Chapter 242: Night Detective
Luo Niang didn't have anything to do in her heart, although she felt that her master's actions in the Chen family were a little inappropriate, so she turned around and forgot about it.
Now she has a high spirit, and she is just a Chen family, so she won't miss it for too long.
Hongchen is very concerned and has been sending people to keep an eye on it.
In less than two days, there was movement in the Chen family.
Chen Wen sent a post and wanted to ask to see the county lord.
As an official of the imperial court and a man, it is not good for him to see the county lord directly, but this time he ignored the rules and ran directly to the county lord's mansion to wait.
Hongchen was at home, and he didn't embarrass him, and after receiving the post, he asked people to invite him in and wait in the living room.
As a result, Chen Wenyi looked like a red dust, his face changed color, and he couldn't help but bow his head, and it took a long time before he remembered to get up and salute.
Hongchen didn't know him, looked up and down and smiled: "Lord Chen? I looked at the face of the good, I think I met it in the palace? β
Chen Wen was silent for a long time before he said softly: "I didn't expect the county lord to come, it was Chen Wen's rudeness, I hope you will forgive me." β
His whole body became very haggard, his face was pale, his whole body exuded a decadent atmosphere, and he looked several years old, and he was weak to even say polite words.
"It's not too early, I have to go into the palace to send tonic soup to Niangniang, how about we get straight to the point?"
Hongchen sighed.
Chen Wen nodded.
"Lord Chen should have been seriously ill, and he has encountered a lot of bad luck, and he will soon be even more unlucky, I guess, today is the most unlucky."
Chen Wen still didn't speak.
In fact, he smashed his errand today. His Majesty was furious and dismissed him from his post and investigated, although he is still sitting here peacefully, but after a while, he can get out smoothly, resign and go home, it is a great luck, in case if the Lord is not happy, it is not impossible to even exile the family.
He has worked hard for so many years. finally turned the Chen family back into an official eunuch family. In the future, his son will never suffer the hardships he has endured again, but the sea is difficult and careless. All hands are lost.
"Hey. It's all feng shui that has changed. β
Hongchen shook his head. "Tell me, you're idle, what's going on at home. I could see at a glance that it must have been recently renovated, and the furniture had been replaced, and your study and bedroom were originally fine, but it was a good thing to change like this, and it was a mess! β
Chen Wen's lips moved, and he stopped talking, and only said after a while: "No matter what, please save me from the county lord!" β
Hongchen sighed and said with a wry smile: "Actually, it's easy, as long as you restore your house to normal, it will naturally be fine, otherwise it will be useless for you to move, you have lived in that house for many years, and they are related to each other, even if you move farther, it can also affect you." β
Chen Wen trembled, gritted his teeth, didn't say a word, his whole body trembled slightly, his whole body was cold, he shook his head vigorously, and finally got up suddenly, and said tremblingly: "...... I see, trouble the county lord. β
With that, he staggered away.
Luo Niang sent people out all the way, and when she came back, she silently followed her own county lord, followed up the bedroom all the way, and muttered in a low voice: "This person is a bit weird, if he changes someone else, even if he kneels down and kowtows, he should let the county lord help him restore everything to normal, what kind of trouble is this, and he just left." β
Hongchen didn't speak with a cold face.
Xiao Yan sat on the side, embroidering a handkerchief very casually, and raised his head when he heard the words: "It's so weird, there must be a ghost in my heart." β
These two girls don't know, Chen Wen also dressed up in disguise and went to Wang Banxian to find a way to exorcise ghosts, if they knew, they would definitely be even more surprised.
His wife had just died, and it was strange that he didn't want her to be gone, and he came to a dream to exorcise ghosts.
Hongchen exhaled and sneered: "This person wants to whitewash the peace, just to see if he can do it." β
The night is dark and the wind is high.
Suddenly, it began to rain, and the moon was reflected in a dense curtain of rain, as if it was half asleep.
Wang Banxian held an umbrella and trembled step by step.
Hongchen is also holding an oil-paper umbrella, with a sky blue background, and an ink landscape painting on it, which is very delicate and beautiful.
"County Lord, we don't sleep at home in the middle of the night, just go out and walk around the street, why do you want to come to this place."
This place is an alley, deep and dim, and that's it, there is still a place of yellow paper floating on the ground, up and down.
In front of it are white candles, white flags, and the shadows of the trees, not to mention the night, even if you come in the daytime, at first glance you are short of breath.
