Chapter 38 Chapter Thirteen

Not long after Duke Di and Tao Gan left the Dudu's mansion, Qiao Tai came to the study in the West Hall.If I didn't meet, I fell asleep at the desk for a while. Just as he was falling asleep, he suddenly heard the sound of "chirp".Woke up with a start, looked around, but didn't see any insects.Then he bent down to check under the table and chairs, and suddenly an envelope fell out of his lap, the inside was bulging, and he didn't know what it was. Qiao Tai was surprised, picked it up and was about to open it to read, when he saw the words "Mr. Tao Gan bestowed upon it" written on the cover, so he put the envelope on the desk. ——I couldn't help secretly admiring the woman's hands and feet.This letter must have been stuffed into the bosom of the woman who bumped into me, but she turned out to be acquainted with Tao Gan.However, how did she know that I just came out of Ni Tianji's mansion?

While thinking about it, he suddenly heard that the Chinese army accompanied Di Gong and Tao Gan into the study. Seeing that Qiao Tai had returned, Di Gong briefly told Qiao Tai about the meeting with Liang's mansion just now.Busily spread out the volume of Fang Yu Tu Zhi and pointed for half a day, then said: "What Liang Bo said is very important. Mr. Liu may be aware of the vision of the Fan people's chaos, and he sneaked back to Guangzhou for the second time. .——Liang Pu's words prove that Fanke and Shuishangren are connected, the medicine that Mr. Liu poisoned to death was mixed by Shuishangren, and it was the hands and feet of Fanren who killed Master Su."

Qiao Tai said: "However, the murderer who killed Chief Su was strangled to death by the silk scarf of the Waterman. How can this be explained?" Di Gong was speechless.After a long while, he said: "Could it be that the Fanren also have opponents secretly, and the opponents are also wooing the Shuishangren to fight against the Fanren secretly." Qiao Tai then recounted his visit to Ni Tianji's house. Di Gongdao: "Manser is a strange person, you must be careful. Listening to Ni Tianji's voice, he and Manser are not on good terms, and both have criticisms. I even believe that Manser's lover was originally Ni Tianji's good friend. He was once deceived by Manser, but now He returned to Ni Tianji's arms again, so there are all kinds of complaints."

Tao Gan also said: "There are two bewitching concubines in Ni's house, no wonder Bao Kuan said that he lived a dissolute life." "No." Qiao Tai said, "Mr. Ni is honest, honest and loyal, he doesn't look like a person who is greedy for sex and pleasure. He talked with me about swords, weapons and martial arts, and let me see his arsenal of swords and swords. The men here will not be too addicted to the word lewdness. Besides, those two little girls are innocent and innocent, and there is no trace of being ravaged. ——Their mother is Mr. Ni's distant cousin He is like a father to Tingye and Dana. He only teaches literacy and studies articles. Then he cultivates flowers and trees and cultivates artistic interests. The shameless official who concealed his name is hateful."

Mr. Di waved his hand and said: "After you both put your mind on this matter, there is no need to argue. Immediately inform the civil and military officials of the Guangzhou Governor's Mansion that they are here to arrange emergency fire prevention and riot control. There must be no further delay in this matter. " Tao Gan and Qiao Tai bid farewell to Di Gonggong and were about to leave. Qiao Tai suddenly remembered the envelope, so he picked it up from the table and handed it to Tao Gan. "This is given to you by a strange woman. She was guarding me at the door of Ni Tianji's house, and deliberately bumped into me. Before I knew it, she stuffed this bag of rice into my chest. Her hands and feet were very sensitive. I Only later did I realize that it was for you, so I dared not open it.”

Tao Gan was also surprised, opened the envelope and saw that it was a flat silk cage with ivory bone and gold wire network, very delicate. "Qiaotai, look, there is a little cricket inside. I don't know what this woman means by giving me a cricket?" Suddenly he found a corner of the cover covered with an inscribed red seal, and read: "Liu Daoyuan's free chapter." "Qiaotai, Master Liu used this envelope, let's hand it over to the master." Di Gong looked at the envelope of the Red Seal and the cricket silk cage, and was speechless for a while.Suddenly he thought of something, he groped inside the envelope with his hands, and he pulled out a small piece of paper.

The small note is a bill, recording the amount paid by the three Fan merchants after receiving the goods.The three names on the lottery are only the Chinese characters used by Manser alone. Tao Gan said: "Could it be that Mr. Liu has a bribery relationship with Fan Shang, or else, this seal is fake?" Di Gong shook his head and said: "Although this seal is Mr. Liu's calligraphy and painting, it is often used for many public and private affairs. I have seen it many times in the capital, and I think it cannot be forged by others. This bill is very suspicious. It must be Someone intentionally framed Manser and others together with Master Liu to prove the opposite. ——I am afraid that Master Liu deliberately dealt with them to get to the bottom of the matter. His final murder also shows that the original intention of the villain was to destroy He died."

Qiaotai asked: "Who will send this letter?" Di Gong said: "This letter must have been sent by the blind girl with good intentions. This also proves that she has something to do with Master Liu's death, or she was present when Master Liu died. Otherwise, why did Jin Zhong be caught by chance? , and hid this envelope again. ——The words at the back wall of Huata Temple are really fabricated." Tao Gan nodded repeatedly: "She must be well aware of the importance of this envelope, and she also intends to secretly help us find Master Liu's disappearance. As for this cricket, it just told me that she was the one who sent this letter—the blind woman I once rescued, Self-reported."

Di Gong suddenly said: "Qiao Tai, you go to Ni Tianji's residence and invite him here to meet me."
