Chapter 247 One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers
The funeral procession in the early morning was like a long dragon, heading north of the city. Paper money was scattered along the way, and mourning and music were singing. The monk chanting sutras beat the wooden fish, and walked in front of the procession while chanting sutras. Cheng Xiaochun, the daughter of the Manchu minister of Hube, was buried. There were hundreds of people in the team. The white-haired people sent the black-haired people away, which made passers-by sigh in admiration.
In the funeral procession there were three detectives from the Ministry of Punishment, Ai Hai, Gao Yaowun and the female jailer Di Gu. Of course, officials from the Ministry of Punishment were also among them. Wu Defu, wearing a seventh-grade official uniform, was walking among a group of officials.
Gao Yao Wuyun Zuo was puzzled as to why captain Li Guolou wanted her to bury the dead. The procession left the Anding Gate, the north gate of the city. The procession of more than a hundred people got on the carriage and headed for the cemetery ten miles away.
"Deputy Captain Ai, let me cry." Gao Yaowuyun couldn't help but vent his dissatisfaction.
"Gao Yao catches the head. Now you are fighting in a team. It is different from the past when you fought alone. You are a woman. You will cry louder on the grave later." Ai Hai has the air of a commander. No. Let your subordinates know why they came to mourn.
"Captain Gao Yao. Don't let Deputy Ai fool you. I have inside information. The red diamond has been found. Just take a look." Di Gu, the female prison guard, has inside information and won't listen to Ai Hai's nonsense. .
"Oh..." Gao Yaowun finally smiled. He had been pretending to cry all morning. Not to mention how uncomfortable it was. It turned out that Li Guolou asked her to participate in a major case and feel the atmosphere of solving the case. Gao Yaowun blinked. A pair of smart eyes looked at Ai Hai and pretended to be with her. I didn't know that she was the best at pretending.
Gao Yao Wuyun pretended to be bold and said in a rough voice: "Vice Captain Ai, you should have said it earlier. We'll see later. I cried so hard that the hired ladies didn't have as loud a voice as me. "
"Captain Gao Yao. How do you know? The ladies in front of me are hired." Ai Hai looked at Gao Yao Wuyun. The unusual girl that the captain likes. She has a bold temperament. I don't know what the connotation is. He wants to take the postgraduate entrance examination.
Gao Yao Wuyun glanced at her and said, "It's not like their daughter has so many tears. She looks terrible. Master Shangshu will not ask for such a thing."
The people on the carriage covered their mouths and snickered. Someone in a high-ranking official’s house is dead. It’s polite not to laugh.
Gao Yao Wuyun asked softly: "Ai Captou. Where is that priceless red diamond."
Ai Hai glared at the dark clouds. Nothing is so cheap. Being a detective must have meaning. This case now depends on him. The credit belongs to his team.
"The secret must not be leaked." Ai Hai took off his big hat, stroked his bald head, took out a handkerchief dipped in pepper water, and prepared to cry to Lord Shangshu.
"Hmph." Gao Yao Wuyun curled his lips. She would not do such a little trick in front of her. But Gao Yao Wuyun took out a small bottle and dipped a little potion on his finger so that no trace would be revealed. crying loudly.
"Hey." The female prison guard Di Gu now saw how big the gap was between her and the police officers. She made a decision before taking action. Ai Hai and Gao Yao Wuyun were well prepared for the funeral. They did their homework. Their perfect performance impressed the superiors. And she But he is inferior to others and can only waste time in prison.
Gao Yao Wuyun reluctantly poured the potion on Di Gu's finger. This was her trump card, but she wanted to give it to her companions for free.
Ai Hai said: "Don't be unhappy, you two. A meal of tofu rice at noon costs five taels of silver. It's worth it for the delicacies of mountains and seas." For the sake of five taels of silver, it's worth crying. Ai Hai cultivated feelings .You must show your best side to your superiors.
"Five taels of silver." Gao Yaowun, a countryman, has never had such a luxurious banquet. He couldn't help but screamed in a low voice. His mouth was filled with saliva and he smacked his mouth. The thoughts in his mind flew to the table.
