Chapter Ninety-Six: Suspicious Clouds

Yu Xi couldn't tell what was going on, and as soon as Tan Gu saw Rong Shiyi, he immediately asked sharply, "You say, what happened here?"

Rong Shiyi frowned, tried his best to suppress his impatience, and said, "On the way, I encountered a robbery by mountain bandits, and the carriage of the wives unfortunately fell off the cliff.

Jin Jiaojiao looked at the seventh aunt, and felt that this person was very similar to the masked woman in the teahouse yesterday, and remembered the gossip in the teahouse about the nameless corpse of Xiaoxishan, and most of the people who were killed were Tan Gu's aunts and wives, but they were ......

Yu Xi grabbed Tan Gu's sleeve to wipe her tears, and glanced at Rong Shiyi coldly, this glance happened to be in full view of Jin Jiaojiao, who was looking at her, these two people disliked each other but forced to act in this play together, and it was really embarrassing for Rong Shiyi to pretend to be guilty and regretful.

"How can it be! These bandits even ...... me."

Tan Gu didn't finish the rest of the words, and the people present knew that this was and pulled on the head of the emperor, and the family members of the Tan Mansion dared to move, and these bandits simply didn't know what it meant.

"Tell your subordinates to go and get a doctor. Xiao Tao, send my wife back to the room to rest first." z.br>

The maid helped Yu Xi back to the backyard, Tan Gu suppressed his anger and apologized to the guests in an orderly manner, and instructed the housekeeper to arrange for the guests to leave the house, and then hurriedly left the banquet with Rong Shiyi.

Everyone present had a lot of discussions, guessing that Tan Gu was afraid that he would send troops to clear out the bandits this time. The businessmen secretly rejoiced in their hearts, although they made a lot of money by following Tan Gu to do smuggling, but if they could completely eradicate the lair of mountain bandits and water bandits, they would have one more way to do business.

Tanfu's birthday banquet ended early, Jin Jiaojiao followed the guests to disperse, thinking about what happened in the past two days, if the woman in the teahouse was Yu Xi, obviously their robbery was nonsense, then what happened to the nameless corpse in Xiaoxishan? I'm afraid it wasn't because of banditry.

"Click。。。。。。

There was a sudden sound of tea cups falling to the ground in the crowd.

"Childe forgives sins, Childe forgives sins, slave and maid wipe you clean."

A servant girl tripped while walking and accidentally spilled the tea in her hand on the guest.

The maid lowered her head in horror, and hurriedly reached out to help the unlucky guest wipe it, Jin Jiaojiao and Zhao Bingyu followed the prestige and found that the unlucky guest was Liu Xuanhe.

"Huh!"

Zhao Bingyu echoed her surprise and pretended to be surprised, "That's not, Liu Da。。。。。。 Gu Gongzi?"

He had only secretly connected with Liu Xuanhe in the backyard of Tan Mansion before a stick of incense, so naturally there was no surprise, but what he didn't know was that the person Jin Jiaojiao was surprised by was not Liu Xuanhe, but the maid who accidentally tripped up. The maid is dressed plainly and low-key, and there is really nothing special if you don't look closely. At first, Jin Jiaojiao thought that she was dazzled and recognized the wrong person, or just looked similar, until she saw the blood mole behind the maid's left ear, and the pomegranate petals that were tattooed around the blood mole, this person was clearly Wangyue, the proprietress of the Tibetan Flower Tianxiang Pavilion, and Jin Jiaojiao was sure that she would never admit her mistake.

Why did she come to Yangzhou? How could it appear in Tan Mansion? And the night Chen Nian was burned to death by the fire boat, what role did she play in it? Which big man in the imperial court is the master mentioned by Ouyang Qingluo, and will he also be the master behind Wangyue?

All kinds of complicated issues disturbed Jin Jiaojiao's thoughts.

"Wife, wife." Zhao Bingyu stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her, "What do you think? It's so distracted."

"Nothing."

