The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng: The Safflower Mystery Case

: "Brother Lu talked about Qin Feng today, and I remembered that he seemed to have a strange smell of various medicines mixed together. I also smelled this strange smell on Tang Tianyi that day. The Tangmen dealt with various medicinal herbs all day long. , it's not surprising to have such a smell. But the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion should never have such a smell."

Lu Xiaofeng: "From this point of view, it is inevitable to visit the Liu Mansion three times. Brother Hua, do you want to go together?"

Hua Manlou shook his head and said, "Brother Lu can handle this matter, I'm going to Luomei Garden to return the piano."

The appearance of the princess made many things complicated. Lu Xiaofeng knew that Huamanlou and Miaogu must have a lot to say, so he nodded and said, "That's fine."

Luomeiyuan.

Miao Gu stared blankly at Hua Manlou who came with the piano, then took the piano and put it on the table, motioned Yun Lan to go down, then made a cup of tea and handed it over, and asked with a smile: "What do you think of this piano, my lord?" ?”

Hua Manlou: "It's really a good piano. Not only can it be pleasant, but it also hides many stories."

Miao Gu: "Oh? Did you ever understand those stories?"

Hua Manlou: "Although Hua Qi is dull, she is also a person who loves Qin. Naturally, it is easier for me to understand Qin's story."

Miao Gu: "I don't care about the pain of the singer, but it hurts the friends. It must be very happy to meet someone like you who understands it."

Hua Manlou: "I heard that the girl encountered many dangers yesterday. I wonder if she was injured?"

Miao Gu: "I'm fine, you, don't worry."

Hua Manlou: "It's all because of this marriage, what do you think of this marriage?"

Miaogu thought for a long time, knowing that Huamanlou couldn't see anything, she still stared into his eyes and said: "Although this kind of thing is about two people, most of the time it concerns two families. It is enough to say that the two are happy. For the two families, there are often many things to consider."

Huamanlou could feel her solemnity and respect for him from Miaogu's gaze, the atmosphere became more dignified, he couldn't help stretching out a hand, trying to grab something, but only met the cold strings.Before he could retract his hand, one hand covered it, and then the two hands were firmly held together.

Miao Gu continued: "Actually, to put it bluntly, it's nothing more than four things: appearance, talent, character, and family background. As long as none of them is too bad, you can still succeed. Do you understand what I mean?"

Hua Manlou withdrew his hand, and took out a withered flower from his sleeve.Although it has dried up, it still maintains a perfect shape because it has been smoothed and pressed with heavy objects.

Seeing this flower, Miaogu recovered from the disappointment when Huamanlou withdrew her hand just now. This is the epiphyllum she pinned on Huamanlou's skirt when they met for the first time.Miao Gu murmured, "You still keep it."

Hua Manlou: "Since shepherds return to catkins, they are beautiful and different. The beauty of a bandit girl is the beauty of a beauty. Do you understand what I mean?"

Lu Xiaofeng didn't expect that he was still one step late.

The fire, the fire that filled the sky, even the sky seemed to be burned.The Liu family, the once prominent ship tycoon, turned into dust quickly by this method, and will soon be submerged in the depths of history.The wind is always blown away by the rain and the wind, and everything cannot escape this result.

Lu Xiaofeng understood that it might be difficult to find the person behind the scenes.Even an inconspicuous figure like Qin Feng may not be found anymore.So, is this a success or a failure?

At the same time, Luomeiyuan is full of singing and dancing.

Miao Gu is playing "Wang Ji" with her excellent piano, and the princess is singing and dancing beside her.The song is "Sitting Alone in a Flower Temple" by Sima Guang. The poem says:

under the forest bird

far away

To ask market guests

red dust deep geometry

The princess suddenly felt that someone grabbed her by the sleeve, and before she had time to react, she was pulled by her sleeve and pulled into her arms.The man raised her chin with his hand and said: "Husband, He Guiyi's graceful posture is unique in the world."

