Chapter 234. Trouble with henchmen

Chu Yunfei has always believed that a scholar like Sunan will naturally abide by the duty of Confucianism and "be silent and strange". But Sunan was obviously an exception, and his devout attitude towards the Buddha made him feel a little strange.

"Master Su has put so much effort into it, not just to let me enjoy the scenery of Luoyang, right? Is there something important you want to say to me? Otherwise, Master Su would not have deliberately arranged it like this. Finally, when the two of them were alone, Chu Yunfei said the doubts in his heart. He looked at the still energetic man in front of him, a little more serious.

Sunan didn't answer, but turned to look into the distance and said lightly: "What Childe said is good." People in officialdom are always a little uncomfortable. Eat the king's lu, bear the king's worries. Luoyang has now made a lot of trouble because of the rumors of relics, and I am afraid that there will be some chaos at that time, which is related to the safety of Luoyang City. Therefore, I would like to ask Gongzi to find the relics as soon as possible and complete the emperor's mandate as soon as possible. Also, what I want to talk to Childe about is Mrs. Xiang......"

"Mrs. Xiang?" Finally getting to the point, Chu Yunfei was overjoyed, but his face was still silent, "Are you concerned about the case that happened in the Xiang family many years ago?" I have carefully reviewed the dossier and it is very vague. Compared with those records, there are some folk rumors that provide more clues. ”

Sunan nodded with a heavy expression, and said continuously: "Childe's guess is not unreasonable. In fact, Mrs. Yixiang's current strength, if she is just an ordinary thief doing the case, why will she wait until now and not close the case? ”

The two were silent for a while. Chu Yunfei didn't want to say anything. He was actually more curious about Mrs. Xiang's true identity, and the word "wang family" was only briefly mentioned in the file about her husband's family. What is the identity of the so-called wang family? If so, why would a woman like Mrs. Xiang be allowed to show her head?

Sunan hesitated and said, "It stands to reason...... These words should not be uttered by me. But there is nothing to hide until now. You have also seen Mrs. Xiang's appearance, which can be called a country and a city. After the accident in their family, she was lonely and helpless, in order to live, so she became a certain ...... The outer chamber of the dignitaries. In order not to wronged her, the official specially built another courtyard for her in Luoyang City. The dignitary's wife also knew about it, and she could only pretend not to know for the sake of her children. ”

This is consistent with my own reasoning. Mrs. Xiang once said that although her family was in business, it was only a medium-sized family in Luoyang City. And she suddenly became rich, and her business became bigger and bigger, but two years after the fire, if there was no external force, how could a little woman have so much energy? The identity of an important member of the DPRK and China, coupled with strong financial support, is the secret of Mrs. Xiang's sudden wealth.

"Mrs. Xiang has been in Luoyang, but she can do business in the capital. I think that the one who can have such a great energy is not a first- or second-grade master, but also a king, right? Chu Yunfei frowned slightly, "How could her case have dragged on for so long and still be unsolved?" She only needs one word, and the entire Henan Mansion is mobilized, and she is afraid that she will not be able to find the murderer? ”

A flash of shock flashed in Sunan's eyes, and he sighed slightly: "No wonder everyone says that Gongzi Bingxue is smart, and he pointed out the key point in just a few words." You have also seen that the case has changed hands several times, and I don't know how many people have checked it, but after all, it was a case from many years ago, and the investigation was also in vain, and it has been delayed until now. In fact, if it weren't for the sudden arrival of Gongzi in Luoyang, Mrs. Xiang would not have planned to bring up this case again. ”

It seems that the relationship between Sunan and Mrs. Xiang is definitely more complicated than I imagined. Isn't it possible...... A thought flashed through Chu Yunfei's mind, in fact, as long as he compared it carefully, he could guess who was Madame Xiang's mysterious husband. However, he was not interested in the rumors in the boudoir. For now, it's important to investigate the case first.

This time, it was obvious that Sunan was prepared, and without waiting for Chu Yunfei to continue asking, he frowned slightly, looked at the sun that was slanting westward, and said: "I'm not like Chu Gongzi who can see everything, but it has taken a lot of effort in the past few years." Those who can hide relics are certainly not ordinary people. In Luoyang City, the most suspicious thing is a simple figure. ”

Sunan is pretending to be mysterious again? Without waiting for Chu Yunfei to speak, Sunan pointed to a large compound that stretched to the foot of the mountain not far away and said, "There, there is a county lord who lives according to legend. It is said that she is not surnamed Zhao, but she once married the Zhao family and became a princess. But when she heard that the prince was dying, she moved here from Bianliang. That's the only place we don't go in Henan Province. So if Childe has a heart, it is better to go over and take a look. ”

Chu Yunfei's face was embarrassed, he never thought that he would meet the so-called county lord here, let alone that Sunan would happily hand over this clue to him. But what lies ahead? Longtan Tiger's Den? Or is it a gentle township?

"Young Master Chu has always been very good at dealing with women. I couldn't do it anymore, and I visited the house several times, but I was kicked out. So this matter, only Chu Gongzi can't do it. Sunan arched his hand and said again.

A beautiful woman originally had a fatal attraction to Chu Yunfei, not to mention a county lord who lived in seclusion? Everything was the same as Chu Yunfei's guess, and when he entered the courtyard, he understood that his conjecture was not wrong. The only surprise was that the legendary county lord was much more open-minded than he imagined. She looked at herself with bright eyes like a bright moon, and smiled indifferently: "I didn't expect you to come anyway." A few days ago, I heard that a young prince of Chu arrived in Luoyang, but he didn't expect to come to me in person. Could it be ...... Is it to investigate the case? Or is there anything I can do to help you? ”

Such a straightforward question really made Chu Yunfei a little embarrassed. The woman in front of her finally made her understand what it meant to be extravagant. The county lord in front of him is surnamed Chai, and he is a descendant of the Chai family in the Later Zhou Dynasty. In that year, Taizu Chen Qiao mutinied, and the imperial robe was added, and the Zhou Chai family was forced to give way. The former minister has become a king, and the identity of the Chai family, which has been defeated, is naturally embarrassing. However, out of consideration for his reputation, Taizu retained the wealth of the Chai family. It is rumored that these people are all side branches of the Chai family, and the heirs of the Zhou Emperor Chai Rong have long been removed. After all, a woman from a family has a nobility that is difficult to hide, plus the county lord who used to be a princess, what kind of secret is hidden in her? Why did Sunan guess that the relics might have something to do with her?
