Chapter 219 Stalking
Han Changdu's face was calm, he wrinkled his nose vigorously, and finally smelled the strange smell emanating from the animal skin, and his face changed slightly: "It's the smell of fire oil." ”
He Denglou nodded: "My lord is wise, it is fire oil, and the places where the fire is found in this house are naturally burned by the flames, only this animal skin on the kang in the main house is soaked in fire oil, and this animal skin should be left over from the burning of the bedding on the kang." ”
As soon as this statement came out, there was nothing I didn't understand.
Who's bedding on the kang should be soaked in fire oil, which is obviously intentional arson.
Who set the fire, and where did the little woman who lived alone go?
Could it be someone in the Qinglong Temple, who is not here to report the news, but to kill people and kill people.
He looked at Yao Qi, who had been pursing his lips and saying nothing.
She always looked calm, without shock or surprise, or regret and heartache.
He had a flash of inspiration, maybe it was not dead and no body, but no one alive, and the little woman who lived in the deep seclusion was afraid that she had left this place before the fire started.
He suddenly asked Yao Qi with a lack of interest: "Yao joins the army, this official is going to return to the Internal Security Division first, does Yao want to join the army together?" ”
Yao Qi smiled as usual: "The young envoy will go back first, and the lower officials will put the matter here in the file, and then go to the Internal Security Division to obey the dispatch." ”
Han Changdui raised his eyebrows, turned his head silently, and walked away in the bright sunshine.
He Denglou looked at Han Changdu's back, and suddenly leaned in front of Yao Qi and whispered: "Boss Yao, how is Young Envoy Han yin and yang today." ”
Yao Qi snorted: "Hasn't he always been like this?" ”
He Denglou shook his head: "He used to be yin and compassionate, but today he is yin and yang, different." ”
Yao Qi's heart chuckled, his eyes narrowed, and he was angry.
Walking out of the burned ruins and walking outside Xinchangfang, the cold air suddenly became very fresh, and even the sunshine became warm and beautiful.
Han Changwan took a deep breath, walked forward slowly, and walked to the Yanqing Gate next to Xinchangfang.
There are several green cloth donkey carts parked at the entrance of Yanqing.
This kind of donkey cart is very common in Chang'an City, and the high-ranking families go out by horse-drawn cart, and this kind of donkey cart is prepared for people who do not have a horse-drawn carriage at home.
If you meet a weak woman who can't go out and can't walk far, she will come and hire a donkey cart like this to go out, which is cheap and affordable.
As soon as Han Changdui walked to the gate of Yanqing, the drivers who were driving the car jumped out of the car one after another, gossiping about business.
"Xiao Langjun, come on, come on, the old man's car is fast and steady."
"My car is new, clean and airy."
"Oh, no matter how new it is, it's also a donkey cart, and you can change it to a carriage if you have the ability."
As they spoke, these people began to slander each other.
Han Changdui shook his head, walked to the door without turning a deaf ear, looked at the young boy who had never stepped forward to solicit business, and said lightly: "Hire for a day." ”
The boy was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, and his face was still a little green, but he was not childish, but tanned, and his hands were clutching the reins, and his head was covered with fine, dense cracks.
His eyes were bright, he smiled woodenly, stretched out his two hands, and rolled his palms.
Han Changwan frowned slightly, it turned out to be a mute: "Two hundred wen? ”
The kid shook his head, but still flipped over his palms.
Han Changwan raised his eyebrows: "One hundred Wen?" ”
The kid nodded, grinning, revealing his white and neat teeth, looking unusually honest.
Han Changwan smiled, lifted the curtain and got in, lifted the curtain on the car window, just in time to see the south gate of Xinchangfang, he secretly thought about it, and said in a sullen voice in the car: "Drive the car to the north gate of Xinchangfang first, and when I let you go, you can catch the car." ”
There was no sound of the boy talking outside the car, only the sound of the whip striking on the wheels, and then the wheel gurgling.
Under the envious gaze of others, the green cloth donkey cart bypassed the streets and alleys and went to the north gate of Xinchang Fang.
Not long after the donkey cart stopped, Han Changdui heard a noise outside, he lifted a narrow curtain and looked out, the bright sunlight shone on his eyes unexpectedly, his eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Follow the person in front." ”
The boy still struck the whip and chased after the donkey cart.
Han Changdui was swaying in the car, holding the curtain of the car with his two fingers, opening a narrow gap, and looking out coldly.
He chose this man to drive at first, because he looked the most down-to-earth.
But I didn't expect this person to be a mute and wouldn't divulge secrets.
He watched the man in front of him walking hurriedly, his own car followed unhurriedly, and there were high cars passing by, and these two green cloth donkey carts were hidden in the middle, which was really inconspicuous.
This kid looks unsightly, he can't speak, but his ability to drive the car is excellent, he only said a word to keep up with the person in front, as for how far and how close to follow, how to follow the grass and not startle the snake, it all depends on this kid's own understanding.
