Jinyiwei factory flower base love story

Hedonic pleasures are common nowadays, Qinlou and Chu Pavilions are spread all over the place, and the capital is the most prosperous place, so naturally it cannot be exempt from convention.

A canal runs across the capital of Daqi. Both sides of the canal are full of exquisite and luxurious painting boats, with red paper lanterns hanging, five-color gauze floating, and graceful and graceful music floating in the painting boats.

Although Duan Mingchen kept himself clean, sometimes his colleagues had to socialize with each other, and sometimes for the purpose of investigating cases, he would inevitably set foot in such sensual places.

It's just that he never thought that one day he would bring a father-in-law to visit the brothel.But fortunately, Gu Huaiqing is a father-in-law, otherwise he wouldn't dare to bring him here.

In the middle of the night, when the brothel was at its busiest, the boat was full of seductive women in scantily clad clothes, posing and singing, trying their best to attract customers.

Gu Huaiqing and Duan Mingchen, one handsome and handsome, the other handsome and unrestrained, attracted the attention of the girls as soon as they appeared, and they all winked at them and waved their handkerchiefs.Some were particularly excited, and even took off the silk flowers on their heads and threw them at them vigorously.

It was the first time in Gu Huaiqing's life that he set foot in the Fengyue place, looking around, he felt very fresh.

Duan Mingchen didn't look sideways, and walked straight towards the farthest painting boat.The painting boat was huge in shape, as high as a three-story building, but it was a little quiet, not as noisy and lively as other painting boats, but it felt somewhat isolated and cold.

Gu Huaiqing looked up and saw three big characters written on the plaque - Jiaofangsi, he couldn't help being stunned.

Seeing him hesitating, Duan Mingchen laughed and said, "Why, you dare not go in?"

Gu Huaiqing snorted, lowered his eyes to hide the strange expression, and stepped over the threshold with a flick of his hem.

The bustard with heavy make-up immediately came up to meet him, and immediately burst into laughter when he saw Duan Mingchen: "Hey, isn't this Master Duan? You're back in Beijing!"

The old bustard glanced away, and saw Gu Huaiqing next to Duan Mingchen. Gu Huaiqing was not dressed as ostentatiously as usual when he went out of the palace at night, but his handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament were hard to hide.

The bustards are all human beings, their eyes lit up immediately, and they posted it with a smile on their faces: "This is the first time this master has come back, how do you call him? What kind of girl do you like?"

Duan Mingchen lowered his face, avoided the bustard, and prevented her from meeting Gu Huaiqing, and said coldly: "He is my friend. I want a private room and ask Miss Yuanwei to come and serve her."

"Okay, I'll do it now." The old bustard could see that Duan Mingchen's face was not looking good, how dare she offend Jin Yiwei, so she quickly ordered someone to lead the two of them to the private room upstairs, and then asked someone to call Yuanwei.

"Master Duan, you don't know, my Yuanwei is looking forward to your visit every day..." The old bustard didn't forget to add one last sentence.

Gu Huaiqing couldn't help but let out a sneer when he heard that, Duan Mingchen was annoyed, and glared at the talkative old bustard. The old bustard was swept away by his cold eyes, and immediately shut up knowingly.

In order to please Duan Mingchen, the old bust specially gave him the best private room on the top floor, built by the water, with a great view, overlooking the lights of thousands of houses.

Gu Huaiqing walked around the room with arms folded, and exclaimed: "It really is a beautiful view, no wonder Mr. Duan often comes to patronize."

Duan Mingchen poured a glass of wine and handed it to him, poured another glass for himself, and said, "I've been sent abroad for three years, and this is the first time I've been here since I returned to Beijing."

"Really?" Gu Huaiqing's phoenix eyes flickered slightly, as if she didn't quite believe Duan Mingchen's words.

Duan Mingchen asked: "Aren't you going to drink? Why don't you drink again?"

"There's only wine, but no beauties, how boring!" Gu Huaiqing sighed pretendingly, and suddenly approached Duan Mingchen, asking in a gossip tone, "Your confidante, Yuanwei girl, must be a stunning beauty, right?"

