Chapter 37 Chapter Eleven

Di Gong and Ma Rong came to Cangchun Pavilion, entered through the hall, walked along a row of houses in the backyard, and found Xishe No. 4, who was about to knock on the door.One of the guardians came forward and asked, "I wonder which girl the two gentlemen are looking for?" Ma Rong said: "Look for Yinxian." "Yinxian just came back on the front foot, and you two followed behind. Could it be that she was tricked into going outside for the night." Yaoer turned his black eyes, looking at Digong and Ma Rongqi. Ma Rong was afraid of arguing, so he said in a rough voice: "Since we have returned to the hospital, let us see her."

"It's a rule in the courtyard that foreign guests are not allowed to enter the incense room without permission. To find a girl, you need to go to the court to issue a signature. Our courtyard master approves the pledge before you can come to pick it up." Yaoer also took the score. Ma Rong became angry: "Do you think we are sex offenders? Go and tell your homeowner that Mr. Di, the magistrate of Jinhua County, is here on business to ask Miss Yinxian to investigate a murder case. What kind of person are you, dare to come and question again and again The role of the role is to block it."

Yaoer heard that the government is working for the public, so how dare he say more?Pile up a flattering smile, respectfully retreat. While talking here, Yinxian has heard the voice open the door.Seeing that it was Ma Rong, I was very happy.He also saw a big black beard standing beside Ma Rong, with a dignified demeanor, majestic but not fierce, he must be the Lord Di that Ma Rong mentioned many times. Di Gong said kindly, "Are you the Yinxian girl?" Yinxian hurriedly kowtowed in reply, said "yes" in his mouth, and welcomed him into the room. "I heard that you are Qiuyue's apprentice, and you are very close to me."

"Go back to Master Di, yes. The servant can see her every day." Di Gongdao: "I only ask you a few words today, and you must answer truthfully." Yinxian nodded. "Qiuyue, she wants to find a rich and powerful master to redeem her and go out as a husband and wife?" Yinxian nodded again: "Master Di, yes. That's exactly what my master thinks, she wholeheartedly looks forward to passing the time in the saddle. At first, she didn't pay much attention to her, but now I see... I see her." After I became Lord Luo County Magistrate, I had this intention. But Lord Luo... the master also said that now that she is the empress of Hua Kui, it is the right time. I am afraid that it will be too late if she is an old woman in another day, and it will be too late."

"Then, Miss Yinxian, let me ask you again, why does she insist on refusing to redeem her when a rich and powerful master like Mr. Li Lian wants to redeem her? I heard that Mr. Li is young and handsome, and has a romantic personality. The reason for this is that Do you know a thing or two?" "This...returning to Master Di, this servant is also puzzled. The sisters also discussed it, and they all feel puzzled. We don't know where the master and Mr. Li meet together. The master has never been to the Red Pavilion where Mr. Li stayed. On the other hand, Hongliu, Mudan, and Bailan have been there a few times. The slave really doesn’t understand the relationship between Master and Mr. Li. I only heard that Mr. Li went to the mansion of Mr. Li on the day of his death. , and only said a few words, then broke up. I don’t know why I committed suicide. The servant once had the courage to ask the master, but the master sternly scolded me and told me not to ask me nosy things. The master was not like this before. Master Luo and her Every word and every word of Master has been vividly described, which often makes the sisters laugh."

Duke Di twirled his big black beard and nodded in satisfaction. "Miss Yinxian, I heard from Ma Rong that you know a girl named Ling Xiangu who taught you how to sing. I heard that Ling Xiangu was also a popular song back then." "Go back to Master Di, yes.—I really don't know that Brother Ma Rong can speak so fast, like a trough of water, and all the sisters listened to it, and they all went to ask for advice. No one listened to my song." Di Gong said: "You don't have to worry about this, I will keep it secret with you. I want to talk to this Ling Xiangu, and you can help find a place to meet."

"Back to Master Di, Xiangu Ling has become ill and has bouts of hemoptysis, and she refuses to see anyone these days." Ma Rong helped and said: "Miss Yinxian, please do me a favor. The master is going to find her in person, you have to lead the way for the master. When you meet Ling Xiangu, please help me to talk to her." Di Gong said yes, so he ordered Ma Rong to pass on Tao De, and asked him to wait in the White Crane Tower, and when they were all together, they went to see Ling Xiangu. Cangchun Pavilion is across the street from the White Crane Tower. After a while Ma Rong came back and said that he had sent a message to Tao De.Asked where to go now.

