Chapter 239 Revenge

As the end of the year approaches, not many people come to Erlang Temple to burn incense. There will be traffic in front of the gate of the first lunar month. Ren's family is close to each other, and Ren Liuer is unwilling to join in the fun, so she came to the temple in a sedan chair with only one maid next to her. The madam and others did not expect that they would be in danger.

Wuque Hutong is located in the southeast of the city and is remote. Incense burners often come in groups. Perhaps it is a coincidence or premeditation. The famous "Seven Fairies" even came to the city together and came to worship the gods in advance. They met Ren Liuer in the temple of Erlang Temple.

Both sides had never met before, but they could see each other's identity as soon as they hit him. Ren Liuer whispered and was heard by the woman next to her when she reported to her house.

"Ren Liu'er from our Hutong?" the woman asked.

Ren Liuer did not respond, but turned her head and looked over, revealing a hint of surprise.

"Young Master Zhu Jiu went to your house last night?"

Ren Liuer answered the question with her face, got up and pulled the maid away.

The seven fairies in Wuque Hutong had no fairy spirit at this time and they surrounded him and beat him. The maid was frightened and forgot to save his master. She also got punched several times. The incense Taoist in the hall was also stunned and stepped forward to persuade him, but he still got a pink fist.

Fan Dajian was checking the accounts behind him. When he got the news, the fight had ended. The seven fairies took their people away, leaving a mess in the hall. A fairy walked behind and smiled at Fan Dajian: "The god here is indeed effective. The first time I came to burn incense, I will take revenge."

According to the Xianghuo Taoist, it is not uncommon to be jealous in Erlang Temple, but he has never seen such a fight before, so he is an eye-opener.

The Ren family rushed over after hearing the news, but the other party was gone. The madam was so angry that she cursed, but she had no choice but to carry her daughter away hatefully and cursed her all the way.

When Pandajian came to Hu's house to report the news, Ren Liuer probably had just arrived home.

"Who is this Master Zhu Jiu?" Hu Guiyang asked.

Fan Dajian was stunned, "It was Ren Liu'er who was beaten."

"I know, I'll visit her later. Now I want to know who Mr. Zhu Jiu is."

Fan Dajian shook his head, "I haven't heard of it. I guess it was a rich man from a certain place. He would definitely not be a royal relative of the Zhu family."

There were many relatives of the imperial capital, but no one dared to openly enter and exit the spring courtyard, which even caused a fight.

Yuan Mao kept standing beside him and listened, and then said, "Young Master Zhu Jiu, can't it be Zhu Jiutou?"

"Zhu Jiutou?" Hu Guiyang thought the name was very interesting and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Okay, I feel relieved when you are so ruthless and unrighteous to the fan head." Fan Dajian praised.

Hu Guiyang ignored him and said to Yuan Mao: "Who is he?"

"It's a ruined family in the city. His surname is Zhu, not a royal relative, nor a rich man. He often talks about the "power of nine oxen and two tigers" and everyone calls him Zhu Jiutou. This man loves to marry and always says that his ancestors are in kinship with Taizu and are not recorded in the book of the book. He often goes to various yamen to find ways, hoping to become a naturalized person, so I have seen him."

"Young Master Zhu Jiu is probably not the person you mentioned." Fan Dajian became less and less like him. "The guest who can make the girl in Chunyuan fight is at least a wealthy person."

"Maybe I was wrong." Yuan Mao himself didn't feel like it, "Only the two words 'Zhu Jiu' are the same."

"Zhu Jiutou is a hundred households. Have you ever been to Yunyang Prefecture in summer?"

"I don't know very well, I can ask."

"No need, I'll go to the Ren family to inquire."

Fan Dajian turned to Yuan Mao, not caring whether Hu Guiyang could hear it, and whispered: "He still cares and refuses to reveal it in front of us."

Hu Guiyang did not move, and Fan Dajian said again: "He is waiting for the evening, and it is easy to talk in the middle of the night."

Hu Guiyang smiled and said, "Yuan Mao, you go first. The old Taoist stays and will accompany me to the Ren family later."

Fan Dajian shook his head, "I am a person who has attained enlightenment and will not hide the dirt."

Yuan Mao said goodbye and said to Fan Dajian before leaving: "Then you shouldn't be too talkative."

Fan Dajian turned around and wanted to leave. Hu Guiyang walked in front of him in two steps and stopped him, "How did you become the temple master?"

"You have obtained it for me, but I really can't go to my current identity..."

"Stop coming. Yesterday you were excited to make a lot of money by using the conflict between the two sides. Are you not interested today?"

"Hehe, everyone is a pilgrimage from Erlang Temple. Making money is one thing. In terms of major issues, I have to be neutral and impartial. Are you right?"

Hu Guiyang didn't really want to take him to the Ren family, but he didn't give way, "Tell me about your way to make money."

"I'm going to say yesterday that you don't like to listen... It's like this. The fisherman is fighting for the snipe and clams. I'm the fisherman. The girls on both sides are fighting so hard. I plan to take the opportunity to launch some aphrodisiacs and aphrodisiacs. Of course, you can't call such a name. It should be a lovesickness talisman, a kind of love pill."

Hu Guiyang sneered. This was a common trick for the adopted son of the Zhao family.

Fan Dajian said again: "Of course, this can only make some small money, and the more you make less and less, I have a plan. Wuque Hutong suddenly emerges, and there must be a big backer behind him. Dig him out, and then I go to find the city's Lehuhutong and let them pay from house to house. I go to handle some things. Even if Wuque Hutong cannot be eradicated, there will be business in and outside the city."

