Kaifeng Mansion's Little Boss

"I followed everyone Zhanwei every day, and I forgot his name Xiongfei."

Sun He scratched his forehead and also burst into laughter.Look at how powerful she is, Nan Xia Zhan Zhao can even joke with her.When she returns to Dongfeng Escort, she has one more thing to brag about with her father overnight.

Su Yuan took Sun He back to the room, and asked her in a low voice if she had anything to do recently.

"I'm idle, if you have any orders, sister Su, just tell me."

"Help me to talk to someone." Su Yuan told Sun He about Pang Xian's situation.

Sun He patted her chest and promised to get things done, but after the filming, she regretted it again and rubbed it carefully.

Su Yuan couldn't help but look at her with weird eyes.

Sun He said kindly: "I can't take any more pictures. It's not big in the first place. If I make it smaller, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at by Sister Su."

Su Yuan: "..."

The knock on the door sounded just at this moment, and Su Yuan was rescued.

A mother-in-law came to say that there was a case.

"Safety first, follow if you can, don't force yourself if you can't, don't be impulsive." Su Yuan patted Sun He on the shoulder and told her.And promised that if she can handle this matter well, she can order whatever she wants later.

When Sun He heard that there was a food reward, he agreed even more excitedly, and raised his hand to slap his chest again to promise, but Su Yuan stopped him precisely.

"Hehe... Fortunately, the boss made a timely move and stopped me from taking pictures of it! It is the boss who loves me and understands my difficulties." Sun He took advantage of the situation to thank him.

Su Yuan sighed speechlessly, very, very, too lazy to argue with Sun He, and immediately left and rushed to the scene of the crime.

The deceased was in a grass ditch next to the Wuli official road outside the city.

Because Gongsun Ce woke up this morning with fever symptoms, Su Yuan advised him to stay in the mansion to recuperate.

"Maybe I have worked too much in the foreign office for the past few days, and once I rest, it is easy to find illness."

After Su Yuan answered Fang Yuzuo's question, he looked at the corpse.

Head down, wearing a coarse men's clothing, with a strong body, the body is lying horizontally in the grass ditch at an angle along the slope.There were traces of overwhelmed weeds in the direction behind the corpse's feet, about half a foot in length.But this trace did not extend all the way to the roadside, which shows that the body did not slide down directly from the roadside, but was thrown into the air halfway up the slope, and then slid down a short distance before stopping near the bottom of the ditch.

This is the official road and the only way to Tokyo, and there are not many pedestrians.There are four or five people who have been watching from the sidelines. They are all people who want to rush to Beijing. After seeing this, they left behind to watch the situation curiously.

"Who found the body?" Su Yuan asked.

"It's grass people."

An old man tremblingly replied.

"About half an hour ago, the grass man was tired from walking and wanted to sit on the side of the road to rest, but when he turned around, he saw someone lying in the ditch. The grass man screamed in fright, and attracted this little brother who was passing by.

Originally, Caomin wanted to go down to see the situation, but the little brother said that the man had no energy at all, he probably died early, and we went down to mess up the place, which would delay the investigation of the case by Kaifeng Mansion.The little brother has a horse, so I trouble him to help report to the official, and the grass people stay here. "

The little brother mentioned by the old man is a young man in brocade clothes, and it was he who rode a fast horse to report to the officials in Kaifeng Mansion just now.At this time, in order to cooperate with Kaifeng government to investigate the case, he also came back.

Su Yuan looked at the young man, he had red lips and white teeth, and a handsome appearance. Although the clothes were half-worn, they were still bright in color, which showed that the materials were not extraordinary.A simple hosta on the head hairpin is also not a vulgar thing.And the horse he was riding, although Su Yuan didn't recognize the breed, but judging from its big red date-colored fur and vigorous body, he knew it was unusual.

"Du Yi, I have met all the officials." The young man saluted politely.

"Little brother seems to know the order of the yamen's investigation?" Fang Wuzuo asked him curiously when he learned that he was the one who advocated protecting the scene.

Du Yi promised: "My father once set up prisons on Hedong Road, so I know a little bit about it."

After Fang Wuzuo heard this, he looked at the little brother's clothes again, and realized that his eyesight was stupid, but he didn't expect this to be someone special.

