Chapter 495: Wangtian Tower's Secret
The Wangtianlou in the prime location is one of the famous restaurants in Kyoto, not to mention the large area, and the decoration is particularly luxurious, but the luxury is elegant and comfortable.
The box booked by Cheng Jinghu is the bamboo fragrance garden in the plum orchid, bamboo chrysanthemum, peach and lotus apricot on the first floor, on the side of the window, there is a small bamboo forest, and you can see it when you push the window, and now it is covered with a layer of snow, which is a pleasing landscape.
After sitting down, Cheng Jinghu personally poured bamboo tea for the two, and the smiling and well-trained little second sister served the dishes one after another, sometimes shrewd, sometimes stunned Wu Zhizai, the atmosphere was also harmonious, not cold, and from time to time there was a burst of hearty laughter.
To make all the exquisite dishes, Cheng Jinghu has already toasted two glasses of wine.
After a while, two men in flowing clothes and without suspicion of teasing came in, and bowed to the three of them.
Wu Zhi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Lord Cheng, is this a large dish you arranged?" ”
Cheng Jinghu glanced at Lin Daiyu, who had a faint expression, and said with a smile: "They are just serving the cloth vegetables, if Miss Wu has a heart, she has to work hard herself, and the man who looks at the sky tower is not so easy to eat." ”
Wu Zhi smiled, didn't say anything, and let one of the men sit beside him with a light fragrant breeze, and the other sat next to Lin Daiyu. Seeing that there was no one around Cheng Jinghu, he immediately made a fuss: "Master Cheng, I won't take you to play like this!" There are people around Daiyu who are serving, but there are no people around you, isn't it a stark contrast when it spreads? No matter how the people talk about it, if one of your officials in the court participates in a book, it will be enough for her to drink an old pot! ”
As soon as these words came out, Lin Daiyu also frowned, and stared at Cheng Jinghu, Cheng Jinghu hurriedly clenched his fists and said to forgive: "Miss Wu misunderstood, misunderstood!" It's really because Wangtianlou's business is too good and there are not enough manpower, so it was delayed for a while, and there is another one, who should arrive soon. The two of them are distinguished guests invited by Jinghu, so they naturally put them first. You have to be merciful, don't let Lord Lin misunderstand that Jinghu has ulterior motives! ”
Wu Zhi laughed, waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and get started, otherwise you will misunderstand to the end!" ”
Cheng Jinghu was helpless and looked at the little second sister: "Did you hear that?" Hurry up and rush! ”
The little second sister who was specially serving Zhuxiangyuan hurriedly retreated, and then, a low summons and urging came from outside the door, Wu Zhi listened, and squinted at Cheng Jinghu: "It's almost the same!" Let's just wait here, lest you deceive people! ”
Cheng Jinghu couldn't cry or laugh: "Miss Wu, you really should come to our criminal department, otherwise you will be too talented!" ”
"Come on," Wu Zhi shook his head, took a sip from his wine glass, "The officialdom is too complicated, you can't have fun, it's better to wander around!" ”
"Miss Wu Zhi lives a chic and nourishing life, and Jinghu is very envious, but Jinghu has nothing to do and doesn't know martial arts, so she can only do her best for the court." Cheng Jinghu sighed, and then took advantage of the situation, "Speaking of playing around, Jinghu remembered one thing, I heard that Miss Wu once said that she would go to the Blood Prison Palace to see what the Palace Master of the Blood Prison Palace looked like, I don't know if you can see it?" Is it a centenarian woman, or a young girl? ”
She looked curious, but Wu Zhi shook her head in her heart, this woman is really ......
"What does this girl want to see, but what else can't she see?" She snorted triumphantly, "Not only did I see it, but I also discovered a secret!" ”
"Oh?" Cheng Jinghu was even more interested, "Can you talk about it and listen to it, so that Jinghu can also open his eyes?" ”
She paused, and said with a smile: "Although I am suspected of inquiring about meritorious service, I really want to know." We who stay in the capital all day long, can only rely on the news to imagine the wonderful world outside, Miss Wu has traveled from south to north, and has seen a lot of knowledge, please give us advice and satisfy our curiosity! ”
As she spoke, she raised her glass and gestured to Wu Zhi, and then toasted to the bottom.
