Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Two - Opening the Building to Kill the Night(1/2)

Chapter 122: Killing a building at night

Just like Fan Xian often said, no matter what happens, life must continue.

So after entering the fourth month of the sixth year of Qingli, there was not much change in the Jiangnan area and in previous years. The sensational Mingjiajia property lawsuit continued. After the bidding of the inner warehouse, various royal merchants began to receive goods and sell goods. Officials were still secretly collecting silver, and citizens in Suzhou were still talking about state affairs, family affairs and sexual intercourse.

But there were some minor changes. First of all, the Ming family's property lawsuit has been fought for too long, and both parties have been struggling for too long, so they gradually lost the fresh and exciting feeling at the beginning. There are fewer and fewer professional onlookers who stay outside the Suzhou government every day. The magistrate of Suzhou and the lawyers of both parties can hardly withstand this marathon-like torture, from opening a daily church to opening a three-day church to opening a six-day church for now.

With the help of their respective forces, Song Shiren and Chen Bochang were still plunging head-on into the old paper pile and the moldy Qinglu looking for strong evidence to their side, while the focus of the Ming family and Xia Qifei had shifted from the case.

The Ming family knew that they could no longer be dragged into the home property lawsuit by the imperial envoy, so they forced themselves to cheer up and began to manage the internal warehouse business that would definitely lose money this year, hoping to lose less.

Xia Qifei also wanted to start learning to do business. Now he has transformed himself into the largest imperial merchant in Jiangnan except for the Ming family. In previous years, most of the routes to the north of the Cui family have been taken down by him. He has to reopen the defense lines of various counties and prefectures and connect with merchants from the north. Although Fan Xian is helping him behind his back, this is still an extremely complicated task.

The day before leaving Suzhou, Xia Qifei, as the seventh young master of the Ming family, invited the Jiangnan rich people who were still staying in Suzhou City to have a meal. The night was full of crowns, the carriages were endless, and the merchants came and went to and from time to time, which led to the seven-point wealth and honor in Suzhou City.

And all these wealth and honor gathered at the place where Xia Qifei invited guests - the Suzhou Branch of Baoyuelou.

After a few days of delay, the Suzhou branch of Baoyue Building finally opened. This building was originally the Zhuyuan Pavilion of Mingjia, which was the most lively place in Suzhou City. Shi Chanli took the 50,000 taels of silver to deal with it, and governments at all levels also gave Fan Xian enough face. He waved his hand all the way and let it go. It should be opened as soon as the decoration was completed. It was just because there were some problems in the middle that it was delayed to this day.

The problem is that Baoyuelou does not have a red card girl who can make it. Everything in this world pays attention to a brand effect. Although Shi Chanli borrowed some prostitutes from the bosses of Jiangnan Fengyueye, none of them had a reputation that resounded throughout Jiangnan.

There is no top leader to support the building. The Baoyue Tower, which wanted to start in Jiangnan, definitely did not dare to open the land like this, so it was dragged until Sang Wen came to Jiangnan. With her position in the industry, she attracted several Jiangnan Mingqu people. Shi Qing'er from the Baoyue Tower in Kyoto worked hard to invite a newly rising red prostitute on the Liujing River, and a beautiful Xihu who was snatched from Xihu by a eldest prince. He sent these two girls' homes to Suzhou, and with those Mingqu people, Shi Chanli had the confidence to officially open the business.

That night, Xia Qifei hosted a group of Jiangnan wealthy people on the second floor. The red lights were hanging high and the silk and bamboo were gentle, which made a very beautiful start for the opening of Baoyue Tower.

On the first day of the opening of the Suzhou Branch of Baoyue Tower, there was no wide range of guests, but it only attracted all the richest people in Jiangnan. As soon as this momentum came out, those self-proclaimed romantic young men and children of officials would not all pounce on them like dogs sticking out their tongues in a few days?

The newly rising red apprentice on the Liujing River in Kyoto is named Liang Diandian. He is only sixteen years old and is born with a romantic smell. There is a charming charm between his childish eyebrows and eyes. There is a hint of coldness hidden in the charm. As soon as he debuted, he captured the eyes of the Kyoto Romance Field. He was known as Yuan Meng and the girl who has become a legendary brothel, and has the most potential to firmly sit at the top.

But before Miss Liang Diandian had time to show off her skirt in Kyoto, she was forced to buy it by Baoyuelou and forced to send it to Suzhou. She felt a little uncomfortable. She knew the background of Baoyuelou, so she couldn't make anything. However, after coming to Suzhou, she signed a very novel contract with Sang Wen from the beginning, which surprised the girl's family who was only sixteen. The contract seemed to be beneficial to her... Where is such a good madam in this world?

