Chapter 43: I've Seen You

Fortunately, he was not in serious trouble, but he was also a blessing in disguise, so that most of his illness was cured.

Later, news came out in the palace that three days later, the son of the Fang family was beheaded at the execution ground.

Hua Weiyan was praised by the emperor for this matter, and he even held a banquet in the county guard mansion in Jiangzhou, inviting Xu Jiusi and a group of friends to drink, and we were in the mansion...... It's still as cold as ever.

These are just information from the spies of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and in fact, what came to his mouth was that Yijun was a clean and low-key person, and his style was in stark contrast to his father-in-law's insatiable greed.

Everyone said that Liu Cheng found a good son-in-law for himself, if it weren't for the fact that the flower was an inkstone, he was afraid that three generations of his Liu family would be spurned.

But the more they were like that, the more I felt that the whole thing wasn't that simple.

Chu Yu was recuperating, and the Prime Minister's Mansion was fine, so I took advantage of these two days of leisure to go to the Drunken Immortal Building.

Although a few rioters had stayed here a few days earlier, the business of the Drunken Immortal Mansion was not affected, and the entire two-story building was full of drinkers when I arrived.

Since there was no separate place, the shopkeeper asked me to share a table with a few idle people at the window on the second floor.

At the small boxy table, there sat three men dressed as literati, and their every move was not as vulgar as other drinkers, but it was not like a scholar.

Seeing me sit down, one of them held up his glass and smiled at me: "The girl doesn't have to be formal, if you don't dislike it, you can drink with us." ”

I smiled and thanked me.

With the lesson of last time, I didn't dare to drink more again, so I only took small sips. In the spacious restaurant, there are often people discussing the major events that have taken place in Beijing in the past few days, but they are of little use to me.

However, the shopkeeper took advantage of someone to chat happily, and said: "A few guest officers don't know, the son of the Fang family rarely comes to our drunken immortal building, but that Xu Gongzi often brings a few friends and girls here, when Xu Gongzi took Fang Gongzi into the door, Fang Gongzi kept saying that he was not good at drinking, but he couldn't stand the persuasion of several sons to drink...... In my opinion, it's drunk and promiscuous......"

"Huh!"

As soon as the shopkeeper finished speaking, the white-clothed gentleman sitting opposite me couldn't help but chuckle: "There is no drunken disorder in this world, it's just that he drank some wine and strengthened his courage." ”

"That's right," the man in Tsing Yi who sat next to him echoed casually, "As far as I heard, this big Sinong and Zhongshu Ling have always been at odds, and their heirs never interact with each other in private, a few people think about it, why did the son of this great Sinong suddenly invite the son of the Fang family to come to this drunken immortal building, and just that night the son of the Fang family had an accident?" ”

A few people looked at each other, gossiping like others, and it was rare to hear some useful information, and I also held the wine cup and listened to them.

"Brother Li is very right, as soon as the son of this Fang family has an accident, Lord Zhongshu Ling will also be imprisoned, I see, this matter is not so simple."

"It's very strange, but this matter in the court has nothing to do with us who only know how to fiddle with the rhythm of the market."

"Quite right, drink and drink." A few people seemed to be chatting, but every sentence was fine, and every sentence was to the point.

It's just that I didn't take into account the other layer at that time, how did they know what the relationship between Dasi Nong and Zhongshu Ling was.

When I left the restaurant, I asked the store for a roast chicken to take away, and then I went straight to the secluded courtyard.

It was the beggars who were there that day who gave me a hint, it is uninhabited all year round, but there are many homeless beggars in Jiangzhou City. If I were them, I would have chosen it as my habitat.

A few days later, even during the day, it was still deserted, and I walked for a long time on the slippery mud when I saw a few pairs of dark eyes peering out of a house.

They closed the door and stared at what I was holding through the old window, and in the dim light I could see the longing and fear in their eyes.

Walking over calmly, I handed over the things in my hand through the window, and said lightly: "Take it and eat it." ”

The eyes of several beggars lit up, but their trembling hands did not dare to stretch out, presumably because they were usually afraid of being bullied, and even afraid to see a powerless girl like me.

After pondering for a moment, I hung the roast chicken in front of the window and turned to leave.

I thought that since they lived here, they might see something that night, but seeing this frightened look at the living people made me wonder where to speak.

Thinking about this, I feel a little annoyed that I shouldn't have pinned my hopes on them.

was about to leave, but a hoarse voice suddenly came from behind him: "Girl." ”

When I heard this, I saw a beggar in tattered clothes staring at me tremblingly, his cloudy eyes full of panic and fear.
