Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 663
He Wuqi pondered for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you."

Di Renjie said: "Shopkeeper He, I have a problem with myself. I can never change what I say."

He Wuqi smiled wryly and said, "Wuqi has already learned this point."

Di Renjie said, "That's good."

He Wuqi said: "Please rest assured, sir, I will definitely settle this matter."

Di Renjie nodded lightly: "Okay, deal."

He Wuqi breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and said, "Thank you sir for your support."

Di Renjie smiled and said, "To each other."

He Wuqi said carefully: "Sir, Wuqi has one more matter."

Di Renjie said, "Let's talk."

He Wuqi said: "Tonight, sir, please be sure to come to my house for a narration. Wuqi is preparing a little wine in the back garden. Please enjoy the moon and drink it."

Di Renjie waved his hands and said, "There's no need to eat..."

He Wuqi flattered: "Sir, please give Wuqi a thin noodle."

As he said that, He Wuqi also looked at Wang Mang and Zeng Tai imploringly.

Di Renjie glanced at Wang Mang and Zeng Tai in embarrassment.

Wang Mang said with a smile: "Sir, it's rare that shopkeeper He is sincere, and there is no major event today, so let me go for a walk!"

Zeng Tai nodded: "Yes, teacher, let's go and have a look!"

He Wuqi hurriedly said: "That's right, that's right. Please, these two gentlemen..."

Wang Mang smiled and said, "My surname is Wang, Wang Jingyang."

Zeng Tai smiled: "The surname is Zeng, Zeng Tai."

He Wuqi said: "Mr. Wang, Mr. Zeng, and your entourage are invited to go with you. I am going to toast everyone and apologize."

Di Renjie glanced at Wang Mang, Zeng Tai, and He Wuqi, and nodded, "Forget it, let's settle it like this!"

He Wuqi said: "Then Wuqi will go back and prepare first."

Di Renjie said lightly, "I'll be there soon."

He Wuqi saluted respectfully and said, "Wuqi is waiting for you at home."

Di Renjie said, "No."

He Wuqi turned and walked out the door.

Seeing him walking away, Wang Mang, Di Renjie and Zeng Tai looked at each other and smiled.

Suddenly, Zeng Tai asked: "Master, we have already learned through Jing Yang that his family is Crouching Tiger Village, do we still need to know his channel?"

Wang Mang also looked at Di Renjie.

Di Renjie said: "I'm afraid things are not that simple!"

Wang Mang and Zeng Tai looked at each other, but they didn't understand what Di Renjie meant.

Di Renjie glanced at the two of them, and explained: "How much salt do they have, what channels do they trade through, and what do they use in the trade? Is it cash or..."

Di Renjie didn't say anything later.

Wang Mang nodded as if realizing something.

At this time, Zeng Tai asked: "Master, since this is the case, why didn't you take the opportunity to ask him where he extracted the private salt?"

Di Renjie glanced at Wang Mang, smiled, and said nothing.

Wang Mang explained: "Brother Zeng, acting too hastily will make him suspicious. Don't worry, he has fallen into the trap now. Even if we don't ask, he will take the initiative to tell us."

Di Renjie nodded with a smile.

……

At night, the lights in He Garden are brightly lit.

The lady is sitting in front of the bronze mirror and doing her makeup. Her left arm is hanging down due to the unhealed knife wound, so she can only use her right hand to apply decals to her temples, and her movements are very slow.

Two little maids waited beside her.

Madam said to the maid standing on the left: "Xiao Cui, help me insert the hairpin."

Xiao Cui agreed to pick up a silver hairpin from the dressing table, and inserted her hand back into the high cloud bun of Madam, accidentally touching Madam's left shoulder with her elbow.

Madam "Ouch", trembling with pain.

Xiao Cui was so frightened that she quickly fell to her knees: "My maidservant is clumsy, she really deserves to be beaten, grandma please punish her!"

Madam forced a smile and said: "You are also unintentional, get up!"

Xiaocui said, "Thank you grandma."

As he spoke, he stood up and carefully inserted the silver hairpin into his wife's bun.

Chun'er came in and said, "Ma'am, the guests have arrived, sir, please go to the back garden immediately."

Madam nodded and said: "Understood, come on, Chun'er, come and insert the hairpin for me."

Chun'er hurried over, picked up the hairpin rings on the dressing table and inserted them one by one for his wife.

At the same time, Wang Mang, Di Renjie and his party, accompanied by He Wuqi and housekeeper He Jing, walked slowly along the Qushui Corridor to the back garden.

Wang Mang, Di Renjie and others walked and admired the scene in the garden, and said with a smile, "What an elegant garden!"

Di Renjie nodded: "Yes, Qushui wanders, pavilions are scattered, shopkeeper He, I didn't expect you to have a little bit of love in your chest."

He Wuqi humbly apologized and said with a smile: "Mr. let me laugh, this garden was designed by my wife."

Di Renjie said: "Oh? Presumably Mrs. Zun is the daughter of everyone."

He Wuqi expressed a little interest and said: "Exactly. Gujiayue was once a famous local salt merchant, and my wife has been proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child."

Di Renjie and Wang Mang looked at each other, they nodded and said, "No wonder, that's how it is."

He Wuqi said: "In a while, my wife and Wuqi will also hold the lamp for my husband."

Di Renjie smiled and said, "I dare not take it."

Wang Mang and Zeng Tai looked at each other without speaking.

While talking, several people walked into the Huxin Pavilion along the corridor.

There were three tables of sumptuous banquets in the pavilion, Mrs. He and Chun'er were already waiting in the pavilion, and when she saw Di Renjie arriving with Wang Mang, Zeng Tai and others, Mrs. He rushed to meet them.

He Wuqi introduced: "Mr. Huai, this is my wife, Mrs. Li. Ma'am, this is the honored guest tonight, Huaiying, Mr. Huai."

Di Renjie nodded with a smile.

Mrs. Li bowed her knees and saluted, "Mr. Huai, I am very polite."

Di Renjie hurriedly said: "Huaiying dare not be that."

Then, He Wuqi pointed to Wang Mang and said, "This is Wang Jingyang, Mr. Wang."

Wang Mang nodded with a smile.

Mrs. Li bowed her knees and saluted, "Mr. Wang!"

Wang Mang hurriedly said, "Madam, don't be too polite!"

After He Wuqi introduced Zeng Tai and Lu Jiying one by one, everyone sat down.

Di Renjie, Wang Mang, Zeng Tai, and Lu Jiying sat at the head, and He Wuqi and his wife accompanied the prime minister below.

Accompanied by He Jing, Di Chun, Zhang Huan and others sat at another table.

He Wuqi held up his wine glass and said, "Wuqi acted recklessly and recklessly, and I apologize to everyone here."

Di Renjie waved his hand and said, "Hey, shopkeeper He, don't bring up this matter again. From now on, you and I will be devoted to each other and work together."

As he spoke, he also picked up his wine glass and said to everyone, "Let's drink this glass together."

Wang Mang glanced at everyone, and he and everyone echoed in unison and drank a toast.

At this moment, Wang Mang put down his wine glass and glanced casually at Mrs. He opposite. He found that everyone was holding the glass with both hands, only her left arm was lowered, holding the glass with her right hand to drink, and he couldn't help feeling a little surprised.

At this time, Di Renjie's eyes happened to be looking at Mrs. He's left arm.

The eyes of Wang Mang and Di Renjie met in the air, and there was a hint of surprise in their eyes.
