Gu Jinhui came back in a hurry. In the past, Gu Jinhui only came back to study in his yard and did not dare to walk around the mansion. After Gu Jinhui experienced so many things, he has become cautious and low-key, and does not want to provoke others.
Disgusted.
This time he went directly to the old lady's yard.
The servants in the old lady's yard were also a little surprised when they saw Gu Jinhui.
This young master has not been to the old lady's place for a long time.
As servants, they don't dare to have an attitude towards their master whether they like it or not. In short, they have to respect him.
Gu Jinhui ignored others and went to see the old lady.
The old lady has aged a lot in a short period of time. She is very haggard. She cannot sleep well or eat well. She has been worrying about how the child is doing and whether anything has happened to her all day long.
When Gu Jinhui came, the old lady managed to cheer up and asked, "What's wrong with Jinhui? Do you have anything to do with grandma?"
He rarely came, so the old lady was worried that something might happen to him and asked for help from the house.
Gu Jinhui looked eager and took out the things in his hand: "Grandma, look at this, is this my sister's thing?"
The old lady glanced at it and took it out anxiously. When she looked carefully, her pupils were dilated and she was excited. She looked at the hairpin and said, "Yes! This is Jinyan's. The child Jinyan often wears it. I remember,
It seems that I gave this to Jinyan not long after she started, and she wore it all the time. I even joked at that time that I gave her so many good things later, but she didn’t even wear it, so she kept wearing it.
Hold this."
"Jinhui, where did this come from?"
The old lady looked at Gu Jinhui eagerly.
Gu Jinhui said quickly: "Today I was shopping with my classmate and his sister. His sister wanted to go shopping. I was not in the mood, so I waited outside. Later, I was pulled in, so I thought, I saved some money and wanted to buy something.
thing."
"Then I saw this. I remembered that she had been wearing it. How did it get out? I bought it and came back in a hurry."
"Grandma, I don't know how to do it. I have to find a solution in the mansion."
"It belongs to Jin Yan! They didn't find Jin Yan. Jin Yan must be alive. Someone must have saved her. They saw that the hairpin was valuable and sold it, or Jin Yan sold it himself. They just didn't know that Jin Yan came back to Kyoto on his own.
We still encountered some kind of scene." The old lady said: "Jinhui, go quickly to the Regent's Mansion and ask the Regent to come! He said there are clues."
Gu Jinhui nodded and left without stopping.
The old lady's eyes were filled with tears.
Aunt Jing also thinks this is a good thing.
"Old Madam, we have found the person. We will find the person soon." Aunt Jing also wiped her tears and said. Old Madam, everyone in the yard was very excited about the news.
They all like Miss Jinyan.
Miss Jinyan is very nice, she will bring them things and play with them.
It's a good thing to be able to come back alive now.
Xiao Yuheng came over as quickly as possible, carrying Gu Jinhui with him. Gu Jinhui was sitting on his carriage, dizzy from the jolts, and stumbled to the old lady's place.
"Grandma, have you found the clue?" Xiao Yuheng asked eagerly.
"The old lady took out the hairpin. Jinhui bought it," the old lady said.
"Where did you buy it?" Xiao Yuheng asked.
"Zhai Xiuge, this hairpin sells for 10,000 taels. I only have 1,000 taels. I asked the Gu family to get it back first." Gu Jinhui said a little embarrassed. The situation just now was so urgent that he didn't have time to think too much.
Xiao Yuheng nodded: "Don't worry about the remaining money."
“Well done.”
"I'm going to Zhai Xiu Pavilion now."
After Xiao Yuheng finished speaking, he hurried away.
The old lady was not at ease, so she called a carriage and followed her.
After Xiao Yuheng arrived, he called the shopkeeper directly. Seeing that he was here, the shopkeeper said: "Prince Regent, this hairpin is still short of nine thousand taels."
"Let me ask you, where did the hairpin come from?" Xiao Yuheng looked at the shopkeeper and asked.
"Prince Regent, this hairpin belongs to our Zhai Xiu Pavilion. It comes from the real world. It's not some shady way. There is evidence." The shopkeeper of Zhai Xiu Pavilion was panicked to death. He didn't know why this hairpin came to him.
I offended this guy. He originally received this hairpin for 1,200 taels. It was expensive, but the stuff was really good.
"Answer whatever I ask you. Where did this hairpin come from?" Xiao Yuheng didn't have time to talk to him about this.
The guards of the Prince Regent's Palace have drawn their swords.
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he quickly said: "Our people went to various places to collect these. Some pawn shops collected them. Like this one, which is in such good condition, it was collected by pawn shops. Specifically, it is the pawn shop there. I will go find it."
Someone come and ask."
Xiao Yuheng motioned for him to call.
The shopkeeper called the person over and questioned him for a long time.
Only then did I find out that it had been collected by a pawnshop in Jin County under Yuanning Prefecture.
When Xiao Yuheng got the news, he directly arranged for people to go to Yuanning Prefecture, while he himself focused on going to Jin County.
When Xiao Yuheng was about to leave, the old lady came. Xiao Yuheng told the specific situation: "I plan to go to Jin County immediately."
"I'll go too." The old lady couldn't wait any longer and insisted on following her.
"Grandma, your body." Xiao Yuheng asked.
"Don't worry about it, I'll take the carriage and go to hell," the old lady said.
Xiao Yuheng arranged for guards to take good care of the old lady.
Xiao Yuheng went to Jin County. The old lady, Madam Hou and Zhenbei Hou couldn't sit still. They all went to Jin County. Gu Jinming and Gu Jinlang also went together.
Xiao Yuheng went to the pawnshop in Jin County without sleep, asking each one who owned the hairpin.
"When handling matters in the Prince Regent's Palace, you must not conceal anything. If you conceal something, you will be killed without mercy!" Eunuch Jing spoke with authority.
The pawnshop owner was so frightened that he dared to hide something and told the truth: "Your Majesty, I did receive this, but others also took it from us in the pawnshop. I appraised it and accepted it if it was reasonable. Although it was expensive to sell, we
Even if we are in this business, we can’t be blamed for any problems.”
"Who did you tell me to be responsible for?" Eunuch Jing was speechless and shouted directly.
"This hairpin came from a girl. In fact, it was a woman who came here the first time. At that time, the woman did not wear the hairpin. Then a few days later, the girl did." The shopkeeper recalled that he then said
So I remember, because things like this are rare, and not receiving it for the first time really made him regret it.
"What does that girl look like?" Xiao Yuheng's voice became solemn.
"She is very good-looking. She is really good-looking. She is prettier than many girls from wealthy families in our county. Her face is really delicate."
