Long Wind Crossing - Chapter 138

    Gu Jiusi walked out of the government office with a calm heart. He had an intuition that there was something wrong with this matter. These days, he had been secretly investigating the officials in Xingyang, especially Wang Siyuan and Fu Baoyuan. Wang Siyuan has always used Wang Houchun as a shield in his work. He doesn’t touch the core characters, and he can’t touch Wang Siyuan at all. Fu Baoyuan is only a rank six sesame official.

      work, but also a state of no fault.

    Gu Jiusi went home in deep thought, Luo Zishang went to the river to oversee work, and Liu Yuru just came back from the dock.

    Since the first shipment was delivered to Dongdu, the caravan started to operate normally. They have low price, fast speed and high safety. In order to save costs, many small businesses hand over the goods to Liutong Commercial Bank, who are responsible for the transportation. Now it has only opened for half a month, and its reputation has spread all over the country. It can be said that the business is booming.

    Because of the convenience of transportation and the return of funds, both Yingying and Ye Yun proposed expansion to Liu Yuru. Liu Yuru did not dare to open a store rashly at this time, but they still asked them to plan well. Then start planning to raise money.

    Ye Yun and Yingying have now cultivated a group of people in their respective stores, and now the business has gradually become that Liu Yuru is responsible for raising funds and determining the flow of funds, while Ye Yun and Yingying are responsible for business model. Yingying gradually accumulated experience in Huarong, and began to plan to gradually expand from the daily women’s things to the sale of soaphorns, combs, clothing and even some fine furniture. Although Ye Yun became the head of Shenxianxiang not long ago, she also began to think about buying real estate grains to reduce costs and expand sales because the supply of Shenxianxiang was in short supply.

    Liu Yuru did not reject their proposal, while guiding the caravan warehouse on the right track, while thinking about where to go to find money.

    Gu Jiusi was sitting in the yard, and there was a swing in the yard. On weekdays, most girls’ homes were playing there. Today, Gu Jiusi felt bored, so he sat on the swing alone, with his feet on each other. He rubbed against the ground, swayed gently on the swing, and kept thinking about everything that happened in the Yellow River.

    Liu Yuru came back from the outside and walked up the corridor, when Yin Hong suddenly pulled her, pointed to the yard below, and whispered, “Look Madam.”

    Liu Yuru looked in the direction of Yin Hongzhi, and saw Gu Jiusi who was looking up at the sky in a daze.

      Liu Yuru couldn’t help but pursed her lips and smiled. She felt that the sunlight falling on him seemed to fall on her heart. She was basking in the sun, as if to tell her that, you see, nothing has changed.

    Even after all this time, this person is still young at heart.

    Liu Yuru walked over, sat on the edge of the corridor, raised her elbows on the guardrail, and called out, “Master Gu.”

    Gu Jiusi heard Liu Yuru’s voice, and felt a little strange, how could Liu Yuru call him Master Gu? He raised his head in a daze, and saw the handkerchief falling from a height in front of him. Gu Jiusi raised his hand subconsciously and held the handkerchief. Then he raised his eyes again and saw the smiling girl in the high place.

    She has vivid eyebrows and eyes, shining like jewels in the afternoon sun.

    Gu Jiusi couldn’t help laughing when she heard this, and said loudly, “Think about something.”

    “What?”

    Liu Yuru held her chin and chatted with him, and when she asked this, she saw Gu Jiusi took her silk handkerchief and put it on the side of her face, her eyebrows were slightly raised, and her peach blossom eyes suddenly became countless. The romantic spring, he looked at her, opened his lips and teeth, and said two words slowly.

     Those two words were silent, but Liu Yuru read them all at once.

    He said—missing you.

    In fact, it was nothing but two words, but when Gu Jiusi said this, she felt her heartbeat suddenly increased, and a kind of unprovoked heat rushed to her face, she said in a low voice: “rash!”

    After she finished speaking, she stood up and hurried into the room.

    Gu Jiusi was stunned for a while, then quickly got up and chased after him, saying loudly, “Yuru, don’t be angry, don’t leave.”

    How dare Liu Yuru ignore him at this moment, she hurried back to the room all the way, Gu Jiusi has long legs and fast feet, and catches up after Liu Yuru stepped into the door, Liu Yuru was about to close the door, she When Gu Jiusi approached half of his body, he pressed his hand and said, “Don’t, don’t, let me in, don’t be angry.”

