Xiao Cui exclaimed, what a big shelf, she couldn't help but say, "This person is so powerful, the master doesn't have such a big pomp when he goes out!" ”

An hour later, the door was hurriedly knocked open, Chunfeng flashed into the house, Gu Rong and Qiu saw that he was in a hurry, and they were all surprised, "What's wrong?" ”

Chunfeng said, "I stared at it all night, and before dawn today, Liu Yong was taken away." ”

To her surprise, Gu Rong was a little surprised, "Took it away?"

Chunfeng nodded and said, "It's Qiushui Mansion, I watched Liu Yong go in with my own eyes." ”

In this gourd, trying her best to think about some unknown medicines, Gu Rong was afraid that something would happen to Liu Yong, and she was afraid that at this time, she would only let her eldest brother come forward to explore, she said, "Qiuyi, you go to find my brother, just say, Lord Liu Yong, Lord Liu, didn't return overnight at Qiushui's house last night." ”

Qiu Yi got the order, and quickly went to the post station to find Wang Yan.

"Miss." Xiao Cui knocked on the door, followed by a short middle-aged man who looked like a Taoist robe, and said, "The person you want has been found." ”

The middle-aged man smiled, showed a row of neat teeth, and said, "I wonder what the young lady is looking for the villain?"

Gu Rong sat down, glanced at the man slightly, and said with a smile, "I heard that you have a nickname, called 'Baizhiwu', you know a lot of things, I have some things, I want to ask for advice." ”

The man bowed and said, "I am a fortune teller, and the girl has lifted it." ”

Gu Rong said, "That's nature. She waved her hand, Xiao Cui put the silver ticket prepared in advance in front of her, she smiled, "This is five thousand taels of silver ticket, deposit." ”

The middle-aged man took the silver ticket, and made sure that it was true, and couldn't help but secretly marvel in his heart, the girl in front of him was so generous!

Gu Rong held the teacup in her hand, still with a faint smile, and said, "I like to talk to Taoist priests in the rivers and lakes, and I don't have any rules, you can tell me about the Yandu in recent years." ”

The man who had a rich expression changed his face slightly, the silver ticket in his hand was like a deadly knife, and he couldn't laugh in an instant, he guessed Gu Rong's intentions, and said in a deep voice, "Miss wants to ask about officialdom?" ”

"Just talk about it, sir."

He looked at the deposit of five thousand taels in his hand, this is just a deposit, take this money, you can go far away from the world, free and easy, he figured out the reason, hesitated for a moment, and slowly said, "I don't know what Miss wants to ask specifically?" ”

"It's all right, sir, but it's okay."

"If you talk about the salt capital, human geography, it can be big, the salt capital is the salt capital, the head of the two sides of the strait, the scenery is beautiful, rich and rich, every inch of land is gold......" The Taoist priest sighed for a long time.

Gu Rong smiled lightly, gently put the teacup, Chunfeng understood, cautiously closed the door, Gu Rong said, "Then let's talk bigger." ”

"As the head of the two sides of the strait, the salt capital dominates the two sides of the strait, but now the officials are scattered, and Liu Yong, the general manager of the capital, is involved in it, and he can't get out, but he is quite popular with the people, and he has a powerful handle in his hands.

Gu Rong was stunned, and her doubts appeared, "What does Mr. mean by this?" Isn't the person who participates in the excerpt the right family? ”

"Fei Ye, Fei Ye ......" The Taoist priest shook his head, and at this moment he was quite a bit of a Taoist backbone, he said, "Officials on both sides of the strait know that taxes and silver are decreasing, and who will make trouble for themselves." ”

Gu Rong didn't think of this, but at this moment, she was broken, and suddenly realized, yes, officials on both sides of the strait know that the tax and silver are a dead knot, and who will lift a stone to shoot themselves in the foot.

"Therefore, the person who participates in the excerpt is the one who wants to benefit from this subordination, and our saint is the saint."

"But the power of the new emperor is not stable, and if you want to kick the iron plate on both sides of the strait, I am afraid that the support of Xie Shizi is indispensable."

In the final analysis, the emperor directed and acted in a play, which was to poke this hornet's nest on both sides of the strait.

The Taoist priest added, "The cross-strait issue has been backlogged for a long time, and I remember that in the first 12 years, there were constant wars, and the old emperor also ordered a thorough investigation of the two sides of the strait, and the situation at that time was extremely tragic. Eleven yamen, Yanjiatang, Qiushui Mansion, all forces appeared, the two sides of the strait were turned upside down, and later found out that the incumbent salt capital always embezzled huge taxes and silver, and was ordered to be copied and beheaded, but the tax and silver paid in the second year still did not change, it was really ridiculous, and some details really could not withstand scrutiny. He said to himself, not noticing Gu Rong's sudden change in face, "Later, the imperial court was also powerless about this, and gradually, it turned a blind eye." ”

"The young lady's clothes are either rich or expensive, and her gestures are full of everyone's beautiful self-cultivation, and she thinks she is an official person."

