Chapter 165 The Du Mansion Case

Lin Bu and Song Shou met bosom friends with a thousand cups of wine, and talked about the past and the present while drinking, quite like seeing each other and hating the lateness.

The two of you have a bowl, I have a bowl, and a pot of peach blossom wine has bottomed out, and they both feel a little drunk.

Fortunately, both of them are people with excellent wine taste, and they don't play crazy when they are drunk, but obediently enter the room and sleep soundly under everyone's greeting.

Seeing Lin Bu lying on the bed with disheveled hair, Doctor Zhen said with disgust:
"It's still the same as when I was young. I'm not good at drinking but I'm addicted to alcohol. I'm 50 or [-] years old. It's too overpowering to compete with young men."

The young man in his mouth is not much better, his cheeks are flushed, his eyebrows are slightly frowned, and he is muttering something in his mouth. Forget about counting yourself.

Song Guichen's whole heart is on Master. Although Master loves to drink, he can control the intensity and never drinks too much easily.

Drinking like this today, in addition to "a thousand cups of wine is less than a bosom friend", perhaps, some of them are "using wine to relieve sorrow and worry more".

The master and apprentice have lived together for so many years. Song Guichen can't understand Lin Bu's every move, joy, anger, sorrow and joy. Similarly, Lin Bu knows Song Guichen's temperament best.

No matter how he obstructs him, as long as it is something she wants to do, he will never compromise.

Du Qingshan heaved a sigh of relief when Song Shou was drunk.

First inquire with Song Hu about the changes in the capital these days, try Brother Song's tone, and when he wakes up tomorrow, he will apologize again, and his anger will dissipate.

Looking at Gu Yi, Du Qingshan sighed and explained: "My father and Brother Song's father were close friends, but—"

It's just that after Du's house was destroyed, no matter how good a friend he was, he also protected himself wisely and severed his relationship with Du's house.

In fact, it can't be said to be cut off, after all, Du's mansion was reduced to ashes overnight, and the various mansions that he used to travel to and from were shocked and sighed, but they all had nothing to do with themselves.

The tragic case of extermination of more than [-] people in Du's house just left it alone.

Du Qingshan closed his eyes and frowned in pain. His father was upright all his life. He was an upright official and dared to speak out. There were not a few people who offended the court. However, what kind of hatred made the people behind him so mad that they would All the people in the whole family were killed!

The other party's movements were quick and quick, without sloppiness. Such quick actions and clean assassinations were definitely not something that ordinary assassins could do.

It's just that when Du Qingshan returned to Kaifeng from Nanyang, Du's mansion was already in ruins. He scratched out blood with his ten fingers, but he couldn't find any clues.

The only thing he knew was that those men in black who had stabbed him in the back countless times had covered their faces with iron sheets, only showing their deep and sharp eyes.

Every black-clothed assassin has only a sword, a close-fitting black robe, and an iron mask.

Other than that, nothing else.

Seeing Du Qingshan clenched his fist, knowing that he remembered the past again, he put his hand lightly on Du Qingshan's shoulder, Gu Yi firmly said:

"Brother Du, I will definitely convince my father to allow me to go to Beijing with you. No matter how vicious the murderer is, no matter what is the reason behind the destruction of Du's family, no matter how difficult it is, I will definitely reveal it to the world."

Gu Yi, who is usually as gentle as jade, spoke with a bit of pride and full of convincing power.

Du Qingshan bowed his hands in a salute, he was extremely grateful, without saying a word.

On the second day, Song Shou woke up from a hangover and felt a headache. Du Qingshan came in with a bowl of hangover soup and said flatteringly, "Brother Song, Xiaochen cooked the hangover soup himself."

Song Shou took it and drank it in one gulp, still looking at Du Qingshan coldly.

Du Qingshan said sincerely: "Brother Song, when I was in Huzhou, it was my fault that I avoided you."

"You still recognize me as Brother Song? Do you still know it's your fault?"

"Hey, of course I do, of course I know."

Song Shou looked pale, stared at Du Qingshan for a while, and sighed slightly.

"The Du mansion was destroyed overnight, and I already knew that my father rejected you. Xiao Yan, you should be angry. It's just that you and I have known each other for more than ten years. If you can't leave the palace, why don't you enter the palace to look for me, and why don't you wait for me to come out of the palace? Cough cough—"

Speaking of anger, Song Shou coughed excitedly.

"Brother Song, I really can't explain what happened at that time in a few words. It was really helpless for me to escape from Kaifeng in embarrassment."

At that time, he was bewitched by Prime Minister Wang Qinruo and others. He was obsessed with Taoism and superstitious about ghosts and gods.

Under such circumstances, let alone entering the palace, Du Qingshan couldn't even be a face saint.

There is always a force secretly preventing him from moving. No matter where he goes, endless assassinations will be summoned.

Song Shou knew that he must have his own reasons, so the anger at seeing Du Qingshan for the first time yesterday had completely dissipated, and all that remained was his distress for Du Qingshan.

"Nowadays in the court, although Wang Wengong is the prime minister, he is old and sick, and has asked to resign many times. Although the officials have not agreed, most of the government affairs are still handled by Ding Wei, the political advisor. Ding Wei and Wang Qinruo are also Friends, you have been in Hangzhou for many months—”

"Brother Song, don't worry, Wang Ruoqin doesn't know that I'm in Hangzhou."

Song Shou nodded reassuringly, and sighed again: "I have secretly investigated the case of the Du Mansion, but it was like a fog. Seeing that I was about to find a clue, this clue was inexplicably broken. This year, the only harvest That is, there are still people in Kaifeng who are eyeing you, not like people from the imperial court, but more like an organization in the Jianghu. Xiaoyan, when Uncle Du was here, did you have any contact with people in the Jianghu?"

Hearing this, Du Qingshan suddenly thought of something, but quickly suppressed the thought.

"My father, as the prime minister of Dali Temple, has captured many criminals who committed crimes of burning, killing and looting, and there are many people in the world among them."

"If it was really done by the gang of criminals caught in Dali Temple, it would not be difficult to investigate."

However, both of them knew that things were definitely not that simple.

"To tell you the truth, Brother Song, I'm planning to go back to Kaifeng."

go back?Song Shou was surprised, and immediately said decisively, "Going back to Beijing at this time is tantamount to entering the tiger's mouth again, which is not appropriate."

"There is news that Aqi has been found in Kaifeng. I have to go back."

"A Qi?"

Ah Qi is still alive?

Song Shou was overjoyed, and after seeing Du Qingshan nod his head slightly, he was even more overjoyed, but then he calmed down again.

"In the past year, I have never stopped looking for you. The streets and alleys of Kaifeng have people watching at all times, and I have never found any news about Aqi."

The meaning of these words is to ask Du Qingshan, how did he get the news that Ah Qi is still alive.

Du Qingshan trusted Song Shou very much and did not hide it. After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Brother Song, do you still remember Wu Hongzhu?"
