I want to promise myself!(1/4)
Yu Shengjun's expression couldn't help but become a little more solemn, "Is there something wrong?"
Tang Lin kept her eyes on the door of the tavern and said uncertainly: "I suspect that the two people who passed by us just now are Dan Hua's accomplices!"
"Dan Hua?!" This name reminded Yu Shengjun of the female assassin who was still lying in the wing of the Eighth Prince's Mansion. "Are you sure those two people just now are the accomplices of the female assassin?"
Tang Lin said: "Although I am not sure, I have to suspect that their attire is the same as the woman who was talking to Dan Hua that Chengyun and I saw in the alley that day. The woman also told Dan Hua
, it was their leader who sent the four of them to sneak into the palace to assassinate the queen!"
"Let's go!" With that said, Yu Shengjun walked towards the tavern coldly. He would not let go of anyone who was harmful to Tang Lin.
In the tavern, the shopkeeper was pouring tea for two women. The two women were wearing the same clothes, the same bamboo hats, and the same color.
"Guests, please have a cup of tea first. The side dishes will be served shortly." After pouring the tea, the store owner said something. He wanted to go back and prepare the meal, but when he saw that the guest who had left first came back, he greeted him with a smile, "
You two guests, didn’t you leave earlier?”
Tang Lin said sarcastically: "I was still sleepy before, maybe because I drank tea. This time I couldn't sleep when I went home to rest, so I just came back and had a bowl of warm wine before leaving."
The shopkeeper understood and said, "So that's what happened. Those two guests, please sit down. I will go and serve you two hot pots and small drinks."
"Trouble!"
"You're welcome, that's right!" After saying that, the store owner left.
Tang Lin and Yu Shengjun looked at each other and then sat down together. Their table was the closest to the table of the two women.
Perhaps out of the killer's instinct, once someone approaches, he will immediately be on guard. One of the women glanced to the side, originally wanting to see if the Jianghu man was sitting next to him, but unexpectedly it was the Royal Saint Lord.
When the appearance came into his eyes, he was inexplicably stunned.
The same is true for another woman.
Tang Lin secretly discovered that the two women were frightened by Yu Shengjun's appearance, and thought, why not take advantage of Yu Shengjun to investigate these two women.
When the store brought a cup of warm wine, the two women looked away from Yu Shengjun.
After putting down Tang Lin's and others' drinks, the store owner said to the two women: "Two guests, please wait a moment. The side dishes will be served shortly!"
One of the women said in a more friendly manner: "There's no rush, we'll just wait."
"Thank you sir for your understanding."
After the store owner left, Tang Lin poured wine and touched Yu Shengjun's feet with her feet, signaling him to do something.
Yu Shengjun understood and took the wine bowl she poured the wine into and brought it to his lips. Just when he was about to drink, Tang Lin suddenly tugged on his clothes hard and said, "Hey, I poured this wine for myself.
If you want to drink, pour it yourself and give it back to me."
With Tang Lin making a fuss, Yu Shengjun took the opportunity to move the wine bowl to the side and got very close to one of the women. He shouted at Tang Lin, "No!"
Tang Lin rushed over and said, "Give it to me!"
Yu Shengjun's body tilted, and the wine bowl in his hand also tilted. Then, the wine in the wine bowl flowed down the woman's neck.
Seeing this, Tang Lin took a breath of air, opened her eyes wide and bit her fingers, "Oh no..."
"What's wrong?" Yu Shengjun asked, pretending not to know, and then followed Tang Lin's gaze to the woman beside him. He saw that the woman had stood up and was slapping the drink off her chest.
The wine still stained the gauze layer of the hat, so the woman took off the hat and wiped the wine off her neck with her clean sleeves.
Tang Lin took another breath, what a beautiful woman, with snowy skin, fair skin and rosy skin, and mature facial features.
"Girl, I'm sorry," Yu Shengjun stood up and faced the woman. He wanted to reach out to help the woman wipe off the drink on her body, but he stretched his hand in mid-air and did not dare to send it over again.
The woman quickly smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, the young master didn't mean it."
Another woman had brought a clean cloth from the corner and gave it to the woman, "Ruqi, use this to wipe it."
Ruqi... Tang Lin secretly remembered this name.
"Hey, what's going on?" The store owner brought the food. Seeing that the four of them had stood up, he hurriedly brought the food over and asked.
Ruqi's accomplice said to the store: "Store, my sister was accidentally spilled by the drink. Can you let me go freshen up?"
Without saying a word, the store owner pointed to the inner room and said, "Go in here and turn right out. There is the backyard with water."
Without saying anything, he walked towards the inner room with a quick step like a chess piece.
The store owner put down the food and left.
Tang Lin poured another bowl of wine, then gave it to Yu Shengjun and gave him a meaningful look.
Yu Shengjun understood, picked up the wine bowl, and walked towards the woman, "Girl!" After standing in front of the woman, he apologized: "I accidentally spilled the wine on your sister. I'm sorry, I drank this bowl.
Drinking wine can be regarded as an apology, okay?"
"Young master, don't take this matter to your heart. My sisters will not blame you." The woman said more gently.
"Thank you two girls!" After saying that, Yu Shengjun drank all the wine, then tipped the wine bowl down, indicating to the woman that he had drank and apologized.
