Oh? ”

Li Mo was shocked, and Aunt Li turned her head and shouted out, "Sister, don't you come in and see the three adults!" ”

A middle-aged woman then walked in and saluted the three of them: "The woman has seen three adults, and I heard that the adults asked for their names, so she came to pay a visit, I don't know what the three adults have to say?" ”

Li Moyi said: "You are Li Erniang?" Have you ever been to the Minister's Mansion in the backyard of the Governor's Residence? ”

After a pause, "There's a maid named Xiaojun in there, she's missing now, do you know what's going on........."

Li Erniang replied while thinking: "There is such a person, and she also bought some things from me......... By the way, she is a full-time flower grower in the mansion of the secretary, and I saw her a few days ago, and she is missing? ”

“……… This is not strange, that day she asked me a lot of strange words, inquiring about the things in Suzhou, as if someone told her that a few wealthy businessmen in Suzhou are recruiting maids, the conditions are quite good, she is a little tempted, and afraid of being deceived, so to ask me, I didn't pay attention, casually perfunctory words, could it be that she really went? It's too bad, most of them were deceived by some kind of kidnapper. ”

Li Mo glanced at Lin Wei's little guard, and Lin Wei's little guard shouted, "Have you ever heard Xiaojun say the names of Wang Sangu and Hui's mother?" ”

Li Erniang nodded again and again: "I've heard it, but it's not in the mansion of the secretary, everyone is almost the same person, and they will meet from time to time, take care of each other, and never tear each other down, so I didn't tell the truth to Xiaojun, Wang Sangu shouldn't do anything about abduction, but that Hui Ma......... I heard that she used to do it in Yanyulou in Suzhou, and then redeemed herself, relying on her understanding of some women's medical skills, she became a medical mother, treating people while saying some tempting words, as for whether she abducted people I don't know. ”

Li Mo took a closer look at Li Erniang's expression, she should know something, but she didn't say it because of concerns.

Li Mo thought for a moment: "Li Wulu, since I found Li Erniang, there is nothing for you here, I have to borrow this house for a while, you two go out first!" ”

………

………

After driving away Li Wulu and his wife, Li Moyi also let Lin Weixiao's guard and a guard stand outside the door, and Li Moyi and Li Erniang were left in the room, Li Moyi sneered and said: "Secret, Li Erniang, if you have anything else, just say it." ”

Li Erniang said respectfully: "My lord is really an understanding person, I will never dare to hide anything, that Hui's mother is indeed doing inferior things such as abducting and selling people, but her whereabouts are uncertain, and I don't know how to find her, but I remember that Xiaojun once asked me alone......... Be......... It's a young member in Suzhou, I am not familiar with the rich and noble people in Suzhou City, I really don't know what kind of business this young member does outside, but Xiao Jun only asked about this name, obviously it is a connector left by Hui's mother to Xiao Jun, the poor master only needs to follow this line to check, presumably there will be no mistake. ”

………

………

Li Moyi, Lin Weixiao's guard, and another guard, hurried back to the governor's residence, Guo Beitang and they hadn't come back yet, and the three of them came to the street again, and finally found Guo Beitang, and told Guo Beitang what they had gotten, Guo Beitang groaned for a while, and said categorically: "I'm going to see Lord Song!" ”

………

………

After returning to the official residence, Guo Beitang, who had received the errand, ordered Li Moyi, Lin Weixiao's guards, and another guard, and after a hurried lunch, Guo Beitang went to rent a boat, took Li Erniang with him, and then everyone got on the boat together and rushed to Suzhou.

………

………

Seeing the familiar scenery along the way, Li Mo couldn't help but think of the young lady and the maid who passed by when he went to Suzhou last time.........

I still feel a little uncomfortable when I think about it.........

………

………

The five of them got off the boat at the wharf outside Suzhou at around 4 p.m., and then rushed to the Suzhou Mansion.

