Chapter 11: The Flower Thief
Zhao Qi took a sip of tea and glanced at Wang Dashi dissatisfied-
You don't have the face to call us over and joke?
Yuejian took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Lord Wang has something to say. ”
She has seen a lot, and every official also makes a tone like this when he sees the emperor, and then spits out the words in his heart.
Wang Dashi was first shocked by Zhao Qi's eyes, and then listened to Yuejian's words, and immediately said: "Don't hide it from the three adults, last night the lower officials originally set up a trick, and ordered the yamen girl to catch the bait quickly, trying to capture the flower thief, which Cheng wants to ......"
Speaking of this, Wang Dashi was very sad: "The flower thief is so cunning, he didn't hook up, but he folded the female catcher in the yamen into it!" ”
Tang Tang took a bite of the apple and his eyes widened: "No, that flower thief is so powerful." ”
Wang Dashi said bitterly: "No, the lower officials really have no choice, but fortunately, God treats the lower officials well, and the three adults happened to pass by Lushui Mansion......"
Wang Dashi stood up and bowed to Zhao Qi and them again: "Xiaguan is desperate, so he can only come to the general and Lord Siqing with a cheeky face, Lord Wanqiu looks at the face of the people of Li in Lushui Mansion, and gives Xiaguan an idea, how to catch the flower thief is serious." ”
Shen Lingjun also knew that a magistrate like him had the most headache when he encountered this kind of case, and if the flower thief had a high level of kung fu, he was really helpless.
The problem is, Shen Lingjun touched his nose: "We will delay for two days this time, and we will leave soon." ”
Wang Dashi had an expression on his face that was about to cry: "The lower official heard that Lord Siqing is like a god in judging the case, please be sure to help the lower official with this, and thank the lord for the people of Lushui Mansion." ”
"Flower thief, it's fun." Tang Tang was bored, and said to Shen Lingjun: "It's better for you to help him." ”
When Wang Dashi heard this, he glanced at Tang Tang very gratefully.
Shen Lingjun was still hesitating, if it was delayed, wouldn't her plan have to change.
On that side, Zhao Qi slapped the table: "It's decided." ”
Wang Dashi hurriedly thanked him and was grateful.
Shen Lingjun glanced at Zhao Qi faintly, and said in his heart: You are diligent in your promise.
Su Musha thought that Shen Lingjun was worried that he would not be able to go to Nanzhao on time, so he patted the back of her hand and said in a low voice: "It shouldn't take long." ”
Shen Lingjun thought about it, he was just a flower thief, as long as he dared to commit another crime, whoever among them would take it directly.
The question is, Shen Lingjun knocked on the table with his fingers and asked everyone: "What if he doesn't come out to commit the crime?" ”
Zhao Qi hated this kind of sneaky behavior the most, especially the one who harmed the women of good families, and he was emasculated as a tribute after being caught.
Ye Qingzhi took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Then lure him out again." ”
Shen Lingjun looked at her: "After what happened last night, he should know that the government is arresting him, and he will come out?" ”
Zhao Qi analyzed: "Since this kind of person dares to commit crimes again and again, he is either not afraid of the government, or he has too much self-confidence. ”
Ye Qingzhi nodded: "He regards the government as an imaginary enemy, and even rejoices that he succeeds in his scheme, so I'm sure he will commit crimes." ”
Yuejian sounded very reasonable, and asked Wang Dashi: "How did you get off last night?" ”
Wang Dashi 1510 said: "After ordering the female catcher to dress up as a Lisu girl, he deliberately wandered around in a crowded place outside, because the lower official heard that this flower thief was different from other petty thieves, so he liked to take advantage of the crowd. Therefore, the lower officials installed a lot of officials among the people, all of whom wore Lisu costumes, which were the same as ordinary people. But Xia Guan never expected that the female catcher would suddenly disappear in front of everyone's eyes! ”
Shen Lingjun touched his chin: "Big change? ”
Wang Dashi sighed, his errand can be regarded as a mess, and he still doesn't know how to explain it to his family.
Ye Qingzhi asked: "Are there any large-scale programs today?" ”
Wang Dashi thought for a moment and looked up: "Yes, there is a bamboo raft competition in the afternoon." ”
Shen Lingjun rubbed his forehead: "In the water?" "She refused to participate!
Wang Dashi left the post house with a worried face, pinning all his hopes on Zhao Qi and Shen Lingjun, this case was not solved, he directly took off the black gauze hat on his head.
Shen Lingjun stood up and walked around to eat, and asked everyone, "Who will be the bait later?" ”
Everyone looked at each other: "Then I must choose one of your girls' families." ”
Tang Tang bit the remaining apple core and threw it out to feed the cat: "Whoever said it, a man can also do it." ”
Everyone suddenly remembered that the last time Feng Zheng dressed as a woman, he still looked like a big beauty, and looked at it together.
Feng Zheng shrank behind Li Mengbai: "I won't do it." ”
Ye Qingzhi shook her head: "It's not okay to seal up, according to Lord Wang, there have been six cases last night, but none of the women who were arrested have ever returned......"
Everyone knew that they were either killed or imprisoned.
"That's right, if the flower thief finds a man disguised as a woman, he will kill him directly." Shen Lingjun nodded.
"Just find someone who knows kung fu." Tang Tang really wanted to show her makeup skills again, and encouraged: "Come when the play comes." ”
"No, I'm still young." During the play, he grabbed Luo Cheng's back: "You find the best looking one." ”
Tang Tang twisted his fingertips around with the flute, and his eyes fell on Su Musha.
