The incident happened suddenly, and after Fang Yuan was taken away, the Dechang casino was in chaos.
There are those who are curious, those who are surprised, and those who are afraid.
"God, did you hear? This steward killed someone??"
"It's not the same who can be the manager of the casino, they dare to kill!"
"Don't tell me, this steward Fang is not a good person at first glance! How many guys in the casino have been driven away by him? How many gamblers have been thrown out by steward Fang recently? It's terrible, terrible."
"Let's go, let's go, who would dare to come to this kind of casino? I'm afraid it will die."
"But brother, aren't all the casinos in the capital all from one family? You don't gamble here, don't you gamble in other houses?"
"… Too."
The noise of doubts came one after another, Ji Yunxi called the most capable person in the workshop except Fang Yuan, temporarily handed Dechang to the other party to take over, and explained some matters carefully.
Wu Weian remembered his carriage, and after the arresters left, he hurried out.
As a result, the place where a new carriage should have been parked outside, a thin horse, was empty.
His horse, pulling his new carriage, which he had only ridden once, ran away.
Ran…
Ran!
Next to Wu Weian parked the carriage, Ji Yunxi's exquisite and spacious carriage was still there.
The smooth fur, fat and strong Maxima shook its head handsomely, waiting patiently for its rich hostess.
Wu Weian recognized it carefully, and Ji Yunxi did not tie the reins to her horse.
So why didn't her horse run? Did he just run away
Just as he was thinking about it, Ji Yunxi's driver got out of the side alley.
Seeing Wu Weian, the driver bowed.
Wu Weian asked him, "Have you seen my carriage?"
The driver was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I didn't see the little one."
Wu Weian asked him, "You're not here guarding the carriage, where have you been?" If the other party was there, his carriage wouldn't run!
The driver was a little aggrieved and a little embarrassed: "Little one went to the toilet."
Wu Weian was speechless.
He can't keep people from going to the toilet, can't he
On the other side of his carriage, stood a little boy.
The child was about five or six years old, holding a string of candied haws, looking up at him with a dirty little face, licking the candied haws.
Wu Weian stared at the child, looking at each other for a while.
He remembered that the child was standing here just before he entered the door!
Wu Weian walked over, squatted down in front of the child, and asked softly, "Son, have you seen your brother's carriage? That horse is thin."
The child nodded.
Wu Weian's eyes lit up: "Then where did you see the horse running?"
The child hesitated, looked to the left and right of the street, and then pointed to the left of the street.
Wu Weian thanked him and ran to the left of the street.
His skinny horse can't run fast, maybe he can catch up now!
The child looked at Wu Weian's running back, wiped his fingers, touched his head, looked to the right, and bit the candied haws dazedly.
…
After Ji Yunxi finished dealing with Dechang's matter, he walked out of it.
She is no longer in the mood to visit the casino, and she has to go back and think about what to do with Fang Yuan.
Ji Yunxi stood beside the carriage and looked around, but did not see Wu Weian.
Strange, when the arrest was about to come, he was obviously still there. Although he didn't see him inside just now, Ji Yunxi thought he was waiting outside in a carriage.
After all, Wu Weian seemed to like his new carriage.
And these days, according to Baofu, he often goes to the car dealership to stare at the guys at work.
The guys were all stared at by him.
Ji Yunxi can also understand, after all, ancient carriages are probably equivalent to modern ones.
Many men in modern times have different feelings for cars, and many of the business celebrities she knew back then were also very fond of cars.
Ji Yunxi asked the groom, "Where's your lord?"
The groom replied, "Miss Bingsan, it seems that your lord's carriage has been lost, and your lord is chasing it."
Ji Yunxi: "?"
Ji Yunxi rubbed his eyebrows: "Then let's go back first."
As a result, the carriage stopped shortly after it had traveled.
Ji Yunxi was wondering why he stopped, the curtain was lifted, and the panting Wu Weian climbed up.
This June day, running around on the street, Wu Weian sweated.
Ji Yunxi poured him a cup of herbal tea and handed it over, and asked, "Didn't find it?"
"Yeah." Wu Weian took the teacup, raised his head and drank it, his mood didn't seem too high, and he was very disappointed.
What a hell, his horse, which has always been slow, he chased all the way, but he didn't even see a horse's butt.
He also asked a lot of pedestrians, but none of them said they had seen it.
He happened to see Ji Yunxi's carriage passing by, so he stopped it.
If you miss the best time for chasing horses, the carriage may not be easy to find. He couldn't use light energy, he could only run on his legs.
