"Are you talking about Liu San?"
Liu San?
Ji Yunshu nodded, "Yes, I want to know something about him."
The old merchant thought for a moment, "Why is Teacher asking you this?"
"Of course I need to ask. I hope Old Mister can tell me more about Liu San in detail. For example, where is he from? When did he start doing business with you? What is his family background? Who does he often interact with? I want to know a thing or two about these. "
The old merchant was puzzled.
Why did she ask about Liu San for no reason? He said directly, "Liu San started doing business with me last year. He doesn't like to talk and is quite eccentric. He doesn't interact much with people, but he is a good person. He works hard and doesn't complain about anything. He works conscientiously and has helped me a lot. "
。 But … where is he from? He … seems to be from Nanshen. I'm not sure. I don't know his family background. I only heard him mention once that his parents died and he was the only one left in his family. I sympathized with him at that time. "
"Nanshen?"
"Yes … I think so."
Nanshen was Du Mubai and Su Qiao's hometown.
Wasn't this too much of a coincidence?
"Before he came here, what did he do?" Ji Yunshu continued to ask.
"He didn't say! As long as he is willing to work, I won't ask about this. " The old merchant told the truth and asked, "Teacher, did … did Liu San commit a crime?"
Liu San's illness had just subsided, so he couldn't ask any questions.
So he couldn't confirm Ji Yunshu's guess.
She had to put this case aside and investigate Du Mubai's case first.
She said to the old merchant, "I'm just asking casually, nothing else."
"Then …"
"Old Mister, don't worry. As long as the case is solved and you are proven innocent, I believe you will be able to leave soon."
"Ah! I hope so. "The old merchant asked again," How is Liu San now? I heard him scream just now. He didn't have this illness before. What happened recently? "
He was distressed.
Ji Yunshu said, "Don't worry, he has subsided. I will ask a doctor to see him later."
"That's good, that's good …"
Hence, they didn't stay there any longer.
But before she left, she told the jailer guarding Liu San, "When he wakes up, come and inform me."
"Alright!"
He didn't know what Ji Yunshu's intentions were.
When they left the prison, Ji Yunshu said with a serious expression, "I now suspect that the one who killed Su Qiao and the one who met with Du Mubai that day are two different people."
"In other words, there are two murderers."
"Yes! But everything will only be known when Liu San wakes up. "
When they were about to leave the prison, Jing Rong suddenly asked her, "Oh right, you said that Liu San is suffering from mania. Do you know how to treat it? Where did you learn it? "
Ji Yunshu replied, "Mo Ruo taught me!"
Back then, he had left Wei Yi in Mo Ruo's Yuhua Pavilion for treatment, so she would occasionally go to Yuhua Pavilion to take a look. Furthermore, he had been in contact with Mo Ruo for such a long time and had heard Mo Ruo mention it before, so it wasn't surprising that he knew about it.
At the mention of Mo Ruo, Jing Rong unconsciously frowned.
His heart was filled with sadness.
When they left the prison, they saw Li Cheng waiting outside.
After seeing Gong Shilin, he immediately rushed over.
He met Bai Yin and Lang Po outside, so he didn't go in and waited outside with them.
When he saw them come out …
Li Cheng asked, "How was it? Did you find out? What did Fang Tong and Jiang Wen say? "
Ji Yunshu shook her head.
"No clues?"
He shook his head again.
"What's going on? You really can't get anything out of them? "
Ji Yunshu said, "Actually, we didn't get nothing."
"Then what happened?"
Ji Yunshu told Li Cheng the information she obtained.
Li Cheng asked, "You mean, Du Mubai often goes to Drunken Moon Pavilion?"
"If the handkerchief embroidered with the words' Drunken Moon Pavilion 'is correct, then yes."
"That's impossible!"
"Why?"
"… I've also been to Drunken Moon Pavilion several times. There's no way I wouldn't know Du Mubai was there! Besides, that kind of place is only frequented by rich kids. Du Mubai is just a poor scholar, so how could he go there often? "Li Cheng said.
As it turned out, wherever there was a woman, that was where he would go!
Ji Yunshu asked, "Then, do you know of a girl named Lan in Drunken Moon Pavilion?"
"I don't." Li Cheng shook his head, "So, you want to go to Drunken Moon Pavilion now?"
"Yes."
"… This!" Li Cheng's expression turned ugly.
Jing Rong asked, "What's wrong, Crown Prince Cheng doesn't want to go?"
"No, I …" He looked embarrassed and whispered, "You know that people make mistakes when they're young, and it's hard to guarantee that they'll offend a lot of people. You've seen how powerful that Miss Lian is. If I go to Drunken Moon Pavilion now … I might not be able to come out."
This guy's romantic debts were all over Gaoding.
Even Drunken Moon Pavilion had a lot of them!
There must be a lot of women there, and some of them were even more powerful than Miss Lian. If he went there, he would definitely be skinned alive. Who knows, they might even tie him up and cut him into pieces.
It was too risky, and he didn't dare to take the risk.
So, he gave up.
In the end, Li Cheng, Bai Yin, and Lang Po sat in the teahouse opposite Drunken Moon Pavilion and drank tea.
Ji Yunshu and Jing Rong went to Drunken Moon Pavilion together.
Unlike a brothel, Drunken Moon Pavilion was an elegant residence.
Outside, there were no red and green girls soliciting customers, and there was no debauchery inside.
As soon as they entered, they could hear the sound of a girl playing a tune.
There was also singing.
It was pleasing to the ears!
The interior was very spacious, and there was a square platform in the middle. Several girls were scattered around, some playing the zither, some playing the pipa …
In the middle, there was a girl singing.
Jing Rong looked around and said, "It really is an elegant residence. Very elegant!"
The two found an empty table and sat down.
No girls came to disturb them.
Instead, a manservant came over with a pot of tea and asked, "Young masters, would you like to drink tea? Or do you want pastries? "
Jing Rong took out a silver ingot and placed it on the table. "Anything."
Seeing the silver, the manservant accepted it with a smile. First, he served them a pot of high-quality Pu 'er tea, and then some special pastries.
The manservant asked, "Is this your first time here?"
"Yes."
"Then, what music do you want to listen to? Our girls all have golden voices and can play the zither very well. If you're interested, you can go to a private room on the third floor and listen to music alone. "
