Gu Fanghua woke up in the morning and found that there were snowflakes, although the murderer of Xiao Yao's assassination yesterday had not been found, but it did not affect her mood of wanting to go out to play.

How can you go out to play, how can you miss Zhong Taojiao?

Soon at the dinner table, the two reached an agreement and were ready to go to the street today. Since they are going to the streets, of course, Zhong Zibin, Gu Shinian, and Yan Changxin also want to be together.

On the contrary, Yan Shaoxun and Xiao Yao tracked down the assassin together, so they did not go to the street together.

Mingzhu County was mainly on the streets, and the Fang clan did not dare to slack off, and sent the best carriage in the house. Xiao Yuanzi was not at ease, and personally inspected the carriage, so he served Gu Fanghua to get on the car.

Since it was a private visit to Weifu to go out to play, they didn't bring too many guards. However, the two secret guards around each person are both strong in martial arts.

When a group of people left the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, they had to cross two streets, which was the most lively Tieshikou in Shenzhou.

In the Hou Mansion, Xiao Yao had already gathered all the gatekeepers together.

"Think about it, in the last ten days, have there been large items coming in and out? Or horse-drawn carriages and soft sedan chairs entered the house without inspection? ”

The meaning of Xiao Yao's words made those disciples try their best to prove their innocence.

"Fourth Young Master, all of our people at the door have been recorded in and out, or the delivery of goods. As you can see, you can see that no bulky items have recently entered the house except for porcelain. ”

When Xiao Yao asked, Yan Shaoxun was looking through the recent goods entering the house, and there was indeed no suspicion.

Yan Shaoxun was really serious, and it took half an hour to turn over the records of the goods entering and exiting at each door in the past month.

"Xiao Yao, since we came, the expenses of your Hou Mansion have become more and more good!"

Xiao Yao frowned slightly, puzzled: "Isn't this how it should be?" Recently, there have been nearly two hundred more people, not counting the Imperial Forest Army in the Governor's Palace, so it will naturally cost more money. ”

Yan Shaoxun didn't explain, but said to those subordinates: "You guys should retreat first." ”

When they retreated, Yan Shaoxun said to Xiao Yao: "I think, I have a little eyebrows." However, I may have to ask the young lady to come and ask about the situation. ”

"It's okay, I'm just going to Qingzhang Temple, so let's go over."

Xiao Yao saw that Yan Shaoxun was confident, although he didn't know what hole cards he had, but he could just learn to learn. Speaking of his talent for solving cases, the fifth prince is the best of the best.

If Yan Shaoxun knew what Xiao Yao was thinking, he would definitely laugh badly.

What kind of fart is the talent for solving cases, it's obviously "Clearing Grievances" that I've watched a lot, okay? As the saying goes, if you are familiar with 300 Tang poems, you can't compose poems and you can chant, you haven't seen a pig run, and you haven't eaten pork.

In fact, Yan Shaoxun last night just felt that there was definitely something wrong with the Zhou family, and planned to start with her. In order not to startle the snake, I only started with the concierge today.

But in the process of checking the concierge today, Yan Shaoxun found a very interesting thing.

There is the lord of Mingzhu and his own stay, so the food of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion is a little more, which is understandable. But there is a question, what are the twenty-two Assassins who have been lurking in these days?

As the head of the house, the Fang family was handling the housekeeping at this time, arranging large and small things.

When the third housekeeper's daughter-in-law was scolded, everyone understood that the young lady was in a very bad mood. Indeed, last night's statement that Zhou's delivery of cotton clothes was simply a slap in Fang's face.

Obviously, she is saying that it is because the housewife is not sympathetic to those guards, so she overstepped her responsibilities and caused misunderstandings.

hated her husband and second brother, the brotherly love was deep, and she was not good, and she didn't dare to sow discord, so she had to swallow this sulking breath raw. This sullen breath can only be vented with these stewards in my heart.

When the maids reported that the Fifth Prince and Xiao Yao had come, the Fang clan put away their anger.

smiled and greeted him: "Why did the fifth prince and the fourth brother come over?" Is there any clue to this? Or is there something I need help with? ”

Xiao Yao arched his hand and said, "Sister-in-law, we just have a little situation and want to learn from you." ”

"Okay, okay, just ask. What I don't know, it just so happens that the stewards are here, and they must know everything, and they must say everything. ”

Nonsense, when the Fang clan was in charge, a Jurchen assassin appeared in the family, and she herself was also panicked, wishing to find out the real culprit behind the scenes as soon as possible.

The Fang clan invited the five princes to sit down in the flower hall with Xiaoyao, and then all the stewards lined up in two rows and stood below waiting for orders.

"The steward down below you is in charge of the kitchen?"

As soon as the fifth prince spoke, two people walked out of the steward, and said tremblingly: "Back to the fifth prince, there are now three kitchens, and there are a total of four people in charge of the kitchen, in addition to me and Mrs. Chen, there are two people in the kitchen preparing lunch." ”

"Very well, I just wanted to ask, except for me and the county lord, who have just moved in. What are the strange things about the food and drink in your old yard? ”

When the fifth prince asked, Xiao Yaomao suddenly opened.

I see! Since twenty-two people have sneaked in, their daily food is a big problem.

The five princes hit the nail on the head!

It's a pity that the kitchen steward was stupid and didn't understand what Yan Shaoxun said.

Since Xiao Yao already understood, he added: "To put it simply, you were mainly responsible for the food of those hospitals before? ”

This question is simple and clear, and the kitchen steward Chen Pozi said busily: "Back to the fifth prince, the fourth young master, the Hou Ye is not in the mansion all the year round, we used to be mainly responsible, Qingzhang Yuan, Qinghua Yuan, Liuying Yuan, and Lanyuan." ”

"Is there anything unusual in these four courtyards recently?"

When Xiao Yao asked, Fang's scalp was numb, and he looked over in a little horror, Xiao Yao was suspicious, were there Jurchens hidden in these courtyards?

Mrs. Chen blinked her eyes and said a little dazedly: "What is abnormal?" ”

Yan Shaoxun smiled and said, "The dietary portion of each of your hospitals should be based on the number of people, right?" Have you been in a yard lately that has suddenly been running out of food, or asking you to make more food to send to you? ”

"It's ......."

Mrs. Chen didn't dare to hide it, and replied after a little thought: "Go back to the fifth prince." There is no change in this other courtyard, but where is the Miss Yuehui Courtyard, she has privately ordered some more meals a few days ago. ”

"Moonlight Temple? Miss Table? ”

Xiao Yao was confused, and Fang Shi hurriedly explained: "This is the daughter of the second lady's cousin's family, and she only came here at the beginning of this year. She is a new widow, so she stayed closed all day and did not come to visit the five princes and the lord of Mingzhu. ”

"Oh, can you show me about my cousin?"

Fang also vaguely understood, and whispered: "Fourth brother, do you want to tell your father, let's bring more people over?" ”

Xiao Yao just wanted to say that he didn't need it, but suddenly remembered something, exchanged glances with Yan Shaoxun, and said in unison: "It's not good!" ”
