"Squeak! Squeak!" The rope rotated on the wooden plate and made a friction sound, making the hanging basket move slowly.

"Lu Shaoyun, where are you going to take us?" The impatient An Dafang couldn't help but ask when he saw that the hanging basket was falling slowly.

"Of course I want to go to a quiet place without being disturbed by people." After Lu Shaoyun said that, he turned around and faced the mountain wall, no longer paying attention to An Dafang.

"Why are you so anxious, Da Fang? Wouldn't it be nice to have a few bottles of fine wine with such a beautiful view?" Tong Bo saw that An Da Fang couldn't control his temper, so he could only persuade him with words.

"Boom!" After half a cup of tea, the hanging basket suddenly stopped in mid-air, and the eyes of several people suddenly became clear.

The clouds and mist dissipated, and two towering pines stood at the entrance, as if welcoming everyone's arrival. Four young men in brown clothes waited for several people to step off the hanging basket, and firmly fixed the turntable.

"Welcome, Mr. Lu." Two young girls in chest-length skirts bowed to Lu Shaoyun.

"Well! Are you all ready?" Lu Shaoyun seemed to be very familiar with and enjoyed everything here, smiling softly.

"It's been prepared, just waiting for Mr. Lu!" the two girls said in unison, and their voices were enough to fascinate the man.

"Guys, please come down with me." Lu Shaoyun said, waving to the two girls: "We have guests visiting today, you should know what to do, right?"

"My slave understands." The two girls bowed and retreated. They behaved elegantly and defensively, and their words were few but appropriate. It was obvious that they had undergone long-term training.

"Pfft!" Liu Ningshi couldn't help but laugh after looking at the scenery here: "The courtyard is located in a quiet environment, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard are also fragrant. It would be better if there are a few thatched houses; but here However, the owner renovated the main house with gold bricks and blue tiles, which is extremely luxurious, but it is incompatible with the beautiful scenery in the courtyard."

"This is the embodiment of doing whatever you want." Lu Shaoyun was not angry after hearing Liu Ningshi's evaluation: "Young master Liu, I heard that money can make all the trouble. As long as you have enough money, you can do things according to your own wishes, whatever you like. That’s it!”

"So, this is Mr. Lu's property?" Tong Bo listened obediently, his thoughts turned quickly, and he immediately asked about Lu Shaoyun's seven inches.

"It's not my property, but this place was renovated with money from me and two friends." Lu Shaoyun seemed to be prepared and smiled calmly.

"Oh? Then Master Lu is really a generous person?" Tong Bo looked at the luxurious house in front of him and sighed: "I wonder who is so lucky to receive gifts from Master Lu?"

"Compared with such inconsequential issues, shouldn't you be more concerned about the affairs in Jifang Pavilion?" Lu Shaoyun said with a smile.

"Yes! Xiangyun, please stop asking these useless questions." An Dafang, who was listening to the conversation of several people, had long been impatient, and finally waited for the opportunity to interrupt Tong Bo's question.

"Guys, please talk inside the room." Lu Shaoyun left first, followed closely by Liu Ningshi, Tong Bo and others.

The exterior of the house is made of gold bricks and green tiles, but the inner hall is made of fine wood; the floor of red pine, the racks of yellow pear, and the rest of the tables and chairs are all made of rosewood, which is extremely luxurious.

"Hai Shi has arrived, everyone must be hungry, right?" Lu Shaoyun lifted up his gown and knelt down on the main seat: "How about we have some supper together and chat while eating?"

"Is it already Haishi?" Liu Ningshi asked in surprise: "But it looks like Shenshi outside?"

"This is due to the climate in the mountains. If Mr. Liu returns to the pavilion at this time, I am afraid he will have to light lanterns." Lu Shaoyun explained while waving to several girls in underskirts who were already waiting in the room.

