Who Said I Was a Coquettish Bitch

Some things are really unspeakable, and they will be shared as soon as they are said.

Just now, Bai Chen was still telling Xiao Lin that if the case could not be solved, the case might be brought to Dali Temple. Unexpectedly, He Wenguang was beaten with a sap last night.

I don't know if it's his crow's mouth or the iceberg's crow's mouth...

Those who were knocked down before were all ordinary businessmen. Jing Zhaoyin had no reason to push the matter out. The one who was knocked down last night was an official from the Ministry of Rites and the second son of Cheng Enbo's mansion. Mr. Mei just used the excuse that he couldn't afford it. Reported and asked Dali Temple to come forward.

When Master Hu, Minister of Dali Temple, heard that the case was serious, he quickly took over.Uncle is the empress dowager's nephew, and the concubine's elder brother. Uncle's young master was nearly killed by a robber. If the empress dowager blames him, it's not a joke. Hurry up and order someone to arrest Luo Lanye on the way. He stopped the car and asked him and Mr. Lu to go to the uncle's mansion quickly to see the situation of Mr. He and see if there were any clues to solve the case.

It just so happened that Lord Lu went to Longcheng to review a case, so Luo Lanye came directly to Lord Lu's subordinate, Bai Chen, in a carriage.

So early in the morning, Bai Chen was going to rush to Cheng Enbo's mansion with the boss.

While in the car, Bai Chen learned that He Wenguang got out of the Qinlou Chu Pavilion in the south of the city last night half drunk, and was blocked by gangsters alone in a small alley. He got very drunk and was cleaned up by the murderer after a few strokes.

If it hadn't been for the boy who went to find out, He Wenguang's life might not be saved.

"That's fine, why is he going to the alley alone?" Bai Chen couldn't help but feel curious, "There is also a place for fireworks in the north of the city, so why did he go to the south of the city?"

Having been in contact with Luo Lanye for a long time, Bai Chen became less restrained in front of him, and he was more casual when discussing the case.

"According to the boy of the He family who reported the case, his young master felt bored, so he went to the south of the city for entertainment." Luo Lanye said, "The fireworks field in the north of the city is opened by the government after all. It's a novelty."

Bai Chen didn't speak, thinking that Mr. Luo, as a single man, you know a lot.

Luo Lanye seemed to have sensed something from Bai Chen's expression, and said again: "I also have spies, and I have always heard about the situation in the south of the city."

"So that's how it is." Bai Chen quickly put away his complaints in his heart, and said seriously, "He is sexually happy, so it's not surprising that such a thing happened when he went there to have fun."

"The Holy Majesty will know about this matter very soon. If the Empress Dowager puts pressure on us, the burden on us will also increase." Luo Lanye said, "We must quickly arrest this Jiangyang thief."

Bai Chen said seriously, "Yes, my lord."

……

When they arrived at the gate of Cheng En Bo's Mansion, there were already servants and Yamen servants from Dali Temple waiting outside the gate.

This is the first time for Bai Chen to come to Cheng En Bo's Mansion. The scale of Bo Chen's Mansion is not as big as the Wang's Mansion, but it is also magnificent.

Bai Chen followed Luo Lanye to the main hall to meet Cheng Enbo.

He had only met this uncle once or twice before, he was five or six points similar in appearance to the princess, and he was still quite handsome in middle age, but just like the princess, his health was not very good, he had asthma, which was difficult to cure .

Today's Cheng Enbo looked particularly bad, whether he was overly sad or angry, He Wenjun waited on him, his face was not very good-looking.

It was an urgent matter, so we greeted each other, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, we got to the point.

"Uncle, how is Second Young Master's injury?" Luo Lanye asked, "Are you awake now?"

"My life was saved, but the injuries are too serious and I am still in a coma. If Mr. Luo wants to ask him something, it may be difficult." Cheng Enbo gasped a little after he finished speaking.

He Wenjun hurriedly sent the pills for his father to take, and then gave him a pat on the back, "Father, please rest for a while, don't get angry."

"Father was so annoyed that his illness, which was almost cured, relapsed again." He Wenjun sighed, "Master Luo, just ask me whatever you want to ask."

"I heard that the second son went to the south of the city to play last night, right?" Luo Lanye asked straight-forward, "Which brothel did you go to specifically, does the eldest son know?"

Cheng Enbo's face was a little red, and his son was directly pointed out when he went to the brothel to degenerate, and he still couldn't let go of his old face.

He Wenjun shook his head, "He came back covered in blood, and we were so anxious that we ran around. We just wanted to save his life first, and then report to the police. We haven't stopped until now."

"Did Mr. He bring a young man over last night?" Bai Chen said, "Can you call that young man over, let's ask."

"it is good."

He Wenjun said to the boy next to him: "Go and call Gou San over."

"Yes, young master."

It didn't take long before a thin boy with a sluggish face was brought in. After He Wenguang's accident, he probably had already been punished, and he looked timid and frightened.

"I have seen the master, the young master, all the adults."

Bai Chen took a closer look, wasn't this the boy who came to give presents during the day yesterday?

He was also a little surprised when he saw Bai Chen, but he didn't dare to make any expression, for fear that this Master Bo would file a complaint again, and he would suffer another flesh and blood pain.

