Qin Xiaowan didn't expect Gu Baiyi to come back at this time, he didn't expect it, and Qiu Niang didn't expect it either.

The two of them turned their heads to look at Gu Baiyi, and they were a little stunned for a while.

There is a pastry gift box on the table, Qiu Niang is holding Bazhen cake in her hand, the door is closed, and it is opened at this time.

"Brother Gu, are you back?" Qin Xiao immediately got up, and in addition to being surprised, he was really a little embarrassed.

Qiu Niang is Gu Baiyi's sister, and when she saw her sister talking and laughing with a man behind closed doors, she didn't know what Baiyi would think in her heart.

"I'm back." Gu Baiyi walked in directly, glanced at the gift box, and was not polite, reached out and took a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, and feasted on it.

"Actually..... Actually, Sister Qiu Niang and I didn't say anything. Qin Xiao couldn't help but say.

"I know." Gu Baiyi nodded.

He said that, but the ghosts could tell he didn't think so.

Qiu Niang was also a little anxious, and explained: "Actually, I asked him what he used to do, and he said that he was a jailer, and I didn't believe it, so I .....!" ”

"I understand!" Gu Baiyi ate quickly, a piece of pastry went down, reached out and took another piece, and persuaded: "Eat together, it tastes good." ”

Seeing this, Qiu Niang couldn't help but glare at Qin Xiao, feeling that if Qin Xiao wasn't here, she wouldn't let her younger brother misunderstand, so she simply said, "Baiyi, you won't ..... You won't feel like me and ..... I did something with him that shouldn't have been done, right? ”

"Sister, you're too worried." Gu Baiyi said: "Brother Qin is a righteous gentleman, even if you don't care, he won't mess around." ”

Qiu Niang's willow eyebrows raised and said angrily: "What did you say? What I don't care? Are you still not my brother? ”

"All my life." Gu Baiyi smiled, took Qiu Niang's chopsticks, took a piece of pig's head meat and put it in his mouth, sighed: "It's a pity that there is no wine, otherwise the pig's head meat will be as happy as a fairy." ”

Qin Xiaozheng was a little embarrassed, and when he heard Gu Baiyi say this, he immediately took out the two bottles of wine from the gift box, put one bottle directly in front of Gu Baiyi, and said, "Although it's not much, it's good wine, if it's not enough, let's go and drink again." ”

Gu Baiyi picked up the wine bottle and sighed: "Don't say that the wine inside, it's just that this wine bottle can't be bought without three or five taels of silver." ”

"Really?" Qiu Niang was stunned, obviously she didn't expect that a small wine bottle could be worth half a year's salary for supporting the boat, and hurriedly said: "After you two finish drinking, don't throw the wine bottle around." Then he was surprised: "Baiyi, shouldn't you be bad today?" Why did you run back at this time? ”

"Yesterday, everyone in Kyoto Prefecture was doing their job, and they couldn't go home if they stayed in their place." Gu Baiyi opened the cork of the wine bottle, and the aroma of the wine in it immediately diffused, as soon as Qin Xiao smelled the aroma of the wine, he knew that it was indeed a high-grade wine, only to see Gu Baiyi look at himself, and explained with a smile: "The Criminal Department took Fan Butang away from the Ministry of War yesterday, and Lord Yin was worried that there would be something to order from the Ministry of Justice, so none of the eight hundred Yacha in Kyoto Prefecture dared to leave his post without permission, and those of us who were in charge of the documents and cases were also honest and could not leave the Yamen." Last night, we didn't close our eyes until it was almost noon, and Lord Yin ordered some to be on duty first, and I just came back early, but I had to replace the others in the evening. ”

Qin Xiao opened the cork and said, "Brother Gu, if it weren't for you this time, Han Duwei would definitely be unable to escape, and junior brother will give you a drink." ”

"Don't be so polite." Gu Baiyi said with a smile: "Drink and drink, what is respectful or disrespectful, your own people, don't see outside." ”

Qiu Niang couldn't help but glance at Bai Yi, thinking that this kid really regards himself as his own person, and you also regard him as your own person now,

In the future, this family will not go in and out with him?

