Kaifeng Mansion's Little Boss

Su Yuan closed the door and window tightly, held the envelope with tweezers, and observed through the light of the oil lamp. After confirming that there was only one letter and a ring-shaped object in the envelope, she cut the envelope with scissors.

First a piece of jade fell out of the envelope, and then there was a piece of letter paper folded into a square.

Su Yuan unfolded the letter paper, only to see that only one word was densely written on the letter paper from beginning to end: pretty.

A word is quite simple, you can know what it is at a glance, even if you think about it, you can't figure out what it means.

Su Yuan didn't bother to think about it, closed his eyes and felt that the surroundings were very quiet, and there was no danger.She yawned, ran to bed and fell asleep soon.

When Su Yuan woke up, it was already dark, and the things on the table were still there.After she washed her face, she decided to go to Gongsun Ce with the intention.

After opening the door, Su Yuan saw Bai Fu squatting on the stone steps in front of her door.

"What are you waiting for here?" Su Yuan asked her.

Bai Fu raised his head in a daze, and after seeing Su Yuan, he quickly regained his composure and got up to apologize to Su Yuan.

"Fifth Lord is afraid that Miss Su will be hungry when she wakes up, so I specially ordered the villain to wait for Miss Su here." Bai Fu told Su Yuan that the cook in the kitchen had already prepared meals, and as long as Miss Su gave orders, the dishes would be ready immediately. can come up.

"I didn't expect it, but I was really hungry when I heard you mention it." Su Yuan went to the next door and asked Sun He if he was up. When Sun He heard that there was delicious food, he immediately jumped out of bed and said that he was up early, and then hurriedly put on clothes. clothing.

"Then bring the food to her, and we'll eat together later."

Bai Fu smiled and agreed, and he was about to step down.

Su Yuan went out of the courtyard with him, and asked him by the way: "Where's your fifth master?"

"An hour ago, He Zhan escorted them to the prison to interrogate the prisoners." Bai Fu said.

Su Yuan promised that after she separated from Bai Fu, she met several yamen servants and minor officials of Kaifeng Mansion on the road.

When these people saw Su Yuan, they immediately stopped in their tracks and greeted Su Yuan with a smirk. Both their demeanor and behavior were respectful and cautious.

They pretended to be nonchalant and continued walking, and when Su Yuan passed by them, everyone immediately turned their attention to Su Yuan, their eyes full of inquiry and curiosity.

After the yamen servants returned to Kaifeng Mansion from Zhengzhou, they spread the story of Su Yuan crazy in the mansion.Talking about how she carried a seven-foot sword and tracked down to the Marquis of Ankang, broke through the siege with her own strength, saved Mr. Bao and others, and solved the trick of ghosts and sorrows...

When everyone first heard this, they wondered if this statement was a bit exaggerated.

Until this morning, they witnessed the return of Su Yuan, Bai Yutang and others.Su Yuan was wearing a bloody skirt, and indeed he was carrying a big knife. When he got off his horse, he was still walking like flying, and he didn't look tired at all.Compared with them, Ma Han, Zhao Hu and others were completely like eggplants beaten by frost, and they were all exhausted.

It turned out that there was no exaggeration at all, it was all true!

The yamen servants no longer know how to describe their feelings, but they are very, very shocked!Unexpectedly, Miss Su, who usually looks weak and petite, turned out to be such a powerful master!Hidden too deep, completely unexpected, unbelievable!

After Su Yuan took a few steps, he felt the gaze from his back.When she looked back, she saw that the yamen servants quickly looked away, or pretended to chat or walk, and soon disappeared.

It is estimated that after a few days of adaptation, they will get used to it.

……

The ghost killers who were captured all carried more than one life on their backs.They all have to give an account of the murders they committed in the past.In particular, Wang Ding and his wife from Suji Pharmacy stayed in the haunted house for ten years, and the two committed dozens of murder cases.

In the study, Gongsun Ce was sorting out and summarizing the information of these cases one by one, and then wrote to the officials at the place where the case happened and the Ministry of Criminal Justice, asking them to review the case again.

Bao Zheng looked for other connections based on the identities of these victims.

Bao Zheng thought that Gui Jianchou was not well-known in Jianghu in the first few years of its establishment, and it was absolutely impossible to receive business as easily as it is now.But Wang Ding and his wife received quite a lot of murder business in the early years.

