The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

The milky white lamb soup is thick and not greasy. It is sprinkled with half chopped green onion, scooped a spoonful of lamb fried cornel, and sesame sesame biscuits topped with a layer of crispy. It is really rare in the late autumn when the temperature drops sharply delicious.

Sun Shaozong used a soup spoon to press the cornel floating on the surface to the bottom of the soup, smash out the crunchy cornel seeds, and then picked out the softened cornel one by one, and put together a small pile on the round table. It was a pleasure to eat the sesame seed.

Seeing a bowl of mutton soup quickly see the bottom, Sun Shaozong was about to greet another bowl of pomegranate. Suddenly he found a few of Ruan Rong on the opposite side, stirring them back and forth with a spoon, as if to see the mutton soup out of flowers. Similar.

He took Ruan Rong's bowl without hesitation, and asked while adding the seasoning: "What? Is this mutton soup not in line with your appetite?"

"It's not a disagreement, it's just too greasy."

As Ruan Rong said, she raised her chin to Xiangling and Sister You, and said, "Okay, I really can't eat it, so let someone exchange two bowls of rice porridge."

Pomegranate was busy leading people to take down the two bowls of mutton soup and replace them with two bowls of porridge made of Bijingmi.

This is obviously thoughtful to the two daughters, but Sun Shaozong and Ruan Rong get along day and night, how can she not know the little abacus in her heart, she really wants to enjoy this closeness exclusively, and does not want Sun Shaozong to eat the leftover lamb soup from the second daughter.

However, Sun Shaozong would naturally not pierce through such innocuous and careful thinking.

Pressing the cornel to the bottom of the bowl in the same way, looking at the golden cornel seeds, slowly surfaced with the oil stars, and casually said: "The flower fair has just started at the prison temple, if you guys are at home If you are idle and boring, you might as well go over and take a look."

Second Sister You was fine, but Xiang Ling suddenly jumped for joy, but she didn't dare to respond, she just looked at Ruan Rong bafflingly.

Ruan Rong hesitated for a while, but still shook his head and said: "Forget it, Master Nephew and the others are going to move out these two days. Although it may not be necessary for us, it is not good to go out and play around at this time."

"Then go back in two days."

Sun Shaozong took a bite of the biscuits, and said vaguely: "This Flower Fair is supervised by Jia Fucheng and will last until the tenth of September."

Ruan Rong just nodded, and took the opportunity to pinch Xiangling's face, and laughed: "This is what you want, don't forget to write a few more poems for the master to see, and let He knew that the lady in our family was not in vain."

Hearing this, Xiang Ling immediately remembered the task Sun Shaozong had arranged yesterday. For a while, her cheeks were hot and she hurriedly lowered her head to cover it with the rice porridge.

The family chuckled and ate their breakfast. Sun Shaozong asked Ruan Rong again and learned that Sun Chengye and Yu Qian were planning to transport their luggage to the new house today and officially move in tomorrow morning.

He left Zhang Cheng and the carriage at home, and rode to the Prince's Mansion on horseback alone.

Due to a heavy rain yesterday, the street was still a bit slippery and muddy. Sun Shaozong didn't dare to gallop his horse when he was out of the house. Fortunately, not far from the Prince's House, he simply tightened the reins and let the horse kick and kick. Measured in the street step by step.

Although the Great Zhou Dynasty can be called internal and external troubles, if you only look at the streetscape of Shuntian Mansion, it is much more prosperous than in previous years.

This is actually the follow-up effect of the flood last year. First, there are many people in Zhili who stayed in the capital to work hard; secondly, most of the relief supplies from the imperial court were transferred from Gyeonggi, creating a lot of jobs; The weather around Gyeonggi this year has been smooth, and the people have collected a few stones of grain, but the price of grain has risen instead of falling because of the victims.

To put it bluntly, the current prosperity of the capital is actually based on the suffering of hundreds of thousands of disaster-stricken people in Zhili.

"My lord, my lord, my lord!"

Being accustomed to the sensual civil suffering, I suddenly heard a few weird accents and looked up, but it was a peddler who was selling a few bird cages hanging on the side of the road.

Thinking of the many birds on the veranda of Rongguo Mansion, Sun Shaozong couldn't help but feel a little moved, so he looked forward with a pinch of horses.

When the hawker saw the business coming, he greeted him with a smile on his face, and said, "Lord, look at this, it was all made with great effort, each one is a coincidence! Come on, give it to this one. Lord said a blessing!"

With that, he took off an ebony cage and teased the red-collared and green-haired parrot inside.

"My lord, my lord, my lord!"

The bird flapped its wings and called twice, but it was the one just now.

"you……"

Sun Shaozong was about to ask the parrot if he would say something else. Suddenly he saw one of the cages, which turned out to be a gray sparrow, and he couldn't help wondering: "Why do you have a sparrow here? Is it possible? It also learns to speak?"