Following Lu Shaoyun's instructions, several red-glazed porcelain plates were placed in front of several people's desks, with red dates, candied fruits, raisins, sour plums and other fruits placed on them. Then the girls who came in one after another placed plates of exquisite Delicious dishes are placed one after another.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Master Lu really knows how to enjoy it?" Tong Bo looked at the red and white glazed porcelain plates on his table and couldn't help but sigh: "Master Qian is really good at eating, but compared to you, he is really nothing." !”

Although Liu Ningshi didn't say anything, she agreed with Tong Bo's words in her heart. Zhongshu Mansion was also considered a wealthy and wealthy manor, but Liu Yuanzhi had always been frugal, eating only three vegetables and one meat dish every day, and he always shared the same table with his sisters. As for food, it has never been like Lu Shaoyun who spent dozens of nights alone.

night.

"What's the point of having good food but no good wine?" Food has never been attractive to a drunkard like An Dafang.

"What Da Fang said is good." Tong Bo's heart moved, and he took out a few gray wine bottles from the Qianzhuang wine cellar, and said with a smile: "Young Master Lu entertains you like this, why don't you just leave this wine to me?" Let’s borrow flowers to offer to Buddha!”

"Huh? This is?" The girl in a skirt who was kneeling behind Lu Shaoyun was very discerning. As soon as Tong Bo finished speaking, he stood up, took the wine bottle and put it in front of him.

"This is the century-old Jimo wine from Ziyan Qianzhuang. Is it possible that Mr. Lu has never drank it?" Tong Bo understood the preciousness of this wine when he saw Lu Shaoyun holding the wine pot and being stunned.

"This century-old Jimo wine is indeed a treasure among wines, but it can barely reach my eyes!" Lu Shaoyun looked proud.

"Xiangyun, you won't refuse to drink this time, right?" An Dafang heard that there was still a hundred years of Jimo, and he couldn't wait to fill his wine bottle with wine.

"Is this friend just trying to persuade me to drink and want to stay out of it?" An Dafang's words made Lu Shaoyun frown and stare at Tong Bo.

"What do you think Mr. Lu said, wouldn't it be a pity not to drink such a fine wine?" An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Tong Bo's mouth, and he stretched out his hand to Liu Ningshi beside him: "If there are some petals added to the fine wine, wouldn't it be a pity?" Isn’t it more interesting?”

"Brother Xiangyun, you will be disappointed too!" Liu Ningshi raised her eyebrows lightly, and with a smile, she took out four petals from the purse at her waist and placed them in Tong Bo's palm.

"Master Liu, please stop making fun of me!" Tong Bo felt a little helpless every time Liu Ningshi was criticized, and smiled and said: "Master Lu, do you want to take a few slices too?"

"Interesting! Ever since I saw Brother An drinking petal wine in Jifang Pavilion, I regretted not having a taste of it myself; I never thought that God was so kind to me and gave me another chance." Lu Shaoyun looked at Tong Bo with interest. Scatter the petals into the pot one by one: "Master Liu, can you also give me a few cherry blossom petals?"

"Sakura petals?" Liu Ningshi was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Where do I have cherry blossom petals?"

"Is this what Mr. Lu is talking about?" Tong Bo spread out his palms, and the remaining petals were in his palms: "But these are not cherry blossom petals, but peach blossom petals specially made by Mr. Liu."

"That's it!" Lu Shaoyun shook his head in embarrassment. In these years, all his thoughts were spent on how to do business, and he couldn't even tell the difference between peach petals and cherry blossom petals.

"Master Lu, what did you mean when you said that Da Fang drank wine soaked in cherry blossom petals in Jifang Pavilion?" Tong Bo and Liu Ningshi looked at each other and asked their doubts: "Da Fang, you too Do you like drinking petal wine?"

"I'm also very surprised when did I drink petal wine?" An Dafang shook his head in confusion: "Lu, please speak clearly."

"Hey!" Lu Shaoyun sighed helplessly: "Brother An, when I was drinking with the others, I clearly saw several cherry blossoms falling from your wine cup. How could you say you didn't drink it?"

