Chapter 181: Both of them
Things are getting more and more complicated.
According to Ye Yuanpei's theory, Mrs. Lu must have known how many children she had given birth to, and no one knows this kind of thing better than her.
But why do you remember only one?
Ye Yuanpei sorted out all the things, and judged that after Lu Lin died, it was the guy in his shop who went to Jincheng to inform Lu Xiao.
Probably Lu Xiao didn't want Ye Yuanpei to know that he had a brother, so he came back quietly.
He must have wanted to rescue Lu Lin's daughter-in-law, but his behavior was a little low, and he was trapped by horse scum, which made him into today's situation.
Now that Liniang has been rescued, as long as Lu Lin is found, if you don't want to make a big deal about it again, it's almost over.
But the problem is that Ye Yuanpei's people inquired several times in and out of Kyoto City, but there was no news at all, and even Jincheng had a letter to ask, and he didn't see Lu Lin go back.
It's as if the last place he appeared was the gambling house, and it has since disappeared.
Zhuang Siyan also twisted a teacup in his hand, his eyes wandered around the rim of the cup, and he asked for a long time: "Do you think it could be that Lu Xiao knew about the conspiracy of the gambling house and went to assassinate the horse slag in private, but he didn't succeed, but was arrested by him?" ”
"There is such a possibility, but with Lu Xiao's personality, he should not do such a thing recklessly."
Zhuang Siyan didn't dare to agree: "Don't praise your brother, if he is not reckless, can he come back from Jincheng by himself and do such a thing?" Even if we let you know, we won't be blind with both hands now. ”
Ye Yuanpei was speechless, and he was not very convinced, so he could only glare at Zhuang Siyan.
Zhuang Siyan glared back at him bluntly, and the two fell silent again, until the people in the mansion came over to inform them for lunch.
The meals were delivered to the inner courtyard, and when Zhuang Siyan and Ye Yuanpei used to work, they often ate at the same table, even when they went to Jincheng, they were not so restrained.
Zhuang Siyan completely regarded him as a brother, and said while eating: "I'll go back in a while, arrange for someone to intercept the horse scum at night, let's bring him here first, ask Lu Xiao about the situation, and also understand his background, I always feel that this gambling village is weird." ”
Ye Yuanpei: "You have to be careful, there is more than one layer of people inside, there should be a dark place, if you didn't want to probe our bottom last night, it would be really difficult to get out." ”
The two discussed, and in the afternoon, Zhuang Siyan went out to Wen Qingna.
Wen Qing is a person, not to mention other places for the time being, just the ability to make friends with good players in the rivers and lakes makes Zhuang Siyan a little admired.
Like Qing Ran, the six brothers are really all-rounders, and their minds are delicate, and they are many times better than ordinary Ouchi guards.
Originally, Ling Tiancheng gave her four people, which was enough to deal with the general situation, but Ma Zha had fought with her, and it was difficult to deal with, so she had to ask Wen Qing for someone.
When she arrived, Wen Qing was lying on her side on the couch, staring at the file in front of her with a frown.
Zhuang Siyan didn't go to the main door, nor did he notify Wen Bo, he broke into his inner room directly, and when he pushed the door open, Wen Qing glanced at the door.
Then the fire burst on: "How did you get in?" Do you know that men and women are not intimate, and it is very perverse for you to trespass into a man's room like this. ”
Zhuang Siyan looked left and right, and then looked at himself again: "I, man, what are you afraid of?" Besides, don't you have no outsiders in this courtyard? ”
Wen Qing: "Aren't you an outsider?" ”
When Zhuang Siyan heard this, he laughed, glanced at the case file in his hand, and said with some sympathy: "Oh, this Mr. Wenda, there is something to do at this time, holding such a thing every day, it is estimated that you can't get out of bed, right?" But have you ever thought that you look at it useless like this, some things, some people, you still have to go out to find them. ”
Wen Qing looked at her vigilantly, wanting to put away the case file in her hand.
Zhuang Siyan hit him in the heart: "Don't be busy, I gave this thing to Ah Si and asked him to give it to you, and I have already read the content in it." ”
Wen Qing was depressed again and asked her where she saw it.
"Of course it's Chenxi Palace, there are a lot of unjust cases and wrong cases, I'll go over and go around if I'm fine, and I saw this one day, and I feel that you can be interested, so I'll take it out for you to see."
Wen Qing: "You can actually enter and exit the Chenxi Palace?" ”
"Yes, I've always been."
Wen Qing: "......"
He, the imperial brother, is really going to be dizzy, how many lives are involved in the Chenxi Palace, and he even let this girl in?
The scariest thing is that she is exposed to these things.
Wen Qing only cared about blaming Ling Tiancheng, but ignored how Zhuang Siyan knew that this case was related to him?
didn't even think to ask her what she was doing, until Zhuang Siyan explained his intentions.
"I'm here to borrow some masters from you."
Wen Qing: "Didn't I give you four?" ”
"Not enough."
"Do you want so many people?"
"Naturally useful."
Wen Qing looked at her, and finally said, "Let's talk about what to do first, my people are not just anyone who can take them away." ”
Zhuang Siyan thought about it and told him about the gambling bank.
