C8 Phoenix Returning to the Brothel
"The phoenix returns to the tower?" In the east, Zhong Yue was extremely excited. He thought to himself: Isn't the head of the Qin Huai River's Hundred Flowers Association, Han Yancui, a phoenix returning to its home? Could it be that a hall was involved in the theft of Iron Vouchers? Seeing the light in a room on the west side of the third floor, Dongfang Zhongyue was determined to investigate.
He made a half circle to the side and approached Feng Hun. He lightly jumped up to the second floor with the tip of his foot and once again jumped up to the third floor with his arms spread wide. Dongfang Zhongyu quietly came to the window of the light room on the west side and listened for any sounds coming from inside. He thought to himself: Why is it that no one speaks when someone has entered and the lights are on? Could it be that she was like a servant of the Divine Arm Workshop?
There was no sound for a long time, and in the middle of the east the finger of Chung-chung-chung-chung-chueh spat and dug a small hole in the corner of the window. If one looked closely, one would be able to see clearly the bright lights in the room, the bed, and the furniture. However, one could not see anyone! Could this be a suite with a room inside?
Dongfang Zhongyue tried to hold up the window, but fortunately it didn't go in, so he opened the window and quietly entered the room.
There was only one door in the room, and it was shut tight. He took a few steps toward the door, then stopped, because the candlestick was behind him. Dongfang Zhongyue turned around and blew out the candle before he quietly walked to the door. Luckily, there was a light on the other side of the door, so it was hard to notice that the light had gone out.
Faintly, from the other side of the door, someone was talking, and from the east they were listening more and more closely, as if they were two women. A woman asked, "Mother Xue, what's the matter?" Another older woman answered, "It's nothing. Big Brother Qian came to find Ji Yaohua. The follower in your room almost had a misunderstanding."
"Oh." The woman from before chuckled. "The one in my room is very timid. I'm scared. Haha …" "It can't be that bad, right?" "It's real …" The two women whispered something and laughed together. The young woman suddenly said, "Mother Xue, I have to go back to my room..." Yo? Why is the light out? "
The woman said she wanted to go back to her room, but the footsteps had already reached the door.
The door was on the east side, the window on the west, and it was too late for Dongfang Zhongyu to get out of the window again. Just as the door was about to open, Dongfang Zhongyue stomped on the floor and slid flat under the bed.
After closing the door, the woman asked, "Sir Zhu, why did you extinguish the light?" The room was dark, and she did not notice the swinging curtains. Dongfang Zhongyu was startled when he heard this, thinking: Is there anyone else in the room? "Why didn't I see it?
While she was still confused, the woman had already walked over to the bed. "Young Master Zhu …" Young Master Zhu … Where was he? Hi... "He couldn't have jumped out of the window in fright, right?" It was only then that she noticed the open window.
The more she listened, the more confused she felt. It was obvious that there was someone else in the room, but … No one jumped out of the window, but a person jumped in. Where did that person go? In the East, Zhong Yue had a strange feeling. His sixth sense told him that he was in danger, but he didn't know where the danger came from …
At this time, the woman quickly walked to the window and said to herself, "No …" It's impossible for him to get down from here with his fat body. The footsteps moved to the center of the room again, and with a clatter of flint a light shone under the curtains of the bed.
At that moment, Dongfang was even more astonished, because he saw another person under the bed, a white and fat man. Dongfang Zhongyu's first reaction was to reach out his hand to cover the man's mouth. Actually, there was no need, because the fat white man was covering his own mouth while the other one was covering his.
Dongfang Zhongyu took his hand away and gestured for him to be quiet. For a moment, the two of them looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering who the other was. Why hide under the bed?
The woman took the candlestick and looked around the room. After walking around the room, she still couldn't find anyone. She finally arrived at the bedside and asked, "Sir Zhu, you can't be under the bed, right?"
Although this Fatty Bai saw him, he didn't need to care. After all, they were in the same situation, and both of them were in the same situation. Moreover, he was even more embarrassed than himself when he was naked! However, if others were to find out that he was hiding under the bed of a brothel girl, it would be too embarrassing!
The candlelight on the curtains of the bed was lifted to illuminate the room, and soon after, a gorgeous woman's face appeared. Dongfang Zhong Yu didn't wait to see the other party's face, and threw out a punch, causing the woman to groan and fall to the ground.
Dongfang Zhongyue took away the candlestick first, so as not to burn her, he lightly pushed his palm forward, threw a blanket under the bed, and said in a low voice: "Come out, man."
After a long while, the fat white man finally crawled out of the cave. It was only now that Dongfang Zhongyu realized that he was no ordinary fat; his arms were as thick as his legs, his legs were as thick as his waist, and his chest, stomach, and back were all covered in fat. Dongfang Zhongyue was quite puzzled and curious, and he asked: "Who are you? Why are you hiding under the bed when you came to visit the brothel? "
The fat man glanced at him but didn't say anything. He went to the bed and took off his clothes to put on his clothes. Dongfang Zhongyue was a knowledgeable man. When he saw that his robe was made of lake silk, his robe was made of Shu Sai, and the hook was carved from jade and had a dragon head, he couldn't help but say, "You are Zhu Gaochi!"
"Ah?!" Fatty Bai turned around in shock. "How do you know her …" Halfway through his words, he hurriedly changed his words, "I'm not, you have the wrong person!" Seeing his expression, Dongfang Zhongyue knew he guessed right. He laughed and said: "I've long heard that you have this hobby. With your body alone, you shouldn't be able to find another one, right? Heh heh … Crown Prince, you are too bold to play brothel, aren't you? You were afraid of being seen, so you hid under the bed? "
"Shh …" Zhu Gaochi's chubby face became even paler. A layer of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead. "You …" "Tell me, do you want an official or do you want money?" Crown Prince's weakness was something to be reckoned with. With an evil smile, Dongfang Zhongyue rolled his eyes and said, "I don't need an official nor money."
