The sock lane where Xia Mansion is located is south of the Bianhe River, and when Bianliang was expanded, the enclosure was expanded along the surrounding Bianhe River, and Xia Zhu selected this land at that time to build a new mansion.

If you look down from above, the whole alley looks like a sock on the ground, with the mouth of the sock facing the Bianhe River, and then turning west and connecting with Baokangmen Street, which crosses the Bianhe River and leads directly to Baokangmen, one of the three gates of the southern city.

In this alley, most of them are official residences built by court officials for themselves, but the largest official is only Xia Zhu, and the rest are Beijing officials of four or five grades.

Yang Cha is one of them, Yang Cha is Yan Shu's second son-in-law, and he followed his father-in-law Yan Shu in the third division to become a judge, which is not very big, but it is a fat difference; In addition, with the blessing of the old man, the small life is also comfortable and tight; Yang Cha is not good-looking, low-key, but he has a lot of calculations, after winning the Jinshi, he tried his best to climb the relationship with Yan Shu, knowing that Yan Shu is good at feasting and drinking, especially like good wine, Yang Cha did not hesitate to sell the house in his hometown Luzhou, in exchange for all the money to buy good wine into Yan Shu's belly.

The hard work pays off, and it is precisely because he is very well-behaved that he is deeply favored by Yan Shu and can enter and exit the Yan Mansion freely, so a series of chance encounters occurred, and the second miss of the Yan family always inadvertently bumped into this unattractive guy, and over time he actually had a good impression; So Yang Cha entered the house and became the son-in-law of the Yan family.

All this happened very naturally, Yan Shu didn't even notice it, and even when the second daughter nodded and agreed, Yan Shu woke up like a dream, and his nest was pocketed by this guy; Fortunately, Yang Cha has a little talent, as for his appearance, what is it? Even if he is illiterate Bai Ding, as long as he catches the line of Yan Shu, he will inevitably rise to the top.

Yang Cha belongs to the master of making a fortune in a muffled voice, and within a few years, the previous investment will be returned thousands of times, so a big mansion was also built in Sock Lane, and coincidentally, Yang Cha was built against Xia Zhu's house.

Xia Zhu's official position is big, and the house is also domineering, from Socks Lane to Baokangmen Street, ordinary people can live in at least twenty or thirty households, but they are directly connected by Xia Zhu and Yang Cha's two houses, Xia Zhu's house occupies two-thirds of the depth, and Yang Cha's only accounts for one-third of the depth has not yet arrived.

In the afternoon, after Su Jin received Xia Siling's letter for help, he has been discussing how to act, saving must be saved, but if he takes someone to break in from the main entrance like in Yuzhang Building, I am afraid it is not practical, there are hundreds of people in the Xia family's main house, and there are many people with strong martial arts; Judging from the skills of the two people who assassinated him last time, it is indeed as Uncle Lu said, this new group of people is not good.

Although Su Jin is a stubborn person, he will not be stupid enough to let his subordinates fight for bayonets, unless it is a last resort.

While meditating, Yan Biyun woke up the dreamer with a word: "Socks Alley? Doesn't the second brother-in-law live in Socks Lane? ”

Su Jin was stunned and said, "Are you talking about Yang Cha?" Where does he also live? ”

Yan Biyun said: "The slave family has been to a trip, but I don't know how far away it is from the Xia Mansion, you are worried that there will be damage if you break in, and you are too reckless, it is better to ask Brother-in-law Yang, maybe he knows the terrain and can help." ”

Su Jin was a little hesitant, if he went to find Yang Cha, it would be tantamount to exposing the grievances between himself and Xia Zhu to him, and this time he went to enter the private house, and it was inevitable that he would kill people and see blood, if these things were known to Yang Cha, he didn't know whether it was a curse or a blessing, after all, he didn't have a deep relationship with Yang Cha.

However, Su Jin quickly made a decision, he didn't need to explain anything to Yang Cha at all, he just asked about the situation, maybe Yang Cha would suspect something, but so what? Let him doubt that it's good to go.

Su Jin didn't know the road, Yan Biyun had been there, but Su Jin would never let Yan Biyun follow, fortunately, Xiao Xian'er also seemed to have some impressions, so Su Jin ordered the dynasty Ma Han and others to entangle more than fifty nursing homes in the lightning and thunder to get into the carriage and go straight to Baokangmen Street.

Xiao Xian'er said that Yang Cha's mansion was said to be in Socks Lane, but in fact, the gate was facing Baokangmen Street, and the land belonged to Socks Lane.

When they came to the door of the Yang Mansion, the heavy rain poured down, Su Jin Dynasty and others sat in the car and parked on the corner of the street to wait, and knocked on the door of the Yang Mansion with Xiao Sui'er.

Yang Cha's family was having dinner, and the family came to report that Su Jin had come, which startled Yang Cha; This cousin of Yanfu is more open than his own genuine uncle, he can almost walk sideways up and down Yanfu, of course he wants to have a good relationship with him, but this master seems to be only better to Fubi, but not salty to himself, if it weren't for the fact that they are all fellow villagers in Luzhou, I am afraid that they will not even talk a few words, and now this master actually came to the door in the rain, Yang Cha was obviously a little surprised.

"What kind of wind blew the champion here, and it was shining." Yang Cha let Su Jin into the main hall with a haha, and Yang Cha's wife also rushed from the inner hall to meet the guests, and they were all relatives, so they were naturally polite.

