Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 109 Arousing suspicion

"Look carefully again!" Jin Yiwei's tone increased.

Ye Qiongdan pretended to be taken aback, raised her head cautiously, took a few glances, and said in fear: "It's really not...

"Didn't lie?"

Ye Qiongdan shook her head vigorously.

"Go in! Next!" Jin Yiwei said expressionlessly.

Not far away, some villagers stood watching the commotion.

"Oh, I don't know who the two adults in the lead are. Their aura is really scary! I almost peed my pants when I was stared at by them."

"Isn't it? Those eyes are cold, like looking at a dead person!"

"Hey, you said, no one in our village has committed a major crime?"

"Maybe it has something to do with the corpse dug up yesterday? Let's take a look first, but don't get too close. It's not easy to see these two adults. We can't afford to provoke them, we can't afford to provoke them..."

……

After Ye Qiongdan went in, the fourth uncle was called out ignorantly, and then, under the cold eyes and stern interrogation of the two Jin Yiwei, he was frightened and cried.

The two Jin Yiwei frowned and looked at each other.

Tang Lizheng quickly explained: "The fourth son of the Ye family is indeed a mentally unsound person. When he was young, because he was the youngest son in the family, he was loved by the old couple, which aroused the jealousy of the second grandson of the eldest son. Arrogant, pushed him so hard that he smashed his brain, and after that, his words and deeds have been like a child."

"You have to think clearly, if you dare to lie, you will have to pay a heavy price." Jin Yiwei, who had a pair of slender eyes, narrowed his eyes, and the eyes were gloomy, like a dark rainy day.

"It's true! It's true!" Tang Lizheng said nervously, sweating profusely, "People in the nearby villages all know about it. The grass people dare not lie! Never lie!"

"Well, next one!" The slender-eyed Jin Yiwei said with a straight face.

Xue girl came out with some fear, glanced at the unfolded portrait of the other party, and shook her head.

"Are you sure you haven't seen it?"

"En." Snow girl nodded.

Seeing that she didn't look like she was lying, the two guards raised their chins and motioned for the next person to come and recognize the portrait.

After a cup of tea, several other people in the new house had finished recognizing the portrait, Ye Qinghan wrapped a cloth around his face and walked out.

The slender-eyed Jin Yiwei immediately became vigilant, and when he stretched out his hand, an externalized force hit him in the face, and the cotton cloth covering his face was torn apart.

A face covered with red rash appeared in front of everyone.

Ye Qinghan's pupils constricted, this feeling of being controlled by others made him feel strange and disgusted.

He pursed his lips slightly, hiding his emotions, pretending to be frightened, and seemed a little overwhelmed.

For some reason, he felt that acting seemed to be his innate ability, which had been deeply engraved in his subconscious mind.

"What's going on?" The slender-eyed Jin Yiwei looked at him with an extremely sharp look.

"Suddenly contracted a serious illness and developed a rash." Ye Qinghan lowered his head, acting like an honest person.

"Rash?" Jin Yiwei frowned, looked at his face suspiciously, tried to identify his facial features, but finally had to give up, "Why didn't the rash appear sooner, and why didn't the rash appear later, but at this time, Got a rash?"

"Grass, grass people don't know."

"I have some doubts now, are you the person in the painting?" Jin Yiwei, with slender eyes, took a step closer, stretched out his hand to pinch his mandible, and touched his bones carefully. He touched his face around, but there was no trace of the human skin mask.

Even so, he did not dispel the doubts in his heart.

"My lord, Sanfang's son is indeed not the person in the painting," Tang Lizheng said with difficulty under pressure, "Even, he and the person in the painting do not have the slightest resemblance, the villagers can testify .”

"Really?" He raised his eyebrows slightly, and raised his chin at a few yamen servants, "You drive the group of villagers who are watching the fun here! My lord wants to ask questions!"

"Yes!" Several yamen servants nodded repeatedly.

After a while, they drove a group of trembling villagers over.

"My lord asks a question, you must answer honestly!" The slender-eyed Jin Yiwei put his hand on the Xiuchun knife at his waist, his knife-like eyes swept across all the panicked villagers, "If anyone Half of the sentence is adulterated, my lord will kill him on the spot!"

"Yes yes yes..." The villagers nodded obediently.

"My lord asks you, do you know him?" The slender-eyed Jin Yiwei pulled out the Xiuchun knife from his waist, and pointed the tip of the knife at Ye Qinghan.

"I know, I know." The villagers nodded repeatedly.

"Is he the one who came to the village a month ago, or the one who has been living in the village?"

"People who have always lived in the village."

"Didn't you lie?" He said more emphatically.

"My lord, don't dare..." Some people were about to cry in fright.

"Okay," he nodded in satisfaction, put the knife back into its sheath, unfolded the portrait in his hand, and looked at Ye Qinghan, "Do you know this person?"

"I don't know Caomin, I've never seen them before." Ye Qinghan pretended to be quite frightened by this battle, and couldn't speak clearly.

The slender-eyed Jin Yiwei stared at him for a while. Generally speaking, if a person has a ghost in his heart, he will definitely show his flaws under his eyes.