Another beauty from Xihu was born in a very different way from the women in the Central Plains. Her eyes were slightly sunken but not abrupt. Instead, the extremely deep band deepened the seductiveness of her face. Especially the slightly dark skin did not look rough, but instead had a mysterious beauty like a black pearl. Moreover, the figure of this Xihu beauty was really curved, with a protruding front and a squint back, which made the Qingguo people, who were used to the light taste of Chinese women, dry their tongues.

But the origin of this Xihu beauty is even more strange than that of Liang Diandian. The Xihu beauty has a surname, Ma Suo, and is a princess from a tribe of Xihu!

The eldest prince led the army to the west, and the Xihu was defeated in the front and back. I don’t know how many tribes he conquered. The second largest tribe leader gave his treasure daughter to the eldest prince in order to show his sincerity in surrendering, which was a bit of a marriage. Unexpectedly, the eldest prince was really a rough guy, and he treated the enemy’s daughter as a female slave. Especially after marrying the Grand Princess of Northern Qi, it was even more inconvenient to leave this beautiful Xihu in the palace. So when he heard that Fan Xian opened the top brothel in Jiangnan, he rushed to Baoyue Tower and then transferred it to Suzhou.

The two girls went from Kyoto to Suzhou. Between the opening of Baoyue Building, the eight departments had already helped Fan Xian with sufficient publicity and offensives. Although the eight departments did not have many ways to deal with the Ming family in Jiangnan, it was a small problem to portray the two girls into peerless beauties that could only be found in heaven but definitely not in the world. Shi Chanli cooperated with the speculations and rumors about the two girls in the market, and cleverly made the two girls choose to take a carriage outside Suzhou City a few days ago...

Outings are just to create momentum, allowing the lustful people in Jiangnan to see the peerless faces of the two girls from afar. Along the way, they followed the peddlers who were carrying the Yuelou carriage, and all the green fields in front and behind the carriage were stepped onto the ground by the men's feet or horse hooves. The so-called outings really flattened the grass.

In this way, everyone in Jiangnan knew what kind of two women Baoyuelou had now, and her appetite was finally caught.

Today, Baoyuelou branch opened, but these two top girls did not go out to see guests. Even people with the status of Sun Family in Quanzhou and Xiong Family in Lingnan are not qualified to let them go out and sit with them for a while.

Because both of these girls sat in a room very well and quietly, beside a young man. Qu Yi gently raised his wrist and cup to feed the young man for food and drink.

In front of this young man, no matter how resentful the two girls were, they dared not show it. Even their best skills to deceive men's hearts were used casually.

What they survive in this world is nothing more than their appearance and delicate thoughts. At this time, the young man who sat peacefully among the two of them was already pretty and unparalleled. As for their thoughts... Everyone knows that Mr. Xiao Fan has a crystal heart. There is nothing in this world that he doesn't know, and no one he can't see through.

Fan Xian shook his head and signaled the two girls around him not to serve him anymore. He wanted to say that the two girls around him who were already surrounded by the beautiful girls who were gradually becoming famous in Jiangnan. If he had no idea in his mind and did not want to drink that first taste of the soup, he would definitely be a lie, but now his mind is not on these aspects.

He looked at Liang Diandian and sighed, thinking to himself why this 16-year-old girl's house is so seductive? Her watery eyes seemed to be talking. Thinking of this festival, I couldn't help but think of the problem that has troubled me for a long time - how old is Duoduo?

Seeing Liang Diandian's affectionate eyes, Fan Xian knew that the girl was just trying to climb a backer professionally. However, when she turned around and saw the beautiful woman in Xihu, Fan Xian felt more and more distressed.

I was originally the Princess Xihu, but now I am in a ditch... This Massoso probably accepted his fate long ago. In this world, women are just goods in the hands of men. They are sold casually. Now they are sent to Jiangnan by the eldest prince. The Baoyue Tower does not seem to be very scary, and the shopkeeper Sang and Shi Dong's family are not very fierce. The person in front of him is really beautiful. It seems that he is much happier than staying in the palace as a coolie and being watched by the eldest princess. I don't know when I will die.

Fan Xian sighed to Sang Wen, who was sitting opposite him, "What's this called? Your Highness is bullying people, right?"

Sang Wen was stunned, opened his big mouth, smiled and said, "Miss Soso is very beautiful in her birth, but adults rarely see Hu people, so she was a little uncomfortable for a moment. Your Highness did not deliberately fool the adults."

Fan Xian said, he had seen many Western beauties in his previous life, and was also a loyal fan of Miss Ajiani. Of course, he could see the attractiveness of this Western beauties... But the eldest prince is not afraid of heaven and earth, but now he is afraid to send this girl to Suzhou. It is obvious that the eldest princess of Northern Qi finally successfully transformed into the female lion in Hedong after marrying from the Southern Qi for several months. The eldest prince sent Massosu to Suzhou, naturally trying to protect Massosu's life. Since this is the case, it means that the eldest prince has a sympathy for this Western beauties.

