last night suddenly dreamed of mountains and rivers

Chapter 5 The Plum Blossom Dart Comes from the North Gate

After studying the plum dart in the room for a while, Lan Jiansu still had no clue.The feeling of wanting to die was very strong before, but now the feeling of not wanting to die comes suddenly.The original owner had been kicked out of the capital long ago, and rolled under King Zhen Xian as a waste. Because he offended the Holy Majesty, he was stigmatized.Who has such a deep hatred against him and wants to kill him?Unable to solve this puzzle, Lan Jiansu would not be willing to reincarnate again.

Pushing the door open, Lan Jiansu bumped into Su Yinyou who was hovering at his door, their lips almost knocked each other again.

Su Yinyou hurriedly stood still, stopped her panicked expression, and put on the air of him being unrestrained and unrestrained in the world and treating all living beings as worthless.

Lan Jiansu could see that there was a panic in his calm skin.But his heart is flustered, his mouth is not flustered, and he will forcefully kiss people, which is very scary.

Lan Jiansu hurriedly covered her mouth, and asked through the palm of her hand, "What is brother doing here?"

Su Yinyou stepped into the room, approached step by step, feigned anger and said: "I waited for you in the room for a long time last night, why didn't you come?"

Lan Jiansu retreated all the way, covering her mouth more and more tightly: "You and I are brothers in name after all, it's not good after all."

Su Yinyou forced him to a corner, and grabbed his wrist: "What's wrong? What are you afraid of? Afraid of your father? Afraid of the emperor? Could it be that you have deliberately teased me everywhere in the past few days?"

Lan Jiansu's wrist was hurting, and she was on the verge of collapse: "I respect you like an elder brother, and I have absolutely no other thoughts."

A layer of frost swept over Su Yin's worried face: "It's good that you don't have any other thoughts. Then what you said and did before, you also respect me like an elder brother?"

Lan Jiansu's head was heavier than a stone, and he flogged his soul desperately: What did you do and what did you say?As a result, a beautiful young man is so crazy?

"Hmph, but it's not like I haven't seen a person like you, attacking first and then retreating, playing hard to get. You don't need to use these tricks if you want to grab my heart." He forcibly pulled Lan Jiansu's hand away, and let it go to his chest, "You are so good at it, this heart will be given to you in the end."

Lan Jiansu called out, "Help, stop the love brain!" He didn't want to have any relationship with the people here beyond ordinary friendship, he just wanted to find out who killed him, and then commit suicide and go home.

But Su Yinyou's chest was very slippery and soft, he was really reluctant to withdraw his hand.

Su Yinyou laughed at herself, and said to herself: "You don't need to say anything, I know what you think, anyway, you will be mine in the end. Young master is going to Yulin Langyuan for a glass of flower wine now. You have a clear relationship with me, and now you must follow me like a shadow."

Lan Jiansu was full of complaints and didn't know where to start.This elder brother, first misunderstood his intentions, but now he still has the vague intention of treating him as zero.If it weren't for more important things on his body, and he didn't want to get involved with this world any more, Lan Jiansu would have taught him to "be a man".

Walking out of the gate, Lan Jiansu let go of Su Yin's worrying hand: "It's good to go here together, let's go our separate ways from now on."

Su Yin frowned worryingly: "You don't want me to go to Yulin Langyuan?"

"After thinking about it, my brother still doesn't like flower wine, but green fermented grains, so I went to look for green fermented grains here." After Lan Jiansu said this, his feet had already run far away.

Su Yinyou opened her mouth and shouted: "Lan..." After choking, the two words stuck in her throat.

Lan Jiansu asked all the blacksmiths in the capital, but no one knew where the craft of plum blossom darts came from.Feeling depressed at the moment, I found an inn to drink.

The old pagoda tree in front of the inn was buzzing with cicadas. Under the tree, a woman dressed in a light lotus-colored skirt and a court lady was shrouded in the green shade and the noise of cicadas.

Lan Jiansu saw that the woman's face was pale, her pupils were distracted, and there was no shadow in the sunlight, she knew it all.

He put down the jug and walked towards the woman.When he got closer, he saw that the woman was dripping water all over her body, her face was swollen and pale, and her two wet eyebrows were twisted into a ball.There was no superfluous expression on his face, just fear, endless fear, and fear filled two eyeballs that popped out of their sockets.

