Bi-moon (Jiu)
For three days in a row, Bai Wan spent time at Li Yu'an's home. Mother Li likes this little girl very much, I don't know if she will be surprised if she knows Bai Wan's deeds of opening the wall with her bare hands.
Bai Wan found that Li Yu'an's cooking skills were actually good, especially the osmanthus cake she made, which was sweet to her heart. Slowly, Bai Wan and Li Yu'an talked more, making jokes from time to time, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Until noon on the fourth day, just as Bai Wan and Li Yu'an were about to clean up the dishes and chopsticks they had eaten, a young man in plain clothes appeared in the sight of the two.
"Boss, I've been looking for you for a few days, but I've found you. Xiao Mu trotted all the way to Bai Wan's face, his eyes full of excitement.
"Xiao Mu, how did you find here?" Bai Wan was stunned for a moment when she saw him, and then her face was surprised.
Xiao Mu glanced at Li Yu'an beside Bai Wan and didn't speak in a hurry.
Li Yu'an is a smart person, he knows that since Xiao Mu can find here, there must be something important, and of course this kind of thing can't be known to an outsider from the six doors.
"It's tiring to stand outside, go in and talk. Li Yu'an beckoned and motioned for the two to go in and talk.
Bai Wan and Xiao Mu knew each other and nodded, and then Bai Wan led Xiao Mu into the house. Li Yu'an stood outside the door alone, and after the two entered the house, he lowered his head and continued to wash the dishes and chopsticks.
There are some things that you still don't want to know too clearly.
............
"Come, let's drink saliva first. Bai Wan poured a bowl of water for Xiao Mu, and the latter drank it all in one gulp and didn't forget to wipe his mouth.
"Boss, you don't know how much effort I've gone to find you. Xiao Mu looked at him, still panting, obviously his excitement had not calmed down.
"How did you find here?" Bai Wan asked as she sat beside him, a little puzzled.
"Have you forgotten what our six doors are best at? Xiao Mu replied with a somewhat boastful tone.
"Well, I know you're good at tracking. Say, what are you looking for me?" Bai Wan asked.
Xiao Mu regained his serious demeanor, "Boss, a good news, a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
"Let's start with the good news. Bai Wan said.
Xiao Mu coughed lightly twice, "The good news is that I found out that Qian San had been to a pawn shop before he was killed, and he worked there as a picture of the mountains and moons. It's a job, and it can be redeemed at any time. ”
"I heard that Qian San loves landscape calligraphy and painting, and he is not short of silver taels, why did he suddenly take away his beloved calligraphy and painting?" Bai Wan couldn't help but be a little puzzled. "And what about the bad news?"
Xiao Mu sighed, then looked at Bai Wan, "Boss, you are wanted by Luo Jian." ”
"What!" Bai Wan almost got up from the case, and the strength of the palm on the table could clearly see that there was an obvious crack on the wooden table.
"Why does Luo Jian want me!" Bai Wan's emotions became a little excited, and she shouted at Xiao Mu.
"Boss, don't be angry just yet. Luo Jian said that you bent the law for personal gain, abused your power for personal gain, and also found thousands of taels of silver tickets in your residence. Now Luo Jian has sent everyone who can be dispatched from the six doors to arrest you back, fortunately I found you one step ahead of them, otherwise if they find you, I really don't know what will happen. Xiao Mu also stood up, patted Bai Wan's shoulder and said.
"I didn't bend the law for personal gain! It was Luo Jian who framed me! I don't have thousands of miles of silver tickets in my house at all!" Bai Wanqi's face turned red, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.
"Boss, I definitely believe that Luo Jian framed you, but we have no evidence now, and there is no way to prove your innocence. Xiao Mu said helplessly.
"Luo Jian did this just to prevent me from finding out the truth, he was afraid, afraid that he would also be pulled into the water. Finally, Bai Wan's mood improved, but it was still difficult to hide her anger.
"Boss, do you have a clue about that case?" asked Xiao Mu with some surprise.
Bai Wan nodded, "I'm going to go out, and I have to find out about this matter." As he spoke, he turned around and walked out the door.
"Don't be a boss, if they catch you when you go out now, you'll be in trouble. Yi Luojian's temperament will definitely be cut to the roots. Xiao Mu grabbed Bai Wan and said with some eagerness.
"That's better than being here and waiting to be killed. She wanted to break free of Xiao Mu's hand, but found that the latter was holding on to it.
"Boss, don't worry. Everyone knows what you usually do to your brothers, and if it weren't for Luo Jian's order, they wouldn't have thought of coming to arrest you. In this case, I will go back for you to say hello to those brothers, and delay the time for you, you see. Xiao Mu said while dragging Bai Wan.
Bai Wan sighed a little helplessly after hearing this, and her original impulse calmed down. What Xiao Mu said makes sense, if he goes out now, he will throw himself into the net, if he is caught by Luo Jian, it will be all over.
"Okay, I promise you won't go out. You go back and tell those brothers that I was falsely accused, and I will definitely find evidence to prove my innocence. ”
Xiao Mu saw that Bai Wan had calmed down a little, so he also breathed a sigh of relief. After a few more words, he said goodbye and left. After all, he also sneaked out, and it was easy to be discovered if it took too long.
