Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 484
"So that's the case, Brother Li's meticulous observation and thoughtfulness are really admirable!" Conan praised sincerely.

Li Canghai's eyes turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Wenyuan is a man of deep scheming, and he is by no means as kind as he appears on the surface. Regarding the matter of the Lin family, we have no direct evidence. If we want to take him down, we must find relevant evidence. evidence."

Conan nodded, and pondered: "So, you deliberately created the 'Seven Stars', so that you can stay here for a few more days and take the opportunity to look for evidence?"

Li Canghai smiled indifferently, and said: "Brother Conan's eyes are like a torch, so he has seen through my little thoughts. However, thanks to Brother Conan's cooperation, Zhang Wenyuan let us stay."

Conan smiled and said: "I just played some assistance. The main reason is that Brother Li accurately grasped Zhang Wenyuan's psychology of wanting an heir. His huge family business, if there is no heir to inherit it, it will decline. So, even if he was skeptical about what Brother Li said, he would take it as a fluke and leave us behind."

Li Canghai smiled slightly, and said, "Brother Conan also knows me."

The two laughed for a while, then walked towards the courtyard in the southeast.

When Li Canghai said that there was a bloody disaster, Zhang Wenyuan subconsciously looked to the southeast, which meant that something must have happened in the courtyard in the southeast.

Before they came to the courtyard, the two saw that the gate of the courtyard was locked tightly, and the courtyard wall was covered with half-green vines, which seemed quite desolate and felt a bit out of place with the whole garden.

"Brother Li, this yard seems to have been abandoned for a long time!" Conan said, looking at the rusty iron lock on the gate.

Li Canghai nodded. The arched gate of this courtyard was locked, and the vermilion paint on the gate was peeled off. It could be seen that no one had come here for a long time.

"Brother Li, what are your plans?" Conan asked.

Li Canghai looked up at the sun and said, "It's already noon, and it's time for us to go to the banquet."

Conan nodded, then pushed him and walked towards the Wind Listening Pavilion in the middle of the lake.

A banquet had already been set up in the Tingfeng Pavilion at this time, besides Zhang Wenyuan, there were several people sitting in the pavilion.

"The two gentlemen are here. I just want my servant to invite you!" Zhang Wenyuan stood up quickly when he saw the two coming, and said politely.

"Mr. Zhang is being too polite. I'm sorry for keeping him waiting for a long time." Li Canghai clasped his fists.

After the two sat down, Zhang Wenyuan smiled and said, "What are you two gentlemen talking about. Oh, by the way, let me introduce you, this is a merchant from Dongying, his name is Ueda Takashi, and he is my business partner."

Li Canghai looked at this person, he was about thirty years old, with a thin body, his eyes were full, and he looked like a profiteer.

"Ueda Takashi, I have met two immortal elders. I just heard from Brother Zhang that the two immortal elders are proficient in immortal arts, so I am here to ask for advice. I hope that the two immortal elders will not hesitate to give me advice!" Ueda Takashi bowed his hands to the two road.

Li Canghai smiled indifferently, and said: "I don't dare to teach you, the two of us only know a little bit."

Ueda Takashi waved his hand and said, "Hey, you can't say that. Since the two immortal elders have unique skills, why don't you let me see them for you? When Xiayuan was in Dongying, I heard that most of the people in the Central Plains are capable people and strange people. , if you can see it with your own eyes, it’s not in vain to come to the Central Plains, right?”

Zhang Wenyuan stared at Li Canghai for a while, stroked his beard and said, "Mr. Li, since Brother Ueda wants to see the immortal art, why not show him."

Li Canghai frowned slightly, and after hesitating for a while, he sighed and said, "Since all the members have said it, if I refuse, it would seem that I don't understand etiquette."

Ueda Takashi chuckled and said, "Then I'll just wait and see."

Li Canghai looked at Ueda Takashi, and said calmly: "Your Excellency spent last night in the 'Red Pink Pavilion' in Yangzhou City, and found two girls, but someone stole his purse, so you are considered a tyrant." I was beaten up for dinner. I didn’t come here until noon, didn’t I?”

When Ueda Takashi heard this, his expression changed slightly.

However, everyone knew that Ueda Takashi's face changed slightly, which meant that Li Canghai was right.

"Is there really fairy art in this world? Can you know the past and the future?" Everyone was surprised.

Ueda Takashi and Li Canghai had never met before, how did he know about Ueda Takashi?

"Brother Ueda, you were beaten by someone? It's unreasonable, this 'Red Pink Pavilion' is so courageous! Don't worry, Brother Ueda, I will teach the old bustard of 'Red Pink Pavilion' a lesson and make her kneel down and apologize to you! Zhang Wenyuan said with his eyes wide open.

Ueda Takashi grinned in embarrassment, gave Li Canghai a hard look, and then sat down sullenly.

Zhang Wenyuan laughed, and said, "Sir, you can know the past and the future, amazing! Amazing!"

Li Canghai bowed slightly, and said: "Small tricks, not worth mentioning, made the outsiders laugh."

Zhang Wenyuan smiled, pointed at the other person, and said, "This is Yu Chengen, the elder brother of my newly adopted Fifth Aunt."

The man bowed his fists to Li Canghai and Conan, and said, "Yu Chengen has seen the two elders."

Li Canghai sized up Yu Chengen. This person looked two years younger than Li Canghai, but he had a face like a crown of jade and was extremely handsome. He held a folding fan in his hand and looked like a handsome young man .

Li Canghai cupped his fists at him and said, "Brother Yu, you're welcome."

Zhang Wenyuan stroked his beard and said with a chuckle: "Sir, don't look down on Cheng En because he is young. Cheng En is a master of famous teachers. He is good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."

Speaking of this, Zhang Wenyuan squinted his eyes and said: "Cheng En, it's rare to see the fairy head, why don't you take the opportunity to ask the fairy head for advice?"

When Yu Chengen heard the words, he bowed slightly to Li Canghai and said, "Cheng'en has made a fool of himself, and I hope that Immortal Elder will not hesitate to enlighten me."

"Brother Li, Zhang Wenyuan is deliberately testing your abilities!" Conan said in a low voice.

Li Canghai nodded expressionlessly, looked at Yu Chengen and said, "I don't know what brother Yu wants to compare?"

Yu Chengen asked someone to bring a pen and paper, then picked up the Langhao pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote a big character 'Tao' on the rice paper.

"Good word!" Zhang Wenyuan couldn't help applauding repeatedly.

Li Canghai looked at the character 'Tao', clapped his hands and said, "Brother Yu is so young, it is really rare that this calligraphy is so accomplished. This character is as graceful as a bird, as graceful as a dragon, and it has the style of Wang Youjun. It is wonderful. , wonderful, wonderful!"

Yu Chengen bowed slightly, and said humbly: "The Immortal Elder has praised me a lot, and I hope that the Immortal Elder will not hesitate to enlighten me."

Li Canghai smiled lightly, then picked up the pen, and wrote the word 'Tao' on the paper casually.

However, Li Canghai's writing is crooked and has no aesthetic feeling. Compared with Yu Chengen, it is very different.

Which is good and which is bad, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
