Cheng Minzhi still felt that this general was too serious.

But because he didn't know that Qi Yiyi was ordered to interrogate Mrs. Xu's stubble, he didn't have any opinion on this.

On the contrary, because they have been training hard for so long, the hearts of several people who are eager to eat and drink spicy food have begun to be restless again.

"We found a place to open meat for dinner, and after a few days of fasting, the oil in the intestines was almost gone!" Xing Shuo rubbed his stomach and said.

Qi Yiyi had no opinion, discussed a few words, and then went separately, first went back to the room to wash off the stinky sweat, and then went to forage for food.

Xing Xiaowei misses Qi Zizhan very much: "I knew I would bring him over, if he came, I would be happy to eat every day!" ”

"It just shows that we don't have a mouth." Qi Yiyi said.

The three small ones in the family, except for Ziyu, had already entered the camp, and they wanted to follow, but Jing Ninghou, who was pressing on top of them, did not allow it.

An hour later, I arrived in a nearby town and sat down in a shop that looked clean and thriving.

The shopkeeper saw that they all had extraordinary temperament with fine skin and tender meat, and he personally served tea: "The red stewed pig's trotters in our store taste very authentic, do you want a few young masters and girls to have one?" ”

These people came out to eat meat, pig's trotters, pork ribs, pheasants, fish, plus half a catty of wine and a few vegetarian dishes.

It is easy not to drink alcohol in the camp, except for the grand deeds and celebrations, although they are not disciplined, but Xu Kun obviously will not care about them so much, and they will still be punished if they know it, so the young masters do not dare to drink too much. In order to avoid the sight of his comrades, he deliberately chose a table in the farthest corner from the door.

"Do you have private rooms?"

As soon as Qi Miao's cup of tea was delivered to his mouth, two more people walked in the door.

Although it is a store with more than ten or twenty tables and a full house of guests, it is not difficult to recognize these two people, even if they are only wearing brocade robes instead of python robes, Xiao Heng is the one who hits the front, and the beard behind them is Peng Yin.

Qi Yiyi never expected to see him at the outer end of Tongzhou City, which is nearly a hundred miles away from Beijing......

Why is he here?!

"There is a private room, please upstairs!" The shopkeeper's eyebrows and eyes have narrowed into a line of smiles, and everyone will be happy when a distinguished guest arrives.

Xiao Heng raised his head forward, and Peng Yin glanced at the store hall, only to see that the twenty or so tables in the hall were all full, and the upstairs and downstairs were laughing and noisy. But the diners looked neatly dressed, so they withdrew their eyes and followed upstairs.

It wasn't until the two of them went upstairs that everyone was allowed to lift their faces from their cups.

"Who's coming?" Cheng Minzhi wondered.

"King of Chu." She said, "I saw him and Peng Yin go upstairs to the private room. ”

"He's there too?" Yan Yan is also a little wary of the King of Chu because of his brother's relationship. "What is he doing here?"

Qi Miaoyi shrugged.

Tongzhou is close to the capital, the county is prosperous, and Xiao Heng has been in the city for two days.

Liyun gave him the direction, and when he returned to Beijing, he followed the line of Sun Peng and Xu Lingying, and sure enough, there were some traces of spiders and worms.

After Xu Lingying's identity was exposed, the emperor did not taboo her, so many people knew that she was Xu Qian's daughter.

But because the cause of Xu Qian's death involved the emperor, he couldn't find out too obviously after all.

Xu Qian is the only known clue about that time, and Sun Peng and Xu Lingying are the only people involved in exploring this clue.

In the past half a month, I first went to the imperial mausoleum, first got in touch with Sun Peng, and then transferred him back.

Because of this, Xu Lingying's past was also clarified.

Sun Peng said that Xu Lingying opened a tea shop here with her biological mother, and her biological mother passed away later, so Xu Lingying was taken care of by Sun Peng in Beijing. Then Xu Lingying's mother should be the one who is close to Xu Qian's side and survives the latest.

Their mother and daughter live here, and they open shops, and someone must take care of their daily life, and if they want to find clues, they naturally can't avoid here.

"The pig's trotters in our store are signboards, do you want to come to two catties?"

The shopkeeper's routine sales pitch. "It's all simmered slowly over a simmer, and a few little boys downstairs ordered three catties!"

Xiao Heng had no opinion, ordered a few things casually, and shook the fan.

"Did you find out what happened?" He asked.

"At present, three people have been found, one is from the Xu family's tea shop as a bookkeeper, and the other is Xu Lingying's wet nurse. Now the Xu family's tea shop is Xu Lingying's cousin watching. But if he says it's a cousin, he should actually recognize it. Because Xu Lingying's biological mother's ancestral home is not in the local area, she was just Xu Qian's roommate, and there are no relatives who can be contacted.

"All three of them have met Mother Xu before."

"Did you get a clue?" He shook his glass.

Peng Yin said: "Because there is no one living in the Xu family's old house, there is only an old grandmother who is looking after the house. And these three people are all countrymen, and they don't have any logic in speaking, and they are a little wary of strangers from outside, so they can't ask anything for a while. But they didn't suspect us in any way. ”

After listening to this, Xiao Heng said for a while: "Go find that nurse and come over, just say that I want to invite someone at home." ”

……

Qi Yiyi didn't come forward to greet Xiao Heng in the end.

One was because she didn't want him to feel like she was paying attention to him, and the other was that she always felt that it was unreasonable for him to appear in this mountainous place.

In the impression that he is a person who likes wind and snow, if he goes to any beautiful scenery such as Jiangnan such as Wuyue and other places, she will not be surprised at all, but in addition to a few bare mountains here, the rest is really not much to see.

Of course, this can't be generalized, after all, in his previous life, he later accepted a beautiful country woman as a concubine in Huizhou.

But she never expected that halfway through the meal, she would see Peng Yin bring a half-old woman back, and she took her upstairs directly!

That's not normal, right?

He, a high-ranking prince, came here to meet an old woman?

But she still forced this curiosity down.

You can't say that just because he's here, there's something wrong with him, and you can't say that he's doing something when he's here to meet a country woman.

What if he just wants to hire a guide and learn about the local folklore? …… But this is a bit of a, how far can Tongzhou be from Jingshi? Is it also worth knowing about the customs?

In short, she still didn't chew any taste of this pig's trotters.

After thinking about it for a while, when the woman came out alone, she still beckoned Xing Shuo over and said a few words in her ear.

Xing Shuo nodded, wiped his mouth and followed.

Cheng Minzhi didn't know what medicine she was selling in her gourd, and she didn't say it immediately when they asked, so they just forgot it.

Then Yan Nan paid the bill, and a few people went back to the camp first.

Qi Mi kept an eye on it, afraid that Xiao Heng would see it and go to the back door with them.
