Inscription of Different Cases

Chapter 20 Fishy Rice 2

"What are you doing here?" Han Lang's tone was not very good, sullen.

He Yijiu glanced at him and said with a smile, "Your face is so stinky again, are you hungry?"

Others might think that these words were mocking, but Han Lang himself knew what was going on, so he snorted and did not answer.He Yijiu circled around him, and said leisurely: "How did you start this business? Isn't it the county captain, demoted?"

Han Lang didn't want to answer, so he just rolled his eyes.

"Have you received anything?"

This time, Han Lang couldn't hold back anymore, he could only suppress his emotions, and looked a little embarrassed: "Got it, thank you."

He Yijiu laughed straight: "Why do you make it look like I owe you?"

Han Lang glanced at him, and found that he was still virtuous, and he was twiddling his pigtails on his ears and smiling meanly when he was free.

"I went on patrol." Han Lang was eager to get away, although the pain in his stomach was still faint, it probably will disappear after a while.It's always been that way.

"Sure enough, you have a big temper," He Yijiu stood behind and said, suddenly grabbed Han Lang's sleeve, "Stop patrolling, go have dinner with me."

Han Lang glanced at him, and then at the nearby teahouse.County magistrate Qian was still talking with people there, although he didn't look at him, but he could see the whole vegetable market street just by turning his head.He Yijiu observed his actions, seemed to understand at this moment, and patted Han Lang on the shoulder cheerfully as soon as he rolled his eyes: "Wait, he will disappear soon."

After finishing speaking, He Yijiu wiped the soles of his feet with oil, and disappeared in an instant.After less than a stick of incense, Han Lang suddenly heard someone arguing in the teahouse. A young woman ran out, and County Magistrate Qian yelled after her, with a bright red pimple on her face. Palm prints.

Han Lang was looking at it strangely, when someone next to him said: "Yo, it's done."

Turning his head to one side, He Yijiu stood there with arms folded, laughing heartlessly.

"How did you do it? Who is that woman?"

"The nearby book stall has taken care of her business before, so she is easy to talk to." Seeing that Han Lang was at a loss, He Yijiu explained again, "It's not the book stall you think, in our lingo, it just writes about killing the door." Those people who go to the street to beg after the tragedy. Clean up and pretend to be a rich lady in trouble, and the money will come quickly."

Han Lang frowned, his attention was inexplicably diverted, and he muttered: "You know a lot of women."

He Yijiu whistled: "I'll introduce you some other day?"

"No need." Han Lang said angrily.

He Yijiu was the host, and took him directly to a nearby restaurant, where he ordered a table full of dishes.Although they were all carefully cooked, Han Lang inexplicably felt that it was not as delicious as the beggar chicken that He Yijiu roasted that day, it was too greasy, and his throat and eyes were clogged with oil.Seeing that he ate less, He Yijiu thought he had no appetite, so he couldn't help muttering, "Didn't you take your medicine properly?"

Han Lang prevaricated: "I don't have that much time to spare."

He Yijiu smiled heartily: "That's easy, I'll help you when I have time."

Han Lang was even more flustered in his heart, and quickly added: "It's unnecessary, it's too troublesome."

After speaking, he quickly picked up the bowl to drink the soup, and with a thud, he concealed his changing expression.When Han Lang put down the bowl, he met He Yijiu's blue eyes again, staring at him closely at this moment, without blinking, full of conjecture.

He also had the feeling that there was nothing to hide, as if someone had stripped off his disguise and could see through from head to toe.He Yijiu was fine when he smiled, but he stopped smiling now, the corners of his mouth and eyebrows were very quiet, he didn't know what he was thinking.If it was normal, Han Lang would probably tease him, saying that he was pretending to be a gentleman, and then He Yijiu laughed and replied: "I'm just a villain, can't I?"

But at the moment Han Lang couldn't say anything, and He Yijiu didn't speak either.The two were inexplicably deadlocked, as if something was growing and fermenting in the dark, and then quietly changed.

Later, it was Han Lang who forcibly broke the silence and turned the topic to the previous case.Men will unconsciously forget these trivial things when they encounter serious business. Sure enough, He Yijiu also returned to normal, and asked him how he was doing.

"I still don't have a clue," Han Lang sighed, and said in a low voice, "Chen Biao, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, is the most senior person in charge of Baochangba's dam repair, and then Zhou Deping, a doctor of the Ministry of Water. Now we need to find out who discovered the well salt , and who is mining, it’s too difficult.”

"Chen Biao? I haven't heard of it. I also know about Zhou Deping. I have been here before and seen their carriages." He Yijiu muttered, "It's too crazy for common people like us to find out about this kind of thing."

Han Lang also had a sad face: "I know.

"I advise you to calm down and wait a little longer," He Yijiu said. "Actually, I still want to persuade you to forget it. This matter has nothing to do with us. Unless you stop being a county captain and sharpen your head to get into the county magistrate." Or go up to the top of a higher tower. Otherwise, it’s useless to find out, and you might lose your life.”

The other party said "we", it can be seen that He Yijiu is really willing to stand on the same front with him, which makes Han Lang feel a little more fortunate.However, now he understands what He Yijiu said, so he can only nod in distress: "I know."

"It's better not to talk about it in this kind of place," He Yijiu said while carefully glancing around, "Be careful that walls have ears."

