I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

"No, no, I've taken it with my heart, please take back the money."

"Grandpa, you must accept it"

After some refusals, Gu Ming finally adopted a compromise method: half of the charge.

If you really insist on not accepting it, the other party will definitely feel sorry, and may even bear a lot of psychological burden because of it.

After all, this can be called a great kindness.

It's the same for Gu Ming, if someone helps him a lot, he will find a way to repay him.

Chapter 62 Young master, please... [recommendation ticket]

After Xu Agui said goodbye and left, Gu Ming closed the door and opened the system interface with a thought.

At present, his piano, chess, calligraphy and painting four skills, piano, calligraphy, and painting have all been upgraded to level 2, only chess is still level 1.

What if it can be used someday?

So, he exchanged the newly released 20 points for a skill upgrade talisman, and raised his chess skills to level 2.

When they woke up the next day, Xu Agui and his wife came to express their thanks again, and invited Gu Ming to visit their home in the future.

"Hehe, okay, I will definitely come to visit if I have the chance!"

Gu Ming responded smoothly.

Afterwards, Shuangshuang said goodbye and left the inn.

In the evening of that day, Gu Ming arrived at Jinhua Mansion.

After entering the city, first find an inn to settle down.

Afterwards, I asked the clerk for a while, coincidentally, Yihong Courtyard is not far away, just cross two streets.

So, Gu Ming walked briskly, looking for Fang in a cool and unrestrained way.

"Yo, young master, please come inside."

As soon as I arrived at the door, I was welcomed into the courtyard by the enthusiastic old lady.

It seems that the scale of Yihong Courtyard is quite large, with two entrances, front and back.

The front yard is the main building, with two floors at one bend and one turn.

Below are halls and small halls, which are convenient for reception, or for guests to drink, listen to music, watch dances, etc.

Upstairs are girls' rooms or private rooms.

"May I ask your son's name?"

"The surname is Liu!"

Gu Ming didn't want to reveal his identity, so he flattered one at will.

"It turns out that Mr. Liu doesn't know if Mr. Liu knows any girls? If it's your first time here, I'm old enough."

No way, after the old lady finished speaking, Gu Ming waved his hand: "I'm here on a special trip to find Miss Feng'er today."

"Yo, my son has a real eye"

In fact, no matter what you say about Xiang'er, Li'er, and Fang'er, the result is the same, you are the best in the old lady's mouth.

"Okay, stop boasting, I want a private room, a jug of good wine, and some side dishes."

"Yes, sir, please follow me."

After coming upstairs, the old lady took Gu Ming to a private room, and said with a smile: "Young master, please wait a moment, I will go and call Feng'er here."

"Ok!"

As soon as the people left, Gu Ming subconsciously looked around the room.

The house is relatively large, and it is very elegantly furnished.There are carved tables and chairs in the middle, and some calligraphy and paintings hang on the wall.

On the other side, there are paper pens, piano, chess and other things.

In such a large-scale romantic venue, most of the girls have a little knowledge of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Because of this, it attracts many poets to drink and party here.

Of course, there are also many who belong to the arty generation.

After a while, a waiter came in with wine and dishes, and after setting them up, he bowed respectfully and then walked out.

After a while, a beautifully dressed woman walked in.

After hearing the movement, Gu Ming turned his head sideways, with a flash of surprise on his expression.

I thought that this Feng'er should be good-looking, otherwise Jia Zheng would not have attracted her often.

I never thought that the appearance can only be described as so-so, ordinary.

The only bright spot is that she is relatively plump, and at first glance she belongs to the kind that is easy to give birth to.

It can only be said to be green vegetables and radishes, each has its own preferences.

Maybe that's what Jia Zhengzheng likes.

"Feng'er from my family, I have seen the officials"

As soon as she entered the door, Feng'er bowed her waist and gave a blessing.

"Well, come and sit."

"Thank you, officer."

Feng'er saluted again, turned around and closed the door, and then walked to the table and poured two glasses of wine from the jug.

Then he sat down and asked with a smile: "I don't think I've seen any officials before, right?"

"Hehe, this is also my first time here, and it was introduced by a friend surnamed Jia."

From the very beginning, Gu Ming began to probe.

"Oh? Could it be Mr. Jia Zhengjing?"

"Haha, yes, he said Miss Feng'er"

Speaking of this, Gu Ming intentionally showed a meaningful look in his eyes.

Sure enough, Feng'er blushed and said angrily, "I hate it!"

