Kaifeng Mansion's Little Boss

Gongsun Ce raised his eyes, looked at everyone gently, and smiled slightly, "You want to know that much?"

Sun He, Wang Chao and others nodded quickly.

"I won't tell you."

Gongsun Ce buried his head and continued to work on his own affairs, and sent them to leave quickly.

Everyone: "..."

Unexpectedly, Mr. Gongsun also has naughty moments.

Sun He ran to look for Su Yuan, and wanted Su Yuan to go to Mr. Gongsun to find out. After all, they are a master-student relationship, so they must be easy to talk to.

It's really uncomfortable when people's curiosity can't be satisfied!

Su Yuan met several yamen servants on the way.

The yamen servants were all surprised when they heard the news that Bai Yutang was staying in Kaifeng Mansion.Just seeing Su Yuan at this moment, they hurriedly called him to stop.

They were very curious about how the battle between Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao was going last night, so they couldn't wait to ask Su Yuan what he thought of the fight between the two.

The reason why they asked this question was because they felt that Su Yuan was an ordinary girl who didn't understand martial arts, so they could just listen to her describe how shocked and frightened she was at the scene.

Ask her what she thinks about fighting?

Su Yuan replied truthfully: "It's boring, fighting is the most boring thing. As long as the problem can be solved by crying, I will never use it."

The yamen servants were stunned for a moment after hearing Su Yuan's answer, only to realize that Su Yuan must have misunderstood them, and then everyone burst into laughter.

That's right, a weak girl like Su Yuan who doesn't know martial arts can't fight, and can only solve problems by crying.

Blame them for asking the wrong person, a little girl who doesn't understand martial arts at all.

The yamen servants laughed enough, waved their hands one after another, and broke up.

Seeing that these people actually looked down on Su Yuan, Sun He stomped his feet several times in anger.

She ran to Su Yuan's side, wondering why Su Yuan wanted to hide herself like this, why didn't she show her skills, and let those who despise her know how powerful she is.

"Are they important?" Su Yuan asked back.

Sun He choked, and realized that he was being narrow-minded, that a superior person is a superior person, and his thinking is fundamentally different.People don't care about secular views at all, otherwise they wouldn't bow down here.

Sun He patted his forehead and sighed that he was stupid.

"It's not only stupid, but also has a bad memory. What's wrong with me?"

Su Yuan stared straight at Sun He, making Sun He suddenly feel like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

"what?"

Sun He's memory was finally aroused by Su Yuan's dangerous eyes, she remembered, it was beef!

"I'll get it right away, Sister Su, don't worry, I promise to get beef tendon, tripe, brisket..."

After Sun He had gone far, Su Yuan continued to walk southwest to find Bai Yutang.

Remembering that Gongsun Ce came to her this morning and asked her if she could leave a portion of rice for Bai Yutang while cooking, Su Yuan couldn't help but feel amused.Who would have thought that the arrogant Bai Yutang would stay in Kaifeng mansion because of food problems.

Although it is just a matter of adding more dishes to the pot when cooking, this work cannot be done for nothing.

Su Yuan walked to the Cuiqing courtyard with fast and light steps.Walking around the blue tile wall, you can see Bai Yutang standing on the rock in front of the main house. He is dressed in white and has a tall and straight figure, like a cold pine hanging on a cliff with ice and snow.

I don't know why he stood there in a daze?

Bai Yutang noticed something, and immediately clenched the knife in his hand. Looking sideways and seeing that it was Su Yuan, he frowned and reflected on how his vigilance had dropped.He didn't notice the approach of a non-warrior until the person walked in front of him.

"why you?"

"Ask what you want for lunch." Su Yuan said.

Bai Yutang was silent, Su Yuan should know the conditions for him to stay in Kaifeng Mansion.Although he knew that he couldn't hide this matter from her, but facing her at this moment, Bai Yutang felt inexplicably embarrassed.

Su Yuan waited for a while, and seeing that Bai Yutang had no intention of speaking, he took the initiative to break the silence: "The 100 taels you gave me, let me give it to someone else."

Bai Yutang looked up at her with cold eyes.

Su Yuan briefly told Bai Yutang about her relationship with Mrs. Xu and the situation of the yin marriage case.When talking about Mrs. Xu's betrayal of her, Su Yuan did not forget that her eyes were flushed and she choked up several times.

"In the Kaifeng Mansion, she has been the only one who has taken care of me for many years. I thought that if she and her son were in trouble, I might give the 100 taels of silver to solve the urgent need, but I never expected..."

Su Yuan didn't say anything, which made people think more.

In fact, when Mrs. Xu was arrested and her family came to pack up, Su Yuan had a chance to take the money away.But it was the money she made with Mrs. Xu, and since she gave it away, she would not get it back.

"Don't be stupid next time, that kind of person doesn't deserve your sympathy."

The coldness in Bai Yutang's eyes faded, and he immediately took out two bank notes and handed them to Su Yuan.

"I don't want to eat you for nothing. If you need money in the future, I will ask for it."

Su Yuan made a slight refusal, then took the money obediently and thanked him: "Thank you, Great Xia Bai!"

Just pretend to be pitiful and get 200 taels of silver, and her back can be hardened again!Bai Yutang is definitely the most forthright big client she has ever seen in this world, so please pay respects to him!

