Chapter 16: The Wind Rises in Hangzhou

"Are you Fang Xiao?" the young man behind him asked this sentence before Su Youlian.

"Xiao Ke is Fang Xiao. Fang Xiao replied with a smile.

The young man in white's expression changed, and it seemed that Fang Xiao's identity was suspicious. I've heard people talk about you, but only that you're very intelligent, and I haven't mentioned that you have such good martial arts. ”

"For my martial arts, I can only say that I have some adventures, I have already written to Master Su, I think he should make his own decision. By the way, I have a letter that my father asked me to hand over to Master Su, why don't you take a look at it first?" Fang Xiao took out the letter written by Fang Liangping from his body.

Su Yulian took the letter and didn't open it, and the young man in white had already stood up by himself without any problems. "This is Uncle Fang's handwriting, I have seen it in my father's study. Su Yulian also said softly.

"Oh, and this. Fang Xiao said and took out the half of the jade pendant that Liang Ping gave him before leaving.

"This. Su Youlian and the young man in white were also shocked.

"In Xia Suhua, there are many offenses. Seeing this, the young man in white also recognized his identity and said.

"I've seen Su Gongzi. Fang Xiao also nodded simply.

"That, Fang Xiao, where do you live?" the young man in white said when he saw that Su was still surprised. After Su Hua opened his mouth, Su Yulian also handed the jade pendant back to Fang Xiao.

"In the inn in the east of the city. Fang Xiao took the jade pendant handed over by Su Youlian and said.

"Wait there for a while, when my father returns, and I'll have someone come to you. Su said after thinking about it.

"So be it. Fang Xiao put away the fan, saluted the two, and then withdrew from the Su Mansion.

"Sister, is he really Fang Xiao?" asked Su Hua after Fang Xiao left.

"Don't you already have an answer?" Su Yulian glanced at him and said.

Su Hua smiled, and then said, "Then isn't he my brother-in-law?" After speaking, he glanced at Su Weipi, whose cheeks were slightly red.

"If you talk too much, be careful that I tear you up. Su said and looked at the half of the jade pendant on his waist.

"Okay, sister, can't I go?" Su Hua smiled when he saw Su Wei and feigned anger.

"What's the hurry, you go to six doors to get this letter to your father. Su Youlian handed the letter to Su Hua.

"Okay, I know, but sister, are you really not interested in my brother-in-law?" Su Hua joked with Su Worry.

"You kid. Su Youlian just wanted to scold him, but when he saw that Su Hua had already run away, he could only stomp his feet and turn around and go inside.

Fang Xiao walked out of the Su Mansion and walked towards the inn. An old man dressed gorgeously walked towards him head-on, and Fang Xiao naturally dodged to the side when he saw it. Unexpectedly, the old man seemed to accidentally fall on Fang Xiao's body. Seeing this, Fang Xiao didn't dare to dodge, so he had to continue to bump into the old man, the old man bumped into him with force, but with Fang Xiao's current skills, he had already unloaded the power of the old man's collision with just a few strokes.

The old man propped himself up from Fang Xiao's hand. "Very nice. The old man looked up and glanced at Fang Xiao, who was in a daze, and said this. The old man walked away step by step, Fang Xiao shook his head and thought about ignoring it anymore. Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly said, "Leave the capital and come to the largest mansion in the south of the city." ”

"How do you know I'll definitely go?" Fang Xiao also turned his head and asked in surprise.

"Because you're in that vein. The old man seemed to be muttering to himself, as if answering his question.

Fang Xiao watched the old man walk away like this, so he didn't ask anymore and shook his head and walked towards the inn.

And the old man walked around the corner, and a sedan chair was waiting there. "Master, have you seen him?" the old man did not answer immediately, but walked into the sedan chair on his own.

"It's him, that look is right. The old man said this in the sedan chair.

"But even if he is that person's child, he is not a scholar. The old servant who had been waiting before also said.

"You, you haven't changed after all these years. The old man said this in the sedan chair as if reproached.

"The old slave said the wrong thing, please punish the master. The old servant also immediately asked for punishment.

"I didn't say you were wrong, but. You can't still look at things from the perspective of the rivers and lakes after following me for so many years, and you don't know how capable Fang Liangping was when he was in Beijing. Besides, this kid is not a person who has no martial arts at all. The old man's voice still came from the sedan chair, and it was difficult to distinguish joy and anger.

"Well, but he shouldn't. Before the old servant could finish his words, he was interrupted by the old man in the sedan chair. "If you shouldn't ask, don't ask. The old man's voice was cold. The old servant also hurriedly said that he would not talk much.

