Qi Tang was speechless, Ye Fuliu also raised his head and let him stare at it, Wei Huan saw it in his eyes, and finally said, "Enough." ”

The entanglement between Qi Tang and Ye Fuliu was eight points of speculation in his heart. Qi Tang was deceived by someone at the end of April, and Ye Fuliu was not in the town for a few days. Qi Tang was confused and didn't mention it, Ye Fuliu obviously knew Qi Tang, but now he deliberately pretended not to know.

But what is the truth and does it matter?

He just repeated the words he had made when the merchants held a banquet that day in front of Qi Tang.

"Little lady Ye accepted me a piece of gold cake."

He stared at his slender fingers and said lightly, "In late April, she was looking for Langzhong in a nearby county town for me. In turn, they came to Qi Langzhong and Lin Langzhong. There are both human and physical evidence. ”

Wei Huan's testimony became the last straw that overwhelmed the beams of the house. Qi Tang's eyes were slightly red, and his voice was hoarse.

"So, isn't she?"

Ye Fuliu stood under the courtyard wall, Wei Langjun really opened his mouth again to protect her, she bent her eyes happily, and pointed to herself confidently:

"Of course I'm not. I, Ye Siniang, am I short of money or family business, should I do a good business or not, and defraud you by pretending to be a Qinglou Oiran, what am I trying to do? Cousin of the Wei family, you have found the wrong person! ”

Qi Tang muttered to himself, "Yes, she deceived me, demolished a house for me, and didn't take anything away, what did she want." She must have accepted the benefits of the enemy's family and deliberately humiliated me and the Xinguo Mansion. At present, this Ye Siniang is not short of money or family business, one is a good citizen who is in charge of business, and the other is a lowly Qinglou Oiran...... So, did I really recognize the wrong person? ”

Wei Huan got up and walked to the edge of the wooden building, the railing lowered her eyes, her dark inky pupils looked particularly focused when staring, Ye Fuliu stood under the courtyard wall, her eyes collided in mid-air, she raised her head and blinked.

Wei Huan retracted his gaze and said to Qi Tang, "You admit your mistake." ”

——

Qi Tang left in despair.

When I went out, I forgot to take two famous doctors from Jiangning Mansion with me.

Wu Langzhong and Xu Langzhong stood outside the door of the Wei family with the medicine box on their backs, smiling bitterly.

"It's a good thing that you and I don't go to the Wei family for treatment." "Go to Lin Dalang's house for another night?" "Let's go!"

——

Ye Fuliu hummed a little song and sprinkled a handful of millet in the courtyard, and several big white-feathered pigeons cooed and pecked at the ground.

The 100-foot height above the Wei family's wooden building is as clear as a wash. A large flock of white and gray carrier pigeons circled in flocks, and the pigeon whistle sounded in the summer sky south of the Yangtze River.

Qi Shizi's big trouble was easily solved, much easier than expected, and a large stone hanging in the air easily fell to the ground.

With a handful of millet in her hand, she sat under the porch and fed the pigeons, and she vaguely felt that she had forgotten something.

What did you forget? There's been so much going on lately that I can't remember.

Maybe it's the little Nanmu box that never opens the secret lock? After tossing for so long, it has become a matter of concern.

She got up humming a little tune and briskly went into the house to continue emptying the little box.

——

Pigeons fluttered into the wooden building and pecked in the cat basin sprinkled with grains.

A faint gurgling sound sounded in my ears.

It was the sound of ice cubes in the ice book melting into water in the heat of the summer and flowing into the water storage tray below.

Wei Da approached Bingjian, opened the lid of the upper box to take a look, and opened the bottom water storage tray.

"The water on the plate is almost full. The crushed ice in the upper lattice of the Ice Guard has almost melted. Fortunately, the Ye family did business and gave a box full of whole ice cubes. ”

As he spoke, he opened the secret door on the lower level of the ice gate, ready to take a piece of ice and break it up, and put the broken ice in the upper lattice.

Squatting on the edge of the secret door, he was about to dig out the ice inside, and Wei Da was stunned.

Then he shouted in surprise, "Why are there so many bricks in there?" ”

"Bricks?" Wei Huan, who was on the side of the railing, stopped stroking the pigeon's gray feathers and glanced sideways.

