The next place is Xu Weng's house.

Wang Yan, Xue Mulin, Yu Yun, and Wen Yizhi changed to riding horses again and galloped all the way. When they arrived, it was already dusk. Wang Yan reined in his horse in front of the alley, and immediately surrounded by a group of men in plain clothes. Wang Yan raised his hand to stop the yelling from his followers, and a figure lifted the curtain from a small sedan parked not far away on the side of the road.

"Wang Langzhong, why did you visit this place?"

Wang Yan smiled and got off the horse: "Lord Feng, it's just right, I just said I'm going to find you." He grabbed his shoulder and whispered something in his ear.

Feng Tai's expression changed, he calmed down and took a step back, withdrawing from Wang Yan's claws.

Wang Yan said again: "That's right, I have another question. Have Xu Weng and his family met Mr. Feng?"

Feng Tai said expressionlessly: "Not yet."

Wang Yan grinned: "That's great. I need a famous doctor to be present when I go to Xu's house for questioning later. It's hard to find it for a while, and we are all dressed in Taoist robes, as if we were going to drink flower wine. Mr. Feng still has the charm, I don't know if I can help you?"

Feng Tai said lightly: "Master Wang, please wait a moment." He turned around and called the guards to give some instructions, and then walked back to the sedan chair.

Yu Yun tapped Wang Yan's door lightly: "Who do you think is going to drink flower wine when wearing Taoist robes?"

Wang Yan showed his white teeth: "Speaking of you."

Yu Yun tapped him again: "However, what did you whisper to that surnamed Feng just now? He turned a bit too hard."

Wen Yizhi looked worried: "A Yan, you wouldn't tell him that you wanted to destroy his whole family, would you? You can't break the law knowingly."

Wang Yan put his hand behind his back with a half-smile: "It's inconvenient to disclose it for now." He swaggered into the alley.

Xu Weng's family lived in the fifth household on the left side of the alley, with low walls and old wooden doors. Wen Yizhi looked around at all the households in the alley, and murmured: "Ah Yan is right, I can climb over this wall, why do I have to go to the market to steal parrots?"

The doors of each house were closed tightly, and a few dogs barked from a certain section of the wall. Wang Yan's servant stepped forward and knocked on the door knocker of Xu Weng's house. A light flickered in the crack of the door, and the door creaked open. A pair of gray-haired old men bowed down with lanterns.

"Crassman Xu Hong and the lowly wife Xu Bai pay respects to all the lords."

Wang Yan's servants supported the two old men.

"Our eldest son came here in casual clothes, and the second elder doesn't need to perform this grand ceremony."

Wang Yan glanced around the courtyard: "In the afternoon, I went to the flower market to check your shop first, and I know that you will meet two people. Please don't be too abrupt to visit your mansion at this time."

Xu Weng hurriedly bowed tremblingly: "How dare, how dare. Mr. Wang came to the humble house in person. It is really a blessing for the little old man to cultivate in ten lifetimes. The humble house is really dilapidated and dilapidated. If you don't want to abandon it, please sit in the hall. "

Wang Yan stepped across the threshold.

"I have a friendship with Liu Su, the grandson of Lord Liu Hou. I learned about this case from him. It happened to be on vacation today, so I checked it out. The Jingzhao Mansion was well informed and set up an ambush at the entrance of the alley. I don't know if I have explained to you two, Are there some things you can't say in front of me?"

Xu Weng and Xu Bai hurriedly said, I don't know what happened, but no master from Jingzhao Mansion came to the door today. This case can be investigated by Mr. Wang. It is really Sansheng who was lucky to burn incense in his previous life. If Lord Wang has anything to ask, he will know everything.

Wang Yan nodded again, went into the hall and sat down, and asked Xu Weng and his wife to sit down as well, and said slowly: "The thief who stole your parrot has been found out, he is a barbarian."

Both Xu Weng and Xu Bai's bodies trembled violently. Xu Weng was about to kneel again in a hurry, but was helped to a chair by Wang Yan's servant.

"My lord, that Caomin's parrot, is, is it okay?"

Wang Yan said: "I haven't found it yet, I'm searching. If I find it, I will let you know. The name of the barbarian who stole the parrot is Gu Hande, a native of Shansi. There is a shop in Ligongfang that sells felt and tin wares. Stealing your parrot. Do you know the thief?"

Xu Weng supported the table, his body trembling slightly: "The little old man and his wife are doing business at the entrance of the flower market. There are often a few barbarians who have similar beards. I can't remember which one in particular. I don't know why this person wants to steal my little treasure. !"

Xu Bai choked up: "Thank you, Mr. Qingtian, for catching this thief. Please, Mr. Qingtian, you must find my little treasure! Our old couple is willing to be a cow and a horse for the adults, and enshrine the ranking of longevity..."

Wang Yan's servant interrupted her: "Don't worry, you two, there is no case that our eldest son can't solve."

Wang Yan said: "The thief has caught it, and it should not be far away to find the stolen goods. But the barbarian said that the parrot belonged to a friend of his, and he found it for him. So I need to ask you, this parrot Where did you get it?"

