Pei Jiuzhi: "......"

Xiao Yan ignored him and walked straight into the Qianjin Building.

Qianjinlou is at the end of Ningyang Street, the whole building is brightly lit, pedestrians and businessmen come and go, since the new emperor ascended the throne, Qianjinlou has become the most prosperous restaurant in Ningyang Street.

Inside, several people went straight to the private room on the roof.

In the Qianjin Building, only the people with the highest status can go up to the top floor private room to enjoy the scenery of Yujing, in the entire Yujing City, except for the prince of the dynasty, Taifu Ge Lao, it is the palace of those few.

Meng Qing was helped by Lu Yuzhu to the window, she gently pushed the window sash open, and the night view of the entire Yujing City appeared in front of her.

Looking from a high place, the entire Yujing City is shrouded in a black curtain, but only the lights of ten thousand homes flicker frequently, and occasionally you can see the direction of the imperial city, and the street market downstairs is even more lively, which is more dazzling and bright than the stars in the sky.

Meng Qing was amazed by the beautiful scenery, and she couldn't speak for a long time, it was the first time she had overlooked the night view of Yujing City in this high-rise building.

Lu Yuzhu smiled proudly: "How is it!" Beautiful, right? ”

"It's beautiful."

"When I first chose this building, I took a fancy to this private room at the top, and if it weren't for it, I wouldn't want to spend so much money on it!"

Xiao Yan sat quietly and enjoyed the night view.

Meng Qing leaned on the edge of the flower window, "I asked Lingyu to inform you, how did you think about it?" ”

"After thinking about it, I'm going to run for election."

"Don't worry, I will let the Secretary Bureau take care of one or two, and this time I will definitely make you the number one imperial merchant in the entire Chu State in one fell swoop."

Lu Yuzhu stood up straight.

"Your Majesty, don't open the back door for me, if you open the back door for me, how should other merchant families think of my Lu family? In short, I still want to rely on my own efforts to become a first-class wealthy businessman in Chu State. ”

A slight surprise flashed in Meng Qing's eyes, and he said, "You don't want to, and I don't force it." ”

She admires Lu Yuzhu very much, she is never willing to go against her wishes, insists on herself, and is also a model among the younger generation.

Meng Qing himself sighed to himself.

It's just that guy just now......

She was skeptical, "Zhu Zhu, what is the relationship between that person and you......"

Lu Yuzhu's face obviously became a little pale, and a trace of pain could be seen on her face.

She was depressed in her heart, but she still spoke: "Don't hide it, my first stop in business is the secluded capital of the Jin Kingdom." At that time, he was young and vigorous, and after earning the first pot of gold, he opened his first restaurant in the Jin Kingdom, and I met him by chance.

In business, he took good care of me, and he had feelings for me as soon as he came and went. He promised me that after I got married to my parents, he asked me to wait for Ming Media to marry him into his family and marry him. However, how could the eunuchs of his family look down on me, the daughter of a merchant who showed up, his mother learned of my existence, preemptively set up a family affair for him, and sent people to interfere with my business from time to time.

At first, I had expectations for him, but it wasn't until he married the daughter of the Xue family that I knew that I would never have anything to do with him again in my life. In a fit of rage, I sold the restaurant, took the silver taels his mother gave me, and made a comeback elsewhere, doing business all the way to Yujing......"

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, rubbing the jade cup with the orchid in his hand.

Pei Jiuzhi actually had a relationship with her......

Meng Qing listened carefully, thought for a while, then moved over and hugged her, and said, "Then have you ever thought about looking for other men?" The man in my Jade Capital City is not as bad as the man in the Youdu of the Jin Kingdom! ”

"Of course there is! The old lady will not be widowed for this kind of person for a lifetime! ”

As he spoke, tears rolled in Lu Yuzhu's eyes.

"My elder brother Meng Zhiyan, the son of King Yong, is good, and I am the captain of the forbidden army, He Yixuan, all of whom are talented, but they are much better looking than that black-faced monster!"

"The ...... of King Yong"

"What's wrong?"

"I seem to have seen him, last time he brought a woman to Qianjinlou to eat and drink, but there are other sons and nobles, it's not very unusual."

“…… Woman? But Shi Huan, the daughter of the Ministry of Works? ”

"No, I've seen Shi Huan, and the woman he brought should be Fan Lixian, the concubine of the commander of the soldiers and horses in Xicheng."

"Fan Lixian ......"

The more Meng Qing listened, the more wrong it became.

Fan Lixian is a former princess companion, and sometimes she will tell her a few words, which is a pity......

Suddenly, while the two were still looking at the night scene, a scream suddenly came from downstairs, accompanied by a loud noise.

Looking down from the tall building, a group of officers and soldiers like a long line broke in from the end of the street, and the sound of military boots resounded in the sky.

Meng Qing and the others looked down curiously.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know ......"

Xiao Yan frowned, and hinted that Zhong Xuan beside him went down to inquire about the situation.

"Look, something bad is happening......"

Meng Qing muttered to herself.

The door of the private room was wide open, and at this time, a group of people passed by outside the door, and the leader took a deep look into the private room, and suddenly stopped.

Xiao Chuji saw Xiao Yan sitting firmly on the felt, hooked his lips lightly, and said hello meaningfully: "It's a coincidence that I was able to meet Emperor Xiao here." ”

He remained silent.

Xiao Chuji saw that he didn't care about himself and didn't want to give a word, so he became angry and walked away.

Meng Qing turned around to look, and Xiao Chuji left.

"Who was it just now?"

Xiao Yan sat there fixedly, "It's just a pug, don't care." ”

“……”

What pug speaks human language?

Meng Qing really said that his mouth was very poisonous.

But in a moment, Zhong Xuan came back, and he bowed to Xiao Yan and Meng Qing.

"Your Majesty, Your Lord, someone died on Ningyang Street."

“！！！”

Several people were stunned.

"How can this be ......a good New Year?"

Before Meng Qing finished speaking, Zhong Xuan continued: "This time it was Shi Huan, the daughter of the Ministry of Works, who died. ”

"What?"

"Shi Huan?"

Meng Qing and Xiao Yan glanced at each other, both hiding disbelief.

"Isn't Fang Cai Shihuan with my brother? How could she die? ”

"I heard that the two died after they parted ways."

Lu Yuzhu was in disbelief, "Oh my God! How is this ...... Four noble ladies died in January......"

"Four?"

Meng Qing was looking for this incident in her head, and she remembered that she had reported the incident to her when she recalled Huai'an's entry into the palace.

Originally, only three died, one was Liu Yiyi, the daughter of Shanglin Zuo Jianzheng, one was Fan Lixian, the daughter of the commander of Xicheng soldiers and horses, and the other was Jiang Lianyue, the daughter of Shaoqing of Honglu Temple.

This murderer kills people in no order, the first three are former princesses, but this Shi Huan has never had anything to do with the other three......
