Chapter 44: Secret Agent
The dark alley is long, only a little dappled moonlight shines on the blue brick wall, and the occasional wind blows, whimpering, very terrifying.
However, An Sheng, who was thinking about things, didn't notice this, and just pulled Qinghui and walked forward.
Qinghui has always been afraid of this environment, and she didn't even dare to raise her head more, so she bowed down and followed An Sheng all the way.
Therefore, neither the master nor the servant noticed that two black shadows flashed at the entrance of the dark alley they entered.
Not right either.
Even An Sheng and Qinghui were all paying attention to their surroundings at this time, and it was difficult to notice the movement behind them.
Because, the shadow flickered too fast.
If you don't look closely, most people will think that it is a gust of wind.
This dark alley is adjacent to the Chunfeng Pavilion, and the water apricot that Liang Wudao's little guy said is the girl here.
Chunfeng Pavilion is slightly different from the Qinlou Chu Pavilion around here, and there are mostly courtesans and Qing people in it.
Therefore, in the generation of Xishi, it is quite prestigious.
Many children of official families even became important members of the court, and after leaving their posts, they like to come here to relax and relax.
After all, they are not swaggering in the leather and meat business, so even if they are known to be here, they will only say some romantic words, and they will not lose their reputation.
However, there are also people who come here, neither to listen to the music, nor to see the girl play the harp.
For the sake of some unknown transactions.
The back garden of Chunfeng Pavilion is a small high-ceilinged building, and in these buildings, they are all those who have high status, good appearance, and outstanding talents.
The girls here only keep one guest in the building every three days, and they all have to be regular customers.
This is the rule of the Spring Breeze Pavilion.
It seems to be unkind, but no one has dared to break it.
Everyone is speculating about the real owner behind the Spring Breeze Pavilion, but after so many years, nothing has been found.
Because of this, the Spring Breeze Pavilion is more mysterious and high-level.
Tonight, in the small building in the back garden of Chunfeng Pavilion, a very special guest came.
The guest did not go to the front hall, but directly sat in a sedan chair to the gate of the back garden, and was personally received by the old bustard of the Chunfeng Pavilion.
The man who came was a young man, and although he could not see his face clearly, he could tell that his figure was quite majestic.
He was wearing a royal blue satin embroidered robe, only a Pisces pendant was tied around his waist, and there were no other redundant ornaments.
But if you look closely, he is wearing a pair of official boots with silk and gold thread patterns under his feet, and he is majestic and full of momentum when he walks.
Lu Zheng took Lu Wen to lie on the wall outside the Chunfeng Pavilion all night, and finally waited for the person to wait.
This pair of boots, Lu Zheng recognized, was the pair worn by Xiao Junren, the king of Rui, in his early dynasty.
Since the clothes and accessories have been changed, why don't you know how to change a pair of boots.
Lu Zheng shook his head and continued to stare at the people below.
I saw King Rui go up to a small building in the middle, and soon after, the old bustard withdrew.
Lu Zheng's eyes were amazing, and when the old bustard left, he saw that in addition to King Rui, there was another young man in the small building.
Lu Zheng patted Lu Wen and motioned for him to come with him.
Lu Wen shook his head, and in an instant, he saw the two of them leaping forward, and then quickly disappeared into the wall.
When I looked at it again, the person had already landed on the roof of the small building that King Rui had just entered.
After Lu Zheng and Lu Wen lay down, they gently moved a small piece of tile, and then looked down along the gap in the tile.
......
At night, the West Market is very lively, and many shops are still doing business without closing.
However, the Hu family's cake shop has always been closed at night, everyone knows it, and they are used to it, so no one will knock on the closed door of the Hu family.
But tonight, someone knocked on the door of the Hu family's shop.
However, because the sky was dark, there was no light in front of the Hu family's store, so everyone did not notice the movement at this end.
Soon, the doors opened.
Scarface's tower-like body leaned out, glanced up and down at An Sheng and Qinghui, and then let the two in.
As soon as the two entered, Hu Da immediately looked left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he closed the door of the store again.
There was an oil lamp lit inside the shop, and the light was as bright as a bean, and it was almost blown out with the fresh breeze brought in by Hu Da's closing door.
However, there is no such thing as a no.
The faint flame flickered a few times, and then stood tenaciously again.
Hu Da turned around, and before he could speak, the door of the back hall was pushed open.
A woman with a high nose and deep eyes and long wavy hair walked in with a lamp.
She didn't talk to An Sheng and Qinghui, but walked directly to Hu Da's side and asked with her eyes.
An Sheng knew that she was asking Hu Da, is it these two people?
Hu Dachong nodded, and then looked at An Sheng with a cold gaze, "Can you cure my daughter?" ”
His voice is not high, but it always gives people a sense of solemnity.
Qinghui couldn't help but feel stunned when she heard this.
An Sheng patted Qinghui gently, then nodded to Hu Da, and calmly replied, "Yes." ”
Just one word, that's enough.
Hu Da and his daughter don't know how many doctors they have seen, and they have heard a lot of professional terms that doctors have been circling around, but there is no such word, and it is attractive.
And convince him.
An Sheng knew how to make Hu Da believe her, so she wasn't afraid.
Sure enough, when Hu Da heard her words, his solemn momentum was slightly restrained.
He narrowed his big eyes, looked at An Sheng for a moment, and then said, "Come with me." ”
After that, he didn't care about An Sheng and them, and went directly to the back hall with the woman in his arms.
An Sheng hurriedly followed with Qinghui.
She doesn't blame Hu Da for being unfriendly and polite, but anyone who has some skills has a weird temperament.
What's more, Hu Da still has such an experience, and it is normal not to be close to others.
However, all of this will change after tonight.
An Sheng gently curled the corners of his lips and smiled.
From the outside, the Hujia cake shop looks like a small shop, but when you enter the backyard, you know that there is something else.
Out of the back hall door, you will arrive at the backyard, there are a lot of flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, although it is dark and you can't distinguish its shape, but you can smell the fragrance.
There is a patio under the front steps of the adjacent house, and next to the patio, there is a grape trellis, and a stone table and stone bench are placed under the shelf.
You don't have to go there in person, An Sheng knows how cool and pleasant it should be under the grape trellis in the summer.
Living in such an environment, it can be seen that Hu Da is still a person with hope for life.
It's good to have hope, An Sheng said in his heart.
What she fears most is that Hu Da is full of despair and resentment in this world.
In that case, even if she recruited people to her side, it would be of little use.
Mr. and Mrs. Hu took An Sheng and Qinghui into the main room.
As soon as you enter, you can smell a strong medicinal gas, which will not disperse for a long time.
