Chapter Ninety-Four: Discerning Authenticity
Several guys in the tavern were completely stunned, they didn't dare to stop them, they looked at each other, and some were muttering about whose girl this was, and a crowd gathered at the door of the tavern in an instant. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Zhutou didn't catch up with Narcissus, and completely lost his direction, so he had to ask Ping'er to help find it.
The two of them were looking for each other separately, and Ping'er suddenly saw the crowd, and subconsciously glanced inside and walked over, but heard someone say, "Who the hell is this girl, it's too unreasonable to ride on a man and fight." ”
Hearing this, she suddenly wanted to go in and have a look, glanced at her back and widened her eyes, "Gong ......" shouted and quickly covered her mouth, looked left and right to make sure that there was no acquaintance, rushed in and grabbed Narcissus's arm.
Narcissus was just about to shake off her hand when he saw her face, and was squeezing his eyes at him, he subconsciously looked down, and was also startled, shaking his head and quickly standing up.
"I didn't have any money with me, so I paid for the drink. Narcissus walked out directly, and Ping'er sighed and followed him all the way, nagging all the way, but she didn't dare to step forward. Observing left and right along the way, I was afraid of meeting acquaintances.
Afraid of something, Ping'er suddenly hid by the side of the stall and squinted ahead.
Yiyun walked directly in front of Narcissus, Narcissus naturally lowered his head, and the two passed by, but Yiyun suddenly stopped, turned around and looked, tilting his head and baring his teeth.
Ping'er saw that the narcissus had gone away, patted her chest, and turned her head to look at Yiyun, not knowing if he just stopped and thought that the narcissus in women's clothes was like the narcissus in men's clothes now, or like the fairy when he was a child.
Narcissus walked all the way out of the city and saw a teahouse sitting down. Appleball glanced around and followed.
"There's a ruined temple a mile away, I'll wait for you there, go get my clothes, I'll go back to Narcissus. Ping'er was about to turn around, "Wait, pay for the tea first." ”
The area of the broken temple is not large, and I don't know which Bodhisattva is enshrined, like the body has faded, and one by one it seems to have spots.
After Ping'er brought her clothes, Narcissus glanced at her surroundings and hid behind the statue of the Bodhisattva.
Suddenly a cry was heard, and the sound was getting closer and closer. Narcissus frowned, sounding what seemed to be a man's cry, and he quickened to change his clothes.
"Well, don't be overly sad, you should have known that there would be such an accident when you signed the deed of sale.
Think of my flowers, if they're alive, they'll be eighteen years old this year......"
A chubby middle-aged man was patting a thin young man, "I also wanted my daughter to enjoy happiness, and we can also borrow a light, who knew that the soldier looked good and raised such a son."
Your sister-in-law and I went when the flowers were buried, and even if we put on new clothes, we could see that our wrists and faces were full of scars......," he said, whimpering.
"Brother, don't you want revenge?"
"Cough, people said that Hua'er disobeyed the young master and wanted to teach a lesson before she was killed by mistake, this is her life. ”
Narcissus and Ping'er listened and looked at each other for a while, isn't the son of the soldier who killed the maid, Li Ming, I didn't expect that he still had a life on his hands, and it was really less than the 10,000 taels he asked for at the beginning.
"I don't care, my moon can't just die in vain. The thin man cried, "When I signed the contract, I said that I would follow my wife to serve tea and pour water, and why did I run to the young master's courtyard."
What kind of hide-and-seek are twenty-year-olds, but poor my moon is only ten years old, and no one will save me if I fall into the pool......"
As he spoke, he walked outside the temple, and the eldest brother dragged him, "One thing is one thing, and you can't rob other people's children to take revenge." ”
"It's not someone else's, it's his sister's, and it's half of the Jin family's species. ”
The two of them pushed and dragged them out of the temple, and Ping'er asked in a low voice, "What should I do?"
The two of them quietly followed, and after the two of them walked away, they couldn't hear what they said, and Narcissus looked at the fat man with his arms around his brother's shoulder, walking in the opposite direction of the capital, and seemed to have been persuaded.
Narcissus breathed a sigh of relief and called out to Apple's way back. The two of them returned to the Narcissus Residence together, and the housekeeper immediately greeted them, "Childe, you are finally back, it will be ten days for you to leave suddenly, and we really miss you a little." ”
Narcissus smiled, "I miss you too, you've worked hard these days." ”
The housekeeper shook his head, and suddenly remembered that Mr. Wei was catching his head, and said to him, and when he turned his head, he found that Yun Zheng was looking at him and smiling.
As soon as she took two steps, Ping'er suddenly opened her mouth and remembered something, "Childe, you must be very tired when you just come back, let's go back to the room and rest first." ”
As he spoke, he squeezed his eyes at the butler and asked him to accompany the wine, but the butler immediately lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
Ping'er followed Narcissus, who looked back at her, glanced at the clothes she was carrying, and gave her a look.
Although Ping'er understood what she meant, she was worried that Yiyun would ask about Zhao Gongzi and the third aunt, and she wanted to leave but didn't dare to leave, so she hesitated and shook her body.
"Don't worry, Miss Ping'er, I won't let your son-in-law drink. Yiyun said and asked the guy to serve a pot of tea. Narcissus glared at Apple's again, and she had to leave first.
