I played as an assistant in ancient times

Chapter 300 Find the Right Person

Shen Changsui observed his mother's expression and saw that she seemed to be recalling something, so he quietly signaled everyone to keep quiet.

But there are always places that are not affected by him, such as the "meow" sound outside the door, which means the little black cat has returned.

It swept past the Mi family's grandparents and grandchildren who were playing outside the study and rushed directly into the open room. The blood and smell of blood on its body frightened Shen Xiaoye so much that she picked it up and checked it.

The little black cat meowed and sent a message: "I'm not injured, I just went into the dungeon."

After Shen Xiaoye interpreted, Grandma Lin hurriedly said, "Xiaoye, go wash it, and Geng Ge'er should go and help."

"Meow meow meow..." The baby in my aunt Huang's arms also wanted to go.

Huang, who knew that her mother-in-law intended to send everyone away, went to give the cat a bath as well.

The little black cat that didn't like water was suddenly surrounded by a group of people. When it couldn't help struggling, Fu Ge'er and Mr. Pan's grandson clapped and laughed.

It snorted and transmitted, "Not only did I get stained with blood and almost get exposed, but I haven't found your grandfather yet.

But I have other discoveries, I’ll tell you if you wash gently.”

"Don't move, wash quickly." Shen Xiaoye didn't listen to him, and was afraid that it would get cold, so she asked her cousin to add some hot water from time to time.

At this time, she held up the cat and showed it what was being said in the study.

At this moment, Lin said to her youngest son and Mr. Pan, “When Gu Shan was in Qiu County, in addition to liking to hang out at the pier, he actually had a lover.

That person died in a subsequent epidemic, and the place where she lived was not damaged by the refugees.

There is no account book at Gu Shan's house, so it may be at her house."

"Mother, the guards from the Guards Department may have searched our house long ago.

Besides, I actually have doubts about what kind of account books Gu Shubao has. "Based on the consistent style of some people in the Guard Bureau, Shen Changsui had reason to suspect that they first used the dead Gu Shan to introduce the so-called account books.

Create a sensation and arrest people related to Uncle Gu for interrogation. In the end, even if he didn't have the evidence, they will fabricate evidence to prove that he did, but was unable to hand it over to his superiors in time due to an accidental death.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the target that the commander of the Guard Division wants to bring down has indeed been involved in smuggling salt a few years ago, and on a large scale.

He asked, "Dad, do you also know about Uncle Gu's matter?"

“Gu Shan was very careful, your father and the neighbors didn’t know about it.

If we really find some account books, we can hand them over to the Guardian Department and get your father and elder brother back. Wouldn't that be better?" Lin was concerned about the safety of her family.

Seeing that his apprentice didn't know how to explain it to Mrs. Lin, Mr. Pan said slowly, "It's not easy to leave the Northern Yamen. Especially since the current commander is greedy for money."

"As long as the person comes out, we will find a way to get any amount of silver." Lin also knew that if he went into that place, he would either die or be badly beaten.

Mr. Pan broke her fantasy: "He doesn't lack money, he needs people."

"No... no." Lin came to her senses and immediately looked at her son. "You go to Mobei to investigate military intelligence for the sake of the country and the people, but I will never allow you to be a secret agent of the Imperial Guards."

"Don't worry, mother. Your son won't do it." Shen Changsui poured her a cup of tea and said carefully:

"Xiao Ye said that my admission document to the Imperial College has been delivered, and I want to take it to the emperor to express my gratitude."

"Do not……"

"Mom, listen to me. If Dad and Big Brother are locked up all the time, it will be hard for me to get into school."

The study room suddenly fell silent. Shen Xiaoye could no longer hear Little Black Cat's continued broadcast. She thought that her fourth uncle had asked her to make an appointment with someone, and he must be going to find Master Lin to pass the message to the palace, but she was not sure whether or when the message could be delivered.

Thinking of what the cat had just said it had discovered, she quickened the pace of washing it, and in a moment it was clean.

