Some of the onlookers are accusing the second room of the Jin family of being shameless, some are comforting the miserable master Jin Jiashu, and many people are privately discussing all kinds of gossip about the Jin family's case.

But the person who can tell the background of the Jin family obviously has a different identity.

The maid couldn't help but look behind her.

As she expected, standing behind her was a man dressed in the costume of a government official, who looked quite strong and capable. He was conversed by a strong man with gray temples, dressed as a passing merchant. The two men didn't seem to know each other, and the strong man actively inquired about the news of the Jin family's case from the official, claiming that he had just returned from a business trip a year ago and had missed the news of the Jin family. He said a lot of compliments to the official, and the official was so happy that he was a little speechless.

He even said the fate of the murderer who killed the Jin family: "Tomorrow will be officially passed, and then the little brother of the Jin family, the bitter master, will also come forward." The evidence and material evidence in this case are complete, the facts of the case are clear, there is nothing to say, and the verdict can be directly pronounced after the trial. If you really want to know what's going on, just go outside the court tomorrow. The prefect never minded the people coming to hear the trial, as long as he didn't make trouble. ”

The strong man hurriedly thanked the official for informing him, and asked with some curiosity: "Is this murderer really a person sent by the Sun family?" Didn't their master send anyone to save him? ”

The official sneered: "Why save it?" Our prefect's yamen arrested eight people, six of whom were killed by Du Boqin, and the remaining two were saved with great difficulty. The cruel and ruthless people like the Sun family knew that if something happened to their subordinates, they would only let them die, so how could they bother to send someone to save them? Our brother waited for two months, and we didn't wait for a single figure, and we were dying of exhaustion. ”

The strong man smiled: "The poor master has worked hard. If the Sun family doesn't come to save people, the little one can guess a few points. You just said that this time it was the concubine in the palace who couldn't see other concubines being favored, so she sent someone to kill her relatives to vent her anger. As soon as I heard this, I knew that it was the woman's mind. The elder of the pavilion wants to take care of national affairs, how could he come to Chang'an to make trouble for such a trivial matter? The concubine's people were caught by the government, and he couldn't wait for them to die quickly, so naturally he wouldn't send someone to save them. Even if the concubine is reluctant to send her subordinates, no one can send it. She can't let the emperor come to save people, right? Isn't the lady who died her relative going to make trouble? ”

The official laughed when he heard this: "Yes, there is some truth in what you say. However, even if the concubine said that the emperor Lao'er was moved to save people, it would not be possible. Our prefect is a good and upright official, so he will not let go of the criminals who are convicted of crimes! ”

The maid looked back, her eyes shining brightly. She felt that she had found a way to return to Beijing with meritorious service. Even if you can't please Lord Sun Yongbai, it's not bad to be able to please Sun Guifei!

Although this maid had been trained as a spy in the Sun family, she was still young at that time, and her strength had laid a foundation, but she had not learned her scheming. She has lived in the Tang family with her grandmothers for many years, her life is relatively stable, and she rarely takes risks to do tasks, and she is used to seeing any inconspicuous person from the side tribe within the Tang family who can tell military information that sounds very important. She also thought that this kind of casual hearing of important news on the street was very common in the entire Chang'an City. She was able to write down the news of the Jin family's prisoners revealed by the official behind her, thinking that she would find a chance to meet the two dead soldiers in the prison, which was already cautious.

She was silently thinking about how to use to contact the two prisoners who were about to be sentenced to death, and she heard the official behind her ask the strong man what kind of business he was doing, and when he heard that he was selling medicinal materials, he asked about the prices of several medicinal materials, and he thought the price was too expensive.

The strong man said that this is the market price, and he didn't make much. The official muttered two sentences that his money was spent on buying medicine, and it was really hard to have a sick old lady at home, Yunyun. The strong man had no choice but to say that he could give a discount and ask the officials to take care of him.

The maid eavesdropped for a while, and saw that the strong man was leading the official to see the medicinal herbs, so she turned around and stared at the official a few more times. She remembered this man, and felt that she could take advantage of this money-starved official.

As soon as the maid retracted her gaze, she found that a pair of brothers and sisters with faces came to her side at some point, and they were also watching the confrontation between Jin Jiashu and everyone in the second room of the Jin family, and they were still whispering: "This little brother of the Jin family is really pitiful, he has no parents and relatives, he is lonely, and the rest of his relatives are staring at his money." If he relented for a while and helped this cousin, he was afraid that people would turn around and take advantage of his unpreparedness and plot his life, and his property would still fall into the hands of his cousin's family. ”

"Yes. If it were me, I wouldn't have met such a ruthless clansman, wouldn't it be good to hide far away? I don't want to be approached by relatives like that. If he harms me, but pretends to be a robber, will I not die in vain......"

The maid glanced sideways at the brother and sister, and found that they were all neatly dressed, they were all typical children of local military families, simple and decent, but obviously they were not from rich and noble families, and they were not worthy of her attention. She withdrew her gaze, but her mind was filled with an impression of their conversation.

The door of the third room of the Zhou family opened, and when the family came out, Zhou Shigong, the fifth master of the family, reprimanded Jin Xin and his wife, and talked with Jin Jiashu. Seeing this, the maid hurriedly left the brother and sister and squeezed closer to Jin Jiashu, wanting to find out what the two of them had to say.

The maid didn't notice it, and as soon as she left, the passers-by who were standing beside her and behind her dispersed. Some of them followed her to a new location, while the pair of passers-by moved to an inconspicuous place at the entrance of the roadside alley, where they joined the official and the strong man they had just talked to.

The maid probably didn't expect that the "passers-by" around her who would reveal the news to her were actually all here for her. Although the other onlookers will discuss the case of the Jin family and all kinds of rumors related to Du Boqin, the person who will mention the key information of "the Jin family has a relationship with the palace concubine" just wants her to hear the news alone.

Once this task is complete, the "passers-by" in charge of revealing the news can leave and start talking to real friends.

The young man among the passers-by saluted the official messenger: "Huang Zhutou, I haven't seen you for a few days, how are you lately?" ”

"Okay, okay. Brother Hai is still full of energy. Huang Zhutou glanced at the girl beside the reef with a smile, "This is Brother Hai, your sister, right?" I didn't expect you brothers and sisters to come here today. ”

Haitang actually came with her grandmother and brother, and now Ma is still talking with Zhou Ma in the third room of the Zhou family, and their brother and sister ran outside the door to see the excitement, and they also participated in the calculation of the maid by the way. But these things, she didn't need to talk to Huang Zhutou in so much detail, she just smiled sweetly at him and saluted: "Huang Zhutou is good." My grandparents and grandparents said, thank you for taking care of my brother all the time. When are you free, let my brother invite you to dinner? ”

"Well said, well said." Huang Zhutou responded with a smile.

Haijiao turned to the strong man again: "Grandpa Zhang, can we really make today's arrangement?" ”

When Huang Zhutou heard this, he also looked at the strong man Lao Zhangtou.

Lao Zhangtou smiled and said, "When did the old military master miss his idea?" Rest assured, this is only the first layer of arrangement. If they go to the government prison to find out the news, they have to follow the plan and deal with it. ”

Huang Zhutou smiled: "Don't worry, our brothers are ready." If they do, we'll fool them so much that they can't find the north! As soon as he thought that their government might catch another group of people, he couldn't help but get excited.

The four of them all looked at the maid who didn't know that they had stepped into the trap, and they all smiled meaningfully.
