Chapter 131: Pug
She hurriedly chased after the figure and looked, as if she had entered the backyard of Huarong Restaurant.
In this kind of restaurant, the backyard is generally the residence of the people who work in the restaurant, or the place where the boss handles the accounts.
"Is this restaurant owner a fortune teller?"
She asked curiously.
"No, but it is said that there is a fortune teller in the team of this troupe all year round. It seems that it can be counted as feng shui and fortune, so it has always been carried as a mascot. Ji Cui finished speaking, and pointed to the people in the hall.
Again: "But if you think it's really a mascot, you see, doesn't this bring fortune?" These people come to the theater every day, not to mention the tea and dinner money, just the money collected from watching the theater is not ordinarily large. ”
Ye Shuhua was noncommittal.
His eyes changed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, she sorted out her thoughts and got up to leave.
"Let's go, let's go back first."
"Miss, but you have thought of a countermeasure?"
Ye Shuhua shook her head, "Shut down the study for two days." ”
Out of Huarong Restaurant, got into the carriage, the carriage drove slowly, during which Ji Cui was ordered to quietly get out of the carriage and go somewhere.
There was a surging flow of people on the street, and the carriage was driving slowly, Ye Shuhua shook the fan, and looked outside the carriage without a ride.
The sun was scorching, and the vendors were all red-faced and sweaty.
This summer, the heavy rain in the past few days, the exposure in the past few days.
It's really hard.
Thinking like this, she thought of Xiao Qi in Qinggou Lane again.
I don't know how he's doing.
"Turn around and go to Qinggou Lane."
The groom received the order and tightened the reins, and the horse neighed in pain and turned around according to the groom.
The carriage was around the corner, and suddenly it nearly collided with another speeding carriage.
"Pilot!" The groom on the opposite side was angry and looked like a horizontal face.
"Which one is not long-eyed, dare to hit our Xu family's carriage! I'm getting tired of living! ”
The groom who drove Ye Shuhua was personally selected by Mama Hu, and he had good riding skills, but he was the most stupid and honest.
was angrily reprimanded by the man, and he was just so anxious that his face was red and his neck was thick, and he replied without pain.
"You don't have long eyes, it's obvious that you hit us!"
In the carriage, Ye Shuhua held a fan in his hand, raised his hand, lifted the curtain, and glanced at it.
It is the carriage of the Xu family.
The person driving the horse is so arrogant, is it Xu Yanying?
No, Xu Yanying was just beaten and confined because of the conspiracy of Qinglong Temple to kill herself, how could she come out at this time.
Who else is there in the Xu family?
Just as she was wondering, half of her head poked out of the carriage opposite, and she looked up.
Surprise flashed across his face.
Why is he, it's only mid-to-late July, and August hasn't arrived yet, why did he come back?
I saw a gentle and humble smile on the man's face, and his eyes were also shining with crystals.
"Girl, I'm offended, please forgive me."
"Li Zhong, how do you drive a horse, didn't I say that you should be slower!"
The horseman's eyebrows, who were called Li Zhong, instantly drooped, and he nodded busily.
The man raised his eyes to look at Ye Shuhua again, and when he raised his eyes, the expression of anger at the groom naturally switched to a warm smile.
"Girl first."
Ye Shuhua nodded slightly, the fan was withdrawn, and the curtain was lowered.
The groom drove the carriage towards Qinggou Lane.
The person just now was none other than the third son of the Xu family, who invited Xu Zhuoying, who went to the south to be the local governor in order to appease the riots.
She remembered that it should take another month for him to be transferred back to the capital, why did he come back early?
Could it be because of Xu Yanying's business?
Just thinking about it, I have arrived at Qinggou Lane.
Ye Shuhua went to find Xiao Qi, only to learn that Xiao Qi had been favored by the nobles and had left Qinggou Lane to follow the nobles.
She gave the food she had bought on the way to the groom to the other beggars.
Xiao Qi is reluctant to come to her house to do things, but is willing to follow others.
Ye Shuhua couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart, but she didn't ask who the noble person was.
It's getting dark.
When Ye Shuhua returned to the county lord's mansion, Ji Cui had already returned.
Seeing the young lady coming back, he hurriedly took a few steps to greet her.
Holding her arm, he replied, "The slave maid has already told Wanquan Gongzi to let him investigate the fortune teller of the Huarong Opera Troupe, and according to what you said, Miss, focus on checking whether he was the one who calculated your evil star personality back then." ”
Ye Shuhua nodded.
