Baixiaotang.

When Han Zhaozhi's carriage stopped at the door, Bai Xiaotang's people were in chaos, and the seal of the Criminal Department was only unsealed a while ago, and it had not yet settled down, and the carriage of the Imperial Commander's Mansion stopped at the door again, God knows how big a thing would happen.

After the carriage stopped, Han Zhaozhi stepped down, and the guys from Bai Xiaotang hurriedly trotted out to greet him, nodding and bowing his waist made people feel a little embarrassed, this embarrassment made Han Zhaozhi relieved, it seemed that he felt that such a reaction was real.

"What about Li Baixiao?"

Han Zhaozhi asked.

"The owner is not going out today, why didn't the adults send someone to inform them in advance, if they knew that the adults were coming, the owners would not go out of the house."

"Hmm."

Han Zhaozhi nodded: "It doesn't matter if the people are not there, I'll go in and take a look." ”

The guys' faces were a little strange, and they all seemed to be a little scared, people like Han Zhaozhi stood in front of them, as if they were not afraid, if even the Du Tingwei of the Tingwei Mansion was not afraid, the Tingwei Mansion would be considered a dereliction of duty.

Han Zhaozhi stepped up the steps: "Lead the way, I'll go to Vientiane Grassland." ”

The guys hurriedly responded, and someone ordered: "Lord Han is here, close the door and thank the guests, and entertain Lord Han well." ”

It was Bai Xiaotang's shopkeeper who spoke, a friend of Li Baixiao, named Yuan Xiaoyu.

Yuan Xiaoyu and Li Baixiao are good friends, half of the people in the rivers and lakes know that when Li Baixiao was down, it was Yuan Xiaoyu who continued to help him survive, and even the silver that Li Baixiao opened Baixiao Book House at the beginning was funded by Yuan Xiaoyu, and later Li Baixiao made a fortune, but Yuan Xiaoyu's business failed, last year, Yuan Xiaoyu found Li Baixiao and told him that his business failed, and he sold all his family property to pay off his debts, but he was already penniless.

Li Baixiao didn't say anything at the time and turned around and left, Yuan Xiaoyu felt that the warmth of people was nothing more than that.

But more than an hour later, Li Baixiao came back, holding a document that had been registered with the government, he gave half of Bai Xiaotang's assets to Yuan Xiaoyu, and at the same time made Yuan Xiaoyu the shopkeeper of Bai Xiaotang.

Yuan Xiaoyu is shrewd, the original business was very big, and I don't know what caused the business to collapse completely, but he has been up and down in the business for many years, and there is no problem in doing business.

Han Zhaozhi glanced at Yuan Xiaoyu: "The shopkeeper Yuan is polite." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu hurriedly leaned over and replied, "Lord Han knows me?" ”

"You have a portrait of me in the Vientiane Cottage here."

Han Zhaozhi didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

"Yes."

Yuan Xiaoyu lowered his head and said, "Yes, if the adults think it's inappropriate, I'll let them withdraw." ”

"Hang it."

Han Zhaozhi stepped forward: "The Tingwei Mansion also has your portrait. ”

Yuan Xiaoyu's face seemed to change, obviously he didn't expect Han Zhaozhi to tell him such a news.

"Did Li Baixiao tell you that the reason why the Tingwei Mansion allowed him to run the Vientiane Grassland was because the Tingwei Mansion was not big enough to save so many maps? Later, the Tingwei Mansion moved out of the Criminal Department and had a new independent yamen, and the place was much larger, so there was naturally a place to hang portraits. ”

Han Zhaozhi said as he walked, "You should know about this." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu leaned over: "This, the owner didn't mention it to me." ”

Han Zhaozhi smiled: "I heard that the shopkeeper Yuan had also done a lot of business before, why did he suddenly fall down?" ”

"You shouldn't get involved in areas you don't know."

Yuan Xiaoyu hunched over and followed Han Zhaozhi behind, and replied as he walked: "I heard that the shipping business made a lot of money, and I gambled that I had all taken a sea trip, and I met pirates on the way and went bankrupt. ”

Han Zhaozhi nodded: "Which waterway are you taking?" If you want to do shipping business again in the future, I can help you find someone to take care of, I have a good relationship with Admiral Shen Leng, the sea patrolman, tell him, and your business will naturally be easier. ”

"Don't dare to do it again."

Yuan Xiaoyu shook his head: "Just eat a trench and grow wise, no matter how profitable the shipping business is, I don't plan to touch it again, and I will help the owner run Baixiaotang's business well, and I won't feel so guilty." ”

"You guys have a really good relationship."

Han Zhaozhi said: "I have heard about the matter between you, and the other thing is that Bai Xiaotang gave you half of the assets, and you need to report to my Tingwei Mansion, which I personally approved." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Thank you, Lord for your love." ”

"I just think Li Baixiao can be a man, he is a friend to make, it should be a brother for you, I am about the same age as you, and my life perception should be similar, it is not easy to have a brother who can trust my life at your age, it is a great luck, everyone's friends are changed one by one, friends of different ages are different, and they can not leave from youth to middle age, that kind of affection ......"

Han Zhaozhi stopped for a moment and looked at Yuan Xiaoyu: "Don't live up to it." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu hurriedly said: "I also know very well that I can't live up to it. ”

"Well, it's good to understand everything."

