White clothes bind me [cat and mouse]
Chapter 23
Gu Hongqing hid in hiding for a long time, went through a lot of pursuit, and needed to wash and tidy up, so Zhan Zhao followed Bai Yutang to the dungeon, and met Qinniang first.
Before, Qinniang came to her door and said that she wanted to exchange news to protect her safety. Zhan Zhao did it and sent Qinniang to the safest place in Kaifeng Mansion, but Qinniang was very dissatisfied and didn't want to pass the news Hand it over, but I don't know why, but I suddenly wanted to say it today.
But Qinniang wanted to see Bai Yutang, so Zhan Zhao took Bai Yutang to the dungeon of Kaifeng Mansion.
Although it is the territory of Kaifeng Mansion, the atmosphere of this dungeon is gloomy, with a musty and cold smell, which is incompatible with Bai Yutang's white clothes.
Thinking of Bai Yutang's obsession with cleanliness, Zhan Zhao suddenly regretted it for some reason, but he knew that Bai Yutang was not a person who needed to be taken care of by others, so he didn't say anything, but ordered the yamen servants in front to illuminate the road more brightly.
Probably looking at Qinniang, a woman. The cell Zhao Hu arranged was a place where the sun could be seen and the room was relatively clean. When Qinniang looked over with joy, the first thing she saw was Zhan Zhao's face. It just collapsed.
"So it's Mr. Zhan."
Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "I don't know if the girl is still used to being here?"
Qin Niang rolled her eyes, if it were you, would you be able to get used to it?What about a place that is absolutely safe?She was actually put in the dungeon, it was still such a dirty place, and this idea was thought up by Nan Xia Zhan Zhao, how did her Qin Niang offend Zhan Zhao, and made her suffer for nothing.
Zhan Zhao asked: "I heard that the girl has a clue and wants to tell Zhan?"
Qin Niang stood up and said angrily: "Yes, I have had enough of this place, as long as you release me, I will tell you what Aunt Wei is looking for."
Zhan Zhao said, "But you said the same thing before you came in."
Qin Niang said without blushing, "That's because you didn't keep your promise! There are so many rats here, and you can't get enough to eat. It's not a safe place."
Zhan Zhao stopped talking, and only looked at Qinniang with a smile. After a while, Qinniang lowered her head sullenly and said, "Okay, I can tell you, you must keep your promise."
Zhan Zhao said seriously: "If what the girl said is true, then Zhan will never break her promise."
Hearing this, Qin Niang could only obediently say: "Okay."
Seeing that she was finally willing to cooperate obediently, Bai Yutang crossed his arms and stood there boredly with a folding fan in his hand. It was too messy, otherwise he would have leaned directly against the wall.But even that couldn't stop him from shining brightly in the only ray of sunlight that was revealed.
Everyone's attention was on Qin Niang, and Qin Niang saw this dazzling young man in white: "She is looking for a key."
Zhan Zhao asked, "The key?"
Hearing this, Bai Yutang's heart skipped a beat. Coincidentally, he and Zhan Zhao bought a key. Could it be a coincidence?
But both of them remained silent, but continued to ask, "What key?"
Qin Niang smiled slyly: "Since I've finished speaking, shouldn't you keep your promise?"
Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao were silent, apparently dissatisfied with the answer, Qin Niang could only sigh in this silent atmosphere and continued: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you, that key is for It's open."
Qin Niang sat up a bit, and her expression showed that this was not something that could be explained clearly in two sentences, so Zhan Zhao listened patiently.
Qin Niang said: "I don't know if Mr. Zhan has heard a rumor about the Devil's Cult?"
Zhan Zhao frowned when he heard the word "Devil's Cult", his handsome face made people want to smooth those wrinkles: "Why is it the Demon's Cult again?"
Qin Niang said: "The news of the Demon Cult's comeback has been spread all over the Jianghu. Master Zhan is not in the Jianghu, so the news has been blocked."
Zhan Zhao didn't care about what Qin Niang said, and motioned her to continue, Qin Niang continued: "This is about a treasure that the Demon Sect found. Jianghu, I heard that you can live forever, making people number one in the world."
Zhan Zhao was silent for a moment, then looked up at Bai Yutang who was clearly bored, and said, "Brother Bai has heard of it too?"
Bai Yutang fanned his folding fan boredly, and said, "I'm tired of hearing all these news."
Zhan Zhao said something that Bai Yutang had always wanted to say: "This can unify the rivers and lakes, and the number one in the world can live forever. Doesn't it satisfy everyone's heart's wish? Is there really such a thing?"
Qin Niang said: "Of course!"
"The existence of the white jade cup is the only proof, and the key that Aunt Wei is looking for is the gate to the city of treasures." Qin Niang raised her head and said, "Master Zhan, if you still can't catch Aunt Wei, I'm afraid she will run away. "
Zhan Zhao stroked his chin and nodded, then turned his head and asked Wang Chao to open the door of Qinniang's cell.Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, they were ready to leave after asking, but before they left, Zhan Zhao asked again: "If that's the case, then who are you who know so much information?"
Qinniang was still a little happy to finally be able to go out. Hearing this, she said naturally: "I'm just a well-informed Qinniang. I accidentally caused a murder, and I need Lord Zhan to protect me!"
Zhan Zhao didn't know what flickered in his eyes, and chuckled lightly: "Really?"
