Moxiang Pavilion

This is a famous green building in the Dashilar area, it was once a place where merry literati and dignitaries often go - not only the signboard is elegant, but the first card inside is the national color and fragrance, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all connected, it is said that even the emperor knows one or two, and the name of the head card is also extremely vulgar:

jasmine

At that time, Moxiang Pavilion can be described as infinitely beautiful, as long as there is the top news, that alley will inevitably be full of admirers that day and night, and it is difficult to travel.

But the moon is cloudy and sunny, and people have old faces and yellow days. No matter how Jasmine takes care of her beauty, she can't withstand the carving of the years, even if she practices her skills diligently, the countless people who swore by the sea and the mountains and the words of the past are still gone, even if they encounter them on the street, they are all detours to avoid. Moxiang Pavilion naturally has no more of its former glory.

After Jasmine took over this place, she held on like this for more than ten years, but she felt that she couldn't stand it anymore, and planned to sell her livelihood next month and divide some silver between the top and bottom to stop.

As a result, a pair of sisters came half a month ago, and they wanted to enter this Moxiang Pavilion to make a double-headed card.

Jasmine was a man of sharp eyes, and signed a deed of sale on the spot, but the two women only asked for a secluded residence, and no one should be disturbed at night on a few days of the month, and they did not care about important matters such as ransom.

Although Jasmine had doubts in her heart, she thought that her Moxiang Pavilion was going to be closed, and there was nothing to worry about, so she stopped pursuing. The names of the two women were:

Gentle and soft

"Mother Jasmine!"

Today, the bowl is full, and Jasmine, who is beckoning people to clean up the hall, looks at it with a pleasant face, and there are no guests around, only Master Su who was left before crossed his legs and waved his hand. "Why did you accept the money and be unkind?"

Jasmine clapped her hands and walked over quickly and smiled: "Master Su, what are you talking about?" ”

And then the color changed slightly: "Isn't this a special notice from the government that this territory has not been peaceful recently, and it is forbidden to live overnight......"

Master Su laughed and said, "It's not difficult—I'm not in charge of this piece?" ”

Jasmine is overjoyed, you must know that the surrounding green buildings have been closed before the time of the day recently, and if this relationship is dredged, there is only one family in the Fangyuan realm...... But then I thought about it, how could it be so simple?

"But—"

Sure enough, Master Su changed his words and said: "Up and down are all things that need to be checked......"

"Hi-Master Su......" Jasmine slapped the round fan in her hand on her shoulder, and casually took out a stack of silver tickets in her arms and stuffed them into the other party's official sleeve and said: "Isn't it common for the slave family to be filial, how can this be reminded by Lord Su?" ”

The two looked at each other and laughed, and then Master Su pinched his chin lightly and said:

"Mother Jasmine—one more thing...... These two girls, Yourou and Chu Rou, are now ......"

"Oops—Sue-sama"

I saw Jasmine with a sad expression on her face and said: "You don't know that the slave family's Moxiang Pavilion has been relieved in the past few years because of the two sisters Yourou and Chu Rou, and since the day they entered here, they have made an agreement with the slave family to only perform on the evening of each month, and other things will not bother them, and in addition, the slave family's requirements will be accepted." Unfortunately, today is the agreed period. ”

Then he sighed faintly and said: "The two of them do not climb power, do not attach nobles, and do not do it for money, and even the slave family has read countless people...... It's also incomprehensible. ”

"That's enough—"

Master Su waved his hand violently and made a "stop" gesture, and said with a displeased face: "Mother Jasmine, I asked with such kind words, don't you lose face?" Then he got up and walked out of the hall, put his hand behind him and said leisurely: "You also said just now, it has not been peaceful recently, and the most unpeaceful place is the murder of you in the alley near Moxiang Pavilion!" ”

Master Su deliberately accentuated the tone of "human murder", stopped at the door and turned his head sideways and said: "Maybe this boundary will be strictly investigated in the next few days, but unfortunately it is near this Moxiang Pavilion, Jasmine's mother is preparing to close the store and rest for a few days——"

"Master Su...... Isn't it just an ordinary case? How did it become a homicide ......? ”

"No need to send it—"

Jasmine wanted to save something, but Master Su walked out with a wave of her hand.

"Lord Sue-"

The foot that was about to take a step stopped in mid-air, and I felt that the sound of calling myself was as melodious as the chirping of a yellow bird.

"Hey—Chu Meiren—"

Master Su turned around, only to see the dancing figure he had seen on the stage just now, but he was standing at the door leading to the backyard.

"Chu Rou?"

Jasmine is so strange, just because even if something important happens at night during the appointment over the years, the two sisters have never gone out of the door for half a step, why did this Chu Rou come to the front hall today? Looking closely, I saw that Chu Rou's cheeks were flushed, but she walked with a slight feeling of drunkenness, and she couldn't help but cry out worriedly.