Li Moyi and the four of them were left to rest in the corridor outside the torture room, Guo Daitang asked the guards to pass on the news, planning to meet the Suzhou Grand Escort Hall Nian and the Suzhou Governor Da Ren respectively, but the big man was not in Suzhou, and the Da Tang Nian summoned him.

Lord Nian is in charge of a Suzhou Mansion criminal name, and is the top boss of Guo Beitang's top boss, Guo Beitang stepped forward cautiously, Lord Nian glanced at him, and said lightly: "Guo Beitang, your town has been quite restless recently.........

Guo Beitang sweated slightly, and he hurriedly replied: "Yes, there have been several murders in Anqiu recently, but fortunately, they have been solved in time, please find out." ”

Lord Nian snorted and flipped through the file on the table: "The past cases in your town have always been delayed for a long time and cannot be solved, but these recent murder cases can be solved quickly, why is this?" ”

Guo Beitang wiped a cold sweat and replied: "This is because Lord Song, the mayor of our town, has always handed over the criminal case to the chief official, and not long ago, the chief official was slightly ill and took half a month off, and the responsibility for solving the case fell on the lower errand, and the lower errand was fortunate not to disgrace his life.........

"Nonsense!!"

The young man snorted coldly: "I don't know how much ability you have?" I heard that you recruited a little guard who is very good at solving cases, and you are still making trouble with the priest for this, but is this really the case? ”

Guo Beitang replied with a smile: "Yes, I can't hide anything from my lord, it's true, the priest is resentful because of jealousy, and he is embarrassed everywhere, and please be enlightened!" ”

Lord Nian snorted and said, "When you come to me, you still have to play tricks, I don't care what you plan, I want to borrow this person, you can take him with you, right?" Go and call him in. ”

Guo Beitang muttered in his heart, but he had to go out and bring Li Mo in, Li Mo stepped forward to see the Nian, and then stood beside Guo Beitang, he did not have the habit of seeing the upper difference and half a shorter, his head was not lowered and his back was not bowed, he stood as straight as a straight log, his eyes were opposite to the Nian and completely normal, seeing that the Nian only looked at himself and did not speak, he smiled and reminded: "My lord........."

The young man coughed lightly, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Yes, your name is Li Moyi, right?" ”

“……… I heard that you had a very unpleasant quarrel with the priest in Anqiu Town, do you know that the priest is a spy in the Imperial Hidden Department? It's not good that you've offended him! ”

"Please make it clear!!" Li Mo arched his hand and said respectfully.

Nian smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, as long as you help me do something, I can keep you fine!" ”

Li Mo said in a deep voice: "My lord, please speak, I am determined to go all out." ”

Lord Nian glanced at Guo Beitang: "Guo Beitang knows a little about this matter, and last month he transferred a few guards from Guizhen for that incident, so there was a vacancy, and you became a guard.........

Li Moyi didn't talk, and Guo Beitang said at this time: "My lord, how many of them are okay now?" ”

Lord Nian frowned and said: "It's not good, there are not a few people over there, if it weren't for the recent peace in Suzhou, I would have to go over to the town in person, fortunately, the brothers would have stopped at most being injured, and no one had been killed, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to suppress it." ”

Li Mo couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, what kind of case was it, several people died one after another, could it be some kind of bizarre serial murderer?

Even the guards were injured, so it can be seen that they had contact with the murderer, but why did they still fail to catch the murderer?

Guo Beitang exclaimed, Nian looked at him, then at Li Moyi, and finally decided: "How many of you came?" Later, take a boat to Hequan Town immediately, and when you see the huge people in the big hall, you will say that I asked you to help solve the case, especially Li Moyi, if you find anything, tell the huge people directly, he will support you, this case has been pressed for too long, and it can't be delayed!! ”

"Yes, lowly command!!" Guo Beitang replied happily.

