Kaifeng Mansion's Little Boss

Daoist Wang Chuan smiled, "It's very rare to see someone with Su Judici's temperament. If everyone in the world is like Su Judici, the poor Taoist will not shy away from ordering others."

"It turns out that the Taoist priest doesn't like giving orders to others?"

"I was young and frivolous at first, and had no scruples, but later I realized that disaster came out of my mouth."

When Daoist Wang Chuan mentioned this matter, he couldn't help but glance at Su Yuan.

"Su Jin respects the kindness of Pindao. He begged Pindao to do some fortune-telling. Pindao could not refuse, but he almost harmed Su Judiciary. Dao has been cleared of his crimes, and Pindao is extremely grateful."

"If the fate is like this, even if the Taoist leader doesn't say it, Su Jinjing will still find someone else to approve it. And later this time the fate was very good, which stimulated him to rush to do it, which saved me from being on guard against him all the time."

It doesn't matter if Su Yuan's strength allows her to take it easy.

Daoist Wang Chuan was stunned for a moment, "Su Judiciary is a hero and courageous. This kind of courage is something everyone has. But sometimes people can't do without faith in fate. For example, these years, Pindao has been tracking down the whereabouts of his juniors, and he can always count them. Seeing someone close at hand, but why can't see him."

Su Yuan laughed, "This question may be very simple."

"I also ask Judiciary Su to clear up the confusion." Daoist Wang Chuan bowed.

"Then I have to trouble the Taoist priest to explain to me first, who is this Lin Xi?"

Su Yuan's attitude became serious, and he stared closely at Taoist Wang Chuan.

Daoist Wang Chuan: "Pindao really doesn't know what his life experience is. He never mentioned it himself, and neither did Master. But the master told Pindao before he died that he must be found and not let him get away. If he doesn't If you are willing to go back to the ice cave, then use extraordinary methods."

"An extraordinary method?" Su Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"Either kill or maim." Daoist Wang Chuan didn't dare to look Su Yuan in the eyes when he replied, his tone was full of shame.

"A serious Taoist priest must not kill people casually, let alone hurt his fellow disciples. The Taoist master's master actually asked the Taoist priest to do such a thing, but because of what is so special about Lin Xi?"

Daoist Wang Chuan hesitated.

"Since this is the case, why doesn't the Taoist chief join hands with our Kaifeng mansion? There are many people in the government office, and they are all very good at finding people and investigating cases. With the help of the yamen, the Taoist chief will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

Su Yuan informed Taoist Wang Chuan that Wu Saaizi was commonly known as Guijianshou, and that the three Guijianshou assassins deliberately framed him.

"We suspect that the Jianghu murderous organization Gui Jianchou may be related to the Taoist priest's younger brother."

Daoist Wang Chuan was shocked, "Pindao also knows that the common name of this trouble-free son is ghosts, but he never thought that this kind of murderous organization turned out to be... But why did he frame Pindao like this? Pindao is only looking for him now , Never told outsiders to kill him."

Su Yuan: "Perhaps the Taoist master knows the answer very well. For example, why did Lin Xi leave suddenly before the death of the Taoist master? Did Lin Xi anticipate the Taoist master's deathbed confession?"

After thinking about it for a while, Daoist Wang Chuan told Su Yuan something that still makes him feel a little palpitating when he thinks about it.

"Junior brother has been different from ordinary people since he was a child. He is clever in every way. He was as wise as an adult when he was seven years old. No matter what the master taught him, he learned it easily. Almost everything is better than the poor. He was not good at divination. He didn't like to chant scriptures, and he couldn't bear to sit in meditation for a long time, so he would often sneak out during this time.

Once the master was not there when he went down the mountain, Pindao took him to meditate with his eyes closed, and after about half an hour, when Pindao opened his eyes, he disappeared.Later, Pindao looked for him everywhere, and finally saw him lying in a pool of blood with six white deer in the woods.