Wu Zhi waved his hand: "It's easy to say, anyway, Daiyu is not in the Criminal Department, so it doesn't matter if I tell you." But don't stop Miss Wu Wu and Miss Wu, it's too raw, just call me Wu Zhi or Ah Zhi! ”
Cheng Jinghu immediately said: "What Miss Wu said is, I also feel that it is a bit alienating to be called like this, since you can drink at the same table, you are already friends, and between friends, you should call her by her name." Ah Zhi don't call me Master Cheng anymore, just call me Jinghu! ”
"Not bad!" Wu Zhi snapped his fingers, "Since Jinghu is a friend, I, Wu Zhi, naturally have to treat it sincerely." Don't talk about the matter of the Blood Hell Palace, but as long as I know, if Jinghu asks, I, Wu Zhi, will definitely know everything! ”
"Achi is really bold and righteous!" Cheng Jinghu smiled, his eyes moving on Lin Daiyu and Wu Zhi's faces, "Jinghu was originally very envious of Lord Lin in his heart, but he didn't expect to be able to touch Lord Lin's light and socialize with Lord Lin's friends. ”
She poured a glass of wine and stood up with her hands in her hands: "Thank you, Lord Lin! Thank you for your generosity, you are truly a noble man of Silent Lake! ”
Lin Daiyu picked up the wine glass and said lightly: "It's your fate." After a pause, "Ah Zhi is angry, and if the other party is just using it, she knows about it, and the anger of the high-level Heavenly Xuanwu Venerable is not something that ordinary people can bear." ”
Cheng Jinghu said: "Lord Lin, rest assured, Jinghu has no intention of using Ah Zhi. The last time Achi helped interrogate the prisoners of the Blood Prison Palace, Jinghu heard a lot, and she always wanted to know her, but she didn't have a chance. Today, I was fortunate to invite Lord Lin, and Jinghu was able to be contaminated with luxury and have a friend outside the officialdom! Jinghu is the first to do it, and Lord Lin is free! ”
She drank it all in one gulp, and poured the cup into the bottom of the glass, allowing the two of them to see the bottom of the glass where the wine had been drunk.
Lin Daiyu no longer took care of it, and stood up very face-saving and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, Cheng Jinghu smiled: "Thank you, Lord Lin!" ”
"You have so many things to do when you drink wine, which makes this girl feel uncomfortable like lice!" Wu Zhi sighed, and then saw someone refill Lin Daiyu's wine in time, and shouted like a furious man, "Why hasn't your little man who poured wine from cloth vegetables come yet?" If you don't come again, we'll go! ”
Cheng Jinghu shook his head and smiled, and just as he was about to explain, he heard the second sister knock on the door, and after permission, a young man with an ordinary appearance who was not as beautiful as the first two came in.
After he blessed his body and saluted with his name, he sat down beside Cheng Jinghu and poured wine for her.
Cheng Jinghu said: "I just mentioned the Blood Prison Palace, Ah Zhi quickly told me what the Palace Master of the Blood Prison Palace looked like. ”
Wu Zhi looked at the void with straight eyes and recalled: "That mother-in-law was a hundred-year-old woman at first glance, and there were two skeletal hands with no flesh and blood, all finger bones. ”
Cheng Jinghu's eyes widened: "Isn't it?" Is that still a man's hand? ”
"Later, I found out that it was the state she was in when she was practicing, and it couldn't last long." Wu Zhi glanced at her sideways, and then went straight back to the void, "There is a special practice pool for palace masters in the Blood Prison Palace, and it is a blood pool. ”
Blood pools? What blood? Is it human blood? When Cheng Jinghu was about to speak out in surprise, she thought of her stunned gaze just now, so she forcibly held back the words that were about to come out.
The three men who served the wine were even quieter, and they didn't even take the opportunity to listen carefully, let alone show curiosity and ask questions.
Although Wu Zhi knew that their task was actually to listen to all kinds of news and gather the master behind the restaurant, he was still stunned and continued to shake the material: "The blood pool is red and gorgeous, and there are all kinds of insects floating on it, and there is a pungent fishy smell. However, the blood was not all human blood, but also the blood of various animals, as well as colored herbs. The blood of that person is not the blood of killing innocent people and letting them into the pool, but the blood of the provocateur who came to the door or the losing side in the battle between the rivers and lakes. The mother-in-law often soaked in the pool to practice, after soaking, the flesh and blood on the palm of her hand was gone, she often summoned her henchmen at this time, deliberately let them see that they were afraid, and honestly took care of all kinds of matters in the Blood Prison Palace for her, but she herself shrunk in the underground palace to eat, sleep, eat, and do nothing! ”
She stopped here, Cheng Jinghu waited for a long time, didn't wait for the next step, and finally couldn't help asking: "Then, did Azhi fight with her?" ”
When Wu Zhi heard this, he straightened his gaze sideways again, and asked in a somewhat inexplicable tone: "I have no grievances with her, what are you doing fighting?" ”
Cheng Jinghu was choked for a moment, but quickly adjusted: "She sent someone to infiltrate the official's mansion and killed someone~~"
Wu Zhizhi stared at the small and delicate woman in a daze, and interrupted: "She didn't kill Daiyu, what does it matter to me?" Dali Temple came forward to kill officials, and your criminal department was responsible for killing, I am a nomad in the rivers and lakes, how can I manage the affairs of the court? Besides, I also robbed her son to be her husband and killed her, and the husband will definitely not let me touch him! ”
"What? You," Cheng Jinghu was so shocked that she almost stood up, "You robbed her son?" ”
"Ahh What's wrong? Wu Zhi looked natural, "I saw that he was pleasing to the eye, and I liked him very much, so I slept with him." ”
"This, this ......" Cheng Jinghu didn't know what to say.
