Xu Qinghuan thought for a while and then said: "We will find out soon."
Xu Qing'an knew that his sister would not draw conclusions until there was clear evidence. After asking him to catch that person, he would beat that person severely to make him worse than Zhang Yuci.
Zhang Zhenren remembered something important: "Young master asked me to send news back. Now the person in charge of Huijing in the Ministry of Punishment is Li Xu."
Xu Qinghuan nodded, it must be the same, Li Xu has been following this case since Changzhou, and now he is regarded as his right-hand man by the Minister of Punishment. Only by handing Huijing to Li Xu can he feel at ease.
Zhang Zhenren continued: "Li Xu is planning to live in the Ministry of Punishment's duty room these days."
With Li Xu's intelligence, he will clearly check everyone who comes in and out of the prison. It is not easy for that person to pass Li Xu's test. Without causing some trouble, it will be difficult to achieve the goal. Xu Qinghuan said:
"What's going on over at the Li family?"
"Mrs. Li just arrived in Beijing."
Listening to Master Zhang's words, Xu Qinghuan couldn't help but smile. Mother Li, Miss Li, and Miss Yu San got together. In her previous life, Mother Li liked Miss Li and Miss Yu San, and she almost recognized Miss Yu San as her goddaughter.
The Li family all know what Miss Yu San is thinking, and Miss Li is just adding fuel to the fire.
Zhang Zhenren lowered his voice: "Miss, do you think that person will attack the Li family first?"
Maybe, Xu Qinghuan said: "Let's keep an eye on the movements in the prison. I think no matter what that person does, we can gain something."
Taoist Master Qingling and Mr. Liao were sitting together and talking. Master Zhang wanted to listen but was kicked out.
After a while, Mr. Liao came out, his face looking more relaxed than usual. Who would have thought that this trip to the capital would yield so much.
Mr. Zhang stepped forward to ask, but Mr. Liao shook his head: "Let the Taoist Priest Qingling talk about his private matters! But there is nothing to ask. Miss Xu has made it clear just now."
Zhang Zhenren thinks this is also the case. What he wants to do now is to send a letter to his junior sister. Naturally, he needs his junior brother to tell him where his junior sister is.
Xu Qingan suddenly came over and whispered: "I discovered a secret."
Master Zhang frowned. My uncle has never been reliable, but today there was something different. His eyes were as bright as a mouse that found food in the dark.
Xu Qing'an pulled Zhang Zhenren out of the yard: "Are you trying to please Taoist Priest Qingling? I think you haven't understood the situation."
Master Zhang listened carefully.
Xu Qing'an said: "Do you think Taoist Master Qingling is a little strange?"
The junior brother is naturally surprised. Among the three brothers and sisters, the junior brother is the one who advocates Taoism the most. He seems to be aloof and indifferent to others. He always does his homework on time and clearly remembers the precepts in the Taoist temple. It seems that he really wants to
Abandoning all emotions and desires to reach immortality, how could an ordinary person be like this?
"I found that Priest Qingling's waist is extremely thin," Xu Qing'an pursed his lips, "How could an ordinary man be like this?"
Master Zhang didn't expect that Xu Qing'an would mention this matter. Is his junior brother's waist very thin? Xu Qing'an stared at him with his eyes, as if he would think of something because of this.
Xu Qing'an continued: "I don't think he necessarily advocates Taoism... He has no fixed address and is avoiding you." Since following his sister to investigate the case, his thinking has become more agile and he can always find something unusual.
place.
Zhang Zhenren's heart was filled with excitement: "What do you really want to say?"
Looking at Master Zhang's expression, Xu Qing'an couldn't help but want to stroke his beard. The relationship between them now seemed like he wanted to sell the talisman to Master Zhang.
Xu Qing'an couldn't help but shake his head: "It's a waste that you and Taoist Priest Qingling have been together for many years, but you didn't even realize this."
Master Zhang cleared his throat: "Master, please tell the Taoist!"