The princess quickly broke free from his embrace and hid behind Miaogu.But that person also followed, still teasing and saying: "The beauty is absolutely like Dong Yaoluo, she lives at the first bridge in Nanshan. She refuses to go across the lake with others, and the moon is bright and she is boasting every night."

Miao Gu stood up, turned around and said to the princess in a low voice: "Don't lose the royal style." Then she went up to the emperor and said, "Does the emperor feel cold?"

The emperor stopped in his tracks, looked at her suspiciously and said, "How can it be cold around Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Miao Gu: "Does the Emperor feel hungry?"

The emperor: "I'm not a fairy, I always have a good breakfast."

Miao Gu suddenly said seriously: "Sure enough, the ancients were sincere and never deceived."

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and suddenly found that the princess was covering her lips with her hand, and her trembling body still betrayed the fact that the master was snickering.The emperor quickly understood that Miaogu was alluding to him as "full and warm thinking□□□□", and couldn't help but also laughed.

Miao Gu turned around to signal the princess to leave, and then said: "I advise you not to think of her."

The emperor: "Why?"

Miao Gu: "If you don't want to cause trouble, you'd better not."

The emperor: "The more beautiful a woman is, the more trouble she will have. But finding a woman and making friends are very different."

Miao Gu: "What's the difference?"

The emperor: "If it's my wife, it's okay to be a little troublesome. If it's a friend, it's better to change it as soon as possible if there's too much trouble."

Miao Gu suddenly sighed and said, "Time is running out."

The emperor's expression also dimmed a lot, and he continued: "That's right. Everything is far from what I imagined that day. I always feel that I have made people a pawn for no reason."

Miao Gu: "If the world is a game of chess, and no one is in the game, why should the emperor care too much?"

The emperor: "This princess doesn't come sooner or later. She has to wait for me to find a substitute before breaking in. I heard that the fairy was in danger many times yesterday. Don't you have any idea?"

Miao Gu: "Respond to all changes with the same, and keep the same with all changes. That's all."

The emperor: "There is also that Lu Xiaofeng, I am afraid that if he continues to investigate, the emperor uncle will take my skin off."

Miao Gu: "I'll mention him tomorrow. I don't think such a person will be stupid."

Emperor: "I hope so."

☆、Chapter 21 Chanjuan Sword

"The Liu Mansion is on fire?" After listening to Lu Xiaofeng's narration, Hua Manlou asked with a frown.

Lu Xiaofeng: "Not only is Liu Mansion on fire, but Qin Feng is also gone."

Hua Manlou: "From this point of view, Brother Lu's thinking is correct. Someone must be afraid of what Qin Feng would say, so he took him away. There may also be something related to the people behind the scenes hidden in the Liu Mansion. After the fire was over, there was no trace of it anymore."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Now I'm only worried about Qin Feng being silenced, how can I explain to Mr. Tang Er."

So where did Qin Feng go?If Lu Xiaofeng is willing to wait a while, and then walk around in the Cuicui Villa, maybe he can meet Qin Feng.

At night, Jin Jiuling carried a large cocoon into Luomei Garden.Walking in front of Miaogu, she put down the silkworm cocoon. It turned out that this large silkworm cocoon was a person wrapped in a white cloth.Jin Jiuling pulled the white cloth and shook it, and the white cloth was put back in his hand, and that man showed his true face just now.It was Qin Feng, or it should be said Tang Tianyi.

The eldest son of the Tang Sect seemed to be in a daze, and he was a little unsteady in his standing, but he had a half-smile expression on his face.

Miaogu: "Yunlan, hurry up and help Mr. Tang to sit down." Then she picked up a wooden box from the table and handed it to Jin Jiuling, saying: "Congratulations, Jin Butou is one step closer to the position of Chief Catcher of the Six Gates. Listen It is said that Miss Luyi of Cuiyun Tower likes pearls the most, and these one hundred and eight South Pearls express my heart."

Jin Jiuling took the box and opened it to see that the one hundred and eight pearls were uniform in size, round and lustrous, and they were indeed rare top-grade pearls, sure to win the hearts of beauties.After taking a look, he quickly closed his mouth and said, "Thanks to Miao Gu's fascination, I was able to take him down. Now both money and goods are paid, so I leave."

