Chapter 35 Contact

Before leaving, Chen Yutian had instructed Xuan Xi to do three things. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In addition to looking for the official bank robbery file twenty years ago and retrieving Fang Meng's treasury files in the ministry, he asked Lu Lao about the person who had a lot of money.

After all, Qian Youliang's wife has a silver hairpin made by Lu Lao, which shows that she has a close relationship with Lu Lao, so Lu Lao is very likely to know that Qian Youliang is a person on weekdays.

However, seeing Lu Lao like this at this moment, Xuan Xi hesitated.

She didn't know whether she should tell Lu Lao about Liu Ruoyun's death......

Lu Lao looked at her embarrassed appearance, and had already guessed seven or eight points in his heart, so he sighed, "It's okay, you can say it!"

Xuan Xi sighed slowly.

"She's dead. ”

Just three words, no other words.

"That's ......"

Lu Lao held the silver hairpin in his hand and was silent for a long time, and said slowly.

Xuan Xi nodded, she didn't say the specific death of the Qian family, but this is enough.

"Sit down!"

Lu Lao held the hairpin in his hand, was silent for a long time, and sat on the stone bench on the side.

Xuan Xi sat down obediently.

"What do you want to ask? ”

Lu Lao poured a glass of wine and gently raised his glass to drink.

"Huh?"

Xuan Xi looked at Lu Lao curiously, "Grandpa, how do you know that I have something to ask?"

"Huh...... I've heard your master say that you and Yutian went to Lingshui County, and you also solved the strange case of tiger painting there, you are really a hero!!" Lu Lao exclaimed.

Xuan Xiqiao's face was slightly red and she stuck out her tongue.

"So, when you came to me this time, you should also be investigating some case, right? So, if you have any questions, just ask, it's okay. ”

Lu Lao smiled lightly.

"Good!"

Xuan Xi nodded: "Grandpa, do you know that Liu Ruoyun has a lot of money?"

Hearing Qian Youliang's name, a touch of coldness swelled in Lu Lao's eyes, "You know, what's wrong with him?" Or is he the murderer of Ruoyun?"

"No, it's not. ”

Xuan Xi hurriedly shook his head, waved his hand and said, "Actually, Qian Youliang is also one of the deceased in this case, the reason why Senior Brother Yutian asked me to ask you about his personality is to see if there is a murderer among his enemies." ”

"I see!" Lu Lao nodded.

"Actually, I don't know this person very well, after all, I've only met a few times. However, he had a very bad reputation among the merchants in the capital, and I heard that he was a profiteer. Lu Lao said, with a coldness in his eyes.

It seems that he doesn't want to see this person with a lot of money!

Indeed, he didn't have a good impression of Qian Youliang, and even Liu Ruoyun's marriage was opposed.

However, after all, he is just an outsider, and Lu Lao can't really obstruct this marriage.

However, this also made him have a lot of money and have no good feelings.

"That's right. ”

Xuan Xi seemed to think of something, and asked, "Liu Ruoyun's own family should be the Liu family that once saved your grandfather, right?"

"yes. Lu Lao nodded.

Xuan Xi also nodded, she had heard a long time ago that Lu Lao was injured by his old enemy when he was young, and his life was on the verge of death, but fortunately, he was saved by a person surnamed Liu.

Unexpectedly, this person surnamed Liu is Liu Ruoyun's family.

"However, isn't the Liu family wealthy, why do you want to marry your daughter to someone like Qian Youliang?" Xuan Xi was puzzled.

At that time, he used his own strength to curb the Liu family's business, so that the Liu family's business stagnated, and he had to solve the crisis by marrying a daughter. ”

Lu Lao sighed, and the coldness in his eyes became more and more intense.

"I see......"

Xuan Xi nodded, no wonder Lu Lao didn't wait to see that there was a lot of money, isn't this a forced marriage?

"That's right!"

However, at this moment, suddenly, a trace of essence flashed in Xuan Xi's eyes.

"You just said that Qian Youliang was born poor, do you know that he is from there?"

"He seems to be from Qingzhou, which county in Qingzhou is from...... White...... Bai ......" Lu Lao touched his beard and thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't remember what else was behind "Bai".

"Baishan County?!" Xuan Xi reminded.

"Hey, yes, that's the name of the county!" Lu Lao stroked his palm and laughed.

But Xuan Xi was stunned.

Qian Youliang is also from Baishan County, Qingzhou? What's going on?

......

......

"What? Do you know who that 'Mansan' is?"

In the second hall of Baishan County County, Bai Fan looked surprised and looked at Zhang Yi in front of him.

Zhang Yi nodded: "Yes, my lord, I already know." ”

Chen Yutian was also quite surprised, and said, "Let's hear it." ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Yi responded: "My lord, I was ordered to investigate Li Xian's neighbors, but no one knew what the true name of this Wansan was, at this moment, under the reminder of Master Lin, I suddenly remembered someone. ”

"This person's name is Lin Rujin, and he has been a county official in the county government for thirty years, maybe he will know who this Wansan's real name is. Zhang Yi said, describing the situation to the two in detail......

"Wan San?!" the old county Cheng was slightly surprised when he heard this.

