Chapter 124: She's Worth It

"How did you know about the fire in Yuxiangfang? When did you get to Yuxiangfang? Did you organize people to fight fires? How long did the fire burn? What are you doing? Jiang Yuanliu's eyes were cold, and he stared at the captain of the guard.

Hearing Jiang Yuanliu's series of questions, the face of the captain of the guard changed again and again, the shops on this street are all relying on dignitaries and dignitaries, if one of them does not answer well, it is easy to be attacked by a group.

"This ...... Naturally, I received a report from someone, so I waited until I came to save people. The captain of the guard said hesitantly.

Jiang Yuanliu's eyes darkened, "Then when the fire broke out, did anyone escape, and did anyone hear the cry for help?" ”

"This is really not, the fire is very strong, we are afraid that the fire is fast and the surrounding houses will be burned down, so when the fire happens, we immediately come out to put out the fire, it's really strange, why no one escaped?"

The person who watched the excitement said loudly, his shop was opposite, and he was the first to find out that there was a fire on the opposite side, although he was usually jealous of Yuxiangfang's good business, but if such a big thing happened, he really couldn't stand by and watch, and he couldn't save him when he died.

So he immediately rushed to his yard and took out a bucket to run out to put out the fire, and specially called for help from the neighbors around him, so it can be said that he participated in the whole process.

"I am the owner of the incense powder shop opposite, and I was enjoying the cool at the door, when I found a burst of black smoke coming out of the opposite shop, and the black smoke was billowing out of the sky in an instant, and the fire was soaring, but the strange thing is that no one called for help." The owner of the incense powder shop was also very puzzled.

The people present are all clever people, and they are not fools who can be the treasurer of the family, and they understand that there must be something strange in it after a little thought.

The face of the owner of the incense powder shop changed and changed, the boss of this Yuxiangfang is the lord of Yuluo, backed by the eldest princess and the king of Qi, even if it is a relative of the emperor, he does not dare to provoke, he can covet the business in the shop opposite, but he does not dare to deal with it, because he is afraid of the power of the lord of Yuluo.

But now someone dares to set fire to and kill people in the shop of the county lord of Yuluo, and the murderer behind him must have forces that are not inferior to the lord of Yuluo, and a flat-headed junior like him can't afford to provoke him.

So everyone who was still watching the excitement just now all made excuses to leave.

The captain of the guard looked bad, and greeted his subordinates with a frown, "What are you all doing in a daze!" One by one, they eat the emperor's food and don't do anything, and dare to be lazy under Lao Tzu's nose! Don't hurry up and carry these corpses to Jingzhao Mansion. ”

A coldness flashed in Jiang Yuanliu's eyes, if these corpses were carried to Jingzhao Mansion, it would be difficult for her to take another look, just looking at the style of this guard captain, she didn't believe that there was no cat in it at all.

"You also heard it just now, no one escaped from the Yuxiang Fang, as the boss, in order to cooperate with the Jingzhao Mansion in handling the case, I voluntarily identified the body, you blocked it in every possible way, did you want to shield the murderer!" Jiang Yuanliu asked angrily.

Gu Jinshu also said in a timely manner: "Jingzhao Mansion does not have a rule that does not allow the bitter master to identify the corpse. ”

"This ...... It was unfair to the deceased to lift the white cloth in public, and it was better to wait until Jingzhao Mansion to talk about it. "The captain of the guard was in a cold sweat, this Gu Xiaohou is not stingy, how can he be in a hurry, give him two slaps, he has no place to reason. 、

"It's all watched early and late, is it possible that you don't want to solve the case early?" Gu Jinshu's eyes were cold, he beckoned, and immediately rushed up, blocking in front of the captain of the guard without a trace.

Jiang Yuanliu took the opportunity to immediately squat down, her fingers touched the white cloth, and after hesitating for a moment, under the white cloth was the corpse of her confidant and friend, and the corpse of the person who burned to death would be very hideous, she didn't want her friend's corpse to be exposed in front of people.

However, she didn't want her friend to die without explanation!

So Jiang Yuanliu gritted his teeth and lifted the white cloth, and below was the charred corpse, which was completely unrecognizable, and could only be identified by the non-flammable jewelry he was wearing.

The jade bracelet is Yuan Xiwen's, it can't be wrong, the jade pendant on her waist was given to Yuan Xiwen by her, and at this time, a line was deeply embedded in the corpse.

Before seeing the corpse, Jiang Yuanliu was hopeful that someone would kidnap Yuan Xiwen and replace it with another corpse, but now the last hope was dashed.

"That's not right! There's no soot in her throat! Jiang Yuanliu endured his grief and looked up and down, and then found something that made people angry, but at the same time expected.

Jiang Yuanliu said in his neighborhoods that no one called for help when the fire broke out, and no one escaped from the fire, so he had expected that someone must have killed people first and then set the fire.

Gu Jinshu looked at the other corpses, he stopped Jiang Yuanliu's shoulder, and said, "The most important thing now is to determine whether there is Zhao Yuluo among these corpses." ”

"What do you mean?" A hint of complexity flashed in Jiang Yuanliu's eyes, it was all this time, and Gu Jinshu was still thinking about power.

But Zhao Yuluo is also her friend, even if people are close and close, she doesn't want Zhao Yuluo's corpse to be among them, so without waiting for Gu Jinshu to say anything, she seized the opportunity to check it out.

The obstruction of the captain of the guard just now made Jiang Yuanliu chuckle in his heart, worried about what clues would appear.

