Chapter 45: Unrestrained people can't help themselves

"Who are you?" Jiang Shan asked not very politely.

Seeing that the other party had wine in his hand, his attitude immediately changed 180 degrees: "Friend!"

Seeing his eyes shining, Chu Lingyue pursed her lips and said, "Want it?"

From the moment he saw the wine, Jiang Shan's eyes widened. He no longer thought about who the visitor was, he just wanted to take the wine and drink it.

Just as he was about to reach out to take it, Chu Lingyue hid the wine behind his back: "I have more wine that is better than this. If you want it, you have to chat with me."

Hearing this, Jiang Shan laughed out loud, then glanced at the person in front of him with a disdainful gaze, scratched it and then answered:

"Little miss, I know very well what your plan is. Although I love wine, I love this miserable life even more. I don't have anything you want to know here. You can leave!"

Chu Lingyue was speechless.

This person smelled of alcohol when he came out. She thought that he would be good at talking to each other when he was drunk, but she didn't expect...

"I'm too arrogant." She laughed at herself and raised the wine in front of Jiangshan with one hand, "You sneaked into Lingyin Building the night before yesterday and stole a lot of things from He Zhiqing. The people in Lingyin Building have already reported it to the police. If you don't want to be arrested,

If you catch me, please cooperate with me."

The old man was very vigilant. Chu Lingyue thought he would not succeed. Unexpectedly, he became furious after hearing this:

"What is stealing? That bastard He Zhiqing is my apprentice! What happened if I took something from him? How dare they report it to the official? They are a bunch of beasts worse than pigs and dogs!"

Chu Lingyue's eyebrows flashed as soon as these words came out, pretending to be confused while trying to understand: "What kind of master are you? He Zhiqing knows a lot."

Jiang Shan rolled his eyes at her, took away the monkey stuffing and went into the house: "Isn't the imperial court afraid to use a hawk like yours?"

His words made Chu Lingyue really confused for a moment whether they were derogatory or complimentary.

Before entering the house, Jiang Shan grabbed a piece of wood from the window lattice and pulled it. A loud rumbling sound was immediately heard in the house.

Fortunately, the sawmill was still working, and the huge noise completely blocked the sound in the room.

Soon after, Jiang Shan opened the door, and what caught Chu Lingyue's eyes were gears of different sizes and types that were constantly rotating. They drove various mechanisms and made everything in progress.

This is simply a visual feast.

Such an advanced steampunk style left Chu Lingyue with only one message in her mind.

Jiangshan is Zhang Jianzi!

According to what Lu Chenyu said, he was a bad old man who knew the art of mechanism but was addicted to alcohol.

Jiang Shan's words, deeds, and skills are completely matched with his!

"Is Mr. Zhang the legendary spymaster?" she asked.

Zhang Jianzi was not as surprised as she expected. Instead, he scoffed and entered the room, minding his own business messing with the messy things on the console.

Seeing his satisfied smile while drinking and operating, Chu Lingyue couldn't help but think of other things.

He Zhiqing must have been learning the art of mechanism from Zhang Jianzi during the almost one year since he disappeared. The secret mechanism room in the Lingyin Tower, which Zhang Jianzi could come and go with freely, must have been designed by him.

Furthermore, Zhang Jianzi has designed so many things as a spy, and is so mysterious that there is no record of it in the Mixin Pavilion. However, he became a master and apprentice with He Zhiqing... But judging from his attitude, the two masters and apprentices probably broke up.

Already.

Thinking of this, Chu Lingyue closed the door and asked bluntly:

"Did you have your current false identity before He Zhiqing came to your door, or did you have it after you parted ways with him?"

The other party said nothing and took a few more sips of wine.

Seeing his delay in responding, her tone became even calmer:

"You chose to stay in the most dangerous place while hiding your name. Is it because you wanted to hide from the Empress Dowager Tang?"

He Zhiqing had served the Empress Dowager of the Tang Dynasty for many years, so it was definitely not for the sake of inheriting the art of learning from him. He was so obsessed with the art of organ, how could he tolerate people with evil intentions?

What's more, he doesn't bother to make a living for power, otherwise he wouldn't just leave the world with the title of a spy master and then eliminate this person.

"Hiccup~!"

Zhang Jianzi burped, looked at Chu Lingyue for a long time, shook his shoulders and laughed: "You little girl, you talk so much."

After saying this, he rolled up on the console and lay down, holding the wine jar in his arms, laughing so hard that he couldn't open his eyes: "Poor me, Zhang, no one can succeed in my unique skills! You should know that there is a saying that tells people to be outsiders.

There are people, there is a sky outside the sky?"

Zhang Jianzi later said a lot, and Chu Lingyue listened carefully to every word.

From the beginning, I was desperately trying to get some clues, but in the end I had nothing but infinite admiration and respect for him.

But from beginning to end, she never had a conversation with him.

"I like the wine you brought very much. You are my friend. Just go away and don't come to me again. I will move."

These are the last two sentences Zhang Jianzi said.

After leaving here, Chu Lingyue's inner turmoil could not calm down for a long time.

It turns out that such a carefree and unrestrained person can't help himself all the time?

After sorting out the news he had learned, he just ordered someone to be sent to the Yulong Division when Qiu Ri arrived.

"Grandma, there was another commotion in the library. When Miss Yun heard that something happened to the prince, she cried and shouted inside, and finally jumped down from the building... But luckily she only broke one leg."