Liu Xuanhe was ordered to come to Yangzhou to investigate the case, and it was natural for him to appear in Tan Mansion, Wangyue approached Liu Xuanhe, what were those people plotting behind them? As soon as Jin Jiaojiao thought of Chen Nian's sharp and hideous cry for help before she died, her back was cold, and her chest was uncomfortable.

"Why is your face so bad?" Zhao Bingyu moved faster than words, touching her forehead, "It's so hot."

Jin Jiaojiao also reached out to probe, it was indeed hot.

She only felt that her throat was very dry today, and everything else was fine.

"It's fine."

"It's okay." Zhao Bingyu's fingers scraped the tip of her handsome nose, and then directly picked up the person and walked to his carriage, "I don't know if I'm sick, what do I say about you."

Yes, I will punish you well when I go home."

The tone is warm and angry, but the action is concerned and gentle, which is very useful to Jin Jiaojiao, she decided not to think about those rights and wrongs for the time being, and coveted this warm embrace.

On the other side, the housekeeper Tong saw an accident in the crowd, and stepped forward to scold the servant girl, Liu Xuanhe inevitably made a big fuss and exposed his identity, and cleverly said that he would resolve the crisis for the servant girl, and then withdrew and left the Tan Mansion.

When he reacted that the servant girl had a problem and turned back to look for the person, he had already disappeared from the person, and only found a small note in his shirt, with beautiful handwriting, and wrote: Tonight, go to the horse ferry, Tan Gu, Kou.

Liu Xuanhe's heart was also full of suspicions, and he couldn't distinguish whether the other party was friend or foe, and whether the information was true or false.

In any case, it is also a clue, in order to collect more evidence of Tan Gu's crimes, he has to find out whether it is true or false tonight.

。。。。。。

Xu is day and night climate change is too great, Jin Jiaojiao did catch a cold, the doctor read it and prescribed medicine and it was no big deal, but Zhao Bingyu felt that it was very important, Zhang Luo before Zhang Luo, and kept saying that she must have been injured by the serious illness in the capital before, which caused her body to weaken. By the way, she secretly tasted it again, and felt that her previous serious illness was all because of Yan Huaizhen's dog man. Jin Jiaojiao stubbornly disliked his mother-in-law on her lips, but her heart was sweet, although she was sick, her heart seemed to float on a soft marshmallow. Needless to say, the old couple of Nanfu are afraid that it will be difficult to find a second man in this world who cares so much about their granddaughter, so after asking Kong Qier to come over and ask for peace, he took his great-grandson back to rest.

Coaxed people to drink the medicine, Zhao Bingyu stepped back, stayed in front of the bed, and read a new book for Jin Jiaojiao.

Outside the window, the autumn breeze is bleak, the fallen leaves are flying, the yarn in the house is tied to the hook and hangs on the ground, the warm candle flame is reflected on the face, and the whole outline is softened, Jin Jiaojiao remembered that her father also sat in front of her mother's bed like this when she was a child.

Zhao Bingyu saw her looking at herself stupidly, and smiled softly, "Why are you staring at me so stupidly? But I was confused by the handsome god who was a husband."

"You're much more handsome when you're not narcissistic than when you're narcissistic. In other words, when you don't speak, you're at the peak of your handsomeness."

Zhao Bingyu stopped squeaking in an instant.

"Jia Ming, after we return to Beijing, you can prepare for the scientific examination."

"Du Fuzi appreciates you very much, when the time comes, you will go to study at Yingtianfu Academy, don't spend all day doing nothing."

"Although you are rich, no one can look down on you, and a man should stand up to the sky and do a great job."

Jin Jiaojiao turned over, her hands naturally folded together and lay on her cheeks, and asked, "Jia Ming, will you be a good official in the future?"

Then he said, "Jia Ming, you don't have to be a corrupt official in the future, I'm very rich, really."

Zhao Bingyu quietly looked at her well-behaved and innocent, muttering appearance, and only felt that the most beautiful scenery in the world was right in front of him.
