Liu Huier was thinking about letting Liu Changfeng ask Chu Ze back.
And Chu Ze and Xiao Hongmian have arrived at the Zhuangyuan Building!
As a newly opened restaurant, the top scholar building has become very famous in Kyoto recently.
The two of them came again. When they went in and asked, the private rooms were full, and even the tables in the lobby were gone.
The waiter smiled and said, "I'm sorry, you two. The shop has been doing a lot recently. Many people have booked seats in advance. You two are late and you really have no seats now."
Hearing this, Xiao Hongmian and Chu Ze looked at each other, feeling helpless.
Especially Xiao Hongmian, she was a little embarrassed. After all, she said she wanted to treat her to dinner, but there was no seat after she arrived.
"Sorry, I didn't expect it to be so popular. Let's change the place. I know there is a Dingzhou dish that is good. How about we go and try it?" Xiao Hongmian said to Chu Ze.
But as soon as she finished speaking, before Chu Ze could answer, a girl's voice came from behind her!
"Sister Xiao!"
Chu Ze and Xiao Hongmian turned their heads at the same time.
I saw four or five young people coming towards me, both men and women.
There is also someone Chu Ze also knows, Zhao Jizhe!
But he fell at the end of the team. It was obvious that he was not an important figure in this team!
A girl with handsome facial features ran out in the team: "Sister Xiao, why don't you go in? I heard that the dishes in this restaurant are delicious."
"Your Highness Qingxuan, the store is full and there is no seat!" Xiao Hongmian said helplessly.
Zhao Qingxuan took Xiao Hongmian's hand and smiled, "That's a coincidence. Today, Jizhe treated him and decided to set up the biggest private room. Sister Xiao might as well come together."
It was obviously not her treat, but she completely took the initiative and said she wanted to invite Chu Ze and Xiao Hongmian.
Xiao Hongmian looked at Chu Ze.
It is obviously asking for Chu Ze's meaning.
Chu Ze narrowed his eyes slightly, shook his head and said, "It's still not possible."
He didn't mean to eat and drink freely.
At this moment, Zhao Jizhe stood up and stepped forward and smiled, "Sister Qingxuan said, Miss Xiao and Mr. Chu should go in together. Mr. Chu gave me those advice last time, and I also said I would invite you out for fun.
Today, we just happened to be familiar with each other. These are my royal brothers and sisters!"
The royal family will prosper and prosper.
Chu Ze opened the Eye of Root and the Eye of Understanding.
Looking around, most of these royal children have good talents.
But there is nothing particularly outstanding.
But when Chu Ze's eyes swept over Zhao Jizhe, he was stunned!
Because Zhao Jizhe's roots have become the seventh grade!
Compared with the last sixth grade root bone, it has improved the first grade!
This guy seems to have obtained a genius treasure to improve his roots and bones.
However, it is normal. After all, his father is the third prince Yongxiu and his mother's family is a wealthy merchant. Although for the royal family, his identity is somewhat unpredictable, he has strong financial resources, so it is normal for him to get some precious pills.
Chu Ze waved his hand and said, "It's still not possible!"
"Come on! Brother Chu, it's a rare chance to meet you today. If you don't come, wouldn't you give me face? I also want to ask Miss Xiao and you for some advice? You are all my great summer heroes, and I can have dinner with you.
, That's my honor!" Zhao Jizhe said with a smile.
At this time, Zhao Qingxuan rolled his eyes and complained: "Can you not speak so stingy? Sister Xiao, we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's have a meal together."
Seeing her pestering her, Xiao Hongmian looked at Chu Ze again and said helplessly: "Why don't we get together today? It's also a friend."
Seeing this scene, Chu Ze couldn't say more, and just agreed with a smile.
After entering, several people were led to the largest private room.
Chu Ze also met the people present under Zhao Jizhe's introduction.
They are basically the emperor's grandchildren.
Among them, Zhao Qingxuan is the daughter of the third prince, that is, Zhao Jizhe's sister, and the rest are also the children of each prince.
All are royal bloodlines.
Then everyone sat down and started chatting.
Chu Ze was not familiar with anyone at this dinner, and with these people being relatively sensitive, Chu Ze chose to talk less and eat more food!
