Qi Ning knew that the gray crow had already surrendered, he smiled and did not speak, just looked at the porcelain bottle in the gray crow’s hand.

The grey crow naturally understood what Qi Ning meant, so he simply opened the porcelain bottle and took a pill out of it. Put away the ticket, put it in his arms, and then said: “I entered Beijing this time, I thought about dying in the capital, it was nothing more than a gamble.”

Qi Ning clapped his hands and smiled, “Then I can assure you that your choice is right now.” His face suddenly sank, and he said, “Do you know Lu Shanghe?”

“Lu Shanghe?” The gray crow smiled disdainfully: “Naturally, I heard that this person is plotting to be the leader of the beggar gang, and now he is in the hands of the beggar gang.” He glanced at Bai Shenghao and said, “This Bai rudder leader should better than me.”

Bai Shenghao actually didn’t know Duan Qingchen’s relationship with Lu Shanghe. At this time, when he heard Qi Ning suddenly mention Lu Shanghe, he suddenly raised his eyebrows.

Lu Shanghe was exposed at the Qingmu Conference and was imprisoned by the Beggar Gang. Naturally, many people knew about it, but he was rescued afterward, but the Beggar Gang did not publicize it, and not many people know about it so far.

Qi Ning said: “Since you have abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, you might as well say something straight to you. Lu Shanghe has escaped, and now the Beggar Gang is secretly searching.”

Gray Crow was stunned for a moment, and then Qi Ning continued: “As far as I know, Lu Shanghe and Duan Qingchen had an affair with each other, and the two should be on the same page, so Duan Qingchen invited you to Beijing this time, and Lu Shanghe may also be hiding in the capital. ”

“I understand.” The gray crow nodded slightly, glanced at Bai Shenghao, and said, “The beggar gang wants to capture Lu Shanghe, but they don’t know his whereabouts. You want me to keep the appointment and find Duan Qingchen and Lu Shanghe. their whereabouts, and then inform you of their whereabouts.”

Qi Ning said with a smile: “It’s very comfortable to talk to smart people.” He added: “Of course, if I can find out who their target of this assassination is, or what kind of conspiracy they have, I will naturally be here. Rewards.”

The gray crow raised his hand and said, “My words are like a mountain, and it is my rule to keep my promises. I took you a thousand taels of silver. If you die, you should throw the thousand taels into the water. If you live, I will naturally Do your best to find out, and then you will hand over the remaining two thousand taels to me as promised.”

The smile on Qi Ning’s lips was even stronger, and he nodded: “It is indeed admirable to keep the promise.”

The gray crow asked, “If I find clues, will I still come here?”

Qi Ning pointed to Bai Shenghao and said, “Master Bai will contact you, and Master Bai will help you arrange the next thing.”

Gray Crow glanced at Bai Shenghao, and said no more, he walked out the door, walked to the door, looked back, and said, “I hope you keep your promise.” He flew away.

When the gray crow disappeared, Bai Shenghao said softly, “Do you really trust him?”

“He’s a smart guy.” Qi Ning said with a smile, “A smart guy’s choices are practical. And he’s already taken the pill, no one really wants to die.”

Bai Shenghao nodded slightly and said in a low voice, “Why didn’t you hand over this person to the Shenhou Mansion? The Shenhou Mansion doesn’t know anything about this at the moment. It’s easier to find out the truth behind it.”

Qi Ning raised his hand and patted Bai Shenghao’s arm, and said softly, “Brother Bai, do you know who recruited this group of shadow mice into Beijing?”

Bai Shenghao was stunned, knowing that Qi Ning’s question would not be simple, and said softly, “Isn’t it Duan Qingchen?”

“Duan Qingchen is just a lackey.” Qi Ning said, “Even Lu Shanghe is just a lackey driven by others. Behind them, there must be other real masters.”

Bai Shenghao reacted very quickly, understood and said in a low voice, “Master Hou, could it be… Duan Qingchen and Lu Shanghe are involved with officials in the court?”

“I can’t be sure, and I can’t deny it.” Qi Ning shook his head and said with a headache, “Because I can’t be sure,

So be careful with every step.

”

Bai Shenghao already understood what Qi Ning meant.

If you report what happened tonight to the Shenhou Mansion, with the experience and strength of the Shenhou Mansion, it will be twice the result with half the effort to investigate the matter, and the Shenhou Mansion is fully capable of laying a net in the capital, waiting for the shadow mice to throw themselves into the net.

But Qi Ning obviously didn’t trust the Divine Marquis Mansion.

Since the master behind Duan Qingchen may be a member of the court, there is no guarantee that that person is not involved with the Shenhou Mansion. If this is the case, then reporting the matter of Yingmozi’s entry to the Shenhou Mansion will be a shock to the snake. It is very likely that the helper will cancel the plan and plan another action.

Of course, Qi Ning wanted to take this opportunity to find out the real culprit behind him, so he naturally had to be careful.

Thinking that Qi Ning didn’t even trust Shenhou Mansion, but let himself be involved in this matter, which also shows Qi Ning’s trust in him, Bai Shenghao was moved.

“The gray crow will be handed over to you first. If there is any news, you will inform me personally.” Qi Ning got up and said, “Be careful in everything, and don’t startle the snake.”

