Chapter 44 The Peony Guest

Peony Guest ([-])

The contents of the letter happened to be what Lu Xiaofeng wanted to know all along.Since Hua Manlou wanted to help Shangguan Yun, of course he had to be fully prepared, otherwise, if he went in at a loss, wouldn't he be falling into someone else's trap?

Shang Yue is Shangguan Yun's old lover.As for why it has become like this now, you have to ask the two parties involved.

After burning some letters, Lu Xiaofeng looked at Huamanlou.

"Shang Yue, you have a lot of background."

"It's really not a good thing." Hua Manlou nodded and said, "Lu Xiaofeng, why are you staring at me all this time?"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Of course it's because you are handsome, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances."

"Then you can find a mirror, maybe, then you can see a more handsome person." Hua Manlou said with a serious face, without any trace of joking.

"The way Huamanlou praises people is becoming more and more like Lu Xiaofeng." Lu Xiaofeng said, stretched out his hand to hold Huamanlou's hand, and took her hand to his face, "Huamanlou, think about it, I What kind of person is he?"

The face touched by the fingertips belonged to Lu Xiaofeng, although it was not the first time to touch Lu Xiaofeng's face, but this time, it was very strange.

"There are two dimples, four eyebrows, handsome... Lu Xiaofeng."

"The building is full of flowers."

"The reason why I asked you to come here is...to avoid people's eyes and ears. Besides, Lu Xiaofeng likes to tease people, and if he is teased, he also wants to try teasing others occasionally." Huamanlou indeed has more ways to invite Lu Xiaofeng to come, but I chose this method, naturally...

He is also playful.

Lu Xiaofeng was a little depressed.Did he bring Huamanlou down?Hey, when did Hua Manlou love to play tricks like him.

Lu Xiaofeng was depressed, Hua Manlou smiled with satisfaction.He knew that Lu Xiaofeng had been having doubts about the way he invited him these few days, and he deliberately whetted Lu Xiaofeng's appetite these few days, holding back until today.

This kind of reason is enough for Lu Xiaofeng.

"Then, Shang Yue has appeared, shall we wait and see what happens?"

"Tomorrow, Shangguan Yun will come to see us, and he will come with luggage." Hua Manlou is sure that Shangguan Yun will come, and also that Shang Yue will chase after him. As for the private affairs between the two, he and Lu Xiaofeng will not interfere , but Shangguan's family was wiped out, and they will not stop there.

On the second day, Shangguan Yun appeared in Huamanlou's room in a mess. Lu Xiaofeng was still leaning on the bed and teasing Huamanlou. Suddenly, such a person rushed in. Lu Xiaofeng was annoyed. He should have gotten closer to Huamanlou just now. With a third person, the chance to be alone is gone.

Holding the burden, Shangguan Yun looked at Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou out of breath, and didn't bother to care about their relationship, and said directly: "Seventh brother."

"Well, you stay here for now." Hua Manlou nodded and said, "Leave the rest to us."

"Hey, boy, you also have times when you are in such a mess." Who is Lu Xiaofeng, he fought against Shangguan Yun several times, but he couldn't gain the upper hand, this time it is rare to see Shangguan Yun in a mess.

Shangguan Yun glared at Lu Xiaofeng angrily, snorted, turned around and hid in the inner room.

After Hua Manlou and Lu Xiaofeng got dressed, they sat at the table and waited for a guest to come.Less than half an hour later, an extraordinary guest came to the small courtyard full of flowers.

"Master, Master!"

"Huaping, go down and make tea."

"Yes, master." Seeing that his master looked as expected, Hua Ping obediently went down to make tea.

Hearing the footsteps of the approaching people, Huamanlou gathered the folding fan in his hand, put it on the table, facing the door, and just as Shang Yue stepped into the room, Huamanlou opened his mouth.

"Whoever comes is a guest, why not sit down and have a cup of tea."

"Tea is worse than wine."

"Not everyone is like you, drunk to death, soaking in the wine jar when nothing happens."

"It's not good to be greedy, but I'm only greedy for your cup of Baihua Niang..."

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou sang together, so that Shang Yue who just came in had no room to interrupt.But Shang Yue was not polite, sat down, and took the teacup from Hua Ping's hand. After all, it was unusual, and there was no emotion on his face.

After the play was over, Hua Manlou said, "I don't know why your Excellency came here."