"That's right!" Tong Bo thought about the situation in Jifang Pavilion and thought to himself: "The cherry blossom petals there are fluttering in the wind all year round to prevent such a rough man from drinking the petal wine without knowing it. It is extremely possible of!"

"Brother Xiangyun, do you doubt that adding cherry blossom petals to Jimo wine will have other effects?" Liu Ningshi saw Tong Bo staring blankly at the peach petals in his palm and asked quietly through a voice transmission.

"If you have anything to say, why don't we talk about it over a drink first." Tong Bo filled his wine bottle with wine and changed the topic at the right time, but secretly nodded to Liu Ningshi.

"Yes! Yes!" An Dafang smelled the mellow aroma in the wine bottle and couldn't help it for a long time: "Come on, let's do it."

Although the peach petals diluted the spiciness of Jimo wine a lot, Tong Bo still frowned after taking a sip, while An Dafang made a sound of satisfaction.

"I wonder if any of you have anything you want to ask?" Lu Shaoyun was gentle and polite, covering the wine master with his long sleeves and took a sip of wine, then picked up a candied fruit and put it into his mouth.

"I wonder if Mr. Lu knows that the prince in white has died in the sea of ​​flowers?" Tong Bo not only didn't ask anything, but told Lu Shaoyun about the death of the prince in white.

"Dead? Impossible!" Lu Shaoyun's expression changed and the chopsticks in his hands fell down: "Are you joking with me?"

"Look, he doesn't look like he's pretending." Tong Bo also put a candied fruit into his mouth and said with a smile: "Master Lu, please give me some advice on the origin of Mr. Wang!"

"This prince's name is Wang Junchen, and he is the fourth son of Mr. Wang Qingzhi, the Minister of Industry of Jinling City." Lu Shaoyun's expression gradually became serious: "He usually comes to Ziyan Pavilion to do business."

"The fourth son of the Minister of Industry?" Liu Ningshi also followed Liu Yuanzhi to Wang Qingzhi's residence, but had never seen Wang Junchen before, so she couldn't help but wonder: "That should be a clan of scholars, how come they are also doing business?"

"Young Master Liu doesn't know something." Lu Shaoyun learned about the death of Young Master in White and seemed a little upset: "Wang Junchen didn't like reading or practicing martial arts since he was a child. He was a playboy, but for some reason he was very fond of Shang Zhidao. With talent, Lord Wang sighed and raised enough capital for him to start business."

"Hehe! With Mr. Wang as his great backer and his talent in business, business must be very prosperous these years." Tong Bo said with a smile.

"Your Excellency is right!" When Lu Shaoyun said this, he showed a very strange look in his eyes. He couldn't tell whether it was envy or jealousy: "Wang Junchen's business has been getting bigger and bigger in recent years, otherwise how could he get this opportunity to enter Ziyan Pavilion?" I can still have the opportunity..."

"Do you have business dealings with Mr. Lu?" Tong Bo guessed what Lu Shaoyun wanted to say without waiting for him to finish.

"That's right!" Lu Shaoyun admitted Tong Bo's conjecture generously: "Now that Wang Junchen has died in Ziyan Pavilion, how could his father Wang Qingzhi let it go if he knew about it?"

"So we have to find the murderer and give him an explanation." Liu Ningshi asked, "Young Master Lu and Brother Da Fang entered Jifang Pavilion to drink together. Why did they leave first?"

"After Miss Qingli received the letter from Fei Ge, she said goodbye and left." Lu Shaoyun picked up the wine master and took another sip of wine, and said with a smile: "As for me, I came to the birdhouse because I wanted to gamble."

"Oh? So, Miss Wen was still in the pavilion when Mr. Lu left?" Tong Bo caught the loophole in Lu Shaoyun's words and asked: "Then why did you just say that Miss Wen left on her own?"

"That's because I didn't go far before I heard Miss Wen's scream?" Lu Shaoyun explained unhurriedly: "So I turned back."
