Chapter 17 Spring Lingering Pavilion

"I'm fine, but Chu Qing is injured."

"He deserves it! I put you in danger, even if he wasn't hurt, I couldn't spare him! ”

"......" Ye Sili seemed to understand why Gu Liwu's face was not very good-looking when he saw Chu Qing last night.

"You can't blame him, after all, he went out at the invitation of me and Xiaoling, and this kind of thing happened."

In the end, the most wronged person is Chu Qing.

"By the way, Ah Wei and I are going to the pavilion, are you going?"

"Of course." Mu Jiufeng closed the folding fan in his hand with a "snap", and his face was light and light, "I naturally want to go and see how useless that Daliang Prince is, he can't even protect the two women, and he even makes himself lie on the bed!" ”

"......" Ye Sili looked at Mu Jiufeng's appearance, and knew that the pavilion would definitely not be peaceful today.

"Zuiyun Building is an unusual restaurant, and it must not be an accident that the group of people were able to break in rashly yesterday." Gu Liwu glanced at Mu Jiufeng with great disgust, "Jiufeng and the boss of Zuiyun Building are old acquaintances, you two go to Zuiyun Tower to investigate first, and I'll go to the pavilion over there." ”

"Okay." Ye Sili hurriedly responded, and then pulled the reluctant Mu Jiufeng away.

The two of them hurried up and soon arrived at the Zuiyun Building, Ye Sili looked at the guards outside the Zuiyun Building, a little puzzled.

"What's going on?"

"I think this matter is too big, it has been passed to the emperor, you left from Zuiyun Tower before you were assassinated yesterday, and the emperor must have sent someone to investigate the case."

"Then we won't be able to get in." Ye Sili looked at the Drunken Cloud Tower, which was tightly surrounded, and Mu Jiufeng walked over with her.

The leading guard recognized Mu Jiufeng and hurriedly said hello, but said that the four princes were investigating the matter inside, and it was really not good to let them in.

"The fourth prince is in charge of this matter?"

Before Mu Jiufeng finished speaking, he saw Xiao Yu walking out of it.

"Nine Winds, Si Li, why are you here?" When Xiao Yu saw Mu Jiufeng and the others, his eyes immediately lit up, and the two of them entered the Drunken Cloud Tower.

The folding fan in Xiao Yu's hand looked at the palm of his hand lightly, and said, "So, you are also here to investigate the case?" ”

"yes." Ye Sili looked around roughly, it was the first time she had seen Zuiyun Tower so deserted.

The proprietress sat cross-legged at a table inside, and Xiao Er next to her poured wine for her. The proprietress of Zuiyun Mansion rarely shows up, and Si Li doesn't see her many times, but she also remembers that she loves to drink, just like at this time, Xiao Yu has led people to seal her restaurant, but she can still drink calmly.

Xiao Yu looked helpless and said: "The incident happened suddenly, although Zuiyun Tower has been blocked, there are too many guests here, and your private room yesterday was also cleaned, and there are no clues to be found, and the proprietress doesn't say anything." ”

Mu Jiufeng followed Xiao Yu's helpless gaze.

"Fallen mother?"

The proprietress who was originally sitting alone drinking in the distance heard the sound and saw Mu Jiufeng, so she put down her wine glass and walked towards the three of them.

"Boy of the Nine Winds." Luo Niang looked at Xiao Yu and Ye Sili beside Mu Jiufeng, and said clearly: "Prince Jiufeng is also here to investigate the matter of Prince Liang?" ”

Ye Sili stood aside and didn't speak, and took a closer look at Luo Niang, it turned out that the person in charge of the Zuiyun Building in Kyoto was actually such a woman.

Luo Niang is only in her early twenties, but she has not yet been married, she runs such a large industry alone, her behavior is neither humble nor arrogant, her facial features are atmospheric but cold, and she is not flattering when she talks with dignitaries and nobles, and she even has no smile in her eyebrows, only when she sees Mu Jiufeng at this moment, her tone is a little softer.

When Mu Jiufeng saw Luo Niang here, he knew that things were much simpler, but when he mentioned Prince Daliang, he was still very dissatisfied.

"Who cares about him, if it weren't for Si Li and Xiao Ling being involved in this, this son wouldn't be too lazy to care!"

Luo Niang glanced at Si Li, and beckoned a few people to sit down.

Mu Jiufeng took the tea poured by Luo Niang, took a sip, and asked:

"Luo Niang, do you know a thing or two about this?"

Ye Sili and Xiao Yu both looked at Luo Niang curiously, and Luo Niang didn't twist it, so she simply said:

"There are some eyebrows, indeed."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu was not happy.

"My voice was hoarse just now, that's not what you said!"

Ye Sili pulled Xiao Yu to signal him to calm down, Luo Niang only glanced at him lightly, and said, "The fourth prince should have told Luo Niang earlier that you are a friend of the Nine Winds Prince." ”

"Poof!" Ye Sili looked at Xiao Yu's deflated appearance and couldn't help laughing.

Without waiting for Xiao Yu to speak again, Ye Sili preemptively said:

"Luo Niang, please speak."

"Long before Prince Daliang's accident, someone had already come to Zuiyun Tower to make trouble."

"Yesterday morning, a man booked a private room opposite the county lord, and it didn't take long for a few women to come in and go to the man's private room, Xiao Er saw that they were all dressed up and didn't stop him, according to Xiao Er, the man didn't close the door of the private room, and looked at the opposite room from time to time."

