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

Chapter 1180 There are clues
The little beggar still poured the incense cake into his clothes and wrapped it up.He pushed the plate lightly, and found that his dirty and black hands had left a few fingerprints on the jade-like white porcelain, and he couldn't help but flinch.

Taking a peek at Gu Chengyu, he was relieved to find that he was not angry.

"The place we stayed in has been divided, and I was allocated here to beg. Now that it has been divided, I am not allowed to go to other places, otherwise my legs will be broken. But I am small and can slip quickly. I often go out and run around, and they can't catch me."

The little beggar was a little smug when he talked about this, but he also knew that sooner or later he would be caught like this, and then he would be severely beaten.

Gu Chengyu's eyes lit up, "Oh? So, you are very familiar with this place? Then if I let you identify these beggars, it shouldn't be difficult for you?"

The little beggar nodded emphatically, "I know all the beggars in the capital, those three people are always begging in the west city, the one in the middle is called Dagan, I forget the names of the two, but I often see these two people With the big stick."

Gu Chengyu heard the words and took a look at the man named Dagan, and found that this person was thin and tall, like a hemp pole, the name was a bit appropriate.

It's just that when Mingmo and the others asked these three people, why did they run away?
"Did they steal something and got caught by adults? In fact, they didn't steal anything, that is, they stole the footwashing cloth from Aunt Wang's house over there, the dried beans from Mrs. Zhang's house in the west, and the small shop on the corner of Xicheng Street." The buns from the bun shop have also been stolen.”

Ming Mo thought it was a little funny, this kid was clever, but he was still a bit naive.The childish words make people laugh, but they have important things to do now, how can they listen to this kid talking nonsense here?
But he was also a little disappointed afterwards, it seemed that these three people were not the people they were looking for.

Gu Chengyu was overjoyed when he heard it, "You seem to be very familiar with the people nearby, but what about the shop in Nancheng?"

"Of course I'm familiar with it! I hang out here in Nancheng every day, and I even know which family has what food today, and whose business is doing well. Even if a woman has a good friend, I can tell who it is! "

The little beggar wandered around the south city all day long, and didn't concentrate on begging in one place. The money he begged in this way was indeed more than other beggars.

"What are you talking about?" Ming Mo scolded the little beggar for saying such shameless words in front of adults.

The little beggar shouted at Ming Mo, and was frightened to silence.

Gu Chengyu glanced at Mingmo, a child who was struggling in the market, how could he be too harsh on him?Besides, the child is still young, maybe he just heard it from others, so how can he understand what it means to be good friends?
"Then do you know anything strange about Nancheng recently? Whatever it is, you can tell me about it."

Gu Chengyu took out a tael of silver from his purse and handed it to the little beggar.

It's not that he doesn't want to give more, but he knows that if he gives too much, he won't be able to keep it.Not only can't keep it, but it will cause trouble for the upper body.

When the little beggar saw the silver, his eyes lit up immediately.He immediately took the money from Gu Chengyu's hand and carefully put it in his pocket.

After thinking about it carefully, he said, "A strange thing happened to Mrs. Wang's family two days ago. Her eldest son is a bodyguard, named Wang Liang, who works in the Weihu Bodyguard Agency in Nancheng. It's just that this person didn't come back two days ago. People thought they were going out for a dart walk, but this time they did not say anything in advance. The grandson of Mrs. Wang's family has been sick for the past two days, and she wanted to go to the escort agency for some money on credit to see a doctor for her grandson, but when Mrs. Wang went to the escort agency to ask, she found Everyone has changed."

When Gu Chengyu heard this, his heart trembled.He glanced at Ming Mo, and then at the little beggar.

"Aunt Wang asked when Wang Liang from the Escort would come back, but the Escort said she didn't know. She asked several people later, some said it would take a month, and some said it would take half a year. Anyway, every time she asked, she said no The same result. It seems that everyone in this escort agency is new, and she didn't see the head of the escort, she felt strange in her heart, and told the neighbors about it when she came back, and she was even more anxious."

When the little beggar talked about getting up, he talked more.

"There's something even weirder! I know Brother Wang Liang very well, and he often gives me food. After hearing about this, I wanted to go to the bodyguard bureau to find out. These new bodyguards are actually the same as the original bodyguards. A name, do you think it’s strange? There’s also one named Wang Liang, but it’s not the Wang Liang I know.”

While talking, the little beggar smelled the aroma of plum blossom cakes in his pocket, and couldn't help swallowing, feeling a bit greedy.

It's just that this noble man is still here, how dare he eat it?
"My lord, does this matter?" The little beggar took a careful look at Gu Chengyu, he knew it was a trivial matter.

It was only a tael of silver that was collected from this lord, and he boasted a lot just now, but now he said he didn't know, wouldn't that be a loss of face?
"Forget it! Is there anything else strange? Let's talk about it too!" Gu Chengyu looked at the little beggar, and saw that he spoke in a clear and orderly manner, and he didn't look like a five or six-year-old child. It is expected that his age should be more than this age.

"In the alley ahead, Mr. Zhang's family wanted to find a few nursing homes. Yesterday, more than 20 people came to apply! This piece of master was actually recruited into the hospital. Our little friends who were begging together discussed it, saying that this piece The master must have made some kind of windfall. Otherwise, his family has to recruit so many nurses in the small courtyard?"

Mr. Zhang's family only has a small surplus of money, and the yard he entered is not big, so there are more than 20 nursing homes?The little beggar also heard a few words from the big beggars, so he talked about it as a joke.

The little beggar could see that, this adult likes to hear these trivial things.Then he will pick these things and say, maybe the adults are satisfied, and they will reward him with some money.

"But there are similar things?" Gu Chengyu calculated the number of people, and felt that it should match the number of assassins.

There must be quite a few people in the escort agency, and with the addition of Mr. Zhang's family, there should be dozens of people.

The little beggar frowned and thought for a while, and found that there was nothing strange about it.It's just that he was afraid that Gu Chengyu would blame him, so he took the money away.

Just ask a few words and give money. How can there be such a good thing?

"The Cuihua in the alley to the west lost a small dress, and Miss Wen Lan from Yicuilou was redeemed by a master and taken away."

Gu Chengyu looked embarrassed when he heard the words, knowing that there was nothing to say.

"Okay! Tell me when you think about it! However, you can't stay here for the time being. Let me ask you, do you want to live a life without worrying about food and clothing?"

Gu Chengyu squatted down and looked at the little beggar.Looking at the bright eyes of the little beggar, he asked with a smile.
