Chapter 5

In April in Hangzhou, the sun is still in the west with a touch of red, the Goolan tiles by the West Lake are on the lanterns, and the soft willow silk is brushed to the pedestrians on the side of the road under the caress of the spring breeze, such as the amorous girl holding the lover. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt's a pity that it can't be saved in the end, and the Fangyun Building on the other side is the purpose of pedestrians.

When the guests were laughing and laughing, the lobby of Fangyun Building darkened, and only people were seen. Everyone was talking about each other, and some of them came for the first time and asked, "Why is it dark?" ”

Suddenly, the sound of silk and bamboo sounded in the ears, and accompanied by the uncommon drum sound, the figure of the dancing figure standing on the half-height platform with the beat of the drum, the octagonal turning lamp hanging in the hall suddenly lit up, with, the red peach petals, fell on the stage like rain from the air, the figure of the dancing figure raised his hands lightly, the long white ribbon seemed to have life, shuttling in the peach blossom rain, the graceful figure wrapped in the sara fluttered like a frightening Hong, graceful like a dragon, only to see the light yarn dancing all over the stage.

The dance stopped, the music stopped, and there was silence in the lobby, as if a needle could be heard on the ground. I don't know who came back to his senses first, stroked his palm and shouted: "Wonderful, wonderful, the Nine Heavens Fairy is nothing more than that." Everyone woke up like a dream and burst into thunderous cheers.

"Mother Liu, who is she?" It was Zhao Fugui, the son of a salt merchant in the city, who spoke. Although the face of the dancing woman just now was not clear, it would not be far worse from that posture. With a beauty, how can he, a famous flower, let go.

The old bustard of Fangyunlou said with a smile: "Zhao Gongzi is really good eyesight, she, she has just been here for the past two days, and she came out to meet guests for the first time today." Zhao Fugui took out a silver ticket from his arms and slapped it on the table: "I want her tonight." Before the old bustard could speak, a mocking voice clearly floated into Zhao Fugui's ears: "I want to be wide for only two hundred taels, it's really laughing to death." With the voice fell, a silver ticket of five hundred taels fell, the two looked up, and the old bustard exclaimed: "Shen Gongzi......" Zhao Fugui raised his head and saw the arrogant face of Yunyue, the son of Yin of Hangzhou Mansion, although he was not convinced, he did not speak. Since ancient times, the people have not fought with the officials, and how can the small salt merchants be compared with the Yin of Hangzhou Prefecture.

Shen Yue said proudly: "Mother Liu, this beauty is mine tonight." Looking at this silver ticket of Ruifeng Qianzhuang, Mother Liu was not moved, but she didn't reach out to take it, and sighed helplessly: "Shen Gongzi doesn't know, leaving Yiyi girl, she is not selling her body." Shen Yue said angrily: "I don't know how to lift, in this kind of place, what kind of high is it pretended." If she doesn't accompany me today, I'll demolish your Fangyun Building today! ”

"Shen Gongzi...... This, this is unacceptable. Mother Liu rubbed her hands anxiously.

When he was in a hurry, Li Yiyi slowly walked from the second floor to Shen Yue, and the soft voice was not loud, but it quieted everyone.

A pair of plain hands gently pressed the silver ticket and pushed it in front of him: "Shen Gongzi, although Yiyi is in the fireworks, he is by no means a lowly person, these five hundred taels, please take it back." ”

Young Master Shen, who has been praised since he was a child, how can he stand this anger, his face changed immediately, and he raised his hand to fight: "You slut".

How can this delicate and weak woman who can be blown down by a gust of wind, how can she stand it, some people have already turned their faces away, and they can't bear to look at it. Suddenly, a pair of chopsticks stretched out halfway and grabbed this fierce palm, and Shen Yue's eyes seemed to be on fire: "Where did you come from, bastard, dare to take care of Young Master Ben's affairs." ”

"Hangzhou Mansion Yin, is just a second-grade official, if your father is a first-class official, then wouldn't you turn this Hangzhou city over."

Shen Yue gritted his teeth: "Who are you?" ”

"Su Haotian."

