The rain was sometimes heavy and sometimes light, and there was even water accumulation in many low-lying places.
When Lin Yunyan entered Zaishouyuan, she met the two brothers Lin Yu and Lin Xun.
They had just come out of Xiao Duan's house, and while talking, they opened the umbrellas in their hands.
When the umbrella was raised, Lin Xun saw Lin Yunyan first.
"Brother," he called Lin Yu, "then I'll take the first step."
After saying that, he strode down the steps and stopped slightly when passing by Lin Yunyan.
"Mom was still talking about it just now," he laughed. "It's my fault that my eldest brother is busy with things in the yamen every day and doesn't have time to pay attention to you. Obviously, the Hanlin Academy is just an idle job."
When Lin Yunyan heard this, she bent her eyes and smiled. After saying hello to her third uncle, she walked up to Lin Yu.
"Father." she called.
Lin Yu smiled and nodded: "I've grown taller."
Lin Yunyan stretched out her hand and gestured: "I have grown so much, I guess I can grow this much more."
She gestured according to her previous figure.
Lin Yu listened carefully.
After saying a few common words, Lin Yunyan asked again: "Are you going out today too?"
She remembered that today seemed to be a day off.
"There are some things," Lin Yue pointed out without saying anything specific, "I've been a little busy these days."
Lin Yunyan pursed her lips.
In her impression, her father was indeed very busy.
As my grandmother said, he obviously has a job and doesn't like to make friends, but he has something to do from time to time.
Thinking again of the many messages my father sent them without saying a word...
Lin Yunyan thought that her father should have his own way.
The father and daughter did not talk much. Lin Yu walked out. Lin Yunyan watched him leave and raised the curtain of the main room.
There is a bamboo curtain hanging. On this rainy day, although it is not stained by rainwater, it is still a little wet, and it feels cool when it is placed on the back of the hand.
Suddenly, an idea emerged in Lin Yunyan's mind.
In recent days, probably because of the previous wine tribute, Li Shao has been very peaceful.
Of course, Lin Yunyan heard Xu Jian mention that Li Shao's peace was only on the surface, but secretly he was more unruly than before.
The alternation between day and night made Li Shao's state in the Rites Yamen look much worse.
If this continues, it stands to reason that Li Shao will be unable to hold himself any longer.
What if something happens this time...
In the past, Li Shao's scandalous things were kept well hidden.
It can be seen that someone behind the scenes is cleaning up the situation for Li Shao.
No matter what the person's purpose is, he must know Li Shao well enough.
So how can people who know Li Shao not know what kind of state Li Shao is in now?
In this case, there shouldn't be any action there.
With this thought in mind, Lin Yunyan put down the curtain, held an umbrella again and ran out of the yard, catching up with Lin Yu.
Lin Yu heard the rapid footsteps behind him and turned around.
Seeing that it was Lin Yunyan coming over, he couldn't help but be stunned: "What's wrong?"
Lin Yunyan looked up at him and asked tentatively: "Have you heard about any different situations these days?"
Lin Yu raised his eyebrows slightly: "You mean..."
"I have a feeling that something is going to happen." Lin Yunyan said.
Lin Yu's expression became a little more solemn.
He was holding an umbrella in one hand and the other hand was hanging by his side.
Lin Yunyan lowered her eyes and glanced, and sure enough, the thumb pad of her hanging hand was rubbing the side of her index finger.
Father is thinking.
There should indeed be some situations.
Otherwise, her father would smile and tell her not to think too much and scare herself.
He was just hesitating whether to tell her or not.
"You know, my feelings are very accurate." Lin Yunyan added.
Lin Yan's slightly raised right eyebrow relaxed a little.
Indeed.
Although he doesn’t know why, his daughter’s feelings are particularly keen.
The last time I hurried up the mountain to rescue the girl from the Jin family, it was also because of her sensitivity.
"I heard some news," Lin Yu said carefully, "that the monk Daoheng who disappeared from Guangde Temple seems to have appeared in the capital again a few days ago."
This time, it was Lin Yunyan's turn to be surprised.
That Dao Heng was someone who had contact with Li Mi’s eunuch Wang Liuliu.
Back then, his father discovered where Wang was hiding for six years. Xu Jian and Master Shan captured the king's servant. After interrogating him, they went to look for Dao Heng, but the monk had disappeared.
Further back, there is no trace.
At the same time, if Lin Yunyan's previous inference was not wrong, Grandma He's death in her previous life was most likely due to her accidental encounter with Wang Liuliu and Dao Heng at Guangde Temple.
Lin Yunyan and Xu Jian analyzed this monk and thought that it might not be Li Mi who was behind him. Like Wang Liuliu, he had another loyal master.
That master is the black hand stirring things up under the water in the capital.
