Return to the Qing Dynasty (77)

Mo Wenlong was in the sedan chair at the gate of the Zhou family's courtyard, and he didn't wait long before he saw Zhou Tong come over to greet him in person.

The sedan chair is the most ordinary sedan chair, and the sedan chair man is not the sedan chair man in the yamen, walking on the street, it should be very few people to know, and it is the prefect who sits here. Even the attendant who followed outside the sedan chair was not the great butler, but a very inconspicuous descendant.

Zhou Tong felt that either someone else was an official, look at other people's affairs, this meticulous energy, stay better than him. It's the same to go all the way to the Ninth Master to report the news this time, now think about it, what is this thing called.

I was annoyed in my heart, and my face inevitably had a little remorse.

This made Mo Wenlong, who was looking out through the sedan curtain, look at Zhou Tong by two points.

He took this remorse as a regret for showing his mouth yesterday. In fact, this is not authentic, I only met Zhou one day before and informed me of the news, and I found it the next day. This can't stand up to investigation, if someone really asks, just ask. If the Ninth Master knew, he was afraid that he would have some opinions about Zhou Tong. Do you dare to show such an important thing? Living here and trusting you, that's how you treat this trust?

It has affected the ninth master's impression of him, but I'm afraid that his business will be affected somewhat.

With such an apology, he took the initiative to raise the curtains when Zhou Tong came, revealing a big gap to take the initiative to greet Zhou Tong, very affectionate, and called him Brother Zhou, "...... I'll forgive me......"

Zhou Tong was slightly stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, and then returned the salute, even saying that he would not dare, as if none of you and I could afford to offend, "...... Don't be in a hurry to get off the car, please ...... inside"

The sedan chair went directly to the door of the second gate of the other courtyard, Mo Wenlong came out of the sedan chair, and then pointed inside, and asked Zhou Tong with his eyes whether the ninth master was inside.

Zhou Tong nodded slightly, then stood solemnly outside the door, and did not go inside.

Mo Wenlong didn't dare to make a mistake, so he only stood outside obediently with this Zhou Tong. This is half an hour.

When the sun came out and the light was a little dazzling, Mo Wenlong changed his center of gravity slightly with his feet, and whispered to Zhou Channel: "Brother Zhou, the angel came to Hangzhou unexpectedly, this is not only a matter of this mansion, but also a major event for the people of Hangzhou." What is important, if Brother Zhou knows a thing or two, he might as well say it bluntly, so that he can be prepared in the future. ”

It's 'Brother Zhou' again, and it's 'below' again.

A fourth-grade official, to a businessman so low-minded, even with the support of the ninth master, Zhou Tong also beat the drum in his heart, he laughed a little dryly, "Don't be joking, adults, you really look down on the small." ”

Mo Wenlong waved his hand, only smiled, and didn't continue to ask, as if he had skipped the topic, and talked about something else, "...... I heard that the Chamber of Commerce has been very lively lately?"

Zhou Tong couldn't keep up with this adult's thinking, he naturally knew about the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce, and he was in charge of the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce, and he knew everything about everything. The reason why it has been very lively recently is that the Chamber of Commerce wants to build a academy outside the city of Hangzhou. This academy does not have any four books and five classics, but only teaches arithmetic. There's no way around it if you don't. Now the imperial court seems to be employing people everywhere, and has set up examinations for various subjects, as long as you are qualified, you can at least have a public position in various departments and yamen. Boil, the little officials who □□ the products can also do it. When you are old, even if it is out of comfort, you can generally give seven products, which is considered a comfort.

But once it becomes a seven-pin, it's different. Feng wife Yinzi, not only can you ask the old lady and wife to be sealed, but also in the court, it can be regarded as an official eunuch. Although it can't be shaded, once the court changes, future generations will benefit immensely. Therefore, many bookkeepers have done well with high salaries, but after being admitted to that qualification certificate, they quit at all as soon as they were assigned errands. I went to do the errands of the court conscientiously. People are running for the future, who can stop them?

As a result, there is a shortage of manpower.

The remaining accounts are getting paid more and more, not to mention, and they may not be invited. As soon as it is said that one day, this proprietor will have to beg his buddy, who can feel comfortable?

