[Comprehensive] The correct strategy of Xueba

Chapter 92 The first smart person in the world

When Mu Ye handed over, Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou returned to the inn.The two of them have been running around for a day, not to mention very tired, but they still feel tired.However, the inn they stayed in was still owned by the Hua family—the Hua family was quite powerful in the south, otherwise the Prince of the South would not have hosted a banquet as soon as Huamanlou arrived—the shopkeeper was naturally quite winsome. A sumptuous dinner was prepared for them early, and hot water can be delivered to the room at any time.

But the matter was not resolved, and of course the two of them didn't want to sleep that much, so they entered the box first.

"Who do you think can get the key from Jiang Chongwei?" Hua Manlou sat down and asked.

In the morning, Jin Jiuling took Lu Xiaofeng, him, and Wuming into the Nanwang Mansion together, and checked the treasure house, keys and rooms near the treasure house.Carefully, without omission.

The outside of the treasure house is heavily guarded.On both sides of the promenade at the entrance, there is an armored guard every three steps, a total of eighteen.The iron gate is more than one foot thick, and it takes a lot of internal skill to push it open.Naturally, the inside is also a copper wall and an iron wall, and there are three layers of iron nets under the roof tiles, and ordinary weapons can't cut it at all.

The place looked as if a fly couldn't get in, but there was still a gap—the floor.In fact, under the treasure house is a large wine cellar.If you dig from the bottom up, you can reach the treasure house.Moreover, the entrance of the wine cellar is in the bungalow next to the treasure house, so the guards are not so strict.

In fact, they soon discovered that there was a place under one of the large boxes that was very new in color and had obviously been dug up recently.In this way, the treasure house is not strictly a secret room, and one can guess how things happened——

The embroidery thief first entered the treasure house from the wine cellar and stole the pearl; then he blocked the hole, sat in the treasure house, and embroidered pretendingly.Jiang Chongwei opened the door and suddenly saw a bearded woman embroidering. His attention was drawn away, thinking that he had entered the treasure house out of thin air.Then, relying on his strong martial arts, the embroidered thief quickly blinded Jiang Chongwei's eyes and slipped away through the opened door.

And Jiang Chongwei naturally has the key to the wine cellar.

It was this key that Hua Manlou asked.Lu Xiaofeng naturally knew, but he frowned slightly: "It must be someone who is very close to Jiang Chongwei." The key was indeed not stolen, but it didn't take much time to make a mold with soft clay.

And when he said this, he couldn't help thinking about the relevant place: "Wu Ming can actually see him from Jiang Chongwei..." The second half of the sentence is inhumane, but Lu Xiaofeng didn't have the heart to say it, anyway, Hua Manlou will understand .

The three of them went to Pingnan Palace in the morning and Jiang Chongwei's residence in the afternoon.

Jiang Chongwei's eyes are still not good, so of course he can't go too far.According to what Lu Xiaofeng knew before, Jiang Chongwei has always been alone, and he doesn't have many friends, let alone his wife.But Sherlock checked inside and out, and directly pointed out that there was a woman who met Jiang Chongwei regularly, and the relationship was ambiguous and suspicious.

Of course, Sherlock's tone was sharp when he said it, and Jiang Chongwei's face was green and pale - no matter who was told this kind of privacy, his face would not be very good.What's more, Jiang Chongwei has just changed from the majestic head of the palace to a worthless blind man, so the mood can be imagined.Not only the always gentle Huamanlou, even Lu Xiaofeng couldn't listen anymore.

In the past, Jiang Chongwei would never be soft on anyone who dared to talk to him like this.But now he was depressed to the extreme, and he only dryly told about his fiancée Jiang Qingxia.On the surface, Jiang Qingxia was his younger sister, and would visit him on the fourteenth day of every month, and at this time she should be on the way to Wuyang City from Bixia Nunnery.The case of the Pearl of the Palace has already been spread, and Jiang Qingxia will be extremely anxious when she finds out about it. It is estimated that the thirteenth day—that is, tomorrow—will be here.

"Ask Jiang Qingxia tomorrow, and I'll know if she did it." Hua Manlou said while shaking his head, "But I hope it wasn't her."

"I also hope not." Lu Xiaofeng sighed.He has always been very sympathetic, but Jiang Chongwei was really unlucky this time. "But among Jiang Chongwei's other friends, there are no women at all." He took out a piece of red satin from his sleeve—they went to Huayuxuan in the afternoon, and this satin was obtained from the owner of Huayuxuan, Hua Yifan. of. "And his friends are all from the Jianghu, so it is impossible for them to be able to embroider."

