Zhang Xuan picked up the things Ye Zhuqing put down on the table, looked through them and said, "Don't ask. He has such a character. These brothel girls really don't know what is true or false in their mouths. It's so adulterated that it makes people angry.
.”
It turned out that Zhou and Ye also used methods to open the mouths of the girls in the brothel who were shut up in the Yamen, but what these girls said did not match up at all.
The situation is no different from Ji Xuan's situation.
If these girls had to verify everything they said, the workload would be too great for them.
Because what these brothel girls say is not consistent. The mother-in-law talks about the mother-in-law, and the father-in-law talks about the father-in-law. They are all very reasonable and well-founded. No one wants to lie.
Just like the political paper for liberal arts students, all four options seem correct, but none of them seem to be correct.
"Let's go to Master Qin." Zhang Xuan rolled up two files and said.
Everyone sighed and headed towards the Bazi Hutong. Ye Zhuqing stamped her feet and followed them.
As soon as I entered the alley, I saw many people wearing neither blue nor green clothes, coming and going, moving things from the original house to the opposite house.
These people coming and going moved the fastest, but they didn't make much noise, and they were in an orderly manner.
Ji Xuan and others glanced at the original house, then followed the others into the new house opposite.
There are two courtyards nested together. The middle wall has been cut out. Bai Xi is talking to a mason about something.
Doctor Lu and the medicine boy were studying herbal medicine in the back yard.
Entering through the gate, you can actually see everything in the courtyard after breaking it open.
"Mr. Bai, there is a lot of smoke and fire here, and we are disturbing you." Zhang Xuan said, having already entered the courtyard ahead of everyone else, and strode up to Bai Xi.
Bai Xi looked at the people and frowned and said, "Aren't you all here already? I don't know who our master is telling us to stay behind closed doors, whether it's people from the yamen or doctors.
I really can’t even drive him away.”
"Look what Mr. Bai said. Of course we know what he told us, but how can we not meet guests when we move to a new house?" Zhang Xuan smiled without any embarrassment at all.
He didn't know that Tan Sihan was poisoned, but he still had to bite the bullet.
Otherwise, there is nothing you can do. Relying on this big tree can save you a lot of trouble.
Bai Xi had no choice but to turn back to the mason and said: "You can't make any sound, you can do as much as you say. I'll finish my work and leave before night, do you hear me?"
"But...you haven't given me any money yet?"
"Go to Lintong Silver Shop and tell me that you are the ones who will help Mr. Tan settle down."
The mason agreed and gave instructions to the Liba people.
"Isn't this wall finished? What else is left to do?" Ji Xuan asked.
"The installation of cells, torture instruments, etc. will have to be changed later. How can we be careless in the place where our master lives?" Bai Xi said.
It was at this time that another person came in through the door, also from Qin Sihan. He bowed his hands respectfully to Bai Xi and said, "Brother Bai, the imperial doctors will arrive at dusk. You see..."
Bai Xi didn't blink an eye: "Let's create some trouble for them and ask them to come back to the city after noon tomorrow. Otherwise, tell them to live in the suburbs. There is no place for them to live in Fanzhizhou Prefecture."
"Yes, Brother Bo. There are a few more things I would like you to tell me, one..."
That person should step down.
"You are your master's old man. You know how to arrange everything. You are responsible for everything outside." Bai Xi interrupted and waved his hand.
The man said yes and glanced at the people in the yard.
Almost all the people in the yard followed out immediately. Only five were left, and only one was left in front of the main house, while the rest retreated.
Bai Xi then turned around and looked at the people: "Let's talk about it and leave after you finish talking."
"I……"
"Our master won't see guests today. If you have anything to do, you can tell me." Bai Xi interrupted directly.
After saying that, he led several people into the flower hall and sat down, but no one took the main seat. As soon as they sat down, they were served tea.
It seemed that he really couldn't see anyone today. He felt strange, but he still said, "Can you please help me find the girls' entertainment records. I also want to get to know Mr. Guo."
"Master Guo?" Bai Xi seemed to be ready, picked up a roll of paper from the shelf in the living room and gave it to Ji Xuan.
"Guo Wenshi."
"Xu Yichen's son-in-law?"
Ji Xuan nodded.
"One thing in front of you and another behind the scenes, but the emotion is very deep." Bai Xi didn't ask Ji Xuan what he was doing, he just said.
The reason why Ji Xuan asked this was because she wanted to know about the dagger.
Li Kuyuan really has to make people suspicious, why did his dagger appear in the flower house?
Was the murderer misleading them, or was it negligence on the part of the murderer?
"Excuse me, Mr. Bai, please help us say hello to Mr. Qin." Seeing that Ji Xuan did not continue speaking, Zhang Xuan looked at him and the latter nodded. He stood up and said to Bai Xi.
After Bai Xi nodded, everyone left and he followed him out into the main room, "Master." He knelt down in front of the bed and said.
In the house, there is the study room first, the bedroom at the back, and the bathing area further inside. There is also a storage room. The four rooms are integrated into one, and they are integrated. There are several doors, and there is even a shelf behind one door.
Several eagles.
Bai Xi kept his promise and built a kang for Qin Sihan in the house, which was a full two meters long, but the workmanship was not very fine.
Qin Sihan lay down and said, "Sent them all away?"
"Yes, I am in a hurry at another time. I feel wronged. I have five of my subordinates to serve me. Do you think it's feasible?"
Qin Sihan pulled him up and pressed him on the bed, resting his thigh on his pillow and rubbing his knees with one hand: "Isn't this great? Five people? Are you raising ghosts? Such a big place."
"Don't you find it too crowded?" Bai Xi said weakly.
He said and covered Qin Sihan's hand so that he could not use his strength.
"Yes, I love spaciousness. That's how I say it to the outside world." Tan Sihan looked at him helplessly and doubtfully.
"I dare not trouble you." Bai Xi was talking about helping him rub his knees. He understood what Tan Sihan's eyes were asking.
"It's nothing. Let's keep our people in check, keep a low profile, and don't be a target for those people. Don't interfere with the affairs in the yamen. I have a feeling that something is going to happen."
Qin Sihan slowly sat up and looked at Bai Xi solemnly.
"Don't worry, my subordinates have taken care of everything."
"Well, I always feel at ease when you do things. No one has ever asked me if anyone in Beijing has said anything."
"Your Majesty, Your Highnesses, and several courtiers."
"No one asked about it at the Princess's Palace or the Prince Consort's Palace?"
Bai Xi shook his head.
"You really think that my son doesn't exist. Why do you have to give birth to me when you quarrel every day? Remind Your Majesty so that His Majesty will always remember his faults?"
Bai Xi did not answer.
"Is there anyone in the Yamen watching?"
"Bai Ze is here."
"We are keeping a close eye on both inside and outside. His Majesty is keeping Tong Ruoqi and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty under control. You are also accompanying them. Don't let our Highnesses know the secret."
"Yes, Master." Bai Xi took the order and went to the eagle stand behind the door, and started tinkering one by one.
Firstly, it was to spread the instructions given by Tan Sihan just now, and on the other hand, there were some things that needed him to deal with...