Shen Yue, who was still angry just now, immediately quieted down, and his attitude was very respectful: "Lord Su, the villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and I hope Lord Su will forgive his sins." And he hurried away.

As a courtesy, I was deeply blessed: "Thank you Lord Su for relieving the siege." Su Haotian said lightly: "It's a matter of effort." He sat down, continued to drink, and turned away from Yiyi. The gray-clothed man on the side smiled: "She was the first to talk to you today, but you were so cold." Li Yiyi asked in a low voice, "Mother Liu, who is he?" Mother Liu lowered her voice: "He's the chief catcher of the six doors, and people say that as long as he's there, it's fine." Hey, hey, oh, whew, bh, whew, bh, wh ”

"Haotian, it seems that everyone treats you as a bull and a horse."

"Bow your head and drink your wine."

"Haha, I was told that the matter was the center. Ouch ......"

Since the appearance of Yiyi, Fangyun Building has been full of ****, and Liu's mother can't close her mouth when she smiles every day. After that day, Su Haotian never appeared, and he didn't go to his heart from Yiyi.

One morning, the sleepy-eyed Runtang was awakened by a knock on the door, and when he opened the door, he found that it was a woman who was drenched in water and looked at him like a beggar, and said, "I'm so hungry...... and looked closely, there were still blood stains on his body. The runners were busy closing the door as if they had seen a plague. But she couldn't close it, and the woman reached the door with one hand and looked at him: "I'm so hungry." The runner was in a hurry: "Get out of here." She had to slowly turn away. At the moment when the door of the running hall was closed, Li Yiyi, who came down from the upper floor, saw it, and hurriedly ordered: "Call her over quickly." Ran Tang was stunned: "Yiyi girl, she is so dirty, there is still blood on her body, I don't know if there is an enemy chasing and killing, or ......" Liyi glanced at him, ran Tang closed his mouth, and immediately opened the door: "Hey, hey, you come here." ”

The woman turned around blankly, and asked softly in a soft voice, "Why are you here?" The woman shook her head, "I don't know." Li Yiyi frowned slightly: "What's your name?" The woman shook her head, "I don't know." Then he asked, "Where do you come from?" Again, the one who replied, "I don't know." Li Yiyi looked her up and down for a long time: "So, where are you going?" Still shaking his head.

Runtang said in a low voice: "Yiyi girl, I'm afraid she's a fool, get rid of her, don't let the boss lady see it." Li Yiyi glanced at him: "I have a reason for this, you don't have to worry about it." Then he said softly: "Since you have nowhere to go, then stay here and have food every day, okay?" Hearing that there was something to eat, the woman nodded hurriedly.

"Come, come to my room first, and change your clothes." Leaving Yiyi, he pulled the woman and went to his room. The runner wondered for a long time, but he still didn't understand why this fairy-like detachment was so considerate to this beggar.

Looking at the person standing in front of her, Mother Liu frowned, her feet were big, her shoulders were wide, her hands were thick, and she was dazed. It is like a family with the two fools on the adjacent street, and the girl with the worst figure in Fangyunlou stood up to compare with her, and they were all weak willows and wind. The most ordinary girls stand up and compare with her, they are all beautiful and fragrant.

Mother Liu shook her head: "Yiyi, it's not that my mother is reluctant to invite one more person, it's just that you see her like this, she looks vulgar, where can she do what we do." Li Yiyi said lightly: "Yiyi naturally knows how to do it like this, but she is just a little maid who serves tea and vegetables, and she doesn't need to give her money, just eat and live." ”

Seeing that she was so persistent, Mother Liu didn't want to offend the red-card girl for such a trivial matter, so she agreed, and ordered her to only work in the back hall and not to go to the hall, so as not to affect the reputation of Fangyunlou with her appearance. In order to be a good name, he also gave her a name - Ugly Slave. Although the ugly slave doesn't remember anything, he learns it quickly. On the one hand, there are all kinds of chores in the back hall, and on the other hand, other girls often ask her to help them do things.

"Ugly slave, get me some water."

"Ugly slave, wash my clothes."

"Ugly slave, get me rouge gouache."

"Ugly slave, bring me food."