After ordinary people die, if they don't go to the underworld immediately, the three souls and seven souls will wander in familiar places in the world.Ghosts who have deep resentment or spiritual power will lose one soul in one year and one soul in seven days.Three years of soul exhaustion, seven phases of soul dispersal.The female ghost has only one soul left, apparently dead for more than 42 days.

Lan Jiansu asked her, "Are you from the palace? Why do you keep staring at me?"

The female ghost's rotten and white lips trembled for a long time, and she weakly called out: "Second Lord."

Lan Jiansu's eyelids twitched, and when she saw a red mole under her ear, she was startled: "Aunt Danxin?"

Aunt Danxin is Empress Shuhui's personal maid, she raised the second prince since childhood, she has always regarded the second prince as her own, and the two have a deep relationship.Although Lan Jiansu and her were just meeting for the first time, in the mind of the original owner, Dan Xin ran to catch Cicada, and climbed a tree to catch a kite for him.

After Lan Jiansu was shocked, a trace of pain surfaced on his face: "You, you're not alive anymore?"

Dan Xin's speech gradually fell silent, all relying on a surge of air: "Second master, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I can't hold it anymore... Your mother died unexpectedly, it was not your fault, it was him, that person... He lied to you A lot of people were killed."

Lan Jiansu asked, "Who is he?"

Dan Xin's swollen and white face crawled up with several bug-like cracks, and the face was split into four or five petals.The fear on her face faded into a dead silence, and she spoke a few words with great difficulty.

Lan Jiansu asked anxiously, "Who are you talking about? I didn't hear clearly!"

He put his ears together, only to hear his heart as thin as a mosquito say: "Second Master, go to find the relics of the empress, Binliu Bridge, in the wall bricks of the third bridge hole, the second master... the second master must avenge the empress, I want to avenge my mother."

"Okay, I see. Tell me again, who killed the concubine mother?"

A cool breeze passed by Lan Jiansu's ears, and when he raised his eyes to look at Dan Xin again, Dan Xin had three wisps of soul flying away with the green smoke.Lan Jiansu called "Aunt Danxin" twice, only the wind was blowing in her ears, and the sound of cicadas was heard.

Lan Jiansu swam under the bridge opening of Binliu Bridge in a small boat. The brick walls of the bridge opening were covered with moss, only a few bricks looked like new decorations, showing signs of being used.

Lan Jiansu pulled out a dagger and chiseled out the bricks.There is a small space behind the brick, and there is a large bag of things wrapped in cowhide.

Lan Jiansu reached out to pick it out, but his fingers barely touched the cowhide, but the boat wobbled and ran behind.In desperation, Lan Jiansu rowed on the water with one hand, and stretched out the other hand to reach the relic. Half of his body was in the boat, and the other half was stretched out on the water.

As the boat went further and further back, Lan Jiansu's body leaned further and further, and when he grabbed the relic, he finally made a splash and embraced the river water.He hastily stuffed the relic into his clothes before it floated to the surface.The small boat twisted and flicked and floated far away.

At this time, on the water of Baolu River, a mahogany painted boat suddenly broke through the water, and standing on the prow was a handsome and colorful man in green clothes, with a gorgeous jade belt embroidered with birds and beasts around his waist, and his brows were cold with a bit of determination.There was a personal attendant beside him, with a solemn expression, as if he was suffering and hating everything that was not angry.

Lan Jiansu's head was floating on the water, and the painting boat was approaching the bridge hole. When the man in green saw the person floating on the water, he frowned slightly: "Second master?"

The attendant beside him chuckled: "Where is Second Master playing here?"

The man in Tsing Yi glanced at him, and he immediately suppressed his smile and continued to express his bitterness and hatred for justice.

Lan Jiansu wiped away the water from his face, and after seeing the people on the boat clearly, he said with a smile, "So it's Mr. Xiang."

The man in Tsing Yi is Shen Pinglu, the Prime Minister of the current dynasty.

Shen Pinglu is young and promising, extremely politically minded and capable of governing the world.He once put forward feasible policies for the issue of Dafeng's Outer Islands, and made great contributions, but it was too late to appear as a prime minister.Having been prime minister for six years, he has made numerous achievements, won the hearts of the people and the emperor's favor, and is a winner in life who reached the pinnacle at a young age.

However, Shen Pinglv has insightful insights in the overall situation, but he is vicious and vicious in the infighting in the officialdom.With a clear temper, he will be thankful for his kindness, and will avenge his revenge.He also reported by all means.