Di Gongdao: "Go to Guilingtang to find Wen Wenyuan. Go north for a few streets, and it's the right way." Guilingtang is located at the corner of two avenues, occupying an advantageous location.They also run gold and silver jewelry concurrently. If pearls are played well, the business is still good. When Di Gong and Ma Rong walked into the store, they were indeed quaint and full of beautiful things.Ma Rong handed over the big red name card.Seeing that it was someone from the government, the man didn't dare to neglect, so he rushed to the front building to ask for instructions.

When Wen Wenyuan heard that it was the county magistrate Di who was visiting, he came downstairs in a hurry, bowed to his head, and said "neglect".Yingdi Gong and Ma Rong sat down in the front hall and held tea in person. "Mr. Wen, your business is doing well." Mr. Di said coldly. Wen Wenyuan replied respectfully: "Master Fu, thanks to Bodhisattva Zhao Gong, he earned some money in the past, but now the situation is poor and business is not good." "How much money can the cursive copybook of Wang Daling earn?" Duke Di asked. "That dental man surnamed Huang is very good-natured, and he hasn't settled on his role yet. We still need to grind mushrooms tonight."

"Did the Yellow Fang Man really not come last night?" "Master Fu, he didn't come. Xiaomin waited all night." "Mr. Wen didn't go out to shop again?" "No." "Someone saw you go to Cangchun Pavilion, a prostitute. Is there such a thing?" Di Gong's eyes were fixed on Wen Wenyuan. Wen Wenyuan was secretly taken aback: "This...what is this? The shabby things in the courtyard are from the light to the cheap. That little whore has a stubborn mouth and doesn't know etiquette. It would be good for her to teach her. I don't know what a big head Ask the master to ask."

