Chapter 131 Refugees
Chang Qing walked across to Meiniang calmly, there was a table between them, Chang Qing looked at the cup of tea on the table, narrowed his eyes, but didn't intend to pick up the cup and drink tea .

Seeing this, Mei Niang smiled sweetly and said, "What's the matter, big brother catcher? But the tea poured by the slave's house is not to your liking?"

Chang Qingyi didn't answer Meiniang's question, instead, after walking around for a while, he returned to Meiniang, clasped his hands and asked, "Has Meiniang ever left this room?"

"I have been sitting in the room with this little catcher all this time, and never left half a step. Is the big catcher suspicious of my brother again?" Mei Niang covered her face and wept again.

Chang Qingyi looked at Xiaoliu when he heard the words, and after seeing Xiaoliu nodded, Chang Qingyi was relieved and said, "I'm sorry, Meiniang. Just take it as my fault for you! I'm just doing business, I also hope Mei Niang doesn't mind!"

Meiniang Sipa's eyes froze behind her, and then she put down the silk handkerchief to cover her face, revealing her cheeks with two tear stains, and replied calmly: "The official is right, the servant's family is just a woman, let the official decide! "

No matter how much Chang Qingyi didn't understand women, he could tell that he had offended the proprietress to death, but he could only pretend that he didn't know, and replied: "Young lady is so reasonable, then I will offend you!"

After that, Chang Qingyi picked up Mei Niang with one hand, and quickly picked up the stool she was sitting on with the other hand, and inspected it.

"Yeah..." Meiniang was also frightened by Chang Qingyi's sudden move, she hid in Chang Qingyi's arms in a panic and screamed.

As soon as Chang Qing lifted the stool and glanced at it, he found nothing, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but before he put down the stool, there was a whimper in his arms.

As soon as Chang Qing followed the sound, he immediately let go of his hand in fright, and at the same time took a step back, keeping a distance from Meiniang who was standing there, and apologized awkwardly: "I'm sorry, Meiniang!"

Meiniang didn't make things difficult for Chang Qingyi any more, but after wiping her eyes lightly, she asked calmly, "Can you find anything suspicious?"

"Uh... Don't worry, Mei Niang, there is nothing suspicious now! Let's let the shopkeeper come and identify him first!" Chang Qing wanted to quickly change the subject, so he hurriedly pulled the fat shopkeeper over.

At first, the fat shopkeeper only thought that Chang Qingyi was discussing things with the proprietress of Xiaoxiangyuan, but the more he looked at it later, the more he felt that the two had an improper relationship, and they were standing aside and having fun, so Chang Qingyi came over In front of the dead assassin.

"Shopkeeper, come and see if this person has worked in your shop?" Chang Qingyi didn't want to face Meiniang again, so he warmly greeted the fat shopkeeper.

When the fat shopkeeper passed by Meiniang, he gave her an embarrassed look, but at this time, Meiniang deliberately pretended not to see the fat shopkeeper, and had no intention of talking to her.

When the fat shopkeeper stood in front of the bed where the assassin was, the fat shopkeeper was taken aback by the assassin's tragic death, but he recognized the assassin at a glance, and trembled in horror: "This... this is not Wang Guangzhi. What? How...how did he die?"

As soon as Chang Qing heard the shopkeeper's words, he immediately became interested, and immediately asked seriously: "Wang Guangzhi? Who is he? What does he do at your place? Where did he come from? Did he still work at your place before?"

After hearing Chang Qingyi's words, the fat shopkeeper didn't know where to start. He opened his mouth and looked at Chang Qingyi dully for a while, but Chang Qingyi was so anxious that he couldn't help shouting at him: " Tell me quickly! Why are you looking at me?"

The fat shopkeeper just woke up from his dazed state, and quickly said: "Master, this man is indeed a clerk in the small shop, but unfortunately I found out that his hands and feet were not clean a few days ago, so I kicked him out ! As for other things, the villain really doesn't know!"

When Chang Qing heard the words, he replied disappointedly: "Is that all? What a waste of time! Then how did he come to work in your shop?"

The fat shopkeeper bowed his head shyly, and said in a low voice: "The villain remembers that he came to Shengjing City last year with some other refugees. After it was over, Wang Guangzhi cried and asked the villain if he could work in the store, but the villain saw him as pitiful, so he softened and took him in for a while!"

"So that's it! Where did the refugees who came with him go?" Chang Qingyi asked after rubbing his chin for a while after thinking.

"Among the group of refugees at that time, he was the only one who stayed in the villain's shop, and the rest left after eating the food the villain gave. The villain guessed that they all went to other shops to beg for life!" The fat shopkeeper narrowed his eyes. After recalling with closed eyes, he replied respectfully.

Chang Qing's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words. It seems that this group of people has sneaked into various shops, large and small, in Shengjing City. Maybe some of the officials' servants have traces of them. , this will be difficult.

Chang Qingyi frowned and began to think, but the waiter, who had been standing next to the policeman Xiaoliu, quietly moved to the side of the fat shopkeeper. This position was just right for him to see the appearance of the assassin.

"Hey!" Amin, the waiter in the shop, glanced at it, and screamed in fright at the miserable appearance. He was about to take a step to escape from the fat shopkeeper, but he was held down by the arrester Xiaoliu who had been watching him all the time.

"You kid, what are you running around! Are you guilty of being a thief? Or do you have other schemes?" Xiao Liu clasped the shoulder of the waiter Amin with one hand, and pressed him against the bed frame with his backhand, still shouting viciously.

The waiter in the shop, Amin, didn't dare to struggle hard, but he shook his body symbolically, turned his head and said aggrievedly: "My lord, this villain just wanted to see how this kid Guangzhi died. In the end, his death looks too good." It's ugly, the villain is about to spit out his breakfast? Besides, there are officials and your people guarding the courtyard, how dare the villain have the thought of running away?"

"Oh, it means that you dare to run without our people guarding you?! As soon as I saw you, kid, I knew something was wrong with you. I've caught you now!" Xiao Liu couldn't care less Said to Amin forgivingly.

A Ming opened his eyes wide, startled by Xiao Liu's ability to turn black and white, and cried out to Chang Qingyi in a tearful tone: "Guan Gong, you brought me here, so you can't leave me alone, this one!" Brother, you made it clear, you just don’t like me! Help me, sir!”

"Um... Guanye, A Ming is the son of an old friend from before the villain. His background is innocent, and he can be regarded as hardworking and capable in the villain's shop. Except for being glib sometimes, he usually stays in the villain's shop. I have never run around, and I will never have anything to do with this matter!"
