Chapter 44 Pretending to be a cow

"Yes, the pheasant will never become a phoenix, the concubine will never be able to ascend to the throne, the concubine is still a concubine, and there is still a difference between the concubine and the lady." Lin Qi walked over calmly, it was only the first day of the New Year, Luo Qingwan's skin itching was twitching, it was really a day without fighting.

"You ......"

Luo Qingwan was angry, but the words were said by herself, in Luofu, who is the pheasant and who is the phoenix, a clear-eyed person can see through it at a glance, in the final analysis, her Luo Qingwan's identity is only useful in Luofu, if she goes out, who will take her seriously.

It's just a concubine, how can she compete with her concubine?

"Second sister, don't say that, the third sister is also a concubine, and the emperor named her to see her last night, when you say this, won't even the emperor scold you?"

Lovelan nervously persuaded her, and as she spoke, she looked around and saw that there was no one nearby, and then she calmed down.

"Hmph, who knows if she went out in the middle of the night, whether she went to see the emperor, maybe she went on a date with a wild man." Luo Qingwan refused to give up, holding her breath and couldn't get down.

"Then according to my sister's meaning, the emperor is a wild man? Last night, Father-in-law Yi personally sent me into the palace, could it be that my sister even dared to doubt the emperor? Or do you want to invite the emperor and face a confrontation? ”

Joke, the emperor has all the opportunities, will he care about the of a concubine? If it really comes, if Luo Qingwan is not punished for the crime of stitching, and falsely talking about the monarch, it is a capital crime that should be punished.

As soon as these words came out, Luo Qingwan didn't dare to say anything for a moment, glared at Lin Qi a few times, and went back to her yard angrily.

"Third sister, I apologize to you on behalf of the second sister, the second sister is like this, the knife mouth is tofu heart, begging the third sister not to blame her."

Knife mouth tofu heart?!

I'm afraid it's stinky tofu, right?

Luo Fulan didn't know that Luo Qingwan did all the vicious things in secret, every thing that was pulled out was a capital crime, and people like her, even if Lin Qi didn't clean it up, someone would come out of the right way and kill himself sooner or later.

"Third sister, there is a lantern festival on West Street tonight, you didn't go out much before, can we go and see it tonight?" Lovelan asked with a smile when she saw that she was still angry.

Will the West Street Lights meet?

Lin Qi's eyes suddenly bent, "Okay, it just so happens that I want to go out to buy some rouge gouache, Shen Shi goes out, and I can just catch the lantern festival when I go out on West Street." ”

After agreeing with Luo Fulan, Lin Qi immediately returned to his yard, and the ugly chou still held the mille-feuille cake sent by Qu and refused to let go, one in one hand, and ate openly.

Lin Qi immediately wrote a note, which read: The cardinal dancer, walking around the cattle slaughterhouse on West Street.

Lin Qi stuffed the note into the mille-feuille crisp and handed it to the ugly and said, "The third prince saved each other last time, we haven't come to the door to thank you, this mille-feuille cake is a thank you gift, send a copy to the prince." ”

"Huh? Miss, other people's gifts are all delicacies from the mountains and seas, how do you give a mille-feuille cake, will it be too stingy? ”

"Go ahead, no."

Seeing her so determined, Chou Chou nodded obediently, and then put on his clothes and took the food box to the Three Kings' Mansion.

Lin Qi waited in the house, and it was not until half of noon that Chou Chou came back with the food box, but the food box was full of all kinds of snacks.

At first glance, it was Kong Lingfeng who made it ugly.

"Sent? What did the prince say. ”

"The prince said, please rest assured, Miss arranged it, and it will be done properly."

Ugly smiled and handed over the food box, "Miss, the prince also said that the thank you gift is too valuable, and you want to return the gift, so you ...... Just ......"

The ugly blinked his eyes, staring at the food box all the time, and he was afraid that Lin Qi would blame him, so he didn't dare to move.

