When the two came to the stairs, they happened to meet Jiang Li coming back from her inspection outside. As the commander of the Feifeng Female Guard, Jiang Li was responsible for the safety of everyone in the palace. This was an outside restaurant, so security work must not be taken lightly. Just now, when everyone was drinking and chatting happily, she quietly left her seat and went to patrol around Fan Tower. At this time, since Yang Peng and his family were having a banquet at the Tianjing Hotel, the surrounding areas of the Tianjing Hotel were controlled by secret guards and Feifeng female guards, and all key places inside the Tianjing Hotel were also under control. There are royal guards on guard, and hundreds of secret guards and Feifeng female guards strictly control the inside and outside of Tianjing Hotel. However, ordinary people are not restricted from entering Tianjing Hotel to drink. They just cannot go to the top floor of Tianjing Hotel. .

"Master!" Jiang Li saluted.

Yang Peng took her slender hand and asked: "I saw no one just now. Where did he go?" Jiang Li said: "My subordinate went to look around." Yang Peng raised his eyebrows and asked angrily: "Subordinate? " Zhao Jinxi chuckled, Jiang Li was stunned, her face turned slightly red, she lowered her eyes and whispered: "Yes, she is my concubine." Yang Peng laughed and said: "I will go and relieve myself and come back." Then he walked downstairs, Zhao Jinxi hurriedly followed, and Jiang Li quickly said: "I, my concubine, will accompany the master!"

So the two women accompanied Yang Peng down the stairs, and a Fanlou maid immediately came up to them. At this time, these maids already knew Yang Peng's identity, and their attitude was naturally very respectful. The maid bowed and asked, "I don't know." Is there anything I can do for His Highness?" Yang Peng asked: "Where is your toilet?" Upon hearing this, the maid quickly said: "I will lead Your Highness there!" After saying that, she led the way to a bamboo curtain behind the stairs. Walking towards the door, Chen Xiao and three others followed.

Several people passed through the door behind the stairs and came to the yard behind Tianjing Hotel. The hustle and bustle in Tianjing Hotel seemed to disappear immediately. In front of you is a pleasant garden, with a rockery on the right, a bamboo forest on the left, and a small lake in the middle, reflecting the moonlight and the lights of Tianjing Hotel, sparkling, and the bamboo forest on the left There are rows of exquisite wooden houses below, with dots of lights shining through the windows. Two drunkards are staggering out of one of the rows of wooden houses, arm in arm; in the shadows of the back garden, there are some faintly scattered People, they are neither drinkers nor waiters at Tianjing Hotel, but secret guards or Feifeng female guards of Prince Yan's Palace. The back garden of Tianjing Hotel is also firmly controlled by the palace guards.

Yang Peng and others followed the maid to several rows of wooden houses. The maid stopped, turned around, and said to Yang Peng: "Your Highness, this is the toilet." Yang Peng nodded and said to the maid: "Thank you. You!" The maid couldn't help being flattered, her face suddenly turned red, and she asked excitedly: "I wonder, does your Highness need a slave to serve you?" When she said this, there was a strong look of desire in her eyes.

Zhao Jinxi said angrily: "Don't you see me here? I don't need you to serve me, just step back!" The maid's eyes showed a very disappointed look, she responded and backed away.

Jiang Li said to Yang Peng and Zhao Jinxi: "Master, sister, you go in, I will wait for you outside."

Yang Peng nodded and walked into one of the rows of wooden houses with Zhao Jinxi's support. I saw that the wooden house was very clean and elegantly decorated. If I hadn't known that this was a toilet, I would have thought it was an exquisite guest room. In the corner of the wall on the far right, clean water is constantly being sent in, flowing along a water tank. The water tank is connected to many exquisite small bamboo tubes. Water spurts out of all the small bamboo tubes, and below each small bamboo tube is a The round basin, into which the clear water flowing from the small bamboo tube falls; on the left is a row of separate rooms, which are not very big, but more like the cubicles in the bathrooms in hotels in modern society, but compared with those in modern society. The bathroom is so much more elegant.