    Liu Yuru ignored him, just thinking about closing the door, Gu Jiusi pressed her hand against the door, stared at her for a moment, but smiled.

    “What are you laughing at?”

    Liu Yuru looked up at him, Gu Jiusi pursed her lips, lowered her head, leaned into her ear, and whispered, “So the little lady is not angry, but embarrassed?”

    “You go out!”

    Liu Yuru suddenly became excited and stretched out her hand to push him, but Gu Jiusi grabbed his hand and squeezed into the door, took the door with her feet, and hugged him in her arms.

    He lowered his head and smiled and looked at Liu Yuru, Liu Yuru suddenly felt that she was much weaker, and she would seem to be flirting with him again, she froze for a moment, and it seemed that good.

    Gu Jiusi felt happy when she saw her at a loss. He lowered his head and kissed Liu Yuru’s face loudly, and said happily, “I’m happy when you see that I like it.”

    Liu Yuru said nothing, turned her face sideways, and seemed to be a little unconvinced. Gu Jiusi held her hand to his lips, kissed her and said, “I’m even more happy to be able to raise you to be so arrogant.”

    These words named Liu Yuru’s squeamishness in these actions, Liu Yuru froze for a while, and couldn’t help feeling a little embarrassed. I don’t know what happened to me, but in front of Gu Jiusi, I lost my way. Gu Jiusi knew that she began to reflect again, and the hand around her waist used strength, and quickly said: “My good lady, don’t think about it, this man and woman get along with each other and it’s not the court of the mall, and they don’t do anything with courtesy. Count, if you are an outsider like this, it looks pretentious, but if you are a husband and wife, it looks very cute.”

    “Don’t… don’t say it.” Liu Yuru stuttered a little, as if embarrassed, Gu Jiusi smiled lowly, Liu Yuru leaned against his chest, and could feel the movement of his chest, after a while , he sighed softly, and said helplessly with a bit of doting: “You.”

    The two were talking when suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside, Gu Jiusi and Liu Yuru glanced at each other, and then heard Shen Ming’s anxious voice saying: “Ninth brother? Are you there?”

    Gu Jiusi felt a little headache when he heard it was Shen Ming, he raised his hand to cover his forehead and sighed. Liu Yuru pushed him, pursed her lips and said, “I’m calling you.”

    “Not the time.”

    Gu Jiusi whispered, thought about it, and kissed again, only when Liu Yuru got an angry look, he was satisfied, let go of the person, tidied up his clothes, opened the door and went out, with his hands folded between his sleeves, Looking at Shen Ming, he said angrily, “What are you doing? Won’t let people inform you?”

    “I told you to report too?”

    Shen Ming was a little stunned: “Isn’t it all about me helping people inform you?”

    It was like this before, Gu Jiusi choked up at the question, and he was even more unhappy, and snorted coldly, “Hurry up and say it.”

    “Yin and Yang.”

    Shen Ming attacked directly, Gu Jiusi was about to fight back when she heard Shen Ming say: “Qin Nan can’t be found.”

    Gu Jiusi was stunned for a while, and after a while, he immediately said, “What do you mean I can’t find it?!”

    “He does things very regularly,” Shen Ming said immediately, “I get along well with me these days, usually he will let me know if anything happens. I went to the office of the county government office, and then went home. I still have something to investigate, so I went to investigate it first, and when I went to his house to find him, the Qin manor was gone.”

    “But out?”

    Gu Jiusi frowned and asked. Shen Ming shook his head: “It’s not going out, I thought it was going out at first. But once Qin Nan goes out, he knows that I will usually find him in the afternoon, at least say hello to me, or leave a letter to me. Two Come on, I climbed over the wall and entered the house, and found that the house was in a mess, and there was even rice that had not been cooked in the pot, so it could be seen that the family left in a hurry. Maybe even before they were ready, they left. “

    “Why leave?”

    Gu Jiusi asked the words in the middle: “Mi Shang disappeared in the pot, shouldn’t he be kidnapped?”

    “The precious things in the house are gone. And some everyday luggage.”

    Shen Ming analyzed and said: “His official seal, as well as things he likes on weekdays, even his wife’s tablet, he takes away all the important and needed things, because these things are related to his life. Habits are completely consistent, unless it is himself, or someone who knows him very well, even if he wants to fake the appearance of him leaving, he can’t get things so accurately. And if you have decided to fake them leaving, you don’t have to stay. Such suspicious traces in the pot.”

