It's already late at night.

The palace gate in Chang'an Imperial City has long been closed.

Qian Dabai was busy all day and returned to the room with some fatigue.

He ordered his eunuch to make a basin of hot water, then put on a loose and comfortable casual outfit, sat at the table, twisted a cherry from the plate and threw it into his mouth, put his feet in the basin, and let the hot water soak his feet, making it soak in the hot water, making it so happy.

He hummed a popular song in Chang'an in his mouth.

He twisted another cherry and prepared to eat it.

But at this moment, a cat moan sounded in my ears.

Qian Dabai opened his eyes and looked at it in the sound. He saw a black cat with pure black hair squatting on the windowsill.

A pair of dark green pupils flashed with a strange brilliance.

Qian Dabai was stunned for a moment and subconsciously threw the cherry in his hand over.

The black cat did not move, and the cherries were thrown on the window frame, landed on the ground, and rolled twice.

"Come……"

Qian Dabai suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

He subconsciously opened his mouth to shout, but he could no longer make a sound when he heard the black cat open his mouth and make a cat moan.

The black cat jumped off the windowsill gracefully and landed silently.

It came to the table, jumped onto the table, tilted its head, and looked at Qian Dabai with a very human look.

That gaze was exactly the same as Qian Dabai's eyes when he was unloading goods in the afternoon.

Fear enveloped Qian Dabai's heart.

He couldn't make a sound, so he shook his body and wanted to escape.

However, his body was unable to move.

The water in the basin is getting hotter and hotter.

Qian Dabai could vaguely see the water boiling.

The unspeakable pain made him pale, but he couldn't move.

His feet seemed to be about to be cooked, red.

Qian Dabai saw that the black cat raised a claw and popped out of the flesh pad, and slowly came to him.

Help!

He opened his mouth wide and wanted to shout.

However, the claws passed through his neck.

He clearly saw that blood mist sprayed out from his neck and fell into the foot wash basin in front of him.

The fat body fell straight backwards and fell to the ground with a thump, and blood flowed all over the ground in an instant.

A cold light flashed in the black cat's eyes.

It meowed, jumped to the ground, took two elegant steps, jumped onto the windowsill, and disappeared into the vast night in the blink of an eye.

Inside the house, Qian Dabai was lying on the ground with wide eyes, the basin of the water under his feet was overturned, the water and blood were mixed together, and flowing on the ground...

Su Dawei suddenly opened his eyes and saw morning light shining in through the window.

He had a strange dream, dreaming of the black cat squatting on the gable wall of Lingbao Temple yesterday.

The black cat looked at him, and he was also looking at the black cat. Each person and the cat looked at each other inexplicably, and there was silence around him.

Looking at a cat, I was sweating all over?

Su Dawei sat up and jumped down from the bed.

The sweatshirt is soaked.

He took a deep breath, took off his sweatshirt, stepped out of the room with his bare arms, and walked out of the room with his bare hands.

It was still early, and it was about to touch it, just around six o'clock in the morning.

The door of Mrs. Liu's room was open, and there was no one inside. Hei Saburo, who liked to lie at the door of the living room, was gone.

Walking out of the living room, the yard was quiet.

The fire in the kitchen had risen, but Mrs. Liu was not inside.

When I walked to the front of the yard, there was no bolt on the yard. It seemed that Miss Liu was out!

Miss Liu rarely goes out so early on weekdays. She gets up early and usually boils water and cooks, waiting for Su Dawei to get up.

But today...

By the way, I remembered it.

Today is March 3rd, Shangsi Festival.

This is one of the ancient festivals that belong to the Chinese nation.

In ancient times, the "Shenzhi" was recorded, and the first day of Si in early March was called "Shangsi". On this day, people would go to the water to worship. There is a sentence in "The Analects of Confucius" that "bath in Yi, the wind in the wind, and the song goes back" which is the custom of Shangsi.

