chapter 275
Gu Yundong paused, frowning and pulling Yang to the side.
How did ?? come so quickly? ?
Just thinking about it, someone from the room came out, a man in a messenger's costume.
is the one Gu Yundong knew, the leading officer who came over after she rescued the child in the inn that day.
The officer stood at the door of the main room, winked at her, and told her to close the courtyard door first.
Gu Yundong had a good impression of him. Not long after the Paihuazi were captured that day, it was said that he was asked about the whereabouts of the children kidnapped during the Lantern Festival.
is also lucky, they originally planned to abduct Bai Yang and left, but they did not expect to be bumped by Gu Yundong, and they were really caught.
Later, the government even sent money to Gu Yundong, saying that it was from the child's family.
Therefore, when this official sent a mysterious appearance, she closed the courtyard door even though she was puzzled.
Immediately took Yang into the main room.
The official surname was Li, and he said after they came in, "I'm sorry, I'm scared to scare you by not inviting me in, I just had to do it because I was afraid of scare the snakes."
Gu Yundong was puzzled, "What is it that scare the snake?"
Li Guanchai explained, "I'm afraid you don't know, last year Qing'an Mansion was in great chaos. At that time, a bandit leader took the opportunity to enter the city and killed a lot of people. Xuanhe Mansion sent troops to suppress it. As a result, the bandit leader escaped. It was a miraculous painter from Xuanhe Mansion who drew the appearance of the bandit, and only then did the bandit be brought to justice within three days."
Magical... painter? ?
"It's a pity that although the robber has already been beheaded, the little thieves under his hands have not been captured. The portrait that the girl took out today should be the same person as the one who painted the leader of the robber. When the prefect learned about this, he guessed that some small thieves might come to the door to inquire about the painter, so he immediately summoned all the catching guards and went to the house of the person who posted the portrait today, waiting for the rabbit and catching the turtle in the urn. "
Gu Yundong couldn't help but slightly widened his eyes, "..." Where did the new emperor find such a smart new prefect, he even thought of this.
In fact, Gu Yundong also guessed that the little thief would come to ask about the painter, so she also wrote an anonymous letter to analyze the situation, and planned to send it to the yamen in a while, and to the hand of the official surnamed Li in front of her.
She even thought about what if the yamen didn't take it to heart? Therefore, the few houses I went to last night were specially selected, such as the two brothers in the blacksmith shop who were tall and difficult to mess with, such as a large family with a nursing home, such as a family who lived near the Yamen and also had a few men at home... …
Small thieves are generally not happy to find people who are so uncertain and may expose themselves, so in the end, they can only choose the weakest and unfounded only mother and daughter... themselves.
She planned to send the Yang family to Cao's house for one night tonight, and then wait to see if any little thieves would come.
Unexpectedly, before she had time to do anything, the prefect had already thought of it.
Although Gu Yundong has never met the current emperor, from the various things he did after he ascended the throne, and from the promising officials he assigned to govern towns and cities, the Kingdom of Jin would definitely prosper under his governance.
Li Guanchai saw that she didn't speak, and thought she was frightened. "You don't have to be afraid. I'm not alone here.
Gu Yundong raised his head, "Of course I'm not afraid, I just assumed there was no one else in my family and went about my own business."