Gu Rong replied, "Sir, you really have good eyesight. ”

"Some time ago, there was an accident in the merchant ship of Yanjiatang, several people in different places, the hall master was poisoned to death, the whole Yan family hall was in a mess, fighting for power, a plate of scattered sand, the deputy hall master Yan Cheng in the hall was wanted by the government, some people said that they saw him kill the hall master, which is true and false, it is difficult to distinguish, but Yan Jiatang is completely declining, and now this realm, it is the Qiushui family who has the final say, but some time ago, the Qiushui family lost its vitality because of the Yan family's internal beating, and the news is afraid that it has reached the Holy Ear, which is why it is now like this, When Wang Yan went to Yandu for the first time, he should have found out something, the two sides of the strait were in a hurry, and this Lord Liu might end up like Gu Changying in the end. ”

Seeing that Gu Rong was silent for a long time, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, and said, "Miss? ”

Gu Rong's heart was heavy, and she squeezed out a smile and said, "Mr. continue." ”

The Taoist priest said, "I'm just a fortune teller, Miss is from the imperial capital, these gossips of mine, Miss will listen to them as a story." ”

"How did Sir know that I was from the imperial capital?"

The Taoist priest smiled, "Miss is smart, isn't it boring to ask this, the dress on the girl's body is Yunjin fabric, the most expensive material, produced in Feng Yang, Feng Yang produces hundreds of horses a year, all sent into the palace, although it is a thing in the palace, it is inevitable that there are businessmen and rich people who buy it with a lot of money, but the girl ring next to the young lady, the clothes are not bad, I talked to the young lady, she was at the door from beginning to end, if there was no matter, never bother, this kind of cleverness, is not a businessman's family can be trained, the young lady must be from the imperial capital. ”

Gu Rong laughed, "Sir is really smart. ”

The rest of Gu Rong had roughly guessed seven or eight points, she finally got up and handed him all the remaining silver tickets in her hand, the Taoist priest hurriedly took it, Gu Rong smiled and said, "I'm sorry for you today, this is the remaining five thousand taels, another day, I will come to visit." ”

The Taoist priest said in fear, "Miss has tormented the small one, but there are orders, if you can use the small ones, just give orders." ”

Master said that there is no impermeable news in the world, this world of rivers and lakes, there are many capable people, strange people, red faces, restaurants and drunk streets, and the news comes faster and more accurately.

Xiaocui sent people downstairs, and when she turned back to the room, she saw someone sneaking at the door, she didn't make a sound, entered the room and closed the door, and said busily, "Miss, it seems that someone is staring at us." ”

Gu Rong didn't frown, and said, "It's normal for someone to stare at it, the salt is so messy, a few of us are outsiders at a glance, so conspicuous, it's strange not to be targeted when we enter the city." ”

Xiao Cui asked again, "Who could it be?" ”

Who could it be?

Gu Rong and Chunfeng glanced at each other, and there was a feeling that everything was unspoken, Xiao Cui saw that the two of them were playing dumb riddles, where was he willing to give up, and said, "Miss, do you know who it is?" ”

Gu Rong said, "I don't know, but soon, I'll know." ”

Chunfeng couldn't see Xiao Cuizhang's confused appearance, held back a smile, and went out.

"Ah......" Xiao Cui suddenly woke up.

Gu Rong rubbed her head and sighed, "Xiaocui, isn't it stupid to settle accounts, hey......"

Tsui, "......"

Miss has been saying that she is stupid more and more recently, but she really ...... She looked tangled and depressed.

After about half a cup of tea, she heard Gu Rong call her, "Xiaocui." ”

Xiao Cui turned around and replied, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

Gu Rong said, "Later, you go to the eldest brother, and I will ...... your young lady."

Before she finished speaking, Xiao Cui nodded understandingly, and said, "I naturally listen to Miss, Miss's medicine is almost drunk, I'll clean it up in a while and go find the master." ”

Chunfeng hadn't come back yet, Xiaocui had already gone to the post station, Gu Rong went out of the room alone and asked for some food on the first floor, only to see the sun set in the west, and it was another night.

With the eldest brother out of the horse, she was not worried about Liu Yong's safety, and sure enough, after a while, Qiuyi came back, saw her, and said, "Miss, people are out." ”

Gu Rong said, "Let's eat first, you can keep an eye later, if there is a problem, be sure to keep him, I have something to ask him." ”

Qiuyi said, "Yes." "I didn't care about the etiquette of the master and servant, sitting opposite Gu Rong, the wind and clouds.

If you're not mistaken, someone is going to be unstoppable tonight.

During the meal, Chunfeng also came back, but he brought back the Taoist priest in the morning, the two of them were dressed in rags, Chunfeng still had some knife scratches on his body, but he did not hurt the flesh and skin, and obviously experienced a fight.

Gu Rong frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Chunfeng said, "The subordinates were ordered to follow him home, and after waiting for a long time, the man in black who came to the door unexpectedly did it directly, and seeing that he was about to return to the west with his life, his subordinates had to save him and bring him back." ”

It's only been half a day, how can you be in such a hurry? Isn't there something else she doesn't know about?

The Taoist priest was chased and killed, and he was frightened at the moment, and sat aside, as if he remembered something, and hurriedly said, "What should I do?" Why does he want to kill me? ”

He?

The three of them looked at each other and were about to ask questions, when they saw two big men with knives walking into the door of the inn, looking around, seeing Gu Rong and a few people, stepping forward, one of them said, "Miss, my son-in-law is invited." ”

Qiuyi asked, "Who is your son-in-law?" ”

The man replied, "Qiushui-kun." ”