Hua Manlou had touched satin, but he was not good at needlework, so he couldn't give any advice. "On this matter, it is natural that Madam Xue's words are the most reliable. But Madam Xue lives far away, and it is impossible to keep up with fifteen."

"That's right!" Lu Xiaofeng continued to study the black peony, "Wu Ming can see that the cloth and silk thread are all produced and sold by Fuji in Beijing, but it's too late to go to the capital to ask." He studied by the candlelight, "This Are peonies really embroidered by men?"

"I think it's a woman." Hua Manlou said, "There is a very faint fragrance on it."

"And even if Jiang Chongwei sees him pulling needles and threads, he may not necessarily be embroidering." A third voice sounded from outside the door, and then someone opened the door and walked in. "You always leave a table of good food and vegetables untouched, but I'm going to starve to death."

It was Wei Yang who came.He practiced kung fu for a day, and picked up the bowls and chopsticks as soon as he sat down.

"You're always very hungry recently." Hua Manlou couldn't help but laugh. He smelled the fragrance of wild hosta flowers in the outskirts of the city on Wei Yang's body, and knew that Wei Yang had indeed gone to practice.Then he thought about Wei Yang's words seriously, and he understood: "If it's not embroidery, it's just removing the stitches? If there were two layers of embroidery..."

Lu Xiaofeng's hand stopped immediately.From his angle, he can clearly see the larger stitches on the edge of the peony. "That's right!" He became excited, "The Embroidery Thief is not embroidering at all, but wants to make others think that he embroiders it himself!"

Wei Yang gulped down a large bowl of soup first, and then continued: "Hua Manlou is right, the peony was embroidered by a woman. Because this satin is actually a vamp, a woman's vamp."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded.Because Wei Yang's disguise is exquisite, and he has no flaws in pretending to be a woman. Knowing this is not a strange thing, he has no doubts. "That is to say, the embroidered thief is deliberately misleading us. In fact, he is a man?" He put down the satin cloth and stared at the Dinghu Shangsu on the table, but in fact his attention was not on the dishes at all. "But having said that, I seem to have seen a woman wearing red shoes somewhere?"

Lu Xiaofeng fell into deep thought, but Hua Manlou obviously couldn't know the answer to this question, so he remained silent.So in the following time, only the slight sound of Wei Yang eating can be heard in the box.

After a while, Lu Xiaofeng finally remembered. "It's in the Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion! That old lady carrying the basket is wearing such a pair of red shoes! Her uppers are owls!" She and Wei Yang gesticulated in the air for a while, and it was not difficult to see the shoes clearly.

"You really remember it clearly." Wei Yang affirmed. "Actually, I ran into her again today."

"What?" Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou said in shock in unison.Last time in Shanxi, that old woman had already fought against Wei Yang, and her skills should not be underestimated; if they met Wei Yang before the decisive battle, wouldn't it be a disaster for Wei Yang?

"It's okay." Wei Yang said. "She gave me a basket this time and left."

"A basket of fried chestnuts in sugar?" Hua Manlou asked.He did smell it, and thought Wei Yang bought it himself!

"I thought it was chestnuts fried in sugar, but it turned out not to be." Wei Yang said, lifting the basket from his feet, "Look for yourself."

Lu Xiaofeng took it and uncovered the floral blue cloth on it.Underneath is a layer of chestnuts, and then another layer of blue cloth.Uncover the second layer of blue cloth, and all kinds of jewels are shining brightly.There are also two white cloth bags, one contains a dozen or so Dongzhu the size of pigeon eggs, and the other contains a handle of warm and delicate Hetian jade Ruyi.

"How much will she sell you for this basket of chestnuts?" Lu Xiaofeng was stunned.Even if you are a friend, you usually don't give such a heavy gift, right?What's more, that old woman, like Shangguan Feiyan, is not easy to get along with, but she is so generous?It's really suspicious, right?

"Give it to me, it seems to mean apologizing." Wei Yang smiled.

He thought about it later, why Aunt Gongsun came to apologize.Aunt Gongsun must have disliked the person who caught her eighth sister at first, so they started fighting without saying anything.Then, Aunt Gongsun brought Shangguan Feiyan back, knowing that he would change his appearance.Later, knowing that Ye Gucheng was inquiring about the person who would change his face, she leaked the news.

The news of the red shoes organization is very well-informed, and of course they know the result——Wei Yang and Ye Gucheng will have a decisive battle in Nanwang Mansion on June [-]th.No matter how you look at it, someone will die. Shangguan Feiyan probably finally realized his conscience at this juncture, and told Aunt Gongsun the truth—in fact, Huo Xiu had lied to her; but the plan failed and was restrained by Wei Yang.

As for why Shangguan Feiyan didn't tell the truth, it's also very simple - because she is a very beautiful woman who cares about face, it's really disgraceful to be fooled around by an old man.

