365. The Great Conspiracy

Du did not forget to discuss with Feng Niang and the others, and decided to rush to the prefect's yamen to find the prefect first, and let the prefect take the case down first, and then try it in a few days.

So Du Bu Bu and Feng Niang came to the prefect's yamen, at this time, the prefect Liu Chong was busy with business, and when he saw Du Bu Bu visiting, he hurriedly invited Du Bu Bu and Feng Niang to drink tea in the back hall of the yamen.

I only heard the prefect Liu Chong ask Du Yiyi:

"Du Tanhua is in a hurry to visit, there must be something, right?"

After taking a sip of tea, Du Yi said:

"Yes, since Lord Liu, you are so direct, I will also say it!"

So he told Liu Chong about his sister White Lotus's crime, and at this time, a servant came to report:

"Li Zhutou came to the yamen with two female thieves and a group of blonde merchants, and asked your lord to interrogate you!"

Liu Chong signaled to the officials not to reveal the fact that they were here, and asked the officials to inform Li Zhutou and others to entertain the blonde merchants and wait for a while.

Liu Chong hesitated for a moment, and replied:

"Du Tanhua, you must also understand our difficulties as officials, I will go back to try this case, but I can temporarily detain the case for two days before making a decision, but I can't help it after two days, this is not a trivial matter after all, Du Tanhua, you should understand!"

Du did not forget to get up and salute the prefect Liu Chong, and said:

"Then it's really troublesome for you, Lord Liu, before the case is finalized in two days, I will definitely give you an answer!"

After speaking, he left the prefect's yamen with Feng Niang.

After walking a short distance, Feng Niang asked:

"Brother Du, where are we going now?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Where else can I go, first find an inn to live in, and then come out for a full meal!"

Feng Niang asked again:

"Then we don't care about Sister Ling'er and Sister Xian'er?

Du did not forget to reply:

"Don't worry about them, they're interrogating now, it's useless for us to go!"

So the two of them found an inn, asked for an upper room, and then put their luggage away, and then went out to find a restaurant to eat.

Feng Niang saw that Du did not forget to order a table full of wine and food, so she said:

"Don't forget, the two of us will definitely not be able to eat so much wine and food you ordered, do you have to prepare to pack it for Xian'er and Ling'er's sister to eat?"

Du Cheng said:

"You know me if it's still the wind!"

Feng Niang replied with a smile:

"Of course, as soon as I saw that these drinks and dishes were all things that Xian'er and Ling'er's sister loved to eat, I thought of it, so I just asked!"

After a while, after the two of them had finished eating, they counted the time, packed up and made two portions, gave the jailer some broken silver, and went into the prison.

At this time, the White Lotus and Xian'er were squatting in a cell, and Xian'er saw that Du Buyi and Feng Niang were coming with food, so she hurriedly ran close to the two of them and said:

"I knew Brother Du, you wouldn't leave us alone!"

Feng Niang immediately said:

"Of course, your Brother Du dragged me away to find a way to get to you, otherwise if I and your Brother Du are imprisoned, no one will be able to save us!"

White Lotus glanced up at a few people at this time, and said angrily in her heart:

"Doesn't it forget that kind enough to save me? I don't believe it, a selfish ghost who only cares about running away!"

After Xian'er took the meal, she shouted to the white lotus:

"Sister Ling'er, hurry up and come over for dinner, you see that these meals are your and me's favorite food, and Brother Du ordered them for us!"

The White Lotus replied:

"Eat if you like, I don't eat it!"

Du did not forget to be a fairy:

"No one bullied you when you were on trial, right?"

Xian'er replied:

"As soon as Sister Ling'er entered the door, she confessed her guilt on her toes, and even the prefect repeatedly asked him if he really pleaded guilty, and finally the prefect had no choice but to say, the suspect's brain was a little abnormal, and he was tried again two days later, and as a result, Sister Ling'er scolded the prefect back, you have a problem with your brain, fortunately, the prefect is good, and we are not held accountable!"

Du did not forget and said:

"It's not that the prefect is willing to do so, because before you were tried, I and your sister Feng'er went to look for it, and he had to sell me a favor, after all, I have a reputation for exploring flowers!"

Xian'er smiled and said:

"It turned out that Brother Du, you went to intercede, I said why is this prefect so strange, it seems that he intends to favor us, and those golden retriever devils are very unhappy!"

On the side, Bai Lianhua said angrily at this time:

"Don't forget, can you stop affecting my rest here, I'm annoying you, do you know?"

Du didn't forget to smile helplessly, and said to Xian'er:

"Then you should take care of yourself, I will come to see you the day after tomorrow!"

Then he said to the White Lotus:

"Ling'er, I know you're angry with me, but you also have to pay attention to your body, if you really don't eat this meal, I'll take it away!"

When the White Lotus heard this, she ran over and said:

"Who said I wouldn't eat it?"

Then he snatched the lunch box and devoured it.

After Du Buyi and Feng Niang left the prison, they began to inquire about the residence of the group of golden retriever merchants, and finally learned that this group of golden retriever merchants lived in a rich family courtyard under Yuexiu Mountain in the city.

By the time the two of them came to the outside of the courtyard, it was already dark.

The two of them took the opportunity to jump into the courtyard and found that since it was like a garden, there were all kinds of pavilions and pavilions.

After walking two steps, I saw several blonde, slender, and very tall beauties playing naked in the garden pool.

Feng Niang glanced at it, couldn't help but close her eyes, let her cover Du Forget's eyes, and whispered:

"Don't forget, how can these people look like this, and they dare to bathe in the garden!"

