Chapter 492 Spend your money
Hongdou looked at Lin Teng critically.
Although the slender young man looked a bit stupid because of his sluggish expression, his facial features were still outstanding.
The little servant girl was surprised to find one thing: Hey, if Mr. Lin is only talking about his appearance, it's not bad for the girl in front of him.
Shi Yan, who followed, noticed that Hongdou's expression had changed, and coughed hurriedly.
Lin Teng was brought back to his senses by the cough, and subconsciously looked over.
Shi Yan smiled at Lin Teng, patted Hongdou, and said earnestly: "Sister Hongdou, don't talk nonsense, is our girl a faceless person? Let me count for you: negative snow, bright candle, Feiyang, Lingxiao, the four of them happened to be playing horse-slings at a table, if there was one more, we could just watch."
Hongdou Baishiyan glanced at her, and said contemptuously: "Worry about it. It's not like our girls can't afford it. If there's an extra table, won't we make up two tables?"
Shi Yan: "..."
No, he's a little messy, let's go in and eat.
Seeing Shi Yan go in, Hongdou also followed.
Originally, she came out to see after Shi Sanhuo said that Mr. Lin might be trying to coax the girl for free. Since she just wanted to meet her face-to-face and she was decent-looking, of course she would support the girl.
Shi Yan is so angry.
He pushed Hongdou out to make Mr. Lin give up, but the eldest sister told him that there was still room for Miss Luo. Isn't this a disservice!
Outside the wine shop, Lin Teng, who had completely digested Hongdou's astonishing words, panicked: "Miss Luo, that's not what I meant—"
"I know." Luo Sheng interrupted Lin Teng's explanation, a little helpless.
No matter how mischievous Miss Luo is, she won't take the head of the imperial court official. What are these people thinking.
Thinking like this, suddenly thought of Wei Han.
Oh, it seems that others can’t be blamed for thinking too much. After all, in the eyes of the world, Miss Luo almost robbed King Kaiyang...
Thinking of the man who often wears scarlet clothes, Luo Sheng was in a daze for a moment.
Lin Teng was keenly aware of Luo Sheng's trance, and somehow his chest felt a little congested.
He couldn't explain why this sudden feeling came about, so he decided to ignore it.
After all, there are too many things to do than a sudden discomfort.
Lin Teng straightened his face, and said: "Miss Luo has helped me so much, if I ask for something in the future, Lin Teng will do my best."
Luo Sheng smiled: "Master Lin, you don't have to feel that you owe me favors. I didn't do this for Mr. Lin, but to pity those women and do my best within my ability."
Lin Teng listened, and bowed deeply to Luo Sheng: "No matter what it is for, what I just said will not change. I thank Miss Luo on behalf of those girls, and I will send a copy of the list to Miss Luo tomorrow."
"Okay, I'm waiting for Master Lin's list."
"Miss Luo, I'm leaving." Lin Teng strode forward.
The night is very dark, but there is always light to illuminate the road ahead.
Early the next morning, Luo Sheng got the list from the yamen servant sent by Lin Teng, and immediately ordered Kouer to arrange it.
Lin Teng went to the household department again.
Sun Shilang frowned when he heard that Lin Teng asked to see him.
He knows Lin Teng's name, but why does Zhao Shangshu's love general come to the household department to find him?
Thinking about how Lin Teng became famous, Sun Shilang was instinctively muttering, but he still met someone.
"What is Mr. Lin looking for from me?"
Lin Tengchong cupped Sun Shilang's hand: "Due to a case that I have recently investigated, I want to ask Mr. Sun for some information."
Sun Shilang took a sip of tea calmly: "Master Lin, tell me."
The investigation of the case found the household department?
This Lin Teng is really as the rumors say, he doesn't care about human sophistication when investigating the case.
Lin Teng was silent for a moment, and asked, "I wonder if someone has borrowed the household registration register from Mr. Sun recently?"
Lin Teng said calmly: "It's just to investigate the case, there is no other meaning."
Sun Shilang chuckled: "Master Lin is joking, the household registration register is under the control of the household department, so why would you show it to irrelevant people?"
Lin Teng pursed his thin lips slightly.
Sun Shilang did not tell the truth.
The little official who had a good relationship with him yesterday clearly said that Sun Shilang had just taken the household registration register not long ago, and he must not be too idle, so he looked at the household registration register to pass the time, right?
The biggest possibility is that someone borrowed from him, and the status of this borrower will not be low.
As for whether the disappearance is related to Sun Shilang, Lin Teng thinks it is unlikely.
If Sun Shilang really did it, he wouldn't explain it so casually. The household department is Sun Shilang's territory, and he can do it more covertly.
Then listening to Sun Shilang talking about playing football, Lin Teng knew that he would not be able to ask anything this time, so he left.
Back to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Lin Teng went directly to Zhao Shangshu for help.
Zhao Shangshu was so annoyed that he pulled his beard: "You know how to get me into trouble!"
Lin Teng flattered without changing his face: "What can't be done in a humble job, only you, an adult, can do."
Zhao Shangshu twitched the corners of his mouth.
This kind of straightforward praise is too perfunctory!
No matter what, this kid has learned how to praise now, and he is much stronger than before.
Thinking of the mess he had cleaned up, Zhao Shangshu burst into tears.
"Go and do other things, let me try with Sun Shilang." The old Shangshu angrily threw Lin Teng out.
The Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Household Affairs were not far away. When he was about to leave the Yamen, Zhao Shangshu sent someone to watch quietly. When he saw Sun Shilang coming out, he pretended to meet him by chance.
"Master Sun is coming to Yamen." Zhao Shangshu greeted with a smile.
Sun Shilang glanced at Zhao Shangshu vigilantly.
What does this old fox want to do?
"It's better to meet by chance than to invite each other. It's time for dinner. I'll treat Master Sun to a drink."
have a drink?
Thinking of Lin Teng coming to the household department today, Sun Shilang's first reaction was to refuse.
It's not worthwhile to cause trouble for a meal of wine.
"How about going to a restaurant?"
"Okay!" Before Sun Shilang could think about it, his mouth had already responded.
Sun Shilang raised his hand, wanting to slap himself, but he was reluctant.
I still have to keep my mouth open for a good drink.
Qingxing Street is still bustling, and there is a blue wine front in front of a restaurant fluttering in the wind.
Zhao Shangshu and Sun Shilang walked into the restaurant together and entered the private room.
Silently calculating that Sun Shilang had eaten up all his private money and still needed credit, Zhao Shangshu gritted his teeth and asked what Lin Teng hadn't found out.
With such a cost, if this idiot dares to be sloppy, he will kill him!
Facing Old Shangshu's murderous eyes, Sun Shilang regretted and was satisfied.
What I regret is that I didn't control my mouth, this trip shouldn't have come.
What I am satisfied with is this mouth. I never thought that there would be a day in a wine shop where I would open my belly and eat my throat.
Sun Shilang sighed with difficulty: "Master Zhao, I advise you not to ask about this matter, it's hard to say."
"It's hard to say?" Zhao Shangshu narrowed his eyes and touched the flagon.
Sun Shilang's heart trembled, and he said in a low voice: "It's related to this."
He dipped in the tea and quickly wrote a word on the table.