Bai Shenghao cupped his hands and said, “Don’t worry, Lord Hou, I know what to do. If you have any clues, report to Lord Hou immediately.”

Qi Ning subdued the gray crow, but knew that this was just the beginning. Before leaving the house and returning to the Hou residence, he took off his human-skin mask, and then entered the residence. I walked over and saw that Director Han was sitting on a chair in the corner, clasping his hands tightly on his chest, like a treasure hidden in his arms, tilting his head and snoring.

Qi Ning was amused and coughed twice. Manager Han was awakened immediately. Seeing Qi Ning, he got up and said, “Wait… Lord Hou, you are back.”

“Why did you fall asleep here?” Qi Ning said warmly, “Are you too tired? Sanniang has been taking care of herself these past few days, and everything in the house is not easy to take care of, so I also depend on you. It’s very late, so go back to the house first. Take a rest.”

Manager Han hurriedly said: “Master Hou, this old slave has been waiting for you to come back.” After looking around, he took out a thick stack of silver notes from his arms, “Master Hou, after dark, someone kept asking for money. The mansion sent a silver note, and after they entered the house, they didn’t say much, but said that it was the silver note sent by their master.” He brought them over with both hands: “I ordered it, the total is 22,400. One hundred taels of silver.”

There was a smile on Qi Ning’s lips. It seemed that those officials were quite sensible. They were worried that they would really come to ask for a debt, and it would not sound good to hear it out, so they all sent them over on their own initiative.

“Master Hou, I asked them what kind of money it was, and they didn’t say anything, just turned around and left.” Mr. Han said, “Originally, the old slave wanted to report to the Third Madam, but the Third Madam took care of herself, and no one saw the money. I don’t know how to get into the account, so I didn’t send it to the account room, so I can only wait here for Lord Hou to come back.”

Qi Ning smiled slightly, sat down on the chair, and asked, “How many years has the boss been in Jinyihou Mansion?”

Manager Han said with emotion: “Old Marquis followed Emperor Taizong to quell the chaos, my father was the first to follow the old Marquis, but unfortunately he died early in the battle. The old Marquis had a good heart and sent a lot of money to care for his family. Later, when I got older, my mother ordered me to come to the capital to be a cow and a horse for the old marquis and repay the kindness of the old marquis.” After thinking for a while, he sighed, “It’s been more than 30 years.”

“So, you have worked in Jinyi Hou’s mansion for more than 30 years?” Qi Ning asked.

Manager Han nodded and said, “The old man and the general have been taking care of this old slave. Although the old slave is useless, he is still working in the mansion.” He said with emotion: “There are not many old people in the mansion now, who came from Jiangling back then. Many people who came to the capital to work in Hou’s Mansion had already returned to their hometowns to retire many years ago.”

Qi Ning thought to himself that Director Han had been in the mansion for more than 30 years, so the old man must know some of the many things that happened in Jinyi Hou’s mansion. Liu Suyi disappeared in the mansion for no reason. This Director Han may not know the inside story, but he Knowing that it is inconvenient to ask more questions at this time, he smiled and said, “Where are your family members?”

“The old man married the old slave and gave birth to two sons. The general took great care of our Han family and let us buy dozens of acres of land in Jiangling. My two sons are now in Jiangling.” Han The general manager explained: “The child’s mother passed away a few years ago. Fortunately, the old slave is still in good health and can still serve the Hou Mansion for a few years. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com After a few years, I really can’t move. If the Hou Ye allows it , the old slave asked a son to come over and continue to serve, and the old slave returned to his hometown to retire.”

Qi Ning pondered for a while, and took the five hundred taels of silver and handed it over. Manager Han was startled, but Qi Ning put it into his hand and said, “You take this silver, whether you should keep it for your own retirement or buy land for your children, then It’s up to you to decide. You have worked hard in the Hou Mansion for so many years, and now you have to take care of me, I naturally can’t treat you badly.”

“Master Hou, you must not…!” Manager Han hurriedly pushed back the bank note: “The old slave’s family has been taken care of by the Hou family for decades, and this generation cannot repay, this money… ..!”

“Why, my words don’t work?” Qi Ning frowned: “If you want to take it, take it, just don’t publicize it, lest everyone say I’m partial to you.”

Manager Han showed gratitude in his eyes, hesitated for a while, and finally put it away and said, “Master Hou is very kind, old slave… This old slave can’t finish his revenge in this life.”

“It’s very late, you should go and rest first.” Qi Ning smiled and said: “You are also old, don’t be too tired on weekdays, you can send others to do what you can share, and you have to take care of yourself. ”

Manager Han’s voice choked: “Master Hou…Master Hou is just like the old master of the year, yes…he is very caring for us servants.” His eyes were slightly red, and he suddenly thought of something. , hurriedly said: “Master Hou came back so late, haven’t you eaten yet? The three ladies have sent someone to instruct before that, if Master Hou comes back too late, I will cook you a bowl of red jujube porridge to drink. Eating red jujube porridge will help you fall asleep.”

Qi Ning’s heart was agitated, and he immediately remembered that Gu Qinghan had instructed him before that if someone sent red date porridge, it would be a secret signal. in her house.
