Chapter 301: Finding Evidence
Liu Shi smiled lightly, then nodded at Su Cimo and said, "Well, yes!" After listening to Gu An's words, my mother suddenly figured it out again! It was my mother who was too harsh on you before, and my mother was not. ”
As soon as Su Cimo heard this, a mist appeared in her eyes unconsciously, and then she happily hugged Liu Shi in her arms.
"Mother, to hear you say this, Cimo is so happy in his heart. For so many years, I've been walking outside, and although it's a daughter's house, I don't think there's anything bad, but mother, your attitude today is really scared of Cimo, but seeing that you can think about it now, Cimo has no regrets in his heart. Su Cimo said with a look of tears.
Liu smiled very happily, and wanted to comfort his daughter Don't say that anymore, after all, this is how the world is, who can't say that they don't worry about their daughter at all!?
"That's right! Mother, didn't you think about it at first!? Why do you suddenly feel understandable again!? "Su Cimo is really strange, how can this Liu family say that it has changed.
"Oh, it's thanks to that Gu An brother! I knew that he knew that you were a woman, so I told him about you, and I originally wanted him to help me persuade me, but who knew that Brother Gu An said that I didn't understand you enough, and he also said that you are very hard to work hard for your own ideas, and also said that the relationship between you and the emperor will not deteriorate to the point where I am worried. Cimo, now our family depends on you. As a mother, I also put all my thoughts on you. Liu Shi said slowly, and the feeling of being moved and touched in his heart was very real.
Su Cimo finally burst into tears and laughed when she learned about this, and then she took her mother's hand and stood quietly on the side and said, "Mother, Cimo is very happy." Don't worry, I won't reveal my gender, please help me keep it a secret, even if it's the servants in the house, you must remember not to mention half a word. Also, you just have to remember that I am your son, remember! It's your son. Su Cimo's face was a little nervous, his eyes widened, and he pulled Liu Shi and said.
Liu Shi was ordered by her words, and immediately nodded in a panic.
Su Cimo suddenly remembered that he still had something to find out, and then said that he still had to go out to investigate Su's father's previous case, and then left the Liu family to go out alone.
Su Cimo then went to visit several teahouses in Beijing that sold gossip, including the teahouse in charge of Tuoba Heng, Su Cimo didn't even let go to inquire, but Su Cimo didn't get any useful information here, but someone in Tuoba Heng received that Su Cimo went to the teahouse to inquire about the news.
After Tuoba Heng learned about this, he also realized that Su Cimo must be in a hurry this time, so he instructed Chen Feng to guide Su Cimo by giving them a few pieces of evidence that they had prepared in advance and had already held in hand.
Chen Feng received the order and immediately retreated.
Here, Su Cimo just walked into this teahouse that is rumored to be the most well-informed in Beijing, and then found a secluded place to sit down, just when she came in, she had already taken a certain amount of silver to the little er, and asked him to bring the most well-informed person in the building to meet her, but the little two walked for a long time, and still didn't come back.
Su Cimo drank three cups of tea, but he still didn't see any trace of Xiao Er, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart.
Su Cimo said in his heart that it was not good, should this little second look at her thinness, and really think that she is easy to bully!? No matter how you say it, Su Cimo is also wearing men's clothes, and he acts like a man.
Thinking like this, Su Cimo couldn't help but start to wonder if she didn't dress up well, but made the little second feel that she was a bully!?
But Su Cimo thought about it carefully, and felt that when he just spoke, he deliberately paid attention to what he said to Xiao Er, and he was already very anxious in the past two days, so he was very rude in her speech and actions, how could that Xiao Er think that she was a bully?
The more Su Cimo thought about it, the more angry he became, and he suddenly felt that he couldn't wait any longer, even if he wanted to get up and go outside to see if Xiao Er took her words as a joke seriously and didn't come to find someone for himself.
Who knew that as soon as Su Cimo stood up, he walked out of the café by the window a few steps, and Chen Feng walked quickly in the direction of the café.
Su Cimo saw Chen Feng head-on, and immediately glanced at him with a puzzled look on his face, and then asked, "Chen Feng!" What are you doing here!? ”
Su Cimo's face was full of doubts, she hadn't come here to tell Tuoba Heng and Chen Feng who knew that he had already found herself here.
