Chapter 138, [On the Water Side] The Great Crisis

What kind of person is it that does not hesitate to take human lives against [on the water side]?

The biggest clue at the moment is the replica belly pocket.

Secondly, the killer was very aware that there were several brothels that were customers of [on the water side].

Third, the murderer was the first to kill Xiao Xuan, in other words, when Xiao Xuan went to [on the water side] or Shen Qi went to Yuchun Tower and Yuxiang Building, the murderer was watching somewhere.

In addition, the murderer had no other way to get the news that Yuchun Lou and Yuxiang Lou were customers of [on the water side].

Even if there are women who have ever made trouble [on the water side].

But according to Shen Qi's recollection, the woman did not name Yuchun Lou or Yuxiang Lou.

Fourth, Xiao Xuan has actually only been to [On the Water Side] twice. Shen Qi has been to Yuchun Building and Yuxiang Building once.

"But the women who buy our belly pockets are not just these prostitutes? Many women buy our belly pockets. Shen Qi asked a little puzzled.

"Maybe......" Tang Zongjiu paused and said, "The murderer thinks that the life of a prostitute is low, and he doesn't dare to touch a woman from a good family." ”

After listening to Tang Zongjiu's analysis, Shen Qi nodded in agreement.

Peng Liangbin opened his mouth, unable to say even a word for a while.

It was the most comprehensive analysis he'd ever heard.

After digesting it for a while, he spoke, "Next...... Keep in mind the lower officials. ”

"Does anyone above you know?" Shen Qi asked.

"The lowly office has been presented." Peng Liangbin said respectfully, "Master Wei will be here soon." ”

Lord Wei is Wei Zhiyuan, Xu Jing's subordinate, and Peng Liangbin's superior.

Shen Qi and Wei Zhiyuan had a one-sided relationship, so he had some impressions in his heart.

"Then let's go first, and tell me any clues at any time." Shen Qi said.

Peng Liangbin immediately bent down: "Xiaguan respectfully sends Her Royal Highness the princess and the concubine." ”

"Peng Liangbin." Shen Qi looked at Peng Liangbin's lowered head and called.

"The lower official is here." Peng Liangbin responded.

"No matter how cheap a prostitute is, she is still a human being." Shen Qi said word by word, "Since it is human life, you must pay for it with your life." Not to mention three lives. ”

"Remember." Peng Liangbin's waist bent down a few inches.

Here, Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu left the yamen, and before they returned to the [On the Water Side], they saw a long queue at the door.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

"It's back!"

"It's just right to be back, return the return, I want to return it!"

"If you don't return it, your life will be gone!"

Seeing the figures of Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu, everyone ran from the gate of [On the Water Side] to the two of them.

Shen Qi frowned and stood still without moving.

Tang Zongjiu took a step forward.

Shen Yi, Shen Er, Shen San, and three figures stood in front of Tang Zongjiu.

Everyone didn't see clearly where these three people came from, but they suddenly remembered that this Tang Gongzi was the leader of the Dragon Head Festival!

Can the Tang family have any martial arts?

Thinking of this, the people running in front of them stopped one after another.

"You...... What do you want to do?! Someone in the crowd asked.

"What do you want to do?" Shen Qi asked rhetorically.

"I ...... We're just here to unwrap our clothes. ”

"Since it's a return of clothes, why don't you line up to return the clothes [on the water side] and rush to me?" Shen Qi said coldly.

"I'm afraid you won't admit it!"

"Yes, you have all entered the yamen, in case you are locked up, who will we ask to return the goods?"

"We don't want to be bothered by you."

In a cacophony, Shen Qi used a trace of internal force to speak.

"It's okay to return the goods, first of all, I want to state that since my husband and wife came out of the yamen safely, it means that we have no suspicion.

Secondly, this time it is obviously aimed at our Tang Mansion and [on the water side]. The other party wants us to retreat, but the method is extremely bad, and we will definitely settle this account.

Third, all guests who return the goods today and want to buy clothes from [on the water side] in the future will buy them all at the original price, and they will not enjoy the slightest discount on the [water side].

Fourth, only the belly pocket is returned, and the rest of the clothes will not be returned unless it is a real quality problem. If it has been damaged, it will not be returned, and it will be refunded if it has been worn for some time, and if it has been worn for a few days, it will be refunded eighty percent, and it will be refunded in full after inspection. ”

Shen Qi spoke sonorously, and with her firm eyes, she swept over everyone in front of her.

"If these situations are thought out clearly, then you will ask one by one to come [on the water side], pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, of course, I will have people write down everyone's names in case anyone disagrees."

Shen Qi's words basically took all aspects of the situation into account, which was reasonable and well-founded.

Many people thought about it carefully and were ready to give up.

How simple is it to return all the goods in one go?

And many of them return their clothes, not their belly pockets.

How good the belly pocket is [on the water side], who uses it knows.

If it weren't for this incident, the belly pocket alone would be enough to be a household name in the north.

But what happened was the belly pocket.

For a moment, everyone fell into hesitation.

Shen Qi sneered: "Then I'm waiting for everyone on the [water side]." ”

With that, she disappeared from everyone's sight.

Back on the [On the Water Side], Shen Qi noticed Su Fang crying in a corner on the first floor at first sight.

What is Su Fang's status in the princess's mansion?

In the past, who was not a Su girl, even if Cao Guanping and Su Fang talked, they all carried a trace of the love of the elders for the younger generations.

"What's wrong?" Shen Qi stepped forward and asked.

Su Fang saw her young lady, suppressed her crying, shook her head, and said that it was nothing.

Shen Qi glanced at Tang Yu, and Tang Yu also shook his head and said he didn't know.

She rolled her eyes at Tang Yu.

Tang Yu was stunned, what did he do to be so inexplicably rolled his eyes by his master?

Tang Yu looked at Tang Zongjiu in confusion.

"Idiot." Tang Zongjiu didn't bother to pay attention to him, but followed behind Shen Qi.

Tang Yu: ???

For Shen Qi, Su Fang has been a friendship since childhood, and with Tang Yu's stupid appearance, Shen Qi is absolutely not at ease about handing over his palms to him.

Shen Qi also chose to ignore Tang Yu.

She pulled a handkerchief from her bosom.

"The people of my princess's mansion have never been bullied." Shen Qi gently sucked the silk handkerchief on Su Fang's crying face, "Don't be afraid of causing me trouble." ”

"I didn't ...... There is no ......," Su Fang whispered.

Shen Qi narrowed his eyes and asked the people around him, "Where is Su Fang going to deliver clothes today?" ”

Mama Li thought for a while and replied, "It seems to be Caofu." ”

At the mention of the word Cao Fu, Su Fang subconsciously tensed.

"Cao Mansion?" Shen Qi asked.

"It seems to be an outsider surnamed Cao." Mama Li replied.

Shen Qi remembered the man who was almost blinded in one eye by Tang Zong's wine.

During this time, there were indeed a lot of goods to be delivered [on the water side], and Shen Qi didn't have time to look at them one by one.

"Fangfang, what's wrong?"
