Inscription of Different Cases

Chapter 52 The Sea of ​​Clouds 2

In the early morning of the next day, Han Lang rubbed his eyes in a daze, and after a while on the bed, he gradually realized: He Yijiu was too well prepared last night, could it have been planned long ago?

Of course He Yijiu didn't admit it, and while putting the freshly prepared breakfast on the table, he said, "How is it possible? If you don't believe me, go ask my brothers."

Han Lang thought it would be useless to ask, he must have colluded.Seeing his expression, He Yijiu understood what he was thinking, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Do you regret it?"

Han Lang bit his lip and shook his head.

"Then it's over. It's not good to think wildly, it hurts the liver. Have you been thinking about it these days? Come, let me take a pulse."

Han Lang stretched out his hand obediently, but he pulled it away for a long time, and his mouth was almost swollen from being bitten.Seeing that the situation was about to develop towards Qianchai Lihuo again, Han Lang hurriedly pushed the other party away, cursing: "He Yijiu, you don't want to lose your face, do you?"

He Yijiu let him go with a smile, took his pulse seriously, and then caught him for a training session: "I won't be here for a few days and you are messing around again, aren't you? You don't take food or medicine , you are not afraid of short life."

Han Lang was taken aback by him for a moment, wondering what to do.In the end, He Yijiu stretched out his hand and slapped his butt hard, because there was a muffled "slap" sound because his pants were blocking it.Han Lang almost jumped up and yelled, "You're courting death!"

"Next time I see you tormenting yourself like this, I'll beat you here," He Yijiu said with a straight face, "I'm not joking with you."

Knowing that the other party cared about him, Han Lang lost his temper and muttered, "Got it."

After the meal, He Yijiu sent Han Lang to the county government office. Han Lang asked him if he was okay today, and He Yijiu waved his hand and said, "I can do whatever I want, you have the final say."

"Then you wait here for me, I'll go in and tell old man Qian to come."

What Han Lang wanted to talk about was about the Yunhai Villa. Since He Yijiu found out that Shi Qing was in the villa, he must go and have a look.County magistrate Qian generally would not make things difficult for him in the investigation of cases. After hearing what he said, he waved his hand and let him go, and told him: "Weigh your own proportions, don't cause trouble for me."

It is said that he is going to be promoted, so he is most afraid that someone will make trouble at this juncture.Han Lang respectfully replied yes, originally wanted to call for more people, but a magistrate magistrate came out halfway, looked at him and said, "You are so good at martial arts, why do you need more people if you just find someone? We don't have many people in the county." A decent candidate, someone from Beijing will come tomorrow, I have to ask a few people to stand guard, right?"

Han Lang had no choice but to let no one do it. It wasn't the first time he did it alone.Going out and talking to He Yijiu, the other party complained to the magistrate for a few words, then put Han Lang on the shoulder and said cheerfully: "What are you afraid of, He Yijiu is at your disposal."

Han Lang punched him: "Stop flattering."

The two went to the post station to rent a horse, and headed towards Yunhai Villa.On the way, He Yijiu explained to him how he found Shi Qing. It turned out that the dozens of people in the villa had to be brought up by porters from the bottom of the mountain for their daily meals. One of the porters knew He Yijiu's younger brother, After stuffing a few dollars, a lot of clues came out.

"He said that the villa was very strange. Some important people often went in, and they didn't know what they were doing. The decoration inside was quite luxurious, comparable to a royal garden, and the back kitchen was the biggest he had ever seen. He had never been to other places, but once. In a daze, he went the wrong way and was almost beaten to death."

"Killed to death?"

"Well, that's what he told me. The servant in charge kept asking him what he was doing here. He said that he was so scared that he shook his head and explained. The other party gave him suspicious glances and made a gesture of wiping his neck, which scared him so much ran away."

"He really didn't see anything?"

"No, if he really saw it, he might die."

Han Lang clutched the reins and began to think, because he hadn't given the order for a long time, the horse under him gradually fell behind He Yijiu.The latter had no choice but to stop and wait for him, and waved his hand in front of his eyes: "Don't worry, we'll be there soon?"

Yunhai Villa is right in front of you, with high walls still standing and the gate firmly closed.Han Lang went forward and knocked on the door. To their surprise, someone came out to greet them soon, as if waiting for a long time.

It was still the old doorman who bowed and said, "Two guests, please come in."

Han Lang and He Yijiu looked at each other, and they both saw the message "may be fraudulent" in each other's eyes.None of them said a word, one held the hilt of "Feng Buyan", the other clenched his fist secretly, and silently followed behind the doorman and walked in.Facing him was the hall with plaques that Han Lang had seen before. It was built in such a majestic and majestic manner that it was comparable to the main hall in a Buddhist temple.But Mengong didn't lead the two of them to it, but walked along a small path shaded by flowers and trees, and walked inward on the road paved with gravel.

