Chapter Seventy-Six: Peeping
The spring rain fell in a pour, the rain was not heavy, but the sparse and sparse one fell overnight.
The air was filled with the smell of rain and earth.
Chuntang pushed the door in and said happily: "Miss, it's raining." ”
Come to think of it, it's been a long time since it rained.
Wei Yun raised her head from the book, smiled at her little maid, and stared at the book in her hand.
Holding a broom in the hallway, I reached out to catch a few drizzles, ready to clean up the fallen flowers in the yard.
"Chuntang, I'm cleaning when the rain stops, and I'm going to prepare breakfast first." Wei Yun walked out of the room and took two breaths of the air after the rain.
Chuntang pinched the broom, was stunned, looked up, and asked suspiciously, "Miss, do you still have to have breakfast now?" ”
Wei Yun squinted at the green leaves of Bairihong, nodded and said lightly: "I'm going to Kaiyuan Temple today and have dinner early." ”
Chuntang also knew that Miss went to Kaiyuan Temple to find clues, so she didn't ask too much and went down to prepare a meal.
After Feng Chuntang left, Wei Yun suddenly said, "Come out." ”
The wind blew gently, and the yard was quiet and there was no one.
Still not out yet?
Wei Yun raised his eyebrows, pinched the paper fan and walked to Bai Rihong, the fan in his hand made a sword and stabbed into the green leaves, and a black shadow suddenly came out of the green leaves.
Chuntang, who came back, happened to see this scene, was stunned and gritted his teeth, walked up quickly, pulled Yan Sen's ears and opened his mouth to scold: "Okay, you are not small, you dare to peep at my young lady." ”
Peep?
Yan Sen was startled, where was this going to the master, and he didn't pick out his eyes, he greeted the ear with one hand, and hurriedly said: "Sister Chuntang, don't talk nonsense, I am on the orders of my master to secretly protect your young lady." ”
Chuntang put one hand on his waist, and the hand holding his ear did not let go at all, slanted at him, and grasped the point: "Eldest sister? Surreptitiously? ”
When Yan Sen heard this, his face was a little unnatural, he coughed lightly, and said flatteringly: "Spring ...... Chuntang, you let go first, let go. ”
Dare to call her eldest sister? This little guard's brain is not very useful.
"Okay, Chuntang, you let go of him." Wei Yun sat on a chair in the corridor, her expression was faint, and she couldn't see her emotions.
Yan Sen bared his teeth and rubbed his ears for a while, the two ears were different colors, which looked quite funny.
This little girl, why is she so vigorous.
He straightened the clothes on his body, bowed to the girl, and said respectfully: "Miss Yun, the master asked me to come...... Protect you. ”
After thinking about it, he still omitted the two words in secret, mainly because it was too embarrassing.
Thinking that he was discovered just now, he kept saying that he was secretly protecting, which made the look on his face a little unusual, his face was gone, and when he went back to the master, he knew about it, and he was afraid that half a year's clean room would be inevitable, thinking that the eldest brother was still scrubbing in the clean room day and night, and he had to scrub it when it was very clean, and his heart was full of bitterness.
But he felt that he was hiding it very well, and this kind of hiding was difficult for even ordinary masters to discover.
This time, he has been found three times, once on the persimmon tree, once on the tree in the back mountain, and once now.
He glanced back at the hundred days red that was swaying in the wind, his name was Yan Sen, and his name was Mu Zong, so he couldn't fight with Mu.
Straightened the forbidden step on the hem of his skirt, and said with a faint expression, "Since it's protection, you don't have to hide in the tree and follow me." ”
His face was hot in an instant, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the girl in plain clothes was lowering her head and playing with the paper fan, he thought about it for a long time and still asked cheekily, "May I ask how Miss Yun found out that I was hiding in the tree." He paused and said, "And last time on the persimmon tree in Kaiyuan Temple, on the tree in the back mountain." ”
Wei Yun raised her eyebrows and chuckled, "You remember it quite clearly." ”
Can he not remember this kind of embarrassing thing?
Okay, both ears are red, and even the skin is tight.
The paper fan in her hand made a beautiful spin in mid-air, and it fell steadily into her hand with a snap, and she said lightly: "I said, do you believe this intuition?" ”
Yan Sen's body was even lower, and he opened his mouth to spit out one word: "Letter!" ”
Wei Yun nodded lightly and didn't say more.
It's not that Yan Sen is a sycophant, it's just that he remembered that when he was a child, his eldest brother and second brother always let him carry the pot when he got into trouble, and promised to give him five pieces of candy when the time came.
He happily agreed, at most he would be beaten for ten pieces of candy, and besides, his mother had already polished his skin thickly, and it didn't hurt at all, which was simply earned.
Later, he went to admit that his mother didn't believe it, and beat his eldest brother and second brother, and he didn't have any candy, and his mother said at that time: "You can fool me, but you can't fool my intuition." ”
At that time, he was still surprised, women and women's intuition are separated?
After finishing breakfast and leading two horses out of the stable, Wei Yun and Yan Sen rode to Kaiyuan Temple, while Chuntang was left at home with an unhappy face.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to pull Yan Sen's ears and threatened: "If something happens to my young lady, don't want your ears." ”
The two of them went out of the house, they didn't stop much along the way, the wind blew and brought a few words of gossip, Wei Yun's face was as usual and he didn't pay attention to it, and when he turned a corner, he saw Lin Mo's back, dressed in a purple and red official robe, riding a horse against the drizzle, followed closely by three or five officials.