This day, it was too hot, I could bear it before, but now enjoying the coolness of ice cubes at home, Wu Weian didn't want to feel wronged anymore.
Now it seems that they can only go back and start the steward Xuezhu and the others. After a long-term plan, they went to the capital to find them.
Ji Yunxi also poured herself a cup of herbal tea, but she didn't drink it, so she just kept it in the palm of her hand.
Seeing his sighing appearance, Ji Yunxi thought for a while: "If I can't find it, I'll ask the car dealership to make another one for you."
"No." Wu Weian spit out a word with cold eyes, "I can find it."
He doesn't believe it anymore! He won't find his carriage!
In recent days, how many drawings, how many trips to the car dealership, how many 'discussions' with those stupid guys, and how much energy he spent to get such a car, very, very, very much to his heart's content carriage.
This is not something that can be solved by ordering another carriage!
Ji Yunxi shook his head: "But how can the carriage run?"
Wu Weian glanced at her, pursed his lips, and did not return for a while.
He didn't know what happened to him either.
Anyway, at that time, he just wasn't on the reins. Not being on the reins was an incredible thing for him.
Wu Weian sighed lightly: "I don't know either, I'm clearly connected. Maybe it's a child on the side of the road who is playful, so please help me solve it."
Ji Yunxi nodded, bypassing the topic and asking him, "What do you think about Fang Yuan?"
Hearing this, Wu Weian took the look of remorse, annoyance and anger off his face.
He glanced at her several times, then at the empty teacup in his hand.
He just said, how could she kindly pour tea for him, and offered to send him another carriage.
It was waiting here.
Wu Weian lowered his head, refilled himself a cup of herbal tea, held it in the palm of his hand, and leaned back.
The wind blew up the curtains, bringing a touch of outside heat to the cool interior of the car.
From the blown curtain, Wu Weian looked at the various pedestrians by the window, took a sip of herbal tea, and said slowly, "Fang Yuan, I'm coming for your Ji family."
Ji Yunxi lowered her head slightly and shook the herbal tea in her cup: "I know."
Wu Weian retracted his gaze, and his eyes fell on her: "The easiest solution for this matter is to leave it alone. You can always find a better manager than Fang Yuan."
As long as you don't care, the people behind will not be able to frame the Ji family. Sacrifice a distance at most.
Fang Yuan, no matter how capable he is, is just an ordinary person. In this world, there has never been a shortage of people, and there is no shortage of capable people.
If you spend more time looking for it, you will be able to find a suitable manager, perhaps better than Fang Yuan.
only-
Wu Weian slightly hooked his lips and looked at his seemingly indifferent wife: "Can you do it?"
Ji Yunxi raised her head, those bright and firm eyes looked at him quietly, her red lips parted lightly, and she threw the question back lightly: "It's you, do you care?"
Wu Weian put down the cup, made a soft sound, and settled down: "Turn."
Ji Yunxi raised her beautiful eyebrows, and her bright face showed a bit of surprise: "This is quite unexpected."
Wu Weian is not a gentleman in the light of the wind and the moon, even though he has a good face, but the word 'kindness' has always had nothing to do with him.
With people in his hands, he was afraid that it was just a piece of chess.
Fang Yuan's chess piece is not heavy. She thought he would say no.
Wu Weian rolled his eyes, his face was peaceful and kind, and his tone was gentle: "Save one person and reassure everyone. They will willingly sacrifice their lives for you, why not?"
Ji Yunxi understood what he meant: "I don't know whether it is fortunate or unfortunate to be your person."
Wu Weian shrugged, he never thought about this kind of problem. He looked at her and casually reminded: "I am afraid that the prison of the Ministry of Punishment has already set a net of heaven and earth, waiting for your Ji family to throw themselves into the net. You can manage it, but you have to find another way. Otherwise, instead of saving Fang Yuan, you will Compensate yourself."
As for letting him find a way to help? Fang Yuan is not his.
Don't think he didn't know, that Fang Yuan secretly diverted some of his business from the four stores to Ji Yunxi's four stores.
Ji Yunxi looked at him, raised her eyebrows, and said in a somewhat incredulous tone, "You think I'm stupid?"
Wu Weian laughed: "I'll remind you. Now that you and I are married, don't drag my Wu family into the water."
Ji Yunxi couldn't hold back, and rolled her eyes gently.
She pondered for a moment and discussed with him: "I want to borrow your people."
Wu Weian hummed: "What?"
