Tang Dynasty detective
Chapter 65
Huang Laoqi said that making three keys is a big job.
Di Jinghong snorted and said, "Three broken keys, you told me it was a big job?"
Huang Laoqi is about fifty years old, thin and thin, and Di Jinghong stands in front of him like a big Buddha, he is as tall as he is, and he is rich at both ends.Di Jinghong's voice was not high, but his words were full of aura. Huang Laoqi was so frightened that he opened his mouth and then closed it. He is a shrewd person. When he doesn't know what to say, he knows how to shut his mouth obediently. .
Seeing this, Di Jinghong felt more confident.Instead, he stopped asking questions, found a bench and sat down with his feet upright, playing with the sword he just got, pulling it out and putting it in, sending it in and pulling it out, the scabbard rattled, making Huang Lao Qi tremble .Di Jinghong played with his sword and gave Liu Boen a wink.
Liu Boen understood, and grinningly negotiated the conditions with Huang Laoqi, "Our boss has a bad temper, you should think about it, we will use this thing tomorrow, and we can't make it... Huh, I can't guarantee that your small shop will It's still open the day after tomorrow."
The little fat man was talking with a smile on his face, and his peach blossom eyes kept blinking. No matter how Huang Laoqi looked at Liu Boen, he looked like a smiling tiger.
Having been in this business for a long time, Huang Laoqi knew that thieves like the big man and the little fat man were either fierce and vicious, or treacherous and suspicious. For a good partner, no wonder two people with non-local accents can do "business" in Yangzhou.
The two in front of me are not easy to mess with, and Huang Laoqi is timid and afraid of getting into trouble, so if he can fool him, he will fool him.Huang Laoqi said: "The two guest officials are not locals, are they?"
Liu Boen said: "What's the matter, you don't entertain people who are not local?"
Huang Laoqidui laughed and said: "That can't be done, that can't be done, I mean, in our Yangzhou, there is a rule in the key making business, if you make a key with a paper pattern, you can't produce two of the same key within a month, this month is a small one." The shop has already issued a longevity key, so... hehe, I really dare not issue a second key."
Liu Boen frowned and said, "Rules? Which established the rules?" Liu Boen has also solved many theft cases, big and small, and has never heard of such strange rules.The little fat man frowned and stopped smiling, which was quite scary.
Huang Laoqi said: "Isn't this a rule set by the gang leaders in the city? If everyone walks through the same door and bumps into colleagues twice in three days, then there will be a fight? Fight... Everyone business is not doing well.”
There are several gangs of thieves in Yangzhou City, who used to fight openly and covertly, and they have suffered damage in the long run, especially weddings, weddings, birthdays and festivals, which are good days for thieves to make a fortune, and they often fight when they look up and look down.So several big gangs negotiated and set a rule, agreeing that the same key cannot be used within one month, which is actually equivalent to painting the territory. I will steal the old Li’s house, and you will steal the old Wang’s house. Water does not violate river water.
When Liu Boen and Di Jinghong heard this, they felt happy. The rules are well established. Who is the thief who is so far-sighted and has set the goal of the investigation as a target, piu~ just move your fingers a little, It hits the bull's-eye, which is so sweet.
As soon as Huang Laoqi finished speaking, Di Jinghong drew out his sword, clanged off a corner of the broken table beside him, flicked the blade of the sword, and dinged, "Not bad." He squinted at Huang Laoqi and grinned. , "I just bought it, let me borrow your desk to try it out."
Huang Laoqi's feet softened and he almost knelt down.
Di Jinghong said: "You said you made a longevity-shaped key and you just made one? There is no proof for what you say. I don't believe it. Let me take out the mold and have a look."
Huang Laoqi looked distressed, and said: "The mold is the housekeeper's job of the small shop, this..."
Di Jinghong commanded Liu Boen and said: "It's getting late, I don't think there are any customers coming to the door, please help the shopkeeper close the shop."
When Di Jinghong said this, Huang Laoqi became even more frightened, "Don't close it, don't close it." When the shop was closed, no one would know that Di Jinghong wiped him off. Yue has indeed produced a key with the characters of longevity and a key with the characters of happiness. The key with the characters of auspicious characters has not been released yet. I can make auspicious characters for you. Don’t make things difficult for me. Two outsiders can't afford to offend the local snakes in the city, if they run into each other, it will be you who will suffer."
Di Jinghong didn't answer, but asked Huang Laoqi, "I heard you have an only son?"
Huang Laoqi was shocked again.
Liu Boen answered for him, "Yes, he is proficient in eating and drinking piaodu, which kiln my son is probably drinking at now."
Huang Laoqi was so frightened that he sat on the ground. From this point of view, he came here knowing the truth.
Di Jinghong bent down suddenly, squinted his eyes and approached Huang Laoqi, and said in a deep voice, "Huang Laoqi, who did you make the longevity-shaped key and the happy-shaped key you made a few days ago?"
Huang Lao Qi gritted his teeth, his heart skipped a beat, and he slammed his head on the ground, "You two young masters, Huang Lao Qi will die if we talk about this matter, please hold your hands high."
Di Jinghong thought in his heart that Huang Laoqi should be a cautious person to do this business. He hasn't had any troubles in these years, so many people ask him to do things.Seeing that Di Jinghong and Liu Boen were outsiders and young, he negligently disclosed the details to them, but today he stumbled, and his business in this small shop can be regarded as a leader.
Di Jinghong said: "Don't worry, God knows this matter, you know we both know it, we will never leave this small shop. As long as you make it clear, we will not make things difficult for you. To tell you the truth, our brothers travel around the rivers and rivers , you can play wherever you go, you have to earn some travel expenses, don’t you? We are unfamiliar with Yangzhou, and we are afraid of colliding with local snakes, so I came to you to find out. Tell me about the three keys that you ordered recently. Which are they all?"
Huang Laoqi said: "I dare not say the name of the person. If I say it, I will..." He made a suicidal gesture, and then said, "I made a longevity lock and a happy lock this month. The king of the family said that he lost his dowry when he married a daughter-in-law, so I guess that Xizi lock has been...used."
Di Jinghong said: "Where is the longevity lock?"
Huang Laoqi said: "The Shouzi lock was ordered by a dumb woman. I haven't heard of anyone throwing things away during their birthday this month, so don't order that key."
Di Jinghong said: "What does that dumb girl look like?"
Huang Laoqi simply resigned to his fate, and since he said it, he didn't hide it, "The dumb girl covered her face, so she couldn't see what she looked like, she was tall, graceful, and pretty."
"How tall?"
"It's about five feet tall, half a head taller than me."
"how old?"
"Seventeen or eighteen years old."
"A regular customer?"
"She's here for the first time."
"Are you sure she's dumb?"
"No... not sure, but she took a piece of paper with gestures and didn't say anything."
"What about the paper pattern?"
"There are rules in the industry, and the paper pattern will be burned in front of her when it is shipped."
Thoughtful, Di Jinghong said: "Boen, draw it." Seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls are five feet tall, which is rare in Yangzhou, and she is also a dumb girl. It shouldn't be too hard to find.
Liu Boen took out a pen and paper, asked Huang Laoqi to speak more carefully, drew the face of the dumb girl, and handed it to Di Jinghong after the drawing.
Di Jinghong took the portrait, and it was really pretty. He looked at it carefully for a while, and the eyes seemed familiar, and he didn't know where he saw them.Di Jinghong took the portrait, threw some broken silver to Huang Laoqi, and said, "Make that lucky lock, and pick it up tomorrow."
Huang Laoqi said: "How dare you ask for money from the two of you, you can come to pick up the goods tomorrow."
Di Jinghong said: "Of course we will give you what we should give you, just keep it." After finishing speaking, he called Liu Boen and went out.
Huang Laoqi was trembling and paralyzed on the ground, unable to get up. The customers didn't even deliver them when they went out. When Liu Boen and the others were far away, he quickly closed the shop and locked it.
As soon as the lock was released, a short knife was put on Huang Laoqi's neck, and Huang Laoqi begged for mercy again, "I have done as you told me, so please forgive me."
A voice in the inner room was cold and unpredictable, "I told you to send them away, but I didn't tell you about your portrait."
Huang Laoqi said: "If I don't paint, they won't spare me. Besides, you're covered and you've changed your clothes, they won't be able to tell."
The voice snorted coldly: "Heaven and earth, I am the number one beauty. Do you mean that I am vulgar?"