Gu Baiyi took a sip of wine, closed his eyes and tasted it, and soon exclaimed: "I have never drunk such a fine wine since I was a child, Brother Qin, this time I am blessed by you." ”

"Brother Gu is also polite." Qin Xiao said with a smile: "The person who sent the wine said that this is called Heavenly Man Brewing, but this name is arrogant. ”

"Not arrogant." Gu Baiyi said: "This name really insults such a good wine." However, I was really surprised that the Taiping Society was able to come up with such good wine. ”

"Brother Gu knows that it was sent by the Taiping Society?"

"As soon as I entered the alley, someone told me that several people came to my house with gift boxes, and as soon as I told them how they were dressed, I guessed that it was the Taiping Society." Gu Baiyi directly pulled Qiu Niang's stool over and sat down, "The good thing about this alley is that no matter what happens, soon the whole alley will know." ”

Qin Xiao thought to himself, it seems that I stayed with Qiu Niang's lonely man and widow last night, and I was also found out by the neighbors.

"Come here and sit on the second brother Wu Tianbao." Qin Xiao said: "He said that the eldest brother of the Taiping Society and I are old acquaintances, but this is the first time I have entered Beijing, how can I recognize their eldest brother?" Brother Gu, do you know who the big brother of the Taiping Society is? ”

Gu Baiyi shook his head and said, "I don't know." People in Kyoto only know Wu Tianbao, the second brother of the Taiping Society, the so-called sitting hall, is the leader of the gang, when it comes to the Taiping Society, everyone only knows Wu Tianbao, and the eldest brother behind Zhiruo is really rarely known. Then he smiled and said: "But the backer behind the Taiping Society is extraordinary, and the identity of that eldest brother is naturally not ordinary." I sandwiched another piece of pig's head meat, thought of something, and said to Qiu Niang: "Sister, you went to buy a jar of wine earlier, I didn't sleep well last night, I want to drink to refresh myself." ”

Before Qiu Niang could speak, Qin Xiao had already neatly taken out a piece of broken silver and handed it over.

"I didn't drink alcohol for a few months, and I didn't listen to you say refreshment." Qiu Niang said angrily: "You have been drinking every day for the past two days, and when he leaves later, see who you ask for wine, I can't afford to pay for your wine." Having said this, he took the money, and put the silk into his room, and then went out.

Gu Baiyi sighed: "Although my sister is thrifty, she has a good heart, sometimes she says the wrong thing, don't blame her." ”

"Brother Gu's words are wrong, in fact, Sister Qiu Niang is smart and dexterous, diligent and thrifty, if anyone marries her, it is really a virtue." Qin Xiao Zhengsedao,

Gu Baiyi smiled bitterly: "Actually, it's all my fault, I should have let her marry a long time ago, but it's just ......!" I stopped talking, looked a little guilty, and said: "Sometimes I also wonder, if one day she gets married, will I be able to live alone?" I have no other strengths than reading and writing, I can't even cook, and without her, I would really starve to death. ”

Qin Xiao also knew that if there was no Qiu Niang, Gu Baiyi's life would indeed be even more depressed.

"Don't talk about that." Gu Baiyi frowned and said, "Why did you leave the Criminal Department?" The case has just begun, why didn't the Criminal Department settle you? ”

Qin Xiao immediately gave a rough overview of what happened after he rode a horse-drawn carriage to the Criminal Department, that is, he was assassinated last night, and he also said about the situation when he came here, but he broke through to the Zhongtian Realm, so he naturally did not tell him.

Gu Baiyi's expression was solemn, and he said: "Lu Junzhong is really insidious and ruthless, he is going to borrow a knife to kill people." ”

"Borrowing a knife to kill someone?"

