"My lord, are we just going to rush in like that?" Yan Suwen pinched the corner of the face towel and pulled it on the bridge of his nose. The first time she wore a nightcoat, she felt a novelty, especially when she put the black face towel over her face, she could almost hear her own heart pounding.

"Are you scared?"

"I'm not afraid, I just feel a little nervous." Yan Suwen rubbed his hands: "That...... Is there anything I need to pay special attention to when I am a female snitch for the first time? ”

"Nope!" Gu Changfeng's face did not change, and his subordinates gently mentioned it, and threw Yan Suwen to the wall.

"So, what if you run into someone, or someone finds out?"

"You can choose to call for help or just kill them."

"Call for help?" Yan Suwen thought about it casually, and then vetoed: "Will it be illegal to kill people directly?" ”

"In Rongcheng, I am the king!" As he spoke, Gu Changfeng tapped his toes lightly and jumped onto the wall.

The Prime Minister is the Prime Minister, and even saying such unreasonable things seems so promoting. Yan Suwen stroked his chest, measured the distance from the wall to the ground, moved his limbs, jumped slightly, and made a standard landing action.

On the wall, Gu Changfeng looked at her back and fell into deep thought.

"My lord, come down, you're so tall, even if you're wearing a night suit, the goal is too obvious." I got up and turned around to find that the domineering Prime Minister was still standing on the wall. He clasped his hands together, gathered into the shape of a small trumpet, and shouted softly at him: "This is the first time I have been a thief, and I don't want to be caught when I enter the door." ”

"Who taught you Kung Fu?" Gu Changfeng landed on the ground and walked behind her: "The action you landed on the ground is different from others. ”

"Is it different?" Yan Suwen thought about it for a while, her movements were all restored based on memory, and even if there were errors, it should not be much worse.

"The action you made when you landed is very similar to what Yunfei and them do every day." Gu Changfeng looked at Yan Suwen's eyes: "Yunfei, I brought it out from the barracks of the Qi family's army. At that time, he was not called Gu Yunfei, nor was he a member of Da Wei. He was a prisoner of war in Nanshu, a prisoner of war who was only twelve years old. At that time, he was tied to a pillar and his body was covered in signs of whipping, and as I passed by him, I stopped and asked him why he went to battle at such a young age. He said he had no choice. ”

"Why don't you have a choice?"

"Because of poverty! Since ancient times, those who have been soldiers have not survived, and Nanshu is the same. Yunfei is the fourth in line, and there are three elder brothers on it, but all three elder brothers died outside because of being soldiers. As the only remaining fourth child in their family, it is said that his father and mother should be reluctant to him, but because of a bag of brown rice, his father and mother pressed their handprints on the deed, changed his age, and let him replace the children of a rich family on the battlefield. He wants to live, but it's not so easy to survive the bloodthirsty battlefield. He wanted to die, but in the barracks, he couldn't help himself if he wanted to die. ”

"I can't imagine that Gu Yunfei, who is so heartless, has such a miserable and bumpy experience."

"Because he didn't have a choice, I gave him a choice. I let him choose to live or die, let him choose to leave Dawei and return to Nanshu, or stay in Dawei and stay by my side. He chose to become Gu Yunfei and become the Gu Xiao General you see now. ”

"Adults are indeed adults!"

Yan Suwen squinted, full of sincere compliments.

Gu Changfeng's gaze swept over her squinted eyes, and continued: "The action you just landed on the ground is what Yunfei and the others often do in the barracks. ”

Through the face towel, Yan Suwen pursed his mouth: "It's not strange, maybe the person who taught me also came out of the barracks." Over there, there seems to be movement, my lord is waiting, I'll go over and take a look. ”

Yan Suwen was looking for an excuse to escape from Gu Changfeng's eyes, but she never thought that she really saw a person, a person hanging on a tree, who was already dead.

"It's—"

"Judging by what he's wearing, he should be the owner of this inn."

"Silenced?" Yan Suwen stared at the man who was hanging from the tree.

A night breeze blew, and the corpses hanging from the trees swung with them. Yan Suwen walked around to the front of the corpse and saw a dead face with surprise.

The deceased, Wang Fugui, was thirty-eight years old, the owner of Yongan Inn in Rongcheng. There are no parents, no wives and children, and not even a good match. According to the information left by the government, this Wang Fugui arrived in Rongcheng ten years ago, and then took down this inn and changed its name to Yong'an.

Yongan Inn is also known as the Poor Man's Inn, because there is no upper room, middle room and lower room in this inn, only a large shop. If you can live here, you naturally don't have money in your pocket, but because it is a chase shop, the price is cheap, so the business of Yongan Inn is better than other inns. In terms of business economics, this is called small profits but quick turnover, although it cannot make money every day, but it can accumulate a lot.

Yongan Inn closed its doors half a year ago, saying that it was going to rectify the interior of the inn, because of this, those old customers also came to the door many times, and they were all sent away by Wang Fugui.

"My lord, do you think this Wang Fugui is one of theirs?"

"What is the cause of death?"

