Chapter 84: Chen Sangongzi
After sitting stunned for a long time, Chen Baoding recovered from the shock, and the world turned in front of him was slightly corrected.
"Where did the commander get this hosta?"
Yin Xuezheng chuckled, and asked instead of answering: "Master Chen, do you know who this green lady is?"
Chen Baozi shook his head.
"Green Lady, full name Du Green Niang, is the top girl in Qianyun Pavilion on Shuiluo Street, no wonder Lord Chen doesn't know it. β
This time, Chen Baoding was stunned, completely stunned, and he didn't even have a shocked reaction process.
What is the place of Shuiluo Street, and what is Qianyun Pavilion, everyone in the capital knows it.
It is the most famous brothel in Beijing.
What's the matter, the third son he is most proud of is actually with a girl from that kind of place......
But he had never heard even a word of it.
He only knew that the naughty second son often went in and out of that laughter field, and never thought that the third son, who had always been proud and self-conscious, would also be involved in this filthy place.
Is it that he is old and dizzy, that he is too ignorant, or that his son is too capable and too good at hiding.
Chen Baoding looked at the smiling commander of Long Xingwei in front of him in a daze.
It's not that he doesn't want to suspect that this hairpin is fake, what he said is also fake, and it was deliberately designed by Long Xingwei to set him up. But why? Long Xingwei really wanted to take him down, why did he have to do this kind of indiscriminate trick. They want to take him, no matter how clear and honest he is, he is nothing in the eyes of Long Xingwei, they have reasons and methods, and they can't make such indiscriminate jokes and spend such tricks that don't raise their faces.
Using this method to lose his Chen Baoding's face and reputation is still a small painting, and losing their Long Xingwei's inside is really a big problem.
Therefore, Chen Baoding subconsciously believed it, wanting to believe that this hairpin was true, believing that the words engraved on this hairpin were true, and believing that what Yin Xuezheng said was true.
His heart was dripping with blood from these beliefs.
He stood up sharply, wanting to question, but he didn't know how to question or who to question.
Just listening to his ears, Yin Xuezheng's yin laughter came little by little: "I heard that the Du Green Lady girl of Qianyun Pavilion plays the pipa well, although she is in Qianyun Pavilion, she is a chaste woman who sells her art and does not sell her body, which attracts the love and pursuit of the Chinese people in Beijing." There are also rumors that many scribes and sons in Beijing are jealous because of Du Luniang, and there are many contradictions, and they even have a feud because of this. There are also many sincere sons, in order to get the heart of the green lady, they spend a lot of money every day. As for giving valuable hand-decorated hairpins and the like, it's very common. β
Chen Baoding's face sank, are these words excusing him San'er, or are they making fun of his ignorance?
After staring at Yin Xuezheng for a long time, he replied coldly: "I think the commander is also one of these gentlemen." β
As soon as he said that, the magnolia hairpin was thrown back into the box in an instant. Chen Baoding was still breathless, but he was already exhausted and had to fall back into the circle chair. After recovering his breath, he raised his head slightly, but saw the young man standing in front of him with the box in his hand, his eyebrows were lightly raised, and he seemed to be looking at him with some unbearable and very worried, seeing him looking back, he hurriedly lowered his head and bowed, closed the box and quickly retreated behind Yin Xuezheng.
Why can't you bear it, why should you worry about him?
Chen Baoding's eyes turned around with the young man, and he was puzzled, but he heard Yin Xuezheng laugh again, and the strange voice of yin and yang came again: "Yin is not talented, he only knows some vulgar work of dancing guns and sticks, but he doesn't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. β
Chen Baoding sighed, forgot about the abnormality of the young man, and turned his eyes to Yin Xuezheng. He knew that he had just been angry, and he said rude words out of control, so he got up and apologized, and when he saw that Yin Xuezheng also got up and returned the salute, there was no annoyance on his evil face, so he asked again: "The commander came today, is it for my unfilial third son?"
These words were tentative, but his tone was uneven, still containing the indignation after being shocked. Of course, Yin Xuezheng knew that Chen Baoding was not really annoyed by himself, and when he heard this, he changed his previous attitude of warmth and evil, opened his mouth and laughed, and said: "Lord Chen doesn't have to care, this envoy has another question, can you know who is the master behind Qianyun Pavilion?"
The capital of this dynasty does not prohibit the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, and only demarcates a fixed place and franchises. And it is impossible to open a scene to solicit business in a laughing field such as Shuiluo Street and prosper for a long time without one or two strong backers behind it.
Chen Baoding naturally knew this, he didn't reply, only shook his head slightly to indicate that he didn't know.
Yin Xuezheng smiled and took a sip of tea: "Tian Shilang, are you familiar with adults?"
Tian Shilang? The waiter surnamed Tian only has Tian Heng, the left waiter of the Criminal Department, how can he not be familiar with it!
"Colleagues in officialdom, you can still say a few words. Chen Baoding raised his hand.