Yun Lan took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, unplugged it and put it under Tang Tianyi's nose, a wisp of light smoke instantly floated into Tang Tianyi's nose.Then Yun Lan put away the bottle and retreated behind Miao Gu.Tang Tianyi tried to move her hands and feet, and her limbs could move, but she still couldn't use her internal force.Tang Tianyi suddenly showed a strange smile, and then pressed a dagger against Miao Gu's back.

Miao Gu: "Why?"

Yun Lan: "Girl, do you still remember the story I told, he is the one I have been waiting for."

Miao Gu: "What do you want?"

Yun Lan: "I hope the girl will let him go. I'll leave it to the girl to dispose of."

Miao Gu looked up at Tang Tianyi and said, "What do Mr. Tang think of this proposal?"

Tang Tianyi: "Xiaoyue, this is my business. This woman is not simple, she must have someone behind her, you'd better go alone."

Yun Lan shook her head and said, "No, I can't watch you die, I won't leave."

"It's a good thing that a man has a love affair with a concubine, but unfortunately, none of you can leave." Tang Tianyi only felt a red shadow flash in front of his eyes, and the sword reached his neck. No one can describe the speed of this sword.

Yun Lan looked at the princess in disbelief, and then roared: "Let him go, or I will..."

Princess: "That's it? Just kill my savior. How can there be so many wolf-hearted things in this world, killing people so hard that their hands are numb."

Yun Lan said anxiously: "No, the girl must know, I don't want to hurt her, I just want to save people."

Tang Tianyi: "Xiaoyue..." Before he finished speaking, he felt that the sword edge was getting closer to his neck, and even felt a little pain.Looking at the faint blood oozing from his neck, Yun Lan tried to threaten the princess, but the hand holding the dagger shook again and again, after all, she couldn't stab it, and she was about to cry.

Princess: "Little sister, your man has rough skin and thick flesh, and he can't die with such a little blood. Besides, how can he be a man without bleeding? My fairy was raised and raised, and she was made of water." Skin, the sword is ruthless, if you accidentally scratch it, you might die. But don't worry, I have always liked beautiful people, so I won't do anything to you. It has to be counted on your man, and he must be hacked into pieces, and his bones will be ashes."

Every time she said something, Yun Lan's face turned pale.When she finished speaking, Yun Lan was already terrified, and begged Miao Gu: "Girl, let him go."

But Miaogu didn't realize it, and suddenly read a poem.Poetry goes:

Zhao Keman and Hu Ying, Wu Goushuang Xueming.

The silver saddle illuminates the white horse, rustling like a meteor.

Kill ten people in ten steps, and stay in a thousand miles.

Hello.

When Miaogu read a sentence, the Princess' expression became strange.Finally, the princess said coquettishly, "You are a person who is both liked and hated. Forget it, let's admit that you are the safflower killer."

Miao Gu stopped reading, just looked at her and said: "Killing is just a means to solve the problem, not the real way to solve the problem. Everyone might as well sit down and have a good chat."

Tang Tianyi said sarcastically: "The revenge of killing one's father is irreconcilable. Let's talk, let's talk, I'd like to see how Miaogu will solve this matter."

Seeing that Tang Tianyi was willing to resolve the matter peacefully, the Princess put away her sword and sat down.Yun Lan also withdrew her dagger, and bowed her head in silence.

Miao Gu: "Then how does Mr. Tang want to solve this matter?"

Tang Tianyi: "Of course blood for blood."

Miao Gu: "If my son insists on blood for blood, I have no objection, but Tang Xuefu and Tang Jingfeng killed each other back then. Isn't this blood for blood? The dead are dead, and the living are innocent."

Tang Tianyi snorted coldly and said, "Even if you don't mention it, what about Qiluo?"

Miao Gu: "But Su Qiluo, the daughter of the Su family with Soul-Breaking Knife?"

Tang Tianyi: "That's right. I went to Miaojiang after a narrow escape, and finally got that thing. Ye Xingshi has also promised to help me heal Qiluo. If you hadn't asked him to leave, Qiluo wouldn't have died."

