Chapter 1923: Singing an opera

Zhou Hao: "The murderer is a master of needles, while Zhai Lanye is good at embroidery and is also a master of needles. She appears next to Zhou Xianyi. If she appeared in Chunxi class ten years ago, she would be more suspicious."
Yuan Jinxia thought it was unreliable. That Zhai Lanye was a weak woman and could not tell that she could do martial arts.
Although he is also a master of needle use, can the master of needle use of embroidery and the master of needle use of murderers be the same?
However, Zhou Hao arranged the job and she had to do it.
-------------------------------------
Zhou Hao and Hua Manlou were drinking tea and playing Go. It seemed a bit bullying to play chess with a blind man.
But Zhou Hao disdains cheating.
Hua Manlou once said that Zhou Hao was very proud, he had never seen such a proud person.
As for martial arts, the two have also discussed it.
Zhou Hao didn't use all his strength, and Hua Manlou didn't even touch the corner of Zhou Hao's clothes.
Hua Manlou felt that this was Zhou Hao’s proud capital.
In fact, he doesn't understand that Zhou Hao's capital comes from his identity as a time traveler.
The two of them talked about the case while playing chess.
Hua Manlou: "As far as I know, the needle god, Mrs. Xue, a master of needles in the world, is a very mysterious person. She is called the embroidery thief. He also embroidered needles as weapons."
The Embroidered Thief? Zhou Hao knew it was Jin Jiuling, the chief constable of Liusanmen, but that guy committed the crime to create a seamless case.
Although this case is not simple, it is exaggerated to say that it is seamless.
As for Mrs. Xue from Shenzhen Villa, it is even more impossible. She is already a senior in her seventies and eighties.
It seems to be inseparable from Zhou Xianyi and Yun Zhayue.
Hua Manlou: "The disciples of Shenzhen Villa are all their own families, and they generally don't walk around the world, and it is even more unlikely to kill people for money. This kind of ancient villa is not short of money."
Zhou Hao was a little disappointed and originally planned to borrow Huamanlou's forces from the world to get some clues.
"A few years ago, I had the honor to meet Xue Bing, the granddaughter of the Needle God. She came to Yangzhou and said she was visiting a senior sister. The senior sister was the daughter of the registered disciple of the Needle God, and she was not much older than Xue Bing."
Zhou Hao's eyes lit up and said, "Oh? What's that senior sister's name?"
Hua Manlou: "It seems that he is named Ye Lan. When he was a child, his whole family was destroyed by his enemies. It was Shenzhen Villa who came forward to protect her. However, Shenzhen Villa did not avenge her family, so she was not close to Shenzhen Villa, but her relationship with Xue Bing was pretty good."
Ye Lan? Orchid!
Zhou Hao could almost immediately connect the relationship.
Hua Manlou had never seen Ye Lan, so he could not provide other information.
But based on this information, Zhou Hao can already be sure of it.
Of course, it is far-fetched to arrest people directly. He is the Jinyiwei, but he also has his own bottom line. It is impossible to arrest people without evidence.
-------------------------------------
When Zhou Hao returned to the official post, Yuan Jinxia also brought good news to Zhou Hao.
Yang Yue brought bad news: The Feng Shui master of that year has been dead for three years at the age of 56.
But that doesn't matter anymore, Yuan Jinxia's good news is very timely.
The headmaster recognized Zhou Hao's portrait. Zhai Lanye was an apprentice in Chunxi class and his name was Xiaolan.
And she was very close to Yun Zhayue.
Yuan Jinxia: "Sir, Zhai Lanye is the descendant of Shenzhen Villa. She has something to do with Yun Zheyue and Zhou Xian. We should arrest someone and close the case, right?"
Zhou Hao shook his head: "We can't find anyone to prove her identity as a Divine Needle Villa, and it's easy to catch the murderer and it's difficult to find the person behind the scenes. The Yangzhou officialdom is not clean. We must find a way to lure her to attack and capture her on the spot. It's best to let her recruit the envoy behind the scenes on the spot."
The prefect Wei Ying once hinted that Zhou Hao would close the case soon, but was scolded by Zhou Hao.
This guy is likely to have been instructed by someone. If he was directly arrested in prison, he might be silenced that night.
