Chapter 171 Hot Dry Noodles Egg Drop Rice Wine (2)
Seeing Liu Yuan finish the morning meal and leave quickly, Yu Jijiu's bowl of hot dry noodles also bottomed out. Licking the scent of sesame sauce at the corner of his mouth, Yu Jijiu stood up, walked to the stage and asked Wen Mingtang for some more diced radish and pickled beans.
The sour beans are sour and appetizing, and the diced radish is spicy and refreshing. It tastes crispy and crispy. Although it is only an accessory, it is called Yu Jijiu. I really like it. I think it will taste very good with porridge or wine.
After sending away the Yu Ji wine, the morning meal time was coming to an end. Wen Mingtang walked outside the public kitchen and looked at the sun, then turned and returned to the public kitchen.
Ji Caimai's action of specifically looking at the sun when he went out fell in his eyes. He thought about it and asked Wen Mingtang: "Master Wen is wondering why Zhao You didn't come to help Lin Shaoqing get the morning meal today?"
Wen Mingtang nodded and said frankly: "It's a little strange. It seems that Lin Shaoqing has never stopped coming to the public kitchen to eat breakfast."
As soon as Ji Caimai said this, before Ji Caimai could speak, Tangyuan corrected Wen Mingtang: "Master Wen is wrong! Before you came to the public kitchen, Lin Shaoqing rarely came to the public kitchen, which means that Master Wen's craftsmanship is to his liking. , He only comes every day!"
But having said that, it was indeed strange that Lin Shaoqing and Zhao You didn't come here today. Even Liu Sicheng didn't talk much and hurriedly finished the morning meal and ran away.
"Maybe they went to catch the culprit!" Ji Caimai shook his head indifferently when he saw this, and continued to lower his head and settle the accounts, "When I left yesterday, I saw Lin Shaoqing telling Liu Sicheng and the others to go there earlier. Besides, …”
Besides, this case has indeed been dragging on for a long time as far as Lin Shaoqing is concerned, and it is time to end it.
…
…
The madam sat in the rocking chair with her legs crossed. She looked up at the female prostitute dancing gracefully on the stage not far in front and nodded repeatedly.
"That's right, let's practice like this!" the madam said, with a smile on her face. She turned to talk to Zhike, who was fanning her and handing her grapes, "The eyes of the nobles have been tricked for a long time. , if you don’t have something new and outstanding, how can you catch their eyes? Once our Feitianwu comes out, it will definitely set off a new trend in the capital, and then..."
Before he finished speaking, a crisp voice rang out.
"Mother!"
This sound is extremely fluent and standard Mandarin, which many locals in Chang'an cannot speak so fluently. When the madam heard this voice, the smile on her face quickly faded, and she turned to look at the woman who came over, wearing a high ponytail like a man, but wearing a women's Hufu.
Seeing such nondescript dressing up, the madam frowned more and more. When she opened her mouth, she was not polite at all: "What are you doing? You didn't practice dancing and playing music well this morning, so you're going out to wander around again?"
Jin Yanxiu smiled and was about to speak when she heard the old bustard snort again and said: "I don't keep idlers here! Your only distinguished guest, Prince Yu, can't even save himself. Look at this place, everything is half I haven’t made any money in a month! If this continues, pack your things and leave as soon as possible!"
Jin Yanxiu didn't take it seriously at the old madam's scolding. She said "Hey" and said "I know", and then said: "I recently found an important guest among the Goguryeo envoys in the hotel. He was very aggressive. It's generous. Once I get the money, I can pay off the credit card from my mother."
When he heard that she had gone out to get money, the madam's face brightened a little. She glanced at Jin Yanxiu in front of her and rolled her eyes: "Then I'll be waiting here. Go back as soon as possible!"
Jin Yanxiu said "Yes" and left happily.
After Jin Yanxiu left, the madam glanced at Zhike who was fanning her, said "poof" and said: "When Jin Yanxiu pays the money on credit from me, then kick her out! "
The Zhike on the side responded, with no strange expression on his face: This female prostitute named Jin Yanxiu is a free woman. She came to the building on her own back then, and she does not owe the building any money to redeem herself. Now I only owe some rent money to stay here!
The female prostitutes who were hanging on the wire and practicing dancing above the stage looked at Jin Yanxiu who came and went freely with envy in their eyes: they were not free. If they were like Jin Yanxiu, they would have been tortured to death by the old madam.
Leaving everything in the brothel behind, Jin Yanxiu walked to the brothel with brisk steps.
These days, because the people in Dali Temple are busy with the affairs of King Yu and Princess An of Chao Dynasty, the Goguryeo envoys do not come to the hotel every day.
Jin Yanxiu came to the hotel and knocked on the door, and soon there was an answer from behind the door.
"Which one?"
Jin Yanxiu said: "It's me, Jin Yanxiu."
There was an "Oh" from behind the door, and the person who came to open the door was a middle-aged man. Seeing that there was only Jin Yanxiu in front of the door, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and while leading her in, he said: "The people from Dali Temple have been here for several days. I came here and stood guard, which made everyone extremely uncomfortable! The few Si Cheng who were in charge of handling the case wanted to ask about every trivial matter, and several times they almost got to the point. I was really worried that I might accidentally let it slip. Stop talking..."
Jin Yanxiu could not help but nod her head when she heard this, and responded: "Those Si Cheng are indeed powerful, and I heard that Lin Shaoqing is even more powerful! If they hear anything, it will be terrible!"
The envoy of the envoy group who brought her in said "Hmm", paused, looked around, and saw that there was no one around. He turned to Jin Yanxiu and whispered: "That romantic boy named An, together with the princess, and him My fiancée has already stunned us. After you go in and kill those people, throw the murder weapon into Mr. Zhao's room."
When Jin Yanxiu heard this, she said "hmm" and said she understood: "Mr. Zhao belongs to the prince. Although Mr. An is of no use, Mr. An and the others are very powerful. This trick can be used to frame the blame. Your Excellency, they are facing off against Mr. Zhao, so that the prince can smoothly ascend to the throne."
The envoy who was about to speak was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but glance at Jin Yanxiu, and said: "You speak Chinese so fluently, you can even use Chinese idioms so well!"
Jin Yanxiu immediately laughed when she heard this. She reached out and grabbed a handful of broken hair and played with it in her hand: "I came to Darong when I was five years old, so naturally I learned all the good things about Darong!" , before the envoy could speak, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty's move of diverting misfortune to the east is great! But in the future..."
Jin Yanxiu did not finish the rest of the words. She just glanced at the envoy who was speaking and waited for him to answer.
The envoy glanced at her and said: "I understand! The Moro Religion has helped us a lot. If the prince ascends the throne, he will definitely restore the Moro Religion to its orthodoxy. By then, it is not impossible to become the state religion of Goguryeo."
Jin Yanxiu never moved a step forward, she just continued to look at the envoy without speaking.
The envoy looked at Jin Yanxiu's eyes and immediately understood and said: "Your father was the leader of the Moro Religion back then. After becoming the state religion, you can naturally become a saint of the state religion."
When Jin Yanxiu heard this, she nodded, looked at the envoy again, and reminded him: "There is one more person."
The envoy understood: "Are you talking about Mr. Quan? The revenge for killing my father must be avenged. When everything is over, he will be handed over to you. You can kill or behead him as you wish!"
