Hua Yitang fainted, as if a hornet's nest had been stabbed. Muxia stood up and shouted, Yita shouted that she didn't understand Tang language, and more than 20 servants rushed in from outside the waterside pavilion. Muxia quickly ordered them to get busy. Some were fetching water, some were shaking fans, and some were calling for doctors. It was a mess, and the noise was so loud that veins popped out of Fang Qian's forehead, and he shouted:
"What's the fuss about? Everyone shut up!"
The entire waterside pavilion suddenly became quiet, and everyone seemed to have pressed the pause button. They all looked at Fang Chu rolling up his sleeves, placing his fingers on Hua Yitang's veins one after another, and then suddenly remembered that this red-clothed widower He was originally a doctor.
Lin Sui'an was also a little nervous. Ever since she met Hua Yitang, she had never seen him look so weak. What was worse was that Fang took his pulse for a long time without saying a word and even sighed.
Lin Sui Anxin was hanging up. As the saying goes, you are not afraid that Western medicine will say no, but you are afraid that Chinese medicine will sigh. Doesn't this dude have any hidden diseases?
Jin Ruo's face also turned pale: "Is the person named Hua okay?"
Fang Ke raised his eyes, his ancient well-like gaze fixed on Lin Sui'an's face, and said quietly, "Thinking too much, wasting too much, leading to brain heat and body fatigue."
Lin Sui'an finally understood this sentence and quickly put the back of his hand against Hua Yitang's forehead to test the temperature. Sure enough, he had a fever due to overuse of his brain.
Jin Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, but said unforgivingly: "Is there any hope?"
Fang Ke glanced at him and said, "Such a scourge will not die for a while. Just send him back to his room and have a good sleep."
Mu Xia: "Hurry and prepare a soft frame to carry Shiro back to his room——"
"No need to bother, I'll do it." Jin Ruo squatted down and bowed, "I'll carry him back."
Everyone tried their best to lift Hua Yitang onto Jin Ruo's back, but Hua Yitang didn't know whether he was burned or something, but he refused to lie down obediently, his body was like boiled noodles, and he kept struggling. He tried several times to escape, but all ended in failure.
Lin Sui'an couldn't stand it anymore, so he pushed aside the crowd, stepped forward and hooked Hua Yitang's legs with one hand, and wrapped his other hand around Hua Yitang's back. He gently lifted him up and hugged him, "I'll send him away." .”
Mu Xia hurriedly asked people to hold lanterns to lead the way, while Ita was shouting about making tea soup to remove heat and clear the lungs. Jin Ruo was about to follow when he was grabbed by Fang Ke.
Jin Ruo: "What?"
Fang Ke: "Be careful of getting the eye of a needle."
"ha?"
The main garden where Hua Yitang lives is named "Siyuan", which means "Those who fall in love miss the trees, and those who drink the water cherish their origins." It is located in the deepest part of the courtyard, starting from Youying Water Pavilion and crossing the Furong Bridge. Walking through the Yanyue Corridor and passing through the Qiu Wu Forest, it will take nearly two-quarters of an hour for those with fast feet.
There are stone lanterns every ten steps on both sides of the road. They are carved from special stone and are about a foot tall. They look like a reduced palace lantern pavilion. They have small eaves to protect them from rain and are hollowed out on all sides. When the wick candle is lit, the whole body is clear and crystal clear. Transparent, looking from a distance, it was as if the stone lantern itself was glowing. Lin Sui'an was shocked when he saw it for the first time. He thought electricity had appeared in this era. After some research, he discovered that the stone used to make the stone lantern can guide and transmit light. , is Hua's special craftsmanship, and the price is even more expensive.
At this time, just after the Xu hour, the moon was rising, the night was still young, and the night was shrouded like mist. Lin Sui'an walked on the light to the Furong Bridge. The Furong Bridge is a sixteen-hole wooden arch bridge, which is the highest point of the inner lake of the courtyard. A bird's eye view of the inner lake in the courtyard, with the brightly lit Youying Water Pavilion behind, and the sparkling lake under the bridge. The dreamlike stone lanterns extend long into the depths of the night, as if pointing to the unknown future.
The evening breeze was slightly cool, coming slowly, and Hua Yitang's robes of snowy plum petals flew up and were illuminated by the lights.
Xia led the servants who lit the lamps and had already got off the bridge. There was no one else behind or behind him. In the quiet air, Lin Sui'an heard Hua Yitang's breathing, which changed from long to rapid, and then suddenly stopped, as if something was covering it. his mouth and nose.
Lin Sui'an lowered his eyes and took a look. Hua Yitang's eyelashes trembled violently, and the flush at the base of his ears quickly spread to his entire face like ocean waves. His Adam's apple rolled up and down in panic. Lin Sui'an burst into laughter, "You have to hold yourself back." Die?"
