Had a meal.
Everyone sat down in the small hall.
There are no maids in Dali Temple.
Xu Zan and Wen Baolin made tea together and poured a cup for everyone. Xu Zan wanted to play tricks again. Xie Xun gave him a warning look and asked, "How is it?"
"Those people are keeping a close eye on me and Baolin secretly," Xu Zan put away his playful intentions and said solemnly, "Just based on those beggars and gangsters, we have found the seventh one from the left in the four lanes of West Second Street. There is a problem in the courtyard. We need to investigate further to find out what the specific problem is."
Chen Anning took the paper that Xie Xun had sketched before, found the courtyard he was talking about, and said, "It's one of the entrances to the underground Colosseum."
Xu Zan groaned, stood up and came over, took the two pages of paper from her hand, looked at the circles and triangles on them, and asked curiously: "What is this?"
"The circle painted on the carriage is the entrance to the Underground Colosseum, and the triangle painted on it is the exit of the Underground Colosseum." Chen Anning said smoothly.
Xu Zan looked at her and then at Xie Xun, "When was it found out? Why didn't I know?"
"It was Mr. Wen who found out." After briefly explaining the process of Wen Qinsang's investigation, Chen Anning added, "The investigation on the ground has been completed, and the next step is underground. Mr. Xie said that he would wait until you come back before making a decision. , tell me what you have in mind.”
"I listen to Ah Xun." After Xu Zan looked at Wen Qinsang strangely, seeing that Wen Baolin also wanted to see the paper in his hand, he handed it over, "I will do what Ah Xun said. .”
Chen Anning looked at Xie Xun.
Xie Xun looked at Xu Zan, "What did Su Changping say?"
Xu Zan shrugged, "Same as before, he is willing to cover us into the Underground Colosseum, provided that we have a safe identity. According to him, everyone who enters the Underground Colosseum is inspected very carefully. It's strict. If there's anything wrong, he will be excluded. If we can't get a secure identity, the underground Colosseum will also be suspicious of his identity, and it's very likely that he won't be able to enter next time."
Chen Anning was curious: "Where is the shopkeeper of Yanchun Tower? He is also like Song Fu, refusing to explain anything?"
"He did a very good job explaining it," Xu Zan rushed to answer, "He explained everything he could and could not explain. It's just that not many of the contents he explained could be used."
"Why?" Chen Anning was puzzled.
"Although Song Fu asked him to take care of Yan Chun Tower, he is only a peripheral person in the underground Colosseum of Hepingfang and doesn't know much." Xu Zan curled his lips and said, "Normally, in addition to taking care of Yan Chun Tower, Outside Chun Tower, the task given to him by Song Fu was to keep an eye out for any foreign boys or girls who had been sold."
"Judging from his confession, in the years he has been in charge of Yanchun Tower, he has sent people to the underground Colosseum about seven times in total, and all of them were Hu boys and girls who were sold in the West Market."
"The Baoningfang case was the first time he participated in an open robbery or abduction."
"Originally, he still wanted to buy it with money, but according to him, the ones he was selling were not good-looking, and it would take at least three months for them to be recuperated before they could be used. He didn't want to wait that long, and happened to hear someone talking about Tian Daming. After knowing that he was a thief, I took the initiative to find him and asked him to help find someone with fifty taels of silver as bait."
"After Tian Daming found Wang Yong, he led him to the courtyard where the incident occurred, killing people and robbing goods."
"The seventh courtyard from the left in the 4th lane of West Second Street was found based on his confession. It took two days to check."
"Then leave him alone," Chen Anning said. "When the case is concluded, just let him come out to testify against Song Fu and others. Now let's discuss the action plan."
Xie Xun was silent.
Everyone didn't say much and waited for him quietly.
After a long time, Xie Xun raised his eyes and looked at Wen Qinsang: "I remember that the Wei family in Guangling County had a dandy who was very good at eating, drinking and having fun."
Wen Qinsang's eyes moved slightly and then he replied, "It's Young Master Wei Qi."
Xie Xun said: "Tell me about his situation."
"Young Master Wei Qi is not often in Guangling County," Wen Qinsang said. "He spends eleven months of the year traveling around. It is said that he has nearly a hundred aliases outside. Therefore, he often It is difficult for the Wei family to know where he went and what he did after leaving Guangling County. When I returned to Guangling County in July last year, I heard someone mention that he was messing around with women and owed a lot of romantic debts. The Wei family was in the Ming Dynasty On the surface, he threatened to expel him from the Wei family, but secretly he indulged and doted on him."
"It would be a good idea to use his identity to enter the underground Colosseum. However, he behaves erratically. To prevent him from coming to the capital later to 'question his guilt', it is best to send someone to inform him."
Xie Xun turned to Xu Zan and Wen Baolin, "Tomorrow you two will check the footprints of the Seventh Young Master Wei and the people he has roughly come into contact with over the years. If there are results tomorrow night, then we will take action in three days."
Xu Zan and Wen Baolin responded.
Xie Xun looked back at Wen Qinsang, "The original plan of action was for Miss Chen Er and I to enter the underground Colosseum, and now we have to add you. No matter what happens to you these days, you must be free at any time. Stand by! If it's not convenient for you to go to the Imperial College and the eldest princess, I can go."
"In addition, you need to cooperate with the disguised secret guards to make a detailed statement about Master Wei Qi's appearance, words and deeds, etc."
Wen Qinsang should be well.
Xie Xun looked at Chen Anning again, "Before we start taking action, you should work harder and prepare more poison just in case."
Chen Anning nodded, "I understand."
Xie Xun glanced at everyone, "Do you have anything else to add?"
Wen Qinsang said: "Let's discuss the formation later. I don't know martial arts, and I will probably be held back if I enter the underground colosseum. Let's discuss it clearly. If something happens, you can deal with it easily."
Xie Xun looked at the other people: "Where are you?"
Xu Zan said: "I didn't."
Wen Baolin also followed: "Me neither."
Xie Xun looked at Chen Anning.
After thinking about it, Chen Anning said, "Song Fu's father has never looked for me."
Xie Xun glanced at Wen Baolin and said, "That's because he found him."
Seeing everyone looking at him, Wen Baolin said: "Master Song didn't come to me directly. It was the general I mentioned many times. Mr. Xu Wu sent someone to send me back from that day. Thank you the next day. Your Excellency sent someone to your home again and asked my father and me to come to Dali Temple to take up our posts. In recent days, he has come to me from time to time to try out a few words about the situation of the manager of Yanchun Tower."
"According to Master Xie's instructions, I revealed everything I could to him."
"Judging from how he tested me, Mr. Song shouldn't be too anxious."
"That's because I work hard at shouting." Xu Zan boasted, "I hold the portraits of missing boys and girls all day long, stopping and questioning people when I see them. No matter how hard I work, even a smart person can't Bewitched.”
"Then you keep working hard." After Xie Xun stopped him with one sentence, he glanced at the sky outside and said, "It's getting late, A-Zan, please send Mr. Wen back."
Xu Zan stood up and said, "Let's go."
Wen Qinsang followed him.
Wen Baolin also retreated knowingly.
Xie Xun looked at Chen Anning: "Let's go, I'll see you off."
Chen Anning did not refuse.