Princess: "Since you are the eldest son of the Tang Sect, why don't you ask the experts of the Tang Sect to save her?"

Miao Gu: "But what happened in mid-July five years ago?"

Tang Tianyi: "The Tang Sect is good at poisoning, not saving people. At the end of July, Qi Luo went."

Miao Gu: "Then do you know why I invited Ye Xingshi?"

Tang Tianyi said coldly: "What does it have to do with me?"

Miao Gu: "Naturally it is related. There is a cause and an effect."

Tang Tianyi wondered: "What cause and effect?"

Yun Lan suddenly raised her head and looked at him strangely, and said, "She killed herself. As expected, the law of heaven is clear, and the retribution is not good, haha..."

When Dao Yunlan finally stopped laughing, Tang Tianyi couldn't help asking, "What do you mean by that?"

Yun Lan: "If she hadn't sent someone to kill me, I wouldn't have asked the girl to save me. If I hadn't asked the girl to save me, the girl wouldn't have asked for Doctor Ye. If the girl hadn't asked for Doctor Ye, then your Qi Luo won't die either. Tell me, did she kill herself?"

Looking at the dazed Tang Tianyi, Miaogu suddenly stretched out her hand in front of him, and said quietly, "I wonder if this result will satisfy the young master?"

Tang Tianyi glanced at her suspiciously, and stretched out his hand to feel her pulse.After a while, it suddenly became silent.

Miao Gu withdrew her hand and said, "Young Master, why do you want to do things for others?"

Tang Tianyi: "Because they promised to do one thing for me."

Miao Gu: "They?"

Tang Tianyi: "They realized that Liu Rulong wanted to quit, so they asked me to help them watch Liu Rulong, and when it was a last resort, destroy all traces at any cost. I haven't met their leader, so you don't have to bother to ask me. "

Miao Gu: "What benefits did they promise you?"

Tang Tianyi: "Help me kill Wenyue."

Miao Gu: "Wen Yue has already lost the news, maybe your goal has been achieved. However, they are not for you, but for their own plan."

Tang Tianyi: "Now I don't care about asking if Yue is alive, I just want to find out the real cause of my father's death."

Miao Gu: "Have you ever thought that the people of the Tang Sect have kept silent on this matter, so there must be a reason for doing so. You will definitely make many people sad, and you will definitely encounter great resistance. "

Tang Tianyi: "No matter how difficult it is to find out the truth, I will definitely stick to it."

Miao Gu: "I admire Mr. Tang's courage very much. It's getting late, Mr. Please take care of yourself, but don't forget to leave the antidote."

Tang Tianyi: "You just let me go?"

Miao Gu: "Wen Yue just wants me to help him maintain a temporary peace, so why should I be troublesome. Just don't forget to leave the antidote when the young master leaves."

Tang Tianyi: "There is no cure for lovesickness."

Miao Gu: "It seems that Huamanlou's poison was indeed poisoned by you. However, what I want is the princess's antidote."

Princess: "It turns out that the fairy is also thinking about me."

Tang Tianyi suddenly smiled strangely and said, "I did poison Huamanlou, but it was chosen by the princess. How did you know that the princess was poisoned?"

☆、Chapter 22

Miao Gu: "I thought about it for a long time yesterday, but I really couldn't think of a time when I would offend the Princess. Later, I remembered that the Tang Sect seems to have a secret medicine called Losing Soul Yin, which can control people's hearts."

Tang Tianyi: "Lost soul guide combined with soul-absorbing technique can modify people's memory and achieve the purpose of manipulating people's hearts."

Princess: "It turns out that you modified my memory. No wonder Hua Manlou asked me about my past that day. I couldn't remember anything except the memory of Biyun Temple."

Tang Tianyi: "You only met Miaogu during the period at Biyun Temple. In order to prevent accidents, I erased your other memories, and then used the soul-stirring technique to plant hatred for her in your heart. As long as When you encounter something related to her, you will fall into paranoia until you die."