But what Shangguan Feiyan didn't know was that the plan also failed, and she would surely die if she fell into Huo Xiu's hands.And Aunt Gongsun is more familiar with world affairs than her, and knows this, so she came to Xie Weiyang to save the life of her eighth sister.

Although Lu Xiaofeng didn't know much about the entire Red Shoes organization, he roughly guessed the part related to the Embroidered Thief: "The Embroidered Thief wants us to suspect that old lady?"

"That old lady's background is indeed not small, and her martial arts are indeed much higher than that of Hua Yifan and Jiang Chongwei." Hua Manlou affirmed. "But if she stole those gold, silver and jewels, there is really no need to meet Wei Yang at this time - you know, she is more likely to be suspected if she shows up so early."

"It looks more like, someone knows that she is mysterious enough, and everyone doesn't know her, so they want her to take the blame." Lu Xiaofeng continued to deduce. "I checked Shangguan Feiyan's toes. She also wears red shoes, but the pattern on the upper is swallows. So I think there are probably a few other people wearing red shoes, and they are all women. Maybe there are some of them. One wants the position of the old woman. After all, the Embroidered Thief seems to know them well, and he is a man, so he needs a woman as an internal response."

Hua Manlou nodded.This guess is reasonable, but more evidence is needed.

"They all call you the smartest person in the world, I think it's true." Wei Yang praised sincerely.This is basically the same as the result he knew!I almost know the names of those two people!However, when Lu Xiaofeng was thinking, he was almost full.

Lu Xiaofeng came back to his senses, looked at the bottomless trays on the table, and then at the basket, and couldn't help but smile wryly: "No wonder Huo Xiu said I'm too smart to make money. Look, the person looking for you The gift is jewelry, and anyone who looks for me will only have trouble!"

Wei Yang also looked at the basket.Red shoes pay the most attention to sisterhood, and Aunt Gongsun fully embodies this point.Such a basket of sparkling jewels, even if he didn't know how much it was worth, he knew that it could be exchanged for many 1 taels of silver bills. "Since you say so, how about I give you this jewel?" He laughed.

Lu Xiaofeng was taken aback for a moment, and quickly waved his hands. "Forget it, I can't bear those two short swords!" He didn't know what he thought of, and his face was unnatural for a moment.

Wei Yang wanted to continue joking about giving Huamanlou or something, but the next moment he knew why Lu Xiaofeng refused - giving away a large amount of treasure before the decisive battle doesn't look like generosity, it's more like sharing an inheritance. "Okay, how about depositing it in the Hua family's bank first?"

Hua Manlou probably sensed the atmosphere, and immediately responded.

The atmosphere was a bit tense, Wei Yang began to rack his brains to find a topic.But he found it not too difficult: "You are back, where is Wuming?" Aren't they investigating the case together?Sherlock won't go somewhere to cause trouble again, will he?

This topic turned very well, because Sherlock left an incomparably deep impression on Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou today. "I really didn't know before..." Hua Manlou said half a sentence, but then paused.

Seeing this was not a good reaction, Wei Yang suddenly thought of how Sherlock had filled up the hatred value of all the police officers in Scotland Yard before. "What's wrong?" He asked cautiously.

Lu Xiaofeng finally found his suitable opportunity to play. "I swear I didn't know before today..." he said, and then picked out a few key points and told Wei Yang——

To Jin Jiuling: "The money is spent on women, pay attention to nourishing the kidney."

To the guards of the palace: "You have trampled on this ground so that you can't see anything useful! Are they all idiots?"

To Jiang Chongwei: "You don't lift it."

"I think Wuming is not in a good mood recently, although he didn't say it." Lu Xiaofeng finally concluded.Although he knew that what Wuming said was the truth, even if it was the truth, he couldn't say that!

Wei Yang silently wiped away the black lines all over his head.He knows it!Sherlock can offend a lot of people with just one word, if Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou are not good at self-cultivation, there will be a good show at this time.

"Or, because he went with us." Hua Manlou added, obviously pointing to something.

Wei Yang was wiping off cold sweat this time.How do you know again, playboy! "Then where did he go?"

"I haven't seen you since I came out of Huayuxuan..." Before Lu Xiaofeng could finish answering the question, the subject of the topic rushed in from outside without saying a word—the target was accurate, and Wei Yang was dragged away.

"...Hey! What are you doing?" Wei Yang's protest disappeared outside the door.

After the person left, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't continue speaking, and could only silently look at the shaking door panel. "If you ask Wuming to go next time, wouldn't it be best to call Wei Yang along?"

"I think so." Hua Manlou suddenly smiled when he heard the voice going away.
