Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 143
[Chapter 108 [Three shifts in one] This method is…]
Just thinking about it, he heard Wu Qi say, “What situation are they in? What situation am I in?”
Lin Chengyou was pulled back to his mind by these words, Teng Yuyi would not be like this for no reason. I asked again, so I suppressed the worries and doubts in my heart and turned my attention back to the front.
“Deng Weili was raised in the palm of the hands of the Deng family and the Duke of Wei’s mansion. He has been very precious since he was a child.” Wu Qi eloquently said, “Teng Yuyi’s grandfather is a strong fan in the world, and he has always done whatever he wants. Du Tinglan is the family member. The eldest daughter, you don’t have to face the eccentric grandparents and brother-in-law all day long like me. They can do whatever they want at home, say whatever they want, and even if they don’t choose the crown princess, the family will strive for the best for them. Good marriage. They have countless ways to escape, what about me? If I don’t fight for myself, no one will decide for me!”
Wu Yuanluo gritted his teeth: “So you even counted my brother into it? Lishan Shangwei It was obviously your idea, but afterward you said that I forced you to do it.”
Wu Qi smiled mockingly: “What’s wrong? The imperial court may have chosen the future crown princess among Jiedushi’s daughters. , Based on Mrs. Teng’s talent and appearance, it is very likely that she will be selected. If my brother can be attracted to Mrs. Teng’s favor, her selection may be in vain. If I kick out a strong competitor in advance, I will not be happy. Don’t do it, besides, I have never hurt anyone, brother, don’t you like Teng too–”
“Tell me about the night of the Buddha Bathing Festival.” Lin Chengyou suddenly interrupted her, “Before you come, I will ask you Brother confirmed, he was going to personally send your sisters to Qinglong Temple that night, but you tricked him.”
Wu Qi looked at Lin Chengyou.
Lin Chengyou looked extremely cold: “I originally made an appointment with your classmates to meet at Qinglong Temple at You Shichu, but you told him that it was You Shizhong. When your brother arrived at Qinglong Temple, you had already coaxed you and your sister to come forward and lure Lady Deng to the bridge. Going up, and then using some method to keep your sister from returning to Jushuangzhai, this kind of trick is not difficult to guess, but it is nothing but the use of the word ‘trust’. I am only curious about the jewelry and affection that were delivered to Mrs. Deng that night. Where did the letter come from? The jewelry is an expensive moon-shaped bead ring, and my handwriting is forged on the love letter. You arranged all this to make people misunderstand that I have an affair with Mrs. Deng. Does Wang Li know someone? These court officials, otherwise why can they imitate my handwriting?”
“I don’t know how she did it.” Wu Qi said coldly, “Every time she only told me part of the plan and told me to take care of my side. As for the other side, I never let me inquire about it. For example, in today’s episode, I only learned last night that Mrs. Du’s poems were delivered to a jinshi named Lu Zhaoan. He will accompany him out of the city and ask me to think of a way to make sisters Peng wet the skirts when he appears.”
Lin Chengyou sneered: “You don’t know the whole plan, but you must know when they started. That night, the scapegoat named Huo Songlin When you used sorcery to take away your sister’s soul, you sat at the window of Jushuangzhai and joked with your classmates. You did this to remove your suspicions completely, but at that time, as long as you shouted aloud, you could immediately To stop this tragedy, you watch your elder sister being murdered, you are only one step away, and you have never moved a little bit of compassion?”
“Why should I be compassionate?” Wu Qi’s voice was sharp all of a sudden She got up, “That time in Lishan, she knew that the peasant woman was arranged by the queen to test us, and she returned by herself, did she remind me? She replaced me to run for the crown princess, and did she apologize to me afterwards? She has my sister in her heart, so she wouldn’t be so unfeeling—”
Wu Yuanluo snorted: “Auntie, she doesn’t even know that it was a trial, and the mother and father were also kept in the dark about this matter. Auntie Willing to return, as long as she has a kind-hearted nature! And if you have compassion for a peasant woman, why do you need others to remind you? You still don’t understand, you are selfish and selfish, and you have been like this since you were a child. ”
Wu Qi narrowed her eyes.
