Chapter 117 Intelligence(2/2)
"That's all? Did Jiang Xinglong say anything else?" Ji Xiaotang asked Gu Xiaer.
"That's all, he said repeatedly, as if he was crazy." Gu Xia'er shook her head and said. There were still some words that Gu Xia'er couldn't speak.
Jiang Xinglong is a useless person, and Gu Xia'er appeared after she got married. This is also one of the important reasons why she insisted on leaving the Jiang family.
Although Jiang Xinglong is a useless person, he does not give up and always wants to recover one day. For Jiang Xinglong, everything else is small, only one, only a big thing. So after getting drunk, he unconsciously said it in front of Gu Xia'er.
"Does anyone in the Jiang family know that you have heard these words from Jiang Xinglong?" Ji Xiaotang asked again.
Gu Xia'er shook her head again. She knew that the matter was serious, so she was very careful and did not dare to let people know. Even when she came to the Ji family today, she deliberately found a good excuse.
Seeing that Gu Xia'er was very confident, Ji Xiaotang nodded gently.
"You're doing a good job," said Ji Xiaotang.
Gu Xia'er quickly glanced at Master Ji Er.
Mr. Ji Er did not look at Gu Xia'er, as if he was thinking.
Gu Xia'er was a little disappointed, but she didn't dare to reveal anything.
"You go back and continue to inquire, but you must be careful. Don't tell others about these things again. Don't talk about them, either, uncle and uncle." Ji Xiaotang said.
"I know." Gu Xia'er nodded. Of course she knew that these things could not be told to Mr. Gu and Jiang.
Ji Xiaotang's words were also quite a deportation, but Gu Xia'er was reluctant to leave.
"There is one more thing." Gu Xia'er said again.
"What's the matter?" Ji Xiaotang asked.
"I originally wanted to tell you the day when Changsheng Xiu San was alone, but Jiang Qiaoer kept following me. I was afraid that she would be suspicious and did not let go..." Gu Xia'er said.
She was deliberately delaying time, but she didn't dare to do it too obviously. Even Ji Xiaotang didn't realize it, just thinking that she was because of nervousness.
"A few days ago, a servant from the Jiang family left to feed the horses."
"Yes." Ji Xiaotang nodded and signaled Gu Xiaer to continue.
Master Ji Er raised his head at this time and glanced at Gu Xiaer.
Gu Xia'er pinched the handkerchief in her hand and spoke smoothly.
It was not a big deal to leave a servant who was a rough man, but the servant stole a bag of silver when he escaped. Even so, he reported it to the yamen and chased it everywhere.
But strangely, Jiang Qingshan did not report to the official and issued a ban order to prevent his servants from mentioning it.
This is the case on the surface, but secretly, Jiang Qingshan sent many people to capture the escaped servant.
"I happened to hear my father-in-law say a few words, saying that it doesn't matter if the money is lost, and people cannot lose it. If you see someone and cannot take the living, you will take the dead. My father-in-law also said that whoever gets the person will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver."
Fifty taels of silver are not a small amount. Jiang Qingshan made such a big move for a escaping envoy, but he kept it from outside and refused to report to the official position. There must be a lot of articles inside.
"I think it's strange, so I want to tell..." Gu Xia'er couldn't help but secretly glance at Master Ji Er again.
Mr. Ji Er was frowning at this moment, and the sunlight shone in from the window, falling on Mr. Ji Er's face.
Gu Xia'er was a little crazy.
"Tell me, tell Xiaotang." Gu Xia'er swallowed.
"What's the name of that servant?" Ji Xiaotang asked, "Besides feeding horses, what other errands do he usually do?"
"I heard that the surname Ma is Ma, and everyone calls him Ma Wu. Apart from feeding horses, I don't know what he does." Gu Xia'er's family has not been long and has not had the chance to get in touch with these. "However, I heard that Ma Wu doesn't seem to be a serious person. He often steals dogs and eats meat, but can kill pigs and horses. The servants with him are said to be afraid of him."
"Jiang Qingshan has found this Ma Wu these days, but are there any clues?" Ji Xiaotang thought about it and asked again.
"I heard a word in a daze, and didn't know if it was true or not. I said that I was probably heading to the city." Gu Xia'er said.
Ji Xiaotang asked Gu Xiaer a few more words, but he gave up when he saw that he couldn't ask anything again.
"Go and see if the old lady is awake?" Ji Xiaotang beat the little girl and went to Old lady Ji's yard.
The little girl came back and said that Old Lady Ji was awake. Ji Xiaotang asked the little girl to accompany Gu Xiaer to see Old Lady Ji.
"If you are idle, stay for dinner." Ji Xiaotang said to Gu Xiaer.
Gu Xia'er left happily.
Ji Xiaotang, Master Ji Er and Master Ji San sat around and discussed.
"Dad, what is the connection between our blessed land and the Jiang family?" Ji Xiaotang asked this question first.
If there was no cause, Jiang Qingshan would not be so persistent in the Ji family's blessed land. You should know that there are many people who are jealous of the Ji family's blessed land, and there are many powerful people among them, but no one will have the intention of robbing them for themselves.
