Calm down! Calm down! Liu San warned himself that things had already happened, and there was no point in panicking. Besides, they were not the people of the Ming Dynasty. So what if they killed a little Jinyiwei brat? Even if she was a girl, the worst she could do was kidnap her and take her back.
Used as a sex slave.
Thinking of this, I felt calm. I picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Huang Tianyu first, signaling him to calm down.
Huang Tianyu was startled just now, and now he also had doubts: It is not difficult for the dignified Jinyi Guards to blackmail big local government officials, why do they need to do such sneaky things? Thinking of this, he whispered:
"Liu San, this is strange."
"Yeah." Liu San nodded, "It's indeed strange."
This child is only fifteen years old. A girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, working as a servant in Jinyiwei? This is not a costume drama or martial arts novel. Are there any female detectives, female captains and the like?
"What's going on? I won't say anything if I'm afraid, hum! Untie me quickly and let me go!"
Liu San pondered for a moment, stood up, and bowed in front of her:
"Please forgive me, Miss Qianqian! Since Miss Qianqian is working for the imperial court, we have misunderstood. I will send Miss Qianqian's gift to the county government early tomorrow morning. If she wants to be killed or punished then, let the girl handle it."
"No need, I have a good life, just let me go now." When she heard that she was going to be sent to the county government, the girl showed a panicked look. Now Liu San was more confident. He said deliberately:
"No, no, I have to give gifts to the girl. I have to prepare wine to calm Miss Qianqian's shock. Then I have to ask Miss Qianqian to say a few nice words in front of hundreds of adults..."
"I told you I don't want it, I don't want it, let me go quickly! Mr. Baihu is very busy!" The girl started to get impatient.
Now it was even more solid. No matter what the relationship between this girl and Jin Yiwei was, she was as afraid of Jin Yiwei as they were of Jin Yiwei.
Liu San was a little hesitant. He had originally let her go or sent her to the county government. But now he had to find out her true origin. After all, this waistband did not seem to be a fake.
Could it be stolen? Liu San shook his head, why did he steal this thing? Even if he had to pretend to be a big head, it would be too dangerous.
Thinking of this, Liu San said slowly: "Miss Qianqian, I don't need to send her to the county government. I just ask her to answer a few questions of mine."
"Hey, how brave!" Qianqian's complexion changed, "Who are you? You dare to come and interrogate me?"
Liu Sangang wanted to speak, but Huang Tianyu gestured and knelt aside, staring blankly at Shu Cui in their live drama - it was not convenient to speak with her around.
Immediately he called Gao Di and ordered him to take Shu Cui out. He would not let him go for the time being, but would keep him in his room.
Huang Tianyu closed the door, and Liu San said:
"It's not an interrogation, I just want to know your origins."
"Hmph, why do you want to know who I am?"
"If you don't tell us, I'm afraid you'll have to tell us when we get to the county government." Liu San said, "Of course, you can take out this badge, it depends on whether you dare or not."
Qianqian's face turned red from holding back: "Why don't you dare! This is a real advantage! I got it from Uncle Li -" She realized that she had let slip the words, and she swallowed the next words alive.
Before they finished speaking, both Liu San and Huang Tianyu understood. This little girl was probably a relative or friend working in Jinyiwei. She probably got her belt card from them, but it was actually shady. No wonder she didn't dare to go.
If the government shows the sign, the local Jinyiwei personnel will naturally know that a colleague has arrived - something is about to break out.
"Qianqian, please tell me carefully, how do you own this brand? It seems that you are also a child of a good family, why do you want to steal?" Liu San pretended to be gentle and kind, "What's the problem?
Whatever uncle can do, I will definitely help you."
This Qianqian's eyes were rolling around and he was hemming and hawing. After being threatened and seduced by Liu San, she finally became honest and confessed one by one:
It turns out that this girl's name is Li Yongxun, the daughter of Xiaoqi, a member of the Jinyiwei family in Jiangning, Yingtian Prefecture, Nanjing. As for why she appeared in Guangzhou, far away from Nanjing: it turns out to be an old story - because her father wanted to force her to get married, she
He ran away from home in anger.
"...I didn't want to steal anything at first, but I ran out of money, and even my bracelet was stolen." At this point, the girl actually started to cry, and now Huang Tianyu became confused.
I softened my heart.
"Old Liu, I don't think it's a big deal. The kid was confused for a while..."
"Uncle, just let me go - wuwuwuwu..."
It turned out that she was still a prostitute. Liu San thought that this was going to be tricky. Regardless of whether what she said was true or false, she must have some kind of relationship with the Jin Yiwei - so sending her to the official position was not an option, as the Jin Yiwei would be recruited;
I'm afraid this girl has some tricks up her sleeve - she doesn't seem to be very sophisticated in her actions, but her eyes are very cunning, and she looks like a little scoundrel full of tricks. I just let her go, but what if I let her off again?