Wu Yuanluo looked directly at Wu Qi and said bitterly, “You keep saying that your mother and brother are biased, but you forgot what happened all these years? Okay, you can’t remember, I’ll help you remember.”
“It is said that you are pregnant in October, but you fell to the ground in seven months.” Wu Yuanluo’s tone was astringent, “My father and mother were afraid that they would not be able to support you, so I specially hired a warlock to tell your fortune for you. I was looking forward to hearing some auspicious words, warlock. But he said that you would bring disaster to the family in the future. Grandpa was so angry that he drove the warlock out of the house. He loves you no less than before. Holding it in the palm of your hand, the care and concern for the aunt is far less than that for you, until you were five years old with malaria, and all this slowly changed.”
Wu Qi did not move.
Wu Yuanluo was full of disappointment: “That time you were very sick. The first thing Grandpa did when he came back every day was to take care of you before the sick bed. Grandma and I were all day long because of you. The medical worker said that you should have compatriots. The blood of the sister’s arm was used as an introduction, and the aunt was only six years old, but she did it without saying a word, afraid that we would be tired, and she was also helping with the soup and medicine by the side. You have no sympathy for the eldest sister on the hospital bed, and because your grandfather and brother were busy taking care of your aunt, they ignored you and lost their temper in the room. From then on, grandpa knew that you were cold. Bo selfish child. You were born prematurely and frail, and since you were born, you have been favored by the whole family. Over time, you seem to have forgotten that your elder sister is also the daughter of the Wu family.”
“The heart is full of flesh.” Wu Yuan There was a dark tide in Luo’s eyes, “When I was a child, my brother was studying, and every time the twelfth lunar month was cold and the ground was freezing, my aunt was afraid that my brother would get frostbite while practicing calligraphy, so I would take the initiative to help my brother heat the stove next to him. My brother asked her to go back to the room, and she But he insists on being with you. What about you? Every time I do, I will complain that my brother is only focusing on studying and not playing with you. Then when my brother went up to the tree to pick a kite for you, he accidentally sprained his foot when he jumped down, and you said right? I lived with my brother, but it was my aunt who took care of my brother. You went back to your grandfather’s house in Yingzhou with your mother. When you came back, my aunt bought a lot of my brother’s favorite cakes. Before, my brother just said something casually, but my aunt silently remembered it in my heart. The sisters make shoes and socks for brother, and the ones made by the aunt will always fit, but you don’t even notice the length of brother’s feet. Said that my brother was partial to the aunt, and threw the shoes into the well in front of us.
“Brother shouldn’t take these little things to heart, but these are not one or two things, but the years of getting along with each other. These trivial things come to my heart bit by bit, and even the most careless person can realize it. The older I get, the more Brother A knows more clearly, Auntie is calm and open-minded, but you are very narrow-minded. In recent years, Brother A has felt too much concern from the older sister for his brother, and out of return, he will unconsciously feel partial to Auntie. Just like she remembers that Brother does not I like to eat peach blossom vinegar, I don’t like the smell of Tusu wine, I don’t eat fish soup, I don’t touch coriander. You don’t know all these things, but Auntie remembers them all in her heart. Then brother remembers that Auntie likes to eat flax, so why is it difficult? ?”
Wu Qi’s expression was still cold and hard, but her eyes trembled.
Wu Yuanluo laughed at himself: “You said that Brother A couldn’t get to Yuzhen Nuguan Guan in time to save you, but you never mentioned that Brother A was outside the city at the time. I rushed back to the city without stopping because I was in a hurry. , I almost fell off my horse on the way, but I was just a step late, and I was hated by you until now. I went to visit you in your room, but you shut my brother out of the door. My brother stood on the porch, facing the The feeling of that closed door will never be forgotten, the journey is too fast, the clothes on the body are already wet with sweat, and when the wind blows, it is instantly cold to the bones, but no matter how cold the body is, there is no cold heart.”
