The Oiran Case Chapter 21: Cheap Daddy Gets Involved in a Murder Case
Xiaoxiang Tower.
In the rooftop box of the largest brothel in the capital, some officials were drinking and enjoying themselves.
The birds sang and the swallows danced, the harp and the harp sang harmoniously, and Shen Wuhe (Shen Yingying's 21st century cheap father) was so happy that he couldn't find his way to the left and the right.
"Come on, come on, Shen Yushi, let me toast you." An official stood up, walked to Shen Wuhe, and respectfully picked up a glass of wine.
Shen Wuhe waved his hand quickly, "Oh, Chen Shangshu, you are flattering me. You are the third-rank Minister of the Ministry of War. How can you give me a toast from the third-rank right capital censor?"
As he said this, he wanted to stand up, but was stopped by the Minister of War.
"I don't like hearing what Shen Yushi said anymore. Nowadays, the public opinion for Your Highness to be the crown prince is getting higher and higher. As the famous person next to Your Highness, Shen Yushi really makes us other people jealous!"
Shen Wuhe laughed and did not answer directly.
Xiao He succeeds and Xiao He fails. He works under the second prince Gu Xingchen. If the second prince becomes the crown prince in the future, or even the future emperor, then he, Shen Wuhe, will be promoted.
But if the second prince fails to seize the rightful son, he will follow the second prince and fall as high as he flies!
Seeing that no one was speaking, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry opened his mouth and said, "Who in the world doesn't know that the most important and most beloved departments of our Daikin are the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple, plus the Supervisory Department of Hundred Officials In the eyes of the Holy Emperor, your status as the censor of the right capital is much higher than ours."
"Yes, yes, I, the Minister of Rites, should also pay a toast to Yushi Shen."
When Shen Wuhe saw everyone flattering him so much, he also laughed, "I drink, I drink. Lord ministers call the villain to drink. How can the villain not dare to drink?"
Everyone said something to each other, fawning over each other, and the scene was very harmonious.
After a while, Chen Shangshu remembered something, "By the way, Censor. I have prepared a big gift today. You will definitely like it very much."
As soon as he heard about the "big gift", Shen Wuhe's eyes lit up, "Oh, it's not a gift, please give me some advice from Chen Shangshu."
"Oiran."
"Oiran?"
"That's right! It's Liu Rushi, the number one courtesan in the capital! Let her stay with us for the night."
Shen Wuhe had heard a little about the number one courtesan in the capital.
It is said that her talents are the highest in the country, she is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her appearance is also the most beautiful in the world.
And it has always been about showing off one's skills but not one's body.
"I heard that this oiran is not easy to get an appointment with. How can I bother you, sir?"
"It's really hard to make an appointment, but it doesn't matter, old man, I really got it done today." Chen Shangshu said, his words full of pride.
A night with an oiran can be worth a thousand pieces of gold. To buy her for a night, you not only have to spend money, but also your status and status.
Five of the six ministers of the third rank came, plus a censor of the right capital from the third rank of the Duchayuan under the current prince.
It can be said that with their configuration, let alone the Xiaoxiang Tower! They have a lot of say in the imperial court!
Today happened to be the first night of Liu Rushi's auction. Chen Shangshu paid for it and sold his face, and finally succeeded in winning it!
After a while, Chen Shangshu remembered something and muttered to himself, "It's strange, why hasn't the oiran come yet?"
The officials waited all night in Xiaoxiang Tower but did not wait for the oiran Liu Rushi to appear. On the second day, because there was no morning meeting, they each slept in their own houses until the afternoon.
They waited until sunset before they were willing to get up. As a result, it was okay if they couldn't afford it. They could still linger in the sweet dreams of the lingering fragrance of wine, but they all faced huge bad news!
"Xichang was ordered to search the Office of the Minister of Libu!"
"Xichang was ordered to search the House of the Minister of Household Affairs!"
…
"Xichang was ordered to search the Imperial Censor's Mansion in the Right Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate!"
