Madam, let's steam buns together

When seeing Ling Che City in front of her for the first time, Zhang Xieyi directly denied it in her heart, thinking that Ling Che City was not the cousin who came to Chang'an City with Luo Situ before, but after noticing the strange expression of Han Shuang's hesitation, Zhang Xieyi suddenly began to doubt in her heart, and became less sure.

From now on, Zhang Xieyi looked at Ling Checheng more seriously, and scanned Ling Checheng's eyebrows and eyes bit by bit to compare and identify them.

After all, this world is a world without strange powers, chaos or magic. Transfiguration can only be changed based on the existing appearance, which means that no matter how superb the technique is, there can be traces to follow.

It has to be said that after such a careful comparison with a skeptical attitude, Zhang Xieyi really found that the child in front of him had quite a few similarities with that "Lingche City".

It's a pity that apart from this, there is nothing suspicious about Lingche City in front of me.

When the "Lingche City" in Chang'an City was making a big fuss in Chang'an City, Lingche City on the other side of Qianling Villa stayed quietly in his Qianling Villa. There are too many people who can testify for Lingche City—— Qianling Villa The servants and guests in the village, as well as the villagers near Qianling Villa.

After some verification, Ling Checheng was ruled out of suspicion, and he could go home safely immediately. Ling Jingxuan thanked everyone, and after being polite, he took Ling Checheng and left quickly.

The Ling family is from the rivers and lakes, and it is too troublesome to be involved in the court. Ling Jingxuan cooperated with the court so much because she didn't want to get involved, and brought Ling Che City to Chang'an City without delay, so as to solve Ling Che City as soon as possible. Suspicion on the body.

Now that the matter is over, it is natural to leave the Criminal Department immediately, as soon as possible.

Not long after the Ling family and his son left, Zhang Xieyi also left here. Instead of telling the other adults about his doubts, he secretly ordered his subordinates to investigate the whereabouts of Lingche City some time ago.

Zhang Xieyi still felt that this person was suspicious, this was the intuition aroused by Frost's hesitation.

On the other side, Ling Jingxuan didn't go back to the inn where she stayed after leaving the Ministry of Punishment, but walked straight in one direction without saying a word.

Obviously this is not the first time he has come to Chang'an City.

Ling Checheng didn't know where Ling Jingxuan was going, didn't know what Ling Jingxuan was going to do, Ling Checheng didn't dare to ask Ling Jingxuan these two questions, he just walked quietly by Ling Jingxuan's side all the time.

As long as Ling Jingxuan didn't speak out to drive him away first, Ling Checheng would not take the initiative to leave.

What Ling Jingxuan was going to do at the place she was going to was supposed to be something shameless, and she didn’t need to hide it from Ling Checheng, so Ling Jingxuan didn’t express any opinion about Ling Checheng being by her side. The tavern is sideways.

Knock on the wooden door, three times urgent and one slow, and after repeating it about two times, the wooden door was opened from the inside.

Ling Checheng smelled the smell of alcohol in the air, and thought maliciously, could it be that his father wanted to drink secretly?After all, when she was at home, Erniang always controlled her father to drink, not letting him drink too much, and she always stopped after a little taste.

This is just a small evil thought in Ling Checheng's heart. In fact, he knows clearly in his heart that this is impossible. Ling Jingxuan is not a person who is addicted to alcohol, nor is he someone who would come to a pub just to drink. , This visit to the tavern is definitely for other important matters, but it's not so important that you need to hide your whereabouts.

That is, somewhat important, but irrelevant.

Ling Jingxuan was about to enter the house to talk with someone, and before going in, she left Ling Checheng outside the house, and specifically asked: "Don't let anyone come near."

From Ling Jingxuan's attitude, Ling Checheng could read a little warning to himself. Ling Jingxuan was warning Ling Checheng not to be too curious to eavesdrop on their speech when Ling Checheng was guarding outside.

When Ling Checheng received this message, he stepped back obediently: "Yes, father."

It's not that important, Ling Checheng doesn't want to take the risk of making Ling Jingxuan eavesdropping, it's not worth it, it's better to use this to gain a little favor in front of Ling Jingxuan.

There was a little relief in Ling Jingxuan's eyes. This child is very smart, and he can see through a little bit, which makes him feel relieved.

This is the location of the backyard of the tavern. There are many people in the front yard. It is a place where wine is sold. Of course it is lively when welcoming people. This backyard belongs to the private space of the tavern. There are only a handful of people coming and going. Lingche City University can guard it leisurely. Don't be so defensive.

The smell of wine in the air is really craving, just by smelling it, you can tell that the wine sold in this tavern should be good.

Ling Checheng reckoned that Ling Jingxuan would stay for a while, kept paying attention to the movement around the house, moved a little to the front yard, beckoned for a waiter, and gave him some broken silver for him to take a piece for himself. Here comes the altar of good wine.

Not too much, just a small altar, which can satisfy hunger and thirst.

When Xiao Er went to get him wine, Ling Checheng glanced out of the corner of his eye and noticed a person in the lobby who came to buy wine, so he couldn't help but take a second look.

——Yang Dabao.

For some reason, Ling Checheng felt that it was strange for Yang Dabao to appear in this tavern. Could it be that he came to buy

drink?

