Xin You's mind was filled with the horrifying scene of the murder of the owner of Yaxin Bookstore, but there was nothing strange on her face: "If there is one person who is dissatisfied with Qingsong Bookstore, it is Mr. Ping An."
"Mr. Ping An?" He Qingxiao didn't read much of the story and didn't pay much attention to the famous Mr. Ping An.
"It is estimated that the sales of Mr. Ping An's new book were very poor, causing Yaxin Bookstore to lose a lot of money. Mr. Ping An was fired not long ago. That day he came to our bookstore and asked to see Mr. Songling by name. He was angry after being rejected by shopkeeper Hu. Leave.”
Xin You found out, and when he knew the result, it was too easy to find a reason for the result: "Mr. Ping An was originally sought after by countless people, and ended up like this. He must be resentful towards Qingsong Bookstore..."
More than just resentment, looking at the way he was killing people crazily in the picture, it was already distorted.
"Thank you, Miss Kou, for reminding me. I will arrange for someone to investigate Mr. Ping An first."
He Qingxiao left Qingsong Bookstore and immediately ordered his men to check for Mr. Ping An.
Shopkeeper Hu walked up to Xin You and said, "My boss, the boss of Yaxin Bookstore gave me six hundred taels of silver notes."
Xin You knew that it was only a matter of time before He Qingxiao found out the truth after having a target, so he was in a good mood and said with a smile: "The amount is not small. The shopkeeper should keep it in his account."
Shopkeeper Hu was a little panicked.
The amount is not small, but boss, you can't treat that bastard differently just because of this!
The old shopkeeper immediately decided to reveal the man's true face.
"Six hundred taels of silver is a lot, but it's nothing compared to the losses our bookstore has suffered."
"Shopkeeper, please be patient. After this hurdle, our bookstore will definitely make more money in the future."
"As long as my boss is here, I don't have to worry."
Therefore, my boss must not get married and have children early!
"My boss, do you know what's going on in Wu Dong's family?"
Xin You sat down at the counter: "Tell me the shopkeeper."
"His father used to run a rice shop. He was not very kind in business, so people came to the shop owned by our old bookstore owner to buy rice noodles. Their shops collapsed, and his father also died of illness. At that time, Shen My boss was still young, and after a few years of hard life, he somehow became the son-in-law of an official, and opened Yaxin Bookstore opposite our bookstore..."
Shopkeeper Hu briefly talked about the feud between the Shen and Wu families and the rise of Wu Dong's family, and finally got to the point: "That boy made a good living by becoming a son-in-law, but he was dishonest and secretly raised an illegitimate wife."
Xin You kept listening with a smile, but became cold when she heard this.
"Master, please take a seat. I'll keep the banknotes first." Shopkeeper Hu was completely relieved and went about his business with a smile.
Jinlinwei is good at finding people, and he quickly found out the whereabouts of Mr. Ping An.
The once-famous book writer who was fought over by major bookstores was actually reduced to writing letters home to people on the street.
That street was in Dongcheng, not far from where Ergou begged.
He Qingxiao took the millet over and quietly identified it.
"That's him!" Guzi recognized him at a glance and was very excited.
"sure?"
"It's him, I won't admit it." Gu Zi said firmly.
He Qingxiao nodded to his men.
Several Jinlin guards immediately walked towards Mr. Ping An who was writing a letter home.
Mr. Ping An looked up when he heard the movement, panic flashed in his eyes: "You are——"
"Jinlin Health Office, please come with us."
"What did Xiaomin commit?" Seeing that he was surrounded by several Jinlin guards and there was no possibility of escape, Mr. Ping An asked forcefully.
As for the person who asked him to write a letter, when he saw this situation, he ran away without asking any questions.
"Let's talk about it back to the Yamen, take it away!"
Two Jinlin guards held down Mr. Ping An's shoulders, one on the left and one on the right.
In Shuntian Mansion, Shuntian Mansion Yin was stroking his beard and feeling worried.
There are a lot of people missing and dying in the capital every year, but with such a sensation, there are very few people staring at them with countless eyes.
There is nothing wrong with dying, but to die at the gate of the Imperial College is really harmful!
"Sir, Master He is here."
Shuntian Fuyin was a little surprised: "Did you say something?"
They, Shuntian Mansion and Jinlin Guards, have always been on the same page. It was strange enough that Jinlin Guards took the initiative to send people to spread rumors before, so why are they here again?
As a normal and upright Beijing official, Shuntian Prefecture Yin did not want to deal with Jinlin Wei Chang, especially Beizhen Fusi.
"They said they caught the suspect who killed the deceased in front of the Imperial Academy—" Before the subordinate who came to report could finish his words, he saw Shuntian Prefecture Yin rushing out.
"Master He." Shuntian Prefecture Yin rushed to He Qingxiao and said, "I heard that you caught the suspect. Where is he?"
"I just caught him and have been brought here."
When the governor of Shuntian heard this, he got angry.
Was it confirmed that the other party was the murderer before even being interrogated?
He Qingxiao added: "We also brought witnesses who witnessed his murder that night."
Shuntianfu Yin:!
Are there even witnesses?
Wait, doesn't this mean that the identity of the deceased has been found?
"The deceased——"
"The deceased was a beggar named Ergou, who often begged in the Yanzi Alley area..."
Listening to He Qingxiao talking about the relevant information of the deceased, Shuntian Prefecture Yin's eyes went straight.
In other words, Jinlinwei found out the identity of the deceased, found witnesses, caught the murderer, and, yes, even sent in the people who spread rumors to stir up trouble...
Shuntian Fuyin was in a very complicated mood.
Of course, no matter how complicated his mood was, it was impossible for him to refuse such a pie falling from the sky, and it was natural for He Qingxiao to stay and observe the trial.
Mr. Ping An refused to admit it at first, until the little beggar Guzi appeared and told exactly how he stunned the two dogs and took the people away that night.
"What else do you have to say?" Shuntian Fuyin slapped the table.
Mr. Ping An seemed to be drained of all his strength and fell to the ground. His wide eyes were full of unwillingness: "Qingsong Bookstore forced me! If they hadn't caused me to lose my way of living, why would I kill someone? It's all that Song's fault. Mr. Ling wrote "Painted Skin"! He wrote the demon book, why don't you arrest him, why don't you go?"
Mr. Ping An's crazy questions echoed in the lobby, and the murder case finally came to light.
At this time, Concubine Shu finally waited until Emperor Xingyuan came to Hanli Palace.
When she heard about the commotion outside the palace, she originally wanted to use the rumors to destroy the disgusting book, so as not to have a lump in her throat when she thought about it.
Unexpectedly, my niece-in-law was suppressed by He Qingxiao, the governor of Jinlin Guard.
Concubine Shu held back her anger and waited to see the emperor to give the nosy boy a few "kind words". Finally, she got the chance.
Concubine Shu quickly went out to greet you, saluting gently and gently: "Your Majesty."
Emperor Xingyuan didn't set foot in the harem very often. As the second prince, Prince Qing, grew up, Concubine Shu took care of the harem again. She wanted to give Concubine Shu some dignity and would always come to her palace every few days.
"No need to be polite." Emperor Xingyuan walked in and glanced at the extraordinarily gentle Concubine Shu out of the corner of his eye.
Speaking from experience, this woman is going to file a complaint.
