Chapter 84 A distinguished guest arrives (Subscribe)

"Master Fan, the Marquis doesn't want to see outsiders." Outside the gate of Marquis Shenwu, Fan Xian rushed over after learning that Shen Qingzhou had returned home.

Fan Xian has been in high spirits during this period. Although he has only met Lin Wan'er twice, he and she already know that they are the ones that the other has been thinking about.

However, he did not give up on the assassination. Teng Zijing was in a coma. Every time he saw him, he could not forget this incident, especially when he saw the look in Teng Zijing's wife's eyes, which was full of guilt.

He didn't know what Shen Qingzhou meant by keeping Si Lili in prison, and there was no result. What was he waiting for? He couldn't delay this matter for much longer.

He had been to the Six Gates more than once, but had never entered. He also wanted to find Marquis Shenwu, but the other party also refused to see him.

He had never thought of breaking in by force. Not to mention that Shenwu Hou was a well-known ninth-rank official, the fact that some of the detectives from the Six Gates had become famous during this period forced him to look at Shenwu Hou differently. This man was unfathomable.

We learned through the channels of the Supervisory Council that some powerful men, some eighth-grade thieves, had emerged from the Six Gates, all of whom had been killed one by one by the Six Gates, including many veteran masters. The news should be coming back soon, and the Supervisory Council will of course be the fastest.

"I haven't gone in yet, young master." Fan Sizhe was about to rush in, but was stopped by Fan Ruoruo.

"I haven't gone in yet." When he returned to the Fan Mansion, Liu Ruyu came to greet him.

"That Shen Qingzhou is going too far. He is clearly targeting my Fan family. I have disliked him since I was a child. It turns out he was right. He didn't do such a good lottery business when he was a child." Fan Sizhe's words became more and more crooked.

"He made it when he was a kid, so you can take it and use it, right?" Fan Ruoruo said unhappily.

"Mother, if you ask me, you have to take action. Shen Qingzhou said that he would like to thank you for your kindness. If you take action and enter his mansion, I'll see if he dares to refuse you." Fan Sizhe said.

Fan Xian and Fan Ruoruo actually knew a long time ago that Liu Ruyu would definitely be able to enter the Shenwu Marquis' Mansion. He himself said that out of gratitude for Liu Ruyu's kindness, he came to the Fan Mansion and gave Liu Ruyu many valuable things.

They are really valuable, but Liu Ruyu seems not to like those things and asked people to put them directly in the warehouse. Only Fan Sizhe is persevering in trying to get them out. They are all money, at least tens of thousands of silver taels, which is already valuable enough.

Although she was able to enter the Marquis' Mansion, Fan Xian had never thought of asking her for help, mainly because he felt it was unnecessary.

Liu Ruyu groaned in her heart, "Silly son, if you knew what he thought of your mother, you wouldn't let me go."

"Brother can't meet Marquis Shenwu, and the mastermind behind the assassination won't show up. I may have to trouble aunt, but aunt can write a handwritten letter. I think out of my kindness to him, he will definitely come." Fan Ruoruo also said this at this opportunity.

"Ruoruo, I will take Xian'er to see him about this matter. However, he has deep resentment towards my Fan family, so we may not meet." Having said that, what else could Liu Ruyu say?

"Thank you, Auntie." What else could Fan Xian say.

……

"Interesting, pass it on, open the door wide and welcome distinguished guests." Shen Qingzhou looked at the visiting card. It was great, he knew who to use. He didn't know what Liu Ruyu was thinking. He had already teased her last time, but she shouldn't say anything nonsense.

He naturally knew that Fan Xian wanted to see him. Okay, then let's meet. By now, he and Lin Wan'er should have been in touch and knew that her brother was the murderer. Let's see what you can do.

Outside the gate of Fan's house, Liu Ruyu and the three sons of the Fan family had just gone out. When they saw the scene diagonally opposite them, they were shocked. This Marquis Shenwu was really not joking and really knew how to repay a favor.

The middle door was wide open. You have to know that Liu Ruyu was not the main wife, so she basically could not enjoy this kind of treatment, unless she was from a small family. However, Marquis Shenwu had real power as a second-rank official.

Sitting in the carriage, even though the distance was less than a hundred meters, the purpose of the visiting card was just that, it was quite formal.

I just got on the car and was about to get off. Fan Sizhe really wanted to complain, but forget it.

Just as he stepped onto the stairs, Shen Qingzhou appeared to show his respect. He actually wanted to see what expression Liu Ruyu had. Well, she remained calm, which was right. After all, if he hadn't said too much last time, she probably wouldn't be so angry.

"Mrs. Liu, please." Shen Qingzhou pretended not to see the three followers. The three of them didn't care and came in anyway.

"Hello, Lord Marquis." Liu Ruyu was still polite.

"I wonder what brings Madam Liu here?" After arriving in the hall and the host and guest were seated, Shen Qingzhou took the initiative to ask.

"My lord, I have come here to ask for a favor. I am the young master of the Fan family and I want to discuss something with you." Liu Ruyu's words were not very polite. This person seemed to have become humble.

"Master Fan, you should also know the grudges between me and your Fan family, but Madam Liu is my benefactor after all. As long as it's not too excessive, I will give her this face."

"Okay, I want to see Si Lili and ask her some questions. Don't worry, she can be found at Liushenmen." He was talking nonsense, as if you could take her away.

"Although this matter is difficult to handle, it will be easy to discuss if Madam Liu asks for it." Shen Qingzhou himself wanted to see what choice he would make.

"My Lord, I wonder where you got the poem 'Yellow Crane Tower' from." Fan Xian wanted to continue asking.

"Madam Liu, I have prepared a banquet with Yunmeng fish, which is fresh and delicious." Even for the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, the de facto Minister of the Chancellery, Yunmeng fish cannot be eaten casually.

The main reason is that the fish is difficult to transport. It may not be too difficult locally, but this is Kyoto. In the original book, the Ministry of War had to rush it over a distance of 800 miles.

Shen Qingzhou deliberately ignored Fan Xian and said, "You're not done yet. I've already promised you, but you're still asking. It's not that I can't tell you, I just have to make you anxious."

"Yunmeng fish, good stuff, Shen Qingzhou, I am also a young master of the Fan family. My request is very simple. Can you open a few distribution points for your lottery ticket? It would be best if you could give me all the lottery tickets in Kyoto." Fan Sizhe knows what's good, but he only cares about business.

"My Lord, my brother is joking." Fan Ruoruo hurriedly stopped him. Everyone knows that lottery can make money nowadays, and you dare to say anything.

"My Lord, I will leave first." Let's forget about eating, the most important thing is to do business.

"I'm going to find my brother." Fan Ruoruo really wasn't pretending.

"I'll go find my brother too." Fan Sizhe thought, the Yunmeng fish, he could probably sell it for some money. Now that his mother was still around, he couldn't blame himself.

"Madam, I didn't expect you to be willing to come and see me." There were only two people in the hall. Shen Qingzhou noticed that Liu Ruyu finally became nervous.

"Shen Qingzhou, I know you hate my Fan family."

"Madam, please don't try to persuade me. Unless you are willing to get engaged to me, don't mention this matter. On the other hand, I have given you a lot of face. If it weren't for you, Fan Xian would have been convicted of a crime if he hadn't visited the Six Gates at night."

"You're dreaming." Liu Ruyu couldn't sit still anymore and left.

Then, he saw Fan Sizhe acting sneakily.

"Mother, why did you leave? Alas, you don't know that this Shenwu Marquis is really rich. He is definitely corrupt and eats Yunmeng fish as a meal. He can't finish it for several meals."
