[Comprehensive] leaning on flowers and bamboo

Yangcheng is not a prosperous town, but it is also lively.

As soon as the carriage entered the city gate, the noise from outside came in. Hua Manlou and Gongsun Ce listened attentively to the noise outside, and said, "Find an inn to stay."

"Yes, son."

The coachman agreed, and drove the carriage to look around, looking for an inn where he could live comfortably.

Gongsun Ce thought that Bai Yutang said he was going to Yangcheng, so he came to look for the other four rats? "Golden Mouse, are you here to find the other four mice?"

"Gongsun Ce, why don't you take me in? I won't look for them anymore. I will follow you and meet Zhan Zhao, right?"

Gongsun Ce knew about Xiangguo Temple, but the agreement between Zhan Zhao and Chinchilla was just a joke, and they didn't care. Could it be that Chinchilla and Zhan Zhao really took it seriously?

"Are you going to compete with Zhan Zhao?"

"Of course, I will definitely make him admit defeat." Gongsun Ce couldn't help laughing because of the boy's stubborn character.

"It's too early for you to win Zhan Zhao, but Hua Manlou and I are going to the south of the Yangtze River. If you want to find Zhan Zhao directly, you can go to the capital. He should still be in the capital." When Gongsun Ce mentioned the capital , the tone was a little different, but it disappeared quickly, "I'm going to Jiangnan, and it may take a while before I go back."

Now he still doesn't know how to face Bao Zheng and Zhan Zhao, let's wait for a while.

Hearing this, Bai Yutang said, "Then I will follow you to Jiangnan."

Gongsun Ce was surprised, why is Chinchilla so determined to follow him?

Hua Manlou understood a little bit, this Bai Yutang was probably in Yiye Town from the beginning, and knew that Gongsun Ce was there long ago, but he was just looking for an opportunity to follow Gongsun Ce.

"It's okay to take him with you."

"what?"

"Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao are very similar, aren't they? With an extra child on the road, you won't feel bored anymore." Hua Manlou knew that Gongsun Ce wasn't dull in nature, and he didn't mean dull, it was just him. This is such a temperament, Gongsun Ce will inevitably find it boring when he is with him.

Bai Yutang curled his lips and jumped out of the carriage, "I don't look like that Zhan Zhao at all. I just think it's not bad to follow you. It's not bad to have food, shelter and company."

Gongsun Ce didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he groped to get out of the carriage, holding a bamboo stick, "Since you are willing to follow us, then follow us, but if you want to leave, we won't stop you, just don't cause trouble for us, I am so grateful.”

Bai Yutang stopped at the entrance of the inn and waited for Gongsun Ce and Hua Manlou to come over, "Don't worry, I won't cause trouble."

"But trouble will come to you automatically?" Gongsun Ce answered, "It's really...you can't wear our clothes. After a while, we will arrange a place for you to go to the cloth shop and buy a suit yourself."

"How do you know I have no clothes to wear?"

"When your hand was holding something just now, it was very cold." Gongsun Ce is a meticulous person.

Looking at Gongsun Ce curiously, and then at Huamanlou standing beside him, Bai Yutang shook his head: "You two blind people go out, how can Bao Heizi trust you to go out? But the newcomer next to you is good at martial arts."

Being praised by a young man, Hua Manlou was a little surprised, but fortunately, his face was still calm, "Thank you for the compliment from the young hero, I just know a little bit."

"Yes, yes or no, people like you are the ones I hate the most."

After Bai Yutang finished speaking, he turned around and entered the inn, he patted the counter and said, "Shopkeeper, I need three upper rooms."

"Where did you come from beggar, walk around, don't delay my business."

Gongsun Ce shook his head and sighed, it was really a trouble.

After stepping over the threshold, he smiled embarrassedly at the shopkeeper, "Sorry, I need three rooms."

"Young master looks gentle and gentle. How can there be such a younger brother? The two young masters should be guarded and disciplined strictly." The shopkeeper looked regretful, and ordered the staff to take the house cards and lead them up.

Hearing this, Bai Yutang glared at the shopkeeper, saw that Hua Manlou and Gongsun Ce had already walked up, snorted and chased after him, showing the youthful arrogance and disbelief.

Gongsun Ce pushed open the door, and Hua Manlou walked in, "Is he an orphan?"

"It is."

"You two share a room?"

"Well, you live next door." After finishing speaking, Gongsun Ce entered the door, turned around after thinking for a while, and handed the silver to Bai Yutang, "Go to buy clothes, and buy whatever you want. If you have a conscience, give it to us by the way." If you don't have a conscience, just leave it alone."

After yawning, Bai Yutang lazily agreed, "I know, I know."

Gongsun Ce sat on the stool with a headache, annoyed why he agreed to let Bai Yutang stay.

Hua Manlou next to him chuckled, "It's just a child's temper, it's fine."

"Of course you don't think it's in the way, he won't provoke you, he will only pick soft persimmons to pinch, of course he is here to provoke me." Gongsun Ce curled his lips and lay down on the table, "Really, why did he agree in a moment of confusion, but ..."

The Chin Maoshu, who was separated from the four mice, is now wandering outside alone, which reminds him of Zhan Zhao.If Zhan Zhao didn't follow them, Chin Maoshu must be about the same, that's not right, Zhan Zhao can go back to Xiangguo Temple to stay, Chin Maoshu is much more pitiful than Zhan Zhao.

"You know about him?"

"Some, it's just a fate. He originally had four partners, but now he is the only one left. It's a bit strange."

"kindness?"

"Although he is the youngest among the five rats, he has always been the most effective in speaking among the five rats. There must be some reason for the separation now."

Gongsun Ce rubbed his chin, "It's definitely not as simple as he said."

Hua Manlou nodded, "Then let him follow us. Although you say it's troublesome, you have even arranged for his basic necessities. You don't hate him, do you?"

"Forget me being nosy and being infected by Bao Zheng."

"Let the coachman go to the magistrate to hand over the greeting card later, and we will come to the door tomorrow."

"The diners were talking about Fu Xin's marriage just now. This Fu Xin should be the son of the magistrate, a talented man and a beautiful woman. Why would he want to divorce?" Gongsun Ce couldn't understand. He heard that the county magistrate was not married to Fu Xin. It's so noisy that it's about to hang itself, I'm afraid something really happened inside.

Unspeakable things.

Fu Xin and Gong Yun still know each other, and they went to Yiye Town to look for him. Could it be related to Gong Yun's death?

"Hua Man Lou, I'm thinking, if the owner of that letter is Fu Xin, then the secret in the letter... But I'm not sure if the letter belongs to Fu Xin, who else would it be..."

"Fu Xin and Gong Yun knew each other, and Gong Yun showed signs of being drugged. He used it to cover up others, or something else. The fatal wound was clean and neat, and the action must have been very fast."

"In the room where the crime happened, the clue He Shao, Gong Yun's own injury is a suspicious point, and the rest of the suspicious points are on the letter, Gong Yun, and the footsteps of Zi Shi..."

Thinking of what Zuo Zuo said that day, a thought flashed through Gongsun Ce's mind.

Is it—