Wu Yuanluohou His hair changed, and he paused: “As for grandfather and mother, how your sisters are on weekdays, they will only know better than me, countless little things, accumulated over the years, from the care you gave in every way to the love for the aunt, everything is There is a reason. A while ago, the aunt was dismissed by the Zheng family, and the aunt was crying in the room all day long. My mother and I were afraid that she would find a shortcoming. Naturally, we were very concerned about her. All this fell into your eyes and became the whole family. I am partial to my aunt. You never thought that if you were the one who was dismissed from the family, Grandpa would have done everything for you!”
“You are talking nonsense!” Wu Qi’s lips trembled, and two lines of tears flowed out , “Grandpa won’t call the shots for me. Even if I die, you won’t feel bad. Even if you put your heart right a little bit, I won’t get to where I am today.”
“Am I talking nonsense?” Wu Yuanluo pulled the corner of his mouth, “You are in good health now, and it seems that you have forgotten how much your sick grandfather and mother did for you when you were young. Grandpa heard that there is a man in Xingyuan Mansion who is good at treating children’s chronic diseases. The witch doctor did not hesitate to travel hundreds of miles away to ask for a witch doctor, which delayed the examination of the Ministry of Personnel and served as a waiter in the Ministry of Personnel for ten consecutive years. A-niang personally made shoes and socks for you every year. When you were a child, you You are more afraid of cold than other children, so the soles of your shoes and socks are always a bit thicker and softer than others. You liked to wear red clothes since you were a child, and my mother bought a lot of red silk and red yarn for you – these things are still in the store. In the box in your room, do you want to say it was fabricated by your brother? You know how your aunt treats you. She never touches the things you like, and she likes the toys you like. Don’t either. It’s a pity that you only remember evil, not good!”
Wu Qi swayed, her tears became more and more turbulent, and she gritted her teeth and said bitterly: “You are talking nonsense…you are too hypocritical! What are these small favors and small favors? For your interests, you only see my sister. I have already chosen my husband-in-law for myself, but you ruined everything for my sister.”
Wu Yuanluo became more and more disappointed: “You should remember that the aunt asked you a while ago. Who is your sweetheart? You said you want to choose your own husband, but you don’t object to your family sending you to study at Xiangxiang Academy. We all suspect that you have a suitable husband, and that person should be a son of a certain clan. The aunt was dismissed from the family by the Zheng family, and the whole family was in grief, but as soon as you heard that Prince Cheng was celebrating his birthday, you went to Prince Cheng’s mansion with gifts without saying a word. My aunt and I were sure that your sweetheart was Prince Cheng, so after that, The aunt agreed to run for the crown princess election, while the elder brother tried to get you and Prince Cheng together on Mount Li, I thought it was a happy arrangement, but I didn’t expect you to hate the whole family.”
Wu Qi’s tears froze.
Wu Yuanluo closed his eyes: “Forget it, I said so much, I just want to know one thing, have you ever felt any regret in your heart after doing these things? Think about how auntie used to be, and then think about her now. Can you say ‘I’m sorry’ to her from the bottom of her heart?”
Wu Qi clenched her teeth, but her lips trembled.
Wu Yuanluo waited for a while with red eyes, but was finally disappointed, turned around, knelt upright in front of the emperor, then fell to the ground and bowed, saying: “My father is ill, and Jia Ci is busy taking care of the eldest sister, everything tonight is from Yuanluo. One person supports. The family of the Wu family is unfortunate, and the evildoers are here. For their own selfishness, they do things that harm the heavens and the law. The sky is full, and the crime is unforgivable. Yuanluo is both the eldest brother of the criminal and the relative of the victim. Since he learned the truth All the insides will be burnt, and it is difficult to feel remorse and remorse. Only the sage and the court will enforce the law impartially and seek justice for the victims. If there is any responsibility for the Wu family, the Wu family will never refuse.” Ye Feng
blew before the court. Wu Yuanluo’s words were resolute and painful. The saint was moved and sighed: “What happened to Aunt Wu is pitiful; Erniang Wu’s viciousness is really hard to forgive. You’er, you are in charge of investigating this case. Officer, what do you say.” The
audience all turned their attention to Lin Chengyou.
