Square inch by Kyushu

After he separated from Gu An that evening, he planned to find a restaurant to have a tooth-beating ceremony.

But when he passed the "Langyu Pavilion", a brocade handkerchief suddenly floated down from midair and landed on his shoulder by accident.When he saw the embroidered veil of water lilies swaying in the middle of the lake, he immediately smiled knowingly, and a touch of wind flowed from his lips, and he looked towards the pavilion.

And his look happened to meet the eyes of the owner of the veil.

As the saying goes: the hardest thing to bear the favor of a beautiful woman, if there is a beautiful woman meeting him, how can he not understand the style?What's more, this beauty is the number one beauty in Shengle City, the number one oiran in Langyu Pavilion?And every time she took the initiative to invite him, he would be able to eat and drink for nothing in the soft jade, so how could such a great good thing be enjoyed? So he spread his fan, turned around and walked in After leaving the "Langyu Pavilion", he went straight to the beauty's place.

The beauty is called Shui Furong, every frown and smile is as stunning as a water hibiscus, and every move is as elegant and refined as a water hibiscus.As delicate as a flower and as gentle as water, it fascinates the men in Shengle City tossing and turning every night, from the powerful to the common people, all want to kiss Fangze.

It's just that all peerless beauties have a bit of a temper, so Shui Furong always chooses guests according to her own preferences, and people who don't agree with her will never be seen.Although this made her offend a lot of dignitaries, it also inadvertently made her raise her social status—it was precisely "a wife is worse than a concubine, a concubine is worse than stealing, and stealing is worse than not being able to steal."

And Li Muge was lucky to be one of those countless men who fell in love with her, and he was also the number one among them, otherwise how could he not pay a penny every time he came?

It's just that although he has a deep friendship with Shui Furong, when he thinks about it carefully now, he suddenly feels that Shui Furong that night seems to be more attentive than before.And she, who had never left anyone to spend the night, unexpectedly pulled him back that night after he had a romantic relationship with her.

What she said at the time was:

A wealthy businessman has already bought her body to take her through the door, so we don't know when we will meet again today.But the years are fleeting, and the beauty is easy to change. Although she has a deep affection for him, she can't afford to wait for him.I only hope that Mr. Lang can accompany her tonight, and I will think about it in the future.

Seeing that her cheerful face had changed from the past, and now she was full of tears, and every word she spoke was sincere and pitiful, so his heart softened and he stayed with her until midnight, but he didn't stay overnight. "Before turning quiet, he shirked and left.

Before leaving, Shui Furong stood by the door and said to him sadly: "I know you don't have me in your heart, but who did you have in your heart?" Her voice was extremely sad.

He smiled softly, noncommittal.

So Shui Furong took a box of Furong Cake from the cabinet and gave it to him, saying that she made it herself and wanted to keep it as a souvenir for him, hoping that he would think of her a little bit when he tasted the cake.Although he felt a little strange at the time, he took the box of hibiscus cakes back to the inn without thinking too much.

Therefore, An automatically ignored the part of Shui Furong's deep-rooted love for him, and asked the main point: "So you got poisoned after eating that Furong cake?"

"No, I don't like sweets." Li Muge shook his head, and then he added: "If I ate it, I would have thought that the poison was in the hibiscus cake, but I really didn't eat a single bite."

Gu An held the piece of wood, shook his head and said, "If so, I'm afraid that the 'wink of an eye' was not placed in the hibiscus cake, but on the oil paper that wrapped it. The ancient and strange poison 'wink of an eye' is a very strong attachment. Even if you only touch a little bit of poison, you can be easily poisoned. And although you haven't eaten the cake, you must have touched the greased paper with your hands, and who would defend their hands? So it is very likely You poisoned yourself."

After finishing speaking, he wrapped the wood chips, walked to the basin, scrubbed and dried his hands repeatedly.

Seeing this, Li Muge couldn't help laughing at himself: "It seems that I made a mistake on the point of 'negligence of cleanliness'? It really is an injustice case, it is really an ancient injustice! But fortunately, I met my old brother after I went to heaven."

He suddenly moved his face closer to Gu An, and looked at him with a smile on his face, his peach blossom eyes were less charming than usual, but a little more gentle, which made Gu An's hand that was pouring tea pause slightly.

