Chapter 49: Traces (2)
"Yo, our third brother is here."
Yun Feng was taken to the main hall, just in time to see Yun Jitong holding tea and looking at him with a smile.
"Father, Uncle Duan." Yun Feng was puzzled in his heart, but he still saluted respectfully on his face.
"Feng'er, come here this time, but do you have something to tell your Uncle Duan?" Yun Jitong asked.
Yun Feng wasn't sure if Duan Qingyin had told Yun Jitong about Duan Yiming, so he didn't say what he had found. After lunch, Yun Jitong pulled Yun Feng into the carriage home.
"Father, why are you at Uncle Duan's house?" Yun Bong couldn't help but ask.
Yun Jitong opened an eye slit and looked at him, and just as he was about to speak, Yun Feng said, "There's no need to lie, I don't want to hear it." ”
"It's worthy of being my Yun Jitong's son, and he's also a little fox." Yun Jitong nodded with satisfaction.
"Father doesn't want me to meddle in the family's affairs?" Yun Bong guessed.
Seeing that Yun Jitong had no expression on his face, he was up and down in his heart, and he couldn't be sure, but he still said, "It doesn't seem to be." ”
After thinking for a while, he guessed again: "That's Duan Yiming's business...... There is a big problem with Miaozhuju and Danxuelou? ”
Yun Jitong showed a kind smile, pointed at him and said, "I learned badly from the girl of the Shi family." ”
"Father, is this a tacit acquiescence?" Yun Bong was not diverted by him.
"What forces are behind me that I can't move?" Yun Bong guessed again.
Yun Jitong changed his gentleness and gave him an eye knife, "If you don't want the girl of the Shi family to have an accident, this matter will end here." Tomorrow, you will take Liu Luo to hunt down Red Wing, and you must give the Duan family an explanation. ”
When it comes to dragonflies, Yun Feng is very puzzled, he checked his question, what does it have to do with dragonflies, besides, dragonflies left Shenglong and helped Hua Qian find Huayu, where would it affect her.
There is no basis for my father's words. Forgive the son for not being able to obey his fate. Yun Bong replied.
"Do you really want to look?" Yun Jitong didn't laugh angrily, and his smile was full of treachery.
At first, he thought that his father was determined to stop it, but now he seems to want to refuse and welcome, deliberately mentioning his curiosity and rebellion, and supporting him to investigate.
"Father, father, what's the clue?" Yun Bong didn't even notice that he was stammering.
"You and the girl of the Shi family, you are actually checking the same thing." Yun Jitong showed an unfathomable smile.
"Same, same thing?" Yun Bong was even more confused.
A few days ago, the dragonfly flying pigeon passed a book and asked him to help check the caravan that often walked on an official road. After he found out, he found that there was a caravan that often did business with Beiluo and was a little strange, so he circled the dragonfly.
"Father means that I can combine the two cases?" Yun Feng turned his head and asked. But Yun Jitong was already asleep.
Yun Feng wanted to wake up his father and ask again, but it was not polite, so he jumped out of the carriage and went in the direction of Liu Mansion.
The disappearance of Huayu is related to the scenery of the rivers and mountains, if the two cases are refined, it is the relationship between the scenery of the rivers and mountains and the family of Yin Shang.
What will it be like?
The scenery of the rivers and mountains involves military secrets, and the family of Yin Shang ...... If a family falls, it hurts the muscles and bones, and if the three major families fall, it will move the foundation of Yin Shang.
"Senior brother, why didn't you come in after standing for so long?" Liu Luo pushed Yun Feng's arm, and Yun Feng reacted that he had already arrived.
"Liu Luo, are you familiar with the Mu family?" Yun Feng asked.
"What's wrong?" Liu Luo asked rhetorically.
"I want to visit the Mu family."
Although Liu Luo didn't know what he was going to do, he still answered truthfully: "The relationship between our two families is not bad, I still have a baby kiss with Mu Huai, but I will go to her house, it is more embarrassing." ”
"How?"
"Mu Huai is three years older than me, I was raised by her when I was a child, she is like my biological sister, how can I marry my sister." Liu Luo said embarrassedly.
"Do you associate with the rest of his family?" Yun Feng asked.
His family controlled most of the business, and the children of the family were in charge of important business in various places when they became adults. In terms of correspondence, I haven't been to his house much since Mu Huai and Lu went out to manage business. Liu Luo replied.
It's Yun Feng, if you don't investigate a good case, why do you suddenly care about this.
"Liu Luo, the Duan family, your family, and the Mu family that we are investigating now are the three most important families of Yin Shang. Your family controls the power on the rivers and lakes, the Duan family controls the minerals and has first-class forging technology, and the Mu family controls the important trade such as the salt industry, Cao Yun, and grain of the Yin merchants. If something happens to the three of you, Yin Shang will inevitably be greatly damaged. ”
Liu Luo is a smart person, when he clicks here, why Yun Feng is so serious, he immediately understands.
The Duan family has a total of three children, the eldest Duan Yuming guards the mine all the year round, the second Duan Xinming's situation is unknown, and it has not been investigated, and the third Duan Yiming has indeed passed away.
"I'll send someone to protect Duan Yuming." Liu Luo said.
