Early in the morning, at midnight.

Yesterday, he went to listen to the rain building, and he went to the Lin Mansion early in the morning to ask Lin Wen to borrow Su Mu to go together, and soon after leaving, he retreated from the early dynasty at the beginning of the morning, and Song Xun was worried about last night's incident and took Sun Fu to the Lin Mansion in a hurry to explore, and it happened that a few people could avoid it.

"I think it's the Song Governor's Mansion. Lin Wen saluted.

Song Xun walked with Lin Wen to the courtyard, and said as he walked: "Has there been a carriage theft in the house recently?"

Lin Wen was still smiling, but he was a little uneasy in his heart, the carriage that he drove out of the house yesterday...... Before he knew how much he noticed, Lin Wen asked rhetorically, "Why did Governor Song say this?"

Song Xun stared at the hesitation in Lin Wen's eyes for a moment, the two of them just walked to the atrium at this time, Song Xun stopped and sat in front of the jade case in the courtyard, and the subordinates also retreated after serving the tea fruit, leaving only two people in the courtyard to hear the messy wind.

"There is no need to be nervous outside the forester, I have counted the people in the house recently, and I am on official business and come to check. ”

"The prefect came, and it was really hasty, if there is a contemptible person who can help, just open his mouth. ”

Song Xun said bluntly: "I saw that the carriage in the house was similar to that driven by the suspect, and I don't know how the forester would explain it." ”

"There are only a few styles of carriages in Bianjing. ”

"Yesterday the list was released, and the officials searched for the prisoners throughout the city, and if there were carriages running around, they would definitely be investigated, and I concluded that the carriages that appeared in the Chaoxiao Pavilion in the east of the city did not come from the west of the city or outside the city. And the rich family closer to Chaoxiao Pavilion is only Gaofu, Taichang Zhengqing's Xu Mansion and Guifu, Taichang Zhengqing is my old acquaintance, and his consistent style is to be cautious in his words and deeds, and he will never order people to go out of the city at this time, in summary, I have to suspect your mansion. ”

Song Xun's deep gaze touched Lin Wen's eyes, like a wolf staring at its prey.

After listening to the tea, Lin Wen said unhurriedly: "I don't know what the carriage looks like, and whether it is from a worse family?" Although Your Excellency said that it was methodical and reasonable, but there was no corroboration but it was concluded that the carriage was produced by our government, and besides, we are just a cheap businessman, who can neither lift a pen nor a sword, how can we move an official, and what is the motive? I hope Your Excellency will know clearly. ”

Song Xun frowned.

"Retire, I will come back to the door again in the future. ”

Lin Wen ordered loudly: "Come and see off the guests." ”

After Song Xun left, Lin Wen revealed his sadness and paced back and forth in the court alone. And Song Xun, who came out of the gate of the Lin Mansion, was even more displeased, and said to Sun Fu in a cold voice: "How can the dangerous things done leave no traces, check for me!"

Su Mu had accompanied Lin Wen and Liu Yibai before, and he was familiar with the road, so naturally he led the way. Feng Ci also followed, and along the way, he carefully taught Su Mu, who didn't like words, how to talk nonsense.

Although it was a sunny day today, because the window was not covered last night, Feng Ci fell asleep with some wind, and when he went out again, he put on a thick cotton cloth and purple jacket, and his face was not very good.

Can listen to the rain building is a prosperous place, the west of the city is the top of the prosperous place, there is the largest teahouse in the capital, facing south is the Goolan tile house, the street is the car is like flowing water and the horse is like a dragon every day. The women who come and go on the road are more beautiful than if they have a few money, wearing bright colored half-arms, dragging light silk skirts, few brocade straight curtains, pearls and jade hairpins, and the most poor ones should also be decorated with two grass flowers between the temples.

He turned his head slightly to look at the speech, the purple genus is an elegant color, if there is no more decoration, it is more plain, like a mouthy attendant.

"It's a shame that Qiao Yan is still asleep, if I see you dressed like this, I have to say a few sarcastic words. He retracted his gaze and said.