Lin Chengyou said bluntly: “‘The punishment is to be convicted, and the portrait is to be ashamed’. The most innocent victim in this case is Li Ying’er, the daughter of the common people. She is only eleven years old. Ben and Wu Erniang and others There was no injustice or enmity, and the murder was only because the villain wanted to pull a pretense. A while ago, Yan Sizhi went to Yining Square to investigate the case, and came back to say that Li Ying’er’s aunt was still crying day and night. The pain of the people is the pain of the emperor, and the nephew I urge the saints to take heavy responsibilities and punish them. The evidence of Wu Erniang, Wang Li, and Lu Zhaoan is clear, and they should be immediately transferred to the Dali Temple for a detailed trial. Only if the canonical punishment is clear, can we serve as an example.”
These words were sonorous and powerful.
Teng Yuyi’s clenched fists slowly loosened. With Lin Chengyou’s words, there is no need to worry about Wu Qi’s remission.
No matter how vicious Wu Er is, she is the biological daughter of the Wu family.
This is how she is willing.
With Wu Qi’s savage heart, it is impossible to feel any guilt, and listening to Wu Qi’s confession, it is clear that she has long regarded those who hinder her from becoming a crown princess as a thorn in her side.
She in the past life was just like Li Ying’er in this life, how innocent she died. Although the master of Jing Chen and the master behind the scenes are unforgivable, Wu Qi’s jealousy is the main cause of her death in her previous life.
Not only did she want Wu Qi to confess her guilt and obey the law, but she also wanted to find a way to make Wu Qi reveal all the clues she knew.
If she can successfully capture Shitai Jingchen’s master behind the scenes, she will be avenged.
She cast a grateful glance at Lin Chengyou, but unfortunately Lin Chengyou looked straight ahead and seemed to be unaware.
The sage nodded approvingly: “It’s a good sentence, ‘The pain of the people is the pain of the emperor’. Good boy, the court should uphold justice for the children, you just need to enforce the law impartially. Press it down, remember to guard closely to prevent traitors from killing people.” The
officers were about to tie Lu Zhaoan when Lu Zhaoan said broadly: “The saint is above, Lu just bought a few bowls of porridge in front of Wang’s stall. This means that Lu is involved with these gangsters, not only does Lu dare not admit it, but the public may not agree.”
Lin Chengyou snorted: “Don’t worry, I didn’t forget you.”
Then he took out two shields from his arms . After reading the letters by name and surname, he asked Lu Zhaoan, “Do you recognize these two letters?”
Lu Zhaoan’s expression changed suddenly.
“The two letters were written by you, Lu Zhaoan. One was written when you were in Yangzhou, and the date was the Qingming Festival the previous year. The other was written after you came to Chang’an, and the date was the end of February. Although the two letters are separated by In the past two years, there is a strange thing in common, that is, there are two identical oil spots on the letter. After my teacher’s inspection, it was confirmed that they were traces left by a kind of Gu worm saliva. Master, please tell me what this is. Gu.”
“Lovesickness Gu.” Qing Xuzi looked at Lu Zhaoan as if he was looking at a ditch of stinky water, “This worm can confuse people’s minds, and it is the most dirty work. Unexpectedly, there are still people in the Jiangnan area who secretly use this Gu technique to harm others. Coincidentally, my master had dealt with this Gu worm back then, so I could recognize it at a glance.”
Lin Chengyou looked at Lu Zhaoan sideways: “Understood? The courage of the two victims. Kejia, after figuring out what happened, in order to prevent you from harming others in the future, I took the initiative to make a confession at Dali Temple. Now people are stunned and the physical evidence is all there, waiting to bring you to justice. In addition, Wang In order to pinch you, I have already hidden several of your handwritten letters—”
As soon as they spoke, several palace guards with high martial arts tied Lu Zhaoan to death.
Lu Zhaoan seemed to be covered with mud and ashes, his face was uglier than a dead person, his mouth was blocked by a cloth and he could not speak, so he could only stare at Lin Chengyou.
