I got home and slept for just over two hours before the rooster crowed.

Hua Qiao hurriedly got up, she wanted to show the small black particles she picked up under Miss Guo's bed yesterday to Daddy.

Daddy has already gotten up and is helping Auntie grind glutinous rice flour in the kitchen, pushing the grinder to be strong, and Daddy comes over to help every time. Hua Qiao's favorite thing is to watch the two of them huddle in the kitchen, busy with their own work, occasionally catching up with a couple of sentences, and the hot steam is next to them.

She thinks that she only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals, which is probably the case.

Hua Qiao went in and turned around with a smile, hugged A-Niang from behind and pulled Daddy out, she mysteriously took out a plain towel and opened it, handed it to Daddy, and asked: "Daddy, look at what this is?" ”

Hua Youcai took it, sniffed it in his nose, didn't speak, took the plain towel and walked to the small tool room, and asked as he walked, "Where did you find it?" ”

Hua Qiao didn't say anything, but only coquettishly said: "Tell me what this is first......

Hua Youcai took out a small piece of glass, put the black particles on it, and then put the glass piece on a small iron shelf on the table, and burned it under the glass with an oil lamp, and Hua Qiao saw that the black particles began to turn red.

"It's mercury sulfide. If the sulfur powder is covered with mercury, the mercury will not easily volatilize into toxic gas, but it will form black mercury sulfide. We heat it up a little bit and it turns red...... It is similar to cinnabar used to refine mercury. Hua Youcai wondered: "Have you found the scene of the crime?" ”

"Oops! Dad! You see what that is? Hua Qiao pointed to the roof and exclaimed.

Hua Youcai hurriedly raised his head and looked at the roof, but when he looked at it, there was nothing, he immediately realized that he had been fooled, and looked at the gate of the courtyard fiercely, sure enough, his big foolish daughter had already run to the door, and she was still shouting:

"Daddy, I'll go to the private school to see if Hua Rong is lazy!"

Hua Qiao didn't deceive people, she really went to a private school, but what she was looking for was not Hua Rong, but Hu Yanjin.

When he returned to the private school last night, Hu Yanjin told Mr. Wu about his coincidental encounter with the emperor's grandson, and Mr. Wu frowned and said, "It's better to stay away from him, if your identity is exposed, you can only cut off your head." Although the husband is not afraid of death, how can he die lightly if the great cause is not accomplished? ”

Hu Yanjin said with a smile: "My father's surname is Wu, and it was from me that he reverted to the surname of his ancestor Huyan, how can it be easily exposed?" If I could stay with the emperor's grandson, wouldn't it be easier to help us succeed? ”

The ancestor Hu Yanzhuo settled in Haiyan when he was old, and in order to avoid persecution by traitors, he changed the surname of his descendants to "I", so after Hu Yanzhuo, he rarely heard the name of Hu Yanzhuo's descendants.

Later, his father accompanied him to flee, and in order to get out of the city in the crowd, his father asked the nurse to hold Jin'er in swaddling clothes and pretend to be a family of three by his side.

Fortunately, when Jin'er was brought out, my general's wife, concubine, mother, and more than a dozen members of the family all died under the shadow of the sword and sword.

In order to ensure the safety of his son, General Wu restored his son's ancestral surname, and renamed his surname Huyan, called "Huyan Jin".

Mr. Wu paced back and forth a few steps, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's okay, you should be cautious yourself, and don't show your clues." From now on, you will be an orphan raised in my countryside and my disciple. What you have in hand will be done by someone else, so I will write to inform the Dome Mountain. ”

This morning, Mr. Wu's letter had been sent, and Hu Yanjin was holding a carving knife and carving a piece of wood.

"Brother Huyan! The scene of the crime is there! Although Hua Qiao can't run, her brisk walk is similar to trotting, and she is already sweating when she arrives at the private school.

Hu Yanjin didn't urge her, and gave her a cup of tea.

"The little black particles we found yesterday, called mercury sulfide, are a combination of sulfur and mercury. When heated, it turns back. Why does Miss Guo have this thing in her room? There must have been mercury sprinkled on the ground! ”

"Since he committed murder in the Guo Mansion, Guo Chengshilang will definitely not be able to escape the involvement, and besides, there will be witnesses from all over the Guo Mansion. You go home first, and I'll go to the county government to inform the imperial grandson and see how to proceed next. ”

Since he wanted to find a way to stay with the imperial grandson, Hu Yanjin naturally spared no effort.

Hua Qiao returned home, and saw Daddy sitting in the yard angrily, so she turned her face over and flattered: "Daddy, Hua Rong...... You don't have to be lazy in the private school, don't worry. ”

"It's you who I'm not worried about!"

"I'm fine, it's just...... Didn't eat breakfast and was a little hungry...... Daddy, I'll go see if my mother's Youth League is still there. A-Niang...... A-Niang ......"

Watching her daughter run away from the kitchen, Hua Youcai shook her head, and after a few more years, she will marry a chicken and a dog!

After eating the Qingtuan, Hua Qiao saw that she couldn't hide, and was about to organize the language and tell Daddy about last night's events, when she heard someone outside the courtyard gate shouting: "Hua Qiaozuo!" Flowers! ”

Hua Youcai didn't care about asking Hua Qiao again, and hurriedly ran to open the courtyard door, he heard it, it was Liao Shushu calling him.

"Urgent? Isn't it not a day to be fine? Hua Youcai asked as he opened the door. At this time, when the Liao scribe came, there was a murder case nine times out of ten, alas, it was really not peaceful these years.

"The imperial grandson suddenly said that he would personally try the case of the nameless corpse in the barren mountain the day before yesterday...... Hi, didn't you say the case was hanging? How did the imperial grandson know? Could it be that the bitter master is looking for him? The whole county government is jumping ...... chickens and dogs," Liao Shucai was still nagging, Hua Youcai closed the door with his backhand, pushed Liao Shushu and said, "Let's go." ”

"Let's go? ...... Oh, and call your big girl, buckwheat. Liao Shuren hurriedly said. I almost forgot, don't make another trip.

Hua Youcai's head was bigger, and he asked suspiciously, "What are you calling her for?" She is not from the yamen, she is all following to see the excitement. She knows, I know, just ask me. ”

"Xu yes...... Your eldest girl is the one who reported the discovery of the body...... The county magistrate said that he had to call it, and I don't know why. After Liao Shushu finished speaking, he pulled his neck and shouted in: "Flower buckwheat!" ”

"Don't shout, don't shout! Is the big girl's name called you that? Okay, you wait, I'll go in and call her. Hua Youcai slapped a board on the back of Liao's head, turned around and entered the courtyard. Again, he thought, he might as well grab the toolbox, maybe this will be used.

"The case of the male corpse I found is going to be retried?" Hua Qiao asked happily, it seems that she has a good vision, and the efficiency of the emperor's grandson is really high! She had forgotten that it was the emperor's grandson who threatened to snore Yanjin Ban last night to force a confession from the case.

"Does it have anything to do with you?" Hua Youcai took two steps and stopped and asked. He seriously suspected that his daughter was hiding something from him.

Hua Qiao winked and smiled:

"Maybe...... Anyway, my father taught me to be honest! ”
