Regarding Min Cunxi's naked threat, Xu Doulian couldn't do anything.

He handed the chopsticks to him and said, "Eat first, eat first." ”

Taking the chopsticks, Min Cunxi smiled: "That's right." ”

Picking up a piece of meat and putting it in his mouth, Min Cunxi chewed it exaggeratedly, widened his eyes and praised: "Hmm~ It's really delicious, no wonder the outsiders have fallen." ”

Glancing at Min Cunxi, Xu Doulian didn't say anything, after all, he had to ask for help, so he could only endure it.

picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it vigorously as if it were Min Cunxi.

"But the meat is really delicious. Xu Doulian said in his heart.

was about to clip another piece, but found that it had been eaten by Min Cunxi.

"You leave some for me!" Xu Doulian said, adding two more pieces to the bowl.

Min Cunxi's mouth was stuffed to the brim, and he said vaguely: "You eat and eat, don't take it." ”

Having said that, he also put two pieces into his bowl.

Under the scramble between the two, a plate of meat was quickly eaten and it was time for the next dish.

After eating all the food on the table, Min Cunxi smacked his lips and said, "The food is really good, but it's a pity that the amount is a little too small to eat." ”

Xu Doulian poured a cup of tea and sent it to Min Cunxi and said, "After all, what she made is my own amount, come to my house at night, and let you eat enough." Now can you tell me about the marriage proposal for me?"

After taking a sip of tea and sighing with satisfaction, Min Cunxi said: "Don't worry, you have entered the Ministry of Industry and the first time, and it has been seven years now. ”

"That's good, but don't worry, I have to see if Xiuying has this idea, I can't press down with a holy decree and force her to marry me. Xu Doulian breathed a sigh of relief.

Min Cunxi nodded and said, "Yes, you just ask tonight, settle down earlier, and your heart will be at peace." ”

Xu Doulian hugged his fists and said: "If this matter can be done, there will be heavy thanks at that time." ”

Min Cunxi put the teacup on the table and said, "What to talk about, thank you, if it happens, just let me rub the rice more." ”

Xu Doulian laughed and said, "Okay, as long as Lord Min wants to eat at that time, tell me, and the house will definitely add you a pair of dishes and chopsticks." ”

Min Cunxi said: "It's settled, you are not allowed to go back." ”

"Never go back!" Xu Doulian patted his chest.

In Qin Tianjian, Commander Fu Wei, who got Wen Xiuying's information, handed over the information to Shen Congrong.

"Sir, it's been checked, it's all inside. After handing over the information, Commander Fu Wei stepped aside and said.

Shen calmly opened Wen Xiuying's information, the first page was Wen Xiuying's portrait, looking at the portrait, Shen calmly praised: "It's really a beauty, with this appearance, it can indeed attract people." ”

After reading Wen Xiuying's information from beginning to end, Shen Congrong already had a basic understanding of Wen Xiuying's information.

Wen Xiuying, a native of Guankou Camp, is 20 years old, her parents died early, she lives alone in her ancestral house, she makes a living by sewing and mending pulp and washing, her neighborhood is harmonious, and she has never left Guankou Camp.

Closing the record book, Shen Congrong leaned back in his chair and said: "In the records of the household department, Wen Xiuying has never left the pass camp, but she is now in the capital, and she can still be driven to the construction site by the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion to deliver food to Xu Doulian, when was this record updated?"

Fu Wei said, "It was just updated at the beginning of the month. ”

"At the beginning of the month?" Shen Congrong counted the time and said: "Today is September 11, which means that this information has been updated for eleven days, so she must have arrived in the capital after the information was updated." When she arrived in the capital, the information was not updated, indicating that after she arrived in the capital, she went directly to Xu Doulian's house, and she didn't have time to register. ”

After listening to Shen Congrong's analysis, Shen Wuci on the side said to Commander Fu Wei: "In this way, you personally go to the pass camp to check when and why this Wen Xiuying left." Let someone check Xu Doulian's itinerary in the last few days to see how Wen Xiuying got on with Xu Doulian. ”

"Yes. "Commander Fu Wei took the order and went down.