After Han Zhaozhi finished speaking, he continued to walk forward, and Yuan Xiaoyu's eyes flickered involuntarily, which was very complicated.

Vientiane Caolu is in the courtyard behind Baixiao Hall, and the entire compound is sealed by a wooden roof, so the hall transformed into this compound has dense pillars and dense lights, and the light in the hall is not dim, because there are too many lights, even the shadows of the pillars have become very faint.

Han Zhaozhi paused at the door and looked at Yuan Xiaoyu beside him: "Today, it seems that you have been coming to Baixiaotang for a whole year, right?" ”

"Yes."

Yuan Xiaoyu replied, "My lord really knows everything, and I have indeed been here for a year so far. ”

Han Zhaozhi smiled: "What a coincidence." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu asked, "What do you mean by an adult?" ”

"At about this time last year, Pingyue Dao rebelled, and it was also around this time that Mu Zhaotong died."

Yuan Xiaoyu said: "Why did the adults suddenly think of this? ”

"Because I saw him."

Han Zhaozhi stretched out his finger and pointed, and there was a portrait of Mu Zhaotong opposite, staring at Han Zhaozhi as if he was staring at him blindly.

Han Zhaozhi smiled and said, "This look is right, after all, I killed it." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu hurriedly said: "If it's inappropriate, I'll take the portrait off now." ”

"Why bother?"

Han Zhaozhi walked into the hall, there were too many lights and candles in the hall to count, there were lights hanging on the top, lights hanging on the pillars, and there were lights on all sides of each square pillar.

Han Zhaozhi looked down at his feet, including himself, all the shadows became very scattered and faint, so faint that they were almost invisible.

"Did you think I'd come today?"

Han Zhaozhi glanced back at Yuan Xiaoyu, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Li Baixiao is dead?"

Yuan Xiaoyu took a step back, his face was already a little pale: "He's not dead, he's my brother, I won't harm him." ”

"You, won't hurt him?"

Han Zhaozhi sighed: "If you don't harm him, then what else is harming him...... You are deliberately going to his Baixiaotang to do things, just to wait for the day I come to Baixiaotang, when I came out of the Yuanwangxiang Restaurant, I deliberately let the carriage go slower, in order to give you time to prepare, Li Baixiao should still be here, if you didn't kill him, you should have tied him up? ”

Yuan Xiaoyu's face became even more difficult to look at: "Since Lord Han has arrived, why do you still come?" ”

"If I don't come, how can you come out on your own?"

Han Zhaozhi said: "You know, I will definitely find out about Yuanwang Township Restaurant, and I will definitely go, as long as I get to Yuanwang Township Restaurant, I will find some clues involving Baixiaotang, the people involved in this matter are so important, of course I will come over in person, as long as I come, your plan can end perfectly." ”

Han Zhaozhi looked at a chair next to him, sat down, and tidied up his clothes: "The shipping business you are talking about is actually a business of selling ghost addiction glue, General Shen Leng destroyed this business in southern Xinjiang, of course you will fail in business, General Shen gave an order after arriving at Qiuli, the sailor vigorously cracked down on the business of selling ghost addiction glue, you were desperate, so you had to come back, and then you found that all Mu Zhaotong's business was almost over, and everything you secretly operated for Mu Zhaotong was wiped out in an instant." '

Yuan Xiaoyu asked, "So you came prepared?" ”

"Nope."

Han Zhaozhi said lightly: "I only thought of these when I arrived at the Yuanwangxiang Restaurant, so I didn't have any preparations, and I was in a hurry." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "Lord Han is indeed confident, he dares to come to Baixiaotang with only one subordinate, why can't you be careful?" Knowing that this is a grave dug for you, you have to jump in yourself. ”

"I'll come and see if this grave is good."

Han Zhaozhi shook his head: "I only know after seeing it, it's really not good, and the decoration is not my favorite style." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu paused for a moment, frowned and said: "What you said is right, I am indeed doing things for Ge Lao, Ge Lao's business has been cut off by you, I found Li Baixiao in desperation, he took me as a brother, I had to temporarily live in him, but later I found out that this place is really good, Vientiane Grass House is closed on all sides, even if there is a shout of killing, it can't be heard." ”

Han Zhaozhi shook his head: "Are you worthy of Li Baixiao?" ”

"I'm sorry."

Yuan Xiaoyu said: "After I kill you, I will find him to apologize, and I can die in front of him." ”

"You killed him, and then apologized in front of him."

Han Zhaozhi shook his head slightly: "Disgusting." ”

He looked around: "This place is not good as a grave, but it is really good to kill people, I always thought that people can only be hidden in the shadows, but it turns out that people can be hidden in such a bright place." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, many people appeared in the Vientiane Grass House, and there were people hidden behind each square pillar, because the light was too bright, so the shadows became very faint, and under the light, people could indeed be hidden.

In the entire Vientiane Cottage, there can be almost 200 people.

"That's pretty much the same spec."

Han Zhaozhi was actually a little satisfied.

"If you want to move Lai Cheng, you must move me first."

The corners of Han Zhaozhi's mouth hooked: "Lai Cheng really owes my boss a favor." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu waved his hand, and many people appeared behind him and closed the door.

"Send Han-sama on the road."

Yuan Xiaoyu clasped his hands into fists: "Lord Han, go all the way." ”