But you have to endure the discomfort.

Endure this and can't bear to come up with tricks? Isn't it just that no one can use it? This is simple, we all raise funds, raise funds to set up a school, and people who are interested and good at it can come to learn. It doesn't matter if you can't afford the tuition, we don't want it, the only condition is that after finishing from here, you have to give us three years of labor, and the salary will be paid, but you can't just say that you won't do it, you must work for three years. After that, we'll clear up. If you are willing to continue to do it, let's talk about the salary separately, and if you don't want to do it, we also look forward to a good future for others.

Now they are discussing, but whether the court allows this or not, and what the government will say, they still don't know what to do.

Now that the prefect asked this, Zhou Tong knew in his heart, and he wanted to say, "Look! You also have a place to use your own official right away." Although you can go up to the nobles in the capital, this county official is not as good as the current management. Convenient with people at their own convenience.

It's still the same rhetoric, but with the addition of specific things, people can't help but want to think about it.

The corners of Zhou Tong's mouth moved, he sighed almost inaudibly, looked around vigilantly, and then said in a low voice: "It's not that I don't say it, I really don't know this time." But the ninth master came alone, and he didn't bring the little brother......"

This means that it is not about finding out who is corrupt and taking bribes.

Mo Wenlong made up his mind in his heart, if he really investigated this matter, it was still the ninth master, then how big a corruption case would have to be to use such a big specification? It's going to be a big string. If this really happened, he was also jointly and severally responsible. There is only one crime of not investigating, and it can be reduced to three levels, and if you can't get it, you really have to start again from the Qipin County Order.

The imperial court's anti-corruption and bribery efforts were so strong and long-lasting that they were unheard of and unheard of in all dynasties. As soon as I heard about the angels and the nobles in the capital, the first thing that came to mind was who was unlucky, and the crime was a big crime!

Mo Wenlong's heart has always been hanging, and it is precisely because of this.

Now that I heard that it wasn't, I suddenly felt relieved.

But if that's not it, why can?

If you do things on the ground in Hangzhou, don't go through the government, and don't show up, then at least there must be a local from Hangzhou. Otherwise, it won't work. So, don't look at Zhou Tong's shirking, but he knows far more than he imagined.

Zhou Tong seemed to be unable to stand the scrutiny of his parents, and continued in a low voice: "...... The ninth master is to deal with business matters, which is the duty of the ninth master. As for the rest, there really isn't. As he spoke, he leaned closer to Mo Wenlong for two points, "I heard that a master dismissed from the Hangzhou Weaving Bureau got a machine, it seems that it is also used for weaving and dyeing cloth, and the ninth master is here for this." ”

I see.

Mo Wenlong believed eighty percent. Who doesn't know what Jiufujin is doing in the capital, it is said that it is not a loom, it is a silver mountain. Jiufu Jin is in charge of production, Jiu Ye is in charge of sales, and the two of them exchange a boatload of cloth for a boatload of silver, rice, and grain to be transported back. It's hard to imagine how much money you've made in the past few years.

Anyway, there are also a few merchants in Hangzhou who pooled money to get a boat, and I heard that they went to sea once, and they each operated well for three or five years. You know how big the profit is here.

There is fire in the eyes of money! If it is for this, the ninth master makes a special trip to this trip, it is reasonable.

Zhou Tong said in a low voice: "I guess I still want to build a factory in Hangzhou." I heard that two factories have been built in southern Fujian......"

Mo Wenlong doesn't really care about where to build a factory, what he cares about is, "Isn't this a fight with the Weaving Bureau?"

Zhou Tong was a little secretive, "The Weaving Bureau belongs to the Ministry of Internal Affairs." As for things, it's just for use. I heard that the Ninth Master wants to move more outward, and they are all humming and chirping here, which is not very refreshing......"

Of course! No one will be happy!

The weaving bureau is more noble than others in that it uses the top craftsmen of the imperial court to weave high-quality tributes that others do not have. This can only be used by the royal family, and when the emperor rewards him, the officials below will dare to use it. Of course, in Hangzhou, as long as such things are not labeled, those merchants' homes will also be used. But this reputation is different after all.

