Chapter 076: Hijacking
"Is Rue Xiangfang far from here?"
"Not far."
"I'd like to check it out."
"But the master is still in the mansion......"
"My lord is busy with official business, so I shouldn't have time to take care of me, and as my lord's future wife, I don't think I should bother my lord at this time."
"Madam......" Gu Yunfei tugged at the corners of his mouth: "That's right." ”
Going to Yunxiangfang, it is still the road led by Cui You'an, he is from Rongcheng, and he is very familiar with the things in this city. Like all crime scenes, the door of Ruxiang Fang is also affixed with a special seal made by the government, and all the items in the workshop are still the same as they were at the time of the crime.
Push the door and drop some dust. Yan Suwen wrinkled her nose and smelled a smell of spices from the dust. The taste is miscellaneous, and it is the taste of a variety of spices mixed together.
As Cui You'an said, the Rue Xiangfang is cleaned very clean, but the boat has left traces, and wherever it has been turned upside down, there will always be some clues.
"It's all spices, right?" Yan Suwen opened a small wooden box and noticed the spices scattered in the box.
"Yes, except for the spices in the Rue Xiang Workshop, the rest is only spices. Unlike other girls, Miss Rue is always plain, so there are not many personal items in this shop, and there are no things that her daughter's family likes such as rouge and gouache. ”
Cui You'an seemed to be very familiar with this rue girl, and Yan Suwen had doubts in her heart, but she didn't make it clear.
Although the floor was swept, there were still omissions in the details, and Yan Suwen found a few rut marks on the wooden shelves where the spices were placed.
"It's not the Chen family who emptied these spices." Yan Suwen pointed to the small wooden box he had just opened: "Although I don't know about spices, I also know that the things contained there must not be directly touched with my hands, let alone grabbed by my hands at will." Look at the box, it's full of crumbs of spices, and there are fingernail marks on the edges. The Chen family has been making incense for generations, even if it is a subordinate, it is impossible to be so rude.
Also, the rut mark is so close to the wooden rack where the spices are placed, which shows that the people who evacuated the spices acted in a hurry, and in order to save as much time as possible, and also to hide the traces, they pushed the wooden carts in. With so many wooden carts, there must be so many people, otherwise it would not have been possible to clean this place so cleanly in a short period of time.
Mr. Cui said that this Rue Xiang Workshop has always been taken care of by the Rue Xiang girl, which shows that she has extremely strict requirements for the production and sale of spices, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people, including the people of their Chen family. For someone like Miss Rue, it is a matter of course not to allow outsiders to treat their spices so rudely. ”
"That'...... Where will those who transport spices go? ”
"If the testimony of the husband is true, at that time, the person who carried the spices would never have been able to leave Rongcheng. Since they are heading in the direction of the Chen family, they might as well follow this clue to investigate. So many people, so many spices, even if they are temporarily stored somewhere, they will leave traces. Also, check to see if anyone left the city during that time. ”
"The city has been sealed, how can they get out of the city?"
"Isn't the gate also closed when we enter the city?"
"That's because—" Gu Yunfei stopped talking, because he thought about it.
Cui Youan stood in the corner, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were cold.
Out of Yunxiangfang, Gu Yunfei went straight to the city gate, and Yan Suwen followed Cui You'an in the direction of the mansion.
"This isn't the way to the government, is it?"
"At this hour, the main street is bustling with people, and it is not easy to pass through horse-drawn carriages. This road, although it is a little detoured, is also secluded. ”
"It's really secluded, but Mr. Lautre himself is driving the car."
"Miss is serious, being able to drive a car for Mrs. is a blessing that You'an has cultivated in his previous life."
"Mr. Cui and Miss Rue Xiang have known each other for a long time, right?"
"I am also from Rongcheng, and I have more or less met a few times."
"Sir seems to have a special interest in Miss Rue." Yan Su asked and said unhurriedly, "Does Mr. have a wife?" Do you have children at home? ”
"As a man who has not yet established a career, how can he talk about marrying a wife."
"A man is a businessman, but Mr. Cui has this business, it seems that something is inappropriate."
"Success or defeat, whether it is appropriate or not, it doesn't matter what you do, it only depends on whether you do it or not."
"Even if it's a breach of conscience? Even if it hurts someone you like? ”
"You An doesn't understand what Miss is talking about."
"The gentleman understands it in his heart, but the gentleman pretends not to understand." Yan Suwen squinted his eyes: "This place is secluded, far from the main street, and there is no way forward, even if you shout in your throat, no one will be able to hear you." Mr. Cui, are you ready to do it? ”
You'an finally understood that there are so many women in the world, why did he choose Miss. The young lady is intelligent, and she is more alert and calm than ordinary women. Cui You'an turned around, pulled out a soft sword from his waist, and laid it across Yan Suwen's neck: "Don't make a sound, otherwise I'll kill you now." ”
Yan Suwen nodded and looked at Cui You'an with a smile.
"Get out of the car." Cui You'an said in a cold voice.