"You can have lunch as you like, but if it doesn't taste good, I'll give you 400 taels back." Bai Yutang threatened Su Yuan.

Su Yuan immediately clenched the bank note in his hand, and immediately left to prepare lunch.

In order to keep the money and avoid debts, she would never leave the kitchen if she did not make a delicious meal.

Sun He had just delivered the beef he begged for to the kitchen.

Su Yuan threw the meat into pepper water to soak in the bleeding water, then cut the beef brisket, beef tendon and tripe into pieces and blanched them in water to make a pot of braised pork belly for stewing.

This cooking method is very particular. It must be stewed with a special Chinese medicine bag. It can not only remove the smell of beef, but also bring out the aroma of the meat to the extreme, and at the same time, it has the effect of nourishing and beautifying.What's more, this stewed beef is definitely not without white radish. The white radish is cut into large pieces and put into the soup and stewed together. As long as the heat is in place and the stew is long enough, the taste of radish is even better than beef.

However, before Su Yuan could get the meat ready, he was informed that the case was coming.Su Yuan had no choice but to ask Sun He to help watch the fire.

"The report said that in the ruined temple in the east of the city, there seemed to be a dead body of a child who had been burned." Wang Chao told Su Yuan that Mr. Gongsun was busy today, so Fang Wu made the scene and asked Su Yuan to learn the autopsy together with Fang Wuzuo.

When the two reached the gate of the mansion, Su Yuan saw that Bai Yutang was also there.

Wang Chao immediately tightened his nerves, and explained to Su Yuan in a low voice: "Fifth Master Bai first entered Kaifeng Mansion, and he had to familiarize himself with everything, so he followed along."

After arriving at the ruined temple in the east of the city, as soon as Su Yuan entered, he saw a government servant guarding the east corner.

There is indeed a charred corpse at the corner of the east wall, less than three feet long, with the head down, curled up, the surface is scorched, black, and thin arms and legs can be vaguely distinguished.If calculated according to height, this should be at least a child over two years old

If you get closer, you can see that the limbs of the dead body, especially the hands and feet, are different from those of humans, and there are no fragments of clothing on the body.

After Fang Wuzuo laid out the straw mat, he carried the corpse to the straw mat, and then exposed the front of the corpse.Everyone fell silent when they saw it. The eyes on his head were sunken and hollow, obviously gouged out before the body was burned.Looking at the outline of the victim's entire head, I also found it a bit strange. The lower jaw protruded very obviously.

Everyone felt that something was wrong, and more and more doubts arose.

"This is not a human corpse, it's a monkey's." Bai Yutang said after looking at it coldly.

Fang Wuzuo confirmed Bai Yutang's statement after careful inspection.

"But monkeys should have tails!" Wang Chao sighed in bewilderment.

If there is a tail, everyone will be able to judge it by looking at the back.

"It was cut off, because the epidermis was all burnt, so it was not obvious. After careful inspection, it was found that there was a wound on the rear hip." Fang Wei explained.

"His limbs are bent. Did he have his eyes gouged out and then burned to death? It's a monkey, how could he treat him like this." A yamen servant exclaimed.

Fang Wu specifically explained to Su Yuan on this point: "The flexion of the limbs cannot be used as evidence of being burned to death. Judging from the homicide and cremation files submitted by various places, there have been many deceased who were burned after death. The limbs will be bent. Therefore, to judge whether the victim was burnt alive, it depends on whether there is black ash in the mouth and nose."

Su Yuan nodded, indicating that he had written it down.

Fang Wuzuo then checked the mouth and nose of the victim monkey and found that there were a lot of black and ash attached.It was said by the yamen servant!The monkey was indeed burned to death, and his eyes were gouged out before being burned alive.

Too cruel!

"This is quite cruel, but since it's not a homicide case, it has nothing to do with our Kaifeng mansion. Let's all leave." Wang Chao clapped his hands and dismissed everyone.

Su Yuan stood there without moving. She looked around the environment of the ruined temple. The corner of the east wall was already blackened due to being burned.But on the west corner and other surfaces she found some black splatters.Dip the veil in water and wipe it, and a bright red color will appear on the veil, which should be the dried blood.

Su Yuan also found that there should have been a piece of weeds growing behind the temple, but there were no grass in several places, and there were traces of overturned soil in several places.

Su Yuan went to borrow a pickaxe, and then dug up a lot of rotten and half-rotten cat and dog corpses, all of which had their eyes gouged out.

Bai Yutang didn't leave either, and frowned slightly when he saw this scene.

"If Brother Zhan was here, he would definitely not let the murderer go. There are at least nine dead cats." Su Yuan sighed.

Bai Yutang understood what Su Yuan meant, and that Yumao Zhanzhao was also of the same kind as a cat.

But after all, they are just some cats and dogs that have been killed, and it is not worth pursuing, otherwise there will be endless cases in this world.

Bai Yutang: "Let's go."

"Wait, there's still a pit full of bones, let me see." Su Yuan squatted by the pit and pulled it with a wooden stick.

Bai Yutang glanced at it, and saw that the pit was full of tiny bones, which should be some kind of small animal.He didn't bother to pay attention, and walked away first.

"what--"

Su Yuan suddenly exclaimed, causing Bai Yutang to stop and look back.

"The bottom of this pit is full of rat bones." Su Yuan raised his head and looked at Bai Yutang with his dark eyes. Are rats better than cats?"