"Let's not talk about the low quality of that woman, Hualiu, how can she be punished. You lied to the government, and you pretended to be the face of the county in the court, and made a false confession. How much punishment should you hit?" Ma Rong snapped, "Fifty boards are still light breaks." Wen Wenyuan knew that the comer was not good, so he had to do soft work.Hastily knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, saying "convicted." Di Gong sneered and said, "Wifty Banzi, you are so scared. If you are accused of murder, you don't know how to be ugly." Wen Wenyuan was startled suddenly: "What? I kill people? Don't make jokes, sir." "Mr. Wen, someone is reporting to the government office today, saying that you killed Li Lian... "I killed Li Lian?!" Wen Wenyuan's face was swollen like a pig's liver, sweat was pouring out from his forehead, and he was panting suddenly. "Master Di is the master of the common people. This Mr. Li committed suicide in the Red Pavilion, and it is well-known. How could he just accuse me of being killed by someone Wen?" "Someone saw you and Li Lian meeting at the pier by the river, arguing with each other with a murderous rage. Li Lian was forced to death by you, how can Mr. Wen deny this?" Ma Rong said: "Mr. Wen is still pretending to be deaf and dumb? It's under the big tree by the pier." Wen Wenyuan argued urgently: "None of us..." He retracted the rest of the words, trying to calm himself down. Di Gong said sternly: "Mr. Wen should answer honestly, how did you coerce Li Lian? He was killed in a violent manner, and you can't get rid of it." Wen Wenyuan looked up at Duke Di and Ma Rong, and said with a mournful face, "Since you all know the truth about this matter, I dare not hide it anymore. —Xiaomin was trying to persuade Li Lianxiu to do something stupid." Ma Rong urged: "Don't hesitate to vomit, and hide it again. Tomorrow, you will move the board in the courtroom. It will be too late to complain. Now you will vomit all of it. Master Di is generous, and he may protect you." Wen Wenyuan was also ignorant of the shock, but he said, "I told Li Lian, if you really get Feng Lichang's daughter, Feng Lichang will not let you off lightly." Di Gong realizes: "Li Lian covets Miss Feng Yuhuan. You can continue to talk about it. The relatives from the county came to visit the house, and they wanted to listen to your plea in private. If you don't read the county's song to defend, you will be full of mother-in-law. I'm afraid I'll have to go to the court for a strict trial." Wen Wenyuan kowtowed and said, "Master Xie Di is very kind. The little people dare not lie any more. ——Since Mr. Li bumped into the boat and met Miss Yuhuan that night, it was as if his soul had been hooked, and he did not do anything well. He wholeheartedly wanted to Get her, ask me to help. I said, Miss Yuhuan, a well-known boudoir, guards her body like a jade, and is no better than that other fireworks girl. And Feng Lichang is powerful and powerful, just like the emperor of Leyuan, how can this happen? There is no hope for this matter. Advise him to die." When Di Gong saw the words coming to Hong Kong, he calculated and said: "You have been jealous of Feng Lichang for a long time. Li Lian's delusion is right in your heart. How can you let it go easily? I'm afraid the suggestion is false, but the fuel on the fire is true." Wen Wenyuan didn't feel shocked when he heard this, but he knew that Di Gong was really powerful, and he had already seen what was going on in his heart. "It's true that Xiaomin hates Feng Lichang. Seeing Mr. Li in such a situation, Xiaomin wanted to use him to burn his lust and burn Feng Lichang to a complete defeat. But Miss Yuhuan made her ugly and made her laugh, and Feng Lichang's power was not offensive. Since it was destroyed, there is no face to see anyone in Leyuan anymore.—Ten thousand steps back, the incident is revealed, and it can be blamed on Mr. Li alone, and he has already fled away without leaving a trace." As Wen Wenyuan spoke, Wu Zhu glanced sideways at Di Gong again.Di Gong closed his eyes tightly and remained silent. "With such a plan in mind, Xiaomin took the charter and said to Mr. Li, I have a clever plan, and I can ask Miss Yuhuan to submit. I want Mr. Li to come to the meeting in the afternoon to discuss it in detail." Di Gongnai nodded slowly. ——Wen Wenyuan's filthy heart is really insightful. "Mr. Li came here after a quick lunch, and asked me for advice. I told him that twenty years ago, an official here committed suicide because of the brothel incident. At that time, Chief Feng was the official's lover. Opponents. They fought each other for chasing a famous prostitute, so it was rumored that it was Feng Lichang who killed the official with his own hands. —— Originally, the death of the official was very suspicious, but everyone believed the rumor. On the day Honggezi committed suicide, I saw Feng Lichang sneaking into the Yongle Inn. "This story has been rumored for many years. Ms. Feng Yuhuan has heard about it, and she half-believes it in her heart. I told Mr. Li that when he met Miss Yuhuan, he said that he had the real evidence that Feng Lichang's Red Pavilion murdered. Feng Yuhuan is a filial daughter. He is the most sensitive about this matter, how can he treat it indifferently. If Feng Yuhuan wants to ask for a meeting, great things can be achieved, and he will not worry about the chick being tied up if he is not obedient. If this matter succeeds, he is not afraid of Feng Yuhuan coming forward to sue him. Feng Yuhuan will never do anything about Feng Lichang's reputation." Wen Wenyuan wiped his nose, and said in a sad voice: "Xiaomin is foolish and confused, and the design is harmful and serious. I just ask Mr. Di to be lenient. The two traps are settled and we broke up. After this, Xiaomin will be serious." I don’t know.——I don’t know if Li Lian met again and Feng Yuhuan acted according to the plan, and I don’t know if Feng Yuhuan fell into the trap of Mr. Li. Mr. Li died a few days later, and it is said that he committed suicide in the Red Pavilion. However, I really saw Feng Li Chang that night also went to the Yongle Inn, wandering around behind the Red Pavilion. There may be something strange about this matter. What Xiaomin said is true, and I followed Master Di to investigate, but there is a little bit of falsehood, and I am willing to be severely punished." He knelt down and kowtowed again and again like pounding garlic. Mr. Di stood up and left a message: "From today onwards, you are a guilty person, and you are waiting to be summoned by the government office. What you said just now needs to be verified. Without the permission of the county, you are not allowed to leave this Guiling hall. However, Business can continue." Wen Wenyuan kowtowed again and again, and said with weeping tears: "The little people are trying to destroy their families again, and they will burn every day."