"It's so eerie, it's so weird!"
"Sit down for a while."
Hongchen walked straight to the bottom of a shed, this place is relatively private, there is a big tree in front of it, the branches are luxuriant, just enough to block the shadow.
There are also three or five stone piers placed under the shed, and there is also a bluestone slab, and in the past, there were occasional leisure people sitting here chatting and laughing, so it was a lively scene.
Wang Banxian sighed, took out a dumpling from his arms, broke it, and divided half of it to Hongchen, "I remember that it was very lively here, and I don't know how many people have been there in the recent past. β
The characteristic of his business is to look at people.
I used to walk the streets and alleys and watch people all day long, but now although I have a serious storefront, I don't know that I belong to the first-class liar, but I still take the time to walk around and take a look, and take my apprentices with me to learn his craft.
"I'll tell you, my good county lord, it's not clean here, but don't stay, you know, the front one, the head of the household is surnamed Chen, called Chen Wen, the one who is the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, by the way, he has just been dismissed recently, oops, he is the waiter of the Ministry of Rites This matter is not much that no one pays attention to, the court's waiter will change once in a few years, but he and Su Yunniang, Su Damei's love story, that is a household name, not to mention the capital, outsiders are very concerned, when I was out to tell fortunes, countless little girls, young men came to me to see marriage, said that he wanted a Chen Wen, or he wanted a Su Yunniang. β
"You also know, although Su Yunniang was Chen Wen's fiancΓ©e back then, she had a cousin who was a childhood sweetheart. Her cousin is better than Chen Wen, born with a better appearance, is the dream lover of thousands of girls in the capital, and his reading is even more outstanding, and he is Su Xiangye's proud protΓ©gΓ©, he has to be valued by Xiangye, and wants to give him his beloved daughter, but unfortunately, Su Meiren values love and righteousness and refuses to withdraw from the marriage. Her cousin was frustrated. left the capital and went away, and there was no trace of it, and for this matter, even Su Yunniang herself was not happy. It's that Chen Wen. It seems to be quite proud. From time to time, he mentioned this matter with his literati friends, and he was very caring. But who doesn't know, where is he worried about others, obviously he is very proud! β
Wang Banxian sighed.
However, getting a beauty that the pride of the sky likes is indeed worthy of his pride.
"Look, now that Su Da Meiren's soul has died early, can she rest assured that she can rest assured of her man? Maybe you're wandering around. β
Wang Banxian lowered his voice, "I'm not talking nonsense, my informant said a few days ago that someone near here saw a female ghost, with a cloak of hair, which is scary." β
Hongchen smiled.
Wang Banxian's informant is just a bunch of little beggars, who eat together in the capital, or Hongchen's idea for him.
He used to pay for clues, but it was not as good as now, he spent less money and got more news.
"Because of the evil nature of this place, I didn't even dare to make a game here."
Usually encounter a place where there is a legend of ghosts and the like, a group of scammers usually add fuel to the fire, take this opportunity to do business profits, but in the scammer industry for a long time, what kind of business can be done, what kind of business can not be done, to be able to distinguish clearly, like the current one, is the kind that should not be touched.
As for how to determine it, it's hard to say, anyway, it's not all based on intuition, it's more experience.
Wang Banxian chattered.
Hongchen squinted, raised his fingers, and whispered, "Listen." β
Not far ahead, there was a sudden roar.
Bang bang, bang bang.
There are also eerie tapping sounds.
Suddenly the wind rose, and even the rain fell heavier.
"Woo-woo-"
Bursts of strange voices rang out one after another, and Wang Banxian pounced and sat on the ground.
Hongchen grabbed him, and then smiled: "Image, image, we still have to catch 'ghosts' in a while, you are a first-class person in the world, if this appearance is seen by your guests, business will not be good." β
Before the words fell, Wang Banxian suddenly stood up straight.
Although his face was still pale, his majestic appearance was indeed more like a spirit master than most real spirit masters, but he moved his steps and clinged to Hongchen's side: "County Lord, I'm old, you are a young man, but you should charge into battle." β
"Ahh
At this time, the door of the Chen family in front of him opened.
A large group of subordinates rolled out of the door, scattering and fleeing, the last one was Chen Wen, but as soon as he left the gate, he shivered, and fell back again, howling and crying.
