Chapter 90: The Bitter Meat Scheme

"How's that... How did you come back again? ”

The man laughed dryly.

Gu Fengxiao raised the steel knife and hung the tip of the knife in front of the man's pen, and said coldly.

"Answer my question."

"If you go back to the mission, my brothers are familiar with this road, and they can pass even if there is no light. And he was also shy in his pocket, so he wanted to save a sum of money for lanterns and candles. ”

The man replied tremblingly.

"Well, the explanation makes sense. Don't be afraid, you two, I have no ill will. I just remembered that the roof of the carriage was kicked by my colleague, and I wanted to compensate you for him. ”

Gu Fengxiao put down the steel knife and explained with a kind smile.

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and their hearts were also relaxed, and they hurriedly waved their hands.

"My brother understands the kindness of the poor master, but the previous poor master has already compensated."

"Oh, it's already been compensated, how much money has been paid, enough to repair the roof of the shed?"

"Enough, enough, enough!"

The two of them nodded hurriedly, just hoping to send the plague god away quickly.

"Don't hide it from the two of you, that colleague of mine is usually very tight. The official of our Immortal Division is very strict in discipline, so it is not unusual for him to compensate you with money, but if you say that you will be compensated in full, I don't believe it. I'll take out the money he paid you both for, and I'll take it for him if it's not enough." ”

"It's really enough, don't bother you."

"I said, take it out, I'll see."

Gu Fengxiao, who was still kind, suddenly changed his face, and once again put the steel knife on the man's shoulder and said sharply.

Because he has been by Rong Fei's side recently, he has learned a lot of skills and experience in solving cases, so after leaving before, the more Gu Fengxiao thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong with the two.

The first question he asked was that in such a dark environment, he drove without a lantern. Such abnormal behavior is either a ghost in their hearts, or what the two of them are doing is an ulterior motive.

In addition, it is located at the very edge of Kyoto, and the people who live here are all poor people, and every copper plate spent must be carefully budgeted, and it can be saved. In response to that sentence, the communication was completely relied on roaring, and the rush was completely dependent on walking. Mo said that there was no one on the street at this time, and even in the daytime, it was impossible for the two of them to receive business here.

Therefore, the presence of such a carriage, though it is just an extremely ordinary carriage, at this time and place, is itself a very strange and abnormal thing.

So they turned back and blocked their way.

After some inquiry, Gu Fengxiao also keenly noticed the panic between the two of them.

It's not the fear of ordinary people when they see the official errand, but the panic of wanting to get out as soon as possible because they are afraid of being discovered.

Feeling the coldness and sharpness of the steel knife around his neck, the man took out a dozen copper coins and a treasure note from his arms with a sad face.

Gu Fengxiao glanced at the copper coins in the man's hand, about fifteen or sixteen, took the treasure banknote and unfolded it to see that it was clearly marked with five taels of denominations.

"All this he paid you for?"

"Uh-huh."

Seeing the man nodding, Gu Fengxiao had even more doubts in his heart.

Hou Chunhua's slamming of the door is not a waste of fame, in the half a year of getting along, everyone in the Immortal Division invites guests to dinner, and every time Hou Chunhua is invited, he must arrive, but he has never invited everyone back, and Hou Chunhua's body will always only have copper plates, and the number will not exceed thirty Wen.

So this person must be lying.

Gu Fengxiao had already determined that there must be something wrong with these two people at this time, but it was not good to arrest them before finding evidence, otherwise with his understanding of Rong Fei, abuse of power would be punished extremely severely.

Gu Fengxiao nodded quietly, returned the treasure money to the man, looked up at the roof of the car that was kicked and said.

"If you don't say that my colleague slammed the door, this amount of money is not enough to repair the carriage, so I will go in and carefully check the extent of the damage, and then pay you some more money."

As he spoke, Gu Fengxiao was about to jump into the carriage, but was stopped by another man who had been silent.

"Poor master, this money is enough, so I won't bother you."

The man who had been answering also stopped in front of Gu Fengxiao and said with a smile.

Gu Fengxiao saw the panic in the eyes of the two of them, obviously there was something hidden in the carriage or... Person!

Night... Uninhabited streets... A carriage that does not march with lanterns... Two men who behaved abnormally...

All this makes it difficult for Gu Fengxiao not to link it with the disappearance case.

Although no evidence has been found yet, based on these clues and suspicions alone, Gu Fengxiao feels that he can already give an explanation to Rong Fei. So he was no longer polite, shook out the chain tied around his waist, and couldn't help but put it on the two of them.

"Oops... What are you doing here, sir..."

The two of them were naturally unwilling to be restrained and wanted to resist, but where was Gu Fengxiao's opponent, they were kicked to the ground one by one.

Binding the two of them with chains, Gu Fengxiao lifted the curtain and looked inside with a fire fold.

How big the carriage can be, even if the light from the fire fold is faint, it is enough to see clearly.

There are windows on two sides, seats on three sides, a hole in the ceiling, and some wood chips scattered on the floor below, and nothing else.

Hey! There are no suspicious people or things, could it be that I am too sensitive and mistaken?

Gu Fengxiao put down the curtain suspiciously, walked to the two people who were tied up, and was about to ask why he had to stop himself just now since there was nothing hidden in the carriage, when his eyes suddenly froze.

This time, Gu Fengxiao jumped directly into the carriage and got into the carriage, and used his fingers to pull a piece of sawdust aside, revealing a cluster of things that looked like hair with a similar color to sawdust.