Lin Daiyu looked at her depressedly: "Why haven't I heard you talk about this?" ”
"It's not too late yet!" Wu Zhi spread his hands, "Besides, I'm just sleeping with someone I like, what is there to say?" ”
"But that's the person from the Blood Prison Palace, the son of the Palace Master of the Blood Prison Palace, you want him, and you don't do it with his mother......" Lin Daiyu looked anxious, "The imperial court has not taken the initiative to attack now, but once you do it, you will also be implicated!" Do you know the seriousness of this? ”
Wu Zhi looked back at her: "No, now the Blood Hell Palace is mine, and the court doesn't need to send troops to strangle it!" ”
"What......" Lin Daiyu and Cheng Jinghu almost fell to the ground, "Blood Hell Palace, yes, it's yours?" ”
"yes, isn't that weird? That mother-in-law has no daughter, just an only son, my son was slept with by me, and the Blood Prison Palace was not passed on to me, who did she pass it on? ”
"You, you ......" The two were almost speechless, but they looked at each other, "This ......"
After relieving his breath, Lin Daiyu said solemnly: "Is it really what she passed on to you?" She took the initiative to pass it on to you? ”
Cheng Jinghu also stared at her and said, "Didn't use any means? ”
Wu Zhi looked at the posture of the two and scratched his head: "Okay, okay, her son is in love with me, so she grabbed me ......"
The two were speechless, and Cheng Jinghu said, "It shouldn't be so easy to grab, right?" ”
Wu Zhi had no choice but to nod: "Originally, I didn't plan to fight, but in the end there was a fight, she ...... She ......"
"What's wrong with her?" Lin Daiyu said, "Killed by you?" ”
"How could it! She's my husband's mother! Wu Zhi shouted loudly, and then suddenly lowered his voice, "It's just that she abolished her martial arts and robbed her token!" ”
"......" Lin Daiyu and Cheng Jinghu looked at each other again, looking at each other, they really didn't know what to say.
After being silent for a while, Lin Daiyu spoke: "It seems that this matter must be reported to the emperor as soon as possible!" ”
Cheng Jinghu nodded in agreement: "Yes." She looked at Wu Zhi, "So, the Blood Hell Palace is now under Ah Zhi's orders?" ”
Wu Zhi said proudly: "Of course! I have ordered the withdrawal of all undercover personnel, and have broken off cooperation with the Western True Kingdom. ”
She glanced at the two of them: "I know that in your eyes, sometimes I am a little stupid, but I am not really stupid, since I have taken over the Blood Prison Palace, how can I continue to fight against the emperor and the court?" I'm going to change the name of the Blood Prison Palace, but I haven't figured out what to call it yet. ”
Who dares to say you're stupid? The one who says you're stupid is really stupid!
Cheng Jinghu thought so in his heart, and Lin Daiyu thought of her true identity, if she didn't know that she was Chu Han, she could be deceived into thinking that she was another person.
This is the deeper benefit of Baimei's phantom face, if you change your appearance, your personality, words and deeds will also change.
After that, the two actually left Wu Zhi behind and discussed what to do next.
After this matter was discussed, Cheng Jinghu asked about the ghost village case again, but this time she said it clearly and truthfully, that is, she hoped to listen to Wu Zhi's narration and opinions more, so as to get more clues and solve a big case.
After the three of them finished chatting and eating, the guests in the restaurant had already left, and they were the last ones.
After saying goodbye, Wu Zhi unfolded the peep mirror method, found a place where no one was and escaped into the soil, and escaped directly to Su Xinzhai, hugging Liuhuo for a night.