But Ye Qinghan's psychological quality is excellent, he acts calmly and meticulously.

The Jin Yiwei always felt that there was something weird about him, but he couldn't see anything unusual about him, so he could only tell himself that he was thinking too much.

He put away the picture scroll and asked again: "Has everyone in your family come to recognize you?"

"They're all here," Ye Qiongdan said while patting the fourth uncle's shoulder to comfort him, "We don't know the people in the painting."

The slender-eyed Jin Yiwei raised his hand, signaling for everyone to leave.

After walking a few steps, he looked back at Ye Qinghan again.

Ye Qiongdan breathed a sigh of relief after they walked away.

Xue girl closed the door, and asked curiously: "The person in the portrait is not a Jiangyang thief?"

"Let's talk less about this, so as not to cause trouble." Ye Qiongdan urged.

"That's right," Ye Qingyu nodded, "They have special identities, and they are not in the yamen agency, so we and other ordinary people like Shengdou can't offend them. In the future, don't talk about this matter again."

Snow girl nodded quickly.

After breakfast, Ye Qiongdan went to the county with Mr. Ye and Ye Fengxian, and completed the transfer of the land at the yamen.

Before leaving, Ye Qiongdan met Wang De.

Wang De often worked with the county magistrate and was highly regarded by him.

Ye Qiongdan called Wang De aside, and gave him five taels of silver: "Just now I asked you to help with the transfer, it's really hard for you, you can use the money to buy some wine."

"It can't be done. Isn't this a matter of duty?" Wang De shook his head.

"There's not much money, just take it," Ye Qiongdan lowered his voice, "By the way, the county magistrate came to our Shanghe Village last night, why?"

Wang De hesitated for a moment, then pursed his lips.

"Can't you tell?"

"I told you, you have to let this matter rot in your stomach." Wang De leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words.

"There are two Jinyiwei left?"

"Shh..."

"I see," Ye Qiongdan nodded, "I won't talk nonsense."

"I heard that the person in the portrait has a very important identity. Before the cause of his death is found out, the two Jinyi guards who stayed at the post station in Qinghe County will not leave in a short time," Wang De said seriously, "That's true. Great man, our county magistrate must give some face."

"I know." Ye Qiongdan said anxiously.

"You can't tell the outside world about this anymore." Wang De said worriedly.

Ye Qiongdan nodded, and said gratefully: "Thank you very much today."

"It's okay. If there is a small matter in the future, just come to the county government and just look for me, Wang De." The other party smiled heartily.

"That's fine, then I'll go first."

When Ye Qiongdan was leaving, he was spotted by Manager Fu who was coming to the yamen to handle some errands.

Manager Fu was about to get out of the carriage, but when he saw her, he brushed the curtains angrily, and didn't even get out of the carriage.

A Cai said tremblingly at the side: "My lord, why bother to get angry with a bratty yellow-haired girl?"

"This girl didn't know good and bad at first, and then she didn't eat or drink as a toast, and now she dares to fight against me and join hands with someone surnamed Su to ruin my business at Bazhen Building, which is really unbearable! Manager Fu clenched his fists, and even the habitual fake smile on his face disappeared.

Ah Cai quickly poured him a cup of tea to calm him down.

How can Manager Fu be in the mood to drink tea at this time?
He squinted his eyes halfway, and said with some doubts: "I was wondering, Ye Qiongdan, a country girl, how could she have the ability to improve Quanfulou's signature dishes, and how can she provide Quanfulou with a few more good dishes? ? Logically speaking, she should be a frog in a well!"

"Maybe she had some chance that we don't know about?" Ah Cai said bravely.

"It's only three days! In just three days, Quanfulou has robbed more than half of Bazhenlou's business. Do you know how the manager and manager of Qingyuan County talked to me in a weird way yesterday? This manager and manager, He has always been against me, and I'm afraid he has been coveting this year's promotion opportunity." Manager Fu pursed his lips displeasedly.

If Steward He becomes the chief steward of Wu's Chamber of Commerce in Yiling County, then his good days will come to an end.

Ah Cai lowered his head, not daring to speak.

"Forget it, although the matter of Quanfulou troubles me, it's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning," Manager Fu shook his head, "The recipes and recipes of Jiuwei Restaurant are the ones that are related to my promotion. Big deal. How is Liu Xiusheng's routine?"

"No progress." Ah Cai buried his head even lower.

"Trash!" Manager Fu slapped the low table on the carriage, "Run to Qili Town immediately and tell him that I only give him the last seven days, if he hasn't got the Jiuwei Restaurant Fangzi and recipes, then, it would be easy for him to spit out double the deposit!"

"Yes!" Ah Cai nodded quickly.

Manager Fu took a deep breath in the carriage, and after he calmed down, he opened the curtain, showed his trademark smirk, and walked towards the yamen.

Ah Cai did not dare to neglect for a moment and went to Qili Town.

When Ah Cai arrived at Jiuwei Restaurant, it was the peak time of customer traffic at noon.

Relying that Ye Qiongdan hadn't seen him before, he walked into the shop openly, spotted an empty seat, sat down quickly, and called out: "Little Er, here's a meal!"
