Song Mingyue

Chapter 111 Three days later, see Zhu Thief's head!
The next morning, the three of them woke up early after only an hour's sleep to avoid being suspected.

The three of them found an early breakfast shop nearby, and ordered three bowls of fried fish noodles, three bowls of large row noodles, six plates of crab shell yellow, six plates of crabapple cakes, twenty meat buns, two catties of mutton, and a jar of wine, full of it. The table is full.

At first, the shopkeeper doubted whether the three of them could finish the whole table of breakfast. After all, the noodles, pastries, steamed buns, wine and meat are enough for at least six people. After three steamed buns, they didn't say anything, and gave away a plate of Jiuniangbing for free.

There are more and more people in the morning shop, and there seems to be nothing unusual about the people coming and going on the street. The faces of the three people are slightly depressed. It is obvious that it was not Zhu Xi who killed last night, otherwise the entire Suzhou city will be a genius right.

The three of them were eating breakfast while paying attention to the conversations of the diners around them.

"I heard that something happened in the Skinned Pig's Mansion last night?"

"That's right, several of the dog legs died, but it's a pity that they didn't kill the pig. I heard that the concubine who skinned the pig also died."

"The skinned pig is surrounded by a group of dog legs, and there are hundreds of people guarding it while sleeping. How can it be so easy to kill... There are fewer people who want to kill the skinned pig these years?"

When Zhao Hao heard the nickname "Skinned Pig", he almost spit out noodles from his nostrils. The name was quite vivid, and they had already prepared for the news that Zhu Xi was not dead. A concubine, so who was that person who was shot to death by Zhao Dian with a crossbow arrow last night?

Fuck...he suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, as if he saw a piece of green Hulunbeier prairie floating in the sky above Zhu Mansion, floating...

Zhao Hao unconsciously had an interesting look on his face.

Another two middle-aged diners came in, ordered two bowls of rice noodles and sat down beside Zhao Hao and the others, chatting and eating noodles.

"I came from Fengmen Street just now, and it seems that the officers and soldiers are interrogating the residents of the inn, for some reason?"

"Brother doesn't know. There were assassins at the Skinned Pig's Mansion last night, and several people died. So today, most of the officers and soldiers were dispatched to search the whole city, especially the inn. Anyone with a foreign accent would be interrogated."

"Well done, that skinned pig won't die."

The three of them changed their expressions, looked at each other, picked up a few mouthfuls randomly, threw a string of money on the table, said "the store pays the bill", and ignored the storekeeper chasing after him shouting "the guest officer wants your money", and quickly He ran towards the inn step by step.

……

The three of them packed up their outfits and stopped a carriage at the entrance of the inn. As soon as they got on the carriage, they saw a group of officers and soldiers rushing towards the inn where the three of them were staying.

"Go to the best brothel in Suzhou City!" Zhao Hao shouted to the coachman in a deep voice.

The coachman looked back at the three of them, and finally his eyes fell on Zhao Hao. He couldn't help showing a knowing smile on his face, and he could only look at Zhao Hao's chrysanthemum... Could it be that I look like someone who often visits brothels? ?
In fact, Zhao Hao misunderstood the coachman. It is not a shameful thing to play with a big sword when visiting brothels these days, and it is even a kind of elegance. "Once in ten years, I dreamed of Yangzhou and won the honor of the brothel." The famous poet Liu Sanbian spent half his life in the brothel and became an eternal romantic.

However, brothels are also divided into grades, roughly like the classification of stars in later generations of clubs: the names of first- and second-class brothels are mainly "Yuan", "Guan" and "Ge", while the names of third- and fourth-class brothels are mostly "room", "Class", "Building", "Shop" and "Xiaxia" are named.

In the eyes of the coachman, Wu Song and Zhao Dian, with their thick backs and hulking waists, exuded a faint arrogance. They should go to places like Sanfu Ban, Jiuxiang Tea House, and Yuelai Store, where the girls are plump, enchanting, and Lives well and is resistant to tossing, which is very suitable for Wu Song and Zhao Dian, who are good at fighting.

As for the handsome young man like Zhao Hao, who looked young, rich and talented, he naturally wanted to go to such elegant places as Tianxianglou and Huancaige.

