Chapter 150: The Zhou Family
Min Hu is going to hire himself as his personal doctor and assistant to solve the case. This salary is high enough, a month is higher than Zhao Wu's salary for a year, and it is the same price as the staff of many high-ranking officials, and there is no need to sit on duty. In addition to the female officials in the palace, is she the first professional woman to be hired by a high-ranking official in the Daimyo Dynasty? Or this exciting profession.
Xu Lanyin is very willing to do it, not only for the sake of money, but also because she is used to being a professional woman and is willing to have a job, and the most important reason is that she wants to maintain a closer relationship with Minhu, and can use her "listening skills" to help them distinguish between real friends and enemies.
Zhao Wu only knew that Minhu gave Xu Lanyin a reward, but he didn't expect to ask her to be a "female master." ”
Zhao Wuyin had always listened to Xu Lanyin's words, and seeing that she insisted on doing it, he had to say, "Sister, remember, as long as you are asked to participate in solving the case, the prerequisite is that I must be by your side." ”
Xu Lanyin promised, "Okay." ”
She also spared her life, of course she hoped that Zhao Wu would be followed by a bodyguard.
He was reluctant and said, "You can treat insomnia for Lord Min, don't promise to help solve the case." There is always danger in solving the case, those criminals are extremely vicious, and I don't want my sister to be in danger. ”
Xu Lanyin smiled, "I want to do it." He said that he would keep it secret and not let outsiders know. However, I still have to explain to him first that not every case is suitable for hypnosis. ”
She can "listen to her heart", and she can help solve every case, but this special ability can't be brightened, so she can only help solve cases suitable for hypnosis or psychological counseling.
He asked me to keep an eye on the movements of Yiju Restaurant and Wang Xiancheng, and also pay attention to the military camp, and he would pay attention to the movements in the capital. He also wrote a secret letter to Brother Hong, asking Brother Hong to destroy it immediately after reading it. Lord Min will send someone to assist me, and will arrange one person each in Xu's shop, county government, and Hong's house......
I said that this incident was a wake-up call from my sister, and Lord Min praised my sister Bingxue for being smart and a heroine. I also said that this case is different from ordinary criminal cases, for the safety of my sister, I can try not to trouble my sister as much as possible, and the few people who helped me didn't know that my sister was also involved......"
Remember the URL
Zhao Wu had discussed the code of the meeting with Hong Zhen before, and Zhao Wu had already gone to the barracks to hand over the letter to him, and he ate it directly into his mouth after reading it.
After that, Zhao Wu said about the secret conversation with Minhu. On that day, he went to the punishment to find Min Hu and briefly talked about the suspiciousness of Yiju Restaurant. Min Hu suddenly felt that the matter was very important, and took Zhao Wu to the study outside the Min Mansion for a secret talk.
Zhao Wu explained, "The current press envoy Lord Xiao is not in good health when he is old, and it seems that he disagrees with Lord Min and Min Shangshuzheng, and Lord Min is unwilling to let him know, and he also said that things should be controlled within a very small range before the truth is revealed......
"Master Min is wise, and before I could remind him, he linked Yiju Restaurant to the attack on Zhou Shilang two years ago and the assassination of the former prince seven years ago. These two major cases have not been solved so far, one occurred in Hebei and the other occurred on the border between Hebei and Xiangnan...... Lord Min said that this may be related to a deeper reason, Min Xihuan should not be the biggest official behind the scenes, and his energy is not enough. It is not certain that the current prince must have collaborated with the enemy to get the position of prince, and it is not only the current prince who can benefit from the murder of the former prince...... We must not alarm the Yiju Restaurant and the forces in Beijing, especially the current prince and the three princes and the party, and we must put a long-term hanging big fish......
Suddenly, a hypothesis appeared in Xu Lanyin's mind, so that she was frightened by this hypothesis.
Xu Qingyan, who is engaged in the secret industry, was suddenly called away seven years ago and never returned. What if he was involved in this secret affair and was killed? It's good that he is a dead soldier who protects the prince's side, but if he is the killer who assassinates the prince's side......
"Sister, what's wrong with you? Don't be afraid, someone has already helped me, sister, don't get involved anymore, you don't know anything, you just need to get that person into the Xu family's shop in a few days. Zhao Wu said. He thought Xu Lanyin was frightened.
Things are going very well.
Xu Lanyin said secretly, Min Hu is really wise, he doesn't believe in the current crown prince and the third prince now, this is the best.
The book does not write about the attack on Zhou Shilang, nor does it say the specific year in which the first prince Liu Zhaoyin was assassinated.
Xu Lanyin remembered that Xu Qingyan was called away in early September.
Xu Lanyin washed the dishes with her thoughts, preparing the ingredients for tomorrow's snacks. Yali gave Zhao Wu two days off, and tomorrow he will go to Daxiang Temple. Now, Zhao Wu is more diligent in practicing martial arts.
At the end of the day, Xu Lanyin went back to the bedroom. The big case and Xu Qingyan's disappearance that year, as well as the inexplicable wrongness, always made Xu Lanyin unable to calm down.
Xu Lan let out an "oh", and hinted to herself in her heart that Xu Qingyan was such an upright person, it was impossible for him to commit treason to assassinate the first prince.
He asked, "When was the assassination of the first prince seven years ago?" ”
Zhao Wudao, "That incident made a lot of trouble, it seems to be autumn, after the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”
It is written in the book that the ancestor of the Zhou family assisted Emperor Taizu to lay down the country, and the first queen of the Daimyo Dynasty was also the most virtuous queen of the Zhou family, and the Zhou family had a transcendent status in the Daimyo Dynasty, and was valued by the emperors of all dynasties, and never participated in the battle for the prince......
Xu Lan was excited for a while, if the small wooden plaque was really from this Zhou family, it would be of great use.
The heavy rain did not stop until the morning, and Xu Lanyin still got up with panda eyes. She went to knock on Zhao Wu's window and asked him if he would go to Daxiang Temple, and Zhao Wu said "I want to go".
She opened the kang cabinet and took out a small brocade box, which contained 1,100 taels of silver tickets, more than a dozen taels of silver ingots, plus the 290 taels of silver tickets given by the Min household, there were more than 1,300 taels of silver. Now, she has become a little rich woman, and with some money, she can rent a small building in the provincial capital and open a good tea shop.
Thinking of the tea shop, her mood was a little lighter.
It was raining at night, and the sound of the rain woke up Xu Lanyin's clear dream, and she remembered what Zhao Wu said, and a guess came into her mind. The prince's foreign family name is Zhou, and Doctor Zhang saved the prince's life, could that little wooden card be given to the old divine doctor by the prince's foreign family, the Zhou family, and the owner behind the Hundred Herbs Hall is the Zhou family?
Until Xu Lanzhou came home in the evening, Xu Lanyin hadn't finished painting, so she had to put down her pen and go to the kitchen to cook.
Xu Lanzhou went home once a decade, and when he went home, the old couple wanted to come to the second room for dinner.
Xu Lanyin began to draw patterns on large pieces of paper. Revisions and modifications, she didn't even go out to cook dinner. Qin made a pot of noodles, and after she went out to eat, she went back to the house to continue painting.
Xu Lanyin began to make snow dumplings and butter baked steamed bread slices, and it didn't take long for Zhao Wu to come over to help.
After breakfast, Zhao Wu left in a cloak and a hat.
The rain had stopped, and there were still drops on the eaves and leaves.
Xu Lanzhou said with a smile, "Sister, what do you guess I brought you?" ”