"Then you are embarrassed by it."

The hawker laughed and said, "But although it can't speak human words, it has a novel ability."

With that said, he took off the cage, caught the bird from it, fastened it with a thin thread, and threw the bird to the ground. The bird flapped its wings and pecked a small bird from the ground. The flag of the grimace, the neck swings up and down, and it's so cute.

This looks good, and more appealing to children than the talking parrot.

Sun Shaozong asked the price and saw that it was only two taels of silver, so he pointed to his home and asked the peddler to send Que'er to the house, and then asked Zhao Zhongji for the silver.

The hawker heard that it was Master Qingtian in person, so naturally he didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly entrusted the stall to his neighbor, and went away carrying the bird.

However, he said that Sun Shaozong was on the road again, and soon arrived in front of the Prince's Mansion. He was about to turn over and dismount, but he saw a young man wearing a python robe and jade belt coming out of the Prince's Mansion.

King Xinyang?

How can this guy dare to come to the Prince's Mansion to find it happy?

Sun Shaozong hurriedly took the horse to avoid it. After King Xinyang went out, he glanced at Sun Shaozong for a while. He probably didn't recognize Sun Shaozong's identity, and walked away from the eighth chair.

Watching King Xinyang's sedan chair go away, Sun Shaozong reached the corner of the door in amazement, handing the reins to the guard of the gate, and then curiously said: "Why is King Xinyang here again? His Royal Highness is not here. Is it forbidden for him to step into the mansion gate?"

"I heard that it was Uncle Guo who helped make the rounds."

How could Uncle Zhao go round for King Xinyang?

Sun Shaozong was even more puzzled, but the details of this were not something a gatekeeper could know.

Therefore, he crossed the threshold and entered the mansion, asked the steward on duty in the front yard, and learned that the prince was having morning tea in the flower hall of the backyard, so he rushed over.

He is now the crown prince's number one confidant, and his journey is naturally unimpeded, but when he reaches the door of the flower hall, he sees that the prince is not the only one inside and the prince is also sitting with him.

Sun Shaozong was hesitating whether to let people in. The crown prince saw his majestic figure with sharp eyes. He immediately got up and greeted with joy, “It’s just right that Aiqing is here! I have some difficulties here. Aiqing helps analyze and analyze."

Seeing that the princess was silent, she retreated behind the screen and made it clear that she wanted to ‘listen to the government’, so Sun Shaozong strode in and bowed to the court and said: "Weichen has seen your majesty."

Immediately afterwards, he arched his body again, raised his head slightly, looked at the prince and asked, "But I don't know what difficulties my Highness encountered."

"Isn't it just the servant of Xinyang King Wu Chengxun!"

Speaking of the name of'Xinyang King Wu Chengxun', the crown prince flashed some contempt, and then he took Sun Shaozong to the table: "Aiqing sit down first, and then listen to you alone!"

Sun Shaozong declined a few words according to the rules, and he sat down at the table honestly and unceremoniously, and said curiously: "I heard that the king of Xinyang asked the country's uncle to intercede, what is going on?"

"Humph."

The prince sneered: "It was really agreed by Ai Qing, that Wu Chengxun's princess was seriously ill. It is said that she died soon, but this servant is more shameless than you think!"

But it turned out that after King Beijing wrote the letter ‘falling the cow’ a few days ago, King Xinyang finally recognized the situation after struggling a few days ago. So Princess Xinyang, who was okay a few days ago, suddenly became seriously ill yesterday.

This is nothing. King Xinyang found Zhao Guoji again immediately, and he said in secret that he would marry Zhao Guoji's concubine as his wife after the funeral of the Niu's daughter.

And the only request he made was that he hoped that Uncle Zhao Guo could say a few words in front of the prince to resolve the misunderstanding between the two brothers.

This Uncle Zhao Guo was originally a shallow-eyed person, otherwise he would not be in the court, and there was almost no sense of existence.

Therefore, after learning that the daughter of the concubine can become the royal family of the prince, and even have such a slight opportunity to get involved in the throne of the maternal ritual world, he immediately moved his heart.

This was the scene of King Xinyang returning to the Prince's Mansion this morning.

When Sun Shaozong heard this, he couldn't help taking a high look at King Xinyang. It seemed that King Xinyang was not completely without a city. It was just that he was stunned by the pie falling from the sky, and he made an impatient stupidity. behavior.

"But I don't know King Xinyang, what did you say to His Highness just now?"

"What else can it be?"

The emperor sniffed his nose and said: "The left and right are just wagging their tails in front of the lonely, begging for mercy, just this little courage, at the beginning, there was also the face and the lonely to fight for storage. If it wasn't for the face of my uncle, I would have driven this shameless person out!

Hehe~

He killed his wife for power, although he was a standard scum, but didn't you also sleep with the uncle's concubine?