"May I ask, what is the identity of the little brother?"

Only then did Du Yi show that he was the youngest son of Prime Minister Du Yan.

Fang Wu was shocked and hurriedly bowed to see him.

Du Yi hurriedly said that you are welcome, everything will be fine as usual.He cleverly observed that the woman who came with Fang Yuzuo didn't look too surprised when she heard his identity, and unlike most people he saw, after knowing that he was the prime minister's son, Immediately change attitude, flattery.

After Fang Wuzuo turned the body over, he saw blood on the chest of the deceased, "Miss Su, come and see!"

Su Yuan checked according to Fang Wu's instructions, and saw that the wound was a blood hole the size of a soybean, right in the heart of the deceased.

Du Yi, who was listening to Fang Yuzuo, called the woman Miss Su, raised his eyebrows in surprise, and looked at Su Yuan carefully.

A few days ago, the shady marriage case in Pingyuanhou's mansion was full of turmoil. He once heard his father mention that the victim was the daughter of an old policeman in Kaifeng mansion, surnamed Su.Said she was a very clever and brave girl.When she was persecuted by Marquis Pingyuan and his third son Cao Jin, she played the gong cleverly, which attracted the attention of the visiting officials, so she finally exposed the ugliness of Marquis Pingyuan and his son in public.

Although he didn't fully confirm the identity of this girl, Du Yi felt that a woman who could do such a bold thing must be as tolerant as the girl Su in front of her.Besides, there are few female servants in Kaifeng Mansion, and her surname happens to be Su, and she is young, so it can almost be confirmed that she is herself.

"Ordinary awls are thinner than this, and not as deep. This looks like a special weapon?"

Su Yuan's words attracted Fang Wuzuo's approval.

Afterwards, the two checked the other conditions of the corpse together. Except for a few minor abrasions on the face and exposed skin, there was no obvious trauma.And these abrasions should be caused by grass and trees during the process of throwing the corpse.The area around the scene was relatively clean, except for the dead body, the grass near the ditch had no signs of being trampled on.

Fang Wuzuo deduced from the condition of the corpse table that the deceased had been dead for at least half a day.

"There are many people on this road during the day, and the murderer chose to throw his body at this location, obviously because he wanted to be discovered on purpose."

Ordinary people would hide their corpses in a panic when they killed people.What is the murderer's purpose in throwing the corpse so frantically?Just because of audacity?

Su Yuan saw that the deceased's clothes were covered with dust, his hands had thick calluses, and the exposed skin was darker due to the sun exposure. He must have been doing rough labor all year round.

At this moment, Bai Yutang came on horseback, and Bai Fu followed behind him.

Bai Fu jumped off the horse first, went straight to the grass ditch to check the face of the deceased, then changed his expression, and said back to Bai Yutang: "It's him!"

Bai Yutang's eyes swept over the corpse, and the eagle stared at him, his expression became extremely ferocious, and he wanted to turn his horse's head and leave immediately.

"Fifth Master stay here." Su Yuan shouted.

Bai Yutang cast a condescending glance at Su Yuan.

"Fifth Master knew the deceased?"

"Ah."

After Bai Yutang turned the horse's head, the white clothes flew up lightly, his vigorous back was resolute and cold, making people feel that his whole body was full of murderous aura.At this moment, he is like an enraged lion, no one can stop him from killing the enemy recklessly.

"Is the deceased Ren Daniu?"

Everyone present was overwhelmed by Bai Yutang's momentum, only Su Yuan dared to question him quickly.

Seeing Bai Yutang's stature froze, Su Yuan immediately leaned in front of Bai Yutang's horse, and said to him in a gentle voice, "I'm going to make snowflake cakes tonight, Fifth Master, would you like to show me your face?"

On the surface, these words sounded like Su Yuan's simple invitation to Bai Yutang, but in reality she was asking Bai Yutang to make a choice in disguise.Do you want to be impulsive, reject her and her Snowflake Crisp, and leave immediately; or do you want to give her a face and explain the situation clearly.

Of course, if you choose not to give face, then the follow-up problems may be relatively large.Not only did he not have any snowflake crisps tonight, he might not have any in the future.

