Your heart's desire
Chapter 021
When the informant sent by Luo Yan came back, four people from the first mansion were sitting in the main hall of Lin Mansion drinking tea.
Jin Shicai was buried half a month ago. The people in the mansion saw that the plain white of Yifu was not happy, and they didn't dare to use bright colors lightly, so they found a few feet of green cloth to replace it. Now the main hall is still somewhat Unbearably oppressive.
Luo Yan and Lin Ying sat at the main seats, with a square tea table between them.
But even if there are a lot of servants around, Lin Ying still looks unabashed now, directly grabbing Lin Ying's hand and putting it on it, rubbing it vigorously, fearing that it will freeze him.
Chi Pin was sitting on one side, still not very happy on his face, and just now seeing Luo Yan walking in with Lin Ying in his arms, he had clenched his fists and wanted to make a move in just a short moment, but one by one He Jianying stopped him.
"He came prepared today, if you mess with him, things will only get more troublesome!"
What He Jian said faintly, Chi Pin only felt strange when he heard it, half understood, and the tone was not like his usual innocent tone.
Shaking his head and looking back, He Jian suddenly returned to his original appearance, even smiling silly, and stepped forward to blindfold him.
"Don't look at it, did you see Master Shangshu's stunning beauty, and you moved your mind!"
Chi Pin was in a trance for a moment, then glanced at Lin Ying in a blink of an eye, saw that his face was full of displeasure, and he was thinking about it, but he still smiled at He Jian: "No, Master Shang Shu is something I can climb up to , don't think too much about it!"
He Jian smiled satisfied after hearing this, and then drank his tea with a heavy heart, without saying a word.
Lin Yingwen put his eyes on him, and heard him pointing at himself everywhere, with complicated emotions in his heart.
When the informant lifted the curtain and entered the room, perhaps he didn't hear anyone's voice outside the room, but when he came in, he saw a lot of figures, obviously startled, with an embarrassing smile on his face. He bowed his head and saluted first.
A pair of eyeballs opened wide and round, trying to ask Luo Yan whether he should speak or not in this situation.
But Luo Yan smiled knowingly: "There are no outsiders in this room, so speak up if you have something to say!" Then he nodded and replied with peace of mind.
"The villain went to the gambling shop to check, and no one has gone to make troubles recently, but this man is cruel, and he only settled the debt the day before he died. The method is extremely cruel!"
When the voice came to the end, the man involuntarily frowned.The scene seen can be seen clearly.
There seemed to be lumps in the incense burner, and suddenly the fragrance became stronger several times, causing him to cover his mouth and nose and sneezed hard.
"Then no one cares, the government can let a street rogue be the master of this life?"
Taking advantage of this time, the hall was very quiet.All the people in the house hadn't said anything yet, but they were so fast-talking, and they didn't have any intention of discussing politics on weekdays. Now they seemed to be thinking about it after listening to the excitement, and made such a nonsense sentence quite casually.
Chi Pin glanced at him, he hurriedly shrank his head back, curled his lips, as if he had done something wrong, and immediately fell silent.
On the contrary, Lin Ying replied in a low voice, very tired of explaining in his tone: "Anyone who can open a gambling shop in the middle of the capital must not have a simple identity, and how can he be managed by any official position? This trend has been going on for a long time, who is willing to cut off his future career for someone who has no reason."
But these are all episodes, a few people have a lot of fun talking about each other, but it will only delay the effort.
Luo Yan saw that they were all serious-minded, and now they had a chance to talk, so he squeezed the conversation and continued to ask: "Have you found out where they visited before they died, and who they had most contact with?"
The three of them listened carefully again.
Straightening his throat, and slowly getting used to the aroma, the man opened his mouth again: "Yes, the most frequent place for the deceased to go to before his death was the Drunken Spring Tower, and he often ordered a girl to sing, named Qinxiang. Besides, Other than that, most of them just stay in the casino."
When Lin Ying listened to the first half, he felt that there was nothing wrong with it. For a quack, there is nothing wrong with going to those romantic places, and it makes sense.It's just that a name suddenly followed, he listened to it, and suddenly caught the clue.
"Qinxiang?"
He frowned suspiciously, but felt that it was quite familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, tilted his head, quickly searched for these two words in his mind, and couldn't help but pronounce them out of his mouth.
Luo Yan hurriedly asked: "What's the matter, do you know this girl?"
The sound was not loud, but the people in the room could hear it clearly.He Jian's expression was exaggerated, as if he had heard a big joke: "Master Lin knows prostitutes? Lord Shangshu should inquire carefully in this court. Is it possible to find someone in Beijing who is better than my Lord Lin?" Want an upright master?"
While speaking, he waved his hand a little loudly, and smashed the cup in front of him to the ground with a bang.
Luo Yan glanced at him, saw that he looked like he was scared even by himself, and then sighed helplessly.
