Bidding farewell to Yang Wenchang, Ye Feng and his entourage walked out of Yang's mansion.

Tie ruthlessly turned around and looked at the closed door of the Yang Mansion, and sighed lightly: "I didn't expect that Lord Yang, who usually everyone thinks is timid and afraid, can be such a powerful character. ”

Ye Feng nodded, he really admired Yang Wenchang's keen observation, but he also sighed: "But he still doesn't dare to care." ”

Tie ruthlessly said with emotion: "He is willing to tell us this, he has already taken a big risk." After all, this is Kyoshi. ”

That's right, this is Kyoshi.

He has seen too many officials, and he is also known in various places for not being afraid of the powerful and capable, but once he is transferred to the Beijing Division, the streets here are full of high-ranking officials and nobles, and a grinding disc can crush a bunch of princes and grandsons. This treacherous power struggle is rife everywhere, and one wrong step is a shattered one. Once these originally upright and upright officials offended the powerful, they were often impeached and excluded from afar, and exiled from afar, or they were framed by slander and framed by slander, and they were unjustly imprisoned, and their lives and deaths were unpredictable.

Therefore, the officials who can survive in this Beijing division will either find a backer party to fight against differences and intrigue, or just like Yang Wenchang, no one will dare to offend, because you don't know which case will involve those powerful and high-ranking officials who are all over the world and have hot hands, and which case hides an unfathomable dark conspiracy that will not see the light of day.

After all, this is Kyoshi.

Tie Wuru was still sighing in his heart, but Xie Zhenliang on the side saw that at the corner gate on the side of the Yang Mansion, there was a board car parking to pull goods, and an old man was directing a few juniors to move the vegetables and fruits on the car into the Yang Mansion.

Xie Zhenliang raised his voice and called: "Shengbo!"

The old man turned his head, saw that his eyes were bright, and immediately walked over with a smile on his face and greeted a few people.

Xie Zhenliang introduced to Ye Feng: "This Sheng Bo is a hired worker under Zhao Si, a small landlord who died before, and is responsible for transporting vegetables and fruits to some dignitaries in Beijing every day. He has always been responsible for transporting the daily necessities of our house, so I recognize it. ”

When Ye Feng heard that this old man was Zhao Si's subordinate, he couldn't help but be very interested, and stepped forward to ask, "Uncle Sheng, you are always an employee of Zhao Si's family in the suburbs of Beijing?"

Although Sheng Bo didn't recognize Ye Feng, seeing that he was familiar with Xie Zhen's appearance, he expected that he was also the noble son of which family, and responded with a very respectful attitude: "Exactly, the old man has been helping to eat at Zhao Siye's house, and every day he sends some vegetables and fruits to the nobles in the capital." ”

Ye Feng pointed to the fresh fruits and vegetables in the car and asked, "Zhao Si is dead now, whose family are these vegetables and fruits?"

Sheng Bo sighed: "Although Zhao Siye passed away suddenly, those tenants who grow vegetables still have to live, and the nobles in the capital also need fresh vegetables and fruits, so the old man took the lead and continued to do this business with a few juniors, guarding this stall business for Zhao Siye." ”

Ye Feng nodded secretly, it seems that this is a loyal servant. So he asked again: "Since Fourth Master Zhao is dead, who is in charge of the Zhao family now?"

Sheng Bo frowned: "It's strange to say, since Zhao Siye died, his two concubines also ran away in two days, and now there is no one in charge of the Zhao family, so the old man came out to take the lead, guarding this stall business, waiting for Zhao Siye's family to come to the capital to take over." ”

The two concubines? Aren't they the two witnesses who were there when Zhao Si died? Those are important witnesses, how could they leave behind this stall of business and family property, and did not sell their private shares, but just rolled up some soft and ran away? This is really unreasonable. It sounds like they're afraid of something, hiding from something.

Ye Feng was suspicious in his heart, and continued to ask, "Is there no other person in Fourth Master Zhao's mansion?"

Sheng Bo thought for a while and replied: "It seems that I once heard that he is from the Jiangnan area, and he has no relatives and friends in the capital, and the two concubines were also bought in the past two years." As for whether he has brothers and sisters in his hometown, it is unknown. ”

He sighed, and then said: "Poor mansion, now even the subordinates have run away, all the valuable things have been taken away and sold, and not even a single calligraphy or painting on the wall has been left. ”

Ye Feng originally wanted to go to Zhao Si's house to inquire, but he couldn't help but be disappointed when he said this.

After hesitating for a moment, he asked Sheng Bo the most crucial question: "What do you all think about Zhao Siye's death?"

Sheng Bo didn't answer, he looked at Ye Feng for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Gongzi is from the official mansion, right?"

Ye Feng smiled slightly: "How can you see it?"

Sheng Bo said lightly: "Actually, after Zhao Siye's accident, we have been waiting for the government to investigate and ask us for questioning, but the strange thing is that no official has ever come to us, probably because we are soft-spoken." The questions asked by Gongzi just now were all about Zhao Siye, and they were very detailed, so the old man guessed that Gongzi was in charge of investigating the case in the government. ”

Ye Feng smiled: "The old man has good eyesight!"

