Chapter 642: The Tiger Who Scattered and Reasoned
"She performs every night?" Wang Laohu asked.
"Yes. In the past few days, the classic repertoire of Huangmei's drama has been performed, and tonight I heard that "Meng Lijun" will be performed. Xu Wan said.
"In order to save Li Lang from his homeland, who would have expected the champion in the emperor list ......" Wang Laohu couldn't help humming a few words of Huangmei opera, which made Xu Wan impressed, "Xianggong sang Huangmei tune "Meng Lijun"? Have you ever heard of this play? β
"I've heard it, this play is very famous, the talented girl Meng Lijun ran away from home in disguise disguised as a man in order to save her fiancΓ© who was framed by the power rape, and the prime minister of the official residence. Emperor Yuancheng saw through Lijun's disguise and wanted to accept her as a concubine, but Lijun refused, and with the help of the Queen Mother, Lijun was able to save her loyalty and eliminate adultery and marry her sweetheart. β
"It turned out to be a heroine. Xiang Gong likes such a woman very much? β
"Green vegetables and turnips, each with his own love. After all, female talents like Meng Lijun are in the minority. β
"Do you know who plays this Meng Lijun?"
Who starring? It won't be Ouyang Yan.
"Let me tell you, it's the class master himself."
Starring Ouyang Yan? This little woman knows kung fu herself, and she has a deep hatred with others, so it is still appropriate for her to act. "I really want to see such Meng Lijun."
"Then the prime minister will come back early tonight."
"If you can," replied Wang.
Hangzhou Street.
Wang Laohu walked on the street, followed by Wang Biao and two guards.
"Wang Biao, you have followed me for many years, and you know me best, you and I, the master and servant, rarely have such time to come out to relax."
Wang Biao didn't think much about Wang Laohu's words, and said: "Gongzi has more people and more things now, of course, there will be fewer when he comes out with Wang Biao." β
"Haha, Wang Biao, Wang Biao." Wang Laohu said to himself from the bottom of his heart.
A teahouse.
Wang Laohu entered the building and left, "Shop, serve tea." Wang Laohu said to the shopkeeper.
A shopkeeper in his fifties stepped forward and said, "Guest officer, what kind of tea do you want to drink?" β
"The best in Hangzhou is this Longjing tea, you can take the best Longjing in the store."
"Guest officer, look at your dress, you know that you are a rich person, although my store is small, but the Longjing in my store is the best in Hangzhou, my Longjing tea head tea is picked in March, the leaves are tender and fragrant."
"I want this Longjingtou tea." Wang Laohu said.
"Come on, I'll give you Longjingtou tea."
A pot of tea immediately came up, Wang Laohu tasted it carefully in front of a table, this Longjing does not seem to be as good as the shopkeeper said, as the saying goes, Longjing tea "is the top grade before the rain, and it is a treasure before the Ming Dynasty", the shopkeeper blows the shape, but the taste of the juice brewed by this tea is obviously not the aroma of the head tea. This is also a profiteer, just you, count you unlucky.
Wang Laohu took another sip of tea, and his eyes scanned around the teahouse
For a week, in addition to himself, there were two tables of guests in the entire teahouse, and no one was found to be following him, and this person did not follow up, Wang Laohu said to himself.
No, these people are not ordinary people, they are Jinyi Guards, no matter in terms of kung fu or tracking skills, they are not inferior to their own agents, where are these people now?
Wang Laohu inadvertently squinted, but found that on the second floor of a room opposite, someone was staring at the teahouse.
These cubs are really pervasive.
After tasting tea for a while, Wang Laohu felt that the time was almost up, so he got up to leave, Wang Biao just wanted to touch the money in his arms, but Wang Laohu stopped him, but Wang Biao was very puzzled at this time.
When the shopkeeper saw that the guest had drunk the tea, he stepped forward and said, "Guest officer, you have drunk this tea." β
"Well, it's good to drink."
"How does it taste?"
