"My lord, where do you want to go?" the steward of the Ding residence asked respectfully standing beside the sedan chair.

"...Go back to the house." Master Ding closed his eyes tiredly, waved his hand, and asked the steward to put down the car curtain.

The steward responded, still hanging his head, but the corner of his mouth evoked a smile inexplicably.

In the lobby of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Bao Mian was holding Bao Zheng's thigh and weeping wildly. He vowed again and again that he would be a new man in the future and would never listen to slander in a muddle. Bao Zheng took care of him.

Mr. Bao was so confused by his own nephew that he couldn't leave, and he wanted to stay because he was unsightly.It's a pity that Mr. Bao can't really do this under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Zhan Zhao pulled Pang Yu out: "Young Master, let the humble official send you back to the Grand Master's Mansion, come here, come this way..."

Mr. Gongsun, who was a step behind, happened to be caught by Mr. Bao, who cast a begging look at his master: "Mr. Gongsun! Please help persuade Bao Mian..."

Gongsun Ce had no choice but to endure his displeasure, and stepped forward to persuade him.He was thinking silently in his heart, it seems that he will learn boxing kung fu from Zhan Huwei, otherwise he will have to do everything by himself in the future, I am afraid that he will age prematurely.Sigh... I don't know if it's too late to start learning martial arts now?

Relying on his lightness, Zhan Zhao quickly left the Ministry of Criminal Justice with Pang Yu, and asked as he walked, "Why didn't that mouse come with you?"

"He said that since Mr. Gongsun is the litigator and there are witnesses, there is no suspense about the result of this retrial. It would be a waste of time to go there, and it will only increase the boredom." Pang Yu shook his head. He knew that Bai Yutang had been too busy a few days ago. Tired, still a little tired, so I just let him have a good rest, anyway, Qiu Fei and Wen Ruoyu can't get away with the death penalty.

Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "Brother Bai is still so casual."

Pang Yu scratched his cheek and was about to say a few words when he saw a blue sedan chair in front of him turning into the alley on the left at the end of the long street. "Isn't that the sedan chair of Master Ding's family?"

At that time, people didn't like to sit in a sedan chair, and believed that a gentleman "does not replace animals with human beings". Only the elderly, weak, sick and disabled would take a sedan chair, or only ladies in the boudoir would like a sedan chair.When going out to travel, most men choose to ride horses or carriages, so there are not many sedan chairs on the street. In Bianjing City, people who can use sedan chairs for transportation can be counted on two hands. It is not uncommon for Pang Yu to remember Master Ding’s sedan chair .

Even Zhan Zhao recognized the blue soft sedan chair, and they often came to the Ministry of Criminal Justice recently, so they knew a little about Mr. Ding's servants and his means of transportation.

"That is indeed Master Ding's sedan chair, what's wrong?" Zhan Zhao followed Pang Yu's line of sight.

"Master Ding doesn't enter the palace, he doesn't go back to the mansion, what is he going to do in Washe Goulan?" Pang Yu asked curiously.

"What?" Zhan Zhao quickly thought about the streets of Bianjing City, and found that what Pang Yu said was indeed correct. That road and alley led to Washe Goulan. He was still wondering, when he heard Pang Yu say : "Master Ding has always been relatively clean and honest, why would he go to that kind of place? And it's not dark yet, so how dare he just go there before it's time to go to the Yamen?"

He also swaggered there in his own sedan chair.

"No, there is a problem!" Zhan Zhao's face immediately became serious, "Master Hou, you go and inform Mr. Bao, I'll follow and have a look!"

"No, I'll go with you. The place is messy, and you can easily get lost." Pang Yu felt a little embarrassed after speaking, as if he knew that kind of place very well, although he was indeed familiar with it, but That's all from the past...

"Cough..." Zhan Zhao felt that what Pang Yu said was reasonable, and looked up at the sky, hoping that Bai Yutang would not misunderstand this matter, lest that weird-tempered person mistakenly think that he had spoiled his little crab .

It was getting late, and Goulanfang was just waking up.

The law and order in this area has always been relatively chaotic, and the houses are uneven. In addition to the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, there are various vendors, as well as places for performing juggling, singing and dancing, shadow puppetry, puppet shows, and Cuju.If you want to find a specific target in the chaotic flow of people, in addition to having a good look, you also need to be familiar with the terrain of the place.

Pang Yu led Zhan Zhao to turn left and right, and was sometimes blocked by groups of people, but he never lost the blue sedan chair.

However, the sedan chair stopped by itself.

The steward of Ding's mansion and the four people who carried the sedan chair suddenly ran wildly, taking advantage of the night to escape into the noisy crowd, Zhan Zhaofei chased after him, but there were too many people on the street, and the five people were very good at hiding, and finally still It was lost.