Why at this moment, he felt that his eyes were so familiar, as if the time suddenly turned back, back to a starry night, and the wind on the high roof brought the fragrance of plum... "Are you sure you didn't meet me deliberately, Is it an unintentional arrangement from the heavens?" After a meal, Gu An continued to pour tea, and the tea was poured without leaking, just like his emotions, never leaking on his face.

Li Muge did not answer him, but instead said: "Dali Temple Minister Luo Qiuli is from the General's Mansion, so we speculated in the morning that his death should have a lot to do with General Zhen Guo's 'political enemy'—Fuyao Hou Li Shengxin. And Now we found out that I was poisoned because of Shui Furong. So Qingyu and Shui Furong partnered to blame me for killing the imperial court official, and they are probably Li Shengxin's people?"

Gu An nodded and said, "I'm not sure if they are Li Shengxin's people, but what is certain is that Shui Furong must have something to do with this 'sapphire case'."

"But why is it me? I dare to say that I have never had anything to do with Xi Guochaotang." Because whether it is his career as a businessman or his status as a Jianghu man, it seems that he has nothing to do with the court of this country. He didn't want to go, and this time he came to Shengle just because he happened to pass by.

"Are you a local?" Gu An's doubts about this matter also lie in the fact that Li Muge's connection with this capital is too weak.

Hearing this, Li Muge shook his head firmly.

"Then do you have any relatives or friends here?" Gu An asked again.

Li Muge still shook his head, and added: "Although this is not the first time for me to come here, every time I come here, I just do some business, and the time I stay will not exceed a month."

After hearing this, Gu An was silent for a while, and finally speculated in a deep voice: "Maybe it has something to do with Sheng Jisheng." When he said this, his eyes were dark, as if there was a lot of meaning behind his words, but he raised his eyes and looked up again. Wang felt that there was actually nothing there.

Li Muge took a deep look at the other party when he heard the words, for the first time he spoke with a smile but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"Although the old brother's inferences have always been accurate and safe, I'm afraid this time he will miss his feet. In fact, I don't have a deep relationship with Sheng Jisheng, let alone have any interest. So like me Such an unknown person is not worthy to be the intersection between the two. Brother Tai has always been thoughtful and witty, but it is better not to think too deeply, because you are smart and you are mistaken by cleverness. And old brother, I have promised to take you there' I will not break my promise. But I really don't know anything about what you want to know. Even if you and I are using each other now, please don't speculate on my Wang family anymore. At the same time, I also hope that you can understand I have a little bit of trust in that."

At this moment, Gu An felt as if he had heard a big joke: when they met, they had their own schemes, and after the reunion, they plotted against each other. Even if they join hands to investigate the case now, it is just an exchange of interests between them.What qualifications and positions do these two people have to ask each other's "trust"?

Looking at Gu An's expression, Li Muge also felt that he had told a big joke, so he couldn't help laughing out loud.

The sun has set and the moon has not yet risen. Although there is laughter in the dark room at this time, it is difficult to breathe.

"Let's go." Li Muge smiled and got up and said to Gu An, both of them knew where they were going.

So An also laughed, but it was a quiet smile, which seemed shallow but deep.

Putting down the teacup, he followed Li Muge and walked out.

As for the joke just now, both of them just laughed it off as a joke.

As the number one prostitute in Shengle, Langyu Pavilion was full of people as soon as night fell, and the sounds of warblers and swallows could be heard endlessly.

Gu'an and Li Muge walked around the bustling front of the gate and walked to a secluded place before stopping.

"This place is the closest to Shui Furong's residence." Li Muge whispered, pointing to a high wall in front of him, and at the same time stretched out his arm, signaling Gu An to be well.

Although Gu An looks indifferent on the surface, he is very lonely in nature.Who will appreciate it when I see you at this time?So before the opponent could react, he jumped up and climbed over the wall first.

Li Muge hit a soft nail, so he had no choice but to smile bitterly, and immediately turned over.

"I've felt your pulse, and your internal energy is lacking intermittently. Why do you have to be brave in such a trivial matter?" After landing, Li Muge still couldn't help but hold Gu'an and blamed him.

