The "ghost car" dug out of Chekuai's well was surprisingly small.

But think about it, a car that can be thrown into a well is not that big.

"Is it so small?" Zhao Pu felt a little disappointed, "I thought it was so big!

"Listening to the rumors does give people a great feeling!" Zhan Zhao looked at the almost rotten carriage and could vaguely distinguish the image of a ghost, but it didn't feel scary at all.

"Can one person fit in here?" Lin Yehuo felt that the person sitting in this car must be a thin person, and a fat person probably wouldn't be able to get in.

Gongsun took off a piece of wood and shook it hard... and sure enough... it lit up a green flame.

"Maybe it's because there was a fire while driving, so it looks bigger than the actual carriage." Gongsun was curious, "The formula of this medicine is really amazing? It will burn after such a long time, and the fire... is not at all

hot.

Zhan Zhao asked Zhao Pu, had Gao Lianxing arrived at the post?

Zhao Pu shook his head and said that he had sent someone to keep an eye on it. The Dali Museum has been busy renovating these days and no one has come. He is probably still growing a beard.

"If Chen Ming was really an impostor, he probably didn't expect that Zhai Qinbao and the others were not dead." Zhan Zhao felt that Gao Lianxing had not shown up for so long because he was thinking of countermeasures.

"It may be easy to hide it from others, but Zhai Qinbao and the others have known him since childhood, and those three are basically targeting him..." Gongsun felt that he had to be prepared, "Maybe someone sneaked back to Dali and became a fake brother-in-law?

"

"Is it okay to run away like this?" Zhan Zhao asked Zhao Pu, "Didn't you say that we would also have a hundred-day banquet with rice dumplings?"

Zhao Pu shook his head, "If you accept the imperial edict and take office as an envoy, is it okay to run away? Then go back and be more gentle about leaving your post without permission and focusing on the crime of bullying the emperor... Besides... I always feel that there is still a task that has not been completed!"

"Mission?" Everyone was curious, "What mission?"

"Why do you think the emperor asked people to dig out the underground tunnels and then fill them with soil?" Zhao Pu crossed his arms and shook his head, saying that you didn't understand Zhao Zhen too well. "Do you really think he just wanted to fill the holes? He doubted Dali's

Help people find some treasure in Kaifeng City."

Everyone thought he had Zhao Zhen’s style, “Baby?”

"Gao Ruiguang came to Kaifeng City in person and was killed." Zhao Pu analyzed, "Gao Liantai stood still and carried out a borrowed knife to kill people... to get rid of Gao Ruiguang. No matter it was Gao Ruiguang or Gao Ruiyuan who died, they were both in Kaifeng City

After staying for a while, it is more likely that we will join forces to solve the Oiran case, right?"

Everyone nodded.

"The fathers of Gao Ruiguang and Gao Ruiyuan, who were Gao Fang's brothers... had a ghost car case in Kaifeng." Zhao Pu continued, "From the ghost car case to the Oiran case, they all have something to do with the flying mandrill. Do you remember

Don’t you remember that bank theft case that was almost forgotten?”

"Although Wang Feiyu said that he had no money when the bank was stolen, the bank was still turned upside down. She is not sure whether anything was really taken." Gongsun also felt that everything did not actually revolve around Dali.

Help people, but focus on the bank that was stolen that year. "All evidence related to the bank has been destroyed, the bank is gone, the murder of the officials, the library of the household department was burned... We don't know if there is really something."

baby?"

"It was because of that treasure that Gao Ruiguang risked his return to Kaifeng Mansion, and Gao Liantai seemed to know that he would be in danger if he came." Zhao Pu felt that the group of people had not found what they were looking for, "So Gao Lianxing's mission did not

Finished, he waited for Gao Ruiguang's death to take office again, and he should take the things back. So even if Chen Ming replaces Gao Lianxing, the tasks that should be completed must be completed!"

Everyone thinks it makes sense.

"Then does Gao Liantai know about Chen Ming's existence?" Zhan Zhao was a little curious, "Is it possible for the two of them to join forces?"

"No way..." Lin Yehuo frowned, "Aren't you trying to trick your own girl?"

"Perhaps you are very dissatisfied with your original brother-in-law?" Gongsun felt that judging from their behavior, the Gao family was not a fuel-efficient person.

"It is indeed possible to join forces. The plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife may have been arranged by Chen Ming, but as for the back-and-forth thing..." Zhao Pu smiled slightly, "Maybe it was originally a plan to kill the donkey, but now it is the opposite!"

Everyone didn't understand, "On the contrary?"

"Gao Liantai's strategy may be to have Gao Lianxing kill Gao Ruiguang, and after Gao Lianxing finds the things, he will then have Gao Lianxing killed, and put all the blame on him, and then his subordinates will secretly take the things back." Zhao Pu hugged him.

He crossed his arms and said, "Gao Lianxing was born as a slave and engaged in mischief outside. Gao Liantai is most likely dissatisfied with him. If Gao Liantai really loves his sister, he must think that scumbag Gao Lianxing is not worthy of his sister, so he will kill him before he does anything else."

.If Gao Liantai has no feelings for the girl, then she is a girl anyway, so of course she will marry a more powerful person to get some capital for herself, right? Marrying a domestic slave is nothing!"

Both Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo frowned in disgust.

Zhao Pu said as he put his hand on Gongsun's shoulder, "These days, there are very few men in high positions who are as affectionate and righteous as me..."

Before he finished speaking, he asked Gongsun, who was making medicine, to beat his hands with a medicine roller.

The Ninth Prince waved his hands and bumped Gongsun with his shoulder. What does that mean - do you think so?

