Chapter 496: Dongfang Tanyang

After Cheng Jinghu hosted a banquet for Lin Daiyu and Wu Zhi in Wangtianlou, within two days, several people got the news.

Although she and Dongfang Lingtian were not born to the same father, she was not in the court and the opposition, and she had no intention of competing for the throne, and she was emotionally closer to Dongfang Lingtian than other princesses, so she was very popular with the emperor and was trusted by Dongfang Lingtian.

After returning to Beijing after visiting the Quartet for many years, he opened such a restaurant on a whim.

Originally, she was just idle and having fun, but Dongfang Ling Tian also hoped that she would stay in Kyoto and stop running around, so he acquiesced.

In the laws of this dynasty, it is strictly forbidden for officials to have a sideline business or official family members to engage in commercial activities, although members of the royal family are also prohibited, but compared with officials, it is slightly more lenient, because there are always a few grass heirs who are not able to engage in politics and cannot support a large family of husbands, children, slaves and maids. They were no threat to the throne, and the emperors could not watch them starve to death, but could only turn a blind eye, even if they knew, they would not know. And the courtiers, who don't know, don't know, and who know, won't pierce this layer of window paper without eyes.

The fact that Dongfang Tanyang is the real master behind Wangtianlou is not known to many people in this dynasty, let alone the common people. They only knew that the backstage of Wangtianlou was quite hard, but anyone who provoked them had no good fruit to eat, but they didn't know who it was.

The restaurant is open, and the many benefits brought by its additional functions are gradually revealed, and it is impossible for Dongfang Tanyang not to know about it, so with the acquiescence of Dongfang Lingtian again, Wangtianlou has a group of young people who specialize in accompanying wine and serving food, which is equivalent to putting more pairs of eyes and ears on the side of the diners, closer than the second sister, and it is more convenient to act than the secret guard agent of Huangweilou, and it is a bright eavesdropping.

After a long time, Wangtianlou naturally attracted the attention of people with hearts, such as the Third Princesses Dongfang Hui, such as the Second Queen's Daughter Oriental Pearl, such as Zuo Cheng Xiaoling, Right Prime Minister Mu Danwei, and Cheng Jinghu, Director of the Criminal Department.

Although the six Shangshu are all interested in Wangtianlou, in comparison, it is naturally the criminal department that is good at investigating and handling cases that is the most capable of making judgments and reasoning based on clues. Although Shang Shu Mo of the Criminal Department is greedy and only occupies the pit and does not have much ability to try cases, he has right-hand men such as Mu Lanxin on the left, Lu Tianming on the right, and Cheng Jinghu, director of the Criminal Department.

And among them, especially Cheng Jinghu, who is easy not to shoot people's sycophants, is the most prominent, at a young age, he helped solve several major cases before and after taking the exam in the capital, and met Dongfang Ling Tian, who was out of the palace during the cracking of the case, and was appreciated, and then he was promoted step by step by himself and promoted to the position of director of the Criminal Department.

This is also the reason why she appeared in Shunfeng City in the first place, not only to investigate the real cause of death of the Shunfeng County Guard, but also to act at the right time and gather the power of the martial arts for the direct use of the imperial court.

Because Chu Han has the Voyeur Mirror Method, coupled with the fact that his actual martial arts are too high, and he can also escape from the earth, although Cheng Jinghu has inquired in many ways, but because she has never been able to find strong evidence such as the corpse, and there is not much foreign aid available, she can only swallow the reasoning answer in her stomach, which has become the first regret in her life. Fortunately, she successfully persuaded several major sword sects to serve the imperial court, which was considered to be a combination of merits and demerits, Dongfang Ling Tiancai did not pursue it, but she no longer trusted her in her case-handling ability as much as she did at the beginning.

Cheng Jinghu was also helpless, the real Jin Feng didn't see anyone alive or dead, although there were people from Huangweilou in Shunfeng City who were sent by her, but most of them were just to inquire about the news, not even Tianxuanwu Zun, let alone have all kinds of magical powers. If you have those amazing monstrous skills, you won't be willing to nest in the county town of Huangweilou to support your family. There are Buddha aunts in Weiguo Temple who practice earth escape techniques, and there are even old nuns who practice her heart and divine feet in the Buddha Heart Temple, which never asks about the world, but she does not have so much authority and face to send.

And this time in the abduction of the young family of the official, she did not gain nothing, but she has not yet entered the last step~~ Find a place to hold the young dependents.

At the same time, the resistance encountered in the process of investigating the case also makes people feel jealous.

He Yun, who was recruited in Shunfeng City, has entered the army and has been reused by the Oriental Pearl as a striker;

Although Tianxuanwu Venerable Chen Wangbo was subdued by her by various means, he was too self-respecting and arrogant, and was only willing to use it for her own use, driven by her alone, when the official child family case occurred, she was sent out to collect evidence for another case, and he was not around, otherwise, it should be much faster to find the place where the young family was held.

She was able to find out through various visits that the young relatives were not killed, they were all alive, and they were not sent far away from her hometown, and they were still in the city, but the people who kidnapped the girls were all masters of light work, and they ran a long way in the air at the foot of their feet, leaving very few footprints on the wall, roof ridge, etc., but the other party deliberately went around in circles. is so painstaking and laborious, it is nothing more than trying to lay down the Ecstasy Array, so that the Criminal Department has no footprints to follow, and they can't find their final real foothold.

Among the officials of the Criminal Department, she and Shang Shu Mo of the Criminal Department are both people who do not have the slightest martial arts, Shang Shu's left belongs to Mu Lanxin and the right belongs to Lu Tianming, but they are not Tianxuan Wuzun, and they are still stuck in the high level of Zhongling and cannot break through.

After all, people's energy is limited, and most of the time and energy of people who are dedicated to being officials are spent on studying, so that they can pass various examinations and embark on a career in official careers.

What's more, among the people who study hard, the family wealth is inexhaustible, and there are even fewer of them, who has so much money for their children to study, and they can still ask a private tutor to teach them martial arts? And the rich children born with the golden key, although there are also ambitious people, but there are many gentlemen, even if there are ready-made good conditions, it is rare to be able to study and practice martial arts at the same time.

And she, Cheng Jinghu, is a bitter child who doesn't even have her own mother and father, and she grew up under the care of her aunt.

Fortunately, although the aunt's side husband is bitter and mean, but the husband is generous, when the aunt is out to earn money and is not at home, she always takes care of her, and when she knows that she has the talent to solve cases, although she does not have extra money to cultivate carefully, she is more caring, which makes her grow up smoothly, she was not abused to starve to death and freeze to death, and she is famous in her hometown.

Now, although she is the director of the Criminal Department, she still lives frugally, and often sends part of her money to her aunt or aunt and father~~ Uncle likes her more and more, and then asks her to change her words, no longer called uncle, called aunt daddy, and she is also willing to have a daddy who loves her, although it is an aunt daddy, but it is also a daddy, it is better than nothing, so she obeyed and changed her words.

invited Lin Daiyu and Wu Zhi to Wangtianlou for dinner, and made her bleed.

In fact, it was the first time for her to spend money on her own, if it weren't for this need, she would really be reluctant, the cost of a meal in Wangtianlou was no better than the cost of a snack stall or tavern in the morning, meals and drinks plus escort costs, which made her extremely painful.