After receiving this news, Chu Lingyue arrived at Beiyuan soon.

Before I even entered the door, I heard Yun Shuangwan crying.

Seeing her coming, Yun Shuangwan immediately stopped talking, but she was still out of breath, "Sister Princess, are you here to see my joke?"

Glancing at her purple and turned-in legs, Chu Lingyue dismissed everyone in the room and said, "You are quite well informed."

Knowing that she was talking about the new housekeeper sent home, Yun Shuangwan had a bad breath stuck in his throat:

"It doesn't matter if you know the news sooner or later. Isn't it better than my sister's heart of stone? It's been a few days since the news about my brother's accident came back. Have you ever taken any action? He treats you so well, do you really not care at all?"

"He has lost his memory. Shouldn't you think of a way to make him remember you forever?" Chu Lingyue half-smiled, then put her hand on her leg.

After confirming that the other party really had a broken bone, she said lightly: "There are few women in Prince Jing's Mansion, but there are many women outside. His amnesia cannot be cured. Some people forget it for the rest of their lives."

Yun Shuangwan gasped.

If she hadn't been worried about being forgotten, she wouldn't have chosen to escape by jumping off the building so that she could regain her presence after Chu Banshi came back.

"What do you mean?"

"It's okay that I forgot. I'm afraid I not only forgot, but also admitted my mistake." After laughing, Chu Lingyue gave her another blow in the heart:

"The doctor in this house is really getting more and more outrageous. Although there is no harmony between you and me, it is his duty to save lives and heal the wounded. He actually takes the money given by the palace and does not do what he is responsible for? You are so injured.

It’s great, but he didn’t give you any tips?”

Du Ma was sent to the palace by Yun Shuangwan after all his efforts. With his ability, it would be easy for Yun Shuangwan to avoid pain and recover as quickly as possible.

But he chose to let her rest.

Judging from the fact that he helped Tang Shiling get out of trouble and Yun Shuangwan was forced to find another way out, he chose another partner.

Yun Songwan, who realized that his master had not treated him properly, was now in a very low mood.

But not long after, she made a shocking statement: "As my half-time brother's concubine, shouldn't I be more worried that he recognizes the wrong person? Without him and the position of concubine, there will really be no one behind my sister."

.”

Turns out he is a love brain?

Chu Lingyue's eyes turned cold, she took back the Jade Breath Narrow Bone Pill she had held in her hand, stood up and left: "In the entire Prince Jing's Mansion, there is no one else who should worry most except you."

Although this Yun Sangwan is not a good weapon, it is not useless at all. It would be great to let her act like a demon and make trouble with Tang Shiling.

"Ah Yue, you are here, something happened!"

On this day, as soon as Chu Lingyue came to the hospital as Jin Yue, Liu Qinian said worriedly:

"Yesterday, the Zhang Chamber of Commerce issued an order to raise the price of Quan Pharmaceutical. I calculated it carefully and found that the price of almost every medicinal material has increased five times! In addition, they also proposed that if you want to obtain the medicinal materials at the original price, you must

Complete the reservation through the assessment of their chamber of commerce, otherwise you will have to spend five times the price to purchase goods from them!"

As soon as these words entered Chu Lingyue's ears, she immediately became murderous.

The Zhang family's business of monopolizing medicinal materials and turning the pharmaceutical industry into huge profits is abominable. Now they are raising prices and influencing it at all levels. Isn't it just using other people's lives to make money?

Especially now, looking around, there are only a handful of medical clinics in the entire capital that have not joined the Zhang Chamber of Commerce, but they are more or less oriented towards them.

The Zhang family made this decision because they were sure that Miao Chun Tang would open a new store, and they had no connections or background.

They spend so much effort and regard other people's lives as nothing, just to deal with this "other" who has frequent conflicts with them and makes them lose face many times. It is simply crazy!

"Our medical center has run out of medicinal materials. Ah Yue, what do you think we should do?" Liu Qinian asked aggrievedly.

Suppressing the anger in her heart, Chu Lingyue lowered the corners of her lips, suddenly smiled again, and quietly leaned into her ear: "Have you forgotten that Princess Jing is my friend?"

Before Liu Qinian came to his senses, she winked at Shopkeeper Jia and went to the backyard together.

That night, Chu Lingyue took the investigated sources of goods and changed her identity, starting from the small merchants and hawkers, ending at the middle level, searching one by one, and finally came to the outside of a large house.

"Why don't you look at what time it is now? Who is coming to visit you now? Are you sick?"

The boy at the door rubbed his eyes and cursed angrily. Just as he was pushing the man to report, he saw an elegant young man getting out of the car, accompanied by a group of guards with swords.

Although he didn't wear any gold or silver, his accessories and clothes were full of free money.

Just the pendant on your waist is priceless black jade!

"You, who are you?" The boy was very conscious now, but he couldn't quite recognize who the other person was.

"I'm Lin Xiao, could you please inform your master that I have a business that I want to talk to him about."

Mr. Wen had just finished clearing the account books and had not been lying down for long. He was very unhappy when he was called. After thinking about it to make sure that this person was not in his memory, he immediately called the boy and told the person outside to get out.

Unexpectedly, the young man panicked and said, "Sir, you are confused. In the entire Luo City, there are rich and powerful people named Lin. Who else is there except that man from the Yulong Division?"
