[The seventy-first year of the Great Qiankang Yuan, March 28, noon, Chang'an City Deyue Tower]

Last night was a spring cold, but today is a warm sun.

This weather is cold and warm, cloudy and uncertain, just like life, ups and downs, and it is up to people?

Today, the people of Chang'an who got up early to go out, saw that the sun outside the house was so bright, even the spring breeze was rippling with smoke and warmth, all of them were happy and joyful, everyone met the same, God treated us really well, yesterday it was so cold that people shivered, today it finally became so warm!

At this time, if there is really a lord of the sun and moon in the sky who controls the warmth and coldness of the world, he can't help but sneer when he sees this.

Imagine, if it weren't for yesterday's strange cold, how would you be grateful for today's warm sunshine?

But if you want to show grace to your subordinates, you must first beat it, and the wisdom that all mortals in the lower realm understand, can the gods in heaven do?

And today's Chang'an people, in addition to the cold and warm weather, there is one more major event that happened in the capital:

Today's sixth prince of Long Live Lord, King Li Zuo of Han is dead!

......

......

Early this morning, Emperor Li Chongsheng issued several holy decrees in succession.

The first holy decree was issued to the Ministry of Rites, and the ceremonial officials agreed on the posthumous title according to the life of Li Zuo, the king of Han, and posthumously presented the king of Han as the Prince of Qizhu.

The second holy decree was issued to the palace of the king of Jin, presided over by Li Ci, the king of Jin, and the funeral of King Han was organized in conjunction with the Ministry of Rites and the Tsing Yi Wei Luan Ceremony Division.

The third holy decree was issued to Tsing Yi Wei, in addition to the emperor's great encouragement to the people who handled the case, the relevant people and criminals were also dealt with, the main culprit Mingyue, sentenced to Ling Chi, the second murderer Yang Xiaoxiao, beheaded, Cuiyun Lou miscellaneous servants, beheaded, all the women in Cuiyun Building, gave Bai Aya to commit suicide, and the rest of the men were all in exile.

With the successive issuance of the emperor's holy decrees, the news of the death of Li Zuo, the king of Han, spread to all corners of Chang'an City one by one.

As a result, all the departments and departments of the court and the various squares and buildings of the people, gradually learned:

The famous "King of Fun" - Li Zuo, the king of Han, died suddenly in the Cuiyun Tower of Chang'an City!

As soon as the news came out, the government and the opposition were shocked!

No matter who it was, after hearing about this, they were so shocked that their mouths opened wide and they couldn't close their mouths for a long time.

And what makes people even more surprised is that King Han actually died in the hands of a Qinglou woman, this Qinglou woman is the top brand of Cuiyunlou who is famous for half of Chang'an City, Mingyue girl!

And Miss Mingyue, the reason for killing King Han was that she had been secretly in love with King Han for a long time, but because she was too affectionate and couldn't get King Han's love, she actually killed King Han brutally!

Whether it was the ministers of the second rank of the court, or the cloth people on the streets of Chang'an, after hearing the causes and consequences of this case, they were all shocked to open their mouths even more, and after another half a day, they still couldn't close their mouths.

......

......

At three o'clock in the afternoon, when the sky was clear and the weather was warm, in the Deyue Tower of Chang'an City, there was a pair of diners sitting at a square table in the atrium eating together. The two diners were both in their fifties, one was very short and stocky, the other was tall and thin, and both were dressed in gray leather robes, which looked like two wealthy merchants in the city.

The two of them were facing away from each other, and it was the wooden platform in the atrium of the Deyue Tower. At this time, on the high platform, there is a pair of two people who look like father and daughter, one sits and one stands, the man sits on a low stool, plays a huqin, and makes a melodious sound, and the woman stands in the center of the high platform, lightly opens her lips, slowly interprets her singing voice, but she doesn't know what kind of song she sings.

At this time, all the diners in the audience were talking while drinking, and the restaurant was full of noisy and noisy sounds, and few people paid attention to what kind of song the two people on the high stage were singing.

The two businessmen, one fat and one thin, were in this noisy restaurant, so they naturally had no intention of listening to music. The stocky man raised his glass, touched a glass with the tall and thin man, and asked:

"Old Fang, have you ever heard that one of our great princes died in Cuiyun Tower the night before yesterday?"

The tall and thin man was amazed and said, "Is there such a thing?" Old Wu, don't fool me!"

Humpty Dumpty's face was smug, and he said, "Can I tell you about this kind of thing?" That's my eldest nephew of the Ministry of Rites, who told me personally this morning."

The tall and thin man suddenly became interested, and he hurriedly asked, "Old Wu, tell me quickly, which prince died, how could he die in Cuiyun Tower?"

Humpty Dumpty raised his glass and took a sip, looked around him a few more times, and after making sure that there were no people around him who resembled Tsing Yiwei's secret agent, he whispered:

"The prince who died is the sixth prince of the current Long Live Lord, King Han! As for how he died in Cuiyun Tower? Old Fang, guess what!"

The tall and thin man also glanced around him a few times, and after making sure that the environment they were in at the moment was extremely noisy and difficult for others to hear their conversation, he cautiously guessed:

"King Han died in Cuiyun Tower, he won't be a prostitute who stayed late at night, overindulged in lust, and died of losing his yang, right?"

"Hey......" Humpty Dumpty waved his hand and smiled:

"This morning, the holy decree of the Long Live Lord has come down, saying that King Han was killed by a Qinglou woman!"

"Who is she?"

"Old Fang, guess what!"

"I can't guess!

"If I told you, this meal today?"

"I'll please, I'll please!"

