Chapter 7 Mystery is unsolvable
It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that Li Yu, the king of Qi, was unruly and domineering, and the king of Qi's mother, Concubine Shufei Niangniang, died early, and the saint was even more helpless and helpless, so he had to send him to the military camp to polish and practice. However, in the Battle of Halle six years ago, the King of Qi was unfortunately seriously injured, and since then he has been in a state of decline, and has been nostalgic for Qinglou and indulged in lust all year round.
A few months ago, I don't know why the King of Qi suddenly got the secret decree of the saint, and soon left for Liangzhou. Everyone speculated about the saint's thoughts, and there was already an undercurrent in the court.
The expressions of the people in the government were uncertain.
In the wings.
Shen Yining took off his hat and looked at Li Yu, who was sitting at the desk with a light breeze, a little at a loss, he had already prepared dozens of words, and at the same time, he insulted this dog man tens of millions of times in his heart.
Abominable feudal dynasty! Abominable ruling class!
"Please also ask Mrs. Shen to do this king a favor."
"I... Please also ask the prince to instruct the people to do their best. Shen Yining bowed his head respectfully.
Alas, there is no way, you can only bend your waist for five buckets of rice!
Li Yu took the restraint and crampedness of the little lady into his eyes, which was completely different from the previous appearance of indifference and forcing himself to take poison, and an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was fleeting.
The first person to be interrogated was Zhou's mother.
"Back to the prince's words, the slave family got a letter from Teng Tingshi early yesterday morning that he wanted to entertain distinguished guests, and began to prepare a banquet. This Qin lady has always been Teng Tingshi's treasure, and Teng Tingshi named her to attend. That Zhang Niangzi is still a little timid and shy, but her appearance is unique, Teng Tingshi specially told the slave family that there was a distinguished guest from Chang'an tonight, and he also specially ordered Zhang Niangzi to come over, and the slave family naturally did not dare to slack off, and coaxed Zhang Niangzi to go. And the Yin lady next to the prince......"
The two beautiful ladies who are on the left and right sides of Teng Hong tonight are Qin Xiayun and Zhang Rufeng mentioned by Zhou's mother.
After Zhou's mother went out, Li Yu was carefully studying the testimony.
Shen Yining suddenly remembered something and whispered in his ear at Li Yu's neck.
"Wang, lord, I heard the lady in the pavilion mention that Mother Zhou is from Chang'an, and Qin Niangzi was brought from Chang'an by her at that time."
"Do you remember what year she came to Liangzhou?"
Shen Yining shook his head.
Li Yu felt that the back of his ears was a little itchy and hot.
The next person to interrogate was Qin Xiayun, who was closest to Teng Hong at the banquet.
Qin Xiayun's face was as usual when she came in, calm and calm.
"Please tell the lady the household registration first, and then tell me the details of tonight's events." Li Yu asked.
Qin Xiayun pondered for a moment, and then replied: "The slave family was originally from Chang'an, and when I was young, my family was in the middle of the road, and there was no rice to cook, so Ah Niang sold me to Zhou's mother. After that, he followed Zhou's mother to Liangzhou to make a living. After a pause, he seemed to be a little fugue, and then continued: "That Teng Thorn Shi loves my dancing posture and regards me as a confidant, and every time he comes back to Yanqing Pavilion to eat and drink, he will order my brand and let me be by my side, and the same is true tonight." Then he bowed his head and said no more.
Then Shen Yining was slimming down for Qin Niangzi in the inner room, and suddenly heard Qin Niangzi exclaim.
"What?" Li Yu was a little vigilant.
"Back to the prince, the slave's hairpin is gone. I was wearing it when I went out this morning, but I don't know when it disappeared....."
Li Yu ordered Qin Niangzi to describe the lost hairpin style in detail, which was a silver-gilded butterfly hairpin with jewels.
