"Ouyang Changshi likes to eat breakfast here?"

"A regular customer."

"Do regular customers come here to eat often?"

"almost."

Ouyang Rong actually wanted to say that it was Rong Zhen who often bought sesame cakes from this restaurant, but he actually didn't come often.

But of course you can't say that in front of the new Xia Guan Lingtai Lang.

Lin Cheng put down the bowl.

"Does Ouyang Changshi often come to the Supervisory Yuan to look for Rong Zhennvshi?"

Ouyang Rong nodded.

"Yeah. In the past it was because of the case of the owner of Die Lianhua, and recently it was the matter of Donglin Giant Buddha. I come here often."

"I see."

Lin Cheng smiled:

"This is my first time here. Ouyang Changshi is not allowed to treat old and familiar guests?"

Ouyang Rong spread his hands: "I don't have any money."

After a pause, he sighed again:

"Besides, Brother Lin is coming from Luoyang, but the imperial envoy is special. If I pay for a treat, wouldn't I be bribing the imperial envoy? This can't be done. Well, it's better for Brother Lin to treat me."

At this time, the breakfast stall owner brought spicy soup and sesame pancakes.

Ouyang Rong took out an empty bowl, poured it over with one hand, divided half of it, pushed it in front of Lin Cheng, and spread his hands to signal for tasting.

Lin Cheng finished drinking the spicy soup, wiped his mouth, waved his fingers, and said slowly:

"Chapter 21 of Chapter 8 of Zhou Lushu's Commentary states that gifts worth less than 100 yuan are not considered bribes, so it is better for Ouyang Changshi to show his loyalty to the landlord.

"Besides, isn't Ouyang Changshi's carriage nearby? I can wait for Ouyang Changshi to collect the money."

"Brother the coachman is poorer than me, so why are you so embarrassed to ask him for it? Forget it, next time.

"But Brother Lin is quite familiar with the law."

Ouyang Rong said cheekily.

Lin Cheng thought for a while, nodded, and made suggestions:

"Then before I leave, Ouyang Changshi has to treat me to a meal and bring it back."

"Brother Lin really doesn't suffer at all."

"We, the Yin Yang family Qi practitioners, pay attention to the balance of Yin and Yang. The same goes for entertaining guests."

"That makes sense. Okay, before I leave next time, I'll give you a treat."

The two of them talked to each other and settled on the matter of paying for the meal.

"Ouyang Changshi came to see Rong Zhennvshi?"

"Um."

"Let's go, I happen to be doing the same."

Lin Cheng stood up, paid the money, and walked into the Supervisory Yuan with Ouyang Rong.

Soon I saw Rong Zhen in the lobby.

The cold girl in palace clothes was sitting on a chair, looking down at a letter in her hand.

There is a familiar green bamboo stick on the table next to it.

Rong Zhen's injury has healed now and he hasn't used it for a long time.

Sensing the arrival of Ouyang Rong and Lin Cheng, Rong Zhen folded the letter and quickly stuffed it into his sleeve without saying anything, looking at the two of them with his eyes.

"Rong Zhen's daughter Shi Chen'an." Lin Cheng smiled.

Rong Zhen nodded, but his eyes fell on Ouyang Rong behind him who was wearing a lotus white sachet.

Ouyang Rong said: "Have you eaten, Rong Nu Shi? I just had some breakfast with Brother Lin outside..."

Rong Zhen said expressionlessly:

"You can eat as long as you want. There is no need to report to me. Don't talk about irrelevant topics in the morning. This is not a restaurant."

Ouyang Rong choked immediately.

I was originally worried that she would not be able to eat the sesame cakes she helped buy again, but now judging from her face and tone... she probably had nothing left.

"That letter just now, does Rong Zhennv Shi have something urgent?"

Lin Cheng asked curiously.

Rong Zhen shook his head: "No, Lin Cheng, let's talk about business."

"good."

Lin Cheng nodded and looked at Ouyang Rong hesitantly.

But seeing that Rong Zhen didn't respond, he didn't say anything and said slowly:

"This time, in addition to accompanying Hu Zhong on his trip to Xunyang and inspecting the Donglin Giant Buddha, I was also given a task in the prison to assist Rong Zhennvshi in investigating the owner of the Dielianhua that you reported back.

"This is a strange sword holder who has never been recorded in the books for more than ten years before. The tripod sword he uses is also very strange and novel. Da Siming is very interested in this person..."

His expression was serious.

Rong Zhen nodded:

"If you think about it carefully, it is very strange for a sword holder to act alone."

Ouyang Rong sat aside, drinking tea honestly and listening silently.

"Rong Zhennv Shi, what does that sword look like?" Lin Cheng asked proactively.

Rong Zhen frowned:

"It looks like a crescent moon but not a crescent moon. It looks like a scimitar but not a scimitar. It is more like a sharp arc formed by bending a thin sword. It flies in the air and kills people like hemp. Taking a person's head is like picking something out of a bag..."

As she spoke, she slowly closed her eyes, as if she was remembering something:

"It is known that the magical power he has mastered should be the legendary [Han Shi]'s magical power of the tripod sword, come back.

"When I set up the formation, I also specifically targeted this point... But now it seems that he probably also mastered at least one other magical power of the tripod sword to break the formation, and this magical power of the tripod sword is weird..."

Lin Cheng said thoughtfully:

"Could it be a new tripod sword..."

Everyone chatted for a while, mainly about the causes and consequences of the accident in the old courtyard.

Lin Cheng also asked Ouyang Rong what it was like when he first met the owner of Dielianhua outside the yard.

Ouyang Rong told it roughly, the same as what he said in front of Rong Zhen.

Immediately, Lin Cheng suddenly proposed to go check out the ruins of the old courtyard.

Ouyang Rong, Rong Zhen is incomparable.

The three of them went out and left the Supervisory Yuan, and soon arrived at Huang Xuan's original residence in Xingzifang.

The old courtyard is now in ruins.

Lin Cheng walked into the hospital first.

Ouyang Rong and Rong Zhen fell behind and walked side by side.

Ouyang Rong looked at the back of Lin Cheng looking around in front of him, and asked curiously in a low voice:

"Brother Lin seems to be quite interested."

Rong Zhen's eyes don't squint.

Didn't answer at first.

From the moment they met in the morning, Rong Zhen had an indifferent attitude, as if he was not familiar with Ouyang Rong at all.

At this moment, under Ouyang Rong's gaze, she pursed her lips:

"This Xia Guan Lingtai Lang used to solve many cases in Luoyang and cooperated with Dali Temple. He is very meticulous and can be regarded as one of the most experienced criminal investigation masters in Si Tianjian... This time, the deputy superintendent and the chief minister sent him

Come here, you should also be interested in assisting in the investigation."

"Why do you think Rong Nu Shi's face looks unhappy?"

"Do you care about this?"

"No."

"Then stop asking."

"good."

Not long after, Lin Cheng returned, and Ouyang Rong and Rong Zhen's whisper was interrupted.

"Lin Cheng, what did you find?" Rong Zhen asked.

"It has been too long and some traces have faded, making it difficult to find." Lin Cheng sighed.

Rong Zhen didn't look too disappointed, as if he had expected it and didn't have high hopes.

"Are there any other specific details?" Lin Cheng asked again.

She nodded slightly, raised her chin and gestured to Ouyang Rong:
To be continued...
