Chapter 791: I'm going to cut through the mess with a quick knife

Yasukuni was in the middle of the dynasty, and very few people wrote books for him.

This is also in line with the convention of literature and history: the conclusion can only be concluded after the coffin is closed.

However, Lou Shiliang died on the eve of the fall of Yasukuni, and the people who wrote for him could not see him with their own eyes and talk to him in person, so what he wrote might not be objective.

In this case, the best way to get close to the truth is to find a biography written by a famous person.

For example, Li Helin's.

A master like him is very strict with the historical evidence, and the reasoning he makes is more convincing.

Regarding the teacher, He Xiaoyuan also mentioned it some time ago. In the past, because the eldest disciple actually led the army to attack Youguo, Li Helin announced to the outside world that he had severed the master-apprentice relationship with Han Zhao. However, after Xiao Mi came to power, the relationship between the two countries was greatly eased, and there was a treaty of good-neighborliness and mutual assistance.

Han Zhao and his wife took the initiative to go to the teacher's house and knelt for three days and three nights to apologize. The eldest apprentice chased and killed the avant-garde Guoduanjun, Li Helin's anger dissipated a lot, and when he saw his favorite third apprentice, He Xiaoyuan, also came to kneel and plead, he finally relented.

After that, Han Zhao used his water grinding kung fu, soft grinding and hard bubbles, and finally invited this famous person from the west to Wei Ting to give a lecture to Xiao Mi. Li Helin also hoped that the new emperor would not go astray again, and he might be able to play the role of supervision, and finally agreed.

Now that Li Helin is in Shengyi, it is best to find an opportunity to visit. Yan Saburo said this to himself, and then opened the book in front of him.

He had already done a cursory scan before, this time to take a closer look.

According to Li Helin's inference, the possibility of Lou Shiliang's suicide cannot be ruled out.

How did Lou Shiliang die? Yan Saburo asked Chitose a long time ago, but she was vague. Later, he asked in a hurry, and she said that Lou Shiliang's health has not been good, and he is most likely to die of illness.

After all, she didn't see it in person.

The mystery has never been solved, and Yan Saburo saw Li Helin's inference again, and he felt reasonable.

Lou Shiliang has always carried a wooden bell with him, that is, Chitose was with him at that time, how could he not see his death?

Unless, on his deathbed, he deliberately supported Chitose in case she stopped him.

If Li Helin was not wrong, why did Lou Shiliang commit suicide?

The older people get, the more they want to live and love to live, Lou Shiliang died at the age of sixty-nine, just a little short of reaching the age of antiquity. What a brilliant man he was, how could he kill himself?

When he first met a thousand years ago in Yicheng, he heard her say that the owner of the wooden bell did not end well.

Did Lou Shiliang fall under such a curse?

Now that Yan Saburo is the owner of the wooden bell, will this curse continue to him?

After reading through the whole book, Yan Saburo's doubts did not decrease but increased. There are at least two key points that are not mentioned and cannot be mentioned in any of the books:

First of all, what was the last Tianheng mission that Lou Shiliang took over, and did this directly lead to his death?

Secondly, after his death, how was the wooden bell placed, and why did it end up in the city lord's mansion in Yicheng?

Since Yan Saburo got the wooden bell, his state has changed from stealing to going with the flow. Now that he has settled down and the exercises are about to be completed, he is even more vigilant about the past of the wooden bell and Chitose.

There's a big mystery here. He had a hunch that if this matter didn't get to the bottom of it, he would be in big trouble in the future.

I don't know how long it took, but a white ball trotted all the way into the study from outside.

Yan Saburo saw it with its tail held high, and knew that it was in a happy mood.

He closed the book and put it aside: "What kind of treasure did you make?"

The cat jumped on the desk and kicked his arm a few times: "We made a pink rouge and wanted to name it 'Peach Blossom Tears'." Well, that's the color. ”

It meowed twice at the peach branch outside the window.

Yan Saburo turned around and happened to see the powder hanging on the branches, which was so tender that he couldn't bear to look at it.

A few pink butterflies flew over, unwilling to leave for a moment.

The cat looked down at the table, "Hey, what did you just look at?"

"It's just an idle book. Yan Saburo hugged it into his arms, and it was a flurry of kneading, and the soft soft hairs were suddenly messy. He kissed it on the forehead again.

This action is provocative to the cat, it doesn't like it, and screams, "Stop, what are you doing!"

He didn't stop, and the cat struggled to scratch a few times before it broke free from its clutches and fled quickly.

Huang Da remembered that he was entrusted with an important task, and the next day he rushed to follow Li Kailiang and went to the main store of Tianfulou.

Li Kailiang knew that he was a domestic servant brought by Yan Saburo from Chunming City, which was different from an ordinary subordinate, and he was also quite polite to him, and invited him to take a carriage to his destination together.

"Vested Yan Gongzi appointed, does Brother Huang have a plan?"

"Yes. Huang Da knew that he was going out to run errands to represent the face of the master, so he waved his hand and said, "Dismissal all the workshop workers and rehire new people." ”

"......" Li Kailiang was stunned, "all dismissed?"

"yes, cut through the mess with a quick knife. The idiom blurted out, and Huang Da was complacent, "There are only a few people who can touch the formula, and it is the easiest to quit them all." My master is going to come up with a new recipe soon, and I can't lose it anymore!"

"The workshop workers of Tianfulou must have worked here for at least 15 years and have no bad deeds before they can get in touch with the formula. Li Kailiang said slowly, "If you dismiss them, the workshop will be chaotic, I'm afraid that the conventional incense powder can't be made." Besides, can a hired newcomer be more reliable than an old man?"

"This ......"

"Yan Gongzi asked Tianfu Lou not to close down during the handover period, the old employees have all resigned, where can I find someone to make incense for you and keep the store temporarily?"

Huang Da stroked the back of his head: "Okay, then check them one by one." ”

Li Kailiang stopped squeaking.

A person like him, as soon as Huang Da opened his mouth, he knew Huang Da's weight.

Soon, the carriage stopped.

As early as before the name change of Kaiyang Street, Tianfulou sold incense powder here for more than 70 years, and also earned a lot of facades, so that it could slowly expand outward and open more than a dozen branches. The pillar in front of the door has two people hugging each other, and each side is inscribed with a poem. The plaque is pure black lacquer bottom, and it is an out-and-out gold-lettered signboard.

Huang Da probed at the door and saw a dazzling array of shelves, red, green, and green, full of aroma of fat powder. But there are few customers in the store.

The sun is on three poles, and it should be the time when the number of passengers is the most throughout the day.

Li Kailiang said: "All the staff are in the store, and behind this is the incense shop." The fat powder is made from here, so if you want to investigate, you can start at the main store. Then he turned to the clerk and ordered everyone to gather them in the back hall.

Tianfu Building is a large place, and the back hall can stand for sixty or seventy people. However, the total number of people in the store is only thirty-three.

Soon, everyone arrived, all of them stood stiffly, their faces full of anxiety.

Tianfulou was sold, and the new owner took over, and I don't know if it's good or not.
