Chapter 9 The East and West Cities

Even the light breaks, the bright red sun gradually rises from the east, the bustling street has lost the silence of the evening, everywhere is filled with the shouting of hawkers, and the aroma of food floats in the air.

Yizhou Mansion Dungeon.

"It's dawn!"

Mu Shi withdrew his gaze from the skylight and looked at Cheng Shaoqing expressionlessly.

Cheng Shaoqing sighed, got up from the Taishi chair, and walked out while stretching his waist.

"Cheng Shaoqing, where are you going?" Mu Shi rushed over to stop him, his eyes bloodshot after a sleepless night.

Childe is alone outside, and there is a female thief with bad intentions by his side, and he really can't sleep.

Cheng Shaoqing grinned and patted him on the shoulder: "I said Mu Shi, you son is such a big person, what else can happen?" You live here in peace, I still have something to do. ”

"Nope." Mu Shi snorted coldly, and grabbed Cheng Shaoqing's collar, "I'll tell you, if something happens to the son, I ......"

Cheng Shaoqing interrupted him impatiently and plucked out his ears: "Okay, okay, I know, aren't I going to find your son-in-law?" ”

"Really?"

"It couldn't be more true."

"But ......"

"No, don't worry, I won't let your son-in-law lose a single hair. You can rest assured. Cheng Shaoqing broke his hand, "Okay, I'm leaving." ”

Cheng Shaoqing left the cell, and Jiang Zhutou in the yamen stumbled over: "My lord, you can figure it out, out, something is wrong." ”

Cheng Shaoqing smiled and straightened his clothes: "What's the big deal?" ”

"Lord Jiang is here, saying that he wants to interrogate the prisoner in person, and that the corpse, Lord Jiang plans to take it back for burial."

What did Cheng Shaoqing do last night, the arresters in the yamen all know, and now that the suspect has run away by him, what will they give to Lord Jiang?

Cheng Shaoqing shook his spirit and pressed the golden knife on his waist: "What are you afraid of, when the sky falls, I will hold on to your family, go, go and meet this Lord Jiang for a while." ”

Jiang Zhutou touched the tip of his nose and followed, for some reason, he always felt that the newly appointed Master Cheng was a little unreliable.

City.

After eating the morning food, Meng Heyu followed Pei Ling to drive to Xishi first.

Located on the west side of Yikang Fang, the West Market is a long street, which is different from the prosperity and extravagance of Chang'an Road, which is full of three religions and nine streams, and everything can be done.

Those who sold horses, silk, and tea in the Western Regions, as well as the more popular Western Regions slaves and human teeth.

In the West Market, only you can't think of it, and you can't buy it without you.

The West Market is divided into East and West City and West West City.

The East and West markets mainly sell all kinds of goods and goods, and the West West City is mostly a slave market. Both the eastern and western cities have their own jurisdictions, and they do not interact with each other on weekdays, and business is relatively clearly divided.

Both the eastern and western cities have foot power, and there are many long-term and short-term workers listed in them, as well as masons and the like.

Cheng Shaoqing's information mentioned that Jiangfu has recently been building construction and repairing the attic of the Splendid Pavilion. Last night, Pei Ling first vaguely saw the attic, a three-story building, covering a small area, it is the kind of boudoir of the rich family, which is not very big, but the building is extremely exquisite.

Today is the day of the opening of the market, and the crowds in the east and west markets are surging, and the carriage has simply entered. Pei Ling parked the carriage on the side of the road first, and took Meng Heyu into the East and West City from Hengmen.

Meng Heyu didn't sleep well last night, and there were two rounds of dark circles on her fair face, and now everything she looks at is ghosting.

"What are we doing in West Market? Shouldn't you go to the suspicious Mrs. Wang? She dragged her steps and followed behind Pei Ling, and asked weakly.

There are many people in the east and west cities, and there are all kinds of smells in the air, sometimes it is the aroma of food, sometimes it is the smell of aroma, sometimes it is the smell of freshly baked horse manure, and these strange smells are fused together to become the unique fireworks of the east and west markets.

"Meet the masons. They are the outsiders who have been in and out of Jiangfu most often in the past half month. Pei Ling first folded her hands and shuttled through the crowd, not at all like handling cases, but like shopping.

"Do you suspect that an outsider killed someone?"

"It's not clear."

Meng Heyu "and" said: "There is also a boss Jin, don't you want to see it?" ”

"No hurry!"

Meng Heyu Yile: "Hey, are you sure you can catch the murderer!" ”

Pei Ling turned her head to look at her first: "Let me ask you a question." ”

A wheelbarrow suddenly came from the alley next to her, and when she was about to hit her, Pei Ling hurriedly lifted her collar and dragged her to the side of the road.

Meng Heyu's face was hot, and she couldn't help but pout: "You ask."

"How did you know last night that the maid had a bloody coat in her arms?" Pei Ling asked slowly first, and Meng Heyu smiled proudly, "The smell of blood!" ”

"Can you smell it?" Pei Ling was a little surprised.

"What's that? Haven't you Dasheng people heard of it? The Watts drink blood! Dealing with blood every day, the nose is naturally sensitive! She stared at her eyes and talked nonsense, in fact, because her five senses are naturally sensitive, not only can imitate human voices, but also smell and hear are different from ordinary people.

Pei Lingxian, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, and Meng Heyu was unstable and hit his head on his broad back.

"Here we are."

"Where?" She rubbed her nose and raised her head, only to see that there was a half-new sign hanging above her head, with three big words written on it.

The door of the foot is open, and from the outside of the door, you can see the long and short workers gathered in groups inside, and the strong smell of sweat can be smelled from a distance of eight feet.

Meng Heyu frowned, and just wanted Pei Ling to go in by herself, but her eyes inadvertently fell on the white of the moon in the crowd, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly hid behind Pei Ling.

Why is that guy here too?

Pei Ling was slightly stunned: "Wolf guard? He asked, lowering his voice.

Meng Heyu hurriedly shook his head and nodded again, anyway, he couldn't let him see him.

She covered her face with a handkerchief and dragged him to her feet.

Pei Ling first followed her line of sight just now, and a young man in a moon-white beard in the crowd was extremely eye-catching.

The man in the beard seemed to sense that someone was looking at him, and subconsciously looked over this way, only to see a handsome man in a servant uniform walking towards him while walking towards him.

He was slightly stunned, and subconsciously raised his eyebrows, with a hint of imperceptible coldness in his eyes.

The two only glanced at each other briefly and staggered, and Pei Ling was first dragged into his feet by Meng Heyu, who was hiding his head and brain.

"Master, what are you looking at?" Seeing him stop, Ah Tongbu asked suspiciously.

Kule shook his head: "It's just a passerby." ”

The little girl frowned: "Master, you said, is the princess really in Yizhou?" ”

Kule's eyes narrowed slightly, looked at the crowd and said thoughtfully: "Yizhou is the only way for Watt to come to Dasheng, and she will definitely pass through here when she comes to Dasheng." ”

"However, what if she didn't come to Dasheng at all, but went to Dongyue Kingdom?"

"No, it won't." Kule said firmly, "Her mother, the county lord of Yunxia, is a native of Dasheng, and since she has left Watt, she will definitely return to Dasheng, not Dongyue, who is not familiar with life." ”

A Tongbu tilted his head and thought: "It seems to be such a reason, but Yizhou is so big, how can we find it?" And Hu Chan's people seem to have been eyeing her since she came out of Watt, at this time, will she ......?"

Kule's face sank: "No." ”

What else did Hitomi Bu want to say, but Kule had already been pushed forward by the crowd.