In the swaying and leisurely, Han Changdui gradually became suspicious, this kid looks young, but his ability to track is not small, he has been following for so long, this distance is very good, close to one point will be alarmed, and one point far away will be easy to lose.
He squinted, if this kid wasn't a veteran here, he was extremely talented.
He looked at the back of the man in front of him, and his heart was full of doubts, it was still the girl from last night, the person he knew very well.
The girl didn't seem to notice that someone was following her, but out of instinctive vigilance, she circled around Chang'an City.
Han Changwan was also very patient, so that the driver followed from a distance, and did not have to worry about anything else.
It's not the first time that the half-eldest son has done this kind of thing, and his inability to speak used to be his shortcoming, but now it has become his strength, because he can keep secrets best, and most of the henchmen of many high-ranking families will hire his car when they are ordered to keep an eye on him.
It is precisely because of this that he has developed such an excellent stalking skill.
But at the same time, another stalking sequelae is slowly emerging.
The henchmen of these high-ranking families come out to watch, and most of them are staring at the things that the housekeeper sees outside.
What to visit the flower building to raise the outer room, some of the outer room has more than one.
Most of the results in the end were similar, when the mother of the head of the house took her own action, pressed the little sluts down and beat them violently, beating them until their teeth flew sideways, locks of hair were pulled to the ground, a face with a flowery and moon-like face, and the head was smashed into a twisted and deformed under the countless old fists, and the wailing and angry scolding were endless.
It's called bloody violence, and it's terrifying to look at.
And when the family Langjun finally came out to clean up the mess, he sent a sum of money to the ugly outer room of the beaten evil ghost, and then appeased and appeased his own lady, turned his head to a more hidden place, and raised a younger and more beautiful outer room.
The kid who drove the car saw too much of this kind of miserable world, and couldn't help but be afraid of starting a family.
He thinks that his family is poor and can't afford to support the outer room, but if he marries a tigress like these housewives, he can't stand it.
While the kid was catching the car, he turned around and secretly slandered himself.
There was a handsome man in the car, followed by a young girl, this girl looked like she was dressed up in the cabinet, this Langjun followed others, I am afraid that he didn't hold back any good ideas.
He drove the car steadily and urgently, and he had already secretly buttoned Han Changdui the hat of a flower thief in his heart, thinking about how to save the girl from water and fire, and how to twist the little thief to the government.
Han Changdui didn't know what the car boy thought, he looked at the girl in front of him, seeing that the sun was getting bigger and bigger, and it was about to pass the time for lunch, but she had no plans to stop.
She was the best eater, and the fastest, but she wasn't hungry anymore.
The girl went around Chang'an City again, and suddenly unexpectedly entered the West Market.
Han Changwei was taken aback, there were many people and cars in the West City, and a wrong eye would lose people.
He hurriedly urged the kid: "Hurry, hurry, follow closely." ”
The kid knocked on the horsewhip again, and knew Han Changdu's instructions, so he drove into the West Market.
In the past few days, a caravan from the Western Regions has come, in addition to bringing goods from the Western Regions, it has also followed a troupe to set up a stage in the largest restaurant in the West City to sing operas, and the performance is not an ordinary excerpt, but an illusion.
As soon as the news came out, the people flocked to it as if they were crazy, whether they had money or not.
The illusion of the Western Regions, it's something I've never heard of.
I guess even the saints don't have the eyes to look at it.
With such a Western Regions opera troupe mixed in the West Market, there have been a lot of people in the West Market these days.
The crowd is surging, comparable to the Shangyuan Festival.
As soon as he entered the West Market, there was a buzz, and Han Changdu's brain exploded, and there were people and cars everywhere, and there were boiling voices everywhere.
He didn't care about anything anymore, he opened the whole curtain of the car, stared intently at the girl in front of him who was mixed in the crowd, and kept urging the boy who drove the car to be faster.
When the kid heard this, he secretly slandered himself.
It is a big sin to disturb the crowd on the long street of the horse, of course, he is not a horse or a donkey, but the donkey also has three points of temperament, and it will also scare people.
There were more and more people, and the figure of the girl in front of her was gradually annihilated by the crowd.
The donkey cart was blocked by the surging crowd and could not move an inch.
It turned out that unconsciously, I actually walked outside the restaurant where I performed the illusion of the Western Regions, which was still a long way from the restaurant, but there were already so many people that it was terrifying.
The kid sighed.
There are still many rich people in Chang'an City, and I heard that it costs two taels of silver to watch an illusion, and how many times he has to drive to earn it back.
Seeing that it was difficult for the donkey cart to pass through the crowd, Han Changdui made up his mind, threw a piece of broken silver to the kid, turned over and got out of the car and walked quickly, and lightly dropped a sentence: "This is two taels of silver." ”
The kid was stunned, looking at Han Changdu, who disappeared into the crowd in an instant, his face changed suddenly, he turned red, and he raised his hand and slapped his thigh suddenly.
Oh no, he hasn't caught this person to the yamen yet, why did he let him escape?
