Hanged Ghost (4)
Yu Zicheng thought about it and had no other choice but to find He Youcai who helped A Qiu escape. After waiting in front of He's house for a whole day, I finally saw He Youcai in the evening. He Youcai went out and took a look. He seemed to have seen the young man in front of the door somewhere before. Before he could ask, Yu Zicheng said Walked forward.
"Brother He."
"You are..." He Youcai looked at Yu Zicheng and suddenly remembered. "Are you Mr. Yu who was at Jingxiangzhai that day?"
"Exactly." Yu Zicheng answered with clasped fists, looked around, and whispered, "I wonder if Brother He can lend me a step to speak?"
Although He Youcai is uneducated and has no skills, he has a heart that likes to make friends, so he said: "Brother Yu, please come here."
He Youcai took Yu Zicheng to a nearby alley. The alley was narrow and not many people passed by. Yu Zicheng looked around cautiously and said in a low voice: "To be honest, Brother He, I was influenced by Miss Aqiu." Please come to find you."
"Aqiu?" He Youcai was surprised.
Yu Zicheng nodded and replied: "Miss Aqiu is at my house now. She told me everything about you. I know that Brother He is a good person, so I came to see Brother He to discuss a major matter."
"What's the big deal?"
"Miss Aqiu's father..." Yu Zicheng looked at He Youcai, knowing that He Youcai must also know the news.
He Youcai listened, nodded and replied: "I understand, does Aqiu know about this?"
"Well, although Yu has good intentions, there is no reliable person in Suzhou City. As a last resort, he came to ask Brother He for advice."
"This matter is not easy to handle. Last time I helped Aqiu escape, and after my parents found out, I got a good beating. For this, I also offended the Zhou family. This time, the Zhou family must have a good relationship. He used A Qiu's father as a bait to lure A Qiu into being deceived, and the purpose should be to capture A Qiu." It is true that He Youcai doesn't study, but he is not brainless, and he also has some opinions of his own on the whole matter.
Yu Zicheng nodded and replied: "Brother He is right, that's why I came alone."
"Yes, yes, yes, don't let Aqiu return to Suzhou City. If she comes back, she will be caught by the Zhou family. If the Zhou family threatens Aqiu with her uncle's life, Aqiu may be stupid." As he said that, He Youcai frowned.
Yu Zicheng asked hurriedly: "In Brother He's opinion, what should we do? The day after tomorrow is the day when A Qiu's father will be executed. If the Zhou family hadn't seen A Qiu that time, they would have dealt with the matter ruthlessly. Ah Qiu will definitely be very sad when the time comes."
"Don't be impatient, you have to think about this matter carefully." He Youcai held a fan in his hand, patting it, and suddenly made a sound and whispered: "Maybe there is someone who can help us."
"who?"
"Zhou Wenwu."
"Didn't Zhou Wenwu force Aqiu to marry him? It's the Zhou family that's causing trouble now. How can he help?"
"It's a bit more difficult, but it's not impossible." He Youcai bit his lip, thought of a strategy, and whispered it in Yu Zicheng's ear.
Yu Zicheng heard this and was a little skeptical: "Is this feasible?"
"At this point, we can only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor." This is the best way He Youcai came up with, and it is also a very risky way.
It turns out that Zhou Wenwu was a lustful person who liked to hang out in places with fireworks, but he was afraid of being discovered by me, so he always thought about Fang Er's deception at home. Unlike other children from official families, although the Zhou family can be considered an official family, they are very disgusted with the land of fireworks. This started with his maternal grandfather. Zhou Wenwu's maternal grandfather also served as an official in the court. Not big, but he is still a person who eats royal food, lives an easy life, and can speak up in the local area. But one day, the emperor suddenly investigated Zhou Wenwu's grandfather because his grandfather accidentally provoked a fireworks woman. If it had been anyone else, nothing would have happened. Unfortunately, the fireworks woman had some connections with the emperor. In the end, of course, it didn't end well, and Zhou Wenwu's grandfather was dismissed from office. This incident made Zhou Wenwu's maternal grandfather very worried, so he set a family motto that future generations should not be greedy for pleasure, otherwise they would be kicked out of the family and they would not even be buried in the Zhou family cemetery. This rule is very harsh. In Zhou Wenwu's father's generation, both Zhou Wenwu's father and Zhou Wenwu's uncle took these trainings very seriously. Especially now that Zhou Wenwu's uncle is also an official, he is naturally more cautious. So Zhou Wenwu kept it secret from his family every time he went to Firework Alley.
He Youcai planned to invite Zhou Wenwu to the urn... So he took some money and went out to inquire about the arrangements, and then arranged for Yu Zicheng to go in first.
At night, Zhou Wenwu sneaked out of his house secretly, accompanied by his followers. They went directly to the Manhua Building. Looking at the Yingying Yanyan twisting her waist and smiling charmingly in front of the door, Zhou Wenwu felt secretly happy. , glanced at the attendant and asked: "Have you done everything?"
"Don't worry, young master, Miss Wanqing is yours tonight."
"Well done!" Zhou Wenwu walked into the Manhua Building with a look of lust on his face, without doubting that there was fraud.
The madam greeted him warmly and led Zhou Wenwu directly into a room. As soon as he entered, Zhou Wenwu smelled the charming fragrance in the room, like body fragrance, like the fragrance of flowers. Then he looked at the beauty sitting in front of the table, his sweetheart. The girl just kept jumping, and she rushed forward with a look of impatient urgency, and took the beauty's hand: "Miss Wanqing, you make me think so hard."
