Chapter 21: The Burning of the Hundred Flowers Building
Xiao family, a spy knelt in front of Xiao Yi and said, "Xiao Gongzi, it's not good, the two dead soldiers we sent out are dead?" ”
Xiao Yi said with a questioning face: "What? Both of them died? ”
Spy: "Yes Xiao Gongzi, the news from Baihualou came back, they died of bleeding from seven holes and died in bed, and the owner of Baihualou said that they died from taking too many strong drugs." ”
When Xiao Yi heard this, he suddenly scolded in his heart: "Two stupid coins, I asked them to go to Baihualou to do something, give them two bottles of strong medicine, and ask them to secretly put them in the drinks of those guests, so as to cause panic in Baihualou, who knows that these two stupid coins are actually two old color coins, and they try the medicine themselves, the strong medicine was used to deal with the demon clans below the Three Realms, and those bear demons, tiger demons, and leopard demons will go crazy if they eat them, not to mention two people, it is strange if they don't die, and I blame me for not explaining it at the beginning, only saying that it is strong medicine, Ay! ”
The spy broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, he really sympathized with the two dead soldiers, and at the same time felt sorry for the two girls in Baihualou.
Xiao Yi walked out of the Xiao Mansion, rode the little mare and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.
In the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion, Xiao Yi said to Duguyue: "Two people died in Baihualou tonight, and the corpses are still in Baihualou, so let's watch your performance, Brother Yue." ”
Duguyue snorted coldly and said, "After tonight, there will be no Baihualou in Seoul." ”
……
Outside the Baihua Building, Duguyue rode a little mare in front, followed by hundreds of law enforcers.
Duguyue jumped off the horse and gave an order: "Surround Baihualou for me." ”
The law enforcers scattered one after another, quickly surrounding Baihualou.
The guy who guarded the door of Baihualou hurriedly ran in to report: "Landlord, it's not good, it's not good, it's not good, the son of the City Lord's Mansion has brought someone to surround our Baihualou." ”
The landlord Wu Yumei received the news, hurriedly ran out of the Baihua Building, looked at Duguyue and hurriedly said, "Ouch, hey! Isn't this the son of the City Lord's Mansion? What kind of wind blew you here, I don't know what is the matter with so many people brought by Gongzi to surround my Baihualou? ”
Duguyue said with a smile: "It turns out that you are the owner of Baihualou!" Someone reported tonight, saying that you Baihualou killed two people, I received the information, and brought someone to find out, and I hope that the owner of the building will do something. ”
The landlord Wu Yumei smiled and said: "Son, you are still young, do you know who is behind Baihualou?" It's your father, Lord Lord, you better go back and ask your father to take care of it! ”
Duguyue's face turned hideous in an instant, and she laughed: "I didn't expect it!" This Baihualou is still my father's property, my good father! Why have you never mentioned it to me? ”
"Someone will come in and collect it for me, and I must find those two corpses."
A small team of people directly pushed Wu Yumei away, rushed into Baihualou, and began to search room by room.
The room was kicked open one after another, causing many men to scold, but as soon as they saw that it was the law enforcers of the City Lord's Mansion, they all honestly lifted their pants, left the room, and ran to the hall to see what was going on.
Wu Yumei's face darkened and said to Duguyue: "Good boy, you have a kind, I will go to the City Lord's Mansion to find your father, and see how you explain to your father when the time comes." ”
Duguyue made a gesture of please, Wu Yumei turned her head angrily, went to the courtyard to bring a horse, rode it, and ran quickly towards the City Lord's Mansion.
The enforcers rummaged around Baihualou and finally found two bodies in the firewood room in the backyard.
"Report to the son, two bodies were found in the firewood room, what should I do next?"
Duguyue walked into Baihualou, looked at the men and women in the hall and said, "I'm sorry, Baihualou will be closed from now on tonight, you all go home!" ”
A man stood up unconvinced and said: "If you say you won't be open, you won't be open!" Tonight, the labor and management have already given the silver taels for the night, and the labor and management will not leave. ”
One man after another stood up, "I also gave the money for Bao Ye, why drive us away, you think you are the son of the City Lord's Mansion, it's amazing!" Isn't it reasonable? ”
Duguyue's expression was terrifyingly cold, and she said with a smile: "If you want to be reasonable, I will reason with you." Tonight, Baihualou deliberately killed two people, and deliberately concealed it, I now suspect that everyone present is the same party, and bring all these people back to me. ”
At the sound of an order, the law enforcement team began to arrest people, which frightened the women into discoloration.
