Chapter 167: Layout (I)
In the middle of the night, they made a detailed plan to lure the snake out of the hole.
But this required the cooperation of many parties, and the next day, the group went their separate ways and carried out their tasks strictly.
Nie Shuyao's task was to invite Pang Yujuan to Desheng Building, and at the same time tell her that she had won the case.
She walked to the Yuelai Inn with Yuqin, and as soon as she arrived at the door, she saw Xu Guangfa who was surrendering to someone outside the inn.
"Oh, isn't this Miss Nie? I don't know if Miss Nie needs the old man's help with anything. Xu Guangfa's eyes were sharp, and when he looked up, he saw Nie Shuyao, and he took the opportunity to bow his hand to her.
Nie Shuyao said with a smile: "Mr. Xu is early, there must be something to trouble Mr. Xu, and in a few days Shuyao will definitely come to visit Mr. Xu, but this time the little girl is here to find the girl Pang who lives in Tianzihao." ”
"Oh, that girl." Xu Guangfa nodded, he was no stranger to that Pang girl.
"The girl?" Nie Shuyao felt that there were a lot of meanings expressed in these words.
Xu Guangfa smiled and said: "This Yuelai Inn is actually the property of our Xu firm, and the old man knows exactly who lives in it. That girl has never been in this small shop since she came in, and there are three religions and nine streams in and out every day, so the shopkeeper has a lot of worries. ”
"Oh-" Nie Shuyao nodded and said with a smile: "Understood, understood." But today, the little girl still has to meet the terrible Miss Pang, please ask Mr. Xu to help spread it. ”
"Okay, girl, please wait in the tea room."
The two politely entered the Yuelai Inn.
Yuelai Inn is the best inn in Fucheng, covering an area of not small, is a three-story building. Tianzi room, on the top floor, the room is north and south, and all the facilities are the best.
The tea room is also the first of its kind at Yuelai Inn, which is located in the lobby on the first floor. In Nie Shuyao's view, it is a bit like a backroom tea restaurant, a good place to chat and talk about business.
She admired the innovation of Xu's firm, which was a novelty in the Ming Dynasty. This is not a formal tea house, it is very quiet inside, and there are small snacks to try.
After a long time, Nie Shuyao was almost finished drinking a pot of tea, and Pang Yujuan came down with grace.
Nie Shuyao looked at her with a smile, without a trace of dissatisfaction on her face. knew that Pang Yujuan did it on purpose, but she couldn't let her see that she was angry, and she would be relieved when she took out all her silver!
Pang Yujuan sat beside Nie Shuyao in a very beautiful manner, and said with a smile: "The tea here is good." ”
"So-so."
"Humph! Hard mouth. Pang Yujuan sneered and said, "Say, what's the matter." ”
Nie Shuyao said: "I came to you this time to have a big deal to tell you. ”
"Speak!" Pang Yujuan was in a good mood, took the tea handed over by Chunliu and took a sip gently.
In this way, Nie Shuyao got straight to the point and said: "I won this bet, and Feng Wuya will be acquitted this afternoon." ”
"What?" Pang Yujuan stood up and said loudly.
"I hope you can go to Desheng Building this afternoon and remember to bring the silver taels, that's all." Nie Shuyao also got up as she spoke, but turned around and walked towards the door.
"You wait!" Pang Yujuan took a quick step, grabbed her arm, and asked, "Impossible, all kinds of evidence show that the murderer is Feng Wuya, how can the prefect release him?" Are you lying to me? ”
Pang Yujuan's voice was very loud, which made everyone in the tea room look sideways; But when the shopkeeper saw that it was her, he didn't speak, just frowned slightly, which showed Pang Yujuan's influence.
Nie Shuyao broke her fingers and said unhappily: "Miss Huge, please be careful!" How could Feng Wuya be a murderer? We must be based on facts in everything we investigate the case, and you can only make the relatives hurt and the enemies happy! ”
"Huh? I am based on the facts, I have found a lot of witnesses, and they all promised to testify in the court trial a few days later, and identified Qi Er who was strangled by Feng Wuya. Pang Yujuan retorted.
