Chapter 174: A Strange Marriage

Zhang Qi was not surprised when he heard this, he smiled and said: "Brother Gong is thoughtful, we also found out that the Lu family is missing a young lady, and we think that it was sold by these people, so we went to the surrounding traffickers and brothels to look for it, but we didn't find anything."

Mr. Kong glanced at Gong Wu and asked, "Could it be that the people on the rivers and lakes who have enemies with us did it?" ”

Zhang Qi looked at Mr. Ye and said: "If it was done by someone with a heart, the things in the account book would have been found by them a long time ago, but now the rivers and lakes are still very calm." ”

Mr. Kong asked again: "Didn't you inquire about the whereabouts of that Miss Lu around, maybe she didn't die and was rescued?" ”

"Back to Mr. Kong, our people have also inquired, but they still haven't found Miss Lu's whereabouts."

"Does the government know about this?" Gong Wu suddenly asked at this time.

"I don't know yet, we are afraid that it will be troublesome for people from the government to intervene and come in."

Gong Wu nodded and said, "This is also reasonable, are any of us familiar with the people in the government?" ”

Zhang Qi asked puzzledly, "What did Brother Gong think of?" ”

Gong Wu replied: "I think you should have checked everything here, but I wonder if this missing Miss Lu was rescued by a passing merchant ship, and this Miss Lu is a woman's family, and she can't tell what happened for a while, so she was taken to the field by the people on the merchant ship in a daze." ”

Zhang Qiyi patted his head and said: "Brother Gong is still thoughtful, we haven't thought about this, but what does this have to do with the people in the government?" ”

Gong Wu said with a smile: "The merchant ships that come and go must be taxed in the records of the state capitals, we will know who passed by here by checking the records of the official government in the days when the Lu family was killed, if it is a friend on the road passing by, I think Brother Zhang can also find out, right?" ”

Zhang Qi hurriedly replied: "Of course, Brother Gong is really talented, he can think of this, it would be good if Brother Kong arrived here earlier, so as to save us the trouble of looking for clues here." ”

Mr. Kong looked at Gong Wu again and said, "In this case, you should first go and open up the joints of the government and find out the information of the merchant ships and cargo ships that passed by here in the past few days, and Gong Wu and I will go around first." ”

Zhang Qi took the order and left, and Mr. Kong took Gong Wu to the riverside to play. After leaving for a short time, Mr. Kong turned around and asked, "Do you know anything about this Huangzhou?" ”

Gong Wu said with a smile: "This place is famous all over the world because of the scholar of Su University. ”

"How did you become famous?"

"Of course, it's the third line of the book in the world written by Dongpo monks, "Huangzhou Cold Food Stickers"!"

Mr. Kong looked at Gong Wu in surprise and said, "You also know "Huangzhou Cold Food Sticker"? ”

"Since I came to Huangzhou, I have passed three cold foods, and I want to cherish spring every year, and I can't regret spring when I go. This year, it rained bitterly, and the autumn was bleak in February. ......" Gong Wu simply memorized the content, which surprised Mr. Kong.

After Gong Wu's back was completely pasted, Mr. Kong asked, "What school of calligraphy do you learn?" ”

Gong Wu said helplessly at this time: "I didn't learn any calligraphy, but I just knew this post at the beginning, and I just liked the poems of Dongpo monks so I wrote it down." ”

Mr. Kong nodded and said, "Let's go to the town to have a look, if there is a good sketchbook "Huangzhou Cold Food Sticker", I will also buy a copy, and then we will find a place to study calligraphy." ”

Seeing that Mr. Kong's interest was so high, Gong Wu really regretted that he was playing in front of him, now he put himself in, what kind of calligraphy do he know, he will reveal the stuffing when he opens his mouth, but now he has to send it when he is ready to fly, he has to grit his teeth and squeeze out a word from his throat, "......"

After a few days of teaching, Gong Wu finally understood calligraphy, and also knew that calligraphy is not shallow, but the most uncomfortable thing is that Mr. Kong also asked him to pick up the pen and paste, which really wanted his old life, a word, no, a day to write is not like the original post, he simply wanted to tear up the calligraphy in front of him, fortunately at this time his savior came.

