The son-in-law is a thief

After Xiaoman, there is Eargrain. At this time, farmers in Hokuriku have begun to scatter seeds on the ground. The life in the field is as fulfilling as the spring rain. However, the arrival of May in Taiping Island is not so exciting, because it heralds the arrival of the rainy season. , the whole island will be plunged into mud. The higher terrain in the north may be slightly better, but the south will turn into a swamp from time to time. This rainy season will be particularly long. It will rain from May until the end of September, and it will last for four months. Fortunately, people here do not make a living from farming, but the weather inevitably makes people feel slack.

Because of the rain, some businesses in Fei County have also stopped, and the market is no longer open frequently, but all of this does not affect the business of Wanshigang, and the buildings of Wanshigang are still busy every day.

"Princess, Luo Qiaoniang is back." Feng Di stood outside the door, and behind her stood a woman in her forties. For those who often work, the woman is dressed plainly, the rough linen clothes of ordinary people. Her shoes and skirt are already soaked, and she is bowing her back waiting for Zhaoyang's call.

"Please." Zhaoyang replied, this is the person she was waiting for, why was she not in a hurry.

Fengdi took a new pair of clogs for Luo Qiaoniang to change into, and the woman entered Zhaoyang's room.Zhaoyang only said that there is no need for so many courtesies, and immediately asked Feng Jian to sit down with tea. Luo Qiaoniang took the tea and bowed her head to thank her. These actions are obviously a person who knows the rules very well, which is not something ordinary women can understand.

"Ms. Luo, I'm waiting for you." Zhao Yang said, even the corners of his mouth curled up.

"The princess loves you so much." Luo Qiaoniang said.

Zhaoyang gave Feng Jian another look, and told the maid to leave the door temporarily, and then said to Luo Qiaoniang: "How is the prince doing now? Besides, is there any clue about the murder of Gaotai in this palace?"

It turns out that this Luo Qiaoniang is none other than a member of Huo Qishan's Green Bee Team. The Green Bee Team was formed when Zhaoyang was still thinking about returning to the city. Most of them were people who survived the shipwreck, and they didn't have strong martial arts skills. , are ordinary people, and it is precisely this way that they can disappear from everyone without too much disguise.

"Prince is as usual, still arguing all day long to fight back to Beilu to recover my Da Zhou." Qiao Niang replied.

"Still so ignorant." Zhaoyang said: "Now that we are alone and weak, wouldn't it be a gnat to shake a tree if we rashly attack Hokuriku?"

"Yes." Qiao Niang also agreed: "Fortunately, His Majesty is an upright man, and will not let His Highness the Crown Prince mess around. But..."

"But what?" Seeing Qiaoniang's appearance, Zhaoyang also knew that she had something to say.

"However, there has been a lot of support for the crown prince in the court recently." Qiao Niang said, her face darkened: "The subordinates have sent people to investigate in many ways, and I heard that there is an aide next to the crown prince."

"Staff?" Zhaoyang frowned. She had investigated Prince Li'an and others. There were a few powerful characters, but most of them were young talents, and they were just people who were just trying to make it to the top.

"Yes, this staff member heard that his surname is Chu, but he lives in seclusion, and his subordinates haven't seen his appearance yet." Qiao Niang said.

"Then how did you know of his existence?" Zhaoyang asked back.

Qiao Niang straightened her body, and then said: "Since the princess left Niangui City, the prince's movements suddenly became more frequent, and he even found a lot of ministers who were close to the princess. As for Her Royal Highness, she immediately attached herself to the prince after she left? That's why the subordinates arranged for someone to guard the vicinity of the East Palace, and finally heard the clue from a groom, and found out this person after a search. It's strange to say, this Chu Sheng After arriving in Niangui City, the sky will gradually change, and I am afraid that it is this Chu Sheng who is behind the plan."

"Since we don't have much information, let's continue to investigate." Zhaoyang ordered.

"Yes!" Qiao Niang got up and saluted, then sat back with her, and continued: "I have also found out the clues about the murder of His Highness Gaotai."

"But what did the prince do?" Zhaoyang said, if it is true that this staff member is so powerful as what Qiaoniang said, then it is not difficult to guess who did it all.

"There is no direct evidence that the crown prince did it, but we did find out the base of Xizuo near the Jinma Market in Wanshi Port, and before the high platform was built, someone from this stronghold went to the county government to sign up to participate in the work of building the high platform."

"Don't startle the snake." Hearing the news, Zhaoyang straightened up. If it was written by that Chu Sheng, these people should have some understanding of that Chu Sheng. Zhaoyang then said to Qiao Niang: " Remember, catch alive."

"Caught alive? The princess wants to cause trouble in my Wanshi Harbor again?"

"Who is it!" Luo Qiaoniang looked around vigilantly. It was also the first time for her to board the Jiutian, which was well-equipped and fortified, comparable to the Princess Mansion, and it was in Zhaoyang's room. Luo Qiaoniang didn't expect that There are people around here.

"Listen to this voice, it must be Master Gu." How could Zhaoyang not recognize this voice, the two of them played chess together for a few games every day, or just had dinner together, so they were naturally very familiar.

"Princess has good hearing." As she spoke, Gu Ruyang jumped in from the window, holding a fishing rod in her hand, and her clothes were already a little wet. The window was facing the sea, but It's not a safe place on the second floor of the ship building.