In this case, is Fan Xian really brave enough to let Massoso pick up customers? I'm afraid he has to be careful. What if the Lord Highness suddenly becomes interested one day, dreams of blowing the horns and camp, and remembering the beauty while drunk, and then asking for someone to ask for?

"I really don't let them go out to see the guests?" Shi Chanli walked in from outside, probably with the merchants to drink some wine, his face was a little red, his speech was a little drunk, and he stared at Fan Xian blankly.

Fan Xian frowned for a while, turned to look at Liang Diandian's thoughtful expression, knowing that if he really kept Somama, Liang Diandian also needed to comfort him. After a little calm, he said, "I'm just making a name for myself now, so I don't rush to let them go out to see the guests."

He smiled slightly and said, "It's just that occasionally you two go out to play the song and dance somewhere."

Liang Diandian was slightly stunned and bowed to Somama at the same time. Somama's official words are not very neat, but his eyes already reveal his gratitude to Fan Xian.

Fan Xian continued to smile and said, "A wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a steal. It is better to steal than to steal than to steal. It is better to make people feel itchy every day but still can't touch it... Let the men in Jiangnan endure it for a few days first, and learn the principle that you can only see from afar and not be close to it."

He finally said to Sang Wenshi Chanli: "Men are all very cheap animals. If you can understand this, the business will be easier."

Hearing this sentence, Shi Chanli was slightly embarrassed and felt a little dissatisfied. However, Sang Wen covered his mouth and laughed.

"Take them out to meet the old guys Xiong Bailing, and these businessmen brag about it, their reputation will be even louder." Fan Xian closed his eyes and waved.

Liang Diandian held Somama's hand, stood up and gave Fan Xiankuankuan, and then went out under the leadership of Sang Wendi.

Fan Xian asked Shi Chanli to get closer and said in a low voice: "Somama, look at it, let the wind be heard so that people can know that he is the eldest prince's...a woman."

Shi Chanli responded shockedly: "What should I do if I send it back to Kyoto?"

"I just want people to know that I have a good relationship with the eldest prince." Fan Xian licked his dry lips. He took a sip of light wine and said with a smile: "At this time, everyone is still showing off the cards... The key is, why should I wipe my butt for the couple's housework?"

He snorted from his nose and said, "I and the eldest princess go south all the way. Of course I know that he is not a good master. The eldest prince seems straightforward, but he also knows that I am probably the only one in the world now... the eldest princess will give me two points of face. Since I have to do my best, of course I can't afford to pay a little."

Fan Xian was just a little unhappy and thought to himself that I was busy working hard in Jiangnan, but you brothers and princes were busy with housework in Beijing, and they felt very unbalanced.

The Suzhou semicolon of Baoyuelou is of course not just for laundering money, but for making money. This is purely Fan Xian’s own real estate industry and shoulders the important responsibility of becoming Fan Xian’s second intelligence system. In the deepest part of his heart, Fan Xian always does not fully trust the Supervision Office. Because whether he can own the Supervision Office is still a question of the emperor’s words under the current situation.

So when the renovation was made, the brass pipe had been laid according to the settings of the old building in Kyoto, and the staff sent by my father to collect intelligence were deceived by the corresponding officials and had already entered the building before the girls.

As the sound was getting louder in the building, the sound was getting higher and higher. Fan Xian was in the room where he was very quiet.

He stood up. He went to the toilet after bed to clear the inventory, adjusted his breathing, took off the civilian clothes he was wearing, took out the long-lost "work clothes" from the cabinet, tried it, and found that it was quite fit. It seemed that the life of the powerful people in the past six months did not make his figure quickly distorted.

After sitting strangely for a while, confirming that he had begun to get used to the feeling that he had been away for half a year, Fan Xian pushed open the window of the room, and his fingers were firmly and vigorously slid down the exterior wall of the darkness, sliding towards the darkness downstairs like a gecko.

Since the meridians that exploded in the body's true qi have been severely damaged, he has begun to be careful about the operation of the true qi. Without any need, he no longer tries to spit out the true qi and retract it. This method is really too exhausting for both mind and true qi.

My feet touched the ground, turned a few times between the complex corridors, found the back door of the Baoyuelou semi-colon, pushed it out, and saw the carriage waiting for him in the alley.

Deng Ziyue sat in the position of the husband, wearing a straw hat on his head, covering most of his face.

Gundam sat in the carriage, lifting a corner of the curtain, and looking outside vigilantly.

Fan Xian flashed in and said a little: "Go."