"Ugly slave, give me ......"

Thanks to her quick hands and feet, she dealt with these more than 20 girls by herself, but nothing went wrong. Among so many people, only Liyi has never called her, perhaps because she already has a clever girl ring by her side, and she doesn't need to grab this one with others. And he never spoke to her again, as if this person had nothing to do with her.

On the seventh day of the fifth month, the crescent moon is like an eyebrow.

Fangyunlou was still full of guests, and suddenly a woman screamed: "Ah, it's murderous." "In Miss Tanyun's room, there was a male corpse lying there, and the wine glass was knocked over to the ground, as if he had been killed by surprise. The servants and servants soon came, and after the examination, it was found that the only fatal wound on the body was a small hole in the heart, but no blood flowed out. If you look closely, the wound is a little white, and when you pick it out, you find that it is a white feather, which has been stained crimson with blood.

Could it be that the murder weapon was this soft feather? He couldn't believe it, and was still looking for a hidden weapon like an iron needle. "Don't look for it, it's Tianfeng Bai Yu, it's the murder weapon." With a deep voice, Su Haotian stepped into the room.

"Master Su, why are you here too?" I wondered a little, a person died in Qinglou, is it worth alarming the six doors to arrest? Su Haotian searched carefully: "Before he died, the sword had already been drawn halfway. He looked around again, and there was a small hole in the window paper, "It seems that it came from outside the window." ”

"Whose house is this?" Su Haotian asked, and Tan Yun, who was almost paralyzed into mud, barely walked over, his voice trembling: "Yes...... It's mine, my lord, I didn't kill people. Su Haotian smiled: "I know it's not you, and your hand can't send out the white feathers of the heavenly phoenix." He came in, you know? ”

"Yes, he's my guest."

"And where did you go when he came in?"

"Mom called me over." Liu's mother hurriedly testified: "Yes, I asked her to go to the lobby." There is a Zhu Gongzi, I have to see her, I have to ......"

"I didn't ask you, don't interject." Su Haotian coldly blocked Liu's mother's words. Turning his head and asking, "Who else has entered your room?" ”

"I, I'm afraid that this uncle will be bored, so I asked the ugly slave to send wine."

"Who's the ugly slave?"

"It's a girl who specializes in chores in the back hall."

"Call her."

After a while, Mother Liu brought her over, and Su Haotian was shocked when she saw her: "It's you!! Liu's mother, who was afraid of things, hurriedly said: "Oh, her origin is unknown, we took her in because we saw her living on the street, but I didn't expect it to be a murderer, adults take her away." I really don't know anything. ”

The ugly slave saw Su Haotian but was unusual: "Who are you?" Do I know you? Su Haotian's right hand secretly lucked his true qi and put it on the shoulder of the ugly slave, and she sat on the ground with an "ouch". Su Haotian was surprised and reached out to grab her wrist. A serious face smiled slightly: "I didn't expect you to have today." ”

I don't know when, Li Yiyi leaned against the door and said lightly: "Could it be that Lord Su knows her?" ”

Looking at the ugly slave's face, Su Haotian said: "I don't just know, I'm very familiar." ”

"In that case, why didn't Lord Su take her away?"

"Take away? Where to take it? Su Haotian said strangely.

Li Yiyi smiled: "If it is a prisoner, it will be taken to prison." If it is a friend or relative, keep it at home. Su Haotian let out a long sigh: "Neither." He turned to Liu's mother and said, "She is not a prisoner, so don't be nervous." ”

Hearing this, Mother Liu, who had been worried for a long time, asked: "Then ...... is she" "You don't have to ask more, let her continue to work ****." Liu's mother only agreed, her mind was blank, and she had no idea. Su Haotian looked at the people around him, he couldn't help frowning, and just wanted to speak, he had already opened his mouth from Yiyi: "Don't gather around here to influence Lord Su's case, if Lord Su wants to inquire, he will naturally call you, go back." Ugly slave, help Tan Yun to the Spring Pavilion to rest. ”

"Tsk, if there is a murder, you don't panic, you are like the bustard here." Su Haotian sighed.