It was the first time he had done such a thing as holding a soft sword on a woman's neck, and his voice was cold, but he was a little hesitant in his heart.
"Don't force me, if you make a little noise, I'll let you die in the streets."
While nodding, Yan Suwen held the inner wall of the carriage with his hand, moved his feet slightly, and walked down from the carriage.
"Mr. Cui, wasn't the original plan to let me die on the street?"
Cui You'an was stunned.
"Mr. Cui doesn't have to hesitate, even if he cuts this sword down."
"You're not afraid of death?"
"Death, naturally, is afraid, after all, if you live well, no one wants to die. But what's the use of being afraid, is it possible, I begged Mr. Cui now, I don't have to die? Yan Suwen asked softly.
"Naturally not, you are Xiangye's person, if I let you go, I won't be able to live."
"Mr. Cui is confused." Yan Suwen continued: "Even if Mr. Cui doesn't let me go, Mr. Cui won't be able to live." ”
Cui You'an snorted and brought the sword closer again.
"You're not me, how do you know I won't survive?"
"Originally, I didn't know, but Mr. Cui, you are afraid in your own heart. Along the way, I thought about it repeatedly, and I thought about what I said wrong, or what I did wrong, that made Mr. Cui jump over the wall in a hurry and decide to kidnap me halfway. I went through everything I said in my head, and finally, I figured it out. The loss of those spices in Ruxiangfang must be related to Mr. Cui, and Mr. Cui must also know where those spices went. ”
"So what?"
"When I was in Ruxiangfang, I told Gu Yunfei that the spices were transported out of Ruxiangfang in the middle of the night, and only two of them returned. First, it is to hide in the city temporarily, stay until daytime, and ship it out in batches when the time is right. The second is that there are people in the government to do internal response, and they can call open the city gate in the middle of the night to transport the spice out of the city. Mr. Cui is a person in the government, so he naturally knows that calling the city gate late at night is the easiest to attract the attention of others. To put it bluntly, a check will find Mr. Cui's head. Therefore the spice must be hidden in the city. ”
"And even if it is, what does it have to do with me?"
"That spice hiding place is where you live, Mr. Cui, right?" Yan Su asked tentatively. The husband's testimony said that after the spices were transported from Ruxiangfang, they went in the direction of the Chen family. Just now, I asked Gu Yunfei, Mr. Cui, your home is also in that direction, and it is not far from Chen's house.
Mr. Cui and Miss Rue Xiang also grew up together since childhood, right? Oh no, that's not an accurate description. Mr. Choi grew up watching Miss Rueh, right? ”
"It's worthy of being a woman that Xiangye likes, your mind is really thoughtful."
"Mr. Choi is wrong." Yan Suwen shook his head: "I just guessed casually, and it has nothing to do with being meticulous or not." ”
"Guess?" Cui You'an's hand holding the soft sword trembled.
Yan Su asked again: "Mr. Cui is wrong, at least this step taken today is a mistake." ”
"If it's wrong, it's wrong, just make a mistake to the end." Cui Youan clenched his soft sword: "I'm sorry Miss Yan, next year today, it will be your death sacrifice." ”
Yan Su asked and sighed, "It's okay, Mr. Cui will do it." ”
With that, his eyes closed slightly, and the person stood motionless.
Cui You'an began to feel uneasy in his heart, he looked at Yan Suwen's closed eyes, and his chest sounded like a drum beating chaotically. Over the years in the mansion, he has seen many women, but he has never seen someone like Yan Suwen, who is not afraid of danger in the face of death, and he can't even see the slightest fear.
"Are you really not afraid?"
"If Mr. Cui doesn't do it again, it's really too late." Yan Su asked to open his eyes and look at him: "According to Gu Yunfei's footsteps, most of them have already arrived at the city gate at this time, and they have asked the soldiers guarding the city gate. According to Mr. Cui's style of doing things, even if he goes out of the city during the day, most of them will do dots. There are so many spices, it is impossible for the defenders of the city not to check. If Gu Yunfei finds out about these, he will definitely think of Mr. Cui, Mr. thinks, will he go to the government office to inform the adults of his discovery, or will he turn back and come to me and Mr. ”
"This ......"
"He would fear for my safety and turn back to look for me and my husband." Yan Suwen glanced at Cui You'an and continued: "Gu Yunfei has been able to be by the side of adults for all these years, and his ability to do things is naturally not to be underestimated, and our carriage is so conspicuous that even if Mr. deliberately chooses a path, there will still be people who will pay attention." Mr. thinks, how long will Gu Yunfei arrive? ”
"His feet must not be as fast as the sword in my hand!"
"Sir's words, too much!" Yan Su asked, taking advantage of Cui You'an's unpreparedness to take a half step back: "Gu Yunfei, he's already here!" ”
"Madame is right, I have arrived." Gu Yunfei's voice fell to the ground, and the sword in his hand followed on Cui You'an's neck: "Sir, do you want to try, is Mr.'s sword fast, or my sword is fast?" ”