I am also observing some of the situation on the field!
Zhao Qingxuan and Xiao Hongmian were the center of the banquet.
Basically, everyone talked about the two of them. Zhao Jizhe not only did not have the attitude of treating the host, but instead served tea and water frequently, which was extremely eye-catching.
But when it comes to the dishes themselves, the dishes from Zhuangyuanlou are still pretty good.
I used a lot of frying methods, and the dishes I made tend to be fresh and fragrant.
It's quite in line with Chu Ze's taste.
These young people also feel good when eating.
Fried stuff will never be too unpalatable.
Of course, when it comes to the fineness of the production, it is definitely impossible to compare with Chinese dishes.
But everything has a development process.
This is inevitable.
After all, the Chinese dishes that Chu Ze eats have been circulating for many years and have formed a complete system of mature dishes.
Chu Ze turned into a transparent person, just listening to them talking.
On the contrary, Zhao Jizhe chatted with Chu Ze from time to time.
Compared to Zhao Qingxuan, he is also a marginal figure.
After a meal for an hour, he was full of wine and full of food. Zhao Qingxuan stood up and greeted the royal family, hugged Xiao Hongmian's arm, and together they came out of the top scholar building. After the top scholar building, both sides separated!
"You are very familiar with her?" Chu Ze asked curiously.
"When I was a child, I followed the eldest princess all year round. Sometimes the eldest princess would go to Tianlongyuan to teach martial arts, so I am familiar with these royal children." Xiao Hongmian said truthfully.
Chu Ze looked at their leaving figures and asked curiously: "Has Zhao Jizhe always been like this?"
"Ah? How about it?" Xiao Hongmian didn't understand Chu Ze's meaning.
Chu Ze thought for a while and said, "It's so smooth that you can do it!"
Xiao Hongmian glanced at him and asked, "What do you think?"
Chu Ze laughed: "It seems that it's not something I can do from the bottom of the day!
"Of course, this child was quite stubborn when he was a child. He was bullied a lot in Tianlongyuan, and then he gradually became like this."
Hearing this, Chu Ze sighed slightly.
There are worlds where there are people. If it is not for life, who would like to live in a humble way? What's more, he is the son of the third prince.
Chu Ze said curiously: "Is anyone bullied in Tianlong Garden? Is there anyone who cares about it?"
Xiao Hongmian shook his head and said, "Someone cares about it, but in the final analysis, it is just a matter between children, and they are all royal children. How severe can the punishment be? Children who are punished will retaliate again! Time long
Then, that's it."
After she said that, she turned around and looked at Chu Ze with a pair of wonderful eyes, full of expectations: "Let Master Deng learn a few more dishes next time, the dishes in this restaurant are just the same."
Xiao Hongmian still prefers to eat Chinese delicacies.
"Okay, I'll tell you when he practices!"
Chu Ze agreed.
Then he looked at Xiao Hongmian and smiled, "But remember, you still owe me a meal. Today's meal was not what you invited."
"No problem! If you want to go to Kyoto, you can choose whatever restaurant you want!"
Xiao Hongmian is still very rich.
The two parted!
And that night, another massacre occurred in Kyoto!
The whole family is still dead and the children at home are missing.
In the palace, Emperor Xia's face was deep and deep!
In Gyeonggi-do, Ma Weilai, the chief inspector Cao Da knelt in front of him.
"Waste, all TM are waste! By this time, there is no clue. What are you doing for food!"
Emperor Xia was really angry.
There have been four consecutive family massacres, and the Spring Festival is approaching.
The entire Kyoto is still under curfew, but it turns out to be useless.
Cao Da lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
Ma Weilai bowed and said, "Your Majesty, according to my opinion, the number of patrols is still not enough at present. I suggest that all the imperial guards in Kyoto join the patrol team!"
"Fart! Kyoto is so big, and it's useless to patrol many people. Ordinary soldiers can't find it when facing the masters of the Star-Zhexing Realm!" Emperor Xia squirted out angrily!
This is the reason why he did not let the imperial commander get criticized.
