Chapter 8: The Great Secret
Liansheng followed the officials who carried the corpses back to the county office.
Now that she has been appointed by the county magistrate, she can openly participate in the investigation of this case.
Because the Dashun Dynasty was established by the peasant rebel army, there were many female soldiers and female generals in the original rebel army, such as Empress Wuwei of the founding ancestor Li Zicheng, and the red lady who was later named the king of England, so the status of women in this dynasty has improved, and women will not be looked down upon when they come out to do things. Lian Sheng visited the neighbors near the courtyard of his house, and indeed someone saw Zhu Da appear at noon. At this time, many poor families still have two meals a day, and there are many people who do not eat at noon, the weather is relatively hot, and at noon there are few people on the street, and a person with wet hair and messy clothes walking on the street is very conspicuous.
Liansheng ran for an afternoon, returned to the county government before the sunset, Liu Zhutou had already returned with someone, and saw Liansheng quietly pulling her over and saying: "Zhu Da took a bath in Qingyang Inn yesterday, and the guy in the store said that this Zhu Da is still doing brokerage work on weekdays, and specially brings merchants to Qingyang Inn in exchange for a few commissions." Yesterday, he took two silk merchants from the south of the Yangtze River, had a few glasses of wine with the boss, and took a bath in the big bathhouse of the inn before leaving. ”
"Liu Tou, look at this." Liansheng took out the pendant he had picked up. Liu Zhutou took it, looked at it and said: "This is like a gadget for a child's birthday, when my second child was full moon, his grandmother's family sent a set of such gadgets, don't look at indecent things and don't listen to them." ”
Yu Shizhao paced, walked over with his hands behind his back, and snatched the pendant: "What a broken thing, I don't know how long it has been there, and now I take it out and offer treasures." ”
He played with it in his hand, looked at the soft light of the setting sun, and suddenly exclaimed, "Huh." It's kind of interesting, you see, what is this? ”
Liansheng and Liu Zhutou hurriedly came over to take a look, and under Yu Shizhao's guidance, sure enough, above the back of the little monkey, the part where the rope was tied gradually fell off, revealing a very small and very small rice character!
Rice! Is it the one who opened the rice shop or the family with the surname Mi?
Liansheng muttered to himself.
"The shopkeeper of the Qingyang Inn is surnamed Mi! Mi Dalang! "
"Mi Dalang!" Liansheng walked out of the door in a hurry, and Yu Shizhao shouted, "Stand, why are you going?" ”
"Go and meet that Mi Dalang!"
"Just you?" Yu Shizhao's eyes were burning, looking up and down. Liansheng was stunned by his gaze, and straightened his chest and asked, "What are you looking at?" "
Yu Shizhao saw her raise her chest and raise her head, and the corners of her mouth hooked, Liansheng realized that she had overreacted, and hurriedly bent down slightly, and said a little annoyedly: "What's wrong." ”
"If there is really a problem with this Mi Da, you little girl go and ask him, aren't you afraid that he will jump off the wall in a hurry and it will be bad for you?"
Liansheng was stunned for a while, and this Qingyuan County has always been relatively stable, and there are few lawsuits, so Liansheng is really negligent in taking precautions.
"I'll go with you." Liu Zhutou volunteered.
"Lord Ben is hungry, but I'm too lazy to go with you to find any rice." Yu Shizhao suddenly stretched his waist.
Liansheng's eyes squinted, and he said in his heart, who said that you should go with you.
"Naturally, I don't dare to work adults." Liu Zhutou said Liansheng's heart.
"Haha, haha!" Yu Shizhao sneered a few times: "My lord, I still want to find someone to eat with for dinner, just you, Gu Liansheng." ”
"Adults, small ones still have to go ......"
"Long-winded, just call that Mi Dalang for questioning."
Yu Shizhao shouted: "Qianer! ”
Suddenly, a person dressed as a brocade guard seemed to be born from the ground, and he arrived in a flash. "Go and bring Mi Dalang, the shopkeeper of Qingyang Inn, for questioning."