Wen Qing has been in Kyoto City for many years and is engaged in intelligence work, so he should be no stranger to places like gambling houses, and even know the inside story that they don't know.
When Zhuang Siyan told him about the gambling bank, he noticed that his brows were furrowed.
It wasn't until he heard all the words that he spoke: "You'd better not mess with these people for the time being, it's better to check that Liu family." ”
"The Liu family? Do they have any problems? ”
Wen Qing: "I don't know what's wrong yet, but why did you, Master Liu, kill people and rob his wife?" The most important thing in Kyoto City is beauty, where can he not get a new one, he has to do such a thing? ”
There is some truth, it seems that this Liu family is not clean.
But Zhuang Siyan didn't plan to let go of the horse slag, and he had to visit his house at night, so he borrowed six more people from Wen Qing, plus Qing Ran and them, there were a total of ten masters.
Before evening, everyone gathered in an old mansion, and according to the accounts of two people caught the night before, Zhuang Cisco drew a simple map.
She quickly marked it clearly on the map, and the division of labor was also clear, which ones went in to find people, which ones went to catch the horse slag, those who guarded the outside, prevented the horse slag from making other moves, and the broken ones were also arranged one by one.
After these things were done, she sent a message to Ye Yuanpei, saying that it was properly arranged.
After nightfall, the streets of Kyoto City are bustling with activity for a while, but as the night thickens, ordinary shops close one after another, and ordinary people return home.
The rest of the street is a place of drunken fireworks, and most of the people walking back and forth are gentlemen and swingers.
At this point in time, the gambling house had already opened, and the person sent by Ye Yuanpei to monitor the gambling house came back to Xin'er and said that Ma Zha's had gone to the gambling house early in the morning.
Zhuang Siyan divided the people into two, one part went to Ma's house, and the other part followed her to the gambling village.
Because of her experience from the previous night, she changed her makeup today, and with three people around her, plus her, she walked upstairs in pairs.
At the top of the stairs, he was robbed by Ma Boy.
Zhuang Siyan didn't panic, and threw a small ingot to the horse.
She calculated the direction in which the horse slag came out last night, and this time she went up to the second floor and went directly in that direction.
After taking the ingots, Ma Zai, who was about to walk away, ran back when he saw this, stopped them and said, "Guest officer, if you want to play, there are more fields over there." ”
Zhuang Siyan glanced behind him: "What, don't play here?" ”
Ma Zai said with a smile: "This is the boss's study, and it is impossible for outsiders to disturb it." ”
Hey, what this palace is looking for is your boss's study.
Zhuang Siyan handed it out with a look, and the person next to him put the horse boy down.
However, there are too many mistakes in the gambling house, and the second floor is even more, coming and going is either a customer or a horse, although Wen Qing's master is really a master, but a person suddenly stopped talking in front of him, and he didn't stop them, and he hugged a man.
This behavior immediately attracted the attention of others, and more people rushed to this direction.
Zhuang Siyan: "Throw him away, let's go and arrest the surnamed Ma." ”
With a wave of his arm, the horse boy they had killed fell down from the second floor, smashing right on a table that was about to open, and blood splattered and flew into the face of the person who poked his head out to look ahead.
There was an exclamation below, and then it was a mess, some people took advantage of the chaos to collect the silver on the table, some people ran to the door of the gambling house in order to save their lives, and some people didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and they actually went to the second floor to see what was going on.
Zhuang Siyan and the master had already entered Ma Zhai's room.
At this time, Ma Za was sitting behind a large Nanmu desk, still pretending to be holding a pen in his hand, and he didn't know what he was writing.
And opposite him, there was another person sitting, who turned out to be Li Gongzi.
Zhuang Siyan only glanced at them, and said directly: "Both of them." ”
In fact, Li Gongzi was quickly caught by them, but Ma Jun's martial arts were unfathomable.
The three of them gambled indoors for a long time, but they didn't touch the corner of his clothes.
Someone barged in from the outside, and I don't know if they heard the movement inside, or if they wanted to report back on the movement outside.
As soon as he saw that everyone was besieging his boss, he also joined the fight.
Zhuang Siyan was a little anxious, they were few, and they wanted to win by surprise, and the longer the time, the more unfavorable it would be for them.
She put her hand into her waist and considered whether to solve it by extraordinary means, but she didn't expect the horse slag to act first.
I saw that he evaded the round-up of two masters, and one dodged in front of the third person, and slashed at his head.
Although the man dodged quickly, his shoulder was still shaved.
And the purpose of the horse slag was not at all, he quickly swept past the man, his feet on the windowsill, and he jumped out with one rise and fall.
When Zhuang Siyan and the others also rushed to the window, there was no one there.
The horses outside poured in in groups, and they had all been blocked into this small space.
"Jump." Zhuang Siyan didn't think much about it, still carrying Liu Gongzi in his hand, climbed up to the windowsill first, and jumped down.
Liu Gongzi let out a fierce howl like killing a pig, and was slapped on the head by Zhuang Siyan, who fell to the ground: "What is it called, it's noisy." ”
He was immediately silenced in fright, but his eyes were full of fear.
The other three had already fallen to the ground in the next second, pulled Liu Gongzi from Zhuang Siyan's hands, and the group of five quickly walked into the darkness.
