Brocade clothing

Chapter 69
"What's wrong?" Li Tianxiao asked, seeing that her expression was not right.

Chu Qing clicked here, and said: "Why is there no detailed record of how to obtain the stolen money here? It stands to reason that the stolen money is official money, which is more severe, but it is only a few pennies. Who stole it? There is no time or place." Xiao Ming, don't you think it's too simple here?"

Li Tianxiao looked over his head, frowned, turned sideways, stared at her profile, was stunned for a moment, and then said slowly, "Should I continue to ask the old man in the government office? "

Chu Qing shook his head and said: "If this matter is really tricky, it will scare the snake. Let's go to Chunxiang Pavilion."

Li Tianxiao frowned: "Why did you go there again?"

Chu Qing said: "Look for Aunt You and the others, they must still have an impression of what happened more than 20 years ago."

Chunxiang Pavilion.

When Chu Qing found Aunt You and the three of them, their eyes lit up: "My lord, is there anything to spend money on?"

Chu Qing took out three silver ingots from her bosom: "Let's see what the three said, whether it makes me want to spend it."

The three of them looked at each other, gearing up: "My lord, just ask."

Chu Qingdao: "In the 23rd year of Emperor Xiaozong, there was a severe drought in February. I don't know if the three of you still remember the disaster of this year?"

"Of course I remember it. I don't know that there were people who changed their sons to eat at that time. It was terrible. There were also businessmen who made money for the country. It was simply abominable! Fortunately, there were still people who had not lost their conscience at that time. Otherwise, they would not have been allocated funds by the court. , I am afraid that more people will starve to death!"

"Oh? I don't know who it is?" Chu Qing asked.

"Let me think about it. At that time, there seemed to be three masters who gave porridge every day. Although there were not many, they would not have starved to death. If it hadn't been too difficult back then, the three of us would not have been sold here and wasted our lives. Ah." Aunt You sighed.

Aunt Feng added: "That's right, that's right, I remembered that the master of Sanmi at that time was Mr. Ge, the Ge family that was wiped out. It was too miserable. Many people spontaneously went to offer incense to the Ge family. They are really good people." They don’t live long, there really aren’t many such good people left, but I didn’t expect that who would be so hateful and so cruel, that would cost more than 100 lives.”

Aunt Chen said: "When you said that, I also remembered that Mr. Ge almost gave away half of his net worth back then. Fortunately, the court appropriated the disaster money, but he didn't expect that he was robbed. It's so hateful! Thanks to those last The robbers were caught and chopped at the entrance of the vegetable market, bleeding profusely, I even went to see it, it was scary."

"How come I don't know about this?"

"Aren't you dizzy? It's just that they are bandits, but I don't think those people look like them. Well, they don't look like them." Aunt Chen probably kept shaking her head because her memory was still fresh.

Chu Qing's heart moved: "Aunt Chen, why do you think it doesn't look like it?" She said, pushing a piece of silver forward.

Aunt Chen said: "I'm not sure, anyway, I feel that those robbers who you said murdered and robbed must have rough beards and sloppy beards, but there were only three robbers at that time, and one of them looked like a white-faced scholar, more like a A teacher instead of a bandit, speaking of it, looks very familiar, think about it now."

Chu Qing looked over: "Familiar?"

Aunt Chen scratched her head: "That scholar-looking bandit is pretty good-looking, so I remember it clearly, maybe I remembered it wrong..." Aunt You and Aunt Feng gave her a push, and said a few nasty words , Chu Qing's ears moved, but he didn't speak, Li Tianxiao frowned, and his face sank again.There was air-conditioning on his body, and Aunt You and the three immediately shrank their necks.

Chu Qing didn't notice Li Tianxiao's strangeness. She bit her lip and thought about it for a while before she looked over: "The three families who gave porridge back then, besides the Ge family, who else?"

Aunt Chen thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "I can't remember. If it wasn't for the Ge family's big incidents, I probably wouldn't remember it. It's been too long." Good things are always so easy to forget.

On the contrary, Aunt Feng said: "I know, I know, it's the Liu family and the Feng family. The Feng family is my own family, and I have the same surname, so I remember clearly at the time. The Liu family was a well-known scholarly family back then. I can only give porridge, but the two of them have moved away after many years, and I don’t know where they went.” Aunt Feng said with emotion: “The eldest son of the Liu family is really good-looking, many young girls back then Everyone clamored that he would not marry..."

Aunt Chen said softly, "Hey, now that you've said that, I finally understand why the white-faced scholar looks so familiar. He looks a bit like Mr. Liu!"

Aunt Feng spat at her: "Hey, it's not that you are a nymphomaniac. You fell in love with Mr. Liu back then? It's a pity that you are a decent person and would not come to our Goulan courtyard... Mr. Liu is from a scholarly family. How could it be a robber?"

Aunt Chen said, "I'm just talking."

He does not mean that.

When Chu Qing and the others left the Chunxiang Pavilion again, Li Tianxiao noticed that Chu Qing's brows were tightly frowned: "What's wrong?"

