[Zhan Zhaotongren] Hongchen

Chicken in scallion oil, small yellow croaker on noodles, baby vegetables in soup, three shredded cold salad, ingot shrimp, grilled eggplant on a teppanyaki, and finally a tomato egg drop soup with eggs.

Please chase after your life to eat, what can you do if you have food but no wine, Su Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and went to buy another jar of good bamboo leaf green.

Six dishes, one soup and wine, Su Xiaoxiao was mourning the money she spent all the way carrying the food box, the chicken, fish and shrimp plus wine, now she has less than one tael of silver left .

This is the first time for Su Xiaoxiao to enter Luoyanxuan. The courtyard wall is surrounded by a circle of green bamboos. The path goes through the courtyard and leads to a small two-story building. There is also a stone table and four stone piers, the shape and style of which are the same as those in her yard.

Zhan Zhao lived in the first room on the right downstairs, because the door was open, so Zhan Zhao was standing near the door.

When Su Xiaoxiao walked into the small courtyard, she saw Zhan Zhao's side face. The indifferent expression made people feel sad. There was a slight smile on the corners of her lips, but her eyes were silent. Zhan Zhao was actually smiling at others all the time. But Su Xiaoxiao always felt that there was no happiness in this smile.

"My lords, let's eat in the yard?" Su Xiaoxiao walked to the stone table and put the food box in her hand on it.

"What's the problem?" Zhui Ming walked out with a smile, Zhan Zhao followed behind him.

The weather in late autumn is hot and cold, Su Xiaoxiao arranged the wine and dishes, and heard Zhui Ming say, "That's right, you're thoughtful enough, you even have wine."

"Master Zhui Ming please eat, how can there be no wine." Su Xiaoxiao said with a light smile.

The three of them sat down, Su Xiaoxiao toasted Zhan Zhaohe and Zhuiming first, and then stopped clinking the glasses.

The wine here is mellow but not clear enough, let alone strong enough, she is not used to drinking it.

Zhan Zhao remained silent, savoring each dish carefully, guessing what is the taste of home, this dish is indeed much more delicious than the restaurant outside, but, what exactly is the taste of "home"?Home is a very distant memory for Zhan Zhao, because he has no home since he was very young.

"Aren't you curious?" Zhui Ming picked up an ingot shrimp and asked Su Xiaoxiao beside him, "You were so concerned about this case before, but now you don't seem to want to know who the murderer is."

"I have nothing to do with anyone," Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "I just want to get rid of myself, and it feels bad to be suspicious."

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhan Zhao out of the corner of her eye, but he was eating seriously and didn't hear him at all.

That way, it kind of means that she can't eat or sleep, Su Xiaoxiao is speechless, she is really very graceful.

"That man is Zi Yan's elder brother, named Liu Changshun. He is out for revenge. Lai Yonghua was just unlucky and knew something he shouldn't know. You guessed right, Lai Yonghua had a wrong heart, which led to his death. "Su Xiaoxiao didn't ask, but took the initiative to say, "Master said, your mind is very meticulous, and you are very stubborn, so you have the potential to be a fast catcher."

"Ziyan's brother?" Su Xiaoxiao frowned, ignoring what Chasing Ming said later, "Why did he keep hiding, just for revenge? So, he didn't even see the back of his relatives?"

"He said he was ashamed to see Ziyan. If it wasn't for him, Ziyan would not sell herself to a brothel, and then died there. They had already made an appointment, and they would redeem Ziyan after the imperial examination. Yan didn't wait for him to come...Liu Changshun felt guilty for a long time, and then decided to take revenge. He was also the Taoist who went to Yihong Courtyard for salvation, and he also gave Ma Rufeng and the others the keel, in order to lure the three of them back to the capital."

"What secret can Ziyan know?" Su Xiaoxiao was puzzled. It sounded like it was a matter of course, but... "Where did he get the poison? Since the keel is his, why would he take such an important matter?" What is left in the hands of a dead person? His purpose is revenge, and now that he has taken revenge, why does he go to Yihong Courtyard to pretend to be a ghost?"

"Smart!" Zhui Ming gave a thumbs up, "Although the case is solved, there are still many doubts. The master said that there may be something inside this matter, so..."

"Hehe..." Su Xiaoxiao laughed, that's why she came here to tell her so much, the purpose was still to investigate further, she turned to look at Zhan Zhao, "Master Bao also means the same?"

Zhan Zhao didn't speak, just nodded while holding the glass, not knowing what he was thinking.

Someone pleading guilty does not mean that the case is over. There are still many doubts about this matter, and Liu Changshun has not explained everything clearly.

Su Xiaoxiao poked the vegetables in the bowl with her chopsticks, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Mr. Zhuge and Mr. Bao mean to ask the two adults to help you find out the truth of this case?"

"Wrong!" Zhuiming stretched out a finger and shook it, "The meaning of the master is that you help us get to the bottom of this case."

"No choice?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.When the truth comes out, it is easier said than done.She just came to see the handsome guy, who knows that she can see such a big trouble, now that she can get away, why ask for trouble.

"Adults don't force others. If you don't want to, we won't force it." Zhan Zhao seemed to have just recovered, his voice was as flat as water.

"So, that's what it means," Su Xiaoxiao curled her lips. If she really didn't want to force her, why bother to say so much, "I like to talk about business. I had a talk with Xu Caifeng before. It's a pleasure! Why don't I talk to the two adults too?" Make a deal."

"I can't see it, you are actually a businessman at such a young age." Zhui Ming asked with a smile, "You are not afraid to discuss business with the government..."

"Assisting the government in handling cases is what every citizen should do. I never negotiate conditions with others." As soon as Su Xiaoxiao said, Zhan Zhao frowned unconsciously. He was very uncomfortable with such an obvious bargaining. like.