Huang Laoqi knelt on the ground, not daring to speak any more. He stretched out his head and locked his head with a knife. He could only resign himself to fate.
After a while, the people in the back room said: "Let's go, this pickled land is disgusting."
The entourage in the outer room raised the knife and dropped it, Huang Laoqi was decapitated.
The back room was humane: "Help them go to the yamen to report a case, they have been busy for a long time, we can't let them work for nothing."
……
After a hard day's work, he finally paid off, and at least he was able to do business when he went back. Di Jinghong was in a happy mood, and he started to walk jerkily, wishing he could run back to the inn to ask for credit from Yen Ziyu.
Liu Boen's short legs hurried to catch up with him, panting, "Go slowly, what's the hurry?"
Di Jinghong said: "Who made your legs grow so short? You blame me for walking fast. Hurry up. No matter how late you are, you won't be able to catch up with dinner."
Liu Boen grabbed him, "Speaking of eating, you still owe me something."
Di Jinghong pretended to be stupid, "What is it?"
Boss Liu Boen was not happy, "Didn't you say to buy me sweet-scented osmanthus cakes? Turn around and forget about it?"
Di Jinghong pointed to the shops on both sides of the street, and said: "Look, they are all closed. Which one still sells sweet-scented osmanthus cakes at this late hour, and I can buy them for you some other day~ah." Di Jinghong didn't even dare to say "tomorrow" , if he said "buy it tomorrow", this foodie will definitely pester him all day tomorrow.
Liu Boen muttered, dragging him not to let go, suddenly his eyes lit up, and said: "That shop is still open."
Di Jinghong looked up, right? There is a dim sum shop still open.Di Jinghong couldn't evade it, so he took Liu Boen to buy it, "Boss, a catty of sweet-scented osmanthus crisps."
The boss responded.Liu Boen hurriedly said: "Boss, two catties."
Di Jinghong said: "Hey~ Liu Boen, I promised you to buy one catty. Can you eat that much at night?"
Liu Boen said: "I said I want to eat one catty, but you only buy one catty, why don't you give it to Ziyu?"
"I..." Di Jinghong said, "Why don't you give Ziyu half a catty?"
Liu Boen rolled his eyes at him and said, "Yes, I don't need to tell you, you will definitely give Ziyu half a catty. In this way, I still don't have enough to eat. Boss, two catties."
Di Jinghong scolded "foodie" and yelled into the shop, "Boss, a catty and a half... Ziyu can't eat as much as you."
"Cut~ up to you, anyway, I will eat a catty." Liu Boen instructed the boss on tiptoe, "Put more, put another one, put another one."
The boss smiled and said: "All right, all right, you can't miss a penny." The proprietress was not happy, "The head of the house, it's almost there, it's almost there, if you do business like this, our shop will lose everything, eh."
Di Jinghong was amused by the two of them, the fireworks in this market place made people feel at ease.His family, Ziyu, is also good at living. If the two of them get married in the future, Ziyu will take care of the housekeeper clearly.
Liu Boen looked back at him, "Why are you smirking?"
Di Jinghong was still smirking, "It's nothing." Why did he think so far away?He pulled out the pen and paper from Liu Boen's waist, "I will lend you a pen and paper." He quickly wrote an IOU, and at the end he pressed a handprint with ink on it, and then returned the pen and paper to Liu Boen.
Liu Boen's sweet-scented osmanthus cakes were also wrapped. He pinched a piece and put it in his mouth. He chewed the sweet-scented osmanthus cakes bulgingly and looked at Di Jinghong. You're not even up yet."
Di Jinghong said: "If you don't pay it next year, you will pay it back the next year. In short, you can't take other people's things for nothing."
Liu Boen nodded and said: "Okay, let's take a walk with you, take a stroll, and you can still eat after eating sweet-scented osmanthus cakes."
The two turned a corner and went to Song Yi's blacksmith's shop. The shop was closed, but Di Jinghong knocked and no one answered. He folded the IOU and slipped it in through the crack of the door.After stuffing it in, I felt worried, lay down on the ground and looked again, then got up from the ground, clapped my hands, and said cheerfully: "This time I'm at ease, let's go, go back to work."
Liu Boen chewed the sweet-scented osmanthus crisps and nodded, "Today we did the errands so neatly, if Yu Qing doesn't praise me, I'll cry for him until he is willing to praise me."
Di Jinghong laughed and said, "Look at how promising you are, if Ziyu doesn't praise me, I'll..."
Liu Boen looked at him, "What about you? Could it be that you still dare to beat someone?"
Di Jinghong blushed suddenly, "What do you care about me? Anyway, Ziyu will definitely praise me, and he is not like Zhang Yuqing, who has a black nose and a black face all day long."
……
"Don't worry about talking, drink the medicine first." Zhen Ziyu brought a bowl of fried soup to Di Jinghong.
He had already heard from Wei Luo that Di Jinghong had taken too much of Wei Luo's peppermint pills. The pills were used to detoxify and reduce fire, and he would definitely have diarrhea when he woke up tomorrow morning.What exactly happened, Wei Luo hesitated, and only said that he gave it to him, and Di Jinghong ate it as a sugar pill.Yen Ziyu couldn't help complaining about Di Jinghong, how greedy is this, eating other people's pills as sugar pills?
But after thinking about it, he couldn't blame Di Jinghong for being greedy, because he was too strict with him, but he was not allowed to eat any sweets. Jin Jiuqi said that eating too much sweets would cause toothache.
Di Jinghong gulped down the soup, wiped his mouth and giggled, "Ziyu, I bought you sweet-scented osmanthus cakes."
Zhen Ziyu said: "I don't want to eat, keep it for Boen." He knew that Liu Boen liked to eat, Liu Boen was simple and honest, he liked to eat, drink and play but knew enough was enough, he was white and fat, just like a child, let One can't help but want to pity him.
Di Jinghong covered the half-kilo of sweet-scented osmanthus crisps, pouted and said, "He already ate a kilo, let's see if Yuqing wants him."
Liu Boen was chewing a mouthful of sweet-scented osmanthus crisps, when he heard Di Jinghong chanting, he couldn't chew anymore, and he couldn't bear to spit it out, and he looked aggrieved with it in his mouth.
Di Jinghong looked at his pitiful appearance, "Just kidding, eat, eat, no one wants you, go, go, take you to the room to eat, Yu Qing will come back tomorrow morning, we will come back again Check the clues and encircle them." Zhang Yuqing went to Ouyang's house to steal the register and accounts, and this work must be done at night.
Zhen Ziyu said: "Yes, Yu Qing won't be back until early tomorrow morning. When he comes back, let's discuss again. We will surround the clues that Wei Luo found with the clues you found, and see what results come out. The sky is already dark." It's late, it's been a busy day, let's rest first."
After Liu Boen and Wei Luo had left, Zhen Ziyu asked Di Jinghong, "What did you have?" Di Jinghong came back with a new sword.
Di Jinghong was waiting for Zhen Ziyu to ask, he sat on the chair, grabbed the person and hugged him into his arms, "Look, do you like it?"
Zhen Ziyu looked at him, and he smiled. Zhen Ziyu picked up the sword and drew it out, "Good sword, where did you get it?"
Di Jinghong smiled triumphantly, knowing that Ziyu would like it.
He held Ziyu's soft earlobe, and rubbed it in his mouth, licking it for a while before muttering: "I bought it at the blacksmith's shop, and I'll give it to you."
Zhen Ziyu didn't hide, and nestled in his arms obediently, letting him touch and play with the sword in his hand, "Where did you get the money?" He can have whatever reward he wants.
Di Jinghong changed his position, kissed his lips, "I sent a note."
Between his lips and teeth, Yen Ziyu hugged him and chuckled, "You are a foreigner, why should they ask you to pay you an IOU?"
Di Jinghong said: "The proprietress saw that I was handsome, and she was fascinated by me."
"fall down?"
"Hmm~"
"How did it fall?"
"Big brother will tell you now~ah."
"Hey~ Take it easy."
"Ziyu, how are my errands doing today?"
"improvise."
"I want a reward."
"A reward, right? Here it is."
"Hiss, Ziyu, don't bite me."
Zhen Ziyu pushed him away, got up and said, "Go take a shower first. It's hot, don't bother the store, you can go outside and wash yourself." He put away the sword, and like Di Jinghong, he drew it in and out, in and out .
I love it, it's a nice weapon.
