The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1057 Rejection
The other person is more dull, just hangs his head and bends his waist, looking at a loss.

The man who spoke turned his eyes slightly, and when he saw Gu Chengyu, his pupils shrank slightly, and there was a trace of strangeness on his face.

But for a moment, he returned to his honest and honest appearance before.

The people around could not speak out when they smelled the stench.

What is a night incense collector doing so carefully?Is there anyone else who will hide in Yexiang's bucket?Then it must be smoked to death?
These officials are really full and have nothing to do, so it is better to search early and come to the city.

Those who enter the city early in the morning are mostly small traders.Some people picked vegetables grown at home, as well as chicken, duck and fish.

Others carried their own baskets, dustpans and other daily necessities. Everyone was eager to go to the city to occupy a good seat!
The yamen servant took out two pieces of paper from his pocket, compared them carefully with the two, and then looked at the big wooden barrel that was dirty and smelly outside.

I wanted to open it to have a look, but I really couldn't do it, so I finally waved my hand, intending to let it go.

When Gu Chengyu took out the two portraits just now, he leaned forward to take a look.

I found that the two people in this painting were very abstract. They both had beards and wide-eyed eyes. There were only some differences in hairstyle and general face shape.

He couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth. With such a painting, it's really amazing to be able to catch these two wanted criminals.

As for why they should be arrested, there is nothing in these two paintings. It seems that we have to look at the notice at the gate of the city.

Gu Chengyu glanced at the faces of the two people behind him, and saw that they had dark skin and thick eyebrows and big eyes.

Then he cast his eyes on the necks of the two, and he found that the skin leaking from the inside of the other's placket was much lighter than the skin on the face.

Gu Chengyu didn't care either. The ancients wore layers of clothes, and they couldn't be shirtless like in previous lives. It's normal for their skin to be fairer.

Turning his eyes inadvertently, he suddenly found that when the two men raised their hands, the skin exposed on their wrists was much whiter than their hands.

This is a bit strange. It stands to reason that farming households must be indispensable to do farm work.

It is normal for farmers to go to the ground with their sleeves and trouser legs rolled up. How can there be two different skin conditions on the wrists and hands?
With doubts in his heart, Gu Chengyu paid a little more attention to these two people.

The crowd moved forward slowly, Gu Chengyu moved forward with the long dragon, and when he approached the gate of the city, he finally saw the content of the notice.

A vicious murderer?Absconded after the murder?The notice stated that these two people not only robbed a farm family of money, but also murdered a family of five, and set fire to the farm house.

After reading it, Gu Chengyu was a little puzzled.Even if you want to rob people of money, it doesn't mean you have to kill the whole family, right?

What does it matter if the face is seen?Anyway, this ancient time is not as technologically advanced as in the previous life. As long as they are not locals, and they flee to other places after committing crimes, and use fake officials to guide them, can the government still catch them?

Isn't it superfluous to kill someone?This murder is a much more serious crime than robbery. Who would do such a thing?
Unless the robbers have a deep hatred with the host family, their purpose is not to grab money, but to kill people to vent their anger.

And since there are portraits, there must be witnesses, so why did the witnesses escape?Did the witness hide out of the sight of the wanted man?
Gu Chengyu shook his head, he always felt that this matter was a bit unusual.

After finally entering the city gate, Gu Chengyu took Ming Mo straight to the inn where he stayed last time.

This time when he came to Yingnan Mansion, Gu Chengyu didn't bring the tea inkstone with him.He left Mingyan in Hangtian Mansion to monitor the situation there and report to him in time.

"Can you see clearly? Is it really that person?" One of the people pushing the wheelbarrow asked the other man, with some doubts in his tone.

"It's true, this person is very handsome, I will never admit his mistake." The other man lowered his voice and replied.

"Didn't the master tell you to avoid this person? I didn't expect that we all came to Yingnan Mansion and we could meet him. It's really haunting!"

"Isn't it? Didn't you say that this person is in Hangtian Mansion at the moment? How could he appear in Yingnan Mansion? Then our plan will still be implemented?"

"Wait for a while, let's finish the search for someone first. This person is a variable, so don't lose your wife and lose your army. It's better to be safe."

The two of them pushed the wheelbarrow to the south alley, where the common people lived, and the old man Wang generally started collecting night incense from here.

"Why don't we take advantage of this Li Taixing?"

"No! This person is too cunning, let's act according to the master's order, and don't make up our own minds. Otherwise, once the master blames him, we won't be able to bear it."

Gu Chengyu and Ming Mo found the inn, they didn't care about anything, they slept for a few hours before talking.

Several hours later, Gu Chengyu rubbed his dry eyes and found that the sky outside had already turned dark.

"My lord, are you awake?" Ming Mo entered the room from the outside carrying a copper basin, ready to serve Gu Chengyu to wash up.

"Have you found out about Li Taihang's movements in the past few days?" Gu Chengyu got up and put on his clothes, and went to the copper basin to clean his face with warm water, only then did he feel more awake.

"There seems to be quite a lot of entertainment in Mr. Li's house in the past few days. It is said that tonight they have hosted a banquet for those well-known merchants in the city."

Ming Mo handed the handkerchief in his hand to Gu Chengyu, and Gu Chengyu took the handkerchief and gave a meal, "Are you a merchant?"

His eyes sharpened, what a Li Taihang, did he hear the news of Hang Tianfu?

"The disaster victims arrived at the gate of the city, how did he deal with it?" Gu Chengyu put the handkerchief on the wooden stand, then walked to the table and sat down.

"The victims of the disaster arrived at Yingnan Mansion last night. Mr. Li ordered people to guard the gate of the city, and even sent additional guards to watch the night to prevent the victims from entering. But he didn't show up, and he only took such countermeasures."

Ming Mo thought about it carefully, and there should be nothing missing.

"Where's Ding Shiliu? He didn't hand over the official's handwritten letter to Mr. Li?" Gu Chengyu's face darkened. This Li Taihang is really an old fritters. Does this mean that he is not taken seriously?
"I gave it to you. When it was getting dark yesterday, Ding Shiliu and the others arrived at the gate of the city. After he entered the city, he went to the corner gate of the government office to hand over your post and handwritten letter, and handed these over to the porter. Afterwards, the concierge only told him to wait a moment. But Ding Shiliu waited for a long time, and then said nothing more."

Ming Mo was also very indignant when he said this. This time, his lord's letter was accompanied by a post with his official seal on it.

What does Master Li mean by rejecting Ding Shiliu?His family is an imperial envoy appointed by the emperor, how could Li Taihang be so confused?