After Commander Fu Wei left, Shen calmly asked, "Uncle thinks, will there be any problems with this Wen Xiuying?"

Shen Wuci said: "She has lived alone in the Guankou camp for so long, with a harmonious neighborhood and a stable income, so there is no situation where she is forced to come to the capital. In this case, she was supposed to continue living in the Guankou camp, but she appeared in the capital, and she happened to have a relationship with Xu Doulian, who was responsible for taking over the construction of the altar of the ceremony. And all this, there is no update from the household, apparently in the last day or two, the possibility of her problem is too great. However, we should not act on assumptions alone, and it is better to investigate clearly. ”

Shen calmly nodded and said, "That's how it should be." However, judging from the previous report by Fu Wei, when Wen Xiuying delivered the food to the construction site, Min Cunxi was also there, and he seemed to be a little familiar, I thought, when they came back from work today, they would call Min Cunxi to ask. ”

Shen Wuci thought for a while and said, "Yes, Min Cunxi and Xu Doulian are close friends, and he will definitely know no less." Moreover, if there is a problem with this Wen Xiuying, it will be more convenient for him to do an in-depth investigation. ”

"Okay, then it's decided, they are getting off work, just waiting for Pan Sheng to come back, and they can let Pan Sheng go and pick up Min Cunxi. Shen calmly looked at their worksheets.

Not correct, Guankou Battalion.

Pan Sheng dressed up as an ordinary farmer and turned into an inconspicuous small courtyard, where people were sitting and resting, and one of them was Yu Wen.

Seeing Pan Sheng, several people hurriedly stopped chatting, stood up and saluted: "Commander." ”

Pan Sheng nodded and motioned for them to sit down, pulled a stool and sat down and said, "You have been in the pass camp for a long time, and you know all the people here, right?"

"Of course I do. Several people nodded repeatedly.

Pan Sheng said: "That's good, there is a woman named Wen Xiuying in the Guankou camp, who of you knows?"

Hearing Pan Sheng ask about Wen Xiuying, Yu Wen preemptively said: "Back to the commander, I know that she is the person I am responsible for in the region." ”

"You know?" Pan Sheng glanced at Yu Wen, and then said, "Okay, then you tell me about this person, as well as her recent situation and movements." ”

Yu Wen thought for a while and said: "Wen Xiuying, who lives in the innermost part of Langning Lane, Xiuning Street, is twenty years old this year, and her parents died early......

Pan Sheng stopped him and said: "I know all the information you said, let's talk about what I don't know, her daily actions." ”

"Oh. Yu Wen scratched his head and said: "She usually takes on some sewing and pulp washing work, most of which are introduced by neighbors, and are usually sent to her house, and I saw her go out of the village to the direction of the capital when I was patrolling yesterday afternoon."

Because she didn't have anything with her at the time, I thought she might be shopping or something, so I didn't particularly care. However, it seems that he has not been back until noon today.

Because I was patrolling in the morning, when I came back at noon, I passed by Longning Lane, and saw someone knocking on her door, so I asked, saying that the clothes sent had been sent for two days, and I came to pick them up today, but no matter how I knocked on the door, no one opened it, and the door was locked. ”

From Yu Wen's words, Pan Sheng got the exact time when Wen Xiuying left, so he stood up and said, "Okay, I know, continue to do your thing." ”

After speaking, Pan Sheng left this stronghold and walked towards Xiuning Street, he still had to confirm whether there was anything valuable left in Wen Xiuying's home.

After Pan Sheng left, another Fu Wei asked Yu Wen: "That Pan Xiuying, who is sacred, who can provoke the commander to come and investigate in person?"

Yu Wen shook his head and said: "How do I know, it doesn't look special on weekdays, just an ordinary single woman, who knows how she attracted the commander to investigate." Hey, what's the matter with so much, the commander personally went out, and it has nothing to do with us if something happens, what the hell are you doing, where did you just go?"