Li Moyi said: "My lord, I came to Suzhou with Guo Beitang because of the abduction of a young girl, please allow me to solve this case first, find the missing person and then go to Hequan Town." ”

"I'll send someone to investigate that case, you don't have to worry about it." Nian said.

Li Moyi still insisted: "My lord, since this case is in my hands, I have to finish it, otherwise I will make a mistake in my heart, please forgive me." ”

Guo Beitang was so anxious that he gave Li Mo a confused look, but Li Moyi looked at Lord Nian without fear, Lord Nian frowned, and finally changed his mind and said: "Okay, I'll give you half a day, and I'll get on the boat and go to Hequan Town as soon as I'm done, let's go." ”

The two said goodbye, Guo Beitang kept complaining about Li Moyi, but Li Moyi smiled silently, the four of them got the order of the governor and could arrest people above the boundary of Suzhou, Guo Beitang went to the Suzhou Governor's Mansion to find eight guards who knew each other Qingyuan's foreign family, and those Suzhou guards actually laughed - that was also a master who often came and went to the official residence, and the eight Suzhou guards immediately led the way to the Qingyuan's house.

………

………

There are three holes in the cunning rabbit, and the house outside the youth is designed with a front door and two back doors, respectively, after blocking them, Guo Baitang kicked open the main door with their big feet, and locked it when they saw people, and for a time made the house chickens and dogs jump.

The young man came out in fright and asked, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" Poor master, hasn't this month's case silver already been given? ”

Guo Baitang couldn't help but shout: "Your business is revealed, take it for me!" ”

Lin Wei's little guard and a guard pounced on him like a tiger descending the mountain, pressed the young man who was about twenty years old and had a crooked face to the ground, and cuffed it with two clicks.

Hearing the word big white, the original blue and black skin of the young man suddenly turned pale, he looked around in a panic, and shouted: "Bad master, bad master, what happened to me again.........

"Shut up, do you want to inform your accomplices?" Guo Beitang slapped him, and the young people didn't dare to say anything.

There are two courtyards in this Qingfu, which don't look big, but a few guards have found dozens of people in the blink of an eye, including only a few men, about a dozen middle-aged women, but mostly teenage women and a few little girls.

Li Erniang made some modifications, she also covered her face with a blue scarf, hid behind the guards, and just opened her eyes to look at the girls who were the same age as Xiao Jun, and looked all over but still couldn't find Xiao Jun.

After the introduction of the Suzhou guards, Li Mo learned that this house was the stable in Taoism, and the Qingda cha was originally a ruffian, and he didn't know who he looked at, so he gave him two silver to run a house, and the Qing Dacha became a 'horse stable', specializing in this house to 'Pei Xiaoju'.

'Pei Xiaoju', that is, the girls who are bought or deceived from all over the world are invited to professionals to train them into women who can sing and dance well or have a certain specialty, and then sell them at a price and sell them to the door of rich families as concubines, or be selected to be trained as red card girls.

………

………

The guards divided the people in this house into three pieces and guarded them separately, and the men who looked like thugs were locked up in a small black room, Guo Tongtang personally interrogated, and after a while, the screams of the Qing Da outside sounded, usually this small black room is specially used to punish the disobedient 'foal', and now the head of the horse stable finally tasted it.

The dozen or so women were also sent to the next room of the small black house, but each of them had a dark cloth bag on their heads, and their hands were locked behind their backs, so they could not see or speak, and they could not help but be frightened when they heard the screams next door.

Those girls were also divided into two groups and placed separately, those older girls were well-dressed and generous, but they were not panicked when they suddenly changed, they had obviously been cultivated, or they were disappointed in the mission, or they longed for the glory and wealth after being concubines in the future, and no one shouted that they were abducted.

Those who are younger are not so calm, they came here in ignorance, learning all kinds of skills, and have not yet tasted the cruelty and hardships of life, Li Mo suddenly consciously placed them separately from the older girls because these girls may still have hope for a turn in the future.