Now it is called such a person who feels that he is doing things for the emperor everywhere, and he goes to make fabrics and ornaments for the people outside the country to use, ahh

If you feel uncomfortable, won't you be passive and slack off?

But the ninth master is such an easy person to compromise. Don't do it, some people do it anyway.

Not to mention, this seems to be something that the Ninth Master would do.

I originally believed in eighty percent, but now it has really become ninety percent.

When someone came out of it, Mo Wenlong felt that he had a number in his heart.

Seeing that the ninth master also let go, he smiled and asked for sin, saying that the crime deserved to die, but he didn't know that the ninth master was coming, and it was very rude.

The ninth master smiled, pointed to the stool and asked someone to sit down, "I think you are a good prefect." Ye originally planned to come quietly and leave secretly. As a result, it was only a few days after settling here, and you came to the door. It can be seen that in the realm of Hangzhou, nothing can escape your eyes. Long live the Lord often said that the most basic thing for this official is to control again. Look, you're doing a good job. ”

Although this person's words are debatable, I don't know if Long Live Lord really said it, but it feels comfortable to listen to.

followed the topic of the ninth master and humbled himself for a few words, and talked about the customs of Hangzhou.

Anyway, the errand that people come here has nothing to do with the affairs of the court, so they can't be mentioned. Moreover, with the eighth master and the ninth master, it is somewhat taboo to talk about those. It's safer to eat and drink.

The Ninth Master also seemed to listen to it with relish, and he didn't forget to sigh and say, "When the first emperor made his second southern tour, the master was not among the entourage...... It's a pity......"

Mo Wenlong slapped his thigh, he was really careless, the ninth master is here, whether he wants to show up or not, there are some places he must go. In fact, there is no need to rush to the door, say that you can't wait a day or two, and you can meet by chance.

The ninth master can not go anywhere, but he can't not go to the place where the first emperor was lucky.

This is the most basic filial piety for the Son of Man.

Thinking about it like this, I was in such a hurry to come to the door, but I fell behind.

I was annoyed, but I didn't show it on my face, and immediately answered: "The lower official came to visit this time for this purpose. Even if the ninth master has no tolerance, this matter of paying homage to the first emperor is also a big deal. You see how you put the day after tomorrow, it's an auspicious day. ”

Only then did the ninth master show a few smiles, and praised Mo Wenlong for doing things.

So the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, the ninth master served tea, Mo Wenlong got up, and the old dog personally sent people out of the door. On the way, the two also exchanged two or three things that the ninth master likes and taboos, and reached a consensus that both parties are relatively satisfied.

As soon as this side was finished, Lin Yutong received the news, "The day after tomorrow?"

Zheng Jia lowered his head, "Yes! It's the day after tomorrow." ”

Time is really tight.

Lin Yutong got up, "Tell someone to prepare, I'll go to Mofu." ”

Went out of the inn in a low-key manner, got off the carriage in a less crowded place, and the stand-in quickly went up. When the carriage was far away, he saw the little sticky rod staring at him in surprise.

Lin Yutong smiled: "What are you looking at?"

"I didn't ...... It's nothing......" Little Sticky grinned and smiled, "I miss you all, or hello, she's not kind at all......"

This is a bad word for a stand-in.

Lin Yutong smiled and was speechless. The two of them were dressed as Taoist aunts, and they walked three or five miles before they entered the city.

As soon as he entered the city gate, he was stopped by the Mo family's steward, "Fairy Gu, you can tell us to wait." My wife has been on hunger strike for the past two days, and no doctor will call for it, just look for you. Aunt Bai sent us to wait here. If you don't come, the little ones will only be left to hang themselves. ”

Oh?

And such a thing?

If it weren't for the people's mouths, it would be impossible to know. After all, Madame is on a hunger strike, but Lord Mo Wenlong Mo has been very busy in the past two days, and he has not been idle here and there.

