The silver lamp complies with the promise, and the fragrance is lost in the six-melody screen.
The quiet sound of pipa from the high platform below the hall swept into the quiet and luxurious Xiang Pavilion. Although it did not crack rocks and penetrate clouds, it also attracted businessmen to carve feathers.
In the Xiangge box, Li Nanke and Leng Xinnan were sitting at the table.
Waiting for the arrival of thousands of butterflies.
Compared with Li Nanke's calmness, Leng Xinnan felt uncomfortable all over.
Although I have been to the place of fireworks in the past when handling cases, I was accompanied by several subordinates. This is the first time I have been to such a place alone with a man.
"You used to visit brothels?"
The girl is suspicious.
Li Nanke smiled and said: "Do you think it's possible, sir? My wife is not something you can fool easily."
"But you don't seem nervous?"
Leng Meiren said.
Li Nanke was very puzzled: "Why should I be nervous? I'm just here to investigate the case, not for fun."
Looking at the man's calm and innocent eyes, Leng Xinnan realized that she seemed to have overestimated things, her cheeks became slightly warm, and she apologized for her previous doubts.
This also made her understand more clearly that Li Nanke was really different from most men.
He is handsome, capable, and dedicated, and he is not tempted by worldly beauty.
Inexplicably, she was a little envious of Luo Qianqiu.
Of course it's just envy.
No other ideas.
At this time, Leng Xinnan's mind flashed to the scene where the other party saved her in the Lin Mansion that morning. Her beautiful eyes were in a trance, her lips were half-opened, and she whispered softly: "Thank you for saving me."
"What?"
Li Nanke was thinking about his next question to Wan Butterfly when he heard the cold female boss suddenly say this, and was a little confused for a moment.
But then he came to his senses and said calmly: "Actually, we just happened to help each other."
The man's words fell on Leng Xinnan's ears, but they turned into modesty, and his inner favorability value increased from two-fifths of Meng Xiaotu to three-fifths of Meng Xiaotu.
The girl raised her hand to straighten the hair around her temples, and said in a gentle tone: "In order to save me this time, your magic weapon was severely damaged. When I return to Yuncheng, I will find some spiritual stones to see if they can be restored, or maybe I can
I will find another magic weapon and give it to you."
Loss of magic weapon?
Li Nanke's eyebrows moved.
He hadn't thought about this issue at all.
After all, he didn't know whether the magic weapon obtained from Hongyu's dream would suffer the same wear and tear as the magic weapon in reality.
But judging from the feeling in the morning, it seems that there is no loss.
While he was deep in thought, the box door was suddenly pushed open, and a voluptuous woman walked in.
It is Wan Butterfly who is known as the 'Little Prime Minister'.
"Hey, this is a rare visitor."
Looking at Li Nanke's handsome face, thousands of butterflies in his eyes seemed to be filled with peach blossoms. "No wonder the sisters below said that a literary star has come today, and he is full of treasures. They all want you to teach and receive karma.
"
What Wan Butterfly said is not an exaggeration.
When Li Nanke entered Xianghua Tower just now, it was a grand occasion.
A pair of spring-filled eyes wanted to get into his clothes, as if they could see Tang Monk's flesh.
Everyone is scrambling to hook up.
If Leng Xinnan hadn't taken out the night patrol department's token and put it on his waist, Li Nanke might have even had gouache on the soles of his feet when he came out of Xianghua Tower.
"Sister Wan is joking, I'm here today for official business."
Li Nanke pointed to Leng Xinnan next to him. "This is Mr. Leng from the Night Patrol Department. I'm just assisting her in handling the case."
"Hello, Mr. Leng."
In front of Leng Xinnan, Wan Die didn't dare to make any mistakes and bowed respectfully.
Looking at this female official's stunning appearance, natural and graceful figure, and her slender waist that doesn't require a belt, just a hand, I can't help but admire God's blessing.
This one-in-a-million beauty is something that no one will ever meet in their lifetime.
I don’t know which man will get the advantage.
Although Leng Xinnan had no dislike or disgust for this kind of woman, it was difficult for him to have much favorable impressions. He just gave a cold "hmm" and stopped making any sound.
"Sister Wan, let's get straight to the point."
Li Nanke picked up the teapot, filled the woman with tea, and asked, "Mei Xing'er is familiar to you, right?"
"Mei Xing'er?"
Wan Die's eyes were strange. "I didn't expect Brother Li's taste to be like this."
Li Nanke smiled and did not answer.
Cao thief?
Who doesn’t want to be a thief?
Wan Butterfly chuckled, stopped teasing her, and said softly: "Who in Dongqi County doesn't know Mei Xing'er? She was the real number one in our Xianghua House back then."
"What kind of person do you think she is?"
Li Nanke asked.
Wan Die held up the tea cup with her orchid fingers and said charmingly: "Not bad, the slave family knows her relatively well. Back then, the slave family was just a little maid serving tea and water. She didn't have any airs and took good care of me."
"How did she meet Lin Yuanwai?"
"How else can we meet people in our line of work?"
Wan Butterfly rolled her eyes. "It's just that the forest member came to the Xianghua Building to have fun and fell in love with Mei Xing'er. In addition, Mei Xing'er really served me well, so she was redeemed."
"It seems that Mei Xing'er is quite scheming."
