The county horse is a medicine jar

The officials chasing after Lin Sishen searched the brothel to the bottom, there was a lot of noise outside the house, and from time to time there were official officers slamming the door and chasing people away.Only the woman's room where Lin Sishen was hiding, no one came to search except for the man in green shirt named Runzhu who came to ask about it once before.

Lin Sishen took a serious look at this woman, only to feel that this woman did not look like a brothel woman at all.In addition to her outstanding appearance and temperament, when outsiders intruded and threatened her, she did not panic and calmly dealt with it.

In addition, when the man in the green shirt knocked on the door and asked her, he seemed to be quite gentle and submissive to her in his words.And she dared to call Lin Sishen by Sun Wenqian's name, which shows that her identity is not simple.

Seeing that Lin Sishen was looking at herself thoughtfully and did not reply, the woman didn't feel offended, so she turned her head and glanced at the door, and asked softly, "They should come again in a while, my lord. If you believe me, you might as well hide it on my bed first."

The outside of the brothel has been surrounded on the third floor and the third floor, and Lin Sishen has no good way to escape for the time being. After thinking about it for a while, she can only choose to trust this woman first: "If that's the case, then thank you girl first."

The footsteps outside the door suddenly approached, and the woman didn't have time to drag her. She immediately grabbed Lin Sishen's wrist and dragged her to the bed, motioning her to climb up and hide under the brocade quilt: "Master, just hide it well, don't make a fuss about it."

Lin Sishen got into the brocade quilt, peeking out a pair of eyes from the gap to look around, and saw the woman Shi Shiran took off her coat and put it aside, then lowered the curtain to block her view, while Shi Shiran herself was sitting The side of the bed just blocked Lin Sishen's gaze.

After a while, there was a knock on the door of the room, and Runzhu led the men back, trying to search the woman's room in a tactful manner.

The woman showed a little dissatisfaction, but she cooperated with people to search inside. She put on her coat and raised her hands, walked to the door and opened the door, and asked people to come in and search openly.

As soon as the door was opened, the officials rushed in and began to search the house carefully.After the woman opened the door, she turned around calmly, returned to the bed and sat down.

Run Zhu stood motionless by the door with his hands behind his back. He looked fair-skinned and handsome, with a bookish air all over his body. He didn't look like an official, but a delicate scholar.

His gaze has been on the woman behind the gauze curtain, and he has not moved away for a long time. There seems to be a trace of hidden deep emotion in his eyes.

The officials searched the house up and down, and finally they set their sights on the unsearched bed behind the curtain.

But the bed is a private place after all, several officials looked at each other, someone stepped forward and respectfully said: "Miss Qin, please get up, we still need to search this bed."

Lin Sishen who was hiding in the brocade quilt couldn't help holding his breath, he clenched the dagger hidden in his sleeve and was ready to strike.

The woman calmly smiled coldly, and looked at the officials through the veil: "Why, do you suspect that there is someone hiding in my bed?"

The officials turned pale when they heard the words, and hurriedly waved their hands to explain: "Miss Qin has misunderstood, the low-ranking people want to arrest fugitives, and have no intention of offending the girl."

The woman's eyes flashed, and she stood up abruptly. She raised her hand and lifted the curtain, met the eyes of the officials without arrogance, and said sarcastically, "Everyone can come and step on the land I am in now. I send you. Since you want to search, then come and search as you like."

The officials seemed to be extremely afraid of the woman. Hearing what the woman said, they all turned their heads and looked at Runzhu by the door for help: "My lord, this..."

Run Zhu lowered his eyes and waved his hands: "Forget it, you all go out."

The officials rushed out of the house as if fleeing, and they did not forget to close the door, leaving the woman and Runzhu alone.

Seeing that the woman's expression was a bit desolate, Run Zhu sighed pitifully, walked up to the woman's side two steps forward, raised her hand and gently closed her coat, and said softly: "Qin'er, why are you doing this?" Woolen cloth."

The woman waved his hand away in resistance, and said in a cold voice without mercy: "You don't have to pretend to be in front of me."

Run Zhu slowly withdrew his hand, lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly: "When my uncle left, he told me to take good care of you in every possible way. I know you blamed me, but everything I did was to keep you alive."

The woman smiled softly when she heard the words, her eyebrows and eyes were full of sarcasm: "Really?"

Seeing the woman's resistance, Runzhu seemed to be trying to persuade him softly, he hesitated and said: "Qin'er, you..."

I don't know if it's taboo that Lin Sishen is still there and can't say more, or the woman really hates Runzhu to the extreme, she tightened her clothes and hugged herself, turned her back to Runzhu and gave the order to drive away: "Go, I'm tired gone."