A gust of wind blew, blowing up her wide palace sleeves, revealing a white lotus-like arm, and pulled away from Yiyi inadvertently: "Where, Yiyi also retired first." ”

Looking at her distant back, Su Haotian smiled, looked down again, and felt that the position of the stool was different, and he practiced it repeatedly, and found that the deceased should be facing the door before he died, if he found that Tianfeng Bai Yu shot in, it should be facing the window, then it means that at first he drew his sword for the person who appeared at the door, it seems that there are two murderers.

When he returned to the yamen, he instructed his subordinates to find out the identity of the deceased, and he sat in front of the case, recording the details of the discovery at the scene. Su Haotian put down his pen: "What person?" ”

"He calls himself Kimihiko."

"What are you looking for me to do?"

"The case about Fang Yun Lou."

Who will it be, Su Haotian thought for a while: "Let him come in." ”

The person who came was wearing an ink-colored robe, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, holding a folding fan in his hand, and when he saw Su Haotian, he did not bow down, but only bowed: "Master Su." ”

Su Haotian is also a human in the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't care, just looks at him: "What's the matter with looking for this official?" Jun Yan smiled: "It's for the murder of Fang Yunlou." ”

"Mo Fei, do you know who the murderer is?"

"Of course, I know this, but I can't tell you." Jun Yan shook the folding fan lightly, "I just want to tell you that the deceased of Fangyun Tower, it is not a pity to die, it is better for you to focus your energy elsewhere." ”

"It's not up to you and me to have the final say, we have our own laws. If you don't say who the murderer is, you will know and not report it, and you will be harboring and shielding. Su Haotian said coldly.

Seeing him like this, Jun Yan put away the folding fan: "That's all you say, it's your business to listen or not, say goodbye." ”

Jun Yan turned around and wanted to leave, but only saw a figure flickering in front of him, Su Haotian said: "The six doors are not a place where you can come and leave if you want to, and if you don't say who the murderer is, don't want to leave." ”

With a cold snort, Jun Yan's body turned around, and he threw himself towards the window, Su Haotian grabbed his sleeve, "hiss", the sleeve broke, Jun Yan was annoyed, took out a white feather from his arms and threw it at Su Haotian, Su Haotian strained very quickly, and his waist fell back, which was able to avoid this menacing hidden weapon.

"It's you!" Su Haotian stopped, "I don't know, what do you call Mr. Bai Yu?" ”

"It's none of your business."

Su Haotian said with a smile: "On that day, Mr. Bai Yu was besieged by the enemy, and he was hit by a sword in the chest and fell off the cliff. Since then, Tianfeng Baiyu has disappeared in the rivers and lakes for 20 years. Could it be that the dead in this Fangyun Tower are related to the people who besieged Mr. Bai Yu that day? ”

"Take your time and guess." Jun Yan jumped out of the window, and after a few ups and downs, he disappeared without a trace.

Su Haotian didn't chase after it, squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "This light exercise method, well, it's a little familiar." He turned his head to look at the white feather nailed to the wooden pillar with only a white spot, and said to himself: "Ping Ming is looking for the white feather, not in the stone ridge." What a domineering kung fu. "Nothing was said all night.

At dawn the next day, a servant came in to report: "My lord, the identity of the deceased has been found, his name is Zhang Feng, the owner of Biluo." Biluozhuang started 20 years ago, and now sells jewelry for a living, and he has been going to the party every day since he left Yiyi in Fangyun Building. Su Haotian waved his hand and let him go down. It seems that it is necessary to go to Fangyun Tower again.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the back hall of Fangyun Building.

"Ugly slave, where did you run just now, these clothes will be washed today, and you will wear them tomorrow."

After taking the dozens of clothes thrown away, the ugly slave sat by the well, and began to wash hard, and when all the clothes were washed, he just wanted to stretch his waist, but saw a pair of feet in front of him, "I didn't expect that the number one killer in the rivers and lakes would hide in this place as a handyman." The ugly slave was stunned, a sword shining with cold light was already in front of her, she flashed clumsily, but her head hit the edge of the well, fainted, and the man was also stunned: "Could it be that her amnesia is true?" "True amnesia or fake amnesia, only the dead are the safest. He stabbed his sword again, but he felt a shock to his wrist, and his sword was hit on the wrong by a white feather. I turned my head to look, but there was no one.