Ji Yunxi said: "Fang Yuan is a woman who disguised as a man and left her hometown to come to Shangjing, and she is proficient in gambling. I guess that her father was addicted to gambling and gave her to the casino, so she may have stayed in the casino for a while when she was a child. Time. Later, for some reason, she should have been bought by someone. The woman who was bought won't end well. She should have killed someone by mistake. here in the capital."
Wu Weian nodded: "Fang Yuan is the last in the test."
Ji Yunxi: "It's been almost three months since Fang Yuan was in charge of me. This time is just enough time for people to go to Fang Yuan's hometown and then come back. The people of the fifth prince must be from Fang Yuan. My parents brought it. I want your people to help me find Fang Yuan's parents."
Wu Weian glanced at her with some appreciation in his eyes.
There was a smile in his eyes: "Okay, I just happened to be looking for a horse. But the husband and wife, clearly settle the account?"
Ji Yunxi looked at him: "I know, you make a price."
Wu Weian thought for a while: "It's usually 1,000 taels to find people in the market, but I want 2,000 taels." He raised Erlang's legs on the ground, "Of course, you can also find others."
Ji Yunxi snorted and asked him lightly, "There is a big difference between one thousand taels and two thousand taels?"
Wu Wei'an Erlang, who was in the presence of the old god, paused: "..."
The gap between people is really big, even if they share the same bed, it is also very different.
He sighed lightly: "Then it's settled, two thousand taels, pay one thousand first, and then pay one thousand when things are done."
Ji Yunxi bent over, opened another small hidden compartment, took out twenty banknotes from the stack of banknotes, and handed them over: "No, I'll pay in full now."
Wu Weian: "..."
Well, he was quite happy to be able to get two thousand taels into his account.
But now, he was suddenly not so happy.
But Wu Weian put down Erlang's legs immediately, took the bank note, and put it in his pocket.
*
Outside the prison, the injured 'Fang Yuan' was woken up by a bucket of water.
The water slid down her long hair, revealing a face that was clearly a woman.
The facial features of 'Fang Yuan' are not very delicate, but a very ordinary appearance on the streets.
Outside the prison, a gray-haired couple stood there to identify.
The mean-faced old woman pointed at 'Fang Yuan' excitedly: "It's her! She's the bitch in my family! The old man in my family was gambling and won a small amount of money. I just saw this bitch serving tea and water next to me, and I couldn't bear it. Bought it from a casino! We originally wanted this bitch to be a child bride for our youngest son! Growing up, we gave her food and clothing, but we didn't expect this bitch to be so vicious! He actually harmed my son, My son! He even pretended to be my son and wrote a letter saying that he was going to take the test in Beijing! If the nobles hadn't found us, we would not have known that this bitch actually harmed my son! My poor son! He finally took the test I went to the township exam and became a master of the juren! As a result, I was killed by this slut! My lord, you must uphold justice for my son and divide this slut into five horses!!"
The old woman covered her heart, thinking of her little son who should have a bright future, and she was heartbroken.
Her voice was sharp, and she circled back and forth in the prison.
'Fang Yuan' moved slightly, opened his eyes with difficulty to take a look, and then closed his lips with difficulty, his lips that were bitten to the point of sarcasm.
'Fang Yuan' clenched his teeth and obeyed the third girl's orders. He fainted in pain and did not admit that she killed Fang Yuan.
If she really admits it, the three girls may not be able to save her.
The three girls said they would try to save her out.
To be honest, the identity of the three girls is very different from hers. In these days, she has never seen the three girls.
The casino is everything to her, but not everything to the three girls.
But inexplicably, she just believed in the three girls.
'Fang Yuan' has never trusted others, she knows that she can only rely on herself.
But this time, she believed the three girls.
Since the three girls told her so, the three girls will definitely be able to do it.
So even if Fang Yuan was indeed killed by her, she would not let go.
Because she wanted to live, she always wanted to live.
No matter how hard and hard the previous days were, she never gave up hope of life.
there has never been.
What's more, these three months have allowed 'Fang Yuan' to see what life should be like.
Let her know that she is no worse than a man, and she sees the vast sky that belongs to her.
She is full of anticipation for tomorrow before going to bed every day.
But in such a day, can she only have three months
Why
Why?
Why? ?
For someone like Fang Yuan, it's not a pity to die!
'Fang Yuan' doesn't have a name, everyone calls her 'Bitch'.
At the age of six, she was sold by her father to a casino to pay off her debts for ten cents. She still remembers it clearly.
She was very ugly when she was a child, and the brothel refused to accept her, so the casino could only keep her for tea and water.
Then she was bought by Fang's father for fifteen cents and brought home as a child bride.
