Chapter Twenty-Six: It's a Trap!
At this time, Sui Ge was wearing a mask, and Ji Liren was wearing a mask, and the two were not afraid of being recognized, but if they really wanted to fight, the two of them might not be able to retreat with their whole bodies, and the two people standing next to the man were both masters.
Sui Song gritted his teeth, how could there be so many ancient martial arts masters!
"We didn't hurt your girl and guests, but there are some things that need to be asked clearly, and I hope the landlord will forgive me." Sui Ge had already guessed his identity, but he didn't expect that his every move was in the hands of others. Here is, after all, his bow.
The owner of the drunken flower building heard the girl say with the song today, there is no detailed information, only that the owner of the building is often absent. When the two met just now, Sui Ge noticed that the little guys along the way were very respectful to him, and his identity was self-evident.
The landlord looked at Sui Ge and smiled: "You are a clever girl." Do you like the sweet wine I just ordered someone to deliver? ”
"Thank you for the kindness of the landlord, we will have a great time watching tonight." The song began to be on guard. The man recognized them.
Ji Liren stood expressionlessly in front of Sui Ge, ready to face the battle at any time.
The landlord didn't care, sat down by himself, looked at the two people on the bed meaningfully, and then looked at Sui Ge and said, "Today, the official government is offering a bounty outside, is that you?" ”
Sui Song replied: "Yes and what, no and what?" ”
"Yes, you will be useful. No, you may not be able to get out of the Drunken Flower Building. The landlord laughed wickedly, and the ghast behind him became even more muddy.
Sui Ge pondered that even if the two of them could escape, they might be seriously injured, so he was not nervous, and tried his best to relax himself, and replied, "I am." ”
This kind of Qinglou will not refuse a fugitive like her, even if she knows her identity, she will not let the government come to the door, after all, this is self-immolation, and there are many innocent places behind this Qinglou.
"My surname is Bai, I don't know if Sui Yu knows me." It's obviously a question.,But the tone of the landlord is sure that he must know with the song.。
He pondered for a while.
surnamed Bai, running a green building. She seemed to think of something, but couldn't grasp the message.
"Bailing Hall White Jade Building." Ji Liren on the side said lightly, he looked at Bai Yulou and said: "A year and a half ago, I washed the Shangshu Mansion in the capital and hyped up the revenge for Bai Susu, a Qinglou woman who was accepted as a concubine, and finally all the sect members of Bailing Hall were ambushed and suppressed by Jinyi Wei on the outskirts of the capital, and the whole army was annihilated, and the leader Bai Yutang was nowhere to be found. ”
Only then did Sui Ge remember that at that time, the imperial court offered a reward of one million just to capture Bai Yutang, and there was no limit to life and death. Sui Ge once thought that this was a big fish, but he couldn't find a trace of Bai Yutang after searching for more than a month, so he gave up. After entering Zhengzhou Mansion, she once read the scroll, but the content of the scroll was suspected to have been deleted, and it was probably the same as the one that was passed on outside, but none of the scrolls explained who this Bai Susu was, let alone why Bai Yutang found Shangshu Mansion.
Bai Yutang was very interested in Ji Liren: "Oh? You know so well, don't you know who you are? ”
Ji Liren looked directly at Bai Yutang: "Bailing Hall used to be the largest intelligence organization in the capital, why don't you check the identity of the contemptible person, Lord Baitang." ”
Bai Yutang said lightly: "Didn't you say it just now, all the sect members of my Bailing Hall have been wiped out. ”
Ji Liren's eyes shone like a sharp blade: "The headquarters of Bailing Hall is on the border. ”
Bai Yutang lost his smile at this time, looked at Ji Liren dangerously, and said, "Do you want to join our Bailing Hall?" It's a pity that we don't add outsiders. ”
Ji Liren pulled Sui Ge and sat in front of Bai Yutang. Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, but didn't say anything.
"A year ago, I went back to Beijing to restore my life, and when I left Beijing, I saved a person in the wilderness, he was covered with scars, his tongue was gone, and one of his hand tendons and veins was broken, and I took him back to the army to let the military doctor treat him for more than a month before he could get out of bed." Ji Liren seemed to be talking about a trivial matter, and said: "The man said that his home was on the border, and he left after the injury was healed, and he said that he would come back to repay my kindness after going home and asking for sin." I didn't come back until more than a month later. Ji Liren said as he took off his mask.