Su Jin only said: "The younger brother went out to do errands, and when he passed by here, there was a sudden storm, and I heard that Xiao Xian'er said that Brother-in-law Yang lived here, so he came to hide from the rain uninvited, and by the way, he came to recognize the door, so that they could walk around each other next time." ”

Yang Cha naturally didn't believe it, but he didn't say anything, the two chatted a few words, and Su Jin pulled the topic to the house, praising the location pattern of Yang's mansion is good.

When Yang Cha was humble, Su Jin turned his words and asked, "I heard that the mansion of Xia Zhu, the deputy privy envoy of the dynasty, is also here?" ”

Yang Cha's eyelids jumped, he had already heard about Su Jin and Xia Zhu's disagreement, although it was just a gossip, but Yang Cha never thought that rumors were just rumors.

"To be precise, the gate of the Xia Mansion is far away from the gate of my house."

"Oh......" A hint of disappointment flashed in Su Jin's eyes, and he was captured by Yang Cha in just a moment.

"But...... The back door of our two houses is just a stone's throw away. Yang Cha said lightly, looking at Su Jin out of the corner of his eye.

Su Jin's heart jumped and he smiled: "Oh? Isn't that the first thing to get is the moon near the water? Brother Yang and Deputy Envoy Xia live next to each other, can't they communicate often. ”

Yang Cha waved his hand and said: "What did you say, I, Yang, never disdained to make friends with this person, to tell the truth, I don't care about what he did, when I built this house, I didn't know that I would be adjacent to him, if I knew, how could I build a house here?" ”

Su Jin was very strange, what was the purpose of Yang Cha saying this, he was just saying it casually, Yang Cha swore by gambling in his heart, which is strange.

Of course, Yang Cha is not a heartless rectum, he has already seen that Su Jin must have something to do when he comes today, and when he saw that Su Jin flickered and refused to say, he could only make his position clear first and let Su Jin dispel his concerns; The way of communication lies in mutual communication, if you reveal your heart to the other party, and take the initiative to stuff the pigtail into the hands of others, the other party will inevitably be wary of you, and you will be blunt about what to say; Yang Cha is naturally very proficient in this way, anyway, it is not a big deal, Xia Zhu and Yan Shu do not have a good relationship, he obviously wants to be consistent with Yan Shu, this position is originally affirmative, what is it to slander Xia Zhu behind his back, if necessary, Yang Cha will dare to contradict Xia Zhu in the court.

Su Jin really relaxed his vigilance, thought for a while and asked, "Your house and the Xia family house are built back to back, and it's difficult not to touch them." ”

Yang Cha said: "It's not a boundary at all, although the back doors are opposite, but they are all built with high walls, and there is a small river between the two walls, so they don't get along at all." ”

Su Jin was overjoyed, and said softly: "Can you take the younger brother to take a look, the younger brother knows that Brother Yang must feel strange, but after reading it, the younger brother will tell you the reason in detail?" ”

Yang Cha smiled and said: "There is no need to explain the reason to me, but the matter of your Su brothers, we are relatives, secondly, fellow villagers, and thirdly, I have long admired you, as long as you can help, but please do it yourself." ”

Su Jin didn't expect Yang Cha to be such an interesting person, and when he heard this, he gave a deep salute and said: "Brother Yang is a wonderful person, I have made a friend of yours Su Jin." ”

Yang Cha was silent, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, and took Su Jin to the backyard, the two of them came to the left side of the wall with their robes and hats, Su Jin looked up, the walls of the Yang family were as high as Zhangxu, all of them were made of green bricks, and they were covered with porcelain thorns; Approaching the back door, looking out along the crack in the door, a turbulent small river passed through the back door, and the opposite bank two zhang away was the tall Xia family's backyard wall that was more than twice as tall as the Yang house.

The height of this wall is beyond Su Jin's imagination, the big trees inside can only show half of the canopy, and the ancient moss on it is impossible, it is impossible to climb up, and it is also built next to the river, and there is no place to stand at all.

Su Jin looked at it for a while, pulled Yang Cha to the backyard under the porch, and said softly: "Brother Yang, don't hide it, today I will take someone to Xia Mansion to save someone; If you enter through the main gate, you will inevitably encounter the Xia family's nursing home, so I want to borrow the backyard of your mansion, but now I have a new way to disturb Brother Yang. ”

Yang Cha was shocked: "Do you want to enter the Xia Mansion?" It's dangerously tight, there are a lot of nurseries in the Xia Mansion, and you can often hear the barking of dogs in the backyard of the Xia Mansion, and there may be vicious dogs. ”

Su Jin said: "It's okay, it's imperative, the little brother will say goodbye, and Brother Yang will treat me as if he hasn't seen me come to visit." ”

Su Jin hurriedly said goodbye, out of the gate of Yang's mansion, the wind and rain were even worse, Su Jin got into the carriage and took Wang Dynasty Ma Han and others straight to the Bianhe River.

Su Jin figured it out, he couldn't enter from the Yang family, as soon as tonight passed, there would definitely be an official investigation tomorrow, and he and others would inevitably leave traces when they entered the Yang house, and the government would easily find out these traces, and then it would be troublesome.

What Su Jin needs is another way to enter, as long as the foothold is not in the Yang Mansion, it has nothing to do with the Yang Mansion.