Di Jinghong licked his lips, biting lightly, he smiled and said, "Ziyu, give it a name, I'll find a master to engrave it for you, what do you want to call it?"
Yen Ziyu pondered for a moment, then said, "Jiu Qi, long Jiu, miraculous Qi, I want to call it 'Jiu Qi'."
Di Jinghong went out to take a shower, and before he left, he kissed Zhen Ziyu on the forehead, "I'll find Master Song to engrave your lettering for you when I have time. Obediently wait for me to come back and hug you to sleep, and I will give you a reward."
Zhen Ziyu gave him a look, and said, "I wash my clothes before I come back." Where did I get a scent, the stinky sweat can't cover it, and I want a reward, it's good if I don't kick you.
by the well.
Liu Boen sniffed his nose, "What's the smell? It smells so good." After taking a shower, he looked up to see Di Jinghong squatting by the well, rubbing his clothes, "What did you sprinkle in the basin?" After taking a shower, The aroma was even stronger.
Di Jinghong sniffed his nose, but there was no smell?
Liu Boen said: "Be careful, don't be discovered by Ziyu, such a strong fragrance, and you still say no." He got up and said, "Let's go, you can do it yourself."
Di Jinghong sniffed his nose again, feeling dizzy for a while. He got up and froze his clothes, walked back unsteadily, and knocked on the door frame with a bang when he entered.
Zhen Ziyu hurried over to help him, "What's wrong?"
Di Jinghong fell headfirst on the bed, "Ziyu, I'm dizzy."
"Are you tired?" Yen Ziyu helped him brush his hair again, and turned off the light, "Go to sleep if you're tired."
Di Jinghong hugged Yen Ziyu, groaning, "I'm not tired, I'm just uncomfortable, very uncomfortable."
Zhen Ziyu frowned, "Di Jinghong, don't pinch me, take it easy, it hurts~ ah~ it hurts~" Di Jinghong seemed crazy, he had never done this before, as if he wanted to swallow people whole, Then eat it in your stomach before finishing it. Yen Ziyu couldn't bear it, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, but he still didn't push him away.Once the errands are done, the rewards promised, and what you say will be done.
It seems to be raining again outside, Yangzhou is not like Chang'an, there is surprisingly a lot of rain, there is only a patter at night, most of the time it is light rain, it seems that the night is specially designed to clean the filth of the day, and put on new clothes in the morning, Show it brightly in front of the world, and live happily.
Zhen Ziyu wanted to get up and close the window, but Di Jinghong grabbed him and wouldn't let him go. When the two of them were together, Zhen Ziyu was always very patient and soft, even his temper was soft, follow him, let him go , used to him.When he was happy, Yen Ziyu exhaled heavily, and then inhaled lightly. In the clean rainy night, he was extremely comfortable.
Di Jinghong was dripping with sweat, his face was flushed, he still held the man and refused to let go, as if he would run away as soon as he let go.
A light flashed outside the window, and thunder rumbled in the distance. Zhen Ziyu put on his clothes and stood up, saying, "I'm going to close the window, it looks like I'm going to go to school tonight, and I don't know how Yu Qing is."
Just as Zhen Ziyu's hand touched the window lattice, his back stiffened. At some point, Di Jinghong chased him and pressed him against the window frame without saying a word.
Yen Ziyu said softly, "Let me close the window."
Di Jinghong clung to him, "Don't worry about it, I'm hot, open the window to cool off."
"It's raining heavily."
"Well, I like it."
"Then let's go back."
"No, I like it here."
"Di Jinghong, it won't work here, it's raining heavily."
"I don't, I say yes."
Di Jinghong became stubborn like a child, and stretched out his arms to enclose people within his sphere of influence. Zhen Ziyu shook his head helplessly, and reached out to stroke his soft hair, "You are not good again, you always In this way, I will scare away."
Di Jinghong stared at him with wide eyes, his eyes changing in the flash, he lowered his head, and bit Yen Ziyu's shoulder hard, with the smell of blood, "Ziyu won't leave, I won't let you Walk."
Yen Ziyu gritted his teeth and remained silent.Di Jinghong became fierce without warning, and swallowed people in the torrential rain of lightning and thunder. Zhen Ziyu raised his head to meet the cold raindrops, hit his face hard, and then slid down his neck. They meet and become warm and scalding hot.
At night, it also boiled hot.
Yen Ziyu passed out comfortably, and slept until the next morning.
Di Jinghong was woken up by the birds outside the window, he turned his head and glanced at Zhen Ziyu, Yen Ziyu didn't get up early, but still fell asleep in a drowsy state, as if he was extremely tired, his brows frowned, twisted into a ball The word Chuan looked particularly abrupt on a clean face.Di Jinghong felt a little distressed, and couldn't help reaching out to caress Ziyu's brow, wanting to stretch it out for Zhen Ziyu, he couldn't see Zhen Ziyu worrying.
As soon as his hand touched his brow, Zhen Ziyu snorted, subconsciously avoided him, and then turned over.Di Jinghong's eyes dimmed little by little, Yen Ziyu's back was exposed, mottled and shocking, like an accusation of an execution, luo was exposed in front of Di Jinghong.
Di Jinghong's hands trembled a little. He lightly touched Zhen Ziyu's back, and he trembled with fright as soon as he touched it. Could it be that he did all of this?Di Jinghong shook his head vigorously, unable to remember what he did last night.In the past, after the end, he would remember every look and every sound of Ziyu's eyes clearly, and he could linger in his heart for a long time.
There was such a commotion last night, why did he forget all about it?He grabbed a handful of hair vigorously, hating himself for not being light or heavy.Why didn't Ziyu push him away?Ziyu was really kind to him.
Di Jinghong angrily threw himself back on the bed, bastard.No matter how much Ziyu pampers him, he can't go too far.
Annoyed and ashamed.
There was a knock on the door, and it was urgent.
Di Jinghong wiped his face and replied, "Here you come, don't knock, what's the hurry?" He put on his clothes, covered Zhen Ziyu with the quilt, got up to open the door, and just got off the bed, his feet were a little restless.
He made up his mind and continued to move forward.
When the door opened, Liu Boen panicked and said: "Jinghong, quickly hide." Liu Boen wanted to squeeze into the room while speaking.
Di Jinghong blocked him from the door suddenly, and said, "What's the matter? Ziyu is still asleep, please keep your voice down." There was a commotion outside the room, and someone shouted downstairs.
Liu Boen said: "People from the government are here to arrest us."
Di Jinghong said: "What are you arresting us for?"
Liu Boen stomped anxiously, "Really, I didn't lie to you, what time is it, Huang Laoqi is dead."
They lived on the second floor. There were hurried footsteps on the stairs, and Liu Boen turned his head in shock, "The yamen servant is here. It's too late if we don't leave."
Di Jinghong let him go into the room, and said, "Where's Wei Luo?"
Liu Boen said: "Wei Luo got up early and went to Tianning Temple to look for clues, but he hasn't come back yet."
Di Jinghong said: "Take Ziyu and go together. Ziyu..."
Yen Ziyu was woken up by them and had already got up and dressed.He heard the conversation between Di Jinghong and Liu Boen, and said to them: "Jinghong, you take Boen away quickly, I'm not feeling well, I can't go, I'll stay and ask the reason, so I can call you. "
Di Jinghong refused, "No, we have to go together. If you stay, you are an accomplice. They will not let you go."
Yen Ziyu coughed twice. He was exposed to the rain last night, and he caught a cold, and his body was injured again, so he had a fever at this time.Zhen Ziyu pushed Di Jinghong out, "Hurry up, don't dawdle, you won't be able to leave if you don't, go to the window." Seeing that Di Jinghong refused to leave, he comforted him: "Even if I go in, you can Help me, if they all go in, they will really be taken over."
Liu Boen pulled Di Jinghong, "Let's go, Jinghong, after Wei Luo and Yu Qing come back, we will definitely be able to rescue Ziyu. How can you let the two of them save the three of them?"
Di Jinghong's eyes were red.
Zhen Ziyu threw the sword to him, "Take Jiuqi and go."
……
Ouyang Jianguang's private residence.
Xiao Yanfeng knelt beside him, and lightly beat his leg.Ouyang Jianguang glanced at the young man beside him, who reluctantly withdrew.
Ouyang Jianguang said: "I heard that the governor arrested Guanlan judge, and Di Jinghong went in?"
Xiao Yanfeng said: "Fifth Master, it's not Di Jinghong."