The other Fu Wei thought about it and regained his conversation, and the two continued to chat, enjoying the time of rest.

In Longning Lane, Pan Sheng walked straight along the alley and came to the door of Wen Xiuying's house, which was located in the deepest part of the alley.

Looking at the closed door, the door was locked.

Pan Sheng looked left and right, and after confirming that there was no one, he directly kicked the wall and jumped into the courtyard.

There was nothing special in the yard, only seven or eight shelves, full of clothes and sheets, and so on, which must have been sent to her by neighbors to be washed.

After checking room by room, Pan Sheng found that her house had been rummaged through again, and that the documents were no longer in the house, and other gold and silver belongings were still stored in the house.

I roughly counted about a dozen silver bills, about six taels, and eight pennies.

In addition to these gold and silver belongings, Pan Sheng also found an account book detailing Wen Xiuying's daily income and expenses, all the people who sent clothes, bed sheets, etc., and the date they came to retrieve them.

Judging from this account book, in addition to the more than six taels of silver and eight hanging coins, Wen Xiuying still has half a hanging money in her hand, and the clothes drying in the courtyard are also just sent two days ago and are scheduled to be returned today.

In other words, Wen Xiuying only took half a penny to the capital, met Xu Doulian in a short period of time, and went to the construction site to deliver food at noon today, with no sign of returning, as if she had suddenly abandoned here.

Pan Sheng keenly sensed that there must be something wrong with this, but he couldn't figure it out, so he took the ledger and the remaining silver and other things, and climbed over the wall to leave Wen Xiuying's house.

Standing in front of Wen Xiuying's door, looking at the other people in the alley, Pan Sheng still felt that it was better to ask them what they thought of Wen Xiuying, maybe they knew why Wen Xiuying left suddenly.

Knocking on a neighbor's door, a woman came out of it and asked, "Are you?"

Pan Sheng said with a smile: "I am Wen Xiuying's distant relative, my name is Wen An, I am here to pick up Wen Xiuying's family to go back to live, my father said that he remembered Wen Xiuying and their house is in the innermost part of this alley, but I see that there is a lock on the door, have their families gone out?"

The woman said: "Hey, what are you going out of, Xiuying's father, she left when she was twelve years old, leaving such a house and some money, and only Xiuying lives alone." She would have told us before she went out, and I didn't see her today to say that she was going out. ”

Pan Sheng sighed and said: "But I see that there is a lock on her door, and no one answers when she knocks on the door, obviously she is not at home." ”

The woman was a little puzzled and said: "I should go to buy vegetables, she goes fast when the amount is not large, so sometimes she doesn't tell us, so let's do it, you come and sit down first, drink a cup of tea and wait for a while, maybe, she will come back in a while." ”

With that, the woman let Pan Sheng in.

Guiding Pan Sheng into the house, the woman pointed to the chair and said, "You sit down first, and I'll make you a pot of tea." ”

Pan Shenggang wanted to say no, but the woman continued: "We, we have always treated Xiuying as our sister and daughter, and you don't see each other." ”

Since the woman said so, Pan Sheng naturally couldn't refuse, so he could only nod a little embarrassedly: "Then it's hard work, big sister." ”

Soon, the woman returned with a large pot of tea and several large tea bowls.

Poured a large bowl of tea and put it in front of Pan Sheng, and the woman said, "Don't dislike our tea." ”

Pan Sheng waved his hand again and again: "No, no, no." ”

As he spoke, he raised the tea bowl and took a big sip.