"Hell." Another sword stabbed down, and was stopped by another sword, he raised his head, Su Haotian: "Although it is not broad daylight now, you can't blatantly commit murder in front of the court officials." ”

The man raised his sword and said: "You don't meddle with things, she killed my eldest brother, I want to seek revenge on her!" ”

"Big brother? Are you Zhang Feng's younger brother? ”

"Yes, my name is Zhang Yue!"

Su Haotian shook his head: "Zhang Feng was not killed by her. ”

"Even if it's not her, it can't be separated from her!"

"Do you have proof?"

"Nope."

"Without evidence, it is impossible to take a person's life because of a judgment."

"Do you know who she is?"

The corners of Su Haotian's mouth twitched: "What is clear can't be clearer." ”

"In that case, you're still stopping me?"

"Ugh." Su Haotian sighed, "I've wanted to arrest her for a long time, but this guy has always been cunning and has never left any evidence." ”

"You don't see it." The person who was bent on avenging his brother raised his sword again, and Su Haotian stopped again: "Impossible." ”

"I see, you are protecting this witch."

"Whatever you want."

Jin Ge's fighting, although Zhang Yue's martial arts lost slightly, Su Hao Tianshang had to be distracted to take care of the fainting ugly slave, and under the dual use, the two could not distinguish the winner. Seeing that he was fighting for a long time, Zhang Yue was anxious, sold a flaw, and slashed at the ugly slave with a sword, Su Haotian hurriedly went to stop it, but unexpectedly, this was a false move, Zhang Yue threw out a plum blossom dart with his left hand and went straight to Su Haotian's right eye.

A silent white shadow flashed, and the plum blossom dart fell to the ground, and what was inserted on it was the unrivaled white feather of the heavenly phoenix. The two of them looked in the direction where Bai Yu shot from, but there was still no one, only to feel a breeze blowing on their faces, and the ugly slave who fell by the well was gone.

"Looks like we don't need to fight." Su Haotian returned the sword into the sheath, "Farewell." He walked towards the lobby, and the soft cloud dance of the girl was making the last move. The lights turned on, and when Li Yiyi saw Su Haotian in the audience, she smiled slightly and jumped off the stage: "You are here again." Su Haotian obviously felt the hostile gaze around him shooting like an arrow, and he smiled bitterly: "Miss Li, if the gaze can kill people, I have already died hundreds of times......

Li Yiyi looked around and smiled again: "In this case, let's go to the room and say, lest Master Su die under the eyes of others." Mother Liu just wanted to say something, but the cold glint in Yiyi's eyes flashed immediately, and Mother Liu went to greet the other guests, which was exactly what Su Haotian saw in his eyes.

When he returned to the room and sat down, Li Yiyi poured a cup of hot tea for Su Haotian, he didn't speak, just looked at Li Yiyi carefully, Li Yiyi hurriedly lowered his head, and touched his face with his hand: "What?" Is my face dirty? ”

"I should have thought of it, Liyiyi, it is Mr. Bai Yu's orphan, his name is Bai Junyan, right?"

Li Yiyi's expression did not change: "Although Yiyi is an orphan girl, I don't need Master Su to designate a father for me." Su Haotian smiled: "Why don't you admit it, the deceased Zhang Feng was the mastermind who besieged your father that day, you avenged your father, it is excusable, I will deal with it lightly." ”

"Hahaha......" Li Yiyi changed her delicate appearance, laughed, and bent down with a smile.

Su Haotian raised his eyebrows: "Is it so funny?" ”

Li Yiyi smiled: "You, you really can imagine, I am Bai Yu's daughter, and I ...... It's also called Bai Junyan, hahahaha......"

"Isn't it? When I saw your arm that day, I knew that your wrist strength must be stronger than ordinary people. And many of your actions on the stage are light exercises, and others can't see them, so how can I not know. Su Haotian stood up, "How much money did you give her?" ”

"She?" Li Yiyi looked at Su Haotian puzzled, "Who is she?" ”

"The more you pretend, the more she doesn't look like, she is Bai Ying, the number one killer in the rivers and lakes, and the girl with the pseudonym of Ugly Slave is her, don't say you don't know her."

