readx; Xu Nuo knew exactly who was involved in the case, but she couldn't show it in front of Xu Gucheng, so she showed a surprised look, so that he would think that she had accidentally helped him.
Xu Gucheng clasped his hands and muttered: "After listening to the confession of the ice shop shop owner, I realized that they wanted to create rumors. Rumors spread that the cold drinks sold by your three ice shops are not clean. After eating them, people will tremble all over. In serious cases, They will die. Liu Niang, how did you stop them from thinking about this?"
These people have been hanging out in shopping malls for a long time. They have evil minds and have no intention of taking back their bad tricks. Liu Niang can actually shut their mouths!
Xu Nuo was shocked by the speed at which the case was tried. How could those people be recruited so quickly?
Are the ice shop owners too stupid, or are the people who are investigating the cases too powerful?
Many thoughts flashed through Xu Nuo's mind after hearing Xu Gucheng's words. In the end, the only thing he was confused about was why did his father ask this?
Could she mean that she just sneaked into the bedroom while those people were sleeping, held a knife to their babies and threatened them: If they dared to go out and spread rumors, they would cut off their babies. After threatening him, he gagged him, tied him up in the house with a hemp rope, and locked the door directly from the outside. It wasn't until night that he ordered someone to loosen the ties.
If these simple and crude processes were told to his father, he would probably no longer be as kind as he is now, let alone give birth to the idea that his daughter is quite capable.
Xu Nuo did not hesitate and said with a smile: "Dad, this is a business secret, how can you reveal it at will? I'm just treating others in their own way. Otherwise, how could you come up with such a method of creating rumors?" "
"This child." Xu Gucheng sighed helplessly, but did not press for a promise. He said seriously: "Daddy will take care of this matter. Although you were involved before, from now on, don't worry about it anymore." He was really worried. Afraid of being noticed for making a promise and getting into trouble.
In the final analysis, Xu Gucheng trusted Xu Nuo, otherwise Xu Nuo would be in a dilemma if the matter was further investigated.
Xu Nuo nodded obediently and said, "Thank you, dad. I understand."
"Okay, you go back." Xu Gucheng touched Xu Nuo's head with a slight smile on his face.
Xu Nuo stood up and was about to leave. Suddenly something occurred to him. He paused and said seriously: "Dad, I hope you won't tell your mother about this matter."
"This is natural. You can go back and rest."
When Xu Gucheng heard the smile on Mrs. Lu's back, her smile grew stronger instantly. Liu Niang treated her mother as usual, so that was fine.
After Xu Nuo left, he called his confidants into the study and said, "Arrange two people to protect Liu Niang secretly." Liu Niang may be in danger at any time now, and as a father, he cannot let her go.
"Alang, do you need me to check it out?"
Xu Gucheng raised his head, his eyes were as bright as a torch, and he stared at his confidant for a moment before firmly replying: "No, you go arrange the affairs of the secret guards first."
Dalang went to Suzhou. In addition to Su Ye's secret protection, he also mobilized a group of secret guards to follow him south. Now that Liu Niang is in such a situation, the Xu family is in need of manpower.
He couldn't help but feel lucky that he had been operating a secret force all these years, otherwise he might have been stretched thin at this moment.
Xu Gucheng arranged for two people to protect him secretly. Xu Nuo noticed their presence that night and was alert all night long.
Xu Gucheng told her about the secret guards at breakfast the next day, and she finally let go of her worries.
Although this was done with good intentions, Xu Nuo was so worried that he couldn't eat.
She originally wanted to manage Zhu Shang's huge industry without telling everyone, and she also had to find time to make an appointment with Xiao Yuan. Now there are two people following her closely, and she can't do anything, and she doesn't dare to do anything. Do!
She did admit to her father that the property of Zhu Shang and Bianjing was now in her hands, but she only admitted it and did not discuss it in detail. Her father did not let her tell the whole story.
But if her father's people followed her to those door shops and saw the way she handled things, they would definitely be surprised by her change, and they would definitely tell her father.
And that side, she never wanted her parents to know, it was something she absolutely wanted to hide.
If she tried to get rid of the two secret guards when she went out, her father would inevitably become suspicious, and she would have to explain herself again.
Rather than going out, it is better to stay at home.
Xu Nuo was bored at home for a few days.
In the past few days, the case of the Ministry of Industry's misappropriation of Cunbing has been concluded.
All officials of the Ministry of Industry related to this matter were punished, and the Kaifeng Prefecture General Magistrate was directly dismissed from his post. At the same time, the emperor issued a decree to cancel the position of Kaifeng Prefecture General Magistrate.
From then on, among the yamen of the Song Dynasty, only Kaifeng Prefecture had no general judge.
The ice market bidding triggered this case. Lu Yijian's power in Kaifeng Mansion will be more concentrated, and his father will also receive more attention in the Ministry of Industry. The Xu family can be said to have a great victory this time.
One afternoon, Xu Nuo was lying on the couch with her hands behind her head and her legs crossed. Chun Tang was fanning her beside her.
There was a sudden noise at the back window, Xu Nuo turned over and sat up, letting Chuntang go out.
Chuntang responded, exited and closed the door.
Xu Nuo then stood up, walked to the back window and opened it, and Xiao Yuan's smiling face appeared in front of him.
Xu Nuo pulled him into the house and asked, "Why are you here? Didn't someone send you a message? My father arranged two secret guards for me, and now I can't go anywhere."
"How dare you drag me in when you know someone is watching? Are you afraid that your father will ask you about your relationship with me?" Xiao Yuan said, taking out a fan to fan Xu Nuo.
Seeing that he was sweating, Xu Nuo threw him a handkerchief and said disgustedly: "Wipe it off, otherwise Chun Tang will come in later and think I'm covered in stinky sweat."
"Okay." Xiao Yuan grinned. Liu Niang clearly cared about him, but was too embarrassed to say it.
"Did you knock the secret guard unconscious?" Xu Nuo knew that Xiao Yuan would not do anything that would put her in a difficult situation. Since he dared to come in, the secret guard was either lured away or knocked unconscious, but the secret guard was lured away. Wei was too time-consuming, so he would definitely choose to knock them out.
Xiao Yuan nodded with a smile, stuffed the sweaty handkerchief into his arms, and said, "You better understand me. Let's go and take you out."
Xu Nuo took out the handkerchief from Xiao Yuan's hand, put it on the table, and said: "If I give it to you every time, I will use this handkerchief too quickly. You don't need to take it away. I will send it to you when the time comes." Yes. Where are you taking me?"
Xiao Yuan has always loved cleanliness, so naturally he would not return the handkerchief he used to Xu Nuo. Now that he saw that Xu Nuo didn't despise the things he used, his heart felt as warm as the noon sun in July.
"We'll find out when we get there." Xiao Yuan went out with his promise. At the end of the alley not far from the side door of Xu's house, there was a sturdy black horse with a black curtain hanging on it.
Xu Nuo was stunned, frowned and asked: "A horse? How to ride it?"
Xiao Yuan held back his laughter, put the curtain hat on Xu Nuo's head, and helped her straighten it out. When he took her out, he naturally couldn't let anyone know her identity, so he could only force her to wear a curtain hat.
"Let's ride together."
"Together?"
