Night.

Hongru Inn.

Tianzi No. 1 room.

Shanbao, a white-faced scholar.

"This, could it be a bloody throat tea?" The white-faced scholar smiled and picked up the tea cup that Shanbao pushed to him, and took a sip.

"This is a tea for the new magistrate to thank him for saving his life." Shanbao met his surprised gaze.

The white-faced scholar was slightly stunned, then laughed in a low voice, and asked in a low voice: "How did you guess my identity?" ”

Shanbao looked at him: "I'll pinch my fingers." ”

It's just a joke, in fact, she is half guessing and half cheating, recalling the conversation between the white-faced scholar and the old harrier, he has a little more prestige as an official and less as a businessman, especially when he mentioned the new magistrate several times, Shanbao feels that he knows the whereabouts of the new magistrate in such detail, I am afraid that he is talking about himself.

The white-faced scholar smiled deeply, pressed his hands on the table, his body was straight, and his official authority appeared, and said: "Then please pinch your fingers and calculate again, will the old harrier come at noon tomorrow?" ”

Shanbao pinched his fingers indiscriminately, and then said, "Yes." ”

The white-faced scholar looked at her and smiled heartily: "I believe you." ”

Shanbao shook his head: "Do you believe in yourself, Lord Zhixian, dare to ask your name?" ”

The white-faced scholar said: "The official's surname is Qiu, and the word is Yu." I thought it was because I was afraid that Shanbao didn't know what his name was, after all, there were many homophones, so he added: "The sun is like day, and the moon is like night." ”

"Qiu Yu ......," Shanbao muttered to himself, "My lord feels that he is like the sun and the moon as an official." Does it shine on the people? ”

This white-faced scholar, the new magistrate, Qiu Yu shook his head: "Born famous." The one who takes the will is the father of the family, and as for the official side, he should bless the people, otherwise he will lose the emperor's grace. ”

Shanbao said: "So you pretended to be a merchant to capture the old harrier?" ”

Qiu Yu nodded: "I didn't come to Lei Gong Town for three days, and I haven't handed over to the previous magistrate Kong, because I accidentally heard that someone was secretly buying and selling Soul Snatcher Grass." This is a forbidden thing in the imperial court, so I went to the teahouse where fish and dragons are mixed to look for clues, and I just happened to meet the old harrier and the two to catch you. I asked the tea guest, and said that the two of them were full of evil in Lei Gong Town, one was called the old harrier, and the other was called the old mouse. So trailing up. You know what happened next, so there is no need to repeat it. ”

Shanbao didn't know what was going on, and asked, "Why are you blocking us after the adult?" I mean, how do you know which way the two harriers are going? ”

Qiu Yu is full of confidence: "These scoundrels robbed the people in order to sell them into a brothel, and with the girl's appearance, they must be sold to the largest local Mantangchun, and the road to Mantangchun is the closest." ”

Shanbao was surprised: "Your Excellency has not been in Lei Gong Town for three days, so familiar with the path of this place?" ”

Qiu Yu waved his hand: "It's not the understanding that I did after coming here." But before coming to Lei Gong Town, I already knew everything about this place in detail. I looked at the topographic map again. ”

For such a serious official, Shanbao admired it very much, and said: "Then the adult saved me and took the sheep by hand?" ”

Qiu Yu: "Huh? ”

Shanbao knew that the wording was inappropriate: "No, it's ......"

Qiu Yu said: "I went to chase the old harrier specifically to save you, and buying the Soul Snatcher Grass is the best way to lead the sheep, you see, I am a thief." ”

Shanbao smiled, and Qiu Yu also smiled.

After eating a pot of tea, after talking for a long time, Bang knocked on a watch, and the inn, which was already sporadic due to the New Year, was extremely quiet.

Shanbao said: "It's dark, I should leave." ”

Qiu Yu retained: "The old harrier and the old mouse are not idle people, otherwise they can't be in trouble for so long, if the girl leaves now, once they are secretly watching, they will be suspicious of me, and it will be difficult to get the stolen goods tomorrow, so please ask the girl to help the official perform a play, and tomorrow the two will be arrested, and then send someone to send the girl back to the house." Afraid that he would not be able to convince Shanbao, he replied: "The Soul Snatcher Grass is not shallow, and the leader of Lei Gongzhen's trading of this thing is the old harrier, please ask the girl to understand the righteousness and the overall situation." ”

Shanbao hesitated: "It's not that I don't want to help you, my maid was kicked by the old harrier, it seems that her head is bleeding, I don't worry, and the fat one is my cousin, she must be worried about me, and my father and mother, and ......" After a pause, he replied: "And the ancestral family, I am actually ...... Grandma of the ancestral family. ”

Showing his identity is to show his identity, he knows very little about Qiu Yu, and he wants to use the grandmother of the ancestral family to protect himself under the unclear real situation, after all, the ancestral family in Lei Gong Town is famous.

The candle flame flickered, projected on Qiu Yu's face, seeing his brows jumping suddenly, as if something ominous had happened, the righteousness of the body and the majesty of the face of the pride of the candle wick were as short as an inch, his eyes were a little distracted, and he looked at Shanbao for a long time, and said: "I see." ”

The voice was low, as if it was going to be low into the dirt, so that it was hoarse, as if the title of the ancestral grandmother was something he didn't want to hear, and suddenly said: "Then Zu Gongluo, you often see it." ”

Shanbao: "Hmm. ”

Qiu Yu slowly stood up, paced back and forth, and asked, "What kind of person is he?" ”

Shanbao: "This ......"

Thinking about how to describe Zu Gongluo, saying that he is good-looking, this is suspected of being lustful. said that he was strong in kung fu, which is suspected of admiration. In another way, for example, he has an innate dignity in his bones, not the superiority of the other sons of the ancestral family, but dignity, no matter his gaze, his usual expression, the tone of his speech, the way he walks, etc., even if he is alone, his demeanor is like being held by the stars.

After listening to her narration, Qiu Yu nodded frequently: "It is really rare for Lei Gongzhen to have such a character. ”

Shanbao felt that the conversation between them had seriously gone off topic, so he said, "I don't go home at night, and my family will worry about it." ”

Qiu Yu still retained: "The official thinks that you can go back and ask them to rest assured." ”

Seeing that Shanbao still had no intention of staying, he said: "The girl knows such a story, back then, the royal driver personally conquered the border pass, the enemy and us fought for a hundred days, and saw that our dynasty was about to win, but because the soldiers mistakenly took the Soul Snatcher Grass and delayed the fighter, in the end, it was defeated. ”

Shanbao looked frightened and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

Qiu Yu said again: "The Soul Snatcher Grass is very harmful, and those who take it will lose their minds and do inappropriate things. ”

Shanbao suddenly remembered that he had eaten a pot of nourishing soup that day, according to Jin Se later, when her grandfather omitted to Baoxia, she was suddenly shocked, and she didn't know her state at that time.

Qiu Yu continued: "If you take this thing for a long time, a woman will lose her ability to give birth. ”

Shanbao heard Ah Ke say that Aunt Qiao eats the nourishing soup all year round, can't she have something to do with it?

Qiu Yu said again: "So, I implore the girl to stay and help me arrest the leader of the business here, the old harrier." ”

Shanbao, how can there be the power to refuse. (To be continued.) )