The little sticky rod pursed his lips vaguely, looking very disdainful of men.

took the carriage of the Mo family and went all the way to the Mo family. After entering the second gate, Aunt Bai waited at the second gate just like last time. As soon as he saw Lin Yutong coming, he hurriedly greeted him, "You can count it as coming, if you don't come, I will only hang myself." ”

The face is very ugly.

Lin Yutong saw that she would take herself to the main courtyard, but she paused, and looked very sorry, "Madame's illness is urgent, it is better to go and see the little young master first, the little young man is so young that he can't delay......"

It's already alive, what is there to see. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

A hint of gloom flashed in Aunt Bai's eyes. There is really no place that Chen Qiuniang's hands can't reach. I had only met before, and Aunt Dao, who had said that she was going to treat her husband well, immediately said goodbye. This time it was easy to come, but I went to her side first. What kind of doorway did you use?

She didn't speak, but Lin Yutong didn't stop at her feet, and she didn't need anyone to lead the way, so she went directly to Aunt Chen's yard.

Aunt Chen was surprised by the arrival of this person, and smiled solemnly, "...... It's called the fairy Gu to hang up, the child is already safe, but you have worked for nothing......"

Lin Yutong even said that it was okay, and said some things about raising children and some small home remedies for various common diseases of children, children are small, it is difficult to feed medicine, these small recipes are also used with ingredients, plus some small methods of massage, can indeed play a good effect.

When she said this, Aunt Chen really listened to it. It doesn't matter what you do to others, to your own son, it's all a mother's heart, and it's not adulterated at all.

After a delay of half an hour, Lin Yutong got up to say goodbye, "As soon as I talk about this, I forget the time." What a sin. I want to be busy in the past two days in your mansion, but I bother you......"

Aunt Chen was stunned for a moment, and then shook her head slightly, "You're polite......"

After a few words of greeting, Lin Yutong was sent all the way to the door of the small courtyard before turning back. When he came back, he beckoned the little girl next to him to come over, "Go and inquire, what's going on in the house?"

How can you talk about the busyness in the house?

Now that Bai Ju's girl is tossing, she is really going to become a deaf ear - an ornament.

Lin Yutong turned out from here and went to the main courtyard, but this time people were not in a hurry, and hung Lin Yutong aside.

Aunt Bai came in as kind as ever, and only said, "I'm snubbing the fairy girl." I'll ask the fairy girl to go back first. I'm really sorry, my aunt and grandmother sent someone from the capital to talk to my wife. I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for a few days. ”

What this means is that I don't want the girl who married into the Zhang family in the capital to know the true situation of her mother.

Anyway, Mrs. Mo is definitely reluctant to let her daughter follow her, she has to eat when she should eat. I'll have to fool around for a few days.

Lin Yutong lowered his eyelids, "Human nature is very understandable. Then he got up and took his leave, "Then wait ten days." At that time, Mrs. Mo is busy here, and Master Mo's side is also finished entertaining. I can also spare my time. ”

Aunt Bai said repeatedly: "Yes! Yes! I'm really embarrassed." He asked someone to bring the silver again, and the small sticky rods were all connected, and then he followed Lin Yutong out of the house.

After sending the people away, Aunt Bai's face changed, and she beckoned her mother-in-law to come over, "Inquire, what kind of guests does the master want to entertain over there?"

This Dao girl thought she heard something from Chen Qiuniang's slut.

The master too, Mrs. doesn't know, she doesn't know, but Chen Qiuniang knows.

Really...... She closed her eyes and looked into the side courtyard with a chilling chill in her eyes.

The little sticky pole got into the carriage and pouted as he loaded the silver, "I thought I could follow you for a few more days......?" Why are there so many things in the Mo family? When we entered the door, we hadn't heard that the aunt and grandmother had sent someone to come, and we had only been in for a long time before they came to the distinguished guests. He said without worry: "It won't delay us anything." ”

Where will there be delays?

There are such coincidences somewhere.

The so-called people sent by the Zhang family's aunt and grandmother were just pretended to be sent by Wang Jia.

As for why this arrangement, Lin Yutong smiled and slowly closed his eyes, how can one fishing line be enough?

She wouldn't say this to the little sticky rod, looking at the girl who was only twelve or thirteen years old, and her eyes were very clear. When it comes to loyalty, it is naturally not bad. I couldn't help but think of Hongjing.