According to the confession of the husband and wife, they all follow the orders of their superiors to work, and they will get paid if they kill people. As for whether someone actually raped them, they are not completely sure.

"Most of the victims were from the Zhengzhou area. Especially in the first three years, merchants accounted for most of them, and there were four court officials among them. These four court officials were in charge of water transportation and salt and iron affairs respectively.

The killing methods of Wang Ding and his wife were relatively subtle. The victims looked like accidents that happened naturally, or they seemed to be killed by other enemies, so no one noticed any abnormalities in the deaths of these people back then.

"The Su family made their fortune in Zhengzhou." Su Yuan said first, then knocked on the door with a smile and walked in.

When Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce saw her coming, they immediately got up to meet her.Su Yuan was their savior.

Su Yuan hurriedly asked the two of them not to do this, just go on as usual, otherwise she would feel uncomfortable.

"On the way here, I was surrounded by people like a monkey." Su Yuan didn't want to feel uncomfortable after entering the house.

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce both laughed, and they were not polite, and took their seats.After listening to Su Yuan's report of the letter, both of them looked serious.

Bao Zheng looked at the jade and said, "This is blood jade, pure and flawless. It is a rare and good product, and it is rarely found in the market. Even if it is from Grand Master Pang, it may not have such a good product."

"So rare?" Su Yuan glanced at the fiery red jade, and still felt that Bai Yutang gave her a white jade pear flower hairpin, which was more beautiful, and could be used to kill people at critical times.

Su Yuan couldn't help touching the white jade pear hairpin on her head that had already taken a life.

"What does this word mean?" Su Yuan saw Gongsun Ce's words on the study letter the most, and hurriedly asked, "Call me savage?"

"It's not swearing, how can you give you such a rare jade jade at the same time as swearing." Gongsun Ce counted all the characters 'man' on the letter paper, "a total of [-]."

"Does this number have any special meaning?"

"No seven hundred and eight," Gongsun Ce said, "but if it's 'manman', it's exactly 350 four, which is the number of days in a year."

What the hell is Manman?Su Yuan felt his lack of knowledge.

Bao Zheng helped explain: "There is a saying in "Shan Hai Jing Xi Shan Jing": "On the mountain of Chongwu, there is a bird Yan, which is shaped like a mallard, with one wing and one eye, and it can fly when it meets each other. Big water.'”

Bao Zheng told Su Yuan that this "manman" is actually a lovebird.

Gongsun Ce glanced at the white body behind Su Yuan, and added deliberately: "That's right, it's the lovebird that 'willing to be a lovebird in the sky, and Lian Lizhi in the ground'."

"What lovebird?" Bai Yutang didn't even bother to knock on the door, and rushed into the room with big strides, picked up the letter and Yujue on the table to read.

After understanding Mr. Gongsun's explanation, Bai Yutang immediately glanced at Su Yuan.

The look in this moment's eyes is extremely delicious.

Bai Yutang wanted to tear up the letter immediately, and even wanted to throw Yujue.

Gongsun Ce hurriedly asked him to be merciful, "This is evidence, the Kaifeng mansion must be sealed and not belong to her."

Bai Yutang let go of his hands after hearing the words 'not hers', and handed over Yujue and the letter.

"It seems that someone sneaked into the Kaifeng mansion while we were away, or the mansion already had secret work and secretly sent this letter into your room. Who could have done it? What is the purpose?"

Gongsun Ce couldn't help but think of Su Yuan's eyeballs from the murderer.

Bai Yutang glanced at the piece of jade with disgust, and said in a cold voice with murderous intent, "Jue, Wang Yu."

Wang Yu?Both Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce couldn't help being somewhat surprised.

Although it is said that "Jue" is indeed "Wang Yu" when it is taken apart, Wang Yu is a woman, and the word "manman" on this letter obviously expresses his admiration for Su Yuan.Women have feelings of admiration for women, which is beyond Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce's expectations.

Bai Yutang didn't find it strange, because he had seen the way Wang Yu looked at Su Yuan with his own eyes.It would not be surprising if Wang Yu did such things as writing 'manman' letters and sending Yujue to Su Yuan.

"But Wang Yu is already dead." Gongsun Ce pondered for a moment, then speculated, "It is very likely that she ordered someone to give you this item before she went to Xingyang."