He was not sure about the opponent's skills at the beginning, so he ordered people to strengthen the patrol.
But when he found out that the other party was a martial artist in the Star Picking Realm, he knew that ordinary imperial guards had little effect. Under the cover of night, those imperial guards could not find enemies with such a big gap in cultivation.
Although the Great Xia court also had Star-Picking Realm masters, there were many even Moon-Eclipse Realm masters.
But these people are only a few after all, even if they are all scattered, it will be a drop in the bucket for the entire Kyoto.
There were four consecutive cases, and the crimes were committed in a very scattered place.
It also seems to have no connection.
"Cao Da, I ask you, you really have no clues?"
Cao Da knew that he had to say something at this time, so he whispered: "I can only make some speculations!"
"explain!"
Cao Da raised his head and said seriously: "First of all, the criminal chose to commit crimes in Kyoto, which is extremely risky. I promised to say that with his skills, the risk of committing crimes is much smaller! And this person has been working in Kyoto for a long time.
There are four family massacres, but they still don’t leave, so he has a high probability of not being able to leave Kyoto.”
"Either this person's family business is in Kyoto, or this person is an official in the court!"
Emperor Xia sat back on the collapse and said coldly: "Continue!"
Cao Da said in a deep voice: "I have thought that the criminal may have just been instructed by someone to do this case, but whether the person who committed the crime was himself or someone to be instructed, there must be a local Kyoto.
People are behind the scenes.”
"This person's methods are cruel. Every time he commits a crime, he will definitely destroy the whole family. He has his skills. Some people have no need to kill them. For example, some sleeping servants. If he is bloodthirsty, why don't he be with his neighbor next door?
Kill them together? Then there is only one possibility, that is, he is covering up something! Some things that can expose clues!"
"Since you don't even let go of the servants, it means that even the servants may know something!"
"I thought again, if he plundered children, if there were specific conditions, would he need to use some means to determine the candidate? So he might have been to the home of the victim before."
"Or it's not that the murderer came, but that he might have other helpers."
"But I have asked my neighbors around me, and some have never seen anyone go to the victims, and some have also said I have met some acquaintances and strangers, but I have already checked them and there is no suspicion! In other words, this crime is committed.
People may have been infiltrated into the victim's home when people were scarce in the morning and evening. Or they had some very obvious characteristics in this attacker! They were afraid of being seen, so they had to silence them."
"So I have recently focused on checking some suspicious people in the morning and evening, but I haven't found it yet."
Cao Da reported some of his speculations to Emperor Xia.
There are many things he can't be sure of.
Emperor Xia frowned and said, "The last time the patrol soldiers discovered him, did they discover what did they find?"
Cao Da quickly said, "I have asked, when the patrol soldiers found him, they only saw a figure holding the child from a distance, but did not see the front, so they did not find any abnormality. The distance between the two sides was very far, so they chased him.
Not enough. Moreover, the man is very skilled and very fast, and he is not able to chase after him by ordinary soldiers."
Emperor Xia looked at Cao Da and said coldly: "I have talked together for a long time, but there is still no substantial progress at all?"
"I will find the mage at this time as soon as possible and arrest him!"
"Hmph, you'd better get faster. My patience is limited! Since you say that this person may have a family business in Kyoto or an official in the court, then remember that in all cases, there are
If you dare to stop, I promise you to take action first and then report, and to capture evil people first! Before the New Year, if you can’t catch people, you can prepare to go to Tianzhu to celebrate the New Year!”
"Yes!" Cao Da lowered his head, his back covered in sweat!
"If it's done well, I promise you a second-class baron!"
When Cao Da heard this, he was ecstatic!
Ma Weilai on the side was a little jealous. He didn't get a title, but Cao Da had the chance to be awarded a title.
In fact, Emperor Xia was also helpless, and he still recognized Cao Da's ability.
However, people like Cao Da are special positions and cannot be mentioned. Only by putting him in the position of the captain will it best suit Emperor Xia's wishes. If he is allowed to be an official, whether he is a civil servant or a military general, he will essentially give up the
His abilities are not available.
If you don’t advance, you will be rewarded.
