Xue Ru finally made it to the third floor, but she had no idea which room Xu Yin had entered.
Every door is closed tightly, so you can't see what's going on inside.
She pushed the hawker: "You pretend to be a waiter and knock on the door."
The hawker reluctantly agreed, and while the waiter here was going downstairs, he found a hat and jacket from the tea room to dress up, then went to knock on the first door with a big kettle in hand.
"Who is it?" came an extremely irritable question from inside.
The hawker replied: "Sir, I would like to ask if you would like some more tea."
"No! Get out!"
Then I heard a low female laughter: "I'm so angry."
The voice of the man before softened: "I finally found a chance to see you, and I was interrupted by someone who didn't even look at you. I mustn't be angry..."
Dare to be in love with wild mandarin ducks in a private meeting!
The hawker cursed in his mind that it was bad luck and went to knock on the second door.
"What's the matter?" The reply this time was not so fierce.
The hawker smiled and asked: "Sir, do you need more tea?"
The room was quiet for a while, and soon someone opened the door.
The vendor put a smile on his face and was about to speak when he suddenly saw the scene in the room and his words were stuck in his throat.
There were two groups of people inside, one wearing green and the other wearing blue. There was a table in the middle, with one person sitting on each side and a group of people standing behind.
These people were all practicing martial arts, and some of them carried weapons on their waists. At this time, they all looked toward the door with murderous intent.
Seeing his dumbfounded look, the man who opened the door yelled: "Don't you want more tea?"
The vendor came back to his senses, smiled again, lowered his head and said, "Yes."
Then he stepped into the house with steady steps, filled the teapot with water in a leisurely manner, bowed his head and bowed before retreating.
When the door closed, I heard someone inside muttering: "This boy is quite brave."
The hawker curled his lips in disdain. After all, he was also an informant of Prince Duan's Mansion, and he had seen much more markets than this.
However, can this restaurant be a bit serious? The first one has an affair, the second one has gang negotiations, and the third one won't have anything weird, right?
The vendor adjusted his mood and continued to knock on the door.
"who?"
"Sir, I'm here to make some tea."
The door opened, but the other party didn't let him in. Instead, he stepped out and closed the door again.
The hawker was stunned. Is there anything invisible in this house? Have you found it?
He was just a little excited when the other party looked at him sharply from top to bottom several times and said, "Didn't you say that you don't need to wait in the Xuanzi Room? They say your restaurant has good rules, why doesn't it seem to be the case?"
The vendor felt nervous when he noticed that the other party was dressed as a scribe but had official boots on his feet.
This man seemed to be a master, and his master must be a high-ranking official in the court. He might have come here to discuss something secretly, but he knocked on the door without knowing what was going on, making the other party suspicious!
The hawker immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm new here, but I still treat you a lot, please forgive me."
The man looked at him coldly for a while, probably because he really couldn't find anything suspicious, so he waved his hand: "Okay, don't do it again next time."
"Yes, yes, I must remember it. Thank you sir." He bowed repeatedly and didn't let out a breath until the other party entered the room.
He knocked on three doors, but almost failed three times. In addition, the waiter here was coming back soon, so he quickly returned the big kettle.
"How is it?" Xue Ru asked.
The hawker shook his head: "None of them. The customers here all have some backgrounds. It would be too easy to reveal their secrets by knocking on the door."
"Then what should we do?" Xue Ru was worried. This dead girl named Xu has been on the alert recently, and there are very few opportunities to come out. It is not easy to catch her.
"Just wait here." The hawker said, "The waiter is going to serve. If we listen carefully, we will definitely find any loopholes."
Since there was no better way, Xue Ru could only agree.
The two hid for a while, until Xue Ru was sweating profusely and her wounds began to hurt. Suddenly, there was a commotion in various rooms, and there was even more chaos downstairs. It seemed that many people were running around.
"What happened?" Xue Ru alerted.
There were shouts outside: "Killing! Killing!"
Kill? Where?
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" She was still stunned. The doors to each room suddenly opened, and a group of people ran out in a mess.
The hawker saw the two wild mandarin ducks having a secret meeting. The man was the father of a certain uncle's house, and the woman was the widowed daughter-in-law of another family! And the high-ranking official who had the secret conversation was actually a minister from Menxia Province, and the other
He is a political opponent of another faction!
He immediately felt that something was wrong.
These people were having private meetings or conversations here, and it would be a fatal matter for them to be discovered. Now that they all came out, it meant that something even more fatal had happened.
Who was killed? They didn't even bother to hide their appearance?
While they were all running out, Xue Ru hurriedly entered a room, looked out the window, and was shocked.
"Yu Chong! It was Yu Chong who was killed!"
She and the vendor looked at each other with shock on their faces.
Yu Chong! He is very skilled in martial arts and is always guarding him. How can anyone actually kill him?
Xue Ru's first reaction was to be happy. The master hated her because of Yu Chong. Now that Yu Chong is dead, the master no longer has to worry about his revenge, and her hope of going back to ask for forgiveness has greatly increased.
Then, another thought came to mind.
Who killed Yu Chong? He was shot to death, and the most suitable place to do it seems to be - this restaurant!
Xue Ru immediately thought of Xu Yin. What a coincidence that she was also in this restaurant. What a coincidence that she was very good at archery...
"Let's go!" She grabbed the hawker excitedly, "Let's go find Xu San, she must be the murderer, don't let her escape!"
The hawker was confused: "What did you say? That Miss Xu San killed Yu Chong? Let's not talk about whether she has the ability. Why did she kill Yu Chong? Don't think too much."
Xue Ru thought to herself, what do you know? Maybe Xu San fell in love with her master and wanted to be the princess, so she tried her best to please her master. She came out of the palace that day, talking and laughing happily.
Time was running out, so she didn't bother to elaborate. She just said, "Let's go look for it first, in case it's really the case!"
The vendor had no choice but to obey her.
The two went from room to room, and when they pushed open the Yuzi room, Xue Ru immediately noticed something was wrong. Sure enough, when they walked around the screen, they saw two crossbows in front of the window!
The person named Xu likes to use crossbows the most, so it must be her doing it!
All the blood in Xue Ru's body was excited. She must expose this matter and let that dead girl be punished and brought to justice, so that she can never be a monster again!
At this time, the sound of neat footsteps came from outside.
A group of Imperial Guards ran up menacingly.
When the hawker saw something was wrong, he hurriedly pulled her away: "Quickly leave!"
Xue Ru was still thinking about how to expose this matter, but a little late, the imperial guards moved quickly. When they saw them coming out of the room, but they were not dressed like the guests here, they immediately shouted: "Stop them!"