"What witness?" Nie Shuyao asked rhetorically.
Another purpose of her coming here was to find out what Pang Yujuan posted the reward for, it turned out that she subjectively thought that Feng Wuya was the murderer, and finding a witness to identify him thought that the case was exposed.
Pang Yujuan said: "Sister Wan'er said it well, you are too cunning, and you were almost deceived by you." Sue you, and the truth of this case will be revealed in three days. ”
Nie Shuyao rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "It's still three days later, didn't I just say it?" Feng Wuya will be acquitted this afternoon. If you don't believe it, you can go to Desheng Building to have a look, this afternoon Wu Shizi is going to hold a banquet to shock Feng Wuya. That's all it takes, farewell! ”
Pulling out his arm, Nie Shuyao strode away.
Pang Yujuan followed behind, puzzled: "What Wu Shizi?" Wu Feng? Isn't he Wu Zhonghou's second son, how did he become the son of the world. ”
Nie Shuyao walked in front and said unhurriedly: "I don't know about this, you can ask in person." ”
"Hey, hey." Pang Yujuan didn't walk as fast as her, so she had to stomp her feet at the door of the inn.
Chunliu persuaded on the side: "Miss, don't listen to her nonsense, Nie Shuyao is used to lying and acting." ”
Pang Yujuan was still worried, turned around and returned to the Yuelai Inn, and said, "Chunliu, wait for the change of clothes, go to Desheng Building to see what the hell they are doing." ”
Chunliu said: "Then we won't wait for Miss Wan'er?" ”
Jiang Wan'er was sent by Pang Yujuan to inquire about the news, but she would spend a hundred taels of silver from her every day, and she also found those witnesses.
"Don't wait, maybe she has been invited to Desheng Building a long time ago." Pang Yujuan is not stupid, thinking of the relationship between Jiang Wan'er and his senior brother, he knows what he has done with Jiang Wan'er, and Nie Shuyao knows it clearly.
"Humph! My two thousand taels are not so easy to take. Pang Yujuan snorted coldly and went upstairs.
Nie Shuyao and Yuqin walked slowly towards Desheng Building, and the popularity on Fucheng Street was still so strong, and they were not slowed down by a person's abnormal death.
The hawkers on the street come and go, looking up at all kinds of signboards, swaying in a bustling scene. However, there are several white notices posted on the blue brick and stone walls.
Nie Shuyao frowned, she wouldn't be the first to post at will!
There is a special place for the government to post notices, and her last painting search revelation was posted casually, and you can still see it, and there is a notice posted by someone else on the side.
Walking forward, it was Pang Yujuan's "Revelation for Finding Witnesses", which said that in the case of Deshenglou, if someone in the know provided clues or testified against the prisoner, she would pay accordingly.
"Huh!" Nie Shuyao sneered, "I really have money and nowhere to spend it." ”
She didn't think that she would be able to find the real witnesses in this way, didn't Xu Guangfa say that recently, people from all walks of life and nine streams have been running to their Yuelai Inn, just for the reward.
"Alas, it's not easy for Miss Pang to have not been cheated out of her money until now." She shook her head and walked towards Desheng Tower again with Yuqin.
walked to the place where the government posted the notice, and just saw a new notice, Nie Shuyao felt that the matter was half done.
Deshenglou's popularity in the past few days has finally recovered a little lively, and the Changsheng class also continued to sing, but the play "Mandarin Duck Mistake" is not daring to sing for the time being.
At this time, it was just noon, and the stage was singing "The Story of the West Chamber", and there were not many people watching it in the audience, but there was also a bustling sound, and the tragedy of the previous day seemed to be about to be forgotten.
Nie Shuyao went upstairs and sighed as she walked: "People, it's just so forgetful!" ”
"Sister!" Nie Tianxi walked down briskly from the second floor, helped her away, and said with a smile: "Sister, the prefect agreed." ”
Nie Shuyao said with a smile: "What is beneficial to him, he will naturally agree, not to mention that Feng Wuya is not a murderer." ”
When they got to the private room on the second floor, it happened that this was the place where they had eaten last time. R1152
