Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

"run?"

Although Su Bai had planned to escape after her identity was exposed countless times before, when the moment came, she hesitated.

To be more precise, she didn't want to run, or she was reluctant to run.

"What if I don't run?"

Zhou Beiwang said that these 33 people had been assigned to various companies in Tianlong County and Linhua County, and there was not a single one in the Longxing Garrison Regiment.

Moreover, this person has already released the news and will not take any action after this. There is no way and no conditions to find him.

"But..." Su Bai didn't know what to say. She didn't want to tell Zhou Beiwang about the pharmaceutical manufacturing matter. Although Xu Tianyi had been helping Su Bai with work in the past few days, he didn't tell her what he was doing.

"What's going on in the Confucius Mansion?" Zhou Beiwang asked Su Bai.

Several concubines gathered together to play cards every day and rarely went out. There were not many servants in the Kong Mansion now, so they didn't know the news yet. Su Bai learned the news when Yuan Yuze went to various villages to inform farmers in the past few days and he had to go in and out of the street several times every day.

"Don't let Xu Tianyi leave your side, wait a while." Zhou Beiwang laughed again, "Don't be afraid, I don't think you need to worry too much about this matter. The police station is now investigating the case based on rumors. Besides, there is a housekeeper Kong in the Kong Mansion. He is likely to help you suppress the rumor and prove your innocence."

Zhou Beiwang didn't know why Kong Dai helped Su Bai.

But he thought that the last time he killed Yan Xi was enough to prove that he was on Su Bai's side. As for what his purpose was, he didn't need to think about it. Anyway, Xu Tianyi was protecting Su Bai, so at least there was no danger.

Guard captain Gao Hu would also help when Su Bai was in danger. Although Kong Chen's task was to monitor Su Bai, he would never let Su Bai get into trouble for no apparent reason.

"This Kong Chen," talking about Kong Chen really makes people speechless. He monitored himself so directly and without any concealment. Perhaps except for warlords and bandits, no one would make something that should have been done secretly appear to be open and aboveboard.

"Just wait, your aunts will cause trouble for you soon." Having said this, Zhou Beiwang smiled, with a gloating smile.

"Are you disgusting enough to even laugh?" Su Bai said as he raised his hand and slapped Zhou Beiwang on the arm.

"Ah, what are you doing..." Bi Yuming pushed the door open and walked in, just in time to see Su Bai hitting Zhou Beiwang: "I'll come back later?"

"Come in and sit down. I have something to ask you!" Zhou Beiwang asked Bi Yuming to sit down and asked him if he had heard the rumors about Su Bai on the street.

"I don't know if it's a rumor or not, but if you need my help, just let me know."

Su Bai quickly said, "No thanks, Director Bi."

Bi Yuming always spoke profound principles. If it concerned the interests of the party and the country, he would perform his duties conscientiously and act impartially no matter what the matter was. If it was a private matter, there were no such things and he would help in any way he could.

"The young lady is very wealthy. I have been living in Longxing and I cannot avoid the young lady's care. I will inevitably be bothered by her in the future. As long as it is the young lady's private matter, please feel free to speak up."

Su Bai looked at Zhou Beiwang, and he actually nodded!

Su Bai knew that the people in the Military Control Commission were very powerful, but she really didn't want to provoke them or get involved with them.

There was one thing that Bi Yuming might really be able to help with, and that was the conflict that was about to break out between him and Kong Chen.

The field belonged to the Kong family, and Kong Chen had no share. Relying on his connections and guns, he not only took away a large amount of food, but also took a considerable portion of the profit from Kong Zhengliang.

These profits actually came from the grain handed over by farmers, and Kong Zhengliang sold the grain to various grain stores for cash.

This is also mandatory. These grain stores dare not offend Kong Chen, and they have to charge them whatever Kong Zhengliang sells to them.

Isn’t the Military Control Commission here to rectify military discipline? There is also a Military Control Commission member around Kong Chen, who is Bi Yuming’s superior. What Kong Chen did is a violation of military discipline.

