Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Wen Qing, who was wearing a green shirt, and a man wearing a bamboo hat walked out of Caiwei Tower together.

A breeze carrying the autumn breeze came slowly, blowing up the veil hanging from the bamboo hat. Underneath it was a familiar face. Gu Yue tightened his expression, not revealing any flaws, and smoothly moved his eyes past it, as if he had never stayed on that person for a moment.

The two groups of people staggered each other, and after a brief intersection, they gradually moved away.

……

Wen Qing helped the man in the bamboo hat onto an inconspicuous carriage and watched him drive away.

The guard who had been waiting in the alley came forward and handed over the cloak: "Sir, the carriage is ready."

Wen Qing put on his cloak and lowered his eyes, thinking about something.

Seeing this, the guard stepped aside and said nothing more.

Wen Qing stood at the entrance of the alley for a long time, and suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked in the direction of Caiwei Tower.

"Who just entered Caiwei Tower?" he asked.

"There are four carriages entering Caiwei Tower. They are Mr. Chen from Hongyun Money House, Lord Lu from the Honglu Temple, Zhen Suhang from Hangdou Bookstore, and the young master of the Zhanshi Mansion and his elder brother." said the guard.

"Who was that person that passed by me?"

"It's Zhen Suhang and his group from Hangdou Bookstore. Including Boss Su, there are four other strangers who seem to have never been seen in Luoyang. The driver didn't follow them in."

"What's going on in the bookstore recently?" Wen Qing raised his eyes and looked at the glittering glazed tiles of Caiwei Tower.

that person……

He has always been sensitive to sight, and the man seemed to glance at him when he passed by him.

Being watched was not uncommon, but the feeling he had was completely different from before.

It was a familiar look. He seemed to have seen that pair of eyes before. A pair of innocent, calm, but cunning eyes...

"I don't know. Hangdou Bookstore is not under surveillance." The guard replied.

"...Well. Let's go back home first." Wen Qing glanced at the sky.

The azure sky was gradually dyed with orange clouds, and it was getting late.

……

The banquet for five people included ten dishes and two soups, all of which were famous delicacies from all over Northern Qin.

Gu Yue…saw fried chicken inside.

Zhen Suhang obviously did it on purpose, and laughed loudly: "Boss Gu, try it quickly, what is the difference between the fried golden phoenix from Caiweilou, the world's famous restaurant, and your golden steak?"

Fried Golden Phoenix! What a bold name!

Did Her Majesty the Queen and Her Majesty the Queen Mother agree?

Gu Yue took a bite of fried chicken first.

They have completely mastered the method, after all, it is not difficult. The crust is indeed crispy, but it always feels weird.

How does it feel? It’s like a foreigner making scrambled eggs with tomatoes strictly according to a recipe. Every step is correct, but it just doesn’t have that flavor.

Lack of soul.

Gu Yue breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that even the most famous buildings in the world can sometimes be outshined by such a small restaurant!

The ten dishes are: Jinling crispy roast duck, sea cucumber crispy hibiscus crab, red oil autumn chicken shreds, glazed cicada wing crucian carp, butterfly powder ant jade core dumpling, Yongwanghou baked yokan, sugar vermilion crispy roasted pork belly, green mountains and water reflecting burning maple, window lotus root and lotus rhyme cold dish, and golden soup white jade cup. It is a perfect auspicious meaning.

The two soups are: the refreshing five-finger peach and seafood bone soup, and the spicier pepper-flavored lamb soup.

Gu Yue wanted to laugh strongly.

"What's wrong?" Gu Xu turned around and asked quietly.

"It's ok to give meat dishes exaggerated names, but the vegetarian dishes are really trying to be elegant." Gu Yue said, "It's just stir-fried rapeseed with a few red peppers, and it's called something like Green Mountains and Water Reflecting Burning Maple..."

His shoulders shook with laughter.

But he couldn't smile as soon as the dish entered his mouth. The natural and pollution-free ingredients, coupled with the cooking skills of Caiweilou, which was famous in Northern Qin, were really 10,000 times better than ordinary home-cooked dishes. Moreover, the vegetables seemed to be fried with lard, which was so fragrant that it made his tongue fall off.

This name...is very worthy of its name!

The Jinling roast duck was especially delicious, much better than the eighty-yuan half-duck brand-name duck he had eaten in the capital. The duck meat was just the right amount of firmness, the skin was crispy and fragrant, and there were even rolls and sweet noodle sauce.

I'd rather eat myself to death!

Gu Yue put Wen Qing's matter behind him for a moment and ate his meal with big mouthfuls. He had been on the road for several days and had eaten dry food. Although Gu Xu occasionally gave him game to eat, he would just grill it with some basil and nothing else.

After devouring the huge meal in no time and satisfying his hungry stomach, Gu Yue put down the bowl of soup and wiped his mouth slowly with a handkerchief.

"It's like this, Boss Su. I just heard you say that your Hangdou Bookstore controls the intelligence chain. I just want to ask you something."

"Since we are partners, I won't tell you unless it's too important." Zhen Suhang said with a smile.

"Have you heard of Lingfeng Pavilion?" Gu Yue asked.

"No, that's not the case. What are the three words? Write them down and I'll find out for you." Zhen Suhang said.

Gu Yue shook his head: "I don't know either, I only know the name. Oh, their members may have tattoos of this shape on their little fingers."

He dipped his fingers in the tea and drew the pattern on the table.

Zhen Suhang frowned and thought.

After changing the cup of tea, Gu Yue drank it while flirting with Gu Xu.

Gu Xu indicated with his eyes: There is also Baoshun Pharmacy and the Yu family’s affairs.

Gu Yue frowned and replied: Got it, got it.

"I feel like this pattern looks familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen it. I'll keep an eye on it," Zhen Suhang said.

This answer was within Gu Xu's expectations.

"Then, does Boss Su know Baoshun Pharmacy?" Gu Yue asked again.

"I know that!" Zhen Suhang looked very happy. He just boasted that he had an intelligence network, but when someone asked him, he didn't know! How embarrassing!

"This Baoshun Pharmacy is the largest pharmacy in Northern Qin. In recent years, it has quickly squeezed out several large pharmacies in the Northern Qin chain and has occupied three roads: Luonan, Guannei and Huainan." Zhen Suhang said, "They have many mysterious prescriptions and use fierce and bold drugs, but they provide them to the people for free. They just need to sign a disclaimer... a disclaimer contract. It is said that their old boss is a royal physician in the palace."

"Imperial physician? Can an imperial physician open a pharmacy outside?" Gu Yue asked, then slapped his forehead, dumbfounded. It must not be the imperial physician's own name. "Which imperial physician is it specifically?"

Gu Xu grabbed his wrist.

"There are many different opinions." Zhen Suhang said.

"Check!" Gu Yue looked anxious.

"What's wrong? What's the emergency?" Zhen Suhang saw that his face looked different, so he asked, "You also know that we have cooperation with the palace, so we can't easily reach out."

"The Baoshun Pharmacy has a medicine that is addictive. I'm afraid they have ulterior motives and want to attack the emperor." Gu Yue said in a low voice.

Zhen Suhang's face changed.

Gu Yue hoped that he was also a time traveler and could understand the seriousness of what he said.

It didn’t matter whether the emperor was dead or alive, they wanted to take the situation into their own hands.