Gu An still didn't appreciate his concern, and just flatly refused: "Brother Li, let's take care of ourselves for the important matter." The implication is to let him "mind your own business".

Although Li Muge had long been used to his indifference and alienation, he still felt a little disappointed when he heard these words.But this kind of loss was unexpected to him.

With a blunt dry laugh, he said apologetically, "Your Majesty, I've exceeded the norm..."

Gu An looked at the disappointment in his eyes, and for some reason, a trace of guilt quietly rose in his heart.But he didn't say anything after all, just nodded his head lightly and walked forward silently.

A person like him is not worthy of anyone's concern, nor should he have anything to do with anyone.

Along the way, the two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding and stopped talking until they reached a rockery. Li Muge pointed to a courtyard in front of him and said, "Shui Furong's courtyard is ahead." After speaking, he did not continue walking, but It is to stop in place and think about it.

Gu An didn't ask him why he stopped, but flicked his fingertips, only to hear a "meow", a cat fell from the roof to the ground.

At the same time, the bushes in the courtyard suddenly had no wind at the same time, and saw that the cat had been pierced by an arrow in a flash, and after that, the night returned to its original silence.It seemed that everything just happened was just a blink of the moon god.

"Brother Gu, can I say that the two of us really have a good understanding and a perfect understanding?" Li Muge was not surprised by Gu An's move, but was delighted that he lived up to expectations.

"Isn't that how smart people deal with smart people? It's not limited to you and me." No matter when, where and what happens, Gu An's attitude of "rejecting people thousands of miles away" has never changed.

"Then I would like to ask the wise old master to tell me, what should I do now? The dark part of the courtyard has been guarded by people, and the enemy is hidden. How can I sneak in quietly?" Although Li Muge asked Gu An again, he was actually asking Own.

Gu'an glanced at the "hidden mystery" courtyard lightly, and said, "Since we can't sneak in 'quietly', we will enter 'openly', just hoping that Shui Furong can still be alive at this moment."

Li Muge understood immediately when he heard the words, but seeing Gu An's scholarly and indifferent appearance, he was afraid that since he had never been to the place of fireworks, he would be a little blunt when he pretended to be a prostitute, so he couldn't help worrying.After thinking about it for a while, I finally couldn't help but said: "My brother, if you feel restrained and nervous for a while, you can give me a wink."

Gu An ignored him at all, and went straight to the front yard.

Seeing him like this, Li Muge only thought that he was pretending to be calm because of the face of a man, but he didn't expect this "ice cube" to be human, so he couldn't help but look forward to the development in the future.

After a while, Li Muge and Gu An walked around to the main gate.As soon as you enter Langyu Pavilion, you will be greeted by Hua Niang immediately. The thoughtful hospitality is worthy of its title of "No. [-] in Shengyue".

Li Muge used to be a regular visitor, although it was easier for others to recognize him now, but he was still very familiar with it.It's just that he didn't expect that Gu An, who always looked pure-hearted and ascetic, came here to do good and good, without any embarrassment.

Although he is not amazing in appearance, his light and elegant charm has attracted countless flower girls' hearts.So surrounded by fat, swallows and thin people, it was much more lively than Li Muge's for a while.

Seeing this scene, Li Muge was really surprised.So he took the opportunity to whisper in Gu An's ear and whispered, "Gu brother really hides his secrets, I didn't expect that he is also a master of love, the queen bee of flowers."

So An drank the nectar from a jade hand, and whispered in the ear of the other party: "Is it possible that you can think of my business?"

Li Muge hugged Huaniang next to her, kissed her until she gasped, and then said with a smile: "If you don't think of it, you can think of it after a little more research."

At this time, he gently let go of the woman in his arms, threw a huge gold ingot on the table and said: "Go and call the best girl here!"

Seeing Jin Zi, the old bustard burst into smiles, and hurriedly went to give orders.

Li Muge dragged her back with one hand, and re-emphasized: "I want the best girl, except for Shui Furong, don't fool me with other vulgar fans!"

Hearing the name "Water Lotus" at first, the old bustard's expression suddenly changed slightly, but in a blink of an eye, he put on a flattering face again.

"Let me tell you, sir, Furong is the top card here. It's so easy to see. You don't have money to..."

