Chapter 193 Found Evidence
Fortunately, people outside the space could not hear her voice, but the system was almost scared to death by her shouting.
"What is this?" Su Qianqian leaned against the door, her eyes wide open, covering her mouth as she looked at the huge creature in front of her.
I saw a giant beast with a face like a fox, its long fur glowing golden, its eyes as deep green as pool water, and a pair of golden horns on its back shining brightly.
"What else could it be? Your new favorite, Lord Dianfeng, must have drunk some wine and gone crazy, revealing his true form! Humph!" The system replied to Su Qianqian with contempt.
Sure enough, the giant beast blinked, burped, and swayed its body. Suddenly, it bent its front hooves and knelt down, lying beside Su Qianqian's legs, rubbing Su Qianqian's ankles with its furry head.
"Is this the peak?" Su Qianqian couldn't believe it. How could such a small, cute and clingy little puppy, even though it was a little ugly, suddenly grow into a huge monster? Even if it was a handsome and cool behemoth, she didn't want it!
"How did you become like this? No, I want a refund!" Su Qianqian kicked the beast mercilessly. The beast whimpered in grievance. This time Su Qianqian confirmed that it was indeed at its peak.
"Have you forgotten our agreement... Chapter 42? If it grows ugly, I will return it... Oh no, you are so scheming, the return period has passed!" Su Qianqian thought of this matter angrily.
Dianfeng might have felt a little guilty, and seemed to sober up. He looked at Su Qianqian pitifully, and gradually turned back into the appearance of a puppy, and the layer of golden light also disappeared.
Anything that looks like this and can change is either a mythical beast or a demonic beast. Su Qianqian decided to go to the mall and buy a book that introduced those beasts to see if they have any value in use. If so, she would squeeze them dry.
But where did it get the wine from?
Smelling the faint fragrance, Su Qianqian walked into the balcony.
There was a small porcelain jar by the swimming pool with the lid opened. She had used it to store maltose and sometimes to make some fruit iced drinks. Now the aroma of wine wafted from it.
Su Qianqian walked over and saw grape residue in the jar, and a layer of remaining lavender liquid, which exuded a fragrant aroma.
Good, I can be self-reliant and make wine now.
Dianfeng also followed and tried to drink the rest of the homemade wine, but Su Qianqian grabbed his horn and pulled him aside. She didn't want to see Dianfeng turn back into that huge monster again. She felt very insecure.
"Let me add one more rule: You are not allowed to drink alcohol without my permission, even homemade ones are not allowed!" Su Qianqian warned seriously.
Dianfeng made the routine "woohoo" protest and then surrendered dejectedly.
After conquering the peak, Su Qianqian checked the cotton growing in the garden. This was already the third time she had planted it, and she had to stock up more before the snowstorm came.
The cotton production in this place is not high. It is mainly used by rich families to make padded jackets and thin quilts, which ordinary people cannot afford.
The cotton can be added with a layer of straw, and some tough paper can be used to make some warm quilts, which can be distributed to poor people who have nothing but four walls and have to endure the winter. Some firewood and medicine to resist the cold can also be distributed, and it should not be a problem for them to get through those few days.
The rest is up to fate.
Su Qianqian checked all the equipment for extracting various raw materials in the space to ensure their normal operation.
What she finds most amazing is that not only is the swimming pool automatically filtered, but clothes hung on the balcony will also be dried. Although the sun and the moon cannot be seen, the day and night are changing, and the lights in the room need to be turned on at night. After a period of time, the space display position in the system will show the amount of water and electricity consumed, and she also has to pay the water and electricity bills!
Five days passed in a blink of an eye, and a small thing happened in the Qin family during these five days: Qin Mian made rapid progress, and was able to endure hardships and persevere. He would practice martial arts alone in the yard every day. Qin Li finally got Xin's permission and joined the ranks of martial arts practitioners.
Two major events occurred in the palace. After Concubine Xiao ignored the emperor's house arrest order and made a scene in front of the emperor, the emperor officially issued an edict that Princess Zhaoning marry in Daliang, and at the same time Princess Zhaoyang was to be married to the youngest son of Marquis Dingyang, who was also Du's nephew.
When everyone came to congratulate her, Mi was in high spirits. Although she looked humble, her eyes were full of arrogance.
On the evening of the fifth day, when Qin Hanzhang came back, he was actually happy. After everyone had dinner, Xin took the children away first, and Qin Hanzhang spoke: "He has been found."
Everyone in the room looked at Qin Hanzhang expectantly, waiting for him to continue.
"As expected, she took the thing that Madam Shaohua was looking for out of resentment, and Zhou Tang did not hide it. She came back this time because her son was seriously ill and wanted to seek medical treatment in Xijing. She also wanted to exchange the thing for silver, so she went to Madam Shaohua's Xie Fang Garden at night."
Qin Hanzhang said this and looked at Su Qianqian: "She said that day when she just approached the corner gate of Xie Fangyuan, she saw a man in black holding a knife and slashing at her. Unexpectedly, another masked man in black appeared and slapped the man on the head, and he fell to the ground and couldn't get up."
"So the captain went to kill He, but was killed from behind?" Su Qianqian opened her eyes wide, her watery pupils like an innocent little deer.
"That's right. After that, He fled in a hurry. The man in black didn't chase her. She hid in the inn and didn't dare to go out. She heard the innkeepers talking and learned that Madam Shaohua was in the Ministry of Justice. She didn't know where to go, and was found by our people."
Qin Hanzhang recounted everything that had happened.
"So the man in black was protecting her, which means Zhang Yong at least knew about her coming to Xijing. He was the one who asked the captain to wait for He and kill her. He killed her instead of arresting her, which means he didn't know that He had taken the things, but just suspected that she knew something."
Su Qianqian frowned as she analyzed.
"There is also the masked man in black. He also knew that she came to Xijing and was protecting her secretly, but he didn't contact her. Who is he?" Su Qianqian still couldn't figure it out.
"By the way, has Mr. He given that thing to you?" Su Qianqian thought of the thing that many people cared about.
"I promised to pay for her son's treatment, so she gave the thing to me." Qin Hanzhang's expression became serious, and he took out an old and faded brown earthen cloth bag from his arms. The bag looked square, and the mouth of the bag was tightened with a hemp rope.
Qin Hanzhang untied the hemp rope and took out a wooden box. He opened the box, took out two things and handed them to Madam Qin.
One is a bronze waist badge, and the other is an expedited customs clearance document.
Madam Qin looked at the two familiar objects, her hands trembling slightly.
"This is Zhou Tang's badge, but it's not his." Qin Hanzhang said in a deep voice.
"What do you mean?" The second master couldn't help but ask. That year, he and the third master were transferred to Qizhou to suppress bandits, so they did not rush to the northern border. Unexpectedly, something happened to his eldest brother and two nephews.
"The badge does not belong to Zhou Tang. He is not qualified to be such an important messenger given his position." Madam Qin replied in a low voice.
