Daming prepares the emperor

The night was dark and windy, and the smell of fresh pine branches wafted through the air.

After the snow on the ground melted into ice, it was frozen naked, reflecting silvery spots under the moonlight.

The road outside Beizhen Fusi is wide and deserted, no one will pass by here, basically those who can pass here no longer regard themselves as human beings.

A scream suddenly sounded in the dark night, breaking the silence.The jackdaw on the tree was frightened, screamed, flapped its wings and flew away, the snow on the branches fell all at once due to its movements, and fell in front of the two Jinyiwei.

The fat one took a look, crushed the snow with his feet and paved it flat, didn't want to do anything, it was purely boring, and continued to take a nap with his arms folded after finishing the job.

That scream seemed to be a switch, and it continued continuously and endlessly. Fat Jin Yiwei finally found that he could not fall asleep with this background sound at all. Picking up his head, he squatted down and smoked a dry cigarette.

"Boss, what is this person's background, he is too cruel."

"How do I know." The other Jin Yiwei was an old acquaintance Han Baihu, and he felt unlucky, "Why do you say these crap things always happen to me?"

"Uh...boss, it means that you are in the emperor's heart."

"May I let you?"

"Forget it then." Fat Jin Yiwei didn't dare to say anything more.

The outside of the house became quiet again, only screams echoed intermittently in the night, and after a while, the sound suddenly disappeared completely, until the sound of splashing water came from inside, and the moans came back again, sometimes mixed with weak walking and scolding, very scary.

"It's not over yet?" Fat Jin Yiwei rubbed his neck, squatting instead of sitting, "It's been an hour, what's it like inside, it's so bloody, it won't be easy to wash after the trial."

Han Baihu said: "I don't know where the eunuch came from, he is more ruthless than our people. Listen to the movement, my old Fan who is in charge of the torture room is not as good as him, I should learn from him."

"Didn't the Xiong family immediately become relatives of the emperor? He arrested people from the Xiong family..."

Han Baihu said: "Looking at this posture, the Xiong family's problem may be serious."

"You will be a concubine when you grow up." Jin Yiwei said, "If the pillow blows, we can bear it? And he is still a eunuch, working in the palace, looking down and not seeing him, I really dare not ask me."

"Then you should respect him more." Han Baihu said lightly.

"Why?" Jin Yiwei was stunned, "Eunuch Wei doesn't seem to be dealing with him!"

"If you don't deal with it, you still send it yourself. Is there no reason? After this test, he is a knife. You have to respect it if you don't respect it. Even if he cuts himself one day, don't you care about the previous scenery? ?”

Jin Yiwei thought for a while: "Boss, I'll listen to you."

"I don't understand anything at first glance, kid." Han Baihu got up and kicked his ass, "Get up, come in with me and have a look, don't let him kill everyone."

It is impossible to say that Han Baihu is not happy with this job. Although he has not been promoted yet, he can feel that his status in the Zhenfu Division has been greatly improved. Even Wu Ce is more polite when talking to him. Jin Yiwei is the royal eagle dog, the eagle dog is released to eat carrion and scare people, most of the troubles are both opportunities and dangers.

Wealth and wealth are sought in insurance, nothing more than this.

Yang Gaomeng was wiping the blood from his hands. The cotton handkerchief was dyed red, and he carefully stuffed it into his sleeves. When he saw the two Han Baihus who came in, he had a friendly smile on his face. If it wasn't for the occasion, the smell would be No, it really makes people feel like spring breeze.

"Eunuch Yang, did you find out anything?"

Yang Gaomeng shook his head: "They don't know anything."

"Miss Xiong's personal maid can't do it either?"

"No way." Yang Gaomeng replied in a good voice, "I shouldn't let her know about such a big matter. The only thing that is certain is that Mrs. Xiong is not pregnant and is innocent."

Han Baihu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say. The sky will finally fall."

