Exclusive golden branch

Chapter 561 Attacked
In the early morning of the next day, Jiang Shaoyan took the crutch to Anguo Gong's mansion, but it was a rare coincidence that Ji Chongyan went out early in the morning.Asked about Ji Chongyan's whereabouts, Jiang Shaoyan wanted to look for it, but after thinking about it, he felt that since he came to Anguo Gong's mansion, the Duke of Anguo wanted to pay a visit, so he went to visit An Guogong on purpose.

An Guogong was at home. When she passed by, she was explaining to several servants: "Clean up the yard, and stew the lotus seed soup that Wanniang likes. When she comes back in the afternoon, she can eat it right away. Young man At that time, she would come to serve a bowl every day."

Mrs. An's boudoir name contained the word "Wan", so it was obvious who this Wanniang was referring to.

An Guogong and his wife really have a deep and deep relationship!

Jiang Shaoyan walked in behind the steward, and the steward leading the way said: "Miss Jiang Si is here!"

Only then did An Guogong temporarily put aside the talking servants and raised his head.

When he raised his head and saw Jiang Shaoyan who seemed to be a different person, he was also startled, not surprisingly.

Jiang Shaoyan has experienced this kind of thing of not being able to recognize her several times these days, so she is already used to it.

After confirming that he was indeed Jiang Shaoyan, An Guogong slowly came back to his senses, looked at her and said, "I thought you two would go out backwards to stand up to the gazes and criticisms of others, but now you don't have to." .”

But as soon as he finished speaking, he quickly waved his hands and said: "The criticism is gone, but there must be attention."

It would be strange if such a good-looking couple went outside and didn't ask people to take a second look.

It is a good thing that the future granddaughter-in-law is so beautiful, Duke An is more and more satisfied, but when he thinks about his family affairs, he feels a little guilty: the Duke's mansion is a big hole right now, and ordinary people may not be able to bear it if they jump in. live.After all, I still feel sorry for other girls!
But fortunately, the future granddaughter-in-law will be able to stand upright and be courageous and resourceful, so if another girl really might be able to bear it.

When a good-looking child is in front, people can't help but take a second look.Although An Guogong wanted to see more, he didn't keep her anymore, he just asked two guards to escort her to Ji Chongyan.

The carriage that came out of the main entrance of the Duke's Mansion turned slowly to Chang'an Avenue, and then stopped in front of a tavern on the street.

Taking the Mi Li from Xiangli and putting it on her head, Jiang Shaoyan got out of the carriage.The handwriting on the banner fluttering in the wind in front of the tavern is really familiar, who else could it be if it wasn't from Lin Yan?
So... it's obvious who this tavern is.

He followed the guard and stepped into the gate of the tavern, and immediately saw the pretty woman standing behind the counter.

Jiang Shaoyan only took one look, and then made an evaluation: beautiful and delicate, with tough eyes.

A woman who can stand alone in the market is naturally tough.

Seemingly recognizing the two guards of Duke An's Mansion, Zisu, the proprietress of the tavern, came out from behind the counter and looked at Xiangli and Jiang Shaoyan who was wearing a hat with a smile on her face.

When the two guards said, "This is Miss Jiang Si", Zisu didn't show any surprise on her face, and she presumably knew about her "losing weight" from Ji Chongyan.

After slightly bowing to her and calling "Miss Jiang Si", Zisu led the group of them to the backyard.

From time to time while walking, she nodded and said hello to the regular customers passing by. Jiang Shaoyan looked at the woman walking in front of her, her voice was neither humble nor overbearing, and her gestures were graceful.

A woman who can make Lin Yan like her really has something special about her.

Zisu led the group of them to the backyard, then pointed to a slightly closed door in the middle, and said, "The prince and Lin Yan are both inside, Miss Jiang Si just go in, I'll go back and get busy first!"

Jiang Shaoyan thanked her.

Zi Su smiled and left.

After Zisu left, Jiang Shaoyan walked in.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lin Yan was half-lying on the bed with a large white cloth wrapped around his body, looking "as if he was seriously injured".

When seeing her, Lin Yan was also taken aback for a moment, and then said to Ji Chongyan who was beside him, "Chongyan, I really believe what you said in Baoling right now."

He doesn't find it strange that Chongyan likes Miss Jiang Si, after all, he has been in contact with Miss Jiang Si for a long time, and Miss Jiang Si's inner advantages can be seen at a glance, so Chongyan is a perfect match.

