After transmigrating into cannon fodder, he had sex with the villain

With the cooperation of Gu Zhao and his confidants, those who watched them outside didn't notice Gu Mu's departure at all. When it was dark on the third day, Gu Mu rushed back with a dusty body and a thin bag in his hand. pack.

When Gu Zhao saw the package, he knew that Gu Mu did not make a trip in vain, and he was not in a hurry to ask about the situation. He let Gu Mu take a bath and eat first. He must have not eaten and rested well in the past three days.

Gu Mu was satisfied with being served by his brother, and after eating and drinking, he preached to Gu Zhao: "According to what my brother said, we went there pretending to be businessmen. That village made a living by raising silkworms and silkworms. Mrs. Liu's ancestral house of her natal family It has been empty for a long time, and it was abandoned long ago. We searched it at night, and finally found this package at dawn. Liu Shilian really knows how to hide things. It is estimated that those behind the scenes were also looking for this thing, but after so many years, there is no result. Those people It’s already out of the question.”

Gu Zhao nodded and said, "That's because they didn't expect Mrs. Liu to hide things in the ancestral house of Mrs. Liu's natal family. Mrs. Liu's own house, old and new, may have been dug three feet by those people. Is it the ledger?"

Gu Mu nodded, and his face became serious: "It's the account book from back then. When this account book is delivered to His Majesty, His Majesty will be furious. Less than half of the money back then was in Liu Shilian's hands, but the final charge was Liu Shilian carried it alone."

Knowing that Gu Mu still has feelings for the emperor, Gu Zhao patted him on the shoulder: "Your Majesty should be mentally prepared. Your Majesty has experienced a lot more than us."

Gu Mu raised his head and looked at Gu Zhao: "The next step is to find the money. I suspect that Qiao Xianqing may have guessed where the money is hidden. I will talk to him in person tomorrow, without waiting for him to come to the door."

"Okay, then you should be careful."

When Gu Zhao met Liu Chang and Xiao Shitou on the construction site, he revealed the results of Gu Mu's trip to them so that they would not worry about it all the time. It's only been a few days since I jumped.

Liu Chang was about to cry again, afraid of being suspected, he tried his best to control it. Sure enough, the master is innocent. How could a good man like the master be a corrupt official who killed the people.

Xiao Shitou's eyes were also red: "Does that mean my father is not guilty?"

Gu Zhao felt sorry for Xiao Shitou, he should be a son of an official family, if he hadn't been kidnapped, if Liu Shilian was still in the officialdom, what a high-spirited official's son Xiao Shitou would be, and he would have grown up in rich clothes and rich food since he was a child. A good education may also enter the officialdom in the future, but all of this has been maliciously destroyed.

"I can't guarantee anything else, but the crimes accused back then were indeed framed and framed. If you wait patiently for a few days, there will be results."

Little Stone's eyes became even redder: "That's really great."

Although they are both fathers, a corrupt official father and an innocent father have very different meanings. Xiao Shitou has to recognize his father, but if his father is innocent, then he can walk with his head held high and his chest upright, and behave in an upright manner.

On the same day, Gu Mu sent someone to go to the capital to deliver the letter. Of course, there would be a fast horse on the road every few days, so it was not very noticeable, and no one dared to stop it.

After Qiao Xianqing ate wontons that day, he would pass by that road for several days in a row, but the wonton stand that had been there all year round was gone. What kind of secret is Liu Chang hiding?

Because of worry, Qiao Xianqing lost some weight in the past few days. Today, he couldn't hold back and went to the street where the wonton stalls were set up. He originally planned to take a look at the opposite side before leaving, but unexpectedly, a car stopped on the side of the road. The carriage, Qiao Xianqing was about to get out of the way, but the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the people inside said, "Master Qiao is looking to see if Liu Chang has come out to set up a stall?"

Qiao Xianqing's heart was shocked, he suddenly looked up, and saw a serious face behind the car window, not anyone he knew.

Qiao Xianqing was flustered, but he tried to maintain his composure on the face: "Who are you? Someone Qiao doesn't know you."

The person in the carriage was naturally Gu Mu, he curled the corners of his mouth, Qiao Xianqing was pretending to be confused: "I'm Gu Mu, let's get in the carriage and talk."

The hands hidden in the sleeves trembled. It was really Viscount Pingnan. He had guessed in his heart just now. Now that Gu Mu himself admitted, he didn’t know whether he was excited or panicked, but there was sweat oozing from his forehead. , Qiao Xianqing didn't dare to delay, climbed into the carriage according to what Gu Mu said, the coachman opened the curtain for him, Qiao Xianqing paused and got in.

There was only Gu Mu in the carriage, and he was drinking tea from a teacup. The furnishings in the carriage could not be compared with those wealthy businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River, but in terms of comfort, it was definitely the first.

Gu Mu was sitting there, and poured another cup of tea with the other hand. At this time, the carriage started to move slowly, and Gu Mu signaled: "Master Qiao, please drink tea."

How could Qiao Xianqing dare to drink tea? He knew very well that Gu Mu, Viscount Pingnan, was not very old, even younger than his son Qiao Huan, but his imposing manner was no weaker than the Jiangnan officials he had seen. Because he often stayed by His Majesty's side, he must have been affected a bit, so despite his young age, Qiao Xianqing did not dare to underestimate him at all.

