On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Huo Changhe went straight to the point.

"Has anyone dressed strangely come to buy wine in the past two days?"

The man said without hesitation: "Yes."

The young man panicked, and the man said, "Don't blame me, Your Majesty or Princess. He really didn't know because it was already late at night. I had already asked him to go home."

"This person was wearing a black robe and a hood on his head that covered his face. I couldn't see his features, but from the sound of his voice, he was a man, not particularly young, but not very old either, probably in his early thirties."

"Other than that, there are no other obvious features. Everything is covered up tightly." The man thought for a moment, "But, based on my judgment, he should not drink often."

Yan Ruyu was surprised: "How do you know?"

"Princess, you don't know that I am a winemaker. I know more about wine and am more perceptive than others."

"This person didn't smell of alcohol, and he didn't look around when he came in. He didn't have any interest in alcohol. He didn't have a local accent, so he wasn't familiar with the shop."

"He said he wanted to buy the most famous wine I had. After receiving the wine, he didn't ask about the year, taste, or aroma. He just asked for the price and paid."

"All these feelings made me conclude that this person probably doesn't like alcohol, and he must have other reasons for buying alcohol."

Yan Ruyu listened to him carefully and nodded: "What you said makes sense."

Huo Changhe asked: "Do you know anyone from the Cheng family?"

"The Cheng family? The Cheng family that sells cloth?" The man smiled. "I'm not familiar with them. I occasionally hear my wife mention them. Mrs. Cheng and my wife were close friends before they got married."

Yan Ruyu raised her eyebrows slightly: "What happened next?"

"Later? Later we each got married. We would occasionally get together and exchange gifts during the New Year. However, everyone had their own lives to live, so we didn't see each other as much as before."

It turned out to be the case.

"Sorry for disturbing you," Yan Ruyu said, "I'll take my leave now."

"Your Highness, Princess, take care." The man walked them to the door and suddenly remembered something. "Princess, if I'm not mistaken, that person has a honey-like fragrance."

Yan Ruyu stopped and asked: "Mihexiang?"

She knew this kind of incense. Huo Zhongmao could make it and it was also available in the incense shop. This kind of incense was a precious product. The raw materials used to make it were expensive, and the cost was high, so the finished product was much more expensive.

Take Huo Zhongmao's spice shop for example. Incense of this level must be registered before it is sold.

With the financial resources of the Cheng family at that time, they would not buy this kind of incense.

Then, the fragrance on the great master's body was not acquired from the Cheng family.

This information is important.

"Thank you."

Leaving the wine shop, Huo Changhe looked grim.

"No one in the Cheng family is a good person. Madam Cheng even wants to use us to make trouble for the couple in the wine shop."

Yan Ruyu was also a little angry. Time was precious, and Mrs. Cheng deliberately said some news with personal purposes.

"We'll talk about it later. It's a good thing that I accidentally know the scent of the great wizard."

"There aren't many shops that sell honey and incense, so I should be able to find it."

Huo Changhe and Yan Ruyu acted separately, she went to see Huo Zhongmao, and Huo Changhe went to Qian's spice shop.

At the same time, he asked the owner of Qian's spice shop to invite the owner of the honey and incense shop.

Huo Zhongmao was in the shop. When he saw Yan Ruyu coming, he knew that something important happened. When he heard that she wanted to check the purchase record of Mihexiang, he took it immediately.

Yan Ruyu checked them one by one and found that most of them were bought before the New Year, and there were none recently.

Although this kind of incense is expensive, it is also prohibited. It is fine to buy a box and use it for two months.

Huo Zhongmao knows everything about these customers who buy high-quality spices, including their aroma preferences, consumption levels, etc.

Yan Ruyu listened around and didn't find the person she was looking for.

These women have lived here for generations and have some family background. According to common sense, they are not likely to have any connection with the great wizard.

"Princess, besides the people who buy the fragrance, there is another kind of people who will also be stained with this fragrance."

Yan Ruyu raised her eyes to look at him: "Tell me about it."

"The one who makes the incense."

Yan Ruyu's heart moved and an idea suddenly popped up in her mind.

The person who makes incense, Xia Miao from Liujiazhuang, has many complex scents on his body.

She said her sister ran a spice shop, but so far she has not been found.

If her sister is Yu who came back to life from the dead, and Yu once drew the map in "Water Flowing Through Governance", she should be related to Mr. Mo.

Taohua is also Mr. Mo's person. She once mentioned the saint. The saint taught her to control people with fine needles. She used this method to control the abbot.

The great wizard used this method to control Cheng Fengyao, who did not want to get married.

As long as we find that shop, we can verify whether that "sister" is Yu.

If so, it all connects and makes sense.

Yan Ruyu suppressed her impatience and said, "Go find Song Ping and Sister Rong, and ask them to put aside their current tasks for the time being. Make use of the connections we have made with our guests these days, ask them for help, and do your best to find out useful information."

"Whoever provides useful information will be covered by me for the store's expenses for the year."

Huo Zhongmao nodded immediately and went out to do his work.

Many people also came to Huo Changhe's side. The owners of various incense shops, even if they were not from the Qian family, gave face to the Qian family. All those who sold honey and incense came.

After checking and looking everywhere, Huo Changhe intuitively felt that the person he was looking for was not here.

A shopkeeper named Li hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, I have some news, but I don't know if I can tell you."

"You can say it, it's okay if you're wrong."

"Two days ago, a peddler came to my shop and bought some expensive spices. I asked him with a smile why he bought these spices. He said that a big business came. A concubine from a wealthy family wanted to use some good spices, but she was afraid that her mistress would blame her, so she didn't dare to go to the big spice shop, so she asked him to buy some."

After Shopkeeper Li finished speaking, another Shopkeeper Su also stood up and said, "Now that you mention it, I remember that he also bought one from me."

The two of them became a pair, and their spices combined formed a complete fragrance recipe.

It is the fragrance of honey.

Huo Changhe immediately felt that this peddler was unusual.

"What does this person look like? What are his characteristics?"

"He was an ordinary-looking man, in his thirties, nothing special," recalled Li. "He was wearing old, but clean clothes. He was pushing a small truck and selling the usual items."

Shopkeeper Li suddenly remembered: "Oh, by the way, this person has a limp in his right leg."

Huo Changhe immediately thought of the footprints he had copied: "A little lame?"

"Yes, that's right," Shopkeeper Li answered affirmatively, "At that time, I saw that he was having difficulty in moving, so I asked the clerk to help him."

Shopkeeper Su also nodded: "Yes, that's true."

Huo Changhe went outside and ordered, "Go, invite the princess, and hurry."

The men hurried to look for Yan Ruyu, but encountered an accident on the way.