Ling Checheng had also done his homework on Yang Dabao. He knew that Yang Dabao was a teetotaler on weekdays, so he drank occasionally on certain unavoidable occasions, for example, at his own wedding banquet.

Yang Dabao quickly bought the wine and left. Ling Checheng called the waiter who served Yang Dabao over, and asked what kind of wine Yang Dabao bought and what purpose he said it was for.

Xiao Er casually told Ling Checheng the answer to the first question, but he couldn't answer the latter question because Xiao Er didn't ask much.

Xiao Er told Ling Checheng: "This wine is notoriously fragrant but not strong, so it's not easy to get intoxicated."

The existing information seemed useless, Ling Checheng sent Xiaoer away, raised his head and drank the small jar of wine in his hand, just finished drinking, there was a little movement from the room behind him, it seemed that Ling Jingxuan and the others had finished talking About to come out, Ling Checheng hurriedly threw the empty jar in his hand away, turned around and walked over to wait at the door.

Ling Jingxuan did not leave the tavern through the back door, but left directly from the front lobby. The reason why she used the back door before was because the back door was close, and there was no particular reason.

The father and son of the Ling family walked straight through the lively lobby, and Ling Jingxuan's expression was a little solemn. It should be that the news he just received was not a good one, but it wouldn't be very bad news either.

It was only after Ling Checheng stayed by his side for a long time that he could see this small change. From the perspective of others, Ling Jingxuan's complexion was as usual, and there was no difference between before entering the door and after going out.

Before he was about to step out of the threshold of the tavern, Ling Checheng glanced at the northeast corner of the lobby, and seemed to see nothing unusual, so he quickly looked away and continued to follow Ling Jingxuan closely.

Ling Checheng just glanced at him casually because of his intuition, but it scared a customer in the northeast corner of the tavern, hiding in the crowd and trying to pretend to be calm. Fortunately, when Ling Checheng looked over, someone stood up and blocked his figure, so Ling Checheng didn't notice him. .

Qin Buyi didn't recognize Ling Checheng's face, but Ling Jingxuan's face, even after so many years, he would never admit it wrong.

He didn't know why Ling Jingxuan appeared in Chang'an City this time, so he subconsciously thought that they were probably looking for him, and after taking a few more sips of wine to calm down, Qin Buyi pulled himself out of this panic come out.

So many years have passed, and I have no contact with them for so long, there is no need for Ling Jingxuan to come to me suddenly, I really can't think of a reason, after all, I should not be that important to them.

After figuring it out, Qin Buyi finished the little wine he bought, walked out of the tavern as usual, and walked slowly along the side of the road. When he saw a ten-year-old kid playing by the side of the road, he hurried up to talk to the kid After a few words, the child accepted the money from Qin Buyi, and the first thing he did was to buy a candied haws next to him, and then happily ran to the place Qin Buyi had mentioned while eating.

Lu Zhiyou was drying his clean calligraphy in his courtyard, when there was a knock on the courtyard door, the sound was very small, according to other people's homes, they probably wouldn't notice this movement, but in Lu Zhiyou's house, Lu Zhiyou Zhiyou can hear this sound.

In such a big house, from outsiders, Lu Zhiyou has always lived alone, without even a servant in charge of cleaning the door. A friend once asked Lu Zhiyou out of curiosity, what to do when someone came looking for him, Lu Zhiyou Said: I can hear it.

In order to protect Qin Buyi, Lu Zhiyou didn't want one more person to know that Qin Buyi had been living here for so many years, so he never had a servant or anything to help him guard the house. A small skill is to be able to clearly feel the movement on the other side of the gate.

As long as someone comes, even in the house, Lu Zhiyou can sense it.

Except for two situations, one is when he is serious about painting, and the other is when Qin Yi is in his eyes and in his heart.

The kid who was in charge of delivering the news to Lu Zhiyou was quite responsible. He obediently knocked on the door and waited until Lu Zhiyou opened the door and asked him what was the matter. Lu Zhiyou: "An uncle asked me to bring a message, saying that Brother Ling has come to Chang'an City, and I want you to pay more attention to it."

If Qin Buyi heard this kid call him uncle, he might vomit blood!

Lu Zhiyou listened to the child with a dazed expression, and asked, "What kind of uncle?"

The child turned his head and looked in the direction behind him, but did not find Qin Buyi.

Of course Qin Buyi didn't follow, it was the kid who thought he would follow.

No one was found, the child turned his head back and tried hard to recall Qin Buyi's appearance, but he couldn't give a specific description, he just said: "...uncle who smells like alcohol."

As soon as the child finished speaking, Lu Zhiyou immediately guessed who the uncle the child was talking about, showing a little helpless expression, this guy went to drink again, is the wine so delicious?

The uncle in the child's mouth can already confirm who it is, but who is "Brother Ling"?Lu Zhiyou couldn't figure out what "Brother Ling" he and Qin Buyi knew.

Crouching down, Lu Zhiyou looked at the child at the same level, and asked more information from the child's mouth in a persuasive manner.

The child managed to remember something: "It seems... I also said something about asking the big brother to be careful."

The information he got was fragmented. Luckily, Lu Zhiyou was smart enough to piece together the true meaning Qin Buyi wanted to convey from the messy information. He raised his hand to stroke the child's hair, and looked away, obviously Think about something.

Seeing that he no longer asked any more questions, the child felt that his work had been done, so he ran away quickly.
