After the immortal disappeared
Chapter 800 Unable to find evidence
"General He is very diligent. He spends most of his time not in the palace but in the military camp. He even eats in the camp." Qiu Hu said, "It took me a while to sneak into the military camp."
He Lingchuan gave him a thumbs up.
The military camp is no different from other places, so the chance of being exposed is very high.
"What about a small amount of time left?"
"He spent the whole day the day before yesterday inspecting supplies, and suddenly left the camp in the evening. Without letting the guards follow him, he took Butler Wu's carriage to Si Tong Town." Qiu Hu added, "The carriage was gray and plain and very ordinary. , it’s no different from an ordinary carriage and horse carriage, and it doesn’t have your family’s emblem. Only Butler Wu and the groom are on the carriage.”
"Si Tong Town?" He Lingchuan had no idea in his mind.
While talking, the food was served.
What he orders are all quick dishes, otherwise they are pre-made and the kitchen makes them very quickly.
"Fifteen miles west of the capital, you will find a town with less than 2,000 people and rich agricultural products." The roasted duck meat with ginger and sesame oil was so fragrant that Qiu Hu swallowed his saliva subconsciously, "Your family has a small town in Sitong Town. It’s a very big village, and there are only about ten people in it in the evening.”
Many of the long-term and short-term workers hired by the farm are locals in the town. After work, they go home to eat. There are only a few gatekeepers left in the farm.
"My father still finds time to go to the country farm in his busy schedule?" He Lingchuan scratched his head and sipped a fried escargot.
When He Chunhua came home last night, he told Mrs. Ying that he had been staying in the military camp for the past few days and could not walk even half a step.
Lie to everyone next to you.
As the head of the family and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, He Chunhua should be as busy as he should be. But why did he go all the way to Zhuangzi in the countryside?
"I sneaked in to take a look. General He went to sit in the big house first. Butler Wu walked straight to the back and entered the kitchen. The kitchen is quite large and should be a place to cook a big pot of rice for hundreds of people." Qiu Hu paused and said "Butler Wu went out and gave some orders, and someone led a cow, a sheep, and a pig into the kitchen."
He Lingchuan couldn't help but interrupt: "Alive?"
"They are all alive and can leave on their own." Qiu Hu recalled, "Then Butler Wu sent them to work. After everyone else had left, Butler Wu invited General He to go to the kitchen and closed the door tightly. I also blocked the gaps in the doors and windows with pieces of paper, and I went outside to guard them."
"There may have been a barrier placed in the house, because the grunting of the fat pig suddenly stopped." He continued, "I didn't step forward because I had a sudden whim at that time. It seemed that there was something dangerous in the kitchen and I didn't want to get close. It’s better, so instead hold your breath and calm down your mind.”
He Lingchuan nodded: "Well done."
Qiu Hu has a demon spirit around him, and he himself has a spiritual sense like a beast. He said the house was dangerous, so there was probably something terrible there.
"About two-quarters of an hour later, the kitchen door opened again, and puffs of gray smoke came out. The smoky smell was very strong, as if it was on fire. If there was no one nearby, there would probably be a long-term worker carrying it. Buckets to put out the fire.”
"General He coughed a few times when he came out, and asked Butler Wu to open the window. I took the opportunity to take a look, and there was nothing in the kitchen."
"Where are the pigs, cows and sheep?" Gone?
"No more." Qiu Hu continued, "General He said a few words to Butler Wu before he walked through the village and got on the carriage. The first sentence was: 'I'll take care of you in the back of the house.' Butler Wu agreed. Then he said that Shan Youjun would also like to accompany you on the expedition."
"General He immediately said, 'Let him stay and accompany Chuan'er. He was originally Chuan'er's subordinate.' Then he sneered twice and said that military achievements are hard to come by and everyone wants to fight for them."
He Lingchuan was silent.
In the current Kite Kingdom, the best and fastest way to achieve success is to earn military merit through war.
As long as you can win, the upgrade speed will be like a rocket.
But if you want to do this, you have to follow the right person. For example, if you follow General Chang Ning and go south to put down the rebellion, you have a good chance of winning. No wonder Shan Youjun is tempted, he has a family and a career, so of course he wants to have a good future.
"Then General He boarded the carriage and returned to the military camp. I didn't go in and turned around to follow Butler Wu. But Butler Wu just climbed into another carriage and quickly returned to He's Mansion."
He Lingchuan nodded, feeling satisfied.
The order he issued was to keep an eye on He Chunhua, but Qiu Hu did not follow it rigidly.
This guy has a very lively mind.
He thought for a while and asked Qiu Hu: "In your opinion, what is my father doing in the house?"
Are you asking for his opinion? Qiu Hu hesitated before saying, "I dare not say anything without proof."
They are all smart people and they understand it as soon as they hear it.
He Lingchuan hummed.
Why was the He family almost wiped out? In addition, He Chunhua was very cautious, so of course he would not let others catch him.
Even if Qiu Hu suspected that he was paying the gods, he had no proof, so he couldn't say anything.
Is it considered evidence to put a few live animals into the kitchen and then close the door?
The kitchen was a place where both living and dead meat used to come.
Does closing the door and burning incense count as evidence? Don't be ridiculous, there are so many old ladies in the capital doing this.
Why did the living animals disappear? It's none of your business, maybe it was put into He Chunhua's storage ring.
Of course, for He Lingchuan, since he knew that the mark of Nai Luotian was planted in his mind, he suspected that He Chunhua was trying to reward the gods.
He doesn't try the case, so whether the evidence is conclusive or not is not that important to him.
What Qiu Hu saw the night before could basically confirm his inference.
The question is, when did He Chunhua start paying homage to Nai Luotian?
The He family was almost beheaded. Does this have anything to do with it?
"Okay, I understand. You go ahead and eat."
After the business was done and the young master gave his orders, Qiu Hu took action, grabbed the roasted duck with ginger and sesame oil that he had coveted for a long time, and tore it open.
"Young Master, what other tasks do you have?"
"It's over for now." He Lingchuan took a sip of wine and said, "Then it's my own business."
…
It was late at night, and Butler Wu dragged his tired body back to his residence.
He also lived in the He Mansion, with a single door and a small courtyard, less than ten feet west of the He family's courtyard, closer to their parents than the He family brothers.
More than ten years ago, He Chunhua cleared housekeeper Wu's grievances, and the latter served him wholeheartedly. Everyone in the house knows that Butler Wu is Mr. He's most trusted subordinate; some even have to ask Butler Wu to help make arrangements if they want to see Mr. He.
This also means that Butler Wu is the first-class busy person in the house.
There are only four masters, but there are endless things to take care of in the house. Before he returned to the hospital tonight, he also dealt with two servants who were fighting.
When he came back, the mother-in-law had already boiled the wine and prepared the dishes.
Butler Wu's favorite thing is to dip radish in Dunyu's spicy sauce, then eat two cups of old wine and sip a few peanuts, which relieves half of the fatigue from his body.
The mother-in-law asked: "We have money now, why do you still eat these?"
From Xiazhou to Yuandu, He Chunhua gave Butler Wu a salary increase, which was a reward for his persistence and hard work.
