Jianghai Wuyue

Shuixinjian is the best Qinlou Chu Pavilion in Yuzhou City. It is built on the peach blossom island, hidden by the beautiful and graceful peach blossoms, and it depends on the water.Glass flowers polished by skillful craftsmen are hung on the suspension bridge connecting to the outside world. The clear color is full of rare good sunlight, and the decoration of a simple and unadorned suspension bridge is exquisite and dreamy.

On the attic with vermilion cornices and upturned corners, there is a thin orchestral sound coming through the water. It was originally a melodious sound, but it became fresh because of a little moist water mist.

Chen Ling has never been in such a sensual place. I heard from the seniors who went down the mountain to practice before that it is a man's paradise. Here, you can find the woman you like the most.As long as you have enough wealth, you can enjoy the most beautiful women for a long time.

Chen Ling didn't know whether the words were true or not, but it was the first time he entered such a place today, even though it was because of investigating the case, Chen Ling couldn't help feeling a little turbulent.

After crossing the suspension bridge, there is a smooth and exquisite stone road, surrounded by several square lanterns, and beautiful and soft peach blossoms are painted on the smoky yellow lantern gauze.There were several men reeking of alcohol at the open door, and they staggered out with a drunken look on their faces.

The bustard with heavy make-up saw Chen Ling sharp-eyed, pursed the corners of his mouth, genuinely smiled softly and honestly, stepped forward with small steps, and saluted Chen Ling gracefully.

"Does the guest officer want to go into the building to drink and play? It's daytime now. Xiyan and Cuijin had a busy night yesterday, so I'm afraid they won't be free now. But we still have sweet-scented osmanthus and yucca. You can call me They come to sing a Qing song and ditty, and serve the young master to have fun." The bustard is already in her mid-mature, but she has not lost her style, unlike a little girl, her voice is sweet and crisp, but gentle and soft like a sister.

There was no choking powder on her body, just a light floral fragrance, not greasy.Although the makeup on his face was heavy and gaudy, it did not conceal his delicate appearance.

"It is indeed a place that everyone admires. The few words of Mama Shan are much stronger than other families." Chen Ling praised, and before the old bustard called Mr. Gui, he waved his hand and refused: "It's just that I can't appreciate the style this time. , we are here this time to ask you something."

As he spoke, Wang Shanhai, who was behind him, strode forward, with a blood-mouthed tiger roaring on his soapy official robe, which made the bustard gasp in fright.Still in shock, he patted his chest, and then said with soft eyes: "The official is really frightening people. Didn't the official come here a few days ago? Why did he come again today? I told you everything about Linglong. Never kept it secret."

Chen Ling gave a consoling chuckle, and handed over a piece of silver, "This time, it's not that the officials are looking for trouble for you, but I've heard about it and I'm curious. I just have nothing to do and want to find out. After all, that's why I asked this poor man to come with me. If you scare your mother, please don't blame me, Xiaosheng will apologize to you here."

The old bustard took the money happily, pinched the corners of her charming eyes lightly, and gave him a charming look, "It's not that I can't agree to this matter, but the young master also knows that this is a place for business, this official After all, it’s not beautiful after all.” Looking at Wang Shanhai’s dark face, he turned his eyes and said, “Why don’t you go up with me, my lord, and the official will drink in the private room, I promise No one will bother you."

Wang Shanhai didn't want to agree, but when he was about to speak, Ning Ze quietly pinched him on the waist. The raw pain made Wang Shanhai's face darken and he agreed firmly.The old bustard was probably afraid that this black-faced official would be difficult to deal with, so with a smile on his face, he asked Mr. Gui to find the cleanest and most elegant place and arranged a delicious meal before he retreated.

Shuixinjian is built extremely high, with a total of twelve floors, and each floor has a different color and charm. The higher the place, the more expensive it is.Linglong is not an indispensable beauty, but because of her beautiful singing voice with a fleshy throat, she has a place among the many beauties, and barely lives on the fourth floor.

The hollow circular pavilions can clearly see the faint lights of each room, and the wide corridors are lined with fragrant flowers.In a corner of the corner, there is still a blush gauze ribbon, printed with red lips that exudes a strong fragrance of rouge, silently overflowing with an ambiguous fragrance of male and female flesh.

There is no sound of people in the building now, and occasionally a little maid hurried past, her eyes were a little black and her footsteps were flimsy.

Chen Ling stood at the railing and looked down. A pool with clear water was carved out of the vacant circular ground, and a few peach blossom lanterns with full color and bright red were placed in it.The lamps and candles used as pistils among the flowers are all extinguished now, and the jade-white round platform in the middle of the pool is full of light, and a few luxuriant petals are sprinkled on it.There is a crystal curtain on the side of the pool, and now a little maid carefully lifts the curtain, revealing the piano instruments placed inside.

"It must be a girl with a beautiful figure at night, who is like a shadow in the sky on this round platform, dancing with the never-fading peach blossoms."

