After Xiao Fubao’s Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital

Chapter 425 Jingui Lane

 Gu Mingda has experienced this kind of thing several times since entering the capital.

 But like every time in the past, no one can stop a person who wants to die no matter what others do.

Liu Ershi vomited blood from his mouth. Even if he found the doctor as quickly as possible, he could only watch as the man died.

"That's it, let's look for any other clues." The matter had already happened, and Gu Mingda didn't dwell too much on it.

Niu Niu saw someone die in front of her. The little girl didn't even scream, but asked her mother: "Mom, did this uncle die for his family?"

Zhang Yunniang nodded. Although everyone was on opposite sides and enemies of each other, their willingness to sacrifice themselves and not wanting to implicate their families was really touching.

Niuniu asked: "When do bad people also have good hearts?"

 Zhang Yunniang said: "Bad people don't have good hearts, but they also have weaknesses, and they also have people they care about."

 The little girl seems to understand but not quite.

Although the leader Liu Ershi died, there were other thieves alive. The two who escaped earlier were also hunted down. However, Gu Mingda faced the same situation as before. These thieves were not leaders and had little information. Even with rigorous interrogation, it would be difficult to find more clues from them.

“Your Excellency was able to land safely from your horse, which shows that you are a person blessed by God.” Li Captou said complimentary words.

Gu Mingda nodded casually. He knew in his heart that it was not that he was blessed by God, but that he had a daughter with a special constitution. Others always thought that he was lucky, but Gu Mingda couldn't help but think that maybe it was because of something. His daughter's special physique helped him.

"I didn't secretly make a wish in my heart. I am very obedient. If I had made a wish, I would definitely go to bed now!" Niuniu emphasized this to her father again and again.

Gu Mingda still felt uneasy, and asked Zhang Yunniang to take a look at the red fish birthmark on her daughter's wrist.

 After confirming that Xiaoyu's birthmark was still bright red, he believed that his daughter had not used her special abilities indiscriminately.

“The darker the birthmark is, the happier I am and it feels like I don’t have any worries at all,” Niu Niu said.

When Gu Mingda heard this, his heart moved. Could it be that the deeper his daughter's birthmark is, the better her daughter's luck will be? Will it also bless the people around you?

As soon as he thought of this, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and the testimonies from the previous interrogation of the thieves became extremely clear in his mind.

“He’s in Jingui Lane!” Gu Mingda said.

 He felt as if the fog in his mind was suddenly lifted away by a hand, and his mind was extremely clear.

 “Jingui Alley? The rice cake at the entrance of the alley is really delicious!” Niu Niu said.

Before Niu Niu entered the palace, Gu Mingda was busy preparing for the scientific examination for a while, while Shen Changfeng had nothing to do, so he took her to wander around the streets and alleys of the capital. Niu Niu was always able to accurately find delicious food, so she found a lot Delicious food hidden deep in the alley.

The reason why Gu Mingda remembered Jin Guixiang was because when a certain thief was being interrogated, he mentioned that Liu Ershi seemed to often run to the south of the city and always had the scent of osmanthus on his body. He also once heard him chatting about helping others at home. Regarding his wife picking sweet-scented osmanthus, she complained that her family was not short of money, but she followed the example of neighbors pickling sweet-scented osmanthus and selling it for money.

Jingui Alley is just like its name. Every household in the entire alley has planted osmanthus trees. For the common people, in order to save money, they will pay attention to every detail, so the osmanthus flowers on the osmanthus trees are not something they can appreciate. It is something that can be exchanged for money to subsidize the family.

There are definitely not only people in Jingui Lane who have osmanthus trees growing in their homes in the capital, but most of them are only in Jingui Lane where every household in the entire alley has osmanthus trees.

Gu Mingda even had a hunch at this time that Liu Ershi's family must live here. Almost as soon as he thought of this, he took his wife and children back to the capital.

At this time, it was almost white, and Gu Mingda interrogated him directly all night, while the children slept next to Zhang Yunniang for a while.

Because this was such an eventful time, Gu Mingda did not dare to let his two sons return to the academy or Dr. Yan's residence, but took them directly back to the capital.

Just as the carriage was walking on the road, it suddenly saw a pair of ceremonial guards leaving the city far away.

"His Majesty is leaving the city. He originally planned to go hunting in the paddock today." Gu Mingda said.

He suddenly remembered that his daughter was going with him. Niu Niu rubbed her eyes when she heard the voice and sat up from Zhang Yunniang's arms.

"I went out hunting, and I promised to take me with me... Why did I miss the appointment..." Niu Niu's face was full of guilt.

Gu Mingda said: "Don't worry, daddy will go up and explain to you and see if he can let you follow."

Yesterday the emperor agreed to take Niu Niu with him. Originally, the Queen Mother wanted to keep the little girl in the palace for one night, but Niu Niu was thinking about her family and refused to agree, so she had to send someone out to pick her up early in the morning.

It was only when the person who picked him up arrived at Gu's house this morning that he learned that something big had happened to the Gu family. The emperor was without Niu Niu to accompany him, and he felt empty in his heart.

 When the emperor traveled, he naturally sent people to clear the place along the road in advance.

 The people clearing the place also saw the Gu family's carriage at this time.

"Who is it? The emperor is traveling, please get out of the way!" shouted the guards who were clearing the place.

Gu Mingda handed over a token, explained the cause and effect, and said: "Please tell Mr. Qian to report something."

This token belongs to Niuniu and was given to her by the Queen Mother to make it easier for the little girl to enter and leave the palace.

Although the guard's eyes were higher than his head, he did not dare to delay when he saw this unusual token.

Not long after, Qian Rongsheng hurried over with a whisk in his hand. After giving Gu Mingda a gift, he said to Niuniu: "Niuniu, hurry up and see His Majesty with the Za family. He even sent someone to look for him yesterday. There are some children's bows and arrows ready for you to use. Your Majesty will be disappointed if you can't see you in the morning!"

After getting off the carriage, Niu Niu turned around, waved to her parents and brothers, and happily ran to the emperor's carriage.

"You went to Baiyun Town overnight and didn't change your clothes all night long." The emperor said casually.

Niu Niu didn’t have any thoughts about being disrespectful to the emperor, but said: "I helped a lot yesterday! It was all thanks to my nose that I was able to find my two brothers!"

When the emperor heard this, he immediately became interested and asked about what happened last night. He thought it was just the little girl bragging, but he didn't expect that the whole night was really ups and downs.

After listening to the story, the emperor sighed casually: "Thanks for bringing you there. If it hadn't been like this, your father and brothers would have been in trouble."

When he turned around, he saw that the little girl had fallen down, sleeping very soundly, and even snoring.
