This kind of person is simply unreasonable, Qin Qiu was very speechless to Zhuang Rou, but he didn't bother to advise her anymore, he didn't want to be a good person, he sympathized with those guys who were automatically sent to the door, but if he got into trouble, he would be busy again.

If he could, he wished that the journey would be smooth and that there would not be half a dead man looking for trouble.

It's a pity that since he followed Zhuang Rou all the way, he either killed the official mansion, or was locked in the dungeon without food and drink, and now he has provoked the people of the Nangong family, so he has not stopped.

The only good thing is that the people in Lingge haven't appeared for a month, and I don't know if I'm afraid of Zhuang Rou or can't find myself.

Qin Qiu didn't think that Ling Ge would not be able to find his whereabouts, and the suspicious place was probably because of Zhuang Rou. Bacheng thinks that she is too tricky, and she has to find a few more powerful people to make a move, maybe the pavilion master of Lingge, who has never been seen before, will want to come out and clean her up in person.

At that time, killing yourself by the way is not a matter at all.

But there is also a possibility, that is, killing Zhuang Rou now is easy to attract the attention of the imperial court to Lingge, so he temporarily gave up assassinating her, and even himself was thrown aside.

At that time, the uncle who paid for Zhuang Rou's death had already been beheaded, and there were few people who knew that this transaction was not successful, and there were few now, which would not affect Lingge's reputation.

The more Qin Qiu thought about it, the more he felt that he was thinking too much, so he stopped thinking about it.

When he entered the city, he called a boy who was waiting at the gate of the city, waiting to guide people and run errands, and asked him to lead the way to the location of the deed given by Nangong Xianyu.

"Qushuang Lane? This place is known to the little people that it is a good place to take a break from the hustle and bustle. The kid who led the way walked in front of the carriage and smiled.

Zhuang Rou also wanted to see the scenery of this Laixiang City, so she sat at the entrance of the carriage and looked at the lanterns and trees on the side of the road.

There are too many trees planted in Laixiang City, and there are tall and dense trees everywhere, and you can see the pink and white flowers all over the trees under the light of the lanterns. The clumps were huddled on the trees, and even the leaves were almost invisible.

Although I know that Zhangzhou is also warm in winter, and there are green mountains and green waters everywhere along the way, I have never seen this kind of tree full of flowers, and the whole city is full of trees.

She said with some confusion: "What kind of tree is this, the flowers are so dense, it looks a little familiar but I don't think it's right." ”

"Noble, this is Winter Sakura. It is said that more than 50 years ago, a traveling monk came to Laixiang City, brought a thick sapling, said that the name of this place is Laixiang, but there is no aroma, and this tree was given to the government. The boy explained as he walked up at the tree on the side of the road.

"After the tree is planted, the seeds are collected and the seeds are planted, and this is what it ends. After a while, we will pass by the incense temple, and the sapling brought by the high monk will be planted there, and the nobles can take a look. ”

Zhuang Rou nodded, and saw a gust of evening wind blowing, the branches swaying, and the petals falling with the wind like rain, and she suddenly understood why the Qianmei meeting was held here.

In this situation, if there are men and women who have the same heart, I am afraid that they will be dizzy for a while, and they will set a lifelong event.

From this point of view, there should be a lot of matchmakers in Laixiang City.

Seeing that most of the men and women on the road are handsome, there are not many older people, and the posture is also to protect the juniors, and there is an atmosphere of love and love in the air, which makes people feel a little crooked.

The only occasion Zhuang Rou can see men and women getting together and hooking up with each other in the capital is the various tea parties and flower viewing banquets held by the magnates in the backyard during the Qingming Festival, but there are not so many people.

She asked, "Is there always so many people in the Qianmei Society of Laixiang City?" ”

"Nobles, there are more people coming this year than in previous years, mainly because it is rumored that the emperor wants to accept women from the rivers and lakes into the palace as concubines, so those who are not married have arranged their children out, counting on the fact that they will settle their relatives in this Qianmei meeting." The kid laughed.

"What?" Zhuang Rou was stunned for a moment, and looked at him inexplicably, "Where did this come from, the emperor wants to let the women of the rivers and lakes enter the palace?" ”

The kid nodded, "Yes, Laixiang City has spread all over the city, and it is also said that as long as you are fifteen years old and unmarried, you will be selected to enter the palace." When the time comes, choose again, and those who are selected will enter the palace as concubines, and those who are not selected will be sent home. ”

"This can't be, it must be a rumor from someone with ulterior motives!" Zhuang Rou immediately said.

The emperor's choice of concubines is not to find a group of beauties randomly, he will choose whoever he likes, who will be the queen, and who will be the concubine must be well known. Except for those who are so fond of ignoring the court, all the concubines have a relationship with their maiden family.

If the mother's family is powerful or wants to be important, they will give the women of their family who enter the palace to a high position. On the contrary, if you commit any crime, you may implicate the daughter of the harem and lose her head.

On the other hand, these ministers' families send their daughters to the palace, and after the other party is favored or has a prince, they can also be reused, after all, they are the royal family at that time.

The Jianghu sect was not tolerated by the imperial court, and there was no need to recruit Jianghu women into the palace to give grace, it was fun to be able to dance the sword, but it was not a reassuring pillow person to be able to kill.

