"You are right, you are right, I will set off immediately, I will set off immediately." Su Kaishi kept murmuring to himself.
It took him a while to return to normal, and when he realized that he had lost his composure, he showed an embarrassed expression, and then asked: "By the way, what are you doing here?"
Knowing that her daughter's disappearance was no longer clueless, Su Kaishi not only regained her vitality, but also became much kinder to the two of them.
"We would like to know who has purchased 'Seven-Colored Rainbow' from you?" Wang Qi'an said.
"Aren't you here to buy the 'Seven-Colored Rainbow'? Is it just because of this problem?" Su Kaishi said in surprise.
"Because the flow of this spice is related to the lives of dozens of people and the whereabouts of a very important senior," Wang Qi'an said.
"What are you talking about? Could it be that my 'Seven-Colored Rainbow' is still a poison that can harm people?" Su Kaishi suddenly said angrily.
"Master Su, don't get me wrong, this is what happened..." Wang Qi'an knew that strange people have their own strange temperaments, and was not at all concerned about Su Kaishi's change in attitude. He couldn't help but explain the murder that happened in Taipingguan.
Su Kaishi didn't say anything after listening. Instead, he walked away alone and wandered back and forth.
"I didn't expect that my proud work would be used on such a cruel person." He sighed, and then said: "I only prepare one type of incense every year, which is obtained with painstaking efforts and careful research. This year's The finished product is exactly the 'Seven-Colored Rainbow'."
"The products made in our castle are not comparable to those sold in the incense shops in the city, so the price is much more expensive than ordinary spices. Therefore, the people who come here to patronize are either rich or expensive. In the past years, only Princess Changping made frequent purchases. The Mansion, the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of Rites, the Lingnan Gang, as well as the Wending Prince's Mansion and the Wenjing Prince's Mansion, but this year's 'Seven Color Rainbow' Princess Annan of the Wending Prince's Mansion likes it very much, and almost every time she makes a batch, nine out of ten She sent people to buy them all." Su Kaishi added.
"Do you know who the Wending Prince came here to purchase?" Wang Qian asked.
"Could it really be Liu Hongbi's doing?" Ji Wurui said to himself.
"Most of them are Princess Annan's maidservant Wu Niang, and occasionally it's Deputy Manager Xue from the mansion." Su Kaishi recalled.
"Junior, is there anything I still don't understand? This box of 'Seven-Colored Rainbow' in my hand does not smell the fragrance of roses. Did the master distinguish different strains?" Su Kaishi's words were not the only ones Wang Qi'an heard in the temple that day. of seven scents.
"Rose? There is nothing added in Seven Color Rainbow! Roses have a strong fragrance and can easily cover up other fragrances. I rarely choose them among my incense." Su Kaishi seemed not to understand why Wang Qi'an asked this question.
"So, could it be that it's not a seven-color rainbow?" Wang Qi'an wondered inwardly.
The three of them discussed for nearly half an hour before Wang Qi'an and Ji Wurui left together.
Before leaving, Wang Qi'an informed Meng Ke of the location of Boluoshangong Yamen, and hoped that he could bring him the latest news.
"Why is there a lack of rose fragrance? Roses, roses..." On the way back to the city, Wang Qi'an couldn't figure it out.
"Wan Wan, Wuniang, Prince Wen Ding's Mansion, Rose Garden, Rose Garden! I understand!" Wang Qi'an suddenly understood.
"There is a rose garden in Princess Annan's courtyard, which they probably come into contact with on a daily basis. Their clothes are stained with the fragrance of roses, and with the 'seven-color rainbow', I always thought it was a combination of eight spices." Wang Qi'an told Ji Wurui explained.
"One of the murderers is most likely Wu Niang, because Princess Wan Wan does not know martial arts. Today I fought with her and saw the weird speed of her sword." Wang Qi'an thought of Chu Hongyao again. The two of them came from the same school and knew how to do it. Does he also have a share?
"It's such a coincidence that Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived. Who is that person on the horse?" Ji Wurui pointed at a woman who had just galloped out of the city gate.
Wu Niang, dressed in a fiery red outfit, rode out on horseback, and Wang Qi'an hurriedly stepped aside.
It seemed that her injuries today were not serious, and she seemed to be in a hurry to do something.
"By the way, I remember she told Wanwan last night that she was going to meet a special envoy sent by a certain party outside the city today! Come on, let's follow quickly." Wang Qi'an pulled Ji Wurui, and the two of them spread out, Follow Wuniang quietly and leave.
"It seems that she is going to Niuguling." The two of them followed for nearly a tea break, and Ji Wurui, who was familiar with the surrounding terrain, guessed.
As he expected, Wu Niang reined in the reins at the foot of the mountain, which was composed of three peaks and looked like an ox lying on the ground. After she floated off the horse, she looked around, then led the horse to one side and tied it up under three conjoined banyan trees.
After confirming that no one was following her, Wu Niang quickly moved forward along the only path into the mountain.
This ridge has lush vegetation and few people. Wuniang definitely didn’t come here to visit the scenery.
Wang and Ji were cautious, invisible, and followed behind.
Wuniang walked to the mountainside and then turned to the right fork.
"She should be going to Shuiyue Pond." Ji Wurui said.
As soon as I finished speaking, I turned another corner and my eyes suddenly opened up. A small lake was located between the mountains and forests. The lake had no ripples and was as smooth as a mirror.
"This time is indeed a scenic spot!" Wang Qi'an praised.
"If Brother Wang's words reach the city, I'm afraid he will be regarded as a monster." Ji Wurui laughed.
"How can I say this? This time, the mountains and waters are beautiful, peaceful and quiet. Don't Brother Ji think it is a good place to rest?" Wang Qi'an asked strangely.
"Brother Wang is a foreigner, so naturally he doesn't know that Shuiyue Pond has another name, which is called Yueyou Pond. It has been said since ancient times that every full moon night, when the moonlight shines on the water, a ghost who specializes in eating people's hearts will emerge from the pond. Otherwise, this place How could it be so inaccessible and desolate?" Ji Wurui continued to explain.
"How can you believe the nonsense said in the market? If I have the chance, I would like to see this full moon ghost." Wang Qi'an said disapprovingly.
At this time, they saw Wu Niang standing still by the pool, seemingly waiting for someone. The two of them stopped talking and sneaked nearby, taking advantage of the dense trees to hide themselves.
Soon, a figure was seen emerging from the trees on the other side and stopped next to Wuniang.
The person who came was a middle-aged man, of medium build, with a pale face and a dull expression.
"You wrote to me saying that "Baopuzi" has fallen into your hands, but do you really mean it?" The person's words were stiff and cold, lifeless, and made people feel chilled all over.
"Although we haven't obtained it yet, the person who knows the whereabouts of this book has been controlled by us. It's only a matter of time before he speaks!" For some reason, facing this person made Wu Niang feel uncomfortable.
"Get the book within three days and come back to negotiate terms with me!" After the man finished speaking, he returned from the original path into the dense forest without looking back.
Wu Niang did not expect that the other party would be so difficult to deal with. Looking at the place where the other party disappeared, she was stunned. In desperation, she could only go back first.