Wei Yun tightened the reins and stopped the horse, and watched faintly as the back gradually faded away.
A few gossips came from behind him, and he was scared away by Yan Sen's eyes.
"He's in such a hurry, where is he going?" Wei Yun kicked the paper fan in her arms, habitually trying to grope, and gave up at the thought of riding a horse.
Yan Sen saw that the figure of his master had already turned the corner and was out of sight, while Miss Yun was still watching.
"Miss Yu woke up last night, and the master is so anxious that she is afraid that she will go to interrogate."
Wei Yun nodded, lifted his cloak and hat, and galloped away.
The fine rain seemed to be a little heavier than just now, hitting the face and eyes.
He narrowed his eyes and glanced sideways at Zhang Qian, who was a little poor in equestrian skills behind him, but followed closely behind him, if he hadn't buttoned a fair and honest hat, Zhang Qian wouldn't want to come with him.
Zhang Qian was dressed in a four-grade official robe, showing off Yun Yan on his chest, at this time, because of the bumps on the horse's back, his whole body was attached to the horse's back, and only half of Yun Yan's leg was exposed.
The cheeks seem to be full of depression, plus the rain beats on the cheeks, slightly red, looks a little embarrassed, the temples are a little gray, and it is also old, sticking to the position of Shaoqing in Dali Temple, just waiting for the old man to return to his hometown, Bo a good reputation as an official all his life, and by the way, he received the condolence money sent by the court every month.
Several people rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the doorman saw that Lin Mo and Zhang Qian did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly introduced them into the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After drinking two cups of tea in the hall, Prime Minister Yu Cheng walked over slowly, and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, I have a lot of official business, so I finally found some time." ”
Lin Mo knew that Prime Minister Yu Cheng was deliberately giving them a dismount.
At that moment, Zhang Qian hurriedly smiled and replied: "Prime Minister Yu Cheng is busy with official business, and the officials have been disturbed a few times. ”
Everyone sat down, and a few maids came up, changed the tea to a pot, and added some snacks.
Prime Minister Yu greeted with a smile: "Zhang Shaoqing, try it, this is Xiuzhenlou's dim sum, and my wife is good for this." ”
Zhang Qian hurriedly picked up a piece of pastry, put it in his mouth, and praised it after a long time: "The taste is really delicious, Major General Lin, you can taste it too." ”
Lin Mo put down the teacup in his hand and said lightly: "Zhang Shaoqing is old, so he should eat less sweets." ”
Zhang Qian's old face was bitter, and the pastries in his mouth were not so sweet.
Lin Mo got up and saluted: "I heard that Prime Minister Yu's daughter woke up last night. ”
The smile on his face was gone, and he touched his beard and turned his eyes to the side before faintly: "Hmm".
Lin Mo continued: "Xiaguan and Zhang Shaoqing came here at this time just to ask Yu Qianjin about something. ”
The room fell silent for a while, Zhang Qian was still chewing pastries in his mouth, but he also stopped at this time and secretly looked at Prime Minister Yu's face.
Picked up the teacup on the table, used the teacup to open the two tender leaves, glanced at the man in the hall, took a sip of tea before frowning and asked: "Even three-year-old children in the capital know who the murderer is and who poisoned him, does this matter still need to be investigated?" Then he sneered again, put the teacup on the table, looked at Zhang Qianpi on the side and asked with a smile: "Could it be that Dali Temple has been kept in the dark because it has not arrested people, and I don't know who the murderer is?" ”
The muscles on Zhang Qian's cheeks twitched, and he glanced at the unhurried young man in the hall, and smiled with a smile on his face.
Lin Mo straightened up and looked at the people seated, and said with a straight face: "The emperor asked the ministers to investigate this matter, so naturally he has to find out." ”
Prime Minister Yu narrowed his eyes, touched his chin and looked at Lin Mo and asked, "Recently, there have been rumors in the capital, I heard that you and the girl in the Wei Mansion are not clear, can you investigate the case like this?" ”
Lin Mo lowered his head and chuckled, and when he raised his head, there was no smile on his face, and he sneered: "I didn't expect that Prime Minister Yu Cheng also has the temperament of listening to the wind and rain." ”
Prime Minister Yu slapped the table and made a "bang", the teacup on the table was knocked over, and the tea fell to the floor.
"You, you're guts!"
Zhang Qian hurriedly came out and said with a smile: "Prime Minister Yu, don't be angry, don't be angry, Major General Lin didn't mean that, Major General Lin is also here to investigate the case." ”
Lin Mo said respectfully: "Please also ask Prime Minister Yu to arrange for me to meet with Ling Qianjin." ”
Prime Minister Yu glared at Lin Mo for a long time, looked at the young man's face was not red and his heart was not beating, he smiled angrily, threw his sleeves and walked out: "Okay, I'll arrange for you to meet, I want to see what you can find." ”
For a moment, all that remained in the room was the sound of tea on the table and the sound of the stone slabs.
The gurgling stream slid past a branch, and Wei Yun sighed softly as she looked at the closed door of Kaiyuan Temple.
Yan Sen knocked on the door for a long time, and walked back helplessly: "Girl, there are people inside, but they don't open it." ”
Wei Yun glanced up at the gray sky, pulled his cloak and said lightly, "Turn it in." ”