"Mrs. Mi, Auntie, I'm taking the cat to eat some of its cat food.

It was too hungry to move." She had to communicate with it in private.

When she returned to the courtyard where her grandmother lived, she was met with two cold stares. "Slander! I am dizzy because of what you have done. I am not hungry."

Shen Xiaoye flattered him, "It's just a reason, don't take it too seriously. I'll order two plates of squirrel fish for you later to compensate."

"Hmph, that's better." The little black cat decided to forgive her this time.

Shen Xiaoye's eyes sparkled. She took out a piece of cheese from the space to feed it, and waited for it to speak.

The little black cat rolled it over and finished eating, then said, "I saw the eunuch behind the emperor.

It was the tall, strong, red-faced man I saw on the grassland last time. He was arguing with some great governor, saying that he was making a big fuss about the little ones and not arresting the officials of the Salt Transport Bureau. Instead, he arrested a lot of civilians who were not even remotely related to the salt transport bureau and brought them to Beijing. He was trying to discredit the emperor."

Shen Xiaoye asked again: "And then?"

“After cursing, I went to the dungeon to check who was there, so I could find him and follow him.

But your grandpa and uncle were not there. I searched for a long time but to no avail. On my way back, I discovered that the eunuch actually lived next door to your newly bought house.

It turns out that eunuchs can live outside the palace! I thought he served the emperor all day.

Hey, what is he scolding? Is the Grand Commander scolding on behalf of the emperor? Will your grandpa and uncle be sent home soon? "After the little black cat finished a long string of words, he felt very thirsty and signaled her to pour it.

"I don't know." Shen Xiaoye finished drinking the water, "What do you think, how about we go visit him?"

"Ah? Why are you looking for him?" Little Black Cat was puzzled.

Shen Xiaoye said: "He may be able to take my grandfather and uncle out of the Guard Bureau directly. If that doesn't work, I can ask him to pass on the message to the emperor and ask for an audience. He is much more useful than Scholar Lin."

"But why should he help you?" The little black cat stood up straight and looked at her like a fool.

Shen Xiaoye asked: "Remember the old military doctor on the battlefield?"

"Remember, the general branch orders you to work." The cat nodded.

Shen Xiaoye recalled: "I asked him about the origin of the red-faced eunuch, and he said that he was from Taozhou, a Western country, and believed in Buddhism.

Oh, it is the local Buddhism in Xifan, which is different from that in the Central Plains.

It is also said that this eunuch Hou went to Weizang and brought back a large number of monks to meet the emperor. After the emperor rewarded him, the southwest region prospered.

"Naive, do you think that all Buddhists are philanthropic people?" The little black cat disagreed.

Shen Xiaoye nodded in agreement, but said: "Everything in the world is nothing but profit. Taozhou where his people are located is close to Weizhou of the Wang family.

Next year when we take a trade route there, we will give his people cloth at a price equivalent to the purchase price at the local cloth shop. Do you think he will be willing to help?"

"You're not giving it away for nothing."

"It's not good to give it away for free, a piece of cloth two meters long can be exchanged for a sheep.

Let's go to the street to buy some gifts now while he is at home.

Can you help me keep an eye on his house so I don't come back empty handed?" Shen Xiaoye searched the space and found that there was no pure silk inside, so he had to go out to buy it.

She left as soon as she said she was leaving, saying goodbye to her aunt. On the surface, she was going to see Scholar Lin, but in fact she was looking for Eunuch Hou.

Shen Cungeng, who was traveling with him, couldn't understand why his sister went to see Master Lin and bought a brick of rock sugar tea and then bought a piece of white silk to cut.

When he asked her, she just told him to follow him and not to ask too many questions. She drove the car to Bimo Hutong.

"The door where the little black cat is squatting is the house you bought?" But, what are you doing here?

"Shh..." The car stopped at the door. After Shen Xiaoye got out, she held up the white silk and said to him, "Knock on the door!"

Hope she finds the right person.
