The avenue is green without covering it, and the years are filled with drunken clouds.
Yihongyuan stands on one side of the avenue without any cover. This is the most prosperous area in the southwest of Yuncheng.
A gardenia lamp is hung on the door, a nanmu plaque is hung on the top, the red walls and yellow tiles are magnificent.
Before Tie Tang and his party reached the door, they smelled a faint smell of rouge.
"It smells so good!" Biqi said quietly.
Yuan Hua, who was beside him, sneered unabashedly: "Do you really want to go in? If you go in, you won't be able to get out. This is a real gentle town."
Bi Qi, who had always been unwilling to suffer losses, just turned his back to avoid Yuan Hua's gaze after hearing these words.
But he refused to show any weakness: "Brother Tang can go, so can I."
Tie Tang smiled, and Yuan Hua also smiled. It was rare to see this side of Biqi.
"Okay, this is for business, and there's nothing wrong with letting him see it." Tie Tang made a decisive decision.
But Biqi refused to give in: "Brother Tang, you haven't been here before, have you? We'll go in later... We may not know who made a fool of ourselves."
"Haha~"
Tie Tang didn't answer, just smiled, and thought to himself: "With my 1T hard drive seed's vision and knowledge, how can I still compete with this brat like you?"
The door of Yihongyuan is open, and there is no one guarding the door. It seems that all comers are welcome.
The three of them strolled inside with various little thoughts in mind.
As soon as you enter the door, you feel like you are in a different world than the one outside.
The smell of various rouges and gouache assaults your nostrils. The floor inside the building is covered with white jade, embedded with gold beads, and the ground is carved into a lotus. The petals are fresh and exquisite, and the stamens are delicate and discernible.
The four-story Yihong Courtyard is hollow inside, and a huge luminous pearl hangs from the top of the building, shining brightly like the moon.
All around, warblers and swallows were flying back and forth, and all kinds of 'literati' were arrogant and heroic.
"Oh, I'm a stranger. Do you know anyone I know?" A woman in a light green silk skirt walked forward, swaying, and brushed Biqi's face with the back of her fingers.
Just this!
Biqi fell softly to the ground, his face seemed to be smeared with the brightest red makeup, his eyes were dull, and he didn't know what to think.
Yuan Hua squatted down and covered his stomach with his hands, but he was already laughing so hard.
Tie Tang glanced around, feeling his heartbeat speeding up and his face turning red.
But how could he make a fool of himself?
Forcibly using Yi Jin's cultivation level, he suppressed all the abnormalities.
"It's different, it's different. It's shallow in the end, shallow in the end."
No matter how much you see through the illusory mirror, how can it compare to the real scene?
When the woman in the gorgeous silk skirt saw Biqi lying softly on the ground, she covered her mouth and smiled softly: "Ah, he is still a young baby. The slave family is very happy."
She half-crouched down and stretched out a hand, trying to pull Biqi up.
Just at this moment.
As if she saw a ghost, the woman collapsed to the ground and tried to crawl back with her hands on the ground.
"I don't know if the official is here. I have offended many people. Please forgive me." His eyes were already red as he spoke.
She saw the knife hanging from Biqi's waist.
Qiu Shui Yan Fei Dao!
Tie Tang pulled up Bi Qi, who was still in a daze, pinched the palm of his hand with his right thumb, and exerted force, causing Bi Qi to wake up in an instant.
"Brother Tang..." Bi Qi blushed terribly.
Yuan Hua on the side stopped teasing and stepped forward to gently pick up the woman and whisper in her ear.
"Don't panic, little lady. Go find us a clean room and ask the person in charge to come over."
The woman kept nodding her head, still twisting her very beautiful waist, and led the three of them to a more secluded wing.
"The three masters will wait here for a moment. I will go and inform the bustard immediately."
After the woman left, Yuan Hua slapped the table and laughed again. He mocked Biqi and seemed satisfied.
The so-called skill is inferior to others, and they are willing to be inferior. This is a complete defeat for Biqi. He simply closed his eyes and pretended to be dead, turning a deaf ear to Yuan Hua's words.
A few moments.
There were rapid footsteps outside the door.
The door opened, and a woman in her forties with heavy makeup walked in.
She saw Yuan Hua at a glance, walked forward with a smile while waving her handkerchief.