A few days later, Zhang Qi finally appeared in front of the embarrassed Gong Wu, and he found Mr. Kong and said with excitement: "Brother Gong is right, that Miss Lu was really rescued. ”

Mr. Kong didn't expect to find the clue so quickly, "What's going on?" ”

"I went to the government to find someone to check the merchant ships that passed here half a year ago according to Brother Gong's wishes, and we found something wrong, that is, someone had a happy event on the river, so I followed this clue to check, it turned out that a businessman named Zhou Yuan rescued a woman from the river, and then somehow became a relationship with this woman that day, and then went to Hanyang."

Mr. Kong smiled, "Gong Wu is really a talent, you leave a few people here to continue to investigate, and we will go to Hanyang together." ”

Zhang Qi received the order and followed Gong Wu and Mr. Kong to Hanyang by boat.

After arriving in Hanyang, they quickly inquired about Zhou Yuan, who turned out to be a wealthy man in the local area, and it was not difficult to find him.

Zhang Qi made a little money and inquired about Zhou Yuan's situation, and then came back and told Mr. Kong and the two that the Zhou family had no bride, at this time Mr. Kong was also stunned, he looked at Gong Wu and asked, "Are we looking for the wrong one?" ”

Gong Wu shook his head and said: "I think this Zhou Yuan must have hidden the little wife somewhere from the eldest lady, and we will find out when we arrest him." ”

It was not difficult to catch Zhou Yuan at all, when Zhou Yuan was pocketed in front of Mr. Kong, he was so frightened that he peed his pants, and Mr. Kong, who looked at him, also felt funny, "Your name is Zhou Yuan, right?" ”

Zhou Yuan kowtowed like a chicken pecking rice, "It's Zhou Yuan below, I don't know what the hero commands?" ”

"Where is the little lady you newly married in Huangzhou half a year ago?" Gong Wu couldn't help but open his mouth to ask at this time.

"What little lady?" Zhou Yuan's face was confused.

"You married a teenage lady, did you forget it so quickly?" Gong Wucai won't give him a chance to make up stories.

"I really don't know what a little lady is!" After all, Zhou Yuan is an old fritter who is used to walking the rivers and lakes, and he still has some bottom in his heart to deal with this kind of environment.

Gong Wu looked at the old fritter and said, "It seems that we have arrested the wrong person, but this matter is confidential and cannot be revealed, we can only kill him and then find that little girl!" ”

Zhang Qi nodded, "That's exactly the reason, since we caught the wrong one, we had to kill by mistake rather than let it go." With that, he pulled out his saber from his waist.

This is terrible, Zhou Yuan howled with snot and tears, saying that he had an old mother and children, and if he died, he would kill his family.

Gong Wu smiled: "It's useless for you to cry, now you know what we're looking for, if you leak the news, the matter may be exposed, so you are dead." ”

Zhou Yuan passed out at that time, but this was not for him, Mr. Kong pressed him a few times and he woke up again, he saw that Mr. Kong was going to be kinder, so he hugged Mr. Kong's thigh, Mr. Kong said coldly at this time: "You don't have to be close to me here, if you are not honest, I can't protect you." ”

At this time, Zhou Yuan had nothing to do, "I did marry a bride." ”

"Where is she?" Mr. Kong asked eagerly.

"I was sold by my eldest lady."

The three of them didn't expect such a result, everyone was stunned, Gong Wu's eyes rolled at this time, "What does your newly married wife look like?" ”

Zhou Yuan heard a glimmer of hope from Gong Wu's words at this time, and he hurriedly described her new wife. Why did Zhou Yuan have hope at this time, he knew that if he wanted to live, he would have to be different from the people these people were looking for, so he deliberately talked nonsense about the appearance of the newly married, and this is exactly what Gong Wu wanted, that is, he would be relieved to tell the truth inadvertently.

"How did you get this new wife?" Seeing that Zhou Yuan had relaxed his guard, Gong Wu wanted to draw out his truth from other aspects.

"I bought it in a brothel."

As soon as Zhou Yuan's words fell, Zhang Qi pulled out his knife, "It seems that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, we found here after inquiring clearly, and you are still here talking nonsense with your eyes open." ”

Looking at the bright knife in Zhang Qi's hand, Zhou Yuan was also scared, so he had to tell him how he married the bride. This Zhou Yuanxin's wife was really rescued by him from the water, and he was also lustful for a while to deceive this new wife, and when he asked for his name, he also accidentally said his real name "Lu Xiumei"