"Yes."
Na Qianer took the order and left.
Yu Shizhao raised his eyebrows: "Isn't this over." Gu Liansheng, what is delicious and fun in your Qingyuan County, come, I will introduce you to adults. ”
Liansheng looked at Liu Zhutou in embarrassment, and the latter looked at his nose and nose and pretended to be calm and couldn't see anything.
Liansheng was helpless, so he had to step forward: "My lord, the more famous restaurant in this county is Qingyuan Pavilion. ”
"Okay, then you can take me to see it."
Liansheng looked unwilling, Yu Shizhao whispered: "Case, case!" ”
Thinking that Fang Sheng's case was still in the hands of others, Lian Sheng had no choice but to clean up his mood of roaring, and his face was depressed: "My lord, please." ”
Sitting all the way to the elegant seat of the Qingyuan Pavilion, Liansheng still looked preoccupied.
Yu Shizhao sighed: "Miss Gu, I don't owe you money." ”
"My lord is joking."
Liansheng adjusted his facial expression and tried to soften his face as much as possible: "My lord, what do you want to eat?" ”
"Look at it, my lord, I even eat human flesh."
Looking at his white dangling teeth, Liansheng chuckled in his heart.
She had to seriously order a few special dishes and asked for a pot of local famous osmanthus wine, Xiao Er saw Lord Jinyiwei for the first time, he was so frightened that he trembled, wrote down the request, and left backwards.
The meal was served quickly, and Yu Shizhao looked at it and was very satisfied. Liansheng resigned himself to pouring osmanthus wine for him, and Yu Shizhao took a deep breath: "Not bad, this wine is clear in color and has a strong aroma of osmanthus flowers." He took a sip from his glass, "a sweet aroma, a fine wine." As he spoke, he held the pot with his own hand and poured another cup for Liansheng, "Miss Gu, you can taste it too." ”
"Villains don't drink."
Lian Sheng still drank alcohol in his previous life, and he could drink a bottle of beer at a class reunion. In this life, the Yang family has a very strict family education, Yang Quan rarely drinks alcohol, not to mention Liansheng, she doesn't know whether the degree of this osmanthus wine is high or not, and she is worried that it will be difficult to drink too much and make trouble in front of people, so she resigned again and again.
"My lord, I poured it for you, you don't drink it, but ......" Yu Shizhao smiled slightly: "Still holding grudges about yesterday's court?" ”
"The villain didn't dare, yesterday it was the villain himself who was not cautious enough."
"You really don't want to drink?"
"I really don't know how to drink."
Yu Shizhao suddenly probed over: "If you drink it, I will tell you a secret." The secret of your brother's case! ”
Liansheng's eyes lit up when he heard this: "What the adults said is true? ”
"It really can't be true, it's more real than pearls!"
Lian Sheng glanced at the osmanthus wine in the cup, took a deep breath, picked up the cup and drank it in one gulp.
"Good! Good! It has the tragic strength of the wind and the cold water. Yu Shizhao slapped his face and laughed, and Lian Sheng looked at him with big black and white wet eyes: "My lord, you can tell the secret." ”
"Haha, you're so easy to deceive!"
When Liansheng heard this, his heart froze: Nima's deception.
saw Yu Shizhao then lowered his voice and said: "This secret can be told to you alone, you must not tell others." You swear! ”
Seeing his mysterious appearance, Lian Sheng nodded: "Yes, I swear, I will never tell anyone else, please speak." ”
"Do you know why your younger brother Gu Fangsheng appeared at the scene of Hu's murder?"
"Why?"
"Speaking of which, my lord, I came to Qingyuan County from the capital this time, do you know?"
"Investigate Gu Shangshu?"