"For one person." Shang Yue didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "I know he came to look for you, but since I don't want to see you, I'll let him be quiet for a few days."

Lu Xiaofeng raised his eyebrows: Dare to love this person who knows everything, Shangguan Yun thinks that he is just playing with officials to catch thieves, but he doesn't know that this official has already played with thieves in his hands.

"Then you come?"

"You must know about the Shangguan family for a while, and I also know about the relationship between Huanzi and Yun'er. I just want to tell you that if you intervene in this matter, there is no room for withdrawal, and... if you want the other party to obey the law, most likely impossible?"

Shang Yue must know something.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Second Lord Shang, the boss behind Shuiyun Pavilion, and the master of Feng Sanniang."

"Since I know my background, I can't settle things that are not fair. You are sure? Young man, do you want to pay the Hua family and save your life?" Shang Yue glanced at Lu Xiaofeng after finishing speaking and said, "Or, Lu Daxia intends to rely on the rules of the rivers and lakes to wipe people's necks? If the matter is so simple, will the Shangguan family end up like this?"

The Shangguan family is a family of perfumers in the world, many of the dignitaries in the capital are their regular customers, not to mention the dignitaries, even the incense in the palace also comes from the Shangguan family.

For such a business relationship, both the business community and the imperial court should have some contacts, but why did the government here say it was just an ordinary revenge case, which was closed in less than three days.

"Young man, that's all I've said." Shang Yue stood up, the cup of tea in front of him was still warm, "If you insist on doing this, you should know where to find me. If you don't know, he does too."

When you're done, turn around and leave.

Huamanlou and Lu Xiaofeng knew that this matter was not just seeking revenge in the Jianghu, but also understood the advantages and disadvantages of it, but Shang Yue reminded them that the matter was far beyond their expected scope.

Shangguan Yun came out from inside, glanced at the door, sat down beside Huamanlou and said, "Peony's secret recipe..."

"There are more than 30 people, only you survive, the secret recipe is not the key, you are the key." Lu Xiaofeng knocked on the table and spoke, Shangguan Yun nodded.

Hua Manlou asked, "Have you ever made this fragrance?"

"No." Shangguan Yun shook his head and said, "Peony Hakka has a secret recipe, and the order and quantity of spices are very clear, but no one has made it so far, maybe because... something is missing."

The recipe of Peony Ke Yixiang has always been a family heirloom of the Shangguan family, and this fragrance was only refined by an elder 50 years ago, and it has never been seen again.But just after the new year, I don't know who spread the news that Peony Ke refined it, Shangguan Yun refined it.

"What miraculous effect does Peony Guest have?"

"The body has a strange fragrance, which can confuse people's hearts and minds. It is similar to a slow poison, but it will not kill you. It will only control the person's mind..." Shangguan Yun hesitated for a moment when he said this: "Colorless and odorless , the genius doctor can't find out the reason, and... it can also stimulate passion|desire."

"Aphrodisiac?"

"That's not it!" Although Shangguan Yun was a little embarrassed after knowing the effectiveness of Peony Ke, but this is something passed down from his ancestors, so there is no room for others to say that.

"There are many girls in the world who want to wear fragrance on their bodies. They don't need to carry sachets with them. As long as they are paired with Peony Ke, it only takes one month to smell fragrance all over their bodies. The indelible smell will last for a lifetime."

"No wonder the world is hard to find."

"What's missing, do you know?" Hua Manlou frowned and said, "Could it be that something is missing from the formula?"

"Did the elder in your family leave any clues? Maybe we can start here."

Shangguan Yun shook his head, "Even if there is, those elders of my family will not find it after so many years. In the past 50 years, no one has refined Peony Ke." Suddenly remembered something and said: "Tomorrow, you will come with me Go back, although those people searched the house, but one place must have survived."

"Then what have you been doing these past few days?"

Shangguan was speechless.

He was almost under house arrest in Shuiyun Pavilion. Although he was served with delicious food and drink, he couldn't go out. He was not a master of the rivers and lakes, and he was not Feng Sanniang's opponent at all.

Although he knew that Shang Yue was hiding in Shuiyun Pavilion temporarily for his own benefit, and there were people protecting him, but——

"You rest first."

"Seventh Brother—"

"Don't worry." Hua Manlou stood up, shaking his fan.Seeing this, Lu Xiaofeng stood up, and the two walked out together.
