Chapter 110: No One Is Alive
After experiencing the kidnapping case that happened in Yuhualou, although Yuhualou is still barely open for business, the number of customers has decreased significantly. When he arrived at the door of Yuhua Tower, Sima Yi poked his head in and said, "You said that the people who came last time, will we still see them?" β
Sima's excuse was referring to Yang Yu and Li Wei and others. Yang Xi said: "I still saw the third brother today, he shouldn't come over." And the Miss He you talked about should have nothing to do with my third brother. β
Sima Yu said with a narrow smile: "When Yang Gongzi and you get married, you will understand what a family flower is not as fragrant as a wild flower." β
Han Jian pointed at Sima Yi and said, "Gossip inside, take a few people in to check first, and do a routine business." β
"Okay." Because the last time Han Jian came to Yuhualou, he had a little conflict with Yang Yu, and at the same time revealed his identity, this time he will have the pomp of the East King when he comes again. Where he wants to go, he has to go to someone to check it out first, especially the right and wrong place like Yuhualou, where there has been a kidnapping case.
Sima Yi is nominally a friend of Han Jian, but sometimes he is also a henchman of Han Jian, and he will do and be willing to do this kind of thing when he takes the lead. When Sima Yi came out after checking with a few guards, Lan Niang, the bustard lady of Yuhualou, had already greeted her in person, and most of the friendly smiles on her face were piled up.
"His Royal Highness is coming, and the slave family has not had time to welcome him, and he is still looking at Haihan." When she arrived at the door, Lan Niang Tingting gave a salute, and her words were also respectful.
Han Jian took a look at Lan Niang's outfit, unlike the last time she wore a big robe with a long belt, this time Lan Niang dressed a lot simpler, she looked like a good woman, but she still had a bit of seduction, which made a cheerful veteran like Huang Lie stunned.
"Lan Niang is polite, lead the way." Han Jian smiled slightly, and said in a flat tone.
"Your Highness, please go upstairs with the slave family."
Lan Niang personally led the way, and Huang Lie took the opportunity to step forward to rub the oil. When he arrived at Yuhualou, Huang Liehui was fΓΉ his true nature, and some unhappiness about Yang Li'er before was also left behind by him.
The last time he came to Yuhualou, after Han Jian and the female assassin entered the room, Huang Lie was actively bidding for the Jiang family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, he was already determined to win, but he did not expect a kidnapping case to occur later, so that the "good thing" of the day was not over. This time, Huang Lie was most concerned about the current situation of the two women of the Jiang family.
Lan Niang smiled: "Why should Huang Gongzi be anxious? There is a saying in Yuhualou that it should be yours, and it will always be yours. β
Huang Lie was slightly stunned, and then smiled with a pig brother. In the party, even if you can't get it today, you can always get it in the future, this is an immutable law, but some things are as early as possible, and he also knows that leftovers taste unpleasant.
"Lan Niang, help me more today, I brought a silver ticket." Huang Lie said, showing Lan Niang the silver ticket that he was muttering in his purse. Huang Lie stayed in the capital and brought a lot of silver, and he didn't know how to save. Han Jian even suspected that Huang Lie had his entire net worth with him.
Lan Niang smiled and nodded, but she was perfunctory to Huang Lie, after all, Han Jian, the East King, was the one she couldn't afford to offend. Although Lan Niang also knew Huang Lie's background, she also knew that Huang Lie had no power in the capital, and he couldn't even compare with those local snakes.
In front of the large room on the second floor, Lan Niang stood by the door and said, "It's here, Your Highness, please come in." β
"Hmm." Han Jian nodded slightly, and the guards had already entered the door first. When I got to the door, there were only a few tables of guests inside, which seemed a little deserted, which was very different from the scene when the last time I came to the full house.
"It seems to be a little deserted today." Han Jian seemed to sigh casually.
