Chapter 32 – Lingering Fragrance Pavilion
When Zi Moyan heard this name, she was startled for a second before mumbling: "Yue Ran?" He's actually surnamed Yue?
Zi Haoran continued to introduce towards Yue Ran. "This is my second young brother, called Zi Moyan. He's currently Long Lin's Right Prime Minister!"
Yue Ran smiled faintly, but it was as the spring wind. "h.e.l.lo, can I call you Little Brother Mo?"
"Whatever you want." Zi Moyan never paid attention to what other people called her by, it was fine as long as she liked it.
After Zi Haoran finished with the introduction, he suddenly remembered one important thing. "Little Brother Mo, I came back just in time for Father's burial. Yue Ran and I saw Father's corpse and Brother Yue felt that Father's death isn't that simple. He said Father died by a poison called 'Saffron' instead of from illness. Regarding this matter, what do you think, little Brother Mo?"
Zi Moyan sized this white-robed man up, he actually knew this type of poison?
Yue Ran felt her gaze and smiled faintly as he explained: "I have learned a bit of medicine before and also felt very interested in this field so I would frequently flip through medical books — that's where I saw this type of poison before."
"So it turns out Brother Yue was interested in medicine. That's right Father's death was indeed caused by Saffron. I've already sent people to investigate before. The capital does have someone who previously had sold Saffron. The transaction spot is at Lingering Fragrance Pavilion." Zi Moyan didn't hide it. She called Zi Haoran back was exactly because she wanted to find out who was the culprit who killed their father.
"Lingering Fragrance Pavilion? Little brother Mo, are you really sure it's there? There isn't a mistake?" Zi Haoran was extremely shocked, his face filled with disbelief.
When Zi Moyan saw that incredulous expression of his, she said calmly: "What? Although hearing that the transaction spot is Lingering Fragrance Pavilion is indeed rather shocking, but isn't your reaction a bit excessive?"
Zi Haoran restrained his emotions, calming down. "Little Brother Mo may not know, but this Lingering Fragrance Pavilion is a place Father used to collect intelligence. It's actually one of Father's subordinate's forces."
"A force that belonged to Father?" Zi Moyan had continuously sent no few people to investigate Lingering Fragrance Pavilion. Only because the person behind it never revealed themselves, she never got a lead. She didn't think that it was actually Zi Haotian's subordinate’s forces.
Since it was like this, then shouldn't it be very dangerous for the culprit to pick Lingering Fragrance Pavilion to do business?
It was all Father's eyes and ears so he could've discovered them at any time. In this kind of situation, they still want to use Lingering Fragrance Pavilion to do business? Could it be that there's a it-must-be-that-place kind of reason?
"Do you know who's the biggest manager in this Lingering Fragrance Pavilion other than Father?"
Zi Haoran pondered for a moment. "The biggest manager? I'm not too clear in Lingering France Pavilion's managements and Father doesn't usually go there so he also doesn't mention it often. If not for that one time I was outside eavesdropping, I wouldn't have known that Lingering Fragrance Pavilion belonged to Father's forces."
Zi Moyan actually rather wanted to go have a look around in this Lingering Fragrance Pavilion. After all, she currently only had Lingering Fragrance Pavilion this one lead. She glanced at Zi Haoran. "Big Brother, have you been to Lingering Fragrance Pavilion?"
Zi Haoran spat out the tea that he just drank when he heard Zi Moyan's question. "Little Brother Mo, what are you saying?! How could I dare to go to that kind of place? If Father knew, he would've no doubt broke off both of my legs!"
"Don't all men like going to there?" Zi Moyan responded matter-of-factly.