"This …?" Zhu Gaochi blinked his small round glasses as his mind raced. Whether it was for money or for important officials, this kind of person who had no desires was the easiest to deal with. He asked in alarm, "What do you want?"
"Hehe …" I will not tell Censor about this, so don't worry, Crown Prince! " Dongfang Jingyue smiled and said: "Maybe one day I will come to you for help. Don't pretend that you don't know me, I'm called Dongfang Zhongyue, it's the Divine Arm Workshop... "Huh?"
Dongfang Yu suddenly realized that the woman lying on the ground was Hua Kui and the smile on his face immediately disappeared. This woman was most likely Qi Chuyan, who was engaged to him, to actually be … I was slept in by this damn fatty!
Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but shiver as he saw Luo Yuan's cold face and the fierceness in his eyes. Eastern, I promise you … "No matter what you ask of me, I agree to it …"
The more Dongfang Zhongzhong suppressed his anger, the more he felt it. After all, even though Han Yancui was a professional in this field, she couldn't blame Zhu Gaochi. Furthermore, she couldn't confirm Han Yancui's identity. Dongfang Zhongyue was quite rational when it came to doing things, "Okay, just remember what you said today. Scram!" Dongfang Zhongyu ignored him. He picked up Han Yancui and gently put her on the bed. Then, he left the same path …
He didn't know if the man in black was still in the building, so he changed his mind: it didn't matter whether he was there or not. His mother Xue said that person's surname was Qian, so it would be easy to find out once they returned to the Cao family.
However, there was one thing that confused him. That Qian guy went to Feng HuiLou to find a girl called Ji Yaohua. Could she be related to stealing Iron Vouchers?
Dongfang Zhongyue returned to the Mansion of the State of Cao and asked Lei Mingsheng if the man in black had come back. Lei Mingsheng was a bit surprised, "No, I didn't. That's the only person who went out all night. No one else came in or out. Young Master Dongfang, you lost your Qing Gong just like that? "
"I didn't lose it, but it was a bit of a loss." "That person's surname is Qian. He went to find a girl called Ji Yaohua. Send someone to keep an eye on him and see who can find Ji Yaohua."
Lei Mingsheng took orders to assign men and then entered the Mansion of the State of Cao with Dongfang Zhongyu. When he saw what Li Jinglong had said, the latter frowned, "I don't think there's anyone with the surname Qian in my house?" Lei Mingsheng said, "Could someone have hidden their surname?"
Li Jinglong shook his head and replied, "I don't think so. Every servant in my house has to investigate the root of everything. How would I use someone who isn't completely knowledgeable?" Whenever there's an accident or accident, it happens every time there's an accident. " Dongfang Zhongyue said: "General Li will still have to secretly look into the inner workings of the prefecture. We should be able to find something on the outer perimeter."
It was already the latter half of the night. Li Jinglong wanted to arrange a place for the two of them to stay, but he was rejected by Dongfang Zhong more and more. The two of them went out and found a nearby restaurant. Lei Mingsheng hadn't even had his lunch before he ordered some ready-made food and drinks. Dongfang Zhongyu didn't feel sleepy either. As he drank, he asked, "Thunderhead has been serving at Ying Tian Prefecture's yamen for many years. Do you know anything about this Phoenix Return Restaurant?"
Lei Mingsheng shook his head and thought for a while before saying, "I've been in the capital for more than 30 years. There's nothing I don't know in the entire Southern Capital City. The only thing I don't know is Feng Guixiu …" "Rumor has it that Feng GuiLou is quite mysterious, and he has a good background."
"What kind of background?" "Dongfang Zhongyu is interested in Crown Prince." I can't say, "Lei Mingsheng replied," Originally, fights between the teachers' hall and the teachers' hall were common, but Feng Huijue has never seen it in all these years. "Not to mention that Han Yancui is Hua Kui, even Ji Yaohua and her entourage are famous in the capital. It's rare to see people not jealous of each other."
"Oh …" "It's quite strange." Zhong Yue from the East nodded, "Tomorrow I'll go to Phoenix Restaurant to take a look …"
Since they slept late, it wasn't until late in the morning that the two of them woke up. He had just washed up and hadn't had time to eat breakfast when two constables rushed into the room. Lei Mingsheng asked happily, "Is there any news?"
"There's no news from Duke Cao's Mansion or Feng Huixiu," a constable quickly replied. "But we've found the identities of those who spied on Duke Cao's Mansion. They're …" "Yes …" Say it! "How is it?" Lei Mingsheng was a bit annoyed.
The constable lowered his voice and said, "Chief constable, those are the Imperial Secret Service!" "Ah …?" Lei Mingsheng was surprised, he subconsciously looked at Dongfang Zhongyue, "Is the news accurate?" "Quite sure."
Dongfang Zexuan didn't seem to agree, "The Minister of the Imperial Secret Service is a very common thing, it doesn't mean anything. No one went to look for Ji Yaohua who has returned to Feng Nu Lou? " The other constable replied quickly, "Not yet."
"Oh," Dongfang Jingyue said: "Last night, the person who left Duke Cao's Mansion probably wanted her to send a message to someone else, so we have to hurry up."
After the meal, Lei Mingsheng and Dongfang Zhongyu immediately set off for Feng Zhiling. They had to pass through the Imperial City in order to reach the east gate. There was no response from the east as it was dark last night. As they approached the Gate of Treasure Gathering today, they suddenly felt dizzy …
