The Legend of Lijiang: The Last Dream of the Homeland

thing, I followed. " Lian Yuntian hugged him with a fist.

"Why didn't you inform me earlier, did you still treat me as an outsider? How about it, I haven't seen you for a few years, so you are safe?" Sa Jiufeng greeted the two of them to the table and poured tea.

Xiao Cheng casually picked up a piece of mutton fat jade hanging on the wall and said, "It's okay to talk about other things, but I never heard of anyone missing any treasures, so I'm not used to it!"

"You boy!" Sa Jiufeng rolled his eyes at him and said, "I don't ask for anything now, as long as I can know the whereabouts of that jade pendant again, and let me endure it for a few more years."

"Oh? What's so unusual about that jade pendant? Brother Sa is so obsessed with it!" Lian Yuntian was indeed a little strange, unexpectedly he hadn't forgotten that jade pendant until now.

But Sa Jiufeng waved his hands and smiled: "I promised others, don't say it, don't say it... However, it's not very useful to you, it's okay if you don't know, so as not to get into trouble, if you are like me for a few years If you can’t show your true identity to others, then you two must not be smothered to death!”

Hearing what he said, the two of them didn't ask any more questions, and just drank tea to reminisce about the old days and chatted about the ancient jade world, which was quite leisurely.

"Okay, madman, we don't waste time here if we have something to do. Let's get together again when our business is over." Seeing Lian Yuntian's gesture, Xiao Cheng stood up and said goodbye.

Sa Jiufeng was a man who was evasive by nature and understanding, so he also got up and said, "Okay, then I won't keep you guys, finish your work early and come to drink with my brother!"

The two left the 'Pinsexuan' and headed west. At a wonton stand at the intersection, they met Wei Meng who was holding a bowl of delicious wontons.

"Wei Meng? Why are you alone, where is Cheng Zhi?" Lian Yuntian stepped forward and looked around to see that there was no sign of Su Chengzhi, and asked.

"Most likely he went to find a place to rest by himself, let this boy wait for us here." Before Wei Meng swallowed a mouthful of wonton, Xiao Chengcheng whispered in Lian Yuntian's ear.

"Oh, my lord, my lord, Brother Su said that he is going to the Dingya Room of Baiweixuan outside Cuiping Villa, and asked his subordinates to wait here for the two of you." Sure enough, Wei Meng replied.

Lian Yuntian endured it for a long time before he didn't laugh out loud, Xiao Chengcheng was not so kind anymore, tears were coming out of his laughter, and he leaned in front of Lian Yuntian and said: "How did your family raise that fox? Why did my family raise it? Are all the stupid bears who come out?"

Lian Yuntian patted him on the shoulder with his fan, and didn't say anything, but Wei Meng was a little stunned: "My lord, what kind of fox or stupid bear? It's only been a while since we haven't seen each other. Are you and Lord Lian planning to raise animals?"

Lian Yuntian finally couldn't hold back, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's nothing, let's go, I've heard that the largest restaurant in Qingzhou is Zuixianlou, and the most elegant one is Baiweixuan, let's go see it today experience!"

It is indeed thanks to Su Chengzhi that he booked the private room. The name of Baiweixuan is not built. There are many people eating at noon, and there are many people who come to Baiweixuan. Thanks to the early reservation of the private room, everyone Only then did I have a comfortable lunch.

"Hey, it's been five days. I really hope that this clue will come to you in no time, so that you can go back to Beijing." Wei Meng bit a chicken leg and said.

Hearing this, even Yun Tian felt very uncomfortable. If this case could not be handled properly, it would be a big case involving the court. After so many days and little progress was made, he couldn't help feeling a little sad.

"You idiot, just finished eating wontons and then eating chicken, the food won't fill your mouth!" Seeing this, Xiao Cheng slapped Wei Meng hard.

Wei Meng stroked his head with a puzzled expression on his face. Just as he was about to speak, Su Chengzhi stuffed the chicken leg into his mouth, "Eat." Su Chengzhi smiled.

"Don't think too much about it. We'll go to Cuiping Villa to have a look in the afternoon. I feel that there must be ghosts there." Xiao Cheng gave Lian Yuntian a piece of fish meat that had been deboned.

When Lian Yuntian heard this, he also nodded, still a little absent-minded.

A group of people went directly to Cuiping Villa after dinner. Due to the murder case, the Helian family did not let the guests who participated in the competition to recruit relatives go back, but each of them still lived in their own guest rooms. It's been five days, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious. As soon as Yun Tian arrived, someone stepped forward and urged him to close the case quickly so that they could go home.Helpless, Lian Yuntian had no choice but to promise to close the case as soon as possible.