Yang Peng walked into one of the cubicles with the support of Zhao Jinxi. The cubicle was very clean, as if it had just been cleaned. At this moment, there were footsteps at the door, and at the same time there were the voices of two men talking. The two people who were loving each other stopped immediately.

"Mr. Shang, this kind of thing is too risky. One hundred taels of silver is not enough!" A middle-aged man's voice said. At this time, the two of them had already walked to the sink, and there was the sound of rushing water, as if they were washing their hands. Chen Xiao secretly thought: Mr. Shang, is he Shang Shiheng?

Before he finished this thought, he heard another young voice saying: "How much do you want?" Yang Peng heard this voice, it was the voice of Shang Shiheng. The middle-aged voice who spoke before said: "Five hundred taels, no bargaining. If Mr. Shang is not willing, then find someone else!" Shang Shiheng said without hesitation: "Okay, five hundred taels is five hundred taels. "The middle-aged voice said: "I changed my mind again, I want one thousand taels!" Shang Shiheng said displeasedly: "You are ripping me off!" The middle-aged man chuckled, "Don't say that, Mr. Shang. It sounds so ugly! If Mr. Shang is not willing, then find someone else to do it!" Shang Shiheng pondered for a moment, snorted, and said angrily: "Okay, I'll give you a thousand taels!"

The middle-aged man said: "Pay the money first, and then do the work." Presumably, the middle-aged man was reaching out to ask Shang Shiheng for money at this time. Shang Shiheng snorted and said displeasedly: "Take it!" Then there was a rustling sound, it must be the middle-aged man counting the banknotes. After a while, the middle-aged man said with a smile: "Young Master Shang is worthy of being Young Master Shang, he is so generous!" Shang Shiheng asked coldly: "Is there nothing to say now?"

The middle-aged man chuckled and vowed: "Don't worry, sir, everything will be taken care of by me." "Yes. If things go well, I will give you another thousand taels of silver." The middle-aged man said happily: "Then Thank you so much, Mr. Shang!" Shang Shiheng said: "Don't be too happy first, you have to get things done first!" After a pause, "This is not the place to talk, come with me." Then there were steps. There was a sound and he came out of the toilet.

Yang Peng muttered to himself: "This young man is probably planning to do something bad!" 'At this moment, I suddenly felt Zhao Jinxi's warm and soft body wrapped around me. I couldn't help but look at Zhao Jinxi. I saw Zhao Jinxi's eyes were half closed, his red lips were slightly open, and he looked so charming and seductive that he couldn't help himself.

Yang Peng's heart skipped a beat, and he kissed her red lips and said, "I'm going out for a while and I'll be back soon. You wait for me here." Without waiting for Zhao Jinxi to answer, he unlatched the door and went out. When Zhao Jinxi was in love, he was left hanging in the air, full of passion, unable to move up or down, and couldn't help but feel depressed. Fortunately, Yang Peng came back in just a moment. Zhao Jinxi was very happy. Her pink legs and jade arms immediately wrapped around her, and she asked coquettishly: "What did you do?" Yang Peng hugged Zhao Jinxi's slender waist and kissed her. With red lips, she said with a smile: "Go and tell Jiang Li to send someone to monitor that guy Shang Shiheng! That guy is so sneaky, I don't know what he is doing!"

A secret guard rushed outside the bathroom and reported to Jiang Li. Jiang Li frowned and gave some instructions. The secret guard clasped his fists in agreement and immediately ran down again. Jiang Li turned around and ran into the bathroom to report the situation to Yang Peng, but she faintly heard a suppressed cry. Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, and then she thought of something, and her heart skipped a beat, and Xiafei's cheeks trembled. After hesitating for a moment, he tiptoed toward the cubicle where the sound came from. When I came outside the cubicle, I suddenly felt a desire to be narrow-minded. I reached out and grabbed the handle of the cubicle door. I pushed it hard. The door was not locked and opened immediately.