Shen Wuhe was still defecating in the latrine when he heard the sharp shouting from Xichang's father-in-law.
Worried that some confidential documents from the Metropolitan Procuratorate would be directly confiscated by the West Factory, he was so anxious that he had to cut off his shit, wipe his butt, and hurried to the main hall to greet him.
"Oh, what kind of wind has brought you all here?"
"Oh, father-in-law! You can't take this thing! This involves secret documents in our courtyard. Only the Second Prince and Your Majesty are qualified to view it!"
"Ouch! Don't touch this! This is temporarily left with me by His Highness! This is His Highness's personal belongings!"
"This and this won't work either. This is my wife's relic! I hope my father-in-law will be more accommodating!"
All in all, the situation was very tense.
A lot of things were saved, but not a lot of things were saved.
After the search in the West Factory was completed, Shen Wuhe was about to send the father-in-law out. But two eunuchs came up and cuffed him with a few "clicks"!
One operation stunned Shen Wuhe.
"Father! What does this mean?"
"Master Shen, I forgive you. The Sa family is also following the rules. Now, as a suspect in Liu Rushi's murder case, I will take you back to the East and West Factory for questioning."
"Liu Rushi? Courtesan Liu Rushi? I have never seen her before!"
"Your Majesty, you are such a noble person. You forget things. Last night, your Majesty, Chen Shangshu and others bought Liu Rushi's first night, and planned to let Liu Rushi serve you. But when you turned around, Liu Rushi's head was beheaded. The time before and after was only a stick of incense. Time, do you dare to say that you really have nothing to do with this matter?"
"I really have nothing to do with this matter! Liu Rushi didn't come last night!"
"The madam and the maid in Xiaoxiang Tower both confirmed that Liu Rushi indeed entered the private room of the Xijiang Yueding Pavilion where you were that day. After entering, he disappeared. You should go to the Sajia Stuff Factory anyway."
Shen Wuhe suddenly felt that one was bigger than the other, "Where are the other ministers? They also went to Dongchang?"
"How can each department be without an owner for a day? They are still staying in their respective ministers' houses, but other ministers said that the gathering at Xiaoxiang Tower yesterday was to celebrate your birthday, Shen Yushi, and the oiran was all in your name I bought it. It should be enough for you to take a trip to the West Factory."
"..."
What do you mean by being a friend? This is it! You actually pushed him out at the critical moment! What a careless friend!
After a while, Shen Wuhe said again, "Eunuch, I am also the censor of the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and a subordinate of the second prince. Do you need to ask His Highness for his opinion if you want to arrest me and go to Xichang?"
"After asking, His Highness said, please do it!"
Shen Wuhe was stunned by one sentence.
What is your second highness thinking now? After all, Lao Shen is also the second-in-command of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Your Highness is really not afraid that Lao Shen is in the East Factory and can't stand the torture and will throw out everything at once?
Or does His Highness have an ulterior motive for letting me go to Dongchang? Alas! I can’t figure it out! I can’t figure it out!
In ancient times, working for people was troublesome! Especially working for the shady second prince who said half of his words! It was even more difficult!
Suddenly, a name flashed in Shen Wuhe's mind.
"Eunuch! Yun Feiyan of Zhaoxuefang is my newly recognized adopted daughter. Please ask my father-in-law to send someone to Zhaoxuefang to send a message to let Feiyan know about it."
Let Feiyan come quickly to save his 21st century biological father!
After Shen Wuhe finished speaking, he stuck his butt out and signaled to the factory owner that he had some jewelry in his trouser pocket, which he could use as reward money.
They are all veterans who have been in officialdom for a long time. How could they not know the meaning of Shen Wuhe's action?
I saw Mr. Xichang patting Shen Wuhe's buttocks and then pressing down his raised buttocks.
"Master Shen, we are all old acquaintances. There is no need to engage in such nonsense. If you want to find Detective Yun Xuan, you should follow the Sa family to Dongchang."
"Detective Yunxuan, she happens to be at the Governor's Mansion of Dongchang."
Shen Wuhe was dumbfounded again when he heard this.
