Queen's Detective

The next day, Wang Mansion.

Li Yan, Guan Qingci, Wang Min and others were all standing outside the quiet hall, their eyes fixed on the locked door of the quiet hall, as if they were waiting for something.

"Crack." There was a clear sound of locking from the room, and they could vaguely see a white corner of their clothes through the crack of the door.

At this time, Yan Sanbai in the room said: "Lock it up, I will come out here."

Everyone couldn't help but wait intently, wanting to see how Yan Sanbai walked out of the quiet hall with the door locked.Then, with a sound of "squeak--", Yan Sanbai pushed the door out, stood in front of the hall with a smile on his face, and looked at the people in front of him with different surprises.

Li Yan strode to the door, looked at the open door in amazement, shook his head and laughed, "The door can still be opened like this, it really opened my eyes."

Yan Sanbai smiled, "After all, no one has stipulated that the door must be opened from the middle."

I saw that vermilion door was actually pushed open by Yan Sanbai from the joint between the door and the wall, there is a very hidden mechanism there, as long as one pushes it skillfully, it can be opened.But the door lock in the middle is still in good condition. At first glance, Jingtang seems to be a secret room.But as Yan Sanbai said, the door was actually always open.

Guan Qing stepped forward, the rejection and scrutiny at the beginning were no longer in his eyes, he untied a money bag from his waist and handed it over, "Master Yan is really thoughtful, this is your salary, and now I will pay it back as agreed."

Yan Sanbai took it with some excitement, and said "Thank you." from the bottom of his heart.

Guan Qingci gave a rare smile, although it was just a trace of the corner of his mouth, which could not be noticed without looking carefully, but it was still a smile.According to Yan Sanbai's suggestion, the real place where Wang Jingchuan was killed was also found.Some things need to be considered in reverse, since Wang Qi and Lu Boyuan are accomplices, they must know where the murder scene is.These two people haven't taken Guan Qing to the right place on purpose, so just pay attention to their behavior and look for the opposite place.

So far, the case has been completely closed.

Mr. Guan is still the vigorous and resolute Mr. Guan, he cupped his fists casually, "I still have work to do, so I bid farewell."

Because of receiving the salary, Yan Sanbai's last trace of sadness aroused by Lu Lingge also disappeared with the wind, and he even reached out to wave Guan Qingci.

Not long after Guan Qing resigned, Wang Min also left.He returned to Wang Mansion only to pack his luggage and pick up his mother and sister to go to Diancang Mountain together.Uncle Zhong planned to stay in the mountain bamboo forest in the back to guard the tomb of the three masters and apprentices until they died, so as to atone for their sins.And Wang Min got Lu Shuangxing's inheritance and will be trained as the head of the school. When he grows older, he may become the youngest head of the school in the world.

Going around and going around, causing a cycle of cause and effect, and carrying forward the burden of Guihe Sect, finally fell on Wang Jingchuan's lineage.

"Brother Yan, you must come to Guihe School to see me in the future." The young man reluctantly bid farewell to this unfamiliar person who had given him support in times of great sorrow. His back was so straight, his left hand Arming his mother and holding his younger sister with his right hand, the distant figure is just like his father.

Yan Sanbai believed that after so many years, the day of seeing each other must be the time when he rides the wind and transforms into a dragon.

With the case closed and the salary received, Yan Sanbai also planned to leave here, bid farewell to that friend who 'every chance encounter is fate', and continue his travels in the clouds.

However, his friend grabbed him, Yan Sanbai turned his head and looked at him puzzled, "Is there something else, my lord?"

Li Yan looked at him strangely, his phoenix eyes seemed to be stretched a little bigger, "Aren't you hungry?"

Yan Sanbai rubbed his stomach, "Uh..."

"Are you hungry?" Li Yan obviously misunderstood what Yan Sanbai meant, pulled him up and left, "This king is also hungry, let's go, maybe we can catch up now!"

"Hey!" Yan Sanbai was caught off guard by him, and ran away with him.The two were running on a sparsely populated street in Chang'an City, their red and white clothes were blown by the spring wind, and their handsome faces provoked passers-by along the way.

"My lord! Where are you going!"

"You will know when you arrive!"

Yan Sanbai thought, it's too early for the city gate to be closed, so let's run with him.Although Li Yan is the king of Luoyang, he has a free and easy spirit that no one in the Jianghu has, and he has helped Yan Sanbai a lot, so there is no harm in delaying him for a little time.

But after arriving at the destination, Yan Sanbai became extremely suspicious—why did he run away just now?

"Boss, give me two big sesame seed cakes, as big as my face!" Li Yan gestured to the old man selling sesame seed cakes at Qushui Bridge.

Seeing that the old man's eyesight is not very good, he also gestured to Li Yan, "My lord, your face is too small!"

The oval face of a beauty is generally not too big, at least smaller than the old man's biscuits.