Another Jin Yiwei asked: "A girl who is going to get married has no problems with herself and her natal family. What else can she do?"

Yang Gaomeng pondered for a moment: "You said, is it possible that she has already promised someone else?"

"Accepted to the family?" Han Baihu repeated his words, thinking carefully, "Elder-in-law said that in order to enter the palace, the Xiong family concealed the news and silenced the husband's family."

"No, you won't be so flustered if you shut up. Xiong's family is beautiful, and her brother is not an ordinary person. The person she can marry is either rich or noble. Just because her husband is still alive, he can't die for a while, and he may jump out at any time. They It was sleepless day and night."

Well, this is not much better than entering the palace while pregnant.

Han Baihu sweated on his brow, licked his lips, didn't know what to say, looked at Yang Gaomeng and waited for him to continue.

Yang Gaomeng understood that he was waiting, so he didn't hide it, and said calmly: "Right now we can only check outside."

"Check outside." Han Baihu repeated it, and understood, "Go check Zhang Laishi?"

Fat Jin Yiwei was taken aback, what about the people of the Xiong family, he thought, was always irrelevant, but they had to do the investigation!This is Jin Yiwei's job!

"This is not good, who is responsible?" He asked hastily.

Han Baihu glared at him: "Shut up, it's not for you to talk."

"I'm coming!" Yang Gaomeng said, "To tell you the truth, my life and wealth are all in this case. If found out, I will live, but if not found out, I will die. No matter who I offend, I can bear it, and I will never implicate everyone."

Han Baihu and his subordinates looked at each other in blank dismay: "Since this is the case, we have nothing to say, but follow the orders of the father-in-law."

---

The business of the Qinhuai River will not stop even in winter.

When the blue waves were frozen, someone had to spend a lot of money to break them open, put them on a painting boat, and put a stove in the painting boat for the gentlemen to have fun.

Neon colored flags, light gauze warm sleeves, dim lights, the bustle and bustle is like a fairyland on earth, where dudes spend a lot of money, and the gold and silver in the flowing water disappear from here, it can be called the world's first gold selling cave.

Amidst the sound of silk and bamboo and the sound of drinking orders, Han Baihu led his people to the shadow of the river bank with Yang Gaomeng.

"Which ship is Zhang Laishi on?"

Someone pointed.

Han Baihu looked at Yang Gaomeng: "Shall we find a boat to row there?"

Yang Gaomeng said, "Is there someone from us?"

Han Baihu smiled confidently: "At least [-]% of the restaurants in the capital have our staff."

"Then lean over and have a look."

Han Baihu gave the order, and not long after, a Gui Gong came and saluted them respectfully, and led them to a painting boat that was neither outstanding nor underestimated. After taking off the pipa and zither, they all went back into the house without making any sound, as if they didn't exist.

The two servants picked up the oars, and the boat galloped quickly to the middle of the river. After anchoring for a while, it floated towards Zhang Laishi's boat without leaving a trace.

"I'm afraid we can't torture directly." Han Baihu wondered, "The Holy Majesty didn't order it, and there was no explanation for such a thing to spread."

Yang Gaomeng said: "Find a girl to get him drunk, give him medicine, and try the routine first."

"Okay." Han Baihu agreed, "I'll go and order."

Soon, he selected one from the girls in the room. This girl was not very beautiful, but she had a charming temperament, especially her eyes, which seemed to be hazy when looking at people, which made people feel aroused. She is affectionate, subconsciously feels sorry for her, and has no bad intentions.

"Okay." Yang Gaomeng praised Han Baihu's gaze, "That's her, let her go by finding a reason."

This girl got on Zhang Laishi's boat and claimed that she was introduced by someone else to accompany her for drinks. Zhang Laishi was often flattered by others, so she didn't seem to suspect anything. Under the influence of drugs and alcohol, she soon fell to the ground On the table, he was helped by everyone to the bed in the room to lie down and rest.