"Oh, I wonder who is here, it's Mr. Yuan. You haven't arrived for a few days, and Jingyi is worried about you, saying that you haven't finished all the wine you saved last time!"
"Cough cough cough!" Yuan Hua coughed loudly and glared at the madam.
"I didn't expect that Yuan Baotou was also a regular visitor?" Tie Tang turned around and patted Yuan Hua with a smile.
"Boss, please listen to my explanation..."
Tie Tang waved his hand and said nothing more, looking at the old bustard in front of him.
He 'knows' her.
In my memory, he was a difficult character who seemed to be quite capable. He was backed by wealthy families and country squires in Yuncheng and was deeply entrenched.
The madam was glared at by Yuan Hua, and she was a little annoyed at first, but when she saw Tie Tang, her expression suddenly changed and she didn't dare to be frivolous.
"My slave, I pay my respects to the Chief Catcher!" The Madam bowed deeply and did not dare to breathe loudly.
"Sit down, I have something important to ask today."
The madam pulled up a wicker chair and sat down on it, but he only sat half full.
No nonsense, Tie Tang got straight to the point.
"Did Qingfeng be here last night?"
"This..." The madam was stunned and glanced at Tie Tang, but there was no response.
She also knew that Qingfeng and Tietang didn't want to deal with each other. As a businessman, naturally she didn't want to offend either party.
"Just say whatever I ask you, why are you so stunned?" Yuan Hua stepped forward and yelled loudly.
"Yuan Captou, how could I, a prostitute, know about these things? There are singing and dancing here every night. Even if Qingxian County Captivity comes, how can I know about it?"
The face of the old bustard changed slightly, he changed his title and no longer groveled.
"Brother Tang, why don't we take him back to the cell? Those guys in the execution hall should be holding back their energy."
Prison cell, execution hall.
As soon as these two words came out, the madam's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately thought of the rumors she heard in the evening.
"Commander... Chief Catcher, are you here for the case of the headless man at the racecourse?"
"What? Can't I come over and drink some wine?" Tie Tang looked at the madam meaningfully.
"The chief arrester is willing to come, but the slave family can't ask for it, but... I don't know what this has to do with Qingxian arrest?"
Tie Tang leaned back, tapped the table with his index finger, looked at the flickering candlelight in the room, and said coldly: "From now on, I will ask and you will answer. If there is any half-truth...
I think it would be good to use this land as an academy. With so many "elegant people", they should come to support it, right? "
The madam suddenly fell to her knees.
"This slave knows everything and doesn't keep it secret."
The chief arrester of a county has no choice but to take Yihongyuan, but it is easy to take care of his own bustard.
No matter how powerful his backers were, he would not be stupid enough to go against Tie Tang, the chief catcher, for his own sake.
Besides, this is likely to involve homicide.
Thinking of this, no matter how stupid the madam is, she still understands where Tie Tang's behavior comes from, so how can she still dare to put on airs?
"Did Qingfeng be here last night?"
Same question, this time there is an answer.
"I've been here before, and it took a long time, and it even hurts the waiter like me."
"When will you come and when will you leave?"
"Not long after the Zishi period, the arresters from Qing County came and did not leave until the end of the Chou period."
"Is he alone or with a group?"
"A person comes alone, always alone, sneaking like a thief, wearing a hat on his head, but everyone here knows it's him."
Bi Qi smiled and said, "I didn't expect that guy Qingfeng to have such a story."
"Has he ever had conflicts with others, or conspired or negotiated with others?"
The old bustard lowered his head and thought carefully for a while, and then said firmly: "It shouldn't happen. After the Qingxian County police arrived, they first pretended to watch the show in the lobby on the first floor.
Later, when the slave family came forward to greet him, he eagerly entered the red hall and entered the room.
During this period...I never saw him come out. "
"Did you notice anything strange about him?"
"This... only the flower lady last night can know about."
"Go and summon her!"
"The chief catcher will wait a moment."
As soon as the door opened, there was a lot of noise outside.
"You don't have eyes, do you?"
"What happened to that man? He was walking rampant."
"Ouch, is this guy a bully? It hurt me so much."
"You're calling me, stop!"
At this time, a woman stumbled down from the second floor. After seeing the madam, she burst into tears.
"What happened? Who bullied you?"
The woman was crying, shaking her head, and pointed to the second floor with her trembling right hand.
"Dead... a dead person, Cuihong is dead, wuwu~"