"It's not a condition, it's a business. Mr. Zhan, there is an exchange for everything, and there is no delay or arrears. What's wrong?" Su Xiaoxiao is not afraid. If she is not willing, Zhan Zhao can't do anything to her.

Zhan Zhao wanted to say something but was stopped by Zhuiming, Zhuiming put down the cup in his hand and looked at Xiaowen, "Tell me what you want us to do."

"When the truth comes out, it's just for the common people. My business is also for the common people." Su Xiaoxiao smiled inexplicably, "I just want the two adults to help the common people I want to help. As for the case, it's definitely not a problem. .”

"You want us to help Yihongyuan?"

"impossible."

Zhan Zhao had already flatly refused Zhui Ming's words.

"Chivalry is divided into people and tasks." As expected, Su Xiaoxiao sighed and shook her head helplessly, "Aren't the people in Yihong Court human? The people in Yihong Court committed crimes and robbed their homes? Yi Are the people in the Red Courtyard not ordinary people? Who did they hurt?"

Zhui Ming and Zhan Zhao glanced at each other, both of them were speechless, Su Xiaoxiao was right, the people in Yihong Courtyard are also people, and the people in Yihong Courtyard are also ordinary people, but they always feel uncomfortable.

"You two adults, is it really difficult to have a meal?" Su Xiaoxiao asked, "I treat the two adults to a meal as a party wine, but I set the place at Yihong Courtyard, you two, May I ask what you have lost?"

"Just a meal?" This time, he even frowned, "We will eat your meal, and you will continue to investigate this case with us?"

"I don't go to that kind of place to eat," Zhan Zhao returned to his calm face, and simply expressed his thoughts.

"It's not flowers and wine, it's a thank-you banquet and dinner. Three days later, the Yihong Court will reopen, and Shenshi will hold a banquet to thank the two adults for avenging the common people." Su Xiaoxiao looked at Zhan Zhao unhurriedly, " Mr. Zhan, don’t you look down on us people?”

I look down on it, that's not true, Zhan Zhao said nothing, but he only went to brothels for one purpose, and that was to handle the case!

Letting him go to eat now, in my heart, always seems to be unreasonable.

"In the hearts of Mr. Zhan and Mr. Zhuiming, the people in Yihong Courtyard are all low class?" Su Xiaoxiao brewed her emotions, her nasal voice became more serious, "They are helpless, if they don't betray themselves, they will starve to death on the street? They are also raised by their fathers and mothers, and they also have parents. If they had nowhere to go, how could they... They rely on themselves to earn money to eat and live, neither stealing nor robbing, cheating or cheating, but now they only get the spurning and contempt of others... They are really ..."

"Okay, okay, I'll go, I can't go!" Zhui Ming begged for mercy, "It's so pitiful, if you don't go, are you going to cry? Places like the Red Courtyard are not very good after all.”

After speaking, he glanced at Zhan Zhao again, and he was fine with it, but I'm afraid Zhan Zhao really wouldn't agree.

"Where is Yihong Courtyard?" Su Xiaoxiao insisted on nonsense, "You are also free, just invite you to dinner as friends, don't you have the nerve to not go? Compared with fame, isn't it more important to save someone's life?" ?Chivalrous, would you give up the chance to save people because of other people's prejudices?"

"Just to eat?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded hurriedly when she heard Zhan Zhao asked, but Zhan Zhao continued to drink his wine without moving his eyebrows.

what is this?accepted?Do not agree?

Chasing his life was a bit of a surprise, Zhan Zhao agreed, it's really rare, did Su Xiaoxiao drug Zhan Zhao?

………………

Xu Caifeng spent all her savings and looked at Su Xiaoxiao's daily struggles. There are three days before the reopening of Yihong Courtyard, but she feels that the days are like years.

If Su Xiaoxiao really tricked her, she didn't even have the money to go back to her hometown. At that time, she might have no choice but to live on the streets.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't think much about it, she was so busy every day, even though Xiaofeng was helping her, there were still many things she had to do by herself, such as drawing clothes, such as making a stage in Yihong Courtyard , such as what to use to make a surprise effect...

A few thugs from Yihong Courtyard are now Su Xiaoxiao's propagandists plus coolies. In Kaifeng City, the news about Yihong Courtyard's renovation and reopening, as well as Jiangnan's famous prostitutes, is all up to them. Bai, the power of gossip is infinite~~~

While promoting it, they brought back some news from the streets and alleys, as if someone was reading a joke, saying what kind of tricks can be found in a place where people are dead and haunted, and some people said, what is the benefit of Yihong Courtyard, so it is so big. Reopen……

In the end, Su Xiaoxiao actually heard a message saying that the famous Jiangnan prostitute invited by Yihong Courtyard is Bai Yutang's confidante, and that the backstage boss of Yihong Courtyard is Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang runs a brothel?Hehe... It's really out of my mouth and into your ears that the right and wrong are reversed without discussion, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help sighing, this rumor kills people.

In fact, the original words of this news were that this famous Jiangnan prostitute once sang a song for Bai Yutang, and Bai Yutang liked it very much.

She spread the word, but how could it become so outrageous?Bai Yutang's confidante and backstage boss, dizzy, if Bai Yutang heard this, it would be fine!

That weird-tempered mouse still doesn't know how to think of a way to kill her.

Let's just say it, Su Xiaoxiao really wanted to bite off her tongue, her original intention was just to make a gimmick.

Fortunately, she didn't make up any news about Zhan Zhao's pursuit and release it, otherwise the two would turn against each other on the spot, and they wouldn't even need to find her, saving travel expenses.