Pindao thought that something happened to him, so he rushed over, but saw him suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and suddenly smiled at Pindao.Pindao was taken aback at the time, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart.Later, I heard him explain that when he got here, all six deer were dead, and he accidentally slipped and fell when he came to check.He was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and when he saw Pindao coming, he regained his energy.

The six white deer were a gift received by the Daoist Temple on Qingcheng Mountain at that time, implying auspiciousness, but they somehow escaped from the Taoist temple.Pindao had seen the wounds of the six deer, all of them were bitten on the neck.Those bite marks are not like the bites of ordinary animals, there are no traces of sharp teeth, they are more blunt, and even somewhat like human bite marks.

At that time, Pindao thought about doubting his junior brother, but considering that he was only eight years old and not as tall as a deer, it shouldn't be him.And how could a child of his subdue six deer at once.

When Pindao took him back to freshen up, he found that his mouth was also stained with blood and deer hair. He said that it was because he screamed when he fell down that his mouth was full of blood.He also begged me not to tell Master about this matter, if Master knew that he did not recite scriptures well and went out naughty and got blood all over, he would definitely be punished.

Pindao was begged by him several times at that time, seeing him kowtow to Pindao on his knees, Pindao forgiven him for being clever and well-behaved, so he agreed.

This matter made Pindao feel uncomfortable for a long time, but he was afraid that he was paranoid, and after a long time, he gradually let it go.Until Pindao heard the entrustment of the master before he died, although the master did not tell Pindao the reason in detail, but the warning words made Pindao couldn't help thinking about it, and felt that the doubts he had vaguely at that time might actually be the truth . "

Daoist Wang Chuan was not sure whether his junior brother was really dangerous, but this feeling was very wrong, and coupled with the fact that the master's order must not be violated, he decided to find his junior brother and investigate clearly.Who would have thought that 25 years later, his question still has no answer.

"Did the Taoist priest never give Lin Xi any orders?" Su Yuan felt that so far, Taoist Wang Chuan's orders were quite accurate.

"Of course I've counted it. It's the fate of keeping one's life in order and being a little rich. But Pindao suspects that his birthday horoscope may be fake, and the divination result is far from his own." Wang Chuan said.

Su Yuan sighed: "Then his name Lin Xi may be fake."

Daoist Wang Chuan froze for a moment, then nodded, feeling that it might indeed be a lie.

But now that I think about it carefully, if a five-year-old child lied about his birth date and name, how scheming it was.

"If the killer of Gui Jianchou was really sent by Junior Brother Pindao, why can't Pindao not understand why he framed him, and why he refused to show himself to meet Pindao."

"This is going to go back to the question that the Taoist priest started. Why did the Taoist priest always feel that the younger brother is close at hand, but he has never seen him in the past 25 years?"

Su Yuan may not know enough about other things, but he has a thorough understanding of abnormalities.

Daoist Wang Chuan immediately looked at Su Yuan, and waited for Su Yuan to give her an answer with all his attention.

"Maybe it's not the Taoist priest who has been chasing him these years, but he has been paying attention to you, Taoist priest."

Daoist Wang Chuan was startled: "What do you mean?"

"He has been paying attention to the Taoist priest near the Taoist priest, and knows the Taoist priest's whereabouts like the palm of his hand, so no matter how the Taoist priest searches for him in the past 25 years, he cannot be found."

Su Yuan cites this case as an example. A few days after Taoist Wang Chuan went to Wanshilou to spend money to buy news, false news came to his door, and then there was such a scene of framing.

If this calculation is not premeditated, it is impossible.

Then someone must have paid attention to the whereabouts of Taoist Wang Chuan in advance.

Of course, the premise of these inferences is that Taoist Wang Chuan did not lie, the note he provided is true, and the so-called Junior Brother Lin Xi in his mouth is indeed a real person.

After hearing Su Yuan's reasoning, Daoist Wang Chuan opened his mouth, but finally he bowed his head and remained silent.

"Su Justice thinks that this ghostly sorrow is really related to my junior brother?" After a long silence, Master Wang Chuan asked Su Yuan again for confirmation.

"If the words of the Taoist priest are true, there must be a relationship."