Sheng Bo smiled proudly: "The old man has no strengths, but he has read countless people in his life, and he often goes in and out of the mansions of dignitaries, and this bit of eyesight is still valuable." It's just that your government has dragged on in handling the case, and it is really too late to come to investigate after such a long time. ”

Ye Feng smiled apologetically: "What the old man said is, I don't know what the old man thinks about this case?"

Sheng Bo looked at Ye Feng with a bit of sly: "What does your government think of this case?"

Ye Feng said: "The government is still investigating, but everyone is rumored to be a tenant ghost who was forced to commit suicide to take revenge and kill." ”

Sheng Bo smiled coldly: "Nonsense, this is absolutely impossible." ”

Ye Feng frowned: "Oh? But why?"

Sheng Bo said: "No one knows this matter better than us, that piece of land was originally Zhao Siye's, when Zhao Siye took back the land, not only paid the tenant two silver taels, but also arranged other land for him to cultivate, how to talk about the word persecution? The tenant suddenly hanged himself not long after, it was already very strange, this has nothing to do with Zhao Siye, let alone the ghost revenge to kill Zhao Siye Yunyun." ”

Ye Feng retorted: "But the ghost kills people, but someone has witnessed it?"

Sheng Bo's face was full of disdain: "Isn't it just the two concubines who ran away? Those two concubines are all fireworks girls that Zhao Siye bought from the Goolan Stadium on the bank of the Qinhuai River, and they are not good girls." Fourth Master Zhao died, and they couldn't take care of this huge house and property, and they disappeared without a trace after rolling up some soft goods?

Ye Feng was speechless as he spoke, bowing his head and pondering. Yes, the two weak women, as the most important witnesses, ignored the warnings of the government before the case was concluded, leaving behind their huge property and disappearing, which really made Zhao Si's death confusing.

Ye Feng thought for a moment, and then asked, "Does the old man know why Fourth Master Zhao wanted to take back this land in the first place, I heard that he used it to build a new house?"

When Sheng Bo heard this, the expression on his face suddenly became very strange, and he asked rhetorically, "Are you talking about that ghost mansion?"

Not only Ye Feng, but also Xie Zhenliang and Tie Wuru around him were taken aback: "Ghost house?"

Sheng Bo nodded, with a mysterious face: "Zhao Siye took back the land and built a new house on it, but the strange thing is that there is never construction during the day, and at night a group of people who don't know where they come from start to work in full swing, and at dawn no one can see it, every day." And this house was repaired quickly, and it was repaired in more than ten days. ”

Ye Feng frowned: "So strange?"

Sheng Bo's eyes widened: "The strange is still to come." The house was repaired, but before Zhao Siye could move in, something happened, and the house was empty. The empty house was empty and gloomy during the day, and there was no one in it, but at night, the lights were lit up in the house, and there were many people coming in and out, not knowing what to do. When I went to look at it again during the day, it was empty, and there was no trace of anyone staying. ”

Tie ruthlessly said, "Maybe it's the homeless homeless people in the neighborhood who are sleeping in this empty house at night?"

Sheng Bo said: "Originally, we thought the same way, and there were a few brave young people in the neighborhood who went to check on them at night, and before they entered the house, they all fell asleep, and they didn't wake up until the next morning, but they were on a mass grave not far away. So the news spread that the house was haunted at night, and no one dared to approach the haunted house again. ”

After listening to Sheng Bo's words, Ye Feng and the others were a little stunned, Zhao Si's death already felt confusing, and now there is a gloomy ghost mansion, which is only afraid that there is a big connection.

At this time, the descendants who were carrying vegetables and fruits were about ready, and they called Sheng Bo over, so the old man and Ye Feng said goodbye and led the descendants into the Yang Mansion from the corner gate.

Ye Feng turned around and walked thoughtfully, and Tie on the side said ruthlessly: "You can only examine Sun Dianchen's corpse tomorrow, you have been on the road before, it seems that you can have a good rest tonight." ”

Ye Feng shook his head: "No, we have a lot to do tonight." ”

Tie Ruthless couldn't help but be stunned: "What's the matter?"

Ye Feng raised his head and said to Xie Zhenliang: "What Sheng Bo said just now, Zhao Si's two concubines who ran away were bought from the Goolan brothel on the bank of the Qinhuai River, presumably there will be their household registration records, I think the second brother will go on a trip to check their background sources, maybe he can help us find them." It's just that they have to be fast, and if they are a little late, they will be more dangerous. ”

Xie Zhenliang nodded: "No problem, I'm just looking for them one by one, and I must find their information tonight, so don't worry!"

Tie ruthlessly asked, "Then what are we going to do?"

Ye Feng smiled mysteriously: "Now here is Lao Tie, your martial arts are the highest, naturally you protect me, let's go and see the ghost house that makes people talk about it!"

Iron Ruthless's spirit perked up, and he applauded repeatedly.

Ye Feng lowered his head and smiled, thinking secretly in his heart, the two concubines who disappeared, the mysterious ghost house, all the clues suddenly came and were placed in front of them without any effort, and the person who put these in front of them was the seemingly ordinary Shengbo, but this Shengbo, is it really so ordinary?
