Chapter 32: Wrestling
In the lobby, the smell of food greets you. All the officials were excited, because Chu Yunfei was holding a celebration banquet in advance, which was specially prepared by Prince Liang to treat them. Soon, the joyful atmosphere infected everyone here, and the laughter and fist strokes almost knocked off the roof.
There was a square table in the innermost place, and King Liang, Lord Fu Yin, Chu Yunfei, He Ma and the housekeeper Liang Yunsheng were all sitting together. Liang Yunsheng was a little frightened, in his opinion, this was a gathering between the prince and the people in the official mansion, he was a housekeeper, and he should not stay here. But Chu Yunfei insisted on leaving him behind.
King Liang put down the wine glass in his hand and stared at Chu Yunfei's face a few times: "What kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?" Are you sure you'll find the baby tonight? It can't be a fool's dream, right? ”
Chu Yunfei had an unfathomable look on his face: "This ...... Lord, we have already said that now we only have fun and don't talk about the case. Come...... I toast you. ”
Compared to the bustle of the front yard, the back hall is unusually quiet. The two officials guarding the door sat under the pillars in front of the door, talking about the case in a low voice from time to time. They were very curious about who was in the sedan chair, but Chu Yunfei repeatedly told them that no matter what happened, they couldn't go in, let alone talk to the people inside. At the moment, no matter how curious they were, they didn't dare to get closer to the door, but just stood guard from afar.
One of the officials seemed to hear something, and one of them got up and looked into the room, only to see a shadow flickering and then entering the sedan chair. This made the official startled, and he hurriedly shouted a few times in a low voice, only to hear the people inside whisper: "Don't worry, two big brothers, I'm just a little tired." ”
The two officials glanced at each other and thought to themselves that there was really a woman in this sedan chair? What kind of calculation was Gongzi Chu making to carry her to Lord Yin's house? Wouldn't it be that Gongzi Chu really couldn't solve the case, and bribed the adults with beauties in advance, so that the adults could exonerate him in front of the emperor the day after tomorrow, right?
In fact, not only they were curious, but even King Liang and Fu Yin wanted to know where the sedan chair was carried from, why the person who carried the sedan chair was Mei Xiang Xiaozhu, and who was the sedan chair? Chu Yunfei only smiled and didn't answer, which aroused their curiosity even more.
"Lord Wang, my lord, you don't have to worry anymore. Chu Gongzi's fame is not for nothing, and he naturally has his reasons for arranging it like this. I guess...... It must have something to do with the Treasure Pavilion case, right? Hear people...... Yesterday on the edge of the state bridge, Chu Gongzi made arrangements, arrested a suspect, and escorted back a woman. It is rumored that that woman is the one who plotted against Gongzi Chu in Qianfang Pavilion. Chu Gongzi's ability is undoubted, what else do adults have to worry about? ”
Chu Yunfei's face was full of drunkenness, and he said triumphantly: "You are wrong. That's just the bureau we laid out, and the sedan chair is actually not what those people think, this is called grafting, those people ......"
Homer panicked and hurriedly stopped his words: "Young Master Chu, come...... Try our craftsmanship here......"
Chu Yunfei made a silent gesture: "You don't have to worry, there are no outsiders here." Steward Liang, I won't tell you anything, I think those people are stupid enough, they only remember the smell of the woman's body, remember the woman's clothes, but they don't necessarily know the woman. So I took advantage of this and asked the little brothers in the yamen to disguise themselves as women, change into clothes of similar colors, and then apply that spice, and those people were hooked...... It's a pity that we were too slow to shoot and fell short! Otherwise, if we follow the vine, we can catch them all, which is a pity......"
He Ma looked at Chu Yunfei with tears and laughter, listening to his inarticulate speech, he should be drunk. At the beginning, he repeatedly instructed that this matter must be kept absolutely confidential and not told to anyone. He and his brothers did it, but Chu Yunfei's big mouth actually said it! It's infuriating and ridiculous!
Just when he was thinking nonsense, Chu Yunfei patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry...... I have already made arrangements, and I will definitely be able to find out the whereabouts of those people tomorrow, Jade Guanyin...... Definitely can find ...... too"
"Jade Guanyin!?" Homer gasped. Among the items stolen from the Treasure Pavilion was the National Treasure Jade Guanyin, why didn't they know it before.
King Liang was also taken aback, he couldn't imagine that Chu Yunfei would even say such an important thing. Seeing that Homer and Fu Yin were both looking at him suspiciously, they had to nod: "Not bad." Crush...... It's there. So...... This matter is not only related to the Treasure Pavilion, but also related to us, and even to the national fortune of my Great Song Dynasty. ”
Lord Fu Yin smiled bitterly, he had always thought that the theft of the Jade Guanyin was nonsense, but now he finally understood why the emperor was angry. In this way, is that Guanyin carved from the Liao Empress Dowager Xiao Guanyin?
In the back hall, a servant trotted all the way to the backyard. The two officials looked at him vigilantly, and only then did they relax their vigilance when they saw that the person who came was indeed from the government.
The official spoke, "My lord, let me replace the two, you go quickly." I'll leave it to me. ”
The two officials repeatedly told him not to approach the back hall and left. The official stood at the door for a while, watched the two officials leave, cautiously retreated to the door, pushed the door open and dodged into the house. By the light, he saw that the sedan chair was placed in the center of the hall, and the sedan chair was not opened.
The official took out the knife in his waist, and came to the front of the sedan chair step by step, and while opening the sedan curtain, the knife stabbed into the sedan chair. However, contrary to the plan he imagined that blood was splashed all over the sedan chair, he even brought people with knives into the sedan chair. By the time he came to his senses, the knife that should have been in his hand was around his neck. This change was so unexpected that he couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the face of the person in front of him: "Why are you?" ”
The people in the sedan chair laughed and stunned the officials with lightning speed.
In the lobby, a pair of eyes that should have been drunk and hazy saw two officials come to the lobby, and he knew that a wonderful show had been staged.