At this time, Bai Fu had already mounted his horse in a hurry, intending to follow his fifth master closely.

He knows Fifth Master's temper very well. When encountering such a thing, it is definitely not in his character not to kill him immediately.If I move a step slower, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up.

Bai Fu clamped the horse's belly with his calf, held the whip in his hand, and was about to gallop the horse when he suddenly saw his fifth master jump off the horse.

Bai Fu's eyes were full of surprise: What happened? ? ?

"Ren Daniu is a miner hired by Qianwangkeng in Yongkang, Wuzhou. He filed a lawsuit against him. He traveled from Wuzhou to Jiangning Mansion, but he was hunted down halfway. Knowing my reputation as a hero, he ran to Jinhua The Bai Mansion asked for help. After learning about his experience, his family personally escorted him to Jiangning Mansion to help him appeal.

Unexpectedly, the Jiangning Mansion rejected Ren Daniu's complaint first, regardless of right or wrong, and then bandits attacked at night, intending to assassinate Ren Daniu again.I am afraid that the Jiangning mansion is not clean because of the collusion between the officials, so the family wrote to me and sent someone to escort Ren Daniu to the Kaifeng mansion, asking Master Bao for help—”

A hiss suddenly sounded, interrupting Bai Yutang's words.

I saw the horse that Bai Fu was riding, neighing for some reason and jumping up, leading Bai Fu to run a long distance in the blink of an eye.

After working hard for a long time, Bai Fu finally stopped his horse and hurried back.

He got off the horse panting, and seeing everyone looking at him, he scratched his head in embarrassment, knowing that he had made a fool of himself just now.But he can't be blamed for this, he was planning to run with Fifth Master, who knew that Fifth Master stopped running suddenly.

Bai Yutang's face turned frosty at Bai Fu's uproar.

Bai Fu knew how to be funny, and immediately reported himself as brave, and explained the follow-up of the incident for his master.

"Ten days ago, according to the agreement in the previous letter, I sent four people to Chenzhou to take over Ren Daniu.

The journey from Chenzhou was safe and smooth, and there were no accidents or assassinations.But yesterday afternoon, when they arrived in Fugou County, Ren Daniu suddenly complained of abdominal pain.

Originally, it seemed that he was about to go to Tokyo. Wouldn't it be safe to go to Kaifeng Mansion in one breath?However, Ren Daniu's stomach was so bad that he couldn't bear it at all, so they had to rest in Fugou temporarily, planning to wait for him to take medicine for a night, and then come back to Tokyo early today.

Unexpectedly, at night, when they went to check on Ren Daniu's situation, he disappeared.Afterwards, they rushed to Tokyo to inform me, and I quickly reported the situation to Lord Wu, and Miss Su was there at that time. "

Bai Fu told Su Yuan that they had been searching for him in Fugou County for a long time last night, but they still disappeared.In the daytime, Bai Yutang used his identity as a fourth-rank bodyguard to ask the magistrates of Fugou, Suanzao, and Weishi counties to cooperate with them in their search. All the counties dispatched all their horses, but Ren Daniu was still not found.

Until just now, when he and Fifth Master heard that there was a murder case on the official road, they had a bad premonition, rushed over to have a look, and didn't expect that the deceased was really Ren Daniu.

Su Yuan understood Bai Yutang's anger a little bit. This Daniel went to the White Mansion because of his admiration and trust for Bai Yutang.The Bai family escorted him all the way, and when he was about to go to the Kaifeng mansion, he suddenly disappeared, and then he was found dead by the side of the road.

The person was lost under the noses of Bai Yutang's subordinates. The place where the body was dumped was next to the official road, and it was very close to Tokyo City. Such a blatant and undisguised behavior was clearly a blatant provocation.

Anyone would be angry about this kind of thing, especially for Bai Yutang who has always refused to admit defeat.

"When I found out that he was missing last night, I wondered if he was getting scared and wanted to run away. At that time, there were two people guarding the door for him outside the house. Whenever he made any noise, our people would notice it.

But there was no movement at all, the rear window was open, and the moss on the outer wall showed traces of being trampled on. I guessed that he ran away quietly by himself.But there are some reasons that don't make sense. If he really didn't want to sue, why did he go all the way to Kaifeng mansion after suffering so much. "

Bai Fu took Su Yuan to the room where Ren Daniu lived in Fugou County, and pointed out to Su Yuan the traces he had surveyed at that time.

