Si Tian Guan

    The water was almost cold when I came out of the tub.

    Liu Chongming was afraid of freezing the person again, so he tucked the person in the bathrobe into the bed, and when he went outside to bring tea and came back, he saw Qu Chenzhou still with his eyes open, and he looked up in a daze looking at the drapery

    "Sleep, aren't you tired?"

    Qu Chenzhou sat up and took a sip, and pulled the quilt all the way to his chin: "It's daytime, why are you sleeping?"

    "You can be promiscuous during the day, why can't you sleep during the day? Liu Chongming teased, and slowly took off his wet clothes, and said, "I haven't had time to tell you about Sanfu just now. Can't sleep because of this? "

    Qu Chenzhou hummed.

    "I have been to Chaoyang Palace for divination several times, but I haven't been able to see Sanfu, let alone the hexagram, I don't even know what it looks like."

    "Of course." Liu Chongming took another set of clothes and came over to dry his hair.

      , I'll take a look at it then..."

    Qu Chenzhou sighed softly: "But what's the use of seeing it? This time Concubine Yu is reduced to Song Zhaoyi, and she will surely bring Sanfu by her side."

    Liu Chongming pushed him to sit up, folded his hair with both hands, and began to braid his hair loosely.

    "Yes. Although there are not many people around her now, it is still very simple to let Sanfu avoid you."

    "Chongming, have you considered one thing?"

    "What?"

    "No matter what Song Jiaan's thoughts are, Zhou Huaishan has already started a family here, has a wife and children, but he was ruined by Mu Jingyan overnight, wouldn't he have any resentment? Why? Why don't you just follow Concubine Yu quietly and honestly?"

    "Of course I thought about it, otherwise I wouldn't think about going there today."

    Liu Chongming clapped his hand away and slowly put on his clothes one by one. The opportunity is very precious. After returning to the capital, I am afraid that it will not be available for a while.

    "In the memory I can dream of, Sanfu not only talked about you, but also mentioned King Huai many times."

    "He said—I know he's not doing it right, but what can I do, he's my flesh and blood after all."

     "Also said - even my appearance is due to him, but what can I do, I only have a son like him."

    "He also said that he was doing something wrong, and that was the root of my Zhou family."

    Qu Chenzhou quickly understood the meaning of these words.

    "You mean, Zhou Huaishan knows that Mu Jingyan is his son, but this man takes the continuation of the incense as his top priority. So even for the only son, he is willing to endure humiliation, isn't it?"

    "Yes, this man is also a paranoid lunatic."

    "I came here today, but I wanted to see if Zhou Huaishan's son could possibly escape the evil hands, or I was too imaginative."

    Qu Chenzhou had someone holding hands, went to sit at the table, was stuffed with a mouthful of snacks, and it was not until he swallowed that he could sort out the tiny clue.

    "Chongming, did you pay attention to that well..."

    Liu Chongming naturally remembers that the rope of the well is so rotten that it will break as soon as it is pulled.

    "I'm not sure if I think too much, but in that well, the well rope on the reel was almost loose."

    He frowned: "Indeed, what's wrong?"

    "You haven't used a well, so naturally you won't notice it. But as far as I know, the well rope is often longer than the depth of the well. So unless it's intentional, even if the well dries up, the barrel falls. At the bottom of the well, it is impossible to put all the well ropes on the head."

    Liu Chongming has never hit the water with his own hands. Hearing what he said was serious, he didn't realize what was wrong at first, until he saw Qu Chenzhou in a posture of grabbing the rope with both hands to climb, Just woke up horrified.

    If someone hadn't entered the yard and deliberately let out the well rope, there would only be one possibility. After putting it to the end, I borrowed strength.

    "But...but everyone is dead, who is hiding in the well? Could it be at that time? Did someone really get away with it?"

    He also hopes that a miracle will come, but the few bones just now can't deceive anyone, especially the four children recorded in the household registration yellow book are gone.

    With King Huai's cautious character, he must have figured out everything about Zhou Huaishan earlier, including his character and family, and it is certainly impossible to allow the flaws of silence.

    Without blood relatives, there is no second way to impress Zhou Huaishan.

     Qu Chenzhou also couldn't give answers to these questions, he could only silently look at the sparse pedestrians on the street.

    "Reminder!"

    He suddenly stood up and pushed the window wider.

    "Have you seen the man with the navy blue head! Go and find him!"

    "What else do you like to eat, Mr. Yang, don't be polite to me, just ask Xiao Er."

    "You don't have to ask Mr. to sit down."

    The middle-aged man wearing a futou across from him waved his hand, took a chopstick, and pressed Liu Chongming's shoulder enthusiastically.

    "My little brother and I are like old friends, it's too outlandish to be called Mr. Yang Tong!" He pointed to himself: "How old are you, call me big brother! Are you affectionate? no!"

      what.

    I can only resign to my fate: "Is Brother Yang from this town?"

    "That's right, I've lived here for more than 30 years, I was born here, and I haven't moved anywhere!"