"I think we should just take her away." Huang Tianyu suggested.
"No, this girl's father must be looking for her everywhere. It's easy for us to attract attention with a girl, and we will get burned." Liu San objected, "Let her go."
"Qianqian, since this is your first offender, you can leave as soon as dawn." Liu Sandao said, "Don't do such sneaky things in the future, it will embarrass your family."
"Thank you, uncle." Li Yongxun now looked like an innocent girl who had made a mistake, "But uncle, Qianqian has no place to go now..."
Liu San thought that this was bad, this girl was relying on them: "You'd better go home."
"If I don't go back, my father will marry Qianqian to a pretty boy! Besides, this place is thousands of miles away from Nanjing. Uncle, why don't you worry about Qianqian walking a long distance with a child?"
Sweat! Liu San and Huang Tianyu looked at each other. We are not that familiar with you! It doesn’t matter to us whether you marry a pretty girl or a black-faced guy - we are not here to liberate women.
"Then let the girl do what she wants." Huang Tianyu realized that this girl was a disaster.
"Where are you going, uncle?" Li Yongxun asked slyly.
"I'm going to the city to do some business tomorrow."
"Liar! Uncle is obviously going to Foshan!"
Huang Tianyu complained secretly, it seemed that she had already understood our situation clearly - of course it is not difficult, just go to the cabinet and ask around and you will find out.
"Since uncle is going to Foshan, how about taking Qianqian with him?"
The two men were taken aback. Was she out of her mind or a nymphomaniac? She was looking for two strange men to go on a long trip together.
Huang Tianyu coughed: "Look, we are a few grown men, and there are no women around us. It is inconvenient to walk with a girl like you."
"You guys look like merchants at first glance!" Li Yongxun said, "What's wrong with taking a little maid with you?"
"It's not inappropriate, it's just inconvenient!" Huang Tianyu became annoyed, "Aren't you afraid that we will go to the wilderness, tie you up and sell you to a brothel?"
"Humph, you think I haven't been there? You scared the shit out of me. You don't dare-" Li Yongxun looked quite proud of his amulet, "Unless you think the Jin Yiwei are all losers."
Jin Yiwei is really a loser - Huang Tianyu complained in his heart, no matter how awesome the spy organization was, it was not the same that Li Zicheng and Locust Taiji destroyed it. However, it is not appropriate to say this openly.
"...Besides, I think all uncles are good people."
I received a good guy card for no reason, which made me a little depressed. The most depressed person was Huang Tianyu. He was truly a "good guy".
We talked for a long time and went round and round, but still couldn't convince this girl. In the end, Liu San had no choice but to say: "What are you doing in Foshan? We are going to do some shopping, not to have fun!"
"I have a sister who is married in Foshan. I will go to her house. If you are doing a good deed, why don't you give me a ride?"
Liu Sanyuan thought that he really couldn't convince her, so he simply tied her up with a rope, opened a room here and let the shop serve her with delicious food and drinks for a few days before letting her go. Now that I think about it, this would bring a lot to Qiwei.
Trouble - after all, Qiwei is the property of Guangzhou Station. It is a big tree that attracts trouble, and it will be even worse if it attracts Jin Yiwei.
Since she insists on going with her, she might as well take her with her to Foshan, whether she really has a sister in Foshan or fake. No matter how she is dealt with, the Guangzhou Station will not be involved.
The distance from Guangzhou to Foshan is very short. The store owner said that it only takes two days to take the inland river boat. There are dense crowds along the way, so nothing major will happen.
Thinking of this, he nodded: "Okay, we will take you to Foshan. But you must first write a document saying that you voluntarily asked us to escort you to Foshan. After arrival, the two parties will have nothing to do with each other."
"Okay." Li Yongxun wrote a piece of paper. Liu San took it, blew it dry, and held it in his arms.
"It's already the third watch now. It's getting late-" Liu San thought that he would have to open a room for her.
Huang Tianyu said: "Let Miss Li sleep in my room, and I will sleep at your place."
"That's fine." Liu San nodded in agreement.
"I also have a package, which is under Shu Cui." Li Yongxun requested, "please uncle let Shu Cui go and ask her to get it for me."
"Okay." He immediately ordered Gao Di to put Shu Cui away and go get Li Yongxun's package. He also asked Chen Tong to go and see shopkeeper Yang's house so as not to disturb him.
Early the next morning, at dawn, Liu San and Huang Tianyu got up to wash up and went to Li Yongxun's house first. The girl had been neatly dressed and turned into a blue cloth dress. She was as simple and ordinary as an ordinary little girl.
There was a package on his back, and a long cloth bag bundled with the umbrella.
Huang Tianyu asked: "What's in this?"
"Xiu Chun Dao." Li Yongxun said with some pride, "This is for my own exclusive use."
"It must have been stolen from your Uncle Li, too."
"No, it was my father who found someone to help me beat him!"