Yin Xuezheng smiled lightly: "This Tian Shilang is the backstage of Qianyun Pavilion. β
Chen Baoding was stunned, the Empress Dowager's in-laws, Tian Shilang's Mansion, was actually the backstage of the biggest prostitute in the capital?
This backer is really big.
"Commander makes this true?"
"How dare you be fake. β
"So what?"
"No, I just want to tell Master Chen. Yin Xuezheng smiled and flicked his fingertips, squinted at Chen Baoding and said, "Speaking of which, Lord Chen, you can know that although the third son and the second son in your mansion have different temperaments, they have a very close relationship in private, and they often secretly go to Qianyun Pavilion to listen to flower songs and drink flower wine together from the mansion. β
Hearing this, Chen Baoding's complexion, who had been relieved just now, changed again, his eyes were staring at Yin Xuezheng, and it took a while to suppress the panic and anger in his heart again, and said in a muffled voice: "The commander came to the cold house today and showed me those two things, just to inform the old man of the good things of my third son outside." Okay, okay, the old man is fully aware now, thank you for the commanding envoy's information. My third son, he, he is a rebel, a rebel. How the commander wants to be, don't worry about the old man, please take care of yourself. The old lady is old, she can't take care of it, she can't manage it. β
Yin Xuezheng squinted his eyes, raised his head slightly, didn't say anything more, only quietly looked at the emotional Chen Baoding.
He came to Chen Shilang's mansion today, mainly to test Chen Baoding, although there is a suspicion of startling the snake, but it is also a good investigation.
Since he found out the transcription books of the Yangtze River basin and the canal over the years, he also knew that the second son of the Chen Mansion also had a copy in his hand.
He sent someone to secretly keep an eye on the second son of the Chen Mansion, but found that the rumored second son and third son of the Chen family, who were not in harmony, secretly had a good relationship. Originally, this was just a private matter of other people's families, and he didn't care much about it, but when he investigated further, he found that the two brothers were in several laughing fields, because of their different temperaments and preferences, and they had different friends, which was normal. But there are a few people, a few people with very unusual backgrounds, and they have a very difficult friendship with the brothers.
These people with unusual backgrounds secretly appear in the same place with the two brothers from time to time, and then drink and talk happily.
behaved like a friend of life and death.
It's unusual, it's unusualβ
A month ago, Chen Ergongzi was suddenly hit by a carriage and died, and outsiders were shocked and suspicious, and there were many discussions. It can be observed that Chen Ergongzi's half-brother, Chen Sangongzi's performance is a little weird.
For other people's doubts and speculations, he was completely silent, his brother went unexpectedly, he was silent for a while, Ben also said. The two are not from the same mother, the brotherhood is not deep, and he does not grieve too much, which is understandable.
But Chen Sangongzi behaved too cautiously, too noncommittally, and too naturally after this.
This kind of performance, combined with the information we had before, seems to have only one answer, and the death of Chen Ergongzi was expected by Chen Sangongzi.
Therefore, Chen Sangongzi is so calm and natural.
All kinds of signs show that the water in this Chen Mansion is extremely abnormal.
Today's rash temptation, so far has achieved the expected results, Chen Baoding's performance is not like a fake, these various misfortunes, as the master of the Chen Mansion, Chen Baoding, is really kept in the dark.
If this is the case, then where does the water of this Chen Mansion come from?
The misfortune of the Chen family, is it just the personal behavior of the two brothers?
That's impossible.
After appeasing Chen Baoding for a few words, and chatting politely, Yin Xuezheng, who had already obtained the expected purpose, did not stay longer, and got up to say goodbye.
Out of the Chen Mansion, where Yin Xuezheng had no plan to go, he sighed lightly and squinted at Liu Shuangli, who was half a step behind him, and said with a smile: "Where do you want to go down Yang Qi?"
Liu Shuangli was stunned for a moment, and looked indifferently at the top boss of her top boss. When she went out today, she was called by a novice who had never been on a mission before, and she was not surprised, because she went to Chen's Mansion, which in the eyes of outsiders, had a deep relationship with her, and it was impossible to say that she was not called to take a look.
But when he came early in the morning, in addition to showing Lord Chen two things, Lord Chen was stunned for a moment, and almost fainted the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. Then, after asking a few more dispensable words, they left nothing, clapped their hands and left. No matter how smart Liu Shuangli is, no matter how rich his associative ability is, he can't figure out Yin Xuezheng's intentions, not to mention that she doesn't know who the actual person in charge of this Long Xingwei is.
Therefore, Yin Xuezheng suddenly asked like this, and really asked Liu Shuangli, she opened her eyes wide, and she was stunned for a long time and didn't know how to reply.
"Does Yang Qi have any plans to go today?" Yin Xuezheng asked with a smile.
"Me, the plan? No. Liu Shuangli shook his head again and again.
"Really, really not?" Yin Xuezheng half-squinted his phoenix eyes and looked at the girl in front of him playfully, "Haven't you been exploring a place these days, it's rare to go out, don't you want to stop by to have a look?"
Liu Shuangli was stunned again.
She's been curious about a place these days.