"Whatever the two adults ask you, you can honestly explain, do you hear me?" He Wenjun said with a straight face, "Otherwise, you will suffer."

Gou San shrank his neck, "Yes, Eldest Young Master."

Luo Lanye said: "Bai Sizhi, you can ask."

"Yes, my lord." After cupping his hands, Bai Chen stood up and walked in front of Gou San.

"Which brothel in the south of the city did you accompany your second young master yesterday? After you came out of the brothel, why did he go to the alley alone? What did you see when you went to the alley?" Bai Chen said, "I know you Yes, tell the truth, don’t hide it.”

"Yes, yes, my lord." Gou San was intimidated by Bai Chen's serious expression, and stammered: "Yesterday, the young master was not in a good mood. After dinner, he took me to the south of the city to have fun. He said that the south of the city The "Red Sleeve Garden" has a new group of foreign singers, not only performing arts, but also selling themselves..."

"Bastard!" Cheng Enbo cursed angrily, "I thought that after entering the court and becoming an official, I would restrain myself, but I didn't expect this prodigal son to be so unprogressive!"

"Uncle calm down, your health is important." Master Luo Lan persuaded, "The incident has already happened, and it is useless for you to be angry. The most important thing now is to find the perpetrator."

Cheng Enbo took a deep breath and nodded, "Go ahead."

Bai Chen looked at Gou San, "Continue talking."

"Young Master and I stayed in Hongxiu Garden for a while. Young Master wanted to stay there for the night, but today he had to leave." Gou San said, "Young Master asked me to settle the bill with the old bustard. I didn’t see the young master when I was there. I was so anxious that I searched everywhere, and finally found him in the alley behind Hongxiu Garden. When I arrived, I only saw the young master in the alley.”

Bai Chen asked, "Have all the valuables on him been taken away?"

Gou Sandao: "I saw the young master was covered in blood, and I just wanted to send him back to the mansion to save his life. The young master's purse is with me. I don't know what that villain took away."

"A piece of jade pendant on his body and a jade finger in his hand are gone." He Wenjun said, "I saw it when his maid was cleaning him."

"Did anything strange happen to you in Hongxiu Court?" Bai Chen asked, "For example, did anyone pay special attention to the Second Young Master?"

Gou San thought for a while, then shook his head in fear, "I, I didn't find anything."

If you want to come to that kind of place, everyone is drunk and dreamy, addicted to desire, even the servant must be absent-minded, it is difficult to notice the changes around him.

"Idiot." Cheng Enbo scolded, "I can't even look down on anyone, so what use are you for!"

Gou San plopped down on his knees: "I know I was wrong, please forgive my master!"

……

With a glimmer of hope, Bai Chen and Luo Lanye went to see He Wenguang in the room.

Several female relatives waited in the house, and all of them cried until their eyes were red and swollen.

Bai Chen was speechless, it was not enough to have so many concubines, and he had to go to the brothel to play, how addicted is He Wenguang?

The room was filled with a strong smell of medicine and blood. He Wenguang's head was swollen into a pig's head, and he was wrapped like a mummy.His mouth and nose were crooked, his face was bruised and swollen, and he was motionless with his eyes closed.

"Aren't you awake yet?" He Wenjun asked.

A beautiful woman who looked to be in her twenties sobbed, "Reporting to Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master just woke up, the servants gave him medicine, drank half, spilled half, drank and fell asleep again .”

"Okay, don't cry, he is still alive, not dead." He Wenjun said impatiently, "There are only two people left here, and the rest are scattered."

It can be seen that He Wenjun is very prestigious in the uncle's house. As soon as his words came out, six or seven female relatives immediately dispersed, leaving only the beautiful woman and another older woman.

"Second Young Master." Luo Lanye walked to the bed and said softly, "Can you hear me?"

He Wenguang didn't respond, he didn't even roll his eyeballs, so scared that He Wenjun hurried over to check his pulse, and found that he was only relieved after falling asleep.

"Second Young Master is seriously injured, I'm afraid I won't be able to ask questions today." Luo Lanye said, "I'll leave a yamen servant behind and ask Gou San to dictate a detailed record and bring it back to Dali Temple, then we'll leave first."

He Wenjun cupped his hands and thanked: "Then I will trouble you two adults."

……

After leaving the uncle's house, the two rushed to the scene of the crime without stopping.

This place has been sealed off by officials. To Bai Chen's surprise, there are not many onlookers here. Perhaps for the people in the south of the city, this kind of robbery from time to time can no longer arouse their interest in stopping. dead.

This is a very narrow alley, one end is a dead end, the alley is full of sundries and garbage, it can be seen that not many people usually come here.

A pool of blood that had darkened on the ground showed that a brutal attack had taken place here.

Bai Chen searched carefully, feeling a little disappointed.This Jiangyang thief is a veteran. In modern terms, he has strong anti-investigation capabilities, and almost no evidence was found at the scene.

Now I can only go back to Dali Temple first, and wait until Master Mei sends over the files of the other cases for analysis before making any plans.

The author has something to say: Xiaohua: I think my father is a crow's mouth

Bai Chen: Second.

Someone Xiao: What does it mean to be shot even in the barracks!