Chen Feng thought for a moment, and then said to Su Cimo: "Oh, it was the master's guard who saw you coming here, and the master remembered and asked me to accompany you to protect you." ”
Su Cimo's face was ruddy, and he smiled a little embarrassedly, then immediately opened his arms and made a gesture of please at Chen Feng, and then said, "Brother Chen Feng, please sit down, wait here first!" ”
Chen Feng glanced at Su Cimo with a stunned expression, and snickered in his heart that Su Cimo didn't know that the name of this restaurant was the boundary of the common merchants, in fact, this place had already been acquired by Tuoba Heng, and this was also Tuoba Heng's intelligence agency set up in the city.
There are many people who drink tea here, in essence, they are people who come here to trade with intelligence, of course, Tuoba Heng has already had a lot of information when Su Qingfeng was killed, and the reason why Tuoba Heng didn't directly take it out to Su Cimo was just afraid that she would be hit if she knew the truth behind this matter and Tuoba Heng had a certain relationship with Tuoba Heng.
After Chen Feng saw that Su Cimo was also sitting down opposite him safely, he immediately got up, and then said to Su Cimo to go out for a while.
Then he came out and instructed the little two to hand over the useful thing in his hand to a shopkeeper in the shop, and instructed him to ask Su Cimo for a while, and let him take out the envelope with information written on it and hand it to Su Cimo's hand.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he understood what Young Master Chen Feng was doing this time.
So he immediately agreed, and then carefully hid the envelope in his sleeve.
Sure enough, Su Cimo didn't wait for the little second to come back, he was anxious, and got up and went out to check where the little second person had been, only to see a man in a green shirt come in front of him, and the man looked like a person who could talk a little bit in this restaurant.
Su Cimo immediately said to the man: "Excuse me, you are the noble person in charge of the line newspaper in this restaurant, right!?" ”
When the shopkeeper heard Su Cimo say this, he glanced at Chen Feng who was sitting next to him, and then immediately nodded and said, "Yes, it's down!" ”
"I want to know the inside story of Lord Su Qingfeng's corruption of ink, I will ask for as much news as there is!" Su Cimo said with a slightly ugly face.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately smiled, nodded, and then said: "The matter of Su Yushi is known to everyone in Beijing, so as soon as you come in today, I can see that you are Su Yushi, of course, I have also prepared something for you to see!" ”
After saying that, the shopkeeper stepped forward and took out a letter in his sleeve, and then handed it to Su Cimo.
Su Cimo took the letter, and then looked at the skin carefully, but he didn't write anything, but he didn't expect that they were doing things secretly in Xinghualou.
So Su Cimo immediately smiled, then took the letter and said, "Then Su Mou thanked the shopkeeper!" It's just that, I don't know how much silver taels this news is worth!? ”
Su Cimo glanced at the envelope in his hand with some scrubbing, and then glanced at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper seemed to see Su Cimo's very wary look, so he smiled and said to Su Cimo: "This Lord Su, don't worry!" We know in our hearts what we should give you and what we should not give. ”
Su Cimo was a little speechless for a moment, and then the shopkeeper looked at Su Cimo with a frowning look, so he continued: "It's better to take the things this time, then you take them first, and you don't need to give us silver taels." If our news is true and useful, then the next time Master Su comes to visit again, it will not be too late to charge for it. ”
Su Cimo couldn't help but nod after hearing this, and then said: "That's okay, I am indeed a little worried about whether the news you gave in this envelope is worth it, this is the first time to be a trial, and I will give you more as a thank you in the future." ”
The shopkeeper smiled and nodded at Su Cimo, and Su Cimo got up and left the restaurant with Chen Feng.
Because the letter from the shopkeeper to Su Cimo was secret, and then she was afraid that there would be chaos in a hurry, so she didn't dare to open the envelope in the restaurant and check it carefully.
After returning to Su Mansion, Su Cimo opened the letter and read it carefully, and after she read it, her face gradually leaked a little joy.
Because Su Cimo finally saw all the news she wanted to know, she didn't expect her to get useful news so quickly, which was something she felt surprised.
Because it was written in this letter that on September 17, the day of the incident, Lord Wang Xiao, the minister of the Ministry of War, transferred 2,000 troops from the garrison of the imperial city without authorization, and there was no record of where those soldiers went and what they did.
The next day, the palace received news that there had been a bandit at the location of Shilipo and that tens of thousands of taels of disaster relief silver had been robbed.
Then the officials sent by the palace to investigate the matter found that the remaining disaster relief silver was still being transported to the southwest hinterland of the disaster, and did not stop to reorganize the convoy because of the loss of the silver taels, and then counted where the disaster relief money went, or how much was lost. At that time, it was said that disaster relief was more important, so the vehicles were not immediately stopped escorting Yinliang.
