On the busiest west street in Kyoto, the hawkers kept hawking, all kinds of teahouses were full, and the voices of singing floated to their ears from afar, and there was a scene of prosperity in front of them.

Anxia sweated a little on her forehead. She wiped it with a veil and stamped her feet anxiously.

She still carried the heavy wooden card in her arms, but she could not find where the floating cloud building her master said was.

It was not until she reached the end of the street that she saw a shabby room with a few words of paint off it, which she would not have noticed had it not been for her eyesight.

Anxia hesitated and finally clenched his teeth and knocked on the door.

There was no movement, except for a lot of dust falling from the rusty locks, there was not a sound of footsteps inside.

Seeing the dark clouds gathering in the sky, the wind dispersed the fallen leaves accumulated on the ground, the sand fascinated people's eyes, and the slow footsteps came from behind the door in front of us, and every step seemed to have been measured.

The footsteps stopped behind the door.

Anxia took a few steps back, raised her hand and knocked on the door again, and whispered, "is anyone there?"

This time there was movement at last.

Someone threw a rusty key from under the door, and the sound followed with a tipsy drunkenness, as if biting a corner of the tongue.

"take the key and open it yourself."

Anxia glanced quickly left and right, then squatted down quietly, picked up the key and entered the house, which seemed to be unlocked at all.

The house was very old. As soon as it pushed the door, the dust rustled all over it. At the entrance of the courtyard stood an old bare tree. Several jackdaws stood on one foot. Anxia avoided it carefully, and a chill rose from the back of his neck.

And don't see the man who lost her key earlier.

After going around for a long time, she finally found the owner of the house in a remote wing.

There are a lot of medicinal herbs in the room, and the unknown ones are not abrupt. The fragrance of the medicine in the air is not greasy, just like the fragrance of the woman opposite the man.

After Anxia saw the famous doctor, he was stunned for a moment.

He is so young that he is not a decadent old man by word of mouth, but rather like the prince of Kyoto, whose flirtatious and unrestrained temperament is immersed in his bones.

"Sir." Anxia closed his eyes, took out the dark wooden plate from his arms, presented it with both hands, and then said, "my master invited my husband into the palace. I wonder if he can spare the time."

The name of Jiangjianxi is there, and everyone is in awe.

Jiang Jianxi raised his eyelids and saw the wooden card, and slightly raised the corner of his mouth. He glanced at the woman sitting opposite with a veil on her face. Her voice was clear and clean like a mountain spring, and she said, "tell your master that you are late today. I already have a guest here."?.

Ansha suddenly looked embarrassed and glanced at the woman who was wrapped in a black cloak with only her head exposed. Only this glance made her feel familiar.

The face and figure could not really be seen, but the hand that clung to the chess piece was as shiny as jade fiber and boneless under a little light as a layer of enamel.

Very much like the master of her family.

"in this way, I won't bother you, sir." Anxia is very measured, knowing that it is impossible to take someone back today, so she bowed down and retired.

In this way, the wooden card was placed in the middle of the chessboard, at the junction of Chu and Han, and attracted the attention of two people at the same time.

Jiangjianxi put the wooden card in his hand and played with it, and his long, jointed fingers turned carelessly, and a pair of evil eyes were full of smiles.

"the distinguished guests have come a long way today, and all they are asking for is news about clotting and dispersing blood."

The wrist under the broad black robe moved, and the woman's voice was light and undisturbed, but she picked the corner of her eye slightly, and the narrow Phoenix eyes became a noble momentum of their own. "of course, Mr. Wang told me one or two."

"Why should I tell you?" Jiangjianxi was interested and asked casually, with a clear smile on his face and a white son left behind. "how am I?" I think dignitaries should have heard of it. "

The woman with the veil was silent, then held out four fingers, said no more nonsense, and said bluntly, "4200, buy a message, what do you think, sir?"

Jiangjianxi waved his hand, stroked the wooden card and said, "Coagulation powder has long been lost and has not been born in the world for many years. If you ask me about this news, you think highly of Jiang."

The woman saw that he did not enter the appearance of oil and salt, is also a little helpless, slightly slow tone: "recently I have seen some dirty things, among which there seems to be a condensed shadow." If your husband really knows anything, can you tell me a little bit? "

There was finally some smile on the west side of Jiangjian. He slightly raised his eyebrows, sniffed the fragrance between the teas, then shook his head, swallowed the tea in his mouth, and said, "Miss Coagulation Powder, don't ask."

The woman looked like a distant mountain and did not get angry, but listened to him go on quietly.

"Jiang is incompetent and can't solve the girl's doubts." There still seemed to be a smile on the lips of Jiangjianxi, and when the sake burned through his throat, his voice suddenly dropped. "naturally, if you can't find out in Jiangmou, I'm afraid there's no one in the world who can solve the girl's doubts."

With so much nonsense, the woman was not surprised, but glanced at the tea leaves floating on the surface of the water and drew down a lot of emotions.

Since we can't reach an agreement when we talk about it now, it's really a waste of time to make this trip out of the palace.

I don't know if the man in the palace will find anything.

the loss outweighs the gain!

This covered himself up so tightly that he even slipped out of the palace with something on it, which was no doubt about Tang Zhaozhao.

Her doubts deepened little by little when she saw the fake stone stained with black blood in the royal garden, until she felt a little creepy when she thought of such vicious things as blood clotting in a trance.