"Are you two women? Just be careful and shut up." Ai Hai didn't want to talk to two bastards anymore. He asked him to lead two unfeminine women. The leader had sinister intentions.
The two women who were announcing the names of the dishes on the carriage shut up in embarrassment and followed orders.
Zuo Shangshu Cheng Kunyu is a Manchu nobleman. He has a family cemetery and a lush scenery behind the green mountains. The tall tombstones tell the world about his ancestors' great achievements.
Ai Hai stood in the middle of the mourners. He took off his hat and bowed in greeting. But his eyes looked at the crying suspect. A cold smile appeared on his face. No criminal could escape his hands. He was about to become famous.
Gao Yao Wuyun followed Ai Hai's gaze and looked at the group of women. Could it be that the thief who stole the red diamond was among this group of people.
The cemetery is dominated by this group of women. Their cries are the loudest. When the time comes to seal the soil, they want to jump into the cemetery. They still need someone to hold them.
Gao Yao Wuyun screamed at the top of his lungs. She wanted to gain a firm foothold in the Ministry of Justice. Her opening show was here. So many officers were watching her. Gao Yao Wuyun was a bit crazy and acted like crazy with the group of female relatives.
Men always have some restraint in this place. Funerals are women's world. Ai Hai moved to Wu Defu's side and whispered: "Mr. Governor, why are you here."
"Idiot. Who knows what will happen in the future. The Manchu people have their own ancestors to protect them. I am here on behalf of Mr. Bao." Wu Defu scolded his subordinates in a low voice. No one could hear them despite the sound of drums and music.
"Hehe. The governor still sees far. Little Li is far behind." Ai Hai said bad things about Li Guolou behind his back. This is the tradition of their group. They all can't understand that Li Guolou relied on family power and the money of a rich woman to rise to power. .People are so irritating. They even spend money to get a little wife. And Li Guolou is the one who gets her. This makes them deeply disgusted by what Li Guolou did.
"Let's not talk about this wicked man. He will die on a woman's belly sooner or later. Have you made arrangements?" Wu Defu looked at the people around him and glanced into the distance with his deep eyes.
"Don't worry. I'm no worse than Xiao Lizi." Ai Hai said boldly. Who had seen through the criminal's background? He had long forgotten.
"Hmm..." Wu Defu showed off his official power and left Ai Hai, who had no rank. He approached a group of senior Manchu officials. The water flowed downwards and people walked upwards. He is now a seventh-rank official. Now he is a seventh-rank official. When you climb up, you can wear flower feathers and hang beads. Things that you didn't dare to think about in the past. Now you can set up lofty dreams again.
Ai Hai looked at Wu Defu. He felt a little sad but didn't say anything. He was from Li Guolou's family. Wu Defu was unlucky and it didn't matter what happened to him. The most important thing is to have self-knowledge. What Wu Defu had done? How could he escape the ears of the police? . He knew everything. The matter would always be revealed to Bao Yiyi. Ai Hai also had selfish motives. He didn't tell Li Guolou, just waiting for Wu Defu to suffer misfortune. All the brothers were willing to follow Yao Cuo instead of following Wu Defu's orders. The eldest brother Yao Cuo, who was also a police officer, was even more loved by his subordinates. Wu Defu, who loved conspiracy and intrigue, was not mistreated by his subordinates.
Another shocking incident happened to the Tianzihao men. Li Guolou was completely unaware of it. The brothers kept it secret from him. But Li Guolou didn't care about the gang's affairs. The protection fee he received was a small amount, which was not as good as that of his elder brother Yao Cuo and others. The second brother Wu Defu. So his current focus is on his positive career. At this time, Li Guolou and Zhen Yuhuan were on their way to visit the boss Du.
Passing near the British Legation is the Chaoyang Project Development Zone. Except for the residential areas of foreigners, the rest of the area is full of old-fashioned residences. Most of them are where Manchu civilians live.
