Looking for you in reincarnation
Chapter 68 Her Identity
Wei Hu and Wei Bao immediately looked at Zhao Mie, their faces slightly tense. Wei Hu asked, "Which Ning family?"
Zhao Mie picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said, "Ning Ji is on the wanted list."
Now, Wei Hu and Wei Bao’s eyes lit up, there was a reward of one hundred gold!
Although they had enough food and drink for the time being, they were very poor and had little money. There were not many fat sheep among the robbers, and the daily expenses of the mountain stronghold were also quite high.
Seeing their expressions, Zhao Mie knew what they were thinking, so he slowly added, "And that woman with a 500 yuan bounty."
At this moment, their eyes lit up even more. "Really?"
Zhao Mie said, "Just stay in the guest room at the back. But don't make any plans for now. I know what you're thinking. This money might be hot and hard to handle."
"Brother, this is a total of six hundred gold! It can be exchanged for sixty thousand taels of silver, enough for us to live a carefree life for several years!" Wei Bao was very excited, as if he saw six hundred gold floating towards them.
Although Wei Hu on the side didn't say anything, his expression also expressed the same meaning.
Zhao Mie put down his wine glass and continued to eat peanuts with his chopsticks. "We are bandits, and we are going to capture people to collect the bounty? Aren't you afraid that the government will arrest us?"
Wei Hu spoke up, "Brother, we can let others hand over the person to collect the reward. Why should we do it ourselves? We can just keep an eye on it and get the reward back."
Wei Bao quickly seconded the proposal and nodded, "That's right, second brother is right."
Zhao Mie didn't say anything and continued eating in silence.
But Wei Hu and Wei Bao were a little anxious, "Brother, you are not still worried about that little favor, are you? If you want to accomplish great things, why should you be so concerned about small details?"
They knew a little about Ning Ji saving Zhao Mie, but they didn't think it was a big deal since he was not from the village anyway.
After a long while, Zhao Mie finally put down his chopsticks and said, "You guys go into the city first and get some information. Find out if they're wanted just for stealing the herbs. I have a feeling this isn't a simple matter."
Wei Hu and Wei Bao pondered for a while and agreed to do so first. As long as the eldest brother agreed to take action, it would be fine. But before taking action, it would be better to find out the news clearly. Anyway, the people are in this village.
At that moment, the two of them hurriedly ate some wine and meat and then walked down the mountain.
In the guest room in the backyard, after Si He took the medicine, she was carried to the bathtub and soaked in the medicine. At the same time, Ning Ji gave her acupuncture again.
Outside the door, several servants were guarding closely, listening carefully from time to time to try to find out what was going on in the room.
Ning Ji pretended to be unaware of the little movements outside. The most important thing right now was to treat her.
He naturally had other intentions in choosing this mountain village as his base.
……
In Lingcheng, there are many pedestrians coming in and out of the city gate, but due to the recent strict inspections, whether entering or leaving the city, it is very slow, and the officials check very carefully.
Wei Hu and Wei Bao disguised themselves and followed the crowd into the city.
Although the government had launched many sieges on Jiulian Mountain before, they had always concealed their faces, so the government officials did not know their true identities.
After entering the city, the two found a busy inn to stay in and secretly inquired about various news.
At this time, many people in the city were still discussing the bounty. After all, the bounty was too high. This place was not like the wealthy big cities in the central area. A few hundred gold coins were an unattainable amount of money for many people, and no one could resist being tempted.
The brothers Wei Hu and Wei Bao pricked up their ears to listen, and just as they were about to interrupt to find out more, they saw a group of police officers rushing towards the street with great momentum.
Their hearts suddenly tightened, thinking that their whereabouts had been exposed and they had been discovered, but they saw that this group of officers was heading towards the brothel opposite.
Mingyue Tower, an official brothel.
The business here is quite prosperous and there are many customers in the building, so when the police rushed in, many people were frightened and their faces changed, thinking that something big had happened here!
But they came with a clear purpose, and asked the local brothel owner to hand over the person by name.
Now, many people are curious about who the officers want to arrest.
Such a big fuss, could it be the woman on the wanted list?
But after carefully inquiring about the name, it turned out that it was not her, but a woman named Si Rong, who is also the Yanhong girl here.
When Si Rong was caught, her clothes were disheveled and her face was terrified. It was obvious that she had no idea what had happened.
"Are you the sister of the wanted criminal Si He?" The chief officer stared at Si Rong's face. Although this woman was pretty, she didn't look like the person in the portrait at all, not even a little bit.
Si Rong was a little panicked when she heard this, "Yes, yes..."
"take away!"
The officer was too lazy to waste time talking. He waved his hand, told his subordinates to arrest the man, and then walked out.
"Sir..." Si Rong screamed in panic, "I didn't do anything wrong! I'm innocent..."
But it was no use what she said, as she was taken away by the officers.
This was originally an official brothel. When the officer ordered someone to be taken away, there was no need to say anything and no one would stop him.
The people around immediately looked around curiously and talked about it.
When the brothers Wei Hu and Wei Bao saw the police coming out of the brothel quickly with a prostitute in their custody, they couldn't help but go forward to inquire out of curiosity.
After hearing this, I couldn't help but be surprised.
It turned out that the woman on the wanted poster was once a daughter of an official, the daughter of the county magistrate of the fallen Fuqing City. The prostitute was the sister of that woman, who was also the daughter of the county magistrate. However, because of the involvement of her husband's family, she was demoted to an official prostitute.
Because Fuqing City had fallen a long time ago, it was difficult to find out the news. Only today did we find out the identity of the woman on the wanted list. Following the clues, we found out that there was actually a member of the Si family in Lingcheng.
Of course, they have to be caught first, just in case they are useful. After all, they are sisters from the same family.
When Si Rong was brought back to the government office, Gao Hua, the county magistrate of Lingcheng, had been waiting there for a long time. He was waiting to bring this person to the imperial master to report his achievements. Although she was not the wanted woman, she should be useful.
But to Gao Hua's disappointment, this man was useless, knew nothing, and had a bad relationship with the wanted Si He. After all, they were not from the same mother.
Gao Hua was a little angry. After hesitating for a while, he decided to lock him up temporarily. If he rashly sent him to the Imperial Master and failed to provide any clues, it would only anger the Imperial Master. He had to think about it again.
The brothers Wei Hu and Wei Bao in the city continued to secretly gather information. After careful investigation, they learned some incredible news.
It turned out that it was the current Imperial Master who ordered the government office to issue a wanted order. In other words, it was the Imperial Master who wanted to arrest the person, and the government office was just cooperating!
If this is the case, then this matter is not simple!
What on earth did those two steal that alarmed the Imperial Master and caused him to personally track down and arrest them?
