Uncle Rong told the previous events in a few words, including the matter of Lu Li and the silver mine.

After speaking, Uncle Rong stared at Feng Qi and asked, "You are here to catch heads, have you found any abnormal clues?" ”

Feng Qi nodded, his expression very serious.

"Earlier, my lord asked me to escort a group of death row prisoners to the quarry behind the green mountain. The adults said that they are also death row inmates anyway, so it is better to let them do some labor, which can be regarded as a good deed. ”

In prisons, it is common for death row inmates to be sent to a bitter and tiring place like a quarry, so Feng Qi didn't find it strange at first.

Uncle Rong's fingers moved slightly, and he nodded: "You continue." ”

"When I arrived at the quarry, I handed over the man to the steward of the quarry, but the steward did not let us into the quarry, and I wanted to go in and rest, but I refused." Feng Qi touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "Generally speaking, the steward of a quarry is absolutely unwilling to offend me, but when I looked at his attitude that day, I didn't mean that at all. Feel...... That man shouldn't be a mere quarry steward. Moreover, I just want to rest, even if I don't know each other, there's no reason to refuse, right? ”

"Unless, there is a secret in this quarry, and he is afraid that if you go in, he will find out." Uncle Rong picked up Feng Qi's words and came to a conclusion.

But......

"I also know about the quarry behind this green mountain, do you think it looks like a silver mine?" Uncle Rong asked Feng Qi's opinion.

After coming to Qiongzhou City, this was the first time that Uncle Rong had heard of silver mines on the boundary of Qiongzhou City.

The soil of Qiongzhou City is good, very fertile, and there are mountains and waters, which are suitable for planting farmers and fruit trees, and even fish ponds are good.

It's just that this silver mine has always been rich in silver in the northwest.

Feng Qi frowned tightly, the shape of the word "Chuan" appeared, and he touched his head with a headache, "Although I didn't go in that day to see, it was as big as a mountain range, even if I didn't go in, I could see that a group of mountains behind the green mountains, even with very little vegetation, looked a little barren, otherwise it wouldn't have become a quarry." ”

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a silver mine.

Mountains are not something that can be hidden.

"I don't think there's something right here, the more ordinary it is, the more it's wrong." Uncle Rong obviously had a different opinion, "If it's really a simple quarry, why won't you let it in?" And...... I've heard that there is no official seal of silver in your town......"

Where in the world can there be such a coincidence?

Once is a coincidence, twice is definitely not a coincidence.

Even if it's not something they want to investigate, there is definitely a different secret hidden inside.

"By the way, you can see the officers and soldiers of the Qiongzhou City Government passing by you?" Uncle Rong remembered this and hurriedly asked.

Feng Qi nodded, "Yesterday, it came from us before dawn, and the battle was not small." ”

"You mean to say that yesterday they just passed through here, then went south, and didn't come back?"

Uncle Rong's heart jumped.

Slightly nervous.

Seeing Uncle Rong look like this, Feng Qi's face was also dyed with a bit of solemnity, "Yes." ”

"Steward Rong, do you suspect that Miss was taken to the quarry by those people?" Feng Qi raised his eyebrows, and also thought of this possibility.

Uncle Rong nodded, "Although this is not a necessary place to return to the city, but ......"

"But for those officers and soldiers, it is safest to take the official road, so there is a good chance that they will take the young lady to the quarry."

"That's right, although the city government has more troops, but after the incident, everyone will think of going to the city government. On the contrary, this quarry, which no one notices, is safer. ”

Feng Qi was slightly excited, but still a little puzzled: "Except for us, no one knows Miss's identity, why did they arrest Miss?" ”

They've backed down so much, can't they?

Don't ...... Too much deception.

Uncle Rong shook his head, "This matter is eighty percent affected by that person named Lu Li." Although I don't know where Miss hid Lu Li, it should be Miss who helped him hide it. Although this matter is not aimed at Miss at present, it ......"

"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of just in case."

Miss is the only one left, no matter what, they have to protect Miss thoroughly!

"Yes, that's right." Feng Qi nodded in agreement, "Although I have been away from the capital for many years, I, Feng Qi, have always remembered who gave my life, the old housekeeper can rest assured, as long as I can help, I will definitely do my best." ”

There is no way to repay the life-saving grace of the year, so I can only repay the young lady.

Uncle Rong glanced at Feng Qi and patted Feng Qi's shoulder with appreciation, "I know, I know you're loyal." ”

As he spoke, Uncle Rong took out a purse from his arms, which was embroidered by An Xiaojiu.

Above is a cute Pixiu.

"You have some money in it, help me inquire when the next batch of death row inmates will be sent to the quarry."

Feng Qi originally wanted to refuse, but when he heard this, he paused and asked, "Steward Rong, what do you ......mean?"

"If you are suspicious, you have to go in and check to be relieved." Uncle Rong's old face was solemn, "Miss falls into the hands of those people for a day, and I can't feel at ease." ”

Although he could be sure that at least until now, the young lady's life was not in danger.

But I just know it, and if my life is really in danger, I won't have time to rescue it.

"That's too aggrieved to accommodate the housekeeper." Feng Qi hesitated.

Although he also wanted to rescue the young lady as soon as possible, Steward Rong was also old after all, and he was mixed into the death row prisoner, but there was no good treatment.

Not to mention eating and drinking, when you get to the quarry, you can't avoid having to do coolies, and if you don't do it, you will be whipped, and even have no food to eat, and you will be bullied.

This......

Can the housekeeper stand it?

"There's nothing to hesitate about, you can hurry up and arrange it." Uncle Rong stood up and said to Feng Qi seriously, "Think about how much kindness I received from the main family back then, if I can't even keep the only bloodline of the main family, what kind of face do you and I have to stand in this world?" ”

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

Uncle Rong said the name of an inn and left.

Feng Qimo held the pattern on the purse, looking inexplicable.

"What are you looking at?" The woman's peculiar soft voice came, waking up Feng Qi.

Feng Qi looked at the woman who came over and then sat on his lap, and her expression softened, "It's nothing." ”

Watching Feng Qi put things away, Yue Yao's face changed slightly, "Can't tell me?" ”

"There are some things that I can't tell you." Feng Qi pushed the woman away and stood up, "You don't have to wait for me at night. ”

Yue Yao looked at Feng Qi's back and suddenly sneered twice.