Dao Heng was able to escape unscathed that day, but today, as long as he doesn't want to show up, it's impossible for anyone to easily find his traces.
After all, I have been a year younger and my hair has grown out.
Pian Daoheng showed up again...
Lin Yunyan took a deep breath and said to Lin Yu: "If this news reaches Mr. Shan's ears, he will definitely be anxious."
Lin Yu smiled.
This time, the father and daughter did not say anything more.
Lin Yun went out, and Lin Yunyan turned around and walked slowly towards Zaishouyuan.
The wind blew with the rain, causing her to shiver.
Don’t blame her for being cold.
The moment she heard her father say "Dao Heng", she felt inexplicably familiar.
This technique is very familiar.
In the past, she and Xu Jian had experienced this situation many times.
Seeing that the situation is calm and easing, when there are no clues about what to do next, some situations will suddenly appear.
That's a rope.
And she and Xu Jian are grasshoppers on the rope.
Although they knew that the risk ahead was extremely high, they could only continue to jump up and be held in the hands of the man.
Of course, there will be no gains from jumping around, and you can more or less gain some inside information.
Xu Jian said that the inside story is all about the abandoned son of the person behind it, but even if it is an abandoned son, they cannot miss it.
The two of them rely on those abandoned children who are like charity, and gradually draw the outline of the shadow, going deeper and deeper...
This time, is the abandoned child thrown out "Dao Heng"?
Not necessarily.
Dao Heng may be just a rope.
Are they going to keep jumping?
The answer is yes.
It’s best to jump around and pull something down.
The rain became heavier in the evening.
Xu Jian left the Yamen and got on the carriage.
Shen Chen spoke to him in a low voice: "The princess asked Chen Dong's family to pass it on... Dao Heng..."
Xu Jian closed his eyes and listened. The next moment, he suddenly felt a little warm on his legs, and he couldn't help but open his eyes.
There is an extra hand stove on his leg.
Xu Jian:......
Seeing that their master's face had darkened a lot, Shen Chen hurriedly said: "Dong Chen's family said that the princess specifically told them that late spring will return to late spring, and it will rain a lot these days..."
He said bravely, even if Xu Jian moved the position of the stove, he did not throw away the things.
Shenchen breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, he and Xuan Suzhen never paid attention to this.
Young people are all martial arts practitioners and are not afraid of the cold at all. Even in the dead of winter, they would not carry such a thing.
Even in the winter, cold water is used to wipe the body and face.
It was only in the past two years that they became more careful because of their master's injury.
Prepare a hand stove when necessary, and a warm basin when necessary.
But no matter how carefully he thought about it, Shen Chen never thought that summer was just around the corner and he still needed to be good at the stove.
Today, when Mr. Chen’s family came to convey the message, he had to go to the warehouse to turn over the stove.
Of course, he felt that what the princess said was extremely reasonable.
Since he and Xuan Su were not sick or in pain, they would not have thought that their master was not someone who would pay attention to anything when he felt uncomfortable, and he had to be the princess.
The princess can think of it.
The princess can also let her father take care of the stove when summer is coming.
If the princess is not moved out, even if he thinks of it one day, they will not take it.
The carriage slowly returned to the Fuguogong Mansion.
Xu Jian got out of the car holding the hand stove, entered the study and sat down.
The hand stove was already on his lap.
To be honest, my legs are more comfortable, but I feel a little dry.
This is inevitable.
After all, the weather is warm, and it’s hard not to get bored with such a thing.
Speaking of which, he hasn't seen Lin Yunyan for a while...
After calming down, Xu Jian thought about Dao Heng.
After sorting things out for a while, he asked Shen Chen, "Has the prince returned to the palace these days?"
"We've all gone back, and we haven't slipped out yet," Shen Chen said. "Maybe it was because we were playing hard a while ago."
Xu Jian laughed.
He was distracted while playing a while ago, and the Holy Spirit noticed it, so Li Shao became more honest.
However, it is still a bit of a coincidence to calculate the before and after.
"Has the news about Dao Heng reached Shuntian Mansion?" he asked again.
The next day, there was no rain or wind in the morning, and it started raining again in the evening. The sky was gloomy, which was really not a good day.
There are also complaints from time to time in the Rites Yamen.
I have had a little free time recently, but I didn't expect to encounter such weather.
Li Shao came in from outside, with some rain on his body, and frowned in disgust.
Eunuch Shi followed closely. When he saw this, he took out his handkerchief and wanted to tidy up Li Shao a little.
Li Shao directed him "here and there", and someone laughed.
Very familiar, ear-piercingly familiar.
"What are you laughing at?" he asked Xu Jian.
Xu Jian said casually: "I thought His Highness would like the weather."
Li Shao looked confused.
How could he like this kind of broken sky?