The two people involved were startled. They turned around hurriedly and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw it was Jiang Li. At this time, the two were hugging each other tightly, Zhao Jinxi hugged Yang Peng's neck tightly, and Yang Peng had one arm around Zhao Jinxi's slender waist.

Yang Peng said angrily: "I'm really scared to death by you!" Jiang Li's eyes showed excitement, and she clasped her fists and said: "I don't dare to disturb the master and sister, but there are some things that need to be reported to the master! I'm so presumptuous. Please forgive me, Master and sister!"

Yang Peng put Zhao Jinxi down, and Zhao Jinxi hurriedly adjusted her clothes. Her face was blushing and she looked like she still had something to say. Yang Peng also quickly buttoned up his clothes and pants and said, "This is not a good place to talk. Go out and talk." Then the three of them left the toilet and came to a willow tree by the lake.

Yang Peng asked: "What's going on?" Jiang Li clasped her fists and said: "I sent someone to monitor Shang Shiheng and the other middle-aged man according to the master's instructions. It turns out that the middle-aged man turned out to be a cook at Tianjing Hotel."

"Shang Shiheng, Zhuang Shaocheng and Luo Yanran, the master and maid, are eating and drinking in a box at the moment. Our people have inquired with the restaurant and it was Miss Luo Yanran who ordered the box. She should have invited these two people. Not long ago, After Shang Shiheng and the cook secretly talked in the bamboo forest, Shang Shiheng handed something to the cook, and then they separated, one went back to the cupboard, and the other went back to the box. . When I saw something was wrong, I ordered someone to arrest the cook."

Yang Peng nodded and praised: "You did a good job!" Jiang Li couldn't help but be very happy when she heard Yang Peng's praise. Yang Peng asked: "Where is the cook now?" "It's in the bamboo forest behind, being watched by our people." Yang Peng walked towards the bamboo forest, with Jiang Li and Zhao Jinxi following closely behind.

When I came to the bamboo forest, I saw a dark group in front of me. Several people were surrounding a person, and that person was squatting on the ground. Yang Peng and the others approached, and the secret guards clasped their fists and bowed to the Yang Peng trio, saying: "Greetings to King Yan, and to the two princesses." The man squatting on the ground was shocked at first, and then hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, shouting: "You villain, The villain is wronged! The villain is just an honest and honest common man, please ask the King of Yan to learn from it!"

Yang Peng took a look at him, and through the moonlight that filtered through the bamboo leaves, he saw a short-built middle-aged man with a wretched appearance and a cunning look on his face. He smiled and said, "Honest common people? I'm afraid not so. Who was it just now? Received a banknote of one thousand taels from Shang Shiheng?" The middle-aged man sighed. He didn't expect that King Yan would know about this matter. He felt unbelievable, and then quibbled: "Ignorant, I don't know that Prince Yan What are you talking about? The villain doesn’t know Shang Shiheng at all!”

Yang Peng smiled coldly and said, "What a tricky guy! Come on, search me!" Several secret guards agreed, and the middle-aged man panicked. Two secret guards grabbed his left and right arms and lifted him up, and then a secret guard started groping on him. After a while, he took out a stack of banknotes and two small blue and white porcelain bottles used to hold medicinal powder, and presented them to Yang Peng. Yang Peng picked up the banknote and asked, "What is this?" The middle-aged man said, "This, this is the villain's own money!"

Yang Peng couldn't help but admire this guy and said: "You really don't shed tears until you see the coffin! Anyway, I don't bother to ask. There are eyewitnesses and these physical evidences that are enough to convict you! You two, put it down He was taken to Dali Temple and handed over to Master Hua!" The two secret guards holding the middle-aged man agreed in unison.