Because of Mu Jiufeng's relationship, their group is a frequent visitor to Zuiyun Building, and the private room is also fixed, and no one will go there on weekdays, so it is reasonable for the man to pay more attention to their room this time, and it is reasonable for the shopkeeper to pay more attention.

"That's it? So what do you mean by the trouble you just said? Xiao Yu asked further.

Luo Niang glanced at the three of them and said lightly: "They are doing such frivolous and dirty things with the door open in my territory, and the old lady naturally wants to blast them out." ”

"......" Mu Jiufeng and Xiao Yu glanced at each other and touched their noses in embarrassment.

Most of the time, when Luo Niang called someone to drive the group of people, there was a dispute between the two sides.

Ye Sili looked at the three of them who seemed to understand the reason for the matter, and was a little confused, did she hear it? So, why did they make a fuss?

"Why......" Without waiting for Ye Sili to finish asking, Mu Jiufeng hurriedly interrupted and asked:

"Luo Niang, do you know anything else? For example, what is the origin of the man and the group of women? ”

"Oh yes, where are they?" Ye Sili turned his head to look at Luo Niang, waiting for her answer.

Luo Niang's eyes fell on Mu Jiufeng and Ye Sili and explored it several times, and finally settled on Mu Jiufeng, her eyebrows seemed to be smiling, she picked up the wine glass in her hand and drank most of it, and said lightly:

"I don't know the identity of that man, but I don't have much impression of the ordinary boy's dress. But I'm very familiar with those women......"

The three of them came to the spirit, and listened attentively to what Luo Niang said.

"They're from the Spring Pavilion."

"Spring Lingering Pavilion ?!!!" The voices of all three of them were several degrees higher, and then their eyes changed from surprise to confusion to questioning.

"How do you know about Spring Lingering Pavilion?!" Again, the three of them turned their heads to look at each other in unison.

Luo Niang looked at the tacit understanding that the three of them appeared inexplicably, and just smiled faintly.

Ye Sili spoke first, looked at Xiao Yu gossipily and asked:

"Ah Yu, you are deep in the palace, how can you know about this Spring Lingering Pavilion?"

"Sister Sili, don't get me wrong, I'm not that kind of person!" Xiao Yu immediately understood Ye Sili's burning gossip heart, and hurriedly lowered his voice and explained: "I know that Chunying Pavilion is only because Qin Guiren was the number one card there in the first place, so I barely heard about it. ”

Qin nobles? Ye Sili has a slight impression, if others understand the concubines in the palace, it is naturally inappropriate, but the person who said this is Xiao Yu, Ye Sili does not feel strange, Concubine Rong left early, only Xiao Yu and Xiao Ling have been with Xiao Ling in the palace since childhood, Xiao Yu In order to protect Xiao Ling, he also understands the tricks of harem women thoroughly.

"What about the Nine Winds, what's the matter with you?"

"Me?" Mu Jiufeng made a "gentleman frank" arrogant appearance, and said: "How can this son know anything about that kind of fireworks land, it's just that I have heard of it occasionally. ”

Chunying Pavilion is indeed quite famous.

"How do you know?"

"Where did you know that?"

Mu Jiufeng and Xiao Yu looked at Ye Sili in unison, and their two pairs of eyes stared at her a little weak.

"I—I've heard about it, isn't that a coincidence, so what are we going to do next?"

Ye Sili stiffly changed the topic, she wouldn't say that she was playing peek-a-boo with them as a child, she ran too far alone, and happened to see that the door of Chunying Pavilion was full of girls, thinking that she could confuse her vision, so she sneaked in, but the people inside were disheveled and pulled, so frightened that she hurriedly ran out again.

Xiao Yu carefully inquired about the details of Luo Niang's day.

"Luo Niang, how do you conclude that they are from the Spring Lingering Pavilion?"

"Although they are dressed in the clothes of a serious daughter's family, the rouge smell accumulated on their bodies for many years is not so easy to get rid of." Luo Niang replied.

She has seen a lot of people from all walks of life, and her ability to recognize people is naturally not bad.

Ye Sili and the three of them left Zuiyun Tower and returned to Yugong Mansion, just in time to meet Gu Liwu, who had just returned from the pavilion.

"Ah Worry, what can Doctor He find out?"

"Chu Qing's wound is indeed related to yesterday's rouge gouache."

Gu Li said: "Chu Qing's wound yesterday was not serious, but it wasn't until Imperial Doctor He barely stopped the bleeding, and his wound has not healed, but has continued to deteriorate. ”

Ye Sili immediately understood.

"You mean we were put on a pitch yesterday?"

Ye Sili carefully recalled yesterday's events and said:

"Xiao Ling and I decided to go to Chu Qing on a temporary basis, so the people behind the scenes can only be everything that was temporarily laid out yesterday, we went to the suburbs early in the morning, the reason why that person didn't choose to do it in the suburbs is that he is not sure whether Chu Qing will go to the appointment alone, and secondly, it may be that he is afraid of Chu Qing's skills."

Therefore, he deliberately staged the scene of Drunken Cloud Tower, letting Chu Qing first dip in a special medicinal powder, and then as long as he was injured, the wound would naturally deteriorate rapidly. But ......"

Ye Sili didn't understand a little, Mu Jiufeng took her words and said:

"But how are the people behind the scenes sure that you will definitely go to the Drunken Cloud Tower? And when you arrived at the Drunken Cloud Tower, and how to tell that you will be drunk. ”

Speaking of drunkenness, Ye Sili ignored Mu Jiufeng's gaze and said:

"If Chu Qing hadn't drunk too much yesterday, or if he didn't have to care so much about me and Xiao Ling, then whether he would be injured or not is really another matter."