Hua Yitang jumped out of Lin Sui'an's arms, fluttering like a big butterfly. Fortunately, he had long hands and long legs, so he stood quite steadily when he landed. He took out his fan and fanned it quickly, holding back the sound on his forehead. A layer of shiny sweat stains.
Lin Sui'an leaned against the bridge railing, squinting at him, wondering whether he had pretended to be faint from the beginning, or whether he had woken up halfway.
"Girls are always carrying people on their backs, you, why are you hugging people -" Hua Yitang glanced at Lin Sui'an, then looked away with guilt.
Got it, this guy has been faking it from the beginning.
Lin Sui'an was helpless: "Hua Yitang, what kind of monster do you want to be?"
Hua Yitang exhaled and inhaled for a long time, finally dissipating the heat in his body. He looked around and leaned closer. As a result, he was pushed away by Lin Sui'an. "Tell me, what's going on around you?" no one."
Hua Yitang glanced at Lin Sui'an quietly and whispered, "There is a sentence in the scroll, but I didn't write it out."
Lin Sui'an was startled: "Is it related to me?"
Hua Yitang nodded and said with a solemn expression, "There is a sentence behind the star map Hanzhou: the sky is split, the star energy in the ten directions is pure and clean, and the universe is fixed. I am worthy of being the star master."
Lin Sui'an's heart skipped a beat: the bamboo slips given to her by Luo Shichuan had the four characters "Heaven is split", and the first two characters of "The star energy of the ten directions, pure Qian and Ding Kun" were connected together to form "Ten Pure". Good guy, the scope of the literature carriers about "Qian Jing" and "Ten Jing" is also too wide, from ancient books to erotic | palace | pictures, and every time it is linked to murder cases——
Lin Sui'an took off Qianjing, unsheathed the sword, and held the blade in his palm. The moonlight passed over the sharp blade, giving off a strange light like snake venom. The coldness of the blade ran along half of his arm, and he couldn't help but sigh. , laughed lightly:
"Sure enough, both the sword and the sword technique are unlucky."
Hua Yitang leaned on the bridge railing, leaning on Lin Sui'an's shoulder, slowly shaking his fan, with a faint smile in his voice, "My fate is even more unlucky. It's just right for us to get together." Fighting poison with poison will determine whether you can achieve peace of mind."
Lin Sui'an sheathed the sword, and like Hua Yitang, he also raised his head and looked at the distant night sky. Today is the first quarter moon, there are clouds, the moonlight is bright and full of cloud gaps, and the wind is blowing the clear water vapor. Wet the eyebrows and curl the eyelashes. Hua Yitang rarely became quiet, but Lin Sui'an felt that his presence had never been so strong. It was not because of the incense or the gorgeous clothes. It was hard to explain this feeling, just like a soft petal. Falling on top of the head, the wind trembled gently, and the surrounding air became different. Lin Sui'an silently experienced this wonderful feeling, thinking to himself, Hua Yitang is actually really good when he is not noisy.
Suddenly, her breath fell on her shoulders like a hot mist. Lin Sui'an's body couldn't help but tremble. She felt Hua Yitang's body temperature and weight.
This guy really fell asleep this time.
Lin Sui'an wanted to laugh inexplicably, and stayed quiet for a moment. He held Hua Yitang's head and stood up. He wanted to continue hugging the princess, but after thinking about it, in order to take care of someone's face, he changed his position and slept on his back. Hua Yitang walked forward under the moonlight.
Hua Yitang slept for two days and two nights. During this period, Fang Ke pried open his mouth and poured several bowls of medicinal soup, and Mu Xia pried open his mouth and poured several bowls of rice soup. Judging from Mu Xia's skillful movements, it was obvious that she was quite experienced. Jin If he asked out of curiosity, Mu Xia would smile and not answer, but Ita couldn't hold back his words and spilled the beans.
"When Shiro was young, he was ill for several months. Muxia was very good at giving medicine."
But when Jin Ruo asked Hua Yitang why he had been ill for several months, Yita actually remained silent. Even Lin Sui'an ignored Lin Sui'an's questioning. If he asked again, he would hit someone with his fist, so Jin Ruo had no choice but to give up.
In fact, Jin Ruo didn't have much time to stay in the other courtyard. He went out to inquire about information every day in the past two days, touching everything so big several times, but there was no trace of Yun Zhongyue. What's even more strange is that all the major aristocratic families also Extraordinarily calm, without any unusual movement.
To be honest, if any picture in the axis book is leaked, it will definitely cause an uproar. It is so quiet that it makes everyone extremely uneasy. They don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Yun Zhongyue's gourd, and the group of people who use fake Qianjing. The Jianghu forces also disappeared inexplicably.