It's chaotic, all of a sudden, in the hall of Baihualou, it's all messed up, and one by one men began to flee desperately, but no one in Baihualou, which has already been surrounded, escaped.
More than 300 men and women were arrested, and Duguyue looked at the hall that was now quiet, broke the jar of old wine, and threw a torch on it.
A raging fire ignited in an instant.
Duguyue looked at Baihualou and said to herself: "After tonight, Seoul will be in Baihualou." ”
……
Wu Yumei finally arrived at the City Lord's Mansion on horseback, and said to the law enforcer guarding the door: "Go and report quickly, just say that the owner of Baihualou has something urgent to see the Dugu City Lord." ”
The enforcer immediately replied: "The city lord has already retreated, and he said that he can't see anyone, so you better go back." ”
Wu Yumei took a few steps back, and couldn't help but think in her heart, it is estimated that all this is a ghost made by the city lord, what kind of person is the city lord, she knows very well in her heart, it is estimated that the city lord wants to cross the river and tear down the bridge.
In the city, the flames lit up the dark night.
When Wu Yumei saw the firelight, she shouted in her heart that it was not good, and hurriedly rode on her horse and rushed towards Baihualou.
Yufu, Wu Cheng looked at the direction of the fire, and felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly rode the little mare and ran towards the fire.
Seeing this, Yang Xiao and the five of them also ran towards the place where the flames soared into the sky.
The Yu family, the Xiao family, hurriedly sent spies to see what happened in the place where the fire was soaring?
……
Originally, the light in the night could always guide the confused man to find the right direction, which was a warm harbor for men and a paradise for men.
Now the fire was raging, and countless men began to bow their heads in silent mourning in the direction of the flames, and there were women who applauded happily.
A horse galloped to the fire, and then stopped, and a woman jumped off the horse, her eyes were blurred, and she knelt down, and her mouth neighed, and tears had quietly fallen.
The last quarter of an hour was the most lively place in Seoul at night, and at this quarter of an hour, the building was empty, only to see the raging fire, which slowly turned the building into dust.
Another little mare galloped to the fire and stopped, and a handsome young man jumped from it, who stared blankly at the raging fire, and then heard the voice of a woman kneeling on the ground and crying.
Wu Cheng hurriedly walked over, helped his mother, and asked curiously, "Mother, what happened here?" ”
Then, five more people came quickly, and they stood beside Wu Cheng, did not speak, just quietly watched the fire.
Wu Yumei cried and said: "It's gone, everything is gone, Baihualou, which I have worked hard to operate for more than ten years, is gone." All this should be a conspiracy of the Dugu City Lord.
From the two of them tonight, inexplicably died in the room, in the city lord Duguyue brought people here, and when I went to the city lord's mansion to ask the city lord for help, the city lord said that he was in retreat to avoid me, and Baihualou was burned, this damn Dugu city lord must be his conspiracy, he wants to put our mother and daughter to death. ”
Wu Cheng, Yang Xiao and a few others heard it inexplicably, but they just guessed in their hearts, this Wu Yumei must have some ulterior secrets with this Dugu City Lord.
Wu Cheng asked curiously, "Mother, are you very familiar with that Dugu City Lord?" ”
Wu Yumei swallowed the words several times before she could say them, and she repeated them several times before she said, "The Dugu City Lord is your father." ”
Wu Cheng was stunned on the spot, from the memory he remembered, there was no father, and others scolded him, saying that he didn't know whose wild seed it was, because his mother was in the skin and meat business.
Yang Xiao behaved the most calmly, the three women's eyes widened, looked at Wu Cheng, and then looked at Wu Yumei, their hearts were full of gossip, they wanted to listen to the follow-up, and they didn't say anything to break this embarrassing scene.
Yu Cheng was also shocked, the city lord of Tang Tang actually had a leg with the owner of Baihualou, if this news spread, it would definitely cause a sensation in the entire Seoul!