Before she finished speaking, Li Muge dropped two more gold ingots, raised his eyes and asked, "Is that enough?"

Although the old bustard had a greedy look in his eyes, he still refused cruelly: "Furong has a guest today, why don't you come back another day? I'll ask Luoyu to greet you today, Luoyu is also the number one here... ..."

While talking, Li Muge suddenly pulled the old bustard in front of her eyes, and said with a sneer, "Why, you said you couldn't see it just now, and now it's Shui Furong picking up the guests again? Well, as long as you lead me outside the room where she picks up the guests, let me secretly watch her." At a glance, the gold is all yours. How about it, don't embarrass you?"

His hand tightened more and more, and a red mark was drawn on the old bustard's neck.

The old bustard looked at Jin Zi, then at Li Muge, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll take you to see it right now."

At this time, Gu An noticed that a few flower girls in the corner quickly exited the hall, fearing that they looked strange and walked in a hurry.He was not in a hurry to expose it, and just quietly followed behind Li Muge to see "Water Lotus".

When they came to a guest room, the bustard asked Li Muge to look in through the half-covered door, and he saw a stunning woman performing a performance with the wine.Although there are layers of veils to make it looming, but the appearance and appearance are water lotus.

At this time, the old bustard proudly said: "People have also seen it, and hope that the guest officer will not slip up."

As soon as she finished speaking, she didn't expect Li Muge to push the door open and entered, so she immediately looked horrified.

Li Muge strode forward, took the woman with one arm and said, "Girl, although you have imitated your expression and attitude to ten percent, it is not her after all." Although he has a rough face, his voice is gentle, and his peach eyes are even more charming. soul-stirring.The woman was stunned for a while, and she forgot to struggle to escape.

At this time, Gu An blocked the way of the old bustard who was about to slip away, and said with a light smile: "Buddhist, where are you going? But I want to invite the real water lotus for us."

etc.

Although she was laughing, the old bustard felt her whole body was as cold as falling into an ice cave, trembling like chaff for a moment, tremblingly said: "Water... Shui Furong...she...she has thrown it elsewhere."

"The bustard, you're joking again. Didn't you just say that Shui Furong is picking up guests? I know her quite well, and I know where she lives. Why don't we go now?" Li Muge stepped forward and grabbed the bustard, and walked towards Shui Furong's building without any explanation. courtyard.

Both of them are masters of martial arts, although there are thugs obstructing them along the way, they are naturally no match for the two of them.

Entering the hospital so ostentatiously caught the guards hiding in the dark by surprise—I didn't know whether I should show up to stop them or stay still, should I expose them or continue to hide?

In the end, they decided that they should wait and see what happened before they got any orders.

The two of them entered the house, but there was no one there.

Seeing the opportunity, the old bustard hurriedly begged for forgiveness: "You two guests, please spare this old slave. This time, this old slave really didn't lie to you, this Shui Furong is the number one oiran in the city, I can't stop her from leaving. I didn't say it clearly just now, because I was afraid that if the news of her departure was revealed, it would affect the business of Langyu Pavilion."

Li Musinger relaxed slightly, played with the gold in his hand and said with a light smile: "Really? That's because we brothers were reckless."

Seeing that there was a turning point, the bustard hurriedly waved his hands and said, "What are you talking about? This guest is our god, and this god can do whatever he wants. As long as you are happy, there is nothing wrong with tearing down my garden."

"Hehe, we're only here for fun, why tear down your garden, you're too worried." Li Muge grabbed the old bustard and blocked the door, while circling with her, he covered Gu'an who was searching for clues.

At this time, he threw another ingot of gold to the old bustard, and said with a smile: "I have caused you a lot of trouble just now, and my little care should be my compensation."

The old bustard was holding the huge ingot, his eyes were full of smiles, and he immediately flattered and flattered him, and he had no time to pay attention to it at this time.

Seeing this, Li Muge moved the two of them a little closer to the door, completely blocking all eyes outside the door.

After a while, Gu An gave Li Muge a "finished" wink, and Li Muge immediately ended the "long" greeting with the old bustard after receiving it. God knows how "long" the time has passed in front of an old face that has faded from makeup. ".