Relying on Jin Yiwei's skills, Han Baihu led Yang Gaomeng to avoid the crowd and came to the room.

The girl said: "My lord, he is already drunk."

Han Baihu hummed, pushed Zhang Laishi, Zhang Laishi waved his hand, muttered a few times, turned over and wrapped himself in the quilt tightly.

"He comes here often?" Yang Gaomeng asked.

The girl was well-informed, recognized him as an eunuch, lowered her head and whispered: "My lord, Zhang Dushi has been sleeping here for half a month, and has never been home. Every day, he invites different people to accompany him, spending a lot of money , spent a lot of money on free tipping. Everyone said that he probably made a fortune."

Yang Gaomeng looked at Han Baihu.

Han Baihu frowned and said: "No one has sent him money, and his family's property is not much."

Yang Gaomeng thought for a while: "Ask first, and check later."

The girl understood, lying on the side of the bed, close to Zhang Laishi's ear: "My lord, my lord, wake up, someone is looking for you."

"...Who, what?"

"Someone came to you and said there was something wrong."

"...Tell him to go back and talk about it tomorrow." Zhang Laishi said impatiently.

Han Baihu made a little noise by the door, pretending that someone came in, and took a few steps by the way, appearing real.

"My lord, it's urgent, don't say no, please see me."

Zhang Laishi wanted to open his eyes to see who it was, but he found that his eyelids were as heavy as an iron lock. Let him talk."

Han Baihu lit a cigarette and held it in his hand, asked Zhang Laishi to smoke a few puffs before putting it out, and said in a low voice: "My lord, the palace knows about the matter of the Xiong family."

The voice fell, and the room was deadly quiet.

The girl lowered her head, staring at her feet, her shoulders trembled slightly, and her breathing slowed down to the extreme.

For a long time, Han Baihu even began to think that he hadn't heard clearly, and was about to say it again, when he suddenly saw Zhang Laishi trembling as if he had been beaten by someone, and after taking a few breaths, he began to sob and cry.

It's the kind of drunken crying, vague and strange, which often makes people find it funny-there are often drunk people hugging the pillars on the road, shouting things like begging for help, saying that they can't live together in this life, Only die together.

But the people in the room couldn't laugh, not only couldn't laugh, but they all looked more serious than the other.

Han Baihu and Yang Gaomeng looked at each other, and asked tentatively, "My lord, what should we do now?"

"What else... what else can I do? Can I escape! I'm dead! I'm dead!" Zhang Laishi wriggled on the bed, like a bug that couldn't turn into a butterfly. Let me go, ma'am, take, take the family away... I am guilty! I am guilty... Your Majesty's mercy, Your Majesty's mercy..."

Although these sentences are vague and broken, the meaning expressed could not be clearer.It wasn't until this time that Han Baihu really felt relieved. Since there was really a problem with the marriage, he didn't have to worry about the Xiong family's revenge, and he had nothing to fear.

Letting go of the burden in his heart, his eyes turned from calm to excited, looking at Zhang Laishi, as if he was looking at a big piece of gold, or the merits of walking.

On the other hand, Yang Gaomeng is the same, his performance is more than worse, he can't wait to eat Zhang Laishi and spit it out in Fengtian Hall.

But Yang Gaomeng's life and death have been linked to this case, he was more restrained than Han Baihu, and after trying to calm down, he bent down: "The Holy Majesty promised to be merciful. If you tell who the main messenger is, your family will not be punished. "

Zhang Laishi only said: "Father, mother, run quickly."

"Who did Xiong give it to?" Yang Gaomeng was not discouraged, and changed the question, "Zhang Laishi, tell the truth, and the sage will forgive your parents."

"Xiong's...Xiong's has long been promised to the Yang family, promised to Yang Xisheng..."

In the blink of an eye, Yang Gaomeng immediately looked up at Han Baihu, who was also looking at him, and the two met their gazes.