Ouyang Jianguang was displeased, "It's not Di Jinghong, why did you come here so sullenly to ask for credit? Get lost!"
Xiao Yanfeng withdrew her hands, leaned over and said, "It's Zhen Ziyu."
Ouyang Jianguang shook his hand and gave him a slap in the face, blood dripping from his hand.Bright red blood beads flowed down the corner of Xiao Yanfeng's mouth. Instead of panicking, he smiled seductively, "Fifth Lord, Yen Ziyu went in, and the rest of them ran away. Don't tell me that Yen Ziyu is up to you!" Deal with it? Lord Inspector will not oppose you because of a small judge."
Xiao Yanfeng understood Ouyang Jianguang very well.
He kept a hand yesterday and put medicine in Di Jinghong's clothes. If the medicine gets wet, it will smell fragrant.They must have been tossing hard last night, so Zhen Ziyu didn't run away, but was arrested by the government.
Xiao Yanfeng's single-handed situation has all come true, and she can't help but feel a little proud.But he didn't dare to tell Ouyang Jianguang the truth. Ouyang Jianguang is currently in love with Zhen Ziyu. If he knew that the person he was thinking of was with someone last night...he would definitely go crazy.
Ouyang Jianguang is brave and foolhardy, he is good at eating, drinking and having fun, but he can't carry anything beside him.
Ouyang Jianguang calmed down his anger, and after a while, his face was filled with complacency.He hooked his fingers, and Xiao Yanfeng obediently climbed onto him.
Ouyang Jianguang raised his hand and wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb, and then put his finger into his mouth. Xiaoyan fiddled with that finger like a chicken, humming so that it made people feel itchy.
Xiaoyan Fengtian cleaned her blood, rubbed it against Ouyang Jianguang's arms again, and said coquettishly: "Fifth Master, Yan Feng wears the thing you appreciate day and night."
Ouyang Jianguang sneered, "What do you mean you wear it day and night, can you resist not looking for a man?"
Xiao Yanfeng said: "Fifth Lord, don't make fun of Yanfeng. Without Fifth Master, even a dog would not dare to touch Yanfeng."
Ouyang Jianguang said: "Okay, I will reward you with a dog."
Xiao Yanfeng smiled charmingly, and said: "Fifth Master, don't scare Yanfeng, Yanfeng can't help being frightened, it's time to dream at night. In the past few days, Yanfeng has dreamed every night that you will be rewarding at night."
Ouyang Jianguang said: "You don't have to dream in the future. Tonight, I want to invite the governor to have a drink. You will serve the governor on my behalf. If you serve him comfortably, the reward will be doubled. Didn't he always want to treat you Did you get it? You were rewarded to Lu Lin at the banquet a few days ago, seeing how greedy he was, the hala almost flowed out."
Xiao Yanfeng said: "Which Lord Wu wants Yanfeng to serve, Yanfeng will do his best, but Yanfeng only has you in his heart."
Ouyang Jianguang pressed his ear and said: "Just think of him as me. If he makes you unhappy, isn't there something that I will reward you with? After this job is done, I will reward you again." Stuff, I'm sure you've never seen it before."
Xiao Yanfeng knew that enough was enough for today, "Yanfeng will thank Fifth Master first."
……
When Wei Luo and Zhang Yuqing came back, the inn was surrounded by officers and soldiers, and they turned to another secret location.
Judge Guanlan has a habit of going down the mountain to handle cases. Wherever he goes, there are three caves for cunning rabbits.After they arrive in Yangzhou, the first place to stay is the inn, and at the same time they will agree on two other places to stay. If there is an accident midway, they will go to the second place to gather. Three landing places.
The second landed in Guanyin Mountain.
When Wei Luo and Zhang Yuqing arrived, Liu Boen was persuading Di Jinghong. Di Jinghong was worried about Zhen Ziyu, so he had no choice but to blame himself.
Zhen Ziyu was taken away by officers and soldiers, everyone was waiting for Zhang Yuqing to make up his mind.
Zhang Yuqing said: "According to the accounts of the Ouyang family, the original owner of that night pearl was Lu Lin."
Wei Luodao: "The news I inquired is also true. Lu Lin came from Wuxi with his wife and children. When he first arrived in Yangzhou, he had nothing to rely on. Later, he flattered him a lot and climbed up the big tree of Ouyang's house. From then on, he was like a fish in water in Yangzhou. Mrs. Yang of the Lu family celebrates her birthday. It is said that Lu Lin gave a generous gift, and even the well-informed Yang is full of praise."
"Lu Lin is very tactful. After he arrived in Yangzhou, he made contacts everywhere. Not only did he win the trust of the Yang family, but he also had a hot fight with the Ouyang brothers. It was given to him. It was rumored in Yangzhou that the Lu family would become the second Ouyang family."
Zhang Yuqing said: "Why did Ouyang's family fall out with Lu Lin again? He was so frightened that he left his family and business and flew away. It must be a matter of life and death for him to make up his mind."
Wei Luodao: "Lu Lin and Ouyang's family turned against each other shortly after he got Xiao Yanfeng. There are different opinions on the specific reasons, and it doesn't sound very plausible."
Zhang Yuqing handed the dumb girl portrait drawn by Liu Boen to Lu Lin, "Who do you see in this portrait?"
Wei Luo looked and looked, raised his head and said, "Xiao Yanfeng?"
Zhang Yuqing said: "That's right, it's Xiao Yanfeng. The height and appearance of this person described by Huang Laoqi is basically the same as Xiao Yanfeng."
Di Jinghong and Liu Boen only felt that the dumb girl looked familiar, but neither thought that the dumb girl was a man in disguise.
Zhang Yuqing said: "The reason why he dressed up as a dumb girl must be because he was afraid of being exposed. Huang Laoqi's death was most likely caused by Xiao Yanfeng. I'm afraid he followed you all the time if you ran out of Hehua Lane yesterday. "
Wei Luo said: "That's right. Lu Lin disappeared. There are rumors in the market that he provoked the Ouyang family, scared him away, or was secretly killed by the Ouyang family. But after you arrived in Yangzhou, you looked for Lu Lin everywhere. From the beginning to the end, Ouyang They didn't show up, and there was no movement. They didn't care about this matter at all. This shows that the rumors are not true. Lu Lin ran because he wanted to run, and no one forced him. Otherwise, with the influence of the Ouyang family , even if he goes to Chang'an, it will be easy to kill him."
Zhang Yuqing said: "Then why did he go to Chang'an so hard?"
Wei Luo said: "You have to ask Xiao Yanfeng about it. From the accent, Xiao Yanfeng must be from Chang'an. The gossip I heard is true. He came to Yangzhou two years ago, and he hooked up with him when he first arrived. Ouyang Jianguang. It is said that in order to attract Ouyang Jianguang's favor, he deliberately blocked Ouyang Jianguang's sedan chair and made a big fuss. That's right, everyone in Yangzhou City knows about this."
Zhang Yuqing said: "Chang'an...Xiao Yanfeng is here for Ouyang's family, so it should be planned before coming."
Wei Luo said: "I have tried that little Yanfeng, he is very skillful, he can fight me for a few rounds, Ouyang Jianguang is definitely not his opponent, and Xiao Yanfeng is good at using poison, he can disguise himself, he is a ruthless character. There must be a purpose for this kind of person to commit himself to Ouyang, submit to his will, and be ordered around by him at will."
Zhang Yuqing said, "I'll go down the mountain."
Di Jinghong and the others also got up and said, "Where are you going?"
Zhang Yuqing said: "Go to Ouyang's house. Xiao Yanfeng's goal is definitely not the luminous pearl. I have to ask Yang in person what they took away."
Di Jinghong asked anxiously: "What about Ziyu? We have to save him quickly, the night is full of dreams."
Zhang Yuqing said: "Someone will come to deliver a letter to you later. After you receive the letter, go to the appointed place and wait for me. At that time, you will have a countermeasure." He pressed Di Jinghong's shoulder, "Be safe and don't be impatient. , Ziyu is from Guanlan, the governor dare not do anything to him." After finishing speaking, he patted Di Jinghong on the shoulder and went down the mountain with his sword in hand.
After Zhang Yuqing left, a few people were waiting for news at Guanyin Mountain, but they didn't see anyone for a long time. Seeing that it was getting dark, Di Jinghong hurried around, "Wei Luo, there will be no accidents in Yuqing, right? Otherwise, let's go down the mountain Looking for news?"