The situation was exactly as Bai Fu said, the rear window was open, and the moss on the courtyard wall corresponding to the rear window did have traces of being trampled on.

Su Yuan was looking around at the environment in the room. It couldn't compare to the big inns in the capital. The layout here is very simple, the furniture is simple, but it is a bit messy, and it has the characteristics of a peasant household.

For example, there will be dried garlic and other things hanging on the wall, some dustpans and bamboo baskets will be piled up next to the cabinet, and there will be a row of clay flower pots under the bed, with mosquito repellent grass planted inside.I heard that this arrangement is very effective in repelling mosquitoes, allowing guests to sleep until dawn without a mosquito bag on their bodies.

"Most of the inns in this county have no signboards, and the only way to attract customers is by the shopkeepers yelling outside. Passing by outsiders know that this place can be top-notch, so they will ask the price."

Bai Fu told Su Yuan that this kind of situation is very common in small towns like Fugou County, and there are many people who do not run inns. Occasionally, because they have a vacant room at home and want to earn some extra money, they will go to the street Shout twice to attract customers.

Ren Daniu lived in the main room in this courtyard last night, the room is the largest and most spacious.It can be seen that the Bai family treated him kindly when they escorted him, and tried not to let him suffer.

Between the main house and the east wing, there is a big plum tree, more than two feet high, with luxuriant branches and long side branches, almost covering half of the yard from the sun.Every branch of this tree is full of plums. Look at the fruit harvest of this tree this year.

"Who is the shopkeeper?" Su Yuan asked.

Yang quickly came over to pay her respects, saying that she and her eldest son opened this inn together.This house was originally her natal family's house, and her natal brother's family went to other places to live, and they would not come back for a year or so, so she tidied up the house and used it as an inn.

"Then does your natal elder brother know that you do this?" Bai Fu couldn't help asking.

Yang Shi smiled stiffly with the corners of his mouth pulled up, smoothed the broken hair around his ears with his hands, and agreed, "Of course I know."

Bai Yutang gave her a cold look, then looked away.obviously lying,

Su Yuan then asked Mrs. Yang if there was anything unusual last night.

Mrs. Yang nodded unconsciously, and then denied: "No, the family of the civilian woman lives across the street, and they go to bed early every day, so they don't know that someone was lost here last night."

Bai Yutang couldn't bear it anymore, he drew his knife out——

Su Yuan quickly winked at Yang Shi: "At this time, don't make jokes."

Seeing Bai Huanghuang's big knife, Yang was startled, and tremblingly said: "I, I, I... didn't—"

"Aren't you joking? You just said a few words, none of which are true. You're not joking. Could it be that you deliberately gave false testimony to deceive the officials? Collusion with bandits?" Su Yuan asked repeatedly.

Yang's face turned pale instantly, and he knelt on the ground to express that he didn't dare.

"Last night, the women heard some movement, that is, after they found that the person was gone and left on a fast horse, a carriage stopped at the door of the house.

The woman was wondering if it was a group of people, but she saw four strong men with big knives getting off the carriage. Not long after they entered the house, they came out carrying a sack, threw the sack into the cart and gone. "

"How big is the sack, can it hold a person?" Su Yuan asked again.

"Night, night, night is dark..."

Before Yang could finish her sentence, Su Yuan suddenly stepped aside, making her face the boy in white.Yang Shi trembled all over, and confessed with sobs.

"But I can vaguely see that it is, yes, it can hold a person."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Bai Fu and the others were extremely angry. If they had known that Ren Daniu had not escaped by himself, but had been hijacked by someone, and they knew the direction of the hijacked person, why would they have searched so chaotically that they couldn't find anyone all night.

After all, this is the boundary of Tokyo, at the feet of the emperor, if they can take a step earlier in time, perhaps Ren Daniu will not die.

Yang swallowed and spit, and said timidly and fearfully: "At that time, the women didn't know that you were officials, and thought that neither group of people should be offended. The women were afraid that if they interfered in their own affairs, they would cause death! "

"But when we were questioning just now, you already knew the identity of our official post, but you didn't take the initiative to explain." Su Yuan once again exposed Yang's lies.

