At dawn the next day, Liu Jiaojiao got up.

To be precise, she was worried all night, and she basically didn't sleep much.

Although the system detected that Liu Jun's life was not in danger, as long as she couldn't find anyone, her heart panicked, in this case, how could she sleep?

Niu Haoran also got up early, but he was used to getting up early because of his biological clock.

For this benefactor who taught his own little son who is the same as the demon king of the mixed world, the Niu family can be said to be very grateful, specially prepared a large table of sumptuous breakfast, the big cow will work to earn money, the calf has sent silver back every month, and now the Niu family has successfully entered the ranks of rich families in the village, not bad money.

Liu Jiaojiao of the entire Niu family also knows Niu Haoran alone, she is not a person who likes to deal with strangers, and she has something in her heart, so her attitude is inevitably a little perfunctory.

Fortunately, the Niu family is the kind of person who doesn't care about it, otherwise they might have to cause trouble again.

After some breakfast that she couldn't swallow, Liu Jiaojiao got up and said goodbye, she was going to visit the village to see if there were any strangers in the village to inquire about the Liu family.

Niu Haoran naturally followed her, but he was the little overlord of the village back then, and no one was more familiar with the situation in the village than him.

After asking several villagers in a row, they finally got a clue.

A few days ago, outsiders did come to the village, but they only wandered around the entrance of the village and did not enter the village, so most people did not know about it.

The clue was given to a seven or eight-year-old boy in the village who followed his grandfather out to herd cattle every morning, so he happened to see someone asking him about the Liu family, so he wrote it down.

"Do you remember what they asked?" Liu Jiaojiao took out a small silver ingot from her purse and handed it to the boy, and asked with a smile.

Although the boy is not very old, he also knows Liu Jiaojiao's name, and he knows that she is very good at making money, but he is still shocked to see her so generous.

He hurriedly shook his head and returned the silver ingot, and replied, "You don't need to give the silver, Sister Jiaojiao, I will tell you what you want to know." The two people were very well dressed, and they looked like people from a big place, and they asked their grandfather where Brother Liu Jun was from, and his grandfather said that he was from other places, and she was the only one left in the family when she was in trouble. They asked Brother Liu Jun about his age and appearance, and my grandfather also said. ”

As he spoke, he bit his lip a little embarrassedly and whispered: "Grandpa later told me that he shouldn't talk nonsense to outsiders, but the family was too poor, and those people gave me silver, and he wanted to send me to a private school to study, so he ......."

Liu Jiaojiao didn't mean to blame his grandfather, if someone had a trick, it would be impossible to prevent it, not to mention that others didn't know the inside story and had no obligation to keep the Liu family secret.

Seeing the little boy's guilty and panicked appearance, Liu Jiaojiao bent down and touched his head and asked, "Do you miss studying very much?" ”

"Well, you can earn a lot of silver when you study, just like Brother Maverick." As he spoke, he looked at Niu Haoran, his eyes full of envy.

Niu Haoran couldn't help but smile and shook his head, he didn't expect that he would have to become a role model for others one day.

Liu Jiaojiao said to the little boy: "Don't worry, you will definitely be able to study, as long as you study hard and be a good person, you will be more powerful than Brother Niu in the future." ”

"Really?" The little boy's eyes lit up instantly, as bright as the stars in the sky.

"Sister Jiaojiao won't lie to children."

"I believe Sister Jiaojiao, you are so powerful, you will not lie."

Liu Jiaojiao was stunned when she heard this, and she couldn't cry or laugh.

She just doesn't want to deceive children, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't deceive people, in the adult world, deceiving people is not necessarily to hurt others, not necessarily to be a bad thing, but to better protect themselves, this truth will be understood when the little boy grows up.

After seeing the little boy go home, Niu Haoran asked, "Little owner, do you mean that you are going to sponsor the child to study?" ”

"This kid is quite sensible, I have this idea, but if I only fund him, I may get him into trouble, and he is the only one in the family, he and his grandfather. In this way, when you go back, you go to Brother Liu Qiang, let him go back to the village, and let the village chief and grandfather find out all the children in the village who are too poor and have the heart to study, and then choose a few sensible ones, and I will send them to study with money. ”

Niu Haoran was overjoyed when he heard this, "The little owner is really a bodhisattva. ”

"You're thinking too much, I'm just training people for the future, just like I trained you in the first place."

Although Liu Jiaojiao's words were not good, she was very philistine and practical, but Niu Haoran felt that she was arrogant, and she didn't take it to heart at all, and felt more and more that she was with the right person.

With clues, no one could be found in the village, so Liu Jiaojiao took Niu Haoran and rode back to the town.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of Qingxin Fang, Lei Zhong and Lao Li Tou rushed out quickly, first looked around, and after making sure that there were only two of them, they asked in disappointment, "Didn't you find anyone?" ”

Liu Jiaojiao already knew that the matter would definitely not be hidden, and the two old men would definitely know, but they didn't expect them to come to Qingxinfang to guard, so they hurriedly dismounted, walked in front of the two, and comforted: "Grandpa, Master, let's go in and talk." ”

The two also knew that the door was not a good place to talk, so they nodded in unison, and then followed her into the store.