At this age, it is the most suitable to be placed by Hongjing's side.

So the girl kept touching the silver in her arms, and said with a smile: "Do you really want to follow me?"

Little Sticky's eyes lit up, "Why don't you want to?" she pouted, then lowered her head again, "I'm afraid it won't work." "The rules are strict.

Lin Yutong smiled, "You follow them first, and in a few days, I promise to bring you to me." ”

When she went back in the evening, she asked Wang Jia about the sticky stick, "How old are you?"

Wang Jia was surprised that his master would fall in love with such a girl, to be honest, this kid is not very qualified except for his good kung fu learning. Therefore, it was twelve years old before I really went out for the first time," ...... It's also an accident to say, this kid is a drifter, and he floated down the river to our ...... of the boundary. ”

This is to say that they train from a secret base.

Zheng Jia led people to train in the river, the wooden basin floated over, put it on, and there was a child in it who was still angry, and he called to save it, so he called Liu'er. I haven't been out of the house, and I grew up watching the people in the door, so I can't help but spoil some ......"

You can see it. Those eyes are not the eyes that have seen too much.

Lin Yutong knew her origin, and he was more at ease, "Carefully protect her, and after returning to Beijing, transfer to me......"

That's good, of course.

When I thought that there was a baby ten grids in front of the queen, my heart was like a mirror. If Liu'er can follow the ten grids to serve, then this is a creation that can't be asked for. It's so much better than this shady errand.

She hurriedly responded, thinking of thanking her and feeling that she had no position, so she only lowered her head and slowly retreated, thinking that she would definitely tell the girl a few words when she found an opportunity, and don't always be stupid.

As soon as Wang Jia went out here, Zheng Jia came over and reported, "Two groups of people from the Mo family have gone out, and instead of going to Xikeju, they went to a brothel in Yingchun Pavilion. ”

If the Xike Residence is regarded as the snow lotus on the high mountain in the Fengyue Place, then the Yingchun Pavilion is the wild chrysanthemum that grows in the corner of the door of the house, and the two are not comparable at all.

Not everyone has a chance to see the snow lotus, but this wild chrysanthemum, as long as you are willing, then everyone can pick it. Even if it is a pawn of a peddler, he can spend dozens of copper plates to find a girl who was willing to spring up for a while.

If it weren't for people staring at the Mo family, who would have thought that Xikeju and Yingchun Pavilion were actually one family.

In fact, it is the most difficult to mark people in the Spring Pavilion. It's just too complicated to get people in and out here.

In the courtyard of the high-rise building in front, there are sheng songs and swallows dancing, and the entertainers are some high-rollers who can bargain for the starting price. The people who entered the side door were all those who occasionally came and were willing to spend three or five taels of silver, and they couldn't afford to call the popular girls, but the girls here were really good, and they were all people who they couldn't think of before. A new generation replaces the old one, but the old man is also the good of the old man, anyway, everyone takes what they need. Again, the first-class ones are either old, or their looks and figures are out of shape, so go to the backyard, the backyard is also big, and the people at the back door are all small people. These people are willing to pay 30 wen to sleep once, but they are reluctant to spend 80 wen for a night. Therefore, there are many people who leave with their pants in their hands. Coming and going, sometimes all night without stopping.

People are in, but it is impossible to say where they can get out.

Zheng Jia said the difficulty, Lin Yutong's expression was ugly, but he still nodded in understanding.

In fact, there is no need to investigate further, as long as you know that there is a connection between the two, it is enough.

In the Yingchun Pavilion, in a remote courtyard blocked by a rockery, sitting in the main hall was a woman with pockmarks on her face, in her forties, holding two letters in her hands, weighing back and forth.

It didn't take much effort, the door rang, and the three long and two short cycles knocked twice, and she knew that the person she was waiting for came.

The woman who came in was slim, dressed in a black dress and wearing a black bib on her head, covering her face tightly.

The pockmarked woman frowned, very unimpressed by the other party's dress. This place is brightly lit, and it is so tightly covered in black, how can it not attract attention? How can you pretend to be ugly?

