What Qi Bai said made sense, and Shen Qianshan did think so. This matter was not as easy as it seemed on the surface, and the impact was far greater than he imagined.
"That means that most of the people here are actually controlled by Gu insects, right?"
Shen Qianshan originally didn't want to make it so clear, but the current situation seemed to be the only result.
These people have a way of winning people's hearts, and there must be people behind them to support them. It seems that this matter is getting more and more troublesome now.
Shen Qianshan didn't look very good, and now it seemed that even Qi Bai, who had rich experience, couldn't determine what was going on, so this matter became more serious.
"Sir, the governor of the capital is here."
Shiyi has been standing guard outside, and now Fu Yin is here. Finally, someone who can take charge of things has come.
"Let him come in, I have something to tell him."
This matter was originally within the scope of his responsibility. The matter was already so serious, but he could still sit firmly in his official position and remain motionless. What else could it be if it wasn't malfeasance
"I'm going to pay my respects to the prince."
"Get up, do you know what the situation is here now?"
Shen Qianshan no longer had a good tone towards the people in front of him. There was no news at all about such a big matter. As an official, he was definitely incompetent.
"Xiaoguan dare not hide it. This matter was not taken over by Xiaguan. It has been a long time. Until now, there is still no definite solution. Xiaguan is also at his wits' end."
After the previous Fu Yin was dealt with, this new person was replaced. Logically speaking, if there are valuable people to show off to him, he should not be so courageous anymore and dare to deceive superiors and deceive others. But this time things are not the same. There has been such a big fuss, how dare he stand here and say that this matter has nothing to do with him
"This matter is a long story, please tell the prince slowly."
In fact, he is caught in the middle now. It is difficult to be a good person on both sides. There are many other tasks suddenly and inexplicably added to the above. He has submitted memorials several times, but all of them have been returned without exception. He does not know what to do. When he was about to leave the city to check the situation, things happened one after another.
After all, there was no murder case outside the city. Compared to the thefts and murder cases in the city, he could only deal with the matter at hand before making other plans.
Just after finishing the matters at hand, he rushed outside the city. Unexpectedly, it was still a step too late. Shen Qianshan had already stationed people here in advance.
…
When Gu Qiang went to Jiang's house for the second time, Gu Huaian already had a treatment plan for Jiang Yu, but no one else could be around, as they might interfere, so Gu Qiang could only go out for a walk.
The place where Jiang Yu lives now is still very close to the backyard. Although he does not live with many family members in the backyard, he walked to the lotus pond within a few steps, where two children were kneeling respectfully. Maid.
Gu Qiang was indeed bored and curious, so she wanted to go over and take a look, but she didn't dare to get too close and just listened from a distance.
The two maids looked quite young, about fourteen or fifteen years old, and they both had their heads lowered. Gu Qiang didn't know the expressions on their faces, so she simply changed her angle and sat near the rockery to watch. play.
After all, Jiang Ning is standing there now, and she wants to know more about him. Maybe it will be helpful to this matter.
The two little maids seemed to have committed something. If nothing else, Jiang Ning in front of her had an angry look on her face, and she was definitely angry.
Gu Qiang, this is how you have the opportunity to take a look at Jiang Ning.
It has to be said that Jiang Ning's appearance is actually very good. She is seventeen or eighteen years old, but she still has a baby face and a rosy complexion. She looks very different from the person who burned paper in the garden last night. His eyes were clear and he seemed quite energetic.
The clothes she wore were also very particular. After all, she was a girl from a wealthy family. Even her embroidered shoes were so exquisite. Even from a distance, Gu Qiang could tell that the materials she wore were of great value.
In comparison, the beautiful sisters and sisters around her were indeed much more glamorously dressed than she was, but they did not look as elegant as she did, nor did they look like ladies from a wealthy family.
What makes Gu Qiang feel strange is that the carnelian bracelet that Jiang Ning was wearing yesterday is missing now.
When Gu Qiang saw her yesterday, his eyes were almost entirely attracted to the bracelet on her hand. And she seemed to be very precious about the bracelet. Why was it missing today
"Come on, who took my stuff?"
The application on Jiang Ning's face was extremely angry, and even the gold-plated hairpin on her head kept shaking out of anger, as if it was about to fall off.