Run Zhu lowered his head and sighed dejectedly, and then told him softly: "Then you should rest and recuperate these few days, Mr. Sun is busy with work, so I will come to see you in a few days."

Hearing Mr. Sun's three words, the woman's face was suddenly as cold as a cicada, and she couldn't help clenching her fists tightly.

Run Zhu turned his head three times and left. When he reached the door, he couldn't help but stop, looked deeply at the woman's back, then gritted his teeth, closed the door and left.

Lin Sishen sneaked through the gap, looked at the woman's expression, and roughly guessed that the woman and Sun Wenqian should have a blood feud, otherwise he would not have seen himself being chased by an official, so he saved himself who had never met.

Not long after Runzhu left, the brothel was bustling again. Lin Sishen crawled out of the bed in a hurry, covered with a faint fragrance. She coughed slightly in embarrassment, and thanked the woman: "Thank you, miss I am extremely grateful for helping out.”

The woman turned around slowly, her pale complexion calmed down, she sized up Lin Sishen a few times, opened her lips and asked, "My lord hasn't answered my question yet, you were chased by the officials, but did you offend Sun Wenqian?"

Lin Sishen lifted his lips and smiled, and replied speciously: "Let's say it is."

The woman's eyes flashed, and she asked again: "The young master is not from Longyou, right? His accent sounds like a person from the capital?"

"I am indeed a businessman from the capital."

Lin Sishen responded casually, and walked a few steps in the house calmly. She looked around and found that there were many ink paintings hanging on the wall. .

In addition, there is a rather strange place. The paintings that one looks at are all birds and beasts trapped in cages, weeping blood and singing for a long time.

The woman walked slowly to the window, pushed the carved wooden window open, and then stepped back two steps: "The official has left, young master can leave safely."

Lin Sishen closed his eyes, took out a bank note with a considerable amount from his waist, put it on the table, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your generous help today, Miss."

The woman shook her head when she saw this, she took the banknote without even looking at it, and handed it back to Lin Sishen: "The little girl is not short of money, but if the young master is grateful, the little girl does have something to ask for."

Lin Sishen was not surprised, but she didn't take back the bank note, she just waved her hand and said: "The bank note is included as a gift, if there is anything you need to help, please tell me."

The woman suddenly took two steps closer, and the coat on her body was blown off by the night wind outside the window, and Lin Sishen saw her soft and slender figure.Under the moonlight, she lowered her eyebrows, her face was fair, gentle and charming. She stuffed the silver ticket back into Lin Sishen's hand, and said softly: "If this matter is not urgent, it's better to tell the young master in a few days."

She didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, when she retracted her hand, she lightly touched the back of Lin Sishen's hand with her little finger, paused for a moment, and then flicked across.If there is a touch like a superficial touch, it will easily make people feel numb and dreamy.

But Lin Sishen hastily withdrew her hand and took two steps back. She frowned and looked at the woman in front of her, a little vigilant in her heart, she just felt that this woman was not simple.

It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, Lin Sishen nodded slightly: "In that case, I will take my leave."

After speaking, Lin Sishen jumped out of the window in the dark, but just as she landed lightly on her toes, a low murmur drifted into her ears with the night wind.

"The little girl sent off to the imperial envoy."

Lin Sishen's expression changed, and he hurriedly raised his head to look at the attic, only to see the thinly dressed woman standing by the window, under the bright moonlight, she looked paler and more fragile, her cold, almost empty eyes were staring intently at look at yourself.

This woman is very intelligent, I don't know if bumping into her today caused trouble.

Lin Sishen squeezed the bank note in his hand and sighed secretly, plunged into the night, and then disappeared without a trace.

Not long after returning to the official post, before Lin Sishen had time to catch his breath, he heard a commotion outside, and the noise was getting louder and louder, vaguely as if someone was shouting for water.

Lin Sishen wanted to go out to ask questions, but the guard Meng Lin came to knock on the door and shouted outside, "My lord, something has happened, the government office has been flooded."

The government office was indeed in trouble, and what happened to be burning was the archives that Lin Sishen had just visited. When Lin Sishen arrived in a hurry with two guards, Sun Wenqian was also lecturing in front of the government office.

As soon as he saw Lin Sishen, Sun Wenqian greeted him immediately, sighed and said helplessly: "I didn't expect to alarm the imperial envoy. Tonight, thieves broke into the file warehouse of the government office and set fire to it. Fortunately, the fire was saved in time. Most of the files have been read."

Lin Sishen sneered in his heart, but asked with concern on his face: "According to what Sun Duhu said, this fire seems to have burned a lot of files?"

Sun Wenqian nodded, feeling quite sorry and heartbroken: "Indeed, it is a pity that the files of the past five years were completely burned. This matter is due to my negligence, and I will report to His Majesty at the meeting to plead guilty."

