Su Lijin used her status as queen to pressure others, which was simply murderous. The position of Concubine Shu, which she had always longed for but could not get, had always been the most taboo in her heart.
These words infuriated Concubine Shu and she stamped her feet on the spot, saying jealously, "It's just a moment of good luck. I don't believe you can rest easy in that position forever!"
Su Lijin raised her eyebrows and slapped Concubine Shu in the face: "How dare you call yourself me in front of me?"
Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, but unfortunately it was not a good time to make a big deal out of it. She stomped her feet on the floor twice, suppressed her anger, and apologized:
"It's my fault for not knowing the proper etiquette... Thank you... Her Majesty the Queen for your guidance!"
The more she spoke, the angrier she became. Concubine Shu could hardly hold back her expression and ran out angrily.
Looking at the entrance of the hall, a smile flashed in Su Lijin's eyes. To be honest, it was quite interesting to bicker with this concubine, especially watching her jump up and down, which was the most interesting.
After the matter of decocting the medicine was settled, Su Lijin prepared to start doing another thing.
That is to investigate the matter of the Flying Fairy.
She promised to get to the bottom of it, and she would do it.
After disguising herself, Su Lijin left the imperial city through a secret passage.
Looking at herself dressed as a man, Su Lijin smiled and walked into a teahouse.
There was a hidden private room in this teahouse. Su Lijin entered the teahouse and went straight to the room.
Someone was already waiting for her in the box.
A man in dark clothes, holding a letter in his hand, saw her come in and put the letter directly on the table.
Su Lijin was very tactful and pushed the silver in her hand over. The man took the silver and left through the secret door.
The man is an intelligence dealer who specializes in gathering intelligence here.
That letter, I guess, is intelligence.
After opening the letter, Su Lijin quickly scanned the information on it, but her brows furrowed more and more.
"These are all well-known things, and there are basically no useful clues."
"It seems that the information dealers can't get any clues."
She hadn't expected that the matter of the Flying Fairy was so secretive and complicated that even they couldn't find any clues.
Thinking about this, Su Lijin walked out of the teahouse box, but caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
"Who is that? The Prime Minister's people?"
She had an excellent memory and recognized at a glance that the man in the green robe in front of her was the Prime Minister's man whom she had noticed before.
"The Prime Minister's men are here. Could it be that they have some plans?"
The Prime Minister was cunning and had been doing dirty things in secret. Su Lijin said, "We happened to run into him this time, so why not take a look?"
As she said this, she followed him quietly all the way.
As she followed, Su Lijin suddenly discovered that the man turned a corner and stopped.
She looked carefully and saw a sedan chair parked there with someone sitting inside.
The man in the green robe followed the sedan respectfully. The sedan went around several streets and finally stopped. A middle-aged man got out.
If that middle-aged man isn't the Prime Minister, then who is he?
Su Lijin couldn't help but gasp: "It really is the Prime Minister!"
But what shocked her so much was not the appearance of the Prime Minister, but the fact that the sedan chair was parked at the door of the brothel!
"Prime Minister...are you here to visit a brothel?"
Su Lijin was stunned for a moment, watching the Prime Minister step into the brothel. Fearing that the clue would be lost, she hurriedly followed him.
As Su Lijin stepped into the brothel, she was immediately hit by the scent of rouge and powder. She was surrounded by seven or eight brothel girls in cool clothes. She wrinkled her nose and sneezed loudly.
She suddenly covered her nose, fearing that she would attract other people's attention, but fortunately the brothel was so noisy that no one noticed.
"Sir, is this your first time visiting our building?"
"My lord, you are so handsome. My name is Furong. Why don't you let me accompany you?"
The girls in the brothel surrounded her with smiles on their faces. Their enthusiasm was so strong that it seemed as if they could eat people up. Su Lijin felt a little scared.
For a moment, Su Lijin didn't know where to go and just huddled in place.
Naturally, the Prime Minister's figure could not be seen anywhere.
"Don't scare the guests."
The madam noticed Su Lijin's expensive clothes and her eyes lit up. She quickly pushed everyone away and said with a smile, "Sir, why don't you go to the private room and take a look?"
Su Lijin finally breathed in the fresh air, blushed slightly and nodded, then quickly followed the madam: "Thank you."
If she stayed any longer, she would be crushed to death by the surging waves.
The madam opened a private room, served delicious food and drinks, and asked, "What would you like to order, young master?"
Su Lijin was startled by the question, but she understood immediately. It was common to visit a brothel and not order a girl. She coughed lightly and said, "This young master wants to order the most beautiful girl."
"Sir, you have good taste. The courtesan here is absolutely stunning and I guarantee you will be satisfied."
The madam's face lit up with joy, thinking that the God of Wealth had come. She responded and quickly sent someone to find the courtesan.
"I can't hold it in anymore. I'm going to the bathroom first." With the Prime Minister in mind, Su Lijin found an excuse and quickly ran out of the private room.
However, she ran around but did not see the prime minister.
The sounds of chirping came from each box, and the guest she saw through the window was not the prime minister.
"Where on earth did that old fox go? I've already searched most of the brothel's private rooms."
Su Lijin was a little anxious. If the Prime Minister just came to visit the brothel, that would be easy to deal with, but she always felt that it shouldn't be that simple.
"Why are you here?"
The madam's voice suddenly rang out, startling Su Lijin.
She quickly said, "It's too boring. I'll walk around."
But this reason is not so easy to fool.
The madam sneered, "I've met so many people, and you think you can get rid of me with just one sentence? I don't think you're here to visit a brothel, but rather to look for something."
"What's your purpose in sneaking around here?"
Four or five thugs surrounded her instantly, staring at Su Lijin viciously.
"Even if I die under the peony flowers, I will still be a romantic ghost. Food and sex are human nature. If I don't come to the brothel to drink and enjoy the flowers, then I am here to admire the moon."
Su Lijin knew that she couldn't admit it at this time.
Unexpectedly, the madam's eyes flickered when she heard this, and her expression suddenly became serious. She asked tentatively, "How did you know this code? Could it be that you are from that gang?"
Noticing the change in the madam's attitude, Su Lijin suddenly felt that she had stumbled upon the secret code by accident.
She was a little amused, but her face remained calm: "Yeah, that's right."
With a wave of her hand, the madam immediately dismissed the thugs, changed her previous frivolous appearance, and led the way with a serious face: "Young master, follow me."
Su Lijin followed her hesitantly and soon entered a secret room.
Entering the secret room, she was surprised to find a veiled man sitting there, who seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
The man was thin, but he had the character of a scholar. He had a pair of wise eyes and looked at Su Lijin calmly and indifferently.
"Twenty gold coins for one question." The man said.
The closer they got, the more shocked Su Lijin became. If she was not mistaken, the man in front of her was named Tan Tai Chun.
He also has a more famous title, known as Jianghu Know-it-all!
