Zuixian Lou is the most famous restaurant in Beijing.

It is said that the guests here are either rich or noble, and even the officials below the third rank in the court are not qualified to go to the private room on the second floor when they come here, and the officials and rich people in the Beijing division are proud to be able to eat a meal in the Zuixian Building.

This is not only because the decoration of Zuixian Mansion is luxurious and magnificent, and it is the best in the capital, but also because there are famous chefs from all over the world here, and the dishes made are absolutely delicious in the world.

Whether it is Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine like the delicate and beautiful Jiangnan women, or Luwan cuisine like a simple and straightforward northern man, or Cantonese and Fujian cuisine like an elegant and elegant Pianpian son, or Sichuan and Hunan cuisine like a muscular hunk with a hot temper, no matter which one, it can make people sigh and praise, and forget to return.

Although Ye Feng and his three righteous brothers are known as the "Four Youths of the Capital", this drunken immortal building has really never come in, not because the things here are particularly expensive, but mainly because there are many senior members of the court and the central government who go in and out of here, many of whom are their father's close friends.

And today, Ye Feng was followed by Tie Ruthless and was directly led to the second floor by Xiao Er of the Drunken Immortal Building. He couldn't help but feel strange in his heart, although Tie Wuru is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, but he is only an official position from the fourth grade, and he is not qualified to go to the private room on the second floor as usual, presumably because of the face of the Ji family, it seems that the strength of the Ji family in the capital is really extraordinary.

Xiao Er nodded and led the two of them to the door of the Tianzi private room, bowed and retreated. As soon as he pushed open the door of the private room, Ye Feng felt that his eyes suddenly lit up.

The decoration style of this drunken fairy building is known for its luxury and luxury, and there is gold and brilliance everywhere, but this private room is simple and plain, and the four walls are hung with picture scroll text panels, which are beautifully framed, and even the inscription on the small screen can be seen to be from the hands of famous artists. The tables and chairs in the room are all antique, obviously not ordinary. The whole room has a completely different feeling from the outside, giving people a strong fresh ink fragrance.

But the most eye-catching thing in the room is a person.

This man was about forty years old, wearing a beautiful plain brocade robe, which seemed to be inlaid with gold wire, and was graceful and luxurious. He wore a huge emerald green jade wrench on his hand, an antique jade pendant on his waist, his hair was combed very neatly, and the golden crown of his hair was embedded with five pearls the size of a dragon's eye, shining brightly.

The most important thing is that this body full of jewels can't hide the light of this person at all, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, rich as jade, just like the person in the painting. He just sat there casually, but there was a temperament more luxurious than the clothes on his body, which made people involuntarily admire.

Seeing Ye Feng and Tie ruthlessly walking in, this person stood up with a smile.

Ye Feng was guessing in his heart that this person was probably someone from the Ji family of the Heavenly Providence Building, and Tie Wuru on the side had already bowed respectfully to this person: "Hello Gongzi Ji." ”

Unexpectedly, this richly dressed Ji Gongzi didn't have a little arrogance, so he hurriedly returned the salute to Tie Ruthlessly: "Lord Tie is polite." ”

As soon as he turned around, he said to Ye Feng again: "This must be Ye Gongzi, right? ”

Ye Feng couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, Ji Wushuang, he couldn't imagine that the person in front of him was Ji Wushuang.

Ji Wushuang, after Ji Tianyu, the old owner of the Ji family in the Providence Building, died suddenly twenty years ago, his only son, Ji Wushuang, who was only twenty years old, took over all the business of the Providence Building. In the past 20 years, Tianyi Lou has always had a prosperous business and a reputation that has not fallen, all thanks to Ji Wushuang's extraordinary talent, he has almost become a legend in the mouth of businessmen all over the world. You must know that there are thousands of businesses in the world of Heavenly Providence Building, and when Ji Wushuang took over, he was even younger than Ye Feng now, just by virtue of this, Ye Feng admired him so much.

