Chapter 111 Six Flowers Flying 07(1/2)

Bo Ruoyou got up early, had breakfast, and went straight to the yamen. It was spring now, and the streets and alleys were covered with elms and willows, and the tung branches were covered with green tung trees. When the sun climbed to the sky, it was already a bit exciting.

When Bo Ruoyou arrived at the yamen, he saw Wu Xiang coming out of the back hall with a stack of official documents. When he saw her entering the door, he came with a smile. Bo Ruoyou looked into his arms, "What documents are these?"

Wu Xiang sighed, "It's the case in Guzhang Village and the case of riding a horse the day before yesterday."

When Bo Ruoyou filed this case, his eyes were slightly dark, "Has Huang come?"

Wu Xiang nodded and followed her to the duty room where the civil servants were. "I've been here and the evidence has been written, and the case has been settled. The prince of the Wei family was also taken away. The prince of the Shangshu family, haha--"

Wu Xiang mocked him and sneered again. Bo Ruoyou looked at him, "What's wrong?"

"I interrogated the master that day, but the young master of the Wei family seemed a little abnormal."

Bo Ruoyou frowned, "Improper?" She thought for a moment, and thought that Feng Ye had always spoken that day, and couldn't help but say unexpectedly: "Can he be... he's a mute?"

Wu Xiang laughed out loud, "It's not that the mute is just a little confused, it's wrong. You can't be confused, it's just that the preface is inconsistent. How to say it? It's weird and you can't tell anything if you don't speak. Once you speak, you'll feel like you're having a fever and getting drunk, and you're confused."

Bo Ruoyou was a little surprised when he heard this. When he saw that day, he felt that Wei Yan's face was nervous and his body was stiff. He felt guilty at first glance. He hid beside Feng Ye, and he obviously relied on Feng Ye very much on weekdays, but he never thought that he would be like this after he spoke. But after hearing what Wu Xiang said, he thought that day, he was afraid that he would have restrained something in addition to being nervous.

Bo Ruoyou said: "Maybe I really drank wine."

Wu Xiang waved his hand, "I asked, I have never drunk alcohol. I suspect he is not good at thinking, or he has had some disease. It is not surprising that such a person will have such an accident in the downtown area, but it is just pitiful to the innocent people."

Bo Ruoyou frowned. Now that the case has been decided, there is no need to investigate it in depth. Even if the young master of the Wei family is sick, he will eventually hurt his life. Huo Weilou said that the price will be sooner or later, but if it comes too late, it will still be a rare comfort.

The two entered the duty room. Wu Xiang put down the official document and stretched out a little tiredly. "These two days are quite leisurely. I finally have a good sleep when I get home today."

When Bo Ruoyou heard this, he suddenly thought of knowing Wu Xiang for two months. He seemed to have never heard him mention his wife and children, so he asked casually: "Does the headmaster Wu Xiaoke all stay in the capital?"

Neither mentioned, Bo Ruoyou subconsciously felt that Wu Xiang's wife and children were afraid of staying in the old family. However, Wu Xiang smiled and said, "Old Wu has never married and has no children. He is just a single man without worries!"

Bo Ruoyou was shocked and Wu Xiang was over thirty years old and did not marry a wife. In this world, unless the family is poor and cannot get married, there is no one who is not married. Especially men, they often want to continue the family line. Once they pass by the Double Ten, they have to ask the matchmaker to inquire from many sources and find a suitable marriage.

Bo Ruoyou didn't want to show his surprise too clearly, and his expression was slightly stunned. The corners of her lips moved slightly. She wanted to ask, but she felt overwhelmed. After all, Wu Xiang smiled and left the room. "I also said about marriage in the early years, but it didn't work. Later, my parents at home also passed away. I thought, why do I marry a wife? There are more ties. If there are any dangerous things in the future, how dare I charge in the battle? All men and women in the world want to marry, so I will try a different way of life."

Bo Ruoyou's heart was shocked. Wu Xiang looked at the heroic and rough, but he didn't want to be so fearful of the worldly thoughts in this marriage. She didn't realize that Wu Xiang was strange, but instead admired her. The world was like invisible shackles and shackles. The shackles were light, but if she became that extremely unusual one, the shackles would be hundreds of times heavier and ordinary people could not afford it.

"The headmaster is heroic and unruly, and it is admirable." Bo Ruoyou said sincerely.

Wu Xiang smiled and held the sword beside him. Seeing Bo Ruoyou's sincere words, he felt uncomfortable, "Well, that's not the case. In fact, he has never met someone who suits you. Years or two years old, others look down on him, and I don't want to find someone to delay others casually. I feel troublesome, so it's like this. Life is also a matter of life. It's important to live a happy life. If one day I meet a bad person, I lose my life if I don't pay attention, and it's a good thing to have no wife and children."