The woman sat down and said, "By the way, you said that you are Xiuying's distant relative, but why haven't I heard Xiuying mention it, and when Xiuying's parents died, I haven't seen any relatives in her family come over." ”

Pan Sheng put down the tea bowl and said: "That's the case, my father was separated from Xiuying's father when he was a child, and he has not had any substantive communication for so many years, only occasionally writing a letter of greetings, and then we moved home a few times and broke off contact." A few days ago, I packed up my old belongings and turned over the previous letters, which had Xiuying's address on them, and our old man thought about taking Xiuying and them over to live together, after all, the family is also rich now, so he let me come. ”

"Oh, I see. From Pan Sheng's description, the woman understood.

Pan Sheng felt that it was time to start the topic, so he asked, "By the way, eldest sister, can you tell me about Xiuying and their affairs over the years?"

The woman sighed: "Xiuying has really not been easy all these years. ”

When Wen Xiuying was twelve years old, her parents died of illness one after another, and after being buried with the help of neighbors, someone wanted to adopt her, but she did not agree and lived by her own efforts.

For this strong child, the neighbors naturally helped as much as they could, and at first she didn't accept the money she gave for food, and she had to do something to accept it. So the neighbors asked her to wash some clothes and something, and gave her some payment.

In the following time, Wen Xiuying also learned to do sewing and embroidery, read some books, learned to read and keep accounts, and gradually did the work of sewing and washing pulp.

As Wen Xiuying gradually grew up, her appearance became more and more beautiful, and there were many people who came to propose marriage, but there were neighbors who checked it, and Wen Xiuying also had her own ideas, so she never got married until now.

After listening to the woman's narration, Pan Sheng had a further understanding of Wen Xiuying. Because of this, he felt that Wen Xiuying's departure this time was very problematic.

However, I can't figure out this kind of thing, so I'd better go back and tell Mr. Supervisor and let them have a headache.

Thinking of this, Pan Sheng said: "It turns out that Xiuying has worked so hard all these years, so I don't know if the eldest sister knows where Xiuying often goes to buy vegetables, I'll go find her, and buy her some meat to make up for it by the way." ”

The woman said, "Of course I know, there is only one market in the village, which is on Sifang Street." ”

"Okay, thank you, eldest sister, I'll go to the market to look for Xiuying, so I won't bother much. Pan Sheng said goodbye.

After some politeness, Pan Sheng finally got out, and naturally he would not go to Sifang Street, because he knew that Wen Xiuying was in the capital. Therefore, as soon as he got out of Longning Lane, Pan Sheng went to the direction of the capital.

Xu Mansion, Wen Xiuying got out of the car and saluted Xu Huaifu and said, "Thank you Steward Xu!"

Xu Huai sighed and said: "Don't thank me, I said that I won't take it as an example, fortunately, I have Lord Min to help solve the siege, you go and rest for a while, and then prepare dinner, Yuan Wailang and Master Min are coming back from work." When you were on the construction site, you also heard that Lord Min said that he was going to come to the house for dinner in the evening, so don't forget to do more. ”

"Hey, I made a note of it. Wen Xiuying answered and went down to rest.

Looking at Wen Xiuying's back trotting all the way, Xu Huai shook his head and sighed: "Wailang is really obsessed, but if it's her, it's not bad." ”

Shen Zheng and Pan Sheng returned to Qin Tianjian with the things they found from Wen Xiuying's house.

Putting the account book and silver on the table, Pan Sheng said: "I asked Fu Wei stationed in the Guankou camp, according to Yu Wen, who was in charge of patrolling the area around Wen Xiuying's residence, Wen Xiuying left the Guankou camp yesterday afternoon, and when she left, she didn't carry any obvious baggage and items, and she has not returned yet. He told me where Wen Xiuying lived, and I went to see it, and there was nothing special about it, and the yard was full of clothes and sheets, all of which had not yet been returned to the employer. I searched her house, and found that she had been rummaged through before me, and that all her household documents were gone, and the silver was still there. Judging from the ledgers and belongings left behind, when she left, she only took Hu Chun Wen and half a hanging money. ”

Shen calmly put the silver aside, opened the account book and said, "How is Wen Xiuying a person?"