No matter how reckless the emperor is, he will not openly make any women's drafts, at most, he has a crush on someone's woman, and he does everything possible to get the other party's favor.

If he really gets dizzy like this, the old ministers in the court will also dispel his thoughts.

But what is the reason for such panicked rumors in the rivers and lakes?

Zhuang Rou frowned slightly, and asked the kid, "Little brother, do you know what they say, is there any basis?" The imperial court has never done such a thing, don't you think it's strange? ”

"The villain doesn't know, but it should be related to the commander of the Martial Arts Alliance. Since the imperial court wants to choose a martial arts alliance leader, it is normal to marry a few beauties into the palace. The boy smiled, he was in this city every day, and he had heard a lot of gossip.

What the hell is the leader of the martial arts alliance, and how did he have anything to do with the imperial court?

Zhuang Rou took out a piece of silver and threw it to him, "Such a rare thing, little brother please tell me about it in detail." ”

The kid took the silver and immediately put it in his arms, this errand is only five cents, which can be regarded as a big profit.

Then he opened his mouth with a smile, "Nobleman, don't you know, this has to start with the beautiful and frosty eunuch Shui Feng Jingshui......

Listening to him talking, Zhuang Rou's eyes widened in surprise, so many things had happened in the past ten days.

Feng Jingshui actually took the Mu clan and them out to issue an alliance leader's order, and those who didn't go would be destroyed, and it was said that three sects had been destroyed.

What kind of madness did the imperial court have, why did it suddenly attack the rivers and lakes?

Thinking that Feng Jingshui and the group of crazy people from the Mu family came out to do errands together, Zhuang Rou grinned and trembled, whoever met him was unlucky!

She only thought in her heart, but did not say it, and listened carefully to what the boy had said.

What this person said is called a painting of voices, but the rumors of the rivers and lakes can also be said to be very exciting, especially when it comes to the scene where Feng Jingshui and their slaughter of the sect were heard from nowhere, and his eyebrows danced.

praised Feng Jingshui in his mouth as incomparably powerful, which made people listen to it and make up a very beautiful and cold master, and killed people invisibly with a smile.

Looking at his envious look, it seemed that he was about to go from the palace to become a eunuch, and followed Feng Jingshui to pour tea and water.

He spoke so wonderfully that he was like a storyteller, and Zhuang Rou didn't have time to look at the scenery of the city until the carriage stopped, and he realized that he had finished.

The kid stopped, saluted respectfully, and said, "Noble, this is Qushuang Lane." ”

Zhuang Rou looked up and found that the carriage was parked in front of a house without a plaque, with four colored lights hanging at the door, the vermilion gate was closed, and there were two stone lions of medium size at the door.

"Nobleman, although Qushuang Lane is not narrow, it is a back alley. Except for the back doors of the house on both sides, only the door of this house is open to this side. The boy explained why he stopped here, drew a picture on his deed, and looked at this place.

Zhuang Rou waved her hand, "Okay, you can go." ”

The boy thanked him and left with the silver in his hand.

"This place is really good, the Nangong family is very good at picking houses." Zhuang Rou got out of the car, looked around, and couldn't help but smile.

This alley is not long, and can accommodate two carriages passing side by side, so it should not be the back door of the surrounding houses, but except for this house, the other houses only have the back door.

And the surrounding houses are very noisy, standing on the road can also hear the noise inside, not surprisingly, the surrounding is not a restaurant green building, or a casino tea house and other places.

Maybe this road was originally open to the gate, but because the Nangong family bought a house here, everyone didn't want to provoke them, so they all changed the door.

This is really quiet, there are only a few of them in the alley, and both sides of the alley are very lively, but here it seems to be blocked by something, and there is no half of them.

Qin Qiu was not a subordinate, although he also got out of the carriage, he didn't call the door, just stood at the door and looked around.

Zhuang Rou walked up and tapped the door a few times.

Squeak......

The door actually opened a crack in response, and it was clearly said that there were twenty subordinates, but there was not even a single gatekeeper, could it be that they all ran away?

At this time, a gust of wind blew, and Zhuang Rou smelled blood.

She paused, and peered through the crack in the open door at the silent house within. The scenery inside the door is blocked by the shadow wall, and you can only see the bright light behind the shadow wall, and there will inevitably be a lot of colorful lights hanging in the houses during the Lantern Festival.

After looking at it speechlessly for a moment, Zhuang Rou tilted her head to look at Qin Qiu, who also smelled the smell of blood, "Go in after reporting to the official, or go in first?" If you go in, you'll break the scene, but I'm afraid that the murderer is still inside, and if you don't go in, you'll let people run away. ”

"I'll go up to the wall and take a look, wait." Qin Qiu flattened his mouth in annoyance, and went to the top of the gate, no assassin killer would turn inside from the main gate, he would choose the side, so he would not step on the footprints of other people.

Zhuang Rou returned to the carriage and sat in the position of the carriage quietly waiting for Qin Qiu to come back, thinking that he had just gotten the deed, if this matter was aimed at him, it could only be someone from the Nangong family.

But I haven't heard of the people who killed themselves and gave others a horse.

If the deed has not changed hands yet, it means that others want to make the Nangong family look bad, why did they let themselves run into this matter?

Just thinking about it, Qin Qiu rolled down from the wall and shook his head at her, "Everyone is hard, maybe they were killed last night." ”

Zhuang Rou sighed, "Then report to the official." ”