Duan Mingchen frowned, and patiently explained: "What confidante? Don't talk nonsense! This teaching workshop is obviously controlled by officials, but privately it is monitored by Jin Yiwei. Yuanwei was originally a daughter of an official family. Sent here, she is obviously a singing girl, but she is actually acting as a secret agent of Jin Yiwei, responsible for collecting information."

Gu Huaiqing snorted, unable to hide the disappointment on his face.

Duan Mingchen glanced at him angrily, thinking, can I really take you around the brothel?In case you do something good or bad, let the emperor know that you haven't skinned me yet!

Just as they were talking, the door opened with a creak, and a young woman came in with a piano in her arms, and bowed to the two of them, "Yiwei has seen the two masters."

Gu Huaiqing sneaked a peek at her, and saw that this iris was wearing a light and sheer lotus-coloured blouse, and her jade muscles were faintly visible under the thin blouse.Although her appearance is not as stunning as Shen Yichan's, nor as gentle as Xie Huilan's, but her bright eyes and teeth, her slim waist and her slim waist, she has a charming charm.

Duan Mingchen said lightly: "There's no need to be too polite, we're all on our own, so you can play whatever you're good at."

Yuanwei nodded and said yes, Yingying got up, and looked at Duan Mingchen deeply with a pair of bright eyes like autumn water, but Duan Mingchen never looked at her more, and just poured wine for Gu Huaiqing blindly.

Iris lowered her eyes silently, adjusted the tune, put on a beautiful posture, and began to pluck the strings and play the piano.

She played a song called Spring River Flower and Moon Night, the tune was soothing and soft, which made people feel happy.

Gu Huaiqing picked up the wine glass, lightly touched Duan Mingchen, and drank it down with his neck raised.

Duan Mingchen has been in Saibei for three years, and he has already practiced a good capacity for drinking. Unexpectedly, Gu Huaiqing is also very forthright, and his cups are bottomless.

The toasts are mixed, you come and I go, and the pot of wine is drained in a blink of an eye.

After drinking for three rounds, Gu Huaiqing remembered the weird scene he saw when he visited Shen's house at night, and couldn't help but want to discuss it with Duan Mingchen.

"The case of the Shen residence..."

Duan Mingchen stopped Gu Huaiqing with his eyes. He already knew that Gu Huaiqing said drinking was just an excuse, but he actually wanted to discuss the case with himself.

Although Yuanwei is a secret agent of Jinyiwei, there are many involved in the case of the first assistant, so it is not appropriate for outsiders to hear it, so as to avoid unnecessary complications.

So, Duan Mingchen said to Yuanwei: "Okay, thank you for your hard work, it's none of your business here, you go out first."

Iris seemed a little disappointed, but she got up and saluted obediently, and was about to step back, but Gu Huaiqing stopped her and rewarded her with a golden leaf.

Unexpectedly, this handsome young master made such a generous offer, Yuan Wei was taken aback, hesitated to accept it, and aimed her eyes at Duan Mingchen, seeing Duan Mingchen nodded, she accepted it gratefully.

Gu Huaiqing watched the back of Iris leaving, his eyes seemed to be mixed with multiple complex emotions such as pity, sadness, etc. However, this strange emotion only disappeared in a flash, and soon subsided.

"What are your thoughts on the case of the Shen residence?" Gu Huaiqing asked.

Duan Mingchen smiled slightly, and asked back, "What do you think? Who do you think is the murderer?"

"I think it's confusing, and it seems that many people are suspicious..." Gu Huaiqing took a sip of his wine, frowned and said slowly, "Ruo Qiulian's confession is correct, and the preliminary inference is that the time of the murderer's attack should be between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-] In the meantime, the murderer made noises outside, attracting Qiu Lian to the yard, then took the opportunity to sneak into the kitchen, took wine from the cupboard, and poured it into the soup."

Duan Mingchen hummed, and signaled him to continue talking with encouraging eyes.

Gu Huaiqing continued: "During the period from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-], it was Miss Shen and the housekeeper who had the alibi. However, the one who testified for Miss Shen was her personal maid, Xia He, who was loyal to Miss Shen. The master and servant may not be without the possibility of collusion."