"Okay, how about going to Tianxiang Pavilion in the south of the city? The high officials in the city love to go there. The ladies and sisters look like spring onions, they play the music well, and they sing like fairies." generally."

Zhao Hao didn't answer, but took out a bunch of money from the big bag at Zhao Dian's feet and threw it over. The coachman caught it quickly, thanked him with a smile on his face, and urged his horse to go south of the city.

Search the whole city, if you want to sleep peacefully without wronging yourself, the only place to go is a brothel.

First, the chances of the brothel being investigated are relatively small, after all, the backers who can open the brothel are extremely hard; second, even if they are searched in the brothel, Zhao Hao can still reveal his identity.

Mr. Zhao left Hangzhou to go north, and stayed in Suzhou on the way back to Jiangning. Look suspicious.

……

Seeing Zhao Hao and his party coming, the two servants greeted them attentively, especially seeing Zhao Hao's outfit, which might not be worth twenty guanyin, they seemed even more respectful.

Following the two young men through a small courtyard and into a brightly lit building, Zhao Hao started to visit a brothel for the first time in his life.

According to the dark historical records of the original owner, Zhao Hao had the chance to cross through the big sword in the brothel so smoothly, so Zhao Hao had to put on a careless look on his face, pretending to be a veteran.

The table in the lobby was brightly lit, silk and bamboo were clear and melodious, and on the stage covered with red carpet in the middle, several pretty women were playing the orchestra, their beautiful eyebrows were clear, gentle, and flawless, without any provocative or seductive look.Apparently, these are the legendary girls who are performing arts but not themselves.

The boy asked him softly what services he needed, but Zhao Hao stopped him.Because the other party asked some jargon, not fast food, night package, sauna, foot bath, oil massage, massage and other jargon, but asked the young master if he wanted to "play tea", or "drink flower wine", "la shop ", "Residency"... I don't understand it at all.

Fortunately, without waiting for Zhao Hao to answer, Zhao Dian who was at the side had already answered first: "I'm going to make a dry shop, two rooms, no girls."

Before the words fell, the young servant's face suddenly fell down, and his voice became cold. Just as he was about to say, "This shop does not open up dry shops", Zhao Dian and Wu Song looked fierce enough to fight tigers. After all, he didn't dare to speak anymore, but he yelled in an extremely unhappy voice, "Dry shop, two rooms."

"This young master has a handsome appearance and an extraordinary bearing. At first glance, he is like a dragon and a phoenix. The girls are afraid that they will compete to serve the young master when they see it... It may be difficult for the ordinary makeup powder to catch the young master's attention. It just so happens that a group of young ladies came to the shop. People, everyone has both talent and appearance, why don't you order a girl to play a tune to relieve your boredom, maybe you will have a chance to hang clothes in the hall."

A loud voice sounded behind Zhao Hao. Zhao Hao turned his head and saw a tall man standing behind him with a smile on his face and an extremely attentive expression.

The shopkeeper of the brothel, commonly known as... can't be described, so I will call it the shopkeeper for the time being.

Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I'll come from another place, I'm tired, I'll have a rest, and then I'll learn about the beauty of girls from your place."

The shopkeeper laughed heartily: "Okay, I'll give the three guests two of the most elegant rooms... Guest officers please."

Zhao Hao smiled slightly, and followed the shopkeeper into a good room.

After the three of Zhao Hao were escorted inside, the shopkeeper suddenly turned his head and whispered to a young servant: "These three people have extraordinary looks, they came to make the dry shop early in the morning, and they spoke with foreign accents, and there seemed to be weapons in their bags. His behavior is extremely suspicious, so report it to Chen Tijutsu quickly."

The young man made a promise and ran away.

In the private room, Zhao Hao put the latch on the door, lay down on the bed and fell asleep, Wu Song and Zhao Dian next door took turns to sleep, so there was no need to worry if they were the only ones on guard.

I don't know how long he fell asleep, but Zhao Hao was suddenly awakened by a knock on the door and noise, he jumped up hastily, and opened the door.

I saw Wu Song and Zhao Dian holding swords and confronting a group of policemen, refusing to give in to each other.