This festival evolved into a spring outing in the suburbs and a banquet by the water in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

The famous "Qushui Liushang" in history also came from this festival. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Shangsi Festival was already a festival that people attach great importance to. It is not only a spring outing, but also a festival for sacrifices, but also a daughter's Day and spring bathing day.

Even this day is Valentine's Day, and pairs of men and women will play by the water.

The records of Shangsi Festival first began in the Book of Songs.

After the pre-Qin period, Valentine's Day was inherited in various dynasties and generations. In the Tang Dynasty, the poet Du Fu once had a poem that "the weather on March 3 is new and there are many beautiful people by the water in Chang'an", which further set the swaying and beautiful style of this festival to the climax.

Unfortunately, after the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the custom of March 3 gradually declined during the Song Dynasty.

So much so that in Su Dawei's era, people had long forgotten this oldest and solemn Valentine's Day.

It is precisely for this reason that Su Dawei has no impression of Shangsi Festival.

Before going to bed last night, Mrs. Liu seemed to say: Tomorrow is March 3rd, I will buy some orchids for the monks of Lingbao Temple. They are all poor people. They are young and have a green lamp for the ancient Buddha. I will give some orchids over, and it is my intention.

Orchid is a kind of spiritual object.

The so-called orchid bathing comes from this.

Su Dawei patted his head and shook his head helplessly.

He knew that the so-called intention of Mrs. Liu was actually only targeting Master Mingkong.

After all, Master Mingkong had saved his mother and son's lives. Mrs. Liu was also a grateful person, so naturally he would not forget these. Those Masters were originally concubines in the palace. Now, the ancient Buddha's green lamp is trapped in this temple, and I am afraid that he has long forgotten the human affairs.

After Su Dawei figured it out, he no longer had to worry.

He first moved to the front yard and then went to the back yard to practice.

After practicing for about a quarter of an hour, Di Renjie also got up and ran to the backyard.

"Ami, can you tell me how to use these things?"

"OK."

Su Dawei refused, and walked forward with a smile to teach Di Renjie to exercise.

"By the way, are you ready?"

"Everything is ready, brother, just don't worry."

"Make sure there are no flaws."

"My brother Zhou Er is very careful in doing things and will not leave any flaws."

"That's good."

"By the way, my elder brother went to the county government yesterday, did you find any clues?"

Di Renjie signaled Su Dawei to help him take off the barbell and said gasping: "Nothing has been found. But I found something. Weishan has achieved remarkable achievements in recent years and has a very well-informed news. According to your Deputy Jiang, Weishan seems to have an independent source of information. However, Weishan is very careful, so no one knows where he got the news."

As he said that, he took the towel handed over by Su Dawei and wiped the sweat from his face.

"Ami, are you really sure that Wei Shan got the news from the Guest House?"

"I don't know, but I think...yes."

Sheep-faced shopkeeper, a strong Kunlun slave, and abundant funds can be allocated and used.

As long as Wei Shan is looking for information clues in the past two days, the only possibility is the Guifang.

But Su Dawei didn't know how to explain it, so he could only use "intuition" to explain it, so that the persuasiveness seemed a bit insufficient.

"It's okay, I asked Hong Liang to stare at the cabinet to see if there is any gain."

"Brother, you'd better remind Hong Liang that the cabinet shop is not simple, so he must not take risks."

Di Renjie nodded, "Don't worry, Hong Liang has rich experience in the world. He knows what to do and will not act without authorization."

After saying that, he suddenly laughed.

"I came to Chang'an to study, but I didn't expect it to be like this.

If my father knew, he would definitely be unhappy. Now, I just hope to end it soon and then go back to the Imperial College honestly."

Today, Di Renjie is not the future detective who has been in charge of Dali Temple after suffering hardships.

It can be seen that he is under a lot of pressure.

On the one hand, it is the pressure on the case, but on the other hand, it comes from Pei Xingjian.

"By the way, Ami, you will accompany me to the county government later."

"do what?"