Miao Gu: "Does Mr. Tang have an antidote?"

Tang Tianyi: "There is no antidote, but I know the solution. However, Tang Sect's secret arts are not allowed to be leaked."

Miao Gu: "Okay, you two stay here. I will tell others not to disturb you." After speaking, she took Yun Lan and left.

When they walked away, Yun Lan asked, "What do you think of my performance tonight?"

Miao Gu: "It's okay."

Yun Lan: "Why does the girl want me to act with him?"

Miao Gu: "I originally wanted you to leave with him to ensure his safety. Now it seems that he doesn't know much, so he shouldn't be in too much danger."

Yun Lan: "I don't want to be with him anymore, everything is in the past."

Miao Gu: "Then why did you tell him how to escape the mechanism of the villa?"

Yun Lan: "He said that he wanted to come here to find some clues about the cause of his father's death, and it would never be harmful to the girl. I couldn't help but agree to him, but unexpectedly, the girl and the playboy were trapped for a day and a night. The girl You said you didn't want to test people's hearts one night, did you already know it?"

Miao Gu: "Just because I don't ask, doesn't mean I don't know. There is no room for sand in my eyes."

Yun Lan: "I can swear to the girl with my life that as long as I live, I will never let anyone hurt the girl. I didn't know he would lie to me."

Miao Gu: "If he and I have to die, what will you do?"

Yun Lan: "I can repay the girl for saving her life first, and then repay his life."

Miao Gu: "Forget it, it's not a big deal, just let it go. He didn't lie to you. When he said he wouldn't hurt me, he meant that he wouldn't kill me with his own hands. This is the agreement between Wenyue and Tangmen. Unexpectedly, he To actually abide by this agreement, I underestimated him."

Yun Lan: "Is there really a problem with the cause of his father's death?"

Miao Gu: "That's not true. The fact that Tang Jingfeng and Tang Xuefu killed each other should have been witnessed by many people, and it cannot be faked. What he is looking for is the reason why these two people have turned against each other, hidden in the The truth behind it. If there is nothing interesting, the Tang Sect will not enter into an alliance with Wenyue."

Yun Lan: "Does the girl know about this?"

Miao Gu: "It's just a little guesswork."

Yun Lan: "How sure is the girl about her guess?"

Miao Gu: "Although I didn't win, it's not far away. But this is destined to be not a pleasant thing, and I have no interest in proving it. Sometimes the truth does not bring justice, but death. So, I still have some admiration his."

Yun Lan: "The girl is so tolerant of the princess, is it because she is the Alan you mentioned?"

Miao Gu: "You are also a smart person, why can't you see it? Children will always be children in the eyes of their parents. No matter how big a mistake they make, they can be forgiven. After so many years, they must be waiting You, go back and have a look. Once you make a decision, you can’t regret it, otherwise you will be the only one who suffers. Don’t make a decision that you regret.”

Yun Lan: "Has that girl ever done something that I regret?"

Aunt Miao: "A person will inevitably do one or two stupid things in his life, otherwise he will grow up. It's just that sometimes it's hard to mend a golden mirror when you sharpen a jade ax slowly. Fortunately, I still have some time to do something else. "As she spoke, Miao Gu's voice gradually became low, almost inaudible.Yun Lan was also immersed in the memories of the past, and she didn't know if she heard it. Perhaps her heart had already flown back to the home that raised her.

Princess: "That little girl has already gone away. If you like it, why didn't you let her stay?"

Tang Tianyi: "In my eyes, she will always be that sweet Xiaoyue who calls me Big Brother. I just hope she lives well." After speaking, Tang Tianyi took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to the princess. : "Qi Luo is gone, and this thing is useless. You help me give this to her, and let her go home."

The princess took it over and weighed it, but it wasn't very heavy. She put it in her sleeve and said, "If you are willing to tell me one thing, I will help you."

Tang Tianyi: "What's the matter?"

Princess: "You took her pulse just now, what did you see?"

Tang Tianyi: "I can see that there is a big secret in the Tang Sect, I can see that my father's death is not simple, I can see that she is also a victim of this incident. In short, this is all about the Tang Sect and has nothing to do with the princess. No comment."