Unexpectedly, he could really see this legendary figure now, Ye Feng felt a little excited.

Ji Wushuang smiled very casually, stretched out his arm and invited Ye Feng and Tie Ruthless to sit down and serve tea. Soon a servant brought a good fragrant tea, and the fragrance came to the nose, and when you smelled it, you knew that it must be a rare treasure.

Ji Wushuang gracefully picked up the tea bowl and took a small sip, put down the tea bowl and said ruthlessly to Tie: "Old Tie, have you gained anything from this trip to prison?"

Ye Feng's heart moved, he called Tie Tie ruthless "Old Tie", it seems that they are old acquaintances.

Tie Ruthless shook his head a little frustratedly: "It's nothing special, it's still clueless." ”

Ji Wushuang said with a smile: "Don't be discouraged, as long as you check it, I believe that there will be gains, maybe the clues will automatically surface." ”

Iron Ruthless muttered a little frustratedly, "I hope so." ”

At this time, Ye Feng couldn't hold back a little, and asked: "Master Ji, I am really grateful to Master Tie that on the way to Beijing with his companions, I have been taken care of by Ji Gongzi all the way." ”

Ji Wushuang still smiled: "Why be polite, those are the Ji family's own business, it's nothing." ”

Ye Feng was secretly shocked in his heart, he couldn't imagine that the inn they stayed in along the way, as well as those restaurants and horse shops, were all from the Ji family of the Heavenly Providence Building, no wonder their itinerary was fast and slow along the way, and they were all well understood.

He had that feeling in his mind again, the feeling of being a pawn to be played with at will, and he hated it.

So he said to Ji Wushuang: "As the saying goes, no merit is not lost, we don't know Ji Gongzi, I don't know why we will give such care, it really makes us feel uneasy." ”

The smile on Ji Wushuang's face did not change at all, and he didn't care at all about his words of rejecting people thousands of miles away: "It's a shame to say that if you are courteous to others, you must ask for something, but in fact, there are some things that need to be asked for Ye Gongzi's help." ”

Ye Feng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he didn't believe that the legendary figure in front of him would actually ask him for help: "I, what can I help?"

Ji Wushuang's face revealed a hint of mystery, and he glanced at Tie Wuru: "Maybe this matter has something to do with the case you are investigating, just like I said just now, maybe the clues will automatically emerge after investigation." ”

Hearing this, Tie Wuru couldn't help but perk up, sat up straight, and asked eagerly, "What's the matter?"

Ji Wushuang said with a straight face: "Just ten days before Sun Dianchen's case, a guy in this drunken immortal building died. ”

Tie ruthlessly asked, "You mean the case of Qian Jia who hanged himself?"

Ji Wushuang nodded and said, "Yes, it's Qian Jia's business." ”

Tie Wuru looked a little disappointed: "That case has long been spread in the capital, he hanged himself in full view, there is nothing suspicious, what does it have to do with Sun Dianchen's case?"

Ye Feng didn't know what kind of case they were talking about, and asked, "What Qian Jia, what committed suicide?"

Ji Wushuang said: "Qian Jia is just a junior in the hall of Drunken Immortal Building, originally nothing special, a bachelor, there is a sick old mother at home, and she likes to drink a few sips and gamble on two handfuls on weekdays." Just ten days before Sun Dianchen's death, he went to the gambling house to gamble for three days and three nights, and when he lost all his money and returned home, he found that his long-term sick and bedridden mother was hungry and reluctantly got out of bed to find something to eat, and fell down in the back alley. By the time he was found, he had been dead for a long time. ”

Iron Ruthless looked a little absent-minded, obviously he had heard the story before. Ye Feng heard it for the first time, and he listened attentively and couldn't take his eyes off it.