Duan Mingchen shook his head, and said: "Murdering one's own father is no small matter, unless there is a strong motive. Since ancient times, women have relied on their father at home, and their husbands when they get married. Shen Shoufu has a high position and is Shen Yichan's backer. If she kills her biological father, what benefits will she get? Woolen cloth?"

"Maybe she doesn't want to marry Wei Zhuangyuan?" Gu Huaiqing guessed.

"Since ancient times, women's marriage has always been the order of their parents and the words of a matchmaker. What's more, the number one scholar is talented and handsome. No matter how you look at it, it's a golden and jade marriage! Besides, even if she doesn't want to, she doesn't have to kill herself Father? Once Shen Shoufu died, she lost her backer, and she would have to observe mourning for three years. When she gets older, it will be more difficult to discuss marriage."

Gu Huaiqing said: "This is indeed a suspicious point, but I feel that her behavior tonight is quite abnormal. I don't know who painted that painting? Tomorrow, we might as well find an excuse to search her room, maybe we can gain something .”

Duan Mingchen nodded in agreement.

Gu Huaiqing continued: "Let's not talk about Ms. Shen first, but look at the housekeeper. The person who testified for the housekeeper was Mr. Accountant, and the possibility of the accountant being bribed is also not ruled out. As for the motive of the housekeeper, it is very clear. After all, Shen Yuzhu is the housekeeper's illegitimate son. Well, once Master Shen dies, Shen Yuzhu is the only legal heir, and he will inherit his inheritance as a matter of course, and the butler, as his actual biological father, can benefit from it."

"As for those who don't have an alibi, they include Shen Yuzhu, Aunt Jiang, and Mrs. Shen. We have analyzed Shen Yuzhu before, and it is unlikely that he is the murderer. It is more likely that he was framed by someone. As for Aunt Jiang, she was alone in the In the room, there is no waiter around, so no one can prove that she is not there. However, judging from her consistent performance, she should be a woman with no scheming, can she design such a sophisticated murder?

As for Mrs. Shen Xie Huilan, from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-], she sent her maid Dongmei to ask Master Shen to go back to his room. During this period of time, there was no one around her.And regarding Shen Shoufu's death, she seemed very sad on the surface, but in private she was still in the mood to play with the maid, isn't it suspicious?

In this Shen residence, it seems that everyone has a secret hidden in them, poor Shen Shoufu, no one feels sad after death, it's really a failure to be a human being! "

Duan Mingchen tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and said with a slight smile, "You analyzed it very well, but you still missed a very important point."

Gu Huaiqing asked, "What time?"

Duan Mingchen took out the white hang silk rag in his arms, "This is it, is it left by the murderer? The white shadow that Mrs. Wu saw in the plum grove, even if it wasn't the murderer, it might have something to do with the murderer."

"That's right, but Shen Yuzhu didn't find a damaged hang silk outer shirt, and the murderer probably destroyed it."

"No matter what, it's a clue, we can't let it go."

Gu Huaiqing patted his thigh: "By the way, why don't we use this as an excuse to take the opportunity to search Shen's residence thoroughly and search through everyone's rooms carefully, maybe we can find some clues!"

Duan Mingchen smiled slightly and said, "That's exactly what I mean!"

"Then what are you waiting for, let's do it now!" Gu Huaiqing was gearing up with excitement on his face.

"Now?" Duan Mingchen looked up at the dark window, and said with a smile, "It's midnight, Shen's residence has already closed its doors to rest. Besides, the search of the residence can't be done casually. I will go to appease you tomorrow morning." The commander should go to Commander-in-Chief and get his approval."

Gu Huaiqing made sense when he thought about it, he shut up awkwardly, picked up the flagon to pour wine, but unexpectedly the flagon was empty, not even a drop of wine could be poured out.

"Come here, bring another jug ​​of wine!" Gu Huaiqing ordered out of the door.

Duan Mingchen stopped him: "Are you still drinking? Are you not going back to the palace to rest today?"

