Chapter 171 Intricate 4

"Lord Liu, don't scare you, you have studied in the next place, joined the army, begged for food on the way to death, and now come to Zhongdu, but it is just to find relatives, but relatives are not allowed to do it, and the hometown will suffer again, and there is nowhere to live, rather than this, it is better to fight to the death!"

Helan Wen did not retreat, but gave Liu Xun an unexpected impression, the two sides were deadlocked and silent, but Liu Xun ordered: "Wait out and wait, no one can come in without the old man!" ”

When only He Lanwen and Liu Xun were left in the hall, Liu Xun got up and walked closer, and said directly: "What do you want?" ”

Regarding Liu Xun's crispness, He Lanwen moved his sore shoulders that were bound by the house slaves, and said: "Lord Liu is simply, he deserves to be a big official of the court!"

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me what news you know about my son's fire case!"

"Lord Liu, what do you think of the current Chaofeng in the central capital!"

Helan Wen didn't answer the question, Liu Xun frowned, He Lanwen smiled: "Lord Liu, I won't tell you, on the next day, I just passed by the streets and alleys of Liu Ji's son's private house, and before the fire started, I heard a few men in the wind and dryness recently, which angered my master, so I have to give those people some color to see!" ”

"What do you mean?"

Listening to these words, Liu Xun didn't understand very well, Helan Wen turned around and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, moistened his throat, and continued: "At that time, I didn't care, a group of street ruffians, who were not good at it, received money from some people, and were ready to do some shady private work. So I quietly avoided those people, and after half a while, a fire broke out in a house at the end of the street, and I turned around to put out the fire, but I saw those people swaggering away from the back door of the house that was on fire! ”

At this point, Helan Wen looked at Liu Xun and asked, "Lord Liu, do you understand the matter here?" ”

Liu Xun pondered for a moment, and naturally understood what He Lanwen meant, those men were the perpetrators, as for why they committed the murder, it was no different from his previous guess, it should be done by Chaofeng, but He Lanwen didn't hear who those men were doing things for, this is not the key, even if Liu Xun wants to send someone to arrest him, there is no evidence of guilt.

Looking at Liu Xun's appearance, Helan Wen bowed and saluted: "Lord Liu, I am not talented in Xia, but I hope to be able to ask for an errand in this way, before, I was an entourage in the house of Du Hui Gongzi, but Du Hui Gongzi looked down on the character of the subordinate, so he drove out of the Xia, and now I think about it carefully, I am only afraid of the fire case, and it is really inseparable from the Du family, if you want to say why, it can only be estimated that Du Ruting of Du Mansion is the capital of the old minister's family, and it is just opposite to your old courtier's family in the East Palace, and the person who died is your son, The stakes should be clear..."

"You are all talking, what evidence do you have to make the old man believe you!"

Liu Xun shouted: "Don't make a few nonsense words to disturb the old man, in exchange for benefits!" ”

"Lord Liu, what you say is human, I tried my best to come here, just to fight for my own benefits, but what I say is true, if you dare to fake the slightest, the sky will hit five thunders, and the clan will not be overborn!"

When this kind of poisonous oath is released, Liu Xun's mind loosens a little bit, as a member of a big family, Liu Xun and these guys are particularly taboo about certain oaths, just like Helanwen said, if a family has an incident, the ancestors are humiliated and removed, and the descendants are disgraced, then how many lifetimes can't turn over, so let Liu Xun swear a poisonous oath, he will never dare.

In Liu Xun's contemplation, He Lanwen spoke again: "In addition to those clues, I can also help the adults in the next place, that is, to find those men, at least remember their appearance and voice, as long as they are arrested, the truth of the fire case will be revealed. ”

Du Hui Mansion.

"Young boy, why did you let that guy go, his origin is unknown, he is not acting properly, there must be woe, if you want the slave to say, it is better to be executed, so as not to cause disaster in the future!"

The general Xu Wei said to Du Hui: "Now the slave's people are staring at He Lanwen, that guy left our mansion and went directly to Liu Xun's mansion, what do you think he is doing?" ”

"Liu Xun?"

Du Hui was stunned, and then his face was gloomy: "Helan Wen went to Liu's Mansion?" Are you sure? ”

"Du Gongzi, if you want the slave to say, that guy is not a good person, you think, after you meet him on the street, evil things continue, maybe he is a ghost among them!"

Xu Wei hurriedly admonished, and finally Xu Wei knelt on the ground: "Childe, you are kind-hearted, and the slave and others are well known, but the kindness can't help you, and the master can't help the master, so the slave thinks that no matter how things develop next, that Helan Wen can't stay, he must be a scourge!" ”

After a deep speech, Du Hui didn't say anything, Xu Wei went out immediately to end He Lanwen's life.

It's just that Xu Wei didn't know that there were still five family generals by Helanwen's side, and although Helanwen left Du Hui's mansion, Tong Baozhan, one of his subordinates, was still monitoring Du Hui, just in case.

This Tong Baozhan followed Xu Wei all the way, before he rushed to Liu's mansion, Tong Baozhan took a shortcut and passed the message to Helan Wen first, after Helan Wen knew, his mind turned around, and with a little command, he waited for Xu Wei and others to arrive.

In the back street of Liu's mansion, after He Lanwen talked with Liu Xun, in return, Liu Xun promised that as long as he caught those muddy people and found out the black hand to avenge Liu Ji, then He Lanwen would be able to enter Zhongshu Pavilion as a messenger as a small official of the mansion, which made He Lanwen very satisfied.

Later, Helan Wen swaggered away from Liu's mansion to check where those people were for Liu Xun, for safety, Liu Xun sent several house slaves to follow Helan Wen, first, to prevent the old ministers from doing anything wrong, and when they heard the rumors, they attacked He Lanwen, and secondly, it was also a disguised surveillance of Helan Wen to prevent changes.

On the back street, Helan Wen walked unhurriedly with the old man's steps, and when he was about to turn the fork in the road, He Lanwen slowed down, he frowned and thought for a moment, and said to a Liu Fu slave: "You go to the dim sum stall in front and take a look, I'm hungry and can't walk anymore!" ”

Although the house slave was unwilling, he still did it under Liu Xun's order, but he didn't expect that just after turning the fork in the corner, the house slave was stunned, and immediately fell on his back.

"Give it to Lao Tzu!"

At the same time, a low shout came from the fork, Helan Wen moved his body backwards, several house slaves stood in front of him to look, seven or eight men in regular clothes had already rushed over with knives, and it was Xu Wei who was the leader.

"Damn, who are you waiting for? I'm waiting for Lord Liu Xun's mansion..."

Liu's house slaves are famous, but Xu Wei is not afraid at all, these house slaves don't talk to the ground, Xu Wei and others have rushed up, and the house slaves immediately made a mess with the battle, look at this, He Lanwen turned around and fled, Xu Wei has been staring at He Lanwen, so he naturally followed closely.