The old bustard twirled her handkerchief and smiled coquettishly, and walked gracefully to Chen Ling, "This place was personally ordered by the landlord, just to make the son of the aristocratic family feel attentive. Now seeing the son, I also think If it is novel and ingenious, then it is really novel and ingenious.”

Thinking about this, the old bustard told everyone, but her art of speaking was extraordinarily brilliant, and it didn't seem exaggerated to people's ears.

After one glance, Chen Ling stopped paying attention to him and urged the bustard to go to Linglong's place.

Linglong died outside, and in such a tragic and unlucky way, no one lived in this house again, and the hibiscus flower paper hanging on the door also faded.

There is nothing luxurious and expensive in the room, and the only eye-catching thing is a tassel hairpin on the dressing table.A string of pearls the size of rice beads held in the mouth of the phoenix was piled up messily on the table, and the red treasures adorned underneath glowed luxuriously under the morning sun.

"This thing was given by Mr. Zheng. Linglong has always cherished it. Now that the building is empty, there is only this dead thing left." Chen Lingxuan patrolled, and the sensible ones kept silent.

The room is not big, and there are not many Dingxis. The only one that looks a little unusual is just an old old painting.On it is a graceful woman, with a full moon above her head, and a clear ocean with light waves under her feet.The woman is not a great beauty with a national beauty, only a pair of eyes are born very well, and there seems to be a stunning fascination between her gazes.

"Who is this person?" Chen Ling turned the portrait over for the bustard to see, and got a blank look from the bustard.

"Today is really troublesome for mom. I've already finished reading, so please ask mom to take us out." Chen Ling asked Lin Si to bring out a sufficient amount of silver and put it in the hands of the bustard.

After getting this ingot of silver, the smile on the old bustard's face became more sincere, and she graciously sent Chen Ling out.

"What kind of person is this Linglong, and why did she die so tragically? Could it be that she has some enemies!" Chen Ling pretended to ask casually, with genuine puzzlement on his face.

"Who would know this? I bought Linglong three years ago. At that time, I saw that she was good-looking, and she didn't run or make trouble. She could play the piano and the price was cheap. When she came to the building, she didn't cause trouble. He is a quiet and well-behaved person. Seeing that he is going to get rid of his lowly status and become a good man these years, whoever imagined it will die unexpectedly." Speaking of this old bustard, he also sighed, in the land of fireworks, there is a person who is willing to do everything for one It is also a great blessing for a husband's woman to escape her family and become a good man.It's just that this kind of blessing is a dream after all, and I couldn't wait to enjoy it, so I left.

"Did Miss Linglong ever have any unusual behaviors, or behaviors that were different from her temperament?"

"If it wasn't for a guest who wanted to pick her up to serve outside, she wouldn't go out. In the building, she just huddled in the room and played the piano. There was no unusual behavior."

After getting the answer, Chen Ling stopped asking and went back the same way.When he reached the second floor, the bustard suddenly groaned while clutching his stomach, "My lord...my lord, I... I can't make it, my stomach doesn't know why... all of a sudden... It hurts……"

Beads of sweat rolled down the old bustard's face, and the rouge on the eyes was blurred, hanging on the eyes in embarrassment, showing a well-covered old look.

Chen Ling saw that the pain didn't seem like a fake, so he hurriedly asked Lin Si to help the old bustard, and Luo Shui was also sent to see the doctor.

Chen Ling looked at Wang Qi helplessly, and twitched his lips, "It's just the two of us now, and this is the first time we've been wandering around in the fireworks field. Let's go, let's go find Wang Shanhai, and we'll talk about it when we go back."

The private room where Wang Shanhai lives is in a small courtyard behind the attic.The courtyard built at the back is used to entertain distinguished guests on weekdays, and the environment is different from the gorgeous and charming flower building in the front, which is very clean and emotional.

A few poles of bamboo hide a small courtyard, and there are one or two rockeries from time to time, hooking a few quiet green waters, circling in the pool.A few koi carps with lovely colors swim quietly in the water, throwing a string of water splashes from time to time, adding a bit of natural liveliness.

For some reason, when Chen Ling turned around, he saw the courtyard hidden behind layers of bamboo forest and flowers.As if something was calling him, he walked there involuntarily.

It was a very simple and elegant courtyard, with only a wisteria tree in it and a small dug pond.There were several pots of lively and brightly colored kumquats in the yard, and the dazzling orange color jumped into his eyes.

Chen Ling clutched his forehead, he always felt as if he had been to this place, every flower and grass were as bright as yesterday.It's just that in his memory, there is another person who can't remember what he looks like.Hold him intimately, show him beautiful kites, and play childish games with him.

Chen Ling's clear eyes slowly became dazed, his eyes were half-closed, and he stood in the courtyard with a dazed and drunken expression, staggering as if he was about to fall down.

At the moment when his feet fluttered and he fell down involuntarily, in Xi Wei's eyes, he saw a corner of the black robe flashing away.Like a black cloud rolling across the sky, pressing down on Huanghuang's majesty, a deep crack opened in his heart.