After everyone was detained and controlled separately, in a side room a little farther away, Li Mo sat on the chair with a smile, looked at a middle-aged woman in front of him who was as weak as mud, and said lightly: "Mother Hui, where did you hide Xiaojun?" ”

Hui's mother was lying on the ground with a pale face, when she was dragged here, and after the cloth bag on her head was removed, she knew that something was wrong, that Xiao Jun must have left some clues, otherwise how could the chamen chase after her so quickly?

"Hui's mother, you don't have to think that someone will come to save you if you delay time," Li Moyi sneered and said: "This case was personally inquired into by the Lord Changnian of Suzhou Prefecture, he only gave us half a day, and we can do anything in order to solve the case!" Hurry up and hand over Xiaojun, otherwise we can't find anyone and have to treat her as if she is gone, and you are the murderer, take it back to the official residence to be tortured and serve, at that time, I am not afraid that you will not confess and draw a prisoner!! ”

Hearing the first sentence, Hui's mother's face changed miserably again, Li Moyi's words broke the last line of defense in her heart, and she sighed: "I admit it, let me go, I will take you to find out all the girls who have been deceived, I know a lot of things, please tell the master of the mansion, as long as I can save my life, I will tell you everything I know." ”

Li Mo drank and said, "Okay, I promise to tell the governor and open her hands and .........feet."

………

………

Under the leadership of Hui Ma, the guards quickly found several secret rooms in the Qing family, some of which were even hidden underground, and the entrance was extremely secret, if it wasn't for someone to lead, Li Moyi and their double manpower might not be able to find it within three or five days.

There are more than 20 girls trapped in the secret room, all of them are yellow and thin, and each of them has more or less small injuries, Xiao Jun is among them, a girl who is in Jiahua, only a few days of hard work, has been destroyed to the point of malaise, but fortunately in order to sell a good price of silver, Xiao Jun has not been hurt more.

………

………

Li Moyi questioned Xiaojun alone, she was wronged that day, and came to Suzhou sadly and disappointed, inquiring all the way into Qingfu, and when she understood that this was not a good place, it was too late.

She was imprisoned in a small black house because of disobedience, and Hui's mother also participated in the 'persuasion', and threatened to sell her to a distant place, and then pick out part of the tendons of her hands and feet, and then cut off half of her tongue, so that she could walk but not run, and she could eat, but she was a mute, and she was so desperate that she couldn't say anything about it.

………

"Miss Jun, do you think it's time to go home now?"

Li Moyi's words made Xiao Jun raise her head in confusion, only to see Li Mo with a slight smile on his face

Meaning, that smile is weird.........

………

………

The guards sealed the green house, locked up a group of prisoners with ropes, and then led a large and small group of prisoners back to the Suzhou Mansion Mansion.

On the way back to the Suzhou Governor's Residence, almost all of the people in Suzhou Prefecture were alarmed.

Some people clapped their hands and some people disagreed, the guards of Suzhou Mansion showed off their martial arts and were not angry, waving the water and fire sticks in their hands, driving the prisoners like cattle and sheep, and the onlookers were very unhappy that both the prisoners and the rescued girls covered their heads and faces with cloth bags or dark cloth pads and the like, so that people could not see their appearance, and they did not know who was who, and there was a lot of talk after dinner.

This group of people passed through Suzhou Street in a majestic manner.

On the second floor of a steamed bun shop with a sign of Hexi Pavilion, a young scholar with a face like a crown of jade is sitting by the window, and a little scholar with a fat body and round face is serving on the side.

Seeing this group of people coming, the handsome scholar and the little scholar were curious to look down, and suddenly saw Li Moyi walking at the end of the line.

The fat little scholar pointed at him in surprise and said, "Childe, look, is that guard a little familiar?" ”

The handsome scholar opened the folding fan with a swipe, fanned it in front of him, and replied, "You don't remember?" We scolded him on the boat that day. ”

"Ah, it's him, the guy with a bull's head and a horse's mouth, giggles, I didn't expect him to be a guard!! Sure enough, he is a villain who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to climb the text! The fat little girl pretending to be a scholar said unabashedly.