It's a pity that I've said it many times, but I haven't listened to it once.

The other party took off the scarb, didn't take the other party's dissatisfaction in his eyes at all, and said, "Please ask me to come over at this point, is there something?"

Isn't this nonsense?

The pockmarked woman handed over the things in her hand, "Look, this is the consequence of you arranging people again." ”

The woman in black sneered, "There is a problem with my people, if the person you arrange is useful, I will be willing to give Bai Ju?" You know how much effort I put into that child." ”

"Sanniang!" the pockmarked woman called the other party's name, but her hand pressed down, "There's no point in arguing about these now." Just look at what to do now. ”

This woman in black, who is called Sanniang, is not the indifferent shopkeeper of Xi Keju.

At this time, she lacked the lotus-like indifference, and her eyebrows and eyes were a little more fierce, "Magu ......" she called the pockmarked woman, and then handed back the two pieces of paper in her hand, and then said: "I still believe that there are more white lotuses." ”

Magu frowned and picked up the white lotus note again, "What kind of nobleman? We haven't gotten any news." There was no news of this in the capital. ”

In the capital?

Where is it so easy.

Sanniang hid the disapproval in her eyes, dragged the topic back from the capital again, and said bluntly: "Didn't Bai Ju say it? As she spoke, she sneered, "That's interesting." Bai Ju's news came from Chen Qiuniang, but Chen Qiuniang didn't report it. On the contrary, it was said that the aunt of the Mo family, the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family, sent someone to ask for peace...... Isn't it interesting that you say?" @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

Magu's face was a little unsightly, and she didn't know how to refute it for a while.

If what Bai Ju said was true, then why didn't Chen Qiuniang report such important news when she knew it? In fact, Chen Qiuniang's concealment of such news from Bai Ju is very revealing in itself. It shows that she doesn't want to send the news back at all. Didn't Bai Ju say it? I learned it by chance from Chen Qiuniang.

This is a good occasional use.

But this can't be said to be Bai Ju's fault. Bai Ju said in the past that she was going to cooperate with Chen Qiuniang, but in fact, she was also monitoring the other party. found that the other party had two hearts, stared at her and looked for news from her, what was wrong?

On the contrary, it was Chen Qiuniang, who handed over such news that everyone knew, which was like a fool. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

Magu didn't have such thoughts in her heart, but in the end, this person picked it out by herself, cultivated herself, and bothered to send it out. At this time, she didn't recognize Sanniang like this, so she had to say: "Chen Qiuniang's idea is also good." With the help of Mrs. Mo, sending someone to the Zhang family is also a good move for us. It's Bai Ju, who has this ready-made news in his hand, and he doesn't know how to send it back, but he stares at Qiu Niang......"

Laugh at!

Sanniang made such a sound very ungracefully, what is said to be a shame, is it a shame? What is there to send the news that everyone knows? Besides, if you send someone to the Zhang family by other people's hands, of course this road can be walked. But don't forget, there was already Aunt Yun in charge of it in the capital. What does it mean that you are meddling in a horizontal rod now? Two teams of people in one realm, who listens to whom and who does not listen? Just like Hangzhou now. When I asked her to go to Jinling, Gusu, Yangzhou, and wherever she went, I told her that Hangzhou didn't need her, so she didn't listen. Everywhere wants to meddle!

With you everywhere, you can be the master?

She didn't speak, but this 'snort' was more uncomfortable than a thousand words of ridicule.

Magu's face was not good-looking, so she suppressed her temper and said: "Now is really not the time to argue about this, even if what you say makes sense, we can ignore the news from Qiu Niang's side for the time being." But the ...... sent by Chrysanthemum We can't be careless. Who is this noble man? Do our people have a chance...... These are all things that need to be investigated urgently. And Bai Ju is your person, how much she knows, you have to ask again. ”

If you ask, it's a vain question, if you knew who it was, you would have sent it out a long time ago. What to do is still half-hidden. If that's the case, then ask Bai Ju to deliver the news to herself, why bother to pass through her.

