Touring the Ming Dynasty

When Duan Fei came to Huichun Hall, it didn't take much effort for Su Rong to agree to go home with him. Maid, she will go home with her master sooner or later. Besides, this is indeed a good opportunity. , to give Su Rong a good chance to show her face.

The two of them were not in a hurry to go home, but walked around the street and bought Su Rong new clothes and accessories from head to toe with the money returned from Huichuntang. The things didn't cost a few taels of silver, and the maids, of course, can't use too good things.

After returning home to dress up and come out, Su Rong already looked like a pretty maid. She stood aside when Duan Fei was drinking with her brothers and added wine for everyone. Duan Fei and the others were so bored playing cards, she took a cattail fan Gently fanning the cool wind for Duan Fei.

Under the envious eyes of everyone, Duan Fei turned his head and said to Su Rong with concern: "Rong'er, you are not in good health yet, it's better not to work hard and go to rest."

Su Rong pursed her lips and smiled, "Young Master, don't worry, I'm almost fine."

What Su Rong suffered was an internal injury, she only needs to recover by [-]-[-]% to be like a normal person, and the rest can be recuperated slowly.

I only heard Shi Bin say quietly: "Brother Fei, I'm really envious of you now..."

"Haha..." Duan Fei laughed loudly, and looked at Su Rong, but saw that she was also laughing, and there was an indescribable beauty in her eyes.

As night fell, the front of Duan Fei's mansion was very lively, only the rumbling sound of firecrackers was heard, a ladder was set up in front of the door, and several servants hung up the plaque that Master Zhang had just sent, and then Duan Fei stepped on the ladder to cover it The silk cloth on the plaque was lifted up, and the two golden characters of "Duanfu" danced in dragons and phoenixes, and the applause sounded like thunder...

Ma Wentao, the magistrate, smiled and said to Duan Fei, "Congratulations to Mr. Duan on moving to his new home, and this old man will send you a hundred taels of silver to congratulate..."

"Congratulations on opening the government..."

"Congratulations on opening the house..."

Officials followed Mr. Ma's footsteps into Duan's mansion. Wedding invitations and red envelopes were stuffed into Duan Fei's hands. This... everything was reversed and messed up. What will happen if they know the truth, climb high and fall miserably, this point is very clear to Duan Fei, only by walking steadily up one by one can they walk safely.

But it's useless to say anything now. With a stiff smile on Duan Fei's face, he greeted batch after batch of guests he couldn't afford to offend. He didn't know that the officials of the Ming Dynasty were ashamed until his feet were numb and his hands were shaking. That's a lot...

After entering the Duan Mansion, the adults couldn't help praising them, and they were quite envious. You must know that Ying Tian Mansion is the accompanying capital of Ming Dynasty, the house price is very high, and the living expenses are also very high. Even if the officials are corrupt and accept bribes, most of them can't afford it Even if you can afford the mansion, you may not dare to buy it. You must know that it is very eye-catching. If the officials of Yushitai know about it, it is strange that they don’t join forces to impeach you for corruption.

This also made these officials sure in their hearts that Duan Fei has a background. They didn't know that Duan Fei's original intention was just to make a profit by buying and selling. Now that everyone knows that this is Duan's mansion, it may not be so easy to sell in the future.

At present, Duan Fei held a big banquet in honor of the officials who came to congratulate him. At the banquet, Duan Fei didn't dare to show a little pride, but he seemed a little reserved. It was Mr. Ma, the magistrate, and Mr. Zhang, the general judge, who greeted everyone for him. Son, talking humorously, talking and laughing, greeted a messy banquet in every possible way.

Huang Suliang's performance was also good. He talked a lot about his business experience at the banquet. Everyone heard him say that the house only cost 5 taels of silver, and everyone regretted it. If I knew it, everyone would go to speculate on land.

At the end of the banquet, the Duan Mansion finally calmed down. Duan Fei saw off the last group of guests. He was more exhausted than participating in a triathlon, and his head was dizzier than after drinking two catties of Erguotou.

Don't say anything, Su Rong helped Duan Fei into the room, Duan Fei didn't take a bath, fell asleep on the bed, he was also drunk a lot today, even though he said he had a drink beforehand In the middle, I went to the toilet to induce vomiting a few times, but there were too many guests, and it would kill people to have a drink one by one.

The next day, Duan Fei slept until noon before being woken up by Su Rong's impatient knock on the door. He had a splitting headache. After he got dressed, he called Su Rong in. Su Rong brought him a cup of hangover tea and said, " Young Master, Lord Ma sent someone to send a few files, saying that you should take a look at it at home today, and you don’t need to go to the yamen to report.”

"This old boy is really good at employing people." Duan Fei groaned and said, "I'm not feeling well right now. I asked the kitchen to boil me a bucket of hot water. I want to take a bath."

"Yes..." Su Rong asked, "My lord, do you want to eat lunch first or take a bath first?"

"Take a bath first." Duan Fei said impatiently, rubbing his temples.

Su Rong backed out, and Duan Fei fell on the bed again. After a while, two servants knocked on the door and came in, carrying a big wooden bucket, and then poured buckets of hot water into it. This was not quite what Duan Fei thought. Same.

I only heard Su Rong say outside the door: "My lord, do you want to ask two maids to come in and wipe your body?"

Duan Fei hurriedly said: "No, no, I can wash it myself. Where are my clothes? And towels, bring them here. No one is allowed to come in while I am taking a shower, otherwise the family law will take care of me!"

"Yes, son..." Su Rong replied softly, just hearing her tone, why did she seem to be smiling?

After taking a bath, his mind became clearer, at least the pain was gone, and his stomach was full again. Shi Bin and the others went to play cards by themselves, but Duan Fei came to the study and began to check the files sent to him by Ma Zhifu. Life is hard... …

The cases Ma Zhifu threw to Duan Fei were all small cases, but some small cases were even more difficult to handle than big cases, especially after the delay, such cases were even more difficult.

Just like the robbery dispute case encountered by the magistrate of Min County that day, if it had not been resolved on the spot, that case could almost be concluded to be a fatal case, and the cases Duan Fei has got now are similar.

For example, a farmer from outside the city entered the city to sell geese, and had a dispute with a certain restaurant, and sued the restaurant for cheating him of a goose. I'm really confused, after a few days of delay, all the evidence is gone, and I can still distinguish clearly.

There are disputes between neighbors, cases of theft at home, etc., which have dragged on for at least ten days. These cases are even more difficult to solve than the serial cases without corpses in Hai'an Town. In Hai'an, you can wait for the murderer to continue killing. Or open the coffin for autopsy, these small cases will have no clues once the time passes.

After reading the case file, Duan Fei still had no clue, so he simply put aside these annoying things and went out to play.

In the evening, Duan Fei looked back at those cases carefully, but gradually he had some ideas in his mind. When he was deliberating and deconstructing each case, he suddenly heard a light knock on the door. He looked up and said, "You haven't rested yet." Ah, come in."

Su Rong put a bowl of things on it: "My lord, you haven't rested yet. How can I, a maid, rest first? I asked the kitchen to boil a bowl of lotus seed soup. You can try it, my lord."
