Chapter 534 Scholar(1/2)

Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang went to Fuxian Tower before noon.

Fuxianlou is also a very famous place in Kaifeng. It is between the Qinlou and the brothel. The Qinki and Songgi in the building are all talented and beautiful, and most of the guests who come and go are either rich or noble.

Fuxian Tower is a business run by people in the martial arts world. The boss is Song Fusheng, the owner of Fuxian Hall. Although Zhan Zhao and others have no friendship with him, they have no grudges. Fuxian Hall is a very ordinary sect. Today's sects have to be rich and have people, especially emerging sects, who are mostly doing some business.

The main hall of Fuxian Hall is in Hangzhou Prefecture and has left Fengyuan, so Song Fusheng should not be in charge here.

Zhan Zhaohe Baiyutang walked to the gate of Fuxian Tower.

Kaifeng is an imperial city after all, and the emperor must be somewhat grand whether you are a piano building or a brothel. Therefore, in front of the building, there are no messy people who can attract customers, except for the magnificent door frames and signs.

Zhan Zhao asked Bai Yutang, "Have you been here?"

Bai Yutang shook his head.

Zhan Zhao hugged his arms and looked back and forth, "I'm on the same street as Bai Mansion!"

Bai Yutang was funny, "This street is long, and the Bai Mansion is far away from here."

Zhan Zhao photographed him, "The legend is that you are not romantic in the world?"

Bai Yutang looked at the sky, "It is said that you are still wearing a tiger's back and a bear's waist."

Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes.

The two entered the gate of Fuxian Tower, and a friend came out. He looked up and was stunned. While asking the two of them inside, he winked at the other guys behind him.

A guy hurried upstairs.

After a while, a decent middle-aged man in gray clothes ran down from the upper floor, "Disple Guest!"

The guy hurriedly told Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang, "This is our shopkeeper Liu."

Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang nodded.

After all, Fuxianlou is a big deal, and all the guys here are ghosts. Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang will never come to listen to the piano. What's more, Zhan Zhao is wearing an official uniform, probably to investigate a case. At this time, what should be done is to call the shopkeeper quickly, and then don't say anything extra.

The shopkeeper politely led Zhan Showa Bai Yutang upstairs and spoke to a place with few people.

Of course, there were still many guests in the lobby on the ground floor, all of whom were looking at the two curiously.

Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang took a brief observation and found a strange place - most of the guests in Fuxian Tower were scholars, many of them were wearing student robes, and most of them were from Qiankun Academy.

Zhan Zhao asked Manager Liu curiously, "Does the students from Qiankun Academy often come?"

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, "Yes, because he is close, he often comes."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other. The shopkeeper seemed to be old and had no extra words. It would probably be difficult to ask what to ask.

Manager Liu led the two to a private room on the second floor and asked the client to serve tea. He asked them to sit down and asked, "Do you two listen to the piano?"

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, pointed to the seat opposite, signaled to the shopkeeper and sat down.

The shopkeeper sat down.

Zhan Zhao said, "I want to ask the shopkeeper for personal information."

The shopkeeper nodded.

"Is there a girl named Yuan'er in your Fuxian Building?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"Yes, there are two girls named Yuan'er in my building, one is Zhu Yuan'er and the other is Shen Yuan'yuan. Which one are you looking for?"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, and who knew what Yuan'er's surname was, so Zhan Zhao said, "Yao Shanshui's confidante."

"Oh, that's Zhu Yuan'er. We call her Xiao Yuan'er here." Manager Liu said, asking, "Can I ask, what do you guys do to her?"

Zhan Zhao said, "I found some clues recently when I investigated the case, which was related to this girl, so I wanted to ask her a few words alone."

The shopkeeper nodded, and understood that Zhan Zhao wanted to see Zhu Yuan'er alone, so he didn't need him to be by the side, so he got up and said, "Wait, I'll call her."

When the others left, the two of them turned to drink tea while waiting.

Bai Yutang picked up the teacup and sniffed it, put it down, "It's good tea."

Zhan Zhao held his chin and looked at the guests entering and leaving the Fuxian Building downstairs, and asked Bai Yutang, "Ask you something."

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows to look at him.

"There are many good shops and many people on this street, but why don't Pang Yu and the others come here?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled. "I discovered when I patrolled the streets before. Isn't this area belonging to the east of the city? It's actually as lively as the city, but the descendants of those officials rarely come here. Pang Yu is now calm. In the past, I saw that he often went to play in Tianxiang Garden, Yifeng Pavilion and the like, but I never saw him coming to the east of the city."

When Bai Yutang was said by Zhan Zhao, he felt that this seemed to be true, and he had never paid much attention to this.

Just as I was thinking about how to answer, a pretty voice from outside came, "People who can play in the city will naturally not come to the east of the city. If you have money in the east, you can come, but if you have money, you can get there. It's like Qiankun Academy and the Taixue. The former can get there if you have money, but the latter can get there if you have money! But those who have ability can get there even if you don't have money, so the one in the front is much more expensive than the one in the back!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at the door and thought to himself that this girl was very erotic.