Yang was completely panicked, crying and begging for mercy: "The folk woman, the folk woman, the folk woman is..."

"You think that the government will not do anything to you, but those thieves are vicious, and if they find out that you are the one who sued, they will definitely retaliate against you. So you would rather lie to the government to conceal what the thieves did."

Bai Yutang snorted coldly, eyes full of contempt and disgust.He swung his knife sharply at Yang.

Yang was shocked, and yelled "Aww"——

Bai Fu and the others knew their fifth master's temper, and they were shocked when they saw this scene, and they all froze in place.The result is not difficult to predict, even if the Yang family is alive, there must be some shortcomings.

clang!

clang!

clang!

Bai Yutang suddenly turned his blade, blocking several flying 'hidden weapons'.

"Well, there are a lot of plums."

Su Yuan looked up at the plum tree, just when an unripe green plum fell straight down and hit her left eye.

The white light flickered, and a gust of knife wind swept across.

Su Yuan heard the sound of "clang" again, and the plum that was supposed to hit her eyes was blown away, and it hit the door panel on the east side straightly, the pulp collided with the door panel, and the juice splashed everywhere.However, the fruit core passed through the door panel and drove into the room, leaving a pierced round hole in the door panel.

Yang was so frightened that she lay on the ground, she was dumbfounded.When she came back to her senses, she hurriedly touched her neck to make sure she was still alive, just now she almost thought that her head would move.

Who is this boy in white?Is it really a government official?Even if the bandits on the mountain are not as fierce as him, the wife is scary!Yang Shi trembled, her teeth chattered in fright, making a slight noise.

She couldn't wait to escape, but her legs were so weak that she couldn't stand up at all.Before Bai Yutang noticed her, Yang scrambled desperately towards the door.

"Fifth Lord saved my life." After Su Yuan thanked, she blinked her eyes and asked Bai Yutang in doubt, "The plums are not yet ripe, why did they suddenly drop so many?"

As soon as Su Yuan finished speaking, Bai Yutang heard a slight snapping sound.He yelled "Be careful", and immediately pulled Su Yuan back, protecting people directly behind him.

What Bai Yutang grabbed was Su Yuan's left arm. The summer clothes are thin, so Su Yuan could clearly feel the heat from his palm.When his sleeves were fluttering, there was a faint cold sandalwood, which was actually not pure sandalwood, but also mixed with other smells, which were a little bit clear, and smelled a little sweet.

Crack!

The branch of the thick plum tree that was originally above their heads broke suddenly, and hit another branch when it fell, causing countless plums to smash to the ground.

The broken branch just hit the back of Yang who was about to crawl away. Yang let out a cry of "Ouch", and subconsciously straightened her limbs and head. turtle.

Then, one after another, the plums hit the top of Yang's head one after another, each time it didn't hurt too much, but it was not without pain. Anyway, after such a blow, Yang was a little dazed. up.

Bai Yutang originally wanted to check the reason why the plums fell abnormally just now, but there were so many plums all at once, it was hard to check again.

"How did this branch for no reason suddenly break?"

"It must be that the two children from Zhou's family in Dongwu came to climb trees and steal plums again. They broke two branches last year, and they are here again this year!" Mrs. Yang was furious from being hit, maybe because her head hurt too much. , I forgot for a moment that I was still running for my life.

After she finished complaining angrily, and felt the eyes of everyone looking at her, especially the cold light from the ghostly man in white, Yang suddenly realized her situation.

Yang cried and kowtowed and begged for mercy, begging them to let her go, and she promised not to tell another lie.

Bai Yutang was furious, and had no intention of letting Yang go.Of course it is hateful for wicked people to do evil, but these "shit stirrers" who bully the good and fear the evil, and even help the evil to bully others, are also disgusting.

"I found out!"

Su Yuan's voice suddenly came from the main room.

It was only then that Bai Yutang, Bai Fu and the others noticed that Su Yuan had entered the house at some point.

Since I heard that she has discovered something, I want to see what she discovered first.

Before Bai Fu followed Bai Yutang into the house, he warned Yang that it was best not to run around, otherwise he would completely anger the fifth master of his family, and the consequences would be at his own risk.