After speaking, without waiting for Qinniang's answer, he and Bai Yutang left the dungeon.
After leaving the dungeon, Bai Yutang said, "She is not simple."
Zhan Zhao said: "Yes, I don't know what her intention is to sneak into the Kaifeng Mansion."
Yes, neither of them believed that Qin Niang entered Kaifeng mansion just to avoid being chased and killed. On the contrary, it seemed that they were sending this news specially to them, but both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were concerned about Qin The treasure that Niang talked about was not of interest.
But the two also noticed that there might be many conspiracies waiting for them behind Qinniang's words, which not only related to many people in the martial arts world, but also involved many clues.
When the two came out of the cell, Mr. Gongsun sent someone to say that Gu Hongqing was already waiting for them in Master Bao's study.
Hearing this, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang nodded, and went to Bao Zheng's study together.
It seems that the biggest witness, Gu Hongqing, is here, and the death of Hubu Shilang will soon have a result.
When they came to the study, Gu Hongqing and Bao Zheng had already chatted happily, and it seemed that the chat was over.
When he saw Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, Master Bao waved them in and said, "Mrs. Gu has already told me the whole story, so come and listen, especially Bai Yishi, I have wronged you these few days. "
Because Bai Yutang was slandered as the murderer who killed the servant of the household department, he has been staying in Kaifeng Mansion for the past few days. Rumors have spread all over the world. During the process, he asked Bai Yutang to help him investigate the case, especially when Gu Hongqing was found by Bai Yutang himself, so Bao Zheng's words were not wronged.
But Bai Yutang is not a person who does not discriminate between right and wrong, he shook his head and said, "Your Majesty Bao, you are welcome."
Bao Zheng stroked his goatee, nodded in satisfaction, and then heard Gu Hongqing say: "I have been in this business for so long, and I always receive some strange orders, and every time I receive such an order, I will make second-hand preparations. "
Everyone listened carefully, and then Gu Hongqing said: "Fifth Bai also knows that I am from the Gu family. Although I don't know much about martial arts, Yi Rong is capable, so I tracked down the person who placed the order and found out that he is actually Zhou. Family, this person is none other than the maidservant next to Mrs. Zhou."
Not Aunt Wei?Although this surprised everyone, they felt that it was expected. It was no secret that Zhou Yongtian spoiled his concubine and killed his wife. Mrs. Zhou couldn't bear such a husband, so she went all out and killed Zhou Yongtian and his favorite aunt.It's just that they didn't expect that when the Zhou family came to Kaifeng mansion to ask for Bai Yutang to be arrested, the woman surrounded by everyone had tears in her eyes and was very sad. How could she know that this person was the murderer of her husband.
The death of Hubu Shilang involved the court and many rumors in the world, but he did not expect that the murderer was just a person close to him.
Bao Zheng asked Gongsun Ce to sort out the ins and outs of the case, and then brought the case files into the palace and asked the emperor to make a ruling.
The Holy Majesty did not expect that Bao Zheng had already given him the answer in just one day. Finally, the Holy Majesty looked at the case file and sighed, and ordered the criminal Zhang Zhou to be arrested and beheaded immediately.His son, Zhou Qin, was not guilty if he didn't know it, but he was fined ten boards for causing trouble in front of the Kaifeng mansion.
But when the Kaifeng Mansion sent people to arrest him, he didn't expect that Mrs. Zhang Zhou had already committed suicide by hanging himself. Zhou Qin, who knew nothing, could only watch his mother hang herself in a daze, but heard that it was her mother who killed herself. The truth about the father.
I don't know where the news came from, Bai Fu soon knew that Bai Yutang didn't have to stay in Kaifeng mansion anymore, so he came to help pack things without saying much.
Zhan Zhao, who just came back from the outside, heard the servant girl talking about this matter, hurried back and saw that Bai Fu had already packed his things.
"Are you leaving?" Zhan Zhao asked.
Bai Yutang stood beside him leisurely, watching Bai Fu pack up his things, and nodded the fan in his hand: "The case has been settled, so there is no need for me to stay in Kaifeng mansion."
Zhan Zhao didn't know how to answer this sentence, but he hesitated in his heart, but Bai Yutang had no reason to stay.
Bai Yutang looked at him and smiled and said, "Although the case is settled, I don't plan to leave Kaifeng Mansion yet. I can come to Mei Mansion for a drink when I have time."
Zhan Zhao's eyes lit up, like a cat seeing food, he nodded and said, "Okay, it's a deal."
When Bai Yutang came, he was chic, but when he left, he took away a lot of people's hearts, especially those maidservants who stared at him and Zhan Zhao every day. Knowing that he was leaving, they all came out to see him off, reluctant to part. .After Bai Yutang left, when they looked at Zhan Zhao again, they looked like you are such a scum, everyone told you to let him go.
This made a gentle and popular Zhan Zhao feel a little ashamed, when did the maids in the mansion change into such a state.
At night, when Zhan Zhao went out to patrol with the yamen servants, a man in black quietly appeared in the warehouse, pried open the lock of the warehouse, and then quickly fled Kaifeng Mansion covered with something in a black cloth.
Before, Qinniang came to her door and said that she wanted to exchange news to protect her safety. Zhan Zhao did it and sent Qinniang to the safest place in Kaifeng Mansion, but Qinniang was very dissatisfied and didn't want to pass the news Hand it over, but I don't know why, but I suddenly wanted to say it today.