Wei Luo said: "Yuqing has made an arrangement, let's wait a little longer and rush down the mountain,
Di Jinghong snorted and said, "Three broken keys, you told me it was a big job?"
Huang Laoqi is about fifty years old, thin and thin, and Di Jinghong stands in front of him like a big Buddha, he is as tall as he is, and he is rich at both ends.Di Jinghong's voice was not high, but his words were full of aura. Huang Laoqi was so frightened that he opened his mouth and then closed it. He is a shrewd person. When he doesn't know what to say, he knows how to shut his mouth obediently. .
Seeing this, Di Jinghong felt more confident.Instead, he stopped asking questions, found a bench and sat down with his feet upright, playing with the sword he just got, pulling it out and putting it in, sending it in and pulling it out, the scabbard rattled, making Huang Lao Qi tremble .Di Jinghong played with his sword and gave Liu Boen a wink.
Liu Boen understood, and grinningly negotiated the conditions with Huang Laoqi, "Our boss has a bad temper, you should think about it, we will use this thing tomorrow, and we can't make it... Huh, I can't guarantee that your small shop will It's still open the day after tomorrow."
The little fat man was talking with a smile on his face, and his peach blossom eyes kept blinking. No matter how Huang Laoqi looked at Liu Boen, he looked like a smiling tiger.
Having been in this business for a long time, Huang Laoqi knew that thieves like the big man and the little fat man were either fierce and vicious, or treacherous and suspicious. For a good partner, no wonder two people with non-local accents can do "business" in Yangzhou.
The two in front of me are not easy to mess with, and Huang Laoqi is timid and afraid of getting into trouble, so if he can fool him, he will fool him.Huang Laoqi said: "The two guest officials are not locals, are they?"
Liu Boen said: "What's the matter, you don't entertain people who are not local?"
Huang Laoqidui laughed and said: "That can't be done, that can't be done, I mean, in our Yangzhou, there is a rule in the key making business, if you make a key with a paper pattern, you can't produce two of the same key within a month, this month is a small one." The shop has already issued a longevity key, so... hehe, I really dare not issue a second key."
Liu Boen frowned and said, "Rules? Which established the rules?" Liu Boen has also solved many theft cases, big and small, and has never heard of such strange rules.The little fat man frowned and stopped smiling, which was quite scary.
Huang Laoqi said: "Isn't this a rule set by the gang leaders in the city? If everyone walks through the same door and bumps into colleagues twice in three days, then there will be a fight? Fight... Everyone business is not doing well.”
There are several gangs of thieves in Yangzhou City, who used to fight openly and covertly, and they have suffered damage in the long run, especially weddings, weddings, birthdays and festivals, which are good days for thieves to make a fortune, and they often fight when they look up and look down.So several big gangs negotiated and set a rule, agreeing that the same key cannot be used within one month, which is actually equivalent to painting the territory. I will steal the old Li’s house, and you will steal the old Wang’s house. Water does not violate river water.
When Liu Boen and Di Jinghong heard this, they felt happy. The rules are well established. Who is the thief who is so far-sighted and has set the goal of the investigation as a target, piu~ just move your fingers a little, It hits the bull's-eye, which is so sweet.
As soon as Huang Laoqi finished speaking, Di Jinghong drew out his sword, clanged off a corner of the broken table beside him, flicked the blade of the sword, and dinged, "Not bad." He squinted at Huang Laoqi and grinned. , "I just bought it, let me borrow your desk to try it out."
Huang Laoqi's feet softened and he almost knelt down.
Di Jinghong said: "You said you made a longevity-shaped key and you just made one? There is no proof for what you say. I don't believe it. Let me take out the mold and have a look."
Huang Laoqi looked distressed, and said: "The mold is the housekeeper's job of the small shop, this..."
Di Jinghong commanded Liu Boen and said: "It's getting late, I don't think there are any customers coming to the door, please help the shopkeeper close the shop."
When Di Jinghong said this, Huang Laoqi became even more frightened, "Don't close it, don't close it." When the shop was closed, no one would know that Di Jinghong wiped him off. Yue has indeed produced a key with the characters of longevity and a key with the characters of happiness. The key with the characters of auspicious characters has not been released yet. I can make auspicious characters for you. Don’t make things difficult for me. Two outsiders can't afford to offend the local snakes in the city, if they run into each other, it will be you who will suffer."
Di Jinghong didn't answer, but asked Huang Laoqi, "I heard you have an only son?"
Huang Laoqi was shocked again.
Liu Boen answered for him, "Yes, he is proficient in eating and drinking piaodu, which kiln my son is probably drinking at now."
Huang Laoqi was so frightened that he sat on the ground. From this point of view, he came here knowing the truth.
Di Jinghong bent down suddenly, squinted his eyes and approached Huang Laoqi, and said in a deep voice, "Huang Laoqi, who did you make the longevity-shaped key and the happy-shaped key you made a few days ago?"
Huang Lao Qi gritted his teeth, his heart skipped a beat, and he slammed his head on the ground, "You two young masters, Huang Lao Qi will die if we talk about this matter, please hold your hands high."
Di Jinghong thought in his heart that Huang Laoqi should be a cautious person to do this business. He hasn't had any troubles in these years, so many people ask him to do things.Seeing that Di Jinghong and Liu Boen were outsiders and young, he negligently disclosed the details to them, but today he stumbled, and his business in this small shop can be regarded as a leader.
Di Jinghong said: "Don't worry, God knows this matter, you know we both know it, we will never leave this small shop. As long as you make it clear, we will not make things difficult for you. To tell you the truth, our brothers travel around the rivers and rivers , you can play wherever you go, you have to earn some travel expenses, don’t you? We are unfamiliar with Yangzhou, and we are afraid of colliding with local snakes, so I came to you to find out. Tell me about the three keys that you ordered recently. Which are they all?"
Huang Laoqi said: "I dare not say the name of the person. If I say it, I will..." He made a suicidal gesture, and then said, "I made a longevity lock and a happy lock this month. The king of the family said that he lost his dowry when he married a daughter-in-law, so I guess that Xizi lock has been...used."
Di Jinghong said: "Where is the longevity lock?"
Huang Laoqi said: "The Shouzi lock was ordered by a dumb woman. I haven't heard of anyone throwing things away during their birthday this month, so don't order that key."
Di Jinghong said: "What does that dumb girl look like?"
Huang Laoqi simply resigned to his fate, and since he said it, he didn't hide it, "The dumb girl covered her face, so she couldn't see what she looked like, she was tall, graceful, and pretty."
"How tall?"
"It's about five feet tall, half a head taller than me."
"how old?"
"Seventeen or eighteen years old."
"A regular customer?"
"She's here for the first time."
"Are you sure she's dumb?"
"No... not sure, but she took a piece of paper with gestures and didn't say anything."
"What about the paper pattern?"
"There are rules in the industry, and the paper pattern will be burned in front of her when it is shipped."
Thoughtful, Di Jinghong said: "Boen, draw it." Seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls are five feet tall, which is rare in Yangzhou, and she is also a dumb girl. It shouldn't be too hard to find.
Liu Boen took out a pen and paper, asked Huang Laoqi to speak more carefully, drew the face of the dumb girl, and handed it to Di Jinghong after the drawing.
Di Jinghong took the portrait, and it was really pretty. He looked at it carefully for a while, and the eyes seemed familiar, and he didn't know where he saw them.Di Jinghong took the portrait, threw some broken silver to Huang Laoqi, and said, "Make that lucky lock, and pick it up tomorrow."
Huang Laoqi said: "How dare you ask for money from the two of you, you can come to pick up the goods tomorrow."
Di Jinghong said: "Of course we will give you what we should give you, just keep it." After finishing speaking, he called Liu Boen and went out.
Huang Laoqi was trembling and paralyzed on the ground, unable to get up. The customers didn't even deliver them when they went out. When Liu Boen and the others were far away, he quickly closed the shop and locked it.
As soon as the lock was released, a short knife was put on Huang Laoqi's neck, and Huang Laoqi begged for mercy again, "I have done as you told me, so please forgive me."
A voice in the inner room was cold and unpredictable, "I told you to send them away, but I didn't tell you about your portrait."
Huang Laoqi said: "If I don't paint, they won't spare me. Besides, you're covered and you've changed your clothes, they won't be able to tell."
The voice snorted coldly: "Heaven and earth, I am the number one beauty. Do you mean that I am vulgar?"
Huang Laoqi knelt on the ground, not daring to speak any more. He stretched out his head and locked his head with a knife. He could only resign himself to fate.