After Qin Xiayun went out, Shen Yining added: "This Qin Niangzi and Gu Niangzi have always been at odds because they are fighting for the name of the capital. But Gu Niangzi didn't sit at the table tonight, so it shouldn't have anything to do with her. ”
"It's this Gu Niangzi that you went to treat today?" Li Yu asked coldly.
"Exactly."
"You often come to Yanqing Pavilion?"
"There are many ladies in the pavilion who have gynecological diseases, well, women's diseases, I often come to diagnose and treat."
Shen Yining replied truthfully, a little unclear.
The next one is Zhang Rufeng. When Zhang Niangzi came in, she rubbed her handkerchief lightly with both hands, a little uneasy, her face was shy, she looked like a frightened little rabbit, even Shen Yining felt that she was beautiful and wanted to love her.
However, Shen Yining found that Li Yu's face did not change. It's weird, didn't you say that His Royal Highness King Qi loves beauties the most?
"The slave family, the slave family is from Liangzhou. When my parents died when I was young, my aunt sold me to Zhou's mother in Yanqing Pavilion. I've been studying here ever since. Mother Zhou pitied me for being young, so I didn't have to attend today, but Teng Tingshi personally ordered my sign, and I followed Sister Ayun. Please, please Lord Mingjian, the slave family really doesn't know anything. As he spoke, he shed a few jade tears, and the sky was pitiful.
Then there are Dong Wenbai, Sima Caorong and Zhang Heng, the chief historian of the Liangzhou Mansion. The two of them said similar things, both of them liked to eat some pills in order to live forever on a fair day, and they loved to drink, and they were often able to drink a few large pots, and their faces were flushed, but they were fine on the second day.
However, when asked about the origin of the elixir, the three had different opinions.
Dong Changshi said that although he was Teng Gong's staff, Teng Gong was arrogant and conceited, and the two often disagreed. Teng Gong and Cao Sima both love to ask for heaven and ask, so in the past, Teng Gong and Cao Sima were more familiar with each other, and the two also went to the most prestigious Xuanzhen Guan in Liangzhou to ask for heaven and asked, presumably at that time they got acquainted with the powerful Taoist.
However, Cao Sima said that although Teng Gong often went to Xuanzhen Temple with him, but later a profound old Taoist invited Teng Gong to leave alone, and the two asked separately from then on. After that time, Teng Gong was always full of spring breeze, and he gradually drifted away from himself.
Zhang Beijia complained with a sad face, although he was a Liangzhou don't drive, but Teng Gong had the power alone, and he couldn't speak. He had also been to Xuanzhen Temple with Teng Gong and Cao Sima, but he was only waiting at the door, and he didn't know anything else. I heard that Teng Gong would even discuss the encirclement and suppression of bandits with that chief.
Shen Yining frowned, indignant in his heart, sure enough, there is a reason why Liangzhou has become more and more decayed and decadent in recent years.
Li Yu took Shen Yining back to the Warm Pavilion again, and searched everywhere, but found nothing.
Shen Yining suddenly remembered that there was still a person who had not been searched.
"Lord Wang, and Teng Thorn Shi ....."
Li Yu pulled Shen Yining over, and immediately turned around and ran to the small room next to him.
"Please follow this king, there may be danger here."
The door of the small chamber was open, the guards had passed out to the ground, and the smell of ecstasy incense still lingered in the room.
Teng Hong's lower robe was scattered, and there were traces of rummaging.
Li Yu estimated the hour, thinking that it was already late at night, and he was afraid that he would not be able to ask anything tonight, rather than sit and wait for death, it was better to let the tiger return to the mountain and wait for the changes. dismissed everyone, and secretly instructed Kang Ming, Kangtai and others to follow Dong Changshi, Cao Sima and Zhang Beijia respectively to wait and see what happened.
Investigating Teng Hong's condition again, the pulse was much more stable than before, and Shen Yining breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Shen Yining was still worried about another thing at this time, Li Yu was going to stay in Yanqing Pavilion tonight, so what should he do, if the murderer was still in the pavilion, would he be in danger?