Sun Shaozong slandered in his heart, but said solemnly on his face: "His Royal Highness must never underestimate the enemy! From the perspective of Weichen, this King of Xinyang is afraid that he still has some scheming."

"He is naturally scheming!"

The prince sneered and said: "Otherwise, the Niu's daughter has not died, so I will decide on my uncle's daughter first!"

Having said that, he rolled his eyes behind the screen with disdain, and said angrily: "For such a shameless and shameless bandit, there are people who are embarrassed to persuade the lone to buy horse bones from his daughter."

Sun Shaozong knew that he was satirizing the princess, how dare he go along with this topic?

Grinning pretentiously, he asked, "Is it really set?"

"what?"

"Weichen is saying that the marriage between King Xinyang and Zhao Guo's concubine has really been decided?"

"Naturally..."

The prince was halfway talking, feeling that Sun Shaozong would not be aimless, so he frowned and hesitated and said, "Could he still dare to regret it?"

Sun Shaozong said: "The Niu family's daughter is not dead right now, not to mention that he has to wait for the Niu family's funeral before being hired. Why is it difficult to drag it for two or three years inside and out?

"In the meantime, for the sake of his family's reputation, Uncle Zhao will never spread the marriage contract."

"If your Highness is in sight by then, he will naturally not go back, but will run the marriage arbitrarily."

"But if the concubine in the palace gives birth to other princes..."

Speaking of this, Sun Shaozong paused slightly, and after the prince changed his color, he continued: "Since he can pull down his face and marry Zhao's prostitutes as his wife, he can naturally also secretly ask for girls from the Wang, Li, and Liu families!"

These three, plus the Jia family of Rongguo Mansion, are the natal families of the four ‘seeded players’.

"What a thief!"

The prince patted the table and jumped to talk, pacing and cursing angrily: "The lonely thinks that he has a heart of regret, but he never thought he would have played such an abacus!"

The more he talked, the more annoyed he became. He kicked the spring bench suddenly, and greeted with hatred: "Come on, Uncle Guo Guo...!"

"Your Highness wait a minute!"

Sun Shaozong hurriedly stopped and said, "This is just a speculation by the minister, and he may not..."

The prince raised his hand and said without any doubt: "Aiqing has always been very accurate, and this time there must be no mistake! What's more, with the shame of being a servant, he is absolutely capable of selling his own goods. come out!"

Having said that, he was ready to order people to invite Uncle Zhao Guo to expose King Xinyang's face in person.

"His Royal Highness."

Sun Shaozong once again blocked and said: "The minister said this inference, not that he wanted you to break with King Xinyang, but that he hoped that you could do everything you could and tie him to death on us!"

"Tie to us?"

The prince said suspiciously: "What do you mean by this?"

"Although King Xinyang was launched by His Majesty to separate the kings from the Niu family, he does not have any real power in his hands, but in the end it is a prominent nobleman. If he can be accepted as a running dog, first, it can consolidate the momentum of his Highness; Coming can also demonstrate His Royal Highness's maneuvering skills; are the three..."

Sun Shaozong said with a smile: "If there is something dangerous~www.readwn.com~, you might as well use King Xinyang as a shield and ask the way!"

This is the bottom line, in fact, it is recommended that the prince's daughter buy horse bones, and promised the refuge of the king of Xinyang.

However, in the eyes of the prince, Sun Shaozong's rhetoric can be heard more than that of the prince, so he asked without thinking, "How can the lonely use the plan?"

Sun Shaozong smiled and said: "First send someone to monitor King Xinyang's every move. If King Xinyang, as expected by his minister, secretly associates with the natal families of the four concubines, his Royal Highness can use this to make King Xinyang obediently submit. "

"If King Xinyang had never had such thoughts, we might as well use his name and secretly lead him to lead a red thread for him. Anyway, there is Uncle Zhao here as a testimony, and he can't explain it even if he is full of mouths."

"Hahaha!"

After the prince heard it, he couldn't help but laughed, and personally held the pot to pour a cup of tea for Sun Shaozong, and praised: "Aiqing really is my son's house! Come on, I will use tea instead of wine. Let's drink this cup!"

As he said, he raised his head and poured the tea in.

After both of them put down their tea cups, the prince found another spring stool and sat down, and asked, "By the way, how come Aiqing is so coincidental?"

I can finally get to the point!

Sun Shaozong immediately got up and said solemnly: "In fact, the Weichen came here to confess his guilt to His Highness."

"Sue? What crime?"

The prince was confused.

However, he saw Sun Shaozong bowed and said: "The former Japanese minister privately borrowed the name of His Highness, and rejected the instructions of King Zhongshun to assist him and frame the Niu Family of the Zhen Guo Mansion."

"what?!"

The prince's face suddenly sank, and he said in annoyance: "Don't you know, Gu now wants to smash the corpse of the cow family into pieces?!"
