The fleeting figure she saw in the teahouse came to her mind again.
It was him. He must have been disguised at that time, and she didn't recognize it for a moment.
It was him, the traitor whom she didn't want to name.
Although he seemed to have nothing to do with Fengxiang's affairs in her previous life, she began to have doubts after meeting Mr. Zhang, and she wanted to confirm her suspicions.
That's why she came here after catching Mr. Xu San and finding the tax money. If Mr. Zhang did anything, she would catch him.
Everything was considered carefully except for him.
She became alert because of various events in her past life.
What is he doing for?
Standing on the lush mountaintop, you can clearly see the entire official road.
She set up a big net here, but he stood at a high place and had a panoramic view of her every move.
Song Chengxuan's methods were ruthless and forceful, and he killed countless people. Those who plot against him will definitely not end well.
That year he became powerful in the court and became the target of everyone's attraction. The Queen Mother's mother's family, the He family, and the eldest princess all wanted to make him a son-in-law.
As a result, the two sides started fighting privately, and both sides suffered a lot.
The trouble finally reached the emperor, who summoned Song Chengxuan to ask what he meant.
In the court hall, he answered simply: "I would like to be fat or thin, but I would like to ask the emperor to first relinquish my military power so that I can avoid the pain of war.
Otherwise, I won’t have time to sleep with them.”
Both the He family and the eldest princess were humiliated, but both sides believed that the other party was pressing harder and harder to achieve the current result. The He family was finally caught by the royal family, and her power was not as strong as before. The Queen Mother suffered greatly.
Song Chengxuan saw the opportunity and restricted Cining Palace.
She watched the good show from the side and watched the Queen Mother's expression change again and again with her own eyes.
Song Chengxuan stood outside the curtain, greeting the Queen Mother, with a faint smile on his lips.
A person who even wants to take advantage of his own marriage will really do anything to achieve his goal.
If it were Song Chengxuan who harmed her father and took advantage of Mr. Xu San, she would find it reasonable.
The enemy from his previous life might be right in front of him, and he thought she had lost this round, and she wouldn't let him feel relaxed.
"If Mr. Wu Qian wants it, just take it. The county magistrate doesn't have to argue anymore."
Hearing Miss Xu's voice, the county magistrate couldn't help but feel cold in his heart.
Mr. Wu Qian turned his head following the voice. At some point, the slender figure had already arrived in front of the horse. With a wave of the knife in his hand, he cut off a knot and gently pulled the knot that bound the silver box.
The rope was immediately released, and the box fell to the ground. Then she adjusted her clothes, slowly sat on the box, and raised her face to look at him.
Mr. Wu Qian couldn't help but look surprised and his eyelids twitched. He suddenly felt that before he went out today, he really should test his luck.
"How can such a big case be handled with just the government's manpower," Xu Qinghuan said slowly, "Thanks to Mr. Wu being here."
Mr. Wu Qian's bad feeling just now was gone, and there was a little more smile in his eyes.
The county magistrate's face turned even uglier.
Xu Qinghuan continued: "Master Wu should know about the battle in Fengxiang more than ten years ago, right? This is the tax money and treasures hidden by the people who colluded with the traitor Zhao Chong. This matter is not a trivial matter. The entire Fengxiang Mansion has devoted all its efforts to bring it down."
The suspect was caught, but..."
The county magistrate kept nodding aside.
If Feng Chu had a handful of millet in her hand, she would definitely scatter it in front of the county magistrate.
Mr. Wu Qian couldn't help but ask: "Just what?"
Xu Qinghuan sighed: "I'm afraid there are still remnants of the party on the run. We set up an ambush here to catch them all. Just now... we finally found the hiding place of the remaining party. Unfortunately, we are short of manpower and can't do anything about this matter. Unexpectedly
Mr. Qian bumped into me."
Mr. Wu Qian couldn't help but touch his nose. He always felt that the word "bump" was added to it, which made him feel a little painful. Miss Xu's clear eyes as clear as ink fell on him.
"With strong soldiers and horses, I will be able to capture the enemy in one fell swoop," Xu Qinghuan's voice was clear, "The money is placed here. No one will touch it until you return. We are waiting for your good news."
President Wu Qian's face tightened: "The Yu Dang you are talking about..."
Xu Qinghuan nodded: "It is the responsibility of the government to catch the murderer. To catch the traitor, we should rely on the local defense."
The county magistrate's eyes lit up. What Miss Anyi Houfu said was absolutely correct. Why didn't he think of this? Killing the traitors was not their responsibility in the first place. He couldn't help but shed tears of gratitude to Miss Xu.
"Lord County Magistrate," Xu Qinghuan said, "could you please lead someone to follow Mr. Wu Qian to capture the remaining party members."
President Wu Qian felt his lips were a little dry: "Where is the remaining party you mentioned?"
Xu Qinghuan raised his hand and pointed to the mountain not far away: "Wherever you can overlook this official road, those people will be hiding here."
Mr. Wu Qian was slightly startled.
"If we delay any longer, I'm afraid the person will escape. Don't worry, Mr. Wu Qian, my calculation is correct, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten the money."
"Yes, yes," the county magistrate agreed, "Quickly, let's go catch them."
The government officials have been gathered and followed the county magistrate to the mountain. If they don't take action, they may be held responsible in the future. President Wu Qian said in a deep voice: "First untie the box, and we will follow the government officials to get the person."
…
Seeing the Yamen and a group of people approaching this way.
Master Zhang couldn't help but said: "This girl actually guessed that we are here."
Song Chengxuan said: "She knew it a long time ago, but she was careless just now." He didn't pay attention to the appearance of the face peeking out from the teahouse. He only vaguely remembered an outline, but he could see the eyes clearly.
Master Zhang was a little surprised.
Song Chengxuan said: "I will see Wu Quan later and ask him to go to Minzhou to guard the pass. As long as he can win this battle and break the deadlock, General Fengxiang will not dare to neglect the fight."
Zhang Zhenren said: "The money..."
Song Chengxuan said: "It will take more than a month to close the case. Wu Quan won the battle, so he can naturally ask for money."
Wu Quan has money.
"What about me?" Mr. Zhang wanted to cry, "I promised everyone that I would buy a big fat pig..."
"You lose." Song Chengxuan got on his horse.
…
Mr. Wu Qian led the people away, and Xu Qinghuan stood up and looked at the remaining servants: "Do you want to wait until Mr. Wu Qian comes back to get the money?"
Everyone woke up from a dream and immediately loaded the money into the car.
"Miss, can they catch someone?" Feng Chu heard that there would be a lot of delicious food at the imperial court's celebration banquet.
"Of course... we can't catch it."
If Song Chengxuan was really there, he must have already thought about how to escape, and he would not fall into her hands so easily.
Xu Qinghuan mounted his horse and moved forward.
The money is first sent to the nearest yamen in the city.
Seeing the last box of silver being moved into the Yamen, Mr. Wu Qian wiped the sweat from his forehead, frowned and looked at Xu Qinghuan: "Didn't the eldest lady say she would wait for us to come back?"
"How can I count what I said casually?" Xu Qinghuan said, bending down and getting on the carriage.
A group of people were left to complain.
Mr. Xu San was escorted to Fengxiang, and she had to go back and explain everything to Mr. Wang Yun.
The carriage was galloping down the street, a gust of wind blew, and the curtains of the carriage jumped up slightly.
Xu Qinghuan saw a face that was clearly unfamiliar, but yet made her feel familiar.
"Are you the eldest lady of the Anyi Marquis Mansion?" A person outside the carriage asked, "I am the steward of the Guangping Marquis Mansion. I have something to give to the eldest lady."
