Chapter 512 513 Bad
Zhou Jia got the evidence that the Cheng family and Feng Zhifu colluded to sell iron ore, so there was no need to check other evidence. He told Ruyi and Anwei that they didn't need to go back to the inn, and planned to take them to Qingyue Mountain early the next morning. .
wrote another letter and asked Zhaocai to go to the post house and asked the soldiers of the government to hand over the letter to Wu Tongjing, telling him to take people to check the counties and towns below.
Thinking of the woman who sent the letter, they were afraid that the Cheng family and Feng Zhifu would search for her whereabouts after they found out that they were gone, and said to Ruyi, "Go to Tongluoxiang, take the Wu family couple to the grocery store, and let the people from Chushan Find somewhere to hide them."
After Ruyi responded, he left and went to Tongluo Alley. When he arrived at the alley, it was pitch black. Ruyi climbed the wall and entered the Wu family yard, waking up the Wu family. The couple was protecting the child and looked at Ruyi with fear. , "Little brother, everything that the young master gave has been given to you..."
Ruyi raised his hand and smiled: "Don't be afraid, sister-in-law, the government will soon be looking for you everywhere. It's not safe for you to live here. I'll take you to a safe place."
The woman looked up at her husband, and when she saw the man nodded, she said, "Okay, let's go with you."
The woman packed up a few changes of clothes, followed Ruyi to the grocery store, and the shopkeeper placed them in the secret room.
Zhou Jia asked all the dark guards in the inn to withdraw from the inn, leaving only the escorts on the bright side in the inn.
The Cheng family sent to follow the people who came out of the post inn, but they all returned in vain. The people who monitored Zhou Jia saw that there was no movement in the post inn until it was dark, and they couldn’t hold it any longer. In the inn, it was discovered that there was no figure of the imperial envoy in the post house, only the guards were left in the post house.
Cheng Shan hurriedly asked people to look for the surveillance person to inquire about the situation, and learned that there was a woman talking to Ruyi at the gate of the courtyard at dusk, and the distance was too far to see what the woman looked like.
After the people in the inn saw a woman, they all ran away, Cheng Shan and the eldest prince felt bad, "Uncle, go to Feng Zhifu quickly and ask him to ask the guard to find out what kind of woman she is. Have you been to the inn? Hurry up and send someone to find this woman."
Cheng Shan went to the prefect's yamen overnight to ask to see Feng Zhifu. Feng Qingzheng slept soundly with his concubine in his arms. He was startled when he heard the report of Cheng Shan's late-night visit. Shan, immediately asked, "What happened in the middle of the night?"
Cheng Shan's face was gloomy, "The imperial envoy and his personal guards are gone. I heard from the person watching him that a woman went to see his housekeeper at dusk."
Feng Qing looked at Cheng Shan with a questioning face, "After a woman went to see them, the people disappeared, did this woman tell them anything? They just left, and quickly let someone find this woman. What's the use of you coming to me?"
Cheng Shan said solemnly: "My people didn't see the woman's appearance, so I came to you at midnight! You bring the government soldiers on duty at dusk and ask about the woman's appearance, we will It's time to find that woman."
Feng Zhifu nodded with a gloomy face, "You go back first, and I'll have someone call the government soldiers on duty."
Cheng Shan cupped his hands at him and said, "Hurry up, I have a bad feeling in my heart."
Two grasshoppers on a rope, Cheng Shan's words made Feng Zhifu's face more gloomy, he nodded in response, and let Cheng Shan be sent away, and hurriedly walked to the front office.
The government soldiers who went home to rest were called to inquire, and the government soldiers replied; "Sir, that woman is of medium stature, about thirty years old, with fair looks, melon-seed face, and willow-leaf eyebrows..."
Feng Zhifu asked people to paint the woman's face, and after showing it to the soldiers of the government, the soldiers felt that they were similar to each other, so Feng Zhifu hurriedly sent the portrait to Cheng's house.
After a while, Cheng Shan got the portrait. Looking left and right, he always felt that he had seen the woman on the portrait before, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't remember it.
Just as he was about to ask someone to ask, the eldest prince had someone call him over.
Cheng Shan arrived at the yard where the eldest prince lived, and after showing him the portrait, the eldest prince said, "Uncle, let us find it quietly. When you find it, ask Cheng Shan to find a name and send officials to search the whole city for the woman's identity. whereabouts."
Cheng Shan felt the same after hearing it, and hurriedly took the portrait to the government office.
Wu Tong heard a report that Feng Zhifu sent officials to search the whole city. When the woman appeared at the entrance of the post house at dusk, he rushed to the government office and resolutely opposed it.
"Master Feng, the imperial envoy, Lord Zhou, left a letter saying that he went to other counties to investigate, and the imperial envoy left the inn on his own, and it has nothing to do with this woman Hao, why did the lord search this woman? No peace."
"Master Zhou left you a letter? Why didn't you report it:" Feng Zhifu looked at Wu Tongju in surprise.
Wu Tongju glanced at him, "Xiaguan went to find you, you have already left."
Feng Zhifu looked at Wu Tongjuan who was stopped there, and couldn't find Mingmu to search for the woman for a while. He understood that no matter what tonight, he would not be able to send officials to search the whole city.
I thought about it again, if the imperial commissioner really just went to various counties to investigate, it would be easier to handle. I was afraid that he had received some news and left, so it would be better to let the Cheng family send someone to look for it in private.
Wu Tongjuan looked at the uncertain Feng Zhifu and thought to himself: Where is this woman coming from? They have dispatched officials to search with great fanfare. What are they afraid of?
Feng Zhifu glared at Wu Tongjuan, turned around and went back to the back office, and had someone send a letter to the Cheng family.
Cheng Shan received the news and had to send people to look for the woman's whereabouts. After dawn, there was still no news. Cheng Shan looked at the portrait and still couldn't remember where he had seen it. He simply took the portrait back to the backyard and let his wife take a look.
Mrs. Cheng Shan took a look, "It seems to be Qionghua, the personal maid released by the third family, yes, that's her."
"The **** who eats the inside and the outside." Cheng Shan scolded angrily, and took the people out of the city to a house in Chengjia Village.
Someone opened a room, smashed the portrait on the face of the man in the room, pointed at him and shouted, "Tell me, did you let this **** deliver things to the post house?"
The man looked up at Cheng Shan and laughed at himself, "Since my grandfather left, you have let me be locked here, surrounded by your people, unless I know how to escape, how can I send things to the station? Hall?"
Cheng Shan took a step forward, pinched his throat, and looked at him sternly, "Cheng Xu, you'd better tell me honestly where this woman lives, otherwise, your two sisters..."
Cheng Xu sneered in a hoarse voice: "The virtuous master of the Cheng family has finally revealed your true colors. If you have the ability, you will kill all three of our brothers and sisters."
Cheng Shan said gloomily in his ear: "Isn't it too cheap to kill you all? If you don't say it, I will have someone send your sister to a private house when I go back..."
Cheng Xu turned his head sharply, "You dare, grandfather can't spare you when he comes back."