It is said that when Shen Pinglu was young, he was humiliated by Zuodu Censor of the Procuratorate. After he appeared in the photo, he repaid his hatred with virtue, and gave his own sister to Zuodu Censor as a concubine, and made friends with him.During the next two years, he collected evidence of Zuodu Yushi's use of power for personal gain, corruption and bribery, and correspondence with enemy countries, and ransacked his whole family.

Although Shen Pinglu saved his younger sister's life by virtue of her status, her younger sister was overwhelmed by such a blow and hanged herself in the prime minister's mansion.

Lan Jiansu mentioned the inside story of the case before the emperor, which made the emperor think that Shen Pinglu was of bad character and acted viciously, so he was slightly alienated from him.

If Shen Pinglu started to hold grudges, there would be a certain amount of personal enmity between him and Lan Jiansu.

In this compartment, Shen Pinglu's painting boat had already swam into the bridge hole, let the boatman hold the boat, and stopped in front of Lan Jiansu.The attendant worked hard with his upright face, and he couldn't help grinning again: "Second Master, long time no see. It's drowning, do you need help from my humble servant?"

Lan Jiansu saw that the two were condescending, even an attendant could tease him, and felt that they were in an embarrassing position.On the one hand, for the sake of saving face, on the other hand, he pretended to be out of character: "This water is quiet, and it also leads to the inner river of the palace. It is deeply infiltrated by the emperor's dragon spirit. I take a bath here, just to wash off the filth on my body."

The attendant wondered: "Dress and take a bath, be decent!"

"Why don't you try it too?" Lan Jiansu threw a handful of earthy river water onto the attendant's face.

The attendant splashed a hand of water on his face, closed his eyes, a few drops of water slid down, and said with a dry smile: "No, I'm lowly and filthy, I'm afraid it will spoil the dragon spirit of the emperor."

Shen Pinglu stared at Lan Jiansu for a long time, then suddenly said: "Although the weather is hot, the water is cold after all, the second master should come up quickly, so as not to catch a cold." He bent down and took Lan Jiansu's hand , catch him up.

Lan Jiansu took advantage of his energy to get on the boat and bowed to Shen Pinglv.

Shen Pinglv said to the attendants: "Take the second master into the boat house and change into clean clothes."

Lan Jiansu went into the boat house and changed into a clean plain robe and came out. He shook the wet clothes that he had changed, and the plum blossom dart fell out of the clothes with a clang.

Shen Pinglu said "Huh", pointed at the plum blossom dart and asked, "Why does the second master have this thing on him?"

Lan Jiansu picked up the dart and said: "A few days ago, the prince broke into the assassin's residence and left this dart behind. I learned that the dart iron came from the capital. After entering Beijing, I went to every iron shop to inquire, but no one has seen this dart craft."

Shen Pinglu asked: "Can the second master show the dart to the little minister?"

Lan Jiansu wanted to show him that it was all right, so she handed him the dart.

Shen Pinglu took a few glances at the dart, and his eyes showed firmness: "This plum blossom dart is very light and thin, easy to carry around, but it is extremely sharp, and the workmanship is good. If I think right, this dart should be It comes from the killer organization on the rivers and lakes—Northern Seventeen Gates."

There are seventeen gates in the north.Lan Jiansu secretly read these five words again, and then asked, "How can you be sure?"

Shen Pinglu winked at the attendant.Flicking the hem of the attendant's clothes, Keng Keng dropped several plum blossom darts with the same appearance.

Shen commented on the green way: "These are all hidden weapons left by the assassins arrested in the palace. The head of the imperial guard said that there are too many hidden weapons in the palace, and the warehouse can't put them down, so he gave some to the humble minister as a souvenir."

Lan Jiansu picked up a dart on the ground and compared it with the one on her body.No matter the size or the workmanship, they are exactly the same: "I'm really honored to be able to make the same style as Shengshang." As he bowed to Shen Pinglv for the second time, Lan Jiansu said, "Thank you, Mr. Doubtful, I really don’t know how to thank you.”

Shen Pinglu smiled lightly: "If the second master really wants to thank Weichen, there is a favor here for Weichen that needs the help of the second master."

"What are you busy with?"

Shen Pinglu made a "please" gesture to the houseboat: "Don't worry, let's go inside and talk."