Du did not forget and replied:

"yes, are you covering my eyes for fear that I will see something?"

Feng Niang let go of the hand covering Du Yiyi's eyes and said:

"I'm also for your good, after all, it's better for you to see less of these things!"

Du did not forget to smile and said:

"It's okay to see it, after all, I'm not the hairy boy I used to have when I saw a woman!"

Feng Niang then said:

"That's up to you, so where do we go now?"

Du Cheng said:

"Of course I'm going to find the Golden Retriever Merchant!"

The two of them quietly walked through the open-air bath, and did not go far before they came to an attic, where several blonde men and women with closed eyes could be seen on the second floor, hugging each other, as if they were dancing something.

Feng Niang said to Du Yi and whispered:

"It's weird for these people to dance!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Yes, after all, it's too much different from our dance in the Central Plains!"

At this time, Feng Niang seemed to have discovered something, pointed to one of the men and women, and said:

"Brother Du, look, isn't that man the golden retriever businessman?"

Du did not forget to take a closer look, and if it was, he said:

"Feng'er, it's still good in your eyes, I haven't found it after watching it for so long!"

Feng Niang then said:

"Don't you know that what we women are best at is observation?

Du did not forget and said:

"Yes, but I didn't treat you as a woman!"

Feng Niang immediately replied:

"I didn't treat you as a man!"

Then the men and women upstairs suddenly stopped, and immediately one of them brought a chair, and the golden-haired merchant sat on the chair and took the woman who had just danced on him.

After a while, a Central Plains merchant dressed as a person, followed by two men carrying heavy boxes, walked to the golden retriever merchant.

Du Buyi and Feng Niang also took the opportunity to hide under the fence outside the attic on the second floor.

I only heard the golden retriever say to the Central Plains merchant:

"Liu Yuanwai, have you brought enough silver?"

It turned out that the businessman's name was Liu Yuanwai.

I only listened to Liu Yuanwai's reply:

"Yes, Mr. Phil, didn't you know your goods had arrived?"

At this time, an attendant took something like a pen and handed it to Mr. Phil, who put it in his mouth and lit the other end with a fire, sucked it in his mouth, spit out a wisp of green smoke, and then said to Liu Yuanwai:

"This is the cigarette that has become popular in the West recently, from the New World, do you want to try it?"

Liu Yuanwai waved his hand and said:

"No need!"

Mr. Fei'er put the cigarette in the woman's mouth in his arms, took a puff for her, and said to Liu Yuanwai:

"Don't worry, this is not a big cigarette, we people who do big tobacco business never smoke that ourselves!"

After a while, there were two golden retriever attendants, who didn't know where to move a box of things, Liu Yuanwai pointed to the box of things that had just been moved up and said:

"This is what you said about the big cigarette that sells very well in Tianzhu, right?"

Mr. Phil replied:

"Yes, but I want to see if Liu Yuanwai has enough money!"

Liu Yuanwai gestured to the attendant behind him who was carrying the heavy box for him and said:

"You can call the box and show it to Mr. Phil!"

As soon as the two of them opened the box, it was full of white silver.

After Mr. Phil had the money examined, he immediately ordered his two golden-haired attendants to open the box they had just brought up, only to see that it was full of brown plaster like plasticine, and even had some unusual smell.

After Liu Yuanwai asked about the smell, he covered his nose and asked:

"Isn't this the big smoke?"

Mr. Phil nodded and said:

"Yes, so this time I only smuggled a box of big cigarettes, let Liu Yuanwai you go and try selling, if it is good to sell, I can provide it in large quantities!"

Liu Yuanwai asked:

"Then if it doesn't sell well, can you return it?"

Mr. Phil had something to say:

"You don't have to worry, this kind of thing is easy for you to sell, but Liu Yuanwai, you have to take care of the official side of the government, I met your younger brother Liu Chong today, and found that this person seems to have some opinions about us Western businessmen!"

Liu Yuanwai immediately said:

"You don't have to worry about this, my brother is a little stubborn, I will persuade him!"

Mr. Phil immediately added:

"I forgot, I met two female thieves today, and they should be in Yamen Prison now, I want you to give me a way, after all, I don't want to see those two female thieves still alive in the court!"

Liu Yuanwai immediately said:

"This is easy to do, I guarantee that in two days there will be two female corpses in the court who committed suicide in fear of crime!"

Mr. Phil smiled at this time and said:

"Then I wish us a happy cooperation!"

Liu Yuanwai nodded, and then ordered the two attendants just now to cover the big cigarette box, lift it up, and leave in a hurry.

Du did not forget to say to Feng Niang:

"Let's go and follow this Liu Yuan, this person actually dares to set a precedent to sell big cigarettes, and wants to kill Xian'er and Ling'er!"

So Du Bufu and the two of them immediately followed Liu Yuanwai quietly, and after walking in the city for a while, Liu Yuanwai let people carry the box into a shop called 'Liu's Gambling House', Du Buyi and Feng Niang remembered the name of the store, and then returned to the inn room.

At this time, Feng Niang sat on the edge of the bed and asked:

"What are we going to do next?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"In this case, we don't have to let Ling'er apologize to that Golden Retriever Phil, as long as he finds out about stealing and selling cigarettes in this Guangzhou Mansion, he will also be guilty of death!"

Feng Niang then said:

"But the person who made the deal with it is the brother of the prefect Liu Chong, I'm afraid it's not easy to do at this time, right?"

Du Cheng said:

"It seems that I have to visit Liu Chong again tomorrow, so you can find an opportunity to go to the cell tomorrow and send more silver to the jailers, so that as long as Xian'er and Ling'er have something, they can notify us immediately!"