This statement is very unlucky, Bo Ruoyou laughed, "Don't say this to the headmaster. In the future, safety will be the most important thing."

The two were laughing, and Bo Ruoyou's eyes were wrong. He saw a shadow in a blue shirt turning in from the corner gate. This is the inner yamen, and ordinary outsiders can't get in. The man was sneaky, but his back was very familiar. At this time, Wu Xiang shouted, "Hu Changqing, you are so amazing. How many days have you been in the future? Don't you want to do it?"

Qingshan's shadow turned around, his face a little cramped, it was Hu Changqing.

After a few days of sight, Hu Changqing was still the white-washed silk shirt, but he seemed to have lost weight. He was also blue and black at the moment. Bo Ruoyou saw clearly, and Wu Xiang was also shocked. He took two steps forward, "Xiao Hu, are you sick? Why have you lost so much?"

Hu Changqing coughed lightly, "No... I just got cold in the wind a few days ago, and it hasn't he recovered yet..." He said, covering his lips and coughing lightly, and then glanced deep into the inner yard, "Sir, aren't there?"

Wu Xiang looked at him up and down, "What are you going to do if you are not here today? There is no case, but you are here."

Hu Changqing looked embarrassed, "I... I am here to pay this month's salary."

Wu Xiang raised his eyebrows, "It's not April yet, and you used to be quite frugal, so you should have saved money. How could you pay your salary now? Where did you go?"

Hu Changqing looked at the ground with his eyes, then looked in anxiously, and said, "Sir, since I am not here, I will come back tomorrow." Then he walked out and turned around a few steps later, "If there is a case, the headmaster will definitely call me."

After saying this, he glanced at Bo Ruoyou with some dissatisfaction. His eyes seemed to warn her not to fight for his work. Bo Ruoyou felt amused and crying, but he had already walked out quickly.

Wu Xiang's brows became tighter and tighter, "When the wind and cold are stained, can it make people lose weight so quickly?"

Bo Ruoyou hesitated for a moment and said, "He is pretending. If he is really infected with wind and cold, he will lose weight within a few days. Then he is so serious that he is unable to get down. Moreover, he has no hoarseness or phlegm just now. His face is blue and white, not like fever. Although his breath is weak, it is all smooth. No matter how you look, it doesn't look like wind and cold. Instead, it's black and blue, his lips are dry and chapped, his eyes are dispersed, and his steps are as if he hasn't slept for many days."

Wu Xiang's eyes lit up, "Yes! That's it, it's not like the ghost we can't rest when we are busy." He frowned, "I'm going to pay money again, this kid won't have any hobby of spending money, right?"

Bo Ruoyou didn't understand Hu Changqing and did not make a judgment. Wu Xiang sighed, "He was also a scholarly family when he was young, but he was convicted of his family at the age of ten, and he became a slave. Later, he had to learn craftsmanship with the old coroner. Therefore, he was unwilling to accept it. But he had already become a low-court service, and it was impossible to do so. In addition, the adults praised him so much that he had no contributions in the past two years and had worked hard. But after the New Year this year, he became more and more unruly. If he continued like this, he would not want this job."

"Today's worth, I'll go to his house to have a look." Wu Xiang paused for a moment, and murmured to himself, "This kid has gone to many places in the tramp."

Bo Ruoyou just thought that he had not heard this. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the yamen, she said goodbye to Wu Xiang and returned home. At this time, the sun was setting in the west. Bo Ruoyou didn't know if Huo Weilou had found such a place where beautiful women laughed, and he was leisurely for a while.

There was no progress here at Huo Weilou. He returned to the Hou Mansion first, and Lu Ke and Ning Xiao arrived for a while later.

Lu Ke said with a serious expression: "I asked about the gardens in Beijing and went to find the gardeners who went to and from various residences in Beijing. Everyone didn't know what the beautiful smile was. The villain thought, either the man was using his own gardener, or it was a coincidence. Some people didn't know what the beautiful smile was, but because they liked the colors, they kept it in the garden."

Huo Weilou disagreed with this statement, "This thing is rare and expensive, and it is very delicate and difficult to support it. The weather in the capital is not suitable for this thing. Since this is the case, if it is just raised casually, how can it be maintained well? If it is true, then we really have a chance to encounter it. Just use the manpower of the entire Zhituan Department to find a needle in a haystack."

Ning Xiao said: "Bo Jingqian in prison is still the same kind of rhetoric. He suffered a little last night, but he did not change his confession."