Gongsun glanced at him - Young Master!

Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo raised their eyebrows and looked at the two of them, turning their faces together, one looking for Zou Liang and the other looking for Bai Yutang.

But neither of them are there.

Zou Liang went to the military camp today. A batch of official ships that he had ordered earlier arrived. General Zuo wanted to accept them.

Bai Yutang was more experienced in inspecting and accepting ships, so he went with Zou Liang to help.

After Zhao Pu finished teasing Gongsun, he continued his analysis, "Most people don't know about the secret yard where bats are kept in Dali Guanyi. Maybe Gao Lianxing himself doesn't know it. A murder case in Guanyi will definitely attract investigation... Once it is found out...

Someone secretly raised so many bats, and if Gao Lianxing happens to die at the hands of a bat, then all the blame can be thrown to him."

Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo both touched their chins - oh, it's still a plan to kill two birds with one stone!

"Then didn't the performance go wrong this time?" Zhan Zhao asked, "Chen Ming pretended to be Gao Lianxing. Even if he really got the treasure, if he went back to deliver the goods, he would be killed by Gao Liantai in another way without being exposed, right?"

"Maybe he killed Gao Liantai?" Gongsun said while pounding the medicine vigorously. "If Gao Liantai dies, then Gao Lianxing will successfully take over the Gao family and become the second in command of Dali. Didn't the Miao elder predict it before?

He will definitely usurp the throne in the future..."

Zhao Pu crossed his arms and thought for a while, feeling that if it came true, it would be an inspiring counterattack - from a slave who was given away to the emperor of Dali!

"We talked about it for a long time..." Lin Yehuo asked Zhao Pu, "Did Zhao Zhen find any treasure?"

Zhao Pu spread his hands and said, "There just aren't any."

Zhan Zhao asked Gongsun about the autopsy of the skeletons. Can the cause of death be found out?

Gongsun shook his head in embarrassment, "The environment in the underground sewer was too bad. There was nothing left except the bones, and the bones were all broken and incomplete. It was difficult to determine the cause of death.

Zhan Zhao sighed helplessly - does that mean we can only wait? If Gao Lianxing didn't show up, there really would be no way to investigate the case further.

…

On the other side, Zou Liang's acceptance of the ships went smoothly, and Bai Yutang also felt that these ships were well built after inspecting them.

Zou Liang continued to arrange for the boat to enter the dock at Shuizhai, and Bai Yutang went back first.

When the fifth master went out in the morning, Gongsun asked him to go to Manji and pick up the fourth son when he came back.

The fourth son goes to Manji once or twice a month to review accounts and try new products, and also has a small meeting with Man Muhua.

When the fifth master came to Man Kee, the housekeeper said that the boss and the young boss opened a new branch in Man Kee, the one in Bai Ling Yuan.

Bailing Garden is the zoo newly built by the Fifth Master. It is connected into one area, including Fang Jingxiao’s Bird Garden, Gongsun’s Hundred Medicine Garden, Fifth Master’s Bailing Garden, and the Royal Paddock at the back. Zhao Zhen also joined in the fun and renovated it.

It became the Baishou Garden. But there were no animals in the paddock, so it was finally changed to the Baishou Garden for the elderly to take a walk for good luck.

The fifth master hasn't been to the newly built Manjie branch yet, so he happened to go and have a look. On his way back, he went to Taibaiju to buy some wine. It was the time of year to buy three glasses of wine, his master's "favorite".

Arriving at Bailing Garden, Mr. Wu first went to see the bamboo bears.

The Bamboo Bear Garden here is the largest garden outside of Sichuan. The Tang Sect sent a letter, saying that when Tang Xiaomei and Long Qiaoguang return to Kaifeng in a while, they will bring another batch of bamboo bears.

Several bamboo bears were nibbling bamboo shoots in the yard, and a group of children gathered outside the fence and were eating bamboo shoot candies.

This bamboo shoot candy is actually a larger pine nut candy, made into the shape of a bamboo shoot, and the children look at the bamboo bears while eating it.

The fifth master looked at the bamboo bear for a while and then walked towards Manji Xiaolou. On the way, he met the alpaca team first... These alpacas were all raised by Yin Hou and brought from the Western Regions. They came in all colors, big and small.

, he is quite bold and will not hide from anyone he sees.

The fifth master consciously gave way and watched the alpaca team walking past the path and strolling to the pasture to eat fodder.

Continuing to walk forward, a group of sika deer ran past me again. Some of them even recognized Mr. Wu. They were all sika deer sent from Icefield Island.

After walking a few steps further, several huge tortoises passed by slowly.

This turtle was brought over from the Western Regions by Master Wu Sha. Now that he is old, it is not a problem even if a child is hunched over his back. Even though the turtle walks slowly, it has a big appetite and can eat a whole pumpkin in one meal.

.

The fifth master was not in a hurry, and watched several big turtles lining up and walking forward with his hands behind his back. The fifth master even went to the roadside to pick up two big pumpkins and feed them to them.

It's such a short journey from Zhuxiong Garden to Manji Xiaolou. It took Mr. Wu almost half an hour to walk.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw the fourth son carrying a cloth bag and coming out with Man Muhua.

"in vain!"

When the fourth son saw Bai Yutang, he ran towards him like a little butterfly.

Man Muhua originally planned to take the fourth son off in a carriage, but when he saw Bai Yutang coming to pick him up, he pointed to the carriage and asked him if he wanted to go by car.

The fifth master looked at the fourth son.

The fourth son said he wanted to go to the Hundred Medicine Garden and then the Hundred Bird Garden, and waved goodbye to Man Muhua.

Man Muhua took the car back by himself.