Zhang Yi nodded and said, "Exactly." Old man, do you know who the person in this county was nicknamed this twenty years ago?"

Lao Xiancheng stroked his beard and thought about it, and repeated softly: "Wan San, Wan San ......"

"Does the old man have an impression?" Zhang Yi's eyes flashed.

The old county man said slowly: "If you say that twenty years ago, there seemed to be only one person in the county who was nicknamed 'Wansan', and this person was quite friendly with the county order at that time. ”

"What's that person's name?" Zhang Yi hurriedly asked.

The old county smiled slowly: "This person, you have seen it in the past few days." ”

"Oh?"

Zhang Yi was shocked, and carefully recalled the people he had seen in the past few days, if there were people surnamed Wan among them......

Thinking about it, Zhang Yi's eyes suddenly flashed.

"Is it ......?"

Lao Xiancheng nodded and smiled faintly: "It is Wanfang'an who died a few days ago!!"

After hearing Zhang Yi's description, everyone was slightly taken aback.

"You mean...... Wan San, who was good friends with Li Xian twenty years ago, is Wan Fang'an?" After a long time, Chen Yutian broke the silence and asked slowly.

"Yes. Zhang Yi nodded.

"Moreover, Li Xian, Wan Fangan, is still friendly with the county order of the year?" Bai Fan asked, looking quite surprised.

"Yes. ”

"Who was the county commander back then?" asked Chen Yutian again.

Zhang Yi said: "I also asked Lao Xiancheng this question. He said that the original county order was Fang Meng, the servant of the Criminal Department who died a few days ago. ”

"What?!"

The two were taken aback again!!

After a long time, Chen Yutian slowly exhaled and nodded slightly: "I see, so we can get in touch." ”

"yes!"

Bai Fan nodded and smiled slightly: "In this way, the case of Li Xian back then and the case of the murder of Fang and Meng are connected to the ......."

"Not bad!"

Chen Yutian also nodded and said, "Moreover, there is also an identical item on their bodies, Guanyin." ”

"If the official silver in the scene of Wan Fangan and Fang Meng is alluding to the official silver robbery twenty years ago, then these three people should all have something to do with the official silver robbery, right?"

"Not bad!"

Chen Yutian nodded and groaned slightly.

"I just don't know, what does these three people have to do with the official bank robbery?"

Just thinking about it, there was a sudden sound of wings flapping outside the courtyard, and everyone looked back, and saw the carrier pigeon that had been snow-white fluttering its wings and flying into the hall and landing on Chen Yutian's hand.

Chen Yutian smiled slightly, and then took down the letter tied to the pigeon's leg.

"But Her Royal Highness the Princess's flying pigeon has passed the book?" Bai Fan asked.

Chen Yutian nodded, opened the letter in his hand, and only glanced at it, a hint of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes, and then his expression suddenly became strange.

......

......

In the Imperial Palace, a well-decorated palace, Xuan Xi was listening carefully to the report of a guard.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, the matter of your humble duty investigation has been fully investigated. The guard bowed his hand to Xuan Xi lightly and spoke.

Xuan Xi nodded and said, "Say." ”

"That amount of money is indeed a native of Baishan County, Qingzhou, 20 years ago came to the capital alone to start from scratch, I heard that he has been prosperous in less than a year, not only in the east and west of the city has a few shops, but also bought real estate, changed the household registration, completely become a Beijing person. The guards reported.

"Oh?"

After hearing this, Xuan Xi groaned and muttered to himself: "An ordinary person from Baishan County, Qingzhou, has several shops in the capital in less than a year, and even bought real estate and changed his household registration...... I always feel a little strange about this......"

"Definitely. ”

The guard nodded: "I also think it's strange to be lowly, even if this person is really a genius in the business field, where does the cost of starting business come from?"

"What's wrong with his business?" asked Xuan Xi.

The guard shook his head: "No problem. It's all legitimate business. ”

"In this way, it can rule out the possibility of him doing a business without capital......

Xuan Xi paced around the room, pondering carefully: "Then, where did he get the cost of doing business in the first place? The capital is not like the place, and it definitely takes a lot of financial resources to buy a storefront, where did he get such a large sum of money?"

"This is indeed strange. Xuan Xi muttered, his eyes showing confusion.

At this moment, a figure suddenly came slowly pacing at the palace gate, with a long sword in green clothes and a calm face, it was Long Zun!

"Master, why are you here?"

Xuan Xi opened his mouth and looked at Long Zun strangely.

Long Zun's gaze swept slightly over the guard's body and did not speak.

Xuan Xi looked at the guard, waved his hand lightly, and ordered him to retreat, and the guard bowed with his fists and bowed, leaving without mentioning it.

"Xi'er, you should be leaving the palace soon, right?" Long Zun watched the guards leave, and then glanced at Xuan Xi again, and said.

"Yes. Tomorrow I will go to apply with the imperial brother and go out of the palace to Baishui County. Xuan Xi replied.

And so it was. ”

Long Zun nodded slightly, "Then tomorrow, the teacher will be waiting for you at the gate of the palace." ”

After speaking, he left by himself, leaving Xuan Xi completely stunned.

Miscellaneous...... Wait for me at the palace gate tomorrow?!

Could it be ...... Master, he's also going to Baishan County?!
