Throwing Su Jinxuan, who had fallen asleep, to the bed, and after packing everything up, Gu Juan returned to the outer room, looked down at the pale red petals on his palm, felt the information contained in the petals, and was silent for a long time.

Regarding the matter of exploring a certain place, before the start of the battle of Thousand Feather Lake, Redcoat seemed to have told him once, but the battle with Re-Arrival caused her a lot of damage, and it was not until such a long time that he could find a chance to meet him.

That is, because before leaving the capital last time, he took time to check Su Jinxuan and Xu Mingyue for any traces of the existence of spirit mediums in their bodies, so he left traces of red flames and blue fire in the two of them, otherwise it would not be too easy for the red clothes to find him.

Quietly, the bloody dog flew out of the inner room, hovered around Gu Ju, hesitated for a moment, and then wrote a line of bright red handwriting on the table.

"Just now, my subordinates fell asleep unconsciously, could it be that Mrs. has already come?"

"yes, I've been here. Gu Juan didn't know what this thing was thinking, and he was still engrossed in observing the petals in his hand.

There was a muffled click, and the ugly dog was bored and spread out on the table, and suddenly he felt a little discouraged.

What a chance to pat himself on the back, but it didn't even see the face of the lady in red, so it fell asleep in a daze, and really let the great opportunity to curry favor slide gently from between the pages, leaving no trace.

"Master, madam, is she more powerful than the master?" the ugly dog thought to himself, and still asked the question he was most concerned about.

"Awesome, at least not below me, maybe a little stronger than me. He didn't seem to know how to describe it, and after a moment his eyes moved, he lifted the bright petal in his hand and placed it in the middle of the page of the ugly dog, and then took out a snow-white paper crane and placed it next to the bright petal.

"For example, sir, I'm still using text messages, and she's already able to send MMS messages now. ”

"Uh......" The ugly dog didn't even bother to brush the words, and lay it motionless, as if it had been hit hard.

................................................

Before dawn the next day, Gu Juan came out of the Guozhang Mansion, refused Su Jinxuan's request to stay him for breakfast, and only bought a flatbread and meat roll on the street, and ate it all the way directly to Tianji Mansion.

Half an hour later, he found Ziyuan, ordered a group of young warriors who had returned to the capital from the secret realm of Ye Luo, took a group of his alien subordinates, braved the storm and snow out of the north gate of the capital, and galloped north along the official road.

Before nightfall, the group had already left Beijing for hundreds of miles, and came to a city covered with ice and snow.

"This is Beicang City, an important town in northern Beijing, I still remember that there is a disciple named Wei Xiang in the secret realm, who is a person from Beicang Mansion. ”

Gu Juan reined in his horse, his eyes passed through the snowflakes flying in the sky, and landed on the tall city wall not far away, and he could vaguely see a few armor soldiers patrolling back and forth.

"Let's go, let's enter the city in batches from different directions, go first to find a place to stay, recover our strength, and by the way, we can also take a walk in it and take a turn. ”

"Put away the waist card of Tiqi for the time being, and before contacting the officials in the city as an official, it is best to find out the news on your own, which is also a test of your intelligence gathering ability. ”

"Tomorrow morning, at my order, everyone will keep the paper crane I have issued, and set it on fire in case of danger, and I will rush over to rescue you as soon as I receive it. ”

After finishing speaking, he rushed out first, and Ziyuan followed closely behind, like a pair of young chivalrous couples who traveled the rivers and lakes.

Half an hour later, Gu Juan had already washed off the dust all the way, changed into a scholar's robe, and took a folding fan quite coquettishly, and walked out of the inn in the wind and snow, and came to the most popular restaurant in the city.

Behind him, followed by Ziyuan dressed as a maid, and Han Xiong standing there like an iron tower, so that the shopkeeper knew at a glance that this person was either rich or expensive, and he walked towards the box on the second floor without saying a word.

Although it is best to find out the news in the lobby on the first floor, as soon as Gu Juan entered the door, he saw that several of his subordinates were already sitting there, chatting with people, and they all seemed to be a little unnatural after seeing him come in, so he couldn't bear to let their efforts go to waste, so he still went up to the second floor with kindness, and tasted the local specialties before anything else.

Early the next morning, he first listened to the intelligence news gathered by everyone, sorted it out, and then went directly to the county guard yamen.

In the afternoon, Gu Ju, who was full of wine and food, was sent out of the yamen by the Beicang County Guard, and under the leadership of the Tiqi counselor spies who listened to the announcement, he came directly to the vicinity of a manor with a wide area in the west of the city.

"According to the description of the adults, it should be said that it is Mu Mansion, but this place has been abandoned for a long time, and even some homeless beggars will not go in to live. ”

On his side, Liu Yu, the commander of the Beicang County Tiqi, said in a low voice, the black-on-red gold-lined official clothes on his body were meticulously cared for, and the whole person looked quite energetic.

Although the two of them are both Tiqi Qianhu, this Liu Qianhu put his posture very low, and directly classified himself as Gu Ju's subordinate, without any complaints before and after running.

He had acquaintances in Beijing, so he naturally knew that although the young Gu Qianhu in front of him had a mysterious background, he had a big face, and he could even reach the heavens, which was far from being comparable to a local official like him.

Glancing at Gu Juan's thoughtful expression, Liu Yu immediately went on to explain, obviously having done his homework in a very short time after getting the news.

"My lord, since Mu Mansion was involved in the Tsing Yi Sect to rebel and rebel, and was ordered by the old emperor to raid the house, this house has been empty, and there are wealthy businessmen who spent a lot of money to buy this manor from the imperial court, but there was a problem after not staying for too long, and the family died inexplicably one after another, and only one young girl survived in just a few days. ”

Gu Juan nodded slightly, and listened to him continue to speak.

At that time, the Beicang County Guard suspected that he was a big bully, and he was involved in a tragedy in which the family was almost wiped out, so he informed the Tiqi Town Fu Division, and stationed in the manor together with the six door catchers, preparing to investigate the matter thoroughly. ”

Liu Yu paused here when he said this, then slowly shook his head and said, "It's just that even if the case-handling masters in the entire county town are concentrated, they haven't been able to find out which housekeeper and servant are involved in this matter, and according to the old man, the wealthy merchant family seems to be disaster-free, and the cause of death is not external injury, nor poisoning, nor was it frightened to death, if you really want to speculate, it seems that a living person suddenly lost his popularity, and died without even struggling." ”

Gu Juan took a deep breath of the cool air, closed his eyes and said, "This kind of death seems to have come to the right place." ”
