This old bustard's speech became more and more strange, and even Chu Nanxin frowned when he said this, and said: "Since this mother has come to confess, let's go back quickly, after all, this is the official mansion, don't stay longer." ”

The old bustard wanted to say something, but saw that although Chu Nanxin looked sick, she was dressed extraordinarily, especially the bracelet on her wrist, which was enough to redeem the ten girls in her building, so she hurriedly shut up, but she still had a thief's heart and said to Donglin Shuo: "The official will come when he is free, and he should take care of the business of our little people." ”

Dongling Shuo coughed lightly, secretly glanced at Chu Nanyue's face, and found that the other party looked as usual, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "No need, this official doesn't like to go to that kind of place." ”

After the farce passed, Chu Nanxin frowned, and suddenly said, "This person, I am a little familiar. ”

Chu Nanyue immediately looked at her, but saw Chu Nanxin's brows furrowed, and said: "This person should be the owner of a rouge shop, I used to like to buy rouge on West Street, so I should have seen her, but the rouge in her shop is average, so I only went once and then never went again, think about it, it was also a year ago." ”

Tanglin Shuo's eyes lit up, and he immediately called the official next to him: "Go check all the rouge shops in Beijing." ”

The official immediately took the order to investigate, Dongling Shuo glanced at Chu Nanxin, and was a little glad that Chu Nanxin came: "This time, I still want to thank the princess." ”

Chu Nanxin smiled and said, "It's just a gesture, and if you can catch that thief, it can be regarded as a good thing for the women in the capital." ”

Tanglin Shuo nodded, and then another official came to report: "My lord, when we were searching the vicinity of Baixiang Pavilion, we saw a woman, disheveled and delirious, and when the subordinates saw her, she kept shouting not to come. ”

It seemed that there were eyewitnesses, and as soon as Donglin Shuo wanted to raise his feet to go over, Chu Nanxin immediately stopped him: "The prince must not go!" ”

Donglin Shuo was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Why can't this king go?" ”

Chu Nanxin saluted Donglin Shuo and said: "This kind of thing, it happens to any woman, there is no way to accept it, the prince is a man, he doesn't understand a woman's mind, and the question is more straightforward, it is easy for her to panic and be afraid, so that she can't ask anything, if the prince believes me, I can go with my sister and ask as a woman." ”

Donglin Shuo really didn't expect that he would still be educated by Chu Nanxin, but after thinking about it, he still felt that what Chu Nanxin said made sense, so he retracted his mind of wanting to interrogate, and nodded appreciatively: "It's still the princess's thoughtfulness, this time it's up to you to go, and this king will check other clues." ”

So, the two set off to the place where the witness was, because the officials were all men, and they didn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and the woman didn't cooperate at that time, so the officials forcibly pulled the person over, so this time the woman's mental state was very bad, and she kept muttering: "Let me go, let me go!" I'm going to report to the police! I'm going to report to the police and arrest you all! ”

Seeing this, Chu Nanxin stepped forward, the woman immediately retreated in fear, and Chu Nanxin said softly: "Don't be afraid, we are not here to harm you, we are here to seek justice for you, and we want to arrest the person who hurt you." ”

Hearing this, the woman asked suspiciously, "You? It's up to you? ”

"Naturally, I am the concubine of King Qi, and the one next to me is the famous General Xuanwei." Chu Nanxin held the woman's hand and reassured the woman.

After hearing this, the woman immediately grabbed Chu Nanxin's hand excitedly: "Princess Niangniang, General Chu, you have to make the decision for me!" I...... I ......"

As she spoke, she actually cried again, Chu Nanxin hurriedly took her own handkerchief to wipe her tears, and her movements were gentle, fortunately, she often coaxed Xiao Shizi in the house and knew how to give people a sense of security.

And Chu Nanyue didn't have Chu Nanxin's patience at all, she didn't speak, just silently looked at Chu Nanxin in front of her and comforted the woman.

"What's your name?" Chu Nanxin saw that the woman was almost crying, so he asked out loud.

The woman wiped away her tears, but her voice was still choked, and she said, "The maid's name is Gu Liang, and the rouge shop opposite the Baixiang Pavilion was opened by my cousin. ”

As soon as she heard the proprietress of the rouge shop, Chu Nanyue subconsciously clenched her fists, that was the victim.

Chu Nanxin continued to ask softly: "Then what happened this afternoon, you tell me slowly." ”

As soon as she heard about the afternoon's events, Gu Liang trembled, as if she didn't want to think about those things anymore, she closed her eyes, grabbed Chu Nanxin's hand suddenly, and said: "The people's daughter originally crossed the river, this year's river flood, my home is very close to the river, my parents are unfortunate, all died because of the flood, I have no relatives and friends in crossing the river, my cousin wrote to me, asking me to come over to celebrate the New Year with her, and by the way, help her run a rouge shop together." ”

When it came to what was going to happen, Gu Liang couldn't say any more, Chu Nanxin stroked her back and said, "Don't worry, no one can hurt you, General Chu will protect you." ”

Gu Liang then raised three points of courage, and continued: "The wind and snow in Beijing are too big, I delayed for three days to arrive, my cousin went out to pick me up, it was already night when I saw my cousin, because it was the New Year, so there were no pedestrians on the road, my cousin cared about me and wanted to help me get things, who knew that at this time, the villain appeared." ”

When she mentioned the villain, her eyes were full of helplessness, and she felt as if she couldn't go on, so Chu Nanxin simply hugged her and said, "Don't be afraid, it's all over, General Chu will seek justice for you." ”

The word "General Chu" seems to have some magic power for some reason, when she heard this word, Gu Liang seemed to feel a lot more at ease, she tried to make herself stronger, and then continued: "The gangster wrapped himself in a face towel and pulled me and my cousin to a house in an alley where no one lived, he began to take off his cousin's clothes, my cousin kept shouting for help, I was also very scared, I yelled frantically, telling him to let my cousin go, the gangster seemed to be impatient, and gave me a slap with his backhand and slapped me to the ground, and I was unconscious. ”

"When I woke up, I saw that my cousin was dead in bed, and the gangsters were gone, and I didn't know anyone in Beijing, so I could only walk around the streets, and then I met the officials and brought me back."

Hearing this Gu Liang say this, Chu Nanyue subconsciously frowned, this is not right, she asked, "Have you seen the characteristics of that gangster?" ”

Gu Liang seemed to be recalling carefully, because she was too scared at the time to look carefully, so she recalled for a long time before she remembered it, and said, "That gangster has a mole between his eyebrows!" ”

"Do you know why that gangster killed your cousin and let you go?" Chu Nanxin also frowned and asked.

Gu Liang thought about it for a long time, but still shook his head: "I've thought about it too, but I can't figure out why." ”

"Are there any details at that time?" Chu Nanyue suddenly asked.

"I can't remember, I was scared at the time, and the gangsters knocked me unconscious later, so I didn't know."

After the questioning was over, according to the usual practice, Chu Nanxin recorded this confession, Chu Nanyue frowned and looked at the record in front of him, and said to Chu Nanxin: "I always feel that this record is not quite right. ”