"The day before yesterday, Shaxuemen sent a letter, saying that Meng Hanyun's poison had been controlled, and Meng Hanan secretly left Shaxuemen for some reason and went to Sheshan."
"Meng Han'an? The daughter of the prefect of Chongzhou? Liu Luo asked.
Seeing Yun Feng nodded, Liu Luo was even more puzzled, could it be that Meng Hanan found out something related to his father's death, so he went alone.
"The reason why the Duan family can have their current status in Yin Shang has a lot to do with their organ forging skills, if Duan Yuming has precautions in advance, he can still protect himself. Sheshan is the largest mine in Yin Shang, and the personnel are complicated, so I have to go there in person to rest assured. ”
After making up his mind, Yun Feng simply sent a letter to Duan Qingyin explaining the truth of Duan Yiming's death, and set off after saying goodbye to his parents.
——
Following the woman's trail, the dragonfly trio came to a place called Mystery City on the border of Beiluo, where the most frequent people were merchants, and the caravans of the two countries often traded here, and after getting the desired items, they returned to China, and if they didn't buy it, they continued to move forward and infiltrate each other's countries.
Looking at the people dressed differently and with different skins on the street, the three of them looked embarrassed.
"Sister, is that person really here?" Feng Xu asked with a pout.
“…… Presumably. The dragonfly looked at the flowers.
Hua Qian could only shake her head, indicating that she didn't know what she was doing here. These are clearly two opposite directions to Great Xia.
"Let's find a place to stay first." Dragonfly Road.
The city is located at the junction of cold and warm climates, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, and it is hot when the sun is out and cold when the sun sets.
At night, the three of them wrapped themselves in quilts and huddled together around the fire.
"Sister, why don't you go back to the house and sleep, and discuss it tomorrow." Feng Xu said tremblingly.
"Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow, I'm about to freeze to death." Dragonfly agreed.
"No, if the scenery of the rivers and mountains is really on her, wouldn't it be very dangerous for her to be here alone." Hua Qian refused.
"But it's really cold." The dragonfly wanted to cry without tears, and didn't even want to stretch out its hand.
"It's not, let you go out to find someone, we can sum it up, how to find it tomorrow?" Hua Qian said.
"Don't you have any codes in Huahua City? You put a few for her, and let her come to us. Dragonfly said.
"Yes, yes, during the day, I was already carved nearby, but she didn't come to us for a long time, will it ...... Something went wrong? ”
Dragonfly hurriedly sighed into the palm of her hand twice, comforted Hua Qian and said, "She will definitely come to join us when she sees it, so you don't have to worry too much." ”
As soon as they finished speaking, the three of them heard a noise outside the window, and Feng Xu pointed over there and said, "Sister, there was a dark shadow there just now, could it be that he came to eavesdrop on us?" ”
"Quite possibly." The dragonfly said softly,
"Then don't chase it quickly!" Hua Qian excitedly threw down the quilt and stood up, but the temperature was too low, and she was so cold that she immediately went back again.
"Sister Hua Qian, why don't you chase after you?" Feng Xu asked.
"It's too cold, on such a cold day, normal people shouldn't run out to eavesdrop."
"My sister is right." The dragonfly chimed in. The three of them urged and urged like this, and finally went back to the house to sleep.
Even the moonlight was cold, and the dragonfly looked through the window at the fine moonlight outside, and occasionally a few people passed by with their heads shrunk under the moonlight.
In the distance, Dragonfly saw a slender figure passing by in the gap, and after a while, three people followed him in the direction he had left.
The dragonfly stared in that direction, thinking that she should get dressed and chase out to see what was going on, but sleepiness hit her, and her eyelids did not obey at all, and finally fell into darkness.
The next day, the sun climbed through the doors and windows, shone on the bed, and in her sleep, the dragonfly found herself in the hot desert, with a big sun hanging overhead, and the moisture on the ground was evaporated, and her throat was dry and aching with thirst.
"Save ...... Life! When the dragonfly woke up, she found herself lying on the bed, her quilt already on the ground, and her clothes soaking wet.
"Oh my God, why is it so hot?" The dragonfly took off the padded jacket on his body and threw it on the bed, and went down to pour a glass of water to drink.
She walked to the window and opened it, and there was a path outside, and from time to time a vendor would come out with a load on his shoulder.
"Sister, it's so lively down there!" Feng Fu excitedly kicked the door open and walked over to Dragonfly, staring at her longingly.
"Find someone first, find someone and then play slowly, good~" Dragonfly touched the head of the phoenix and said.
Feng Su pursed her lips dissatisfied, but Dragonfly's attitude was resolute, and she could only be obedient.
"Where's Sister Hua Qian?" Dragonfly asked.
"No one is here, maybe go out." Feng Xu said.
"Are you sure she's not in the room." Dragonfly asked again.
"It's really not there, I've been in and seen it." Feng Xu said resolutely.
Hua Qian was not in the room.
Dragonfly rubbed her chin and remembered the man she had seen last night. I was so sleepy that I didn't know if it was actually happening or if I was dreaming.
"Sister, are we going to find Sister Hua Qian?" Feng Su asked her.
"Let's go, go out with me."
The dragonfly opened the window and jumped straight down, and the phoenix also jumped out after him.