"Not at all." Han Lang blinked.In a place like Anping County, who would be interested in him, a Jiupin county lieutenant?However, he still looked around cautiously, there was a young lady at the next table with two maids.No matter how far away, there were ordinary townspeople, drinking and chatting, talking and laughing, making the hall chaotic.

"So you are naive, and you don't know how you will die when the time comes." Seeing that he didn't care, He Yijiu showed a look of hatred, "Don't forget, you were hunted down by assassins before. , how do you guarantee that the other party will not continue to take your life?"

Han Lang did think about this, but he wasn't too worried: "I'm going to come early, it's been so long since there's been no movement, I guess they don't pay much attention to me at all."

"I hope." He Yijiu gave him a deep look.

The two of them had just left the restaurant when they saw a grand red lacquered sedan walking along the road from a distance, and a man who looked like a servant was leading the way.Although the group of people were not particularly arrogant, they always felt that they were out of tune with the atmosphere of the town.

"Which one? I haven't seen it before." He Yijiu muttered.Just looking at the young man, he was dressed in brocade clothes and a jade belt, and the bearer was also wearing a short black silk hanger, striding with his head held high, exuding a sense of nobility invisibly.Ordinary merchant officials probably wouldn't do this. What is the identity of the person in the sedan chair?

Han Lang couldn't help being a little more curious, but the car curtain was only opened a small slit, so it was very convenient to see the outside from the inside, but it was difficult for people outside to see the inside clearly.If you don't look through the window, you won't be able to see clearly.

Obviously, the boy and the porters would not give such a chance to the passers-by, they walked straight forward, and the passers-by gave way one after another.Just when Han Lang and He Yijiu were about to turn around and leave, the sedan chair suddenly stopped in front of them.The two were slightly startled, and Han Lang gave a soft "ah" because he found out that he had seen this young man before.

It was the person who yelled at him when he first arrived at Baochangba to handle the case.I vaguely remember it was Xiaoquan?

Then his master...

Xiaoquan glanced at Han Lang, nodded symbolically, then turned around and opened the car curtain respectfully.A handsome man came out of it, dressed in fancy clothes, wearing silk shoes, and holding a gilded paper fan in his hand--it really was the one who met Han Lang back then.

"Meet you again, little brother." He said to Han Lang.

Han Lang subconsciously tightened his nerves. Although this person had a kind expression, just like last time, every frown and smile always made people feel an indescribable pressure.What's more, I don't know him at all, even if I met him once, there is no need to stop the sedan chair on the street.Han Lang couldn't help straightening up guardedly, and asked with a smile, "Your Excellency...?"

"Businessmen in the capital, call me Yao Qi." The man made a brief bow.As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes stayed on Han Lang's side for a while, and then swept to He Yijiu, looking him up and down several times as if he found something interesting.

He Yijiu's face darkened, and he gave the other party a cold look: "What's the matter?"

"You two are friends?" Yao Qi said with a slight smile, "This brother's eyes are turning blue, which is very strange. Dare I ask where is my hometown?

"It has nothing to do with you." He Yijiu replied.

Han Lang secretly gave He Yijiu a hand, reminding him not to be so annoying.But He Yijiu seemed to dislike Yao Qi, his brows were furrowed, and he said angrily, "What else is there? It's okay, let's go."

Han Lang grabbed him, saw that he wanted to get angry, stepped on him quickly, and cast a look of "don't offend this person, this person is not easy to mess with".So He Yijiu stood beside him silently, looking away, leaving Han Lang frowning alone to accompany Yao Qi.He originally just wanted to deal with a few casual words and find an excuse to leave.But Yao Qi's enthusiasm was too much, and he said "long admiration and long admiration" every mouthful, which made Han Lang feel irritable.

He couldn't help thinking: I've only met once, so where is the "long admiration"?

After all, he is an elder, and it is even more difficult for Han Lang to refuse if the other party's attitude is so low.So while we were talking, the other party said: "Xia Su likes to make friends with heroes from all over the world. It's a great fortune to meet two heroes recently. There are people coming and going on the street, and it's not convenient to talk. Why don't you do it yourself?" Dong, please go to the teahouse for a brief talk, okay?"

Han Lang had no choice but was worried about whether to respond, but was stepped on by He Yijiu.This time, he stepped on it very hard, obviously with the nature of revenge, and Han Lang frowned in pain.Just as he was about to speak, He Yijiu immediately took the first step and said, "No, we still have important things to do, so let's take our leave first."

After finishing speaking, he dragged Han Lang away, and Han Lang staggered a bit before following him, and was dragged four or five feet away in an instant.Han Lang turned his head once, and saw Yao Qi still standing there with a smile on his face, without any intention of chasing him.On the contrary, his little servant and a few bearers were all looking at this side arrogantly, without any warmth in their eyes, as if they were examining the prisoner.

WTF!

He broke away from He Yijiu's hand and was about to say something when he heard a soft cry from behind.When he turned his head, he saw a short figure rushing through the crowd like lightning, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.And Yao Qi just stood there without moving. It took a while for the servant beside him to realize, "Ah" strangely.

"What's going on!" the boy yelled.

Those bearers seemed to be about to take action, but they were all observing Yao Qi's reaction.Yao Qi's expression remained unchanged, he touched his body slowly, then looked innocently at Han Lang and said, "Oh, oh, this is too bad, it seems that my jade pendant was stolen by that thief."

Han Lang cursed damn it in his heart, and almost instinctively ran towards the direction where the thief disappeared.He Yijiu stood on the spot and gave Yao Qi a sharp look, then followed Han Lang closely.
