On the way, Xu Jiaojiao remembered a question.

"You said, will this group of people come to the door to blackmail and Sun Yuan be killed? Will the two have anything to do with it?"

She was secretly transmitting a message, which more than a dozen big men could not hear.

Liao Qing pondered for a while, "If the instructor behind the scenes was the same person, those two times were for money, wouldn't it be repeated?"

This seems to make some sense.

Some things are not conspicuous, but it is precisely because of these things that it is easier to judge the results.

Liao Qing said again: "Can you guess how long did Sun Yuan die at that time?"

Xu Jiaojiao thought for a while, "About half a day?"

After half a day, plus their time to travel, these two incidents are about one day apart.

Killing people in front and coming to the door.

Could it be that the gambling house owner knew that Sun Yuan was dead, so he sent someone to bully the orphan and widowed mother?

How could the gambling house owner know that Sun Yuan is dead?

Or, it was the gambling house owner who sent someone to kill Sun Yuan?

This is not impossible!

However, all this is just speculation, and they have no evidence.

"According to common sense, since the murderer has robbed and killed people and has succeeded, he should not come to the door to extort again."

"Or, I didn't find what he wanted, so I came to my door again?"

"I've asked before, is there no treasures or particularly valuable items in his house?"

"If you say it's just for money, you shouldn't force it again and again, right?"

How could I come to my house again if I didn’t get it for money?

The robber has no such thing as this? I found that I had robbed the space and was unwilling to give up, so I went to someone else's house to ask for it?

This is called something wrong.

It was just a robber, so I just snatched the next one, so why bother me?

That is to say, these two things are not related?

Pure coincidence?

How can it make people feel disbelief?

Xu Jiaojiao thought so hard that her head hurt. Finally, Liao Qing said, "Don't think about it. This is Jinyang Mansion. Of course, there are people who investigate the case. Do you still want to interfere in the matter and investigate this case to the end?"

Xu Jiaojiao realized it instantly.

Forget it, there are naturally some people who investigate the case. She is going home and is in a hurry to see her parents.

When he arrived at the government office, the prefect was not here and went out to rescue the disaster. A government chief came forward to receive the reception.

Seeing more than a dozen men being taken over and two corpses, I was shocked and asked quickly:

"Who are you? Why have you arrested so many people and killed two? Do you know that killing people will pay your life?!"

Liao Qing said: "These people were ordered to come to the door to disturb trouble, and the two killed were their own fault, because they maliciously offended the princess."

After saying that, he took out his waist sign and handed it over.

The waist tag Daxiang sent to third-rank officials was copper-based and miscellaneous. In addition to proving the holder's identity, it also recorded the holder's facial features, which is quite complete.

With Liao Qing and Xu Jiaojiao's current popularity, there are only a few people who don't know about Daxiang. The minister took it and took a look, hurriedly knelt down with his subordinates, and said:

"Secretary of the Lord Princess, see Lord Du! I wonder if the two great masters came, the Lord Princess offended him."

"Well, get up."

Liao Qing said, "This group of people claimed to have been instructed by the boss of Changsheng Gambling House and went to blackmail the Sun family's money. I'll leave it to you now. I hope you will deal with it impartially!"

"Please rest assured. When the magistrate comes back, the subordinate will report truthfully and investigate the murderer behind the scenes!" The chief of the court agreed repeatedly.

Liao Qing nodded and said, "There is another thing. We found nine corpses at the foot of Hengji Mountain. The deceased was named Sun Yuan. The others should be guards. We must also find out this matter!"

The head of the court was shocked, "What happened? Thank you for your advice. The official immediately sent someone to find out and will not let the murderer go!"

Liao Qing nodded.

The minister immediately ordered someone to take the dozen or so big men with panic expressions to prison.

Seeing this, Liao Qing and the others bid farewell to the minister and declined his banquet at the same time.

When we returned to the inn, everyone was already waiting for the meal.

So they sat down and had supper together.

During the meal, Master Ji asked Sun Yuan briefly about it, and then asked the two of them for leave, saying that he suddenly remembered that a classmate and friend lived here. He had not seen each other for many years. He wanted to see him, if Xu Jiaojiao and others were

If a person leaves tomorrow, he will have to leave later. Anyway, he has snow sculptures, so he can catch up.

This is a trivial matter, and Liao Qing and the others naturally agreed.

Erya again suggested that she wanted to go out for fun, and it was her first time in Jinyang Prefecture City.

This matter is even smaller, and Xu Jiaojiao agreed.

But in the end, in addition to Erya, there are Che Zhengting and Eer who go out to play.

Well, this is a causal relationship, not surprising.

After dinner, the three of them ran out happily.

Xu Jiaojiao checked the situation of the carriage and was thinking about whether she would go out to play, but someone came to visit.

This man is of medium figure, ordinary face, a bit rough, and has a beard, followed by a middle-aged and elderly man with a melon-skin hat.

As soon as the two met, they worshiped each other.

"Secretary Jin Yuming, pay homage to Princess, Lord Du!"

It turns out that this person is the current prefect of Jinyang Prefecture!

He was not wearing official uniforms and didn't look gentle. He brought an aide. If he hadn't introduced himself, Xu Jiaojiao would have thought that this was a mountain boss who brought the accountant to discuss business.

Liao Qing said: "Get up, Lord Jin is looking for us. Is there anything wrong?"

Jin Yuming said: "Xiaguan just returned from the countryside. When the prefectural chief heard that the two adults came to our mansion, the Xiaguan was the landlord, so he should welcome the two adults."

Liao Qing: "You're welcome, Lord Jin, we've had a meal."

Jin Yuming: "Then go out and sit down? The officials have always admired the great achievements of the two adults and admired them all, but they are just a matter of squandering one's fate. Since we are lucky enough to meet today, I would like to ask the two adults to give you a face? There is nothing else in the officials.

It means to do the whole of the friendship of the landlord."

Is this person very pleasant to speak?

Liao Qing actually wanted to know this person, so he said, "Then it's going to be a blessing for Lord Jin."

Jin Yuming said happily: "Why did Lord Du say this? This is Jin's blessing. Please, two sirs!"

So, Liao Qing, Xu Jiaojiao, Ji Master, and the other party got on the carriage together.

Xu Jiaojiao is now free and calm down to take a look at the street scene.

It was already evening, and the lights were getting up. Although Jinyang Mansion was not in the eyes of the court, in modern terms, it was too low and not in the stream. But it was a mansion, and the city was still quite lively, with so many people.

Night market stalls have been put on one after another.

The most conspicuous ones are the snack stalls, such as cooking cakes, scallion tea, oil cakes, steamed buns, fried buns, wontons, glutinous rice balls, candied haws, etc., which are very diverse.
