Liu Yong Pursues the Case 刘墉追案 Episode 20

The eldest sister said that the mansion south of the granary is a ghost house, so don't rent a house there. Naturally, Liu Yong and Qin Lang didn't believe it, so he asked Qin Lang to visit this so-called house at night. Master Zang learned of this and hurriedly asked people to transfer the official bank from that house. Jin Wan'er brought Qicai and Liu Xi'er to give the refugees porridge on the street. Qicai met Liu Qiang, an acquaintance, and went forward to talk. She accidentally saw Liu Qiang wearing her father's fingers on her fingers, and she was so surprised that she was absent-minded when she served porridge. Liu Qiang, as the general merchant of the Chamber of Commerce, brought food to Lerdo, which appeared to help the victims, but this coincidence at this point in time made Liu Yong and Qin Lang feel that something was wrong.

Liu Yong continued to let Qin Lang stare at the grain depot, and the shifting of defense occurred unchanged. Jin Wan'er brought Qicai back and asked her to tell Liu Yong what she had just said to her. Qi Cai said that Liu Qiang was the murderer of her family, and she recognized it through the fingers on Liu Qiang's hand. But only with this finger, Liu Qiang would not confess his guilt easily. Liu Yong told Qi Cai not to act rashly. He would find a way to solve the matter, and the wicked would eventually deserve it. Ever since Qi Cai saw Liu Qiang, she felt resentful in her heart. Liu Qiang was her enemy, but Qi Cai could not avenge her family. Qiu Mengnan comforted and enlightened her. Liu Yong urged Jin Wan'er to let Qi Cai take more rest recently, and Jin Wan'er also promised to talk to Qi Cai if he had time.

Qin Lang visited the so-called haunted house at night and saw a lot of official silver in the bag of relief food. He took the official bank back to Liu Yong and speculated that Linqing Prefecture was a transfer station for official bank. There are hundreds of taels in each sacks of relief grain, and there are at least a thousand sacks there. The amount of official silver is beyond imagination. Qin Lang proposed to report to the court. Liu Yong didn't agree. He wanted to check the direction of the silver flow by himself, and there must be a bigger conspiracy behind it. Li Erdo also learned that Liu Yong had known about the official bank. Brother Zhang told him that Lord Zang was already arranging for the transfer of official bank.

Xiang Wu told Liu Yong that there will be activities in the haunted house tonight and Liu Xier is also following Liu Qiang. Liu Qiang was sent by Lord Zang to hand over the official bank to Li Erdo, and Li Erdo seemed a little surprised. Liu Xier feels distressed by Qi Cai, and he has been staring at Liu Qiang. After Liu Yong found out, he scolded him, repeatedly stressing that he should never do such a dangerous thing again. On the night that Liu Qiang's people handed over the official bank in the haunted house, Qin Lang was staring outside to be found. Liu Qiang hurriedly told Li Erdo about the incident, and Li Erdo was worried that it would be exposed, so he had to let Liu Qiang hurry to transfer the official bank out of the city. After that, Li Erdo asked Yuan Changchun to transfer a batch of relief food for him. He said that this batch of relief food was taken to Jinan, which is not in the record.

Qin Lang reported the situation to Liu Yong and said that there were always two groups of people coming and going in and out of the inn where Liu Qiang lived. Liu Yong told Qin Lang to keep Ge Chun and Xiang Wu staring. Liu Qiang sent someone to meet with Qicai. Liu Xier refused for Qicai. Although Qicai said that he would not meet with Liu Qiang. But she found Jin Wan'er and asked her to leave for a while, saying that she was going back to Dongchang Mansion to pay homage to her parents. Liu Xier returned after buying the cakes, but the colorful people had disappeared. He asked Jin Wan'er and learned that Qi Cai said that she would go back to worship her parents and left here.

Liu Xier was worried about her reckless revenge, and ran out looking for Qicai, and then followed her. Qi Cai appeared behind him and took him to the tavern to drink. Liu Xier knew she wanted to get herself drunk, so she didn't drink it. While Liu Xier persuaded her not to take revenge, while Qi Cai was not paying attention, he secretly replaced the poison in Qi Cai's baggage.
