Chapter 80: The Butcher's Shop

Liu Ruyu looked at Xiao Ran's figure and also braved the stars.

In the end, Liu Ruyu left early, Xiao Ran drank too much tea alone, and suddenly felt the urge to urinate.

But there was no place to go to the toilet in this Qingxin Palace, so looking at the countless vases on the shelf, Xiao Ran randomly picked one and began to shoot at it.

The old rule, after urinating, his body trembled, and then he trembled and Mingjin put away the gun.

So, he put the bottle back in its place and waited here for the identification results!

Xiao Ran didn't know that he would urinate, so this colorful dress came slowly. It's just that his face is a little dignified.

"After identification, the yang essence you collected today and last night is a normal man's!"

Caiyi also admired Xiao Ran's ghost idea at this time.

"Well, the fact that the Eight Sages are infertile is something that the palace has known for a long time, so to explain one thing, the Eight Sages King may have died a long time ago, and the body below the neck is not him at all!"

Xiao Ran affirmed.

"However, on that day, someone saw the Eight Sages King arrive at Qingsi Tower, this will not be fake!" Caiyi shook her head.

"Hehe, what you see with your eyes may not be true, the Eight Sages must have died at a certain critical point, this place is the death hole of the mastermind behind the scenes, so they die like the Eight Sages King, but they don't want to die in their place, and in the end they can only send someone to pretend to be the dead Eight Sages King and drop the bag!"

"But why did the other party kill the Eight Sages King?"

Caiyi still can't catch the other party's motive for killing.

"Hehehe, in some ignorant villages, when a woman can't have children, how does the in-law's family deal with it, if it's good, take a room, divorce the wife directly, and even dare to kill the wife if there is a conflict!"

Xiao Ran's words made Caiyi understand.

The Eight Sages King can't have children, even if he is talented, those old ministers will not support him, after all, they don't want to have no heir to the throne behind the Eight Sages, or find another heiress.

If the Eight Wise Kings are sensible, they should be low-key, but the Eight Wise Kings claim to be conservative leaders, but not being able to have children is an unforgivable sin in the eyes of conservatives, even if you are the Eight Wise Kings.

The Eight Sages King is very strong on weekdays, and finally ushered in the disaster of killing. At the same time, you can also blame the empress, which is one or two birds.

"But how do we catch the real murderer now!" Caiyi asked again.

"Let's take that place!" Xiao Ran said slowly.

"Okay, I'll go prepare the car!" Caiyi knew where Xiao Ran was going.

A carriage exited the palace and headed for the main road of Wentian City.

This main road goes all the way down and you can go out of the city from the south gate!

Of course, you will also pass through the Eight Sages Palace.

The carriage drove on the street, Xiao Ran closed his eyes and recuperated, and after half an hour, Xiao Ran said softly: "We have arrived!"

The carriage stopped directly at an intersection, it was very bustling here, it was already noon, Xiao Ran and Caiyi were also hungry, and they planned to have lunch directly at a restaurant at the intersection.

"Guest officer, please!" said the sharp-eyed Xiao Er

"Xiao Er, do you have a good position?" Xiao Ran asked.

"There is a place in the lobby!" Xiao Ran didn't finish speaking, Xiao Ran planned to leave!

"Wait for the guest officer, we still have a place, which was originally reserved for that guest, but he didn't come at this point, so he probably won't come, you sit there!"

They found a window spot with a pedestrian view of the street, which was a good location!

Child's forward service.

"What do you want to eat?"

Xiao Er said and took out a menu.

"This and this!"

Xiao Ran ticked two servings of vegetables on one page, and then gave the menu to Xiao Er.

"Guest officer, will you order two servings of greens?"

Xiao Er was also stunned, these two didn't look like people with no money, why were they so stingy when ordering food.

"I mean, don't want these two, give me a copy of this page!" Xiao Ran said in a flat tone.

"Okay, guest officer, you ordered the points and the meat dishes are all fresh pork and mutton, all of which we bought from the butcher shop opposite, and the meat is three points more delicious than others!"

Xiao Er looked at it so much, and he was also happy in his heart, after all, he also took a cut from each table, and he was going to make a lot of money today.

Xiao Ran inadvertently glanced at the butcher shop opposite, and found that there were really a lot of people queuing up to buy meat, and there was also a butcher shop diagonally opposite, which was much more deserted.

Xiao RanFrom the perspective of a businessman, there should be a difference between the meat of the two butcher shops, which one has high popularity and one has low popularity, indicating that the price is either cheap or the meat quality is really good!

The dish was served quickly.

Caiyi and Xiao Ran ate at the window, watching the flow of people at the intersection.

This location is a must-pass place for the Eight Sages to pass through the Imperial Palace and the Green Silk Tower.

However, as of now, he has not noticed anything abnormal.

After eating, Xiao Er served a cup of tea to the two guests.

"Xiao Er, your dishes are doing well!" Xiao Ran said deliberately, Caiyi also looked up at Xiao Ran, not knowing what he had to say to a shopkeeper.

"That's not it, our family's food is famous, many dignitaries have eaten here, the teacher said, the place where the guest officer is sitting now was once wrapped by a nobleman, he comes here to eat every day!

Xiao Er said.

"Does that person have a national character face, a mustache, about the same height as him, like pale green clothes, and a piece of gentleman's jade hanging from his waist, but he is a little blessed?"

Caiyi asked.

"Yes, yes, yes, that's him! Every time he comes here for dinner, he walks around the neighborhood after eating, and then he comes over the next day. ”

Xiao Er's head is like a chicken pecking rice.

Xiao Ran didn't speak at this time, he knew who Caiyi was talking about, it was the Eight Sages King.

After eating and drinking, Xiao Ran and Caiyi left in the carriage, and then headed towards their own house.

——

In an alley in the middle of the city, a husband and wife appeared, both of whom looked poor and dressed ordinarily.

The woman carried a basket in which she bought some vegetarian dishes.

"Husband, we haven't eaten meat for a long time!" "My wife's complexion is a little poor, and it seems that it is caused by malnutrition, although I ask the Imperial City here, but there are still a large number of people who can't afford to eat meat.

"Okay, buy a piece of pork kidney stew, the meat is too expensive, and the fat children don't eat it!"

It's a man who speaks, and it seems to be a woman's husband, but he's a little weak, and he seems to be a poor talent.

The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, and then walked into the distance.

The two pretended to be husband and wife, walked three streets away, and returned to the butcher shop where they had lunch at noon.

At this time, it is already afternoon, and the meat is generally sold in the first half of the day, because the meat is easy to spoil, so the butcher kills the pork before the hour, and the sky is not bright at this time, and when everyone gets up, the meat is also placed in the butcher shop.

The meat in the afternoon is not good meat, relatively cheap, but most of the time, there is no cheap meat, because the cheap meat is bought by the poor.

The poor couple looked at the board at the door of the butcher shop and there was no meat on it, and the man couldn't help frowning.

Looking inside, I saw the butcher sleeping soundly!
