Thousands of years

They went out in twos and threes.Zhan Zhao usually doesn't like to go out, so he stayed in the mansion for half a day to help Mr. Gongsun sort out the case files.

At dusk, people who went out came back one after another, and Zhan Zhao heard Xiaojuan's voice outside the door: "Come and taste it, this snack is delicious, it's sold by Miss Lin under the Nazhou Bridge." "Which one is Lin?" Girl?" The person who spoke in a rough voice should be Zhao Hu. "It's Miss Lin who was rescued by Mr. Ri Zhan. She gave this snack to everyone, saying that she thanked her for taking care of her." Zhao Hu just responded vaguely, he really didn't care about Miss Lin. Impressed. "Taste it quickly, it tastes very good." Hearing what Xiaojuan said, she couldn't wait to pick up a piece of snack and was about to put it in her mouth when a figure flashed in front of her eyes, followed by a pain in her wrist. When she looked closely, it turned out to be Zhan Zhao stammered and opened his mouth: "Master Zhan, you, what are you?" Zhan Zhao didn't speak, but grabbed the snack from Zhao Hu's hand, and took the snack from Xiaojuan's hand, Leaped into Mr. Gongsun's house, leaving several people outside looking at each other.

Zhao Hu touched his head: "Master Zhan, is he trying to grab some snacks from us?" Before he finished speaking, Xiaojuan was hit on the head: "What nonsense are you talking about? Is Master Zhan a glutton like you? "

Zhan Zhao entered the house, handed the snack to Gongsun Ce, and said, "Mr. Gongsun, may I trouble you to see if this snack is poisonous?" "Oh?" Gongsun Ce put down the case file in his hand, took the snack, turned around and took the silver After trying the needle, the color of the silver needle did not change. Gongsun Ce said firmly: "It is not poisonous, you can eat it with confidence." After speaking, he took a piece and put it in his mouth. Where did you buy the dim sum?" He didn't get the expected answer, only heard the door slam softly, and Zhan Zhao had long since disappeared.

Zhan Zhao went out of Kaifeng Mansion, he was upset for a moment and didn't know where he was going, so he walked along the way, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had arrived at the state bridge at some point, looking around, There are crowds of people under the bridge, all kinds of performers and snack sellers, people coming and going are very lively, there must be her there, right?Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look for that figure in the crowd. "There are thousands of people under the bridge? Where can I find them?" Thinking of this, Zhan Zhao couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly, "What's wrong with me?"

Zhan Zhao followed the crowd to the state bridge. Everyone in the bustling crowd had joyful expressions on their faces, holding various things in their hands and preparing to go home for the holidays. Occasionally, one or two people recognized Zhan Zhao and gave him a hand from a distance. Greeting, Zhan Zhao responded one by one with a smile.

Not far away, someone shouted: "Come and buy it, the dim sum here is good and cheap, buy half a catty and get half a catty free." Not only shouting, but also dragging passers-by to the dim sum stall next to it from time to time, and took out a piece of dim sum Let people taste.Unsurprisingly, Zhan Zhao, who was dressed in blue casual clothes, was also grabbed by a young man, who took out a piece of dim sum to Zhan Zhao: "Guest officer, try the dim sum here, it's really delicious, and you can buy a catty Give me half a catty."

Zhan Zhao didn't seem to hear what he said, but just quietly looked at the young man not far away, Lin Ruoqing, who was wearing a light green shirt, was busy there, fine beads of sweat oozed out from time to time on her smooth forehead, and the hair on her temples The broken hair stuck to her cheeks, and her bun was a little messy, she didn't care about it at all, she just kept greeting the guests and wrapping snacks for them.The setting sun cast a thin halo on her body, and Zhan Zhao was actually a little dazed looking at it.

As if feeling that someone was looking at her, Lin Ruoqing turned her head, Zhan Zhao suddenly looked away, only to feel a faint heat in the base of her ears.Seeing that it was Zhan Zhao, Lin Ruoqing was very happy, and rushed forward to greet her: "Master Zhan is here too?" Then she said with a playful smile, "Is it because Xiaojuan didn't have the snacks that she brought back, so she wants to try it herself?" When Zhan Zhao answered, Lin Ruoqing instructed the young man holding Zhan Zhao: "Brother Zhuzi, go over there and greet some guests for me." The young man agreed and left.

Seeing him leave, Lin Ruoqing stepped forward to Zhan Zhao and said, "Master Zhan, just tell me what snacks you want, I'll treat you today."

"No need, Master Bao has a family banquet in the mansion at night, and Zhan is going back now." Zhan Zhao turned around and was about to leave after speaking.

Unexpectedly, Lin Ruoqing grabbed his arm and said, "Master Zhan, why did you leave in such a hurry, wait a minute." After speaking, she walked to the booth, picked out a few snacks and wrapped them, and wanted to pass them to Zhan Zhao.At this time, the young man named Zhuzi came over excitedly, his expression was full of excitement: "Miss Ruoqing, someone just said that Master Huiqing, who has traveled all over the world, will come to Tengyun Temple tomorrow. It is said that this master knows astronomy If you know geography, you can ask him about your affairs."

"Really?" Lin Ruoqing's eyes widened instantly as if she had discovered some treasure, "I'll go tomorrow."

