He Wen stretched out his hand, took the waist badge in his hand, and looked at the pattern on it carefully.
An iron waist plate, two inches long, one inch wide, and half a finger thick. On one side are engraved three gold ingots, supplemented by cloud patterns. On one side are engraved three characters, Yuan He Tang. There are three protrusions at the bottom of the waist plate. .
After more than ten breaths, He Wen raised his head to meet Ye Qing's searching eyes and said solemnly:
"Yuanhetang occupies the bank business in the four northern states of Shenqi. Secretly, it is one of the four major forces in the world of Shenqi."
"As a bank, you must have a group of good people under your command. They are poor in culture and rich in military, you know."
Ye Qing nodded, his eyes showing concern as he said:
"Yuanhetang is rooted in the four northern states. I heard someone say before that Shenqi suppressed Jianghu severely. Behind it, there must be a wealthy family, right?"
He Wen, who gave Ye Qing a thumbs up, looked at the belt filled with hidden weapon flying needles and said:
"Yes, but no one knows which clan is behind Yuanhetang."
"The person carrying a concealed weapon today must be a member of the Jianghu. God has inspired the Eight Great Cities to prohibit the entry of the Jianghu."
"If you want to enter the city, you must be guaranteed by a dignitary, and it must be recorded in the government office. You must also remove all weapons and cannot walk around at will. If you hurt someone while walking around, no matter whether it is justified or not, the guarantor will suffer the same consequences. Punishment.”
"This person will definitely be searched when he enters Huaiyang. The fact that he has a hidden weapon with him is the foundation of Yuanhetang."
Then, he pointed to the other side of Wang Liu's subordinate official badge, touched the human skin mask, frowned and said:
"Yuanhetang is very powerful in the north. In the south, we just have face. We definitely don't dare to act so arrogantly."
"Furthermore, I heard from Aweng that the human skin mask is made with exquisite techniques and the finished product is not easy, and few people can make it."
"For example, if this human skin mask looks exactly like Wang Liu, if Wang Liu's skin is taken alive and concocted, it may only take more than a month, and the death time will be doubled."
"If it were not Wang Liu's own human skin, it would take longer to make it look like Wang Liu, and it would take more time to get along with him day and night to make it look like him."
"This man wears a human skin mask and is not afraid of the rain. I think this human skin mask is more complicated and takes longer to make."
"Wang Liu's human skin mask, Wang Liu's subordinate official waist badge."
"Brother Ye, you just talked to this person, but it seems that he is the same person as Wang Liu you had contact with before?"
The rain was so heavy just now that He Wen hid his figure and didn't even hear what Ye Qing was talking to that person.
Just relying on the Chaotian Palace Purple Cauldron case, the trust between the two was born, plus Chen Yuming's trust in Ye Qing.
Only then after seeing Ye Qing's gesture did he decisively assassinate him.
Therefore, after He Wen took action just now, he did not touch the body or explore the identity of the person from Yuanhe Hall.
It was the trust in Ye Qing.
On the way back, the two didn't talk.
Ye Qing told what this person said about Wang Liu being knocked unconscious in the government office, concealed the matter about Zhang Xiuran, and continued:
"According to what you said, Wang Liu's human skin mask must have been prepared by this person early, and his voice is exactly the same as Wang Liuyi's. If it weren't for the flaw in what he said before, I definitely wouldn't have noticed anything strange about him."
"He said that Wang Liu was knocked unconscious, and even stole his clothes and did what Li Daitao did."
"I think I will use Wang Liu's identity to do something after I come here."
"However, how can a person who acts so recklessly be entrusted with such an important task?"
The two teenagers frowned.
After a few breaths, He Wen analyzed:
"Wang Liugang became a subordinate in the torture chamber not long ago. Before that, he was a jailer."
"This mask should be prepared for Huaiyang Prison."
He Wen paused, not knowing that this person came to Ye Qing for Zhang Xiuran.
Thinking that the Zijin Cauldron was found last night, the remnants of the previous dynasty of Chaotian Palace escaped without a trace.
There must be an undercurrent surging in Huaiyang City now, and the time when this person appeared was too strange.
He suspected:
"Now this person suddenly appeared on the second day after we found the Zijin Cauldron."
"Tell me, will there be any contact during this period?"
"Or do you just want to cause some trouble in the prison?"
