The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Chu Yunxi suddenly had an idea. "No, they will try every possible way to avoid the police's pursuit and find other ways to ship the goods."

"That's right. So, just because these guys didn't take action this time doesn't mean they won't take action next time, or that they didn't take action in other places. We just may not know about it."

Xiao Mubei seemed to understand, "What police? What place..."

"Your Majesty, let the brothers work harder and mobilize some other forces to conduct a secret investigation in the capital in the next two days. Focus on the deaths of young people in the family. If you find any, don't make it public. Ambush in secret and wait for them. If we cast a net in many places, we will definitely get something."

Chu Yunxi looked outside the door. This time, she would make sure that these people had nowhere to escape.

On that day, Xiao Mubei borrowed a thousand imperial guards from Emperor Sui Ming and sent them to patrol various parts of the capital. He simply told the outside world that there was a bandit roaming around the capital recently, so the security had been stepped up.

Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Emperor Sui Ming was reviewing memorials when Eunuch Baochan came to report that the Director of the Imperial Observatory, Zheng Yuan Rubai, wanted to see him.

Emperor Sui Ming put down his pen and said, "Transmit it."

Yuan Rubai looked about forty, but was actually over fifty, well-maintained. As soon as he came in, he immediately saluted Emperor Sui Ming, "Your Majesty!"

"Stand up, my dear, what do you want to see me for?"

Yuan Rubai said: "I observed the sky at night and found something strange in the north. The North Star flickered and there was a faint red light flashing. I am afraid it is a bad omen."

Emperor Sui Ming felt nervous, "According to your observation, what will happen?"

"Something sinister may happen in the capital. If not handled properly, the palace may be turned upside down."

Emperor Sui Ming was shocked, "In the palace?"

Yuan Rubai's face was heavy. "This is what my hexagram indicates. Your Majesty can ask someone else to find out if anything unusual has happened in the capital city right now."

"Something unusual." Emperor Sui Ming muttered, frowning in thought. Suddenly, he slapped the table and said, "Quickly summon Prince Dingbei to the palace."

Xiao Mubei had just arranged the patrol when he received an imperial decree asking him to enter the palace. He hurriedly explained the matter to Chu Yunxi and left with Eunuch Baochan.

Chu Yunxi asked curiously, "Didn't the prince just go to see His Majesty and borrow the Imperial Guards? Why was he called to the palace again?"

Bai Yu didn't know, no one knew. Chu Yunxi was just curious and didn't intend to know the answer. Seeing Wen Rulan was about to leave, she hurriedly said, "Brother, don't rush back. Go somewhere with me."

Wen Rulan asked, "Do you still want to renovate Ruyun Building?"

"Just leave it to the workers." Chu Yunxi dragged him out. She was dressed in men's clothes today. "Let's go to a place you men like to go."

"A brothel?"

Wen Rulan was not stupid. Seeing Chu Yunxi's outfit, what else could he not understand? It just so happened that he had never been to this brothel in the capital, so he just went with the flow.

Chu Yunxi went straight to Zui Chunfeng. She remembered Luo said that the person who went to Lou San every day was Zui Chunfeng.

This was her second time to Zui Chunfeng. This time, she took Wen Rulan to the private room on the second floor with ease and ordered tea and snacks.

Wen Rulan followed her as a background without saying a word until the servant left. He then said, "You are very skilled at this. It seems that you are living a very comfortable life in the capital."

"No, no, it's all work-related." Chu Yunxi said calmly, "From here, you can see everything on the first floor clearly. Since Floor 3 is taking drugs here, there must be something fishy going on."

"Look for drug dealers," Wen Rulan's eyes had already scanned the downstairs, "This place is full of good and bad people. Drug dealers are always hiding, so they probably won't blatantly sell drugs on the first floor, but we can't rule out the possibility of using some shady means."

"for example?"

"Like, there."

Chu Yunxi followed Wen Rulan's gaze and saw a servant carrying a tray and serving tea to a table. The guests at the table were two young men, who were obviously children of wealthy families. At the moment, their eyes were almost fixed on the girl on the stage, and they didn't even notice the servant coming to serve tea.

The servant took the old kettle back and put the new kettle over. At the same time, he flicked his wrist lightly. Chu Yunxi's eyesight was not good enough to see it clearly, but Wen Rulan saw it clearly. A small pill was flicked into the teacup of one of the guests!

"Did he do anything?" Chu Yunxi excitedly grabbed Wen Rulan's wrist.

Wen Rulan nodded, "Yes, that person's cup has been drugged."

"It's so abominable. In broad daylight, they actually hurt people like this. Brother, what should we do?"

"That little pill can't prove anything now, and it won't make people addicted. At most, it will make people more excited, eager to do something, and stay for another night. If you want to reach the level of Lou San, you probably don't need those beauties. As long as you have the medicine, you can make them stay for the whole night. To stay, you need money. This is how they are drained of their wealth and ruined their bodies."

Wen Rulan's inference was reasonable, but it was difficult to find evidence to prove these people's crimes. Now Chu Yunxi knew that there were indeed drugs here, and if they didn't find a way to ban them, things like what happened to Lou San and Zhang Xiucai would continue to happen.

"Do you want to go upstairs and take a look?" Wen Rulan found Chu Yunxi's angry look a little funny. This girl was still the same as before, unable to bear to see criminals run rampant.

Chu Yunxi had never been to the third floor before, so she nodded immediately when she heard that. It was already dark outside. Wen Rulan avoided other people and brought her to a secluded corner on the second floor. After looking around to see that there was no one around, she pushed open the window next to her, put her arms around Chu Yunxi's slender waist, and with a tiptoe, the two of them had reached the rooftop.

Chu Yunxi almost fell down, but Wen Rulan immediately supported her steadily, helped her squat down, and slowly lifted a tile from the roof.

Chu Yunxi looked down and saw a man lying on the bed. His eyes were empty, a satisfied smile on his face, and his hands were waving unconsciously. It looked extremely weird. There was no one else in the room except him.

"He...took medicine?"

Wen Rulan nodded, put down the tile, and moved to another room. Here, a woman was desperately trying to get a man to drink. The woman's clothes were so few that it was almost the same as if she were not wearing any. The man was obviously drunk and had hallucinations. The woman was clearly beside him, but he stretched out his hands desperately, grabbing handfuls of the air. The woman beside him laughed like a silver bell.

It turns out that the third floor is where drugs are traded. It is so blatant. No wonder Zui Chunfeng's business is so good and it is the best brothel in Beijing. It turns out that there is such a shady deal inside.