The short and fat old man took a large piece of meat and put it in his mouth, and before he could finish chewing it, he immediately drank a large sip of wine, as if he felt that once someone invited him, the meat in his mouth and the wine in his throat would be more mellow and delicious. He said triumphantly:

"Let me tell you, the murderer who killed King Han is none other than the top brand of Cuiyun Tower, Mingyue!"

"Miss Mingyue, she'...... How could she kill King Han?"

"Old Fang, guess again!"

"Oh! Don't guess, don't guess! You're going to sell Guanzi again, today's drink, you will pay the bill in a while!"

"Okay, good!" When the short and fat man heard that the tall and thin man refused to pay the bill, he immediately did not dare to delay any longer, and he hurriedly told the tall and thin old man all the reasons why Mingyue killed people. Naturally, what he said added fuel and vinegar to the plot discussed between Shen Huan and Yang Wenyuan......

After hearing this, the tall and thin old man sighed:

"A good girl with a bright moon would turn into hatred because of love, and kill a prince by mistake! cough...... This King Han is also really, since Mingyue likes him, he will marry Mingyue back to the palace, it's a big deal to be a concubine, isn't it a big deal?

The short and fat old man waved his hand again and again, and said disapprenously:

"Do you think King Han is you! As a prince, how can he marry a woman from a green house and enter the door? If this matter spreads, how can you let him be a prince in the future?!"

"What's wrong with the girl in the Qinglou? The woman in the Qinglou is also a person, I think, none of them are worse than other women! Especially the girl Mingyue, that looks, it's just ...... At the end of last year, I asked Mother Yang there to bring a message to Mingyue! At that time, I was willing to pay 500 taels of silver to buy Mingyue for one night, but unfortunately, after the Mingyue girl saw me, she still refused to ......."

"Five hundred taels to buy Mingyue for one night?...... The short and fat old man touched his belly and laughed: "You are also stupid! Don't you know? There is a new top brand in Cuiyun Building, called 'Jiaojiao' girl, she only needs fifty taels of silver!"

"What's the matter, that delicate girl, have you tried?"

The short and fat old man said even more triumphantly, "I tried it on the first night Jiaojiao came......! That's a ...... It's the best in the world! I think even the fairies in the sky can't compare to her! That figure, that look, that voice, that ...... on the bed."

Seeing that the short and fat old man kept boasting, the tall and thin old man said impatiently:

"You are a rare bird! Lao Tzu is also queuing up in Cuiyun Building, but Lao Tzu is not as fast as you!"

"Lao Fang, you have been queuing for more than ten days, and you haven't had Jiaojiao's turn once?"

The tall and thin man gave the short and fat man a blank look, and was so angry that he stopped talking.

"Then you didn't go looking for Mingyue again?"

"I found it, I hate that old bitch, I actually said that Miss Yue was injured and couldn't pick up customers! I see, she is looking for an excuse to prevaricate me, cough...... Now, Mingyue is about to die, but I haven't found a chance!"

The tall and thin old man then asked again: "Old Wu, do you know what kind of sentence Miss Mingyue was sentenced to?"

"Guess...... Oooh...... According to the will of the Lord of Long Live Lord, Mingyue, as the main culprit, was sentenced to death by Ling Chi, and the day of execution has been set, just three days later!"

"Ling Chi?!" The tall and thin old man's eyes widened, revealing an expression that was half shocked and half frightened, and said, "Oh my God, this is too cruel, isn't it?" Mingyue ...... It's a girl......, after all! She's still a top name!"

"Long live the lord doesn't care if she is the first card or the tail card! Mingyue killed the son of the long live lord, can the long live lord easily spare her? According to the rules, Mingyue's entire family will be beheaded by the whole family, and even her nine clans will be subjected to the Zhulian! Long live the lord only killed her, and he is already very kind to her!"

"Mingyue, my Mingyue, God is so unfair, why do you have to die, and die so miserably......" When the tall and thin old man heard this, he actually broke out and wept bitterly.

"Hey, old man, be quiet, don't cry!" The short and fat old man pushed the tall and thin man, and looked around cautiously, he saw that the tall and thin man was crying incessantly, and his face was already full of tears, he couldn't help but shake his head, and had to comfort:

"I said Lao Fang, you are not a small person, how can you cry? That Mingyue is not dead, it's about your birds! Big deal, I'm a brother, after you finish paying the wine bill, I'll take you to Huamanlou again! Now, although Cuiyun Building is closed, isn't Huamanlou next to it still there? Maybe there's also a 'Jiaojiao' ...... there."

After the short and fat old man said the word "Jiaojiao", he suddenly felt a feeling of suffocation in his chest for no reason, and the latter word "Jiao" couldn't be said. He desperately opened his mouth wide, wanted to speak, wanted to breathe, but still couldn't breathe, he only felt that someone seemed to have inserted an ice spike into his chest, and the ice thorn seemed to be silently inserted into his heart, making him suddenly feel a piercing Ling Han, that chill spread from his chest to his body, gradually making him unable to speak, unable to breathe, until he was confused and fell to the ground......

"Old Wu, old Wu, what's wrong with you!" Seeing that the short and fat old man suddenly opened his mouth wide, but he couldn't speak, and gradually fell down, the tall and thin old man who was already teary-eyed immediately stood up and couldn't help but exclaim.

As the short and fat man fell to the ground, the tall and thin man exclaimed, and there was a sudden chaos in the atrium of the Deyue Tower. Everyone didn't pay attention, but a white-haired man with a long sword on his back sneered twice, threw down a silver ingot, and then walked out of the door and walked away......