Suddenly remembered that when she dragged him to the Zuifeng Tower before, Lin Ying said that she had to be masculine, smiled knowingly, and hurriedly accepted it to pretend to be calm, just said: "Anyway, it's okay to go to the Zuifeng Tower." Yes, everything will be clear!"
After finishing speaking, Lin Ying was pulled to stand up, and no one in the room noticed Chi Pin who had been silent by the door.
Lin Ying has never set foot in this Flower Street and Willow Lane in his life, and now it is only a month, but he has been here for two days, and two days have taken place, so it is quite difficult to stand at the door when he arrives. Wei sighed with emotion.
The previous line was quite oolong, and a lot of jokes were made, especially when he said "Mom, there is a stunning man here", every time I think about it, I can't help but feel trembling and goose bumps all over my body.
So when I set foot here now, I lost my courage and bravery the first time, and became a lot more shy and reserved.
However, it is of no use to cover up. Two figures will appear in front of the door, and the bustard has already come up to meet them.
Different from her previous reaction when she saw Luo Yan, when she saw Luo Yan, she wished she could put her whole body on it, and grinned more joyfully.
Touching Luo Yan's chest and asking questions, and finally whispered something in the ear, the two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had a joy that others could not understand.
It was also the first time he saw Luo Yan smiling at the first person other than himself.
"Next time, Mr. Luo has business to do when he comes back, so I hope mom will cooperate!"
The guests in the hall were noisy, and there was an endless stream of people coming in and out.The old bustard, Xu Shi, was in a very happy mood today. Seeing him speaking and pointing at Lin Ying with his chin, he hurriedly kept silent and raised his eyes to take a look. Suddenly, his expression became strange and difficult to understand, and he bumped Luo Yan with his arm: "Oh , it seems that this meaty son has already entered his mouth, and it is worthwhile to plan a game for you! But it is true, in this capital, no matter where you come from, whether you are male or female, except for the current emperor, who can stand up to your appearance, son And family wealth!"
She is an outsider, and when she speaks, she seems to be worried about her own mother who has raised Luo Yan to such a big age.
Lin Ying stood by the side to avoid it, but when he heard these words, his eyes almost popped out.
What this means is that all the affairs of the Zuifenglou and his party a few days ago were planned.
At this time, go back and think about it, if there is no such thing as Mr. Jin, then I am afraid that I was forcibly occupied by Luo Yan that night.
He became angry for a moment, not understanding why this well-dressed man in front of him was so full of lustful things, he suddenly shouted anxiously: "Luo Qingshan, did you also the one who knocked me out that day? How many things are you hiding from me?"
Luo Yan hadn't realized what day he was talking about after hearing what he said, and hadn't figured out how many things he was hiding from him.
Lin Ying's body was light, and he went up the wooden steps in twos and threes. Before he rolled his eyes to understand, a picture suddenly flashed in his head.
He suddenly remembered where he had heard the name Qin Xiang.Could it be that he heard it here, and it was the old bustard who told Chi Pin himself that the girl named Qin Xiang was waiting for him upstairs.
I was knocked out in the attic before, and when Ben woke up, he wanted to ask clearly.
Unexpectedly, good luck tricked people, and suddenly there was an interruption from Mr. Jin, so I forgot, and I never remembered it.
Now I suddenly remembered that I was co-authoring this case again, and I suddenly thought carefully and feared that I had something to do with He Jian before, and now I am late in hiring, and things have become more and more complicated.
He turned around and was about to tell Luo Yan, but suddenly stopped in the middle of the road, his mouth was slightly opened, and he closed it again without saying a word.
Luo Yan saw that he moved again, and the two of them walked over and hugged him casually: "Why, what crime did you remember?"
The old bustard at the side just followed with a sneaky smile, and based on the experience of struggling many times without success, Lin Ying gave Luo Yan a lot of face this time, without a single bit of resistance on his body, and just tilted his head to imitate his cold tone: "Do business!"
Luo Yan smiled happily, then said "Oh" happily, and began to ask: "Is there a girl named Qinxiang here, Mom?"
The mother was still smiling one second, but her expression changed suddenly in the next second, as if the name was the seductive little ghost in the Temple of Yama, and even mentioning it made people shudder.
She opened and closed her mouth tremblingly, swallowing several mouthfuls of saliva.Immediately, he squeezed out a smile again, and stammered back: "This..."
Luo Yan's eyes were bright, and he naturally knew that there was something wrong with it, but he still pretended not to know anything.
"Why, is there a problem? Today, the official is very happy. I heard that Qinxiang girl here is the best in Beijing, so I came here to add something new. Could it be that my mother wants me to make this trip in vain?"
"This……"
The old bustard looked confused, unable to make up his mind.
He said again: "If I don't see Miss Qinxiang today, I won't leave until now!"
Jin Shicai was buried half a month ago. The people in the mansion saw that the plain white of Yifu was not happy, and they didn't dare to use bright colors lightly, so they found a few feet of green cloth to replace it. Now the main hall is still somewhat Unbearably oppressive.
