Chapter 81
In the flower hall, Wan An visited Lu Guangzu on Qipan Street under the pretext of admiring the scenery.

This time I came here not to enjoy the scenery, but to do things about Caochangyuan.

Through the two tenants of Changping Princess Huangzhuang, Li Dingguo and He Jin successively snatched the prostitute gambling house from Liu Eitou and Wan Siquan.

It's hard to take away, and even harder to keep.

Relying on his personal bravery, Li Dingguo repelled the steady stream of green sticks, and temporarily took control of the prostitute gambling house.

Wan An came here today for only one thing, hoping that Lu Guangzu would invite a brave border general to take back the prostitute gambling house from Li Dingguo and He Jin one by one by virtue of his relationship with the generals in western Liaoning.

Lu Guangzu said the only good news since this period of time: "I have already sent a letter to the border, and invited a border general to solve this matter. In half a month, the border general will be here." It's time to arrive in the capital. At that time, Li Dingguo and He Jin can only give up the prostitute gambling house."

Wan An's gloomy mood eased a lot: "Li Mian's wish to settle the disputes caused by the Caochangyuan and stand up for Princess Changping by means that can't be used on the table is just wishful thinking. In front of many yamen in the capital, Li Mian's It won’t be a big wave if you use the three indiscriminate methods.”

Lu Guangzu agreed with him, and said another thing: "Sun Chuanting's name is very useful, and it can only be used once. It is just to protect He Jin from being besieged by the green hand stick for the time being, and to protect the second person. It is possible, unless another Li Dingguo is found, it will be difficult to snatch the prostitute gambling house from Lu Yangguan."

Li Mian dealt with Liu Eitou and Wan Siquan one after another, leaving Lu Yangguan as the most difficult one.

When Wan An heard what Lu Guangzu said, he understood what he meant, and he was doing him a favor.

Lu Yangguan was his concubine, Liu Eitou and Wan Siquan fell into Li Mian's hands one after another, only Lu Yangguan kept the prostitute gambling house.

The commanders of Wucheng Bingma Division have bright faces. When they promote their subordinates to serve as Qianhu in the future, they can't help but think about Lu Guangzu a little bit more.

In officialdom, a few points are enough.

Enough for Lu Guangzu to stand out and become a thousand households from many subordinates.

Because of Li Mian's tossing about in Caochangyuan, Tian Weijia, the prime minister of Dali Temple, and Sun Shoulian, a thousand household from the Four Guards Camp, followed closely to Lu Guangzu's house.

At present, only Lu Yangguan still controls the prostitutes and gambling houses. They are officials who help their respective yamen to control the silver profits of Caochangyuan. caused riots.

Otherwise, this month's silver cannot be turned into filial piety such as ice, carbon, and other filial piety in time, and it will inevitably lead to poor performance.

Tian Weijia said firmly: "Without Li Dingguo's bravery and Sun Chuanting's reputation, I want to see how Li Mian can take away the prostitute gambling house controlled by Lu Yangguan."

Sun Shoulian was originally a proud soldier, and now he is the eunuch Wang Zhen of the 24th Yamen. He said arrogantly: "I will take my cronies to Lu Yangguan's house. If Li Mian still wants to use Li Dingguo and He He Jin's method, no matter who comes, I will let him come and go."

Wan'an, Lu Guangzu, and Tian Weijia were completely at ease. With Sun Shoulian in command, he was born as a frontier general in western Liaoning. Back then, he fought at the border with a knife and became rich.

With him sitting in Lu Yangguan's house, no matter whether he used force to break in or use low-level methods like setting fire to store it, it would not be effective.

Sun Shoulian's idea was unanimously agreed by several officials in the flower hall, so he stopped sitting here, got up immediately, and went to Lu Yangguan's house.

He also intentionally revealed the news, the meaning is obvious, and he warned Li Mian and Sun Chuanting not to toss any more, otherwise they would only suffer for themselves.

When Sun Chuanting got the news, he didn't flinch in the slightest. He was about to break into Lu Yangguan's house alone on the spot and wrestle with Sun Shoulian himself.

Li Mian stopped Sun Chuanting who wanted to do it himself, smiled and said, "No hurry, I'll wait for Lao Huihui's method."

Sun Chuanting was full of doubts about Li Mian's words. What kind of tricks could a salt cooker have in front of Sun Shoulian who was personally in charge.

Li Mian was calm and invited Sun Chuanting to a remote house in Caochangyuan. It was dilapidated and simple, very similar to the house where He Jin lived.

The two walked into the house and saw an old man about 50 years old sitting on the threshold of the main room, holding a pipe in his hand, smoking pipes one after another.

When the old man saw the distinguished guest coming, he tapped the tobacco stick in his hand on the ground, put it on the cloth strip around his waist, arched his hands and said, "The master is here, please sit inside quickly, the little old man will make a drink for the master right now." Pot of good tea."

Li Mian and Sun Chuanting walked in and sat on the official hat chair with missing legs, which was padded with a few bricks.

The furnishings in the main room are very simple, only two limping official hat chairs, and the only relatively complete utensil is a desk.

There is an incense burner with three sticks of sandalwood on it, enshrining a painting on the wall.

Sun Chuanting took a look and found that the person enshrined was Monk Zou, not Ge Hong, the patriarch of the salt industry.

This made him feel strange, logically speaking, Ge Hong should be enshrined, but how did Monk Zou, the ancestor of the sugar industry, be enshrined.

Ever since Sun Chuanting walked in, he felt that everything in the yard was very strange, especially Monk Zou, the ancestor of the sugar industry, was enshrined in the house, which made him feel even more weird.

He came here today for the Caochang Yard, and just in time he learned that Sun Shoulian was sitting next to Lu Yangguan himself, so he didn't have the heart to pay attention to all the strange feelings in the yard.

Sun Chuanting ordered: "Go and call Lao Hui, Mr. Sun has something to tell him."

Caochangyuan needs to be done in advance, not the old man in front of him can handle it, it should be Lao Huihui's father.

It can't be Laohui himself, just because of his age and physical strength, let alone going to the grass yard to fight for the prostitute gambling house, it may not be able to withstand Lu Yangguan's punch.

The old man's answer was beyond Sun Chuanting's expectation: "The little old man is the young master who wants to find Lao Huihui."

Sun Chuanting turned his head to look at Li Mian next to him, and frowned: "Is he always returning?"

Sun Chuanting's words were not asking who Lao Hui was, but asking Li Mian to find an old man in his fifties.

Li Mian gave an affirmative answer: "He is the No. 3 tenant of Huangzhuang, Lao Huihui, and he is as good as the fake, and he is not wrong."

Old Huihui saw Sun Chuanting's suspicion, knew what he was thinking, and didn't believe that an old man could take away the prostitute gambling house from Lu Yangguan.

He didn't have any dissatisfaction, on the contrary, he felt that it was reasonable. Anyone who saw that Lao Hui was an old man would have the same suspicion.

Lao Hui smiled honestly: "Mr. Sun, have you ever heard of Tiaoba?"