Lin Qi smiled, "If it's a return gift, just accept it." ”

Ugly and ugly has a little thought in his heart, can Lin Qi still know that a person like Xiao Chengyue, who has a few boxes of jewelry as soon as he makes a move, will give a box of food? You don't have to think about it to know that Kong Lingfeng taught her to say this.

The sun was sinking, and it was about dusk, Lin Qi and Luo Fu Lan took a carriage all the way to the West Street entrance, because of the New Year's Festival, the crowd was very large, Lin Qi used the excuse that the carriage aisle would collide with passers-by, and asked the coachman to wait at the street entrance first.

The two walked into the street, in Tianyu, ordinary women, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, can go out at will on weekdays, but among the ladies of the family, the family rules are strict, if it is not the solar term, few people go out to hang out.

Like Lovelan, it's one of them.

"Quick, go and see, there's something big going on ahead!"

As soon as Lin Qi and the others arrived at the entrance of the street, they saw that the crowd suddenly dispersed, and people kept running in the direction of the cattle slaughterhouse.

Lin Qi secretly calculated the time, there was still a quarter of an hour before the unitary hour, the time was neither early nor late, just right.

"Dare to ask, what's going on ahead?" Next to Lin Qi and the others, there were two young sons, who reached out and grabbed an aunt in a hurry, and asked urgently.

Looking at this costume, it looks like it is specially for the lantern festival.

"Oops, let it go, the cows in the slaughterhouse ahead are crazy." The aunt was so anxious that her eyebrows furrowed, and she gestured with her hands, "All, all rushed out, and they hit people when they saw them, my Erlang is still inside, I have to hurry up to find my Erlang, let go!" ”

As he spoke, he pulled hard, pulled back his clothes from the hands of the two, and hurriedly ran away.

"Third sister...... Otherwise, let's go back, the cow is crazy and doesn't recognize people. ”

"Don't be afraid, cows don't eat people, I just want to see what a mad cow looks like, if you're afraid, go back to the carriage and wait for me, I'll take a look and come back."

After Lin Qi finished speaking, he let go of Luo Fulan's hand and plunged into the crowd.

When Lin Qi went, the slaughterhouse was in chaos, the iron fence had been knocked down into broken pillars, the frenzied cattle were scattered, attacking in all directions at the street corners, and a group of butchers with machetes followed cautiously behind them, waiting for the opportunity to move.

And the broken red cloth all over the ground, you don't have to think about it, it was left behind by Xiao Chengyue who led people to dress up as dancers and succeeded.

Lin Qi's heart was crossed, he walked straight over, picked up a red curtain and held it in his hand, and stood in the crowd and waited quietly.

The scattered herd was soon stopped by the butcher, and most of the strong cattle were cut down, leaving only a few who were not very angry and were put back in the cattle farm.

Seeing that the crowd gathered and dispersed, in the distance, Jing Zhaoyin and the people from the government came when they heard the sound.

The corners of Lin Qi's mouth hooked, the opportunity has come!

Immediately, he quickly used the red curtain as a belt, tied it around his waist, and rushed out of the crowd, shouting loudly, "Sister, my sister, where are you......"

Lin Qidong ran and looked west, his brows were furrowed, tears were hanging in his eyes, and he looked anxious, it really looked like he had lost his relatives.

Suddenly, the strong cattle that were re-locked back in the cattle farm saw the red, and immediately went crazy again, and hit the iron fence with their horns.

The mad cow rushed out and followed closely behind, only to see that at the front of the crowd, a thin and small woman ran desperately, followed by a strong cow that was more than ten times taller than her.

"Help......" Lin Qi desperately ran in the direction of Zhang's mansion, although he knew that someone would answer, but he still had a tight string in his heart.

This kind of deadly business, don't do it again in the future!

The distance from the cattle slaughterhouse to Zhang's mansion, but a few dozen steps, the cow is fierce, seeing that it is approaching the door of Zhang's mansion, Lin Qi suddenly paused, gasping rapidly, she stopped, and the cow also stopped.