After Narcissus sat down, he unconsciously picked up the wine jug, but was held down by Yiyun and sniffed at him, "The smell of wine in your body, you just drank it, don't drink it today." ”
Narcissus swallowed his saliva and let go of his hand, thinking that he had been suspended, and he seemed to care a lot about coming over to drink at this time.
deliberately asked: "Brother Wei will come over at this time, and today is a rotational holiday?"
Yiyun let out a sigh, "This is a long story, in the ten days that you have been away, too many things have happened in the city, and the result is that I have been suspended." ”
Narcissus leaned forward with a curious look on her face, asking him to tell him what had happened.
After listening to it, I was a little puzzled, since the Criminal Department didn't catch Guanyin in the end, how could I give up so easily.
Yiyun felt that the Criminal Department didn't care much about whether Guanyin could be caught at all, maybe he wanted to catch him at first, but the emperor said that he couldn't catch him after half a year, and it was Lord Shui who was tortured instead of Guanyin, and they were naturally willing to let Guanyin go, and it was a matter of the way if they could catch him.
But I still tossed for so long, in addition to making a show for the emperor, the main thing is to get some benefits in the process.
Narcissus snickered in his heart, Yiyun really saw through this, there were more than seventy suspects in the prison, one person fifty taels, nearly four thousand taels.
Searching from house to house, searching for Guanyin is secondary, and searching for valuable things for ordinary people is the real purpose.
A few years ago, the people in the north of the city got the Li family's silver, and they would not spend all their savings because of the New Year, and it seemed that they had already gone to the account of the Criminal Department.
"What does Brother Wei think of Guanyin?"
Narcissus suddenly asked this, Yiyun didn't react and looked at him blankly, "Let's not mention the right and wrong things he did, he is a chivalrous man in the hearts of the people, but the Criminal Department used the people to lead him to appear, but he didn't show up in the end in order to protect himself, what do you think?"
Yiyun leaned back in the chair, his eyes empty, "I think he doesn't seem to be injured lightly, he should be hiding where to recuperate, he doesn't know about it at all, otherwise he won't sit idly by." ”
The corners of Narcissus's mouth rose slightly, and she controlled it again. deliberately laughed twice, "You are the chief catcher of Jingzhao Mansion, and you actually said something biased towards Guanyin, it seems that the head catcher will turn a blind eye." ”
Yiyun didn't refute, staring blankly ahead. He suddenly leaned forward and whispered, "Miss Ping'er is still not at ease with you, she has been standing at the counter, her eyes staring at this side from time to time." ”
Narcissus glanced back and smiled embarrassedly.
Ping'er suddenly changed her face and walked towards the door, "Yo, Miss Ping'er." Zhao Gongzi and Sun Gongzi had already walked in, Ping'er glanced at Yiyun and immediately went to stop, "The private room on the second floor is full, you can come back tomorrow." ”
"No kidding, it's impossible to fill up this time. Zhao Gongzi said and walked inside.
Yiyun suddenly stood up and walked to the door, Narcissus subconsciously turned around, and saw that Ping'er was blocking Zhao Sun Gongzi, feeling inexplicable, she also walked over, and asked what was wrong, Ping'er shook her head and stopped talking.
Yiyun saluted and said: "Zhao Gongzi, I haven't made it clear last time, if you don't mind, can you let me meet your third aunt, it just so happens that Brother Narcissus is also back, and Miss Ping'er is also there, and it won't be embarrassing to have a girl's family here." ”
Zhao Gongzi glanced at Ping'er, cleared his throat and lowered his head, not daring to speak. Narcissus was confused and asked, "Third aunt?"
Ping'er immediately tugged Narcissus, "It's none of our business with the two of us, you can go back and rest." ”
Zhao Gongzi turned around and ran away, Sun Gongzi looked back and forth, and followed out with a blank face.
Yiyun let out a "hh", turned his head to look at Narcissus, ran forward and took out the other half of the jade pendant with the word "cloud", and asked him to help see the authenticity of the jade pendant.
"There's no time", Ping'er shouted and dragged Narcissus inside, Narcissus saw Jade Pei at a glance, and instantly felt that Ping'er had something to hide from herself, so she pulled her hand away and let Yiyun come to the private room.
Ping'er also followed up in the private room, and Yiyun handed the narcissus jade pendant, saying that Xian'er was married to Zhao Gongzi, not that she couldn't accept the reality, after all, she asked him to help find it, so she still wanted to talk to him.
As soon as Narcissus took the jade pendant, he felt that it was fake, the weight and material style were exactly the same, but there was no trace of breaking on the edge, but the feeling of making it.
Although he didn't rub it as often as Yiyun did, some parts of the fracture became smooth, and some parts were still angular, which was by no means consistent from beginning to end.
Looking at Ping'er's state just now, she already understood that this was the ghost she and Zhao Gongzi did, and suddenly looked at her.
Ping'er coughed and dragged Narcissus away in the middle, "Master Wei, my son-in-law hasn't seen the person you are looking for, what's the use of telling him." ”
Yiyun took down his half of the jade pendant, "These two jade pendants can't be completely combined, so I want to ask Brother Narcissus to analyze and analyze, he has more experience." As he spoke, he deliberately bypassed Apple's and handed it to Narcissus.