That Zhou Xian is already a lesson in the past. Don’t you disturb anyone from going to the official prison to kill people?
Is this treating people like a fool? Even if Zhou Hao comes, he has to control the guards before he can enter.
Yuan Jinxia's eyes turned and laughed, "Sir, I have an idea."
Zhou Hao was so stern: "Don't keep it a secret!"
Yuan Jinxia smiled and said, "Surrender ghosts and attract souls, and lead snakes out of the cave!"
Zhou Hao suddenly realized and smiled and said, "It's interesting!"
......
In fact, Yuan Jinxia’s plan is very simple, which is to use the haunted legend of Langyuan.
Some people have always said that the clouds block the moon and the dark souls are not dispersed, so Langyuan is haunted.
In this era, everyone believes in the sayings of ghosts and gods.
Even scholars who are wise will "respect ghosts and gods and stay away from them."
So her method is very useful.
But the difficulty of the problem is to find someone who can sing "the first fragrance".
Yuan Jinxia has learned from Zhou Hao, and both of them can sing, but Zhou Hao must be present as a loyal and brave man and Jinyiwei.
Yuan Jinxia also has to be responsible for pretending to be a Taoist priest to lead the clouds and moon out.
So the question is, who will pretend to be clouds and block the moon?
Yuan Jinxia’s solution was to find an actor who was about the same height as Yunzhayue and let him learn the “first fragrance”.
The time should be almost the same, and the singing should not be exactly the same as the clouds and moons.
So many years have passed, and not many people remember the sound of clouds and moons.
In addition, it is definitely difficult to tell whether it is true or false if it is scared.
Moreover, the person who sang the most incense back then was not Yunzhayue. It is normal that Yunzhayue’s voice was unfamiliar.
Zhai Lanye should be able to hear it, but this doesn't matter.
At that time, Zhou Hao will express his suspicion and she will definitely be in panic.
If a person’s mind is no longer calm, his ability to distinguish will also decrease.
-------------------------------------
Three days later.
The substitute is already proficient in those few lines of singing. He doesn't need to sing the whole show, just a bright sound.
After putting on makeup, he asked the head teacher to take a look. The head teacher said it was very similar. If he saw it at night, he would be scared to pee.
Everything is ready.
......
The lights are on.
On the banks of Huaisi River.
Zhou Hao held a banquet here, saying that he wanted to invite celebrities from Yangzhou to listen to the opera.
Zhou Hao sat in a casual outfit in the corridor along the river.
There was a pavilion across the river in front of him, and the pavilion was covered with white gauze.
The pavilion is the stage.
It was so far away, and it was night again, and even those who knew Yun Zhayue could not recognize it.
Zhou Hao deliberately arrived in advance to check if there were any mistakes or omissions.
But Yuan Jinxia made a good arrangement and there were no omissions.
It was the helper I found to make Zhou Hao dislike it.
In front of the pavilion is an altar.
Yuan Jinxia and Xie Xiao dressed up as Taoists and were studying how to appear there.
Xie Xiao is an important supporting role. Unless Zhou Hao kills him, it will be difficult for him to disappear forever.
But now Zhou Hao has no intention of killing him, unless Xie Xiao provokes him again.
A quarter of an hour later.
Yuan Jinxia and Xie Xiao have already hidden themselves.
The celebrities in Yangzhou invited by Zhou Hao have arrived, and Huamanlou has also arrived.
The two of them are already good friends, and even if they are acting, they have to invite him.
Zhou Hao sat in the middle with a big golden sword.
The prefect Wei Ying brought the people from the officialdom to the last place.
He also brought Zhai Lanye, who of course was invited.
If she doesn't come, the show will not be able to be sung.
Zhou Hao stood up but did not move. Instead, Wei Ying and the officials took a few steps to salute Zhou Hao.
"I have met the loyal and brave uncle!" the officials said in unison.
Zhou Hao laughed and said, "Everyone is free, just sit down."
Hua Manlou is not a person in the officialdom, so he did not sit with Zhou Hao.
Wei Ying sat on the left of Zhou Hao, and on the right was Tongzhi of Yangzhou Prefecture.
On the right is Zhai Lanye.
Chapter completed!
