Chapter 69 (1/2)
Cha Jin was waiting for the following, but Lu Kang suddenly said, ”excuse me, Mr. Cha, please check it out. You must destroy the source of the poison as soon as possible. If you have an emergency, please leave first!”
After that, she left in a hurry without waiting for Cha Jin to come back.
When he saw Yin Zhikang, he asked, ”did you come back to the case?”
Lu Kang shook his head, went to Yin Xun and took out the bamboo pipe: ”master, look at this.”
Yin Xun looked down and said, ”what's the matter?”
”The top of this bamboo is covered with poison. Ma Lianzhou killed himself with this bamboo in prison. The material of this bamboo tube is very unique and can be recognized by the master?”
When Yin Xun heard him say that, he looked at it carefully, and immediately said to him, ”tortoise shell bamboo?”
Lu Kang nodded his head and said, ”one year ago, Wu paid tribute to ten bamboo beetles, eight of which were planted in the imperial garden, and the remaining two. One was awarded by his majesty to the master and the other to the king of Southern Jin. Do you remember that? ”
Yin Xun thought for a moment, his face changed slightly, and he nodded.
”As far as my subordinates know, although it is easy to survive, it is difficult to reproduce. So far, there should be only these ten bamboos in the territory of Li state.” Lu Kang said, lowering his voice, ”there are not many people who can enter the palace, the ninth palace, or the Jinnan palace to get bamboo.”
Yin Xun nodded his head, and suddenly remembered the letter he had seen in Malian Prefecture, holding his chin and saying, ”is it really him? But what is the significance of his selling cold food powder in Luoyang? ”
Lu Kang asked quickly, ”the master already knows who it is.”
Just as Yin Xun was about to tell him, suddenly he heard a sound of footwork, and Mo Ying came in with a letter and said, ”master, your majesty sent someone to send an urgent secret letter.”
After the secret letter was opened, the vigorous and powerful handwriting was indeed his majesty's. There were only two words on it: ”come back quickly.”.
Yan Xun was a little surprised and asked Mo Ying, ”you went back to Xuchang to see your majesty. Did he ask me to investigate the case of cold food powder before going back?”
Mo Ying nodded: ”Your Majesty said so.”
”Is he in a hurry?”
Mo Ying shook his head: ”I don't dare to guess the meaning of holy.”
Lu Kang listened to the two men and thought about it for a while. He interrupted, ”Mo Ying, did you hear any gossip when you went back to Xuchang?”
Mo Ying shook his head and nodded: ”I only had a tea break at the post station in front of Xuchang, where I heard that his majesty loved the new concubine very much, and she had been granted the title of imperial concubine within half a month.”
”Any more?” Lu Kang then asked.
Mo Ying frowned and thought for a long time, shaking his head, ”I don't know.”
Lu Kang sighs in his heart and asks Mo Ying to send a letter. As expected, he can only send a letter.
Yin Xun held the secret letter in his hand for a long time. He couldn't think about what had suddenly changed his mind for the emperor and what had happened?
Lu Kang and Mo Ying do not speak, but stare at Yin Xun, waiting for his next instruction.
For a long time, Yin Xun whispered five words: ”return to Xuchang immediately.”
Lu Kang was stunned. Many doubts sprang out. But they didn't ask them at last. Instead, he replied, ”I understand. I'm going to inform Shen Qing. By the way, do you want to take ah Qing back with you?”
”No need,” Yin Xun shook his head, ”Shen Qing stayed to protect them.”
They? Do you mean young master ah Ching and Miss Bai?
Listening to Yin Xun's words, Lu Kang's doubts disappeared. It turned out that his master didn't want to leave, but planned to go back to Xuchang and Luoyang after finishing his work.
Lu Kang pursed his lips and said with a smile: ”if the master is reluctant to give up the white girl, he can take her with him. The master of the province will toss and turn.”
Yan Xun took a cold look at him, ”many things.”
Lu Kang was particularly meek with a smile: ”yes, yes, my subordinates have a lot of things to do. I'll tell Shen Qing that he must take good care of Miss Bai and never let her master come back to see her hurt.”
After that, Lu Kang turned and left. Mo Ying looked at Yin Xun with a puzzled look on his face. Why did his master suddenly become shy? It must be an illusion.
Lu Kang went to Bai junzhuo's yard to inform Shen Qing. Just as he was talking, Bai junzhuo came out with a pot of herbal medicine and asked Lu Kang, ”I heard you outside just now that your master is going back to Xuchang?”
Lu Kang quickly replied, ”don't worry about white girl. My master will come back after finishing his work.”
”Who's worried?” Bai junzhuo mixed the herbs into the leftovers and said to him indifferently, ”I'll just ask.”
”Is that so?” Lu Kang looked at her with a smile on his face. ”My master's leaving is as short as four or five days and as long as two or three years. Miss Bai should take good care of herself. If something happens to you during this period, or if you are short of money, my master can't save you.”
Bai junhuo rolled his eyes: ”please, I'm not so useless.”
”That's good,” Lu Kang nodded with a smile, and then said intentionally or unintentionally, ”my master is expected to start at the right time.”Bai junhuo is busy feeding the rat with the mixed rat feed, and turns a deaf ear to Lu Kang's words.
Cut, it's none of her business when the man leaves. She's not going to see him off.
Yin Xun planned to stay for half a day to see if he could find something useful there. But when you were close, he didn't hear the news from there, so he had to prepare to leave Luoyang.
He was about to leave the other courtyard of the white mansion when he saw Bai junzhuo come over. Yin Xun stopped to wait for her to approach, and did not speak.
Bai junzhuo seemed angry and asked, ”do you really want to leave?”
Yin Xun nodded: ”yes.”
”Didn't you tell me before you left?” Bai Jun scorched and frowned, ”in vain, I still take you as a friend.”