The words are listless, "The person is not there, but the sound is still there." ”

At the entrance of the street, Feng Ci bought two meat buns with Li Siniang as usual, warmed them in his hands, and then went to the teahouse, and said to the servant before leaving: "Last month, the Gongzi High School of Zheng County Zhixian County, whose name is Qihua, is twenty-three years old, I don't know if it is terrible or the world is declining." ”

He nodded, and it was a matter of course.

The teahouse where she resigned was next to Tingyulou, it was when there were many people, she ordered a pot of Shuangjing Baiya and sat alone in the second-floor private room, the most important thing is to look out the window and see Tingyulou.

Listening to the rain tower hanging red sandalwood carved plaque, red satin gold curtains on both sides, Qi Qi and Su Mu have arrived in front of the Zhu Gate of Tingyu Building, Su Mu slowly stepped behind the Yan Yan, there is a bustard in front of the door to greet over.

He is dressed in white and has half a bundle of hair, as if he does not eat the fireworks of the world.

"I don't know who this guest is......" Zhou Niang asked after looking at the guest.

Su Mu said: "This is the son of the magistrate of Zheng County, and he was invited to the Mid-Autumn Festival ten days later, and he came to Bianjing early." ”

Zhou Niang smiled and bent her eyes, and said tentatively: "I said that I have never seen such a Peugeot son before, is it here to see someone or ......?"

"I heard that the Chan'er girl here stroked a good piano, I don't know if I can have this ear blessing today. As he spoke, he stuffed a lot of silver money into Zhou Niang.

Zhou Niang took the money and said, "What do you call your son?" A hand beckoned someone to come, "Take this boy to find a room." ”

"My surname is Qi. ”

Qi Gongzi waited for a moment. ”

Su Mu followed the servant and the person to go inside, listening to the pavilion and pond of the rain building around the atrium, there is a circle of pavilions, all kinds of glazed tiles shine in the bright sun, there is white jade paving under the feet, flowers are clustered along the way, thousands of trees compete for glory, you can see the red carp playing lotus in the pond on the stone bridge, the breeze blows the water and the autumn waves rise, and the ripples seem to be able to swing the heart. To the inner room first smell the fragrant aroma, but do not see the furnace, lift the heavy curtains, through the Danqing screen, only to see the pipa Yaoqin, there is a white jade case inlaid with gold beads in the ice of the ice, it is more extravagant than the Chaoxiao Pavilion, the beautiful scenery of the good day, it is really only a beautiful woman. I was so angry.

Since he left, Zhou Niang first asked people to look for Chan'er, and called a lot of people to keep an eye on him.

It didn't take long for Chan'er to come to the inner room, first bowed her head and smiled and greeted the servant.

He glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally.

In fact, this Chan'er girl is not beautiful, I don't know if it is because she sees the words every day, and she has no interest in such a face with such fine facial features, but she wears a Shi Qingluo skirt, which has some temperament, which matches the surrounding scene. If Liu Yibai had been allowed to see the "world" with Lin Wen everywhere, he would not have made a fuss.

"Does Qi Gongzi have anything to listen to?" Chan'er asked.

He smiled lightly: "Just listen to what you like to play." ”

Chan'er smiled shyly.

The early dynasty retreated, Zhao Huai and Zhao Kanchu also came to listen to the rain building one after another, and they couldn't see it since they entered the inner room.

Zhao Kanchu came here for the first time, and he just followed Zhao Huai, first went to the inner room to take a look, felt that the occlusion was inappropriate, and said to Zhao Huai: "Seventh brother, it's a little hot today, and it's boring here, why don't you sit on the second floor?"

The second floor of the Listening Rain Building is an open-air loose table, and there are no guests too early, and there are towering trees to shelter it, which is indeed very suitable for the weather.

Although Zhao Huai didn't want to allow it, he didn't want to make Zhao Kanchu suspicious, so he had to respond.

Listen to the rain in the mountains and rocks surrounded by a lot, the two of them have been blocked by the scenery from time to time since they entered the door, until the two of them sat down and entered the eyes of Feng Ci again, Feng Ci began to feel that something was wrong, this table is facing the window on the second floor of the teahouse where Feng Ci is located, as long as Zhao Kan Chu and Zhao Huai look sideways, you can see the scene of Feng Ci eating meat and tasting tea.