The two maids kept kneeling on the spot, not daring to say a word. Gu Qiang did find it strange. It was normal for a young lady from such a wealthy family to lose something. She just started to check the people around her, but No matter how you look at the outfits of the two maids in front of you, they are from the kitchen, right
However, one of the maids, even though she was wearing kitchen clothes, had a beaded flower on her head that was particularly conspicuous.
Gu Qiang changed her angle and took a closer look. It was indeed similar to what she had guessed. This little girl was indeed quite pretty.
The girl next to her kept her head down, not daring to look left or right, but she kept her head down and kept looking at the path next to her with her peripheral vision, as if she was waiting for someone.
Jiang Ning seemed to be aware of this, clenching and unclenching her fists, as if she was holding back something.
"She's just a maid working in the kitchen. Where did the beads on your head come from?"
This sentence was not spoken first by Jiang Ning, but by another young lady on the side. However, the tone was not kind, and it sounded like sarcasm.
"Everyone in this house knows that this girl was originally a servant in eldest brother's room. She didn't know why she was assigned to the kitchen because she made some mistakes. Could this bead flower be given by eldest brother? ?”
Gu Qiang clearly noticed that something was wrong with Jiang Ning's expression. "Don't talk nonsense. This cheap servant girl stole this pearl flower. How could it be given by my eldest brother?"
After hearing this, Gu Qiang was even more sure that his previous guess was correct.
In Jiang Ning's heart, Jiang Yu is probably a very special existence.
There may even be some abnormal feelings...
"Xiao Cui, did you hear my jewelry box this morning? Is there anything missing?"
"There is a carnelian bracelet missing, and the other slaves didn't pay much attention."
"Did you take it? If you can give it to me quickly, I can spare you."
Jiang Ning is not as knowledgeable as the people around her. She just wants to find her own things now.
After hearing this, the maid shook her head repeatedly, "Miss, I really didn't take your things. Could it be that you forgot to put them somewhere?"
How many times had Gu Qiang seen her expression like this before? As long as they are pretending to be innocent, most people will behave like this.
This trick probably only works on men, but unfortunately, there are only women in this area, so her trick definitely won't work.
However, if this girl really took Jiang Ning's red bracelet, and the house was turned over and her body was searched, where else could she hide it
Gu Qiang hadn't rushed over yet, and had been watching from behind the two of them, wondering in her heart where the red bracelet was hidden.
"If you hand over my things now, the most I can do is kick you out, but I won't kill you all."
Jiang Ning was already patient and said the last word. If she drives this girl away now, the bracelet will definitely not be found.
"Why does my sister care so much about that bracelet? It's just chalcedony, and there's plenty of it on the street, right? Why don't we just send this girl to the official, and you can just buy another one."
The women next to them seemed to be tired of watching the excitement and did not want to continue watching this farce. Anyway, this matter was most likely that this girl had an affair with Jiang Yu and offended Jiang Ning, so she was sent away. In the kitchen, he had a grudge against Jiang Ning, so he naturally came to steal things.
"Hey, it's quite lively here."
Gu Qiang walked out from behind the rockery on one side and looked at the women in front of her with a smile.
Because Gu Huaian ignored them, they also temporarily lost interest. At this moment, a young and handsome young man suddenly appeared, and they must have been attracted to him again.
"Mr. Gusu, why are you here?"
"I originally came with Brother Gu today. He already had a way to cure Brother Jiang, so I accompanied him to take a look. He didn't want others to disturb him while he was doing the acupuncture, so I ran out."
"Master Gusu is so kind to his friends."
…
With the sound of a woman's voice ringing in his ears, Gu Qiang paid more attention to Jiang Ning, who was a little anxious over there.
"What do I think it is? It turns out that Miss Jiang Ning has lost something. Lingyin Pavilion can still get things like carnelian. Why don't you borrow some flowers to offer to the Buddha and give them to Miss Jiang?"
Of course Gu Qiang said this to test. She wanted to see what kind of reaction Jiang Ning would have after hearing this.
"No, I just need my original string."
Jiang Ning had no regard for human feelings when speaking, and she was now able to maintain the most polite attitude.
"In this case, it's easy to handle. Why don't I help you find it."
After Gu Qiang said that, she pulled out the wooden hairpin from the head of the person kneeling on the ground. She tied it up and her hair fell down. Gu Qiang dug into her fallen hair and got it as expected. Bracelets.
