Chang’an’s First Beauty

Chapter 4 offend

On the seventh day of October, three quarters of the hour.

—”Search me, no bottle is allowed to fall.”

As soon as the voice fell, the guards of Jingzhao Mansion immediately surrounded the Baixiang Pavilion.

Lu Yan stepped across the threshold, fiddled with the cuffs, and said to Shen Zhen, “I also ask Miss Shen to take out all the scented powders on the table in the pavilion and hidden in the warehouse, and place them one by one. ”

Listening to the ear-piercing “Zang” word, Shen Zhen frowned slightly, and slowly stood up and said, “Master Lu, what does this mean?”

Lu Yan looked as usual, and said according to the rules: “A guard next to the officer was unconscious after coming here yesterday. The reason is still unclear. He came here to investigate suspects as usual. If the girl’s powder is okay.” After speaking for a while, he pointed to the outside and said, “The people outside will leave immediately.”

After Shen Zhen listened, her heart sank.

Yesterday it was so easy to send away those who demanded debts. How can you provoke people from the government today? I have experienced home ransacking and scenes like Shen Zhen’s outside. I am particularly resistant, for fear of rebirth.

She stepped forward and cautiously said: “Is there a search warrant on Master Lu?” The reason Shen Zhen asked this was because she knew that the government would not issue a search warrant until there was no definite evidence.

Without a search warrant, she naturally has the right not to let them in.

Shen Zhen’s unwilling look of cooperation fell in Lu Yan’s eyes, and it became an act of fear of sin.

He glanced at Yang Zong, and Yang Zong immediately handed out a search warrant.

Below the text, is his eloquent word-Lu Yan.

“Ms. Shen will hand over the key to the warehouse. The officer will find someone to help you move it. After all, Jingzhao Mansion has a lot of affairs and can’t afford to delay it.” After finishing speaking, he waved his hand before Shen Zhen could answer.

The guards outside broke in.

Shen Zhen looked at the search warrant in his hand, secretly worried, couldn’t help but use some force to crumple the paper.

Seeing this, Lu Yan spoke again: “Official properties must not be damaged.”

Shen Zhen froze, his fingers stuck in place.

Knowing that the other party had made perfect preparations, she wanted to hide, but she couldn’t hide, so she turned and walked back to the table, opened the drawer, took out a bunch of keys, and handed them to Lu Yan.

Lu Yan took it, took seven steps forward, and opened the door of the warehouse. He ordered the guards to move quickly, while he stayed beside Shen Zhen and looked at her.

I’m afraid she will make some psychedelic sorcery again.

After a while, they carried a few large boxes to the center of the room.

One of the guards stood up and bowed and said, “My lord, the storeroom is empty, and the subordinate knocked on the wall. There is no other secret room.”

Lu Yan nodded, lowered his head and looked down at Shen Zhen and said, “You answer truthfully, that’s all?”

Shen Zhen raised his head to look at him, his eyes open, “Originally there were some, but they were smashed yesterday.”

Lu Yan recalled the scene of yesterday, “Yes”.

After a while, the three doctors walked in. They opened the bottles and cans one by one, smelled, crushed, smelled, and crushed. After all the investigations were completed, an entire hour had passed.

They reported in turn from left to right, “Return to your lord, these flat jars are good rouge powder, which is used for women’s makeup, and the shallow mouth bottles are perfumed hair oil. Here are some freshly made ones. Mouth fat after coming out.”

Another said: “My side are all fans from afar, official fans from Hangzhou, etc.”

The last person has the most variety. He speaks slowly, and slowly said, “I have all the original spices, including dangmen, navel incense, cinnamon, chrysanthemum, jasmine, and some incense sticks, pan incense, tower incense, and incense. Pillow… Besides, there is nothing else.” (1)

As Shao Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, Lu Yan naturally knows some pharmacology. After listening with patience, he can’t help frowning, and said solemnly, “But did you check it carefully?”

The three nodded together, and said in unison: “I’ve checked myself.”

Lu Yan obviously didn’t believe this result. He swept away Shen Zhen’s solemn expression and slightly trembling hands, and he felt that there must be something missing.

After a moment of silence, Lu Yan turned his head to the crowd and said, “You go out first. You can’t let anyone in without my order.”

After everyone retreated, for a while, only two of them were left in the house.

Lu Yan quickly surveyed the whole room, and finally his eyes fell on a hollow sandalwood low cabinet.

There are two fans on it, one is a pu fan embroidered with begonia flowers, and the other is a folding fan with a picture of Jun’an Waterside Pavilion.

He took two steps forward, took down the folding fan, and snapped the fan together. He turned around again.

Shen Zhen thought that this was the end just now. Seeing Lu Yan walked towards him again, he couldn’t help but step back and said, “My lord, what are you going to do?”

Lu Yan didn’t say much to her, only using his long stature and the aura of a long-time official to force her into the corner.

In a blink of an eye, the dark purple official uniform was only half a foot away from Shen Zhen.

His voice was thin, like a cool breeze that was unkind, “Miss Shen cooperated with the officer for a body search and raised her arms.”

Shen Zhen is a daughter of the Hou Mansion. It’s unusual for her daughter’s family to see the official. She is afraid of going back. She still has a trace of reason. “I see Master Lu, it’s not like coming to do justice. Yes, it seems to have come to insult me ​​an unarmed woman.”

Listening to her secretly changing her concept, Lu Yan couldn’t help but sneered: “If the officer wants to insult you, he has a million ways to do it, don’t play tricks, lift it up.”

Although Shen Zhen was afraid, he still bit the bullet and said, “Is there no female officer in Jingzhao Mansion?”

Lu Yan said nothing, but the cold and aggressive eyes were telling her-don’t force me to do it.

