Chapter 85: A Slap to the Head
"Oh, I see, he lives in that house, I want to see him. I wonder if it's possible? Han Donglang asked with trepidation.
"He is very high-minded, a lonely self-admirer, who does not deal with ordinary people, does not look at ordinary women, does not listen to ordinary songs, and rarely accostes people in the monastery. I never went out before, but since a beautiful singing and dancing artist came to Yihong Mansion, I sneaked out to listen to the songs, you want to see him, it's difficult. The little monk shook his head and said.
Han Donglang smiled: "You just need to tell me his address, as for whether he wants to see me, that's my own business." ”
The little monk shook his head and said: "Donor, please don't embarrass me, to be honest, the elusive monk Kunsheng, I don't know where he lives, you go find him yourself!" ”
Han Donglang saw that he bent over and swept the floor and didn't want to take care of himself, so he also went back. Along the way, I wondered what is the relationship between Yuwensi and Monk Kunsheng? Can you ask him bluntly who painted the portrait and see if he will tell him the truth?
Thinking about it, I heard Yu Wensi behind me ask, "What are you doing with me?" Don't trust me? What did you ask the little monk? ”
Han Donglang saw that he had found himself and was waiting under the tree, so he had to ask bluntly: "I saw you walking this way, and I felt strange, so I followed you quietly." How did you get involved with the monk, was the portrait painted by the monk? How's the drawing? ”
Yuwen Si was slightly stunned: "Didn't you ask knowingly?" Coming out of the monastery, isn't it a monk's painting? He is very familiar with the cold moon and cold stars, and the painting is like a real person, and he can post a missing person notice when he returns to the official office and writes the honorarium, has he thought about the honorarium? ”
The two of them talked while walking, and unconsciously returned to the Pingjiang Prefecture Government Office, Han Donglang stepped into the door and said: "I can't say how much the honorarium is, after all, you are a local parent official, and the situation is familiar and understood, so it's up to you to decide!" ”
Yu Wensi said domineeringly: "I don't know what your family background is, how can I set a number for you?" Either raise a reference price, 100,000 taels of silver, how about it? Whether the cold moon and cold stars are worth this price in your heart, you can make up your own mind. ”
Han Donglang's eyes widened when he heard this, and he asked loudly: "It's not a question of whether it's worth the price, but I can't take out so many silver taels at all, I'm a two-sleeved Dali straight, if you really want to write the honorarium, it's only enough to write ten taels of silver, and it's useless to write it if you can't take it out, but it's being talked about by others." ”
Yu Wensi shook his head and said: "Ten taels, it's too little, it's pitiful, you can say it, just write it down, and say that the remuneration is negotiable." ”
Han Donglang's face was flushed and said: "Oh, then write a face-to-face reward at the end, and the honorarium is negotiable." What do you think? ”
Yu Wensi said disdainfully: "I am shy in my pocket, so I can only write like this." I'll tell Si Toguang Changle to post three missing person notices, okay, you sit in my office and wait, the clothes have been brought, and I'll leave later. ”
Han Donglang asked in a low voice: "Well, can you show me the missing person notice?" ”
Yu Wensi immediately handed him the three missing person notices in his hand, Han Donglang took the paper and couldn't wait to open it and take a closer look. Looking at the portrait of the cold moon and cold star on the missing person notice, he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth when he opened his mouth wide.
Seeing this, Yu Wensi asked, "Is the portrait scared you like a real person?" ”
Han Donglang said in surprise: "It's not just one thing! The cold morning star he painted, with curved eyebrows and plump cheeks, is as radiant as life. There are bones with ink, and the color is peculiar and methodical. The depiction is rich in variety, thick and fine, loose and tight, and the pen is also more delicate and delicate than Gu Kaizhi, which is expressive. Han Chenxing's demeanor and demeanor describe the smile vividly on the paper, which is simply alive. It is really unheard of that there is such a painter and monk in the world. It is not inferior to the Danqing myth Yan Liben! ”
Yu Wensi asked solemnly: "How do you know that it was painted by a monk?" I went to Hanshan Temple, and it doesn't mean that the portrait was painted by a monk. Please don't talk nonsense, I'll arrange for it to be posted, and then I'll go to the mountain, if you haven't eaten yet, hurry up and go to the dining hall to drink coarse grain porridge. ”
Han Donglang walked towards the dining hall with a snort, and muttered in his mouth: "I just said that it was painted by a monk, why did I say no in the blink of an eye, playing dumb riddles with myself, playing hide and seek, could it be that there is fraud in it!" Who was the black-clad masked man last night? It seems that this is a case within a case, enough to keep me busy for a while. Settle down and investigate, and you will always be found out one by one. ”
"Who will you find out one by one? Even your cold morning star can't protect it, who else can you find out! It's not early, hurry up and eat, I'll pack up my things and wait for you at the gate, and set off for Qionglong Mountain immediately after dinner. Yu Wensi said rather unhappily.