Xiao Mu walked out of the house and saw Li Yu'an leaning against a tree in front of the house, quietly basking in the sun.
Xiao Mu glanced at him and walked past him. Just as he was about to rub shoulders with him, he stopped
"Take care of her, I won't let you go if something happens to her. Xiao Mu's tone was cold and slightly threatening. He didn't look at Li Yu'an, as if he was talking to himself.
After hearing this, Li Yu'an lowered his head and smiled faintly, "If you want to die, I will die in front." ”
The two passed by, as if they had never communicated, and as if they had talked for a long time.
............
Li Yu'an entered the house and saw Bai Wan sitting on the chair a little distracted. He walked over and patted her.
"What are you thinking?"
Hearing Li Yu'an's words, she came back to her senses and shook her head.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. She subconsciously twisted her head to the side.
"Stinky boy, your osmanthus cake is going to be paste!" At this moment, there was a shout from Mother Li from the kitchen.
"It's coming. Li Yu'an replied, "If it's okay, I'll help my mother." He said to Bai Wan, then turned around and prepared to walk to the kitchen.
"Don't you want to know what Xiao Mu told me just now?" Just as he turned around, Bai Wan's voice sounded behind him.
Li Yu'an shook his head, "There are some things that you don't want to say, and I won't ask." ”
"Qian San went to a pawn shop and became a picture of the mountains and moons, and I suspect that he hid the lost ledger in the mountains and moons. Bai Wan said lightly.
"So you want to ......" Li Yu'an didn't turn away.
"I want to ask you to go to the pawn shop and get back that mountain and moon map. Bai Wan lowered her head, as if this was a difficult thing to speak.
"No problem. Li Yu'an smiled and agreed very easily.
It seems that he simply went to the pawnshop to get back a painting, but the murderous motive hidden in it is self-evident.
You must know that Sun Qiu's assassins outside now, the six doors are all staring, and if you are not careful, something big will happen.
"Thank you. Bai Wan lowered her head and thanked silently.
"In the future, you and I don't have to say these two words. “
............
Li Yu'an's trip to the pawnshop went surprisingly smoothly, under the pretext that Qian San brought someone to redeem the mountain and moon map, and the pawnshop owner took it out without saying a word. Li Yu'an also happily paid a ransom of five hundred taels of silver, and that was all the silver on him.
Li Yu'an, who has always cherished money, didn't even blink his eyes when he took out the silver.
............
Li Yu'an returned home with the mountain and moon map, and spread it out with Bai Wan and the others, and just by a glance, he could see that something was wrong with this picture.
"The thickness of rice paper painted in ink can generally be uncovered in three layers, and the corners of this picture of mountains and moons are obviously slightly thicker, which shows that there must be something sandwiched between these three layers of rice paper. Bai Wan gently stroked the mountain and moon map and said.
"Then uncover it. After that, Li Yu'an went with a knife and a basin of water, and the tip of the knife was dipped in water and unveiled the mountain and moon map layer by layer from the corner. Sure enough, a piece of tissue paper was sandwiched between the mezzanine of this mountain and moon map.
Bai Wan carefully picked up the thin paper, and after just looking at it, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"Sun Qiu, the king of Jingping, on the ninth day of the fifth month of the third year of Hongjia, took one million taels of silver and transported it to the border commander Wang Huan to pay for food and salary. Wang Huan then allocated 300,000 taels to purchase iron tools through the hands of the casino. ”
"It seems that this Sun Qiu really wants to rebel. Li Yu'an was also frowning at the moment.
"Such an important thing must be handed over to the Three Law Divisions, and then the Three Law Divisions will report to the Holy Lord. Bai Wan put the page of the ledger in her arms, looked at Li Yu'an and said with a serious face.
"What are you doing. At this time, Mother Li walked out of the room, and couldn't help but be a little surprised when she looked at the actions of the two.
"I feel like the rats are coming, do me a favor. Li Yu'an looked at Bai Wan and winked.
The latter nodded, walked behind Li Mu as usual, and instantly knocked Li Mu unconscious with a hand knife.
"Mother, I'm sorry, if Yu'an gets through this difficulty, I will be doubly filial to you. With that, Li Yu'an carried the unconscious Mother Li back to the room, locked the door, and then the two sat in front of the hall, quietly as if waiting for something.
"When will you teach me to cook? Bai Wan looked at him and asked with a relaxed smile.
"You can't even cook, how can you marry in the future?" Li Yu'an smiled and said leisurely.
"So, I'm also very worried. Bai Wan shook her head and said helplessly.
"It's not a big deal, I will. ”
"Yes, you will. ”
The fragile wooden door was kicked open, kicking up dust and wood chips all over the room. A burly, hideous-looking figure appeared in the sight of the two, holding a steel knife in his hand, and looked at the two with a cruel smile.
"I finally found it. The burly man licked his lips, and for a moment the smell of blood permeated.
Bai Wan looked at Li Yu'an, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
"Do you think I can still eat the osmanthus cake you made?"
"Absolutely. ”
