The two of them went all the way to Devon House. It did not become depressed because of the two murders, but aroused the anger and blood of those literati, and at this time, the Devon building was overcrowded.

Yin Qingqi and Qi Yuan quietly entered the building, found a secluded place and sat down, watching what they were arguing about.

"What is it doing here?"

Qi Yuan looked at these people in front of him, and they seemed to be scholars, and many of them had already brought special scarves for Xiucai, which was much more lively than the inns in the capital.

And the furnishings of the Devon Building are also a little different, here is a large courtyard, there is a ring in the courtyard is the size of a room, and all around is a circle of cloisters, in the cloister are those tables, chairs and benches, there is also a second floor, the second floor is a single room, outside of these, is the room of the inn.

"This is unique to Yuzhou, Wendoulou, which is the place where these literati use to test their literary talents. You can imagine it as a place in ancient times where something was talked about and tried. ”

As soon as he said this, Qi Yuan immediately understood the role here, and a trace of yearning flashed in his eyes, maybe good talents can be found here.

Yin Qingqi glanced at him slightly, and said: "These are all flower postures, it's useless to ask for these, instead of doing this, it is better to learn the question that Qin Xiaogong came up with at the beginning." ”

Qi Yuan smiled, feeling that what Yin Qingqi said was reasonable.

Now that the world is becoming stable, what is needed is not people who fight, but people who govern, and the Celestial Empire does not need people who talk on paper, no matter how much they say, no matter how well the article is written, it is not as good as the truthful investigation and a policy discussion based on the local people's feelings.

"I know that the Celestial Empire is broken from the bottom, so we still have to start from the bottom."

In fact, Qi Yuan has another idea, if he can cultivate a corrupt official and control all these corrupt officials in his hands, how much they can be greedy can be decided by himself, maybe this world will not be too chaotic.

When the water is clear, there is no fish, this sentence is not false, corrupt officials will make money, and clean officials will govern the country, but if the treasury has no silver, where is the money to assist the people's livelihood.

However, at this time, Qi Yuan still didn't plan to say it, and now Qingqi's heart seemed to have this case in mind.

"Shopkeeper, this Devon Building, because it has to be opened no matter what!"

"Your sons are kind, the old man understands, but there are two murders in this building, and it doesn't seem to make much sense for me to continue to open it."

"How could it be pointless?! Do you know that your Devon Building is the foundation for many of our poor scholars to enter Beijing! ”

Those people are very sorry.

This is already the last Wendoulou in Yuzhou, if he can't open it, where will these scholars get the money for self-help in the future.

This Wendoulou is not only the bounty given by the shopkeeper in the end, but also the rich people who are willing to send charcoal in the snow to fund them as poor scholars, and if they pass the exam, they don't have to bother to find a relationship.

This is a mutually beneficial thing, and it can't be done later.

"You're really not going to drive, are you?"

"This Wen Dou Lou is the life's work of Xiao Lao'er, if it can be opened, it will naturally be opened, you can rest assured that this month's will still be opened, and after that, it will only be an ordinary inn."

The shopkeeper was a little sad and arched his hand at these people and said, "Continue today, and invite all the sons to cheer." ”

Seeing the shopkeeper's extraordinary determination, the group of scholars sighed and said that they would definitely participate, and then some traveled together, while others returned to their rooms and began to read books.

Yin Qingqi felt a little lost, if the Devon Building was not opened, it would be a loss for many scholars.

Qi Yuan gently scratched Yin Qingqi's nose and said, "If you think it's a pity, I'll find someone to take this place down, how about it?" ”

"Who knows if he'll sell it! Maybe people just want to turn this Wendoulou into an ordinary inn. ”

"It's not, it's true that he has no intention of continuing to operate and wants to redeem it. Have you seen a few people over there, they are all rich families in Yuzhou City, and I also saw people from the Liu family. ”

It's not that Qi Yuan knows them, it's just that he knows the family emblems on these people, especially the Liu family, who knows best.

Yin Qingqi frowned and asked, "Is it because there were two murders, so you were forced to buy and sell?" ”

"I don't know about this, or I'll send someone to inquire?"

Yin Qingqi shook his head, although he felt that these things were a little uncomfortable, but he had no relatives with this shopkeeper, and he didn't think about helping him, there were so many people out of this Devon Building, if he wanted to find someone to help, he naturally could, and he didn't need her, an outsider, to interfere.

What's more, she has some ideas about the thing Qi Yuan said, and it's not bad to find someone to buy it.

Wang Xu inquired all the way about the clerk's residence, and heard that the clerk was walking to the Devon Building, and he kept looking for it along the road.

At this time, the clerk was in a hurry to come to the shopkeeper, Yin Qingqi looked at the voice, and couldn't help but smile and said: "The person we are looking for has also come here, it seems that Wang Xu is going to run for nothing." ”

"You're talking about him?"

"Well, that's right. He was the most suspicious, and it was too strange that the two had just outdone him and died in the evening. However, because he has already won Xiucai, he cannot be arrested for interrogation without evidence.

Of course, the most important thing is that he doesn't actually have the ability to kill those people himself. ”

Qi Yuan nodded and said, "That's true, it's hard to imagine that he can kill two men, this person seems to be a little too thin." ”

"And he is really a weak scholar, and his steps are vain and weak. Therefore, Zhizhou just asked routinely. ”

In fact, the most important thing is that this man has no reason to kill those two people.

The two of them made up their minds, and after the man finished talking to the shopkeeper, he went to him, but looking at his eager expression, it seemed that he would not leave a chance for himself.

"Shopkeeper, since this is your last competition, can you ...... Can you give me another chance! ”

The shopkeeper glanced at the clerk, smiled bitterly and said: "I can't be the master, you still come over later, I will ask on the spot on the stage, if everyone has no objections, it is naturally okay." ”

The scholar showed a look of gratitude, fortunately, there was still this opportunity, he made a gesture at him, and ran back in a panic.

After that, there were many people who came to find the shopkeeper one after another, and Yin Qingqi and Qi Yuan sat aside and watched quietly.

There was an exclamation in his ears, there was actually a person who was scalded by the water in the teapot, and then there was a rush of people, carrying the water, with a circle of gauze on his head, lowering his head and letting others scold, although his expression was submissive, from Yin Qingqi's angle, he could just see the fierceness flashing in his eyes, and Yin Qingqi couldn't help but be stunned.

She suddenly figured out one thing, since she was committing the murder in this Devon Building, could the murderer be the person in the Devon Building?

Just as Yin Qingqi was thinking, Wang Xu had already come over, he looked around for a week, but he didn't see the clerk, and then he realized that he had missed it again.
