Although Lu Dashi comforted Miao Yufeng, saying that those gangsters wanted to exchange Miao Chengzong for gold, Miao Chengzong's safety should be fine.

Yesterday, Lu Dashi also thought the same way, but now, he didn't dare to think so.

All kinds of indications show that the real intention of those gangsters is definitely not the 1,000 taels of gold, but other plans.

This means that, in fact, in the eyes of those gangsters, it doesn't matter whether Miao Chengzong can exchange it for the one thousand taels of gold, what they want should be something more valuable than the one thousand taels of gold.

……

In Miao Yufeng's gaze, Lu Dashi finished dinner with difficulty.

Although it is a good thing to have a beautiful woman with you, it is not good to watch your every move, watch you eat the rice in your mouth, and watch you swallow the rice.

Although the meal was very good, Lu Dashi was full for five or six minutes, so he immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a smile at Miao Yufeng.

"Miss Feng'er, I'm already full, let's go find Steward Zhang now!"

Seeing that Lu Dashi had finished eating so quickly, Miao Yufeng hurriedly asked with concern.

"Brother Lu, are you full, if you are not full, I can wait for you for a while!"

Lu Dashi shook his head, "Now it's important to get down to business, let's hurry up and find Steward Zhang to understand the situation, we can solve this mystery one day earlier, and we can rescue your brother one day earlier." ”

……

After dinner, Steward Zhang was chatting in the living room with Miao Shiwen and Miao Shou'an.

Small talk in the living room has become a rule.

In the small talk, on the one hand, Steward Zhang can report on his day's work, and on the other hand, he can listen to the latest instructions of the masters.

In the past, Steward Zhang just accompanied Miao Shou'an to chat alone, but after Miao Shiwen Zhishi, he accompanied the two masters to chat.

After listening to Steward Zhang's report absentmindedly, Miao Shouan asked.

"Steward Zhang, where did Lord Lu go today?"

Hearing this, Steward Zhang hurriedly replied, "According to the doorkeeper Lao Zhang, early this morning, Mr. Li went out early, Lord Lu and the young man also went out not long after, and the three of them went out at the same time, stayed outside all day, and at dinner, the three of them almost went back to the house with their front and back feet.

As for what Lord Lu is doing, the villain is not clear. ”

When Miao Shou'an heard this, his heart moved, he turned his head to look at his father, and asked suspiciously.

"Father, is Lord Lu suspicious of Mr. Li?"

Miao Shiwen had been keeping his head down, his eyes narrowing slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking, until he heard Miao Shou'an's question, and then said slowly.

"Mr. Li, I remember the first few days, didn't you already check Mr. Li's details, what was the result?"

When Miao Shouan heard this, he turned his head and glanced at Steward Zhang.

Steward Zhang hurriedly stood up and replied respectfully.

"Since Lord Lu came, I have asked people to check Mr. Li's details when he expressed his doubts about the handwriting."

Speaking of this, Steward Zhang's tone paused, and taking this opportunity, he thought about it for a while, and then continued.

"Mr. Li, named Li Wenchang, came to teach for the young master last winter, and it has been more than half a year now.

Before that, Mr. Li had been teaching privately in Miaojia Village, set up by the master.

Mr. Li is extremely talented, very good at teaching, in the two years he has been teaching, there have been two people who have passed the Tongsheng examination.

Mr. Li is a humble and courteous person, no matter who he meets, he will be courteous, so the people in the village are also very friendly to him, and Mr. Li has been unanimously praised by the villagers.

In the last year, the gentleman who taught for the son was old and ready to go back to the elderly, because the identity of the old lady was different, outsiders did not dare to easily recruit into the house, and later, after hearing about Mr. Li's reputation, and listening to the appreciation of Mr. Li from the village, he was recruited to teach in the house.

In the more than half a year that Mr. Li has been here, he has rarely left the house, and even if he goes out, he only buys some daily necessities, and when he buys things, he has not deliberately contacted anyone.

After a long period of observation, I feel that Mr. Li should be a person who keeps to himself. ”

After listening to Steward Zhang's narration, Mu Shiwen was silent for a long time, and then asked slowly.

"Where was Mr. Li and what did he do before he taught private school?"

Hearing this, Steward Zhang lowered his head and thought about it, "Mr. Li was not in the local area before teaching private school, according to the information inquired, he should be in Oasis County in the south."

In the past, his family was not bad, and he had some money to spare, but I heard that he partnered with others to do business, but he lost a lot of money and couldn't stay in the oasis, so he came here. ”

Hearing this, Muse Shiwen nodded, "Oasis County!" Why did this Mr. Li come to Qingyang County? ”

Steward Zhang, "It seems that Mr. Li has relatives here, and he came to Qingyang County to join his relatives." ”

When Miao Shiwen heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Steward Zhang, "Mr. Li has relatives here?" Who are his relatives, have you checked? ”

Steward Zhang, "It is said that Mr. Li's relatives moved away a long time ago. ”

"Even if you move away, who will always know, right?" ”

Steward Zhang nodded hurriedly, "I know, I know, Mr. Li's relative is called Li Changhe, who originally lived in the west of the city, and I have already inquired about his residence and sent someone to it."

According to the people who went to check, Li Changhe's home has indeed been abandoned for a long time. ”

Hearing this, Muse Shiwen suddenly felt a little irritable in his heart, and he couldn't help but gently stretch out his hand and gently tap the table with his hand joints.

Knock Knock......

Hearing the crisp sound of the old lady knocking on the table, for a while, the entire living room suddenly became silent.

At this time, no one dared to speak, everyone knew that this was a subconscious action of Muse Shiwen when he was thinking about the problem.

Steward Zhang looked at Muse Shiwen, whose eyes narrowed slightly, bowed his head and thought, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Haven't you checked carefully enough?

Or is there really something wrong with this Mr. Li!

Thinking of this, Steward Zhang remembered that when he returned to the village, he heard the village chief praise Mr. Li's words to him, and he had a heart that was always carried up, so he seemed a little calmer.

Even if you are wrong, could it be that the people in the village have misread Mr. Li?

After being silent for a long time, Miao Shiwen stopped tapping his fingers on the table and raised his head to look at Steward Zhang.

"Steward Zhang, Li Changhe, have you investigated!"

When Steward Zhang heard this, he was suddenly shocked in his heart, and hurriedly replied.

"No, we investigated Li Changhe last year, and after seeing Li Changhe's house at that time, I felt that what Mr. Li said was fine, so I didn't continue the investigation."