"Girl," Tang Lin asked pretending to be concerned, "it's already midnight, it's cold and unsafe outside, why do you two sisters go out to eat late at night? Are you having a minor conflict with your family?"
Originally, Kun had no reason to be perfunctory, but when she heard Tang Lin's last words, the woman no longer worried that there was no reason to explain. She pretended to be sad and said: "Hey, every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. We are not afraid of girls' jokes. We sisters
The two... ran away from home."
Tang Lin asked: "Why?" Let's see how you continue to make it up.
Afraid that her explanation would make Tang Lin suspicious if she explained too late, the woman frantically tried to think of a reason. When she thought of it, she immediately said: "My mother... passed away a month ago. Before my mother's body was cold, my father married my stepmother and she came back. She made excuses."
My father kicked us sisters out of the house late at night!"
Tang Lin pretended to sympathize, "What you two sisters are going through is so pitiful. Your father is really the same. How could he listen to your stepmother?"
The woman who had gone to wash up came out. She just wiped her clothes with water and didn't tidy herself up too much.
"This young man has already apologized," the woman said to Ruqi.
Ruqi immediately looked at Yu Shengjun. Once he met Yu Shengjun's deep gaze, he lowered his eyes nervously and said, "Young Master, this is not your fault. You don't need to apologize."
Tang Lin said: "This is our fault and we should apologize. You two girls, since you are temporarily homeless... How about staying in our house for a day or two? I believe that no father in the world is willing to
Abandon your child, and when he realizes that you are missing, he will definitely come out to look for you. Then, how about you go home with your father?"
"Huh?" Ruqi frowned. Why did she become a runaway after seeing her for a while? The accomplice secretly tugged at her clothes, and she immediately smiled and said yes. "Thank you, girl, for taking us sisters in. I'm very grateful.
By the way, girl, you and this young man..."
Tang Lin took Yu Shengjun's arm and said proudly: "This is my husband."
When Ruqi and her accomplices heard the word 'Mr. Xian Gong', the passion in their eyes instantly dimmed, and there was a hint of surprise, anger and unwillingness, but it was not revealed.
Ruqi smiled awkwardly, "Earlier, I thought you were brother and sister."
Tang Lin said: "My surname is Tang, and my husband's surname is Yu. I am so melancholy that I don't know how to call the two girls."
After the two exchanged glances, Ruqi said: "I am Ru... Ruqi, and my sister is Xiaoshu. I won't bother you two tonight."
Tang Lin thought, there is a chess piece, a book, and a painting. The name of the last female killer must have a poem in it, and she was named after the chess, calligraphy and painting.
After leaving the tavern, Yushengjun and Tang Lin took Ruqi Xiaoshu and the two to the Prince Consort's Mansion.
When they arrived at the gate of the Prince Consort's Mansion, Ruqi and Xiaoshu stopped. If they were not blind, how could they not clearly see what was written on the huge plaque above their heads.
"You..." Ruqi looked at Tang Lin and the others in astonishment, "You live in the Prince Consort's Mansion? Then don't you..."
Tang Lin immediately explained: "Girl, you misunderstood. My husband-in-law and I are not the princess and the prince-in-law. We are from Chucheng. My husband-in-law is the prince-son-in-law's subordinate. We came to the new capital with the princess and the prince-son-in-law."
Met the princess and the consort?
Ruqi and Xiaoshu exchanged glances, and then Ruqi asked Tang Lin worriedly: "Girl, this is the Prince Consort's Mansion. Is it okay for us two sisters to live in it?"
Tang Lin smiled and said: "What's wrong? We are very familiar with the princess and the consort, and we are like their good brothers and sisters. Just stay here with peace of mind, they won't say anything."
Ruqi and Xiaoshu looked at each other and said to Tang Lin, "Then... okay."
The servants at the door did not stop Tang Lin and the others, and they entered the Prince Consort's Mansion smoothly.
After entering the door, Tang Lin said to Yu Shengjun: "My husband, I will take the two girls to the wing. You go and tell the princess and the consort about their affairs. If the princess and the consort slept, wait until tomorrow to report the matter.
Bar."
Yu Shengjun nodded, said nothing, and walked inside.
After a while, Tang Lin brought Ruqi and Xiaoshu to the door of a wing in the west courtyard, "You two girls, this is your room. Although there are many rooms in the Prince Consort's Mansion, they are all occupied, so I'd like to trouble you two sisters."
Give it a squeeze.”
Ruqi said: "We are extremely grateful to you for taking us two sisters in, so why would you object to sharing a room together?"
"Well, then you can stay in peace, I'll go first."
"Girl." Ruqi called to Tang Lin who was leaving.
Tang Lin asked: "Is there anything else, girl?"
Ruqi hesitated for a moment and then asked cautiously: "The princess and the prince-in-law... do they also live in the west courtyard? Don't get me wrong, girl, we have no other intention. We are just afraid that we are of low status but live in the same courtyard as the princess and the prince-son-in-law."
…”
How could Tang Lin not understand the meaning behind Ruqi's words? They were inquiring about where the princess and the prince-in-law lived in order to achieve their goals.
Although she saw the trick of Ruqi and the others, Tang Lin did not lie, but really revealed the residence of the princess and the prince-in-law, "Don't worry, girl, the princess and the prince-in-law don't live here, they live in the east courtyard."