Bai Yutang glanced at him lightly and said, "It turns out that you are the general. What happened to Bailingtang was told to you secretly? ”
Ji Liren shook his head and said: "Later, an internal secret letter came from the capital, saying that a prisoner in Bailing Hall had escaped from the prison, so I guessed it. Darkness never mentioned Bailing Hall, and I never asked. He only said that he had borrowed five years from you, and after five years he would repay my kindness and go back to you to find your life.
Bai Yutang didn't speak, he just kept looking at Ji Liren. After a while, he said: "Since it is an old acquaintance, then I will give the two of you a discount for today's matter, the two wanted are about to hide in my drunken flower building, stunned my girl and guests, I always have no reason to let the two go, what do you think someone should do?" ”
"The White Hall Master should ask, what can we do for the White Hall Master." Sui Ge finally understood what Bai Yutang meant. He had guessed her identity from the first time he saw her, and her identity could do things for him that he couldn't, so he would stay here tonight, waiting for the two of them to take the bait.
The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.
Bai Yutang smiled and clapped his hands: "Sui Arrest is worthy of being a well-known arrester in Zhengzhou Mansion, your ability to handle cases has spread all over the south of the Yangtze River, I heard that the governor of Zhengzhou Mansion is about to be promoted because he has solved many cases, and he has made a lot of contributions to the arrest." ”
"Tell me, what do you want me to look up."
Sui Ge's only ability in this Qingyun country is to investigate the case through modern cognition and dialectical thinking, and Bai Yutang found her, just because he saw her talent for investigating the case.
"Whatever someone asks you to check, will you check?"
"Then it depends on what the White Hall Master wants me to check." Sui Ge said calmly: "I am a person who is very afraid of death, and I hope that the master of the white hall will not be too embarrassed." ”
If they really want to die, the two of them may not lose. Sui Ge pinched the remaining medicinal powder in his hand in his sleeve, the amount was not much, but at least he could knock down a large one.
Bai Yutang seemed to see through Sui Ge's plan, laughed out loud, and lazily leaned back, just next to the female attendant, who was determined and let him stay next to him without moving. Bai Yutang said: "Just treat it as a deal, you help me investigate a small case, and I will help you escape from Handan." After a pause, he pointed to Qian Yuanze on the bed and said, "He is regarded as a great gift from me, if you want to end him, I can help you deal with the aftermath." ”
Ji Liren whispered in Sui Ge's ear: "I don't think it's appropriate." ”
I groaned with the song for a while. Let's not talk about whether Yin Dongsheng can leave smoothly when he comes, even if they can leave, it will inevitably expose Ji Liren's identity. If Bai Yutang represents a powerful information network, if there is an opportunity to cooperate with him, it will be very beneficial to Ji Liren's current situation. In the modern military, the more powerful the information network, the more military preparations can be made in advance, and it will also be of great benefit to her in investigating cases on a daily basis. Looking up again, Sui Ge's eyes were firm: "What case does the White Hall Master want to investigate, I will do my best." ”
Bai Yutang admired Sui Ge's decisiveness very much, and immediately sat up straight, looked at Sui Ge, and said word by word: "Help me find out how Bai Susu died." ”
Before Bai Yutang left, he gave Suige a two-month deadline, and also gave Suige a small gold sign with the word "Bailing" written on it, promising that if you need to use Bailingtang in these two months, you can go to the Qinglou or teahouse with the word "drunk" at any time and hand it over to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper will arrange it. Before walking out of the threshold, Bai Yutang turned his head and said to Sui Ge as if jokingly: "When I was investigating you, I found some very interesting information, such as the incident between you and that girl two years ago. If you're interested, I'll ...... when you're done looking into the case."
"No need." Sui Ge refused before he could finish speaking.
Ji Liren obviously felt the tightness of Sui Ge's body.
Bai Yutang smiled playfully, and then left.
