In fact, Li Qinzai was not deeply impressed by Zi Nu's daily attentive service. He was born in the Duke's palace and grew up in fine clothes and fine food. He had countless maids and servants to serve him, but he only remembers a No. 8 technician who pinched his feet.
It is difficult to establish a gentle and well-behaved persona in front of Li Qinzai.
What impressed Li Qinzai most about Zi Nu was her flying dance when he first met her.
The graceful and moving dancing postures, riding on the wind amidst the mist of the Buddha's music, and a bit of nostalgia from the Dunhuang murals of previous lives are truly unforgettable.
My dearest lady.
Zi Nu quickly leaned over and picked up the comb, looking suspicious and panic-stricken.
She didn't know why Li Qinzai suddenly asked this question. What happened last night was so serious. It was normal for him to doubt her, but he asked her "if she dances beautifully" without a clue. This made people panic.
"My slave... my slave was practicing dancing at the time." Zi Nu's expression remained calm, and the panic in his eyes flashed away.
Li Qinzai smiled and said: "I know you are practicing dancing, so I just wanted to ask if your dancing posture is beautiful?"
"You, you, you... right?" Zi Nu whispered.
"There was a lot of commotion outside the house when the incident happened. It didn't disturb your dance practice, right?" Li Qinzai asked again.
Zi Nu was silent for a moment and said: "When the incident happened last night, the officers and soldiers in the mansion were searching for the culprits everywhere with torches. They also searched for the culprits in the backyard. Some officials wrote down the names of all of us present. It was such a chaos at that time. The slaves and maids
My dancing had to stop."
Li Qinzai murmured and sighed: "The desecration of dancing with swords is really the most disgraceful thing in the world. It is like burning a harp and boiling cranes. If the thief is caught by me, the punishment of cannon, branding and knife will not be enough to compensate for the beautiful dance..."
Zi Nu's body trembled, and he lowered his head and did not dare to say anything, but his pretty face was a little pale.
Li Qinzai glanced at her and smiled: "Do you know what the thieves took away last night?"
Zi Nu shook his head: "I don't know."
Li Qinzai said leisurely: "The things they took away may be important, but they are not very important. It's ridiculous that the thieves are stupid, thinking that just by taking away an object, they will know the details of the Tang Dynasty's top-secret weapons..."
"Ho ho, actually, even if I put the new weapon in front of us and let them imitate it, I'm afraid there won't be any results within a hundred years."
Li Qinzai looked at her again and said, "Do you know why?"
Zi Nu bit her upper lip and shook her head.
Li Qinzai tapped his head with his index finger and said: "The real secrets are all outside my head. If the thief is a little smarter, he should know that it is better to steal things than to steal people. Stealing me is the key to grasping the key."
Just running away from an object, I have to say, is quite stupid."
"Maybe they are still secretly complacent at this moment, haha!"
After all, Zi Nu is a girl under twenty years old. After Li Qinzai finished speaking, her expression was a little uncontrollable. Her stunning face was covered with haze, but she had to try hard to pretend that this matter had nothing to do with her.
, the emotions were complicated and tangled, making her face a little distorted.
Li Qinzai swept her face calmly and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
After a long time, Zi Nu couldn't help but ask: "Since the stolen items are not important, Master, why did you order the city gate to be closed and the whole city searched?"
"It's a coincidence that I had ordered the city gate to be closed before last night's incident, but at that time I had to deal with envoys from the two countries. As a result, the gang of thieves who were robbing things happened to bump into me. The thieves are probably still in the city now...
…”
"Liangzhou City is only so big, and in addition to the more than a thousand soldiers in my hands, the emperor also sent Baiqisi to help me. You may not be familiar with the name of Baiqisi, but they can be said to be pervasive. In this big city,
It's easy to find a few thieves outside."
Zi Nu's face became paler, and even his lips lost the color of their blood. He stared at the ground with his head down.
Li Qinzai pretended not to notice her gaffe, but turned to look at the sky outside the house and murmured: "Calculating the time, there should be results by this time, and those killers from Baiqisi had better not let me down..."
"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Asi's voice came from outside the house.
"Fifth Young Master, I have something to report."
"Say." Liu Asi said lazily.
"Headmaster Song of Baiqisi came to report that two hours ago, Baiqisi had captured five thieves in the city, and the rest fled in the streets. Director Song promised that all the thieves would be brought to justice before dark."
Li Qinzai's expression relaxed and he laughed and said: "Finally, I have not been disappointed. Tell Song Sen that the subordinates of Baiqisi who participated in the arrest will be rewarded with ten strings!"
Liu Asi responded and said: "The five captured thieves have been imprisoned in a small prison, and Governor Pei will torture them in person. Please rest assured that the five young masters will be able to find out their accomplices and accomplices before dark."
"Have you found the stolen items?" Liu Asi asked.
"It has been found. It was buried by the thieves under the poplar tree in the backyard of a residential house. It has been recovered now."
Li Qinzai laughed and said: "After so much effort, planning and ambushes, and taking advantage of the situation, we ended up snatching a lonely person. Tsk, the job at hand is not good, no matter how many plans we have, it is useless."
.”
Zi Nu listened quietly, his face became paler and his hands in his sleeves clenched tightly into fists.
Li Qinzai, who was in a good mood, looked at Zi Nu, turning a blind eye to her ugly face, and said with a smile: "Zi Nu, the matter is over, I only need to wait until dark to find out who their gang members are. If you want to do something happy, you
Let me dance to express my gratitude. I never tire of this song 'Flying Sky'. Will Zinu dance for me?"
Zi Nu tried his best to squeeze out a smile: "I obey my orders."
"Wine with it, let's dance!"
…………
In the side hall of the backyard, a group of dancers danced in the hall. Zinu, standing in the middle, hugged the pipa, sometimes hooking her legs, sometimes lowering her waist, and danced like Sanskrit singing. Her body was like a piece of catkins flying in the wind.
, weak and flamboyant.
It's just that today's Zinu's dance movements are not as natural as before, and every move is a bit stiff. Li Qinzai has been watching the dance for a long time, and he quickly noticed the difference.
Liu Asi pressed the knife with his right hand and stood motionless behind Li Qinzai. At this time, the singing and dancing were in full swing, but Liu Asi couldn't help but said: "Fifth Young Master, since we have determined that she is suspected, why don't you just take it directly, instead of holding it in front of Li Qinzai?"
This dance?"
Li Qinzai squinted his eyes and stared at the dancing Zi Nu, but he asked an unexpected question: "Her dancing posture is messed up."
Liu Asi scratched his head in confusion.
Li Qinzai said with a smile: "Young lady, she has a lot of worries. She is too old and not suitable for such a job in a city..."
Liu Asi whispered: "Is she sent by Tubo or Tuyuhun?"
"It's not important. Anyway, we've hit a wall. But we can't arrest her now. These thieves haven't gotten it yet. If we take her, it will only scare the snake."
"Ah Si, tell Song Sen to hurry up. Searching and inquiring is Baiqisi's weakness. Don't let me down. Otherwise, the next time I see him, I won't speak so nicely. I won't excite him to the point of hanging from his head.