Princess: "What does she have to do with your Tang Sect?"

Tang Tianyi: "Didn't the princess think about why she was able to avoid your poison, and why I didn't poison you just now?"

Princess: "Has she ever studied poison?"

Tang Tianyi: "She may not be as knowledgeable about poison as the disciples of the Tang Sect, but she will never lose to Ye Xingshi."

Princess: "Then why did you attack her with boundless silk rain?"

Tang Tianyi: "It's just a momentary itch, let's test her poison technique by the way, to verify a conjecture."

Princess: "What guess?"

Tang Tianyi: "Her relationship with the Tang Sect, and why those old poisons taught her poison techniques. The princess doesn't seem to care much about the poison she got, so I will leave now."

Princess: "How can I detoxify?"

Tang Tianyi: "There is no cure. However, as long as the caster makes you do something strongly against your will, you may fall into madness after being stimulated, and your memory may be restored. Doesn't the princess feel it?"

Princess: "I seem to remember something, but it's too scattered to piece together a complete memory."

Tang Tianyi looked at her with deep meaning and said, "I underestimated your feelings for her. However, sometimes it's a good thing to forget."

Princess: "If you want to kill her with my hands, wouldn't it be more reliable to do it yourself?"

Tang Tianyi: "The Tang Sect and Wenyue have an appointment first, so we can't seek revenge from each other. I don't need to lose my face, but Tang Sect's face can't."

Princess: "Unexpectedly, you are also a person who wants face."

Tang Tianyi: "Princess don't forget, you and I are just using each other."

Princess: "What am I using you for?"

Tang Tianyi: "It seems that the princess has forgotten. I can remind you, the building is full of flowers, and love is deep in the bone."

Princess: "Why should I kill Huamanlou?"

Tang Tianyi took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to the Princess, saying, "Fortunately, the Princess left a letter for herself before taking the Lost Soul Yin, otherwise I would really have a hard time saying it."

The princess took it over, but didn't know whether to look at it or not, and stood there for a while.Fear comes from the unknown, maybe there will be some secrets hidden in that letter that I can't accept at all.Taking advantage of the princess in a daze, Tang Tianyi quickly left Luomei Garden.

The princess didn't know how long she had been posting it, but finally put the letter away.She has many questions she wants to ask Miao Gu, and only she can answer them.Miaogu sat under a plum tree and waited for her. There were many wine jars beside her, some of which were already empty.The princess walked over and sat down on the ground side by side with her.The princess put away her usual charming look, picked up a jug of wine, took a big sip, and said softly, "Ah Zhen, am I stupid?"

Miao Gu was stunned, maybe she had been a little dull from drinking too much wine, and it took a while before she remembered that this was her name, a name that hadn't been called for a long time.She smiled and said, "Why, you have always been more likable than me."

Princess: "But I didn't understand your hint of killing people with a knife."

Miao Gu: "I also didn't see through your intention to steal the ten-foot bead curtain."

Princess: "I wanted to discuss it with you, but you were not here. I had no choice but to steal the flowers according to Tang Tianyi's wishes, but I left the fan behind. You should understand that it is mine, why didn't you come to me?"

Miao Gu: "It should have been like this, but Uncle He didn't give me the fan. Before I knew it, Lu Xiaofeng had already found it, and it was too late. However, Liu Rulong was already dead, so it didn't matter anymore .It's just that Liu Chuanyu's existence will definitely make waves again."

Princess: "Liu Chuanyu will never appear again. But there is still a problem."

Miao Gu: "What's the trouble?"

Princess: "There is no cure for the poison in that dude, how about I take the blame tomorrow?"

Miao Gu: "How do you plan to solve it?"

Princess: "It's better to pay him your life."

Miao Gu chuckled and said, "Why don't you pay me your life, how about I solve it for you?"

Princess: "You just take my life if you want, and you don't have to do anything."

Miao Gu: "What do I want to do with your life, I just want you to do something for me."

Princess: "Yesterday you also said that you want me to do one thing. You should know that I will promise you no matter what."

