my wife is a consul

Chapter 369

The originally messy courtyard has become extremely quiet now, because there are suddenly many men wearing peaked caps and black uniforms in the courtyard. This kind of attire is usually the style of plainclothes spy operations. Shocked by the coldness that appeared, they all hid in their own houses.

In the west wing hut, Xue Ruo's big eyes lit up when she saw Lu Ming coming in through the door, but she couldn't help but timidly retreated a few steps and hid behind the pillars.

Obviously, although she and Lu Ming have only met once, under the care of this uncle, it may be the most peaceful day for her recently. She knows that this uncle is a good person, but she is still afraid of him.

It wasn't until Granny Tuolong came in that Xue Ruo came out from behind the pillars, and timidly came to Granny Tuolong, stretched out her small hand to hold Granny Tuolong's sleeve, and said softly, "Grandma..." as if seeing a relative Generally, the eye circles are immediately red.

Lu Ming couldn't help laughing. If you want to talk about hunchbacks, hunchbacks and zombies are eerie, children will be afraid of seeing this kind of old woman, but they don't want this little girl to be very close to her.

The unsmiling Tuolong looked at this little girl with a rare warmth in his eyes.

"Well, then you can ask her." Lu Ming gestured.

The current Xue Ruo is dressed in rags, her hair is disheveled, she is as dirty as a little beggar.

In this kind of large courtyard, it is inconspicuous, and his mother also pretends to be a trash woman.

Lu Ming was able to come here probably because his mother went to No. 7 Hongta Road to spy late at night, and had a brief fight with Granny Tuolong, and disappeared without a trace after leaving a note.

Tuolong mother-in-law praised Xueruo's mother's skill greatly, saying that she was the first opponent she met in her life that could really match her.

Lu Ming was also surprised when he heard this. Granny Tuolong and Yuluan were probably at the same level, and the rest of Qing'e were weaker. Xue Ruo's mother was really amazing.

The note left by Xue Ruo's mother was this address, and if she had time, she made an appointment to meet at the current time.

Over there, Granny Tuolong pulled Xue Ruo to ask questions, but before she said a few words, Xue Ruo went into the back room, took out a letter, put her arms around Granny Tuolong's neck and whispered something to Granny Tuolong, timidly. After glancing at Lu Ming, he quickly turned his gaze away.

"Master, it's a letter for you!" Grandma Tuolong glanced at her, and then handed the letter to Lu Ming.

The handwriting is very beautiful. Calling Lu Ming "Master Commissioner" is a letter of plea. Now she wants to find out the cause of her husband's death. It is very inconvenient to bring her daughter by her side. Since there is really no one to ask, she can only ask the commissioner to take her in for a while. .

The lord once saved her from fire and water, and the love and friendship will never be forgotten.

Not to mention, I wanted to visit my lord last night, but met a senior expert I had never seen in my life.

To have such a good assistant by your side is a testament to the abundance of your kindness.

I was supposed to have a drink with my seniors, and thank you with a candle, but my heart was in a mess and everything was hard, so I only came to thank you when the clouds were clear and the sun was shining.

Between the lines of the letter, there is a hint of heroism and freedom of a chivalrous woman.

She didn't explain that she wasn't the murderer who killed her husband, and she probably didn't think she needed an explanation, and the person who wanted to explain it wasn't worthy of her entrustment.

Glancing at Xueruo, Lu Ming asked, "Why did you come to the south with your father, and not your mother?" With Qin's skill, if she was similar to Granny Tuolong, then it would be considered an unexpected surprise attack when the train stopped , but it may not be the case that the whole army will be wiped out.

After all, there were only twenty or thirty gunmen on the other side, and they were not fighting at a long distance in the carriage, so the Qin family and Granny Tuolong could just give full play to their advantages.

"My mother is often away from home, and sometimes she only comes back for a few days a month..." Xue Ruo said timidly, "Yesterday, my mother cried and said that she regretted not being at home because she was busy with other things the previous month..."

Lu Ming nodded, and looked at Xue Ruo. The Qin family may not be the inheritance of the so-called lost warriors of Baozhu Palace, but it is just a rare inheritance of blood in this late martial arts era.Any chance to show Bi Zhu?
But the chances may not be great, otherwise, if Xueruo's mother would start training her in her infancy, the effect would be the best.

Moreover, if Xueruo's mother feels that martial arts is useless and doesn't want to pass it on, she can't make up her mind for others.

Well, it's better not to let Bizhu see it.

However, Xueruo's mother is often not at home, so she probably has her own secrets.

Thinking wildly, Lu Ming waved his hand: "We're back!"

……

Suddenly, a murder occurred in Chengjiaji.

Lu Ming was still looking for the Qin family at that time.

Lu Ming was also very interested in what exactly Shengwei Bodyguard's dark bodyguard was doing.

This Qin chivalrous woman should know more than herself, and it would be better if she could cooperate.

Therefore, I left a letter to the landlord of the courtyard, and asked the tenants in the west wing to come back to settle the rent or something, and then give the letter to her.

Nothing was revealed in the letter, only that he wanted to see her again and had something important to discuss.

But there has been no reply.

Then, a tragedy happened in Chengjiaji.

A family of farmers assigned to Cheng's land died tragically.

In Chengjiaji, Lu Ming simply carried out the land reform, allocating all the land of the landlord to the tenant farmers.

It is also because almost all the land in Chengjiaji is the ancestral land of Cheng Dasui's family, the commander-in-chief of Wanzhou Road, so the division of the land will not arouse more conjectures in meaning, but I just think it is for Cheng Dasui's displeasure.

In fact, Lu Ming also wanted to see how the land equalization model would be implemented in some areas where land mergers were serious.

Of course, from the perspective of the empire, land and population, as well as the degree of industrialization, there is no need to be so extreme.

Even the land manor model is more advanced. Farmers without land can go to the city to work as workers.

But in the Northern Territory, in some areas, the fundamental problem can only be solved by equalizing the land.

The Cheng family set directly confiscated all the fields of the Cheng family and distributed them to the tenant farmers.

In fact, many tenant farmers did not dare to take over, but during the war, there were quite a few Cheng Jiaji who fled to Wanzhou Road to escape the flames of war.

Therefore, the Chengjiaji Military Management Committee encouraged the immigrants from Nanping Road to go to Chengjiaji, promising that the new immigrants would divide their land, which is really courageous.

The farmer who was massacred was an immigrant from Nanping Road, a family of seven, and was killed cleanly.

The Governor's Office sent a telegram to the Chengjiaji Military Control Committee, reprimanding the Military Control Committee for dividing the land, which caused chaos and bloodshed.

In Chengjiaji, an infantry battalion of the Black Mountain Brigade was stationed, and the other was the Nanping Second Infantry Regiment, but the military control committee was completely in the hands of the Black Mountain faction.

Chengjiaji is one of the important throat towns between Wanzhou Road and Nanping Road. It originally belonged to Wanzhou Road and was the ancestral home of Cheng Dasui, a warlord of Wanzhou Road. The peace agreement signed between Baoshan and Cheng Dasui, as a buffer, will be returned to Wanzhou Road in one year. Even so, Cheng Dasui's relatives in Chengjiaji have already fled and dare not come back.

No one would think that after a year, Chengjiaji would really be returned to Wanzhou Road, especially since the people from Montenegro are now managing this place.

No one obstructed the land distribution, but the responders talked about it, and almost none of the aborigines in this town dared to participate. Now a family of Nanping immigrants who happily got the land was exterminated again, and the bloody corpses were hung in the Outside.

I also want to know how the murderer came and what his purpose is.