Zhan Zhao, who was not in a good mood, returned to the original spot, and saw Pang Yu standing beside the sedan chair with a pale face.

"Master Hou, what's the matter?" Zhan Zhao hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"You... see for yourself." Pang Yu helped him lift the car curtain.

Zhan Zhao looked intently, and saw Master Ding leaning to one side, his face and lips were black and purple, obviously poisoned, and had been dead for a long time.

"I want to bring Master Ding's body back to Kaifeng Mansion as soon as possible..." Before Zhan Zhao finished speaking, he heard the sound of breaking wind above his head, and he and Pang Yu looked up together.

"what--"

On the third floor above the head, a woman fell out of the window, and the screams attracted the attention of many people.

Without even thinking about it, Zhan Zhao stepped forward to catch the woman and put her on the ground safely.

Pang Yu recruited a few clerks in the store, gave them some money to carry the sedan chair to Kaifeng Mansion, and did not tell them who was sitting inside, but those people all recognized An Lehou, and took the money respectfully, Pian didn't dare to delay, so he lifted the sedan chair and ran to Kaifeng mansion.

And at this time, the girl also recovered from her panic, and said with a blissful body: "Thank you, sir, for saving me."

"You don't need to thank me, I'm just passing by to help." Zhan Zhao frowned, "I wonder if the girl can tell me, who pushed you down from the window?"

"This..." The girl hastily covered her open breasts, lowered her head in embarrassment, "I...don't dare to say..."

"What are you afraid to say? Since that person is going to kill you, why can't you cover it up for him?" Zhan Zhao was a little annoyed. The failure of tracking down the five people in Ding's residence made him feel guilty, and now he saw a The girl who had been wronged and almost died before her eyes was half filled with pity and half unwilling to let the girl become the second Master Ding, so he decided to take care of this matter. "Come on, you follow me up, I want to see, what is the identity of that person, can he ignore human life?"

Pang Yu hurriedly said: "Those who dare to do this are either rich or expensive. It's not safe for you to go up there alone. I'll go with you too."

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows: "Then thank you, Lord Hou, for following along."

"...Are you Lord Hou?" The girl secretly glanced at Pang Yu several times, and after being noticed by Pang Yu, she quickly lowered her head, secretly chewing on Zhan Zhao's words about Lord Hou.

As soon as the three of them reached the second floor, they were stopped by several guards dressed as ordinary people: "There are noble people upstairs, it's not a place for you to wait for the untouchables, get out!"

"Excuse me, can you have some snacks next time you come out in micro-services?" Pang Yu glanced at the waists of these people with a smile, "Next time you come to the brothel, how about taking off the badge of Prince Jing's Mansion first?"

Several guards guarding the door looked at each other, and a man with good eyes finally recognized Pang Yu: "It's Marquis An Le! I have a humble job and poor eyesight, please forgive me..."

After speaking, he dared not stop them again.

Before Zhan Zhao stepped into the door, he heard the sound of throwing cups and smashing the table: "What the hell is going on down here! How do you do business? I think Wanfang Pavilion should be closed as soon as possible! It's so noisy! "

The voice of the bustard in the room trembled: "Little prince, forgive me, forgive me..."

"Who! Who dares to spoil this king's interest, report your name!" The roar became louder.

Zhan Zhao's face was cold and cold: "The fourth rank of Kaifeng Mansion is guarded with swords, Zhan Zhao. I don't know why the little prince of Prince Jing's Mansion pushed this woman down the stairs?"

"Kaifeng Mansion is so lenient!" The little prince was obviously a little drunk, and he tilted his head to look at Zhan Zhao, "This is a brothel, I spend money to play with women, and if she doesn't follow, I will Punish her, what's the problem? Is it your turn to be in charge of the Kaifeng government?!"

"If you want to punish, you don't have to pay her. If she doesn't want to accompany you, you can ask other people to accompany you." Zhan Zhao frowned.

"I just want to sleep with her, can you control me!" The little prince smashed the wine glass at Zhan Zhao's feet, with an arrogant expression on his face, "Is the fourth-rank guard with a knife big? Let me tell you, apart from the Holy Majesty, my father, Apart from my mother, even my elder brother can’t control me! Who are you, your surname is Zhan, not Zhao!”

"Then I don't know if the surname Pang can take care of you?" Pang Yu walked in from the door after hearing the young prince's drunken madness, and said expressionlessly, "Zhao Qiutang, you are capable, you are brave enough, you don't know if you kill someone and pay for your life." Is it? Or do you just want to eat in the prison of Kaifeng Mansion so much?"

When Prince Zhao saw Pang Yu, his eyes changed from disbelief to ecstasy, and he swept away his decadent and rascal look: "Xiao Yu!!"