A few people naturally went to the independent box on the second floor, and Niu Haoran walked out smartly, guarding the door, not letting anyone approach.

Liu Jiaojiao helped the two old men sit down, and then first told Lei Zhong about Liu Jun's life experience, and then told the clues she got in the village.

Lei Zhong was taken aback when he heard this, what? Liu Jun is not a descendant of the Liu family? Does his mother still have a relationship with the eldest princess back then? Maybe his mother is the eldest princess?

This melon was a little scary, and he was terrified to eat it.

After all, Lao Li Tou had known for a long time, so he was much calmer, frowned and asked, "That kid didn't lie, right?" Did an outsider really ask about the Liu family? ”

Liu Jiaojiao nodded affirmatively: "That kid didn't lie, I can still see this confidently." So the question now is, does my brother's disappearance have anything to do with those who inquired about the Liu family? Who are they? Is it from the neighboring country's side or from above? She pointed to the sky, meaning the head of the palace.

Lei Zhong felt that his brain was completely insufficient.

He is just an ordinary doctor and businessman, although he has been to the capital and neighboring countries, but he is not qualified to contact the royal family on both sides, and he can still say a two, five or six in the shopping mall, but he really can't say anything about the royal family, and he doesn't dare to say anything.

The people of this era have a kind of heartfelt fear of imperial power, except for those pretentious scholars, who dares to discuss this.

Talking about the rights and wrongs of others is at most a quarrel or something, but if you discuss the rights and wrongs of the royal family, you will have to fall to the ground.

After all, Lao Li Tou had been in the palace, so his disgust for the royal family was greater than his fear, and he said to Liu Jiaojiao: "No matter who is on the other side, Jun Xiaozi's life experience must have been discovered by others, so he will disappear." But if it really came into the hands of these people, his life should not be in danger. The previous monarch of the neighboring country had no children under his knees, and now all the government was in the hands of his younger brother Regent, who was said to be suffering from a hidden illness and could not have children, so if Jun Boy was really the child of that monarch, he would be the heir to the certainty. If it is a member of the royal family of our dynasty, it should be to make up for the debt to the eldest princess back then, so as long as it is determined that he is the orphan of the eldest princess, a county king will not be able to escape. ”

Liu Jiaojiao answered: "Master, you have some truth in your analysis, but there is another possibility, that is, to extinguish your mouth!" ”

Lao Li's face changed greatly, he hadn't considered this possibility, but he didn't dare to say it at all, for fear that Liu Jiaojiao would care about it, but he didn't expect her to guess it and say it herself.

Lei Zhong was anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Girl, what does it mean to extinguish your mouth?" If Jun Boy is really the orphan of the eldest princess, both sides should value him, how can he be killed? ”

"Didn't Grandpa just say that? The neighboring country is ruled by the regent, even if he has a hidden disease and cannot have children, but a person has enjoyed the benefits of rights for so many years, how many are willing to give it back to others for nothing? He could have raised a side child to be a puppet and continue to be his regent. As for my dynasty, the death of the eldest princess was a stain on the royal family, why keep my brother? Keep reminding yourself how selfish and ruthless the emperor was back then? It's better to extinguish it, anyway, everyone thought that the eldest princess was dead back then, and no one knew about my brother's existence. ”

"Girl, hearing you say that, the royal family seems to be very dark." Lei Zhong was persuaded and let out a sigh of emotion.

Lao Li snorted, "Otherwise, how could I have ended up in the prison back then?" The royal family is also a glamorous and unattainable person on the surface, but in fact they are all villains who are accustomed to intrigue and trickery, I tell you, kind-hearted people will never live long in the palace! ”

Lei Zhong sighed, his face was full of worry, and said to Liu Jiaojiao: "What should I do then?" If Jun Boy really comes into their hands, then he will have to worry about his life! ”

Liu Jiaojiao comforted: "Grandpa, I just said that there is such a possibility, but it may not really happen, we have to think about the good side, and we have to think about the bad side, right?" I wish it was someone from a neighboring country, and I could find them by my cousin's hand, but if it was someone from Beijing, it would be difficult to find them. ”

The people who came out of the palace must have tokens in their hands, and they act on behalf of the palace, who dares to say more than one word to the officials below? Even if the Xie family is a member of the Shi clan, there is no way to resist the imperial power.

While the three of them were talking, Niu Haoran suddenly knocked on the door and said outside the door: "Little owner, Master Xie is here and says he wants to see you." ”

Liu Jiaojiao immediately understood that Xie Ping'an must have guessed something, so she came to her in such a hurry, and blamed herself for doing this too much yesterday, she shouldn't have gone to the yamen to wait for someone, such a strange move, how could Xie Ping'an, a fox, not be suspicious?

"Let him come right here." Since the royal family and neighboring countries are involved, this matter must not be hidden, so I can only tell him.

I just hope that I haven't seen the wrong person, this third cousin must be a reliable one.
