1599 Understand the Reason

Zhiqin felt a chill go down her spine, the injuries on her body and the fear in her heart made her body tremble involuntarily: "Slave... I know!"

She took the sweet-scented osmanthus ointment bestowed by Concubine You, and limped out of the palace.

Everyone in the palace could see and hear clearly, but everyone pretended that they didn't see or hear anything.

After Zhiqin left, Zhishu, the four maidservants beside Concubine You, walked in with a washbasin...

Gu Xiaowan waited for Tan Yushu's message at home. After waiting for half a day, she saw that Tan Yushu had arrived late, frowning, with a helpless expression on her face.

When Gu Xiaowan saw this, her heart skipped a beat, and she secretly thought it was bad.

Sure enough, I heard Tan Yushu say: "Sister, Wucheng Bingmasi, I can't even get in!"

It turned out that after Tan Yushu received Gu Xiaowan's message, he directly asked Vice General Chen Meng to continue this trip.

Lieutenant General Chen Meng received orders from General Tan Da, and he listened to Miss Hou's orders on this matter at any time, so he immediately went to Wucheng Bingma Division.

How would you know that the Wucheng Bingmasi, who was able to enter last time, could not even enter this time.

Xiang Yuanlin ran directly to the outside of the department, and refused Vice General Chen Meng's request to go in.

He also said that there is a cruel murderer imprisoned inside, and the case must be investigated to give justice to the deceased and restore peace to the Qing Dynasty.

He also said that irrelevant people should not come in and out at will, because the province will affect their decision. He also said that if they affected their judgment, wronged the good people and let the bad people go, they couldn't afford such a crime, and the emperor gave them this responsibility to return the peace of Kyoto.

One or two words, and even mentioned the emperor, leaving Chen Meng speechless and had no choice but to go back.

Tan Yushu didn't have any news, so he could only run over to tell Gu Xiaowan.

"Sister, now we can't even enter the Wucheng Bingmasi. That Xiang Yuanlin clearly wants to take personal revenge. What should we do now?" Tan Yushu asked eagerly.

"I'll go to the Li Mansion first, and see the Li family!" Gu Xiaowan said.

Several people arrived at the Li Mansion.

The Li residence was as quiet as if there was no one there. Kou Hai was sitting in the yard, wiping the sword in his hand. During these days, he was responsible for protecting the safety of the Li family, and he had been coming here all this time.

"Miss, princess, you are here!" Kou Hai heard the knock on the door, and hurriedly opened the door, seeing that it was Gu Xiaowan, a smile appeared on his face.

Seeing that it was Gu Xiaowan who had arrived, the servant at the porter's side excitedly rushed in and passed on: "Ma'am, Ma'am, the county lord is here, the county lord is here!"

When Gu Xiaowan and the others came out, Mrs. Li and Li Miaomiao also walked out with Mrs. Li's support. When they saw Gu Xiaowan, their faces were full of excitement: "Xiaowan, Xiaowan..."

Seeing their affectionate appearance, Gu Xiaowan knew that they must want to know about Li Fan's current situation, but...

Gu Xiaowan forced a smile and stepped forward: "Old Madam Li, Madam, Miaomiao..."

Mrs. Li burst into tears when she saw Gu Xiaowan: "County Lord, I heard that you saved me last time. I, an old woman, will die as soon as I die. It is so dangerous. I have to make you go this far. I feel sorry for you." what!"

Mrs. Li said gratefully, and Gu Xiaowan hurriedly said: "Mrs. Li, don't say that, Uncle Li treats me like an uncle, and you are like my grandmother!"

"Hey, hey, hey..." Mrs. Li rubbed her tears: "Now that Fan'er has such a big incident, we people can't do anything to help. I heard from Miaomiao that you were the one who ran away. After running away, Xiao Wan, thank you for your hard work!"

Gu Xiaowan didn't find it hard at all, but she still hasn't thought of a good way to rescue Li Fan.

Without conclusive evidence, if the murderer cannot be found, it is tantamount to Li Fan's hat of being a suspect will always be on his head, and he might become a criminal one day.

Gu Xiaowan didn't have time to think about other people, so she took Madam Li's hand and said, "Madam Li, before the accident, did Uncle Li mention anything different to you?"

"A different thing?" Madam Li asked back, "What's a different thing?"

"Did you mention whether there is anything strange in Jinfulou recently, and whether Uncle Li has been troubled by anything?" Gu Xiaowan asked.

That Wu Tian betrayed Jinfulou before he left, didn't he say anything to Uncle Li?

"No!" Mrs. Li thought about it for a while, and suddenly, she seemed to think of something: "By the way, before this happened, my head of the family once said casually that I'm afraid it will be difficult to do business in the future!"

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to do business in the future?" Gu Xiaowan frowned and murmured this sentence, but she didn't understand what it meant: "What do you mean?"

"I didn't ask too much at the time!" Mrs. Li regretted unceasingly. She didn't understand this business at all, and Li Fan had been taking care of it all by himself. It was only now that Gu Xiaowan asked herself what she didn't know, and she couldn't help her, and couldn't save the head of the family!

Mrs. Li blamed herself very much.

"Mrs. Li, don't be sad, I'm just asking casually!" Seeing her blaming herself, Gu Xiaowan took her hand to comfort her: "I'm going to be very busy these days, so I don't have time to come and see you, you guys You must pay attention to safety, the You family is the most protective, no one knows what they will do before, it is best for you not to go out these days, I leave Kou Hai to you, he has martial arts , who can protect you!"

"Hey, we know, Xiao Wan, if you are busy, go quickly! But, you must protect yourself! Your identity..." Mrs. Li thought

Gu Xiaowan was also the shopkeeper of Jinfulou, so her heart skipped a beat.

If Gu Xiaowan was confessed and also arrested, what should I do!

A few people said a few more words, and from the beginning to the end, no one from the Li family asked about Li Fan's recent situation, and Gu Xiaowan didn't mention it either.

She doesn't know about Uncle Li's current situation.

Whether it is good or bad, she must find the mastermind of this matter as soon as possible, and give Uncle Li justice. After returning to Qingyuan, she immediately went to see Xiao Shengzi, who had no idea about Wu Tian's betrayal of Jinfulou and going to Suiyu Guzhai.