Lian Yuntian asked them one by one what they had done in the past few days and their views on Song Hefeng, but most of them said that they were not very familiar with him, because he was always secretive by himself and not very social, but Originally, everyone here is a competitor, who has a good relationship with whom.Later, when even Yuntian felt that there was no hope, the words of a man named Chen Zuojun caught his attention.

Chen Zuojun told him that two days before Song Hefeng's death, he practiced too late. When he went out to breathe, he saw Song Hefeng coming back from the outside. The direction seemed to be the direction of Miss Helian's boudoir, because there were no other buildings in the back mountain , so it makes people know where it is when they think about it. At that time, I satirized him in a hurry to see the lady before the competition was over, and I was really anxious: "He ignored me, and his expression seemed to be in a trance. There was a flash of doubt in his eyes."

Lian Yuntian asked him strangely: "Oh? You all came here for Miss Helian, why are you so calm about the possibility that Miss Helian's boudoir might be broken into?"

Chen Zuojun smiled and said: "Among so many people, how many people came here for Helian Duo'er, and most of them just want the wealth and martial arts of Cuiping Villa."

Lian Yuntian understood, but he was not worth it for Helian Duoer.There are only three owners of this Cuiping Villa, namely He Lianpeng's family of three, who didn't even have a concubine. Lian Yuntian had to ask the servants, but he didn't find any useful clues. Before leaving the pavilion, he stayed in the Buddhist hall all day long, and since they were all female family members, it was inconvenient to visit, so he gave up on it, rejected He Lianpeng's intention to stay for a meal, and went back to Lijiang Xiaozhu.

"Song Hefeng went to Helian Duo'er's room alone before he was alive, but he was full of doubts when he came back...The reason why Song Hefeng went to Cuiping Villa was to find out the truth of the year, so...he was in the back mountain, Or did you find something in Helian Duoer's room?" Lian Yuntian held a long-cold Longjing in his hand, and kept muttering: "But what did you find? If he When he discovered something related to the case of the year, his expression should be angry or something, but his expression at that time was puzzled and in a trance... Under what circumstances do people usually look in a trance?"

Seeing this, Wei Meng said: "My lord, you are in a trance like this."

Lian Yuntian didn't seem to have heard his words, and was still standing in front of the window blankly. With the clues he found and the case file given by the emperor, the whole incident turned out to be a huge conspiracy carefully planned for more than ten years. This conspiracy seemed to involve the entire Dashao Dynasty, even Yuntian took a deep breath, if so, it would be terrible!

Chapter 8

"I asked Aunt Liu to cook supper, you two go eat something, it might not be peaceful tonight, so you can just make it up."

"Yes." Su Chengzhi pulled Wei Meng and went outside to eat supper. The two of them were really hungry. On the way back from Cuiping Villa, several people encountered a scene of robbing civilian girls, and they were helpless. So I dealt with it, and it was too late when I came back.Judging by the adult's appearance, I guess I have to go to Cuiping Mountain Villa to play cats later, so I'd better eat more to avoid the cold.

Lian Yuntian was still standing in front of the window, it was still cold in spring, Lian Yuntian didn't seem to feel the chill, he just sighed deeply and frowned.At this time, there was a sudden warmth from behind, and it was Xiao Cheng who put on a thin cloak, "Don't worry, the truth will always come to light, I believe you, tell me how much you have sighed these days, It’s like Old Man Long.” Lian Yuntian smiled when he heard this, it turned out that Old Man Long’s name was Long Zizheng, he was the teacher of Xiao Cheng and the others when they were young, and he was also a scholar of Longyuan Pavilion. Xiao Cheng was tossed and tossed when he was young, so he sighed all day long.At this moment, when he recalled the incident of his youth, he felt it was absurd, but it was also extraordinarily heart-warming.

"Is that right, there is still this king in the frontier, you can just rest assured to investigate the case." Seeing him smile, Xiao Cheng patted his chest, and used the "king" that he hadn't used for a long time and only used when he was showing off. come out.

"Thank you." Lian Yuntian breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately there is still this person guarding Dashao's frontier, "Oh, by the way, let Cheng Zhi go to Cuiping Villa tonight." Then he called Su Chengzhi Come in and order carefully.

Xiao Cheng then told him about the situation in the court. I have to say that Xiao Ling is a good emperor. Hearing that everything went well in the court, Lian Yuntian was in a better mood, so he sat down and chatted with Xiao Cheng about family affairs.