Huo Weilou rubbed his finger on his finger, "If you don't say it, just leave it alone and see how many days he can hold on. As for the beautiful smile, it is the most important clue at the moment and cannot be discarded. In addition to gardeners, vendors supplying flowers, herbal medicines must also check them one by one."

Lu Ke responded, "Then the Marquis might have asked Miss Bo to draw two pictures? The people below only asked the name, and knew the rough color, but they didn't know what it looked like."

Huo Weilou looked at the sky outside and saw that dusk was approaching, so he ordered someone to invite Bo Ruoyou to pass the mansion. As soon as he finished his order, he came outside and reported that Huo Qinghong and Ming Guilan had arrived.

Lu Ke and Ning Xiao retreated and waited. Soon, Huo Qinghong pushed Ming Guilan's wheelchair into Huo Weilou's study.

Today, Huo Qinghong not only came, but also brought a brocade box and presented it to Huo Weilou like a treasure as soon as he sat down. "Brother, this is my new good thing recently. No one can forget my younger brother, but he will never forget my elder brother. Moreover, this thing is of great help to my elder brother. Please accept it with a smile."

Huo Qinghong looked like a dog-legged look and looked at Huo Weilou. Huo Weilou frowned, "What kind of vulgar thing is it?"

"This is not a common thing! This thing is very expensive. I spent a lot of money to buy these." Huo Qinghong was very enthusiastic. "The most important use of this thing to the elder brother is that when the elder brother is tired, he only needs to use a little to refresh his mind and make the elder brother not feel tired even if he handles official business all night long."

Huo Qinghong is not the first time that he has presented treasures to Huo Weilou. He has grown up with gold and jade since he was a child. Ordinary and rare things cannot be seen by him. Occasionally, he will give them some rare and precious things to Huo Weilou. However, no matter how rare and precious treasures are, they are just ordinary things to Huo Weilou. Over the years, there are only a few weapons that are considered to be Huo Weilou.

If it were normal, Huo Weilou would refuse the fancy brocade box when he saw it, but he didn't expect Huo Qinghong to say that this thing would make him not tired even if he stayed up all night. He became interested a little, took it and opened it, and saw a jade bottle inside it.

He asked, "What kind of medicinal herb is not good?"

Huo Qinghong smiled and said, "It can also be regarded as a medicinal material!"

Huo Weilou looked at Ming Guilan on the side, and Ming Guilan spread his hands, "I don't know what strange thing it is, I have never heard of it. As for the use of refreshing the mind, the marquis just listen to it. People are physical bodies and it is impossible to really cultivate into a god. If you should rest, you will rest. Only then will you keep your health."

Ming Guilan is a doctor, so of course he would not listen to the fallacies Huo Qinghong said. Huo Qinghong snorted softly, "I wanted to give it to you, but I had already thought that you wouldn't want it, so I didn't give it to you. I tried this thing for a few days and it worked very well every time. If you don't love these, don't rob me of it. Anyway, my elder brother can use it."

When Huo Weilou heard his words, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly and opened the jade bottle. He saw that there was a golden paste inside. He placed it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it lightly, but there was only a faint smell of grass and wood, and there was nothing strange about it.

"What is this thing called? Where did it come from?"

Huo Qinghong smiled and said, "This thing has two names, one is Golden Paste and the other is Jile San. It was originally circulated among the nobles in the southwest area. Now it has just entered the capital for a few days. It is said that it is made of the essence of flowers and grass. The meaning of golden paste is that it is like gold. Secondly, this thing is that the fingernails and urination are worth one or two gold. Jile San means that this thing can make people reach the state of paradise."

When Huo Weilou heard this, he felt that this thing was quite inappropriate. "You want to eat it into your stomach? Is it like refining alchemy and seeking Taoism?"

In the previous dynasty, there were people who were obsessed with practicing Taoism and becoming immortals. They used gold, stone, plants and trees to refine elixirs, and then swallowed them into their stomachs. However, most of them were poisoned and died. Later, when they arrived in this dynasty, they called alchemy forbidden art, and the Taoist lineage also declined a little. Now Huo Qinghong whispered and blissed, which made him feel inappropriate.

However, Huo Qinghong waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, it is not something to eat. Brother, don't worry, I dare not give it to the things in my mouth. This thing is used to incense--"

He said, and then went forward, and took out a fine brass in the brocade box forging, like a lotus seat, and there was a hole in the middle of the lotus seat. Huo Qinghong said, "Brother only needs to put the gold paste in the hole, and then lit a piece of wick under it. When the wick burns, it will heat the gold paste on it. Brother only needs to smell the smell on it."