"It's said that the storm is about to come," Jin Ruo arranged the pastries in a Dongdufang pattern on the desk, eating one piece and filling the other. "Now I seriously suspect that Yun Zhongyue is holding back something evil and plans to make a big wave. !”
Lin Sui'an looked at the gloomy sky outside the house and sighed, "Tomorrow is the day of negotiation with Dongdu Jingmen. The weather is not good."
Etta: "The pig is right, cloudy days mean bad luck."
Lin Sui'an: "..."
What she meant was that the negotiation location was on the Yunshui River and it might not be safe if it rained.
Fang Ke slowly flipped through the copy of the scroll scroll painted by Hua Yitang silently. Mu Xia re-framed these paintings into a new scroll scroll. In order to deceive others, he changed the title of the book "Shui Wen Lu". Everyone has read it Not wanting to read it a second time, Fang Ke read it happily for two days. He also asked Mu Xia to buy hundreds of volumes of similar books that were popular in Dongdu, and compared and studied them, and shared his experiences with everyone from time to time.
"This is the most popular artist's work in Dongdu this year. It has delicate brushwork, bold gestures, and quite a sense of beauty -" Fang Ke said, pointing to the seven or eight newly purchased scrolls stacked on the left corner of the desk.
Jin Ruo held his head: "Help, I don't want to see this thing anymore in my life!"
Lin Sui'an scratched his forehead, Ita frowned and boiled tea, and Mu Xia found an excuse and ran away.
"The artist's name is Chun Dan Jushi. What can you expect from this name?" Fang Ke continued, "Shan Yuanming's name is Jianjia Jushi. Isn't it similar?"
Jin Ruo: "I won't listen, I won't listen, I won't listen!"
Ita stirred the tea soup frantically.
Lin Sui'an: "..."
I can't say they are exactly the same, I can only say they have nothing to do with each other.
Fang Ke: "So I went to Shan Yuanming's room to look for a few volumes of his collection of poems, and found that the handwriting of Chundan layman and Shan Yuanming were exactly the same."
Jin Ruo: "Eh?!"
Etta dropped her teaspoon.
Lin Sui'an was stunned. He quickly checked all the possibilities in his mind and came to a very outrageous conclusion. "Could it be that Jiang Dongyi really plans to inherit this bullshit tradition of using martial arts to rejuvenate his life and make a scroll of his own?" I wanted to find a painter to record the book, and finally I chose Shan Yuanming?!"
Jin Ruo took a breath: "Could it be that the person who secretly funded Shan Yuanming is Jiang Dongyi?!"
Fang Ke: "Then it's not surprising that Shan Yuanming got this scroll. After all, for such an important family tradition, there must be a template for reference."
Jin Ruo: "Wow, that's so disgusting!"
Ita continued to stir the tea soup frantically.
Lin Sui'an still found it incomprehensible. This scroll was like a terrifying time bomb that could ruin the Jiang family and several aristocratic families in Taiyuan at any time. Jiang Dongyi could hand it over to a foreigner so easily. Or did he think Shan Yuan was innocent? Without power, he would never dare to be an enemy of the Jiang family in Taiyuan - however, Shan Yuanming hid the scroll and did not reveal its location until his death, which shows that he betrayed Jiang Dongyi - what is even more unreasonable is that Shan Yuanming hid the scroll and did not reveal the location of the scroll until his death. Yuanming offended Jiang Dongyi but didn't run away. Instead, he stayed in Dongdu and even dared to attend the Red Sleeves Adding Fragrance Banquet. Wasn't he afraid of death?
There was a muffled thunder at the junction of the mountains and the sky, moist vapor was rising in the wind, a heavy rain was approaching, and the air moisture was so stuffy that it was difficult to breathe. Lin Sui'an felt as if he had overlooked something key and had entered a dead end.
The sound of footsteps sounded outside the waterside pavilion. Mu Xia hurriedly walked in, cupping her fists and saying, "Ling Si is here."
Lin Sui'an glanced at Fang Ke, who neatly put all the scrolls on the case into his large wooden box, and hid "Water Pattern Record" in his sleeves.
Ling Zhiyan walked in hurriedly with moisture all over her body, said hello with her fists clasped, and turned to look, "Where is Hanashiro?"
"He has a fever after eating accumulated food, and he is lying on the bed." Lin Sui'an joked, "Ling Si has been here all the time, let's have a drink of tea."
Ling Zhiyan shook her head, thought for a moment, then straightened her sleeves and knelt down opposite Lin Sui'an. He was so solemn that Lin Sui'an thought something was wrong, so he knelt down straight and said firmly, "Sir Ling, tell me what you have to say."