Her voice was not pretended, it was clear and crisp and loud, as if she was afraid that Li Mo would not hear it, and sure enough, when the young lady pretending to be a scribe turned her head and scolded the fat maid, Li Mo raised his head and looked up.

Li Mo looked up, and just saw the fat round-faced maid sticking out her tongue at him and making a strange face, the strange face was made, after all, it was a distorted face, Li Moyi had only seen the side of this fat face before, and he didn't recognize it for a while, he smiled at her a little strangely when he saw this, nodded, and then withdrew his gaze.

At that moment, the young lady upstairs turned her head and looked down, covering half of her face with a folding fan in one hand, but the bright eyes were secretly cast, but Li Mo recognized her at once, and the gaze that had just been withdrawn jumped suddenly, and she looked up in surprise and joy.

At a glance, he saw that the person on the window on the second floor of Hexi Pavilion had disappeared, and there was no trace, Li Mo immediately turned around, and he suspected that he was dazzled, and wanted to go upstairs to explore, but he finally held back.

"Brother Li, what are you looking at? Let's go!! Lin Wei's little guard turned around in front and shouted, Li Mo gritted his teeth one by one, turned his head and walked quickly.

"Miss, why are we avoiding him?" The fat little girl followed behind the young lady and pouted.

The young lady was holding the maid's hand, climbed over the two high walls, and hid in a mansion, and then said: "He sent us to be thieves, is it difficult to come forward and introduce himself if he doesn't hide?" ”

"Hehe......... the little maid smiled and said: "That's right, but the young lady calls herself a thief, but it's too much of a self-inflicted one, be careful that the adults in the family are not happy to hear it, and change places ten levels higher than him.........." ”

"You, you just talk a lot, be careful that trouble comes out of your mouth........." The young lady straightened her somewhat messy clothes after moving quickly and climbing over the wall: "Shut up, someone is coming." ”

The maid stuck out her tongue and finally fell silent.

………

………

Li Moyi returned to the governor's mansion in Suzhou with some reluctance along the way, and handed over a cadre of people captured by Qingfu to the messenger in the official residence, and then Li Moyi was passed on by the mayor of Suzhou Mansion.

………

………

After seeing Li Moyi, the young man split his head and said: "I heard that you went to arrest people, you handled it in a good way, it seems that you have already made a bamboo in your chest, with your talent, it is a pity to continue to stay in the small Anqiu Town Governor's Mansion, if you go to Hequan Town this time to successfully solve the case, I will transfer you up when you come back, and be the deputy of the huge escort, what do you think?" ”

Li Mo heard this kind of great joy from heaven one by one, and hurriedly clenched his fists and bowed deeply: "Thank you Lord Nian for promoting ........."

Lord Nian glanced at him in a slightly surprised light, nodded and said, "If there is nothing to do, let's go on the road with Guo Beitang immediately." ”

Li Moyi hesitated for a moment, and then said, "My lord, if I am promoted to Suzhou, Guo will ......... with the hall."

A hint of approval flashed in the eyes of the young man: "I know better than you how old Guo is capable, I will go to Hequan Town to solve the case, if he can return triumphantly, I will not erase his credit, I will arrange it properly, you can rest assured." ”

Li Moyi bowed down again and said, "Adults have forgiven me for many years......... And also......... I also have a reluctant request, please forgive me, I heard that the person who is currently in charge of solving the case is a huge person in the hall, and I am afraid that he will .........."

Nian said categorically: "Don't worry about this, I have already ordered someone to take the first step to pass the word to Lao Pang, he is not good at solving the case, he will cooperate with your actions after you go, this case is imminent and can not be delayed any longer, you can act when necessary, everything is important to solve the case!" And if you have nothing to do on weekdays, you can learn more etiquette from Guo Xiangtang, go ahead........."