After a while, the people in the back room said: "Let's go, this pickled land is disgusting."
The entourage in the outer room raised the knife and dropped it, Huang Laoqi was decapitated.
The back room was humane: "Help them go to the yamen to report a case, they have been busy for a long time, we can't let them work for nothing."
……
After a hard day's work, he finally paid off, and at least he was able to do business when he went back. Di Jinghong was in a happy mood, and he started to walk jerkily, wishing he could run back to the inn to ask for credit from Yen Ziyu.
Liu Boen's short legs hurried to catch up with him, panting, "Go slowly, what's the hurry?"
Di Jinghong said: "Who made your legs grow so short? You blame me for walking fast. Hurry up. No matter how late you are, you won't be able to catch up with dinner."
Liu Boen grabbed him, "Speaking of eating, you still owe me something."
Di Jinghong pretended to be stupid, "What is it?"
Boss Liu Boen was not happy, "Didn't you say to buy me sweet-scented osmanthus cakes? Turn around and forget about it?"
Di Jinghong pointed to the shops on both sides of the street, and said: "Look, they are all closed. Which one still sells sweet-scented osmanthus cakes at this late hour, and I can buy them for you some other day~ah." Di Jinghong didn't even dare to say "tomorrow" , if he said "buy it tomorrow", this foodie will definitely pester him all day tomorrow.
Liu Boen muttered, dragging him not to let go, suddenly his eyes lit up, and said: "That shop is still open."
Di Jinghong looked up, right? There is a dim sum shop still open.Di Jinghong couldn't evade it, so he took Liu Boen to buy it, "Boss, a catty of sweet-scented osmanthus crisps."
The boss responded.Liu Boen hurriedly said: "Boss, two catties."
Di Jinghong said: "Hey~ Liu Boen, I promised you to buy one catty. Can you eat that much at night?"
Liu Boen said: "I said I want to eat one catty, but you only buy one catty, why don't you give it to Ziyu?"
"I..." Di Jinghong said, "Why don't you give Ziyu half a catty?"
Liu Boen rolled his eyes at him and said, "Yes, I don't need to tell you, you will definitely give Ziyu half a catty. In this way, I still don't have enough to eat. Boss, two catties."
Di Jinghong scolded "foodie" and yelled into the shop, "Boss, a catty and a half... Ziyu can't eat as much as you."
"Cut~ up to you, anyway, I will eat a catty." Liu Boen instructed the boss on tiptoe, "Put more, put another one, put another one."
The boss smiled and said: "All right, all right, you can't miss a penny." The proprietress was not happy, "The head of the house, it's almost there, it's almost there, if you do business like this, our shop will lose everything, eh."
Di Jinghong was amused by the two of them, the fireworks in this market place made people feel at ease.His family, Ziyu, is also good at living. If the two of them get married in the future, Ziyu will take care of the housekeeper clearly.
Liu Boen looked back at him, "Why are you smirking?"
Di Jinghong was still smirking, "It's nothing." Why did he think so far away?He pulled out the pen and paper from Liu Boen's waist, "I will lend you a pen and paper." He quickly wrote an IOU, and at the end he pressed a handprint with ink on it, and then returned the pen and paper to Liu Boen.
Liu Boen's sweet-scented osmanthus cakes were also wrapped. He pinched a piece and put it in his mouth. He chewed the sweet-scented osmanthus cakes bulgingly and looked at Di Jinghong. You're not even up yet."
Di Jinghong said: "If you don't pay it next year, you will pay it back the next year. In short, you can't take other people's things for nothing."
Liu Boen nodded and said: "Okay, let's take a walk with you, take a stroll, and you can still eat after eating sweet-scented osmanthus cakes."
The two turned a corner and went to Song Yi's blacksmith's shop. The shop was closed, but Di Jinghong knocked and no one answered. He folded the IOU and slipped it in through the crack of the door.After stuffing it in, I felt worried, lay down on the ground and looked again, then got up from the ground, clapped my hands, and said cheerfully: "This time I'm at ease, let's go, go back to work."
Liu Boen chewed the sweet-scented osmanthus crisps and nodded, "Today we did the errands so neatly, if Yu Qing doesn't praise me, I'll cry for him until he is willing to praise me."
Di Jinghong laughed and said, "Look at how promising you are, if Ziyu doesn't praise me, I'll..."
Liu Boen looked at him, "What about you? Could it be that you still dare to beat someone?"
Di Jinghong blushed suddenly, "What do you care about me? Anyway, Ziyu will definitely praise me, and he is not like Zhang Yuqing, who has a black nose and a black face all day long."
……
"Don't worry about talking, drink the medicine first." Zhen Ziyu brought a bowl of fried soup to Di Jinghong.
He had already heard from Wei Luo that Di Jinghong had taken too much of Wei Luo's peppermint pills. The pills were used to detoxify and reduce fire, and he would definitely have diarrhea when he woke up tomorrow morning.What exactly happened, Wei Luo hesitated, and only said that he gave it to him, and Di Jinghong ate it as a sugar pill.Yen Ziyu couldn't help complaining about Di Jinghong, how greedy is this, eating other people's pills as sugar pills?
But after thinking about it, he couldn't blame Di Jinghong for being greedy, because he was too strict with him, but he was not allowed to eat any sweets. Jin Jiuqi said that eating too much sweets would cause toothache.
Di Jinghong gulped down the soup, wiped his mouth and giggled, "Ziyu, I bought you sweet-scented osmanthus cakes."
Zhen Ziyu said: "I don't want to eat, keep it for Boen." He knew that Liu Boen liked to eat, Liu Boen was simple and honest, he liked to eat, drink and play but knew enough was enough, he was white and fat, just like a child, let One can't help but want to pity him.
Di Jinghong covered the half-kilo of sweet-scented osmanthus crisps, pouted and said, "He already ate a kilo, let's see if Yuqing wants him."
Liu Boen was chewing a mouthful of sweet-scented osmanthus crisps, when he heard Di Jinghong chanting, he couldn't chew anymore, and he couldn't bear to spit it out, and he looked aggrieved with it in his mouth.
Di Jinghong looked at his pitiful appearance, "Just kidding, eat, eat, no one wants you, go, go, take you to the room to eat, Yu Qing will come back tomorrow morning, we will come back again Check the clues and encircle them." Zhang Yuqing went to Ouyang's house to steal the register and accounts, and this work must be done at night.
Zhen Ziyu said: "Yes, Yu Qing won't be back until early tomorrow morning. When he comes back, let's discuss again. We will surround the clues that Wei Luo found with the clues you found, and see what results come out. The sky is already dark." It's late, it's been a busy day, let's rest first."
After Liu Boen and Wei Luo had left, Zhen Ziyu asked Di Jinghong, "What did you have?" Di Jinghong came back with a new sword.
Di Jinghong was waiting for Zhen Ziyu to ask, he sat on the chair, grabbed the person and hugged him into his arms, "Look, do you like it?"
Zhen Ziyu looked at him, and he smiled. Zhen Ziyu picked up the sword and drew it out, "Good sword, where did you get it?"
Di Jinghong smiled triumphantly, knowing that Ziyu would like it.
He held Ziyu's soft earlobe, and rubbed it in his mouth, licking it for a while before muttering: "I bought it at the blacksmith's shop, and I'll give it to you."
Zhen Ziyu didn't hide, and nestled in his arms obediently, letting him touch and play with the sword in his hand, "Where did you get the money?" He can have whatever reward he wants.
Di Jinghong changed his position, kissed his lips, "I sent a note."
Between his lips and teeth, Yen Ziyu hugged him and chuckled, "You are a foreigner, why should they ask you to pay you an IOU?"
Di Jinghong said: "The proprietress saw that I was handsome, and she was fascinated by me."
"fall down?"
"Hmm~"
"How did it fall?"
"Big brother will tell you now~ah."
"Hey~ Take it easy."
"Ziyu, how are my errands doing today?"
"improvise."
"I want a reward."
"A reward, right? Here it is."
"Hiss, Ziyu, don't bite me."
Zhen Ziyu pushed him away, got up and said, "Go take a shower first. It's hot, don't bother the store, you can go outside and wash yourself." He put away the sword, and like Di Jinghong, he drew it in and out, in and out .
I love it, it's a nice weapon.
Di Jinghong licked his lips, biting lightly, he smiled and said, "Ziyu, give it a name, I'll find a master to engrave it for you, what do you want to call it?"
