the children of the rich sons and eunuchs who often came to this building as usual, and Wu Shan came to a group of servants as he ordered.

These servants are all retinues brought by rich sons.

The sons get along in the same room, drink and talk. The retinue gathered at the railing outside the room not far from them, chatting and chatting. Because they are all retinues of famous sons in Jiangbei City, most of them are familiar with each other.

Although Wu Shan did not follow Lu Shikang out as many times as Qi Fang, he had also come a few times, plus he was careful and had a good memory, so he knew most of his entourage.

He first chatted with an entourage standing next to him, and then secretly told him the news: "My son-in-law has discovered a shocking secret, and he wants to inform the men, women, and children of Jiangbei City here in ten days. ”

The entourage, who was curious by his news, pricked up his ears and said, "What earth-shattering secret? ”

"I don't know about this, anyway, it's about the family affairs of an important person in Jiangbei City. After this incident was exposed, I was afraid that that important person would lose face and ruin his career. ”

He told the attendant, and then whispered to the others. Soon, all the entourage learned the news.

On the way back, the attendants immediately told their masters the news, and when their masters returned, they immediately told their families. Their families told their neighbors, and their neighbors told their servants......

Overnight, there was such a rumor circulating in the entire Jiangbei City: Lu Shikang, the first gentleman in Jiangbei, has discovered the shocking secret of an important person in the past few days. He will uncover the secret in 10 days at Wangjiang Tower.

In the evening of that day, Aoeda also heard the rumor in his pharmacy.

It's a bit of a coincidence.

Aunt Fang, who lives in the east of the city, came to see a doctor and get medicine with the support of her son because of the cold.

After Qingzhi helped her take her pulse, she began to weigh the medicine.

At this time, Aunt Qian, who lived in the west of Aunt Fang's house, came outside the door, and after the two met, they chatted after greeting for a while:

"Have you heard? There's something new in our city. Aunt Fang said first.

"What are you talking about, but the third son of the Lu Governor's Mansion plans to say in Wangjiang Tower ten days later?" When Aunt Qian saw that it was this topic, she immediately became interested.

Hearing that Lu Shikang's name was in the conversation between the two, Qingzhi, who was originally intent on weighing medicine, subconsciously began to listen attentively.

"That's it, you've heard about it?" Aunt Fang glanced at Aunt Qian.

"I don't know what it is, if it does, why can't I say it now?" Aunt Qian looked puzzled.

"Maybe he wants to talk about it together when there are more people, so that the effect will be more sensational." Aunt Fang analyzed.

"Probably that's the reason. I don't know which important person's major secret was discovered by him. "Aunt Qian is completely waiting to see a good show.

"Who knows, this thing is mysterious, and now everyone is speculating, which big man do you think this matter may have something to do with it?"

"There are so many big names in our Jiangbei City, who can guess?"

At this time, Qingzhi had already helped Aunt Fang weigh the medicine, put the medicine in the same cloth bag, and handed it to Aunt Fang, "Aunt Fang, your medicine is ready." ”

Aunt Fang took the medicine and went back with her son's support.

Qingzhi checked Aunt Qian's pulse again, and saw that her symptoms were the same as Aunt Fang's, thinking that it was because of the proximity of home and mutual infection, so she was prescribed the same medicine and let her take it away.

After Aunt Fang and Aunt Qian left, Qingzhi had the time to recall the rumor she had just heard.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong.

Lu Shikang didn't discover any secrets in the morning, and he didn't discover any secrets in the evening, only after he slept drunk at his house the night before, he discovered some shocking secrets.

Could this secret be about yourself?

If you want to talk about important people, your own home is the home of famous doctors, and it can probably be counted......

Thinking of this, a chill suddenly appeared in her heart. At this time, the autumn wind blowing from the door in the evening is even cooler.

She subconsciously shrank back.

It was getting dark, and she began to stand up and light the lamp.

At this time, Qian Liu came back with a medicine box from outside, and as soon as he came back, he said excitedly: "Childe, have you heard a funny thing, we have a good show in Jiangbei City." ”

"What shocking secrets are you talking about Lu Shikang to tell people?"

"You know? The news spread so fast. ”

"How do you know?" Qingzhi glanced at Qian Liuyi and asked.

Qian Liu put down the medicine box he brought when he went out on the counter, and said, "Didn't I go to Zhang Jiuye's house to see him just now?" The second son of Zhang Jiuye's family went to Wangjiang Tower today, saying that the third son of the Lu Governor's family was also there today, and Wu Shan of his family did not keep the secret, and quietly told the second son of the other Zhang Jiuye's family The second son of the family was Xiaowu, and the second son told his second son, and the second son said this in front of his father, and I was next to them when they said it. ”

"Oh." Qingzhi responded seemingly indifferently.

"Can you guess who Lu Shikang discovered and what secrets?" Qian Liu gossiped.

Qingzhi squeezed out a smile and replied to Qian Liudao: "Other people's affairs have nothing to do with us." I'm a little tired today, so you can stay here a little longer. ”

"Then go and rest."

Qian Liu glanced at Qingzhi worriedly, he felt that Qingzhi's expression was a little wrong, but it was inconvenient to ask her what she was thinking.

He watched her go out the back door of the pharmacy into the night outside, and her back looked a little different than usual under the reflection of the pharmacy lights.

She rarely looked so restless as she did today.

"What's going on? Did I come back too late and tired her today? Qian Liu muttered to himself.
