Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 146
Like the layout of most high-end brothels, this Qin Pavilion is also arranged as a patio when entering the door, but the ceiling is made of bamboo poles and oilcloth, and then the roof is hung and lanterns are hung to make a closed shed.

On the first floor, there is a screen seat under the entrance, which is the hall. After the guests come in, they drink tea and listen to music here. If it is really for dignitaries, well-known musicians are invited to play, which is quite elegant.

The second floor is the private room, where guests drink and have fun. If you want to be lively, you can see the hall below by opening the window, which is also a fun.

The same is true for the Qin Pavilion, but it was already dark, and the people who came here for fun had no temper to listen to the music in the hall, and the guests were either messing around in the back, or drinking and having fun in the private room.

Below, Lu Wancai was confronting Mama Song tit for tat, before he uttered threatening words, but when he heard an angry shout from the second floor, Lu Wancai was taken aback, and then raised his head suddenly.

At some point, a window on the second floor was opened, and a person leaned on the window sill to look at it. After all, it was night, and the lights were intentionally dimmed. Lu Wancai raised his head to look over, but couldn't see clearly.

"It's really disrespectful to come here to mess around in the Qin Pavilion!!"

There was another yell, and then the person turned around, Lu Wancai heard the voice clearly this time, this person could really train him, it was his immediate superior, Chen Zhizhong, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Mansion.

Lu Wancai cursed secretly in his heart, he heard the sound of the sound of the stair boards, and Fu Cheng Chen Zhizhong had already run up from there, this Chen Fu Cheng was naturally dressed in casual clothes, walked up to Lu Wancai quickly, and pointed at Lu Wancai's nose scolded:
"Who asked you to come, and who gave you the text for you to seize..."

The shaking fingers were about to poke his face, so Lu Wancai took a step back, suppressed the anger in his heart, and clasped his fists to report:
"Fu Zun, four servants in our government office have been detained by this yard, and the subordinates are here to demand someone."

"Yo~~~ Master Lu can't talk like that. Those gangsters came up and asked Qin Guan to buy a wooden sign with a few thousand taels of silver. The slave family also felt weird. This must be a gangster pretending to be a servant to blackmail money. Let them ruin the reputation of Shuntian Mansion, and then let the son below arrest people, and they are waiting to send them to Shuntian Mansion tomorrow!"

Lu Wancai stared, and was about to scold, but Chen Zhizhong turned his head and said with a smile:

"Mother Song thinks so much about Shuntian Mansion, Mr. Chen must explain it to Mr. Fu Yin, and thank Mother Song for her consideration!"

Hearing the two people's exchange, Lu Wancai's heart immediately turned cold. Sure enough, Chen Zhizhong's expression became cold again, and he shouted in a deep voice:
"Didn't you hear Song's mother say that she is a bandit? Why are you still pestering me here? Do whatever you want!"

"Fu Zun, there are indeed four guards from the Fu Ya who were detained here. It is a guard who came with him to report to the low-ranking officer. This is beyond doubt. This old bustard is full of nonsense, my lord..."

"Shut up!! How can someone like Madam Song talk nonsense? Even if it's an officer in our mansion who blatantly extorts money, the official will have to be dismissed and questioned. Lu Tong judges, you won't be promoted soon , Don't be confused, so as not to delay your future, hurry up, don't delay the business of the Qin Pavilion!"

Every statement made by Lu Wancai was blocked by the Prime Minister Chen Zhizhong. After all, he was his own Shangguan. Even though he had suffered recently, he was still a Shangguan. Lu Wancai did not dare to speak back. He hesitated for a long time, took a few deep breaths and clasped his fists and said:

"Fu Zun, maybe there is a misunderstanding on this matter, how about asking the humble officer to take those four servants back for discipline?"

This is already convinced, Chen Zhizhong showed a satisfied expression on his face, turned to look at Mother Song, the young woman's face became a little cold at this time, and she said sternly:
"Officials and officials protect each other, who knows what will happen, there are such a group of villains in the city, I don't know how many colleagues they have blackmailed, my family must send these gangsters to the yamen, and ask the governor to deal with them. If you don't give an account, the slave family Just go to the Ministry of Punishments to beat the drums, and we must give justice."

The folding fan in Lu Wancai's hand slammed on the table next to him, pointed at Song's mother and shouted angrily:
"You mother-in-law, I promote the safety brand for the safety of my colleagues, and the officer is also sent by me to say hello. You are so cynical and sarcastic, do you still have Wang Fa in your eyes..."

After speaking halfway, he was interrupted by Chen Zhizhong who was beside him. Chen Zhizhong glanced at Mother Song's face and shouted in a cold voice:
"What's the sign of safety? Why haven't I heard of it as a Fucheng? If you continue to mess around here, Lu Wancai, I will come to the Ben to join you tomorrow. Even the Fuyin will not spare you. Get out of here." go out!!"

Mother Song put a smile on her face again, and looked at Lu Wancai leisurely from the sidelines. The originally quiet hall became noisy. Many windows on the second floor were pushed open, and many people looked down again. Accompanied by a fan, pointing and laughing.