Yen Ziyu pondered for a moment, then said, "Jiu Qi, long Jiu, miraculous Qi, I want to call it 'Jiu Qi'."
Di Jinghong went out to take a shower, and before he left, he kissed Zhen Ziyu on the forehead, "I'll find Master Song to engrave your lettering for you when I have time. Obediently wait for me to come back and hug you to sleep, and I will give you a reward."
Zhen Ziyu gave him a look, and said, "I wash my clothes before I come back." Where did I get a scent, the stinky sweat can't cover it, and I want a reward, it's good if I don't kick you.
by the well.
Liu Boen sniffed his nose, "What's the smell? It smells so good." After taking a shower, he looked up to see Di Jinghong squatting by the well, rubbing his clothes, "What did you sprinkle in the basin?" After taking a shower, The aroma was even stronger.
Di Jinghong sniffed his nose, but there was no smell?
Liu Boen said: "Be careful, don't be discovered by Ziyu, such a strong fragrance, and you still say no." He got up and said, "Let's go, you can do it yourself."
Di Jinghong sniffed his nose again, feeling dizzy for a while. He got up and froze his clothes, walked back unsteadily, and knocked on the door frame with a bang when he entered.
Zhen Ziyu hurried over to help him, "What's wrong?"
Di Jinghong fell headfirst on the bed, "Ziyu, I'm dizzy."
"Are you tired?" Yen Ziyu helped him brush his hair again, and turned off the light, "Go to sleep if you're tired."
Di Jinghong hugged Yen Ziyu, groaning, "I'm not tired, I'm just uncomfortable, very uncomfortable."
Zhen Ziyu frowned, "Di Jinghong, don't pinch me, take it easy, it hurts~ ah~ it hurts~" Di Jinghong seemed crazy, he had never done this before, as if he wanted to swallow people whole, Then eat it in your stomach before finishing it. Yen Ziyu couldn't bear it, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, but he still didn't push him away.Once the errands are done, the rewards promised, and what you say will be done.
It seems to be raining again outside, Yangzhou is not like Chang'an, there is surprisingly a lot of rain, there is only a patter at night, most of the time it is light rain, it seems that the night is specially designed to clean the filth of the day, and put on new clothes in the morning, Show it brightly in front of the world, and live happily.
Zhen Ziyu wanted to get up and close the window, but Di Jinghong grabbed him and wouldn't let him go. When the two of them were together, Zhen Ziyu was always very patient and soft, even his temper was soft, follow him, let him go , used to him.When he was happy, Yen Ziyu exhaled heavily, and then inhaled lightly. In the clean rainy night, he was extremely comfortable.
Di Jinghong was dripping with sweat, his face was flushed, he still held the man and refused to let go, as if he would run away as soon as he let go.
A light flashed outside the window, and thunder rumbled in the distance. Zhen Ziyu put on his clothes and stood up, saying, "I'm going to close the window, it looks like I'm going to go to school tonight, and I don't know how Yu Qing is."
Just as Zhen Ziyu's hand touched the window lattice, his back stiffened. At some point, Di Jinghong chased him and pressed him against the window frame without saying a word.
Yen Ziyu said softly, "Let me close the window."
Di Jinghong clung to him, "Don't worry about it, I'm hot, open the window to cool off."
"It's raining heavily."
"Well, I like it."
"Then let's go back."
"No, I like it here."
"Di Jinghong, it won't work here, it's raining heavily."
"I don't, I say yes."
Di Jinghong became stubborn like a child, and stretched out his arms to enclose people within his sphere of influence. Zhen Ziyu shook his head helplessly, and reached out to stroke his soft hair, "You are not good again, you always In this way, I will scare away."
Di Jinghong stared at him with wide eyes, his eyes changing in the flash, he lowered his head, and bit Yen Ziyu's shoulder hard, with the smell of blood, "Ziyu won't leave, I won't let you Walk."
Yen Ziyu gritted his teeth and remained silent.Di Jinghong became fierce without warning, and swallowed people in the torrential rain of lightning and thunder. Zhen Ziyu raised his head to meet the cold raindrops, hit his face hard, and then slid down his neck. They meet and become warm and scalding hot.
At night, it also boiled hot.
Yen Ziyu passed out comfortably, and slept until the next morning.
Di Jinghong was woken up by the birds outside the window, he turned his head and glanced at Zhen Ziyu, Yen Ziyu didn't get up early, but still fell asleep in a drowsy state, as if he was extremely tired, his brows frowned, twisted into a ball The word Chuan looked particularly abrupt on a clean face.Di Jinghong felt a little distressed, and couldn't help reaching out to caress Ziyu's brow, wanting to stretch it out for Zhen Ziyu, he couldn't see Zhen Ziyu worrying.
As soon as his hand touched his brow, Zhen Ziyu snorted, subconsciously avoided him, and then turned over.Di Jinghong's eyes dimmed little by little, Yen Ziyu's back was exposed, mottled and shocking, like an accusation of an execution, luo was exposed in front of Di Jinghong.
Di Jinghong's hands trembled a little. He lightly touched Zhen Ziyu's back, and he trembled with fright as soon as he touched it. Could it be that he did all of this?Di Jinghong shook his head vigorously, unable to remember what he did last night.In the past, after the end, he would remember every look and every sound of Ziyu's eyes clearly, and he could linger in his heart for a long time.
There was such a commotion last night, why did he forget all about it?He grabbed a handful of hair vigorously, hating himself for not being light or heavy.Why didn't Ziyu push him away?Ziyu was really kind to him.
Di Jinghong angrily threw himself back on the bed, bastard.No matter how much Ziyu pampers him, he can't go too far.
Annoyed and ashamed.
There was a knock on the door, and it was urgent.
Di Jinghong wiped his face and replied, "Here you come, don't knock, what's the hurry?" He put on his clothes, covered Zhen Ziyu with the quilt, got up to open the door, and just got off the bed, his feet were a little restless.
He made up his mind and continued to move forward.
When the door opened, Liu Boen panicked and said: "Jinghong, quickly hide." Liu Boen wanted to squeeze into the room while speaking.
Di Jinghong blocked him from the door suddenly, and said, "What's the matter? Ziyu is still asleep, please keep your voice down." There was a commotion outside the room, and someone shouted downstairs.
Liu Boen said: "People from the government are here to arrest us."
Di Jinghong said: "What are you arresting us for?"
Liu Boen stomped anxiously, "Really, I didn't lie to you, what time is it, Huang Laoqi is dead."
They lived on the second floor. There were hurried footsteps on the stairs, and Liu Boen turned his head in shock, "The yamen servant is here. It's too late if we don't leave."
Di Jinghong let him go into the room, and said, "Where's Wei Luo?"
Liu Boen said: "Wei Luo got up early and went to Tianning Temple to look for clues, but he hasn't come back yet."
Di Jinghong said: "Take Ziyu and go together. Ziyu..."
Yen Ziyu was woken up by them and had already got up and dressed.He heard the conversation between Di Jinghong and Liu Boen, and said to them: "Jinghong, you take Boen away quickly, I'm not feeling well, I can't go, I'll stay and ask the reason, so I can call you. "
Di Jinghong refused, "No, we have to go together. If you stay, you are an accomplice. They will not let you go."
Yen Ziyu coughed twice. He was exposed to the rain last night, and he caught a cold, and his body was injured again, so he had a fever at this time.Zhen Ziyu pushed Di Jinghong out, "Hurry up, don't dawdle, you won't be able to leave if you don't, go to the window." Seeing that Di Jinghong refused to leave, he comforted him: "Even if I go in, you can Help me, if they all go in, they will really be taken over."
Liu Boen pulled Di Jinghong, "Let's go, Jinghong, after Wei Luo and Yu Qing come back, we will definitely be able to rescue Ziyu. How can you let the two of them save the three of them?"
Di Jinghong's eyes were red.
Zhen Ziyu threw the sword to him, "Take Jiuqi and go."
……
Ouyang Jianguang's private residence.
Xiao Yanfeng knelt beside him, and lightly beat his leg.Ouyang Jianguang glanced at the young man beside him, who reluctantly withdrew.
Ouyang Jianguang said: "I heard that the governor arrested Guanlan judge, and Di Jinghong went in?"
Xiao Yanfeng said: "Fifth Master, it's not Di Jinghong."
Ouyang Jianguang was displeased, "It's not Di Jinghong, why did you come here so sullenly to ask for credit? Get lost!"
