After I captured the wrong male lead, I broke off the engagement and married the villain

After returning, Nangong Yuan called Tao Zhu back.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

She was also speechless when she saw the assassination today.

After thinking about it, he felt that his young lady would be in great trouble if she stayed with Xiao Heyun.

I wanted to persuade her to leave quickly, but I thought the lady might not agree, so I didn't say anything.

"Come out with me tomorrow."

"Are you going to investigate the case?"

Nangong Yuan nodded: "Yes, I always feel that...something is not right."

"Yes, it's just a watch. It's strange that the young lady is chasing after him so closely."

Hearing this, she paused, and something flashed through her mind.

But it was too fast.

She rubbed the water cup unconsciously and said, "Yes, my cousin said that the goods were brought here by the caravan, so... I just need to find out which company in Qingzhou sent the goods to Hongzhou."

Thinking of this, she stood up suddenly, walked a few steps left and right, and then said, "Tao Zhu, go and tell Li Jin for me."

"Okay, I'll go now."

The little girl turned and ran away, without noticing the terrifying light in her mistress's eyes.

"Why didn't I think of this? That stuff doesn't look like an ordinary thing, which means it's only circulated internally. Shen Lian bought it, but Qingzhou is so far away that he wouldn't notice anything unusual."

Moreover, if this batch of goods does not belong to the person behind the scenes, then it must be among this group of wealthy businessmen.

For something this important, no one would risk letting someone else get it except yourself or someone you trust and who is absolutely sure of its safety.

When she thought about it, she felt a little excited.

All the way from Hongzhou, things finally showed some signs of progress.

She couldn't see the twists and turns behind it before.

But the trip to Qingzhou made her feel clear-headed for a rare time.

"Miss, Miss, I've got your message. Li Jin said he'll check it out right now. I'm sure there will be news soon."

Nangong Yuan nodded, unable to conceal her happiness.

"But young lady, you should rest."

It’s already very late at night and I have to go to work tomorrow.

She nodded, washed up and went to rest.

Shortly after dawn, the secret guard handed over what he had found to Nangong Yuan.

"These are all goods bound for Hongzhou. Take a look."

Nangong Yuan said: "Exclude those who have no strength, little money, and no reputation in the local area."

“That leaves only three.”

The secret guard took out the list and placed it in front of her.

"Shuyuan Company, Li Family, Run Family."

"That's about it. These three are not only the richest businessmen in Qingzhou, but they also have extensive business in places like Wucheng and Hongzhou."

Nangong Yuan nodded; "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"Don't be polite, sir. It's all part of my job."

This list was also sent to Xiao Heyun at the same time.

"Your Highness, that's about it. Young Master Nan suspects it's someone from these three families."

Xiao Heyun looked down and thought: "It's not impossible, but I still need evidence."

"Yes, my subordinate will do it now."

But Xiao Heyun thought about it and said, "I still want to go there in person."

At this moment, whether Qingzhou's business can continue for a long time is related, so he cannot be careless.

Moreover, Qingzhou is of great importance and no mistakes can be made. Otherwise, if the news gets to the capital, he will be unable to defend himself.

·······

Nangong Yuan set off immediately after receiving the news.

Time waits for no one, so I didn’t tell Xiao Heyun.

"Miss, the Li family is the largest tea merchant in the area, and their home is in the west."

After finding out, the two of them couldn't wait to go there.

"What does the young master want?"

Nangong Yuan said, "I want to do a big business with your boss. Ask him to come see me."

"Sir, you are joking. Our master doesn't see outsiders at all. Why don't you just talk to us here?"

But Nangong Yuan smiled slightly: "It has something to do with the tea merchants in Hongzhou. Are you sure you won't come?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Please sit down, please sit down. I am blind and don't know the master. I will go and invite him right away."

The other party left in a hurry, and Nangong Yuan sat there and drank a sip of tea.

She didn't sleep well at night, but fortunately it didn't affect her.

"Young Master, I heard that you want to do a business with me?"

Nangong Yuan smiled upon seeing this; "Of course."

She took the token Shen Lian gave her and said, "Hongzhou is remote and tea has always been in short supply, so I want to cooperate with you."

The man's expression also changed: "Young Master, please take a seat. This matter needs to be discussed in detail."

Nangong Yuan was not polite. She sat down and said, "Our Shen family is a little famous in the local area. If we can cooperate with you, I guarantee that we can open up the northwest trade route."

She used her tricks to make people happy, which made the other person laugh.

The two talked for a while before Nangong Yuan changed the subject: "My Shen Family Business also has a local branch. You can come to me directly when the time comes."

The Li family's steward nodded repeatedly.

At the same time, Nangong Yuan took out the watch and took a look at it, then said, "Oh, I almost forgot that I have other things to do."

The man looked at the watch in her hand and said, "This thing is quite exquisite."

"Yes, it was given to me by someone. I like it too."

The man looked very calm, with almost no disturbance.

Seeing this, Nangong Yuan did not stay for long.

She asked someone to send a message to the Shen family business, asking them to act out a scene with her and cooperate with her.

Now it seems that the Li family may have nothing to do with them.

But you can't be so sure. You have to check everything before you know the result.

"Let's go to Run's house."

I was planning to go to the business, but when I passed by, I found that the security was not strict.

So Nangong Yuan thought about it and decided to climb the wall directly.

She doesn't mind doing things in a fussy way, and can do things stealthily so there won't be any conflict.

But as soon as he rushed in, he ran into a tall figure head-on.

"Hey."

Nangong Yuan took a few steps back, looking shocked.

"Chenlou? Why are you here?"

The man was wearing a mask and his expression could not be seen clearly.

"This is not the place to talk, let's go."

He reached out and grabbed Nangong Yuan's arm, jumped onto the rest of the roofs in two or three jumps, and stopped in a secluded place.

"I'm not saying anything, why haven't you heard from me for so long, but you came to Qingzhou instead?"

Chen Lou paused and said, "I was investigating something and happened to come here."

"Tsk, okay, but what are you doing at Run's?"

"I'm looking into something about unnumbered muskets."

Nangong Yuan opened her eyes wide: "Ah?"

"What, is there a problem?"

Nangong Yuan shook her head: "That's not the case, but have you also found out about the Run family?"

"Also?" Chen Lou asked, and then said, "Yes."

"It seems that we can fight side by side again this time. Tell me, what clues are there about the Run family?"

Nangong Yuan's attitude towards him was very casual, so casual that it was almost intimate.