Fang Yuan is the youngest son of the Fang family, but he has hidden illnesses and cannot be humane. Fang's parents were afraid that their younger son would not be able to marry a wife when he grew up.
After the cheap girl arrived at Fang's house, her life was worse than in the casino.
She is responsible for all the work of the entire Fang family, and everyone in the Fang family can beat her and scold her.
Bian Ya escaped many times, but failed every time.
She was thin and weak since she was a child, and could not run very far, and the neighbors always helped the Fang family.
Then, she became well-behaved, and she stopped running away. She is waiting for herself to grow up, waiting for a chance.
That Fang Yuan, although he has a hidden illness, has been working hard to study in order to become an official and a master, and he even became a master.
It's just that he was under a lot of pressure to study, so he tortured her to vent his anger.
But it doesn't matter, she can bear it.
Later, one day, a few days before Fang Yuan went to Beijing to take the exam, everyone in the Fang family was absent except Fang Yuan.
As if God wanted to help her, Fang Yuan remembered that he had not bought something, and went out too.
She simply packed her things, afraid of danger on the road, and hid a knife, and was about to leave.
But Fang Yuan forgot to bring the money and went back again.
When Fang Yuan beat her, she took out the knife.
She inserted it very accurately, very accurately, directly into his heart, killing him.
Afterwards, she disposed of the corpse and left a letter. Anyway, the Fang family members, except Fang Yuan, were not scholars and could not recognize the handwriting.
She became 'Fang Yuan', and she came to Shangjing.
So, will she be afraid of torture to extract a confession
No, she's not afraid.
On the contrary, she is very happy, she is very relaxed.
Her heart has never been so relaxed.
Because she knows very well that as long as she can survive this last catastrophe, the past will be over.
From then on, what greeted her was the real world.
Maybe not that good, but certainly not that bad.
That's enough.

Ji Yunxi and Wu Weian had just arrived home, and Ji Mingshuang and Ji Mingyan were already waiting for them. Also brought first-hand information from the Ministry of Justice.
Of course, they didn't hear this news, they didn't have such long hands.
It's the handwriting of my elder brother.
Ji Yunxi guessed about the ins and outs of the matter. She put away the re-engraved case file and hummed, "I see."
Ji Mingyan glanced at Ji Mingshuang, and said before his seventh brother: "Third sister, if you need to use the sixth brother, just say it! Don't be polite to your sixth brother! There is no place to try my new poison! "Really, he was miserable.
Ji Mingshuang looked at the sky, silently took three steps to the side, away from Ji Mingyan, and said, "I know some people in the arena, and many of them are in Beijing now."
From childhood to adulthood, Ji Yunxi's character was known to several older brothers.
When this happened, it was absolutely impossible for their sister to sit idly by.
And the sister's business is naturally their business.
Ji Yunxi's always indifferent face softened. It was the first time Wu Weian saw her smile so tenderly: "Xie Liuge, Xie Qige. I really want your help."
Ji Mingyan was very excited: "Third sister, you said! I have whatever poison you want! I recently changed the sweat medicine, and it can stun a large number of people at any time. It is definitely suitable for prison robbery!"
Ji Yunxi pondered for a moment and said, "Everything should be done with caution. The two brothers will help me explore the surroundings of the Punishment Department first. Don't be impatient. Before I figure out a specific method and tell you, don't do it privately."
Ji Mingyan nodded frantically: "Okay! I will follow my friends from Dali Temple to the punishment department in the next few days."
Ji Mingshuang was always worried about his sixth brother, and he told him anxiously, "Be careful, don't be impulsive."
Ji Mingyan waved his hand: "Don't worry, I just look, I don't talk, I don't carry poison, I stay far away."
Although Ji Mingyan's brain circuit is strange, he is very obedient.
Since he said so, he will be very careful.
And Ji Mingshuang has always been a cautious person.
Ji Yunxi was not worried, and after explaining a few words, let the two older brothers go.
After all, she just asked them to act.
Wu Weian said leisurely, "Why don't you tell me?" Those two older brothers were afraid that Ji Yunxi was going to rob the prison of the Punishment Department.
Ji Yunxi withdrew her gaze from the two brothers, turned around and went back to her room: "They didn't play as well as you."
Wu Weian smiled and rolled his eyes: "Thank you."
People compliment him.
Wu Weian didn't follow him into the room. He called for a round-faced steward, and instructed: "Let the people in the city prepare to move, two things, find people and horses. Look for horses in the light, and people in the dark. Wait for my signal."