"It's just Miss, are we closing the study these days, and we are making a lot of money from the Huarong Opera Troupe?"
"Let's let him earn it first, don't worry."
Easy to stay.
Yin Zixun was buried in the warehouse, digging three feet into the ground to find something.
Behind him, including the door of the storeroom, were objects he threw out casually.
Scattered lying on the ground, on the steps.
Looking up, the out-of-print ancient books, celebrity calligraphy and paintings, all seem ordinary but are actually priceless.
Ordinary rich and noble families, casually, are eager to provide for it, but the owner of this storehouse is like throwing garbage all over the ground.
"Where! Where the hell is it? ”
Jiuyu heard the movement and walked quietly.
He walked around behind Childe and patted him gently.
"Childe, what are you looking for?"
Yin Zixun pulled a pile of painting scrolls in a box and muttered.
"I'm looking for the portrait that Ye Shuhua painted for me, I remember to let you put it in the warehouse, why can't I find it!"
"Oh! It rained the other day, and you didn't say you soaked several paintings, but there was this one! Didn't you throw it away! ”
The more Yin Zixun spoke, the more he felt that it was possible, pointed to Jiuyu's nose, and said angrily.
Jiuyu secretly smiled, but his face was not obvious.
An innocent face.
"No, my subordinates have checked it, and they are all ordinary famous paintings."
"Really?" He was suspicious.
"Really!"
Jiuyu hesitated whether to say it, and finally stopped teasing the son, and said: "The county lord's painting subordinates are in charge of their own affairs, and they are afraid that they will be damp in the warehouse, so they will be placed in the wardrobe of your bedroom." ”
For the first time, Yin Zixun felt that Jiuyu was so reliable, so he went to the dormitory, and sure enough, he found the painting.
He smiled like a child like a treasure.
Only then did Jiuyu report the matter.
"Childe, it has been verified that on the night of July 14, the people who assassinated you were all from the Li country. And it seems that they have been given some kind of order to kill you at that moment. ”
"It is consistent with what the county lord said, you will be assassinated on the fifteenth day of July. The other party obviously has a clear goal, and he is counting the hour, as if the easiest moment to kill you is the early morning of July 15. ”
Yin Zixun found a jade box, carefully put the painting in, and put the jade box at the head of the bed.
so that he could take it out and look at it.
After doing all this, he turned around and carefully recalled Jiuyu's words.
"If that's the case, then it seems that the other party is either reborn like Ye Shuhua, or he knows all this, and he wants to kill me on that day, so that Ye Shuhua and I will die completely."
"Have you found out the identity of the person behind the scenes?"
Jiuyu shook his head, "There are too few clues, and there is no living mouth, from the corpse, I just found these." ”
Yin Zixun was not surprised, his eyes were dim, his index finger and thumb rubbed against each other, and said: "You are secretly investigating slowly, and after this matter, he will not move again for a short time." ”
As he spoke, he walked outside, and there was a book on the table, picked it up and went out.
Ye Shuhua was drinking tea, and someone reported it.
"County Lord, Yin Zixun Gongzi is here, do you want him to come in?"
She waved her hand, and the next person understood.
Not long after, Yin Zixun strode over.
As soon as he saw Ye Shuhua, a bright smile appeared on his face, like a promising little Langjun who finally saw his beloved girl.
Xi Zizi trotted over and handed her the record in his hand.
He sat on the chair that the maidservant had just moved, across the table from her.
"This is a record of some herbs in the whole of China and even in Li, and the medicinal effects are clearly written. For you. ”
Ye Shuhua glanced at him, her brows arched slightly, "What are you doing with me this?" I'm not a doctor. My name as a desperate physician is acupuncture, three needles to remove poison and dredge the meridians. Do not call the pulse to heal the disease. ”
At that time, she was watching the acupuncture taught by the old man very interesting, and the acupuncture was the most effective and useful thing she thought could save people, and she knew that acupuncture points could also kill people.
"You just learn what to do, in case it helps. Besides, if you were to encounter that plague again, if you were familiar with it, you would not be blind. ”
After he reminded him like this, Ye Shuhua really remembered that thrilling night.
It's okay to memorize more antidote herbs.
She reluctantly accepted it, "You came just to give me this?" ”
"And ...... Look at you. As he spoke, his eyes narrowed into slits, he smiled like a pug.