Wanqing is the top star in Manhualou. She is famous for her skills but not her body. Many famous and wealthy people have spent thousands of dollars but they can't replace her for one night. Zhou Wenwu has been coveting Wanqing for a long time and failed to succeed. If not for this, he would be here today. You won't pretend to be sick and run out at night even if you know something is going on at home.
Zhou Wenwu touched Wanqing's hand, barely drooling on the spot, and said lustfully: "Miss Wanqing,
I miss you so much…”
"Hey, Mr. Zhou, why are you in such a hurry?" Wan Qing smiled slightly, took her hand out of Zhou Wenwu's hand, picked up the wine flask, filled the wine glass in front of Zhou Wenwu with good wine, and then raised her own cup. "Master Zhou's feelings for Wanqing, Wanqing wishes Master Zhou a drink."
"..." Zhou Wenwu didn't care about talking, picked up the wine glass, poured it into his mouth, drank it, put down the glass after drinking, and held Wan Qing's hand again. "Miss Wanqing is truly a beauty from heaven and country. It makes me think about her day and night..."
"True?" Wan Qing glanced at Zhou Wenwu and suddenly stood up, her face seemed unhappy.
Zhou Wenwu was like a toad in front of Wan Qing. Wherever Wan Qing stood, he followed. He caught up with her in two steps, stopped Wan Qing, and replied loudly: "Do I, Zhou, have any feelings for Wan Qing's girl?" Fake? Miss Wanqing, can’t you tell?"
Wan Qing turned back, glanced at Zhou Wenwu, and asked with a smile: "If Mr. Zhou is sincere to Wan Qing, then why does Mr. Zhou marry someone else?"
"..." Zhou Wenwu's two thief eyes rolled. He didn't expect that Wan Qing would know that he wanted to marry A Qiu. How could he admit it in front of Wan Qing, so he lied: "Wan Qing The girl doesn't know something. This is my father's intention, not my Zhou's. I, Zhou, dare to swear to heaven that I am sincere to Miss Wanqing, and heaven and earth can learn from it."
"I don't believe it..." Wan Qing turned around and didn't look at Zhou Wenwu.
When Zhou Wenwu saw that the beauty was about to be obtained, he became anxious and asked quickly: "How can Miss Wanqing miss my, Zhou's, love for you?"
"Unless you use an eight-carat sedan chair to reveal the marriage to the matchmaker." After Wan Qing finished saying this, she looked back at Zhou Wenwu.
Zhou Wenwu never dreamed that Wanqing would say this, because everyone knows that pleasure is ruthless, but Wanqing is different from other prostitutes. Although she is the number one in Manhualou, she has an innocent body and can possess it. Wanqing has almost been Zhou Wenwu's dream for some time. As for marrying, he has never thought about it. Firstly, he is afraid that his family will not agree, and secondly, he is afraid that Wanqing will look down on him. Now that Wanqing has said this, he has no idea what to do. Continue.
Looking at Zhou Wenwu who was stunned, Wan Qing chuckled softly: "Since Mr. Zhou is not sincere, please come back!"
"Miss Wanqing..."
"Why, are you reluctant to part with the money you spent? If so, just ask my mother to pay you back. I won't take this small amount of money seriously."
"Miss Wanqing misunderstood, I, Zhou, did not mean this..." Zhou Wenwu was despised by Wanqing, and felt anxious in his heart. Of course, he knew that Wanqing was not a person who valued money. If this was the case, it would not be his turn now. When Zhou Wenwu entered Wanqing's room, there were many dignitaries in front of him. After thinking about it, he suddenly realized why he wanted to marry Aqiu? Isn't it just because Aqiu is beautiful? Speaking of beauty, Wanqing is not inferior to Aqiu at all, but the beauty is different. Now that he can't marry Aqiu anyway, he might as well... The more Zhou Wenwu thought about it, the more he was right. He took Wanqing's hand and said: " Miss Wanqing, whether I, Zhou, am sincere will be revealed in the future. I will go back and discuss with my father now, and we will definitely marry Miss Wanqing into my Zhou family in an eight-carriage sedan!"
Wan Qing looked at Zhou Wenwu and asked with a smile: "Is this true?"
"If Miss Wanqing doesn't believe it, I will put this heirloom jade pendant here with Miss Wanqing. If Zhou can't do it in the future, it will be fine if Miss Wanqing doesn't return it to me." Zhou Wenwu is obviously serious, and the jade is his Grandpa passed down that only by owning this piece of jade can one have the right to inherit the Zhou family's property.
Wanqing reached out and took the jade in her hand, and said with a smile: "Then Wanqing is waiting for the good news from Mr. Zhou."
"Yes." Zhou Wenwu nodded and left Wanqing's room in a hurry.
As soon as he left, Wanqing hurriedly locked the door. She breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to the person behind the screen: "Master Yu, you can come out now."
The figure behind the screen shook, and a big living person walked out of it. This person was Yu Zicheng. It was lucky that he had some friendship with Wanqing. When He Youcai said that he would set up a beauty trap for Zhou Wenwu, Yu Zi The first thing Cheng thought of was Wanqing.
"Thank you Miss Wanqing."
"Master Yu, why do you need to thank me? If you hadn't saved Wanqing that day, I'm afraid Wanqing would have fallen into the hands of the thieves." Wanqing smiled slightly. Even though two years have passed, she still has not forgotten Yu Zicheng's love for her. She was so kind to her. If Yu Zicheng hadn't saved her desperately two years ago, she would have been insulted by those thieves. Although she was a brothel girl, she valued her chastity very much and risked her life to preserve it. This is why no one can The reason for forcing her to submit.
