Chapter 041: The Darkest Before Dawn

In the depths of the night, a few crows chirped from outside the small hut.

Shen Fu knelt on the ground and trembled, but finally admitted everything.

"What Master Su said is right, Zhu Neng was indeed killed by me, that night I thought that Zhu Neng would play for a while and leave, but I didn't expect him to play until the time of the child before leaving the flower boat, originally after he left the flower boat, I was going to enter the flower boat, but at that time, I suddenly felt that something was a little strange, Zhu Neng couldn't enter the city, and he didn't go to Qinhuai Street to spend the night, so where did he go?"

He was a little drunk, I stepped forward to talk to him, he saw that it was me, he was a little angry, but I hurriedly said good things to him, he was a little relieved, I took advantage of his drunkenness, and asked him where he was going, I think everyone knows that if a man has a thing in his heart that he feels very proud of, he will definitely not be able to help but say it, Zhu Neng can make the peony girl his forbidden belly, which is a proud thing in his heart, so after my little guidance, He told him everything, and when I heard him say that, I was furious, and I didn't expect him to imprison the Peony girl, and I was so angry that when he turned to leave, I found a stone and threw it on his head. ”

"At that time, I just wanted to vent my anger, and I didn't think about killing him, but I didn't expect Zhu Neng to be so unbeaten, I went down all at once, and he died, I panicked, and in a hurry I pulled him closer to the grass, and then took all the valuable things on his body, so that people thought that it was a robbery, and after killing Zhu Neng, I found a place to hide, and as soon as the morning dawned, I hurried home and told me that the concubine, if someone came to ask me where I was that night, I said that I had been with her!"

After Shen Fu finished speaking, everyone understood, and at this time, Shen Fu suddenly looked at Su Wuming and asked, "Do you suspect that I killed Zhu Neng, just because my concubine showed her feet, making you think she was lying?" ”

Su Wuming smiled lightly: "That is indeed a clue, of course, there are other clues, Zhu Nengzi left the flower boat, then he must live in other places outside Jinling City, when I thought that this matter might have something to do with the disappearance of Miss Ruyan, I guessed that Ruyan may have been taken away by Zhu Neng, and in the entire Jinling City, who would be angry because Ruyan became Zhu Neng's taboo, I thought of you first, so I asked Jiang Ying to follow you, and sure enough, you really came here secretly." ”

Shen Fu was no longer nervous about this matter, he sighed, and said, "I didn't want to come tonight, but I was worried that Peony would be hurt here, so I wanted to come and see it earlier." ”

"But you shouldn't have been contemptuous of the girl like smoke after you came!"

After Su Wuming finished speaking, the official behind him had already moved and tied him up, and at this time, the sky was dark and it was about to dawn.

Before dawn, it was the darkest time of the day, and the lights in the house were gradually burning out, and the whole hut was shrouded in darkness.

But this did not make everyone feel afraid, because everyone knows that although it is darkest before dawn, it is the closest time to dawn, and dawn will eventually come.

When the sunlight shone through the layers of wooden leaves on the hut, Su Wuming and the others had already taken the awakened Ruyan girl into Jinling City, and after asking the Ruyan girl, everyone finally understood that since the Ruyan girl eloped with someone, why did she get on the flower boat.

It turned out that after the girl eloped with the friend, she thought about taking a boat to the north and finding a place where no one knew them to start over, but who would have thought that halfway through the boat, the girl who was like a cigarette would regret it, he took all the money of the girl as his own, and pushed the girl into the water, if it wasn't for the timely discovery of the third aunt of Long, the girl would really be a water ghost.

After listening to Miss Ruyan's narration, Nangong Yan was very angry, what she couldn't get used to was this kind of unrighteous man, so she looked at Ruyan and asked, "What is the name of that little white face, what does it look like, after finding him, Miss Ben has to make him look good." ”

He ...... His name is Bai Yu, and he ......."

After everyone listened to the words of the girl like smoke, they suddenly felt that life was really wonderful, wasn't Bai Yu Bai Yu, he used several aliases to entangle the noble ladies of Jinling City, for their money?

Fortunately, the sky net was restored, and Bai Yu finally failed to escape the legal net.

It's just that his real name is Bai Yu or Bai Yu?

They didn't bother to think about it, because as long as someone else is in prison, whatever his name is, he should be taught a lesson.

After entering the Assassin's Mansion and being busy with everything, Luo Rui and Zhuge Jia and others were already impressed by Su Wuming, and they had to ask Su Wuming and others to stay in their Jinling to play for a few more days, Jinling has beautiful scenery, and Nangong Yan They really wanted to stay and have fun, but Su Wuming smiled lightly, saying that the emperor's order was in his body, and if he was reported to the court by people with bad intentions, saying that they were playing around in the name of patrolling, it would be a little bad, so he insisted on leaving, Luo Rui had no choice but to agree.

