Chapter 17 Silver taels stolen

In the early morning, with a little dew and the cold wind that always blows from time to time, this winter looks even colder.

Liu Shinan got up early in the morning and added an extra cotton jacket. After washing up, he knocked on the door of Qiyuan Xue’s room. After they came out of Zuiyuelou Restaurant last night, they rode their horses along the long street and headed east. When they were about to leave Zhuque County, they settled in a place called Hanchan Inn. The two of them went to work all night during the day and met thieves again at night. They were very tired. After each returned to their room, they were awakening to this day.

While Liu Shinan knocked at the door, he looked down at the inn. There were people here for the New Year early to have breakfast. There were about a dozen people below, which was lively. Looking at the scene, the weather outside was not bad. After knocking on the door, he shouted a few more names, but there was no one in the room. Liu Shinan was a little surprised and thought, thinking, maybe he hadn't woken up yet?

Just when I was about to go downstairs to have some hot porridge for breakfast, I saw Qi Yuanxue drinking hot porridge at a wine table. Liu Shi walked over secretly and shouted to the inn: "Come on the bowl of slippery chicken lean meat porridge, don't be too thin." With a sentence in the store, "Okay, please wait."

Liu Shi looked at Qi Yuanxue secretly, and saw that she was wearing a white windbreaker, wearing a white velvet-covered brocade scarf, holding a bowl of hot porridge in her hand, chewing it slowly, and occasionally wiping off the residue on her lips with an embroidered jade scarf. Luo Luo was like a lady from a wealthy family. After watching this for a while, the waiter had already brought the hot porridge over.

Liu Shi secretly drank hot porridge and said, "Qi Yuanxue, why do you have the slogan of the four evil girls in the world? When I see that you behave in other ways, you look graceful and smart. Although you are older, have a bit of a temper and have a higher martial arts skills, the others are no different from those in the boudoir. Moreover, this beautiful face is hardly a person in the world to compare with one or two people."

Qi Yuanxue put down the bowls and chopsticks and said, "Are you finished?" Liu Shi secretly swallowed a mouthful of porridge, as if he heard some unfriendly, and replied, "I'm done." "I've given the money for the meal, I have no money." "Okay, I can still afford the money for a breakfast."

"Last night, a thief should have come to your room. I was too tired and didn't get up. I hope you still have silver." Qi Yuanxue said a word and walked upstairs.

Liu Shi listened secretly and disagreed, but seeing Qi Yuanxue's tone, he didn't lie to himself. After paying the remaining silver in his arms, he ran upstairs with a arrow, "Don't block the way, get out of the way. If my silver is gone, you and I will never finish it, Qi Yuanxue."

Liu Shi rushed to his room secretly, then screamed, feeling very sad, with a little sadness: "My silver, my silver, how can I survive without you? This long road is about to starve to death."

Qi Yuanxue leaned against the railing and said, "It's not that I stole your silver. You and I have nothing to do. What's the saying?"

Liu Shian held an empty package and said, "There are 1,000 taels of silver notes inside, and some scattered silver. That's all my money. You know that a thief is coming, but you don't wake me up. If you sue the official uniform, you are an accomplice." Qi Yuanxue inserted his hand in front of his chest and said, "Liu Shian, you young master, have no ability, but you have a trick to frame the thief. Anyway, you and I are all sinners. If you sue the official uniform, do you think anyone believes you?"

Liu Shian was really desperate and said, "This is still under the jurisdiction of Yunting Imperial City. It is either a kidnapper or a thief. It really makes me feel heartbroken. If not, I want to ask the shopkeeper to ask a few questions."

Liu Shian rushed downstairs and shouted, "Shopkeeper, come out for me."

The owner of Hanchan Inn is a half-old woman named Jin Xiangyu. She was wearing jewelry and makeup a little heavy. She hurried over and asked, "What's the matter with this guest official? If you have something to say, don't quarrel about doing business."

Liu Shi secretly threw the package on the ground and said, "I got thieves in my room yesterday, and all the silvers were stolen. How do you deal with it?"

Jin Xiangyu picked up the wrapping fabric and said, "Our store is operated by small businesses. All the waiters are the ones who wipe the floor are my family. They are all pure and good people. They will never do this theft. Moreover, the inn will close the doors and doors at night, and thieves cannot enter. If the young master and silver are stolen, unless they are thieves with high martial arts skills or customers in the store." The boss's wife also takes care of her. First, she has cleared her relationship and protected her reputation. Second, she has given her own guesses and has a candidate for thieves.

Liu Shi secretly listened to these words and felt reasonable, and said, "How many people stayed in the hotel yesterday? Show me the check-in record book."

Jin Xiangyu and Liu Shian walked to the counter. Jin Xiangyu opened the record book of the stay, looked at it, and said, "There are two permanent residents who come here to do business. They are all responsible for eliminating suspicion. There are three others, one of whom is a military officer from the north. They chatted with him for a few words and said that they were joining Yunting City, but they didn't listen to him again."

Seeing that the young master did not answer, Jin Xiangyu continued, "The other two, one man and one woman, are both talking less. The men dress simply, like passers-by, and the women dress better, and they are the same age as you."

Liu Shi asked secretly, "Have these three checked out?" Jin Xiangyu replied, "It's too early now, how can you get up early to the young master? Should you report it to the government? Although the county magistrate has not yet taken office, there are still county magistrates who can handle all kinds of things." Liu Shi said secretly, "Let me think about it."

At this moment, a military officer walked down from the third floor, dressed in a military general, carrying a big knife on his waist, making a heavy sound on the stairs. On the second floor, he looked at Qi Yuanxue leaning against the railing and wrapped a gray one out and said, "Is this what you lost?" Qi Yuanxue took the package, grabbed it, and knew what was inside, and said, "That's it."

The general walked down directly, and a voice came from behind: "If I had been put before, I would have killed you here."

Qi Yuanxue said: "If it were before, I wouldn't show mercy. Should I ask you to kill Wuhou Cui En from the north, or call you the new General of the Golden Armor Guard General Cui."

The northern part of the killing of Wuhou Cui En was originally one of the commanders of the army to fight against the Northern Wei. The Northern Wei was the northern country of Daling Kingdom. It occupied the Beizhou grassland and developed its own country. Due to location reasons, harsh environment, and survival needs, the Northern Wei often sent troops to attack the city of Daling Kingdom. The battle between the two countries lasted for thirteen years and was not calmed down.

Cui En played a crucial role in fighting the Northern Wei Dynasty. Every time he won a Northern Wei city, he would massacre a Northern Wei man, which was very bloody, so the Northern Wei people gave him a synonym for bloodthirsty. Because he was also the Wuhou of Daling Kingdom, he was called Wuhou of the world.

Cui En stopped at the connection of the two steps and spoke, "Your news is very informative. Even when I returned to Yunting, Qi Yuanxue, you'd better not go back to Yunting, otherwise even if you submit your apology and receive forgiveness from the Lord, I will also kill you down."