Huo Weilou felt the troubles were so troublesome that he frowned and wanted to put it away. However, Huo Qinghong couldn't help but continue to praise this thing, "Brother believes in me, this thing must be very useful to the brother, but it is much more useful than those things that are sunken. If the brother feels tired, he can recover a hundred times of his energy by just a little bit."

If it was just a thing that refreshed the mind, why was it so precious? He frowned and said, "What is the saying of the state of paradise?"

When Huo Qinghong heard this, he smiled slightly, "This, brother, I'm afraid there is no need for it for the time being..."

Huo Weilou raised his eyebrows inattentively, and Huo Qinghong said, "This paradise means that if you are with a woman and use more doses of this thing, you can be happy a hundred times-"

With a "bang", Huo Weilou threw the jade bottle into the brocade box, "So did you get this thing in the fireworks place?"

Huo Qinghong waved his hand quickly, "No, no, no, this is not. This is given to me by Feng Ye and the others. It is hard to find a thousand gold coins, but it is different from the things used in the fireworks land. However, I heard that there are also such things in the fireworks land in Beijing today. Of course, they have all got inferior goods."

Seeing that Huo Weilou was disbelief, Huo Qinghong said again: "If you don't believe me, I ask Gui Lan. I haven't gone out many days. Even if I use this thing myself, it can make me feel happy."

Huo Weilou still felt that this thing was inappropriate, so he went to see Ming Guilan again, "Is this thing poisonous?"

Before Ming Guilan could speak, Huo Qinghong said, "Brother, look at me, see if I'm poisoned? I gave it to my elder brother after trying it myself. If it's poisonous, Feng Ye and the others would have been poisoned and died of death."

Ming Guilan was amused and crying, "The Marquis I have seen does not look poisonous, but this kind of thing is like those inferior medicines, which may cause some damage to people. It is best not to use it unless necessary."

Huo Qinghong had a bitter face, "Is it so serious? Am I doing it well?"

Huo Weilou shook his head and put away the brocade box. "Everything is full will lead to loss. The words of happiness are just a loss of fun. You don't go out these days. When the case in my hand is over, I want to tell your father and mother that you will find an errand for you."

Huo Qinghong shrank his neck and did not dare to argue anymore. Seeing that Huo Weilou put the brocade box to the corner of the table, he was not concerned, he could only sigh regretfully, and Huo Weilou talked about the serious matter with Ming Guilan.

"Do you know there is a medicinal herb called Beauty Smile?" Huo Weilou asked.

"Beauty laughed?" Ming Guilan thought for a moment, "It seems that he has no impression. What's wrong? This medicinal material is related to the case?"

Huo Weilou nodded, "I didn't expect that even you didn't know that we have been looking for a place where beautiful women are laughing in the capital these days, but we haven't found it yet, so I'm afraid it will take some effort."

Ming Guilan pondered, "I really don't have any impression, but Is there an alias?"

Huo Weilou shook his head, and Ming Guilan said, "After returning home, I asked my father, he might know some rare medicinal herbs."

Huo Weilou responded, turned his eyes and looked out the window, as if he was waiting for someone.

Ming Guilan said: "The Marquis will have a guest later?"

Huo Wei's floor was unchanged, "for the case."

Upon hearing this, Ming Guilan looked at Huo Qinghong, "Criminal, the marquis has official duties, let's go, you have delivered the goods, so you should go back to the house earlier." He said and looked at the brocade box, "These non-spoken things should be used less, and it may hurt your body."

Huo Qinghong knew what he meant, and he said helplessly: "It's not what you think..."

Ming Guilan heard what he said and only regarded this thing as aphrodisiac and strengthened the aphrodisiacs. Although he felt that it was not a good thing, the children of the aristocratic families played tricks and knew some of the messy things. As long as they did not hurt the root of the problem and could not stop it, he would not talk much. Because of his disability, he had always been clean and had no desires, so he was too lazy to see these things.

Huo Weilou also said: "If I know that you spend all day on these things, you don't have to find errands in the capital, and go to the north to practice for a few years."

Huo Qinghong was startled and hurriedly made a promise. After a while, he left with Ming Guilan.

After the two of them left, Huo Weilou looked at the brocade box in front of him and felt helpless. After listening to this thing for a while, it was just a thing to replenish people's essence. When Huo Qinghong said that he was very happy with the woman, he also thought about the aphrodisiac and cheering up. The fireworks also began to circulate, so what was different from the aphrodisiac and scent? At most, it was a bit more expensive for those who sell this thing to brag about.
To be continued...