Xu Weng and Xu Bai were startled again, Xu Weng tremblingly said: "My lord, I can't lie, this parrot really flew to our house by itself."

Xu Bai said loudly: "But Xiaobao definitely doesn't belong to the Huzi family! It hasn't told us a single word of nonsense!"

Xu Weng scolded and interrupted Xu Baishi, and knelt down on the ground: "My lord, you are a little confused, please don't blame me. A few months ago, the little old man's grandson disappeared... Our old couple may have committed crimes in our previous life, but only A little grandson, he couldn't keep it... Jiannei almost followed him. Two or three months ago, Jiannei was just able to sit up and bask in the sun by the window when he suddenly heard a voice calling grandma don't cry, grandma don't cry …”

Xu Weng choked, and Xu Bai who was on the side was already sobbing.

Wang Yan's servant helped Xu Weng again and handed over the sweat towel. Xu Weng wiped his face, apologized to Wang Yan, and continued: "Let's take a look, it's a parrot, squatting on the clump of rose flowers outside... Before Xiaobao, he always liked to play there..."

Wang Yan nodded: "Is this bird going to say anything else besides this sentence?"

Xu Weng wiped his tears again: "In the beginning, except for this sentence, I couldn't say anything else. But Jiane's life was called back just like that... What we said later was taught by us."

Xu Baishi covered his face with a sweat towel: "You are smart, you can learn it as soon as you learn... our little treasure is smart..."

Wang Yan's servant brought a cup of tea, Xu Weng leaned over to take it, but his hands trembled and he couldn't hold it, the teacup fell to the ground and broke into several pieces.

Xu Weng sincerely feared to accuse him, and suddenly a soft voice came: "Elder-in-law, don't cut off your hands, this slave will clean up." A door curtain on the side was lifted, and a young woman came out, wearing a cloth shirt and skirt. Wearing a coarse cloth apron, holding a broom and dustpan in his hand, he bowed his head to Wang Yan and others, and hurriedly swept away the broken porcelain pieces.

Wang Yan raised his eyebrows: "Who are you?"

The woman leaned back and saluted again: "Xu Tian, a daughter of the people, pays homage to all your lords."

Xu Weng hurriedly reported: "This is Cao Min's daughter-in-law. I don't understand the rules, and I am abrupt."

Xu Baishi wanted to snatch the broom from the woman, but his feet wobbled and he fell back to his chair.

Wang Yan said softly: "The second elder is not in good health, just in time, I brought a doctor over here to diagnose the pulse of the two."

Xu Weng bowed: "Thank you for your concern, the little old man and the bitch are both in good health, so there is no need to see a doctor."

The woman also lowered her head and said: "Both father-in-law and mother-in-law have prepared daily tonics, decocted and taken every day, so you don't need to bother adults."

Wang Yan's servant said: "An ordinary doctor, how can he compare with the one invited by our eldest son. Let the two of you have a look."

Wang Yan said: "On the night when the case happened, both of you were smoked. I'm afraid it will harm your health. Asking the doctor to see a doctor is also considered evidence collection. You don't need to refuse." He ordered the servant, "Mr. Hong, please come here."

The servant responded and went out, and after a while, he led Feng Tai into the hall, who was wearing a gray robe, a square scarf on his head, and a medicine box on his shoulder.

Xu Weng had no choice but to roll up his sleeves, Feng Tai called Tian Shi who was about to retreat: "Please calm down the old lady's mood first, otherwise the pulse will be unstable and it will be difficult to distinguish the symptoms."

Tian put the broom and dustpan aside first, walked to Xu Bai's side, knelt down and stroked Xu Bai's shoulders.

Yu Yun looked at her beautiful profile: "Young Madam is really filial."

Tian timidly bowed her head: "Your Excellency is too famous, and a commoner's wife is ashamed."

Yu Yun smiled: "Someone is an idler who came with Mr. Wang, Madam doesn't need to call him an adult."

Mrs. Xu Bai patted Mrs. Tian's wrist, and Mrs. Tian got up immediately to salute: "The porridge is still cooking in the kitchen, I need to go and have a look, please excuse me first."

Feng Tai withdrew his hand from Xu Weng's wrist: "Wait a minute, please hold the old lady's arm and let the student see the doctor."

Tian then rolled up Xu Bai's sleeves and put a handkerchief on his elbow. Feng Tai took the pulse with his fingers, and Yu Yun said in a warm voice: "Young Madam's voice is gentle, unlike the people in the capital, but her native place is in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Tian's eyelashes lowered: "The woman from Jiangbei, wandering since she was a child, fortunately, her husband's family did not abandon her, so she has to be a maid who sweeps the dust and serves as a bather."

Yu Yun said softly: "Listen to Madam's words, but she is knowledgeable and reasonable."

Tian's solemn salute: "A poor family and lowly concubine, how dare you be honored as a son." Turning to the door, Feng Tai withdrew his hand from Xu Bai's wrist: "Dare to ask the young lady, the old lady usually eats little and light? "

Mrs. Tian stopped at the threshold: "My mother-in-law is a vegetarian. She eats more soup and porridge and some steamed side dishes on weekdays. In the past few days, due to excessive grief, she only drank some plain porridge."