Lin Chengyou smiled: “I know what you’re thinking, there’s evidence, why do you have to let your sophistry for so long? Nonsense, of course, I want to see what jokes you can make. You’ve been dealing with cases for so long, and you’re used to seeing vicious prisoners. But it’s rare to see someone as thick-skinned as your Excellency. The more smug you are, the more hypocritical you are. Take it away!” The
palace guards were about to put a cloth in Wu Qi’s mouth, but Wu Qi suddenly said: “Wait!”
She cast a last look at the prince with nostalgia, and said in despair: “As of now, I only have one question. In order to be safe, before I officially started, I used my classmates to play in Du Tinglan’s room. I had the opportunity to steal two of her poems, but Du Tinglan didn’t notice it until I returned the poems. This shows that she doesn’t pay attention to these little things. Why did she notice so quickly that night? If it wasn’t for her So hurry up and report the case, you can’t follow the vine and find Wang Li’s head, and then find so much evidence.”
Lin Chengyou smiled: “No comment.”
Wu Qi looked at Du Tinglan and Teng Yuyi on the table unwillingly, and suddenly seemed to realize it. What: “I see, is it in the room—”
Lin Chengyou had already blocked Wu Qi’s mouth.
Teng Yuyi looked at Wu Qi coldly. Although she entered the academy with the purpose of catching a thief, she did not expect to find out so quickly. The Hundred Flowers Disabled Organ she set up didn’t come in handy, but she accidentally caught the main culprit who murdered her in her previous life in her sister’s room.
This is really a self-organized arrangement.
The officers pressed Wang Li and waited for the criminal to leave, Wu Qi stumbled a few steps, and suddenly turned to look at her brother who was watching her from a distance.
Suddenly, ignoring the restraints of the yamen, she knelt down and kowtowed three times in Wu Yuanluo’s direction. Her movements were hurried and heavy, and her forehead broke in just a few strokes. After doing all this, she turned around decisively. He never looked back until he was pushed out of the garden.
Wu Yuanluo’s Adam’s apple rolled, expressionlessly watching the second sister leave.
No one knows who Wu Qi’s three heads are for.
Maybe it is to apologize to the mother and father, or it may be to say goodbye. Or, she was finally awakened to her conscience by the memories of her brother just now, because she couldn’t resist the torment in her heart, so she said to the poor sister in this way:
I’m sorry.
***
In the evening of the next day, Dali Temple was in jail.
Lin Chengyou said to Lu Zhaoan in the iron prison: “Okay, I brought Wang Li to you.”
Lu Zhaoan slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw Wang Li who was tied up with five flowers behind Lin Chengyou, his eyes couldn’t help revealing A fiery affection.
He himself seemed to be taken aback, and looked at Lin Chengyou in awe, hesitating in his mouth, as if he was asking: What have you done for me?
Lin Chengyou folded his arms and said: “Your Excellency isn’t very smart, you can’t see it, I found a pack of Gu worms in the dark compartment of your room, I didn’t understand how to use it yesterday, but I tried it on you today. My sweetheart is Wang Li, so I always think about her, I know you want to see her, so I sent her to you.”
Lu Zhaoan’s eyes widened, Wang Li seemed to be stunned too, her face was stunned. Lin Chengyou’s human skin mask has been torn off, and his original appearance has been restored, at least he is in his fifties, and his complexion is dark, and he was born with a pair of mean triangular eyes.
Lu Zhaoan struggled violently, wishing to be smashed to death in the prison, but whenever his eyes swept over Wang Li, he immediately became obsessed again.
Lin Chengyou had an innocent look on his face: “Good Gu worm, it really has an immediate effect. What’s the matter? Are you happy when you see Wang Li?”
Lu Zhaoan tried his best not to let his eyes touch Wang Li, and just stared at Lin Chengyou, that hatred The expression on his face is clear at a glance: Lin Chengyou, a scholar cannot be humiliated, you should just kill me with one knife.
Lin Chengyou put Wang Li on the torture apparatus, and pretended to punish Wang Li.