She didn't want to have anything to do with her, so she just said: "You don't care about this matter, I should take it, and I will be responsible for figuring out this matter." ”

Magu's face softened, and a smile appeared on her face, "Then it's hard Sanniang." ”

Sanniang smiled meaninglessly, her voice was soft, but it was inexplicably a little unruly. Magu maintained the expression on her face, watched Sanniang put on her hat and went out again, before she knocked on the table, and then the wall cracked in the middle, and a scribe in his fifties came out of it.

Magu's expression became reserved, "In your opinion...... Is Sanniang okay?"

The scribe stood with his hands behind his back, glanced at Magu, and then chuckled, "She's smarter than you." ”

Clever?

Where is smart?

Just by that outfit, you can't tell that you are a smart person.

The scribe did not speak, but raised his hand to stroke his beard, and Magu looked away from the slightly pale and old hand, which still felt a little strange no matter how he looked at it. If the six fingers are neatly long, it is not too strange to look at. But it's strange that a knot grows outward on the joint of the thumb and grows into a finger.

Knowing that this old gentleman was disgusted by others looking at his hands, she deliberately turned her eyes away from looking, and only said: "I will ask someone to serve you to rest, and I will tell you as soon as there is news." ”

The old gentleman smiled, looked down and glanced at his own hand, which had been an eyesore all his life, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, and he said as he walked towards the bedroom: "Mo Wenlong's qualifications are okay to be an official, but it seems that he is still lacking in life." ”

Magu should be. The old gentleman has the talent of the champion, but it is a pity that he has a disability and has no career in office. Now commenting on court officials to these women and children is one of his favorite things to do. Whoever has the patience to listen to it will be close to him. She saw that the old gentleman was on the rise, so she said, "I treat my wife affectionately, but I am actually very indifferent......" She said on her lips, but said in her heart: It seems that you don't want to go to bed early tonight, and maybe the old gentleman will talk about when he will go. I just don't know that Sanniang, who was commented by the old gentleman as smart, is this going to be worrying? That thing is not so easy to do.

Sanniang helped a man in a gray robe to walk out from the side door of Yingchun Pavilion, very generous.

Then he got into the carriage, entered an inn, and opened a room in the inn.

About an hour or so, the girl dressed in black went out of the inn again, found a sedan chair and stopped not far from the Yingchun Pavilion, it was late, and she had an extra gray cloak on her body, and entered through the side door.

Zheng Jia relayed the news he received to Lin Yutong, "...... Pretty good at tricks...... This is one of the few suspicious characters tonight...... And a few more ......"

Lin Yutong put down the book in his hand and smiled, "Needless to say, this is the one." It's a pity that you lost it, and it's not interesting to follow again, so let's withdraw. ”

Zheng Jia looked up suspiciously, "Master, are you sure?"

"Sure!" Lin Yutong glanced at Zheng Jia, "This woman in black is much smarter than the woman hidden in the Spring Pavilion. It seems to be public, but the person she wants to guard against has let down her guard. In fact, behind that publicity, it is more carefully arranged than anyone else. I'm afraid that after leaving the Yingchun Pavilion, the woman in black who entered the inn and the woman in black who left the inn and returned to the Yingchun Pavilion are two people, and if someone is really following, they will think that this is Li Dai's peach stiff golden cicada shelling...... But I guess that this is not the original one, whether it is in or out. People say that the three holes of the cunning rabbit, as soon as she came out of the Spring Pavilion, this woman had disappeared. ”

"It's all fake?" Zheng Jia frowned, "This is really unexpected...... and the result was lost.

Lin Yutong waved his hand, "Go and rest." It's not early. ”

Anyway, I have already guessed who that person is, no matter how cunning the monk is, the temple can't run.

As soon as he thought about it, Lin Yutong suddenly changed color, and stopped Zheng Jia, who was about to retreat to the door, "Arrange manpower to keep an eye on Xi Keju, but if there is a little trouble, immediately call someone back." ”

Zheng Jia didn't know what the master thought, so he didn't dare to be careless, so he went out immediately.

And Lin Yutong stood up, pressed his left hand on the thumb of his right hand and rotated, he hadn't encountered such a tricky character for a long time......