The middle-aged man was panicking now. He originally thought that as long as he denied it, the other party would let him go if they couldn't find out the reason. However, he didn't expect that things seemed to be getting worse. The other party actually wanted to take him to Dali Temple. I'm afraid there won't be any good results from this trip! The middle-aged man shouted urgently: "I, I, I said it!"

Yang Peng raised his right hand to signal the two secret guards to stop, and the two secret guards stopped. Yang Peng said: "It will do you no good to be clever. Only by telling the truth honestly can you save yourself!"

"Yes, yes, villain, I will tell you the truth, I will tell you the truth!" Yang Peng glanced at the two small porcelain bottles and asked, "Shang Shiheng gave you two bottles of poison. Who do you want to poison?"

The middle-aged man was startled and said anxiously: "No, it's not poison! Of these two bottles, one is an anesthetic, and the other is, yes, yes..." When the middle-aged man said this, he hesitated. He seemed to hesitate to speak. Jiang Li shouted: "Say!" The middle-aged man was so frightened that he couldn't help but said: "That's an aphrodisiac!" Yang Peng and his two wives looked at each other, only to hear the middle-aged man continue: "Listen, listen to Master Shang. , seems to be trying to stun Young Master Zhuang Shaocheng, and then, then, he, he..." Yang Peng said: "He wants to use this bottle of aphrodisiac to deal with Miss Luo, right?" The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Yes, that's it. !" Yang Peng smiled coldly.

Infinite fear suddenly arose in the heart of the middle-aged man. His legs became weak and he couldn't help but knelt down. He kowtowed and begged for mercy with tears streaming down his face: "Little man, little man is really obsessed with things! Little man, little man is originally Those who are determined not to do such a thing are all businessmen trying to balance him, he, he used money to seduce me! The villain deserves to die, please be kind to the King of Yan! The villain deserves to die, please show mercy to the King of Yan!"

Yang Peng said to the two secret guards holding the middle-aged man: "Take this guy to Dali Temple and let Hua Jieyu deal with it!" The middle-aged man thought that everything would be fine if he confessed, but he didn't expect that he would still be sent away. When he went to Dali Temple, his face suddenly turned pale, and he begged for mercy: "Your Highness, have mercy! Your Highness, have mercy!..." Yang Peng saw that this guy's yelling was unlikely to attract the attention of others, he frowned and turned to Jiang Li He winked. Jiang Li understood, and immediately ran to the middle-aged man, raised her knife and struck him on the neck. With a snap, the middle-aged man's screams suddenly stopped, his head tilted, and he fainted. The two secret guards immediately dragged the middle-aged man down.

Yang Peng picked up the two blue and white porcelain vases from the secret guard's hands, looked at them, and smiled coldly.

Zhao Jinxi said with disdain on his face; "This kind of man is really useless, he actually wants to use this method to get the woman of his heart!" Yang Peng smiled and said: "I'm afraid this Mr. Shang is a drunkard who is too drunk to drink! Zhao Xiangxiang's heart moved, "The Nu family heard that the Luo family is a rich man in Yangzhou. Could it be that the businessman is trying to steal her family's property?" Yang Peng asked with a smile: "Do you think these scholars are smart?" Zhao Jinxi He said with disgust: "Shamelessness is the real thing!" Yang Peng laughed.

Zhao Jinxi said anxiously: "Husband, we should tell Miss Luo about this!" Yang Peng touched his chin and looked at the two porcelain bottles in his hands, and said with a bad smile: "This is boring, I have another way ," and then expressed his thoughts. Both women opened their eyes wide and seemed very surprised. Then they looked at Yang Peng with a strange expression and wanted to say: Brother, you are so bad!

Yang Peng said to Jiang Li: "Call a clever Feifeng female guard to come, give her this bottle of aphrodisiac, and ask her to wait for the opportunity to take the medicine."...

Soon after, Yang Peng, Zhao Jinxi, and Jiang Li came to the private room next to Shang Shiheng's. It happened that the guests in this private room had just finished eating when Yang Peng and the others came in. The Tianjing Hotel is a government-owned property of Yanyun, so Yang Peng can do whatever he wants here.