Pan Shengdao: "Consistent with the records of the household, she is kind and has a harmonious neighborhood, I specially asked her neighbors, and they all said that Wen Xiuying is a very kind and gentle woman, and people often come to propose marriage, but she did not answer." They are not very clear about Wen Xiuying's departure from home and not returning, because in the past, Wen Xiuying would tell them when she went out that when she came to business, she could let them continue first, and occasionally when she went out to buy vegetables, because of the short time she went out, she would not notify them. So I thought Wen Xiuying was just going out to buy vegetables. Extrapolating from this direction, Wen Xiuying should rarely go out except for grocery shopping, and even when she goes out, she will definitely explain to her neighbors, so as not to find her when the people who come to pick up clothes or deliver clothes can't find her. ”

Shen calmly finished reading the ledger and said: "Judging from the ledger, Wen Xiuying has never delayed the delivery of clothes, and they are all delivered on time. And she stays at home all the year round and rarely goes out, let alone comes to the capital. It can be said that she has no intention of coming to the capital at all. ”

Shen Wuci on the side said: "But she just arrived in the capital, and she arrived yesterday afternoon, and today she can already be driven by the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion to the construction site to deliver food to Xu Doulian." If you want to say that there is nothing greasy in this, I'm afraid you can't say it. ”

Shen Congrong nodded and said: "That's true, it's all too fast, it doesn't match Wen Xiuying's normal activities at all, and it doesn't match Xu Doulian's performance before, I think, we need to check Xu Doulian's specific itinerary yesterday and find their intersection." ”

Pan Sheng said: "Generally, if there is no major situation, most of their daily affairs will not be recorded, and they will only record everything as usual. Moreover, the Ministry of Works is located in the inner city, which is off-limits to civilians. Yesterday's Xu Doulian, after finishing the official work of the Ministry of Works, met Wen Xiuying on the way to the Meridian Tower or on the way back to the house, and Fu Wei, who was arranged in the Xu Mansion, arrived at the Xu Mansion around last night, and at that time, Wen Xiuying should have arrived at the Xu Mansion. I will take someone to the Ministry of Industry to investigate the road to the Meridian Tower and the Meridian Tower to the Xu Mansion, and ask all the contents of last night from the mouth of Fu Wei, who was watching the Xu Mansion last night. ”

"Hmm. Pan Sheng's analysis was very reasonable, and there was no problem with the action plan formulated, Shen calmly responded: "Okay, you can go quickly." ”

"Yes. After receiving the order, Pan Sheng was about to leave.

"Wait. Stopping Pan Sheng, who was about to leave, Shen said calmly: "After the inspection, you send a Fu guard to the construction site, and when Min Cunxi and Xu Doulian are separated, let Min Cunxi come back to Qintianjian for a trip, I have something to ask him." ”

"Ordered. Pan Sheng wrote down the new content and went to arrange the action.

After Pan Sheng left, Shen Wuci said: "It seems that there is really something wrong with this Wen Xiuying. However, what I wonder about is that Wen Xiuying, who is now by Xu Doulian's side, is really the Wen Xiuying who lives in the Guankou camp?"

Shen Congrong looked at the ledger again and said: "I don't think so, the real Wen Xiuying is kind and has an excellent relationship with her neighbors, and she will tell them even when she goes out." She would never come to the capital alone, leaving behind the clothes that had not been returned in the yard, and did not notify her neighbors. ”

Shen Wuci nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, the analysis is in place, when you take over the Qin Heavenly Prison, I think I can go directly to the four seas." ”

Shen said calmly: "That's not good, without my uncle's help, I really won't be able to run this Qin Heavenly Prison." ”

Haha, Shen Wuci said: "You girl, you can actually oppress people, okay, when you can fully operate the Qin Heavenly Prison, I will leave." ”

Shen calmly smiled and didn't say anything more, she was in the bureau, and she only had ten years in the world.

Ten years later, there could be no one more able to take over the Qin Heavenly Prison than Shen Wuci, so he couldn't get out.