The secret door opened wide to the left and right, and he saw directly the outermost wall, melting into a translucent wall of ice.

It was too hot and the ice walls melted. What was exposed behind the remnant ice wall was not the Ye family's claim of "giving away a whole box of ice for free", and there was not even an extra piece of ice at all...... Rather, it is a neatly stacked half of a box of stone bricks.

Wei Huan was silent instantly.

…… What kind of profiteer tactics is this??

Chapter 29

Wei Huan sat in the only rosewood chair in the wooden building, looking at Bing Jian and pondering.

He remembered something.

On the eve of the Ye family's banquet for the merchants, Ye Fuliu insisted on sending Bingjian over that night. At that time, he felt a little abnormal.

He took out a piece of the stone brick hidden in the secret door of Bingjian and placed it at hand at this moment.

On the old stone bricks, there is a relief carved with exquisite lines of the human palace, which is beautiful.

Where is this ordinary stone brick? It is clearly a rare antique Han brick, which is valuable and has no price.

More than 200 precious antique Han bricks, why are they hidden under Bingjian?

Of course, it was hidden by the people who made the ice book.

Why do you want to hide it in the Ice Treasure and send it to the neighbor's house? Of course, I don't want to be discovered.

Why not want to be discovered?

Wei Huan held the Han brick with exquisite patterns in his hand and stared at it dumbly for a while.

Turning around, he instructed Wei Da, "Go out now and call Qi Tang back." I have something to ask him. ”

Qi Tang, who hadn't gone out yet, was urgently called back by Wei Da.

"So, that woman who calls herself Qin Shuiniang, after just three days with you, should go down to be your outer room?"

It's not a glorious thing, Qi Tang's ears were faintly red, and he said stiffly, "It's just a Qinglou, am I not worthy of her?" She deserved it, and I didn't think much of it at the time. In hindsight, I didn't even have the shyness and twist of my daughter's family, which is very suspicious! It must have accepted the benefits of the enemy, and deliberately approached me, without doubt! ”

Wei Huan slowly stroked the stone bricks on his knees, and the exquisite palace pattern swept his fingertips.

"Deliberately approaching you, it should be unmistakable. But after receiving the benefits of the enemy, he deliberately humiliated and took revenge on your Qi family...... Not necessarily. How did you prepare the house you gave her? ”

Qi Tang gritted his teeth and said, "That house was picked by herself." I said that I would choose a fine house for her in the best part of the city, but she said that it was too expensive, and she said that she didn't like the noisy people in the city, so she had to ask me for a house outside the city. I happen to have a quiet little house at the foot of the mountain outside the city, the location is not very good, and the house is very cheap. At that time, I didn't think much about it, but I felt that Shui Niang was sensible and considerate, so she directly gave her the title deed...... I'm blind! ”

Wei Huan ignored whether he was blind or not, and asked again: "Is the house outside the city a new house or an old house?" ”

"Old house! Refurbished a few times, still very old. The beams and tiles are all old styles of the previous dynasty. I was afraid that I would wronged her, so I specially purchased a whole set of brand new fine and soft fabrics and sent them in, all of which were the best and most expensive items on the market.

"I want to lift her up, how much hatred does she have for my Qi family? For fear that no one would see my laughter, the wall was torn down, the two door panels were laid on the ground with green tiles, and the demolished beams were neatly put together into two 'wells'! I went out for a while, and when I met my classmates, I would draw a well! ”

Wei Huan listened calmly, his fingertips slowly stroked the pattern of the stone bricks, and remembered that the two hundred or so stone bricks in Bingjian were also neatly stacked, not chaotic at all, and opened his mouth to praise, "Do things neatly and orderly." ”

Qi Tang: ?

When Wei Huan heard this, he had already made a rough outline of the causes and consequences, and raised his glass to take a sip of warm tea, "This Qin Shuiniang shouldn't have much grudge against your Qi family." Tearing down the house neatly may be convenient for you, the main family, to repair. ”

Qi Tang said angrily, "There's something wrong with her!" There is no grievance with my Qi family, and there is nothing to do to demolish the house I gave her! ”

The slender fingertips tapped the stone bricks on his knees, and Wei Huan laughed silently.