Nothing happens to this degree of coincidence.

"The poor Taoist agreed to Su Judici's proposal. From now on, the poor Taoist will cooperate with the Kaifeng government's investigation at any time, and do his best to help the Kaifeng government arrest Lin Xi." Daoist Wang Chuan said firmly.

"Then ask the Taoist priest to cooperate with us in all actions, obey all our arrangements, and not make decisions without authorization." Su Yuan said.

Priest Wang Chuan nodded, expressing his willingness.

"It's too much to scare the snake. The Taoist priest doesn't have to go in and out of Kaifeng Mansion frequently. We will arrange someone to pass the news to the Taoist priest. There is no need to tell other people about the joint venture."

When Su Yuan sent off Taoist Wang Chuan, he did not forget to explain the details clearly.

Priest Wang Chuan agreed and bowed solemnly to her before turning around to say goodbye.

Su Yuan watched his figure disappear, felt someone approaching behind him, and glanced sideways at Bai Yutang who was walking over.

Thinking of the orders given to Bai Yutang by Taoist Wangchuan just now, Su Yuan smiled at Bai Yutang.

"Are you clear?" Bai Yutang asked.

"Ah."

Sun He rushed out of the house, and was about to discuss with Su Yuan whether he should go to a nearby Taoist temple that is more effective, and then ask the powerful Taoist priest to give Bai Wuye a new order.Anyway, she didn't believe what the suspicious Taoist Wang Chuan said.

Just as Sun He was about to speak, he saw Bai Yutang and immediately covered his mouth.

Seeing Sun He's reaction, Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows and asked Sun He, "Could it be that you want to speak ill of me to your boss?"

"Don't dare, fifth master is too worried. I just want to discuss with the boss whether we should go to the Taoist temple to pray again. It seems that we are about to get engaged, and the gods from all walks of life must greet each other properly." Sun He After saying this, he secretly praised himself for his quick response in his heart.

Bai Yutang then asked Su Yuan which Taoist temple he planned to go to and whether he wanted to sign.

Su Yuan felt that if he asked for a lottery, Bai Yutang would rush to change the lottery holder again.

"It's enough to sign and ask once, but if you ask too much, it will appear insincere." Su Yuan said that she would simply be polite, and it would be enough to greet each god.

Bai Yutang agreed, saying that he would also greet him in place later.

Su Yuan: "Fifth Master, do you think the Taoist Wang Chuan said that this person is trustworthy?"

Bai Yutang: "If you don't know this person well, you won't be good at judging it. Just send more people to follow him. As time goes by, you will naturally know the truth."

Compared to guessing, Bai Yutang prefers the results obtained by actual actions.

The two then went to Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce to report back.

Su Yuan first talked about the situation she got from Taoist Wangchuan, "Master Wangchuan agreed to my proposal and is willing to join forces with Kaifeng Mansion."

Wang Chao felt amused when he heard this: "What can he, a Taoist priest, join hands with the Kaifeng Mansion? Could it be that he can figure out where the prisoner is?"

"Hey, maybe he can really calculate it." Su Yuan said, "At least for now, Taoist Wangchuan's divination and calculation techniques are very accurate. And if this person has no skills, he will not become the eighth sage king's mansion." guest of honor."

Everyone knows the character of the Eight Sage Kings. He is upright and resolute, and his reputation shocks the world. He has always strictly restrained himself and never socialized with courtiers casually.He was able to keep Daoist Wangchuan in the mansion, which shows that he recognized Daoist Wangchuan's virtue and cultivation.

"The former Japanese government specifically asked the Eight Sage Kings. He and the government praised Master Wangchuan for his high cultivation, good medical skills, and positive heart. Zhuge."

Bao Zheng also recognized the ability of this Taoist Wangchuan, and he had a good impression when he first saw him.But Su Yuan was almost put to death because of his order, and what happened today made Bao Zheng feel that there were too many coincidences that happened to Taoist Wang Chuan, so he must be suspicious and not believe it all.

