Chapter 222 One step daughter, Pan Nangtai(2/2)
Someone comes to check?”
Fan Xiaodao said, "I think it's okay!"
Pan Jiantai said, "I don't think you can do it. Thanks to the magistrate, you have to take good care of these six doors." He glanced at everyone and said, "Go back to the house!"
Having said that, he took his followers with him and never left his head.
So perfunctory?
Fan Xiaodao hadn't even had time to take out the confession in his arms.
Tan Shifei sneered, "You are a little too young to fight with me."
The crowd dispersed.
Tan Shifei came to Fan Xiaodao and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Fan, for escaping a disaster!"
Fan Xiaodao said, "The person who escaped was probably Mr. Tan, right?"
Tan Shifei was stunned and asked, "What do you mean, sir?"
Fan Xiaodao laughed, "I just said it casually. Since the victim has withdrawn the case, Li and Wang, the two arresting heads, don't need to be locked up. Let them go."
Back at the office, Fan Xiaodao sighed sadly.
He could have taken the opportunity to strike, but Pan Zhengtai's so-called investigation was just a formality, and it only took two cups of tea.
But what he didn't know was that last night, Tan Shifei paid a visit to Pan Jiantai and paid him 10,000 taels of silver.
It's only five or six hundred steps from the Taifu Prefecture to the prefect's Yamen.
It is not an exaggeration to say that one step makes a thousand gold.
Arriving at the door, Fan Xiaodao saw Mrs. Jiang.
Mrs. Chiang rented a carriage with large and small gifts and packages on it. Was she going on a long trip?
He stepped forward and asked, "Where is Mrs. Chiang going?"
Mrs. Chiang said, "Everyone is dead, so what's the use of continuing to investigate? Last night, he sent someone to bring a thousand taels of silver to buy our mouths. We, orphans and widowed, had no one to rely on, so we collected the money.
Leave Jinling City."
"But the real culprit is still at large!"
Mrs. Jiang said, "Even if you catch me, can you bring my husband back to life? Can you produce a thousand taels of silver? Mr. Fan, we don't pursue justice and fairness, we just want a peaceful life."
Li Sicheng and Wang Silian also walked out of the Yamen.
Seeing Fan Xiaodao, he quickly saluted, "Master Fan!"
The two of them were also released, the victim also received money, and neither Tan Shifei nor himself was implicated. Everyone seemed happy, but for some reason, Fan Xiaodao felt extremely unhappy.
There seemed to be a fire in my heart.
Fan Xiaodao said, "You guys are out?"
Li Sicheng said, "Thank you for your blessing."
The two came to Mrs. Jiang's car and said, "Master Tan asked us to send my sister-in-law out of the city to prevent anyone from causing trouble."
Mrs. Jiang said, "Thank you, sir."
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Colonel Jiang is also our brother after all. It's just a matter of effort."
Fan Xiaodao remained silent as he watched the carriage slowly leave.
…
Fan Xiaodao found an excuse and released Zhao Xing.
Zhao Xingdao said, "Did we get it wrong?"
Fan Xiaodao told Zhao Xing about Pan Jiantai's performance. After Zhao Xing listened, he said in a deep voice, "It seems that the water in Jinling's officialdom and the rivers and lakes is muddier than we thought."
Fan Xiaodao said, "Fortunately, since you are here, my experience card for the first two days of the arrest has also expired. I will quickly wash up, shave my beard, change my clothes, and take you to see Mr. Xie.
I can't even recognize you when you look like this."
Zhao Xing waved his hand, "This matter is not urgent. At this moment, you are in the open and I am in the dark. It is easier to do things. If our identities are exposed, we will be easily targeted."
Fan Xiaodao said, "I am the one being targeted now."
Zhao Xingdao said, "Yes, you are responsible for resisting damage, and I am responsible for output. We have a clear division of labor. When the time comes, we should cooperate internally and externally to uproot the man named Tan and the forces behind him, and wipe them all out!"
"I feel like you're trying to trick me!"
