Yuelai Restaurant is located in East Street, Yongkang County.

At this moment, the sky has just darkened, and Yuelai Restaurant ushered in the second peak of the day, and the restaurant was full, hesitating, fighting, laughing and scolding, one after another.

At this time, a middle-aged man who looked like a merchant rode to the bottom of the restaurant.

He was very burly, wearing a half-new soap coat, with his sleeves rolled up, standing there like a hill, with two sword eyebrows inserted into his sideburns, a pair of tiger eyes that were cold and shining, not angry and arrogant,

After he turned over, Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him, bowed his waist and smiled: "Guest officer, you look at your eyes, aren't you a local?" But you've come to the right place, our food is second to none in the county. "

"Is your shopkeeper here?" The middle-aged man stuffed the reins of the horse to Xiao'er and said.

"I'm here, please report your name, and the little one will inform you." Xiao Er's was a little afraid of him, and hurriedly bowed his waist and smiled.

"Tell him my surname is Han and I'm from Jinhua Mansion." The middle-aged man said lightly.

"Wait, I'll go and talk to our shopkeeper." At that moment, Xiao Er led the horse and led him towards the backyard.

Entering the backyard, the middle-aged man waited in the courtyard with his hands on his back, and after a moment's effort, a fat man wearing a gray sermon robe and a square scarf hurried out of the main room.

This person is the shopkeeper of this Yuelai Restaurant, named Tao Xingchang, who is not tall, with a fat figure, a big round face, small eyes, and rosacea, and familiar people call him Tao Fat.

When Tao Fatzi saw the middle-aged man surnamed Han, he was stunned at first, and then he was stunned, and then shouted with a warm smile: "Brother Han, what kind of wind has blown you, come and talk to me in the house." "

The middle-aged man carried his hands and Tao Fatzi into the backyard hall, and then Tao Fatzi looked left and right again, and then closed the door.

As soon as he turned around, a middle-aged man surnamed Han took out an ivory waist card from his sleeve, which read: "Jinyi Wei tries 100 households Han Fangshan".

When Tao Xingchang saw this, he immediately knelt on the ground and saluted: "The little brocade-clothed guard rode Tao Xingchang to see Lord Han!" "

"Get up." Han Fangshan said lightly.

"Your Excellency, please be seated." Tao Xingchang hurriedly gave up his seat to Han Fangshan, while he himself stood opposite with his head down and trembling.

"Today, the official came in person for the case of the Zhang Mansion. Have you ever heard of it? Han Fangshan asked.

"Lord Hui, are you referring to the case of the general flag? This case has become a headless public case, and now that several years have passed, I am afraid it will be difficult to investigate. Tao Xingchang said in a low voice.

"It's him or it's him, have you heard the news of Zhang Ran's son, Zhang Mu's assassination last night?" Han Fangshan looked up and asked.

At that moment, Tao Xingchang had a cold war, and he only heard about it at noon, but he didn't expect that the news had already alarmed Han Baihu, and he hadn't come to report it yet, which was a bit of a dereliction of duty.

"Adults forgive sins, small preparations are announced, but I don't know how adults know?" Tao Xingchang knelt on the ground and asked.

"I happened to be in Jinhua Mansion on business today, and when I heard the news, I came in a hurry. Although I have not been here for a long time, I know about Zhang Ran's sudden death, and I specially looked through your file.

In the dossier you suspect that he was an assassin. Now that his son has been assassinated, the official thinks that these two things are very closely related, do you know any details of what happened? Han Fangshan asked.

"My lord, Zhang Zongqi did his best to track down the Hu case against the party, but he died suddenly. Zhang Zongqi is low-key, although he usually looks weak, but the lower officials know that he is pretending to be just a cover. After the accident, the lower official felt very strange at that time, so he hurriedly reported it, and wanted to investigate to the end, but he received an order from above to suspend all activities, and the matter was put aside.