Before I saw anyone, I smelled a faint fragrance first. Bai Yutang identified it. It was the best fragrance, not the powder fragrance.

At this time, a petite girl wearing a light pink dress and holding a fancy round fan in her hand, walked in slowly.

Behind her were two maids, one holding a pipa and the other holding a piano.

The girl looked at her twenties, beautiful and charming, and she was not as good as an ordinary singer Qin Ji. When Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang went upstairs, she also discovered that the girl in Fuxian Tower was indeed not the appearance and temperament of a woman in the fireworks land. Master Wang said that everyone here is selling her skills but not her body, and that's probably what happened.

After Zhu Yuan'er came in, she told Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang a blessing, sat opposite them, held her chin and began to look at the two of them, and said, "Oh, I'm telling me to see the real person! When Manager Liu came to call, the girls in the building were almost jealous."

Zhan Zhao laughed, "I am a magistrate, so it may not be a good thing to look for you."

Zhu Yuaner spread her hands and said, "What am I afraid of? I am just an ordinary woman. Oh... Is it because I have such a good person to cause trouble?"

"You said Yao Shanshui?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Zhu Yuan'er shook the round suffix and nodded, "Who else can you tell me, has he provoked another wife and concubine?"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other - it seemed that Yao Shanshui was quite worry-free.

Zhan Zhao looked at the round fan in Zhu Yuaner's hand. This one seemed to be embroidered with high-quality silk and the pattern was a picture of a lady.

So Zhan Zhao asked, "Does Miss Zhu have many round fans?"

Zhu Yuan'er was stunned and nodded.

A maid behind her was helping to light incense, and interrupted, "My lady loves to collect round fans, there are a total of thousands."

"Did you buy all the fans?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"Most of them were sent by customers, and the mountains and rivers gave me a lot." Zhu Yuan'er was curious, "Do you two have anything to do with the fan?"

Zhan Zhao said, "Am there any strange girls' fans? For example, the tricks are from monsters?"

Zhu Yuan'er was stunned for a moment, holding her chin for a while, "I don't remember this..." As she said that, she said to the two maids, "Go and carry the box where I put the round fan."

The maid nodded and ran out.

After a while, the maid came back, followed by four servants, carried two big boxes and put them in the room.

The maids opened the boxes.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang couldn't help but frown - how many fans should be here.

Zhu Yuan'er opened the food box and served the snacks. She asked the two maids to take out the fan and read it handful to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang.

So Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang had no choice but to drink tea, eat snacks, and watch the round fan.

Miss Zhu didn't know what she liked. She couldn't even see the many fans, and she had all the paintings. Some of them were quite a bit like that. In the words of the academy master, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were quite embarrassed to see it.

Finally, a fan finally appeared in front of Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, and the two of them pointed at the same time - this one!

The maid handed the fan to Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang took a closer look - That's right! On the fan, there was the portrait of the three-headed golden Tuo! It was exactly the same as the huge golden sculpture dug out from the West Mountain!

Zhan Zhao asked Zhu Yuaner, "Where did this fan come from?"

Zhu Yuan'er took it over and looked at it, saying, "Oh... this fan was given by a customer."

"What kind of guest?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Zhu Yuan'er seemed to look embarrassed and said, "I don't know what his name is, so he came to drink a drink. After listening to me playing the piano, he chatted with me a few words. Then the next day he suddenly came again, saying that he heard that I had collected the round fan, so he took this hand to me, saying that he drew it himself."

Bai Yutang looked at the pattern on the fan and it was quite well drawn. It seemed that he was a literati."

"How long ago did it happen?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"That's been several years ago! There's been a person four or five years, and he has never been there again.

Zhan Zhao felt strange, "Following the number of fans, there should be many people giving girls a round fan. This fan was given several years ago, but you remember clearly... Is that person special?"

Zhu Yuan'er smiled slightly, "Of course it's special! Because that's the only student from Imperial College!"

Zhan Zhao was stunned.

Bai Yutang also frowned, "Is the one who gave you a fan to me? Is it a student of the Imperial Academy?"

Zhu Yuaner nodded, "There are basically no students from Fuxianlou who come to Fuxianlou, so I remember it very clearly.

"What are his characteristics?" Zhan Zhao asked Zhu Yuaner to describe the student.

"I just look like an ordinary student, and I look pretty... By the way, he has a Jiangnan accent." Zhu Yuan'er recalled, "That day, many guests were sitting listening to the piano. He looked inconspicuous at all, and I didn't pay much attention to him. But when he came to give me a fan the next day, he wore a robe from the Imperial Academy. Not only did I remember it, but many sisters also remember it."

Zhan Zhao asked Zhu Yuaner to describe the student in detail, but since it happened four or five years ago, the student no longer studied in the Imperial Academy, so he had to ask the Masters later, not knowing if there would be any clues.

Zhan Zhao asked curiously again, "What do you mean by saying before, if you can't come to the east of the city if you are in the city?"