The old man in the sedan chair closed his eyes and recuperated, his heart seemed to be disturbed by some old things, and his brows were tightly furrowed.

"Fang Xiao is here? Well, yes, you let him stay at the inn like this, isn't there still a house at home?" Su Buqing raised his head from the dossier, "In this way, you will personally go and let Fang Xiao come to the house for dinner in the evening." ”

"I didn't do it. Su Hua complained softly, "I know, but Dad, Fang Xiao's martial arts are actually very high, better than me." ”

"And this matter? Tell me more about it. Although Su Buqing received Fang Xiao's letter at that time and knew that he was learning some martial arts, it was just such a little time, and Su Hua was taught by him, and his skills were definitely not worse than those of ordinary sects. Therefore, when he heard Su Hua praise Fang Xiao's martial arts, Su Buqing also asked suspiciously.

When Su Hua saw his father asking, he told Su Buqing all about Fang Xiao's entry into the mansion and the use of a folding fan to pass the three levels. Su Buqing thought about "folding fan?" and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Xiaoyao fan!" hurriedly turned around and took out a small box from the bookshelf. Su Buqing opened the small box, and inside was a letter. Su Buqing gently flipped it down, and then took out the letter written by Fang Xiao, that is, Shu Wumo. Su Buqing took a closer look and said, "Sure enough, it turned out to be those four old guys." ”

"Father, what are you talking about?" Su Hua asked when he saw Su Buqing smiling and muttering to himself.

"Look at the letter. Su Buqing handed the letter in his hand to Su Hua.

"Isn't this what Fang Xiao wrote to your father?" Su Hua simply flipped through and said, "Isn't the handwriting wrong? No, Fang Xiao wrote this letter to you." ”

Su Buqing looked at Su Hua scratching his ears and cheeks, and smiled, "He did only write me one letter, and even if I have two letters, I shouldn't be clear, so the problem is not on the paper." ”

When Su Hua heard his father say this, he looked at it carefully: "This is not official household paper?"

"By the way, Fang Xiao's background is destined to make him unlikely to use such paper, so his letter paper must be official household paper. Su Buqing answered.

"But what does this mean? Maybe Fang Xiao just happened to run out of paper at hand? Su Hua said.

"But I know the owner of this paper. Su Buqing smiled and pointed to the corner of the letter paper, a small calligraphy lying there quietly, "Actually, you don't have to be so troublesome, wait a while, you ask Xia Xiao if you have written a letter to me, it will be clear?" Besides, this is written by an old friend of mine, so I basically know what is going on with Fang Xiao's martial arts." Hurry up and go find Fang Xiao. After Su Buqing finished speaking, he urged Su Hua twice.

"Okay Dad, but sister, I'm afraid you have to care. Su Hua said.

"What's wrong with sorrow, did you bully her?" Su Buqing just turned around and put away his things, and when he heard this, he hurriedly turned around and came back and said.

"Dad, you are laughing, how dare I. Su Hua said busily.

"Also, you really don't have this ability, so what's wrong with her?" Su Buqing put away some anxious looks.

"I have to ask you, is Fang Xiao the husband you designated for your sister. Su Hua's face turned joking.

", you go and do your thing. Su Buqing also drove Su Hua away with a smile, but his anxious look had already gone for the most part. "Linyu, the children's affairs, it's better to leave it to the children." Su Buqing thought about it and laughed.

"Two adults, what's the matter today?" Seeing Xiao Qingtan and Hexue Wu coming in, Pavilion Master Wu also hurriedly won, "Do you want me to call the Pavilion Master down?"

"Well, no. I'm on business with the head of the blood catcher today, just come over to check the news, and I don't have to trouble the young pavilion master. Xiao Qingtan said.

"What kind of tea are you two going to drink?" Pavilion Master Wu also said with a smile.

"We want to drink a cup of muddy tea (ask for details), I don't know if the master of Wu Pavilion will give it or not. Xiao Qingtan said.

"Hahaha, others want to drink muddy tea, it may be difficult but the two of you want to drink, if you don't have it, you have to have it. Pavilion Master Wu smiled and said, "Since the two of you want to drink muddy tea, I won't ask you what you drink from, you two come with me." "Pavilion Master Wu took the two of them and walked upstairs.

The layout of the second and third floors is no different from the Siwen Pavilion in Nanjing, and the three of them went straight to the fourth floor, and the fourth floor is simply divided into three rooms, and the signs of the sun, moon and stars are hung on the doors. "I thought it would not be a small matter to be able to come together, so I made my own decision, and the two of you came with me. Pavilion Master Wu said and led the two of them to push open the door of the Japanese brand.

"After eating and drinking, I'll go down first. Pavilion Master Wu retired with a smile.