Xu Qingan then said: "Your junior brother stays away from the crowd and especially hates stalwart men like us because... he feels ashamed of himself. Think about it, he is as thin as a woman. How can he feel comfortable when he sees us? Only General
Only when you are locked up in this world can you have some confidence.
You buy some of that kind of medicine for him and let him practice boxing and kicking more so that he can get stronger. He will naturally thank you from the bottom of his heart. When the time comes, you can find a good girl for him and he will appreciate being a husband and a father.
The advantage is that I understand your thoughts.
I am a well-known playboy. I have never seen any scene before. I know these things better than anyone else. If you do as I say, maybe you and your junior sister will still have a chance. Otherwise, you are much older.
My beard is all gray, and if I delay any longer, I will be lonely for the rest of my life."
Xu Qing'an felt warm in his heart. In a few years... he would definitely have a family with Sister Zhen. Thinking of his happy life, he felt even more pitiful for Master Zhang.
Master Zhang carefully understood Xu Qing'an's words. His junior brother refused to help him persuade his junior sister because he didn't know what the relationship between men and women was. His uncle's words made some sense.
Zhang Zhenren said: "What if he is not moved?"
"You trick him out, and I'll take him to the flower boat to see them. Looking at those charming flower girls, I don't believe he won't be tempted," Xu Qing'an said, patting Zhang Zhenren's shoulder, "Listen to me, you must be right.
"
"This case is over, let's go."
Master Zhang finally made up his mind that he could not let his junior brother leave like this this time.
…
In the room, Xu Qinghuan was looking through the accounts given to her by Mrs. Song, which were left behind by Mr. Song. In order to save Song Chengxuan, the Song parents' room had destroyed all the objects that could leave clues. What was left behind
The items are flawless and can prove the identity of the Song family merchants.
Xu Rui, whom Mrs. Song mentioned, worked as a steward next to Mr. Song. There are three places where Xu Rui is recorded in the books.
One is when the Song family's goods are put into the warehouse, and the other is when the money is settled with the shopkeeper at the end of the year.
Xu Qinghuan thought about it and felt that someone had brought a new cup of tea. She didn't raise her head and picked up the tea bowl to drink: "Thank you Yin Gui..."
She raised her head slightly, saw the figure in front of her, and immediately swallowed the next words.
Not Yin Gui.
Standing in front of her was Song Chengxuan, a tall, handsome man with clear eyes.
"Master Song."
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that Song Chengxuan's knowing eyes flashed with displeasure after hearing this title.
Xu Qinghuan suddenly thought of the dream she had before, in which she was forced to call her husband.
Song Chengxuan's voice was low: "Are you sober?"
Xu Qinghuan's face suddenly turned red.
Song Chengxuan said: "Don't drink alcohol when I'm not around."
Xu Qinghuan nodded, but why did his words sound wrong? What do you mean you can't drink when he's not around? If he's around, she can drink?
Wouldn't that be embarrassing in front of him?
Xu Qinghuan cleared her throat, not wanting to mention that night to Song Chengxuan again, as it would make her feel very embarrassed.
Xu Qinghuan thought and touched her collar. She had a feeling that she was disheveled in front of Mr. Song, but soon she felt that her behavior was very childish. She was obviously well-dressed, so there was no need to feel guilty.
Song Chengxuan sat down and looked at the accounts on the table: "I'm still looking at these so late."
Xu Qinghuan said: "The more you think about it, the more confident you will be. When playing chess with that person, you can't make a wrong move. However, we are not the busiest people now."
After saying the words, Xu Qinghuan immediately pursed her lips again. What was wrong with her tonight? She always felt that nothing she said was right.
It's not wrong to say "we", it's not the first time she has used it.
It seems that this is also the price of drunkenness.
…
Li family.
Mrs. Li had just rested when she heard a servant coming in.
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Li asked.
"The eldest lady is feeling unwell, and the Kong family is already busy."
Mrs. Li was shocked: "Everything was fine before, what happened? Come on, change your clothes, I'm going to take a look."