The roadside is full of flowers, roses, wisterias, and peonies are in full bloom, and there are lotus flowers in the pond farther away, covering almost all the flower species suitable for garden planting in the season.Seeing this, He Yijiu couldn't help but whistled, and said sarcastically, "Your master is really rich, and he has nowhere to spend it."

Han Lang secretly tugged at him, and he closed his mouth.The doorman only listened to it as a compliment, and responded calmly: "Thank you for your compliment."

Men Gong led them all the way to a study-like place, then called the servant girl to serve tea for the two of them, and then retreated together.During the period, he didn't say anything about who the owner was and when he would show up, he just owed them to wait here.So a quarter of an hour passed, and a quarter of an hour passed, and the master still did not show up.He Yijiu poured down a full cup of tea in one gulp, put the cup aside, and said coldly, "I'm putting on airs on purpose, just to show us."

Han Lang was also slightly dissatisfied, but he suppressed it and didn't show it: "Wait a little longer."

To pass the time, the two got up and walked around.This study seems to have the function of receiving guests. The innermost part is a large and simple desk, and two nanmu armchairs and a tea table are placed on the side.On the other side is an ornate flower and bird screen, and a porcelain plate next to it holds a ginger-yellow incense stick, the grease on it is like icing sugar.Han Lang didn't know what it was, and after pointing it out to He Yijiu, he said it was Canaan incense.

"Canaan is the best of agarwood. Such a piece is probably worth several hundred taels of silver, yet it is placed here only to decorate the study."

Han Lang curled his lips after hearing this, and turned his attention to the decorations on the wall. He didn't know calligraphy and painting and couldn't tell the authenticity, but judging from the degree of luxury he saw so far, he didn't think they were fake.

"Who do you think lives here?" He lowered his voice and asked He Yijiu.

He Yijiu just took out a tortoise shell pen tube and held it between his fingertips to play with. He raised his head after hearing this, and said with a cold smile, "It's either a high-ranking official or a wealthy businessman."

"The latter is more likely," Han Lang said with a frown. "If you were a big shot in Beijing, you wouldn't build such a luxurious house in such a remote place."

"What if it's someone from the rivers and lakes?"

"I've never heard of it." Han Lang shook his head, then glanced at He Yijiu again, "You know more about this than I do, and you have no clue, so I have no way of knowing."

He Yijiu turned around, stood in front of the window and stared at the lush garden outside, and calmly came to a conclusion: "This place is very suspicious."

Han Lang nodded knowingly.

About an hour later, the host came late, and as soon as he entered the door, he enthusiastically dragged the two of them to apologize.Han Lang couldn't react. He thought that the person who owned such a luxurious manor would be a domineering old man, or a rich businessman with a lot of money. He didn't expect that the person who came in was a short middle-aged man with curved eyebrows. Small eyes always give people a feeling of slippery like loach.For example, now, when meeting for the first time, he smiled as if meeting an old friend whom he hadn't seen for many years. While leading the two to a seat, he handed over his hands to make amends, saying that there was a dignitary visiting from Beijing just now, and he couldn't move away to let the two go. I am really sorry that people will wait for a long time again.

"My surname is Fang, Fangyuan, haha, the Fangyuan in the Tianyuan place," he said with a smile on his face, but the smile only floated on the surface, as false as the reflection of the lake.Han Lang was about to introduce himself, but he suddenly interrupted Han Lang with his index finger, and said with a smile, "Wait a minute, let me guess first. Hehe, it's Mr. Han, the county captain of Anping County, right? I've seen you for a long time."

After all, he gave a deep bow, and Han Lang frowned at his pompous gesture, but he still resisted a few polite words with the other party.He Yijiu never liked to go around the bush, now he directly wrote his disgust on his face, and secretly sneered.After Fangyuan finished speaking, he turned to He Yijiu in doubt, with an uncertain look in his eyes: "This is He Tianshi from Anping County, right?"

This time not only He Yijiu, but even Han Lang wanted to laugh.It's been a long time since I saw someone called He Yijiu Tianshi. Anyway, he is a fake, and he mostly calls himself "He Ye" on weekdays.This person probably already knew He Yijiu's background, but he didn't know how to address him, so he directly called him Heavenly Master.

However, it can also be proved that this Fangyuan has investigated the details of the two of them very clearly. People with such skills may not be easy to deal with.

He Yijiu didn't give him face, he brushed his braids indifferently, and replied coldly: "Exactly."

Now that both sides have introduced, Han Lang cleared his throat, intending to explain why he came.In the end, before he could speak, Fang Yuan smiled again, and interrupted him: "Let me guess again, Mr. Han will go to the Three Treasure Hall for nothing, so he must be here to handle the case?"

Han Lang frowned, nodded in agreement.He Yijiu snorted coldly, and said bluntly: "Could it be that your Excellency is still celebrating the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and only knows how to guess riddles?"

