"Uh-huh!"

The madam nodded hurriedly.

"Regarding the shepherd of your family, is there a mysterious person looking for you? Says there is a way to save her?"

Gu Qingqiu asked as he pulled the ball of cloth from the madam's mouth.

"No! No!"

After the madam finished speaking, she began to beg for mercy, crying with snot and tears: "I don't know anything, can you let me go?"

Gu Qingqiu asked Lin Bai the necessary questions and began to ask Lin Bai to use the torture method.

This old bustard was not as strong-willed as Shen Caishen, and Lin Baici had not even used torture before she did it. However, in order to confirm the authenticity of the answer, 'torture' was still used.

The old bustard was so frightened that he fainted.

"There is no mysterious person looking for the madam. It seems that this innocent man is innocent!"

Analysis of Xia Hong Yao.

"Wrong. Although the madam said that she has a good relationship with the widower, they are not family members after all, and they are most likely not a community of interests."

Gu Qingqiu corrected: "If you are looking for a mysterious person, you should also look for a husband, but a husband has no value other than beauty!"

"These beautiful girls are all going to be presented to the emperor. They should not be bad in appearance."

Hua Yueyu interrupted.

"If the mysterious person found the prostitute, it would be difficult to investigate, because a prostitute is brought to and taken to her every day, and she comes into contact with too many people!"

Jin Yingzhen frowned.

"The only thing that is certain is that there should be something wrong with the newly appointed sentencing officer!"

Analysis by Gu Qingqiu.

She just asked the madam, among the guests received by the madam some time before the fire, who went the most and who went the least?

After receiving these people, the Qing steward had any special reaction.

The execution official went there twice, which was not too many times. However, as a newly appointed official, he knew that the emperor's draft was well known and he still wanted to see the Qing shepherds. Isn't it unreasonable?

And this sentencing officer is currently in charge of this case.

Lord Fu Yin wanted to solve the fire case, but a certain show girl accidentally knocked over an oil lamp, which resulted in a tragedy, but the executioner insisted on saying that there was a hidden secret.

This is a determined effort to rectify a group of people.

"This madam should know nothing."

Gu Qingqiu arranged: "Hong Yao, Xiao Yu, Yin Tong, you keep an eye on Shen Caishen's home, find out who his confidants are, and then follow these confidants when they go out!"

"Hongyao, go collect the information about the executioner and the shepherd, not just from the surface and in the files, but also from the streets and alleys to find out everything about the three generations of their ancestors!"

"Alumni, go and check the properties of Shen Caishen, mainly his farm outside the city, as well as the temples and Taoist temples near the city... Any places where people can be hidden, check them out!"

In ancient times, when transportation was inconvenient and people needed guidance when traveling far away, it was impossible for a group of women to escape far away, so there was a high probability that they would hide somewhere in the suburbs.

At dawn, everyone changed their nests and started taking action.

In the next two days, everyone was very busy.

After Shen Caishen returned home, he fell ill and was bedridden.

The Shen family is a large family, and many people come and go every day. Perhaps this kidnapping made him more vigilant. For three days, several of his confidants did not go out.

Lin Baici rode a horse and rode in the countryside for two days. He visited several temples and Taoist temples, and also went to several farms owned by Shen Caishen, but he didn't get much useful information.

Xia Hongyao tried his best to collect information.

The next night, the fisherman who went out to collect clues came back. After meeting Li Yintong, he was overjoyed to know that Lin Baici had arrived.

Now I don't have to worry about it anymore.

Yudanguo is not afraid of fighting to the death, but what he is most afraid of is this kind of brain-shaking rules pollution.

After a brief exchange of greetings, everyone got down to business.

"Brother Yu, what's the harvest?"

Lin Baici made a cup of coffee for Yudanguo.

To be honest, drinking this stuff in ancient times was a bit against the rules.

"The grandfather who was appointed as the executioner and the grandfather who was the shepherd of the Qing Dynasty were elected in the same year."

Yudanlao has spent a lot of thought these days: "The father of the gentry committed a crime, and the family fell into ruin, and the girl also ended up in a brothel!"

"I think it was the executioner who accidentally met the daughter of an old friend in Xiaoxiang Tower, so he planned this arson case for her sake!"

"Isn't this wrong?"

Jin Yingzhen didn't agree: "Their relationship is from my grandfather's generation. Is it worth risking everything for a brothel prostitute?"

If this is discovered, not only will he lose his official position, but the Nine Clan will be punished.

"Actually, we don't need to figure out the ins and outs, just one point!"

Lin Baici raised his index finger: "Even if all those beautiful ladies are not alive, the daughter of the Qinghuan and Shen Caishen should still be alive. As long as we find them, the answer will be solved!"

"The question is how to find it?"

Xia Hongyao racked his brains.

"If you ask me, I will kidnap the executioner and torture him directly!"

Yudan Guy clenched his fists: "I don't believe he won't do it!"

"It's so unskilled to do this!"

Gu Qingqiu shook his head.

"Start at Shen Caishen's house!"

Gu Qingqiu arranged: "Also, go and kidnap Mr. Fu Yin!"

That night, Yudan Lao took action and tied Fu Yin to the small courtyard.

The first thing the governor did when he woke up was to yell loudly: "Who are you? Kidnapping an official of the imperial court is a capital crime!"

"I have a grudge against the executioner, and I want to see him die!"

Gu Qingqiu's first sentence made Fu Yin calm down.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

"what do you want to do?"

The governor asked.

"Deploy all the detectives, soldiers and horses, and launch a city-wide manhunt. We must make the situation louder."

Gu Qingqiu explained.

"You want to scare the snakes and make them get into trouble and jump out on their own initiative?"

Fu Yin was not stupid and immediately guessed Gu Qingqiu's purpose.

"No way?"

Hua Yueyu saw that Fu Yin seemed to be in a dilemma.

"If you do this, if no evidence is found, I will be impeached!"

The governor smiled bitterly: "Besides, I am not qualified to search those wealthy mansions!"

Such a search by the governor directly offended the local tycoons and squires, and it would be difficult to carry out all future work.

Of course, this is not an issue that Gu Qingqiu and the others care about.

"You either do it or die!"

Gu Qingqiu's voice was cold.

In a pool of stagnant water, things will appear only if it is moved.

Maybe those girls are also waiting for an opportunity. What I do is to create a chance for them to survive!
