One of the female generals of the Yang family

[Chapter 51] Mr. Guqiao has a secret secret

Everyone knows that 'Guqiao' has a wide range of businesses.Qin Xue stepped into the silk and satin shop, pretending to choose high-quality materials, deliberately asking about the old styles that were brought to the palace in previous years, and the new styles that were supplied to the royal relatives.

Seeing that she came alone, but wanted to inquire about these goods, the boss came to greet her personally, led her into the back room, pointed to the large mahogany lacquered table and high shelf, "These satins were paid tribute to the palace in previous years. The style, girl, see if you like it."

Wearing a dome cap, Qin Xue didn't show her face, she stared at the room and looked around, pointing at a few horses at random, "This, this, that." Wrap them all up for me.

"Okay, girl, wait a moment." The boss thought she would buy in large quantities, but he didn't expect that she only picked four or five satins.

"Are there any styles for this year?" Qin Xue called the boss over.

"There are rules in this village. The style of the tribute this year can only be sold in April next year. If the girl wants it, come back next year." The boss spoke politely. Seeing that Qin Xue was not shy about the tribute, he became more speculative.

"You silk and satin shops are all businesses under the 'Ancient Bridge'?"

When Qin Xue said it just now, the boss was surprised, "The shop is self-operated."

"Self-operated?" Qin Xue snorted coldly, "Dare to say this in Changping, it can be seen that 'Guqiao' has no time to take care of you."

"What does the girl say, the little one can't understand." The boss was feeling uneasy, "It's okay for the girl to speak directly."

Qin Xue looked sideways at the door, but there was no idler coming in. She suddenly took out a dagger and pressed it against the boss's neck, "Then I'll just say it straight, I picked off your eldest son's hands and feet."

The boss slowly clenched his fists, but said in a cold voice, "I don't understand what the girl said."

"I live in the East Wing on the second floor of the 'Julai Inn', tell your eldest son, I will wait for him." Qin Xue put away the dagger, glanced at the shop owner, and walked out of the silk shop.

Qiao Su gritted her teeth angrily in the darkroom of the 'Ancient Bridge'.The eyes had been gouged out, which should have been very hideous, but he covered them with a white silk, and dressed in white clothes, which seemed a bit elegant, but unfortunately, he had to be fixed in a wheelchair before he could move.This inconvenience made him hate those humiliating days even more.

"Are you sure you are from Liao?" He tilted his ears and listened carefully to the report of the kneeling man in front of him.

"It's not like that." The owner of the silk and satin shop recalled: "I can't see the girl's face, and the conversation and clothing are like the Song Dynasty. They are just doing things by means, and they are quite like the women of the Liao Dynasty. The young ones dare not make wild inferences."

"Okay." Qiao Su raised her head slightly, "I'll meet her tonight."

"My lord, be careful of fraud." An old man beside Qiao Su bowed and persuaded, "It's better for the old man to send someone to find out the details of that girl first."

"No need, that girl dared to come to see me like this, why didn't I dare to see her?" Qiao Su lowered her head slightly, recalling the people she saw in those days, but she never heard that a Liao woman had contact with him, But when they were rescued by the Yang family, they vaguely remembered one or two women.

As the cold wind fell into the night, Qin Xue sat in the dark room, listening to the sound of patrolmen downstairs walking through the market, and looked outside the house, another layer of snow fell, but it fell intermittently, and there was always a sense of unfinished meaning.

When the knock on the door sounded, Qin Xue stood up and picked up the dagger at her waist. She was still tense, but at this moment she eased up a lot. She thought, Qiao Su is really a person with brains, she doesn't listen blindly, and she doesn't act impulsively.

Before the door was opened, Qiao Su gently pushed the door open, and he smiled faintly. After waiting for a long time, he realized that this seemed to mean "please enter the urn".Two big men walked in first, carrying a man in a wheelchair in their hands, they put the man down gently, and walked out of the room with a slight bow.Qiao Su's appearance surprised Qin Xue quite a bit. Her initial impression of him was that smelly and dilapidated state, but now he is so elegant, it is really unimaginable.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?" Qin Xue couldn't help admiring him when she saw him rushing to meet her unsuspecting, but took a step forward with a knife in her hand.

"I'm already dead, how can I be afraid." Qiao Suzhi's words were profound, but they were very similar to Qin Xue's thoughts back then, which made her feel a little kinship.

"I came up with this method because I had something to ask you. It may have accidentally brought back bad memories for you. I'm really sorry."

Qiao Su sneered, "What memories? Memories are things that I forget and remember again. I have never forgotten the humiliation of those days, and it always seems to have just happened. How can it be a memory. Are you right? Qin Feng."

"You know who I am?"

"Although my eyes can't see, my ears are rare and clear. I can recognize every sound, especially the benefactor's voice. How dare I forget it."

Qin Xue lowered her head slightly, "I'm not your benefactor."

"Really?" Qiao Su interrupted her, "Risking my life to snatch me from Yelumu is not a kindness, but I, Qiao Su, are too ungrateful." His expression, tone of voice are cold and indifferent.