Yang Peng walked to the wall, gently stepped on the chair placed beside the wall, then took down the picture of the maid dancing hanging on the wall, turned around and handed it to Jiang Li below. Jiang Li took the painting and gently placed it against the small table. The picture of the maid dancing was taken down, revealing two holes on the wall, which had obviously been left long ago. In fact, all government-run restaurants and brothels in Yanyun have similar facilities. The persons in charge of these government-run establishments have received certain training. If suspicious persons are discovered, they will use these facilities to deal with suspicious persons. Personnel monitor the situation and report any problems immediately. Previously, the Xixia mission's attack on the Tubo mission was stopped in time for this reason.

Yang Peng saw the scene next door through the hole in the wall: four people were sitting around a small round table. The two men were Shang Shiheng and Zhuang Shaocheng, well-dressed and elegant, and the two women were Luo Yanran and her bodyguard. The maids Yun'er and Luo Yanran are still wearing masks, and their true faces are hidden. They are mysterious and seductive. A maid in Fei Fengnu disguise is standing by the table holding a wine bottle. The food and wine in front of the three people were divided into four portions. Each person ate his own portion without disturbing each other. This is a recently popular way of dining in the Central Plains and has been sought after by many people, especially young people.

Shang Shiheng said: "Actually, I should have waited to invite Miss Yanran, but it ended up costing the lady money!" Luo Yanran said calmly: "Both young masters are too kind to refuse, so it is better for a little girl to be the host!" The two men exchanged views with each other. Looking at each other, they all showed displeasure, obviously blaming the other party for arguing with themselves. It turned out that after Luo Yanran received the invitation from the two people in Shangzhuang, she just wanted to refuse it, but then she thought about it, if she couldn't make the two people give up on this idea, she was afraid that they would continue to harass her in the future, so she thought As a plan, he wrote two letters to the two people in Shangzhuang, inviting them to come to Fanlou for a banquet. The two people in Shangzhuang were naturally overjoyed when they received Luo Yanran's letter, and arrived at the box agreed by Fan Lou early that night.

However, neither of them expected that instead of seeing the goddess in their hearts, they would see their love rival in the box. The love rivals were extremely jealous when they met. They didn't speak to each other and just sat at the round table. Not long after, Luo Yanran's two maids came. After chatting with the merchant, he called the maid and ordered four portions of wine and food. At this time, Shang Shiheng left with an excuse, and then Yang Peng and Zhao Jinxi heard Shang Shiheng and the middle-aged cook talking in the toilet.

Shang Shiheng picked up the wine glass and smiled at Luo Yanran: "With this glass of wine, I wish Miss Yanran everything goes well and she finds a good husband!" Luo Yanran picked up the wine glass and said, "Thank you, sir." Then she left her hand. He lifted the curtain, put the wine glass in with his right hand, took a small sip, and then put the wine glass back on the table. The two people in Shangzhuang couldn't help but lose consciousness when they saw the faint red lip marks on the wine glass.

Shang Shiheng came back to his senses and shouted to the maid standing beside him: "Pour some wine!" The maid immediately came over and poured a glass for Shang Shihengman. Shang Shiheng and Zhuang Shaocheng only had Luo Yanran in their eyes, and nothing else mattered to them. In the eyes, Luo Yanran did not want to meet their eyes and lowered her head. Next to her, Yun'er was busy picking the young lady's favorite dishes into a small plate; however, Yang Peng saw the fake maid serving the merchant While Shiheng was pouring the wine, white powder slipped from his fingertips into Shang Shiheng's wine glass and disappeared without a trace in an instant under the impact of the wine. Then the fake maid followed the same example and poured another glass of wine for Zhuang Shaocheng. Yang Peng saw this scene in his eyes and showed a smile as if he was watching a good show.

What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
