To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

boom!

When people arrived at the ground, there were exclamations.

The accomplice didn't understand: "You said you solved the problem, but you called him?"

He looked back worriedly and saw an arrow coming towards him. He rolled over quickly, but still failed to avoid it and the arrow hit him directly in the thigh.

He screamed in pain.

Jiusu asked: "Who was the person you killed? Tell me!"

The two men hugged each other in fear, and one of the servants said, "A servant in the mansion did something wrong and offended the master, so we were sent here to deal with it."

The man is still in the sack.

Jiusu untied his clothes and looked at his familiar face, but couldn't remember who it was. Could it be an ordinary face? That's not right, it feels like the same person.

But I can't remember it now.

"What did I do wrong that I had to kill someone?"

The servant shook his head, revealing a trace of fear: "I don't know either. I heard some rumors that they saw the master's secret."

Jiusu asked: "Where are you from?"

"Tian, ​​Tian family." he said.

Jiusu pursed his lips and said, "When you go back, just say that the person has been killed. You should be afraid that Master Tian will be angry, right?"

The two servants helped each other up and nodded repeatedly.

She and the unconscious man were the only ones left in the alley. She stuffed a pill into his mouth, then leaned against the wall and waited, looking down at the blood on the ground.

I looked up again and saw a narrow, white road with no one on it.

The man sat up suddenly, the pain in his body was particularly severe. He gritted his teeth in pain, then looked at Jiusu, as if sizing him up, and asked uncertainly.

"You, you are Jiusu?"

Jiusu asked: "Do you know me?"

The man said, "I am Chen Qing, the son of the village chief."

Jiusu suddenly realized, she nodded: "Yes, I said you look like someone, it turns out to be Brother Chen Qing."

The village chief had instructed her before.

If you encounter danger in town, go to Tian Mansion to find Chen Qing.

"I dare not..." Chen Qing knew that Jiusu was now an official appointed by the imperial court. He had really risen to prominence after not seeing him for a few days. He looked at the blanket on his body and asked, "Thank you for saving me."

Jiusu looked around and said, "It's not suitable to stay here for long. I'll take you back home first."

The first time he came to Jiu Mansion, Chen Qing didn't dare to raise his head. When he saw the pool that was about to freeze, he couldn't help vomiting and apologized repeatedly.

"It's okay." Jiusu said, "Uncle Chang, take him to clean his wounds and change him into clean clothes."

Looking at Chen Qing’s trembling back.

She stared at the lake. Chen Qing must have had a stress reaction just now.

What's in that lake?

Monster? It's not like Mr. Tian raised a water monster, right? How arrogant would he be then?

People are afraid of running into something.

dead.

People are afraid of death.

Stopping her guess, she sat in the main room waiting for Chen Qing.

After a moment, Chen Qing seemed to have regained some of his sanity. He knelt on the ground and thanked Jiusu for saving his life. The next second, he closed his eyes, his face pale and weak.

My shoulders couldn't help but tremble.

No matter who persuades me, I don't want to get up.

"Please, Lord Jiu, take charge!"

Chang Bo helped the man up and brought him a cup of hot tea. "Drink a cup of tea first to warm yourself up. If you have anything to say, talk slowly. With the young lady here, no one will hurt you."

Chen Qing obeyed and drank a cup of hot tea.

Jiusu asked: "Brother Chen Qing, what happened?"

Whenever he recalled it, he felt extremely painful.

Chen Qing said, "I work as a laborer in the Tian residence. I don't like to talk to people. I only have a few close friends. One of them is Hua Ling, a maidservant of Miss Tian. I haven't seen her for seven or eight days. I thought she was sick, so I went to the servants' room to look for her. I happened to see Hua Ling being pushed into the lake and drowned. I went to save her, but was knocked unconscious. You know what happened afterwards."

Jiusu frowned.

In the deep courtyard, it is common for a master to kill a maid. With a death contract, there is no chance of a murder lawsuit. Why should one more maid be killed to cover up the fact?

"What is Miss Tian's personality like?"

Chen Qing thought for a moment, "She doesn't like to go out, and has a gentle personality. She will be sent to Shengjing next month. I heard that she is going to marry a high-ranking official."

Jiusu said, "Go back to Chenjia Village first, don't go out, and don't let anyone see you. Don't see anyone except me. I'm going to meet this Miss Tian."

Chen Qing exhaled, knelt on the ground, and bowed deeply: "I thank you for your great kindness on behalf of Hua Ling."

Tianfu.

It’s the Tian Mansion again.

Jiusu continued to go to Xiu's house. The snow at the door and in the yard was clean. Seeing Xiong Che sweeping the snow, she smiled and greeted him, "Is Sister Xiuying here?"

"Inside the house." Xiong Che said.

Jiusu pushed the door open, took off his cold cloak and hung it on the hanger. Xiuying said happily, "Jiusu, you're here? Sit down quickly. I've been bored to death these past few days."

Jiusu felt the pulse and said, "You look good."

Xiuying held her hand and talked about the trivial things in the past few days. She opened her eyes wide and approached the woman: "Are you worried about something?"

"Yeah." Jiusu sighed, "I saved a man today. He said that he saw Hua Ling die and was about to be beaten to death by Master Tian. I was wondering why Hua Ling died."

Xiuying recalled: "Oh, Hualing, I remember the maidservant next to Miss Tian. These are all old stories. I didn't tell you before because I was afraid you would be upset. In fact, I have been holding it in my heart for a long time."

Thinking about what happened in Tian Mansion.

She was unhappy.

It's like a dark cloud floating around, making it hard to breathe.

Jiusu said: "Sister Xiuying, do you know? Can you tell me about it?"

Xiuying's eyes flashed with coldness, and she clutched her clothes tightly to avoid being so nervous.

"At that time, I had just married into the Tian family. Grandpa Tian was not doing his job and was not at home. I was a person who could not sit still, so I wandered around the mansion. I saw Mr. Tian enter Miss Tian's room, and heard the sounds of men and women having sex. At that time, I was just a new bride after all, so I left with disgust. Afterwards, I went to find Miss Tian and encouraged her to report to the police...

You know what? She said something that I still remember.”

Jiusu suppressed his anger. This old man was worse than a beast: "What did you say?"

Xiuying sneered: "She said, sister-in-law, how do you know that those officials are not one of the culprits."

Jiusu's hands and feet have been cold for several years.

This means that Miss Tian at that time was still... She didn't dare to think about it.

She said in a deep voice: "I will go to the Tian Mansion to find Tian Wan in a while. I guess Hua Ling witnessed something similar to Master Tian and was killed to silence her."

Xiuying's eyes lit up and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but tremble.

"You, want to help her?"

"Help! Help to the end!" Jiusu said in a firm tone.

Xiuying pursed her lips and tears fell down. At this moment, the haze hidden deep in her heart finally saw the sunlight. She buried her head in her shoulder and cried.

"Woo woo woo, Jiusu, I knew you were a good person."

Jiusu chuckled: "Sister Xiuying, please don't give me the good guy card. If it weren't for you, this breakthrough would not be possible. Before I leave here, I have to protect my property and friends and catch all the bad guys in one fell swoop."

Xiuying asked: "After a while, we will also go to Shengjing. Xiong Che wants to be an official. Do you believe it? He is actually a juren."

Xiong Che heard the crying and ran in. He was afraid that the cold air on his body would disturb the child, so he could only stand outside and asked, "Why, it doesn't look like a child?"

Cry and laugh.

Phew, women change their attitude so quickly.