Miaogu: "Promise me to be my father's good daughter." After speaking, she pulled out the white sandalwood hairpin from her head, inserted it on the head of the princess at will, and said with a smile: "This is also for you, and you are not allowed to renege on your debt."

Without the entanglement of the hairpin, a black hair hangs down.The princess brushed the hair that covered her face with her hand, and said softly: "I only want it because I am deluded. I am innocent, but I am guilty of pregnant. Now I don't want this hot potato at all."

Miao Gu: "Father is gone, only you are the most suitable. Make good use of this power and do what father wants to do. You know, I have always been in poor health. After tomorrow, I will retreat and recuperate gone."

Princess: "Ah Zhen, let's leave this alone and leave here, okay? I remember you said, read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, watch the moon in Yulou, and enjoy the typhoon in Chu..."

Miao Gu picked up the wine jar and drank a big gulp of wine, her face was stained with water, she couldn't tell whether it was wine or tears, she smiled lightly and said, "It's too late, I've already forgotten."

Princess: "I don't believe you will forget."

Miao Gu: "So what if I don't forget, with my body, I can't even get out of Biyun Temple. Do you still remember the scene we sneaked out to watch?"

Princess: "Remember, you still said that those two lines were destined for us."

Miao Gu: "Yes, isn't it a very good prophecy? You are the beauty of the city and the country, and I am this sad and sick." The princess read it with her, and her face became moist.

Miao Gu: "Okay, let's talk about something happy. Do you remember why I learned divination?"

The princess: "It's because Gu Maiyi gave us an order. At that time, you said you wanted to change your order, so you pestered him to learn from him. I remember what he wrote to you was 'Xiangdao pecked at the remaining parrot grains, old Biwuxi' Phoenix branch'."

Miao Gu: "What he wrote to you is 'The hibiscus on the south bank of the small pond, red after the rain and before the frost'."

Princess: "So I like to wear red clothes?"

Miao Gu: "Maybe. You kept crying when you left. I promise you that as long as you come back, I will obey you in everything."

Princess: "At that time, as long as I made a scene, you would find a way to trick the guards and take me to the street."

Miao Gu: "You don't always think that it's luck that the two of us come back safely every time."

Princess: "It's my father. He must have done a lot in secret. Are you still angry with him now?"

Miao Gu: "It's just trapping smoke in willows and deceiving flowers in coldness. There's still something I can't figure out now. For example, do you remember the wine in our hands now?"

Princess: "But Hundred Flowers Green Plum Wine?"

Miao Gu: "That's right, you said that we would wait for you to come back and have a drink together. Thirteen years seem like a sea of ​​vicissitudes, and it seems like a moment. However, I still waited for you."

Princess: "I remember when I heard people talk about this wine, I thought it was fun, and asked you to go pick flowers with me. At that time, I didn't know that wine making needed a lot of things."

Miaogu: "After you left, my father found a brewer and finally brewed Baihuaqingmei wine. I have been hiding it in this plum grove, thinking that I might never open it for the rest of my life. If I go So I buried them here and waited with them. Luckily, I didn’t have to wait too long.”

Princess: "Actually, you are just like your father. You always do everything silently and refuse to say anything."

Miaogu shook her head, she seemed a little drunk, she read the opera to herself: "Go back to Xianyang and cross the palace wall".The princess continued: "Cross the palace wall and go around the corridor."The two of them said a sentence, while drinking while reading, they were very harmonious.

Around the corridor, near the pepper room;

Near the pepper room, the moon is dim and yellow;

The moon is dim and the night is cool;

The night is cold, the weeping cold stings;

Weeping cold sting, green screen window;

Green screen window, don't think about it! 【1】

After reading this section of "Plum Blossom Wine", the princess found that Miao Gu had lost her voice, and tentatively called, "Ah Zhen".There was no answer for a while, and she turned to look at her. Miaogu probably drank too much wine, her fair face was flushed, her eyes were blurred, and her soft lips became moist from the stain of wine.The moon suddenly hid in the clouds, and a face gently covered it.