Fang Yuan scratched his head and smiled, "Haha, Fang was just joking. The two of you are rare guests or distinguished guests. I, Yunhai Villa, will not dare to neglect you. The two people in this villa are free to inspect, and Fang will accompany you all the way. If you have any questions, just bring them up." Yes."

"Thank you, Your Excellency." Han Lang nodded.

Under his guidance, the two left the study.Regarding whether Shi Qing is in the Yunhai Villa, Fang Yuan replied that it was impossible. "You two have also seen it. My villa is for myself and my friends to enjoy the cool and summer heat. I will avoid such suspects. How can I take them in?"

"Perhaps it was done by the servants of the mansion, and your Excellency didn't know about it?" Han Lang asked.

Fang Yuan smiled easily: "There are nearly a hundred handymen and servants in this villa, and they are all loyal people. They will never do such outrageous things without telling me."

He Yijiu, who had been silent all this time, raised his eyes and glanced at him ferociously: "Don't pretend to be confused, it's such a big house, can you really guarantee that Shi Qing hasn't come in?"

"Absolutely not." Fang Yuan still kept smiling.

Sure enough, after this pass, there was no trace of Shi Qing at all.The villa is huge, completely enclosing the hills with a radius of tens of mu. Inside, there are many houses and corridors, which can make people dizzy.Han Lang couldn't help asking how Fangyuan could build such a luxurious villa, but he saw the other party stroking his short beard and saying complacently, "This is all my ancestors' savings from years of business."

"This villa too?"

Fang Yuan nodded: "The villa has been around for several generations."

He Yijiu suddenly interjected, "What kind of business do you guys do?"

"It used to be a business of antiques, silk, and spices, but it's all old things. Now I'm just doing some small business. Thanks to the support of a few adults in Beijing, I have such a peaceful life."

Han Lang thought to himself that this person is quite capable, he has already stretched out his hands to the capital, seeing that he speaks and acts like the kind of person who flatters his horse and follows the trend, no wonder he has a big family and a big career.He Yijiu probably had the same idea, and secretly mouthed the words "dog fights official power" to Han Lang. Seeing this, Han Lang curled up his lips helplessly, and tugged at his arm to make him restrain himself a little. No matter how unpleasant it is, don't worry about it for a while.

As dusk fell, they still hadn't walked through the entire mountain villa.One is that Han Lang checked carefully, every servant would question him, and the other is that the villa is too big, and it would take a lot of time to walk through it.Although Fangyuan was introducing his manor to the two of them along the way, such as who built this corridor, and which poems were contained in that landscape, they were not interested in listening, and they glanced away and pretended not to hear anything.

Once on the curved bridge in the middle of the lake, Fang Yuan walked ahead alone and was still babbling, He Yijiu suddenly grabbed Han Lang's sleeve, and slapped Han Lang hard on his face against the backdrop of the rippling water.

Han Lang almost cursed, he really wanted to kick He Yijiu into the lake.He Yijiu got his way and hurriedly behaved, the two were sticking together, Fang Yuan suddenly turned sideways, and they were so frightened that they separated quickly, a trace of guilty conscience flashed in each of their eyes.

Especially Han Lang, complaining in his heart that he did such a thing, which simply violated his purpose of handling the case.At this moment, Fang Yuan, who knew nothing, smiled and said, "It's getting late, why don't you two stay overnight?"

Han Lang wanted to refuse, but He Yijiu responded first, "Yes, you can arrange a place for us."

Han Lang glared at him, but he signaled with his eyes to be calm.Fang Yuan immediately called the servants to prepare dinner for them. At this time, He Yijiu suggested that he wanted to visit the guest room, and Fang Yuan immediately nodded in agreement.

After the two of them entered the room, they had a chance to be alone. Han Lang was about to say why he bothered here all night, but He Yijiu pointed to the outside and winked at him and said, "Do you think it's okay to be accompanied by this guy like a bastard?" What can you find out?"

"Then you mean...?"

"This place is weird." He Yijiu smiled faintly. "The surname Fang is vague about what kind of business he is in, and he can do it just by relying on Beijing's help? Don't tease me. If he didn't violate the king's law It’s a trick, I’ll write my name upside down.”

Han Lang pondered for a moment, then nodded his head: "Indeed. Thinking back to the kidnapping case, those two people named me Zha Yunhai Villa. They must know something, but they dare not say it because of some kind of pressure."

"And the man surnamed Fang has protruding cheekbones, a crooked nose, and a ruthless face," He Yijiu said. Seeing Han Lang looking at him suspiciously, he explained, "Don't believe me, let me see Basically it’s accurate, I didn’t learn it in vain when I was a child. If we go out at night, we will definitely see something different from the daytime, just look at it.”

"Let's just trust you."

He Yijiu smiled and hooked his shoulder, but he didn't push it away.
