I was overjoyed, and I hurriedly ran to the front and said," Let's go, let's go in and ask around." This locust forest could be considered a wilderness, and it was truly strange that there was a family. When we knocked on the door, smoke curled up from the old hut, and a fragrance of rice slowly floated out. It was an old woman who opened the door. She looked us up and down and asked," You are?" Jiang Bo smiled at her and said politely," The two of us came from Shangjing. As we passed by this place, it's inconvenient for us to have bad legs and feet. I hope we can rest and ask for a cup of tea." I asked Jiang Bo softly," What is my Humble Thud?" Jiang Bo said with a serious voice," That's what beauty means." I readily nodded and laughed foolishly at the old woman." Yes, yes, yes, I am my humble thistle." The old woman smiled kindly. She quickly opened the door and politely said," Then come in quickly. The food is just right. You two can catch up." During the tea conversation, Jiang Bo didn't reveal any traces of information about the old woman's family. It made me sigh at his nagging. It turned out that there was still a place for use. Jiang Bo seemed to have been careless as he said," When I came here just now, I saw a mound of graves. Then...... Oh, this...... "Should I ask?" The old woman smiled and said," Hey, what's there that you don' t dare to ask? Not to mention you outsiders, not even a few locals know about it. That tomb is a Aunt Liu outside of the Jia Clan. Sigh, it's also a pitiful person." Jiang Bo asked with interest," Oh? "Is there a story?" The old woman let out a long sigh and looked at the grave outside the window with an old and turbid gaze." Aunt Liu was originally a servant girl of the Jia Mansion. That Jia lost his virtue after drinking, and that Aunt Liu was pregnant again. He gave birth to a male child. Speaking of this male child, he also gave birth. After entering the capital for a The elected, didn' t he come back to build a new tablet for his mother?" The old woman asked. Alas, this sixth aunt was too pitifully dead. She was framed by doctor people to commit a******y with a servant and was beaten to death. The Jia family didn't recognize this person, and the Jia family did n' t allow this The elected to recognize her son's reputation. Therefore, the tombstone could only engrave the sixth aunt's name. This The elected was also filial. He came to pay his respects every year. Oh, he was here yesterday." "Yesterday?" Jiang Bo and I looked at each other and hurriedly asked," Is that Jia Mansion in Bone Xing City?" "That's right. Jia Mansion's going up the river in the Dill Flower Restaurant. It's against the river. That house is huge." Jiang Bo frowned and thought of something. I pulled his arm, thanking the old woman, and then hurriedly left. I excitedly pulled him away and asked," Did you hear that aunty said that The elected had come to the Scholartree Manor yesterday? In other words, that damaged leaf in Ying' er's room might have been left behind by him." He asked," Mm...... Huh? "Why are you so excited?" I stopped and looked at him enigmaticly." Besides, I discovered something." "What is it?" "Jia Mansion's by the river, which means that the The elected grew up on the river. He must be very good at swimming. In other words, he killed Ying' er last night and then jumped into the water to escape." Jiang Bo nodded with a serious expression." Let's tell that county official about this. If we get involved, it' ll be troublesome. I' m afraid we won' t be able to leave." I nodded happily, thinking that once the case was solved, we would be able to leave. We would soon be in Shangjing, and we would soon be able to see Qi Xie. When that time comes, I must introduce Jiang Bo to Qi Xie. When we returned to the Dill Flower Restaurant, Lou Yu was pacing the hall. Guo Bing stood quietly by the side. When he saw that we were back, he hurriedly came forward and asked," How is it? "Any clues?" Jiang Bo was just about to say something when I hurriedly said," Got it! We arrived at the locust tree forest and found a family. We found out that Jia Mansion The elected went to the locust tree forest yesterday. Landlord, did that The elected come to the dill garden last night?" "You' re saying...... Jia Chenxing?" Lou Yu was shocked. ###Chapter11 According to Lou Yuer, Jia Chenxing had a good character and was extremely filial. When he planted the The elected, he even encouraged Jia Yuan to open a warehouse for the villagers in the suburbs. His reputation was extremely good. That Jia was extremely fond of face, so how could Jia Chenxing meet at night in the courtyard. Moreover, Ying' er had entered the Shill Flower Hall as soon as she arrived at Changxi. How could she possibly have an affair with Jia Chenxing? This was completely impossible to say. It was not convenient for Jiang Bo and me to appear. Thus, they had Lou Yuer convey this information to their Lord. Everyone in the Jianghu knew that her stupid Shill Restaurant had the signboard of the Courtyard, but it was actually a Hundred Dawn Restaurant. It was always able to grasp all kinds of information in the court, so it was not afraid that the lord would not believe her. Around dusk, the soldiers of the Shill Flower Hall withdrew. They heard