"Young General Gu, I also..." Li Xianhua imitated He Xiao, bowed deeply, and wanted to run away.

"An An." Just as Gu Junwen finished speaking, Li Xianhua, who was running wildly with his head down, suddenly felt his legs leave the ground, and the force behind his collar was something he could not ignore.

"Brother Li, thank you for following me." Gu Junwen had a smile on his face, looking innocent and harmless.

Poor Li Xianhua had already been frightened by the super-strong girl Shen Anan, and his whole body was trembling, so he had no choice but to agree.

"This woman is so strong, who would dare to marry her in the future?" Lin Lin, who was hiding in the dark, muttered softly.

But after complaining, he still dutifully took out his pen and added another sentence on the notebook before revealing a satisfied look again.

As for what was written, I'm afraid no one except Lin Lin could recognize it, because Lin Lin's handwriting was so ugly.

It was because of the font "advantage" that he was sent to monitor the mysterious Major General Gu.

Lin Lin felt a little proud when he thought of this. His master still appreciated him.

At this time, Gu Junwen, who was standing outside the courtyard wall, had to step into the yard again after thinking about eight hundred things in his mind.

It seems that Zheng Zhonghe wants to clear himself of the matter. This must be a difficult case.

Forget it, since I can't push it off, I'll just wait and see, so that I can report back when the time comes.

She doesn't get paid, so she does the job if she can, and forgets it if she can't.

Gu Junwen put away his expression, Shen Anan threatened Li Xianhua, and the three of them walked into the backyard, one in front and two behind.

When we walked in, we realized that the orientation of the smoke-filled yard was also very good. The yard as a whole faces north and south, and the backyard is well-lit at this time, which should be the warmest and most comfortable time of the day.

Maybe because it was related to a murder case, everyone felt a chill the moment they stepped into the yard.

As soon as Gu Junwen stepped into the backyard, he saw groups of people talking.

The woman in red silk should be Qiu Niang. She was crying helplessly with her face covered.

A middle-aged man who also looked extremely bloated was patting her shoulder and comforting her: "Qiuniang, don't worry too much. You may have hurt yourself by crying, but it will be fine soon."

"This is Chen Youzhi, the former deputy prime minister's favorite student. He writes well and is Qiu Niang's old lover." System 101 whispered in his ear and introduced him attentively.

"Why shouldn't I worry?" Qiu Niang heard what Chen Youzhi said, and her voice suddenly rose. She yelled, "If a murder happened here, how can I continue my business? I am a weak woman..."

Before she finished speaking, Qiu Niang started sobbing again.

"Come on, Qiu Niang, everyone knows what kind of business you are in. Maybe you were the one who killed the person." A particularly sharp and piercing voice came from the crowd.

"Wang Erniang, what nonsense are you talking about! I just borrowed half a piece of cloth from you the day before yesterday and haven't returned it yet? Stop accusing me!" When Qiu Niang heard this, she didn't even wipe away her tears, and pinched her waist and started scolding Wang Erniang.

"Make way, make way." Gu Junwen, who had listened for a long time without understanding what was said, was about to step forward when he was suddenly pushed away.

He looked back and saw a group of soldiers wearing black robes and square hats running in.

"Sir, these are the coroners from Kyoto. I have already instructed them, and they will report the results to you later." Li Xianhua stepped forward and introduced them flatteringly.

"Thank you for your hard work, Master Li."

While waiting, Gu Junwen finally got a general idea from just a few words.

When Qiu Niang was young, she was the top prostitute in Feixiulou. Three years ago, she rented this opium den and started doing her old business.

This place is quiet and elegant, attracting quite a few playboys, and business is pretty good.

A few days ago, Qiu Niang hired a craftsman to demolish the old house in the northwest corner of the backyard and expand the courtyard.

This morning, Qiu Niang went to supervise the work as usual, and saw the craftsmen digging out a pile of bones.

No one knew which craftsman let the secret slip, but by the time Qiu Niang realized what was happening, half the people on the street knew about it.

That's why so many people crowded into the smoke yard to watch the fun.

Watching the fun, no matter how big the event, is the entire entertainment life of some people.

The sky gradually turned gloomy without anyone noticing, and there was no result yet. The people who were afraid but also wanted to watch the excitement went home in groups of two or three.

"Master Gu." After a long time, an old coroner came forward and bowed to Gu Junwen.

Gu Junwen, who had been bored from listening to the family gossip for a long time, yawned: "Any results?"

The old coroner wiped the jade pendant on his hand carefully with the corner of his clothes and handed it over: "Yes. But in my opinion, we can't investigate this case."

"What do you mean?" Gu Junwen took the jade pendant, which was completely white and flawless.

Good jade.

"Sir, this jade pendant is the family emblem of the Du family in Kyoto. Only direct descendants can wear it. The current head of the family, Du Chenyou, and the former deputy prime minister, Du Qingjie... In short, if we investigate further, we will be involved in old cases." The old coroner trembled with fear, as if he was recalling the past.

When Gu Junwen asked again, he refused to say anything and just said that he was powerless.

"Sir, it's getting late. If we don't go back to Prince Nan's Mansion, it might be closed soon." Shen Anan was not interested in these things and reminded him quietly. She was almost bored to death.

"Okay." Gu Junwen lifted his robe. Since he couldn't investigate further, it was time to leave.

"Host, host!" System 101 did not look back even though he was jumping in anxiety in the void.

The coroner casually placed the Du family emblem into the corpse and sent it back to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion as evidence.

"Have a nice day, everyone." As soon as Gu Junwen and the others left the house, Chen You followed them out, without even having time to say goodbye to Qiu Niang.

Less than half an hour later, someone knocked on the door of the Du family mansion in the south of the city.

Chen Youzhi said a few simple words to the doorman and was then led by the gatekeeper into the master's study.
