Da Song Private Investigator

In the Song Dynasty, yamen servants were just very small officials.

But it is this very small official who has some powers that are feared by the people all over the world. The yamen servant knows his identity very well, so he was only shocked when facing Wen Feng, and then asked arrogantly : "You kid, don't you want to live anymore?"

Wen Feng smiled coldly: "My big brother Hua is always right. He said that it is easy for him to settle this case, but it is difficult for you magistrates to settle the case!"

After hearing Wen Feng's words, the yamen servant became even more angry, and wanted to draw his sword to arrest him, but at this moment, Li Jingan suddenly stopped him, and then cupped his hands to Hua Lang, "Your surname is Hua?"

Hwarang smiled slightly, then bowed his hands and nodded in return, and inadvertently revealed the gold medal bestowed on him by the emperor.

Li Jingan is so smart. There are not many people with the surname Hua in the Song Dynasty, and even fewer are famous. The fame of Hwarang resounds throughout the Song Dynasty. Breaking out in a cold sweat, I thought to myself that it was a good thing I stopped early, otherwise I would have offended Hwarang, would it be a joke?

In fact, even if Li Jingan offended Hwarang, as long as he was a clean official, Hwarang would not do anything to him, but Li Jingan didn't know Hwarang well, so based on the past situation, he would naturally have such thoughts.

After Hualang nodded, Li Jingan suddenly smiled and said, "So it's Mr. Playboy, please, with you here, this case will definitely be solved!"

Seeing Li Jingan, the magistrate's sudden reaction, everyone couldn't help but be full of curiosity about this Hua Lang, they were all asking who this playboy was, and why the magistrate treated him so politely?

Hwarang's reputation is already well known, but how would ordinary people know about it?

After being invited by Li Jingan, Hwarang immediately followed into the Du Mansion, but after entering, Hwarang said with a smile: "I came here with a few friends just for fun, so please don't wait for me, Master Li." It’s better to expose your identity!”

Li Jingan didn't understand what kind of tricks Hwarang wanted to play, but he still nodded in agreement.

This Du Cao didn't recognize Hua Lang either, but Li Jingan treated Hua Lang so courteously, and he didn't dare to offend him. He repeatedly invited them to the place where he collected paintings and calligraphy. That place was a small courtyard in a very secluded place in Du Mansion. , The courtyard is full of weeds, it is very barren, the weeds are overgrown, attracting many flying insects, it is very annoying.

There is a house in the courtyard, the house is already mottled, obviously it has been old for a long time, Du Cao pointed to the house, and said: "Caomin hid the calligraphy and paintings inside, all adults come in with me to have a look!"

The house is full of dust, and no one has come in for a long time. Du Cao pointed to a box in the house and said, "It's here!" As Du Cao said, she leaned over and opened the box. There were basic books in the box. The ones were corroded and had a musty smell.

There were no paintings and calligraphy in the box. Du Cao looked at Li Jing'an with a bitter face and said, "Master Li, those calligraphy and paintings are worth at least tens of thousands of taels of silver. They are the last needs of the grass people to save their lives. Please, Sir Li, must help find them!"

Li Jingan was a little surprised when he heard Du Cao say this, and asked, "What kind of calligraphy and painting is that, so valuable?"

Du Cao sighed, and said: "Those calligraphy and paintings were handed down from my ancestors, and they were all paintings by Zhou Fang in the Tang Dynasty. Zhou Fang's paintings were already very famous and valuable in the Tang Dynasty. Now, let alone, some of them are even more valuable. It’s so rare!”

Hearing Du Cao mention Zhou Fang's name, Hwarang was startled. He knew a little about Zhou Fang. It is said that Guo Ziyi's uncle, Zhao Zong, once asked Han Gan and Zhou Fang to paint a portrait of him. People judge, but no one can judge good or bad, so Guo Ziyi asked his daughter, Zhao Zong's wife, to do it. After seeing it, Mrs. Zhao said that the two paintings resembled her husband, but the last one most like.

Guo Ziyi was very curious at the time, so she asked why. Mrs. Zhao pointed to the first painting and said that this painting was only very similar in appearance, while the latter one was very similar in expression and expression.

After Mrs. Zhao finished speaking, Guo Ziyi immediately sent someone to reward Zhou Fang.

This shows how good Zhou Fang's paintings are.

Now the paintings stolen from Du Cao's mansion were painted by Zhou Fang back then, so Du Cao must have suffered a great loss.

While thinking this way, Hwarang took a closer look at the room and found that there were not many marks in the room. He thought that after the thieves entered the house, they found some paintings immediately, but how could the thieves find them so quickly?

There is only one situation, and that is when Du Cao was hiding the paintings, the thieves were watching in the dark.

In other words, the thief has already lurked into Du's mansion, so who is this thief?

Is it Cui Jian?But if it was him, where did he hide the painting, wouldn't he be too stupid to just come here?

Du Cao's expression was a little gloomy. Of course, he was more regretful. He regretted why he came up with such a ghostly idea. In the end, not only did he not deceive others, but he suffered heavy losses.

Du Cao's wife, on the other hand, looked nervous and scared. She looked at Li Jingan, then at Hualang, and finally knelt down to Li Jingan, begging for mercy, "My lord, you must help find those calligraphy and paintings. , otherwise... otherwise our family will be completely ruined." Before Li Jingan could speak, Madam Du said quickly: "The thief must be that Cui Jian. Know where my husband hides his calligraphy and paintings."

When Mrs. Du said this, Cui Jian immediately retorted: "The world is a lesson, there are many famous paintings in my family, and I am not short of money, why steal your calligraphy and paintings?"

As soon as the two exchanged words, they couldn't stop. Hua Lang frowned slightly, and stopped suddenly: "Okay, you two can't solve any problems by arguing like this, so take your time!"

After Hualang finished speaking, Li Jingan repeatedly said yes, but Mrs. Du and Cui Jian didn't dare to say anything more when they saw Li Jingan, and they immediately shut up.

At this time, Li Jingan cupped his hands to Hua Lang and said, "Young Master Hua, what do you think we should do now?"

"Zhou Fang's calligraphy and paintings are very valuable. The thieves stole these calligraphy and paintings for nothing more than money. So now, Lord Li, please send people to step up the search of the city gates, and send people to investigate secretly to see if anyone wants to sell calligraphy and paintings. Those few paintings Calligraphy and paintings require a lot of money, and those who want to buy them may not be willing to sell them quickly, Lord Li can take the opportunity to investigate, of course, report the names of those calligraphy and paintings, so that no one dares to buy them, and force the bandit to venture out of the city."

After Hualang finished speaking, Li Jingan nodded in agreement, then looked at Du Cao and asked, "What are the names of those calligraphy and paintings?"