Xiao Yanfeng withdrew her hands, leaned over and said, "It's Zhen Ziyu."
Ouyang Jianguang shook his hand and gave him a slap in the face, blood dripping from his hand.Bright red blood beads flowed down the corner of Xiao Yanfeng's mouth. Instead of panicking, he smiled seductively, "Fifth Lord, Yen Ziyu went in, and the rest of them ran away. Don't tell me that Yen Ziyu is up to you!" Deal with it? Lord Inspector will not oppose you because of a small judge."
Xiao Yanfeng understood Ouyang Jianguang very well.
He kept a hand yesterday and put medicine in Di Jinghong's clothes. If the medicine gets wet, it will smell fragrant.They must have been tossing hard last night, so Zhen Ziyu didn't run away, but was arrested by the government.
Xiao Yanfeng's single-handed situation has all come true, and she can't help but feel a little proud.But he didn't dare to tell Ouyang Jianguang the truth. Ouyang Jianguang is currently in love with Zhen Ziyu. If he knew that the person he was thinking of was with someone last night...he would definitely go crazy.
Ouyang Jianguang is brave and foolhardy, he is good at eating, drinking and having fun, but he can't carry anything beside him.
Ouyang Jianguang calmed down his anger, and after a while, his face was filled with complacency.He hooked his fingers, and Xiao Yanfeng obediently climbed onto him.
Ouyang Jianguang raised his hand and wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb, and then put his finger into his mouth. Xiaoyan fiddled with that finger like a chicken, humming so that it made people feel itchy.
Xiaoyan Fengtian cleaned her blood, rubbed it against Ouyang Jianguang's arms again, and said coquettishly: "Fifth Master, Yan Feng wears the thing you appreciate day and night."
Ouyang Jianguang sneered, "What do you mean you wear it day and night, can you resist not looking for a man?"
Xiao Yanfeng said: "Fifth Lord, don't make fun of Yanfeng. Without Fifth Master, even a dog would not dare to touch Yanfeng."
Ouyang Jianguang said: "Okay, I will reward you with a dog."
Xiao Yanfeng smiled charmingly, and said: "Fifth Master, don't scare Yanfeng, Yanfeng can't help being frightened, it's time to dream at night. In the past few days, Yanfeng has dreamed every night that you will be rewarding at night."
Ouyang Jianguang said: "You don't have to dream in the future. Tonight, I want to invite the governor to have a drink. You will serve the governor on my behalf. If you serve him comfortably, the reward will be doubled. Didn't he always want to treat you Did you get it? You were rewarded to Lu Lin at the banquet a few days ago, seeing how greedy he was, the hala almost flowed out."
Xiao Yanfeng said: "Which Lord Wu wants Yanfeng to serve, Yanfeng will do his best, but Yanfeng only has you in his heart."
Ouyang Jianguang pressed his ear and said: "Just think of him as me. If he makes you unhappy, isn't there something that I will reward you with? After this job is done, I will reward you again." Stuff, I'm sure you've never seen it before."
Xiao Yanfeng knew that enough was enough for today, "Yanfeng will thank Fifth Master first."
……
When Wei Luo and Zhang Yuqing came back, the inn was surrounded by officers and soldiers, and they turned to another secret location.
Judge Guanlan has a habit of going down the mountain to handle cases. Wherever he goes, there are three caves for cunning rabbits.After they arrive in Yangzhou, the first place to stay is the inn, and at the same time they will agree on two other places to stay. If there is an accident midway, they will go to the second place to gather. Three landing places.
The second landed in Guanyin Mountain.
When Wei Luo and Zhang Yuqing arrived, Liu Boen was persuading Di Jinghong. Di Jinghong was worried about Zhen Ziyu, so he had no choice but to blame himself.
Zhen Ziyu was taken away by officers and soldiers, everyone was waiting for Zhang Yuqing to make up his mind.
Zhang Yuqing said: "According to the accounts of the Ouyang family, the original owner of that night pearl was Lu Lin."
Wei Luodao: "The news I inquired is also true. Lu Lin came from Wuxi with his wife and children. When he first arrived in Yangzhou, he had nothing to rely on. Later, he flattered him a lot and climbed up the big tree of Ouyang's house. From then on, he was like a fish in water in Yangzhou. Mrs. Yang of the Lu family celebrates her birthday. It is said that Lu Lin gave a generous gift, and even the well-informed Yang is full of praise."
"Lu Lin is very tactful. After he arrived in Yangzhou, he made contacts everywhere. Not only did he win the trust of the Yang family, but he also had a hot fight with the Ouyang brothers. It was given to him. It was rumored in Yangzhou that the Lu family would become the second Ouyang family."
Zhang Yuqing said: "Why did Ouyang's family fall out with Lu Lin again? He was so frightened that he left his family and business and flew away. It must be a matter of life and death for him to make up his mind."
Wei Luodao: "Lu Lin and Ouyang's family turned against each other shortly after he got Xiao Yanfeng. There are different opinions on the specific reasons, and it doesn't sound very plausible."
Zhang Yuqing handed the dumb girl portrait drawn by Liu Boen to Lu Lin, "Who do you see in this portrait?"
Wei Luo looked and looked, raised his head and said, "Xiao Yanfeng?"
Zhang Yuqing said: "That's right, it's Xiao Yanfeng. The height and appearance of this person described by Huang Laoqi is basically the same as Xiao Yanfeng."
Di Jinghong and Liu Boen only felt that the dumb girl looked familiar, but neither thought that the dumb girl was a man in disguise.
Zhang Yuqing said: "The reason why he dressed up as a dumb girl must be because he was afraid of being exposed. Huang Laoqi's death was most likely caused by Xiao Yanfeng. I'm afraid he followed you all the time if you ran out of Hehua Lane yesterday. "
Wei Luo said: "That's right. Lu Lin disappeared. There are rumors in the market that he provoked the Ouyang family, scared him away, or was secretly killed by the Ouyang family. But after you arrived in Yangzhou, you looked for Lu Lin everywhere. From the beginning to the end, Ouyang They didn't show up, and there was no movement. They didn't care about this matter at all. This shows that the rumors are not true. Lu Lin ran because he wanted to run, and no one forced him. Otherwise, with the influence of the Ouyang family , even if he goes to Chang'an, it will be easy to kill him."
Zhang Yuqing said: "Then why did he go to Chang'an so hard?"
Wei Luo said: "You have to ask Xiao Yanfeng about it. From the accent, Xiao Yanfeng must be from Chang'an. The gossip I heard is true. He came to Yangzhou two years ago, and he hooked up with him when he first arrived. Ouyang Jianguang. It is said that in order to attract Ouyang Jianguang's favor, he deliberately blocked Ouyang Jianguang's sedan chair and made a big fuss. That's right, everyone in Yangzhou City knows about this."
Zhang Yuqing said: "Chang'an...Xiao Yanfeng is here for Ouyang's family, so it should be planned before coming."
Wei Luo said: "I have tried that little Yanfeng, he is very skillful, he can fight me for a few rounds, Ouyang Jianguang is definitely not his opponent, and Xiao Yanfeng is good at using poison, he can disguise himself, he is a ruthless character. There must be a purpose for this kind of person to commit himself to Ouyang, submit to his will, and be ordered around by him at will."
Zhang Yuqing said, "I'll go down the mountain."
Di Jinghong and the others also got up and said, "Where are you going?"
Zhang Yuqing said: "Go to Ouyang's house. Xiao Yanfeng's goal is definitely not the luminous pearl. I have to ask Yang in person what they took away."
Di Jinghong asked anxiously: "What about Ziyu? We have to save him quickly, the night is full of dreams."
Zhang Yuqing said: "Someone will come to deliver a letter to you later. After you receive the letter, go to the appointed place and wait for me. At that time, you will have a countermeasure." He pressed Di Jinghong's shoulder, "Be safe and don't be impatient. , Ziyu is from Guanlan, the governor dare not do anything to him." After finishing speaking, he patted Di Jinghong on the shoulder and went down the mountain with his sword in hand.
After Zhang Yuqing left, a few people were waiting for news at Guanyin Mountain, but they didn't see anyone for a long time. Seeing that it was getting dark, Di Jinghong hurried around, "Wei Luo, there will be no accidents in Yuqing, right? Otherwise, let's go down the mountain Looking for news?"
Wei Luo said: "Yuqing has made an arrangement, let's wait a little longer and rush down the mountain,