The ox's breath was thin, and a touch of red gradually filled the bull's eye, and the strong ox dug the soil with its hind hooves and rushed up.

"Ah......h

Lin Qi's eyes were closed, and she was ready to die, but the expected pain did not hit her body, she felt a pair of big hands suddenly come over her waist, and she took a step back, and there was a warm huwring beside her, and a brocade robe was covered.

"Are you alright?" A clear voice sounded overhead.

Lin Qi was stunned for three seconds, and peeked out from under the brocade robe, only to see the person beside him, holding the sword in one hand and holding her in the other, the end of the sword was bloodstained.

In front of Lin Qi, a stack of reckless men with big-handled machetes in their hands, muscular arms, as soon as they withdrew their hands, they sniffed, and the ring on the tip of their nose swung a few times, the man glanced at Lin Qi, his face kept smiling, but he didn't speak, he took a step back and put away the big knife.

And the person next to him is Xu Liangjie, the Qing of Dali Temple!

"Thank you, Lord Xu, for coming to the rescue."

"It's you!"

Xu Liangjun recognized at a glance that this person was the one who pointed out in front of the Yun family that Bailing Hua was the replacement of Lanling by Miss Luo San, Luo Baisu.

Xu Liangjun only came on the emperor's orders today, and he didn't know that Lin Qi would be here, it was a coincidence that he came to the rescue, but when he saw Lin Qi, he was extremely shocked.

"Why is Lord Xu here?" As soon as Jingzhao Yin Guo Wei saw Xu Liangjie, he immediately came over and saluted with his fists, and couldn't help but wonder.

Xu Liang was silent, naturally knowing that the emperor's order was in his body, and he wanted a full set of plays, so he replied, "This official was ordered by the emperor to investigate the case of flower theft, and followed the traces all the way, and found this nearby." ”

He waved his sleeve, revealing his other hand under his sleeve, which was a white bell flower.

This is Lanling!

However, Lin Qi pretended to be surprised and said, "Could it be that this is the white bell flower left behind by the legendary flower thief when he committed the crime?" Found here, is it possible to say that the flower thieves are nearby? ”

"Oh my God." Lin Qi exclaimed in surprise, his complexion changed suddenly, like a little girl seeking refuge, he grabbed Xu Liangjie's sleeve and shrank weakly behind him.

Xu Liangji's originally calm face, he couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, this woman, when she was in Yunfu that day, she didn't look like this!

"That's true." Immediately, Xu Liangjun raised his eyes and looked at the mansion where a plaque was being posted in front of several people, and the word "Zhang Mansion" was written on it.

"If Lord Guo is not in a hurry, let's go to check with this official, so that I can prove my name for Lord Zhang."

Guo Wei's heart trembled, this was a great opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and he immediately nodded with a smile, "That's nature, that's nature." ”

Lin Qi followed a few people, together into the Zhang Mansion, the owner of this Zhang Mansion, is the imperial historian Zhang Ji, in the court, the official position is not big, but it is not small, if it is a battle for imperial power, the chess piece of the imperial historian, can be very little.

"Lord Xu, Lord Guo, what are you doing!"

Zhang Jiqi was in the courtyard, and when he saw someone coming, he glanced at the officers and soldiers who followed behind him, and immediately turned cold.

"This official is ordered by the emperor to track down the case of flower thieves, this is the token." As he spoke, Xu Liangjun directly showed the imperial token from his waist, facing Zhang Ji.

"If you want to investigate the case, go and investigate, why did Lord Xu bring so many officers and soldiers to my Zhang Mansion? Could it be that Lord Xu suspects me of harboring flower thieves? ”

Zhang Ji's eyes narrowed slightly, with an expression worthy of heaven and earth, however, at the moment when Xu Liangjun took out the white bell flower, his face suddenly sank and he was a little panicked.

"This was found near Mr. Zhang's house, whether there is any harboring, the official said it doesn't count, but the evidence, has the final say."

Then he raised his right hand high and waved it back, "Come on, search for me!" ”