Ji Liren keenly felt that Sui Ge's emotions fluctuated a little because of Bai Yutang's words just now, so he patted Sui Ge's shoulder and changed the topic: "Now we have time to ask him." ”
With the song "um", because of Ji Liren's carefulness, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The two stayed in the room for half an hour, and after asking Qian Yuanze's words, the two left silently and returned to the room. After returning to the room, they found that Bai Yutang asked them to help them change to a top-level wing room, and they were entitled to be VIP entertainers.
Sui Song sarcastically said: "The treatment of doing things for the rich is really different." ”
In the dead of night, the two of them did not feel sleepy, and at this moment their brows seemed to be tied in a dead knot. Qian Yuanze's words were a fog for them, getting thicker and thicker, making them unable to see the direction in front of them.
Qian Yuanze didn't know that there was a "Shanglong Winery" in Luoyang, he didn't know what xanthate was, and even he didn't know Chen Da at all, and he didn't know who was doing the red cake business in the Qian family. If the red cake they destroyed with the song a few days ago was the patron of the Qian family, then the patron was likely to be the mysterious man and King Yu. They wanted to snatch the jade seal, privately make and sell drugs for financial gain, instigated Chen Da to provide information about the army and disrupt the campaign to frame Ji Liren, if all this is related to the struggle for the throne, it is still reasonable.
"You said earlier that Chen Da sent you a secret letter, and I have always wondered why I want to leave a different clue in my stomach since I want to send a secret letter. I thought he was trying to be cautious, but now the information in his belly has nothing to do with the secret letter or the information we have now. After thinking about it for a long time, Sui Song still let the question return to the final starting point: "There is a problem with the note in Chen Da's stomach." ”
Ji Liren's face was tense all the time, and he tried his best to think about it for a long time, but he couldn't come up with any clues. When the two discussed the clues in this way, Ji Liren was about to let Sui Ge rest first, and planned to wait for Yin Dongsheng to come and analyze again, but saw Sui Ge suddenly knock on the table with his hand.
"Ah Si, when the crown prince first ascended the throne, who in the court reacted more?" The root cause is still in the prince's body.
Ji Liren thought about it for a while, and remembered that it was the third prince Duanyang Wang Lingxu who reacted most fiercely in the court. Wheel ability, the three princes are much better than the crown prince, he has a good relationship with many vassal kings and ministers in the court, and he is the son-in-law of General Wuwei, and General Wuwei commands the forbidden army, and most of the ministers in the court prefer the three princes. Only on the issue of the border, the three princes insisted that the army was too expensive and needed to be greatly reduced, and that they should live in peace with the barbarians in peacetime, and advocated peace rather than war. On the contrary, the crown prince Ling Jin strongly supported the policy of strengthening the army of the Qingyun Kingdom, and promoted administration, weakening the power of the vassal king, and offending many old ministers in the court. The crown prince's mother is the emperor's favorite concubine, and she has been raised by the queen who has only one princess since she was a child, or for this reason, the emperor canonized Ling Jin as the crown prince despite the complaints of the court.
Ji Liren shook his head and said, "Except for the third prince, I don't have the impression that anyone has a particularly big reaction. ”
Sui Ge looked at the flickering candle flame on the table, her beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and said, "Then we will have one more enemy in the shadows." If you want to get your troops, you must be the one who wants to fight for the imperial power, let's assume that the king of Duanyang is the same as the mysterious man and the king of Yu, they stole the jade seal and made drugs to make money in order to prepare for the throne. At first, we thought that it was King Yu's group that plotted against Chen Da, but in fact, we were in the wrong direction, what if it was another group of people who plotted against Chen Da? ”
Ji Liren became serious, "You mean the person who killed more than a dozen members of his family?" ”
Sui Ge's eyes deepened: "The person who killed him should be the one who killed his whole family." If the person was killed by the King of Duanyang, and was sent to Xuzhou after being killed, how could King Yu find Chen Da's body and the jade seal on his body so late. The only explanation is that there is another wave of people waiting for you, and you may be right to guess that the person who killed his family was not a bureaucrat but someone from a third party. We also have a potential enemy, and it is the note that this man forced Chen Da to swallow, he firmly believes that you will find Chen Da, and deliberately wants to lead you to that place, as for the intention, I don't know. But I knew that note was a trap. ”
