Chapter 88: Investigation

The group entered the village, and at dusk, the peasants, who had been busy all day, were walking to their homes with all kinds of farm tools.

Some of the children were playing, and when they saw the group riding a tall horse into their village, they stopped curiously, looking at Gu Yi and the others in front of them with burning eyes.

Gu Yi waved his hand at one of them and motioned for him to come over, and Jiang Wen behind him also shouted when he saw him stop: Huh~

The child who was waved by Gu Yi looked to the side, and he didn't know who the young master on the horse was calling.

"Little brother, don't look at it, it's you." Seeing this, Gu Yi smiled, turned over and dismounted, took a few steps closer, and said, "Child, where is your village home?" Brother is looking for something in you, don't worry, we are not bad people. ”

Seeing this, Jiang Wen and the others behind him had no choice but to turn over and dismount, simply holding the reins and standing behind Gu Yi.

Gu Yi understood the child's restraint, tried to smile gently, and lowered his voice to ask.

Seeing this, the partner behind the child immediately surrounded him and stood beside the little boy just now, as if he was cheering him on, and the two less courageous ones were standing behind the boy, just showing their heads, looking at Gu Yi and the others.

Jiang Wen and the others held back a smile behind them, Gu Yi was younger than them, thinking that he would step forward to ask the children, the effect would be better, but they didn't expect that Gu Yi usually looked cold and serious.

However, the boy was not afraid, but looked at the group of people in front of him who had "broken into" their village, as if trying to discern whether they were the "good people" that Gu Yi said.

I only heard the boy say, "Big brother, what are you looking for in our village?" The boy still asked cautiously, which made Gu Yi admire, in front of strangers, he knew not to be tricked into the news, but to ask the person who came first, it seems that the child's father and mother have a good education.

The partner behind the child also leaned over to his side and said carefully: "Brother Yu, they can't be bad people, right?"

Gu Yi and the others are all people who practice martial arts, what the kid thought was whispering, but in fact, they all heard it clearly, Gu Yi had a black line on his face, and he was regarded as a bad guy at this time?

Jiang Wen, Jiang Wu and the others couldn't help laughing, especially Jiang Wu lowered his head and covered his mouth, but his shoulders were shaking slightly, and he was holding back a smile at a glance.

"Little brother, we are looking for you to be right, we are not bad people."

Gu Yi had to show once again that they were good people, and they slandered in their hearts, are all children so smart now? It seems to forget that he himself is only thirteen years old this year, if according to Jingxi, in the future world, he is still just a "cub", the age of being protected.

At this moment, a villager came up, holding a bamboo strip in his hand, and shouted: "Little fish~"

Gu Yi and the others knew after thinking about it that this person should have come to look for the child to go home, looking at the bamboo strips in his hand, it seemed that the child was going to be beaten.

What he didn't expect was that the villager walked towards them, quickly pulled the child who was asked just now, and then said, "What are the young masters doing when they come to our village?"

While watching them warily.

Get! You don't think they're bullying children, are you? Gu Yi was speechless, followed suit, and then said: "Uncle, we are passing by, it is getting late, and we want to spend the night in your village, so we will leave tomorrow morning." ”

"I see." The villager whispered, followed by the little boy who was pulled behind him, "Dad, they asked where our house was as soon as they came, but I didn't tell them." ”

It turns out that this person is the Li Zheng of this village, and this little boy is still a kid from the Li Zheng family, no wonder he is so cautious, Gu Yi thought to himself.

"Below is the village of Lizheng, a few of them are going to spend the night, right?" The man looked at the people in front of him, his eyes were straight, and he was full of righteousness, not like those reckless and treacherous people, and his heart was settled.

"Li Zheng, under Gu Yi, the few people behind him are all my brothers."

"Hello, in Xia Muping. In that case, please come with me. ”

Mu Ping said to Gu Yi and them, and then said to the children behind him: "It's not early, you should hurry up and go home, your father and mother are looking for you." ”

"Ah...... It's over, my dad has to beat me to death. ”

"My grandmother must be looking for me too, Uncle Ping, Brother Yu, I'll go home first."

When the children heard this, they immediately ran to their respective homes, just like the scene of their family members coming out with bamboo strips behind them to look for them.

In this way, the father and son led Gu Yi and them to their house and arranged for them to stay in their home.

As for the horses, they were led into the courtyard.

This small village is called Mujiazhuang, and most of the people in the village are surnamed Mu, and this Muping is the Lizheng of the village, full of righteousness, in Gu Yi's opinion, this is a good Lizheng.

And their son, that is, the boy, is called Mu Yu, who is only eight years old this year, and he is also clever and not afraid of life.

Mu Ping's wife saw that her husband brought a few young masters to the house and made a sumptuous dinner for them, Gu Yi and they couldn't shirk it, so they didn't refuse their kindness and dined with them.

Rushing from the capital all the way, Gu Yi and the others ate dry food most of the time, and now they have fragrant meals, and they feel emotional. The people of this village are the same as the people of Yunwu Village, simple and kind, and hospitable.

A dreamless night!

On the second day, when Gu Yi and the others got up, they saw the little boy Mu Yu standing in front of the stable, looking at the few horses in front of him with burning eyes, in their village, there were not even a few cows, let alone this horse that only rich families could afford?

Seeing this, Gu Yi smiled silently and said, "Little fish, like horses?"