Thinking of this, Su Pai changed the subject: "Maybe in the future, I will really need Director Bi's help!"

"I am honored to serve the eldest young lady!"

After returning to the Confucius Mansion, Su Bai entered the lobby in the front yard. These days, except for things happening in the basement, Su Bai had become accustomed to sitting in the lobby to handle and deal with various affairs of the Confucius Mansion.

Su Bai has not yet started recruiting a few new male servants. She plans to recruit a few people she trusts this time. She has already decided to recruit them from Niu Shijiu's village.

I have helped reduce their burden, and these honest people will surely be grateful. It is hard to say whether the people who recruited them into the government are loyal enough, but at least they are obedient.

However, this will have to wait until I have dealt with Kong Chen.

Su Bai had just sat down on the armchair when Guo Deyi ran in.

Zi Yan was right. Whenever he showed up, something bad would happen.

"Young Madam, something bad has happened. The streets are full of rumors about our Kong Mansion!"

"Is it about me?" Su Bai asked calmly.

"No," Guo Deyi said. He and Kong Dai had both heard the rumor about Su Bai being the fake young mistress. Kong Dai told him that it was purely people who had a grudge against the Kong family who were making up rumors.

What Zhou Beiwang said was indeed correct, Kong Dai was indeed suppressing the matter.

But this is only temporary. Soon those concubines will find out, and then there will be another quarrel.

"Whose business is that?"

"It's the eldest and second young ladies..."

"What happened to the eldest lady and the second lady?" Su Bai stood up.

Kong Man and Kong Yun went to Zuihuayuan several times in the past few days. They have become the biggest joke in Longxing City these days. The daughter of the Kong family visited a brothel!

Su Bai understood that, coupled with the rumor that she was the fake eldest lady, these two major events in the Kong family were enough to make the whole city happy for a while.

You don't need to ask to know that this was all caused by the second lady Kong Yun. She took Kong Man to Zuihuayuan to find Tietou.

I told them not to go up the mountain, but they didn't listen at all. They went to find Tietou to ask him to take them into the mountain.

It must be because Tietou had something to do and didn't agree to them, so they went there several times.

"Where are they now?" Su Bai asked.

The eldest daughter, Kong Man, was in her own room in the east backyard, and the second daughter was not in the house.

"She must have gone to Zuihualou again!" Su Bai slammed the table hard, causing the tea bowls on the table to rattle.

"Go, bring her back to me. If she doesn't obey you, tie her up and bring her back to me!"

Guo Deyi was about to go out after receiving the order, but was called back by Su Bai.

Forget it. Guo Deyi is going to Zuihualou to find the second young lady. She will definitely not come back with Guo Deyi. If Guo Deyi forcibly kidnaps her back, it will add a new topic for the people of Longxing City.

"As soon as the second young lady returns to the Kong residence, take her to the backyard immediately!"

Su Bai brought Zi Yan back to the backyard, but the second young lady didn't come back until lunch time. Could this little bastard really have gone up the mountain?

There was no other choice but to ask Guo Deyi to go to Zuihuayuan to see if the second young lady was still there.

After a while, Guo Deyi brought back the news that a security guard from Zuihuayuan told him that the second young lady and a man named Tietou from Zuihuayuan had left in the morning.

As expected, we entered the mountain.

"Madam, take a look at this." Guo Deyi took out an envelope and handed it to Su Bai.

The envelope read: From Su Bai, the eldest lady of the Kong family.

"Where did it come from?" Su Bai asked.

Guo Deyi said that a child had just handed it to him outside the Confucius Mansion.

Su Bai tore open the envelope and found only a piece of paper inside with a line of words written on it: At noon the day after tomorrow, deliver 1000 yuan to Xishankou. You come alone, Kong Wangshi.

What the hell, asking me for 1000 yuan out of the blue?

Who is Kong Wangshi?

As I asked this question, a sense of foreboding flashed through my mind.

Zi Yan whispered beside her: "Young Madam, Kong Wangshi is... the Second Madam."