Ye Qing frowned, even though the two were close friends now, they were worthy of trust.
But Zhang Xiuran's family affairs are too private and cannot be disclosed to outsiders without Zhang Xiuran's permission.
Seeing He Wen's frowning face, there was no color in it due to the injury.
He pursed his lower lip and said:
"This man is looking for me because of someone I know."
"Zijin Ding was not mentioned, but he prepared Wang Liu's human skin mask in advance."
"There must be something planned in the government office."
"You're seriously injured, so don't think about it for the time being. It's important to recuperate."
"The prefect will definitely question us when he comes back after checking Chaotian Palace."
"At that time, tell him these things again."
After saying that, he saw that He Wen was still frowning, looking like he wanted to understand, and said with a smile:
"Brother He, let's take the imperial salary and worry about your affairs."
"But if you are seriously injured, you have to take good care of yourself. Otherwise, your body and bones will not be able to bear it and you will burp."
"Not to mention getting promoted and getting rich, the gold and silver we brought back from Chaotian Palace have not been spent."
Upon hearing this, He Wen's expression brightened instantly, the corners of his mouth raised, he rubbed his fingers and said:
"Brother Ye, you are still transparent."
"With that gold ingot, I will have enough money to go to Zuixiang Pavilion for fun."
Gudong!
The extremely clear sound of swallowing saliva appeared in the front hall of the medical center.
As a young man Huaichun, what he thought of was not some pretty girl, but all the ladies, but the Zuixiang Pavilion in Fireworks Willow Alley.
This made Ye Qing laugh dumbly.
I randomly thought that the name of He Wen's masterpiece was famous all over Yangzhou and even Jinling.
He has solved countless cases and should have received a lot of silver rewards.
Why don't you have money to go to Zuixiang Pavilion?
Even if he has no money, there must be a lot of people in Huaiyang City who are willing to invite him to Zuixiang Pavilion to live a life of luxury.
He Wen noticed Ye Qing's confusion and curled his lips depressedly:
"I, Aweng, am afraid that I will be a bad learner."
"I asked the magistrate specifically to give me my salary. All the rewards and other things were given to Ah Weng."
"By the way, the prefect is also worried that I will be led astray by someone with malicious intentions, so he has informed the dignitaries in Huaiyang City."
"He said it's okay to treat me to dinner and drinks, but those people are not allowed to take me to Pinglefang, and they are not allowed to ask girls to drink wine with me in private. If anyone doesn't listen, the prefect will have a good chat with them."
"Now that Aweng is not in Huaiyang, I also have money and this human skin mask. I must sneak in."
Ye Qing, who had a weird expression, couldn't help but laugh heartily when he saw the 'much loved' He Wen looking heartbroken yet solemn.
Hahahahaha~
The laughter was so harsh that He Wen gritted his teeth and rubbed his teeth, and said angrily:
"I'm not one of those dissolute dandy scum."
"I'm sixteen, I know how to behave, and I won't mess around."
"They are like this. Others think that I have no determination, that I am intoxicated with beauty and can't help myself. I am not of much use."
“Isn’t this just making others laugh in vain!”
"Those scholars from poor families went there, but they never lingered in Pingle. Why can't I go?"
Ye Qing wiped some tears that appeared in the corner of his eyes, took a deep breath to calm down, and raised the corner of his mouth:
"If you just go and take a look and feel the atmosphere, leave it to me."
Hopeful congratulations instantly appeared in Mingliang's eyes, and he asked in disbelief:
"Really? Can you really take me to Pinglefang Zuixiang Pavilion?"
Ye Qing held his head high and said confidently:
"Don't forget, those people in Pinglefang call me the strongest gunman in Pinglefang."
"We can take you in and play without spending a penny."
Then, he blinked and said:
"Forget it about the human skin mask. I have a way to make you, Aweng, and the magistrate willingly let you follow me to Pinglefang."
Hiss~
He Wen gasped.
Without saying a word, he stared at Ye Qing with twinkling eyes and a sincere expression, and raised his hands to Ye Qing and said loudly:
"My sworn brother, Ye Qing, is here. My sworn brother, He Wen, will start today and will look after you."
"If you ask me to go east, I will never go west. If you ask me to go south, I will never go north."
"Today, my sworn brother is injured. When my sworn brother and I recover from my injury, you and I will bathe, burn incense, and worship before God."