The round face is in charge of things and bows: "Yes."
After Wu Weian finished explaining, he entered the room.
Ji Yunxi sat on the slump, opened the case file and read it carefully.
Wu Weian didn't bother him, walked to her vanity mirror, took a pair of scissors, looked at his new clothes that he hadn't worn for a few days, and picked out a few cuts.
Then, he bent down and smeared himself in front of the mirror, and smeared his clothes along the way.
When Ji Yunxi looked up from the file, she found that her husband had changed.
His clothes were dirty and torn, and his face was haggard and haggard.
He winked at her and went out the door as the sun went down in the evening.
*
Lin Feng was the first person to speak out to comfort Wu Weian when Wu Weian was crying.
Lin Feng was there in the palace exam that day. He heard Wu Weian's answer with his own eyes, and was really amazed by Wu Weian's talent.
Now he is also working in the Hanlin Academy with Wu Weian. He saw with his own eyes how hard Wu Weian was in the Hanlin Academy. Some time ago, he went out early and returned late.
Moreover, Wu Weian is also a very good person. He is kind to people in the Hanlin Academy and is very easy to get along with.
Therefore, Lin Feng has now regarded Wu Weian as his role model, and he is even more convinced that this Wu Bianxiu will definitely make a difference in the future.
On this day, he was drinking and writing poetry with a group of talented people in a wine shop, but he never thought that he saw Wu Weian passing by anxiously.
And the other party's clothes were torn, and it looked like a refugee who fled.
Lin Feng hurriedly put down his glass and chased out: "Brother Wei An, what happened? Why are you looking so bad? What's wrong with your clothes?"
The restaurant is located in the downtown area, not far from the brothel, and there are many people at this time.
Wu Weian stopped and sighed: "Brother Lin Feng, I lost the only horse in my family today, and I was looking for it. I searched for it for a day, but I couldn't find it!"
After speaking, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, his lips trembled, and his face was anxious.
Lin Feng knew about Wu Weian's thin horse.
He asked a few more questions, and then said: "The upper capital is very big, and it is mixed with fish and dragons. Forgive me to say bluntly, but Brother An's horse, I'm afraid I won't be able to find it."
Wu Weian's face turned pale.
Lin Feng said: "In this way, there are many good horses in my family, but if Brother An doesn't mind, you can pick one from me."
Wu Weian shook his head: "No no no, thank you brother Lin Feng for your kindness. But my horse is very meaningful to me. On my hard days, I often go to my stable to feed the horse, and the horse will rub my palm when it sees me. Treat that horse as a friend and a relative. How can you give up when your relatives and friends are lost?"
Wu Weian said loudly, "I must find it!"
This sound was really loud, and the pedestrians around couldn't help but stop.
They thought that the two scholars were quarreling, so they subconsciously gathered around to watch the fun.
Brother Lin Feng couldn't help but stunned for a moment, and hurriedly clasped his fists: "Brother Wei An is really a man of temperament!"
Wu Weian smiled wryly and waved his hand: "I won't say it, I won't say it. To be honest, when the family was poor, the cheapest and worst horses were bought at a cost of eight taels. But if someone can find the horse for me, I will be Wu Weian. I would like to give fifty taels of silver as a gift!"
As soon as the word 'fifty-two' came out, the onlookers could not help but exclaimed.
Although the Ji family is always in the thousands or tens of thousands of taels, in fact, among the public, a tael of silver is already a large sum of money.
Not to mention fifty-two! This is a huge sum of money!
Go to the market to buy an ordinary horse, about twenty taels. And this adult can buy it with eight taels, which shows that it is not a good horse.
This means that if you find a bad horse, you can earn fifty taels? ! ! !
And what did this man say his name was
Wu Weian
Isn't that the name of the former Tanhua Lang
Isn't that the name of the husband-in-law of the famous third girl of the Ji family in the capital
Come to think of it, I really can afford fifty taels, and I won't default on my debt!
A voice came from the crowd: "Master Wu, what does your horse look like!"
Wu Weian described his horse in detail: "Yellow-brown, extremely slender, with huge eyes, and half of the tail on the tail is black."
The crowd said again: "Master Wu, can you draw a picture? We will find it for you!"
Wu Weian went to the restaurant and used Lin Feng's pen and paper to draw a horse.
Then this painting was repainted again and again, and not long after, all the beggars on the street had a copy.
All went to the capital, vigorously, to find his horse for Wu Bianxiu.
The author has something to say: Ma Er: fart, the master has never fed me, it was all fed by the sixth brother of the Ji family.