The title is undoubtedly the most suitable one. Cao Da has been in this position for many years and has made many achievements, so Emperor Xia decided that if he really did it, he would give him a small title.
Although it is only the lowest-level title and can only be passed down for one generation, it is enough to make Cao Da extremely excited!
This means that if his future children want to enter the army, as long as their cultivation level is similar, they will easily be able to get into a position!
Perhaps from now on, we will step into the ranks of nobles!
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Liu Qianshan was standing in the study at this time, as if he was stunned and his hands were even trembling.
"Where is my ink? Where is the cinnabar? Where is the wolf's brush? Why is there nothing left?"
Liu Qianshan roared angrily: "Come here! Call Liu Changfeng for me!"
"Your Majesty, the Third Young Master and the Miss went out earlier."
Liu Qianshan clenched his fists and blue veins burst out on his forehead.
These things, my incompetent son didn't know anything about them!
Why did you suddenly get enlightened?
Did you see the price of these things outside?
Until this time, Liu Qianshan did not say that he doubted his precious daughter.
And in the city, Liu Changfeng proudly came out of the cultural relics shop, holding a stack of thick silver notes in his hand!
"Haha! It's so good. The old man dared to put so many things outside. He was so crazy!" Liu Changfeng put the silver note on his face and sniffed it hard.
The taste of money is so good!
Liu Huier looked at her younger brother and said speechlessly: "Why did you steal all his things? You are so cruel!"
Liu Changfeng rolled his eyes: "You don't know. The old man is now guarding me. I steal a piece of ink this time and I will be beaten when I go back. I guess the ink cinnabar will be put away next time.
I stole all the things, and I was beaten when I went back. I could get more money, so why didn’t I take them all?"
"But your father will be even more angry like this, and you will be even more ruthless."
Liu Changfeng approached Liu Huier and laughed in a low voice, "Tell you a secret, the old man knows martial arts. He didn't hurt me seven years ago. I just pretended to be very painful every time, and screamed loudly, making him happy.
It feels good. So, it’s no difference whether he beats ruthlessly or not.”
Liu Huier: "."
Liu Changfeng jokingly said, "And I'm going to invite Chu Ze this time. You can't tell me to bring me a 3,000 taels of silver, right? You have been to the place where Biliu Yuntian, and you said you don't have money in your pocket.
I have brought enough, and I have gone to search for it. Isn’t my face lost to you?”
Liu Huier nodded in agreement with this statement
When she thought of seeing Chu Ze, her heart beat faster and her face turned slightly red...
Liu Changfeng saw her like this.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: "My sister, who are you not good to like? Have you fallen in love with Chu Ze? He is the son-in-law of the Duke's Mansion. Do you think my father will agree? I'll steal more things, so it's considered to be the first exercise.
The old man is, otherwise I will be afraid that the old man will be pissed to death by then.”
As the saying goes, bystanders are clear. Although Liu Changfeng is ignorant, he is definitely not a fool.
I have already seen Liu Huier's thoughts.
But Liu Huier herself didn't even recognize it.
He just ignored this matter and pretended not to know it. Anyway, he had money to spend it!
He even had the idea of watching the fun. He was very curious. Liu Huier, who had always been the flesh of his father's heart, suddenly gave him an expression of an old man who came from the blue. It must be very exciting!
On the other hand, Xiao Hongmian came to the noodle stall.
It was getting late at this time, and there were no customers on the noodle stall.
"Sister Xiao, do you eat noodles?"
Nuannuan asked Xiao Hongmian with a smile.
This time, Xiao Hongmian ignored her and didn't hear it at all. She walked past her and came to the noodle stall owner.
Nuannuan was not disappointed that she was neglected, and she still had a smile on her face.
When he came to the noodle stall owner, Xiao Hongmian spoke: "Senior Dugu."
"Yes." The noodle stall owner was still looking at the book "My affairs with the rich family" in his hand
Xiao Hongmian was no longer surprised by his appearance, but just said, "The eldest princess asked me to bring you a letter."
While speaking, he took out an envelope from his arms!
The noodle stall owner raised his head, a flash of light burst out in his eyes. He immediately stood up, put his hand on his body for several times before reaching out to take the envelope!