Li Yan was slightly embarrassed, so he had no choice but to say under Yan Sanbai's gaze of suppressing a smile, "Then bring me two sesame seed cakes that are as big as my two faces."

The old man finally gave him two biscuits, Li Yan took it, and was about to hand one of them to Yan Sanbai, but suddenly thought of something, stretched his hand halfway and retracted it.

Yan Sanbai was stunned—why?

Li Yan took the biscuit back, blew on it a few times, and handed it back again, "Try it to see if it's still hot."

Yan Sanbai looked at him, feeling a little moved in his heart.He traveled around the rivers and lakes for several years and met countless friends, but Li Yan was the only one who was so considerate.

"Thank you." He took it and thanked him.He lowered his head and took a bite, um, it was still a little hot, so he blew another breath, and now it was really not hot.

Li Yan saw it in his eyes and kept it in his heart, um, let's breathe a little more next time.

In fact, Li Yan is more curious than the possible mysteries hidden in Yan Sanbai, Yan Sanbai can't stop, how did he survive all these years.

Yan Sanbai wanted to leave after eating the pancakes, but Li Yan held him back and said, "Don't rush away, my grandma wants to see you, I promised her, I will take you back to celebrate her birthday .”

"Grandma?" Yan Sanbai tilted his head and thought for a while. Li Yan's grandma is...the queen mother? !

Yan Sanbai hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, I still won't go."

Li Yan interceded with him, "I've boasted to Haikou, if I can't bring you back, Grandma Grandma will have to cut me, and at least punish me not to leave the palace for seven to seven days. Brother Yan, you just ate a sesame seed cake from me, how can you see that?" Do you want to die or not?"

"This..." Yan Sanbai hesitated.

Li Yan stood in front of his chest with a folding fan in his hand, "Amitabha, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, benefactor."

Yan Sanbai was really amused by him, "Since the Empress Dowager invites you, then let's go down."

In fact, in Li Yan's capacity, he could have directly ordered Yan Sanbai to enter the palace, but he didn't, so Yan Sanbai naturally understood this kind of intention.After thinking about it, it was just going to the palace to let the queen mother take a look, it was not a big deal.

Waiting for them alone at the gate of the palace, followed by an unreliable master, he had to learn to find his own way.

For this imperial palace, Yan Sanbai had already been here once when he was the number one scholar in high school, so he is not very unfamiliar.But this time Li Yan took him straight to the harem, where concubines live together, Yan Sanbai inevitably felt embarrassed walking in it.A gentleman should not look at injustice, nor listen to injustice, so Yan Sanbai didn't take a look at the palace people who happened to come and go on the road.

Instead, they took advantage of the salute with the King of Luoyang and showed him all over.It is rare for a strange man to enter this harem, and this is a handsome man, how can the passing ladies restrain their excitement.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan would come and introduce him to everyone as Yan Sanbai, the hero detective, which made the ladies in the palace look very bright. I am afraid that in a short time, all the ladies in the palace will know that Yan Sanbai is coming.

Yan Sanbai was really helpless and couldn't stop it, but he didn't expect that the more helpless was still behind.

Arriving at the Guanghe Palace where the Empress Dowager lives, Li Yan hadn't seen anyone yet, when a clear voice sounded, "Grandma Zu, I brought the number one scholar here!"

Yan Sanbai almost fell from behind, quickly tugged on Li Yan's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "My lord, you can't be called like that in this palace."

Li Yan looked at Yan Sanbai's flushed ears, and became more and more curious in his heart—what's the matter with this name?Why did he repeat it over and over again, as if he was molesting Yan Sanbai?

Li Yan was about to ask, but Bi Xiao, the maid of honor next to the empress dowager, had already come out to welcome her, so Li Yan had no choice but to suppress her curiosity and lead people in first.

The Empress Dowager sat on the chair, and when she saw Li Yan and Yan Sanbai walking in, she smiled, "Come, come, come quickly."

Yan Sanbai rubbed his nose, took a step forward, and saluted civil servants, "Yan Sanbai sees the Queen Mother."

"Young Master Yan, don't be so cautious. Come on, let me take a closer look." The queen mother is like an ordinary kind old lady, she is happy to see the handsome young man, she pulls him to her, and scrutinizes her carefully, " Sure enough, it's just like the rumors, she looks so handsome, just like our little Feng'er."

Yan Sanbai was slightly embarrassed, then froze again, Xiao Feng'er?What little Fenger?Who is Xiaofeng'er?

He turned his head, and saw Li Yan turned his head away unnaturally, with his hands behind his back, looking calm - there is no 300 taels of silver here.

Yan Sanbai suddenly felt happy, Feng Shui turns around.

At this time, a court lady brought tea, and the queen mother asked Yan Sanbai to sit down and told her interesting things that happened outside the palace.Yan Sanbai chose some less bloody and more interesting cases to talk about. He is a literary champion and has good eloquence.