Zhao Xingdao said, "We are brothers, will I cheat you? By the way, is there any clue about the counterfeit money?"
Fan Xiaodao said, "I've only been here two days and I'm already exhausted. Do you think I have time to check this?"
Zhao Xingdao said, "This further reflects the necessity of keeping my identity secret! Get some money first."
Fan Xiaodao said, "No money."
Zhao Xingdao said, "Don't think I don't know. Before leaving Beijing, His Highness gave you five thousand taels of silver to fund our Jiangnan activities. Not to mention the money, you also bought rouge and gouache for the little lady living in the courtyard.
"
Fan Xiaodao frowned, "The Zhao Xing I know is cold and steady. How come he has become such a bitch now?"
Zhao Xing smiled and said, "Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to Ink are black. Are you Zhu or Mo?"
Fan Xiaodao didn't answer and asked, "Who is that woman?"
Zhao Xingdao said, "I won't borrow it anymore!"
…
Nothing happened in the morning. Fan Xiaodao returned to the yard and asked Fan Huowu to talk about Tinkerbell's reading.
He had made a choice, and it was Li Xiangwan's Dangyang Academy.
Li Xiangwan is a hermit in the south of the Yangtze River. Although he is well-known, very few people know his true identity. Since His Highness the Crown Prince trusts him so much, it would be a good idea to find him to teach Tinker Bell privately.
After giving Tinkerbell a new set of clothes, Fan Xiaodao informed the door, and the three of them left the six doors.
After arriving in Jinling, Tinkerbell hardly went out. Now she finally had the opportunity to take a good look at Jinling City. There are rows of shops with all kinds of goods that are dizzying. There are shopkeepers selling knick-knacks, some performing tricks, and some playing blowjobs.
A sweet child, curious about new things, very excited along the way.
Fan Huowu, on the other hand, seemed to be preoccupied and didn't speak much.
Fan Xiaodao asked, "I heard from Tinker Bell that you are looking for a job?"
Fan Huowu nodded and said: "We have found it."
"do what?"
Fan Huowu said, "I sell wine in a wine shop."
Fan Xiaodao asked, "Why do you do this?"
Fan Huowu said, "I don't know anything else, so I can't be a killer and kill people, right?"
Fan Xiaodao said, "You can always live in the yard. The place is big anyway, and your martial arts skills are so good, I can pay to hire you as my bodyguard."
"No need!"
"Why?"
Fan Huowu said, "First, you are an official, and you don't need bodyguards because you cheer before going out. Second, your martial arts skills are not weaker than mine, so you don't need my protection at all. Third, I have hands and feet, so I don't need any bodyguards."
Come and have mercy on me."
"When did I take pity on you? I treat you as friends and relatives."
Fan Huowu's pretty eyes were filled with frost, and she quickly took a few steps to distance herself from Fan Xiaodao.
Fan Xiaodao smiled bitterly and said, "Women... are such complicated animals."
After passing another street, Fan Huowu suddenly stopped at the corner. Just as Fan Xiaodao was curious, Fan Huowu grabbed a walking man.
"What are you doing?"
Fan Huowu said, "Who are you and why do you follow us?"
The man tilted his head and said, "The road is facing the sky, everyone goes to one side. When did I follow you?"
Fan Huowu said coldly, "You were sneaky and followed you from Zhuque Street to here. Don't think I don't know."
The man sneered, "Is this your way? You can walk it, but I can't?"
Fan Xiaodao looked at the man. He was careless and careless. His steps were frivolous and he didn't seem to have any martial arts, so he didn't pay attention to him. Unexpectedly, he was caught by Fan Huowu.
He asked: "Are you from Tan Shifei?"
The man said, "Who is Tan Shifei? I don't know him."
They had just arrived in Jinling and had no acquaintances in the city. The only enemy under the tree was Tan Shifei. If he hadn't sent someone to keep an eye on them, who would have been so concerned about their whereabouts?
Fan Huowu pulled out a machete and placed it across his neck. "There are two arteries in a person's neck. As long as I cut one of yours with a light stroke, you will bleed to death within ten steps."