The leader, who was born extremely burly, looked at his clothes and looked like he should be the post of superintendent, Chao Wusong and Zhao Dian said loudly: "Suzhou government handles the case, please cooperate with them, otherwise the crime of resisting arrest will be aggravated!"

"It's so courageous, the Suzhou government actually handled the case on me!"

With a yell, the door of the next room was opened, and a person came out, dressed in purple like crimson, and as clean as jade.

Chen Tijutsu turned around and was about to get angry, but when he saw Zhao Hao's appearance clearly, he couldn't help but said: "Young Master Zhao!"

Zhao Hao was still thinking about how to prove his identity, but he saw that Chen Tiha respectfully bowed to Zhao Hao: "I don't know that the young master is here, please forgive me."

Zhao Hao asked suspiciously, "How do you recognize me?"

Chen Tixia respectfully said: "Several months ago, the young master offered a plan to defeat the rebels, and then he rode his horse into Suzhou City with Xuan Shuai. The people in Suzhou City admired his magnificent appearance, and the young one still had a fresh memory, so he recognized him. "

Zhao Hao made a plan to destroy Suzhou, not only the official family was reported, but also many people in Suzhou city knew about it.In addition, when entering the city that day, Tong Guan asked Zhao Hao to enter the city side by side, and the difference between the two was only a horse head. The young and handsome Zhao Hao, who was dressed in fresh clothes and angry with horses, left a deep impression on the people who greeted him along the way. .

Then Chen Tijue exchanged polite greetings, and then led them away from Tianxianglou.

As soon as Chen Tixia and his party left, the shopkeeper ran over with sweat all over his face. He looked extremely terrified, and apologized to Zhao Hao in a crying voice: "This old slave is guilty, this old slave is guilty, I don't know The arrival of my young master almost caused a big mistake, and this old slave must die!"

My son? !
"Could it be that the brothel here belongs to the family?" Zhao Dian asked suspiciously.

The shopkeeper hurriedly nodded yes, and expressed in words that it was also his idea that Chen Tiha came here to search.

Zhao Hao was in a mess for an instant, and couldn't help cursing this idiot secretly, but there was a look of dumbfounding on his face.

If I knew this earlier, why would I go to Feishen to stay in some inn...

The onlookers who had been watching all around also dispersed one after another, and a lot of benefactors of Tianxianglou were faintly heard bluffing, "I said this young man looks so familiar, he is Mr. Zhao who broke the traitor" and so on.

Seeing that the people around him had dispersed, Zhao Hao yawned and was about to go back to his room to catch up on sleep when he suddenly saw a familiar figure standing in front of him on the attic.

The man was slightly thin and thin, dressed in white clothes like snow, holding a folding fan in his hand. Seeing Zhao Hao looking over, he turned to look at him, turned around and went downstairs, and left.

Zhao Hao's expression changed, and before he could say hello to Zhao Dian and Wu Song, he hurriedly chased them out.

After chasing for hundreds of steps, he came to a secluded place, and the man suddenly turned his head.

Although she was dressed in men's clothes, she couldn't hide her beautiful face and slim figure. It was the former female leader of the rebel army - Fang Baihua.

The two stood still, their eyes met, and they looked at each other speechlessly.

Zhao Hao suddenly remembered something, and asked, "You led people into the thief's mansion last night?"

Fang Baihua said coldly: "With such an excellent opportunity, you can't even kill the Zhu thief. Let me see how you can fulfill my brother's entrustment?"

Zhao Hao smiled indifferently: "In the thief's mansion, there are like clouds of guards, so it's hard to get them in a hurry, but I don't believe it, he, Zhu Mian, doesn't leave the city all day long!"

Fang Baihua's face was full of sarcasm: "So what if we go out of the city? Three days later, the imperial envoy will arrive in Suzhou, and the decree will be given to the Zhu thief officer to return to his post. Zhu thief must go out of the city to meet him, but there will be hundreds of guards around him." , just relying on you and three people, how can you do anything to him?"

Zhao Hao's eyes brightened, and he said with a smile, "After three days, I will show you the head of that vermilion thief!"

After finishing speaking, he stopped entangled with Fang Baihua and strode back, leaving a mysterious figure behind him...
