Chapter 758: Her Daily Business Trip
Another seven or eight days passed, and it was midsummer.
A Bao followed Feng Sui to the irrigation canal and witnessed with his own eyes what Feng Sui had said: it was exceptionally hot this year.
After patrolling the wheat fields of Zhaocheng with a worried look on her face, she returned to the villa, only to see Yan Haixi, who had been waiting in the study with a grim look on his face.
"But are there any new clues in the Yang family murder case?"
Before he finished speaking, A Bao, who had just entered the study, received the case file handed to him by Yan Haixi.
Yan Haixi explained, "The Zhaocheng Yang family is the largest medicinal material merchant in Qingzhou and Jingzhou. Five years ago, Mr. Yang handed over the family business to his second son, Yang Ji. Later, as the business of the Yang family medicine shop became better and better, Yang Ji donated money to help beggars on the street."
Hearing this, A Bao guessed, "Then, the beggar disappeared for no reason?"
Yan Hai hushed his voice coldly: "According to the confessions, at the beginning, most of the beggars rescued by Yang Ji were assigned to the Yang family manor to take care of the herbs, and there was nothing unusual. Until a year ago, the beggars rescued by Yang Ji disappeared one after another. It was also from then on that the Yang family's medicine shop often sold inferior goods as good ones - this means that the Yang family's medicine business is either greedy and makes money by illegal means; or the money used by the Yang family to grow and purchase herbs is insufficient."
"But after the Yang family was exterminated, the prefect of Zhaocheng searched the Yang Mansion carefully."
"All the gold and silver disappeared."
Having said this, Yan Hai said sternly: "Want to gamble? Where did the Yang family's huge amount of gold and silver go?"
A Bao, who had just finished reading the case files, followed suit: "Old rules."
After she finished speaking, she handed the letter paper from the desk to Yan Haixi.
In the quiet study, the only sound is the sound of writing.
After a long while, Ah Bao was confident of victory. He exchanged answers with Yan Haixi and said, "The Yang family was just pushed to the front by the instigator as a tool for making money. As for the beggars..."
His expression gradually turned colder, and A Bao looked at Yan Haixi thoughtfully.
Commander Yan's face was as gloomy as ice, and he continued, "The Yang family has been running a medicine shop for generations, and they have many rare flowers and herbs in their collection."
Although he was hoping for rain, the vague sense of impending wind and rain made Abao irritated.
Suddenly, Yan Haixi hinted at something and said in a deep voice: "Zhuozhuo really likes playing with that boy."
Hearing this, A Bao followed Yan Haixi's line of sight and looked into the courtyard through the window.
A Chong was squatting beside the cat's bed, teasing the chubby big white cat.
Zhuo Zhuo helped the young man Mu Gui to sit under the flower vines to bask in the sun. It was unknown what he mentioned. The young man was stunned for a moment, then pursed his lips and smiled.
This smile is more like Bai Muliang of those days.
Yan Hai paused, and said, "A few days ago, Zhuozhuo told me that Mu Gui mentioned that his mother died in childbirth and he was raised by his aunt."
"Aunt?" A Bao frowned alertly.
Over the years, Yi Yan's disappearance has always been a major concern for her.
Now, the possible son of Yi Yan has surfaced, but what if Yi Yan has really passed away for many years.
A Bao searched through his memory for people who might be Aunt Mu Gui, thought hard, and finally locked on one.
"Perhaps, Mu Gui's aunt is Xu Ying."
The black-clad assassin from the night before was the barbarian warrior Golden Scorpion, and the patterned jade pendant of Pei's shadow guard Vulture also reappeared.
Who on earth could convince Pei's shadow guards and the barbarian warriors to join forces?
Who wanted to kill her back then?
According to what Wanwan said later, she witnessed with her own eyes Xu Ying maneuvering between Bai Rong and Yi Yan in the Barbarian King's City.
And Xu Ying was close to Pei Guichen, so naturally she could quickly get help from the Shadow Guard leader Vulture.
At this time, Yan Haixi added another question: "The young man looks like his father. We know his background at first sight, and it is easy to connect Mu Gui with the assassination. Why did Xu Ying dare to let Mu Gui appear in front of you?"
Ah Bao had a guess in his heart: "Perhaps the mastermind behind this is hoping that I will recognize that the boy is Bai Muliang's son."
"But, they have been dormant for sixteen years, why did they choose to take action now?"
This year there is no so-called Gengjin month and time that Pei Guichen mentioned.
The peach blossom forest in the snow valley was also safe and sound.
But when he thought about the fire-starting talisman that Zhuozhuo had drawn that actually spontaneously combusted, Abao couldn't help but become more worried.
Seeing that Ah Bao looked gloomy, Yan Haixi consoled him, "The more moves the instigator makes in the dark, the easier it will be for the Pacification Office to follow the clues and find the thieves' den."
Before he finished speaking, an anxious call came from outside the study!
"Mom! Mom! It's full moon! Come and have a look! It's full moon and the baby is about to be born!!"
Following the sound, A Bao opened the stained glass window completely, and saw Zhuo Zhuo nervously rushing into the medicine room holding the white cat.
Ah Chong also waved at her expectantly: "Mom! Come quickly!!"
A moment later, the herbal incense sticks lit in the medicine room on the second floor of the villa were fresh and fragrant.
Following Zhuo Zhuo into the medicine room, the young man Mu Gui silently watched the lady in the rouge brocade dress, and gently taught Zhuo Zhuo step by step how to comfort the big white cat Man Yue who was restless due to abdominal pain.