………

………

As soon as Li Mo came out with a reassuring pill, he was still a little embarrassed in his heart, he really didn't understand the etiquette of the poor side in this world, but fortunately, everyone knew that he was just an ordinary little scoundrel, and it was normal not to understand, maybe he could have a good understanding in the future.

As soon as Li Mo and Guo Beitang met, they immediately took a messenger ship, a salt transport ship, and traveled along an east-west salt transport river to Hequan Town.

Just as he was on the boat, a carriage quickly left the Suzhou Governor's Mansion and sent three people who were tightly wrapped all over their bodies directly to the errand ship heading south along the canal.........

………

………

More than 100 miles of canal road, go smoothly, but it was not until midnight that they arrived at Sanhe Village under the rule of Hequan Town.

Guo Companion Tang and they were all flattered, Li Moyi also showed a little gratitude, only to see that the huge Companion Hall was full of red silk and exhausted, it was definitely not just tonight, it can be seen that this case has exhausted him, even if there is no order from the top, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will be overjoyed and invite Li Moyi back like a guest.

Deputy Wang and three other guards who were transferred from Anqiu Town also came to greet them, and two of the four were wrapped in bandages, which showed that this case was extraordinary.

Seeing that Li Moyi was so young, the huge man couldn't help but be a little disappointed and suspicious, but he still didn't show it patiently, and took Li Moyi and his party back to the town's official residence and deployment place.

………

………

The lowest level of land in the world is the village level, and then there is no governor and the governor's official residence, which are routinely organized, and the village is a hundred households as a mile, and generally the local landlord or squire serves as a village official, responsible for completing rent collection and managing the place for the boss, in the place where there are many people living and not enough to become a village, the most powerful village official is actually the first leader in the village, and the official residence where the huge man led Li Moyi and them back is actually the mansion under the name of Wang Shuigen, the largest squire in Sanhe Village, which is equivalent to a small residence of a village official.

………

………

The huge man greeted them, and gave a brief explanation of the case first.

It is said that the Wang family originally did business in the northern boundary, and only moved to live in Sanhe Village in Hequan Town more than ten years ago, and the family is a businessman, old and young, and the family business is getting bigger and bigger, and the population is increasing, and it is already the largest household in Sanhe Village.

The Wang family is kind to others, never quarrel with others, every winter or disaster year, the Wang family will arrange porridge shed relief called Huazi and refugees, donate materials and silver is even more generous and never fall behind, everyone praises that the Wang family is simply a good person in the tenth world!!

But one day last month, Wang Zicong, the eldest son of Wang Shuigen, was suddenly found dead at home.

Not only shocked the entire Sanhe Village, but the whole town was shaken, and the mayor of Hequan Town, Long Dashan, personally sat in to solve the case, but he didn't expect that this murder case had not been solved, Wang Shuigen's third son, Wang Zishan, was found dead on the way back to Sanhe Village.

Next, Wang Shuigen's nephew, second daughter-in-law, little daughter and two family members died one after another in the Wang family, which had been closely protected, and when the head of the mayor of Hequan Town was as big as a fight, suddenly someone submitted a letter to the governor's mansion in Hequan Town late at night, reporting the tax evasion and tax evasion of the Wang family in Sanhe Village and the collusion and smuggling of bandits......... So he urgently reported and handed over the burden to the governor of Suzhou.

Suzhou Prefecture immediately mobilized capable people to settle in Sanhe Village, and no traces of smuggling have been found, but the murder has happened again one after another, as if it has become a shocking case, for their own black yarn hat, Suzhou and the various departments involved in the case have tried their best to cover up the matter, and secretly stepped up to solve the case, more than a month has passed, but there has been no progress in the case, and it is almost impossible to hide it now, and even Li Moyi, a newcomer with no qualifications, has been treated as a thousand miles to come and slip away.
