Lord, pay for the wine

I have to praise Lin Yuehua's father's taste. Along the way, the scenery of the entire courtyard is well-arranged without being obtrusive. Yan Anxuan couldn't help but praise Uncle Lin greatly in his heart.

It's just that Yan Anxuan was very puzzled when he saw some servants carrying gifts coming in from time to time along the way.

"Jin Yu, isn't this just an ordinary family banquet? Why do they still bring so many gifts?"

"Let's get closer!"

"...Since those who can participate in the family dinner must be family members, why do we need these gifts to maintain the relationship between family members! I feel sorry for them when I look at the boxes."

Zong Jinyu smiled and said, "So you can easily identify their relationship from these gift houses."

Yan Anxuan thought for a while and said, "You mean that the relationship between those who give gifts is far away, and those who don't give gifts are relatively close?"

"It's almost like this. The more you show off your gifts, the weaker your relationship will be."

"...So it's really troublesome to say this!" Yan Anxuan's expression was complicated.

"Yeah, so life is very complicated, especially in such a family."

"Then... what about your house?" Yan Anxuan asked along the way.

Zong Jinyu smiled and said, "It's simple and simple, but it's also complicated. The situation of my family is very different from that of the Lin family."

"No collateral disturbance?"

"No, on the contrary, there are too many things related to it, even to the extent that it affects the whole body."

Yan Anxuan smiled in disbelief, patted Zong Jinyu on the shoulder and said, "In this way, your family is very similar to the royal family! But the people in the royal family are not as leisurely as you!"

"why?"

"When you are away, I can see that you are traveling and studying, but since you will waste a lot of time in my inn, and rush to the city for my affairs, I don't think you should be pinching the clock all day long." A calculating royal." Yan Anxuan tilted his head and said seriously.

"Well," Zong Jinyu nodded slightly, and said in agreement, "It makes sense."

Yan Anxuan said again as if talking to himself: "If you really are, wouldn't I lose a lot of money?" I lost all of myself, and I couldn't even get my money back.

I will not leave my father, and I can infer that my father must have settled in Yezhen after adopting me because of some sad things, and the person who hurt him must be someone from the capital!Yan Anxuan thought.

Before Zong Jinyu left Yezhen, he sent a letter to his father who was far away in the capital. The main purpose was to ask his father to do something he should do, whether it was about his mother and concubine or Su Xiuran.

As for whether Wang Ran is Su Xiuran himself, he thinks that his shrewd and wise father will figure it out by himself, although the truth is almost inseparable.

But Zong Jinyu is not very concerned about why Prince Rui himself has not made up his mind for a long time, or why he has made up his mind but lost the courage to look for it.His mission is done, isn't he?

Thinking of Zong Jinyu's mother and concubine, Zong Jinyu felt distressed, puzzled and resentful. As a woman, she lived a very successful life in this life. As Prince Rui and Concubine, she had a son who was crowned king at a young age, and the palace There is no side concubine or concubine room.

It's just that as a wife, she didn't get the love of her husband, and as a mother, she didn't let her son have good expectations of herself.

In her entire life, perhaps the only thing she succeeded was playing the role of Prince Rui and Princess Rui!

When the father was young, he was the object that all the famous girls in the capital wanted to marry. His mother and concubine could stand out from them, so it must be not a simple person!Otherwise, with his father's ability, how could he not be able to find Su Xiuran for so many years.

I just don't know why after so many years, the father still can't forget that person?Is it the obsession that cannot be obtained or found, or the regret of getting rid of Wushan?Is it true love from the heart or a carrier of longing for comfort?Is it the reminiscence of youth or the uneasiness about the passing of time?

These can only be truly understood by those who have experienced it.Zong Jinyu thought.

Because both of them were thinking about something, Zong Jinyu didn't notice a figure not far away, and it was even more impossible for Yan Anxuan to find out.

"...how could...he...how could he be here?" a man muttered to himself.

"My lord, what's the matter?" the guard next to the man asked.

"It's okay, call the steward here to see me, I have something to ask him." The man ordered.

Although it was just a one-sided relationship before, but in the officialdom, I will definitely pay more attention to people like King Lin. This person's body, description and appearance are too similar to King Lin's!The man pondered, the most important thing now is to know if there is any important person from the Lin family coming?If it is a mistake, it is all as stupid.If it is really King Rin, but the Lin family has not revealed any big names, presumably it is because King Rin's husband doesn't want others to know his true identity, then I... can also find a chance to recommend myself.

It's just a little strange that today is obviously the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, why does King Lin appear here?If he was invited, then he must be a young lady from the Lin family... Then the man dressed in men's clothing beside him must be the young lady disguised as a man.

The man smiled in satisfaction and left quietly.

If Yan Anxuan knew that he was being regarded as a lady disguised as a man, the life of that man would not be very easy. After all, Zong Jinyu would do things for Yan Anxuan that did not conform to his identity and image!

But Yan Anxuan couldn't help not noticing this little episode, and even Zong Jinyu didn't notice it.

"Jin Yu, do you feel a little hungry?" Yan Anxuan asked.

Zong Jinyu smiled knowingly: "You're hungry." His tone was very firm.

