Chapter 2320 feels familiar
The woman frowned, "Has anyone seen your master in Qingxuan County?"
"Yes."
The woman was silent for a moment, nodded and smiled, "Okay, I see, I'll bring you a message later."
"Then thank you, auntie." Shu Yu handed over a pack of pastries.
The other party took it enthusiastically, and then watched Shu Yu and the others get into the carriage. It wasn't until the back of the carriage disappeared at the entrance of the alley that she glanced at the pastry in her hand, turned around and went back to the house.
A man walked out of the room, and the woman repeated what Shu Yu said just now, "Why did they go to Qingxuan County when they are so good?"
The man laughed, "Qi Lie probably contacted them. Sure enough, I knew that as long as they came to the southwest, they would definitely get involved in the black market."
"Then what to do?"
"It's good that they have gone. We haven't found Qi Lie for so long, and the superiors are already very upset. Once the husband and wife leave, they will definitely contact Qi Lie. By then, we will know where the mouse is hiding."
The woman nodded, "Are you deliberately letting them stay in Heichang County for a few days, and giving them a chance to contact Qi Lie?"
"Yeah, now this mouse is finally about to show its head. After finding Qi Lie, the plan to eradicate their husband and wife can also begin."
The two looked at each other and began to look forward to it.
Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng didn't go to Qingxuan County immediately, it was a bit late, they rested at the inn all night, and discussed the itinerary for tomorrow, and set off for Qingxuan County early the next morning.
Qingxuan County is the next door to Heichang County, not too far away. When they arrived, it was not yet noon.
The county here is obviously a little more prosperous than Heichang County, so the few people first found an inn to stay.
Immediately after they wandered around the county town, neither of them had any purpose, as if they were wandering around.
"Do you think the county magistrate of Qingxuan County will be the same as the original Chenggu County, who is originally from the black market?"
When he walked to the gate of the county government office, Shu Yu raised his head and took a look, a question popped up in his heart.
Meng Yunzheng followed her gaze and replied, "Before leaving the capital, the emperor gave me a copy of the documents of all the officials in the Linzhang Mansion. The county magistrate of Qingxuan County was transferred over two years ago." .”
"Did you transfer here two years ago?"
"Well, the county magistrate in front has been here for more than ten years. He must have known about the existence of the black market, or else the county magistrate for the past ten years has been in vain. But he is old and had an accident two years ago. He died suddenly. The news spread back to the capital, and the Ministry of Officials sent another official over."
"So this new county magistrate may not be aware of the existence of this black market?" After all, in the past two years, because the black market in Changjin Mansion suffered heavy losses, the southwestern side also died down. If the black market does not show up, it is normal for the new county magistrate to not know about it.
"That's not necessarily the case. Two years ago, the second and third princes just joined forces. The officials were transferred to a small county magistrate. It's still in the southwest, a place that everyone avoids. In fact, it is very easy to place one's own people of."
Shu Yu nodded, so the county magistrate is probably the remnant of the second prince.
Hey, thinking about it this way, they are really besieged on all sides now, and they are in a dire situation.
While sighing inwardly, Shu Yu's gaze suddenly narrowed, and he frowned at a figure in front of him, "Ah Yun, look at that person, does he feel familiar?"
