Chapter 100 Uses
Jia Xuan didn't care much about these random nonsense behaviors done by the people of the Hou Mansion, and only told the steward sent by the Hou Ye about this matter, and he would deal with it.
She continued to track down the killer from clues.
After a while, the old servant rushed over, and Fang Pozi's body was also carried by the family to the outer courtyard with a door panel.
Jia Xuan had already seen Fang Pozi's corpse and didn't plan to look at it in detail.
The matter is too involved and too related, if the gangsters can't go through the official route to be known to the world, the assassination suffered by the prince during this period of time, and the various criticisms suffered by the Hou Mansion will not be able to get the light and light.
Therefore, this case has to let the government know who the gangster is step by step.
Of course, with their abilities, they couldn't fight with Gu masters. But Jia Xuan can help "lead the way".
For example, the traces of the bite of the red scorpion Gu are much more exaggerated than those caused by ordinary scorpions, but there are still traces to follow, and it can be found that they are caused by scorpions. If the old man really can't tell that it was the scorpion, after she finds out the murderer, she can also knock on the side to remind her.
And so on and so forth.
When the case came to light, the wicked man was punished, and she covered up the information about Gu.
Even if the red scorpion Gu looked a little "inappropriate" in appearance, she could still think of ways to cover it up. Otherwise, let's just say that the scorpion has changed because of the things around it, and so on.
Not long after, Zheng Tiezhu's family came.
With the officials of Jingzhao Mansion and the old servant here, Jia Xuan, who was working at the exploration site, put aside the work for the time being, and took Zheng Tiezhu's family to a secluded place next to it. The other party carefully took out the paper in his arms and held it to Jia Xuan.
Because she was in a hurry, she folded the paper without waiting for the ink to dry, and looked at the ink on both sides of the paper when it was closed, and couldn't help but sigh "oops" and was annoyed: "Girl, I'm really sorry, I can't do anything with this idea." ”
Jia Xuan smiled: "It's okay, you're doing a good job." I want this thing, and the most important thing is 'fast'. Anyway, I can read the words clearly, and I have to thank you for getting it so quickly. So saying, he stuffed a bulging purse full of broken silver and gave it to her.
Zheng Tiezhu's family was busy pushing the purse back as if he had received a hot potato: "This can't be done, this can't be ......"
"Don't panic, I'm here for you to hold it for me. You take three pieces of broken silver, that's a reward for you, and I'll use the rest. Jia Xuan stared at the list and the personal days and time behind her, and interrupted her: "All my people have returned to Jiafu, and there is no one around to help with it." Later, if there is a job that needs to be rewarded, you can help me get a reward from it. I have other work for you to do, and if it costs a tael, it's all in it, and you can take it from it. ”
Zheng Tiezhu's family was flattered. On weekdays, only the maid with a face in the house is so lucky, and she is the first time she has encountered it. Busy and seriously thanked: "Then I'll be, well, do things for you seriously, do a lot of things." ”
Jia Xuan's head.
When she saw that there was a gardener on the list who had to do the work every day, she sent a servant to call him: "Why do you have to work every day?" And it's still a daily afternoon? ”
If she remembered correctly, she had asked the gardeners when she was in the flower room, and most of them were on duty in the morning, and in the afternoon there were more than half of the people, leaving only a few people to do sporadic work.
Like the person in front of him, he comes every day, and it's all in the afternoon, but it's abnormal.
The gardener smiled, "The girl doesn't know, I'm in charge of dealing with those not very good flowers." ”
"How?"
"Every day, there are dried and spoiled flowers, and those are naturally thrown away, so there is no need to mention them. But there are also some flowers, like evening dishes, some petals are shriveled, some are withered and yellow, in short, not so delicate and not fresh enough, they have to be disposed of. The gardener said, "But it's a pity that these are thrown away, so I will stay there every day for a while, and if any of the maids and ladies want to order this flower, they can come to me and get it for free." ”
This is the first time Jia Xuan has heard of this statement.
Regardless of whether there is such a rule in Jiafu, if there is, it is impossible for her to pay attention to it on weekdays.
She said to the gardener: "Tell me, who will take the flowers that the flower house doesn't need every day on weekdays?" ”
"That's a lot." The gardener didn't know what Miss Xuan wanted to hear, so he simply thought of a person who came often.
Jia Xuan suddenly asked, "Is there anyone over there who will go to pick up such flowers from Grandma and Aunt Liu?" "The eldest grandmother is the wife of the son, and the people around her can naturally come into contact with the son Hong Wenchang often.
"Yes!" The gardener finally found a target that he could go straight to, and said with a smile: "For example, Cuixiang next to Aunt Liu, and Momei next to Grandma often come over." ”
That's it! Jia Xuan couldn't help but smile when she heard this, and asked, "What about Mrs. Fang?" ”
"Are you talking about the lady Fang who helps us tidy up the flower house and flower garden on weekdays? She's very diligent, but unfortunately I heard that she just died, alas. The gardener sighed, "She doesn't come to fetch the flowers, but she sees that I often clean up this thing alone, so she often comes to help me." ”
Jia Xuan only began to pick up the inextricable threads a little at this time, and he was in a good mood, so he asked Zheng Tiezhu's family to give the gardener a piece of silver.
The money Jia Xuan spent at the moment was all earned by himself.
During the New Year's holidays, the Zhongshun Palace, the Jinxiang Marquis Mansion and the Feng General's Mansion always sent her valuable objects, jewelry, and all kinds of silver and gold bills for various reasons.
Of course, the relationship between the Zhongshun Mansion and the Jia Mansion is not good, and when she is given things, she is given in the name of the Jinxiang Marquis Mansion.
But no matter what Feng and Hong's family gave her, the Jia family couldn't detain her, so they all sat in her own small vault.
Now she has a lot of jewelry and silver money on hand, and the reward is her own small treasury, and she doesn't rely on Jiafu at all.
After the gardener left, she was thinking about what reason she could use to go to the grandmother's place and talk to that Momei. As soon as this thought came to mind, I heard someone come to say: "Miss Xuan, Miss Momei next to the eldest grandmother came to look for you." It has something to do with the bottle of ointment you gave to Cuixiang. ”
Jia Xuan couldn't help but be happy when he heard it.
The bottle of medicine she gave to Cuixiang must be effective, not because the medicine given by her mother is symptomatic, but because she mixed it with materials that can treat the bite marks of the red scorpion Gu.
The reason why she deliberately asked Zheng Tiezhu's family to ask Zhu's mother for medicine, and asked the maid to deliver medicine while Aunt Liu was seeing the other two aunts, was actually to reveal to the Gu master or people related to him that she had given her the effective medicine for treating Cuixiang's scars.
After all, the Red Scorpion Gu had toxins all over its body. An ointment that can remove toxins from the wound is not something that ordinary people can prepare. You have to be a Gu Master, and you have to be proficient in this way to do it.
In order to ensure thoroughness, Jia Xuan deliberately prepared in parallel on both sides.
I never thought that both sides were aimed at the same person, and I obediently took the initiative to send it to the door.
