Meng Heng looked at the few people opposite, smiled regretfully, shook his head, and said, "I'm sorry, there is nothing Meng can do about this situation." ”

The people looked at each other in disappointment, their faces were ashen, but one of them still asked without giving up, "Is there nothing you can do?" ”

Meng Heng glanced at him, his expression was unwavering, and he said lightly: "Elder Meng, but it is also a matter of people's hearts, and what a few people say, you should go to the famous doctor to ask for a skillful hand." ”

The man didn't say anything more, sighed, and left with the others.

Meng Heng raised the teacup and took a sip.

There are always ancients who can't tell the difference between a psychologist and an ordinary doctor, and he is really impatient to explain. The science popularization work of this dynasty has not been done at home, so he can't be allowed to do it for him.

Putting down the teacup, another person sat in front of him, a middle-aged man who was nearly forty years old, that person saw Meng Heng raise his eyes to look at him, and also looked at him a few times, and asked with some hesitation: "Your Excellency is Doctor Meng?" ”

Meng Heng nodded, and was about to open his mouth to answer, but he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure in the corner of his eye, and couldn't help squinting, all kinds of speculations flashed in his heart, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a playful smile.

However, he didn't show it on his face, turned his gaze, and said to the person in front of him: "It's Meng, Your Excellency is here, but what happened to the house?" ”

The middle-aged man's expression tightened, put away the contempt he had just given to the young man, and busily sorted out the affairs of the house.

It turned out that this man was the housekeeper of an official eunuch in the capital, and I heard the news that the Yichun Building spread out that every three days, there would be a capable person in the building who was good at the study of yin and yang arts.

Meng Heng listened carefully, groaned slightly, and said: "The situation of the eldest prince in your mansion has been understood a little bit, and the rest has to be inquired and inspected in person." In this case, you give me the address of the house first, and I will go to the house early tomorrow morning to treat the eldest son. ”

When the man heard this, he was overjoyed and thanked Meng Heng repeatedly.

Meng Heng shook his finger and smiled slightly: "Don't rush to thank you first." Meng's rules must have been heard by Your Excellency. A deposit of 20 taels is required before visiting the doctor. ”

"Oh, yes, yes." The man hurriedly took out the two ingots of silver that had been prepared long ago from his sleeve and put them in front of Meng Heng, and swore solemnly: "My master said, if Doctor Meng can cure his son's illness, don't say that these twenty taels are two thousand taels, and twenty thousand taels can be paid!" ”

Meng Heng squinted and smiled happily: "That's not necessary. Meng has always been charged according to the hour, one hundred taels per hour, and other than that, he is treated equally. ”

Of course, if the patient's family is willing to give more gratuity or something, he will not refuse.

When the man heard this, his face was moved, and he couldn't help but admire the young man a little more.

At a young age, not only is the craftsmanship exquisite, but also principled, and he does not charge indiscriminately, which is really a master.

Thinking so in his heart, he hurriedly made another big salute to the young man, and then left in a hurry.

Meng Heng put away his smile and glanced at a corner of the hall as if inadvertently, and then slowly put away the two ingots of silver on the table, sat alone for a while, and then got up to leave.

In order to catch a fish that was about to move, he needed to put a few baits in good place.

There are many entertainment places to drink tea and listen to music in the capital, Meng Heng has been enjoying all the way since he left Yichun Tower, stopping and stopping, and he is very happy, giving the figure enough time to keep up.

until the man scratched his ears and cheeks, and he couldn't bear it.

Meng Heng saw that it was almost time, and after a pause, he turned into a lonely dark alley.

At this time, it was the beginning of the lanterns, the sunset had converged the brilliance early, the dark alley was dark and dreary, and it was not clear to see, only a neon palace lamp outside the street shone in, illuminating a small square world in the alley.

Meng Heng leaned against the wall, his hands clasped around his chest, waiting for the stalker to walk in front of him step by step.

The man seemed to have taken a long time to get used to the dim light, and his steps staggered, and when he finally stood firm, he saw a vague figure in front of him.

As soon as he breathlessed, he heard the figure let out a chuckle, and his voice was clearer and better, but somehow it sent a chill down his spine.

He gritted his teeth, thinking of the orders and rewards of the person he trusted, and then thinking of the bold actions of the young man he had seen along the way, he suddenly pulled out a shiny dagger from his waist, slashed it twice into the air, and then shouted viciously: "Wu Na Xiao'er, I asked grandpa to follow me all the way, and now that you have entered this dead end by yourself, don't blame grandpa for being merciless!" Hurry up and hand over all the money and possessions on your body, so that you will not die. ”

After speaking, the man slashed the dagger into the air a few more times, and danced his teeth and claws, as if demonstrating.