After a short rest in the Assassin's Mansion, Su Wuming and the others left Jinling City.

Although Jinling is prosperous, it is not a place for them to stay for a long time, in addition to Su Wuming has the emperor's order, and then there is his high heart, he is ambitious, he does not want to solve the mystery case only for the people in Jinling City, he wants to solve the mystery case for the entire Jianghuai, and even the entire people of the Tang Dynasty.

After the group left Jinling, they passed through Huainan Road and finally entered Jiangnan East Road, which took about a month to finally reach the boundary of Hangzhou.

Originally, after Su Wuming and they arrived at the boundary of Jiangnan Dongdao, it stands to reason that they should go to meet the observation and disposal envoy Li Jingdao Li, but Su Wuming felt that the emperor sent him here to patrol the press, and he should have solved the suspicious case for the people in a down-to-earth manner.

Although it is normal for political parties in the court to make friends now, does it not mean that they are used to making friends with others?

Moreover, they made friends in the court, and the emperor saw it in his eyes, and he could grasp the proportions, so he was not too worried, but the outside was different.

The status of the observation envoy is similar to that of the Jiedu envoy, he holds the military and political power of a Tao, he has an army under his command, and there is a warehouse, the emperor is most afraid of these people, for fear that they will rebel one day, if Su Wuming comes and is close to Li Jingdao, wouldn't he fall into the handle?

So after some consideration, Su Wuming felt that they should go to Hangzhou first, which is the house of silk, and the textile business is very good.

Originally, officials in the Tang Dynasty were forbidden to do business, after all, they were afraid that officials would bend the law for their own business, but after the Anshi Rebellion, this situation was relieved a lot, Su Wuming remembered that during the Wu Zetian period, if officials bought a bun on the street to eat, they would be punished, because officials eating buns on the street damaged the image of court officials, and it was a manifestation of the small people in the market.

Fortunately, now is not Wu Zetian's period, Su Wuming and they can not only eat steamed buns on the street, but also do business, of course, although they are doing business, they can't do it in the name of Su Wuming, they must do it in the name of Wen Wan'er.

Although the Tang Dynasty was not very strict with these things at this time, in order to avoid being caught, it was better to be careful.

The prosperity of Hangzhou is no less than that of Jinling, and after Su Wuming and a few of them entered the boundary of Hangzhou, they were immediately shocked by the prosperity here, and they were also attracted by the beautiful scenery here.

Chang'an belongs to the ancient capital, its style is more heavy, but this Hangzhou, more is delicate, whether it is the mountain and the water, or the woman of the raccoon yarn, are delicate, and in the delicate, there is also an aura, so that people do not want to leave.

Wen Wan'er and Nangong Yan have always lived in Luoyang, and when they used to be in the boudoir, they didn't have the opportunity to move around at all, although they have admired Hangzhou for a long time, today is the first time they have come and seen each other, so they are very excited to enter Hangzhou.

Wen Wan'er has always been steady, so she didn't act crazy, but Nangong Yan was different, after she entered Hangzhou City, she wanted everything she saw, she wanted to play everything she saw, so excitedly she pulled everyone for half a street, and didn't stop until she felt hungry.

At this time, it is almost noon, and it is early summer, so the whole Hangzhou has a faint sultry heat.

Everyone entered the inn to eat, and when they were almost full, Wen Wan'er raised the question that had been in her heart for a long time.

"Xianggong, we are new to Hangzhou, and we are going to do business here, I'm afraid we can't do it without buying a shop and a mansion!"

The people who had been eating suddenly stopped their chopsticks, and this is indeed a problem, and it is a problem that requires money and time to solve.

Su Wuming thought for a while, and then smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, lady, although this matter is troublesome, it will not make us helpless, just have the silver, there is nothing that cannot be done." ”

Before coming to Jianghuai, Wen Wan'er had already prepared the money, and she had a huge Wen mansion, and there was still no shortage of money.

After lunch, Su Wuming led them to find the mansion.

Before evening, they found a mansion on the opposite side of a small river, the sound of the river tinkling, very elegant and quiet, Wen Wan'er liked this place at first sight, so even if the price of the mansion was a little higher, they still reluctantly bought it.

The mansion is divided into two floors, Su Wuming and Wen Wan'er Nangong Yan live on the inner floor, Tang Xiong and they live outside, the courtyard on the inner floor is slightly smaller, but it is full of all kinds of flowers and plants, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