Shen Lingjun dodged to block her sight: "Don't think about it!" ”
Su Musha was very satisfied with Shen Lingjun's approach of protecting the inside, and there was a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Tang Tang crossed his waist with one hand and pointed at Shen Lingjun: "Then you come." ”
Shen Lingjun stretched out his hand to rub his cheeks, there was no problem, but he had to row a bamboo raft......
Ye Qingzhi stood up, smiled at the Lisu women's costumes that Tang Tang and Yuejian thought were funny and hadn't changed yet, and said, "The flower thieves specifically targeted the Lisu girls. ”
Zhao Qi slapped the table again: "Then it's the two of you." "As long as it's not Ye Qingzhi, anyone can.
Shen Lingjun agreed with Zhao Qi's idea this time: "Yes, you have been swaggering outside for a day yesterday, maybe the flower thief has already taken care of it, just right, you don't need to hook it." ”
Tang Tang and Yuejian glanced at each other and looked at her with suspicious eyes, isn't that so?
Shen Lingjun nodded very seriously: "Believe me." ”
Tang Tang thought it was funny, and after Yuejian left the palace, he felt that everything was novel, so the two of them didn't object much, anyway, the two of them worked hard, and they didn't have much ability to measure the flower thief.
However, Shen Lingjun still said to the two: "Flower thieves can commit crimes one after another in the court, it should not be underestimated, you should be careful then." ”
Ye Qingzhi went back to the room and prepared some medicinal powder for the two of them to take on their bodies in case of an emergency.
After discussing like this, everyone decided to go out to eat, and let Tang Tang and Yuejian go outside. They all believed that with the appearance of the two of them, if the flower thief saw it, he would definitely take the bait.
When she went out, Jia Dai ran over and insisted on going with her.
Zhao Qi asked them to take a step first, and then sat on the chair next to them, with a posture that if you want to go, Lao Tzu will not go.
Jia Dai was very unhappy, and stomped her feet angrily: "Zhao Qi, why can't you get along with me in everything!" ”
Zhao Qi's eyelids went down, and he ignored her. He can still reply to her now, completely for the sake of the emperor and Nanzhao's face, otherwise with his violent temper, Jia Dai can still stand and talk?
Jia Dai is also arrogant, as long as she wants in this world, she has to do everything possible to get it, but she planted it in front of Zhao Qi, and what she didn't expect was that she killed Ye Qingzhi halfway.
Jia Dai sat down in front of Zhao Qi: "Zhao Qi, why don't you believe me, it was Ye Qingzhi who told me personally, she gave you a trick to control you." ”
Zhao Qi lazily plucked his ears, opened his upper eyelids, and said lukewarmly: "Lao Tzu is happy to let her control." ”
Jia Dai's angry lips were blue: "Zhao Qi, you are crazy." ”
Zhao Qi's eyes swept to Jia Dai's face, and his voice was tough with a hint of threat: "Jia Dai, you stay in the post house and be a good princess of Nanzhao, otherwise you will ......"
Jia Dai raised her chin and said unconvincedly: "Otherwise, what?" ”
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and the person who came was dressed in the costume of the Nanzhao nobles, slightly fat, and generous, and smiled at everyone: "General Zhao, princess." ”
Zhao Qi turned around and nodded politely: "Third prince." ”
The surname of the contemporary Nanzhao royal family is Meng Pi Luo Ge, and the full name of these three princes is Meng Pi Luo Ge Luo Sheng, which is the object of Jia Dai and his relatives.
Luo Sheng's subtle gaze glanced at Jia Dai, and said with some embarrassment: "Lushui Mansion is the same as Nanzhao, the temperature is normal all year round, and the flowers bloom very well, I want to invite the princess to enjoy the flowers." ”
In fact, these three princes are honest people, although Emperor Nanzhao has set up two side concubines for him, but he doesn't know much about what the wind and snow, it was the prince who reminded him that he should cultivate a relationship with the princess of the Tang Dynasty. He saw that the princess of the Tang Dynasty was more different from the Nanzhao girl than Hua Jiao, and it was love at first sight, and he felt that his imperial brother's proposal was very good.
Zhao Qi listened and said happily: "Since this is the case, I will not disturb the princess and the third prince to enjoy the flowers, and say goodbye." ”
Jia Dai was angry: "You ......" is not easy to attack because of outsiders.
The third prince of Nanzhao couldn't figure it out, and said very enthusiastically: "Princess, I heard that there is a flower valley in the west of the city, why don't we ......."
Jia Dai glanced at him arrogantly, and disdained this future husband: "This princess is tired and needs to rest." ”
"Uh......" Luo Sheng was stunned, watching Jia Dai's back disappear around the corner.
Although he was a little frustrated, Luo Sheng quickly adjusted himself, he felt that the Tang princess was really different from other women, and he was even more determined to make persistent efforts.
There are no big restaurants in Lushui Mansion, and you can also stay overnight in a row of small restaurants, all of which are wooden loft buildings. And because Lushui Mansion is warm in spring all year round, the women of the Lisu nationality like to walk barefoot at home.
Shen Lingjun and the others chose a restaurant that looked more magnificent, Rao was like this, and a large group of people still seemed a little crowded in the box.
The shopkeeper also specially moved a few chairs from the outside to sit in, after all, they don't usually have too many outsiders here.