In fact, Gu Ming didn't know what he was talking about.

But Feng Er obviously guessed something.

"Hahaha, come, have a few drinks with me."

Now that he has some clues, Gu Ming doesn't want to act too hastily, lest Feng'er ask questions.

Let's get half drunk and half awake first.

Ever since, one cup after another, and at the same time tell some jokes that made Feng'er laugh non-stop.

"By the way, there used to be a eunuch"

Feng'er waited for a while but didn't come down, and subconsciously asked: "What's next?"

"there is none left"

"Puff official, you are so bad, you are always funny"

The jug of wine was gone.

Bring another pot.

Seeing that Feng'er was almost drunk, Gu Ming just continued the previous topic, intentionally or unintentionally luring her to tell something about Jia Zhengjing.

These people in the rivers and lakes are treacherous and cunning on the surface, and they are never willing to reveal their secrets easily.

But in front of women, he is often like a pig, daring to say anything.

This is also the reason why Gu Ming came to find Feng'er in the first place.

Sure enough, it really worked.

At this time, Feng'er had already drunk too much, and she didn't have a trace of vigilance at all, she just talked a lot about her resentment.

"Young Master Jia is always lying to people. He used to say that he wanted to redeem people's lives, but later he said he didn't have enough money."

"What did you say a few days ago that you did something big and made a lot of money?"

"I just came here last night. I said I was temporarily staying at a friend's house in Qingfeng Lane."

As he was talking, he was so drunk that he fell asleep on the table.

Gu Ming was too lazy to wake her up, since he had already found out the basic situation anyway.

So, he walked out of the private room to check out, and asked a waiter about the location of Qingfeng Lane.

Even if you don't do it today, go to step on it first

Feng'er drank in a daze and didn't say the exact location.Besides, Jia Zhengjing only roughly said that it was at the east end of the alley.

As long as there is a general location, it will not be difficult for Gu Ming.

After all, with his skills, even the county government can sneak in in the middle of the night, let alone ordinary houses.

I searched one yard after another, and finally found the target in the seventh or eighth house.

In a room in the main courtyard, Jia Zhengjing and two other people were sitting and drinking together.

His facial features are easy to identify, and there is a long and slanting scar on his forehead.

Because the three of them were all martial arts practitioners, Gu Ming didn't dare to get too close for fear of being discovered by the other party, so he could only hide behind the tree in the courtyard and eavesdrop.

Faintly, it can be regarded as hearing a few words of dialogue.

It sounds like Jia Zhengjing probably didn't know that Wuchang had missed, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy drinking and making orders.

After listening for a while, the three of them were either making orders or talking about women.

Gu Ming listened lazily, and quietly returned to the inn.

I had nothing to do and didn't want to sleep, so I simply took out a pen and paper from my carry-on bag, took a daily task and started to copy.

How much can always earn some experience.

The next morning, Gu Ming went to visit Chen Zibai with the note Nie Hongshu gave him.

After the meeting, Gu Ming first talked about what he discovered last night.

Chen Zibai was a little surprised: "You just arrived yesterday evening, did you find the clue so quickly?"

"Hehe, it sounds like luck. That Jia Zhengjing has a good friend in Yihong Academy, and the students went there last night."

As soon as he said this, he noticed that Chen Zibai's eyes became strange.

"Master Chen, don't get me wrong. The students went there just to inquire about the news. They drank some wine and did nothing else."

Chen Zibai couldn't help laughing: "It's okay, people have been romantic since ancient times, as long as you don't disappoint Miss Nie's love for you."

Chapter 63 Behind the scenes and then the black hands...

After chatting for a few words, Gu Ming couldn't help but asked about Shen Butong.

"Master Chen, you should know if Wuchang's case is unsuccessful, right? Has he made any changes?"

Chen Zibai nodded: "He is now the promotion official of Jinhua Mansion, so he will naturally hear the news. As for whether there is any change, this official cannot say for sure."

"Then how should Jia Zhengjing deal with it? Do you want to control it first?"

Chen Zibai pondered for a moment, and replied: "Why don't I entrust someone to secretly detain him first, so as to prevent this guy from escaping."

Gu Ming was overjoyed, and immediately cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you, sir!"

"You don't need to say thank you, I and Mr. Nie are close friends, so I must help you with this little favor.

It's just that it's not easy to get through the application.

In the absence of evidence, this officer is not good at acting rashly.”

Gu Ming can understand this point.