Lin Sishen didn't even need to guess who set the fire. It must have been done by the old fox Sun Wenqian.She just went to look through the files, and the file library caught fire, and the files that had been suspicious in the past few years were burned.

Sun Wenqian saw Lin Sishen frowned and looked at the file warehouse shrouded in white smoke, a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips calmly, and then disappeared in an instant: "These thieves are really bold, my lord should be very careful these days, why don't I send more Some people go to the official post, so as to protect the adults."

Lin Sishen waved his hands in a pretentious manner and refused: "Please trouble Mrs. Sun, this waste of time and money should be avoided."

Lin Sishen was already struggling in Dingxi City, and Sun Wenqian wanted to monitor Lin Sishen openly under the guise of sending someone to protect him, how dare she agree.

It seemed that there was no need to stay this time, and after a few pleasantries, Lin Sishen left in a hurry.

After seeing Lin Sishen leave, the smile on Sun Wenqian's face turned cold instantly, he looked at Lin Sishen's back quietly, and suddenly said: "Then let's do it, whether it is him or not, anyone who touches on that matter must not stay behind." live."

In the corner beside him, a man in green shirt suddenly came out slowly, it was Runzhu who was chasing Lin Sishen not long ago.

He walked behind Sun Wenqian, cupped his hands respectfully, and said, "Master Protector, but Lin Sishen has a lot of background, he is the son of General Weiyuan or the county horse of Princess Qingyang, if you attack him... it will attract more... eyes."

Sun Wenqian thought for a moment, then sneered and said fiercely: "Then clean it up, lure him out of the city, and let someone pretend to be a vagrant bandit to do it. At that time, we can clean up the troubles outside the city."

Run Zhu nodded in agreement when he heard the words, but soon he hesitated and asked: "But didn't your Highness order that Lin Sishen stay if he can?"

Sun Wenqian waved his hand and said: "Your Highness also ordered that Lin Sishen be punished immediately if he has any disagreements. Your Highness wants to use my hand to find out whether Lin Sishen is loyal to the second prince. Now it seems that he can't be trusted. Keep it." It's the aftermath."

Nothing that happened in the city could escape Sun Wenqian's eyes and ears. He is a smart man. When he saw Lin Sishen for the first time, he felt that Lin Sishen was not a man to deal with. Although there was no evidence for the case files, he vaguely felt that Lin Sishen must be playing tricks.

If it is about investigating the disaster, it can be fooled for the time being, but if it involves that matter, then before she has any clues, kill her first, lest she find out and implicate herself.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Run Zhu immediately took the order: "Since the Du Hu-sama has given the order, I will let people prepare for the humble post in two days."

Sun Wenqian smiled in satisfaction, stroked his beard and said, "Go, if you do this cleanly and beautifully, I will ask His Highness for credit for you."

Runzhu couldn't hide the joyful smile in his eyes: "Don't worry, Lord Protector, the humble post will definitely live up to the high hopes of His Highness and Your Excellency."

Lin Sishen didn't know that Sun Wenqian was so daring and wanted to kill herself, but she just had a faint feeling that something was wrong.Apart from the disaster, it seems that Sun Wenqian is still hiding a big secret.

And this secret must be related to the second prince.

Now she only knows that many people have disappeared in the city in recent years, and many of them are blacksmiths. She suspects that these people did not die, but were taken away and hid somewhere.

Someone is missing in the city, what about other places in the city?

Although Lin Sishen didn't have a clue for the time being, she soon thought that besides Dingxi City, she should go to other places to investigate, maybe she could find some clues in other places.

But the water in Dingxi City was too deep, Lin Sishen couldn't trust anyone except the few people around him, and now the official post was stared at by Sun Wenqian.

It's no wonder that the fourth prince didn't find any clues when he came here. This place is restricted by the situation where no one can do it, and there is no way for anyone to change it.

In Dingxi City, Lin Sishen was thinking of a way to find out Sun Wenqian's hidden secret, while in the capital, Shen Qingwan seemed to have some movement.

When Lin Sishen left Beijing, he ordered his subordinates to rescue Yun Liu who was imprisoned by the second prince, and Shen Qingwan also planned to help in this matter.

I don't know how powerful Shen Qingwan is, but after Li Luo and others searched the capital quietly for a few days, Shen Qingwan suddenly sent someone to find Li Luo, and handed her two secret letters.

One of them briefly wrote an address, and the other reminded Li Luo to rush to Dingxi City as soon as the matter was settled.

Li Luo immediately understood what Shen Qingwan meant, and sent someone there that night, intending to raid Liu Ce's hiding place at night and rescue Yun Liu.

And just when Li Luo and the others were planning to do it, on the official road outside the capital, a carriage was driving silently in the night, galloping all the way in the direction of Longyou.