"The taste is so-so." The shopkeeper didn't see that Wang Laohu had any intention of paying, and reminded: "Guest, you haven't paid for the tea yet?" β
Wang Laohu pretended not to hear it, and the shopkeeper reminded him again, and Wang Laohu scolded: "You ignorant guy, do you know who I am?" Dare to ask me for tea money. β
The shopkeeper saw a few subordinates around him, and knew that he was not an ordinary person, but the tea money still had to be collected, so he stubbornly said: "I don't care who you are, this tea money still has to be given, how can there be a reason in the world not to give money for tea." β
"I'll show you, in my place, there is this truth." Speaking, he stretched out his hand, towards the shopkeeper's face is a slap in the past, the shopkeeper is already in his fifties, if Wang Laohu hits hard, the shopkeeper is in danger of life, so he still mastered some strength, "snap", the shopkeeper's face is a slap, although the slap sounds, the face is also a little painful, but basically it is fine, the shopkeeper just wanted to step forward and then theorize, but was scared back by Wang Laohu from Wang Biao's hand with a big knife.
"If you say a few more words, I'll cut out your tongue." Wang Laohu said viciously.
This scene made the guests at the two tables next to him frightened and didn't dare to move, and Wang Biao was also at a loss by the master's sudden move.
Out of the teahouse, Wang Laohu went directly to the guard.
Guard Command Hall.
Wang Laohu said to Shi Youcai: "It's been a few days since I took Qian Kebai, and how to deal with Qian Kebai is really a problem." β
Shi Youcai smiled and said, "This is a difficult thing in itself, but you insist on shooting him." Shi Youcai also knew that Qian Kebai wanted to kill Wang Laohu, and Wang Laohu's arrest of him could be regarded as self-defense, but if he really did so, it was not in line with the emperor's intentions, and he took it with confidence.
"If I knew this, I would have listened to General Shi's words, and now this matter is a hot potato." Wang Laohu sighed.
"This hot potato, no matter how unpalatable it is, Lord Wang will swallow it."
"General Shi, you are making fun of me, I can't eat this potato, and I will lose face if I spit it out, so it's difficult for me to do it. General Shi, you can give me a feasible solution. β
Shi Youcai had never seen Wang Laohu look so helpless, and said, "General Wang, do you really have no idea?" β
"General Shi, you're still laughing at me, I think that's it, just let the money go for nothing." Wang Laohu said casually.
"Didn't General Wang have an idea?" Shi Youcai said.
"General Shi also supports my release?"
"Although Lord Qian was involved, the real implementer was Han Li Cai, and besides, his people did not go to Jiangxi, and they did not sue King Ning, so there would be no consequences."
"Yes, General Shi's words made me pause, and I know what to do."
Shi Youcai smiled, looked at Wang Laohu, and said, "General Wang, you did it on purpose." β
"You have walked more bridges than I have eaten, the emperor has arranged you by my side, I think the intention of the saint is to let General Shi come to remind me from time to time, so as to save me from making mistakes." Wang Laohu asked, "Is there any news of the five missing people?" β
"Not yet, the soldiers of the guard haven't heard from them yet. Is there no news from the prefect of Hangzhou either? Shi Youcai asked.
"So far, no one has sent me any news, which means that there is no news either." Wang Laohu said.
"It's really strange, these five people have disappeared for so many days, and they also want to eat, drink, and Lazar, General Wang, you said that they are in the city, why haven't they heard anything about them until now?"
Wang Laohu also felt very strange, the five people seemed to have disappeared from the world, and they could no longer be found.
"Do you think these five people were killed like the 100 or so officers and soldiers before?" Shi Youcai had a bold guess.
"If someone kills someone, we have to find the bodies of these people, but so far we have not found the bodies, and we have not found anyone. That's weird. β
"It's weird."
"Do you know what I'm most worried about right now?" Wang Laohu said, "Even if the five of them all work together, they won't produce much force, I'm afraid that there are still their comrades in the guard, and they should cooperate with the outside." β
"This is plotting rebellion. General Wang, if they succeed in this matter, you and I will not be able to get rid of it. Shi Youcai said.
"So the money can be free, and it can be put away. Others can't put. Wang Laohu said.
"I will order my people to watch the guard, please rest assured General Wang." Shi Youcai said.
"General Shi, for the sake of safety, I will let my people enter the guard, they are organized separately and do not belong to the court, and in addition, I want 500 sets of soldiers' uniforms in the guard." Wang Laohu meant that 500 people should enter the guard.
"Okay, I'll prepare for General Wang right away."