"Big brother, are you up?" Mu Yu turned around and saw Gu Yi standing beside him, smiling and talking to him.

"Well, we'll be gone later."

"Then big brother, will we meet again in the future?"

"Definitely. But we're going to go now. Before Gu Yi could reply, someone behind him opened his mouth, it was Jiang Wen.

The morning light is faint, and the fiery red sun rises, dyeing the surrounding clouds red, and it looks very beautiful.

"Uncle Ping, we're leaving, farewell."

"Farewell."

Farewell

After the Mu family, Gu Yi and the others headed towards Qingshan County.

After a while, Mrs. Lizheng, that is, the mother of the little fish, found two ingots of silver pressed under the pillow when she was tidying up the room, which amounted to as many as twenty taels.

Mu Niangzi immediately called Mu Ping into the inner room, and then whispered to him, and showed the silver to her husband.

Seeing this, Mu Ping was also taken aback, and immediately figured out something, this should have been deliberately left by those young masters.

Then he said: "Put it away carefully, don't say anything about it, don't show your wealth." ”

Seeing this, Namu Niangzi immediately nodded cautiously: "I can save it, don't worry." ”

……

A day later, Kangyang County, Qingshan County, and Yunwu Village ushered in a group of people, and it was Gu Yi and others who said goodbye to Mujiazhuang, only to see them go straight to Gu's house.

When the villagers saw this, they were not curious.

In the past few years, with the development of Yunwu Village Winery, the scale of this Yunwu Village has long been larger than a few years ago, and now Yunwu Village is a rich village that everyone in the county envies. And Gu Zhai has people riding horses or driving carriages almost every once in a while, which is no longer strange.

And the Li Zheng of Cloud Village is no longer Li Zihao, but Lu Bai has become the Li Zheng of Cloud Village.

As for Li Zihao, with his own efforts and the recommendation of King Rong's Mansion, he became the county magistrate of Qingshan County.

Yes, prefectural order.

Originally, the county order of Qingshan County had returned to his hometown two years ago, so the position of the county order was naturally vacant, of course, now Kangyang County is Jingxi's fiefdom, but it is just a candidate to recommend a county order, and the emperor is to give face.

……

Cloud Village, Gu Zhaili,

"Brother Gu Bin, what's going on in this wine shop?" Gu Yi and the others, who entered Gu's house, went straight to the point and talked to this Gu Bin.

This Gu Bin is the manager of the winery, and Jingxi handed over the winery to him when he returned to Beijing a few years ago.

"It's okay in the wine shop, it's just that recently a group of thieves have been targeting the goods we shipped to the capital, and we have been robbed of two batches of wine." Gu Bin, as well as the housekeeper of the Gu house, and Gu Yi and others who came in a hurry were talking about this incident in the hall at the moment.

"Thieves? How can there be thieves? Now who in the Xia Kingdom doesn't know that this Cloud Wine Workshop is owned by the county lord? Do you dare to rob the things of the Rong Palace?" Jiang Wen was puzzled.

Not only him, but everyone was puzzled, and the people sent out did not get any useful information.

"Why didn't you tell your master about this?" Gu Yi asked, he was robbed of two batches of wine, why didn't he tell his master about this? No wonder Young Master Mo said that there was a problem with the goods shipped recently, but fortunately, the county lord still has a batch in the mansion.

"This group of thieves appeared inexplicably, I don't worry, I went to investigate in person, I have sent a message to the master a few days ago, presumably now the master already knows the beginning and the end." Gu Bin explained.

"I was thinking about how to deal with that group of thieves, and here you are." Gu Bin continued.

At this time, a little maid walked in with freshly brewed tea, "Everyone, please use tea." ”

"Steward, letter from the capital!"

Just when everyone was thinking about how to solve the problem, a small guy hurriedly held a bamboo tube

Walked in, apparently freshly removed from the carrier pigeon.

"It seems to be the master's reply." As Gu Yi spoke, he saw Gu Bin open the bamboo tube and take out the letter inside.

Sure enough, this letter was sent by Jingxi's flying pigeon. As early as the day before yesterday, Jing Xi learned the whole story.

It turned out to be the power of the Pang family, and the Pang family originally thought about how to get Jingxi's wine-making recipe, but they didn't get it for a long time, so they could only retreat to the next best thing, and prepared to intercept the wine transported from Kangyang County in the middle of the capital, and cut off the supply of the drunken immortal residence in the capital, that is, they planned for a long time, and finally implemented the plan a month ago and grabbed two batches of wine.

Not long after sending Gu Yi and the others out, Jing Xi received a message from Gu Bin and understood it.

The Pang family sent the "thieves" to succeed twice, and then the news came that the Pang family was beheaded all over the house, and the thieves did not dare to show up again, hiding in the mountains, yes, everyone thought that this was a bandit.

The matter is clear, but the Pang family has secretly found trouble so many times, and it is also thanks to Gu Bin's good ability to solve it by himself, if it weren't for this time, Jing Xi would still not know.

Therefore, the letter from Jing Xi said: Qin Zhijie guards her and knows her, and she is a good person. This time, Gu Yi and others happened to be there, and asked them to assist Qin Junshou and directly solve these "bandits".

First, she is also angry, and secondly, Jing Xi is also afraid that after a long time, these people sent by the Pang family will really fall into the grass, and it will not be good to harm the township, not to mention that this is still her fiefdom.