Lu Zhao’an’s face changed on the spot, as if seeing his most beloved being wronged, he actually twisted and climbed to the front of the cage: Don’t move her, what are you going to ask me.
Immediately, he understood again, and he pointed his finger at Lin Chengyou: You are extremely shameless.
Lin Chengyou’s smile became worse and worse. He and Teng Yuyi came up with this method that night.
Lost to no end.
To deal with such a traitorous villain, the ordinary punishment is simply not painful. Only by letting Lu Zhaoan experience the taste of being controlled by a worm can it be regarded as a way of repaying others.
“Tell me, did you and your accomplice take away the soul of Mr. Hu Jizhen?” Lin Chengyou unhurriedly buckled the torture tool for Wang Yu.
Wang Hao was not afraid of being punished, and this was naturally said to Lu Zhaoan.
Lu Zhaoan’s teeth were still clenched, but he couldn’t hide the deep pain and worry in his eyes.
Lin Chengyou stepped aside and waved his hand to let the yamen execute the punishment. Seeing that Wang Yu was going to suffer a lot, Lu Zhaoan closed his eyes in pain: I said.
The yamen in the distance were shocked one by one. After a day and a night, both Wang Li and Lu Zhaoan refused to open their mouths. Unexpectedly, after being tinkered with by Lin Ping for a while, they loosened up immediately.
Lin Chengyou motioned the yamen to stop, went to the cage and ripped off the cloth from Lu Zhaoan’s mouth, and said coldly, “Who is the master behind the scenes?”
Lu Zhaoan did not answer immediately, but looked at Wang Yu with infinite pity.
Lin Chengyou couldn’t help but snorted.
Even Wang Hao herself was stunned, she closed her eyelids tightly, and refused to meet Lu Zhaoan’s eyes. Obviously, she would rather be tortured than this.
The yamen kept holding back their laughter. The idea of Lin Pingshi was really bad, but it seemed to have a miraculous effect.
Lu Zhaoan glared at Lin Chengyou angrily: “As long as you don’t touch her, I’ll say anything.”
Lin Chengyou waited for the numbness on his body to pass, and then nodded with a smile: “Okay, I won’t move her.”
Lu Zhaoan was silent for a while, then said expressionlessly: “Since I came to Chang’an, I have always been a man named Calyx. Ji’s wife contacted me, but I don’t know who is behind the scenes, because there are a lot of things that Ji Ji asked me to do.”
Lin Chengyou was startled, although he had long suspected that Ji Ji was the master of Jingchen. That gang, but I didn’t expect that she was the one who was in charge of connecting with Lu Zhaoan.
“How did you meet her?”
“Before leaving for Chang’an last year, a Confucian scholar named Wang Jiuen from Yangzhou came to look for me. He knew some sorcery. I have some silver taels, and I am an old-fashioned person, so I know he has some problems, but I often interact with him. Wang Jiuen said that with my knowledge, I must go to high school, but if I want to become an official, the middle jinshi is only the first step. It is indispensable to meet some noble people in Beijing. I listened to his instructions and went to Pingkangfang to find Calyx when I arrived in Chang’an, only to find out that she is a fake mother of a brothel.”
When Lu Zhaoan spoke, he glanced at Wang who was not far away from time to time. old woman. The expression is twisted and weird, sometimes disgusted, sometimes affectionate.
“Can Qi Ji reveal to you who is the master behind her?”
Lu Zhaoan shook his head: “When I was not yet a jinshi, Qi Ji treated me very coldly, and when she heard that I was awarded Kui Yuan, she suddenly warmed up to me and offered to give it to me. I have money, and I also say that I have the talent of a prime minister. When I listened to her, I really didn’t look like a dusty woman, so I asked her what her origins were, and she naturally knew when she said she should know. But it was not enough. It needed a lot of money to be arranged in the court, but as long as I listened to her words, it would not be a problem. Later, she introduced me to Wang Li and said that if she is not convenient to come forward, she will let me contact Wang Li.
Lin Chengyou lowered his eyes and pondered, it seemed that the master behind the scenes at least knew officials from the official department or the provincial government .
