Chapter 103: Windfall
Yu Wensi stared at him and asked, "Who are you that tall man who knows you?" It disturbs you. ”
Han Donglang yelled impatiently: "No comment, it's none of your business, think more about how to solve the case!" In less than three months in your turf, there have been eight cases in a row, and you should reflect on it. ”
Yu Wensi's eyebrows rose upward, and he roared angrily: "Where are the eight cases? I can't get your turn to yell at me, if you can't stay any longer, go back to Chang'an immediately, out of sight and out of mind. ”
Han Donglang felt that he was a little out of shape just now, and hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "You can't take my turn to accuse you, but you can't even remember a few cases that have happened recently, are you still worthy of being the parent official of Qionglong City?" In any case, although I am not your direct leader, I am also qualified to impeach you by the emperor's side. ”
Yu Wensi listened to his tone soften, and then lowered his voice and said: "Maybe some cases were caused by you, I don't blame you, you are here to set up a straight shelf, who is afraid of whom?" It's a big deal, this stabbing history. ”
Han Donglang said calmly: "If you are angry in front of me, it is your business not to assassinate Shi, but you have to work one day at a time, and you are worthy of the money that the court gave you." I do not deny that some cases have been initiated by me, so I have stayed here to assist you in your investigation. Now that Ren Youlan has been delaying sending Han Chenxing back, why? Can you tell me the truth? ”
Yu Wensi didn't answer, lowered his head and pondered for a while, then looked up at him and said, "I sorted out the seven cases you just mentioned, and the crow nine sword and the green dragon sword in Wang Caishun's pawnshop were stolen in turn; Immediately after that, the Blue Dragon Glaive and the Cold Moon Knife were stolen; The two martial arts cheats of "Wuyuan" and "Qi Hai" in Youlan Academy were stolen; The Kunlun mirror here in Yihong Mansion, the cold moon and the cold star, was stolen; Hua Yanping was killed; Cold Moon and Cold Star were kidnapped with you, and you came back, but Cold Moon and Cold Star are still missing; Hanyue Wenyu's adopted daughter, Hanyue Xiaotao, was murdered, causing her love Hanyue Jingyun to disappear; Fifteen pieces of gold that Kim Chol-sun had fished up from a well were robbed. No, maybe the order of occurrence may not be very accurate, but in the following opinion, there are at least three cases that are inseparable from you. Whether you're angry or not, I'm telling the truth. ”
Han Donglang nodded and said, "Whether it has anything to do with me or not, now I have to find Han Chenxing first, and then I can concentrate all my time and energy on solving the case." ”
The corners of Yu Wensi's mouth tugged slightly: "Maybe you don't have to worry about the matter of Han Chenxing, the person who knew you just now walked towards Youlan Academy, with my sixth sense, maybe he went towards Han Chenxing, maybe this person has an extraordinary relationship with Ren Youlan." ”
Han Donglang was a little bit by him, and suddenly remembered that his friend mentioned that he had lost his cousin when he was a child, but the fake Ren Youlan was his friend's cousin. Ren Youlan's kidnapping of Han Chenxing may have been secretly instigated by a friend, so she might as well make a surprise attack.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly said, "I'll go to Youlan Academy, you guys take care of yourself." ”
Yu Wensi suddenly said loudly: "It's exactly what I want, let's go to Youlan Academy together!" ”
"No, I want to go and find out the truth alone. You said that Han Chenxing's whereabouts are unknown, and I think she belongs to Youlan Academy, don't believe it, we'll see. Without waiting for Yuwensi to squeak, he turned around and ran out.
Han Donglang ran to the street, and suddenly saw that friend walking in the direction of Hanyue Wenyu's house with his head drooping, and hurriedly followed behind, but he suddenly turned around and walked towards Meng Chenyuan's pastry shop. Han Donglang wondered if maybe he had found himself, or if he could hear his own footsteps. Hanyue Wenyu and Hanyue Wenqing are the same mother, Hanyue Wenqing is the opener of the cabinet, the brothers' house is next to each other, could it be that the target of the friend is the cabinet of Hanyue Wenqing, is it really that he instructed people to rob the fifteen pieces of gold? Isn't it doubtful that they haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and suddenly fell from the sky to the well? Should he be taken to the Pingjiang Prefecture Office for an examination? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but step into the pastry shop.
He Xiangling was talking to a friend, Han Donglang was thinking about his fellow countryman and seeing his fellow countryman, and he would inevitably talk a few words of common words, why didn't he hide in a corner first and let them talk enough. I was about to raise my legs and sit at the table in the corner, but I didn't expect to be discovered by Meng Chenyuan.
"Dali Sizhi, you haven't returned to Chang'an yet?"
Meng Chenyuan's high decibel attracted the attention of his friends.
