Chapter XVII: Foreknowledge

Zhong Qingchi is not only good to the shopkeeper, but also has the grace of saving his life to the shopkeeper before. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The shopkeeper's surname is Fang, who turned out to be the original owner of this tavern, but because he has no power and no power, although the business is booming, it is inevitable that his peers with a tough background will be squeezed, and in the end, he was repeatedly troubled, and after being framed into the Jingzhao Mansion twice, he finally couldn't hold on.

The shopkeeper said: "If it wasn't for the owner's rescue at that time, Xiaomin would have died unjustly in the prison of the government office, and the wife and children of the family and the old mother now have to live on the streets, helpless!" ”

People are always not bad for no reason, and there is no good for no reason.

Zhong Qingchi's good treatment of the people below has also created the fierce loyalty of these people to him after he was assassinated today.

You must know that the person who can assassinate Zhong Qingchi is by no means an idle person, it is Yu Shi, an adult of a thousand households, and he also has some scruples when he investigates it, although Luo Gong has given her an order to find out the truth, but it is not to let her be unscrupulous, everything still has to be measured.

Shopkeeper Fang could risk being killed, and told her truthfully, Yu Shidun felt that Zhong Qingchi had done a very successful job at the level of being the master.

As for being the princess's horse, it can be regarded as a failure.

What Shopkeeper Fang said next was almost the same as what Zhong Xiaoli said.

Princess Haoying Zhu Rong and Zhong Qingchi, the attached horse, are not as affectionate, Qin Se and Ming as rumored in the outside world, Zhu Rong is quite disgusted with Zhong Qingchi's temperament of only loving money and not dealing with powerful royal families.

But even so, Zhu Rong took all the profits from Zhong Qingchi's private business into her hands.

Yu Shi asked: "Does Master Attached Ma listen to Her Royal Highness the princess like this?" ”

Shopkeeper Fang is an upright and loyal person, and he is a smart person, otherwise Zhong Qingchi would not have handed over his only private business that successfully concealed Zhu Rong's private business to him, and the meaning of Yu Shi's words was meaningful, and he heard it:

"My lord, if Xiaomin said that the owner really listened to Her Royal Highness the princess, the adult must not believe it, otherwise there would be no existence of this tavern and Xiaomin, but my lord, Xiaomin will say that every word is true, every sentence is true, and the owner has objections to all the profits in the hands of Her Royal Highness the Princess, but Her Royal Highness the Princess is the princess of a country, what can the owner do?"

This is also true, Zhong Qingchi is also the second son of the second son of the second product of the household department, no matter how valuable the identity is, it is not as valuable as the identity of the princess of a country, even if the household department Shangshu Zhong Yan knows about it, there is probably no way.

Yu Shi asked: "Did the attached master ever say that where did Her Royal Highness the princess use all the silver collected from the attached horse?" ”

The shopkeeper Fang thought for a while and said: "The proprietor seems to have said that when the proprietor came to the tavern quietly in the middle of the night, his face was very wrong when he came, and the little people didn't dare to ask more, but then the proprietor got drunk, so he muttered drunken words, which probably meant that Her Royal Highness the princess used the silver taels obtained from the hard work of Ma Ye to deal with the relationship." ”

Dotted relationship?

The princesses and attached horses of Chu are not allowed to participate in court politics, what relationship can Zhu Rong have?

Yu Shi asked Shopkeeper Fang again, but Shopkeeper Fang shook his head, saying that Zhong Qingchi only said a word or two vaguely, and then fell asleep completely, and did not say anything else.

After sobering up, Zhong Qingchi didn't say anything more, and asked the shopkeeper if he said anything when he was drunk?

Shopkeeper Fang has always been very loyal to Zhong Qingchi, and he said it truthfully.

Zhong Qingchi was startled at first, and then asked that there was only one shopkeeper next to him when he was drunk, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then told the shopkeeper Fang that he was drunk and said that he was not allowed to reveal half a word when he was drunk.

Although Shopkeeper Fang didn't quite understand the things between those big families and the royal nobles, he also understood that some words could not be said nonsense, and some words could only be heard in the ears, but they could never be said from their mouths.

If Zhong Qingchi hadn't died overnight, Shopkeeper Fang wouldn't have said this thing that he had promised Zhong Qingchi never to spread to the outside world.

After hearing this, Yu Shi only felt that it was really rare for the shopkeeper to be such a loyal helper, and he was willing to take the risk of telling her for the sake of the dead owner, so that the life and death were put out of the way, so that the eyes of the shopkeeper Fang became much gentler and closer.

Yu Shi took a sip of the dragon well, put down the teacup and asked:

"Have you ever thought that what you said to me today, as long as I go out of this tavern and secretly pay attention to the assassination of Master Ma, it is very likely that the person who will come to kill you?"

Shopkeeper Fang was obviously as Yu Shi thought before, he really put life and death aside, and he just smiled when he heard this:

"If the adults can find out the murderer for Xiaomin's owner and bring the murderer to justice, Xiaomin will die at this moment, and there will be no regrets!"

Listening to the fearless words of the shopkeeper Fang, his eyes were full of firmness, and Yu Shi asked again:

"Then why did Shopkeeper Fang choose to tell me what you know? Didn't the shopkeeper Fang think of going over to find Yang Shangshu of the household department? ”

Shopkeeper Fang shook his head, his expression was slightly gloomy, and he said with disappointment:

"When the owner was alive, he once told Xiaomin that Yang Shangshu didn't know about this tavern, and Yang Shangshu naturally didn't know about Xiaomin's existence, but the owner once mentioned to Yang Shangshu what Her Royal Highness the princess did, but unexpectedly Yang Shangshu not only did not hold grievances for the owner, but angrily reprimanded the owner, saying, 'The man is outside, and the woman is inside, it should be'!"

Yang Yan's words are nothing more than completely agreeing with Zhu Rong's control of all the silver taels that Zhong Qingchi earned in his private business abroad.

In this way, Zhong Qingchi really has nothing to say, even in this tavern, Zhong Qingchi has no idea of wanting to talk to his father Zhong Yan, so Zhong Qingchi not only concealed Zhu Rong, but also Zhong Yan.

Shopkeeper Fang continued: "As for why Xiaomin chose to tell the truth to the adults, it was because as early as a month ago, the owner quietly came to the tavern late at night, and the owner looked in a hurry, as if something terrible had happened......

But Zhong Qingchi did not say it to the shopkeeper Fang, but only solemnly explained to the shopkeeper Fang, as long as he died suddenly one day, no matter what the reason was to the outside world, he must have been murdered and died, so that the shopkeeper Fang would tell the truth to the Jinyi guard who came to investigate the case of his sudden death.

Yu Shi was shocked when he heard the shopkeeper Fang say this, it seems that Zhong Qingchi not only knew that he might be murdered, but also expected that after he was murdered, Emperor Zhu Yuan would definitely hand over the case of his murder to the Jinyi Wei Yamen for thorough investigation!

Yu Shi said: "Attached to the horse, there is nothing else except to explain these to you?" ”

Shopkeeper Fang thought about it and shook his head: "No! ”

Yu Shi reminded again: "For example, what did Master Attached Ma give you?" It doesn't have to be given to you recently, maybe it was handed over to you for safekeeping earlier, is there such a thing? ”