"The face of the corpse is rotten. I can't confirm with my own eyes that the face is Wang Yu. I always feel a little worried." Su Yuan felt something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Gongsun Ce understood Su Yuan's thoughts. He had just discussed the situation of Wang Yu's body with Mr. Bao.

Now it is known that all the people who have been in contact with Wang Yu do not know Wang Yu very well, so it is difficult to identify and confirm Wang Yu's body from more details.But the whole process of Wang Yu's death didn't seem to be a problem.

"I can't find out about the letter for a while, so you two should go to rest and have dinner first."

Gongsun Ce saw the pair of Bi people leave, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

Bao Zheng frowned, and looked at the 'Manman' letter suspiciously from time to time.

After he took a sip of tea, he sighed: "The world is so big, there are so many wonders."

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, it's good to have Longyang since ancient times. Of course, women can also have it." After broadening his mind, Gongsun Ce said to Bao Zheng, "I found that Su Yatou seems to be very easy to attract such people. .”

Bao Zheng laughed, "Who doesn't she attract? Everyone in the world loves heroes. In fact, she attracts both good and bad guys, but the bad ones are especially easy to stand out."

When Gongsun Ce thought about it this way, it was the same reason, so he smiled and relieved.

"I'm afraid there will be more in the future." After Su Yuan's ability is known to the world, more and more people will admire her.

Bao Zheng sighed, "On this point, Su Yatou and Zhan Huwei seem to be somewhat similar?"

"Yes, they are all rotten peach blossoms." Gongsun Ce agreed very much, and sympathized with Bai Yutang by the way. It seems that he must spend more time around Su Yuan from now on.

Su Yuan originally planned to have dinner with Sun He, but after hearing that Bai Yutang didn't have dinner either, she couldn't just bring Bai Yutang and Sun He to dinner together, Sun He would definitely feel uncomfortable.So, Su Yuan simply called everyone who could.

I thought that Zhan Zhao, Wang Chao and the others were busy with the interrogation, so few people could rush over.I didn't want to call this, and all the people gathered.Then these meals must not be enough, so I hurriedly sent someone to the restaurant outside to buy some more food supplies.

Before Bai Fu went to buy food, everyone said that there was still something to do later, so they just had a quick bite and it didn't take too much trouble.

When Bai Fu came back, he put steamed mutton, fragrant tofu, Ruyi rolls, gold and silver bird's nest, torn stewed chicken, five-flavored apricot mutton, stir-fried four-season mushrooms... one by one on the table.In addition, there are staple foods such as flat peach rice, Yujing rice, bean balls, sesame balls, and sesame cakes.

Everyone said it was too rich, how could they just 'eat alone' by themselves, and hurriedly asked Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce if they wanted to come too.

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce had already had dinner, but they heard that everyone gathered together, except for the two of them, so they also came to join in the fun.

I wasn't hungry at first, so I planned to eat two bites, but when I saw the flat peach rice cooked with fresh peach meat and rice, I couldn't help but want to have two bites.

The Yujing rice recommended by Su Yuan is also delicious, especially when eaten with the fat and thin braised pork from Yang Erniang's family, it is delicious.

Yujing Rice is cooked with freshly picked white lotus root, lotus seeds and rice.Yang Erniang's braised pork is soft and chewy, sweet and salty.

Put a piece of braised pork with soup in it, and put it in your mouth with Yujing rice. The meat and rice seem to be in love with each other. There is me in you, and you in me, lingering and endless aftertaste.

It is best to eat this rice with a spoon.As soon as Su Yuan scooped up a mouthful of Yujing rice with a bamboo wooden spoon, Bai Yutang quickly put a piece of shiny braised pork with the most uniform fat and thinness on it.

"Oh, I didn't look at it, I didn't look at anything." Chao Chao happened to see this scene, and immediately covered his eyes with his hands.

The rest of the people heard the sound and looked over. Seeing this scene, except for Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce, two elderly elders, everyone booed, even Zhan Zhao was no exception.

Bai Yutang didn't expect that he just picked up some food for Su Yuan, which would attract so many people to make a fuss.

"A group of people who have never seen the world, don't pay attention to them." Bai Yutang asked Su Yuan to eat as usual.

They have never seen the world! ?

Zhan Zhao, Wang Chao and others questioned Bai Yutang with condemning eyes.Bai Yutang didn't take it seriously, and didn't look at any of them coldly.But his appearance made people even more angry.