My friend hurriedly came over and asked, "Brother, why is it so coincidental?" I was about to eat my fill of pastries and go to you, but you showed up here, so let's talk here! Anyway, it's a fellow's shop, just ask him to arrange a box for us. ”
He Xiangling said happily: "No problem, I have a treat at noon, what pastries do you want to eat, you can open your belly and eat enough, I will serve it to you." ”
My friend smiled and said, "As long as you have one cake in the store, you can have one for each of them, and I can't finish eating and packing, I want to try your craftsmanship and see if you have grown." ”
Han Donglang hurriedly asked, "Do you often come here to eat cakes?" What are you here for? ”
Meng Chenyuan hurriedly continued: "I come once a year in all seasons, but this year it seems that I have come a few more times, almost once a month, maybe for some of He Xiangling's relatives!" I heard that she was kidnapped, and she has not yet found her whereabouts. ”
The friend suddenly glared angrily and scolded: "Look at you, a big man is like a stinky woman, twittering and annoying, it's none of your business, get out of the way." Otherwise, Hugh blames my fist for not recognizing people. ”
He Xiangling rushed over and shouted, "Han Dongjun, what are you yelling at?" Do you think that you are friends with Han Donglang, and you can bully people casually because he is an official of the imperial court, and my husband is not wrong, don't you frequent my store this year? You're not for the cold morning star, but for whom? The story of your pursuit of her for many years without success, my brother-in-law Han Chenyue once told me 1510. You can't get Han Chenxing, jealous of Han Donglang, you two men like my brother-in-law's sister, who doesn't know who in your hometown? Actually, I was optimistic about you and Han Chenxing at the beginning, after all, you are the same age, and Han Donglang is really too old, and he has a wife, so he is not a good match for Han Chenxing. Don't know why, Han Chenxing just loves Han Donglang and doesn't like you, even if you live near Yihong Mansion to chase Han Chenxing, Han Chenxing will not be moved by you, not to mention that she has not come back after being kidnapped. Whoever rescues Han Chenxing first between the two of you has the greatest hope of getting her. If you don't believe me, give it a try. ”
Han Donglang glanced at Han Dongjun, stood up slowly, walked towards the pastry shop cabinet without a sound, selected six kinds of pastries, returned to his seat, but Han Dongjun was gone, and when he looked up, he saw Ren Youlan standing in front of him.
Surprised, he asked, "Did you come here to eat pastries?" ”
"No, I'm looking for someone. The servant told me that a tall man came to me and told me to come and wait for him when I came home and it was almost supper time. ”
Han Donglang hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you know him?" Why is he looking for you? Is it the first time I'm looking for you, or do I often go to your Youlan Academy? ”
Ren Youlan said bluntly: "There is nothing to hide from you, judging from the appearance introduced by the servant, maybe it is Han Dongjun!" ”
"It's me, Han Dongjun. Ren Youlan, you're finally here, I went to relieve myself just now. Will you sit down and eat pastries with us, or will you invite us to Julongzhai for a big dinner? ”
Ren Youlan looked at Han Donglang and said, "I invited Han Dongjun to Julongzhai for a big dinner alone, I don't want to invite you." Dongjun, let's go. Then he pulled up Han Dongjun's sleeve and walked away without anyone else.
Han Donglang looked at their eyebrows, and couldn't help but think that Han Dongjun was a talent, heroic, and had a set of skills that no one could match to win the hearts of women, and he couldn't reach it. When did they meet? How? There may be an unusual flavor in it, so you might as well ask Meng Chenyuan about the reason.
Meng Chenyuan, who was standing in front of the counter, caught a glimpse of Han Donglang waving at her, and hurriedly came over and asked, "Lord Han, what are your orders?" ”
Han Donglang stretched out his hand to cover his mouth and said, "I have something to do with you, it's not convenient to talk here, can you take me to find a safe place?" ”
"Let's go to my room and talk!" Meng Chenyuan led Han Donglang to his guest room, closed the door, made a cup of tea and handed it to him, "You want to ask Han Dongjun about it!" He interrupted him in the middle of what he had just said. There's a lot to do with him, you don't ask, I want to take some time to talk to you. ”
"Oh, you're quite smart, no wonder He Xiangling came all the way to marry you, and he didn't even care about his father's family. However, you're only half right, and there's one more thing you don't expect to know about. Delay you for a few minutes, He Xiangling in the store is too busy! ”
"No problem, she can do a lot of things, just ask if you have anything!"
"Well, I won't embarrass you. There is a cabinet shop at the end of the street near your house, which is said to be opened by Hanyue Wenqing's family, and the cabinet shop in Qionglong City is mainly engaged in something, can you tell me more about it? ”
Meng Chenyuan said heartily: "This is not a difficult matter, my family also has business dealings with his family." Hanyue Wenqing's family not only has a cabinet, but also a flying money. The business is to keep gold and silver property on behalf of merchants, collect a certain rent, and when merchants need to use it, they can withdraw it with posts or tokens. The items hidden in his family's cabinet were mainly money and corn, and there was very little gold. Money, part of the cabinet is its own funds, part of it is other people's deposits. Because of the large amount of money in the cabinet, the rich are willing to deposit money. Silk, millet, and wheat other than money were collateral for peasants to borrow money. The main object of exploitation in the cabinet workshop is still the peasantry. Now people widely use copper coins, copper coins weigh six catties and four taels per run, and it is important to carry a large number of copper coins out of the house, which is heavy and very inconvenient. There is a cabinet shop on the street to save money on behalf of people, which is naturally very conducive to the development of commerce, and some people store copper coins in the cabinet in advance, and it is more convenient to take them when they buy and sell. This is a reflection of the great development of the commodity economy in our Tang Dynasty. Why do you ask this? Don't you like the cabinet shop? ”
