Chapter 3 Heaven and Earth Section 4
"Come, Brother Ren taste the sliced duck in this capital!" The two sat still for a while, and the little second brother came up with two plates of fragrant ducks, the skin was jujube red, slightly transparent and burnt, and Ren Tian's diphtheria head slid up and down, but behind him was a chef with a sharp knife in his hand, and a knife light flew on the table, and in an instant, the two ducks were sliced into several plates, waiting for the duck slices to be ready, and the little second brother sent a few other side dishes up, and then respectfully withdrew!
"Brother Ren, don't be stunned!" Chai Zheng picked up a piece of duck meat with chopsticks, picked up another piece of duck skin, put it in a piece of dough cake, and then used a few shredded green onions, dipped it in some sauce, rolled it together with the thin dough cake, and handed it to Ren Tianbai and said: "Taste this taste first, if two are not enough, just ask for it again!"
"Enough...... Enough is enough......" Ren Tianbai stuffed the roll of bread with meat into his mouth, but felt that the duck meat was soft and glutinous, the duck skin was crispy with a hint of sweetness, and then mixed with shredded green onions crisp and sweet and spicy, stirred together with sweet sauce, full of aroma, a touch of oil juice dripped down the corner of his mouth, hurriedly stretched out his hand to wipe it, and suddenly felt a little sad in his heart, when his father was alive, every time the father and son met for dinner, it was the same, always had to give himself a few bites first, and now he was alone...... I didn't expect that today I was vaguely aware of a little warmth of the day, and before I could swallow that bite of duck meat, tears were already flowing in my eyes!
"Brother Ren doesn't have to be hurt...... Chai Zheng also sighed, rolled another dough cake, handed it to Ren Tianbai and said: "Although your father and I are only a few faces, we also admire each other, and we have also worked together to handle a few cases, and we are also called brothers in private, I am one year older than your father, if you don't dislike it, just call me Uncle Shi!"
"Thank you...... The nephew understood...... "Ren Tianbai held back his tears, took the duck meat roll with both hands, put it in front of him, stood up, reached out and picked up the wine jug, poured a glass for Chai Zheng first, and then poured a glass for himself, raised the wine glass with both hands and said: "Thank you for your kindness, nephew will give Shibo a glass first!"
"The virtuous nephew is polite, sit, sit down and say, eat enough first and then say!" Chai Zheng also raised his glass with both hands, and beckoned Ren Tianbai to sit down, Ren Tianbai saw that Chai Zheng's hands seemed to be a little different from ordinary people, and the backs of his palms and hands still looked no different from ordinary people, but the skin and flesh on the palms were tightened, and they spread to his arms, as if he was injured! Chai Zheng saw him looking at his hands, and he did not hide it, and said with a smile: "This is also a bit careless back then, the house caught fire, and this injury fell! I heard that the virtuous nephew has already been to Nanjing?"
"I've been there......" Ren Tianbai was asked by this, and he was a little depressed, shook his head and said: "Shibo also saw it today, my father's old department in Nanjing is not much like this Liu Ye, and I don't blame them...... It's just that now it is rumored in the rivers and lakes that my father was killed for half a treasure map, and I don't know what will happen in the future!"
"It's nothing more than Chen Zuyi's old things!" Chai Zheng smiled faintly, took a bite of food and said: "Over the years, I haven't seen anyone find Chen Zuyi's ethereal treasures, when Zheng Gonggong wiped out Chen Zuyi in a battle, the seven great sails made one die and six escaped, and even the island bandit cave where Chen Zuyi was hiding was burned, what treasure did you see?" However, there are also believers in the rivers and lakes, but anyone who says that he has seen the treasure map, most of them are dead, it can be seen that this treasure map is not a good thing, what kind of character is your father, how can you believe such rumors that cannot stand scrutiny, and some people have said that it is clear and clear, saying that your father has seen the last face of the Bashu Sword God, and I also went to the CD House to ask about it, your father has indeed seen Yi Baili, but it is not the last person!"
"Then my father wasn't killed by the Tangmen in Shuzhong in order to avenge Yi Baili? So, is it really the poisonous hand of Chaoxin downstairs?" Ren Tianbai has been thinking about this matter in his heart these days, Chai Zheng, as the chief arrester of the Jingshi Criminal Department, must know far more than himself, so he hurriedly asked.
Chai Zheng shook his head, put down his chopsticks and muttered: "If the Tang Sect wants to avenge Yi Baili, it will never let people die so happily!" But to say that this matter is Chaoxinlou, which is very puzzling, although Chaoxinlou is to eat the bowl of rice with money to eliminate disasters, but has never been against the court, this time rashly killed your father, the reason is also a little unreasonable, even if your father has a few enemies in the rivers and lakes, but to buy your father's life with 10,000 taels of gold, it is not easy, and before the assassin did that day, he also said that your father is more than 10,000 taels of gold, so calculated, there are only a handful of people who can produce such a large amount of gold on the rivers and lakes! I have been pondering this matter for a few days, and I am very suspicious that someone did it in the name of Chaoxin Building!"
Ren Tianbai was a little confused when he heard this, since his father was not killed by the Tang Sect, and it was not Chaoxinlou who did it, then who else in the rivers and lakes wanted to take his father's life? Chai Zheng smiled and said: "I was worried about your safety in Huazhou before, and let the little lesbian apprentices go to Huazhou to find your whereabouts, I don't want them to do things ineffectively, and they actually missed you, and a few days ago I sent a letter back, saying that I would wait for your whereabouts in Wuchang Mansion, it seems that the two of them are going to wait for nothing!"
"This is the little nephew, isn't it......" Ren Tianbai said unconsciously and a little sneering: "When I was in Huazhou that day, they had actually found me, but I was thinking about going to Nanjing at that time, maybe I could find a way, and ignored them, it's not that they are ineffective, and I hope that Shi Bomo will blame them!"
"A good boy has ambitions in all directions, and you're right!" Chai nodded with praise and said, "I just don't know what you plan to do in the future, nephew?" If you don't dislike it, I can repair a letter to the head of Xi'an Mansion, and let you go back to find an errand under him, but now there are rumors on the rivers and lakes, and I'm afraid it's a little unfavorable to you!"
Chai Zheng originally wanted to leave Ren Tianbai in the capital, with the name of the chief arrest of the Beijing Division, he could find a bowl of rice for Ren Tianbai there, but Chai Yingruo and Gu Jieyun sent back a letter before, and now even Dongchang is looking for Ren Tianbai's whereabouts, leaving him in the capital, but it is a little inappropriate, after all, Dongchang is under the control of the Son of Heaven, how can he put himself in the eyes of the chief arrest of the Criminal Department, so it is also a little difficult for him to decide, let alone tell Ren Tianbai about this matter! In addition, the two major blocks of the East Factory are in Huazhou, and it seems that they are just looking for something, and they are not looking for Ren Tianbai's trouble, so they want to let Ren Tianbai go back to Xi'an Mansion, as long as Ren Tianbai is alone, the East Factory will not be too embarrassed by Ren Tianbai!