Meng Heng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Tell me, then, who sent you to follow me? ”

“…… What are you doing with so much nonsense, your kid's life is now in the hands of my grandfather, why don't you hand over all the money quickly! The man shouted.

Meng Heng hooked his lips and smiled: "Deliver, of course I have to pay, after all, I regret my life." After that, he paused for a moment and said softly, "If you come closer, I will give you all the silver tickets." ”

The man frowned and took a step closer.

At the same time, Meng Heng's feet quietly stepped back a little.

"There are five hundred taels of silver tickets here, if you come here, I will give them to you."

The boy's voice was low, faint, with an irresistible seduction.

At that time, the neon color of the palace lamp happened to hit the young man's eyelids, and the eyes under the long eyelashes looked as dark as ink night and as clear as stars.

"Look me in the eye." He said softly.

The man looked at him a little dazedly, and then fell into a dense web of starry sky and moonlit nights, and fell into a deep depression.

"Since you won't answer my question honestly, then I'll have to do it this way." Meng Heng clapped his hands and narrowed his eyes happily: "Say, who asked you to follow me." ”

The man's gaze was completely blank, like a puppet being pulled, his lips opened and closed, and he replied blankly, "Yes...... Wang Shipu of the suburban Wang family ......"

"Oh?" Meng Heng raised his eyebrows with interest, and said, "Why did Wang Shipu ask you to follow me?" He told you to come and rob me of my money? ”

All he said was...... Let me find you...... Find a chance to ...... Teach you a lesson......" The man replied slowly, "I see that you are bold in your actions...... Lots of money...... I started to think about robbing money......"

"I see." Meng Heng clasped his hands around his chest, looked at the robbery-robbery-criminal with a critical gaze, and seemed to sigh lightly: "Hmm, it's a pity that he found the wrong person, shouldn't this kind of work of secretly rectifying people be handed over to professionals who are mixed in the underworld?" ”

"Besides, doesn't he know that the type of person he is most afraid of encountering is a hypnotist."

Meng Heng playfully raised the corners of his lips, and said to the robbery-robbery-criminal: "Although you are entrusted by others, even if you fall into my hands, you can't be asked to follow me all the way in vain, right?" ”

The man's lips twitched a few times, but he didn't make a sound, as if he didn't know how to answer.

"Well, since you like silver, I'll tell you to see enough." Meng Heng smiled slyly and said, "Turn around and go out of the alley, and when you see someone on the street who has silver in your hand, you will chase him, chase him for an hour or two, only chase, not move." And then, until someone sends you to the yamen, do you think that's good? ”

Meng Heng asked gently, robbed-robbed and robbed the prisoner in a stunned "um", and then obediently followed Meng Heng's words and walked out of the dark alley step by step.

Meng Heng followed, leaning on the entrance of the alley and watching the man's movements boredly.

As soon as the man saw the passer-by take out the money, he showed a greedy gaze, and leaned up tightly, but he was silent and silent, like a stupid idiot, which made the passers-by disgusted with him, and even a naughty child came to punch and kick him, but the man did not notice it, fell to the ground, and immediately got up, and when he saw anyone with a silver ticket in his hand, he immediately followed.

It is like a Lu Li who is controlled by silver money.

In his previous life, he had seen many of these kinds of lilys.

Meng Heng sneered and turned away boredly.

*

When he returned to the king's house, it was almost the time of the son. Meng Heng pushed open the door slightly tiredly and walked in, his eyes glanced slightly, but he was slightly stunned.

His room had been tampered with.

Meng Heng frowned, walked to the table in the middle of the room, and lit the wax.

The candle flame flickered and flickered, gradually illuminating the room.

The relative positions of the tables and chairs have changed, and the flower pots on the windowsill seem to have been moved.

Meng Heng walked over and squinted his eyes to take a closer look.

The branches and leaves of the calamus are very luxuriant, and after a few days of cultivation, a pot can no longer fit a little, and at a glance, it seems to be more prosperous than before going out in the morning.

However, Meng Heng could still see the slight difference at a glance.

A tiny branch was uprooted, and a few bits of silt were sprinkled on the edge of the porcelain basin.

Other than that, there doesn't seem to be anything missing in the house.

Meng Heng couldn't help but flash all kinds of speculations in his heart, coupled with the information revealed by the stalker just now, his face couldn't help but sink.

It seems that some people regard kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, and also treat him as cotton to be kneaded.

However, no matter what Wang Shipu says, he is also Wang Shixiao's cousin, so he will not move and see what tricks Wang Shipu can play.

He sneered coldly, quietly poured another handful of water on the stone calamus, and undressed and fell asleep with a blank face.
