Gu Rongrong asked everyone to go outside first, and asked Fan Zhong's uncle and nephew to take the official messenger to find out if there were any other people in the cave.

Gu Rongrong and Leng Xinghe, Leng Slowly, are considered to be another way.

Lao Zaifu was dissatisfied: "The old man will also follow to find it." ”

Xi Shu persuaded in a low voice: "You better wait outside with me, the situation inside is unknown, in case ......"

"What if?" Lao Zaifu frowned, "It is precisely because the situation is unknown that I have to find out, as a ...... If all the people of the country are only for self-preservation, is it not the sorrow of our country? Although the old man is old, he can keep up. ”

He glanced at Leng Xinghe: "All patients are okay, and the old man is even better." ”

Leng Xinghe: "......" You're spying on me, right?

Xi Shu had no choice but to follow.

Leng Su, who was in the crowd, squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then stood up and said, "I'll follow too." ”

Gu Rongrong knew his skills, and although she had multiple layers of protection with him, these people outside still had to be protected.

"There aren't so many people, you're outside!"

Leng quickly looked at Leng Zhitang and the princess, and nodded in agreement.

The officials and errands led by Fan Zhong were all his colleagues, and they were sent by the Criminal Department, and they were not all the way with Gu Wenlou and Wu Chaguan and others.

They have no grievances with Gu Rongrong and Changning Palace, they are just on business, they have been rescued by Gu Rongrong several times along the way, and they have seen Gu Rongrong helping Fan Zhong's uncle and nephew, and they actually have a good impression of her.

This time, Gu Rongrong promised them to find medicine to detoxify, and she had a little more respect for her.

Therefore, let them find out if there are other people who want to behave well.

They were walking in the direction given by Brother Feng and others, looking for the trapped villagers, Gu Rongrong had other plans, they wanted to see if there were any other clues about the people behind the scenes.

Last time, I pounced on it, but this time it was rare to catch someone, and there was no time to transport the ore, maybe I could find something along the vine.

The mountain road dug here is wide, and there are many rut marks on the ground.

Leng Xinghe said: "This should be the road used to haul ore. ”

Gu Rongrong said: "It's a pity that Brother Feng and they are just little ghosts, and they don't know the specific clues." ”

Old Jaesuke looked at the rut on the ground and said, "Why do I think this rut is a little familiar?" ”

Gu Rongrong was puzzled: "Ruts? ”

"Yes, girl, you have a job, my dynasty has a strict system in many aspects, such as honor guards, clothing, and car use are also one of them."

"Let's not talk about it, a car with a distance like this is generally a vehicle built by the yamen for escort," Lao Zaifu pointed to the ruts on the ground with a stick in his hand, "You see, the distance between the cars, and the width of the wheels, are much larger than ordinary carriages, and they bear more weight and walk steadily, which is its most obvious feature." ”

Lao Zaifu touched his beard and looked around: "It's strange, I haven't heard of any mines in this area." ”

Xi Shu cleared his throat: "How do you know this? ”

Lao Zaifu's eyes widened: "Joke, how can the old man not know?" Old man ......"

Xi Shu interrupted him: "You are a little old man who has traveled the rivers and lakes, we can't just listen to some rumors and take it seriously." ”

Lao Zaifu suddenly came to his senses, coughed a few times and swallowed his words back.

Gu Rongrong didn't break it, Leng Xinghe pretended not to understand, and looked down at the rut, thinking about what he just said.

The car of the government, but Lao Zaifu didn't know about it, although he was not in the court, but his children and protégés were there, and he would know about such a major event as a mine.

He didn't know, that is, the court didn't know.

The court didn't know, but there was a car from the government.

What does this mean?

Gu Rongrong and Leng Xinghe glanced at each other, tacitly acknowledging each other - it shows that the person behind the scenes is related to the government.

The last time they could get to the prefecture's mansion from the cave, and then the county magistrate's family was wiped out, they already had this guess.

This time, it's almost certain.

Leng Xinghe was secretly frightened, his father was killed, and the Changning Mansion was wronged, could it be because he discovered something and knew about the existence of this mine? Because he refused to go along with the stream, he was killed?

"Let's go, let's take a look forward," Gu Rongrong said.

After walking forward for a short time, at the end, I saw two large piles of mined ore, like two hills.

Gu Rongrong looked at these ores, her mind moved slightly, if she was collected in the space and taken away......

Maybe it will come in handy in the future.

If you go to Lingnan, it is very good, and it is not impossible to stay and settle down, if you want to not be controlled by the imperial court, you must have your own strength and arms.

There is food, weapons, people and horses, there is nothing to fear, the court and the emperor are no longer crazy, everything is easy to say, if you dare to reverse black and white......

That's against the fuck!

Gu Rongrong instantly made up her mind, and said earnestly to the others: "These things can't fall into the hands of gangsters, I think, let's seal the cave first, and then send an official to send a letter to the local government, so that they can take over and report to the imperial court." ”

Leng Xinghe frowned slightly, Gu Rongrong gave him a look, and he pursed his lips again.

Lao Zaifu touched his beard and thought about it, this is fine, he will write an excerpt when he goes back, indicating that it is the first merit of the Changning Palace, and maybe it can also change the emperor's impression of the Changning Palace, and if there is a chance in the future, it is better to let them return to Beijing.

"Okay, I'll see it," he agreed.

The others were not found again, Gu Rongrong proposed to return first, and halfway through, she said again: "Hey, my sachet seems to be missing, you wait, I'll go back and look for it." ”

Leng Xinghe was about to say that he would accompany her, but when he saw the gaze projected by Lao Zaifu, he held back again.

"Grandson, you go," the old Zaifu instructed Xi Shu.

Gu Rongrong said: "No, this is not dangerous, you can just wait for me here." ”

She turned around and hurried back, ran to the ore, and took out a sachet in her hand at random.

Everyone was still waiting for her, and they were relieved to see her return.

Leng Xinghe glanced at the sachet, his eyes flashed slightly, the corners of his mouth curled, and he quickly pressed down.

When he got outside, Fan Zhongzheng was leading people to count the number of people, and the rescued villagers were a little nervous and expectant, all of them were like firewood, and they didn't even dare to look in the direction of Brother Feng.

Seeing Gu Rongrong come out, Fan Zhong greeted him and was about to speak, Gu Rongrong shook her head slightly, signaling him not to reveal his identity.

Fan Zhong was puzzled, he also wanted to talk to the villagers so that they could remember the kindness of Changning Mansion and Gu Rongrong.

But seeing that Gu Rongrong is not without this intention, he is not good at making decisions on his own.

"Give them something to eat and let them go home on their own."

Fan Zhong went to do it, Gu Rongrong whispered to Leng Xinghe: "Inform the secret guards, tell these villagers halfway, let them flee with food and take refuge elsewhere." ”

The person behind the scenes has not been found, and it is hard to guarantee that it will not be like last time, bloody and extinguished.

Leng Xinghe nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, I'll let you arrange it slowly." ”

Including the letter or excerpt written by Lao Zaifu, they will be intercepted together.