"Suffocated to death, judging from the death of the deceased, the way of suffocation and the clothes on his body, Wang Fugui should have been suffocated by someone by the neck without defense. Judging from the strangulation marks left on his neck and the results of the inquest at the inn, he should have been lying on the bed, preparing to go to bed or getting up, and the murderer hid behind his head, that is, the position of the bed, and then suddenly struck out and strangled his neck with a murder weapon prepared in advance. Wang Fugui's eyelids rolled up, and the whole person showed a surprised expression, which showed that he didn't expect someone to kill him, or rather, he knew the murderer. ”

"Tell me what you think."

"If Wang Fugui is their man, what is their reason for killing Wang Fugui? A person who is willing to abandon everything and stay in Rongcheng for ten years is loyal and trustworthy to the people behind the scenes. Could it be that they found out that Wang Fugui was selfish and no longer loyal to them?

From another point of view, if Wang Fugui is not their person, then why should he help them hide it? Because of the money, or because of something else. ”

"Just check the details of this Wang Fugui."

"It's been ten years, I'm afraid it's hard to check. I even suspect that Wang Fugui is not his name at all. ”

"Madam is right, this Wang Fugui is really not his real name." Gu Yunfei pushed the door and entered, and glanced at Wang Fugui's body that was placed there: "Wang Fugui's appearance in Rongcheng was deliberately arranged by someone, and that person was Guo Zonglin, the former prefect of Rongcheng. ”

"Then, where is this Guo Zonglin now?"

"Dead!"

"Dead?"

"It is said that he was hacked to death." Gu Yunfei shrugged his shoulders slightly, and handed Yan Su a stack of files: "That year, Rongcheng suffered a flood that was rare in a century, and this Governor Guo was worried about being blamed by the boss because of the unfavorable disaster resistance, so he actually took his family's money and wanted to sneak away. Who knows, halfway through the escape, he was struck by thunder, and the outside of the split was scorched and the inside was tender, and he almost couldn't tell that it was him. This case was also handled by our father-in-law, but unfortunately, the post-mortem at that time was not Mrs. ”

"Is there such a coincidence in the world?"

"Otherwise, how can we say that people can't do bad things, and if they do bad things, they will be easily struck by lightning."

"It's a sedan chair." Gu Changfeng added on the side: "This Guo Zonglin is used to being pampered, even if he escapes, he has to take a sedan chair. There was something on the top of the sedan chair that caused thunder and lightning, and it happened to be walking in the water at that time, and it was split. ”

"In this way, it seems that God has long eyes." Yan Suwen pondered for a moment: "Then what is the relationship between Guo Zonglin and Wang Fugui?" ”

"From the bright side, it doesn't matter, but many years ago, another incident happened in Yecheng."

"What's the matter?"

Some officials impeached Guo Zonglin, saying that he had filled his pockets and bribed important officials of the imperial court. On the same night that the official was ordered to enter Beijing, he was mistakenly killed. The killer pleaded guilty on the spot, but the official's servant has been missing since. ”

"Wang Fugui is that servant?"

"Yes!" Gu Yunfei handed over another file: "Judging from the scene where the official was mistakenly killed, he was deliberately led to that place, and the troublemakers were also arranged in advance. The so-called manslaughter is actually murder. It's just that there is no evidence, and the murderer pleaded guilty on the spot, and the case was confusing. Subsequently, the servant disappeared, Wang Fugui appeared in Rongcheng, Guo Zonglin happened to be the prefect of Rongcheng, and justifiably gave Wang Fugui a new identity and a new foothold. ”

"After talking for a long time, I still haven't figured out the cause of Wang Fugui's death."

"Guo Zonglin is the person of Marquis Xuan."

"Lord Xuanhou ...... Is that the one who has a close past with Nanshu? ”

"Yes, it is the one who has a close relationship with Nanshu, and he is also the one who has sent people to assassinate our family many times."

"Guo Zonglin is the person of the Marquis of Xuan, and Wang Fugui helped Guo Zonglin get rid of the people who wanted to impeach him, so Wang Fugui became Guo Zonglin's person, and he also became the person of the Marquis of Xuan. If, those who abducted girls and plundered young children were also the people of Marquis Xuan, Wang Fugui would have a reason to help those people. The inn was closed because there were some people in the inn who could not be seen from outside, and those people might be killers, assassins, and missing girls and children hidden in Rongcheng. ”

"In the secret room of the Yongan Inn, we found the wooden box where the spices were stored, but unfortunately, the spices inside were gone."

"Are there any traces of young girls and missing children?"

"No, but we found something else." Gu Yunfei handed over a list: "These lists of items purchased by Yongan Inn in the past six months, rice, meat, and vegetables are all greater than in the past. Also, the Yongan Inn was only for people to stay before, and did not provide meals. These things can't be eaten by one or two people, right? ”

"Therefore, they killed Wang Fugui, not because Wang Fugui was not loyal to them, but because they were worried that we would find more things by following Wang Fugui's clue. When a person dies, the clue is broken, and even if we find something, we can die without proof. Those people are really ruthless. ””