This is also the reason why she can't wait to find it by herself. moreover, there are many people in the palace with mixed eyes, and it is difficult for her to ask questions about many things.

Jiangjianxi got up and made a gesture of invitation to her.

Are you trying to kick her out?

Tang Zhuozhao picked up his eyebrows, then stood up, pulled his wide black clothes with his hand, smiled gently in his eyebrows, and said, "in any case, thank you today."

Jiang Jianxi nodded noncommittally and glanced across the chessboard between the two people, on which she had fallen, which had forced him into a corner.

The style of chess is as sharp as ever!

This girl can't learn what he teaches at all. no wonder she is targeted by so many people.

Tang Huazhao coughed slightly and saw that the foot was about to step out of the small room. The last white son in Jiangjianxi's hand fell, and a thousand haze was floating in the fundus of his eyes.

"the girl is so cold that the medicine for recuperation can't be left behind." His tone was a little heavy, and he turned around and said slowly, "otherwise, there will be no cure for the medicine stone."

Tang Zhuozhao raised his arm under the broad black robe slightly, and then slowly took off his veil to reveal an ordinary woman's face.

Just that pair of eyes like the stars Ying Ying glance, everything is clear.

"Master."

Tang Zhuozhao didn't feel embarrassed about being revealed her identity. She smiled and bent her eyes and stopped at the front of Jiangjianxi. "I didn't think I could hide it from you, but I still had a fluke," she said. "

Although she called him Master, there was not much respect in her words.

Jiang Jianxi looked closely at her and said, "next time, wear the whole prettier mask."

Tang Zhuozhao recognized the disgust in his words and shrunk his mouth.

"it's not easy for me to make such a mask, and Master will just watch."

Jiangjianxi's eyes fell on her beautiful eyebrows, and after a moment of distraction, she returned to her mind like an unruly prodigal son.

"having said that, I asked what was Coagulation Powder doing?"

Tang Zhuozhao could not tell what had happened in the palace, because the news had been completely blocked by Huo Qiu, and now she did not know whether Jiangjianxi was an enemy or a friend, and it was too hasty to tell the whole story.

"when I was in the palace, I saw a pool of black blood, shaped like viscose for a long time and accompanied by a fishy smell." As she spoke, she glanced at Jiangjianxi with her eyes.

The west of Jiangjian did not change its color, but he just sighed a low sigh and said, "it's getting late. Go back to the palace as soon as possible."

"Don't mind your own business. I picked up your life, and it's very weak."

Seeing this, Tang Zhuozhao had to rest his mind.

Jiang Jianxi won't say a word about what she doesn't want to say, just like when she was pestering to learn to make tea, she didn't get much results for months.

Seeing that she was covered with that veil again, Jiangjian Xi endured it, but still could not help saying, "the insect tricks in southern Xinjiang on the emperor, but did you solve it in a way?"

"Yes." Tang Zhuozhao answered without hesitation, her voice was crisp and sweet, and Jiangjian West suddenly smiled, came over and messed up her hair, smiling gloomily: "what did you promise me when you were taken back to Tang Fu?"

"Tang Zhuozhao, can you tell me the truth?"

The smell of cleanliness and clearness on the man came. Tang Zhuozhao frowned and retreated a few steps invisible. his two eyebrows frowned very tightly and retorted, "you and I both know how dangerous the beast is in southern Xinjiang. Huo Qiu is my husband. I naturally want to keep him safe anyway."

Jiang Jianxi came to his senses and caressed his forehead. "that's no ordinary insect trick," Jiang Jianxi said. "the medicine you use is too strong, and the worm destroys and kills people."

"the person who planted the demagogic worm was a direct son of the aristocracy in southern Xinjiang, who is now dead."

With that, Jiangjianxi looked back and emphasized word by word, "can you understand what I'm saying to you?"

Tang Zhuozhao became vigilant almost instantly, "does someone want to seek revenge with me?"

It is useless to say more. Jiangjianxi put the wooden board on the chessboard into her hand and said with special meaning, "Burning, don't embarrass me."

By the time Tang Zhaozhao returned to the palace, it was already dark outside, and she was very absent-minded about what Jiang Jianxi had said.

Anxia also went back to the palace and saw her coming out of the inner hall. She felt a strange feeling from the bottom of her heart and hurriedly came forward to report: "Madame, the maidservant has come out of the palace to see the doctor of Jiang Tai, but he said that he already had guests today. Can we discuss it another day?"

Tang Zhuozhao nodded carelessly and looked up from an obscure ancient book. the wind outside was a little strong, rustling the fallen leaves, her fingertips were abnormally white, and she didn't know if she had listened to Anxia's words.

"I know."

She looked up at the sky outside and asked, "has the emperor ever been here?"

The purple ring shook his head, and Tang Zhuozhao really relieved some of his mind.

The book she holds in her hand is about the Dian nationality in southern Xinjiang, where people raise tricks from generation to generation, and some people even feed them with their body. when they are used, they drive out the demagogic insects and attach them to another person, which is particularly difficult to deal with.

If, as Jiangjianxi said, Huo Qiu was planted with this kind of tricks, then the way of scraping bones and forcing tricks is useless.

She closed the book gently, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

So what method did Huo Qiu use in her last life?

A moment later, she pulled out a branch of sweet-scented osmanthus from the white jade vase, trembled slightly on her wrist, and sprinkled tiny flowers all over her.

How come now that you have cleaned up all the mess in your previous life, but you have got into a lot of trouble?
