Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 41 Ask
Huiguang nodded and said, "Young monk will definitely do my best to help Benefactor Li find out the truth."

The three quickly agreed on a plan, Huiguang went to examine the body, and he and Di Qing still went to Hongyan to learn something about Yang Su.

In the Cuihong Building, Di Qing, who was disguised as a man, looked around curiously.

Li Canghai patted his forehead vigorously, looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, and pulled Di Qing straight upstairs.

When those prostitutes saw the incomparably handsome Di Qing, they were all fascinated by her and winked at her desperately.

Di Qing really thought of herself as a man, and even flirted with those women.

"Little girl, wait, my uncle... ah no, I am here to pamper you, ahahaha!"

When Li Canghai heard this, his foot slipped, his instep suddenly stepped on the ground, and he fell flat on the wooden board with a plop.

"My lord, are you alright?" Before he could look up, a clear female voice suddenly came from his ear.

Li Canghai raised his head, just in time to see an extremely beautiful face.

Different from Di Qing's playfulness and Xue Xuan's tranquility, the woman in front of her was full of charm.

"You are... Miss Hongyan?" Li Canghai asked.

The woman was a little stunned, as if she didn't expect the other party to know her name.

"Young master recognizes the slave family?"

Li Canghai hurriedly got up, he took out the Governor's token from his waist, and said: "I have something to ask Miss Hongyan, I wonder if Miss can tell the truth?"

"Since it's the official servant, please talk inside, I will know everything and talk endlessly." Hongyan bowed slightly and led Li Canghai to the room.

Di Qing was already surrounded by a group of women, but she was having fun, hugging a few women and laughing triumphantly.

Fearing that she would cause trouble again, Li Canghai hurried over and dragged her out of the crowd, and dragged her upstairs.

"Miss Hongyan, I think you also know about the murder case in Jixianglou. Let me just say that both Yang Su and Huangfuwei were related to the girl. How does the girl see them?" After Li Canghai sat down, Just ask directly.

A trace of sadness appeared on Hongyan's face. After she was silent, she said, "The two young masters have made promises to Hongyan, but these are all in the past."

Li Canghai nodded, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, neither of the two sons was sincere to her, and for them, Hongyan was a tool to take revenge on the other.

After a moment of silence, Li Canghai continued to ask: "Yang Su was with the girl before going to Jixiang Tower. Did the girl notice anything unusual about him at that time?"

"Not really." Hong Yanxiu frowned slightly, she thought for a while and said, "However, Mr. Yang once said some nonsense when he was drunk."

"What nonsense?" Li Canghai keenly felt that there would be some important information in it, so he hurriedly raised his ears.

Hongyan thought about it for a moment, and said: "When he was drunk, he once said something like 'revenge'."

"Is that all?" Li Canghai frowned suddenly.

"There is one more thing. Mr. Yang gave mother 50 taels of gold as a deposit yesterday, saying that he would redeem me for me." Hongyan's eyes were blurred, as if he had fallen into a beautiful fantasy.

"What's so strange about this? Doesn't the fact that he is willing to redeem you mean that he will marry you?" Di Qing, who was looking around, finally calmed down and interjected a little puzzled.

Hongyan smiled wryly, and sighed: "Sister, you think too much. The Yang family is a famous family, how could you agree to me, a prostitute, marrying into the Yang family? Mr. Yang redeemed me just to let me leave Luoyang forever. Don't ever come back."

Di Qing was a little stunned. She blinked her eyes and said incredulously, "How do you know I'm a woman?"

Hongyan smiled sweetly, and said: "Hongyan has no other skills in this Cuihonglou, but he has practiced a bit of kung fu in understanding people. This little thing can still be seen."

Di Qing's emphasis has always been different from that of normal people, and Li Canghai has learned this for a long time, so he is used to it.

"Yang Su wants you to leave Luoyang, why?" Li Canghai frowned.

"Although the slave family is a prostitute, she is not stupid. Mr. Yang's friendship with the slave family is only to revenge Huangfu Wei. If it has no value, how can the slave family exist?" Hongyan smiled sadly, with tears in his eyes.

"How can there be such a reason, such a perfidious and persuasive person should be scolded by the world! Sister Hongyan, don't be sad, I'll teach him a lesson!" Di Qing, who had never tolerated sand in her eyes, suddenly became angry when she heard this. Filled with righteous indignation, she fell into a runaway state, but fortunately Li Canghai pulled her back in time.

Li Canghai pondered in his heart, Yang Su and Huangfu Wei had fought openly and secretly for so many years, and Hongyan was the key to it, how could he let her go so easily?

"Value, value." Li Canghai muttered a few words to himself, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he patted the table down suddenly, and shouted: "I know!"

"What do you know?" Di Qing glanced at him angrily and asked with a displeased face.

She was still brooding about Li Canghai blocking her.

"The reason why Yang Su took great care of Miss Hongyan was to take her away from Huangfuwei and humiliate him. But he asked Miss Hongyan to leave Luoyang, which means that he no longer needs to use such methods to humiliate her." Huangfuwei, if this happens, unless they get rid of the past and rebuild their relationship, there is only one possibility left, and that is that he knows that Huangfuwei will definitely die."

Li Canghai felt that this reasoning was reasonable, and it was the only explanation for what Yang Su was doing now.

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and catch him, Miss Ben will teach him a lesson!" Di Qing clenched her fists, wishing she could pull Yang Su in front of her and beat him up.

"Everything is just speculation now, what we need is evidence." The corners of Li Canghai's mouth turned up slightly, and he gradually became concerned.

It was nearly three o'clock when we left Cuihong Building.

Li Canghai was worried that Di Qing was working too hard, so he asked her to go back to rest, while he went back to Jixiang Tower.

At Jixianglou, which was originally peaceful, many carriages gathered at some time, and the entrance of Jixianglou was blocked by people.

"General Huangfu, why do you detain my son?"

"Huangfukun, this old man was once a minister of the imperial court. Today, you set up a private court and imprisoned the son of a Confucian scholar without authorization. You can't say that this old man wants to refer to you for a copy!"

"General Huangfu, do you know what crime it is to set up a court without permission? Let him go quickly, and we will never pursue this matter!"

Before Li Canghai squeezed in, he heard some old or severe accusations.

Huangfu Kun sat on the armchair without saying a word, his face sank like water, his cold eyes exuded a palpitating fierce light.

His eyes swept across the crowd fiercely, and he suddenly shouted: "Shut up for me! Your son's life is your life, but my son's life is not your life? Today, the general will leave the words alone, unless the murderer comes forward and pleads guilty. Otherwise, no one will even think about leaving this place!"