Hongchen waited for a while, and when this person was crying so much that his voice was hoarse, he stepped forward and pretended to be very surprised: "Lord Chen? What's wrong with you? Oh my God, didn't you restore the house as I said? β
Chen Wen snorted and cried, crying all over his body.
"County, county lord, help, help!"
Hongchen took a step forward, entered the door, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the entire courtyard was bleak and cold.
As soon as she entered the bedroom, she suddenly found that everything in the room was disorganized, the ornaments fell to the ground, and some jewelry was rolling on the ground, two big pearls fell on the stone steps outside, and a portrait of Su Yunniang was also spread on the ground and split into two pieces.
Chen Wen shuddered as soon as he walked.
Wang Banxian opened his mouth and said: "The weight of grievances and grievances in this place, I have only seen it in my life, county lord, let's leave quickly, don't care about this idle matter." β
Chen Wen gritted his teeth tightly.
Bang.
Inside, the cabinet fell to the ground.
It shook so hard that I couldn't feel it at all outside.
Chen Wen's face turned even paler.
Hongchen made a blank face, looked down at Chen Wen, who was covered in water and didn't know whether it was rain or sweat, and said coldly: "Now I can't save you, I'm afraid you can only save yourself, immediately tell what you think in your heart, and you can still be saved, otherwise, the gods will not be able to save themselves from looking for death." β
Chen Wen's face turned even paler, and he shouted loudly: "No, no, no ......"
Bang.
A large piece of tile fell from the roof and smashed on his head, causing his head to bleed and his head to dizzy.
The stomach was throbbing and throbbing, and his head hurt, he was sweating and holding back, obviously not the first time it hurt, he took out a handful of pills from his arms, stuffed them all into his mouth in one breath, and gasped heavily.
Chen Wen couldn't stand and slowly sat on the ground, his face full of fear.
Hongchen lowered his voice: "Look up, what is that?" β
He didn't want to look up, but listening to Hongchen's voice, he couldn't help but raise his head and stiffened all of a sudden.
I don't know what he saw, and his whole body began to swing and tremble.
"Ahh Why did you come to me? Yun Niang, you know, I didn't kill you, I didn't, you died of illness, you got sick, everyone has birth, old age, sickness and death, how can people not die, you hurry up, why are you pestering me! β
Hongchen frowned, squatted down and patted him on the shoulder, and said softly: "If you think about it carefully, think about it clearly, do you really have a clear conscience?" If people have a clear conscience and are not invaded by all evils, what are you afraid of? β
"It's not my fault!"
Chen Wen muttered.
At this moment, there was a boom, accompanied by a shining electric light, a muffled thunder in the sky, sparks flew everywhere, and a cluster of unknown flowers and plants in the corner of the wall burst into flames.
Chen Wen's pupils contracted instantly, his heart beat faster, he couldn't bear it anymore, and began to yell: "Why are you still pestering me, you know how hard I've been over the years, others say when they see me, I am blessed, I have a wife who values love and righteousness, my wife is good to me, so I have to be good to my wife, I can't be negative, there is a little bit of badness, that is my sin, who made me eat soft rice, I relied on my wife's maiden family to change the lintel, if it weren't for the Su family, I would be a fart!" β
His voice was hoarse, and even a little delirious, "Do you know, I'm so uncomfortable with you, but Xiaoman is different, how beautiful she is, how kind she is, and she is also squeamish, I am with her, I am like a man, I promised her, I want to marry her, Ming Media is marrying, you are not very understanding?" You said it yourself, people should be worthy of their own hearts, worthy of their own feelings, you had the courage to rebel against the family for love, I also have the courage, you should support me, right? You shouldn't cry with me, you shouldn't go home and complain, if you ruin my future, no, you shouldn't exist, you don't exist. β
Wang Banxian: "......"
Hongchen was also speechless.
This man speaks upside down and without logic.
If he really wants to do such a thing, where does he need Su Yunniang to sue? Besides, the Su family is not as good as before, Su Xiangye is gone, although there are still protΓ©gΓ©s who are old, but in the end, people go to tea and cool, that is, Su Yunniang really went to sue, and the damage to him was at most a little reputation, to be honest, today's saints value their reputation, but they don't care about the reputation of their courtiers, and they like to use some courtiers with stains on their bodies, what is this guy afraid of?
"Where do you have the face to come to me...... I'm not sorry for you at all......"
"Fart!" (To be continued.) )