"Now that he has agreed to join forces with the Kaifeng government, it is a good opportunity to test him. Whether his intention is good or evil, we will know soon." Gongsun Ce lamented that this precaution is indispensable, especially Wang Chuan said Long, we need to send more people to observe and monitor.

Seeing that Bai Yutang remained silent, Bao Zheng hurriedly asked him, "Is there any result in the interrogation?"

"It will take some work, but the effect is good, it should be soon."

Not long after Bai Yutang finished speaking, Bai Fu hurried back and forth to present the evidence.As for the blood sticking to Bai Fu's sleeve, no one cared.Regardless of whether people are good or bad, these quack killers only make money by taking people's lives, so they don't deserve sympathy at all.

After Bao Zheng read the evidence, he handed it over to everyone for circulation.

Kong Dayu and the other three were indeed ghost killers. They were ordered to kill Wang Minqing and his wife this morning. The reason was not given, but they were told that they would wait until a Taoist priest passed by before they could do it.The designated murder weapon is the whisk. After killing the person, throw the whisk into the stove and burn it clean, and put a whisker hair prepared earlier in the hands of the deceased.Wait for witnesses to appear, then pretend to steal money and leave, and then retreat normally.If caught, he would deny murder and only say that he robbed the money, and the reward would be doubled.If not caught, the reward is quadruple.

"It's probably expected that the Kaifeng government will arrest the three of them." Gongsun Ce was surprised when he saw the reward.

Being caught by the government, it is understandable to give more compensation.But if he was not caught, he sacrificed less, but gave more compensation, which is not in line with common sense.It can be seen that the murderer believed that the three of them were more likely to be caught by Kaifeng Mansion.But the chance of not being caught is slim and very rare, so a richer reward was offered.

"This shows that this person is very familiar with the situation of arresting people in our Kaifeng Prefecture." Bao Zheng sighed.

The more you think about this matter, the more terrifying and dangerous it becomes, that someone has planned it so far.The last time everyone felt this way was the Yongkang Copper Mine Case and the Ministry of Rites Light Ball Case that were implicated by Yi Buhuo.

The three of Kong Dayu also revealed that the place where Gui Jianchou assigned tasks in Tokyo City was a steamed stuffed bun shop with green cloth as its signboard.All the assassins who join Guijianshou, if they want to take jobs in the Tokyo area, they have to go to this Dong Er steamed stuffed bun shop to see the signboard.

If the bun shop is holding a signboard with green bamboo poles, it means that there are no assassination missions to take. If it is a signboard with a red-painted wooden pole, it means there are assassination missions that no one can take.Assassins can enter the bun shop through the back door and ask about the status of the assassination mission.

Kong Dayu and the other three received the job of assassination the day before yesterday. They went to the spot yesterday to understand the situation, and today they went to assassinate according to the buyer's request.

The job that he took on this time was a bit special for Kong Dayu. Generally, for the assassination missions that he took on, most of the buyers asked to make the assassination target look like an accidental death.

Not only was there a lot of demands this time, the murder location was relatively close to Kaifeng Mansion, and it also involved the situation of testifying after being arrested. If it wasn't for the generous rewards, Kong Dayu and the three of them would not dare to take risks casually.

"You can get 5 taels of silver if you kill Wang Minqing and his wife who don't know any martial arts at all. This is indeed a high asking price."

After Zhan Zhao sighed with emotion, he suddenly felt a little strange.

"Looking at the description of the evidence, the murderer appointed Wang Minqing and his wife to be killed, not other people in the alley, or anyone else in other places. Why did they have to designate to kill this couple when they framed Taoist Master Wangchuan?"

Zhao Hu scratched his head and tried to answer: "Because they have a fire pit, can they burn the murder weapon?"

Su Yuan: "Perhaps someone originally planned to buy murder to kill Wang Mingqing and his wife, and framing Taoist Wang Chuan is an extra one."

Gongsun Ce echoed Su Yuan's words: "It is not ruled out that the two missions are merged into one."

Wang Chao heard that someone else might have paid for the murder of Wang Mingqing and his wife, and felt very strange.