Su Yuan immediately stuffed the pilaf from the spoon into his mouth.After all, it was Bai Yutang's meal that provoked public outrage. If she didn't eat it well, it would be too disappointing for his hard work.

"Say who hasn't seen the world?" Zhan Zhao finally asked Bai Yutang, and Wang Chao and others immediately agreed.

I think they were all knights who traveled all over the rivers and lakes back then, how could they have never seen the world!

"Whoever makes a fuss is someone who has never seen the world, but to serve her food, there is no need to make a fuss?" After Bai Yutang asked back, his eyes slowly swept over the faces of Zhan Zhao and the others, "Forget it, you haven't even made an appointment , I’m too lazy to get to know you.”

Wang Chao and others: "..." How angry!The fist is hard!I really want to hit someone!

Even the humble and kind Zhan Zhao couldn't bear it now.Is there anyone who shows off like this?Or a derogatory show off!He just scolded them for not having seen the world, and even stabbed them at the end saying that they were not even engaged!

Gongsun Ce smiled gently at Bao Zheng: "It seems that many people in the house need to worry about their marriages."

Bao Zheng had just eaten a mouthful of braised pork, and it was inconvenient for him to talk while chewing on the vegetables, so he nodded in response to Gongsun Ce.

When mentioning marriage, Zhao Hu drooped his head, and muttered in a low voice: "It's so easy to find! Not everyone is like them, women are just like men, and they just match."

"Hahahaha... Boss, fifth master! I heard him say that you are talented and masculine!" Sun He complained.

Zhao Hu stared anxiously at Sun He, he was afraid of being attacked by two masters at the same time.Zhao Hu hurriedly covered his face with his hands, and squatted under the table.

Bai Yutang used to hate people who only said he was good-looking.

The others at the table couldn't help but keep silent, and went to secretly watch Bai Yutang's expression, but saw that Bai Yutang was calmly picking up vegetables and eating, and didn't care about this statement at all.

Su Yuan saw that Bai Yutang was doing very well, so he deliberately gave Bai Yutang a piece of fragrant tofu.

Bai Yutang didn't raise his eyes, but immediately ate the tofu silently.

Zhao Hu was very grateful that he survived the catastrophe, so he hurriedly toasted Su Yuan and Bai Yutang with a glass of wine.

Bai Yuanzi, who had been napping on the window sill, woke up at this moment, and came running meowing, about to climb on Bai Yutang's lap.Bai Yutang carried it into his arms.

Because Su Yuan and Bai Yutang were sitting next to each other, Su Yuan teased Bai Yuanzi by the way.

Bai Yuanzi is a yellow raccoon cat with distinctive patterns.

When Wang Chao saw this scene, he suddenly realized the name Bai Yuanzi.

Wang Chao couldn't help coughing lightly, glanced at Zhan Zhao beside him, and then whispered, "I'm afraid I haven't seen the world again."

Under Wang Chao's gesture, Zhan Zhao also understood, and sighed that he had never seen the world.

Ma Han, Zhao Hu, and Zhang Long next to the two also had an epiphany, feeling that they had never seen the world.

After this meal, other officials in Kaifeng Mansion heard that Wang Chao and the others had dinner again, so they came to ask Wang Chao and others how the meal was.After all, this was Su Yuan's first meal after being exposed as a master.

Although Wang Chao and others were not in the same place, they gave the same answer: they ate a meal that they had never seen before, and they ate very full.

Everyone analyzed the meaning of "fan who has never seen the world", and finally concluded that it must be that Su Judici's martial arts are too high. After she told the number of her martial arts during the meeting, everyone was amazed. , Said that he had never seen the world.

A few days later, the rumors in Tokyo that Su Yuan was the number one expert in the world reached a climax.The legends of his master Wuwangren have also been rediscovered by everyone, adding a new legendary color, making it even more mysterious.

Su Yuan has been avoiding going out these days, just waiting for the limelight to pass.

Bao Zheng has already found out the relationship between the businessmen and officials who were killed by Gui Jianchou in the early years and the Su family.After these people died, Su Jinjing benefited.Either the competitor collapsed, making the Su family's business dominant in a certain aspect.Either there are secret recipes or crafts in the family, and after the person in power has an accident, the secret recipes or crafts are sold to the Su family.As for the four officials who died, they all hindered the cooperation between the Su family and the government in water transportation and gold and silver trading.