Ji Wushuang continued: "The old mother died, and Qian Jiadong borrowed some money to set up a mourning hall for the old mother to take care of the funeral. According to local customs, when the deceased returns to the soul on the seventh day, a feast is held to invite the neighbors to drink the defilement wine. At the banquet of the defilement, the guests were full of people who saw the ghost of the dead old mother coming in from outside with a strong wind. I think it must be that this unscrupulous son is greedy for gambling, causing the old mother to fall to her death without anyone to take care of her, so the ghost does not disperse and comes to ask for her life. ”

Ye Feng was stunned by this story, and he waited with some horror for Ji Wushuang to continue.

In front of everyone, Qian Jia knelt down in front of the ghost of his old mother and wept bitterly in repentance, and finally he took out a hemp rope and hanged himself in front of everyone. All the people present were stunned and couldn't move, until the ghost of the old mother disappeared, and everyone woke up like a dream, and at this time, Qian Jia was already dead of anger hanging on the roof beam. ”

Ji Wushuang let out a long breath and ended this thrilling narration, while Ye Feng was still immersed in this bizarre story, and only asked after a while: "What does the government say?"

Tie Wuru snorted coldly: "The person in charge of this case is the timid and incompetent Jingzhao Yin Yang Wenchang Yang, there are so many witnesses who prove that Qian Jia hanged himself, what else can he say? Of course, it was a hasty matter." ”

There are also many eyewitnesses, and the same ghost has come back for revenge, this Qian Jia's case and Sun Dianchen's case have so many similarities, but one of these two people is a senior military attache of the third rank in the DPRK and China, and the other is just a junior in a restaurant who is greedy for wine and gambling, what is the connection between them?

After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Feng suddenly raised his head and asked Ji Wushuang: "What does Gongzi Ji have to do with this Qian Jia, why does the death of a small running hall still need to work for you? Besides, with Gongzi Ji's financial resources, it is not difficult to find out the cause of his death, why ask us for help?"

Ji Wushuang smiled, he seemed to have guessed that Ye Feng would ask these questions: "First, Qian Jia is an employee of the Drunken Immortal Building, and the boss behind the Drunken Immortal Mansion is down. Qian Jia's death was too bizarre, it had been spread in the capital, making people panic, and after his death, several cooks in the restaurant secretly ran away in private and went to other homes, thinking that the restaurant was not clean. Now, if Qian Jia's death is not investigated, it has seriously affected not only the Drunken Immortal Building, but also the reputation of my Ji family's Heavenly Providence Building. In business, reputation is the most important thing, so this matter is by no means a trivial matter, and I must take care of it. ”

Ye Feng nodded secretly, it turned out that the Drunken Immortal Building was also the property of the Ji family in the Heavenly Providence Building, it seemed that this was not only a restaurant to make money, but also a place for the Ji family to contact and make friends with important ministers of the imperial court, so it was no wonder that this Ji Gongzi was so anxious.

Ji Wushuang continued: "Second, this case involves the return of unjust ghosts, and it is so similar to Sun Dianchen's case that it must be related, but Sun Dianchen's case was investigated and handled by Dali Temple appointed by the emperor, and I can't interfere, so I can only use the hands of the two." ”

He raised his head and looked at Ye Feng with a smile: "Ye Gongzi is now famous all over the world, and even a bizarre mystery like Lin Suifeng in Tingtao Villa can be solved, with your wit and carefulness, you will definitely be the best choice for this case." Therefore, since Ye Gongzi set off to return to Beijing, I have been waiting for you here for a long time. ”

The series of top hats made Ye Feng a little ashamed, his face was slightly red, and he could only lower his head and say repeatedly: "It's over, it's over." ”

Tie Wuru sat on the side and looked at Ye Feng coldly, and sighed secretly in his heart, I don't know if this kid is smart and careful, but his experience is indeed immature enough, and he doesn't know what his surname is when he wears a few high hats.

Investigate the case? The ghost committed the crime, and there were no clues, so check the ghost! Alas, I'm afraid I'm really going to investigate the ghost this time.