Jingzhao Mansion does have female officials who can be dispatched, but sometimes in order to hurry up and not lose the evidence, the chief will also take care of it himself. Even if there are differences between men and women, things can still be substituted.

Shen Zhenping sucked up his head and looked at him. He didn’t want to lift his arms anyway, his pointed nails secretly pressed hard, and the flesh on the palms of his palms pressed red marks.

Lu Yan took a short step forward, and the two of them were about to post them together. The bitter smell of Lu Yan’s body completely broke Shen Zhen’s line of defense. She closed her eyes and raised her arms.

Fingertips trembled slightly, and my heart was ashamed.

Lu Yan knew that she was a woman and had not yet come out of the cabinet. Seeing her cooperating in the search, he also accepted the threat of intimidation and leaned toward her with a folding fan.

As soon as the fan bone touched her, she was like a cooked crab, completely red.

Across her clothes and a fan, Lu Yan could still feel her trembling.

Lu Yan had no distractions, using the fan bones against her raised arm, following her outline, all the way down, his hands were not light or heavy, and he would pat one or two from time to time, searching from beginning to end, one by one. careless.

Only those two places, he thought about it and didn’t touch them.

“Turn around.”

Shen Zhen bit her lip tightly, for fear of making any sound.

The whole room was left with the sound of moving footsteps and the rustling of clothes.

She turned her back to him, even more disturbed. But because he avoided the place she was most afraid of him touching, he felt that he shouldn’t have become interested, so he whispered to him, “Sir, can you do it faster?”

Lu Yan used the fan bones against her back and searched all the way up until her neck suddenly stopped.

The fragrance was overflowing, and he suddenly remembered the beauty mole that was born in his dream.

Everything in the dream wandered in front of him again, and he awkwardly, like the bridegroom official lifted the red hijab, lifted her three thousand green silk with the handle of the fan.

He saw that the mole in front of him gradually overlapped with the one in the dream.

The positions are exactly the same, all born on the neck of her bully Saixue.

Lu Yan’s expression was slightly dazed, and he suddenly withdrew his hand.

Seeing that the shadow surrounding her suddenly left, Shen Zhen turned back instantly.

With those twinkling eyes, she stared at him motionlessly, saying every word: “Master Lu, have you finished the investigation?” If her lower eyelashes are not longer, I am afraid that the big drops of golden beans will be smashed like this. Down.

It’s not just why, Lu Yan looked at her eyes suddenly, and his heart suddenly hurt, and it was the same kind of pain. He resisted, clenched his fist to his lips and said, “It’s done.”

“What’s wrong?”

“Not yet.”

Shen Zhen’s hair was messed up by him just now. Her eyes were red, and she plucked him, and asked: “Dare to ask my sir, if there is a problem with the powder here, then why, Master Lu, you have no problem, you Didn’t you also come yesterday?”

As soon as the words fell, even if it was Lu Yan who was the most adept at face-to-face, his heart couldn’t help but follow.

But after all this man has been an official for many years, it is natural that Shen Zhen can’t ask him in a few sentences.

He looked down at her with a pair of black pupils, and instantly passed her sight, “It is the people’s duty to cooperate with the government in handling the case. The officer not only showed you the search warrant, but also cleared your suspicion. What is Miss Shen’s dissatisfaction? ?”

Shen Zhen said nothing.

Even though he was full of dissatisfaction, he still didn’t dare to confront him.

Lu Yan looked at her little face, her chest hurt so badly, he walked past her, and said in a deep voice, “The officer has other things to deal with. There will be two people outside to help Miss Shen carry these boxes. Go back.” After that, he walked around a red lacquered wood screen and left.

—

After returning to the Yamen, Lu Yan discovered that he was still holding the folding fan in his hand.

Above the fan bones, there seemed to be a refreshing fragrance.

He closed the case file irritably, holding a dark fire in his heart.

If she doesn’t have any problems, what are the successive dreams? Is it possible that what the Taoist priests said is the memory of the past life?

joke.

He was thinking, and it was evening.

Today, the street was lively, red silk was spread all over the floor, cheers and laughter continued, and the gongs and drums were beaten constantly. Several children bounced around, pointing to the sedan chair and shouting: Bride! Look! It’s the bride!

Lu Yan’s submission here hasn’t finished yet, but he feels that the outside is too noisy, his face is dark, his head is covered with dark clouds, and he can’t wait to throw all the ghostly and howling children home.

It was getting louder and louder outside, and the matchmaker’s voice was going up into the clouds.

Immediately, Lu Yan raised his head and threw the wolf hae in his hand at the pen holder.

At this moment, Jing Zhaofu Yin Zheng Zhonglian and another young Yin Sun Xu walked in.

Sun Shaoyin bowed his hands to Lu Yan and said with a smile, “Master Lu is still busy?”

Lu Yan got up and responded, “Master Zheng, Master Sun.”

Zheng Zhonglian said to Lu Yan with a blushing face: “The case of the Sun family in Wannian County is finally over. It is indeed his wife who poisoned him. Her family is rich and even dare to buy it. Let me say, murder her husband. The crime is crippling, but it has now been transferred to Dali Temple. Let’s take it easy. Master Lu is fine at night. Let’s go outside for a drink?”

It is true that they were just asking like this, to be polite, after all, they asked Lu Yan to go out for a drink many times, and he mostly declined.

But also, those fireworks fields don’t really match this precious elder son.

They didn’t expect that Master Lu had put down his usual well-dressed clothes today, and said okay with a smile.

The author has something to say: (1) The content of spices comes from the paper “Research on the Production, Utilization and Trade of Plant Spices in Ancient China”

Some readers gave Lu Yan a nickname-Mr. Lu.