Yang Shi nodded again and again, and when the yard was almost empty, she looked at the gate that was close at hand for a few times.But thinking of the way that evil god showed his power just now, and his martial arts so superb that she could not see the moves with her naked eyes, Yang Shi hesitated and hesitated, not daring.

"There's something wrong with the bed board." Su Yuan pressed the bed board and motioned for Bai Yutang to see it.

Bai Yutang also pressed, and sure enough, he found that under the strong pressure, the inner side of the bed board was movable and would gradually sag downwards.If the whole person lies on the bed board, the bed board will tilt a little bit until it reaches the bottom of the bed.

If someone is fast asleep in the bed, they will roll down to the bottom of the bed unconsciously.After the bed board has no weight, it will rebound to its original state a little bit.

Because curtains are hung on all four sides of the bed, if you don't get close to the bed and lift the innermost curtain, you won't notice that the window is not actually against the wall.There is a gap between the inner side of the bed and the wall, and this gap is just big enough for one person to lie on.

In other words, Ren Daniu was probably unconsciously rolled into the crevice at the bottom of the bed by the mechanism of the bed.

Afterwards, someone quietly opened the window, showing traces of moss trampled on the wall, and faked the illusion that Ren Daniu had sneaked away quietly.

Because there is a row of flower pots on the outside of the bed, where mosquito repellent grass is planted for mosquito repellent.When the guards of the Bai family entered the house but failed to find Ren Daniu, they saw the open window and never thought that there would be someone hiding under the bed.

They were short of manpower, and they wanted to send people to search for them, and at the same time, they wanted to report the situation to Tokyo. When everyone dispersed, the real murderer appeared and took the opportunity to get the sleeping Ren Daniu away.

"The real culprit of this case has been planning for a long time. Presumably, he has followed you all the way, calculated when you will enter Beijing, and then used a plan to intercept you."

Su Yuan speculated, so he went outside the house, looked at Yang Shi who was lying on the ground obediently, and asked her where the bed in the main room came from.

Yang immediately realized that there was a problem, and quickly explained.

"During the first ten days before you nobles moved in, this house has been rented by a man who looks like a scholar. He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he loves to smile. He doesn't look like a bad guy.

He said that he has no other problems, but picks the bed. He thinks the bed in the main room is too old and creaks when he turns over, so he wants to change to a better bed.

I told him that the price of the hotel did not include changing the bed, and he said that he would pay for the bed himself, as long as I allowed him to make the bed.How could I refuse such a good thing, so I agreed to him naturally, and he changed the bed to live there, and the bed was exactly the one in the house. "

"He arranged the mosquito repellent as well. He left yesterday morning. I was curious about the beauty of the bed and wanted to move it home and use it for myself. It happened that some noble people were coming to stay in the shop, so I didn't have time to bother, so I thought about it first. Let’s talk about this business.”

Su Yuan asked the guards of the Bai family why they chose this inn to stay.

"When we first entered Fugou County and planned to live in a hotel, a local person enthusiastically introduced her house to us, saying that there happened to be a house vacant for several of us to live in."

From this everyone understands that from the time they entered Fugou County, they were being calculated every step they took.

"It didn't start from Fugou County, but from Ren Daniu's sudden abdominal pain."

Bai Yutang asked his subordinates to recall the cause of Ren Daniu's abdominal pain.

"We have carefully checked the food and drink along the way, and even bought the water ourselves." The guards of the Bai family couldn't figure this out either.

"correct!"

A guard suddenly remembered something.

"While on the road yesterday, I met some children playing by the field. Ren Daniu likes children very much, a chubby little boy ran to him, and he teased them for a while.

The little boy took a piece of snack and fed it to Ren Daniu, and Ren Daniu ate it.The reason why we didn't stop him was because we saw that the little boy was innocent and he ate a bite of snack before feeding Ren Daniu. "

Bai Yutang snorted coldly, "It's really a good plan."

Bai Fu: "But I don't understand, this bed has rolled people to the ground, why is Ren Daniu still awake? Deep sleep?"

As long as he screamed at that time, the guards outside would be able to save him in time.