Chu shook his head lightly, telling him to be calm, and then looked at Aunt Feng: "I don't know where the Liu family and Feng family moved to? Aunt Feng, do you know?"

"Where did you move to? It's been so many years, how can you know. But it's strange, not long after the Ge family was wiped out, the two of them suddenly moved as soon as they said they would move. At that time, many people thought that It's strange, they moved away overnight, I don't know, I thought they were hiding from someone." Aunt Feng shook her head, expressing that there was nothing she could do to help.

But just when Chu Qing and the others were about to say goodbye and leave, Aunt Feng suddenly thought of something, and said suddenly: "By the way, this young master, please stay."

Chu Qing turned around: "What's wrong?"

Aunt Feng said: "When you say that, I remember that there is still one member of the Feng family staying in Yancheng."

The three of Chu Qing got into the carriage again, Chu Qing frowned slightly, and had a faint premonition in her heart.The person Aunt Feng mentioned was a child of the Feng family who was driven out of the Feng family in the early years. Because he made a mistake in the early years and almost made a big mistake in the business of the Feng family, he was arrested by the patriarch of the Feng family. In anger, he was kicked out of the house, expelled, and then disappeared.However, Aunt Feng said that she only had the same name as the Feng family, so she might be inextricably linked, because she actually knew where the expelled son lived.

Li Tianxiao saw that her expression was wrong, and asked, "But is there a problem? Are the three women's words trustworthy?"

Chu Qing said: "It's believable. This Chunxiang Pavilion should not be like other brothels, where there are many picklings."

Li Tianxiao asked, "How did you know that?"

Chu Qingdao: "Then Aunt Fang went out from Chunxiang Pavilion. When the Ge family was killed, Aunt Fang was still pregnant with a child and was alone. When the Ge family was wiped out, it must have been done by the enemy. Aunt Fang went to the old bustard in Chunxiang Pavilion Well, the bustard must know the pros and cons of it, but she still took in Aunt Fang, and even kept the child for so many years, and now she is even willing to avenge her, which at least shows that the bustard has a very good heart."

Li Tianxiao nodded: "So what did you see? Do you think that the white-faced scholar among the three so-called 'bandits' who was killed was really the eldest son of the Liu family?"

Chu Qing nodded and said: "These three families, I'm afraid...all will be silenced."

The three of them must have known something terrible back then, otherwise, it would have been impossible for accidents to happen one after another.

Li Tianxiao's face also became solemn, and Yu Kufeng was first worried about Li Tianxiao's safety: "Master, do you want to write a letter and call more people over?" Just a few of them are easily silenced.

Li Tianxiao shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's too late."

Chu Qing also nodded in agreement.

This Yancheng is not small if you say it is big, but it is not big if you say it is. I am afraid that from the time they went to the old house of the Ge family to the time they found Steward Ge, they had already been followed by people.Steward Ge was received by people from the government back then, but those people did not kill Steward Ge. Either Steward Ge had evidence that made them afraid to do it easily; By.Otherwise, she is afraid that she will miss the punch line.

Yu Kuifeng was confused when he heard this: "Master, what's the matter?"

Li Tianxiao said: "Butler Ge is probably the murderer."

"What?!" Yu Kufeng was shocked.

"It's just a possibility, and it's not sure yet." If it's the former, maybe Steward Ge really knows more things that they don't.After all, Steward Ge was Master Ge's confidant back then, and since he was willing to tell Steward Ge where the corpse was hidden, if there was something he couldn't discuss, he might have told Steward Ge as well.But Butler Ge didn't mention this matter a few times before, so, does he not trust them, or is it not what he saw at all, and he is actually one of the people who helped the evildoers back then?

Yu Kufeng said: "I'll go and arrest him and torture him for interrogation, isn't that all right?"

Chu Qing said: "What if he is not?"

Yu Gufeng was dumbfounded: "What's going to happen?" You can't just sit and wait for death, can you?
Chu Qing's eyes fell on the two of them: "Change your appearance, start again."

Yu Gufeng said "Huh", not sure why, but after half an hour, when two women and a man appeared on the street, Yu Gufeng looked at Li Tianxiao, who was still handsome and handsome, and then at the women's clothing on himself, angrily Glaring at Chu Qing: "Grandpa Chu...Chu'er, what's going on with you?" He pointed at himself, then at Li Tianxiao, why did he let him pretend to be a woman and Li Tianxiao pretended to be a man?Obviously he can pretend to be a man too!No, you can pretend to be a servant.

Chu Qing is also dressed in women's clothing, but she has changed her face and looks more heroic. The reason why Chu Qing asked Yu Kuifeng to change into women's clothing is because she is afraid of being exposed and her identity as a woman will be exposed.Therefore, Yu Gufeng was forcibly pulled over, because she is very good at disguise, Yu Gufeng is taller and has a bigger frame, but she is really handsome, and Chu Qing doesn't feel awkward anymore.

Li Tianxiao glanced at Yu Gufeng blankly, and Yu Gufeng shut up obediently.