    “You’re not there, and who’s watching them?”

    “No.” Shen Ming said in a deep voice, “When I arrive, not far from his house, I found traces of fighting, and the person guarding him is nowhere to be found.”

    Gu Jiusi did not speak, Shen Ming continued: “So, the biggest possibility now is that he encountered something and suddenly decided to leave with his family. Our people are his people’s hands, or It’s another group of hands that we found earlier.”

    Gu Jiusi was silent, he thought quietly, Shen Ming was a little anxious: “Ninth brother, what should I do?”

    “He has an old mother and so many servants, so he should be scattered.”

    Gu Jiusi said slowly: “His mother is old and can’t leave for a while, she is probably still in the city. He should be out of Xingyang City, you go to the west to Dongdu and the south to Yizhou. “

    “Yes.”

    Shen Ming took the order and drove out immediately. Gu Jiusi stood at the door, Liu Yuru came out of the house, and asked with some doubts, “Master Qin, what’s going on?”

    Gu Jiusi was silent for a moment, then said: “You rest first, I will find some people.”

    After Gu Jiusi finished speaking, he rushed to the river bank.

    Luo Zishang was overseeing the work on the river bank. Seeing Gu Jiusi coming, Luo Zishang smiled: “Master Gu.”

    “Master Qin is gone.”

    Gu Jiusi got straight to the point, he observed Luo Zishang’s expression, Luo Zishang was stunned, and then said: “What is missing?”

    Hearing this sentence, Gu Jiusi observed Luo Zishang’s expression and knew that Luo Zishang should really not know about it.

    He turned around and left, and then rushed to the government office. He found Li Yuchang and said with Li Yuchang, “Master Li, Master Qin is gone, I want to see Master Fu next time.”

    Hearing this, Li Yuchang frowned: “Your wife is related to this case, it is not convenient for you to see him.”

    “Master Li,” Gu Jiusi looked up at Li Yuchang, “Master Qin’s accident may have something to do with Master Fu, you let me see him, at least find out how Master Qin disappeared. Master Li, you The handling of the case is impartial and straightforward, the right and wrong are clear, and the case will never be judged in a confused manner.”

    Li Yuchang was silent for a while, and after a long time, he finally said, “I’ll ask.”

    Gu Jiusi was a little annoyed at this dead brain for a while, but he also knew that this was the preciousness of Li Yuchang. He took a deep breath, raised his hand and said, “Please.”

    Li Yuchang nodded and led people to Fu Baoyuan.

    Gu Jiusi followed Li Yuchang to the cell. He waited at the door for a while. Shortly after Li Yuchang entered, he walked out and said calmly, “He said he didn’t know.”

    “Don’t know?”

    Gu Jiusi was stunned for a while, Li Yuchang nodded: “I won’t say it.”

    Hearing this, Gu Jiusi understood, Li Yuchang probably didn’t ask, he immediately went inside and said, “I’ll take a look.”

    Li Yuchang raised his hand to stop him, Gu Jiusi was immediately annoyed when he was stopped like this, and said angrily: “Did I say you have lead in your brain?! When will you be able to pry it open? He has to try every way he can. Why does Qin Nan run? Isn’t he running because he is holding something important in his hand? You stop me now, in case Qin Nan is killed on the road, this case How to do?!”

    Li Yuchang was scolded like this, but he didn’t speak. When Gu Jiusi rushed in again, he didn’t stop him.

    Gu Jiusi rushed all the way to the prison, and saw Fu Baoyuan lying on the bed. He was still in his usual cheerful look, with his head in one hand and chopsticks in the other, and he tapped the bowl leisurely and sang some songs. Minor, compared with the usual flattering attitude, it is a bit more dashing.

    Gu Jiusi looked at Fu Baoyuan and said to Fu Baoyuan, “Qin Nan ran away, you know.”

    Fu Baoyuan ignored him and continued humming. Gu Jiusi didn’t speak, he pursed his lips, and continued: “Last time, when my people went to arrest people, did you send someone to give you the duty schedule?”

    “However the beauty of the good day is, it will be a pleasure to be in someone’s house.”

    “Master Fu!” Gu Jiusi raised his voice, “If you don’t tell the whereabouts of Master Qin now, it might be too late!”

    Hearing this, Fu Baoyuan chuckled lightly, he turned over, turned his back to Gu Jiusi, and did not speak.