"No, Yuluo is not one of them." Jiang Yuanliu let out a sigh of relief, but his eyes were full of sorrow, and the fourteen people in Yuxiangfang were all killed in the fire.

Yuan Xiwen, who is weak but stoic, the naughty and lively little maid who runs the hall, and the honest and honest aunt who sweeps the house, have now become a charcoal-like corpse.

The captain of the guard and a person hurriedly ran over and talked for a long time, and suddenly let out a loud shout, pulled out the big knife on his waist, and pointed at Jiang Yuanliu.

"Someone! Catch her for me! ”

Gu Jinshu and the guards immediately blocked in front of Jiang Yuanliu, and Gu Jinshu asked coldly, "Why are you arresting people?" ”

"Just because she pretended to be the lord of Yuluo, just because someone reported her arson and murder! The county lord of Yuluo has been missing for two days, and the last thing I saw was this woman! When she saw the wealth, she wanted to embezzle the profits of Yuxiangfang, had a dispute with the lord of Yuluo, and then killed people and set fires! The captain of the guard pointed at Jiang Yuanliu and said angrily.

"You say I set fire to kill people in order to embezzle the profits of Yuxiangfang?" Jiang Yuanliu sneered, with endless ridicule, and someone else reported her? It seems that this is a link and a link.

The captain of the guard ignored Jiang Yuanliu, he waved his hand, the guards of Jingzhao Mansion all surrounded Gu Jinshu and Jiang Yuanliu, and the captain of the guard said coldly: "Master Gu Xiaohou, Marquis Wu Ying is reasonable and understands righteousness, do you, as the prince of the world, want to shield the murderer?" ”

"Think of a captain of the guard, what qualifications do you have?" Gu Jin was expressionless and his voice was gloomy.

"It seems that Gu Xiaohou is going to hinder us from performing our official duties! Then don't blame me for being rude! Jingzhao Mansion is the emperor's order, and Jingzhao Mansion Yin has the privilege of being able to go directly to heaven without going through the three divisions! Don't say that you are a little marquis, even if Wu Yinghou comes to cooperate with the case! The captain of the guard beamed.

What if Gu Jinshu has a knighthood! It's not that you have to obey your fate.

Jiang Yuanliu frowned, the number of guards in Jingzhao Mansion far exceeded the people brought by Gu Jinshu, not to mention that now at the feet of the Son of Heaven, if they didn't want to be wanted by the whole country, they couldn't resist.

So Jiang Yuanliu said: "Isn't it just a trip to Jingzhao Mansion?" The clear is self-purifying, the turbid is self-turbid, I am innocent, I am not afraid of someone framing me, Jinshu, you have to do me a favor and find Yuluo. ”

She is now very worried about Zhao Yuluo's safety, the people behind her are ruthless, and she will have fourteen lives as soon as she makes a move, Zhao Yuluo's status is noble, but it is difficult to protect it.

Without waiting for Gu Jinshu to refuse, Jiang Yuanliu walked over the crowd and walked in front of the captain of the guard and said, "I can meet you in Jingzhao Mansion with you, but I want to meet the person who accused me!" ”

"Sooner or later! When Lord Yin finds out the truth, you will have a chance to go to court against that person! The captain of the guard was dismissive.

A hint of darkness flashed in Jiang Yuanliu's cold eyes, the person behind this didn't make a move, and as soon as he made a move, he forced her to a dead end, it seemed that he wanted to play a good show for her.

Gu Jinshu watched Jiang Yuanliu being taken away by the people of Jingzhao Mansion, and his eyes flashed with a grim and cold glow.

"Little Marquis, you must be calm, if you block the Jingzhao Mansion from handling the case, you will be detained justifiably, who will run for Miss Jiang at that time?" His subordinates hurriedly persuaded Gu Jinshu.

What his subordinates understand, he doesn't know, but he knows in his heart that it's one thing, and it's impossible not to worry.

"Is there any news on Zhao Yuluo's whereabouts?" Gu Jinshu asked coldly, in the eyes of those nobles, the fourteen people who died in Yuxiangfang didn't matter much, and Zhao Yuluo's disappearance was the most important thing.

The subordinate shook his head ashamedly, "The county lord of Yuluo disappeared in Yuxiangfang, and many people watched the county lord of Yuluo enter Yuxiangfang with their own eyes, and then they were never seen again. ”

Hearing this, Gu Jinshu clenched his fists with both hands, instructed his subordinates to continue the investigation, and then changed his clothes and sneaked into a family that looked inconspicuous.

"Your Highness, I will use it to listen." Gu Jinshu's voice was extremely low, and his voice was hoarse.

The second prince sighed faintly, "Jinshu, you and I have known each other for many years, and this is the first time you have begged me." ”

He has always known that Gu Jinshu is a rare talent, but Gu Jinshu is obscure and has no interest in seizing the throne, so he refuses to stand in line and is only willing to be a friend to him.

This was the first time Gu Jinshu took the initiative to contact his forces.

"For a woman, is it worth it?" The second prince was puzzled, Gu Jinshu was such a rational person, he would voluntarily join him for the sake of a woman, just to borrow his intelligence network.

"She is worth it, as long as Your Highness lends me to listen to it, I am willing to help Your Highness get what she wants." Thinking that Jiang Yuanliu might be wronged in Jingzhao Mansion, Gu Jinshu didn't want to delay for a moment, and said very bluntly.