At this time, Su Chengzhi, who was in Cuiping Villa, also met an uninvited guest, and saw that the man was wearing a sky-blue robe, cuffs tightly tied, a long sword in his hand, with picturesque eyes, and he was a romantic swordsman young man. In this dark night, wearing a light-colored robe in this heavily guarded Cuiping Villa is like entering the land of no one. People don't know whether to say that this person is bold or looks down on the world.

It turned out that after Su Chengzhi arrived at Cuiping Villa, he found that the structure of the villa was far more complicated than what he saw during the day. On the figure, my heart suddenly sank, but I realized that it was not from the villa, and the vigilance in my heart did not let go, and I immediately lowered my voice: "Who is it?!" But seeing that person just dropped a sentence: "The library." and left .Su Chengzhi had doubts in his heart, but he couldn't resist his curiosity, so he followed the direction pointed by the man to the library, only to hear the conversation between He Lianpeng and Gao Lanyu.

"Hey, why did something happen at this time when you said it was so good? You said Duo'er won't be discovered?" Gao Lanyu was a little worried.

But He Lianpeng was silent for a while and said: "Song Hefeng came to Houshan before his death."

"Ah? Then..." Gao Lanyu seemed to have dropped the tea cup, because Su Chengzhi heard the sound of porcelain cracking.

"Keep your voice down!" He Lianpeng scolded her and said again, "It doesn't matter, as long as the thing is still there, even if they know about it, the old man will have ten thousand reasons to deal with it."

"Then what if they want to see Duo'er, Duo'er has been disguised as a woman for so many years..."

"Shut up, what if someone is on the roof?" He Lianpeng interrupted her sharply.

Su Chengzhi froze, touched his nose, and flew away.

After returning to Xiaozhu, Lian Yuntian went directly to the main room, saw that the light outside was still on, knew that Lian Yuntian was still waiting for news, so he quickened his pace, but found someone eating a bowl of wonton noodles in the courtyard. Joyful Cao Jian, the second son of the Shangshu of the Ministry of War and Xiao Cheng's lieutenant general, knew that this man might have solved his troubles and came out to hide and relax.

"Hey, General Cao? Why are you eating supper here? Does the Miss Jia family catch your eye?" Su Chengzhi smiled gently.

Cao Jian looked up at him, and said, "You don't know?" Don't think he doesn't know, even adults are so gentle when they smile, this guy has only one face, and his belly is dark, so he couldn't help but slap him Shivering coldly, thinking of the experience of interrogating a spy with him makes my hair stand on end; but fortunately, this person is not bad in nature, he is righteous, and he has followed a good official, otherwise, I don’t know how many people have suffered from it.

"If General Cao doesn't tell you, how will I know?" Su Chengzhi still smiled like a forsythia that just bloomed yesterday.

But Cao Jian couldn't take it anymore, he put the bowl on the stone table and said, "Didn't you ask Mr. Lian for something?"

"Oh, that's right," Su Chengzhi patted his head and said, "Then I'll talk about it later, and I'll go find your lord first." After finishing speaking, he went straight into the room without waiting for Cao Jian's reaction.Only Cao Jian couldn't help but rolled his eyes. It seems that it is better to make fewer friends in the future!

It turned out that Cao Jian didn't come with Xiao Cheng because the wife of Minister of Justice, that is, his own mother, wanted to marry him a daughter-in-law, so she chose Jia Tingfang's first daughter-in-law. Going to Jing'an Temple to offer incense, people with discerning eyes can tell that it is for him to meet Miss Jia. The problem is that he doesn't want to marry Miss Jia at all, so it will be hard to say if he meets the daughter who has not left the court again. , It took a long time of "scheming" to settle this matter, and being ridiculed by Su Chengzhi when they met unexpectedly, can this be a pleasure, just thinking about getting rid of Su Cheng anytime.

But Su Chengzhi entered the room and saw that Lian Yuntian was talking with Xiao Cheng about the case of Zhan Tian, ​​the nephew of the current uncle Liang Taiyi, the Prime Minister of the Right, and there was a pot of strong tea on the table. Lian Yuntian sighed: "Since ancient times, relatives of the emperor and relatives of high-ranking officials have been occupying land and hurting people." "No, it almost hurt people's lives. This time, the emperor's brother has a headache." Seeing him coming in, Lian Yuntian stood still Get up: "You're back, how are you?"

"My lord, that old man really has ghosts. After his subordinates arrived at Cuiping Villa..." Su Chengzhi told what he had seen.