Lan Niang smiled and said: "What Your Highness said is that the case has only happened for a few days, and now those rebellious kidnappers have not yet been arrested. β
Han Jian said: "In the event of such a big case, it is not easy for Yuhualou to still open as usual. β
Lan Niang bowed slightly, and seemed to hear that Han Jian's words were not just emotional, but deliberately tricked her words. Then Lan Niang smiled and said: "Your Highness must also know that Yuhualou is an official brothel after all, the hall of the official family, how can the official family not be able to get along with its own people?" β
The official prostitute is also the ** opened by the government, the so-called own people do not beat their own people, no matter how big a case occurs in the official prostitution, the government usually will not hold them accountable. And Yuhualou itself also has the criminal department waiter Li Wei, the behind-the-scenes owner, now Li Wei eats very well in the capital, although he has been at fault in the fraud case and the kidnapping case, but he made up for it well, after Yang Yu was kidnapped, Li Wei can be regarded as the first soldier to rescue Yang Yu. But in the process of rescuing Yang Yu, in the final analysis, it was Huang Lie who made the greatest contribution.
Han Jian and his party were a lot of people, and the guards seemed to be carrying weapons of five big and three thick, which made the rest of the guests a little uneasy. But the guards of the Dongwang Mansion are all well-known for not disturbing the people, and when they come out with Han Jian, they also abide by their duties, and they will not shout or interfere in other people's affairs, they stand aside, at most they just give people an oppressive force.
As soon as the group sat down, Huang Lie asked, "Lan Niang, is Miss He here?" β
"Miss He?" Lan Niang was stunned for a moment and said, "This ......"
"Today, we are here for the face of Miss He, people will not be picked up by Li Shilang, right?" Huang Lie's face was a little colder, and he didn't have the flattering pig brother appearance just now.
Lan Niang smiled and said: "Li Shilang has indeed sent someone here, but the person has not yet sent it, so why should he be picked up?" β
"No one came?" Sima Yi stood up again and said, "Bullying us for being unheard? According to the people in the Tingwei Mansion, Miss He sent it yesterday, and you actually said that the person hasn't sent it today, so you deliberately hide it from us, right? β
Lan Niang glanced at Han Jian, who had a calm face, originally her Western King Han Jian could say something, but Han Jian's expression was clearly asking her about this matter through the mouths of Huang Lie and Sima Yi, and he would not speak for her.
Lan Niang was a little anxious and said: "Oh, look at it, the slave family is just a dusty person." Li Shilang sent someone before, and the slave family said the same, and they didn't believe it. But said that such a guilty official lady, even if she was a phoenix in the past, is now a phoenix in distress, how dare the slave family dare to hide it from you? If you don't come, you don't come, or you don't ...... Let's go to the Tingwei's Mansion first and inquire? β
Han Jian saw that Lan Niang's eager appearance didn't look like she was talking nonsense, maybe the information on Lin Zhan's side was wrong, Miss He had a chance to escape after being rescued by the chaotic party, but she was captured by the government when she was searching for the chaotic party, so she couldn't escape the fate of falling into the dust, and she still had to return to Yuhualou. But whether it was the Tingwei Mansion that sent people over, or whether there were other links in the middle, Lin Zhan didn't know what he said, and Han Jian didn't have the heart to ask more at that time, making this matter an unsolved case.
Huang Lie said: "Lan Niang, you can't do this properly. Even if no one came, but Miss He is now considered a person from your Yuhualou, should you send someone to Yuhualou to inquire about? β
Lan Niang sighed helplessly: "Alas, I don't know where Miss He is good, the chaotic party wants to save him, Li Shilang sent someone to pick him up, and others have to see her when they hear that she is coming, and now even His Royal Highness and several others have named her." It's a pity that the slave family has no power and no power, and the slave family really doesn't know where the person is. This Miss He family is guilty, and if she wants to inquire about her whereabouts, the slave family can't hand over a word even if she finds someone to go to the yamen. A few forgive me, I'm afraid...... The slave family is really powerless. β
Sima was a little angry when he heard Lan Niang's tone of pushing two, six and five, and said, "Hey, don't you give face to say this?" We just came to see Miss He, and we couldn't see anyone...... Hmph, weigh the consequences yourself. β
Hearing Sima say this, Lan Niang was a little shocked. The king of the east brought so many retinues to ask her for people, if she couldn't hand over people, could today's matter be solved in peace?
