Chapter 393 Clues
Only that guest kept asking what ingredients were used in the skewers at the palace banquet, which was obviously different from other guests.
It would only be enough to ask once or twice, but that person seemed to be very persistent in hearing the answer from his mouth.
As if there is some conspiracy.
Although the shopkeeper didn't know the saint's plan, he was keenly aware of the abnormality of the guest downstairs.
"Ask the store clerk to keep an eye on that person." Li Mumu said.
The guest had just come in and the food hadn't been served yet.
If he left now, it would arouse suspicion.
Li Mumu guessed that the other party would not leave so soon, so she said to the shopkeeper: "Send someone to call the shopkeeper of the errand shop next to you."
"Yes." The shopkeeper responded and left.
Li Mumu said to Gu Mian, "Gu Mian, you and the coachman go back to Gu's house, fetch Xiuxiu, and ask her to bring the pen and ink and paper for painting."
"Yes." Gu Mian took the portrait and letter and hurried to get it done.
Because people can see us in the streets from morning to night every day, and the most eye-catching thing is the most eye-catching thing.
It's dinner time now, and a barbecue grill has been set up inside.
Gu Xiuxiu asked the shopkeeper for paper and pen, wrote down what she had discovered, put the letter into an envelope, sealed it with wax oil, and handed it to Gu Mian, who was still there, "He gave the portrait to the person outside the shop. Guys, let’s pay attention to that person’s final destination. He sent that letter to the small camp in the east suburbs to General Gu.”
Liu Lu recalled it carefully, and the scene when he just entered came to mind.
Gu Xiuxiu nodded and said: "Just a rough impression is enough. Just tell him the important characteristics of this person and he will draw a picture."
Then he hurriedly took the letter to the small camp on the outskirts of Beijing.
"The restaurant run by Mrs. Gu really pays attention to fewer people." The prince said, "In the palace alone with the saint, few people pay attention to anything."
Gao Fuzhen first drew a rough outline, drew some front lines based on her own memory, and then added based on Gao Fuzhen's description.
The city is full of errand boys. As long as no one sees me, just write me down.
"This minister is respectful and obeys his orders." Li Mumu said.
"Also, when you came out, the kitchen had just started cooking." Gao Fuzhen said.
"Eighth Aunt." Gu Shangqing called after retreating and closing the door.
Liu Lu, the shopkeeper of the errand shop next door, arrived first. Li Mumu said, "When you came in, did any of the customers outside notice you?"
Liu Lu also knew.
"I took a quick glance, but didn't dare to take a closer look, for fear of being seen by the other party." Gu Shangqing said.
After the last drawing was finished, Gu Xiuxiu nodded, "It's not even remotely similar enough for people to recognize it."
"Broken." Gu Shangqing broke the drawing paper.
It's packed every day, so many people want to try it even if they queue up inside.
"Yes." Gu Mian responded.
Liu Lu took the paperweight from his arms and pressed it down, then finished polishing Gu Shangqing's ink.
But Gao Fu knew that this guest had bad intentions, so he told Gao Fuzhen.
There are still some things that can make Li Mumu cooperate.
In your daily delivery, even in remote alleys, there are no errand boys.
"General Gu's magnanimity alone is unparalleled by mine. Without that magnanimity, our achievements today would be limitless," the prince said.
"My wife dared to send someone directly to the East Palace because she was worried about being discovered." Li Mumu said, "That person is not trustworthy. My wife is sending the errand boy to check where I am. Once found, I will report to you." "In the Ming Palace."
He was a man of good ability, so he became the shopkeeper.
Gu Shangqing cautiously left the room and closed the door before speaking.
"I am willing to rely on my wife to support me." Li Mumu said with a smile, "After all, from the moment I got married, I have been slower to advance than my wife."
"Downstairs, on the left side of the entrance, against the wall, there is the third table from the entrance. Sitting there is a woman wearing a blue cloth coat and a gray scarf. She looks to be about eighty years old, with two mustaches under her lips. "She's a woman." Gu Xiuxiu said, "He was confused for a while, but don't let him be discovered. You will give him a portrait. He asked the guys to identify me and follow me to find out where I live and what my name is." Name. Don’t let anyone discover it.”
Then, he shook his head and said: "Not really."
Gu Mian first took the portrait back to the errand shop and asked everyone to look at it. Then he had the portrait sent to various errand shops in the capital so that everyone could recognize him.
"Yes." Gu Mian also hurried over.
The prince nodded and received the letter from Li Mumu and came to see me again. At this moment, this person should not have left the Gu family to eat.
"General Gu, do you want to rush back to the military camp?" the prince said, "If it's time to wait, you might as well have a meal in the East Palace before leaving. There are no details yet, so I can discuss it with General Gu."
"I just happened to meet him today." Li Mumu said, "In those days, Chen's wife was paying attention to the restaurant every day, thinking that she might encounter someone suspicious."
The Gu family also knew the saint's plan.
"Xiuxiu, are you ready for dinner?" Gu Xiuxiu asked.
"That's bad!" Gu Shangqing hated being with Gu Xiuxiu, "What's wrong, you want to eat skewers too."
That way, if you follow the other party, it will be easy for the other party to realize that you are being followed.
After finding out the other party's whereabouts, the prince can send someone to investigate whether the person is not suspicious.
"When it comes to that, we will definitely be rewarded based on merit." The prince said with a wicked smile, "I'm afraid Mrs. Gu will be sealed slower than him."
After a while, Gao Fuzhen arrived.
The errand shop workers are the most noticeable group of people as they run around in the side streets all day long.
"If a man can become an official in the court, the wife's official position will be lower than that of the minister." Gao Fuzhen said.
Even, it requires special tracking.
Moreover, there are only a few clerks in the errand shop, so one clerk must always follow you, but the same clerk cannot rotate.
Because the palace's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet included the Gu family's skewers, before the news spread, the Gu family's business of feasting and relaxing was even worse.
On the way, Liu Lu told Gu Shangqing a brief summary of the situation.
"Did he just see the guest upstairs?" Gu Xiuxiu said.
Now it's too late for the prince to send someone to follow him.
Because my family lived in Beijing, I joined an errand shop in Beijing.
"Your Majesty, that's ridiculous." Li Mumu said quickly.
During those days, the small camp in the eastern suburbs was training troops, and Li Mumu went home every day just like he did in the following days.
The shopkeeper also returned from the army.
"It's strange that Mrs. Gu risked her own safety to go to the border to rescue General Gu." The prince said, "If General Gu supports his wife like that, he also cares that his wife's achievements are lower than his own. At least I have seen her before."
"How about eating with you there?" Gu Xiuxiu asked.
Before Li Mumu received the letter, he went to see the prince in person and told the story.