Fan Dajian was able to follow the customs of the countryside. Not long ago, he sneered at the Spring Court business, but now he has come up with various ways to plunder money.

"Have you found the backer?"

"No, you don't want to go, so I have to find someone else. There is not much news. I only know that there must be support from the palace. Hey, it would be quite interesting if it was a eunuch Kaichun Courtyard."

"You go too, let me know if there is news." Hu Guiyang moved aside.

"If you want to participate, you can't come and intervene when things are about to come."

"I only have news, even if you return my favor."

"No money?"

"The money is all yours."

Fan Dajian smiled and said, "Okay, there will be news within three days."

Another "three days" was that Hu Guiyang found that he could not take it too seriously. Many times, the so-called "three days" was an imaginary number, and it was possible for a few days.

After lunch, Hu Guiyang took a nap and probably decided to settle down, so he went out to our Hutong. The door was not locked, and two boxes of silver were not hidden, so he handed it over to Dabing to guard.

When passing Erlang Temple, he saw many people gathered in front of the temple gate, discussing the morning fight with great enthusiasm. They were all vivid and vivid, and the details were so detailed that they were far beyond Fan Dajian's description.

The Spring Courtyard in our Hutong never opens to welcome guests. When the guests knocked on the door, someone came in. The front hall was seated, and asked about the situation in a few words, and sent it to the back hall, and chatted a few more words. After confirming that the guests were indeed willing to spend money, they invited the girl out to meet him. Gradually, they became familiar with each other and began to spend money.

Hu Guiyang knocked on the Ren family's door, but he didn't get a response for a while. He stood alone at the door, looking quite embarrassed.

There are many idle people like Jiang and Zheng in the alley. They just wander on the streets when they have nothing to do, giving guidance to newcomers and raising the atmosphere for regular customers.

A young man followed Hu Guiyang for a long time and came over and said, "No need to knock it. Something happened to his family. It will not be opened today. I will take you to another family and I will satisfy you."

"I'm...an acquaintance of this family."

The boy looked at him a few times and found that Hu Guiyang was not wearing the Jinyiwei official uniform, and was wearing a long robe. He looked a little bloated. He had no followers around him, and he didn't look like a rich man.

"Give me a hundred cents, I can take you in."

"I can go in just by knocking on the door, why bother spending money?"

"You are so reluctant to spend money. Why do you come to our Hutong? You have to spend ten cents, just give it to the beggar. I'll let you in now."

Hu Guiyang thought for a while and took out ten copper coins from his sleeve, "Look at how you let me in."

The boy grabbed the copper coins and shouted in a loud voice: "Let the duke, your real father will recognize you!" Then he cursed a few more harsh swear words.

Not long after, a noise came from the door, and the boy turned around and ran away, raising his hand holding the money, "Thank you, the guest."

Hu Guiyang didn't expect this way of calling the door. He was standing there in a daze. When the gate of Ren's yard opened, a young man holding a stick rushed out, wearing a green scarf. He was stunned when he saw Hu Guiyang. Then he turned his eyes and scolded and threatened in the direction of the boy's escape.

The young man ran away and disappeared. The young man put down his stick and turned to Hu Guiyang. His face was so angry that he was twisted just now that he suddenly changed into an extremely natural smile, "Personnel Hu, distinguished guest, if I had known it was you... please come in quickly."

The madam was not at home. According to the young man, she was going to find a way to avenge her daughter.

Ren Liuer lives in the building in Xiatian and changes to a warm pavilion in winter. A maid guard saw Hu Guiyang and frowned at the young man: "Sister, do you still bring customers in?"

"This is not an ordinary guest, but Captain Hu from Qian Street. He is most familiar with Sister Liuer. When he heard something happened, he came to visit him. You go and inform me that Sister Liuer would definitely see him if he didn't see anyone else."

The maid went in suspiciously and came out soon, smiling, "Brother-in-law Hu went into the house and waited for her sister to dress up before meeting her brother-in-law."

The young man smiled and stayed outside the door, and was willing to leave after receiving the reward.

Hu Guiyang touched his sleeves and found that the money he brought was far from enough for him to do anything, so he sat down and said to the maid: "Don't call me 'brother-in-law'. My surname is Hu, and I am the Captain Jinyi, but I am not here to investigate the case today..."

"Young Master Hu?" the maid smiled obediently, "My sister is in a bad mood today. She has been lying on the bed for more than a day and ignores anyone, but she just cried. When she heard that Youth Hu was coming, she immediately got up to dress up. My sister has never felt this kind of wish for others."

Hu Guiyang was right, but in the end he had no choice but to take out a few dozen cents to reward the maid.

Nearly two quarters of an hour later, Hu Guiyang was able to enter the warm pavilion, and the maid also said that Sister Liu'er's today was faster than usual.

Ren Liu'er wore a veil that blocked the dust in spring and summer, hiding her appearance. Hu Guiyang couldn't figure it out. Since this was the case, why bother to spend time on makeup, but the questions could only be hidden in his heart.

Ren Liuer sent the maid away and said directly: "You have to avenge me."

"Didn't Mama Ren go to take revenge?"

"Hmph, what can she have? It's just to go to find a few old beggars in the alley and complain together. I want to take revenge. If I touch my finger, I will pay my life."

"I don't have the ability."

"Don't you want a buyer?"

"Zhu Jiutou?" Hu Guiyang planned to be fooled.