"Sir, how are your injuries?" Gundam was not afraid of Fan Xian's cold eyes. His highest mission was to ensure Fan Xian's safety. He really did not dare to let Fan Xian take risks before he received the confirmed information.

There are different opinions about Fan Xian's strange injuries, but most people think he has been cured long ago. Only a few people know the inside story, and Eunuch Hong must be one of them. The emperor made Fan Xian extremely disappointed and remained silent. Like Gundam, although he was hidden by Fan Xian at the beginning, he has been with Fan Xian for the past few months. Of course, he can find that Lord Tisi's true energy status is completely different from that when he went to Northern Qi.

With the gift of Haitang Di Tian’s mind method, no one knows how well Fan Xian’s injury is, except himself. He doesn’t even know about Haitang.

He lowered his head and said softly, "It's okay." Then he said, "Confirm her location?"

Deng Ziyue outside the carriage nodded: "Since she escaped from Kyoto, she has been staying in Suzhou. She didn't expect that she was so brave, nor did she expect that officials from Jiangnan dared to provide her with shelter... So it was not until a few days ago that her residence was checked."

A sneer appeared on Fan Xian's lips: "You Ming family covers her, so the officials in Jiangnan certainly give her some face... It seems that the officials in Jiangnan still did not take this official seriously."

After all, Gundam was the emperor's Hu Guard. After all, he frowned slightly and said, "Young Master. Should we notify the local government to arrest people... After all, criminal cases have never been under the jurisdiction of the court."

Since Fan Xian dared to bring him tonight, he was not afraid of what he said to the palace. He shook his head and said, "I informed the government that she might be letting her run away again. After all, she is the second prince and Hongcheng. The arrest documents of the Ministry of Justice have no effect on her. It is not easy to arrest her from the surface."

"We should bring more people." Gundam frowned and said, "Since she was ordered to escape, she must have masters around her. It is not easy to capture her alive."

"It's not to capture alive, it's just killing people." Fan Xian leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest. "I don't need to use her to deal with the Ming family. I just need to use her to suppress the Ming family. Today, Baoyuelou branch opened, no one should have thought that we would find her to do it, and no one would have thought that... I will do it myself."

Gundam wanted to speak but stopped, and began to understand Fan Xian's thoughts. But he could not stop the other party. Fan Xian's purpose was actually very simple in his actions tonight. Since the officials of Jiangnan Road were standing on the opposite side of their own on the road to deal with the Ming family and dared to cover up the Ming family, he would shock the officials of Jiangnan Road through this incident tonight.

For those officials, nothing can highlight the power of the Inspectorate more than blood and death.

The carriage fell into death silence, and only the sound of the wheels below were heard.

The carriage drove outside a quiet street in Suzhou City. It was still a long way from the house, so it stopped.

Fan Xian touched the dagger in his boots, and gently pressed the soft sword around his waist. The sword was borrowed from Haitang. After carefully confirming the equipment, he whispered: "Gundam, you are responsible for the periphery, and don't leave any survivors, don't let someone slip away."

Gundam responded in a deep voice.

"Is the people sent to the Governor's Office ready?" Fan Xian asked.

Deng Ziyue nodded.

"Wait for us here. Be careful."

After saying this, Fan Xian flashed out of the carriage like a black loach and disappeared rapidly into the darkness under the high wall.

Tonight, there were only three people. As Fan Xian's current identity, he shouldn't have come to take risks alone. It's just a secret that must be done today. And the most critical reason is that Fan Xianda has always maintained this kind of adventure from the bottom of his heart, and he must restore his confidence in martial arts through an action, and at the same time test how far he has practiced the sword secretly these days.

Gundam counted the time and guessed that it was almost done. He tied up the hemp rope on the long hijab hijab and walked out of the carriage, and walked calmly to the back of the house like a demon.

There are countless masters hidden in the courtyard in the dark, but there are only two of them. Perhaps only Fan Xian and Gundam have such confidence.

Gundam stood silently under the back wall of the house, and his whole body seemed to be integrated with the stone wall, gradually no difference, but the true energy in his body gradually moved up, listening clearly the subtle sounds inside the wall.

There was an occasional slight sound in the yard, just like the sound of a hard-tip geese that Lord Tisi liked to use to scratch the paper. If he hadn't listened attentively, no one would have noticed this sound.

Gundam knew that one person had already died at Fan Xian's hands.

Another muffled sound, like a pancake just out of the oven, suddenly breathing.

Gunda frowned slightly. Could it be that Lord Tisi used his palm to open someone else's head?

Fan Xian was walking steadily and silently in the courtyard like a ghost in the dark night. There were several corpses behind him. The wounds on the corpse were not conspicuous and there was not much blood flowing. But he died completely.

And the doors of several wing rooms beside him were wide open at this time, and the sleeping people inside had been killed on the bed by him before they even got up.
To be continued...