Seeing what he said, Qin Xue was quick-witted, "Since you said that I am a benefactor, then I want you to do me a favor, will you do it?"

"How can Qin Feng not know the current status and situation of 'Guqiao'? How can my Qiao family have the ability to help you?"

"The thing I want your help to do is related to the 'Old Bridge'."

Qiao Su tilted her ears slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but her face was cold, "If you want to persuade the Qiao family to surrender for that emperor, then don't waste your time."

"The Qiao family really wants to rebel?" Qin Xue took a step forward holding the dagger.

"Rebellion? Why is the Qiao family rebelling?" Qiao Su looked a little excited, "Except for a few ordinary servants in the Zhuangzi, there are people who are struggling in the business field. Tell me, why should we rebel?"

Qin Xue covered her mouth and tried her best to relieve the surprise in her heart without being noticed by Qiao Su. After a long time, she was finally able to speak calmly, "Then, why did those rumors arise suddenly? Why didn't 'Guqiao' explain?"

Qiao Su calmed down, regained her indifferent expression, and instinctively turned her ears to talk to Qin Xue, using this to judge the emotions of the people in front of her, "The Qiao family is just a commoner, and they are so criticized, but they can't argue for themselves. The government and the Qiao family can still complain. Now, the emperor has sent Qin Han of Xungu Zhuang to investigate the matter personally. Qin Han never asks the person involved, but just investigates from the sidelines and follows them secretly. Our Qiao family really has no chance to speak gone."

"So that's how it is." Qin Xue seemed to have a sudden realization, put the dagger back on her waist, and approached Qiao Su, "I will personally explain to the emperor about the 'Ancient Bridge', so you can rest assured. , Qin Han is old, and many things are no longer carefully considered. In the future, I, Qin Feng, will investigate the matter of the "Ancient Bridge", and if there is a need for the eldest son, please help him."

"That's natural." Qiao Su nodded slightly, "If Brother Qin Feng can clear the Qiao family, then the Qiao family owes you another favor."

"Young Master, you are serious. I don't know where Master Qiao is? There are some things that Qin Feng wants to ask the old man face to face."

Qiao Su's face darkened, "My father was devoted to the Song Dynasty, but he did not expect to get a reputation of 'treason', and now he is so angry that he fell ill, paralyzed on the couch, unable to get up."

"Since that's the case, I'll ask Eldest Young Master for advice in the future." Qin Xue cupped her hands and Qiao Su nodded slightly.

There was a knocking sound outside the door, and two big men pushed the door open, standing on both sides of Qiao Su, one of them respectfully said: "My lord, the time has come."

Qiao Su nodded, and the two lifted him out of the room.Qin Xue hurriedly turned around and gasped for breath, her palms were already dripping with sweat.She slowly turned her head to look in the direction where Qiao Su left, and felt extremely terrible.

She picked up the evidence collected by Qin Han from under the bed, leaned close to the snow on the window, looked through the light of the moonlight, and understood what Qin Han said better. The matter was very complicated and involved too much.She put away the scrolls, lit a fire, and leaned on it in a daze.

It is too difficult for Qin Han to make a mistake. Now that he believes that the Qiao family is going to rebel, there must be something wrong with the Qiao family.However, Qiao Su did not admit it, and showed her a weak attitude, nothing more than treating her as another spy sent by the emperor.Now, after some clever debate, I just want to buy some time for this 'treason'.

For such an important matter, Qiao Su, as the eldest son of Guqiao, should bear the brunt of seeing him. However, these facts verified by Qin Han all mentioned him, and never mentioned other members of the Qiao family, not even a few words from Master Qiao. nothing.Qin Xue had just tested him and said she wanted to see Master Qiao, but he prevaricated her by saying that she was seriously ill and difficult to see others, leaving no leeway, even at such a critical moment as 'Ancient Bridge', even a little bit of the same Everyone in the Qiao family had no intention of discussing it. It is definitely not a normal behavior for one person to refuse arbitrarily.

There are three other sons in the Qiao family. Where are they? Why didn't their eldest brother come forward to solve the disaster of the 'Guqiao'? Or, like their father, the three of them all got 'seriously ill' at the same time?Can't meet people?

Qin Xue only felt that things were strange, which was beyond her imagination.

The plan for now is to stabilize Qiao Su first, pretend to believe everything he says, and trust Qiao's family in everything he does and decides. Only in this way can he see things more clearly, and the deepest truth, It must be related to Song Xiang's life experience.

On the second day, when the sky was light and the city gate had just opened, Yang Shun came down from his horse and entered Changping with Yang Yong's identity document.

He searched along the street, but he didn't know where Qin Xue had landed, so he had to take shelter from the cold in the tea house and rest, sitting on the second floor by the window, and looking at the market situation.A touch of white clothes flew in front of him, Yang Shun hurriedly chased downstairs, and when he dragged the woman in front of him, he realized that he had identified the wrong person. He was too worried and missed. Looking at the backs of everyone, it was all Qin Xue, and gradually became a little bit obsessed.

"Yang Shun?" A voice came from behind him.