Gu Fengxiao brought the fire fold closer to take a closer look, and found that this was the cross-section of the hemp rope, which was spread out to show this appearance because of frequent use and wear.

The hemp rope was sandwiched between the two wooden boards, Gu Fengxiao pinched the hemp rope with three fingers and lifted it gently, and a wooden board was cocked along with the hemp rope.

……

Zhu Sheng left, although he didn't say anything before leaving, Rong Fei was already sure that his identity as a royal prince could not escape.

The small courtyard of the case library was quiet again, and Rong Fei waited for a while before activating the Insight Divine Power of the Wall, wanting to confirm whether there were people arranged by Zhu Sheng lurking around through the sound.

The noisy and harsh voice penetrated into his ears, Rong Fei held back the pain, and confirmed with experience that there was no one else in the Kyoto Prefecture at this time except for himself, the palace Yin Chen Xiusong, the master Kong Xiwen, and the two officials on duty.

Just as Rong Fei was about to put away his supernatural powers, he was attracted by the conversation between Chen Xiusong and Kong Xiwen.

Since comprehending the Insight Divine Power of the Partition Wall, Rong Fei will be very cautious every time he uses the Spirit Hearing Divine Power. He's not a pervert who likes to eavesdrop on other people's privacy, but he can't precisely control the specific distance and range of supernatural powers, so he hears a lot of voices that shouldn't be heard or don't want to be heard every time.

Like here and now.

"Don't do this, my lord, it will hurt."

This was Kong Xiwen's voice, and from his tone and tone, Rong Fei heard hesitation and panic.

"Don't worry, I'll be a little lighter."

Chen Xiusong said.

"Your Excellency... My lord... Don't be like this... Don't do that..."

Kong Xiwen's tone became more and more hurried and panicked, even with a hint of pleading.

Then the two seemed to scuffle together, and from time to time there would be the sound of tearing clothes and heavy gasps.

Rong Fei, who heard it clearly, couldn't help but shudder, and goosebumps appeared on his body.

This... This... It's so exciting!

In his previous life, Shi Rong Fei liked to study history very much, and knew that in some periods of ancient times, the style of men and men was once prevalent, and it was even considered an elegant thing.

As the saying goes, men and women only reproduce, and men and men are true love.

In novels set in ancient times, rich scholars are accompanied by scholars. In addition to being responsible for taking care of the daily diet of scholars, scholars also have an important job.

It is to help scholars solve their physiological needs.

At this time, it seems that there is also such a relationship between Fu Yin Chen Xiusong and Master Kong Xiwen.

On the premise of not touching the law and basic morality, Rong Fei adheres to the three principles of non-opposition, disapproval, and non-discrimination for this kind of behavior. But there is still some resistance in the senses, and you have to put away your magical powers in a hurry, so as not to hear unbearable sounds.

Bang~

"Ahh

The sudden collision sound attracted Rong Fei's attention, followed by Chen Xiusong's cry of pain.

Hey! Could it be that the situation has reversed, and Kong Xiwen has been attacked?

Is it okay like this?

Rong Fei suddenly had a thirst for knowledge, and continued to keep his spiritual powers and wanted to hear it all.

"Your Excellency, you... You... Oops, a lot of blood. ”

"Go quickly, do as I say, or this wound will not be in vain."

"Alas~"

Then Rong Fei heard hurried footsteps, followed by Kong Xiwen's panicked shouts.

"Come on~ Come on, adults faint, come on!"

The sudden shouting shook Rong Fei's eardrums with a tingling pain, and he rolled his eyes and almost fainted.

Hurriedly put away the spiritual listening powers, endured the heartache, and used the Xuanbing Creation Pill to alleviate the injuries in both ears.

After the pain was relieved, Rong Fei rushed towards Chen Xiusong's study.

One of them was ordered by Kong Xiwen to go to the backyard to drive the carriage over, and the other put Chen Xiusong, who had broken his forehead, his face covered with blood, and his eyes closed and he looked unconscious, on his back, standing at the gate of the small courtyard and waiting for the carriage to arrive.

"Yikes! Master Chen, what's wrong? ”

Rong Fei, who was belated, asked in surprise when he saw this.

Chen Xiusong's eyelids, who were lying behind the servant, trembled lightly a few times, and continued to pretend to be dizzy without making a sound.

Kong Xiwen, who was full of anxiety on the side, explained.

"The adult was overworked, so that his qi was deficient and blood was lost, and he just got up too violently and couldn't stand firmly, and his forehead hit the corner of the case and fainted. I'm going to send the adults to Lang Zhong for treatment now, and the yamen is tired of Rong Catching the head and helping to take care of it for the time being. ”

"Ahh It's not good, I'm not from Kyoto Prefecture after all. ”

Rong Fei, who knew the truth, only felt that Kong Xiwen's acting skills were good, but he had to answer seriously while being funny.

"Rong Zhutou don't worry, I'm just letting you take care of it temporarily, and I'll send someone to inform Ji Tongzhi in a while. Alas, the adult is seriously injured, and I am afraid that he will not be able to serve for some time, and the burden on the side of the government can only fall on the body of Ji Tongzhi Ji. Master Ji is humble and polite, you have also seen it, and it will not affect Rong Zhutou's case. ”

"Oh oh, that's good, that's good."

At this time, the official came in a carriage and left with Chen Xiusong and Kong Xiwen.

Sent to the gate all the way, watching the carriage disappear into the night, Rong Fei had a thoughtful expression on his face.