Immediately put down the teacup and instructed Wei Da to send off the guests.

Qi Tang: ??

He called him back against the sun on a hot day, didn't even give him a sip of tea, said two or three words without a head or tail and drove him out, the third cousin of the Wei family is not very normal!

He Wei Huan gained power in the capital a few years ago, how to call for wind and rain in the north, anyway, he Qi Tang didn't see him in the south. Now that this cousin has been relieved of all his real power and official positions, leaving only two or three fictitious titles, and only taking a domestic servant to live in seclusion in an unknown town, isn't it powerless and powerless?

Why did the father insist that he, the prince of the country, come over to the Wei family with a famous doctor's generous gifts, and eat deflated in the Wei family one after another?

Qi Tang couldn't figure it out, so he brushed his sleeves away angrily.

Wukou Town's visit was extremely unpleasant. But no matter what, now that the people have finally met and a generous gift has been sent to the door, Cousin Wei San does look sick, but looking at him talking and moving, he does not look like a person who is so sick that he is dying, and his father can explain when he goes back.

Qi Tang unloaded his burden and walked out of the Wei family's door easily.

Leading seven or eight Hao slaves out of the door for more than ten steps, he suddenly felt that there were two people missing behind him, and looked back carefully, the two famous doctors brought from Jiangning Mansion, people?! Why is it gone??

Without the diagnosis and treatment of famous doctors, it is difficult to explain when you go back. Seven or eight Haonu hulala scattered all over the alleys, staring at the scorching sun overhead, asking around about the whereabouts of the two famous doctors.

Qi Tang stood in the shade next door to the Ye family and waited.

After waiting for a while, the famous doctor could not be found, and two columns of eight strong men came to him, and the official who was headed by him stopped in front of him, and said with a smile, "There are neighbors who report to the officials." ”

The county knows the seven products, the county Cheng eight products, and the officials on duty in the county are not in the product. Qi Tang didn't pay attention to these officials at all, and his eyelids didn't move, only squinted at the little guy next to him.

The little guy who followed him was a neat-tongued person, holding his head high to teach the officials,

"Why are you on an errand? Why did you come so late? Hurt my family Langjun was chased and beaten with a stick! There was a misunderstanding on the Ye family's side, and my family Langjun was tolerant and generous, so he didn't care about the Ye family. You go and drag out the servant of the Wei family called Wei Da and beat him hard. ”

The eight officials laughed heartily.

"In broad daylight, the Wei family was shouting endlessly, and the words disturbed the Ye family next door, shouting something 'kicking open the door of the Ye family'. Wei Da stopped you from committing murder, and now you dare to instruct officials to oppress the good people? You guys are so bold. ”

directly hooked Qi Tang's neck with an iron chain, and even locked away all the slaves with the master.

"We are ordered by the county to take care of the law-abiding Ye family. You are so bold, you dare to disturb the good family on a sunny day and in the daytime. Brothers, lock up the county yamen, and first beat up the killing rod and talk! ”

Qi Tang: ?

This poor and remote official doesn't have long eyes, but he doesn't know him Qi Tang?

Qi Tang struggled and refused to be locked away.

"You are so daring! I'm the letter of Jiangning Mansion - hmm——! ”

The official skillfully gagged the suspect with a cloth. In the past few years, everyone dares to swagger and deceive, and the wandering prodigals all say that they have big backers in Jiangning Mansion, who cares.

——

The movement outside the door faintly entered the inner courtyard, and Ye Fuliu didn't pay much attention to it.

She spent the whole hour fiddling with the seven-ring locks, trying seventy or eighty kinds, but none of them were right.

Su Qiu couldn't stand it anymore, "It's just a small wooden box, and it's not a great object, it's not worth spending a lot of effort on it." If the lady really wants something to put in the box, it is better to split the wooden box. ”

Ye Fuliu let out a long sigh, "The fun is in unlocking." Split the wooden box, isn't that boiling the crane and burning the qin? ”

Turning the seven-ring lock, the seven copper rings engraved with words on them spun in circles.