"The rain was heavy," Xu Jian looked at Li Shao up and down, "all the smell of flowers and wine was drowned out."
Li Shao's face became increasingly ugly.
There is no doubt that there is something in Xu Jian's words.
Could it be that Xu Jian knows what happened in that house?
Thinking about this, Li Shao was a little nervous, and then the nervousness dissipated.
So what if you know?!
Xu Jian can't do anything to him!
Last time, Xu Jian must have been the one behind the Gu Yue tribute wine incident, and Ning An directly exposed it in front of his father.
What’s the result?
It’s better to ask him to escape unscathed.
He would shower and change clothes after coming out of the house, leaving no trace of makeup or powder at all.
Even if Xu Jian's dog nose really smelled on him, he would still have the confidence to pass the test with his father.
As long as nothing happens in the house...
Liu Xun had some problems with his behavior, but the house he found was very good.
Li Shao has been there so many times and is becoming more and more satisfied because of "safety".
Proudly, Li Shao raised his chin and said, "Speak directly if you have something to say."
"In recent days, Your Highness has been more down-to-earth than I am," Xu Jian continued without giving in, "I think so. Your Majesty was not very happy the past few days, so it would be better to be more down-to-earth. I am relaxed, and so are you.
After all, you don’t like to listen to plays, and I don’t like to listen either.”
Li Shao couldn't bear this kind of excitement and sat down with a gloomy face.
After the tribute drinking ceremony, the time in the office was indeed relaxed for each other.
The only trouble was Deyue Tower.
Li Shao gets angry when he thinks about it.
He obviously didn't do anything, but was interrupted by Xu Jian.
Li Shao originally thought that Xu Jian would turn around and say a few words, but he didn't expect that the yin and yang character could endure it until today...
It’s really annoying!
When the rain is annoying, so are people.
What's even more annoying is that when I came to the Yamen, there was something wrong with an important document, so most of the Yamen had to stay up all night to work, and they were busy for more than half an hour before they left.
Li Shao stood up to leave, but was stopped by Xu Jian before he left.
"I wonder if His Highness has heard of something," Xu Jian said. "The one that Liu Xun raised in Shuixian Hutong disappeared. Liu Xun was so angry. It shouldn't have anything to do with His Highness, right?"
Li Shao had been holding his breath all afternoon and was about to burn out.
What does Xu Jian mean by this?
If the outer room is missing, what does it have to do with Li Shao?
Will he touch the things Liu Xun touched?
Liu Xun only deserves to get what he doesn’t want!
"If someone disappears, report it to the official!" After saying this, Li Shao threw down his sleeves and left.
Eunuch Shi quickly took up an umbrella and chased after him: "Young Master Fu is really talking nonsense."
Li Shao took long strides and stepped onto the carriage.
Eunuch Shi also followed and said in a sharp voice: "Go back to the palace."
"If you're not going back to the palace," Li Shao said, "I'm going to have a drink there."
Eunuch Shi understood it.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier.
In the Shuntian Mansion Yamen, Shan Shen is still busy.
There are many low-lying areas in the capital. In recent days, he has not dared to relax at all, and has ordered many government officials to check the situation.
Looking at the heavy rain, Master Shan sighed: "When will this rain last?"
The master said: "I think it will take another three to five days..."
Shan Shen shook his head with a grimace.
Three to five days is also very fatal.
Zhang Yuan came in quickly from outside, almost half wet.
The master looked at his condition and was about to say, "There's no need to be so anxious" when he saw Zhang Yuan's expression turned very bad.
It's not like I'm feeling unwell, it's like something happened.
Shan Shen also saw it: "Where did the water rise? Did it flood people's homes? Especially in the suburbs of Beijing..."
"No, no," Zhang Yuan waved hurriedly, "It has nothing to do with the heavy rain."
Shan Shen raised his eyebrows.
What does that have to do with?
It can't be that on this rainy day, someone can't think of something and commit a crime, right?
Not right either.
It's the right thing to do on a rainy day.
When the rain washed away, many clues were destroyed, and the yamen had no way to start the investigation.
It seems that the past six months have been going well, but don’t give him an unsolvable case.
Zhang Yuan said: "Someone discovered Dao Heng."
"What?" Shan Shen was shocked, "When? Where?"
"Didn't I go to Sidao Hutong yesterday? I heard a lot about it, and it matches that Dao Heng," Zhang Yuan said again, "but the person no longer lives there, so the people below didn't report it immediately.<
/p>
However, they didn't neglect to ask again, and they happened to ask something.
We are now at Chenmi Hutong."
Shan Shen rubbed his hands and was very excited: "Are you sure? You've got it right?"
"Our people saw him go in with their own eyes, so they can't be wrong," Zhang Yuan said.
Shan Shen clenched his hands into fists: "Let's go, we must not let him go this time!"