But even though he thought the two were a perfect match, Chongyan's words in Baoling still...

Although icy muscles and bones and lotuses grow step by step are not wrong, but with a large Miss Jiang Si who looks like a glutinous rice dumpling, it always feels a bit nondescript.

Right now, the sense of nondescriptness is gone, and Miss Jiang Si in front of her seems to be what she should have been, standing there calmly, and Ji Chongyan next to her is like a pair of lovers.

It seems that Chongyan really has a pair of good eyes, and he can see people very accurately.Of course, if he hadn't seen it right, he might have confessed directly last night.

Thinking of this, Lin Yanren suddenly lowered his voice, and said weakly: "Miss Jiang Si, I was stabbed by an assassin yesterday, and now I am in serious danger..."

Jiang Shaoyan: "..." After a pause, she supported her forehead and said, "Lin Shaoqing, if you are really seriously injured, how can Miss Zisu have the heart to go to the front to treat guests?" Zisu's face did not show any worry .

"Also, it's really rare for a seriously injured person to look as good as Lin Shaoqing." Jiang Shaoyan said.

Lin Yan couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth when he said a word. Originally, he made a joke on a whim, but now he had no intention of joking anymore, so he had no choice but to say: "Miss Jiang Si is really the same as Chongyan, and she broke me when she came. 'serious injuries'."

However, the injury was fake, but yesterday's assassin was real.

"A few days ago, Chongyan reminded me to be careful, so I put on the soft armor I borrowed from the army. Although it was a bit bloated and hot, it really saved my life!" Stop joking, Lin Yan talked about the business, "Last night I checked the file in the warehouse and after dinner, I thought about coming to Zisu's place for dinner."

The Lin family has its own rules, and they are particular about the time of eating and drinking, but there is no such thing as Zisu's here.

There are often such things as opening a small stove.

Lin Yan raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the tavern, and said, "Someone jumped out near the dark alley not far from the tavern and stabbed me in the chest and abdomen."

There was blood immediately under that knife.

Although this street is not the busiest, there are many people coming and going at night. Some passers-by saw this scene and immediately let out a scream.

The man didn't have time to step forward to make up the knife, and ran away when he heard the sound.

Then, he simply got up, staggered into Zisu's tavern covered in blood, and frightened Zisu and all the drinkers in the tavern.

Having said that, Lin Yan stopped, glanced at Ji Chongyan with a strange expression, and said, "Chongyan told me to hide chicken blood in front of the soft armor. I didn't realize it at first, but now..."

"That knife was not shallow. If I didn't prepare for anything, I would be seriously injured if I didn't die." Lin Yan said, "I realized what Chongyan meant, so I simply followed the plan and ran to the tavern with chicken blood all over my body. .”

Along the way, many people saw him lying in the tavern with serious injuries.

The dignified Shaoqing of Dali Temple was attacked and seriously injured in Chang'an City spread like wildfire. After receiving the news, it took no more than half an hour for the soldiers and horses of the five cities to rush to the tavern.

Although this matter was suppressed by Ji Feng for the time being, the assassination of Shaoqing in Dali Temple in the street was too sensational, and many people mentioned it behind closed doors.

Of course, as to the cause of the attack, the most guessed is that Lin Shaoqing investigated the case and found the murderer. The murderer was worried about being discovered, so he wanted to get rid of Lin Shaoqing, so he made such a desperate move.

"I've found quite a few murderers in the past." Lin Yan said calmly while sitting on the bed, "But these days, I really haven't been investigating any reported cases."

What he was investigating was the old affairs of those drug dealers from beginning to end.

There must be a reason for being attacked for no reason.

"I didn't have any clues at first, but their knife woke me up. I must have found something that made them jump over the wall like a dog." Lin Yan said with a sneer, "It's funny that I haven't found out these days."

Therefore, he recalled the warehouse files that he had browsed these days, and besides being full of old stories about drug dealers, he discovered something by accident.

"Chongyan, do you still remember the aliens you met in the assassination on the streets of Luoyang?" Lin Yan said, "There are also those who attacked the Luoyang post station at night. Those moves and skills are different, as if they were put together aliens?"

So far, a word that has appeared before but has not attracted attention has appeared in front of several people.

Aliens.

