Chapter 179: Hang High

Because the heart is like an arrow, so the way back seems to be a lot shorter, originally they have planned to go to the oil shop as soon as they go back, but the boat has not yet docked, Chang Yue saw Huaixu waiting on the shore of the ferry from a distance.

Chang Yu waved his hand in surprise, but he didn't wait for a warm response, he just beckoned gently, looking weak.

Gu Chao turned his head and said to him.

"Don't be too happy, I don't think the situation is optimistic."

Chang Yu didn't believe it at first, but when he got off the boat and approached Huaixu, he heard him.

"You're done with both of you."

Gu Chao hurriedly asked.

"What's wrong? Is something wrong? ”

"The history of salt is here."

"What!"

The two men spoke in unison.

"Yes, he came ahead of schedule, and the news I learned last night, our son-in-law was looking for you all over the world, and then he went out with you in the leap month at the shopkeeper's place."

"So, now? What to do? How can we help? ”

Huai said speechlessly.

"At this time, what else can you help, but I was caught out by Gongzi yesterday and a spy is now fishing in Jiang Taigong, and the wisher has taken the bait."

"Spies! That! Old Li Tou! ”

Leap Moon suddenly screamed, he remembered what Jin Xi said yesterday.

"Oh? How do you know? It seems to be a person surnamed Li, I heard that it is an old fellow, and your father didn't expect it to be him. ”

"And now are we?"

"Wait a minute, now the people of the Li family, Master Song and the people in the oil shop are all waiting for Yan Shi in the post station, and when he gets up, he will officially start the inspection."

"So many people are waiting for him, and he doesn't come out? It's not just a salt patrol, and it's not a big official, how can you put such a shelf. ”

"People are temporarily elected, petty officials are petty officials, but the rights given are not small, people finally do a big thing, of course, they have to put up a good show, and he will not have a lot of money to take when he goes back."

As he spoke, he led them to the inn.

"Childe told me not to take you over, he has already arranged it alone, he will come over in the evening and personally ask Miss Gu Chao for clarification."

Gu Chao pointed at himself.

"Ask me? How can you just say that I am alone? I'm going with them. ”

Although they were only working together, when they heard that Ling Zhuo was coming to find him, Gu Chao inexplicably had a feeling of fear and weakness, this feeling was like she had caused trouble in the mountains, and she heard that her father was coming to find her, the feeling of waiting for the trial.

It shouldn't be, how could she be afraid of anyone, it's a big deal that after this matter has passed, it will be shot and scattered.

Thinking of this, Gu Chao puffed up his chest as if cheering himself up, and then walked in front naturally.

Walking to the fork in the road, Leap Moon had to go back, and she took out the letter from her sleeve pocket.

"What kind of Jinbao, I can't have any contact with him anymore, I'll show you this letter, I don't know if it's a marriage proposal or something else."

Gu Chao took it, put it in his sleeve pocket casually, and then asked.

"Didn't Huaixu say it, they are all receiving Yanshi now, let's not go over, where are you going now?"

"You're stupid, of course I'm going home, now my dad and my brother are definitely not here, it's finally just me, I want to go back to sleep and enjoy myself, I was really tired yesterday."

Now that they are out, Chang Yu can safely say that it is a leap month.

"Didn't you find it all yourself? Take us with you. ”

Chang Yu is half serious and half complaining.

Gu Chao pulled him away quickly, and said a simple goodbye to Leap Month.

Gu Chao turned her head and looked at Huai Xu, who walked in front without saying a word, she was taken by Chang Yu before she could brew a topic to talk about.

"Huaixu, why did you go to Kyoto for so long this time? Anything fun? ”

"What's the fun thing, of course it's important to go back, aren't you busy rushing back now?"

Gu Chao noticed that after Huaixu came back this time, he no longer called Ling Zhuo by his first name, but began to call him Gongzi, maybe their real relationship should be master and servant.

Gu Chao became more and more sure that Ling Zhuo's family was a senior official in Kyoto, looking at his style and his usual dress, he was definitely not an ordinary family.

"Can I ask you? You saw your son-in-law yesterday, was he angry? ”

Gu Chao asked tentatively.

Huaixu glanced at Gu Chao and nodded very seriously.

"Yes."

In fact, Huai Qian also wondered in his heart, this matter was taken over by Gu Chao and them, even if it had a great interest in them, but they were in control of the situation at that time, and there was no need for the prince to be angry at all.

But why was he so angry yesterday? This is not the attitude he usually should have, as soon as the matter is over this time, even if he doesn't catch any tricks from Princess Rongqu, it can make her angry for a while.

And in the matter of taking the salt village, even if they don't control the salt village by their own people, but Song Zhicheng is a person of temperament, he will not do deviant things, let alone go along with Princess Rongqu.

In this case, Princess Rongqu's arrogance in Qingcheng County will be hit, and because he has dragged it out there when he returns to Kyoto this time, they will have extra time to stay in Qingcheng County.

I am afraid that the matter of those missing girls will not be able to get rid of him, and they can continue to investigate.

"Do you think there's room for redemption? Actually, we didn't mean it, but there were some unexpected circumstances, which I'll explain later......"

Gu Chao said.

"You explain, but my son-in-law may not be willing to listen, you have been with him for so many days, you should know his temper."

In order not to scare her, Huaixu tried to tell her the prince and the situation as tactfully as possible.

"Alas, Huaixu, what is the identity of your son-in-law? You see that you call him Gongzi, which means that you are his subordinate, looking at his usual style, he is definitely not an ordinary person, why are you so mysterious? ”

Huaixu, who has always had a good relationship with Chang Yu, suddenly became serious at this time.

"Don't ask so much, just do your own thing, ask too much, it's not good for yourself."

In this way, it has always been the Qingzun Pavilion of the Xiwu family that has the most secrets, and it is often said to outsiders, but now when they hear such words, they are a little unaccustomed to it, but because of the silence of the three nostalgic people, they are more curious about their identity.

I wonder if things will go well today, but if they do, will they go straight back to Kyoto? If it doesn't go well, will they continue? Or just leave it to them and never care about it again?

After all, it was they who were irresponsible in the first place, and it was reasonable for Ling Zhuo to leave halfway.

Thinking of this, Gu Chao suddenly felt a little lost in her heart, although she was not sure whether she could make Ling Zhuo not angry, but when she thought of the days of such a joint investigation of the case, it was about to end, and her heart suddenly felt a little empty.

Maybe this is the fun of going down the mountain to investigate the case with his partner, Gu Chao also knows that he is a person who values love and righteousness, although there are many unpleasant and small frictions between them, but in general it is still very pleasant.

Also, what Ling Zhuo said that day, can it be taken seriously?

In fact, for so many days, Gu Chao has been thinking about this question vaguely.