"Since your side has started to take action, I am also very curious about Baima Lane.

We are waiting for news in the county government. Once you succeed, we will act immediately... I also want to know what the news that killed Weishan, what does it mean? If the Yu Pillow Case can be solved in one go, I can submit the job."

Su Dawei said: "Since that's the case, let's set off in a while."

After the two of them finished practicing, they ate the breakfast prepared by Lady Liu, dressed neatly and prepared to set off.

Su Dawei found a deerskin shoulder bag, put the small horned crossbow and arrowhead in it, and then stepped on the horizontal knife.

Di Renjie also brought a sword and the green shark skin scabbard, which further highlighted his majestic posture. When the two went out, Miss Liu came back. As Su Dawei guessed, Miss Liu went to send orchids to Master Mingkong. Seeing that the two were leaving, Miss Liu did not ask much, but only advised Su Dawei, and then brought a few rice balls to him.

"The rice balls made by my mother are the best in Chang'an."

Su Dawei smiled and explained to Di Renjie: "In the past, when I went to work as a yamen, my mother would prepare a few rice balls for me so that I would not be hungry by then."

"Is that true? Then I have to try it."

Di Renjie laughed and walked out of Jidu Lane with Su Dawei.

The two went straight to the county government office, and then separated outside the county government office.

Di Renjie went to Pei Xingjian to report the situation, while Su Dawei came to the government and waited for the call.

Today is Shangsi Festival, and the yamen is also very leisurely. Many people go out for spring outings, but only Jiang Moha and a few bad people stay in the government.

When Jiang Maha saw Su Dawei, he had a very kind attitude.

However, Su Dawei could feel that Jiang Mohe's affection originated from Di Renjie.

Di Renjie was entrusted by Pei Xingjian to fully handle the Yuzhen case. In addition to the county magistrate, county magistrate and chief clerk, all bad people in the county government must obey Di Renjie's orders. Previously, Di Renjie asked Pei Xingjian's confidant Wang Sheng to ask for leave for Su Dawei, forcing Jiang Moha to re-examine Su Dawei. He was not sure what kind of relationship did Su Dawei and the county magistrate have?

"Oh, I'm a friend of the county lord, and I happen to be my tenant.

The county magistrate asked me to accompany him, so I would ask for leave yesterday. Jiang Shuai, there was nothing I could do, after all, he is a friend of the county magistrate."

"I see."

Jiang Mahe felt relieved after hearing Su Dawei's words.

He was really scared. Su Dawei had something to do with Pei Xingjian, so he would take his position at that time.

When Wei Shan died, Jiang Mohe targeted the throne of bad coach. If Su Dawei had something to do with Pei Xingjian, then he would be in danger. But thinking about it, it seems unlikely. If Su Dawei really had such a way, why would he be a bad person in the county government? Yesterday, Jiang Mohe was worried, but now, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

By the way, the tenant from Su Dawei's family...

Could it be the person entrusted by the county magistrate to be responsible for the Yuzhen case?

If this is the case, it seems that you can take a walk. Maybe through Su Dawei's relationship, you can determine the position of the bad handsome guy as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Jiang Maha's attitude immediately changed.

He pulled Su Dawei intimately to chat, rambled, and the words revealed that he hoped Su Dawei could help him with beautiful words.

Su Dawei patted his chest and assured Jiang Mohe that he would do his best.

Later generations, Su Shi and Su Dongpo once wrote a poem saying: I don’t know the true face of Mount Lu because I am in this mountain.

Su Dawei actually saw clearly the successor of the bad commander. If Pei Xingjian was killed, if Pei Xingjian wanted to choose a successor from the county government, Jiang Maha had a great chance of winning. First of all, as Wei Shan's deputy, he was experienced and familiar with the situation under his control; secondly, the group of bad commanders is not something that ordinary people can command.

If you find an outsider to come over, it will cause resistance from bad people, and it is better to promote it from within.

From this perspective, Jiang Maha is the best choice.