    Gu Jiusi saw his appearance, he thought for a while, and then said: “I don’t know whether you are good or evil, and I don’t know what Master Qin intends to do. I don’t understand why you stop me Repair the Yellow River, but I just want to do it well.”

    Fu Baoyuan’s singing stopped, Gu Jiusi clenched his fists: “I want to repair the Yellow River, I also want to repair Yongzhou. In the middle, I will not let a bad person, but I will not wrong one Good man. Master Fu, if you are wronged, you can say that you don’t have to go around the corner and let Master Qin take this risk, you can trust me. “

    “You are a young man,” Fu Baoyuan opened his eyes, looked at the wall in front of him, and said calmly, “What are you messing with in Yongzhou? Just walk around, make a political achievement, make some money, and return That’s it for Dongdu. You are young, and you are a third-rank household official. As long as you don’t go the wrong way in the future, he will go to the position you want to go sooner or later, so why be so anxious?”

    “Because I’m an official.”

    Gu Jiusi looked at him and said seriously: “I am in this position, what I eat is the food provided by the people, and what I take is the salary given by the people. How can I eat a vegetarian meal, just for the future? Your Majesty Since I was asked to repair the Yellow River, I will repair the Yellow River. I can’t let Yangzhou so much money go in for nothing, and I don’t want the imperial court to receive news of the Yellow River flood every year. This should be fertile land. The people here should live and work in peace and contentment, if I can do it, why don’t I do it?”

    “Master Gu,” Fu Baoyuan sighed, “the people of Yongzhou, the officials of Yongzhou don’t care, you…”

    “I do.”

    Gu Jiusi resolutely opened his mouth, every word was sonorous: “Daxia has me Gu Jiusi, I live a day, I have to take care of the people for a day.”

    Fu Baoyuan did not speak, he looked at the dark walls of the cell, not knowing what he was thinking. Seeing that he was silent, Gu Jiusi continued: “Master Fu, I know you don’t believe me. But even if you don’t believe me, you still think about your family. I know you have arranged everything, you are not afraid, but you are not afraid. , aren’t they afraid?”

    “You are now expecting Lord Qin to do something for you, but if you are not wronged, Lord Qin cannot save you. If you are indeed wronged, you let him go alone to avenge you. “Aren’t you afraid that something will happen to him?”

    “Before,” Gu Jiusi took a deep breath, “someone was staring at him, I let Shen Ming guard, now that he’s gone, we can’t protect him, you make him a civil servant, how about protect yourself?”

    Fu Baoyuan listened to Gu Jiusi’s words, and after a long time, he sighed, and after a long time, he said slowly: “I don’t want it, it’s him who doesn’t want it. Since you have already guessed what he is going to do , go find it.”

    Gu Jiusi was stunned. After a while, he realized that Fu Baoyuan was talking about Qin Nan’s whereabouts. Gu Jiusi was about to speak when he heard Fu Baoyuan continue: “He can’t climb mountains.”

    He couldn’t climb the mountain, and he had to go to the east. To the east, except for the official road, he had to climb the mountain, so Qin Nan must have taken the official road. And in order to get rid of people, he must cover up and leave…

    Gu Jiusi thought about it, Fu Baoyuan watched him think, he smiled bitterly: “When you leave, let someone bring me a jar of wine.”

    Gu Jiusi responded, he was about to leave, and when he walked out of the door, he suddenly heard Fu Baoyuan’s voice: “When I came to Xingyang, I was your age.”

    Gu Jiusi paused, and then he heard Fu Baoyuan smile: “In a blink of an eye, it’s already an old bone. If I don’t see you, I forget what I looked like when I was young.”

    Gu Jiusi listened to Fu Baoyuan’s words, he turned his head, he saw Fu Baoyuan sitting cross-legged on the stone bed, he was dressed in official government, and his round face had a vicissitudes of smile.

    At that moment, Gu Jiusi had an illusion, he seemed to see Fu Baoyuan in his twenties, young and high-spirited, sitting cross-legged in front of him, with a firm and serious look, as if he was carrying The idea of ​​helping the world and saving the people is full of blood in my heart and soul.

    What these young people have done, he has done.

    However, the cold blood, the wind and the cold bones.

    Life is the most cruel blade, silently, it can change people into earth-shaking appearances.

    Gu Jiusi looked at Fu Baoyuan blankly, Fu Baoyuan seemed to see his heart, he waved like an elder: “Go, I’ll wait for your wine.”