Zhao Yang looked at Gu Ruyang, she was absolutely sure that this person was not here for fishing, she was prepared for appearing here, after all, the boat with her surname Gu for nine days, how could she not know that Luo Qiaoniang was on the boat?

"Isn't Master Gu here to go fishing?" Zhao Yang picked up a cup of hot tea and took a leisurely sip.

Gu Ruyang threw the fishing rod aside, and sat down beside Zhaoyang very impolitely. She picked up a silk handkerchief next to Zhaoyang and wiped it on her face. After wiping off the raindrops, she said : "Jiang Taigong fished, didn't this catch the news?"

Luo Qiaoniang only looked at the two of them, she was very clear about Gu Ruyang's identity, she is a friend now, but she must be an enemy in the future, so Luo Qiaoniang quietly retreated to a corner, she stood with her head down, no longer talking, but she didn't I don't know why Zhaoyang and Gu Ruyang suddenly became intimate.

"Master, the doctor said that your body can't stand the cold right now." Zhao Yang took the handkerchief from Gu Ruyang's hand and wiped her hair for her: "Why don't you just ask me if you have any questions."

"You little fox, you won't tell me if I ask you." Gu Ruyang pointed to the tea pot again: "Ma'am, pour me a cup of hot tea."

Luo Qiaoniang looked at Zhaoyang, Zhaoyang naturally nodded to indicate that she had done it, Luo Qiaoniang sent the tea, and returned to that inconspicuous position.

Now that Gu Ruyang knew about this, Zhaoyang didn't hide any more, and she asked directly: "Since the head of the Gu family already knows about my plan, then what do you say?"

"Just do what you want, I'll let Zeng Shi copy his lair right away."

Seeing Gu Ruyang's proud face, Zhaoyang shook his head again, she asked Gu Ruyang to turn his back to her, Zhaoyang pulled away Gu Ruyang's clothes and looked at her back, Gu Ruyang's body was already recovering After a lot, she nodded in relief.

Zhaoyang said again: "Why don't we come up with another plan?"

"What's the plan?"

Seeing Gu Ruyang questioning herself with doubts, Zhaoyang didn't know why she felt a little happy in her heart, she said with a smile: "Turning the day for the day."

Golden Horse Bazaar

Ma Yisan is also nicknamed Shunfengsan. The reason why he is called this is because his news comes very quickly. What kind of goods will be shipped in Wanshi Port this month? Which big merchants are going to go to sea to pick up goods? Shunfengsan knows exactly how many fish are caught, which fish are more and which are less.Because of this, all the big and small merchants in the Golden Horse Bazaar liked to get close to him. Everyone knew that if the news came earlier, the money would be more.

Today is the opening of the Golden Horse Market again, but Shunfeng San is not as high-profile as in the past, and even looks a little embarrassed. He is sitting on his booth, and the rain is falling straight from the shed on his back. Before the goods, he didn't seem to have seen them. If it wasn't for a reminder from the stall owner, today's goods might not be sold.

"Let me say three, what's wrong with you today?" The stall owner on the side asked, "Why are you listless?"

"It's nothing." Shunfeng San looked impatient.

"Hey, I don't want to ask." The stall owner said, and took out half of the money from his pocket and handed it to Shunfeng San: "Then I will give the money and ask the head office? Where will the merchant be when the market opens next time?" Come? What are you going to buy?"

Shunfeng gave that person a blank look: "I don't know!"

"Hey, it's really weird. How can there be someone like you who doesn't make money even if he has money." The stall owner took back his money and blamed him.

Unexpectedly, Shunfeng sighed heavily, and he looked left and right again, like a deflated ball.

"Master Gu, it's too late."

"what?!"

Shunfeng San reprimanded: "Keep your voice down!"

The man lowered his voice: "What did you say about Mr. Gu?"

"Master Gu's family was burned last time, maybe the wound was infected... I heard from the news," Shunfeng San lowered his voice again: "I'm afraid it won't work."

"Then what should I do?!" The stall owner asked, Shunfeng San's news was never wrong, since he said so today, I'm afraid that Gu Ruyang will really die.

"But I saw Mr. Gu fishing at the bow of the boat when I went out to sea two days ago?" Someone came out from nowhere and joined their conversation.

Shunfeng's face sank, and he said to the person behind him: "Believe it or not, if you don't believe it, don't spend money to buy news from me in the future."

"Then...how did you know?" The earliest stall owner then asked, "There is more news."

Shunfeng San looked in the direction of Gu's mansion, lowered his voice again and said: "They said they were going to worship their ancestors in the family temple, so I guess they would have to go back to her Gu's mansion from Nine Heavens after yesterday."

"Hey..." Later, the man also sighed: "Dang Gu's family can be regarded as a hero among women. This family has not yet succeeded, how can it be gone if it is gone?"

"It's not the princess' fault!" Shunfeng San said, "If it wasn't for saving her, why would Master Gu do this!"

"Speaking of the family temple, I think of one thing." The later person patted his head and said: "Recently, the Gu family is recruiting workers. It is said that the Gu family temple has been in disrepair for a long time. Recently, they are recruiting workers who are good at repairing. I heard that it is quite a deal. The rich, will it be related to this sacrifice?"

This proved Shunfeng San's conjecture again. He kept shaking his head with a look of disappointment on his face: "I hope that nothing will happen to us in Wanshigang, and nothing will happen to Mr. Gu..."