The teahouse at this hour was overcrowded, and Feng Ci had to stare at the servants to make trouble, so he couldn't leave this window, and he felt a little uncomfortable holding the meat bun for a while. After thinking about it, I thought that Zhao Kanchu might have deliberately sat here, and there might be someone watching the guests near the window, thinking about paying more attention.

"How is the ninth brother doing recently? I always heard that something was going on in your house before. Zhao Huai said first.

Zhao Kanchu didn't want to mention the resignation to others, so he only greeted: "The day before yesterday was all good." ”

Zhao Huai didn't ask, and said: "In a few days, it will be the sacrifice day of Concubine Wu, and I have often remembered how well the concubine treated me when she was young, and I will go to the temple to offer incense together." It's a pity that the Queen Mother still has a breath, so she can't let this festival exist in the palace. In the end, when it came to the Queen Mother, Zhao Huai's voice was very low, and he was afraid that others would listen to it.

Concubine Wu is Zhao Kanchu's biological mother, Zhao Kanchu froze for a moment, and said lightly: "Things in the palace are inevitably involuntary. ”

"The ninth brother thinks very openly, and it's okay. Zhao Huaiwu drank a glass of wine by himself, and Zhao Kanchu thought about it and drank it together.

Miss Chan'er stopped playing a song, clapped her hands perfunctorily, and asked Su Mu to withdraw.

"One more song. ”

Su Mu came out to chat with a few people guarding the door, he was not good at talking, but when he came, he received a lot of "teachings" on the way, so he talked for a while with his own understanding.

"The master wants to listen to the music by himself. ”

"The weather was perfect today. ”

"Miss Chan'er's piano sound is exquisite, which can be described as a string and a pillar of Sihuanian. ”

A few subordinates glanced at him and nodded, Su Mu really didn't want to say anything more.

Again, he had to say.

"It's not fun to stand here, so why don't I invite you to have a drink. As he spoke, he took out the money.

At first, a few people were reluctant, but Su Mu only said that it was okay to sit at the table next to him and drink a little, thinking that it was to not hinder his master's Spring Festival. It's not too far away, and I'm not afraid of making a fuss, so I drank it half-pushed and half-pushed.

She stared at a few figures outside the window and let her pass, and gave Chan'er a glass of wine first. Qinglou is rare to see such a son, Chan'er is very willing to sit over and drink with the girl, after drinking, she raised her eyes to look at the girl, and drowned in the tender eyes. With one hand, he took out the cloth strip he had prepared and strangled it neatly on Chan'er's neck, Chan'er couldn't make a sound in fright, and struggled for a while before she moved.

The girl was worried that she fainted, and after a while, she tied the long strip of cloth on the beam and hung Miss Chan'er on it.

After dealing with it properly, the servants left, Su Mu saw that he hurriedly followed, and a few subordinates drank the rest of the wine while waiting for the girl inside to come out and go in to rectify.

It wasn't until the wine was drunk that the girl had already gone out of the gate of Tingyu Building, and a few people pushed the door to see, only to find that Miss Chan'er was hanging in the beam!

A few subordinates thought of several reasons, but they didn't dare to move, panicked and withdrew the wine and food on the table where they were sitting, and then went to invite Zhou Niang to come over, Zhou Niang scolded when she came: "Tell you to stare at it, the more you star, the more trouble will be! Leave your group of wastes out of Tingyulou and live less than fifteen." After arriving, he hurriedly glanced at the door and said: "This room is sealed first, don't make a noise, don't let me hear this in anyone's mouth, wait until you ask the above, and then deal with it." ”

There was a flurry in the courtroom.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Kanchu got up and looked down.

Zhao Huai also got up when Zhao Kanchu got up, and it seemed to be an ordinary flick of his sleeves, but in fact, he shook the medicine powder in Zhao Kanchu's cup.

Seeing that Zhao Huai's hand stayed in front of that lamp for a while, Feng Ci, who was watching from a distance, thought: It's broken, it's broken, it's going to be an accident.
