During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

Jiang Qian investigated for two days but found no clues. He had no choice but to carry gifts to the Governor's Mansion early one morning and quietly found Guo Xing.

The two talked in the study for a while, and Guo Xing patted his chest and said that he would definitely find out the case.

Jiang Qian looked grateful.

When the governor of the Ming Dynasty found out about this, he reprimanded Jiang Qian and refused to give Jiang Qian a good look for several days.

After Song Zheyuan learned about it, he also came over to join in the fun.

Jiang Qian unexpectedly rejected him, "Mr. Song, your health is not good yet, I think let's just forget about it."

"Being idle is also idle. You can't go home during the Chinese New Year this year, so why not find something to do for yourself."

"Young Master Song is a great talent. Why don't you stay in the county office and help me? I happen to have some data about new wheat seeds that I want to consult with you."

Song Zheyuan was also very interested in new wheat seeds and agreed after hesitating for a moment.

Jiang Qian was very considerate to Guo Xing. He told him to leave the case alone and directly sent Qian Yamen and others to him for dispatch.

Guo Xing was very satisfied with Jiang Qian's awareness of current affairs and directly occupied his lobby.

"Go and invite Miss Jiang over. I have something to ask."

Yamen Qian hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head when Guo Xing looked at him, "Yes, I'll go right away."

After a while, Jiang Miao arrived, wrapped tightly, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, with frost hanging on the eyelashes.

"Miss Jiang is out?" Guo Xing said with a smile.

Jiang Miao said as if he was familiar with it: "I heard that Master Guo was here just after I came back, so I rushed over here. If Master Guo has anything to say, just ask him. I will definitely tell you everything."

Guo Xing smiled and narrowed his eyes, "What if I ask Miss Jiang what the fireworks are about?"

"Simple, the fireworks were given to me by my future sister-in-law."

Guo Xing was rarely tongue-tied, "Who is your future sister-in-law?"

Jiang Miao pretended to be surprised, "Mr. Guo, don't you, such a big official, know about my eldest brother and the princess?"

Guo Xing choked on his own saliva, "You mean the princess and your eldest brother?"

"I didn't say that." Jiang Miao interrupted him hastily.

A smile suddenly appeared on Guo Xing's face, "I see, I thought... forget it, let's talk about the Gu family."

"Okay."

Guo Xing did not show his inner feelings but expressed doubts about Jiang Miao's cooperation. He prepared many questions, thinking that they would be different from what he quietly investigated.

But I don’t know if Jiang Miao believed in herself too much, and she actually told everything, just like what she had investigated, and even told some private things.

In Guo Xing's heart, Jiang Miao became less defensive, "According to you, there is something wrong with the Gu family?"

"I don't know if there is a problem, I just feel weird."

Guo Xing's eyes lit up. Sometimes a woman's intuition is very helpful in solving a case. "Tell me, what do you think is strange?"

Jiang Miao held her chin and hesitated for a moment.

Guo Xing felt his mouth was dry and took a sip of tea.

"Ah, I remembered."

"Ding!" Guo Xing was so frightened that he couldn't even hold the lid of the cup firmly, a lot of tea spilled out, and a large piece of the clothes on his chest got wet.

But he was not angry, "What do you think is strange?"

"I remember one time I went to Gu Ying's house. It must have been the day after she killed Wang's cousin. At that time, I was worried that she would not be able to think about it and I went to comfort her. I didn't expect that she acted like a normal person and even invited me to drink Biluochun."

Guo Xing interrupted her, "Are you sure it's Biluochun?"

"I'm sure, although I don't like tea very much, shopkeeper Hua from across the street from the Dessert House often invites me to tea. My favorite is Biluochun. At that time, I felt strange that renting a house for Gu Ying's family was not considered wealthy. Money can afford Biluochun, and I think she seems to drink it often." There is indeed something fishy about it.

Moreover, it is impossible for a normal woman to be the same as a normal woman after killing someone.

It seems that the problem lies with Gu Ying.

"Later she wanted to work in my shoe store. I was a little suspicious of her and didn't want her to go, but she begged me for a long time and said she didn't want any wages, so I didn't dare to ask for it. My shoes were in short supply, and if the drawings were stolen, my work would be in vain, so I rejected her sharply."

When Jiang Miao said this, her chest heaved, "Who knew she would actually call me ungrateful? I was so angry that I asked the Gu family and his son to leave."

"Now that I think about it, if I had been calmer, Master Gu might not have died."

Guo Xing comforted Jiang Miao and asked, "Has Master Gu been buried?"

"It was buried. I found out later that money was given to me. Gu Ying not only refused, but also threatened me and said that she would make me look good and make me pay for it."

"..."

"As soon as I heard about the fire, I wanted to go find her and ask her. Who knew that as soon as I entered the yard, there were two killers trying to kill me."

"..."

"Fortunately, the maid next to me is good at martial arts. Otherwise, I would be in trouble."

Guo Xing narrowed his eyes and asked casually: "Speaking of this girl with a blue heart, could it be that the princess also gave her to you?"

"She's not. She was exchanged by Ouyang Zhen and I. Ouyang Zhen thought she was too edible, so he gave her to me. But he was also concerned about Lan Xin's talent in studying medicine. It's a pity that Lan Xin doesn't like him."

Guo Xing was a little confused by her, but he finally had no doubts.

Ouyang Zhen has been protected by someone all year round. Although he doesn't know who he is, he has been famous for his bad temper over the years and has offended many people. He is still alive today, not because those people dare not take action, but because he cannot beat him.

Guo Xing asked Lan Xin a few more questions.

Lan Xin's answers were fluent, and there was almost no difference between what Jiang Miao said. The only difference was her view of Gu Ying.

Guo Xingli had some clues, but he didn't quite believe Jiang Miao and Lan Xin. He planned to confirm, "Go and bring Mrs. Fang from the Dessert Pavilion over quietly. I have something to ask her."

"Yes."

Mrs. Fang came to the county government office anxiously.

Guo Xing knew her past and was very friendly to her. "Don't be afraid, madam. I just have a few questions to ask you. You can go back after asking them."

Madam Fang nodded shyly, not daring to look at Guo Xing at all.

"Gu Ying and her family all work in the Dessert House. I heard that Gu Ying once hid customers' money?"

"Yes."

"Can you tell me more specifically?"

Madam Fang nodded.

Guo Xing could guide, but Madam Fang didn't dare to hide anything and told everything she knew.

"Go and find out who gave Gu Ying the money she hid in the first place."

"Master, I just checked. Guess what, the person who gave Gu Ying the money is King Yuzhang."

"what?"

Guo Xing really choked and was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

"you sure?"

The entourage nodded, "I specifically asked several people to inquire. During that time, the only handsome man who came in and out of Qingzhou City was King Yuzhang."