A helpless voice came from the door: "The more I guess, the more wrong I become, it's clear that I gave her money." Bai Ying was still dressed roughly, with a glint in her eyes, and she was completely like the rough girl squatting by the well to do laundry.

"Since both of you are here, why don't you make it clear." Su Hao sat down again.

"I asked Zhang Feng for the front account, he didn't give it, brought dozens of archers to surround me, behind me is a waterfall, in front of me is a sharp arrow, jumping off the waterfall nine deaths, being shot into a hedgehog ten deaths, smart as me, of course jumping down. You know what happened next, I don't remember anything, I was taken in here by Liyiyi. Bai Ying shrugged, "Then, my head hit the well platform, and I remembered the previous things again, and that's it." ”

"Who killed Zhang Feng? You ask him what he wants. ”

"Oh, I went in with the wine, and when he saw me, he drew his sword and tried to kill him, and a feather flew out of the window and stabbed him in the chest, and that's it. As for who shot it, I don't know. As for the previous account...... Hehe, Bai Yu's surname is Bai, and Bai Ying's surname is Bai, what do you say is the previous account? ”

Hearing this, Su Haotian was stunned: "Could it be that you are Bai Yu's orphan?" ”

"Ah, I finally got it." Bai Ying stretched out her hand and took the tea in front of Su Haotian in her hand and drank it all.

Su Haotian turned his head to look at Li Yiyi: "Then this day the phoenix white feather ......"

Liyi Yirou smiled softly: "I don't know what Tianfeng Tianlong, the ...... of white feathers and black feathers"

Don't you admit it to death, Su Haotian sighed and shook his head, Bai Ying, who has the motive to kill, has no ability to kill, and Li Yiyi, who has the ability to kill, has no motive to kill.

Bai Ying smiled when she saw his distressed look: "You have also asked me many questions, and now, I want to ask you a question." ”

"What's the problem."

"Do you like our girl?"

"What !!" Su Haotian was stunned.

"Bai Ying, shut up!"

"Oh, I'm shy, Master Su, this shy girl, I was tempted when I saw you at first sight." Bai Ying turned around and jumped out of the door, "What about you, ask your right eye, do you like her?" ”

Right eye? Su Hao Tianmeng Province, or not Tianfeng Bai Yu, is afraid that his right eye has already confessed. At that time, Liyiyi's purpose was to save Bai Ying, and Bai Yu was easy to expose himself and shorten the time to save people. She did this, could it really ......

Li Yiyi raised his eyebrows: "Master Su! If you're all right, go out, and you're tired and want to rest. ”

Bai Ying, who was squatting in the opposite room, watched Su Haotian being pushed out of the door, the door was closed, shook her head and smiled: "These two enemies ......"

"You don't care if we are wronged, it's serious to pay off the money owed to me." At some point, Liyi appeared behind her.

"I know you're doing a good job, so you don't have to come out of nowhere to be scary." Bai Ying pursed her lips dissatisfiedly, "Since you like him, why don't you make it clear, this is not like your style at all." He paused again: "It's really a woman's heart, a needle under the sea." The submarine needles in this Fangyun Building are even more difficult to fish. ”

Li Yiyi looked at Su Haotian's departing figure: "I don't know either...... Maybe it's because he's afraid he'll say no. Tomorrow I will leave here and go to Kaifeng, so that I don't have to look at him upset. Turning her head to look again, Bai Ying was gone, and she snorted coldly: "Run fast, and charge you ten times the interest next time." ”

Walking on the road, Su Haotian kept echoing the question in his mind: "Do you like Yiyi?" Do you like Yiyi? Do you like Yiyi? He seemed to like it a little, but he couldn't be sure, so he said to himself: "I'll apply for transfer to Kaifeng tomorrow, so I don't have to worry about staying here." ”

Two people under the moon made the same decision. The gears of fate began to turn. (To be continued.) )
