: Cleanse the dust but not the heart (11)

The beggar was covered in a ragged-haired and dirty dress, wearing a torn dress that was obviously not suitable. I don’t know why he squeezed among the scholars until he came to Wang Shangshu and knocked away the guests invited by Lord Shangshu.

Where can this put General Rong's face?

“Bold.”

General Rong shouted and instantly raised a palm and slashed at the beggar.

The beggar turned over on the ground. General Rong did not expect this move. He used too much force to slash directly on the ground. His hand almost broke, and he grinned and rubbed his wrists.

"How can you hide?" General Rong became angry, endured the pain, and made consecutive moves towards the beggar.

The beggar didn't take a single move, and just rolled around on the ground with a "ahhh" cry. In everyone's eyes, he looked embarrassed and rolled all over the ground, but he had no fur at all.

Gu Buquan hurriedly got up from the ground to smooth things over.

"Just just a beggar, just send him some copper coins, General Rong can't be angry with him."

When I touched the bag, it was empty, so I had to reach out to General Rong to ask for a copper plate.

She knew very well that it was Ling An.

She was surprised because he dared to appear here and there openly.

Although he looks like a beggar and his face is black, his opponent is General Rong from the God Captain Department after all. Once he is recognized, the consequences will be unimaginable.

She didn't understand that he wanted to stop her from entering the Chenchen Tea House despite his own safety, which shows that he was still thinking about her in his heart.

A warm feeling appeared in my heart.

But she had to go in to the Xichen Tea House because there was another elder brother who was missing and she felt uneasy if she didn't go in and check it out.

Besides, with Lord Shangshu here, even if the Xichen Tea House is really a demon cave, you can't attack her in front of Lord Shangshu, right?

"Go and go somewhere else to beg."

She stuffed the copper plate into Ling'an's hand and whispered in his ear while deliberately pushing it, "I have to go in and find Brother Chen."

Ling An was anxious and annoyed: "Who is the so-called Brother Chen?"

Gu Buquan had to pat his head and said loudly, "Sir Shangshu invites a little girl to have tea. It's a rare opportunity. Brother, don't let go, go quickly. Sun Xiaokong, drive him away."

Sun Xiaokong came in response, jumped on Ling An's shoulder and squeaked. He didn't know where he came and handed it to his hand.

It seems that the broken monkey also recognized Ling An and was close to him.

Seeing that Gu Buquan was determined to enter the tea shop, Ling An had to leave helplessly.

Lord Shangshu looked at Ling An's limping back, and felt a little confused, but his face was still kind and led Gu Biaoquan into the tea shop together.

General Rong rubbed his wrist and looked depressed. He didn't hurt himself without hitting the beggar, but he also lost a copper coin. It turns out that he was the only one in the audience?

When entering the door, General Rong suddenly turned around and looked into the distance. He seemed to have seen someone who surprised him. His face became extremely solemn, and he quickly turned around and walked in.

In fact, Ling'an has never left Gu Buquan in the past two days.

He was worried, and he didn't dare to get too close, and he didn't want people to recognize him.

Every rumor about the Xichen Tea House fell into his ears.

There are many doubts about Xichen Tea House, how could he let her go and go there alone?

As a last resort, he temporarily decided to take the torn clothes that Wang Ma had placed in the "bedding" and appeared as a beggar, intending to stop Gu Buquan, but obviously the effect was minimal.

He could not stop Gu Binquan and Ling An did not dare to leave. He had to find an inconspicuous corner of the wall to sit down and wait for Gu Binquan to come out.

His eyes scanned around like a hawk, and in another dark corner, he caught a dark shadow.

You can feel it without getting close to it. It was the masked man in black who had fought with him several times.

His doubts became deeper and deeper - was the masked man in black staring at the Xichen Tea House or Gu Buquan? Are he in the same group as the man and woman in Luoyanpo?

At the same time, the masked man in black actually nodded at him. Obviously, his every move was also seen by the man in black.

But this time no one took action and stared at the Xichen Tea House.

No one noticed that the sound of the piano girl's piano playing has been changed to ambushing on all sides, and the string is more rapid than the other string, and the sound is breathtaking.