[1] Note: From "Plum Blossom Wine" in the third fold of "Han Palace Autumn".

☆、Chapter 23

August fifteen.

Jiao fetal skin old tribulus thorns, grebe quenched white pheasant tail.No silk clusters of gold hang down, and the divine light wants to cut off the blue field jade.Lu Xiaofeng had to admit that it was a very good sword, but he didn't want to look at it no matter how good it was.Since he came here in the morning, Shizi has been wiping the sword in front of him with a pure white silk handkerchief. Until now, Lu Xiaofeng has eaten up five plates of snacks, drank three pots of water, and even ran to the toilet for two trip.Lu Xiaofeng finally couldn't help it and said: "No matter how well the sword is polished, if it is not used, it will inevitably rust."

Shizi finally stopped what he was doing, nodded and said, "That's right. But if it's polished better, it will definitely kill people faster, and the pain will be less."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Could it be that your son wants to kill me?"

The prince shook his head and said with a smile: "Daxia Lu helped me find my sister. I haven't thanked you yet, so how could I do such an ungrateful thing. Uncle always taught us that we should be proud and worthy of being a human being. I will never forget it for a moment."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Speaking of the princess, I have some questions and would like to ask the prince."

Prince: "I don't dare to ask for advice. I will know everything and say everything."

Lu Xiaofeng: "At the time when the princess disappeared, we suspected that the incident was caused by the safflower killer based on the safflower provided by the prince."

Prince: "That's right, the Red Flower Killer will leave a red flower on the scene after killing someone."

Lu Xiaofeng: "For the safflower killer, the safflower is his (her) symbol. A person who dares to leave his or her mark on the scene is usually for showing off and provoking. But the most important thing is to have something to do with others. so that people can understand what he (she) did. The red flower symbol represents the safflower killer, and the safflower on the scene also shows that he (she) is responsible for the matter. The prince is a safflower killer, can he easily change his logo?"

Shizi: "No. Once the logo is formed, it must not be changed easily."

Lu Xiaofeng: "The Red Flower Killer used to just kill people. The two incidents of robbing the princess and the ship king's daughter are very strange. Of course, it may also be that they suddenly believed in Buddhism and were unwilling to kill, so I just had a little suspicion. Until Yesterday, I suddenly remembered something, and only then did I realize that the kidnapping of the Princess by the Red Flower Killer was very suspicious."

Shizi: "What's the matter?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "I followed the clues of red flowers to find Liu's mansion. I didn't expect that the ship king Liu's family, such a prominent and big family, didn't even have a single flower in such a huge mansion. When I arrived at Liu’s Mansion, I couldn’t bear it, and I even expressed my feelings towards Brother Hua. But the housekeeper Qin Feng told me that because Liu Rulong doted on his daughter Liu Chuanyu, the whole mansion only planted Liu Chuanyu. Now it’s not Liu Chuanyu. Chuanyu is in the flowering period, so the whole mansion lacks the feeling of verdant flowers and trees. I also went to see Qin Feng yesterday, and I remembered this matter."

The prince was a little puzzled and said, "What's the problem?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Your Majesty, haven't you understood?"

Prince: "I really don't quite understand, please explain to Daxia Lu."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Flowering period."

Prince: "Flowering period?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Every flower in this world has its flowering period. Few flowers can bloom 360 days a year without interruption. Of course, some gardeners are very good, and can even change the flowering period, such as He Bo from Xiecui Villa. Yesterday Thinking of that incident, I went to ask He Bo for advice. Changing the flowering period is a very troublesome thing. It requires strict control of light, water and other things, and usually it cannot be too different from the original flowering period. Usually only Some chrysanthemum banquets, peony banquets and so on will be used, but it is only to let these flowers of the same type bloom at about the same time, and there will be a difference of two or three days. There will never be too many people like He Bo, and It will also cost a huge price, and I don’t think anyone will do this unless there is a real urgent need for this kind of flower. If the prince is a safflower killer, would he use such a troublesome mark?”

Prince: "No. Since growing flowers is more troublesome than killing people,