Over the years, we have not been allowed to move, and the little ones have not dared to reveal their identities, but now things are wrong, and people have been buried, so I am afraid that there will be no results. However, his son Zhang Mu heard that he was crazy and stupid a few years ago, and not long ago, he suddenly hit the head of the case again. The small ones have been reported. It was only at noon today that I heard the news of his assassination last night. The beast is a local Taoist priest. Tao Xingchang said in a low voice.

"The three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions have always been rich, and they are the warehouses of fish and rice in the world. It has always been a battleground for soldiers. In the Hu case, his subordinates had collected money here under the guise of a cult, but none of them had been found out. This time, the official came in person to reopen the case, and Zhang Ran's violent death was an entry point. Han Fangshan said lightly.

"My lord, forgive your presumptuousness. We, we don't have orders from above, we don't dare to move. If something happens, it's a head-off thing. Tao Xingchang said tremblingly, a cold sweat had already appeared on his forehead.

"Hehe, Master Tao. It's only been a few years, have you all forgotten your responsibilities? Han Fangshan sneered.

"Your Excellency forgives your sins, your lords forgive your sins. The little one did not forget his duty for a moment. All these years of lurking here, he has always been loyal to the imperial court, and he has never hesitated. Tao Xingchang hurriedly kowtowed and said.

"It's good to know what you do. You don't have to worry about the above things. All you have to do is do what you command. If you want someone, the official will give you people, and if you want money, the official will give you money. Be sure to get to the bottom of this case. Whether or not my brocade guards can regroup, this burden will fall on your shoulders. Han Fangshan said meaningfully.

Tao Xingchang was stunned when he heard this.

This Han Fangshan was only dispatched here last winter, but his name is like thunder, and Tao Xingchang has heard of it.

Originally, this Han Fangshan worked as an errand in the North Town Fu Division, which was an institution under Jinyiwei and had its own prison, which could be arrested, tortured, and executed on its own without going through the judicial body. And this Han Fang Shanren sent the iron-faced judge to the open sea, and he was one of the fierce generals of the Zhenfu Division.

In the empty seal case, Guo Heng case, and Hu case, Han Fangshan participated in it from beginning to end, and supervised countless cases.

It's just that three years ago, His Majesty issued an edict to burn the Jinyi Guard's torture equipment and transfer the prisoners in the edict to the Criminal Department for trial; At the same time, it was ordered that all the inner and outer prisons should be tried by the three legal divisions, and Jinyiwei was already in name only.

Tao Xingchang has been lurking all these years, not daring to move, just occasionally reporting some information, last year Han Fangshan was suddenly transferred here, he felt that something was wrong, and now it seems that I am afraid that the wind direction is about to change.

"My lord, is it ......?" Tao Xingchang was still not at ease, so he asked tentatively.

"Yes, my Jinyiwei has indeed walked on thin ice over the years, but after all, we are sharing worries for Your Majesty, how can Your Majesty forget our merits? Now the hardest rìzi is over. You just have to let it go, if something happens, the official will bear it for you. Han Fangshan smiled faintly.

"Xia Guan understands." Immediately, Tao Xingchang hurriedly clenched his fists and said.

"The top priority at the moment is to find that assassin, and now the entire Jinhua Mansion is looking for him, and while he has not run far, we must capture him back. Secondly, it is necessary to peel off the cocoon and find the cause of Zhang Ran's death. If your assumption is correct, then there must be a big fish behind it. When the time comes, you will be the first to do it. Han Fangshan said with a smile.

"Thank you for the promotion of the small ones, this is all cultivated by Lord Han, and the small ones will do their best, please rest assured." Tao Xingchang said with his fists clenched.

"If you dare to go against my Jinyiwei, this official wants to see who the Holy Spirit is him." Han Fangshan got up slowly, walked to the window, looked up at the sky, the dark clouds that covered the moon slowly dispersed, and he secretly said in his heart: "Zhang Zongqi, Zhang Zongqi, if you have a spirit in the sky." I will bless my Jinyi Wei to successfully solve this case."