Just as Ling An was calm and holding his breath, staring at the tea shop while always guarding against the masked man in black, a figure tiptoed toward him and a hand quietly reached out to his back.

He suddenly rotated his body and pinched the person's neck and pressed against the wall.

"Let go, let go, let go..."

I looked closely and found that it was a flower ramming bell.

"If you don't stay in the inn, what's the point of doing? Add two more points of strength and your neck is broken." He frowned.

Hua Yaoling covered her neck and coughed for a while before she returned to her energy.

"Good guy, you owe me a life and haven't paid it back yet, and you want to kill me again?"

Ling An asked, "How do you recognize me?"

Hua Yaoling gave Ling An a blank look: "Do you think I can't recognize you if I pretend to be a beggar? Don't think that the only one who has a close relationship with you is just a blind eye. I Hua Yaoling also has the same feelings with you, okay?"

In fact, she recognized Ling'an because of Sun Xiaokong.

Apart from taking care of it, this monkey was only close to Ling'an. He handed him a cake. Who wasn't Ling'an?

"Have I always had a good relationship with her?" He was a little surprised.

"Of course not. She just knows how to guess and what others want." Hua Yaoling snorted coldly.

"The Lord Shangshu was deceived by her last time. This time she learned to write on the wooden board, and she just wanted to be fresh. Humph, the person who sells coffins is very sensible."

Ling An frowns even tighter.

"Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

Hua Yaoling then remembered the serious business.

"What happened, something big happened. I heard from the store that someone died outside the city. The government said that those who provide effective clues will receive a great reward."

"There are things about dead people every day. I don't recognize many living people, and I don't recognize dead people, so what does it have to do with me?"

Ling An was not interested, and sat down on his own, still staring at the tea shop. However, the masked man in black was gone where the corners of his eyes were swept.

"It's the Fu family in Luoyanpo." Hua Yaoling said again.

Ling An's expression was stern.

When Hua Yaoling saw Ling An seemed to be moved, she immediately said, "Silly, you are actually the smartest stupid one in the world. In Qingzhou Prefecture, you solved the big case and got a silver reward of 150 taels. This time in the capital, the silver reward can only be more or less. Why don't we take a look? Anyway, you are so powerful, it's not difficult to solve a case."

Ling An stood up and rushed to Luoyanpo without saying a word.

Hua Yaoling hurriedly followed behind and chased after her, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.

What she wanted was not a few dozen taels of silver, but a thousand taels.

She had made up her mind to exchange Ling'an for silver rewards, but she also knew his ability. Just now, General Rong could not hurt his fur after so much effort, so she knew how powerful he was.

She acted rashly and had endless troubles. What she wanted was to get money and get out of it.

So she tried her best to instigate Ling'an to solve the case. Then she used another move and asked him to walk into the government office by himself. Then she came forward to testify. Even if there was no 1,000 taels of silver, at least 500 taels would be there?

And he showed up on his own, no wonder she would feel uncomfortable if she spends money in the future.

Ling'an rushed to Luoyanpo, where many people were watching the fun.

Another male corpse was added to the tea garden of Fu family. He was dressed as a scholar and was also hungry.

The person who received the case was Jingzhao Government Office. After several inquiries, the onlookers shook their heads and said they didn’t know this person.

Someone whispered, saying that he seemed to have seen this person at the Xichen Tea House.

"It seems like a talented man. Master Shen from Xichen Tea House appreciated him very much and directly invited him to the inner room for details. Later, no one saw him."

"Can you be sure it's him?" someone asked. "If so, go up and get the silver reward and let's have a drink."

The man quickly shook his head and waved his hand and said he was not sure, it was better to have less than more things.

"Yes, after all, it involves Xichen Tea House, and the owner of the Mansion Shen has a friendship with many high-ranking officials in the court. Let's be more cautious, maybe you can get the silver reward and lose your life."

Ling An heard for a while and suddenly said intimately: "Not good."

If this person’s whispers are true, the situation of the deceased is so similar to that of Brother Chen who is not careful!
