Back in the room, Chen Xianhu tilted his head and leaned on Chun Qing's shoulder.

"Shu Tan, it's a pity that it wasn't the doggy Wen Weiwu who beat him, otherwise he would be comfortable without drinking... Ha! If anyone can kill that doggy Cao Gang leader, I, Chen Xianhu, will recognize him as Dage!"

This is already drunk, talking nonsense.

But don't forget to toast and drink.

"Why are you looking at me? Keep playing music, keep dancing, haven't had enough drink..."

This drink, is drunk to the point of being drunk.

"Mr. Chen never stays overnight. The four daughters of Chunqing are all prostitutes. It is inconvenient to have any contact with Mr. Chen's house. I can only trouble the real person to send Mr. Chen back to the mansion."

Ever since.

The moonlight was as bright as clear frost, Xu Nian left Yanliuhe with Chen Xianhu who seemed to have fallen into a wine vat on his back.

Although General Chen's Mansion is not as good as Zhen Guo Gong's Mansion, it is also a first-class military general's mansion, and it is not difficult to find the address given by Chun Qing.

There are two Guardian Stone Lions on the left and right, and the plaques hanging on them are just the word "Chen Fu".

Although it has the style of a high wall and a gate to support it, it seems a bit too simple as the face of a mansion of a top honorable nobleman in Dayan.

thump thump——

Knocking on the copper ring on the gate, soon the gate opened a gap for one or two people to pass through. A servant leaned out, first bowed slightly to Xu Nian as a salute, and then asked questions.

"May I ask why you are knocking on the door?"

Xu Nian pointed to the drunk man on his back, and said with a smile: "Drink and have fun with Mr. Chen, he is too strong to drink, and he is drunk."

The servants of Chen's mansion recognized Chen Xianhu by the moonlight, and immediately turned around to greet a companion, and together they helped the big Young Master in his mansion off Xu Nian's body, and soon another steward took three steps and ran away in two steps come over.

"My lord sent someone to come to the mansion to let us know, so we went to pick up the Young Master back, and you still have to trouble your lord to send the Young Master back. It's really a dereliction of duty for us servants."

"The night is getting dark, if you don't dislike it, why don't you rest at the mansion for one night?"

"Tomorrow when Young Master sobers up, he can have another drink with the young master."

Xu Nian shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness."

The butler didn't force it, but just ordered the servants in the house to quickly get on the carriage, arched his cupped hands and said with a smile: "Then please allow us to take you back to the house, my lord, otherwise we servants will fail to take good care of Young Master and lose It is used for hospitality, but it is useless.”

When it was all said to this point, Xu Nian didn't refuse any more, and got into the carriage of General Chen's mansion.

"Excuse me, my lord, where is the residence?"

"I'm not a son of the family, just send me to Baihuai Hall on Chonglin Street."

The Chen family groom who drove the car did not neglect Xu Nian because he was not the son of any family, nor did he ask more questions because the destination was Baihuai Hall, but he drove steadily and dutifully, and took Xu Nian to Baihuai Hall. At the closed gate of Huai Hall.

After confirming that this place was correct, the groom of the Chen family said goodbye and drove back.

Xu Nian didn't knock on the closed door of Baihuai Hall, but went around to the back door and knocked twice. After a while, the girl with braids pushed the door open, her delicate nose twitching twice.

"Brother Xu, how much wine have you drunk?"

Xu Nian walked into the backyard of Baihuai Hall, where no one was allowed to enter, and said with a wry smile, "I only had two cups. It was Mr. Chen who was so drunk that I carried him back, reeking of alcohol."

"Who is that person? His surname is Chen and he is so noble, so it can't be Chen Xianhu?"

Zhang Tiantian simply said this casually because Chen Xianhu had received a gift from the Holy Master and was very famous in the capital these days.

Coincidentally, I guessed right.

Xu Nian nodded slightly.

"Is it really Chen Xianhu? Brother Xu, you can still know him, it's really hidden."

"I met by chance on the way to Beijing, and we met once."

"He invited you to drink just by meeting? This is even more extraordinary, it proves that Brother Xu, you are very charming!"

Zhang Tiantian gave a thumbs up, then slapped his head in annoyance.

"What a shame, I wish I had known he was Chen Xianhu."

"You have something to do with him?"

"This is not a new Hidden Dragon Ranking compiled by Pavilion of Celestial Secrets. It said it was to select one hundred young talents under the age of thirty. I was only ranked forty-nine, but he was eleventh. I want to try these three. More than ten people are a big difference."

Xu Nian said: "He is already a seventh-level martial artist."

Zhang Tiantian, an eighth-level martial artist, twirled his fist and snorted unconvincingly: "So what if I'm first rank? I can use poison, can he?"

"But then again, why is your name not on the Hidden Dragon List, Brother Xu?"

Xu Nian thought for a while and said with a smile: "I am a nobody. Most people in the Pavilion of Celestial Secrets don't know that there is a person like me."

"That's right. Although the Pavilion of Celestial Secrets is called Celestial Secrets, how can it be possible that everyone knows everything? It's just that they are better informed." Zhang Tiantian nodded with deep understanding, "Brother Xu, you are not even on the list, so I am just Ranked forty-nine, it shows that the gold content of this Qianlong list is not very good!"

Xu Nian just smiled and made no comment.

"Brother Xu, since you know Chen Xianhu, have you asked him to help you find those medicinal herbs?"

"I forgot about it this time. I'll tell him next time."

To be precise, Chen Xianhu kept drinking wine and soon became drunk, and even staged a drunken beating of Xie Qiongwen.

Xu Nian didn't find the right opportunity to speak.

the next day.

Zhang Tiantian was greedy for tofu pudding, so he asked Xu Nian to take a snack box and go out. After listening to the book, when he went to Anqing Street, the shed of the tofu stall was still far away, but the mother and daughter selling tofu pudding were nowhere to be seen.

Didn't you go out to the stall?

Xu Nian asked other stall owners around and found out that He Xiaoyu's family did not sell tofu at the stall yesterday.

This is strange.

In the past, the tofu stall was open rain or shine, and He Xiaoyu would never slack off. Why did he not go out to the stall despite the clear skies these past two days?

Someone who knew the inside story shook his head and sighed.

"Something happened to the He family."

"The man from my mother's family seems to be a hard-working man. He was just recovering from his injury a few days ago, so he wanted to work and earn money. He is a skilled gardener, but for a while he couldn't find any house that was in need of help. People, thinking that they would be strong enough at last, went to work as part-time workers at the ferry in Qianharu County, as porters carrying goods for others."

"I never thought that if I left, I would fall into the river and be gone!"

Hao Duan Duan disappeared like this. Others around him were regretful and surprised, and asked what was going on, but the insider couldn't explain clearly.

"Ask me why I don't have it? How did I know? Maybe my foot slipped while carrying the goods."

"Some people say that they had unclean hands and were caught taking the owner's goods. They jumped into the river to escape, but the water was not strong enough and they drowned instead."

"But I don't really believe this random speculation. I have seen that man from the He family. How could such an honest man take the goods from his employer? There must be something wrong..."

Xu Nian's pupils suddenly shrank when he heard this, remembering what Chen Xianhu said while drunk yesterday.

"How many people died at the ferry in Qianchun County yesterday..."

Among these people.

It turns out there is He Xiaoyu’s father?

The snack boxes were empty, the tofu stalls were empty.

Even Xu Nian seemed to have an empty space in his heart, and it seemed that he needed to do something to fill it up.

In Chen Xianhu's drunken words, he mentioned the head of the Cao Gang in Qianchun County.

It seems to be called...

Wen Weiwu?