"In the old story of the Ye family, the Zhang family, the descendants of the intermarriage between the Han and the aliens, was once the most famous alien race in the Central Plains. Their appearance is somewhat different from that of the orthodox Han people. Therefore, they were once a model for people of other races. After intermarriages between people of different races and Han people, the Zhang family not only took care of these marriages of different races and Han people, but also hoped that these people would be able to survive the marriage of Han people. They live in peace with the Han people." Lin Yan hastily mentioned the Zhang family, "Then something happened to the Zhang family, and these aliens and Han people withdrew from the public."

The difference in appearance is obvious and can be seen at a glance.

Not everyone is willing to accept people of other races. People will have an instinctive vigilance and rejection of people who are not of their own race.

After the Zhang family who was most willing to accept the combination of these two ethnic groups had an accident, the situation of these non-Han and non-different people was naturally not very good.It was not until His Majesty ascended the throne and abolished many laws against these non-Chinese and non-different people that the situation was better.It's just that no matter how good it is, it will be difficult to restore the grand occasion of the past in these years.

"So, you mean that those so-called drug dealers may be related to foreigners?" Ji Chongyan said.

This sentence made Lin Yan stuck, paused, and said: "I have to check again, the drug dealer started to lay out a hundred years ago, Zhang's accident was 60 years ago, and the Asu family's incident was also 13 years ago ahead."

These times are not the same, but there are big things happening.

Ji Chongyan said "Yes", but glanced at Lin Yan, and said, "You can check! But you should take a 'serious injury' and ask for leave first!"

Lin Yan: "..."

"If I don't go back to Dali Temple, how can I investigate?" Lin Yan sat up subconsciously in a panic, "Who will do these things?"

"Give it to Zhong Hui." Ji Chongyan said.

Hearing this, Lin Yan's face froze suddenly: "It doesn't have to be like this, I'll be fine."

Although he knew that Chongyan didn't mean he didn't believe him, Lin Yan still had some confidence and arrogance in his own means because he relied on his own ability.

Handing over the matter at hand to Zhong Hui for no reason always makes me feel uncomfortable.

Ji Chongyan shook his head, without immediately explaining the reason for doing so, he just turned his head to look at Jiang Shaoyan, and asked, "Ayan came to look for me on purpose, but something happened?"

Jiang Shaoyan nodded, lifted the crutch tightly wrapped in white cloth in her hand, and said, "I came here for the crutch in Mrs. Yang's hand."

As the girl said, she tore off a corner of the white cloth, revealing the crutch inside: "It's the crutch that Mrs. Yang didn't hesitate to kill!"

Lin Yan was dumbfounded: Of course he didn't know about this matter, but he didn't expect that Miss Jiang Si made such a big fuss, and besides letting that little Xuebai get away with success, she actually let all these things come out.He then said that no matter how old Mrs. Yang didn't take human life as human life, she didn't even cover it with a fig leaf, but she just wanted to find the appearance of "Dali", which always felt a little weird!
Bad and stupid are two different things, some people are bad but not stupid.There must be another reason for doing such ridiculous things.

Right now, for a crutch to do such a great thing, this crutch must be very important to Mrs. Yang.

Lin Yan took the crutch, looked at the crutch wrapped in layers of white cloth, and couldn't help being curious.

"Let Zhong Hui do the affairs of Dali Temple, and you do the outside affairs." Ji Chongyan pointed to the crutches handed to Lin Yan, and said, "The medicine merchants must look through the files, so just leave it to Zhong Hui." Speaking of this, Ji Chongyan paused, looked at Lin Yan, and explained, "How to find what you want without being discovered under your majesty's nose, this hour will be better."

How could he not believe his good friend who has been with him for many years?In terms of ability, Ji Chongyan doesn't think Lin Yan will be much inferior to Zhong Hui in time, but this matter is not as simple as just checking, but to find what he wants to find without anyone noticing it, without being discovered.

"You don't have to worry about this when you're doing things outside. You go and check on people from other races and things about Zhang's family." Ji Chongyan said, "Check things other than drug dealers."

Only then did Lin Yan understand, and touched the white cloth wrapped around his body: Although he was not injured, the white cloth was just wrapped around it for outsiders to see, but this white cloth actually reminded him of the danger of this matter.

"I see." Lin Yan nodded, and said to Ji Chongyan, "You can rest assured that you have left it to me! Go do your own thing and be careful."

Secrets are justifiable reasons, and the matter of soldiers and horses is the most critical point. This matter determines whether they can stand in front of people openly and have the opportunity to speak the truth.

Without soldiers and horses, there is no chance to even open your mouth.