"Smart and smart!" Yu Shizhao's eyes flashed with a smile: "I happened to arrive in Qingyuan County after yesterday afternoon, during which I received some information about your brother and sister, until I came to your residence and found a murder case!" ”
Before the words fell, Lian Sheng jumped up: "Could it be that your lord, you witnessed the murder?" ”
"No, no, no, I smelled a familiar smell when I came to Yang's house." Yu Shizhao half-squinted his eyes and looked like enjoyment: "That is a smell of blood that is vague, it is the smell of the dead!" ”
Looking at his smug and intoxicated face, Liansheng said in his heart, what a big perversion. Suddenly, she was stunned, her eyes stared straight at Yu Shizhao, and she asked word by word: "Then, then, Lord Yu, what did you do!" ”
Yu Shizhao exclaimed: "Clever, smart, you really guessed it, didn't you?" As you can imagine, just do that! ”
"Our sister and brother and adult, you have no grievances, why is this!" Liansheng's face flushed, and he couldn't help but slap the table in a fit of anger, and the glass of wine that Yu Shizhao had just poured was shaken and spilled, and Yu Shizhao sighed: "It's a pity, it's a pity that such a beautiful wine is spilled." ”
"You were the one who charmed Fang Sheng with the drug and carried him to the Hu family's room."
"Oh, where is this little thing, I will personally do it."
"Why! Why? ”
"It's fun, I want to see if Gu Shangshu's children are really as steady and cautious as the secret report suggests, and of course smart."
"Playing us like monkeys, and watching others be wronged and beaten in the game you set up, so happy?"
"Of course, my lord, it's really refreshing to see people on the board. Gu Liansheng, don't expect anyone to cherish you, some people are born with a cheap life, that is, the mud on the soles of their shoes, they are trampled hard, and they can't turn over for the rest of their lives, and some people are unwilling to be stepped on, waiting for one day when a strong wind will blow, fascinate people's eyes, and blow into their mouths! Let those who step on themselves have their mouths full of mud! And I, now is the gale you have been waiting for. Yu Shizhao put on a heartfelt posture: "I involved Brother Ling in the case, this is an exam, Gu Liansheng, I am very satisfied with your cousin, and I have the surprise of Lianzhong Sanyuan." How about it, cooperate with me, as long as you trip Gu Shangshu, it's easy to discuss. ”
"You despicable ......" Lian trembled angrily, pointing at Yu Shizhao and blurting out that she was about to scold, but in the end she swallowed it, he was the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and he couldn't afford to mess with him!
"Despicable, shameless, and indecent? Hahaha! Yu Shizhao's tears of laughter came out: "Can you change some fresh words, your father Gu Shangshu and a bunch of so-called Qingliu waste materials are scolding me every day, all of them are like this, and my ears are going to grow calluses." ”
At this moment, I heard someone outside the door say, "My lord, Mi Dalang brought it." ”
"Bring it in." Yu Shizhao smiled and said to Liansheng: "Calm down, Miss Gu, this is another big fish, be careful and decouple, your brother will really not be able to clear his grievances." ”
"It's your ......"
"Shh......h You swear you won't tell anyone, and if you say it, someone will believe you. ”
"You!"
Liansheng stared at him viciously, his gaze as if he wanted to burrow a hole in his face.
The door opened, and Jinyi Wei Qianji brought Mi Dalang in, then took a step back and stood at the door waiting for orders.
Nami Dalang was tall and powerful, his face was dark, but his chin was clean and there was no beard, and when he entered the door, he saw Yu Shizhao hurriedly paying a visit.
"You're Mi Dalang? Opened an inn. ”
"The little one is exact, I don't know why the big man summoned the little one to come."
Yu Shizhao picked up the chopsticks and picked up the vegetables, and said casually: "Miss Gu, you come and ask, and let the adults and I take a look at your skills again." ”
Don't get angry! Don't be angry! Take a deep breath and inhale! Exhale! Lian Sheng comforted himself countless times in his heart, slowly suppressed his anger, and asked calmly: "Mi Dalang, do you recognize Zhu Da." ”