The Queen Mother was very happy to hear that, and seeing Yan Sanbai became more pleasing to the eye, and asked Bi Xiao to bring him a lot of snacks.The snacks in the palace are indeed extraordinary, even a person like Yan Sanbai who has no appetite, eats a lot by accident.

Seeing that he liked it, Li Yan pushed his own plate over.Yan Sanbai rubbed his nose, feeling a little embarrassed, the queen mother simply covered her mouth and smiled, and didn't make much fun of him.

While chatting happily, someone suddenly reported—"His Royal Highness is here!"

Yan Sanbai couldn't help looking out, and saw a four or five-year-old doll with red lips and white teeth, wearing a red shirt and white silk bottoms, walking in.It can be said that he is a baby, but he is a prince, and he needs to be educated and sensible when he urinates, so even though he is young, he walks in a dignified manner and is very polite.

"Grandma Zu, Brother Yan, Lord Yan." The immature children's voice was correct, and they all called over one by one, and none of them left.

"Little Zongzi, come quickly." The queen mother waved to him, and the prince showed a little lively and playful child, and ran to the queen mother's side.

The crown prince's name is Li Zeduan. Because he was born on the Dragon Boat Festival, the emperor gave him this appropriate name, which means "polite and upright".As for Xiao Zongzi, it must be the baby name given by the queen mother to her lovely little grandson.

The little zongzi was hugged to a chair and sat next to the queen mother, but her big watery eyes glanced at Yan Sanbai, and when Li Yan saw it, she pinched his little nose and teased him, "What are you looking at?"

Xiao Zongzi shook his head, trying to cover up, "I didn't see it."

Li Yan didn't poke him, "Did you finish your homework today?"

"Well, it's finished." Little Zongzi was a little excited, "The queen mother said that I can play with brother Yan today."

"Then do you want to listen to this... brother Yan's story?"

Xiao Zongzi was a little confused for a while, Brother Yan?Brother Yan?stupidly can not tell.But he still nodded affirmatively, staring at Yan Sanbai with big eyes, full of expectation.

Yan Sanbai moistened his throat and told another case.The little zongzi sat upright beside the queen mother throughout the whole process, very well-behaved, only widened her eyes when she was surprised, opened her mouth into a small circle, or giggled at exciting places, her eyes were bright.

For the little prince who has never been out of the deep palace, the outside world is beautiful and full of surprises.

After a while, the queen mother was also tired, so Li Yan picked up the little zongzi and took Yan Sanbai to leave.The Empress Dowager was still reluctant, so she urged: "Xiaoyan, you must stay for dinner later, and tell me more stories in the future, okay?"

How dare Yan Sanbai refuse to obey the Queen Mother.He only thought that he was about to leave Chang'an, who knew when he would come back, the queen mother couldn't find him everywhere.

The three of them left Guanghe Palace, and the little rice dumpling was hugged by Li Yan all the way, his heart was bubbling with satisfaction, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be concealed no matter what.Little Zongzi likes his elder brother Yan the most, this is something that everyone in the palace knows.

Before it was time to eat in the palace, Li Yan took them to rest in the pavilion in the imperial garden.The little zongzi was obviously very curious about this new brother Yan, so Li Yan put the little zongzi next to Yan Sanbai, making the two of them stare.

Li Yan watched from the side for a while—oh, two pairs of big eyes.

"Brother Yan, are you a hero?" Little Zongzi's childish nature gradually revealed, holding the edge of the wooden table in the pavilion with both hands, trying to poke his head so that he doesn't look so short.

Yan San looked at the sky and thought for a while, "Uh...maybe it counts."

"Wow..." Little Zongzi's eyes were filled with admiration, "Then can you fly over walls?"

"Yes."

"Do all heroes wear white clothes?"

"no……"

Li Yan leaned on the vermilion pillar, watched with great interest, then suddenly remembered something, and beckoned Ling Ding to come over, "Let me ask you, is there anything special about the name Zhuangyuanlang?"

Ling Ding suddenly looked at him strangely, "My lord, don't you know?"

Li Yan is even more strange, should this king know?

Ling Ding explained: "This hero Yan is famous all over the world, because he is the imperial detective, so people in the official circle like to call him Lord Yan, but people in the Jianghu like to call him hero Yan. Ordinary people, Mr. Yan, Tan Xia, and Daxia Yan can do anything, but there is a special type of people, the girls from the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, this champion is called by them to moles the hero Yan, the champion The number one scholar, isn't he the man who loves his concubine?"

Hearing this, Li Yan turned to look at Yan Sanbai.No wonder, every time you call him that, his ears turn red, and he looks helpless and embarrassed.

At this time, Ling Ding said suspiciously again: "I thought you knew, my lord, it was on purpose..."

Li Yan raised one corner of his mouth, and said with a leisurely smile: "In your eyes, is this king such a bad guy?"

Hiss...Ling Ding suddenly felt a little cold in his body, and said quickly, "Of course not."

Then he silently added a sentence in his heart—it is absolutely true, yes.
