Chapter 719: Yongyang Coffin Shop

"You don't have to worry about that. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Li Heng has been the crown prince for more than ten years, no one knows him better than me, he has a cowardly personality and is not very capable, the reason why he took this case is just to take this opportunity to attract the attention of the emperor. What's more, this time the Imperial Historical Observatory is also involved, as long as this sect has a little trick, he can play in the palm of his hand. Yang Guozhong said confidently.

"The sect master strategized and won a decisive victory, and his subordinates admired him very much. In this case, the subordinates will take their leave first! The masked man bowed.

Yang Guozhong stroked his beard, waved his hand and said, "Go ahead!" Remember, no matter what, find out the whereabouts of the two of them! ”

"Subordinates obey!" The masked man said respectfully.

After the masked man left, Yang Guozhong stroked the skeleton on the seat with his hand, and laughed fiercely: "Li Canghai, I want to see if you can get out of this serial scheme?" ”

said that Li Canghai and Di Ying took advantage of the night to go to Yongyangfang.

The two first found the head of the shop and asked how many coffin shops there were in Yongyang Fang, and after learning that there was only one family surnamed Guan doing the coffin business in the past ten years, the two hurried to the coffin shop on the east side of Yongyang Fang.

By this time, the time had come and the shops on both sides of the street were closed.

There are several coffins outside the coffin shop, and the surroundings are deserted, standing around the coffin, you feel the wind gusting, which makes people shudder.

"Second brother, it should be this one." Li Canghai looked at the coffins around him and said in a low voice.

Di Ying nodded, walked over directly, stretched out his finger and knocked on the door a few times.

Knock knock~

Soon a voice came from the room: "Who? ”

Listening to the voice, it seemed to be a young man, and after the two glanced at each other, Di Ying said: "Shopkeeper, I want to order a coffin, I don't know if this deal can still be done?" ”

Hearing that someone wanted to buy a coffin, the shopkeeper said happily: "Do it, do it!" Wait a minute, wait for me to put on my clothes, and open the door to the Guan=guest officer! ”

A moment later, the door opened, and a man in his twenties stepped out.

He saw that Di Ying was wearing a silk luo and had an extraordinary bearing, so he didn't dare to slack off in his heart, and hurriedly led the two into the room.

Once in the room, the man was busy pouring tea for the two of them.

Di Ying sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea, and said, "Shopkeeper, I don't know what to call it?" Gui Geng geometry? ”

"I'm twenty-three this year, and the guest officer calls me Guan Yuan." The man said politely.

Di Ying nodded and said, "I didn't expect the shopkeeper to open a coffin shop so young, which is really surprising." ”

Guan Yuan smiled and said, "The guest officer said that he was joking, in fact, this shop was left by my father. Otherwise, how can I hold up this shop? ”

After a pause, Guan Yuan looked at the two of them and said, "The two of you just said that you want to buy a coffin, I don't know who in the family died?" ”

Di Ying didn't speak, but took out a pair of official notes from his arms and handed them over.

Guan Yuan took it in his hand with a puzzled expression, and opened it to look at it.

This look suddenly startled him, and he knelt down in front of Di Ying, raised the official post above his head, and said respectfully: "The grass people don't know that the adults are coming, and the rude places look at the adults Haihan!" ”

Di Ying took back the official post and said lightly: "The shopkeeper doesn't have to be polite, get up and speak." ”

"Master Xie." Guan Yuan thanked him again and again, stood up, and stood aside.

"The shopkeeper, to be honest, this time the official came, in fact, not to buy a coffin. It's something I want to ask you. Di Huai said.

"My lord, excuse me. The grass people must know everything and say everything. Guan Yuan said with his head down.

Di Huai looked at Li Canghai, and when he saw Li Canghai nodding slightly, he spoke: "Let me ask you, how long have you been running this shop?" ”

"Back to my lord, from the father of the grass people to the present, the small shop has been in business for more than 20 years." Guan Yuan replied.

"Where is your father now?" Di Huai asked.

Guan Yuan sighed and said, "My father has been dead for more than two years. ”

Di Huai was slightly stunned and looked at Li Canghai.

Li Canghai has always stood behind Di Huai, playing the role of a domestic servant very well.

At this time, hearing what Guan Yuan said, his brows suddenly furrowed.

Di Jinghui's coffin was bought ten years ago, when Guan Yuan was only thirteen years old, and the coffin could never have been bought by Guan Yuan.

In other words, the person who sold the coffin was Guan Yuan's father.

But what they didn't expect was that Guan Yuan's father had been dead for many years.

Originally, they thought that they could find some clues from the provenance of this coffin, but now it seems that the bamboo basket is empty.

Seeing that Di Ying's expression was a little abnormal, Guan Yuan hesitated, and then asked cautiously, "My lord, I don't know what you are doing here?" ”

Di Ying thought about it and felt that there was no need to hide this matter, so she said, "That's the case." I am from Luoyang, and my third uncle came to Chang'an ten years ago, but he has disappeared without a trace. Not long ago, I learned that the third uncle died in Chang'an ten years ago. The official searched for a long time before he found the grave of the third uncle, and wanted to move the third uncle back to the ancestral grave for burial, so that the third uncle could return to his roots. But when the coffin was opened, I found that the inner wall of the coffin lid was engraved with the words 'Yongyang coffin', so I wanted to come over and ask the shopkeeper if he had seen my third uncle. ”

Li Canghai also sighed: "The third master of my family has no children and no daughters, and he died in Chang'an inexplicably. My lord wanted to find out the cause of the third master's death, but the third master had been dead for a long time, so we had to come to your shop, hoping to get some clues from the old shopkeeper. Unexpectedly, the old shopkeeper also drove to the west! ”

"Wait a minute, what did you say, my lord? See our store number on the inner wall of the coffin? Guan Yuan asked in surprise.

Li Canghai wiped his tears and choked up: "Yes! This is also the only clue, it was my master who found this place. ”

"Dare to ask my lord, is there anything else engraved on the inner wall of the coffin besides the store number of this store?" Guan Yuan asked with a solemn expression.

"Just because the coffin has been buried in the ground for ten years, the coffin lid has long been rotten, and those who can recognize it only have the words 'Yongyang coffin'. Why did the shopkeeper ask like that? Li Canghai saw Guan Yuan's abnormal expression, his heart moved, and he hurriedly asked.

Guan Yuan lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said: "To be honest, before my father died, he told me one thing, saying that someone bought a coffin from him ten years ago and left something for my father to keep. My father was a man of promises, and kept it for ten years, but he never waited for anyone to pick it up. Before he died, my father gave it to me and told me to keep my promise to keep it. I didn't expect that today finally came! ”

Li Canghai and Di Ying glanced at each other, and the two of them became excited at the same time, they didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain.

"Shopkeeper, can you elaborate on this?" Di Ying said excitedly. (To be continued.) )
