After leaving the Imperial College, after a day of settling down, Chen Kan's thoughts gradually became clearer.
Looking back on my performance today, it can be said that it was terrible.
If Xu Yuan hadn't arrived at the critical moment, I might have been stuck in those superficial things and couldn't extricate myself.
There are many simple clues that I have not thought about. Perhaps this is the purpose of the White Lotus Sect.
They just want to use means to disrupt their thoughts, make themselves tired of thinking, and break down their inner defenses.
Fortunately, when he left Jin Yiwei, he was more cautious and poached Xu Yuan.
Otherwise, I would be blinded today.
Chen Kan led a group of people slowly towards Fang's Mansion, reviewing various details of the case as he walked.
Today, his conspiracy with Xu Yuan and Shi Wen was simple.
Shi Wen took people to wait and see near the Earth Temple, while Xu Yuan sent people to check if there were any suspicious persons among the people who had left the city in the past few days.
As for himself, he was secretly angry and prepared to hold back the bad water.
It would be better to eradicate a cult like the White Lotus Sect as soon as possible.
But relying solely on the capabilities of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, it is definitely a very challenging task to completely eradicate the White Lotus Sect.
Fortunately, Chen Kan is not fighting alone. He has allies and backers.
Walking to the Qinhuai River, Chen Kan looked at the painted boats floating on the river, and suddenly thought of the faces of the six dead women.
Their faces are very delicate, without a trace of roughness, and they look very fair. Women from ordinary families will never look like that.
Chen Kan suddenly had a direction in his heart.
If such women do not come from a wealthy family, is it possible that they are women from the Qinhuai River?
"Go tell Xu Yuan and ask him to send someone to check the brothel on the bank of the Qinhuai River."
After calling a personal guard and giving instructions, Chen Kan continued towards Fang Mansion.
When passing by a brothel named Fule Yuan, Chen Kan looked up subconsciously and saw a young woman sticking her head out from upstairs. After making eye contact with Chen Kan, she looked like a frightened deer. Shrank back.
Chen Kan didn't pay too much attention to it. Judging from his appearance, he would always get a lot of looks like this when walking along the Qinhuai River. He was already used to it.
Arriving at the door of Fang Mansion, Chen Kan knocked politely. The person who opened the door this time was not his wife Zheng, but an honest and honest man dressed as a farmer.
When the concierge saw Chen Kan standing at the door with so many people, his eyes instantly showed fear.
But when he thought of his master's identity, his eyes instantly became confident again.
"Master, who are you looking for?"
Chen Kan said: "My name is Chen Kan, and I am Master Fang's student."
Hearing Chen Kan introduce himself to his family, the man was surprised and said: "You are Mr. Chen. My master has told me that if you come to see him, just go to the study directly."
"Teacher knows I'm coming?"
Chen Kan muttered a little, Fang Xiaoru's news channel was too powerful.
The man smiled naively and said, "I am the new concierge. You can just call me Lao Shen."
"OK!"
Seeing that Fang Xiaoru was finally no longer so frugal and started to invite concierges, Chen Kan was actually a little relieved for a while.
After telling Fang Xu and Zhang San to wait for him outside the door, Chen Kan walked to the study door alone, opened the door and walked in.
Fang Xiaoru seemed to have turned on the God's perspective. She raised her head and glanced at Chen Kan, and said calmly: "I thought it was time for you to come."
"Hehe, the teacher knows things like a god."
After flattering him a little, Chen Kan came and sat down opposite Fang Xiaoru. Seeing that his teacup was empty, he flatteringly picked up the teapot and refilled it for him.
Then, he poured himself another glass.
"I told you that the White Lotus Sect is difficult to deal with!"
Fang Xiaoru took the tea offered by Chen Kan, stroked his beard and squinted.
Chen Kanshen frowned and said: "Yes, the student knows his mistake. It is the student who underestimated the heroes of the world. However, it is not that the student has gained nothing. The student has sent people to wait and see. If they dare to dump the body tonight, the student will follow the clues. …”
Hearing that Chen Kan was still quibbling, Fang Xiaoru didn't criticize him and just sipped the tea leisurely.
As he spoke, Chen Kan's voice became smaller and smaller.
These clues may sound like clues, but in fact they are most likely loopholes deliberately left by the White Lotus Sect.
This is also the reason why Xu Yuan and Chen Kan did not go to the Earth Temple today. What they can think of, others can also think of.
Moreover, this was not the first time that Chen Kan and the so-called Buddhist disciple had fought each other. If he could be caught out so easily, Chen Kan would not come to Fang Xiaoru for help.
Seeing that Chen Kan had stopped talking, Fang Xiaoru put down the tea cup and said calmly: "Go on, keep talking."
Chen Kan sighed dejectedly and said, "Please ask the teacher to point out a direction for the students."
Fang Xiaoru was happy, pointed at Chen Kan and said with a smile: "Why, didn't you find a clue?"
Chen Kan rolled his eyes and said: "The student has shown his cards. The student is blind now. He knows that the man has arrived in the capital, but he can't find him. He still asks the teacher for help."
Hearing that Chen Kan finally stopped speaking harshly, Fang Xiaoru's expression softened.
He glanced at the tea cup, and Chen Kan refilled it for him very discerningly.
Fang Xiaoru took a sip of tea, squinted his eyes and said solemnly: "The White Lotus Sect is not easy to eradicate, otherwise the late emperor would not have let it go for so long."
"Uh-huh!"
Chen Kan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Fang Xiaoru said angrily: "When the late emperor was in power, he asked Sheng Yong and Ping Bao'er to lead troops to annihilate the White Lotus Sect strongholds in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. In addition, I asked people to sort out some things. I should be able to put them together in a few days. I'll have someone deliver it to you when the time comes."
Chen Kan was overjoyed and raised his hand to Fang Xiaoru: "Thank you very much, teacher. I will go find General Shanda now."
Seeing that Chen Kan didn't want to stay for a second longer, Fang Xiaoru didn't mind either.
"Close the door for me!"
After scolding, Fang Xiaoru couldn't help but smile.
This student's fiery personality really resembles his father's.
Meeting up with his personal guards, Chen Kan led his men toward the Licheng Hou Mansion in a mighty manner.
Sheng Yong was one of the few remaining old generals from the Hongwu Dynasty, and was also one of Zhu Di's biggest opponents during the Fengtian Jingnan period.
And Chen Kan remembered that Sheng Yong in history probably wouldn't live long.
Next year he will be falsely accused by Jin Yiwei, impeached by the cruel official Chen Ying, and then commit suicide at home.
It seems that when the time comes, I will have to take action to save his dog's life, as well as Ping An Ping'er.
The deaths of these two people are historically related to Jin Yiwei and Chen Ying.
Marquis of Licheng, this title was bestowed by Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen. Zhu Di never took it back after he came to power. I don't know whether he forgot it or did it on purpose.
However, since Sheng Yong took refuge with Zhu Di, he has been idle at home. Sheng Yong is not favored by Zhu Di. This is an indisputable fact.