"After the incident, I took someone to ask the neighbors around me, and I also asked some old customers who often go to their house for breakfast. They all said that the couple is usually easy-going and has never quarreled with others. The neighbors get along with them. For more than ten years, I have never seen their husband and wife blush with anyone.

Everyone praises their husband and wife as kind-hearted and honest people, but it is a pity that they have no children and grandchildren. After sending their eldest daughter to Emei, their husband and wife have three children successively, and none of the three children can live past eight years. Some died at the age of two or three. "

"Wang Minqing and his wife set up a stall selling breakfast in a deep alley, and most of the people they come into contact with are ordinary people. It is almost impossible for wealthy people to go there and have a relationship with them. People who are willing to spend 6 taels to buy the lives of their husband and wife , must be either rich or expensive, this point is really unreasonable." Bai Yutang said.

Zhao Hu said a little excitedly: "That is to say, my previous guess was correct, because their husband and wife have a stove to burn the dust?"

"Maybe the answer lies in Wang Yu." Su Yuan said suddenly.

Bao Zheng and others listened to Su Yuan's brief talk about Wang Yu's situation, judging from her daring to speak out and criticize the fact that the princess of the county and Mrs. Xiangguo did not line up.It is indeed very likely that Wang Yu offended the powerful and suffered revenge.

Now Wang Yuren is still in the corpse room of Kaifeng Mansion, accompanying the corpses of Wang Minqing and his wife.

Fang Yuzuo reported to Bao Zheng that Wang Yu was still very emotional, even though she seemed to be silent now, she didn't want anyone to disturb her.Before he asked a little bit, Wang Yu looked at people as if he wanted to kill him.

Suddenly losing his parents within one day, Bao Zheng understands Wang Yu's pain.Wang Yu is a woman, so it is more convenient for a woman to comfort her.

Bao Zheng asked Su Yuan and Sun He to comfort Wang Yu, and tried to see if he could get any useful information from her.

Bao Zheng then ordered Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao to bring people straight to Dong Er's Bun Shop, and it was best to arrest all the villains without letting any of them go.

However, things backfired, and Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao were empty-handed at Dong Er's Bun Shop.To be precise, it can't be called a blow to the air, the bun shop is still in operation.But the bun shop changed hands last night, and the person who originally ran the bun shop evacuated that night, taking nothing but their belongings.

The new owner of the Baozi Shop bought the Baozi Shop at a price that was [-]% lower than the market price, and happily thought that he would bargain and take advantage of it.It wasn't until he was surrounded by the government that he realized how he took advantage of it. This place was actually a gathering place for a gang of murderous villains, which was extremely unlucky.

After painting the portraits of the former owner and staff of the bun shop, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao returned to Kaifeng Mansion and ordered the government servants to post portraits of Luo Shengyuan, the owner of the bun shop, and others at the city gate and at various checkpoints.

In the afternoon, Su Yuan made a bowl of plain noodles for Wang Yu to eat.

Wang Yu refused to leave the morgue at first, but was dragged out by Sun He.After she smelled the fragrance of the noodles, she couldn't help crying, feeling that her mother loves making noodles the most, and she also likes eating noodles the most.

"I was hungry in the middle of the night last night. I sneaked into the kitchen to find something to eat. My mother found out. She made me a bowl of noodles and added an egg."

"I also planned to add eggs to you, but these eggs shouldn't be regarded as vegetarian. Your parents just left, so I'm afraid adding them will offend you." Su Yuan explained.

"Yes, I can't eat eggs, that's fine." Wang Yu cried and finished eating the noodles, choked up several times, and coughed several times.

"How long are you going to be sad like this?" Su Yuan asked.

Wang Yu froze for a moment.

"I'm not very good at comforting people, but I think if crying can't solve any problems, don't cry. Save your energy to avenge your parents, isn't it good?"

Wang Yumo paused, nodded, and wanted to wipe away tears with his sleeve.

Su Yuan handed Wang Yu a white handkerchief.