"Why do you think Lu Junzhong asked you to leave the Criminal Department?" Gu Baiyi said solemnly: "He has expected that as long as you walk out of the Criminal Department, someone will inevitably assassinate you, whether it is Tsing Yi Tang or the forces behind Fan Wenzheng, they will not let you go, and they want to kill you." ”

Qin Xiao really didn't think of this before, Gu Baiyi mentioned it like this, and his heart sank, and then he understood that Lu Junzhong let himself leave the criminal department so quickly, but

I already have murderous intentions towards myself.

"Why did he kill me?"

"His purpose is not to kill you." Gu Baiyi said calmly: "He wants to make this case bigger and involve more people." You narrowly escaped death last night, it was an eyesore, and if you were dead on the streets, the result would be different. ”

Qin Xiao had fully understood at this time.

"I went to the Criminal Department to file a complaint, which led to Fan Wenzheng's detention by the Criminal Department, and many people already know about it." Qin Xiao sneered: "So in everyone's eyes, Fan Wenzheng's henchmen will definitely be regarded as a thorn in the flesh, if I am dead on the street, the first murderer that everyone thinks of is Fan Wenzheng's henchmen." ”

"Not bad." Gu Baiyi bowed his head and said: "At that time, Lu Junzhong will announce your identity to the public, you are a black feather night crow, you entered Beijing to report the military situation, but you were killed in Kyoto, this matter spreads, the first of the Fertile Border Army will not give up, and Lu Junzhong will also take the opportunity to expand the case." The Criminal Department has not made any major moves in the past few years, and Lu Junzhong can't hold back, so he finally waits for this case, so he naturally doesn't want to end it simply, at least he wants to take this opportunity to involve some officials who don't like it. ”

"So I became a tool for him?" Qin Xiao sneered: "Sure enough, it is an old treacherous and cunning who is insidious and ruthless. ”

Gu Baiyi frowned and said: "But you were assassinated last night, and you killed an assassin, it stands to reason that Kyoto Prefecture should be able to get a report for such a thing, but when I came back, Kyoto Prefecture did not have such news." He took a sip of the wine bottle before saying, "I understand, after the assassination last night, when you leave, the group of assassins should have cleaned up the scene, and the bodies of the killed assassins have been properly disposed of, so that after dawn, no one will know that there has been a murder in the alley, and Kyoto Prefecture will not get any news." ”

"Those assassins must have been worried about the aftermath, so they dealt with the scene quickly." Qin Xiao said: "Brother Gu, do you guess that last night's assassin was Fan Wenzheng's person?" ”

"It's possible, but it's not certain." Gu Baiyi smiled faintly: "Lu Junzhong thinks he is very smart, but in fact, he is too confident, he only thinks that after you are killed, someone will report the murder." In fact, if they succeeded in assassinating you last night, your body would also be cleaned up without leaving a trace, so that no one would know that you were killed, but only a messenger from Xiling had lost his trace. Of course, the assassination may have been planned by Fan Wenzheng's henchmen, but Tsing Yi Tang is also suspicious, and both groups want to kill you. Looking at Qin Xiao and said: "I told you that night, if you want to rescue Han Duwei, it is a dangerous move to go to the Criminal Department, because you can rescue Han Duwei, and you will also form a mortal enmity with Fan Wenzheng's forces, and if you stay in Kyoto, your situation can only be more dangerous." ”

Qin Xiao said: "Captain Han also asked me to leave Kyoto as soon as possible, but how could I leave him alone?" Although he left the tiger's den, he entered the wolf's den, and now in the hands of the Criminal Department, Lu Junzhong is insidious and vicious, and I am really worried about the safety of Han Duwei. ”

"Don't worry, the Criminal Department will never dare to touch Captain Han." Gu Baiyi was very sure: "Even on the bright side, the Criminal Department does not dare to provoke you." ”