Li Nanke tasted it.
To make a wealthy businessman willing to spend a lot of money to redeem his family and become his wife, in addition to having outstanding beauty and bed skills, she must also fully understand a man's mind.
Learn how to make a man spend 100,000 for you in just three sentences.
Wan Butterfly gave him an approving look and said lazily: "Means are one thing, and people's lives are indeed good.
I remember that Myolie Mei once had a sweetheart. We don’t know who she was, but she often had secret meetings with her, which often made the madam angry.
But she knew how to make money, so the old madam just turned a blind eye. Later, Mei Xing'er was very happy and told us that she would soon fly up a branch and become a phoenix.
Unexpectedly, the good times did not last long, and she became depressed again. It seemed that she had been dumped by her sweetheart.
Later, Mei Xing'er married Lin Yuanwai, and she fulfilled what she said before, flying up a branch and becoming a phoenix. Do you think this life is good? It makes my sisters envious."
Wan Butterfly also made no secret of his jealousy and envy.
No woman who lives in a place like this doesn't want to find a good home.
"lover……"
Li Nanke tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
He took out a pen and paper and wrote a few words on it, and then asked: "Sister Wan, have you heard any gossip about the Lin family recently, that is, rumors or something like that."
"Brother Li is really good at finding places."
Thousands of butterflies smile and express their meaning.
Li Nanke smiled slightly: "After all, there are more secrets hidden in this kind of place than there are stars in the sky. I'm afraid sometimes the intelligence function of the imperial shadow guards is not as good as the secrets you can tell on your pillow."
"Oh, is this a compliment or a derogation?"
Wan Butterfly pretends to be unhappy.
Li Nanke quickly said: "Of course it's a boast."
Wan Butterfly burst out laughing, glanced at Leng Xinnan, who had remained silent, and then said slowly: "As for the gossip of the Lin family, the only thing that happened was the little princess incident a month ago."
Little princess?
Li Nanke and Leng Xinnan looked at each other.
Wan Butterfly took a sip of tea and said slowly: "A month ago, Prince Anping's youngest son was out playing and came to Dongqi County, where he met the eldest daughter of the Lin family.
This dandy young prince fell in love with the eldest daughter of the Lin family at first sight. He was attached to her like a dog-skin plaster and pursued her crazily. He also clamored to marry her as his princess, and even made a promise in front of the Lin Mansion that he would not marry her.
oath."
"Don't you love Bai?"
Leng Xinnan couldn't help but frown slightly.
"What's not to love?"
Seeing Li Nanke's confused expression, Leng Xinnan patiently explained.
It turns out that the current Supreme Emperor Bai Yaoquan also had an older brother named Bai Yaoming, who was the King of Anping.
In his early years, this prince also followed Tianwu Emperor Bai Yaoquan on his campaigns in the north and south, and made great contributions.
As the political power and the country's situation gradually stabilized, in order to prevent the suspicion of Emperor Tianwu and the secret instigation of others from causing disputes to recur, the prince voluntarily gave up his power and lived in pleasure in his palace.
After Emperor Tianwu showed strange symptoms of fainting, many people hoped that King Anping could take over.
But the prince never paid attention to it.
When it's time to eat, when it's time to play, when it's time to sleep, you don't have to worry about court matters.
There are also countless wives and concubines at home.
But rumors are inevitable, especially after the young emperor ascended the throne, there were rumors that Bai Yaoming would rebel.
And this little prince named "Bai Buai" was born to a maid of King Anping after he was drunk, so he didn't have much status in the family.
After the death of his mother, he became completely free-range and wandered around the land of fireworks all day long.
Gradually, he developed a wilder temperament.
A typical playboy.
In fact, at first, the young prince was not called this name, but was called "Bai Yangyan". But when he grew up, the young prince felt that this name was not unique enough, so he changed his name to "Bai Buai".
Even during banquets, he said: The women in this world are just having fun and are not worthy of love.
Only when you get something but don't love it can you become a saint of love.
However, some people speculate that the young prince may have chosen this name to mock himself for not having the love of his parents since he was a child. But only he knows the truth.
King Anping didn't bother to pay attention to his son's name change.
"I didn't expect this to happen."
The thick fog entrenched in Li Nanke's mind seemed to clear up a bit, and he continued to ask Wan Die: "What happens next?"
"after?"
Wan Butterfly said with a smile. "After that, the young prince returned to Beijing, saying that he would first convince his father, and then come to marry Miss Lin, so that the Lin family would wait for the good news."
Leng Xinnan shook his head helplessly: "No wonder Lin Yuanwai is so afraid that his daughter's reputation will be damaged. I understand. But Bai doesn't love this person. It's very unreliable."
Wan Die said: "Reliable or not, at least there is hope. After all, the eldest lady of the Lin family is a charming and wonderful person.
Although he is not as cold as you, Sir, he can still make men fall in love with him. Maybe the young prince is sincere and brings someone to marry him one day?
It is not easy for my daughter's family to become rich and famous. When the opportunity comes, you can't miss it. You are right."
Leng Xinnan disagreed with the other party's concept, but considering their different identities, she did not refute it.
Li Nanke stared at the tea leaves floating in the teacup as if absentmindedly, carefully sorting out the clues in his mind, and murmured to himself: "When the opportunity comes, naturally you can't miss it."