Han Donglang ran to the dining hall and hurriedly drank some millet porridge, took a nest head and ran to the hall. disappeared Yu Wensi, hurriedly went to the office to find him, and suddenly saw Miao Wuying standing at the door of his office, and asked nervously, "What are you doing here?" Why haven't you returned to Chang'an yet? ”
Miao Wuying cross-examined: "Didn't you go back too?" Why did you ask me about it? I saw the missing person notice you posted and gave you a message, but I don't know how much the honorarium is? ”
"The information provided will not be paid until someone is found. Do you know the whereabouts of the cold moon and cold star? Where is she, please come in and sit down. Yu Wensi frowned.
Miao Wuying said loudly: "On the evening of August 30th, a masked man hijacked Leng Yue Hanxing on the Fengqiao, this is what I saw with my own eyes, I wanted to go forward to save her, but unfortunately I couldn't catch up with the carriage that ran away." ”
Han Donglang asked in surprise: "How did you know, who told you?" Come on. ”
Miao Wuying sighed for a long time: "I just came out of the latrine on the side of the road, and suddenly saw a carriage parked by the river, and a masked man jumped out of the carriage and rushed towards the bridge. I didn't think much about it at the time, but I didn't think much about it until today, when I saw your missing person notice, and after thinking about it for a while, I remembered that the person who seemed to be familiar was Leng Yue Hanxing, a singing and dancing artist from Yihong Mansion! ”
Han Donglang heard the drum in his heart, grabbed Miao Wuying's hand and asked, "How can you be able to catch up with the carriage if you know martial arts?" Where is the carriage going? What do horses and carts look like? Is the masked man in black tall? Is it male or female? How's it going? ”
Miao Wuying hesitated for a moment and said, "The horse seems to be yellow-haired, and the car is reddish-brown." The masked man is of medium height, neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, and his body is very agile, as for whether it is a man or a woman, I really can't tell it, after all, there is a little distance. Moreover, people who know martial arts have black cloth on their faces and are dressed in black clothes, so it is difficult for outsiders to distinguish between men and women. ”
Yu Wensi stared at him and asked, "Are you really sure it's the Cold Moon and Cold Star?" Will it look away? Who will kidnap her? What is it used for? She has no money, she is twenty-five years old, and she is a singing and dancing artist. Those who don't know the truth think that she is no different from a woman in the dust, which man will marry her as a wife? ”
Han Donglang was furious when he heard this, stretched out his hand to clamp Yu Wensi's neck and said, "What did you just say?" Who is similar to the dust woman? She makes a living by singing, and she doesn't sell her body, I don't allow you to insult her, otherwise she will serve with her fists and feet. ”
Yuwensi said in a strange manner: "Poke your sadness!" If you have the ability, go and get her back now, go home and divorce your wife, then marry her, and protect her for the rest of her life! ”
Han Donglang looked at his gloating expression, raised his fist and hit him on the back of the head, Yuwensi suddenly turned around and reached out and slapped him. Han Donglang immediately came to sweep the hall, and Yuwensi fell to the ground and gnawed on the mud in response.
Miao Wuying hurriedly picked up Yu Wensi and said, "You are all people who eat imperial food, why are you fighting for a singing and dancing artist." Can you do it? I'm ashamed of you. They each sat down and bowed to themselves, both of them were at fault, Yuwensi shouldn't hurt people, he knew that Leng Yue Hanxing made a living from performing arts, and he was Han Donglang's sweetheart, even if you were jealous, you shouldn't insult her personality. Han Donglang is the Dali of the imperial court, and he shouldn't beat people, fortunately, only I am present, if I am seen by the people, won't it spread throughout the entire Dome City and become a laughing stock after dinner! ”
Han Donglang sighed and said: "I love Han Chenxing is genuine, and I have loved it for more than ten years. And Yu Wensi doesn't really love her, she just likes her delicate and lovely appearance. Han Chenxing hadn't seen him frown since he disappeared, he didn't feel distressed, let alone weeping, and my tears were almost dry. It seems that the lover is still old, and he can't forget it! ”
Miao Wuying snorted and said, "Not necessarily!" I heard that Leng Yue and Hanxing have another love, so I refused to be your concubine. ”
Han Donglang dragged Miao Wuying's hand and asked, "Did she empathize and don't fall in love?" Which man is who? ”
Miao Wuying looked at him silently, and the scene fell into an embarrassing situation.
Suddenly, Yu Wensi stretched out his finger and poked Han Donglang and roared loudly: "The old lover is such a fart, so good that he lost her, and said that he was good, he was really thick-skinned." If you don't come to Vault City, will Cold Moon and Cold Star be kidnapped? You are a broom star, maybe you will go back to Chang'an, and the cold moon and cold star will return to Yihong Mansion safely and soundly, if you don't believe it, you might as well give it a try. ”
Han Donglang said loudly: "You are full of bad water, I think I don't know!" You want to break me away so that you can attack Han Chenxing and take it for yourself. I'll tell you no way, Han Chenxing will never fall in love with you, you should die of this color heart as soon as possible! ”
Miao Wuying felt that Yuwen Si had something to say, why did he say that Han Donglang went back, and Leng Yue and Hanxing would be able to come back. Could it be that he knows the whereabouts of the cold moon and cold star, or maybe it is a good thing that he did in collusion with others. You might as well go and secretly investigate Yuwensi's behavior. So he said loudly: "If you two want to fight, just fight enough, I don't have time to watch the show." There will be a date later. ”