    "It doesn't look like it. You are very handsome and majestic. I didn't expect this small county to have a character like a big brother. It's really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger."

    Yang Tong was so praised that he couldn't find the north, and he was overjoyed: "The little brother is also handsome, looks like he came from a big family, where does he live?"

     "Brother Yang has won the prize, he only has a few small coins." Liu Chongming said modestly: "My home is in Beijing."

    "The capital is good, there are noble people everywhere at the foot of the emperor, and I don't know what they look like. Have you seen it, little brother?"

    "I saw a few when I was eating, but they were nothing more than two eyes and one nose."

      Going for business?"

    Liu Chongming asked curiously, "Which Shizi? Brother Yang still knows Shizi?"

    "Who else can do business here with us!"

    Yang Tong patiently instructed: "Of course it's Mr. Anding Hou Shizi! The eldest brother is now working in the shop of the eldest son. If the brother wants to follow, he will wrap it up with the eldest brother. A single leg hair will last you a lifetime."

    Liu Chongming nodded humbly: "Thank you, Brother Yang, for your suggestion, but I'm not here for business - I'm asking you about someone, and I also live in Shimao County, I don't know if you know Know."

    "Speak! I'll give you this meal! Big brother will help you to the end."

    "Qin Hua," Liu Chongming looked at his expression carefully and asked, "Do you have any impression of Qin Hua?"

    Yang Tong put his chopsticks in the bowl, frowned tightly, and looked Liu Chongming up and down several times: "Are you looking for him? What are you looking for him for?"

    "It's like this," Liu Chongming gestured behind the screen with his eyes: "Qin Hua's wife, Mrs. Zhang, is Jiannei's aunt. A few days ago, her father-in-law and mother-in-law died one after another, and Jiannei was too sad. , I thought of sending him to reminisce with his relatives, maybe to talk about his grief."

    Yang Tong also glanced at him and saw a figure sitting on the bed behind the screen, nodding clearly.

    "You are a loving and righteous husband. How long have you been with Zhang?"

    "Since I was married to me, I have never been in contact, and I have never seen this aunt. Going forward, I am young, and I don't remember it very clearly, it's probably a long time. I didn't see you."

    "That's no wonder," Yang Tong waved his hand: "You are late, people are long gone."

    "No more?" Liu Chongming asked, "What do you mean by no more?"

    "Who knows, then the family said that they were gone, and quietly moved away. They don't usually come to town for much time, and who knows when they leave."

    Liu Chongming was a little disappointed, and asked, "Have you seen them, Brother Yang?"

    "How come you haven't seen it?" Yang Tong was very puzzled by this question, "Qin Hua is very strange, and I didn't see him doing anything. Let's play together, seriously—"

    With a mysterious smile, he leaned forward and lowered his voice.

    "Qin Hua's stuff really has a set of tricks, so that those sisters always miss him, people are more popular than dead people."

    Liu Chongming moved in his heart and asked, "What is it?"

    "Come on, little brother, why are you pretending to be naive," Yang Tong took a sip of wine, blinked and smiled: "This room is full of that smell, you still pretend you don't know me say what?"

    Liu Chongming was stunned for a moment, only to realize what "that smell" was, and coughed a little embarrassingly: "Big Brother Yang's wife is still showing mercy."

    Yang Tong laughed: "I understand, I understand, the young couple can't help it in the daytime, and they're shy."

    "I haven't heard of it, so it's weird. It's okay for adults to be strict. Their children are still studying in the school. go away."

    Yang Tong ate for a while. Seeing that he was a little lost, he tapped with chopsticks.

    "So, no matter if you want to find someone, buy or sell, or get on the road with Shizi, then you should be more filial to his old man, or let him look at you, maybe I can help you find it."

    Liu Chongming smiled wryly: "Even if he is the prince, how can it be so easy to find people."

    "Then why not," Yang Tong expressed dissatisfaction with his doubts: "The prince's estate is full of shops all over the world. Once a portrait is posted, isn't it easy to find someone to come out?"

    "Portrait?" Liu Chongming heard two key words "Where are their portraits?"

    "This is not easy to do? Little brother really fell today!"

      All the murderous portraits came to me to paint."

    "Can you draw Qin Hua's appearance?" Liu Chongming felt that the blood from his whole body rushed to the top of his head.

    "Qin Hua always hangs out with us. Of course I remember him, but my sister-in-law and several children can only have a general outline."

    The edge of the bed inside the screen also rang.

    None of them thought that there would be another village here.

    Yang Tong ate and drank, pushed open the bowl, and let Xiao Er pass the brush and ink in. Within an hour, all six drawings were completed.

    Liu Chongming sealed some more money, politely sent the person out, and rushed back to the guest room with a gust of wind, Qu Chenzhou had placed the portraits side by side and let him see two of them.

    One is Qin Hua and the other is the third son of the Qin family.

    My hands trembled a little when I bent the sinking boat to unfold the curled edge.

    "Chongming, look at the two of them..." He looked up at Liu Chongming: "Do you feel a bit like someone?"

    In each other's eyes, they both saw a name.

    Know the taste.
