Chapter 11: The thief cries out to catch the thief
"Stop!" Zhang Yushi stopped the official who wanted to suppress Chu Xi, and turned his head to look at Lord Liu who gave the order: "Lord Liu, which play are you singing?" ”
"Lord Yushi, you didn't know when you first came, the mountain people here are very slippery, and this matter seems to be the collusion of these people." After that, he looked at the owner of the noodle shop, and his tone was cold and hard: "In front of Lord Yushi and this official, to be honest, is she in the same group as you?" ”
The noodle shop owner looked at his eyes and immediately nodded: "Yes, yes, she is with us." ”
Zhang Yushi frowned, and looked at him with his hands behind his back: "Then tell me what you originally planned to do, this little girl has been exposing you!" ”
Zhang Yushi's face was pale, quite a bit of the face of a black bread man, the woman was already too scared to speak, and the owner of the noodle restaurant was also holding on, gritting his teeth and saying: "Our plan is to let her relieve you first, and then ask you for money as a thank you, at this time you will definitely give ...... happily."
"!" Zhang Yushi snorted, but still looked at Chu Xi with suspicion.
Chu Xi was not annoyed, she knew that this group of people was an accomplice to the county officials, looking at their experienced appearance, they must have harmed many outsiders, why they have been at ease outside, they must be just those flies and dogs in the official mansion.
"I'm just going to ask you one question." Chu Ji looked at the boss: "What is my surname, and where is my home?" ”
Looking at this little girl's rather calm appearance, the owner of the noodle restaurant was in a trance, shouldn't the little girl of an ordinary family be so frightened that she cried and called her mother: "You live in a temple on the mountain......" More he couldn't speak.
The county magistrate glared at the man dissatisfied, and the man immediately understood, and hurriedly said: "Your name is Nier, and you live in my house!" ”
Chu Xi didn't argue with him, and gave Zhang Yushi a slight blessing: "The little daughter Chu Ji lives in the nunnery on the mountain, and her father, Chu Bingsong, now lives in the capital. ”
"Chu Xi?" Liu Yushi was slightly surprised, and then he looked at Chu Xilai carefully, dressed in coarse old cotton clothes, very thin, a small face was still a little yellowed because of malnutrition, and her hair was simply pulled up with a wooden hairpin, and the whole person stood there, as if the wind could blow her down if it was stronger, is this really the daughter sent by Prime Minister Chu three years ago?
In Liu Yushi's deep groaning, the owner of the noodle restaurant and the woman had been arrested, but in the cold day, Lord Liu was sweating profusely: "My lord, let's go back and interrogate these two first, I don't know how many people have been harmed." "Lord Liu, he really fell into blood mold today, he met a Zhang Yushi, not to mention, and now there is a daughter of the prime minister, although he is not favored, but he is so famous.
Zhang Yushi bowed his head slightly and looked at Chu Xi: "Your father hasn't sent someone to take you back?" ”
Chu Xi shook her head with a bitter smile: "Lord Lao Yu Shi saw my father and said hello for me." ”
Looking at Chu Ji like this, the little grade is already as calm as an adult, and he must have suffered a lot. However, it was rumored that the eldest lady of the Chu family was rude and stupid before, but now it seems that the rumors are false.
"Why don't you go down the mountain alone, I'll let the guards take you back." He had offended the county official just now, so he naturally didn't worry about such a little girl going back alone.
Chu Xi smiled lightly: "No need, I still have to buy medicine." ”
"Buying medicine?" Zhang Yushi felt more and more strange, how could the nunnery let Chu Xi come out alone to buy medicine.
"Well, recently a master in the nunnery was killed, and Yahuan was frightened, so I came to buy some medicine." Chu Ji said, with a hidden uneasiness in his expression, raised his eyes to look at Zhang Yushi, and tears were already seen in his eyes: "Lord Yushi, can you talk to my father and ask him to take me back, or change the nunnery." ”
"What's going on?"
"Don't say that the teachers and wives planted in the nunnery are greased and powdered, my girl said, where you are in the middle of the mountain, you are still ......" Speaking of this, Chu Xi's face turned red: "My lord, please inform my father." With that, he turned and trotted away.
Zhang Yushi's face was dark, and this remote town was full of weirdness. But the weirder the thing, the more he has to investigate!