Lian Yuntian frowned again: "Man! Why? What is his purpose for doing this? There must be some compelling reason for men to disguise themselves as women for so many years. What is the reason? Also, let me tell you Who is the person who got the news?" Seeing that it was the news, Xiao Cheng couldn't help interjecting: "This will always be known, at least we know now, He Lianpeng is not in a hurry to choose a son-in-law to inherit the family business, he That delicate only daughter is a man, so what kind of son-in-law would he call in?"

A few people here have been thinking about it until late at night, but they haven't discussed anything. Let's not mention it for the time being. Let's say that in the palace, in the Fengyi Palace the next day, Empress Liang was playing chess with the emperor. After a while, the emperor threw the sunspot: " Why is it that I lost again, I stopped playing, Yongrou, even Ji Fengqin was defeated by me, why do you always lose here?"

Empress Liang smiled: "Then His Majesty wants to win?"

The corner of the emperor's mouth couldn't help twitching a few times after hearing this: "Forget it, forget it, if you are like those people, wouldn't I not be able to see anyone who dares to tell the truth?"

Empress Liang waved her hand with a smile, asked the grand maid to put away the chessboard, poured a cup of tea for the emperor herself, handed it over and said, "Your Majesty, don't say that, Taifu Ji just let you go Once you give in, why do you say that you are a flattering villain?"

The emperor also smiled, and waved his hand: "Hey, why did you forget, that guy is the steadfast master in the court, that's all." He took a sip of tea and said, "By the way, I heard that Prime Minister Zuo Have you watched the fun again recently?"

Empress Liang was shocked, she lived in the deep palace for a long time, she was considered a bit wise, Dashao has always been a husband and wife with equal status, but there is no saying that the harem cannot interfere in politics, but she doesn't like those bad things in the court, so she has never been able to pay attention to anything But the emperor liked to talk to her about nothing, so she listened, but this time it was about her father, and she still didn't see the letter. I think the emperor intercepted it, but I don't know whether the emperor wanted her to show her loyalty or not. I really feel sorry for her.When she looked up, she was relieved to see that the emperor's eyes were only joking and did not blame him. Yes, how could she have forgotten that her husband is not those suspicious emperors.

Thinking of the old days of the couple, I couldn't help laughing: "Oh, father caused trouble under your nose? Can't you?"

The emperor knew what she was thinking about in shock, but he was just helpless, who made them the most honorable couple in the world, they couldn't help themselves often!

"Hehe," the emperor smiled and put down the teacup, "Yongrou, do you still remember your cousin from your second aunt's house?"

Empress Liang nodded and returned: "Liang Yong'an, when you met him last year, didn't you still laugh and say that he was the only member of the Liang family?"

The emperor also seemed to recall the scene when he met him at the banquet a year ago, and couldn't help laughing.The dignitaries of the Manchu Dynasty are all here, not to mention that everyone is full of demeanor, but no one loses their composure, except for this nephew of the Liang family, who actually fought with the only son of the servant of the household department in public. The servant's son snatched a singing girl from him before.Prime Minister Liang was almost ashamed on the spot.It was also fortunate that the emperor liked to watch the excitement, so he didn't ask him about his crimes of disrespect in front of the palace, so Liang Yongcheng, the eldest brother of Empress Liang, was dragged back.After that, the emperor jokingly said to Empress Liang: "Your cousin, you are really the only one in your Liang family!"

"Ah, that's right, it's him. I've heard people say that he occupied nearly a hundred acres of fertile land in the outskirts of Gyeongju, causing complaints from the people of Gyeongju. It's miserable. This time, it's a good time, and directly injured a family of local people. , and even kidnapped someone else's girl, the head of the household was so angry that he ran to the prime minister's mansion with his wounds and complained directly. The man was smart enough to wait for the prime minister to go down to court and shouted for grievances, which shocked Prime Minister Liang. Send someone to Qingzhou to investigate, and you will be so angry that you will beat your cousin to death." After speaking, he took a sip of tea.

Empress Liang frowned when she heard this, and said: "Didn't the second aunt come to make trouble? Your Majesty must know about father's temperament, so he will definitely not spare my cousin lightly. But in this way, aunt will not have to go to the house every day. Are you crying?" The emperor waved his hands after hearing this, and said: "Hey, your aunt is also a character, and the one who cried, made trouble, and hanged herself kept yelling that Prime Minister Liang would kill their family to earn a name for themselves. Everyone knows that this matter is troublesome again, and Xiang Liang will throw this mess to me when his head hurts, it seems that I won't be free for long!" He said and shook his head.