"Mom, it's okay-"

Chu Rou wiped her cherry lips and smiled at Jasmine, and then slowly approached Master Su, her jade hand lightly hooked the corner of the latter's sleeve, and without waiting for the other party to react, she pulled it over and walked towards the backyard step by step...... Jasmine finally breathed a sigh of relief when she looked at the backs of the two.

After two days like this, it was peaceful.

At noon, Jasmine was sitting on the street to rest, she had just drunk a small glass of wine, and she was secretly scolding this Lord Su for not doing anything when she got cheap, and she only heard the noise of the alley when she was slightly drunk......

"Get out of the way—get out of the way!"

Passers-by were pushed aside, and countless figures walked quickly to stop in front of Moxiang Pavilion.

"Who's in charge here——?

I saw that all the people who came were soldiers, and the leader had a short sword at his waist, and he was standing in front of Jasmine and scanning the surroundings and asking.

"Yo-in broad daylight, there will be soldiers who come to patronize the Moxiang Pavilion of the slave family."

Jasmine propped herself up, leaned over as she spoke, only to feel her body fall straight down and fall to the ground.

"This official has an important business!"

The officer at the head avoided it and then snapped and said, "If there is another ...... No wonder the official is not welcome! He put his hand on the hilt of his sword.

Jasmine woke up eight points when she was drunk, but after all, her mind was not comparable to ordinary people, and her face did not change for half a minute, and she got up and said, "What is the matter with the soldier?" ”

"I'll get you here—"

The man pointed at Moxiang Pavilion and said, "Call them all out!" ”

Jasmine naturally knew the severity, and hurriedly beckoned inward for nearly 100 people up and down the Moxiang Pavilion to gather on the street. You must know that although Moxiang Pavilion is the most popular with Yourou and Chu Rou's double-headed cards, it is an old Qinglou after all, and there is no shortage of girls with good looks.

"Get out of the way—quietly—"

The leader of the officer shouted and waved his hand and said, "Escort here!" ”

The soldiers in the back row were divided into two groups, and a total of six people dragged the three men who were obviously seriously injured.

"You guys!" The official said sharply to the three of them: "Seeing this crowd clearly, can there be anyone who is with Master Su in the end?!" ”

When the three of them heard the call, they raised their scarred faces with all their strength, and glanced at the people in the Moxiang Pavilion in the distance, and when they saw Jasmine, their eyes paused, and the latter couldn't help but be shocked when they saw the appearance of these three people:

"Aren't these three people the guards next to Master Su the day before yesterday?!"

"Yes...... She ......"

"Take ——!"

"Huh-"

Everyone was shocked, only to see several soldiers suddenly step forward to Jasmine's side, clasp their hands, and raise Jasmine's slender arms back, and their bodies were pressed down. How could anyone have ever seen such a scene, and if they lost their lives at the slightest mistake, how could anyone dare to step forward?

"Search ——!"

The officer shouted with a wave of his arm, and the rest of the soldiers immediately poured into the courtyard of the Moxiang Pavilion after hearing the order.

"Soldier—"

The official only felt a sweet smell wafting in, and when he looked around, he saw a woman who had been very famous all his life and was dressed in bright clothes calling him beside him.

"You...... Who are you?! The official's mind was slightly blurred, but then he woke up and shouted: "The people of Moxiang Pavilion immediately stand back!" He put his hand on the hilt of his sword again.

The person who came was Chu Rou, who couldn't help but be a little startled when he saw the official's resistance, and then chuckled, and the jade hand secretly swept over the back of the official's hand holding the hilt of the sword, his eyes closed slightly, and said softly: "Master Bing - what is the so-called thing here——? ”

The sound seemed to have penetrated into the spleen and lungs, and the soldiers on the side were also fascinated by it. Looking at the official again, he actually lowered the hand holding the hilt of the sword, and said slowly with a blurred look in his eyes: "Master Su...... I haven't been to the cabinet for two days, and I'm ...... at home I don't know where he is...... Matters...... Send me to wait...... Pursue the matter...... ...... Today Come and ......"

"Adult ——!"

Behind him, from the courtyard of Moxiang Pavilion, there were several soldiers shouting, and the officer suddenly stared, as if he didn't know what was happening, he looked around, slapped himself up and down several times, and suddenly looked behind him and asked, "What did you find?!" ”

"Your Excellency, please look at ——!"

The soldier hurried to the officer's side, and in his hand what appeared to be a blue cloth, and the latter could not help but be shocked when he saw it.

I saw that this broken cloth was only three inches long, and the edges seemed to be torn by gravity, but the corner showed the claw embroidery pattern of a leopard beast - it was obvious that it was a three-grade military attache robe!

"Take down all of them!"
