Chapter 113
While listening, Dongmei picked up the thin-mouthed copper pot on the small stove and poured water into the teapot to make tea, then poured a cup for several people, and then pulled out the drawer under the small table to take out preserved fruits and pastries.

"This road is not close, you have something to eat first."

Zhao Wanchun thoughtfully brought snacks for several people, and then continued, "Phantom Thief Yizhimei, this person is not simple, but he has a lot of good deeds."

"Sister Chun'er, what else? Tell me quickly?"

The second sister Qing Qiang's eyes were shining, she took Zhao Wanchun's hand and shook it a few times, eager to hear about her idol's deeds, Qing Li curled her lips, is this the girl Huai Chun's heart?Didn't you say that you can kill people like hemp, according to your mood?How did the second sister omit all of this?

"Miss, let me tell you, servant girl!"

Dongmei spoke quickly, she took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, and then said with high spirits, "Everyone in the capital knows about this, and our lady has close relatives in the capital, so I heard it."

"and then?"

The second sister, Qing Qiang, couldn't wait any longer. She fixed her eyes on Dongmei, waiting for the next one. Seeing this, Dongmei stopped being tricky and continued, "If you say that the strange thief Yizhimei is a small thief, if you say he The strange thing is that when he steals things, he doesn't necessarily need the value of the things. Sometimes he may take the cheapest ones, as long as she looks pleasing to her eyes. The mandarin ducks embroidered are not as good as the water ducks, because of this, our young lady's cousin cried for a long time, fearing that it would be spread, and people would say that it is not good to be a female celebrity, which would affect her reputation."

Sister Chun'er's cousin should also be a lady from the official family. Qingli nodded her head, which is understandable, but how did she know that the phantom thief Yizhimei stole it?

"It's his habit to leave behind a poem every time Kaitou Yizhimei steals it, and it's said that the writing is so flamboyant that it's comparable to everyone else's."

"Sister Dongmei, I heard that the Phantom Thief has a plum blossom with plum blossoms between his eyebrows. Is this true?"

The second sister, Qing Qiang, had already been brainwashed by the officials before, and now seeing that Dongmei's words were more reliable, she hurriedly asked again.

"That's nonsense. It's so popular in the market, but it's actually not. Wouldn't it be easy to recognize the plum blossoms between the eyebrows?"

Dongmei waved her hand, she didn't know what she thought of, first she had fun for a while, and saw that several people were staring at her with hope, so she continued to gossip, "The most interesting thing is not this, although every poem is very interesting Cai, in fact, is still hated, because every time he steals, he likes to post it in the downtown area for display, so everyone in the capital is in danger for a while, fearing that his privacy will be known."

"Then what's the funniest thing? And does it depend on your mood if you kill someone?"

Qingli rested her chin and urged Dongmei, it was really not a good feeling to be up and down in the middle of her speech.

"There are four beauties in the capital city. Among them is Miss Shan from the Duke's Mansion. She is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She is also relatively proud. Her talent and learning have been praised by the current emperor, so her status has risen as the tide rises. She is a young talent. I don't like it, so I'm over twenty and haven't married yet, so I really dragged myself into an old girl."

Dongmei cleared her throat, saw that everyone was listening seriously, with a sense of accomplishment, and continued, "Once, she happened to read the poem left by the phantom thief Yizhimei after she stole it, and immediately took it as her confidant, and in the There are rumors in the capital that if the phantom thief Yizhimei can steal a piece of her calligraphy and painting, she will marry her!"

Dongmei herself became more and more excited as she talked, "All of a sudden, the capital exploded, and Miss Shan, one of the four beauties in the capital, was going to marry a little thief who didn't stand out. Everyone is waiting to see the excitement, and of course there are some admirers of Miss Shan who beat their feet and beat their breasts, and get drunk in restaurants all day long."

"Did that branch of plum be stolen?"

"Listen to me carefully."

Dongmei paused, and then said again, "But after waiting and waiting, there was no news. Everyone speculated that Yizhimei might not be in the capital, so they didn't hear the news... But, just before the Chinese New Year that year, Yizhimei once again Appeared, and stole Miss Shan's calligraphy and painting, hanging in the downtown!"

"Then, Miss Shan married Zhimei?"

The second sister, Qing Qiang, gave Qing Li the pastry in her hand. Her face was flushed, her eyes were bright, and she was concentrating on waiting for the follow-up results.

"If that's the case, I wouldn't say it's funny, but beautiful, haha."

Dongmei shook her head, "Phantom Thief Yizhimei posted Miss Shan's calligraphy and painting in the downtown area, and wrote two lines of poems on it - the king gave birth to me before I was born, and I gave birth to the king to grow old."

"Pfft..."

Qingli was eating snacks, when she heard these words, she almost burst out, Zhao Wanchun who was on the side hurriedly delivered a handkerchief, and said angrily, "Dongmei, look, you are teasing Sister Li."

"Haha, this is too... This is a dislike for Miss Shan!"

The second sister quickly came to her senses, and the cousin Qingju on the side also pursed her lips and let out a low laugh.

"Yes, that's why Miss Shan has become a laughing stock in the capital. The old man felt ashamed of her, so he quickly engaged her. Because he lost his reputation and was as proud as Miss Shan, his life was quite miserable."

From this point of view, this Yizhimei is really strange, and she does things more viciously. She doesn't leave any messages for women at all, so killing people is only determined by whether they are pleasing to the eye. Qingli said that no matter whether others believe it or not, she It is a letter.

"Don't just talk and eat some snacks. This is the cook's new style, walnut crisp, and it's pretty good."

Zhao Wanchun greeted, and carefully brought the plate to Qingli's side, "Here, little greedy cat, this is specially prepared for you, it's your favorite."

"Thank you, sister Chun'er."

Qingli was not polite, she was in a hurry for breakfast, she didn't have enough, and now she just had some food, and Dongmei, the chatterbox, rattled about a bunch of deeds of the strange thief, and finally remembered something and said, "I sent it over last time. Pearls, our lady likes them very much, and I am going to go back to the jewelry shop to wear them as hairpins."

"It's not worth anything, as long as Sister Chun'er likes it."

The second sister also followed suit with a few words of politeness, because Mo Qingju didn't feel restrained because of the Phantom Thief Yizhimei as a foreshadowing.

The location of Guangji Temple is relatively remote. It is in the suburbs of Xiaofeng County, on the mountainside of Yuping Mountain. There are official roads where horse-drawn carriages go all the way, but there are few people. Today is not the first day or the fifteenth day of the lunar new year. Obviously not that much.

At the foot of the mountain, there are stalls in twos and threes doing small business, all of which are embroidery, safety knots, and those who buy incense, cakes, and small pendants for the occasional needs of pilgrims.

Zhao Wanchun took Qingli and the others out of the carriage, followed by the maidservant, and they all stood still, looking at the looming Guangji Temple halfway up the mountain. From Qingli's position, they could only see the temple covered by towering ancient trees. The blue-gray temple ridge.
