Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 410
Everyone couldn't see the clue, so they could only rest their minds and half-believe.

Many people even decided to go to Yujie tomorrow to see how the situation would develop.

In the palace, the official Zhao Duan had already heard about the ribbons falling from the sky after the strong wind, and even a ribbon was presented to the imperial court.

After reading it, Zhao Duan felt a little familiar. He just felt like he had heard of this Baiwei tea shop somewhere.Before he could ask, the minister's comments had already given him the answer.

"Isn't this the tea shop that distributed Baijia rice to ward off chicken plague? This is another novelty."

"What novelty, don't be a demon moth."

"What is Ditai Ganquan? I've never heard of it."

The minister who received the note the day before couldn't help thinking about what the person who distributed the note wanted to do.

After thinking about it for a while, they felt that it would be better to report the matter. Distributing notes in such a large area to guide the people may have ulterior motives.

"Your Majesty, I also received a note at my home a few days ago, which also said this matter. I think this matter should be done by people, and it was done by the same person."

After hearing this, Zhao Duan was not nervous, but said with interest: "How can you see that?"

The minister replied: "First of all, this ribbon is made of Shu brocade from earlier years. This kind of fabric is sold in all major cloth shops in the city, and it is relatively common. The words on the ribbon are exactly the same as those on the note that day, so it is concluded that It should have come from the same person."

"But today's ribbons fell from the sky after the strong wind, and it cannot be done by human beings." Some people refuted it.

After hearing this, a red shadow flashed inexplicably in Zhao Duan's mind.

Manpower can't do it, so could it be the "sacred bird"? After all, it has an owner.

If it was what it did, then what is the master behind it planning.

There are quite a few people who have the same idea as Zhao Duan. Most of these people have seen the divine bird "show off its power" in the West Garden and have had close contact with the strong wind.

"When the wind blows, is there any phenomenon in the sky? Can you see the divine bird flying in the sky?" Zhao Duan asked.

Qin Pei, who was below, was heartbroken when he heard the words.

The officer in charge of the on-site inspection replied: "I haven't seen a vision, and I haven't seen a divine bird."

"This is amazing!" Zhao Duan sighed and wondered.

Could it be that this strong wind is really God's will!
But the colored ribbons that came with the strong wind didn't seem to have fallen from the sky. What's going on?

At this time, a minister said: "Your Majesty, this matter is strange. According to my opinion, it must be strictly investigated to prevent people with ulterior motives."

Zhao Duan thought, this should be the case, if it is really God's will, it would be a surprise, but if it is man-made. Openly inciting the people in Yujie, the intention is probably not small, he has to prevent problems before they happen, so he immediately ordered to let Kaifeng The government thoroughly investigated.

Seeing this, Qin Pei couldn't help feeling a little worried.

He was very afraid that it was Wen Shu who did it. In fact, he thought the same thing as Zhao Duan. He believed that this thing was probably done by the divine bird, and that the "sacred bird" can have any thoughts, and what it does must be instructed by the master behind it.

Once it is determined that the matter was done by Shenniao, she will bear the charge no matter whether Wen Shu ordered it or not.

On the other side, Wen Shu and Wang Ling had already returned from the tea shop.

After entering the gate of the city, she could only hear her say: "Lingling, you can go back by yourself, I want to visit my father in Kaifeng Mansion."

Wang Ling didn't ask any further questions. Although she still missed Father Wen a little bit, she swallowed her words of wanting to go with her when she thought it was a prison.

After breaking up with Wang Ling, Wen Shu went straight to the south of the city, but the last place he went was not the prison of Kaifeng Mansion, but turned a corner in front of Zhuque Street, and walked left into a quiet and deep alley.

At the end of the alley was the house of a criminal official. The criminal official exiled his whole family for his crime, and the house was vacant. However, in a place like Bianjing where every inch of money is very expensive, this house will not be vacant for long.

The current vacancy is just that after the imperial court takes over, certain documents must be completed before the transfer can be made, and this time will not exceed one month.

When he came to the gate of the house, Wen Shu looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he quickly knocked on the door three times rhythmically.

After a while, there was movement behind the door, the sound of a wooden peg falling.

Hearing the sound, Wen Shu quickly pushed the door open and entered, then quickly turned around and closed the door from the inside.

Then he looked at the receptionist in front of him, oh no, it was a bird, and asked, "Are you all right? What's wrong?"

Hong Ying shook his head, and raised his wings again.

Wen Shu understood what he meant, knelt down and patted its head, and said, "Thanks for your hard work, go back to the hut and rest, and leave the rest to me."

After finishing speaking, he put Hongying into the storage basket.

After entering the storage basket, Hong Ying immediately crouched in a corner and fell asleep.

Wen Shu was very distressed, but there was nothing he could do.

Originally, Hongying had just recovered from a serious injury, so she shouldn't let it create a "gale wind", because "fanning the wind" is a very exhausting task for Hongying.However, the situation is urgent and time is limited. She must maintain the initiative from the very beginning, otherwise it will be more difficult to come back if it is delayed.

After some thinking, and repeated communication with Hong Ying, the plan was formulated after making strong winds would only make it sleepy for two days and its wings sore for half a day without any other serious problems.

After putting Hongying back in the basket, Wen Shu didn't stay any longer, opened the door a crack, and when he confirmed that no one was passing by, he quickly flashed out of the door, closed the door, and left quickly.

After leaving the alley, she rushed to the prison of Kaifeng Mansion as originally planned.

Since she said she wanted to see her father, she couldn't break her promise, and since Qin Pei's private seal was still on her, it would be more convenient for her to visit the prison.

However, this private seal cannot be left on her for too long.

On the one hand, he promised Prime Minister Qin that he would return it when it was finished, and on the other hand, if someone accidentally watched it and suspected that she had a personal relationship with Qin Pei, her father's affairs would be in trouble.

Before going to Kaifeng Mansion, Wen Shu went to the street to buy some daily necessities, and then carried the big and small bags to the prison.

The two guards were still at the gate of the cell. Seeing Wen Shu approaching from a distance, the two greeted him, "Young lady is here again."

Wen Shu hurriedly put on a smiling face, and trotted forward: "Yes, I sent some change of clothes to my father, and I saw a tea seller by the way, so I brought some to the two officials. On this hot day, standing in the It's really hard here, it's time to go inside to make a cup of tea and rest your feet." After finishing speaking, he handed the small package in his hand to the nearest guard.

Guard A weighed the burden in his hands, and said with satisfaction: "I'm sorry for your troubles, but that's our fate. If you dare to rest during the duty period, go in quickly, your father must miss you too."

With Qin Pei's seal first, Wen Shu knew how to behave, the two guards let Wen Shu in without even reading the seal this time.

Wen Shu went into the prison and talked with Father Wen about the current situation and the development of the situation, and comforted him, and Wen Shu left the cell and went to the Qin Mansion.

It was still early in Qin's mansion. Wen Shu thought that Qin Pei was still working in the government affairs hall, and thought that it would be fine to hand over the private seal to Mrs. Qin, but unexpectedly found Qin Pei at home after entering the door.

And the first thing the other party said when they saw her was, "Did you do it?"
