blue shirt oath

Chapter 138
Seeing that there was nothing to ask, Gu Yi stopped going around in circles, but asked directly: "A female corpse was salvaged from the West Lake yesterday, did you know?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "This matter has been spread all over the night, and the little one has also heard about it, but I don't know who the deceased is yet."

"It's Teacher Wen Yue."

"What? Ah? The deceased is Master Wen Yue?"

The little servant took two steps back, looked at Gu Yi in shock, and pondered for a while before Gu Yi and the two of them asked themselves the question, and couldn't help being shocked:
"The two sons are not the ones who suspect that the murderer is Pingkangguan?"

He knew that there must be nothing good for the third young master Gu to appear here.I came here again today to investigate the case,

Gu Yi smiled and shook his head: "That's not the case, we just walked around casually. By the way, why don't you see Cuiniang?"

"The young one is just a handyman in the Pingkang Pavilion. It's hard to even see Cuiniang at ordinary times, and it's even less clear if she's small."

Gu Yi couldn't help taking a few glances at this young servant who was very protective of Cui Niang.

In all the questions and answers just now, he cleverly avoided everything about Cuiniang.

It's not easy for a young boy doing odd jobs to have such a delicate heart.

After staying in the Pingkang Pavilion for a while, drinking a few cups of tea, and listening to a few random songs practiced by the girls, Gu Yi slowly got up and was about to leave the Pingkang Pavilion.

Just at this time, a woman in pink came over from the back door, saw Gu Yi and the two, and said in surprise: "Oh, aren't these two Mr. Gu, why do you have so much free time to come to Pingkang Hall today?"

She covered her face with a smile and looked at Gu Xingzhi, then at Gu Yi, her gaze stayed on Gu Yi, and she couldn't stop nodding in praise:
"No wonder people say Zhilan Yushu, the son of the Gu family. I thought that Mr. Gu was a dragon and a phoenix among men. Today, when I saw Mr. Gu again, I realized that there are people beyond others. The third Mr. is really a figure in the kingdom, a man of talent!"

She knew her so well, Gu Yi didn't recognize her, because he took a step back and bowed: "Miss, do you know your brother?"

"Not only did we know each other, but he and I also—" The girl in pink held a sachet half-hidden, and looked at the two of them with a smile, without elaborating, "Brother Ling came to the Pingkang Hall to look for you that day, and he was received by the servant's house. Hmph, brother Ling is a ruthless gentleman, he came here once that day, and sweetly tricked the slave family into saying that, so he left the slave family alone."

Gu Yi and Gu Xingzhi looked at each other, when did the eldest brother get involved with the girl from the Pingkang Pavilion?
Still sweet talk?

Is a person like elder brother a person who can talk sweetly?
The girl in pink said again: "You two gentlemen came so early today, why are you here? Couldn't it be that brother Ling disappeared today, so you go into the brothel to look for him?"

Gu Yi is funny, although this woman is delicate and smart, innocent, her words are a little bit childish, but she can hurt others, not at all inferior to others.

"Miss misunderstood, my brother is well, the two of us are here today to investigate the death of Musician Wen."

"Master Wen Yue." The woman in pink pouted, "Isn't the people from the state capital investigating this case, Mr. Gu also wants to get involved?"

Gu Yi looked at her calmly, it seemed that she knew a lot of news.

"It's not that I want to intervene in this matter, but the girl knows that my third brother has been in love with Master Wen Le for a long time. Now that Master Wen Le has passed away, the third brother is grieving. The only thing I can do is to find out the real culprit as soon as possible."

The woman in pink looked at him for a while: "It is said that Mr. Gu San is extremely intelligent and an expert at investigating cases. I believe that Mr. Gu will be able to find out the real culprit, so as to comfort Master Wen Yue's spirit in heaven."

"I will try my best."

"Then I won't bother the two of you to investigate the case." The girl in pink said she was going to leave, but was stopped by Gu Yi, "I haven't asked the girl's name yet."

"A person in the world of mortals, the name is just a code name, why should you ask me?"

"Didn't the girl say that my brother once met the girl? If the girl doesn't say her name, I'm afraid I'll think that the girl is lying just now."

Gu Yi, who has always been strict, also learned this shameless trick.

The girl in pink frowned and stared at him: "My name is Xiang'er, go back and tell your brother that I did him a favor last time, and he hasn't thanked me yet."

Just now I was still a "slave family", now it becomes me.

Gu Yi was amused, and nodded again and again: "I wonder what Miss Xiang'er did to help my brother last time?"

"What's the matter? Of course he knows." Xiang'er smiled sweetly again, "If I hadn't invited Sister Liu here, he wouldn't have seen Sister Liu."

"Write it down, and I will tell my brother when I go back." Gu Yi promised, "There are many things in the house these days, and my brother is busy, so he forgot the kindness of the girl for a while, so please don't blame the girl."

Xiang'er said: "Men are big pigs, your brother is, and so is Zhou Qiang."

This...how did it involve Zhou Qiang?

Gu Yi hurriedly asked: "My brother is not a heartless person. As for the Zhou Qiang that Miss Xiang'er mentioned, is it Zhou Qiang who is the bartender of Shuocuilou?"

"Who else could it be if it wasn't him. Sister Liu is devoted to protecting him. He is very good and never forgets others."

Gu Yi was surprised, one was the head of the Pingkang Pavilion, and the other was the bartender of the Shocuilou, these two people who were incompatible with each other, actually had an intersection?

The last time Cui Niang was assassinated in the Shong Cui Building, her maid Xiaohong sent a reminder to trigger the mechanism. Gu Yi praised the brave behavior of these two women at the time, but he always believed that Cui Niang's master and servant did this. It was because he was not used to Wang Qinruo's evil deeds, and he wanted to help Father Chang and his daughter get revenge.

Later, they provided Chang Sanjie with drunkenness, so that Chang Sanjie could drug Wang Qinruo, which made Gu Yi think that they had a deep friendship with Chang Sanjie, and they would not hesitate to take risks for her.

From today's point of view, Cui Niang's generous help back then may not have helped Father Chang and his daughter, but Zhou Qiang.

Gu Yi thought carefully about Xiang'er's words just now.

Hearing Xiang'er's words, this Cui Niang is actually interested in Zhou Qiang?
That's right, if it wasn't for this, Cuiniang would not have tried her own life to act as an accomplice in the assassination of Wang Qinruo in the Suocuilou.

"It seems that the girl and Cuiniang are very familiar?"

"Of course, in the Pingkang Pavilion, the slave family and Sister Liu are the most familiar." Xiang'er looked sideways at Gu Yi and smiled, "Why, Gu Langjun never leaves Sister Liu for three words, does it mean that he also wants to be with Sister Liu? Is it possible for my sister to spend a good night together? This morning, the gentleman is too impatient, sister Liu just waited on Mr. Wang yesterday, and it is inconvenient now, the gentleman might as well come later."

She spoke blatantly, and Gu Yi was blushed by her words. He was either advancing or retreating for a while, but Gu Xingzhi had seen the world, pulled his third brother behind him, and said to Xiang'er: "Miss Xiang'er said extremely Yes, then my third brother and I will come back later."

While talking, without waiting for Gu Yi to speak, he dragged Gu Yi out of the Pingkang Pavilion.

Breathing the fresh air outside, Gu Xingzhi looked at his third younger brother who was blushing, and felt amused in his heart. The third younger brother is usually stable and mature, no matter what he encounters, his face is as immobile as a mountain.

It's rare to see such shyness today.