Seeing that Qiao Xianqing didn't dare to move, Gu Mu put down the teacup and said, "Master Qiao, don't worry about anything. It was you who instructed Liu Chang to look for us, so I was able to find the things Master Liu left behind."

"Master Liu really kept something?" Qiao Xianqing said in a broken voice.

"You don't know? If you don't know, you dare to help hide Liu Chang's identity, and point him to find us? Anyway, it's your credit. I'm here to look for you now. Master Qiao should know why." " Gu Mu looked at him and said, he doesn't need to deliberately show any momentum, just like Qiao Xianqing thought, he met either the emperor or the cabinet ministers in the palace, and there will always be something left behind in such an environment.

Qiao Xianqing wiped his cold sweat with his sleeve: "The little one thinks he's smart, the lord didn't blame the little one, it's the little one's luck, dare to ask the lord, what will happen to Wanzhifu in the end?"

Gu Mu sneered: "No matter what happened to Mr. Liu back then, he wouldn't go anywhere. I heard that he was the one who exposed his own Shangguan Mr. Liu."

Qiao Xianqing heaved a sigh of relief. He was most afraid that someone from above would save Prefect Wan. If Prefect Wan was not dead, even if he lost his position, it would be easy to deal with the Qiao family.

Gu Mu obviously really wanted to run the Prefect of Wan, rather than going through the motions.

Qiao Xianqing felt relieved a lot, and asked: "What kind of things does Sir Sir want to know? Some things are just small private speculations, which may not be right."

"I want to know the whereabouts of the stolen silver back then."

Qiao Xianqing's heart was beating a few times, he didn't expect to be so stimulated when he came up, his mouth was dry, he couldn't help but poured a cup of tea into his stomach, and then he said: "Prefect Wan didn't let me drink this, even Whether there is such a sum of money, I have not revealed it to me, but I have been a brother-in-law for these years, and I don’t know everything about him, and I can guess the whereabouts of the money. Prefect Wan claims to be a big The filial son is especially filial to his old mother. On his mother's [-]th birthday, he specially built a temple on the mountain for her, and invited monks to chant scriptures and pray for his old mother. This is a good story in the Jiangnan area. "

"I didn't participate in the construction of the temple that year, but after knowing him for many years, I know very well that his filial piety to the old lady is not as good as what he said, so I can be sure that there must be something wrong with that temple. , and the surname Wan regards it as a family temple, and does not allow outsiders to enter."

"Although I didn't participate in it, I also kept a few thoughts in the past. I found that the wheel marks left by the tires of the cars that transported bricks in and out were deeper than normal, indicating that the things transported on the car were very serious. Eat heavy."

Gu Mu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this: "Are you suspecting that what was transported was not bricks, but gold nuggets?"

Qiao Xianqing's lips were still dry, he licked his lips and said, "Yes, I suspect he used gold nuggets to build the wall."

Qiao Xianqing pondered for a long time at that time, even he doubted his own thoughts, the surname Wan was really so crazy, making gold nuggets into bricks to build walls and temples, even the biggest salt merchants would not show off their wealth like this, of course The surname Wan is just to hide his wealth.

Qiao Xianqing kept this matter in his heart all the time, and would dig it out from time to time, but he never sent anyone close to the temple to check it out. After a few years, he noticed that the surname Wan never relaxed his supervision over the temple. My heart became more and more suspicious.

Gu Mu raised his eyebrows in surprise. It was indeed crazy. If Qiao Xianqing hadn't said it out on his own initiative, it would have been difficult for his people to investigate the temple, and it would be even more difficult to suspect the bricks that built the temple.

"I will send someone to investigate this matter, what else can I say?"

Qiao Xianqing revealed the most important information, and he felt a lot more relaxed. The stolen money alone was enough to make the surname Wan lose his head, and it was impossible to turn over. Therefore, Qiao Xianqing spoke a lot more smoothly next, saying no At least what he observed and figured out, such as greed for money to govern the river, where the dams are used indiscriminately, how many women in the backyard of the rich salt merchants surnamed Wan, those rich salt merchants have honored the surnamed Wan over the years How much money, and which officials are in cahoots with Wan.

Gu Mu admired Qiao Xianqing when he heard it. He actually observed so many things in the sidelines secretly. His thoughts were not deep, and maybe He Wanjia didn't take a merchant like Qiao Xianqing too seriously, and didn't think he was just a merchant. He would betray himself, which gave Qiao Xianqing an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Qiao Xianqing didn't know how many cups of tea he had poured, and belatedly discovered that Gu Mu poured it for him, which made him a little flattered.

At this moment, the carriage also stopped, and Qiao Xianqing had almost finished his speech, and he would have to search his guts to continue talking, so he left very interestingly, and did not mention the matter of his family's attachment to Gu Mu and Gu Zhao, because he has obviously fallen in love with Gu Zhaogu now. Mu's boat.

Watching the carriage drive away, Qiao Xianqing wiped the sweat from his forehead again, and then he felt relaxed after unloading a heavy burden. Those things had been weighing heavily on his heart, and he still had some conscience in his heart. It's not good.