Yan Anxuan nodded shyly.

"Then go to the kitchen first?" Zong Jinyu asked jokingly.

"...No... No need, let's go to Zhengyuan first!" Yan Anxuan replied with a blushing face.

"Well, you might find something good if you go early." Zong Jinyu was confident.

"?" Yan Anxuan looked at Zong Jinyu puzzled.

"You'll know when you see it." Zong Jinyu said.

Standing at the gate of Zhengyuan, Yan Anxuan felt that his previous praise was premature, and this place is really a magnificent scene in the world!

"It seems that Uncle Lin likes Aunt Lin very much!" Yan Anxuan turned to Zong Jinyu and said, "Perhaps our previous guess was a bit off."

Zong Jinyu frowned slightly, he couldn't understand what a woman was thinking, the scenes along the way were indeed far inferior to this place, whether it was deliberate or Uncle Lin's sincerity.

"..." Zong Jinyu didn't speak, he heard some movement vaguely, hugged Yan Anxuan's waist and hid under the tree beside him.

Impressively, there is Mrs. Lin's entourage, but her entourage is unexpectedly simple.

Seeing their figures disappearing from sight, Zong Jinyu took Yan Anxuan across the wall, and then Zong Jinyu used a few almonds to touch the Baihui acupoints of the few people left behind with lightning speed, and they immediately fell to the ground.

Yan Anxuan carefully approached them, pounded their bodies with a branch, and found that none of them had moved, and when he settled down, a strong curiosity came immediately.

"Jin Yu, how...how did you do it?" Yan Anxuan asked excitedly.

"I just tapped their Baihui acupoint." Zong Jinyu explained.

"Baihui acupoint?" Yan Anxuan tilted his head and thought: "I heard from my father that this acupoint is located at the intersection of the midline of the top of the head and the line connecting the tips of the two ears. The Baihui acupoint is the Governor Vessel. At the meeting, I was hit in the head and passed out unconsciously. Unexpectedly, it is really possible! I thought it was just talking."

"Yes, it just requires a certain amount of knowledge." Zong Jinyu said, "If you are interested, I can teach you."

"Great, it's settled." Yan Anxuan couldn't help showing a malicious smile when he thought that he could tap acupuncture points when he was upset in the future.

As if knowing what was going on in Yan Anxuan's mind, Zong Jinyu tapped Yan Anxuan's forehead and said, "Anxuan, this thing can't be used to do bad things."

"Well--"

"But it's okay to adjust it occasionally, just not too much." Zong Jinyu relaxed.

"Okay!" Yan Anxuan replied very readily.

"It seems that Mrs. Lin is quite at ease here." Yan Anxuan commented on the unlocked door.

"After all, it's the courtyard where I live, and only my own people come and go. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so relieved that only a few people will be left behind." Zong Jinyu said.

"...I was thinking, if she is so relieved, there will be no noticeable traces in her room." Yan Anxuan pondered.

"No, she will only do this—" Zong Jinyu pushed open the door and signaled Yan Anxuan to look inside.

"Ah! Sure enough, it's not that simple!" Yan Anxuan exclaimed.

What appeared in front of his eyes was another door, and this door was tightly closed at this time. In addition, there was a small and delicate lock on it, and the color and texture seemed to be golden locks.

Yan Anxuan stepped forward and just touched the lock.

Zong Jinyu shouted: "Anxuan, be careful!" After speaking, he hugged Yan Anxuan into his arms, and the steel needles flew past Yan Anxuan's ears.

"...What's going on?" Yan Anxuan was stunned.

Seeing that Zong Jinyu wanted to touch the lock, Yan Anxuan immediately stood in front of Zong Jinyu, frowned and blamed, "Why do you still want to touch him? What if you hit him? What if it's poisonous?"

"Anxuan, it's okay." Zong Jinyu patted Yan Anxuan's head and said in relief, "These needles are only used when people are not prepared, and they only work for the first time."

"..." Yan Anxuan took two steps back.

Zong Jinyu stepped forward, hugged Yan Anxuan into her arms, patted him on the back, and said, "Not like this next time, next time I will tell you in advance before you act."

Hearing Yan Anxuan's soft reply, Zong Jinyu felt relieved.

"Then what about this lock?" Yan Anxuan let go of Zong Jinyu and asked, pointing at the lock.

Zong Jinyu smiled and said: "Since Mrs. Lin has even thought of the steel needle technique, she will know how the needle is used, even so." Zong Jinyu took out a dagger from his sleeve and snapped it neatly Cut off the lock and said: "Just cut it off."

"Ah! What a wonderful dagger! And won't you get sick with the dagger in your sleeve?"

Zong Jinyu gave him a meaningful look and said, "Just get used to it."

"..." Yan Anxuan turned his head, glanced at the room briefly, and blurted out: "How should I put it? It's surprisingly ordinary! And the objects here don't seem to be new, half-new and not old."

"Indeed, it's quite consistent with what her appearance shows." Zong Jinyu agreed.

"Then... how to find it?" Yan Anxuan was at a loss.

Zong Jinyu smiled, pointed to the direction of getting off the bed, and said with a smile, "You can start from there."