"Do you want me to accompany you?" Zhu Zi asked expectantly.

"No need, I can go by myself." Lin Ruoqing shook her head and said.

Afterwards, he handed the dim sum in his hand to Zhan Zhao: "This is my heart, please take Master Zhan back and give Master Bao a taste. If you think it's delicious, you can buy it often." Just as Zhan Zhao wanted to decline, he was told Lin Ruoqing stopped her: "I'll treat you to snacks for free, so don't ask me to pay you back the 20 taels of silver." So they were waiting for him here.Zhan Zhao smiled helplessly: "Since that's the case, then Zhan will be impolite." Lin Ruoqing smiled and said, "That's right." Zhan Zhao turned his eyes away from her, and then said goodbye and left.

Lin Ruoqing shouted from behind: "Lord Zhan, go slowly, come often when you have time." Zhan Zhao turned his head and smiled wryly, but the words that came later made him unable to laugh. "Come and see, everyone. Master Zhan from Kaifeng Mansion has come to order dim sum here, to show how good my dim sum is. If you don't hurry up and buy it, it will be gone." Zhan Zhao looked at the dim sum in his hand, suddenly a little I regret going out.

It's night, the moon is in the sky.The Flower Hall at the back of the Kaifeng Mansion was brightly lit and very lively. Mr. Bao hosted a banquet for the government servants, school lieutenants and unmarried servants. Everyone gathered together like a family, talking and laughing.

Before the banquet started, Zhan Zhao took out the snacks given by Lin Ruoqing and shared them with everyone.Mr. Gongsun on the side wondered: "Guard Zhan still suspected that this snack was poisonous in the afternoon, why did he buy some more at night?"

Zhan Zhao's face flushed, and he replied somewhat uncomfortably, "Zhan Zhao misunderstood her."

Gongsun Ce stroked his beard and asked with a smile, "Oh? What's the story?"

At this time, a deep voice came: "Let me listen to any stories." Everyone hurriedly got up, and Bao Zheng, who was dressed in gray casual clothes, waved his hands with a smile and said: "Sit down quickly, today is a family banquet, everyone don't need to be cautious. "After everyone was seated, Mr. Gongsun smiled and pointed to the snacks on the table and said: "What you said just now has something to do with the snacks on the table. I'm afraid only Zhan Weiwei knows the reason."

Everyone looked at Zhan Zhao with doubts on their faces. Zhan Zhao told the ins and outs of the matter seriously, and everyone was amazed when they learned about Lin Ruoqing's background. "The subordinates originally thought they would never see her again. Unexpectedly, in Zhang Jin's case, their father and daughter went to the court to testify. The subordinates knew that Miss Lin did not return to her hometown but recognized old man Lin as her adoptive father. Selling snacks." Zhan Zhao answered truthfully.

"The government remembers that Miss Lin seemed to say that she had no relatives at home, so she was adopted by Lin Dacheng after she stayed in the capital. The Zhan guards felt that Miss Lin appeared strange, and her words and deeds were inconsistent, so they suspected her just now." Bao Zheng Straighten out the words.

"Yes, Miss Lin's background is really strange, that's why my subordinates thought dim sum was poisonous at first." Zhan Zhao looked a little embarrassed: "Although her words and deeds are somewhat different from ordinary people, according to my subordinates' observation that her words are sincere, she shouldn't be a bad person. "

"What? Guard Zhan went out and walked around, and this view is different." Gongsun Ce looked at Zhan Zhao with deep meaning, and Zhan Zhao's cheeks became hot when he looked at him.

When he was at a loss, the outspoken Zhao Hu said: "It fell from the sky, could it be a fairy, and if she eats this snack, will she live forever?" Everyone was amused by his words, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot .

Bao Zheng was the first to pick up a piece of dim sum and put it in his mouth, nodded in praise and said: "The taste is really good. According to our house's many years of experience, Miss Lin's eyes are clear and she doesn't look like a bad person. Although there is something strange about her appearance, things are still going on in the world." Weird, there are always times when human beings can't explain it. She may have something unspeakable herself, so we don't want to make things difficult for others."

Xiaojuan who was serving the food also interjected, "I don't think Miss Lin looks like a bad person."

"Hehe, the dishes are all ready, hurry up and eat before the dishes get cold." Mr. Gongsun hurriedly changed the subject, and everyone started talking and laughing.

Zhan Zhao didn't say another word, but silently suppressed the faint uneasiness in his heart.

Robbery Case 1, Distress

The moon still hung in the night sky like a silver plate, and the bright white moonlight sprinkled the streets and alleys of Kaifeng Mansion, looking serene and quiet.

A slender shadow turned into the alley, the shadow walked slowly, and seemed to have deep thoughts, it turned out that this was Lin Ruoqing who had returned from Tengyun Temple, she was in a trance, her face was pale, Her bright eyes also became dull at the moment, and her mind was revolving around the words of Master Huiqing in Tengyun Temple today: "The appearance of the girl is caused by manpower, and the poor monk can't do anything. If the girl wants to go back Unless you find the man who brought you here."

The one who brought me here?There was a wry smile on Lin Ruoqing's lips, who the hell knows who that person is?In which corner are you hiding?The vast sea of ​​people, where can I find it?Lin Ruoqing walked forward in a daze, did she just die here and never go back?great loneliness
