Beauty has a disease

Chapter 50

Lian Ying thought for a while, then shook her head and nodded, "There is one more thing. It is said that there is a guest coming from the house, and it is the niece of Madam's natal family."

"Zheng Pianran?"

"It seems to be called that name."

Zheng Pianran, the second daughter of the second son of Old General Zheng, is also the niece of Zheng Yuemian, the mistress of the Duan Mansion. The two families are related by marriage.

However, when King Gong rebelled, General Zheng put on his armor again to quell the rebellion. In the end, the rebellion subsided, and General Zheng died in battle. The two families walked around a lot less, and only walked around during the New Year's Eve.

Old General Zheng, that is, her maternal grandfather, had been a soldier all his life and made great achievements in battle, but he never accepted the title of knighthood from the court, and was posthumously named Marquis of Yongping by the court after his death.

However, this Marquis of Yongping is a posthumous title, not hereditary, and a general is a position, not a title. Therefore, after General Zheng and his eldest son died in battle, the second son carried the coffin back to his hometown and buried him in Qinghe, his ancestral home. He has no official position, so he never returned to Beijing and settled in Qinghe.

Speaking of which, she had met Zheng Pianran before, but she didn't know her identity at that time, let alone Zheng Pianran.

I don't know how the years have passed, what that delicate little girl has grown into.

"Then... when is Miss going back?"

During the time when Ember was away, Lian Ying pretended to be her and came to Xuntian Temple, Yuan Yue followed Lian Ying, and Lian Shuang stayed in Duanfu to deal with emergencies.

Ember thought for a moment, and said, "Wait until the eighth day of April, and go back specially for the banquet, it's considered important."

"You go back to the government to report a letter first, and then go to help me with something."

"But according to the lady's order."

Ember said: "After returning to the mansion, I told my grandfather that I have returned, and I will return home soon... Forget it, I will directly repair a book, and you can take it home and give it to my grandfather."

"As for what I want you to do."

Ember used the ready-made pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk, tore off the paper on which half of the Buddhist scriptures had been copied, laid a new piece of paper on it, and began to write.

She closed her eyes, but her hand kept running, "You should know why I've been traveling around for a while, I need you to go to the places I've been, and check the connection between the local black market and brothels In the case of an underground lawsuit, remember not to startle the snake, and put your own safety first."

Lian Ying replied yes, and asked where the black building and brothel were located.

Ember recalled in her mind that she was blindfolded and thrown onto the car. Although she couldn't tell the direction, based on the speed she felt at that time, the different sounds and bumps of the wheels rolling over the ground, and the sounds of the surrounding environment, Ember Run it through your mind quickly.

The speed is not very fast. It takes only two hours to get on the bus at night and arrive at the black market at night. It radiates around the village as the center, and a general area is determined.

At that time, the wheels rolled over the ground. It was quite gentle at first, and it was a flat soil surface. Later, there were obvious bumps. It should be crushed by stones and stones. A wild road, but she speculated that it was a narrow hill and mountain road. She also heard the sound of frogs and shallow water on the road...

Ember suddenly opened his eyes, "It's Linyang Road."

-

"On Linyang Road."

Flour-faced peach blossoms are charming to the eye, the stream passes through the mountain, and the stones on the surface are washed, and the wooden house next to it is about ten feet away from the ground, and the house is only built on one floor.
There is a low table facing the door, and a string of wind chimes is hung on it. The wind passes through the hall, bringing a burst of crispness.

Liu Huaian was lazily leaning on the low table with a book in his hand, and his clear voice was accompanied by the crisp sound of wind chimes: "So it's Linyang Road."

"Linyang Road is not far from here, so it's not surprising to be able to touch the sky."

Zhan Shuyun was already awake at this moment, his upper body was naked at this moment, there were all kinds of medicine bottles in front of him, and the powdered medicine was shaking off from time to time, and he was wrapping a bandage around the wound on his body at the moment.

Similar to Ember, his upper body is also covered with criss-cross scars, some new and some old, and he is obviously the one who is often injured.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your help."

Liu Huai'an waved his hand casually, he said: "This is what Zhang Kong did by himself, if you want to thank him, go to thank Chang Kong, thank me for what."

"After all, it is the eagle raised by His Highness."

Liu Huaian changed his posture, and his eyes never moved from the page from the beginning to the end, "Brother Shu Yun has only been in the officialdom for a few years, and he likes the compliments and politeness in the officialdom. Didn't he say that you don't need to call me Your Highness."

"The gift cannot be neglected."

Liu Huai'an shook his head, he put down the book, turned his head to look at Zhan Shuyun, and said with a smile: "What kind of impolite, Brother Shu Yun never talked about etiquette in front of me before."

"I'll call you Brother Shu Yun, but you should call me Huai'an by my cousin, it's just a matter of calling you different."

Zhan Shuyun followed the good advice, "Huai'an."

Liu Huai'an nodded in satisfaction, clapped his hands and smiled, "That's right."

Zhan Shuyun simply treated the wound and put back the tattered clothes, but was stopped by Liu Huai'an, "You can't wear these clothes anymore, we are about the same size, let me give you a set of clothes."

As he spoke, Liu Huai'an took out a set of clean white clothes from the side cabinet and threw them to Zhan Shuyun, glanced at the large and small bandages wrapped around him, and sighed: "You don't need to go to the battlefield. Come back, it seems that this Dali Temple is not easy to mess with."

There is nothing good for an official, especially in a place like Dali Temple.

"It's all skin trauma, it doesn't matter."

Liu Huai'an nodded in agreement, he was silent, and suddenly remembered the girl who mistook him for a woman, so he asked: "Who is the girl who came back with Mr. Zhan, she is so courageous."

Zhan Shuyun agrees in his heart, he is quite courageous, but his mouth is poor.

"But she offended Huai An?"

Liu Huai'an shook his head, he poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Zhan Shuyun, "How can she offend me, I just think she's a little..." He thought carefully about some words that could describe her, "...chic."

Zhan Shuyun smiled imperceptibly, drank water to moisten his throat, and got down from the couch, "It's quite unique."

he agreed.

"She is the secret guard in Duan Ge's old mansion. Because she is quite capable, I borrowed her to help investigate the case."

Liu Huai'an nodded, secretly thought that she was a secret guard, no wonder a girl like Zhan Shuyun fainted and she was still sober.

In addition to the family soldiers who meet the regulations in the noble mansions in Beijing, each family will also raise some hidden guards if they have the conditions. It is reasonable to say that this is unreasonable, but these years the eunuchs have been rampant, and the dark guards have become people in the capital. Unspoken thing.

After all, family soldiers are inferior to dark guards. Although both family soldiers and dark guards are good at martial arts, family soldiers mainly perform the duties of protecting the courtyard, while dark guards are good at hiding and killing people. They can protect the life of their masters when necessary. One of the means of life-saving can achieve the effect of surprise.

So Liu Huai'an didn't react much when Zhan Shuyun said that Duan Chang's mansion had hidden guards.

It's just that as a hidden guard, the girl's character is really a bit eye-catching.

"Her name is Yu Mo?"

Zhan Shuyun looked up at him, "...she said her name was Yu Chu."

Liu Huaian was still not surprised, instead he smiled and said, "So, did she lie to brother Shu Yun or me?"

Zhan Shuyun thought about it, Xin Dao was probably deceived.

Liu Huaian: "At least the surnames are still the same, let's assume her surname is Yu."

Liu Huai'an pointed at Zhan Shuyun and joked, "Brother Shu Yun, do you know how you fell into my hands?"