Ling Zhiyan's expression was solemn, her brows furrowed into a knot, and she lowered her voice, "Last night, Jiang Dongyi died in the Dali Temple prison."
Lin Sui'an cursed "fuck" in his heart and asked quickly, "How did you die?"
"In Zizheng, the jailer discovered the body and conducted an autopsy. The time of death was approximately between Haizheng and Zizheng. The cause of death was -" Ling Zhiyan raised his eyes, "Slit his throat and committed suicide."
Lin Sui'an was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Fang Ke: "What is the murder weapon?"
"An inch-long dagger, a common style in the market. The source can't be traced at all." Ling Zhiyan said, "Before Jiang Dongyi was imprisoned, I personally searched him and changed all his clothes, shoes and socks, even his hair bun. After touching it, not to mention the dagger, even the blade cannot be hidden on the body. But this dagger unexpectedly appeared in Jiang Dongyi's cell inexplicably."
Lin Sui'an: "Someone brought the dagger into the cell and gave it to Jiang Dongyi?"
Ling Zhiyan: "Impossible. In order to prevent jailers from accepting bribes and hiding items into cells, jailers in Dali Temple Prison must search their bodies before going on duty."
"Perhaps the search officer was in cahoots with the jailer."
"The Minister of Dali Temple has personally checked, and there is no such possibility."
"..."
"Does Jiang Dongyi's cell have a window?" Jin Ruo suddenly asked.
Ling Zhiyan: "There is only one ventilation window, and there are iron bars blocking the outside of the wall. It is almost ten feet away from the cell. There is a tall locust tree planted between the iron bars and the cell to block the view. There are also eighteen groups of government officials outside the iron bars. Patrolling, day and night, it is basically impossible to throw something from the outside into the breathable window."
Jin Ruo snorted: "What's impossible? Pretend to be a government official and sneak into the patrol team, get under the iron fence when no one is paying attention, hide in the locust tree forest, wait until dark, go under the breathable window, and throw the dagger into the cell. .”
Ling Zhiyan thought for a while, "It is indeed possible to sneak into the government officials, but the iron bars are smooth, more than ten feet high, and there are iron thorns on the top. There is no leverage. It is no exaggeration to say that even if Mrs. Lin goes, Can’t jump either.”
Lin Sui'an: "..."
Ling Liulang also thought highly of her. She was still a normal human being governed by the gravity of the earth.
Jin Ruo: "How wide are the iron bars?"
Ling Zhiyan: "It's only four inches at its widest point. At most, a cat can fit in."
Jin Ruo rolled his eyes: "That's enough for him."
Ling Zhiyan was shocked: "Who?!"
"That Yun Zhongyue who killed a thousand swords!" Jin Ruo slapped the table, "Who else but him can have such a shameless bone-shrinking skill?!"
Ling Zhiyan was stunned for a long time, then hesitantly asked, "Isn't that just made up in the storybook?"
"There really is such a person. I only met him a few days ago," Lin Sui'an said, holding his forehead. "He can change his appearance and shrink his bones. He is simply not a human being."
Ling Zhiyan was silent for a long time and said, "To be evaluated like this by Mrs. Lin, I'm afraid she is really not a human being."
Lin Sui'an: "..."
Why does this sound so awkward?
"If it was really Yun Zhongyue who did it, then why did he induce Jiang Dongyi to commit suicide?" Ling Zhiyan frowned, "There are all witnesses and material evidence in Shan Yuanming's case, but Jiang Dongyi couldn't explain anything, and he confessed in court and was detained -"
Hearing this, Lin Sui'an suddenly felt an ominous premonition and interrupted Ling Zhiyan, "What punishment was Jiang Dongyi sentenced to?"
Ling Zhiyan was silent again, and this time the silence lasted for an extra long time. When Lin Sui'an thought he would not answer, he finally said, "Dali Temple first tried Qiu Houwen and beheaded. After review by the Ministry of Punishments, the sentence was changed to deprivation of the surname. Exiled thousands of miles away.”
Fang Ke and Jin Ruo snorted at the same time.
Lin Sui'an sighed: The premonition unfortunately came true.
Pale lightning split the dark clouds, and thunder rolled in, making people's eardrums tighten.
"A murder must be punished with a life. This is an iron law. Jiang Dongyi was able to save his life. It must have been the Taiyuan Jiang family who put pressure on the Ministry of Punishment."
Hua Yitang was wearing a snow-colored gown, slowly walked into the waterside pavilion, lifted up his clothes and sat next to Lin Sui'an. He had slept for two days, his face had become thinner, his eyes looked bigger, and his pupils became brighter. sharp,
"It's great, the surnames of the five surnames and the seven sects are actually worth a human life!":,,