"Abdominal pain, I've taken medicine." Bai Yutang reminded Bai Fu in a cold voice, with obvious contempt for his stupidity.

Bai Fu immediately understood, asked the Bai family guards for a prescription, and took someone to the doctor in Fugou County who prescribed the medicine.

"I could have poisoned people directly through the mouth, but it took so much trouble to steal people from under your subordinates' noses. Why do I feel that the real murderer seems to have a grudge against you?"

Su Yuan felt a lot of targeting. The other party seemed to just want to play Bai Yutang's people like monkeys, and then provoke Bai Yutang to anger him.

"There is a grudge." Bai Yutang agreed in a cold voice.

"Then do you have an idea, who wants to provoke you like this, make you an enemy, and also have something to do with Ren Daniu's case?" Su Yuan refined his thinking for Bai Yutang.

"Does not survive."

"Doesn't the doctor live?" Su Yuan didn't know much about Jianghu affairs, but he had never heard of this name.

"He was originally a doctor, but later he became a quack killer. He only paid money to kill people but not to heal the living, so he was nicknamed 'doctors can't live'. This guy is smart and likes to show off. He has an awl knife, which specializes in stabbing People's hearts. I killed his wife and children, so he naturally hates me."

When Bai Yutang mentioned murdering his wife and children, his tone was very calm.

Su Yuan asked, "Isn't there a saying that 'the crime is not as good as your wife and children'?"

"The male scourge seeks the mother scourge, and a bunch of small scourges are born. No one in the family is a good thing, and everyone carries their lives on their backs."

Bai Yutang then told Su Yuan: "If my guess is correct, the fat kid who feeds Ren Daniu with snacks is probably his youngest son."

"If the child knows that he is harming others and pretends to be so innocent, that is really bad enough."

It is hard to imagine what this child will be like when he grows up.

"What crime is worse than wife and children, I have never been so particular about it here. Whoever commits evil willfully and acts as a minion for a tiger will die." Bai Yutang said angrily.

Su Yuan quickly echoed: "Fifth Lord is wise, especially today."

"Why?" These words attracted Bai Yutang's attention to Su Yuan.

"Isn't it the wisest move to find out the facts of the case, identify the mastermind behind the scenes, make a decision before acting?" Su Yuan asked.

Bai Yutang looked at her: "Are you mocking me for being too impulsive?"

"No, on the contrary, I think it is a good thing for a person to have spirit. Without the threat from the fifth master just now, Mrs. Yang may not be able to tell the truth until now. If a country does not have ministers of spirit, the country will decline. Spirit is like the sun, it is everything The power of initiation." Su Yuan said.

Bai Yutang chuckled, this time the smile was not too cold, it actually had a sense of brilliance, a little pleasing to the eye.

"It's not in vain to learn to read from Mr. Gongsun. I'm getting better at eloquence."

"You were praising me at that time." As soon as Su Yuan finished speaking, there was a grunt from his stomach.

She immediately covered her stomach and turned away in embarrassment.Su Yuan suddenly smelled the faintly sweet fragrance from Bai Yutang's body again, and it seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.She moved her eyes along the scent, and saw Bai Yutang handing him a package of things.

Small paper bag, bigger than a palm.

Su Yuan took it and opened it to see the kidney bean rolls from Zhuangyuanlou!

This is a famous dim sum in Kyoto, and it is delicious.No wonder there was a sweet smell on Bai Yutang's body just now, so it turned out to be something delicious.

After eating some snacks, Su Yuan's stomach felt much more comfortable.

After a stick of incense, after inspection, the guards of the Bai family confirmed that the pharmacy boy who gave them the medicine yesterday was a fake.

At that time, someone took away the owner of the pharmacy with an excuse, and a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes pretended to be a pharmacy boy and prescribed medicine for them.

Fortunately, the dregs of the medicine were still there, so Su Yuan brought them back to the Kaifeng mansion and asked Gongsun Ce and the doctors in the mansion to check it out. Finally, it was found that the medicine was mixed with herbs that could cause drowsiness.

After Bao Zheng heard about the case, he attached great importance to it, saying that he must arrest the "doctor can't live" who is playing tricks and doing evil.

