"This bastard is getting bolder and bolder." Jiang Lvzhong said "resentfully" with a foul breath.

"Don't you have the guts to kill your superior?" Jin Gong with a sword laughed.

"It's a pity that it's cheaper Yang Yan, you don't know, that kid's aptitude is"

Wei Yuan glanced at Jiang Lvzhong, and interrupted: "You are the only one who talks too much."

Jiang Luzhong immediately shut up.

The golden gong with the sword raised his brows, and asked: "How about the qualifications, what's the rating, A?"

Jiang Lvzhong deliberately smiled, but did not answer, with an expression of "you are too naive", maliciously fishing.

Not A? Is it on the top of the armor? With the golden gong of the sword, he turned his head violently and stared straight at Wei Yuan: "Duke Wei?"

Wei Yuan drank tea without saying a word.

Such a gesture made Jin Luo even more curious, and he started to associate it with it.

If you have a Grade A qualification, you can't hide it from me. Is it really a top grade? Impossible, the aptitude of the first class has not passed for decades, but their attitude just proves this point? If so, I have no reason not to fight for Tonggong Xu Qi'an.

Seeing Wei Gong's meaning, the concealment is probably to avoid disputes between Jin Luo over the robbery. Well, I can secretly plan to win people over. Don't young people value money and women?

The paralyzed Yang Yan took the initiative to speak, and changed the subject: "Father, what's your majesty's attitude?"

Wei Yuan rubbed his brows and sighed: "Find out Henghui's whereabouts as soon as possible. During the Beijing inspection period, even I can't stand the mass impeachment."

The four golden gongs showed serious expressions, and Wei Gong was forced to say this, which showed that the situation was very serious.

It seems to be normal, let's not say that Wei Yuan is in charge of beating people as an eunuch, and has a bad relationship with the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty. Just because the murderer can rampantly kill people in the inner city and retreat calmly is enough to cause panic among all the officials.

"I'll wait and do my best."

Wei Yuan nodded: "Don't just talk about it, there have been rumors in the court recently, saying that the gold gongs in the yamen are useless, and the investigation and work all rely on a single gong."

The adoptive father paid more and more attention to Xu Qi'an. Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou looked at each other and saw their thoughts.

This matter must be done well, and Heng Hui will be caught as soon as possible. Fortunately, Xu Qi'an couldn't do this kind of errand, so he didn't worry about the little Tonggong jumping out to grab the credit again.

Xu Qi'an brought the Sangbo case team to the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of War, showed the gold medal, and after passing it on to others, he brought three silver gongs, Chu Caiwei and Li Yuchun, and Lu Qing, the chief arrester of the six gates, into the Minister's Mansion.

The gate and the surrounding walls of Shangshu Mansion were all destroyed, as if demolition was being carried out, which was shocking.

"Shang Shu's mansion is really magnificent." After entering the mansion, Lu Qing sighed with emotion in a low voice.

"This house should cost ten thousand taels of silver." Li Yuchun guessed.

The leading servant sneered upon hearing this, ten thousand taels of silver? A bumpkin who has never seen the world, ten thousand taels of silver also wants to buy our Shangshufu.

Rough warrior.

Xu Qi'an kicked him on the buttocks, and cursed: "Lead the way well, you dog slave."

The servant lowered his head and hastily quickened his pace.

Speaking of the three words "dog slave", Xu Qi'an thought of the little queen of the nightclub, wondering if she provoked Princess Huaiqing today, and then she was hanged and beaten by the latter.

In the living room, Xu Qi'an saw Zhang Feng, Minister of the Ministry of War, a calm and serious man with gray hair and a goatee.

Sitting there silently, revealing the majesty of being in a high position for a long time.

"I've met Master Shangshu." Xu Qi'an cupped his fists.

Zhang Feng nodded lightly: "I heard from the father-in-law in the palace that Mr. Xu handles the case very quickly and has extraordinary abilities. Not only has the Sangbo case progressed rapidly, but he has also found out the real culprit in the Pingyuanbo Miemen case."

"Master Shangshu is too good." Xu Qi'an felt that there was something in the other party's words.

"You want to ask me what is the relationship between this officer and that murderer, and he was hunted for revenge late at night by the other party?" Zhang Shangshu said.

"Exactly." Xu Qi'an didn't expect how the other party would cooperate.

Zhang Shangshu glanced at Xu Qi'an without emotion, suddenly spoke harshly, slapped the table and shouted angrily: "I also want to know, I want to know more about the time since Uncle Pingyuan's murder, why the watchman hasn't been caught yet?" perpetrator.

"The officer also wants to know why the watchmen repeatedly let the gangsters commit the crime."

As soon as he came up, he dismounted me and threatened me. Xu Qi'an had no choice but to cup his fists again and said, "Lord Shangshu, calm down."

Zhang Shangshu restrained his expression and sighed: "Although I didn't go to court today, I also know the follow-up of last night's situation. I didn't expect that the five high-quality warriors would fight together and still fail to win the opponent. Instead, the four golden gongs were injured.

"The guard is loyal to the imperial court, and I naturally see it. Unfortunately, the prisoner is seriously ill and unable to take action, which makes us worry and frightened, and makes you exhausted."

His expression has the seriousness of a superior, but his tone is quite gentle, and he is considerate of his subordinates, which makes people feel good for no reason.