"No, anyway, the gate of the palace is closed, and I have nowhere to go, so why not just drink here until dawn! How about it, do you dare to drink with me?"

"Okay, I'll accompany you." Duan Mingchen's tone was somewhat resignedly indulgent.

After all, Gu Huaiqing is not a frequent drinker. After drinking another pot of wine, the scene in front of him becomes a double image, wobbly and unreal.

"Hey, you...why do you...have two heads?" Gu Huaiqing held the wine bottle in one hand and put the other on the table, smiling silly.

"Telling you to drink less is just disobedience!"

Duan Mingchen took advantage of Gu Huaiqing's drunkenness, and quickly snatched the wine bottle from his hand.

"Don't snatch it, quickly...give it back to me..." Gu Huaiqing was anxious, and rushed to grab the wine bottle, but unexpectedly his legs and feet became weak, and he slammed into Duan Mingchen's arms.

Duan Mingchen didn't expect Gu Huaiqing to be so cute when he was drunk, so he thought of teasing him, and deliberately raised the wine bottle so high that Gu Huaiqing couldn't reach it.

Gu Huaiqing couldn't get enough, so he couldn't help but pouted aggrievedly, tugged at Duan Mingchen's sleeve, and begged softly, "Give it to me...give it to me..."

Gu Huaiqing usually looks tugging, but he didn't expect to be like a child after drinking wine. His black phoenix eyes were filled with water mist, perhaps because he drank hot, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, which made his fair skin even more radiant. Crystal clear as ice and snow.

Duan Mingchen's thoughts moved slightly, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand towards Gu Huaiqing's forehead, only to feel that his hand was soft and greasy, after stroking it a few times, he took it away, leaving only a layer of transparent sweat on his fingertips.

"Tsk, I thought you were wearing powder, but I didn't expect you to be born with a pretty face..." Duan Mingchen murmured to himself.

If Gu Huaiqing was still conscious, he would have fought back fiercely, but unfortunately he is unconscious at the moment, just staring at the wine bottle, "Wine... Brother Duan, give me the wine, let's drink again..."

Duan Mingchen who called "Brother Duan" was elated, hugged Gu Huaiqing aggressively, and coaxed: "Hey, call me again, brother, I'll give it to you."

Gu Huaiqing was uncomfortable being hugged by him, his slender eyebrows frowned, his body twisted and struggled, but Duan Mingchen's hand was so strong that he insisted on clasping his waist.

The two were in a stalemate for a while, Gu Huaiqing was exhausted, finally gave in, and called out tremblingly: "...Brother Duan."

Duan Mingchen's heart seemed to be hit hard, and the rhythm of the heartbeat was out of order.

He has a high status in Jinyiwei, Luo Qin, Tang Jingwen and other younger brothers all call him big brother; in the military camp, in the rivers and lakes, there are many close friends who respectfully call him big brother.But Gu Huaiqing's "Brother Duan" was very different, it made him feel very comfortable and proud, he was obviously not drunk, but he felt ecstatic.

Duan Mingchen stroked Gu Huaiqing's soft hair, secretly replaced the wine in the bottle with boiled water, poured it into the wine glass and gave Gu Huaiqing a few sips.

Gu Huaiqing took two sips from Duan Mingchen's hand, snorted twice in his mouth, gradually became drunk, leaned his head on Duan Mingchen's chest and did not move.

Duan Mingchen was alone in a heartbeat, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Gu Huaiqing had fallen asleep in his arms.

Gu Huaiqing who was sleeping soundly was like a well-behaved kitten, with a red face, moist mouth and purring softly.

Fortunately, there was a big comfortable bed in the private room. Seeing that Gu Huaiqing was so drunk that he didn't know what to do, Duan Mingchen ordered him a bowl of hangover soup, fed him to drink, then carried him to the bed, removed his coat, and covered him with a quilt.

After finishing, Duan Mingchen sat by the bed, staring at him in a daze.

After a long time, Duan Mingchen didn't leave the room until the cock crowed. He paid the room fee, but before leaving he was worried and asked Yuanwei to take care of Gu Huaiqing before he got up and left.