What's going on recently! Everyone is having so much fun, why can't he understand it more and more!
…
The Governor's Mansion of Dongchang.
After all, the morgue space contains the bodies of many victims. The space is small and the environment is special.
Shen Yingying simply moved the execution venue to the courtyard of the Governor's Mansion. Ziyao and Yun Feiyan moved tables and set up the venue and placed items. The eunuchs in the East and West Factory were all curious. Unknowingly, , the yard was already filled with crowds of people watching.
At that time, Gu Yangjing was tied to a wooden chair, and several charms were attached to his body. Golden Boy Zi Yao was still holding on to the rope, for fear that the rope would fall off when the time came to perform the spell.
In the past, the Dongxi Factory had already put the two of them in a dungeon on the charge of "committing treason and immorality".
But in the past day, they did see how mysterious Shen Yingying was.
It’s still the same sentence: The master’s life is more important. Trust her again!
Therefore, instead of stopping them, everyone stopped and watched.
No one knew what Shen Yingying did. They only knew that Detective Yun Xuan was holding a magical weapon and mumbling something, and he was shaking his fists and drawing swords in the courtyard, as if he was really fighting with people.
The originally sunny sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder under Shen Yingying's spell.
"boom--"
"boom--"
Every time he waved, there was a burst of thunder. The day was like night, and the night was illuminated by dazzling lightning.
"The Xuanzong of heaven and earth, the root of ten thousand Qi, has been cultivated for hundreds of millions of kalpas, and I have proved my magical powers. Within and outside the three realms, only Tao is the most respected..."
"Thousands of gods pay homage to thunder, ghosts and demons are frightened, and spirits are carried away. There are thunderbolts within. The god of thunder is hidden, the wisdom of the cave is clear, the five energies are soaring, the golden light appears quickly, and the real person is protected..."
"Hurry as the law dictates!"
"burn!"
Hundreds of talismans were fired in unison, and when the peach wood sword was swung forward, they all spontaneously ignited.
For a long time, the dark clouds turned into rain and poured down.
"rustle--"
Gu Yangjing frowned and slowly opened his eyes. He didn't know what happened. He just felt that he had had a long dream. After waking up from the dream, the heaviness in his body and bones became much lighter.
"Your Highness!"
Before he could fully open his eyes and take a clear look at his surroundings, a girl wearing an elegant skirt embroidered with apricot orchid patterns blocked his view.
"How do you feel, Your Highness?" Shen Yingying said as she untied the rope that bound Gu Yangjing's body.
She held an umbrella to protect him from the rain.
Although the rain was pouring, it gradually became lighter.
But Gu Yangjing always felt like something was beating on him in his heart.
After a while, he pursed his lips and stood up.
When she got up, the rain stopped, so Shen Yingying put the umbrella and the rope into a sack.
Although she moved very quickly, Gu Yangjing still recognized the hemp rope. It was used to tie hairy crabs or sow trotters in the factory. She probably found it randomly in the back kitchen.
Does this mean he is a hairy crab or a sow's trotter?
…
However, even though Gu Yangjing looks fierce, it does not mean that he has a vicious heart. As Dongxi Chang always emphasizes, although their governor has a bad temper, he has a good heart and knows right from wrong.
Now I do seem to feel a little better. There is really no reason to find trouble with this mysterious detective anymore.
Gu Yangjing coughed twice and said, "You won't see the effect in one or two days. Let's talk about it in a few days."
Shen Yingying chuckled and did not answer.
Just pretend! I spent more than half a month to destroy more than half of the ghosts in you, how could I not feel much! Gu Yangjing now probably feels that he can walk like flying and can eat seven bowls of rice a day!
Shen Yingying had already guessed that Gu Yangjing woke up without saying thanks or acknowledging Shen Yingying's great mystical skills. But what she didn't guess was that in the fifth prince's governor's palace, she could still hear The cry of his cheap father who worked hard for the second prince.
"Yingying! My poor daughter! I can't help you! I can't leave with you for the rest of my life!" This chapter has been completed!