Xu Qi'an actually had a slight liking for the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, but soon he came back and said that he would give me a big blow first, and the next moment his attitude reversed, gaining sympathy and sympathy, and making people unknowingly feel like being recognized. thanks.

It is indeed not easy for someone who can play politics to reach the second rank.

Xu Qi'an coughed, cleared his throat, and tentatively said: "The real culprit of Uncle Pingyuan's extermination case is the same person who attacked the Shangshu Mansion last night.

"He is a monk from Qinglong Temple, and his dharma name is Henghui."

"Heng Hui?" Minister of the Ministry of War frowned: "I don't know this person, why did you attack my mansion at night, since you are a monk from Qinglong Temple, why didn't Master Xu come to the mansion instead of looking for someone from Qinglong Temple?" .”

"A monk in Henghui District is naturally not worthy of Master Shangshu's acquaintance. However, he eloped with a female pilgrim more than a year ago, and has not been heard from since. The female pilgrim is the princess of Pingyang."

"Princess Pingyang?" Zhang Feng was shocked, as if he couldn't believe it, "Princess Pingyang actually eloped with someone."

Xu Qi'an has been observing him, trying to analyze the other party's real thoughts through micro-expressions, but failed.

There is no flaw at all.

After asking a few more questions, Xu Qi'an decided to change his target, "Is Master Zhang Yi here?"

Zhang Feng sent someone to invite him, and after a while, Zhang Yi, with dark circles under his eyes and a very bad complexion, came to the reception hall.

Your dark circles can compete with Song Qing. Xu Qi'an asked: "Young Master Zhang, do you know a monk named Heng Hui?"

"I don't know." Zhang Yi shook his head.

"Then do you know Hengqing?"

"do not know."

"Do you know Hengyuan?"

"do not know."

"Do you know Pingyang?"

"I don't know." After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he suddenly realized: "Princess Pingyang? Of course I know him."

It was completely perfunctory Xu Qi'an nodded and smiled, "I'm done asking, thank you Zhang Shangshu and Mr. Zhang for your cooperation."

Leaving Shangshu Mansion, Xu Qi'an turned his head and said: "In the process of questioning just now, which words are true and which words are false?"

Chu Caiwei with an oval face rolled her eyes, "Not a word of truth."

Xu Qi'an was taken aback: "Who are you talking about?"

Chu Caiwei curled her lips, "Both father and son, the last sentence is true. The guy with kidney deficiency said he knew Princess Pingyang."

I can understand Zhang Feng talking nonsense with his eyes open, but why is Zhang Yi also lying? Then there is only one possibility, Zhang Yi participated in the elopement of Princess Henghui and Princess Pingyang.

Just imagine, if Zhang Yi is an ignorant person, then Zhang Feng has no reason to disclose this confidential matter to his son. Sometimes ignorance is the best protection, and Zhang Yi's image as a master of time management is obviously not very reliable , if I were Zhang Shangshu, I would never mention the case of possible extermination to an unreliable person, even if he is my son.

What's interesting is that when Henghui killed Uncle Pingyuan's son-in-law that night, he said: I'm here for revenge.

"This case is becoming more and more confusing and interesting. I feel that it is close to the truth. Well, the truth about the elopement case of Princess Henghui and Princess Pingyang. The Sangbo case can only continue to be investigated after the two of them are clarified. "Xu Qi'an cheered up all of a sudden.

After a busy day, Xu Qi'an bid farewell to Chu Caiwei and Lu Qing, and after the two left, Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao walked out of the side hall tacitly.

Xu Qi'an felt that he needed to relax and relieve his mental pressure after intensive investigations for many days.

Anyway, they are all sleeping, sleeping at home and sleeping on the floating incense bed, there is not much difference. In addition, Fu Xiang sent people to send letters many times, saying that he missed him very much and wanted to invite him to Yingmei Xiaoge for tea.

In this case, Xu Qi'an thought, let's make an appointment.

At this time, it was still dark, and the yamen was at the peak of the casual value, but there were not many customers in Jiaofangsi, and there were not many people in the alley.

"I'm planning to go to sleep and clean up the lady." Song Tingfeng said.

"It's not worthwhile to sleep well, it's a bit high." Xu Qi'an suggested sincerely.

Dafeng's Qing Dynasty people don't really sell their art but not their bodies. The Qing Dynasty people are more like a hype. There are not only adult women in Jiaofang Division, but also many girls. These girls have been taught piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since they were young, and they have been cultivated to be versatile.

Slowly cultivated and grown up, those with average beauty and skills will act as low-level dancers and singers. With good looks and talents, he is a nobleman.

When the reputation of Qing Guanren has accumulated to a certain level, there will be an auction that will inspire men's hearts.

"It's not worth it." Xu Qi'an persuaded.

"I have already said that a man like me is not suitable for marrying a wife and having children, and there is no point in saving money." Song Tingfeng was very calm.

Xu Qi'an suspected that this guy had a fear of marriage.

"I want to marry a wife." Zhu Guangxiao said concisely.

But the price of playing tea in the Fuxiang courtyard is too high, and the oiran is Xu Qi'an's good friend, so he stays in Meiying Xiaoge and can only sleep with the maid.

Guangxiao is a rich man now, and wants to sleep with a more beautiful woman.

The three parted ways, and Xu Qi'an entered Yingmei Xiaoge.