“Have you ever met Master Jing Chen? Did you know that she and Caly Ji were in the same group?”
“I haven’t seen her. The only people who have dealt with me from beginning to end are Calypse and Wangyu, and since I became a jinshi, more and more nobles in Chang’an City are willing to make friends with me, and Calyxe and Wangyu have become more and more close. Me.”
“Why did Hu Ji really get killed?”
“I was at a banquet at the British government’s mansion, and a singer suddenly threw a ball of paper at my feet. I picked it up and saw that it was Wang’s handwriting. She He told me to go home immediately and said that an important person wanted to see me. I hurried home, but I was bumped into by Hu Jizhen on the way. This little man was so worried about the fact that I left him in the palace, and he actually followed him all the time. Behind me. After I entered the house, I saw Wang Yu and Wang Jiuen, which was a little surprising, because since Yangzhou parted, I hadn’t seen Wang Jiuen for a long time. Just as I was about to close the door, I didn’t expect Hu Jizhen to push the door and break in, saying: Ask Big Brother Lu a question in person, and leave after asking.”
Wang Jiu’en and Wang Li’s expressions changed at that time, and then there was movement in the room, obviously there were other guests.
Hu Jizhen came back to his senses quickly, and he wanted to salute out of politeness, saying that it was too late, and Wang Li was about to kill Hu Jizhen with a silver thread.
Lu Zhaoan was trembling with fear, but when he heard someone in the room make a noise, as if someone was knocking on the table, Wang Li immediately retracted the silver wire, and instead took a picture of a large talisman towards Hu Jizhen.
Lin Chengyou asked with a sullen face, “Is the master behind the scenes in the house at that time?”
“I don’t know, Wang Li performed sorcery in front of me, and I was both frightened and scared, because I was afraid that the next round would come. Come to me. Wang Li said that she would handle the next thing, and asked me to rush back to the British government immediately, then pretend that nothing happened, and continue to feast with others. I did as she said, and when I came back, Wang Both Lao and Wang Jiu’en were gone. The next day I heard that Mr. Hu had gone insane.”
“Have you never seen the master behind the scenes?”
Lu Zhaoan shook his head again: “I haven’t even seen Caaji recently. Wang Li said that she was being watched because of the rioting in Caifenglou, and she might not be able to come out for a long time. She told me to just come to her when I have something to do, and don’t go to Pingkangfang.”
Lin Chengyou lowered his eyes and pondered, the long line seemed to be getting clearer and clearer, and then he asked, “Did you go to find Wang Jiu’en later? Where did he live after he came to Chang’an?”
“He lived in an old house in Mo’er Lane. ”
Moth Lane? Lin Chengyou was stunned for a moment, the name is very familiar, yes, I remember Teng Yuyi told him that Duanfu accidentally found a man in black cloak at Yuzhen Nuguan Guan, and immediately chased it out, chasing it all the way to Moer Lane, black cloak. People disappeared.
“What you said is the truth? If there is half a lie, I will definitely entertain your sweetheart.” Lin Chengyou said with a smile, and at the same time ordered the yamen over there to use torture tools again.
Lu Zhaoan looked at Wang Li with all kinds of nostalgia. He only hated that he couldn’t help himself. After struggling for a while, he said with a white face, “Don’t bully her. I-I’m telling the truth.”
Lin Chengyou shook the goose bumps on his body, The method is good, but it is very nauseous. Just as he was about to continue to ask questions, an old yamen servant named Li Si came in and said, “Lin Ping, there is a prince outside who is looking for you in a hurry.”
Lin Chengyou froze and was about to get up . , looked at the time, and asked cautiously: “What does it look like?”
“It’s white and clean, and it looks very beautiful, tsk tsk, this is the first time the villain has seen such a good-looking son.” Li Si said with emotion.
The smile in Lin Chengyou’s heart almost came to his face. It seemed that Teng Yuyi really wanted to leave. Instead of leaving in a hurry, he pretended to be indifferent: “How many people did she bring with her? What’s the matter?
” A burly man, he said he had urgent matters to find Lin Ping.”