that the Lord had captured Jia Chenxing for trial, and that Jia Chenxing had also confessed. He did not change his expression in the face of the law on the yamen, as if he had given up on death. However, when the great one asked why he had done this to Ying' er, he closed his mouth and said nothing. No matter how he tried to torture her, he only said," I plead guilty to my crimes. I don' t want to open my mouth, but I ask to be executed faster." Lou Yu's expression continued to convey word by word. I used my chopsticks to beat the bottom of the bowl. I couldn' t help but wonder," That's strange. He and Ying' er don' t know each other before. He didn' t escape even if he killed someone. He was caught and even shouted to kill them quickly. What exactly is this?" Lou Yu's face was filled with confusion as he shook his head." Jia Chenxing are decent people. If it wasn' t for the evidence you mentioned, I naturally wouldn' t believe it." Jiang Bo sighed lightly. He reached out and knocked on my forehead, saying," There are so many unimaginable things in this world. Don' t think about it, eat them quickly." I rubbed my mouth and placed a piece of meat into the blooming bowl. After that, I buried my head in my stomach and ate it. Now that the government had withdrawn its troops, it was time for us to set off tomorrow. Seeing that it was not far from Shangjing, I was about to see Qi Xie. When I thought of this, I couldn' t help but panic. I hurriedly took out the two pieces of broken jade and looked at Jiang Bo listlessly. Jiang Bo said helplessly," I' ll cultivate for you tomorrow. Quickly put them away." His words seemed to have given me some reassurance, but the other stone was still hanging and unwilling to fall. I put away the broken jade, turned to look at Lou Yu, and said sincerely," Lord Beauty, I' ll leave Li Cheng matter to you. He's very important to me. You...... Do you want money? "I don' t have it right now, but I will give it to you in the future." Lou Yu's expression crossed my gaze towards Jiang Bo, and his gaze seemed to be searching. Then, he looked at me and said with a smile," Don' t worry, I will definitely do my best in this matter." When I heard that she was so certain, I forcefully nodded my head and calmed my heart. That night, I remembered it very clearly. It was drizzling. I didn't dare to fall asleep when the cold came. Before, someone had assassinated Jiang Bo, and had been accidentally met by me. This time, it was Ying' er from the next room. I always felt that sometimes, death would only be separated by a wall. I tightly hugged him, and the lights in the room hadn' t gone out for a long time, sleeping with my clothes. Everything had passed. Fortunately, I was still alive. Fortunately, I was about to see Qi Xie. After saying goodbye to Lou's foolishness, the five of us hurried off. It had only been half a day since Gu Xing arrived in Shangjing, and he had only bickered with Jiang Bo two or three times. He hadn' t rested along the way, and he was as obedient as before. He opened his eyes wide as he watched us bickering with curiosity. On the other hand, burning the pot cake with fire would avoid causing trouble to the fish and the fish. Without the weight of two people, the carriage naturally moved briskly and traveled all the way to Shangjing. When the carriage drove into the city gate, I looked through the window. It was prosperous, but less elegant. In the capital of the upper capital, under the feet of the Emperor, there was an expanse of prosperity. However, this person came and went, all of them in the city, far from being as unrestrained as the ink painting of the Bone Joy Qu Pill. After finding the inn, Jiang Bo threw the cauldron into the fire and pulled me out to rest. The carriage had bumped along the way, and I was about to fall asleep a long time ago. I didn' t have enough to eat and drink, so I taught him to pull me out, and I couldn' t help but choke in my heart. As a result, he left in a good mood in front of Yushu Linfeng. I followed him and complained. He didn' t get angry either. He turned around and shook around. When he saw a good thing, he showed it to me and asked for my opinion. He immediately put it aside when I said it looked good. I said it wasn' t good, so he smashed the silver. I followed with a bellyful of resentment. I was also in despair. What could I do? He had money, and he was the one who decided. The two of us, no, to be more precise, he was the God of Wealth of Jiang alone, spending money like earth in the Shangjing where the money was burned. As for me, my eyes shone with green light as I watched the gold and silver that he had squandered out from a poor and crazy angle, and my liver trembled from the pain. After passing through an arch bridge, a cool breeze came. The river beneath the bridge was clear and clear. The weeping willow on the shore fell to the ground. On one side of the river was a hawker, while on the other side was desolate and uninhabited. However, the weeping willow on this side was even more verdant. Jiang Bo brought me to a jade artifact shop by the river bank. I immediately thought of the broken jade and ran in front of me excitedly. Jiang Bo saw that I was so happy, I became a little calm. I followed behind without interest.