"Lord Wu Ge, you are busy. Xiao Qingtan and Xuewu also bowed slightly.

Xiao Qingtan and Xuewu sat down in the room, picked up a pen and wrote on the paper, "Chengxi Headless Case and Mirror Flower Water Moon Jade Plate." Then he got up and handed it to the curtain. At this time, in a small room in Siwen Pavilion, Qi Siyan also received a note written by the two of them.

"Interesting, look at it. After reading it, Qi Siyan handed the note to the Wu Pavilion Master.

"Six doors want to move that. After reading it, Pavilion Master Wu said with a bad expression.

"You have people give them the news. Qi Siyan pressed his scalp with his fingers and said.

"But that would offend those people. Pavilion Lord Wu said carefully.

Qi Siyan also smiled when he heard this, "I said you, you are too careful." Who would dare to ask for trouble if we put the signboard of the Inquiry Pavilion here? Besides, we are only six doors in the intelligence business to inquire, and there is no reason why we should not tell them. However, it is necessary to make the stakes clear, and they do not know the depths of the province. ”

"The little one understands. Pavilion Master Wu nodded and went downstairs. Qi Siyan muttered, "Since the Water Moon Pavilion claims to be a fairyland, then I have no choice but to help the six doors and pull you into the mortal world." Then there was another chuckle.

And Xiao Qingtan and Xuewu in the Japanese word house finally waited for the information they wanted. Bloody Bell had already walked to the front of the curtain and took the paper handed out. Walking back to the table and sitting down, the two of them took a closer look.

'There is no headless case in the west of the city, I don't know the murderer, I don't know the reason. With the news that most of the murder weapons used are blood droplets, so I judge that the good use of this thing is suspected, and the blood droplets were first invented for the execution in the palace, and the first users were mostly eunuchs, and later promoted in the factory guard. Seeing this, Xiao Qingtan and Xue Wu also nodded at each other, and the two also focused on Dongchang when they first came into contact.

But after the martyrdom, drops of blood flowed out, but the world will control those who use it well, but only a handful of them. In addition to the people in the palace, there are still three people or factions, the Jinling Chu family, the organ Momen and the Gui people. Xiao Qingtan looked at the blood and saw that the fingertips of the blood were also pointing to the name of Gui Heren. "It seems that it has nothing to do with this Gui Heren, but the order was issued to let the above help investigate, in case we think wrong, there is room for remedy. Xiao Qingtan said.

"Well, I'll let the six doors of Jinling move when I go back. Xuewu also nodded.

The two of them continued to look at it, "As for the jade plate of the mirror flower and the moon, it is from the hand of the water moon pavilion. "Have you heard of this?" Xiao Qingtan also frowned when he saw this name, and his face became solemn. The two of them can be regarded as having come over the rivers and lakes over the years, and the sudden emergence of such an organization that they have never heard of also makes their hearts fluctuate.

Shuiyue Pavilion arose on the shore of Taihu Lake, and has continued to develop outward in the past two years, and its headquarters was moved outside Hangzhou at the beginning of the year. Xiao Qingtan's face was so gloomy that he could wring out water, "Just appeared under my nose, I didn't know it, this was really slapping me in the face." ”

'The fairyland of Shuiyue Pavilion, which prides itself on being a high-ranking official and dignitary, is just a place for prostitutes and gambling houses. It is not different from other filthy places, but it is very hidden, and the people behind the scenes are far away. It is rumored that the person behind it is from Wudang, but I don't know whether it's true or not. In the end, my master gave the two guests a piece of news, Gui He is the shopkeeper of Shuiyue Pavilion. ’

"This Qi Siyan is quite polite. Xiao Qingtan looked at the last sentence and teased.

"I think this young pavilion master wants to borrow our knife to see if the bones of Shuiyue Pavilion are hard. Seeing the last sentence of these words, Xuewu and Xiao Qingtan basically knew that these messages were all provided by Qi Siyan, so they said.

"Hehe, after all, people are businessmen, and digging too deep is not good for them. Xiao Qingtan said.

"And the news?" asked Bloody Nothing.

"Of course it's a letter, Siwen Pavilion won't ruin their credibility because of this little thing. The Water Moon Pavilion must exist, but even the Siwen Pavilion can only vaguely reveal the identity of the person behind the scenes, and this Water Moon Pavilion really has some ability. Xiao Qingtan put the paper on the lit candle.

"If they didn't have any skills, how could you Xiao Qingtan be so embarrassed now?" Xue Wuye said mockingly.

"Alright, it's time for us to go to the checkout. Xiao Qingtan no longer paid attention to Xuewu and walked downstairs, and Xuewu hurriedly followed when he saw this.