"This Daniel Ren has been chased and killed several times, what is the grievance he sued for?" Bao Zheng asked Bai Yutang.

"What do you think the copper mine can do?" Bai Yutang asked back.

Bao Zheng was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened in surprise, "Could it be—"

"Exactly." Bai Yutang said, "Someone in Yongkang Copper Pit minted copper coins privately, digging out a hole in the treasury."

"This is a serious crime!" Gongsun Ce frowned, "Unexpectedly, the Jiangning Mansion was also involved in it. This case should not be underestimated."

"Now that the only witness is dead, we need to collect evidence and report it to the emperor, and order an investigation as soon as possible." Bao Zheng sighed.

……

In the evening, Su Yuan took off her bun and was about to go to bed when she heard a knock on the door.

Su Yuan pulled up her hair casually, opened the door and saw Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang stood tall and straight in front of the door, looking down at Su Yuan.With a clean hibiscus face, broken hair fell along her cheeks and fell to her ears. With the night wind blowing, the ends of her hair slightly rubbed against her smooth cheeks, making one feel the urge to help her tidy up her broken hair.

After a while, seeing that the girl didn't wake up at all, she just yawned, Bai Yutang opened her mouth.

"Snowflake Crisp?"

Su Yuan covered her mouth and yawned, and was about to ask Bai Yutang why she was bothering her so late.Hearing these three words suddenly, all her righteousness and confidence that were ready to go were swallowed back in her stomach in an instant.

She blinked, stared blankly at Bai Yutang with innocent eyes, and said aggrievedly, "I forgot."

"forget?"

Bai Yutang deliberately asked back, seeing that Su Yuan was still nodding innocently, he pointed her straight at her.

"When you invited me to eat snowflake crisps, you had a plan in mind. Is it so easy to forget?"

"What kind of plans can I have? I'm very simple." Su Yuan continued to pretend to be dumb, "Why don't you make up two snowflake crisps for Master Wu tomorrow?"

"You owe me too much. After all, I'm still your ancestor." Bai Yutang said carelessly, "I'm afraid there will be a day when you owe me so much. You can only pay me yourself."

"Oh——" Su Yuan yawned again, because she had to get up early to practice every day, and had to go to bed early at night, at this moment she was really sleepy and her head was dull.

"Did you hear me?" Bai Yutang's tone became more serious.

"I heard that, please do so. If you owe too much, I will pay you back." Su Yuan kept yawning, unable to bear the drowsiness. After saying a word, she quickly closed the door and got into the bed she missed the most. Turned over and fell asleep.

Facing the closed door, Bai Yutang said, "..."

Kong Sheng is sincere and never deceives others, it is indeed difficult to deal with women.If he had rejected Su Yuan immediately at that time, this girl must have held grudges.But he stayed accommodatingly, but she didn't cherish it, and just left him in the cold.

It turned out that both choices had the same result: there was no snowflake crisp to eat.

Bai Yutang suppressed his face and left with his hands behind his back.

……

In the Su residence, Mrs. Li clutched the handkerchief uneasily.

She waited until late at night, only to see Su Jinjing enter the door reeking of alcohol.

Mrs. Li hurriedly supported Su Jinjing, asked the servant girl to prepare hot water for serving, and ordered someone to make soup to sober up.

While wiping Su Jinjing's face, she lamented that he had so many entertainments when he first moved into Beijing.

"It's a good thing to make friends with dignitaries and dignitaries. The busier you are, the better."

After Su Jinjing wiped his face, he sobered up a lot. After sitting down and drinking two sips of tea, he kept staring at Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li felt a little uneasy when he looked at her, and touched her face, but she didn't find anything on her face, so she didn't understand what he meant.

"What happened to Kaifeng Mansion?" Xu Shi mentioned what he didn't want to mention the last time, Su Jinjing frowned, his face was not as relaxed as before.

"Already asked Su Xi to visit her, but she was even more reticent than before. Not only did she not follow our words, she acquiesced in her identity, and directly denied it completely, saying that she was not the baby back then. I don't know who it was Teach her, I think she is very defensive, if we want to recognize her, we have to show evidence. But where do we have evidence for this?"

Li Shi asked back worriedly.

Su Jinjing frowned even harder, and then he thought of something, and his face relaxed again