Zhen Yuhuan slapped the carriage and asked Uncle Dumb, the carriage driver, to stop the carriage. She wanted to take a look at this land. In the future, this place would be razed to the ground. Then, under the planning of her and Li Guolou, it would become her family's business.
Walking on the narrow street, Zhen Yuhuan sighed: "It would be great if now is the time when the Manchus enter the customs. We won't even pay relocation fees to these residents."
Li Guolou glanced at him and said, "Anita, are you crazy? These people are full of people."
"Hmph." Zhen Yuhuan snorted coldly: "The damn Manchus are all bastards and Han Chinese who joined the Eight Banners. How can there be authentic Manchus?"
Li Guolou touched his nose and smiled and said: "That's true. Most of them are hybrids. Now the Manchus are in power. They call themselves Manchus. When the Manchus fall, these people will immediately recognize their ancestors and return to their clan."
"Mike, it's good to have a good relationship with the higher-ups. Those things that are difficult for the Manchus to deal with. Niulu, Jingzhang, layer after layer. I can't even figure out the relationship between them." Zhen Yuhuan looked up the street. The Manchus walked proudly and swaying. They wisely got out of the way. There was no need to compete with the Manchu hooligans for a high ground.
The two Manchus got the advantage and behaved well. They turned around and whistled at Li Guolou and Zhen Yuhuan who were dressed in western clothes.
Li Guolou and Zhen Yuhuan seemed to have no feeling and continued to move forward. Li Guolou said with emotion: "Yes. Without support from the top, who dares to touch the Manchus. Their interests are inherent. Let the bosses go first. Just go ahead and let him feel better. Let's enjoy the results."
"Mike, don't be greedy for profit. Don't expose your background because of Du Yingying." Zhen Yuhuan looked at the villa complex in front of him. Du, the boss, has two residences there, which are residences for foreigners.
Li Guolou smiled casually and said: "Anita, people like you are willing to live with me. It's not because I'm a pretty boy. It's because you and I are the same kind of people. Boss Du is like a character in a chalk painting. He will be fooled by us. Wipe it off. In ten years this will be our world."
"What about Yelia?" Zhen Yuhuan knew who was most important in Li Guolou's heart and couldn't help but become jealous.
Li Guolou laughed dryly and said: "Anita, don't say such things on the street. Focus on becoming bigger and stronger. Only we know in our hearts how strong we are now. We need to go to the next level. Eat those fake foreign devils."
"Hey, Mike has some bad news for you. Hu Xueyan's "Fukang Bank" has been listed in Shanghai." Zhen Yuhuan was bewitched by Li Guolou. She also had a big enemy in the shopping mall, "Hu Xueyan".
"Oh." Li Guolou remained silent. Hu Xueyan also saw the good idea he had thought of. What should he do next? Li Guolou was in a heavy heart. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. He must speed up his pace and achieve great achievements as soon as possible.
"Jelia, you strong women must unite. I can only rely on you. No matter how rich my brothers and sisters are, they will never become mine. The enemies must be defeated one by one. First, those fake foreign devils, and then the boss Du "Let's put this giant beast like Hu Xueyan at the end." Li Guolou held it in for a long time to say this. People should be more realistic. Utopian illusions will always be shattered.
"Yeah." Zhen Yuhuan is ambitious and has focused on her career. There are few women in the backyard who are her rivals. As for Yelia, sooner or later she will squeeze Yelia out of Li Guolou's side.
Wanting Li Guolou to be violent and chaotic on the bed, Zhen Yuhuan said delicately: "Mike, we are your strong backers and will not hold you back."
"Hmm. Later, I'll give Big Brother Du a few cups of ecstasy soup and let him go." Li Guolou looked at Zhen Yuhuan insidiously. The two conspirators worked together to create a future.
"Ding dong." The doorbell rang. The clear and melodious sound was pleasing to the ear and contained hidden murderous intent. The boss Du personally greeted him. The two sides looked at each other and laughed. There was so much sincerity in that infectious laughter. Only the parties involved on both sides know in their hearts.
