Chapter 42: The Mystery of the Sachet

Sun Shaozu rode his horse all the way to gallop, it was already dark at this time, but on both sides of the Yangjiang River, it was brightly lit, more prosperous than the day, especially in the Yanghuai Road area, it was more singing and dancing, sheng singing all night, painting boats on the river surface, lights and moons, it was a prosperous scene.

Sun Shaozu has a lot of entertainment, so he is naturally a regular customer in this area, but when he saw him riding a horse all the way to the left and right, he stopped at the foot of Meichun Tower in one breath.

At this time, it is the most lively time of Meichun Building, the whole hall downstairs is brightly lit, the voices of people are boiling, the silk and bamboo are around the ears, and the fragrance overflows from the inside, both the fragrance of wine and the fragrance of clothes.

As soon as Sun Shaozu arrived at the door, he was greeted by a turtle servant wearing a green turban.

"Ouch, Lord Sun, why are you here alone, are there any friends in it?" The turtle servant greeted Sun Shaozu warmly.

"Go, call your mom out of here!" Sun Shaozu said with a straight face.

Seeing this, the turtle servant couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he saw that Sun Shaozu's situation today was completely different from the past, and he wondered in his heart, but Sun Shaozu was sitting on military power and was a hot magnate in the capital, so he didn't dare to ask more, so he hurriedly said: "Lord Sun, please come inside, I will arrange a separate dark room for you, and I will ask your mother to come down." ”

Sun Shaozu snorted, and followed the turtle servant through a hidden bead curtain to a dark room inside.

In this dark room, the candlelight is high, and there is a large carved bed covered with brocade, precious musk is burned on the table next to the bed, and several vivid and beautiful pictures of the spring palace are hung on the walls around it, and the style of the whole room is indeed luxurious and ambiguous.

Sun Shaozu thought that Jia Yingchun might have stayed in such a room, and his heart was full of anger, and he just wanted to smash all these things in one go.

At this moment, Dan saw the turtle slave leading a middle-aged woman in bright clothes and fragrant powder.

"Master Sun, I haven't seen you for a long time, what kind of wind blew you here." That woman is the bustard's mother here, Deng Jiuniang, who was also a famous prostitute in this area, she heard the turtle slave say that Sun Shaozu's face was not good, and she pointed out that she wanted to see her, and she was extremely puzzled, but on her face, it was still like a spring breeze, and she was very kind.

"Let me ask you if you have a new girl here." Sun Shaozu didn't greet her either, and only asked straight to the point.

"Ah, yes, we received two eleven or twelve-year-old girls from the south a few days ago, but they are still learning their skills and have never come out to pick up guests, Lord Sun wants to see them?" Deng Jiuniang was even more puzzled in her heart, when did this Sun Shaozu's taste become so weird.

"It's not a little doll, it's an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, she looks like a lady, she may be staying here with you, and at night, she still has to go back." Sun Shaozu explained in annoyance.

At that time, there were indeed some prostitutes who did not sell themselves to the Qinglou, but only signed a contract with the bustard's mother, temporarily stayed in a certain building, and would leave at a certain time.

"We don't have such girls." Deng Jiuniang shook her head.

"Am I looking for the wrong place? Is this, is this one yours here? Sun Shaozu said, and took out the small sachet embroidered with peony from his arms.

Deng Jiuniang glanced at the sachet in Sun Shaozu's hand, but was also slightly taken aback, and said: "This is indeed my family, Lord Sun is looking for the owner of this sachet?" ”

Sun Shaozu nodded with a dark face.

Deng Jiuniang groaned in her heart, could it be that this Lord Sun had a night with the owner of this sachet, and then he couldn't remember the name, so he came to the door today?

"I'll go out and ask for you, and please wait here." Deng Jiuniang said, and walked out with this sachet.

Sun Shaozu nodded, and then a person was irritable pacing back and forth in this room, after a while, he heard movement outside the door, he hurriedly greeted it, but saw that it was a turtle servant who brought tea and snacks, where can he eat at the moment, the turtle servant saw that Sun Shaozu's face was ugly, and he didn't dare to say a word, put down the tea tray, and left in a hurry with his head down.

Sun Shaozu was extremely irritable at the moment, thinking that the bustard mother was coming soon, and he was afraid that she would come, so he didn't know how long it took, and finally heard the sound of the door being opened again.

"I've finally found someone for you, this sachet belongs to our Yanyan girl." Deng Jiuniang said with a smile as she led a young woman with a wonderful figure in.

Sun Shaozu only felt that this woman looked very familiar, and when he saw that the owner of this sachet was really not Jia Yingchun, his heart suddenly relaxed, but he faintly felt that something was wrong.

"Lord Sun-" Yan Yan looked at Sun Shaozu, she was also very surprised, but what a smart person she was, seeing Sun Shaozu's expression at this moment, she faintly guessed one or two in her heart.

She made a color to Deng Jiuniang, and the bustard walked out in a playful manner, and then closed the door.

"This thing, yours?" Sun Shaozu pointed to the sachet in Yan Yan's hand.

"It turns out that Mr. Li's father-in-law is you-" Yan Yan didn't answer, but just looked at Sun Shaozu and smiled with a pursed mouth.

"You saw this thing on Mrs. Zun." Yan Yan looked at Sun Shaozu, with a hint of ridicule in her eyes.

"She, how could she have your stuff!" Sun Shaozu asked with a nervous expression.

"Two months ago, I asked Mr. Li to make clothes for me, and when I saw that she had bruises on her cheeks, she said that it was for her father-in-law, so I gave her incense powder to cover the scars, and I also gave her the sachet with the incense powder.

"No, my mother's surname is Jia, not Li, I, I didn't beat her two months ago, I haven't actually beaten her, only today, today, she, how can her cheeks hurt, there must be a mistake-" Sun Shaozu said here a little incoherently, and suddenly remembered that two months ago, when he forced her to drink medicine, he pinched her cheeks fiercely, and then stiffened in place for a while.

"Then I don't know, I only know that my sachet was given to Mr. Li, the embroidery lady of Februarychun, or did she transfer it to your wife? Why don't you go to February Spring to inquire. At this time, Yan Yan had already decided in her heart that Sun Shaozu was the husband of Mr. Li, and she thought that this person looked like before, and she was so harsh to her daughter-in-law in the future, so she didn't want to pay more attention to him.

"February Spring, which February Spring?" Sun Shaozu muttered, such a familiar name, it won't be so coincidental.

"You don't know in the spring of February, how many dignitaries and nobles in the capital begged Mrs. Li to make a dress, it was the February spring on Jian'an Road." Yan Yan said.

"Oh, by the way, that Li Niang is tall, her skin is very white and greasy, her eyebrows are crooked and her smile is very gentle, even if she is Sister Dou Niang, she can't beat her, she is always accompanied by a round-faced maid, as if she likes it-" Yan Yan then added.

"Hi An." Sun Shaozu muttered.

He frowned and smiled bitterly, then reached out and rubbed his temples.

"Thank you, girl, I'm leaving." Sun Shaozu said, the wry smile on his face was even worse, it seemed to be happy, and it seemed to be sad, his voice fell, and then he turned around and hurriedly strode out.

Yan Yan looked at his back, snorted and sneered, and then slowly left the room.