Feng Tai nodded: "And the old man usually eats greasy and salty food, such as marinated or marinated meat, and it's good to drink, right?"

Tian nodded.

Feng Tai said again: "The two elders often feel dizzy, feel weak in the feet, and have heart palpitations from time to time."

Xu Weng, Xu Baishi and Tianshi nodded together. Tian said: "My father-in-law took some Yangxin pills from the pharmacy on the street, and took them with my mother-in-law every day. In the past few days, the doctor at the pharmacy also picked up some medicines for daily storage. My concubine went to fetch them and showed them to the husband. "

Feng Tai said solemnly: "No need, the root causes of the two old people are opposite. If you take the same medicine, you must have made a mistake. When I write two new prescriptions, I only use this medicine. Pay attention to the medicines of the two old people. Don’t confuse them. The students draw up two other food lists, and prepare meals for the two of them every day according to this list.”

Tian replied again, and turned to the door again: "My concubine is going to get a pen and paper."

Wang Yan said: "Don't bother Madam, the paper and pen will be fetched by someone. Madam seems to be very weak, sir, let's make a diagnosis together."

Tian said timidly: "Poverty women and maidservants dare not bother you."

Wang Yan waved his hand: "Nothing to excuse me. The perpetrator may have stepped on your house a little bit, or even poisoned you. It is part of handling the case to see a doctor. Where is your husband, he has to come for a consultation." Take a pulse."

Tian said: "My husband has a leg problem and can't get out of bed. The woman will help him wash up first, so that he can see the adults."

Feng Tai said: "Ma'am, check the pulse first before going too late. If there is labor, the pulse will be inaccurate."

Tian made a decision, Fushen said, "Then I would like to thank my lord, and please take care of me, sir."

Feng Tai took out two balls from the medicine box, handed them to Wang Yan's servant, and asked him to wait for the two elderly people to take them with warm water. The entourage brought a small table and two small stools, Tian Shi and Feng Tai sat down opposite each other in the hall, Tian Shi put her wrist on the small cotton pillow, put on a handkerchief, and raised her sleeve, Feng Tai grasped her wrist pulse.

"Madam's veins are calm and strong, and she has good internal strength. It must be a child's skill practiced since childhood."

Tian's face showed fear: "Sir, what did you say?" But her wrist turned violently, the pointed nails just touched Feng Tai's skin, her arm suddenly became weak, and then, two knives rested on her neck, and the attendant quickly grabbed her wrist gill, and stuffed a cloth ball into her mouth.

Xu Weng and Xu Bai raised their eyes in a daze, and Xu Bai rolled his eyes upwards. Feng Tai quickly took out the silver needles from the medicine box and inserted them into Xu Bai's acupuncture points.

Wang Yan got up and walked over: "I never thought Mr. Feng is really proficient in medicine, disrespect and disrespect."

Xu Weng trembled like chaff, unable to speak: "My lord, this, this..."

Wang Yan said succinctly: "This is Feng Tongpan, the newcomer from Jingzhao Mansion, who makes my daughter-in-law extraordinary. I, together with Mr. Feng, made her reveal her true form today."

Xu Weng's throat clucked: "My lord is saying, Fang Niang, she, she, she..." With a sway of his figure, he also leaned back, Feng Tai stepped forward with a blank expression, and also applied pressure on Xu Weng's big acupoints. Needle.

"If Feng hadn't fed the two of them two Baoxin Pills just now, the two elders might not be able to stand the big show of Mr. Wang."

Wang Yan glanced at Tian's: "Hu Zi refused to come to Xu's house to steal the parrot, and insisted on going all out to do it in the market. I knew there must be something strange in Xu's house, and it should be among Xu's son or daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law is the most likely But I don't think this woman dares to come out to meet you, she is really extraordinary. What is the origin?"

Yu Yun said: "Take off her shoes and socks, maybe you can know the clue."

The entourage immediately took off Tian's shoes and socks, Xu Bai's eyes just slightly opened a slit, seeing this situation, he turned over again.

Yu Yun then ordered his followers: "Look at the sides of the front of this woman's feet, as well as between the thumb and the second finger for any abnormalities."

The attendant observed according to the words: "This woman has calluses on the sides of her feet and between her two fingers."

Xue Mulin was surprised: "It's because of wearing wooden clogs all the year round, she is... a woman from Dongying?!"

Wen Yizhi was taken aback for a moment: "Why are people from Dongying running away again?"

Wang Yan bowed his hands to Feng Taigong: "Thank you, Mr. Feng, for being willing to cooperate with me this time. To show the sincerity of cooperation, this Dongying woman and the two elders of the Xu family are at the disposal of Jingzhaofu and Mr. Feng."

Feng Tai remained expressionless: "Master Wang, can you tell Feng Mou the others as well?"

Wang Yan raised his lips: "Of course. It's time for dinner, and I've ordered someone to prepare a banquet. Please move, Mr. Feng."

Feng Tai nodded.