"Master Chen stands up for righteousness and decides for the people!!"

I don't know who still yelled loudly, and kept deflated. With the surrounding situation, Lu Wancai's black face turned purple, he opened and closed his mouth to say something but nothing came out, and in the end he just clasped his fists, turned his head and left.

"Master Lu, since you came last time, the girls in the Qin Pavilion have been thinking about you! Do you want to go up and take care of me and discuss it!!"

The gracious greeting from the Song mother came from behind, and the second floor and the lobby of the Qin Pavilion immediately roared with laughter. Lu Wancai was extremely ashamed and angry, and his footsteps became faster and faster.

But Wang Si and Li Gui didn't follow in. Seeing their boss come out with a dark face and laughing loudly behind him, they all knew that the matter was not done. Before they went up to ask, they heard Lu Wancai gritted his teeth and said:
"Let's go, let's go back to Mr. Wang and let him vent our anger on us."

****
"Brother Wang, Lu has been an official for nearly 20 years since he was promoted, and he has never been so angry. If he doesn't let this breath out, his heart and lungs will explode!"

When Lu Wancai returned to Wang Tong's house, those people brought by Wang Tong hadn't left yet. When Lu Wancai came to his own place, all the anger he received in the Qin Pavilion immediately exploded.

Wang Tong stood up and poured him a cup of tea, said with a smile:

"Brother Lu has worked hard this time, drink a sip of tea to calm down, and tell the story of what happened in the Qin Pavilion from beginning to end."

This cup of tea was first to quench their thirst, and second, it was a way to express their gratitude. Both Wang Tong and Lu Wancai knew that this time Lu Wancai went to take the lead, and it was nothing more than to find out the details of the other party and see who was behind the other party.

Lu Wancai drank tea and began to talk. Wang Tong listened intently. After he finished speaking, Wang Tong pondered for a while but didn't ask any questions. He turned to General Tan who was beside him and said:

"Call all the dozen or so people over there tomorrow!"

General Tan agreed, and then Wang Tong asked:
"Brother Lu, Chancellor Chen Zhizhong is also considered a role in Shuntian Mansion, what kind of god can make him so hard to curry favor?"

"It's hard to say, Shuntian Mansion in the capital is a place that suffers from splints, and all gods have to curry favor."

"How long has the Qin Pavilion been open?"

"We need to check the background of this. It used to be a good place, but the name is not as big as it is today..."

Lu Wancai spoke hesitantly, and Li Gui next to him added:

"The reputation only came up in the past three months. The old man who is in charge of purchasing money and food in the yamen is familiar with the young man. He likes these places the most."

Wang Tong nodded, raised three fingers and said:
"There should be a big boss behind this Qin Pavilion. This is one. This big boss has not been famous for a long time. This is the second. The words of 'villains blackmail colleagues' should show that this Qin Pavilion is not impulsive. It’s that we have planned it long ago, I’m afraid our people will suffer from this dark loss when they come in the morning and evening!”

After the analysis, everyone nodded, Wang Tong stood up and took a few steps, and said again:
"All the helpers outside the city are mobilized into the city, Wang Si, Li Gui, how many people can you pull out to fight, whether they are on duty or not?"

"... Dozens of idlers can always call out..."

"Okay, call everyone, the official who should spend the money will pay the money, and tomorrow morning I will find out who is behind the Qin Pavilion?"

Hearing what Wang Tong said, Lu Wan, who had already calmed down, hesitated for a while, and stood up and said:
"Brother Wang, I'm afraid there are some great people behind a courtyard of this level in the capital. The four guards who were detained were nothing more than suffering. When they were sent to the Yamen, the next thing to do would be to offend the big man for such things. , then it won’t make it.”

Wang Tong laughed out loud, waved his hand and said:

"I went to find out if I was afraid of anyone, but to clarify. Now the Qin Pavilion has made it clear that we are going to give us a bad name. If we bite our teeth and suffer this loss, then there is no need to expect to push down the other safe signs. Besides, give us If you lose my Wang Tong's popularity, then you must get it back ten times."

After hearing this, Lu Wancai, Wang Si, and Li Gui didn't know what to answer. It was Lu Wancai who took the lead, and the three prostrated.

****
The next morning, it was a coincidence, because nearly 300 people were taken from the palace, and this vacancy needs to be replaced as soon as possible. Zou Yi led the people from the East Factory to the Huwei Martial Arts Hall early in the morning, and went directly to the city. Wai Ci'en Temple went to select eunuchs.

Without Dongchang's support, it was really difficult for Wang Tong to find out who was behind the Qin Pavilion. Wang Tong simply ignored it and led Tan Jiang and Li Wenyuan to walk around the Qin Pavilion in the morning.

At noon, Zhang Shiqiang inquired about other news, "Several big gambling houses and brothels in Xicheng and Nancheng have joined forces. If Qin Guan can stand up to the Ping An brand, from now on, Qin Guan will be the leader and share dividends." .

After spending an ordinary afternoon in the Tiger Mighty Martial Arts Hall, Wang Tong went home to wipe himself off, changed into a long gown, Shi Shiran went out, and it was getting dark gradually.