"Su Fangming once told me that since Daoist Wangchuan and Su Jinjing met, the Su family's business has grown bigger and bigger. Now it seems that it's not because Daoist Wangchuan knows divination, but because there are other people behind him. Extraordinary means helped him clear the obstacles in the Su family's business."

Su Yuan thought it strange at the beginning. It would be too mysterious to expand the business to such an extent just because of the fortune-telling of Taoist priests. Sure enough, there are other truths behind it.

"From this point of view, Gui Jianchou has a very deep relationship with Su Jinjing, even more than ten years ago. How did he keep in touch with Su Jinjing these years, and he even managed to hide it from his close family members?" Zhan Zhao I find this incredible.

"Disguise, ventriloquist." Su Yuan speculated, "Actually, I have been skeptical about something before. We learned that the Taoist Master Wangchuan is not bad, and he has the virtues of a cultivator.

But Su Fangming once told me one thing, the performance of the Taoist Master Wangchuan in this incident is completely different from the character of the Taoist Wangchuan that we have learned. "

"After the Su family moved into Tokyo City, Su Fangming overheard the conversation between Su Jinjing and Daoist Wang Chuan in the house. He heard Daoist Wang Chuan pointing to Su Jinjing that it would be best to kill me early. If you can't kill me, it will be useful later. I I suspect that the Daoist Wangchuan at that time was not the real Daoist Wangchuan, but Lin Xi or a ghost."

Perhaps after seeing Taoist Wang Chuan and Su Jinjing make friends, Lin Xi also got involved.Compared with Taoist Wangchuan, Lin Xi can benefit the greedy Su Jinjing more, so Su Jinjing and Lin Xi have a deeper acquaintance.The two worked hand in hand and did all kinds of bad things to make money.

And the more bad things people do, the more guilty they are, and they like to believe in things like gods, Buddhas and ghosts. Su Jinjing is so obsessed with faith, it is probably because of this reason.

"Ghost Jianchou rose after the Su family, so at the beginning of its establishment, Gui Jianchou probably relied on the money of the Su family. The growth of the Su family relied on Gui Jianchou helping him eradicate dissidents. The hatchback is mutually beneficial and 'achieves' each other."

Bao Zheng regretted that the ledger was burned, otherwise they would have found more evidence from the Su family's ledger instead of just making such a guess.

"It doesn't matter, when the time comes, you will have all kinds of evidence." Su Yuan said.

Zhan Zhao: "In the past few days, I have asked many friends in the world to inquire about it. They all said that there are not many killers in Gui Jianchou. In the case of Zhengzhou this time, so many killers in Tsing Yi died. After a heavy blow, there should not be many killers left in their youth team.

I also heard some news about the red team. It is said that the red team is a combination of the leaders of the blue and white teams.But the number of people in the red team is so small that it is said that they can be counted on one hand. "

Because of the light ball case and Su Jinjing before, Gui Jianchou took revenge on Kaifeng Mansion.Now that they have been severely injured, and so many masters died all at once, they must be even more unwilling.

"Since they hold grudges so much, they will definitely come again." Bai Yutang looked at Su Yuan, and he had to protect her tightly in the days to come.

After the inspection of the dynasty, Bao Zheng was sent back to life.

Seeing that Su Yuan was there, he immediately said: "You don't know how evil the rumors outside are, saying that Miss Su is brave, shocked by lightning, unparalleled in intelligence, the world's number one genius in both civil and martial arts, she can win the world if she gets it. "

"Fart! I don't even know what 'manman' is. Where did the literary talent come from?" This rumor must not be tolerated!

Su Yuan asked where the rumors were, and went straight to question her with a big knife on her back. If she had a reputation, it was good. When ordinary people saw her back with a big knife, they would be so frightened that they would confess everything honestly.

Su Yuan then rushed to Wazi's Rongchangfang, which was the source of the rumors.Liu Ruyi, who had met Zhao Hu and had been interested in Bai Yutang, was the most likely suspect.

Liu Ruyi was a little surprised to see Su Yuan suddenly appear.She glanced at the knife on Su Yuan's back fearfully, but still stood in front of Su Yuan gracefully, smiling gently and decently.

"I don't know what is Su Judici's sudden visit to Rongchangfang today?"

"Fuck you." Su Yuan said without hesitation.

Then came Bai Yutang: "..."