After Wang Yu wiped away her tears, she seemed to have listened to Su Yuan's persuasion, and began to inquire about the situation of the case with all her attention.

"Have you found out who killed my parents? Is it the Taoist priest? Will Mr. Bao behead him in court? When? I must go and see!"

"It's not him." Su Yuan asked Wang Yu to taste the fried pear paste she made, scooped two spoonfuls out of the jar, brewed it with deep well water, and added two mint leaves into it.

Wang Yu took a sip. The pear taste was strong, cool and sweet. Not only was it very irritating to drink, but this fruity sweetness could inexplicably soothe people's uneasy emotions. Slowly, one sip after another, it seemed that the sweetness Can gradually nourish the heart.

"Listen to a story first. On the way home, the rabbit saw a little wolf bullying a chicken. The rabbit felt wronged and kicked the little wolf away. The mother was reunited, and the family of three lived happily. Later, the wolf father heard that the little wolf was bullied, and in order to revenge the rabbit, he ran to kill the rabbit father and the rabbit mother. Who do you think is the good guy in this story? Who is the villain? Who is at fault?"

Wang Yu immediately understood what Su Yuan's story meant, and she looked at Su Yuan excitedly: "You mean, my parents were killed because of me?"

"Did I say that?"

"But in the story you told..."

"You haven't answered my question yet." Su Yuan said.

Wang Yu: "Both the little wolf and the wolf father are bad people. There are people who are wrong. The rabbit and the family of rabbit father and mother are good people. The rabbit is also at fault—"

"Wrong, the rabbit is right!" Sun He immediately thought about what Wang Yu said, she didn't want Wang Yu to blame herself, this was what she was most worried about.

"You all answered wrong."

Su Yuan's words immediately attracted the attention of Wang Yu and Su Yuan.

"Where did I go wrong?" Sun He was puzzled.

Su Yuan: "There are no people in my story. It's just the story of the rabbit and the wolf. It has nothing to do with people. Therefore, no one is wrong, no one is good, and no one is bad."

Sun He: "..."

Wang Yu: "..."

"Boss, then what is your purpose for telling this story?" Sun He asked impassively.

"Pay attention to reviewing the questions, otherwise it will be easy to answer the wrong questions due to habitual cognition." Su Yuan said.

Sun He scratched his head, but he still didn't understand the purpose of his boss choosing to tell this story at such a time.

Wang Yu's eyes flickered, he glanced at Su Yuan, and then lowered his eyes.

"I also don't understand the meaning of Miss Su's words." Wang Yu said.

"From birth to growing up, people will encounter various problems. You must first learn to examine the questions, and then answer the questions, in order to find the correct answer and choose the right path. The death of your parents is what you encounter now. Questions, you have to review the questions yourself, set an answer for yourself, and choose the next path to take."

After Su Yuan drank a bowl of fried pear paste, he stared at Wang Yu, and asked her if she had examined it clearly and decided how to go next.

Wang Yu took a sniff, mustered up her courage and nodded.

"I've made it clear. I want to stay in Kaifeng Mansion to find the murderer and avenge my parents!" Wang Yu looked at Su Yuan. Can you be called to stay here?"

"Of course we can! We are short of female yamen servants. With your skills, you will definitely be selected. There will be one more female yamen servants. With the two of us!" Sun He said happily.

Wang Yu nodded in agreement, looked at Su Yuan again, and asked Su Yuan, "Can I really stay?"

"The examination of the yamen servants in Kaifeng Mansion will definitely not trouble you. If you want to stay, you will naturally be able to stay." Su Yuan asked Wang Yu to think about what noble person she had offended before, and she would be treated like this. revenge.

Wang Yu frowned: "That's too much, I have done a lot of injustices on the way home."

Su Yuan asked her to recall carefully and list all the people she had offended.

Afterwards, Sun He took Wang Yu to write the testimony.

Su Yuan rested his chin in his hand, watching Wang Yu's leaving back, his eyes gradually narrowed.

Suddenly, she pulled one corner of her mouth and smiled strangely.

wrong answer!
