After Ning Shu finished speaking, the official still didn't seem to believe her on the surface. Ning Shu didn't say anything more. Investigating the case was more important, and arguing would only waste time. She secretly sighed in her heart. These people were not as efficient as Xiahou Qing's men.
Tan Siwei took the few pieces of grass in Ning Shu's hand and carefully looked at them. Then, he clapped his hands and praised, "Lady Ning is right. I will immediately take people to search from house to house."
"Thank you, Lord Tan, for your trust. I will rely on you for this matter." After asking Tan Siwei for help again, Ning Shu immediately took her leave. Not far away, someone was waiting for her. It was Chun Niang of Chasing Cloud and Moon Chasing Tower.
Perhaps she had been waiting for a while, Chun Niang had been tiptoeing around the corner of the Supreme Court's entrance. When she saw Ji Yunshu coming, she immediately waved her hand.
Ning Shu's eyes lit up. She stepped forward and said, "Chun Niang, I asked you to ask your sisters about the matter. Did you find any clues?"
Chun Niang said, "In the past few days, I've asked all the sisters I know, and they also asked their own acquaintances. Only then did I get some vague information from one of the sisters. But I don't know if it's useful or not. I wonder if it can help Eldest Miss Ning."
Ning Shu smiled and said, "I have troubled you these days. When the case is solved, I will definitely invite you to drink. As for whether it is useful or not, you can tell me. I will judge for myself. "
"Then I will remember. Lady Ning, don't think you can get away with this wine." Chun Niang covered her mouth and laughed with Ji Yunshu. Then, she returned to the topic, "It's like this. Li Niang of Chong Hua Tower once received a guest. That guest used to come to her every few days. He could be considered her old lover."
"That guy is called Feng San 'er. He used to be a traveling merchant who sold leather goods. He traveled between the Western Regions and the capital all year round. He had a mouth that could coax people to death. But his appearance was really frightening. There was a big lump on his forehead. Because his appearance was not good, he was always disliked by women. He often went out to sell goods and was not in the capital. He was worried that his wife might not be obedient at home even if he got married. So, he has been single for so many years. Every ten to fifteen days, he would come to me. " Li Niang of Chong Hua Tower cracked a small piece of medicine to add color to the pill while telling Ning Shu what she knew about the past.
She was a woman who had long passed her prime, but she was still full of charm. Every move of hers was filled with the charm of a young girl.
Ning Shu quickly caught on, "He used to sell leather goods. Does that mean he changed his profession?"
"Miss is smart." Li Niang's red lips curled up. She looked at Ning Shu from head to toe, "But before I say anything, I have to make it clear to Miss. My relationship with him is just that of a buyer and seller. There is no such thing as a private relationship. No matter what he did, it has nothing to do with me."
Ning Shu understood her concerns and said, "That is natural."
Li Niang put down the medicine and walked to the window to dry it. Then, she began to talk, "About ten years ago, at that time, this person sold leather goods for a living. He had some money in his hands. But this person was really ugly and liked to abuse women. He would often leave whip marks and blood marks on the women's bodies. No sisters in the tower were willing to accept him as a customer, so the brothel mother forced him to me. At that time, I had just been sold to Chong Hua Tower. My father owed a large gambling debt and I had no choice but to deal with him. "
Li Niang stretched out her arm, revealing the old scars on her snow-white arm. Some were deep, some were shallow, some were new, and some were old. Layer upon layer, it was a ghastly sight.
Ning Shu couldn't help but frown.
