Chapter 872: Unsustainable
Changfeng saw that Lin Wan was worried, and he didn't know how to persuade him. After a moment of silence, he frowned and said, "Otherwise, I'll go to the northern frontier in person, right?"
Lin Wan was stunned, shook his head and said: "No need, it won't help you go, and the road is far away, when you go, Sister Qinxin will have to go back to Dongli, I can't take advantage of your rare time together." ”
Changfeng opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. While he was hesitating, the door was opened again, and a gale entered through the door.
Gale Feng walked up to Lin Wan, bowed down and said, "Miss, Gu Wen'an's background has not been found for the time being, I have already asked people to go to Jiangnan to inquire." But the case from five years ago may really be related to him. The old lady turned over the file of the case, and Gu Wenan and the deceased had a big fight because of a dusty woman. Later, the result was that the woman killed the deceased and then committed suicide. However, according to the old man, there are still many doubts in this case, and the biggest possibility is that the deceased killed the dusty woman, and Gu Wenan killed the deceased in this case. ”
Lin Wan frowned and asked suspiciously, "But, why would the government think that the dusty woman committed suicide?"
Gale had already asked all the questions about the case, and replied without hesitation: "The woman left a blood note before she died, confessing her crimes and the fact that she committed suicide. ”
Lin Wan nodded and continued to ask, "So, what is the suspicion that grandpa said?"
Gale thought for a moment and said, "The old lady said that although the handwriting on the blood book is that of the dusty woman, the words and sentences are also tried to imitate the woman's tone. However, the old lady said that a woman who had just killed someone and was planning to commit suicide could not be so sober and organized. ”
Lin Wan nodded thoughtfully, frowned, and said: "Grandpa has been handling cases for many years, so he can naturally see the problem at a glance, since he said that Gu Wenan is suspicious, Gu Wenan must not be able to get out of it." However, it doesn't matter whether he is an innocent victim or a murderer now, and no one can judge him. I only hope that Mr. Qiu's handwritten letter will be useful, and that he will listen to Mr. Qiu's advice and not kill himself!"
When Gale heard this, he said with some hesitation: "Miss, when my subordinates came back, I saw Mr. Qiu riding a fast horse out of the city, heading north. ”
Lin Wan hooked his lips and smiled, and said, "Great, Mr. Qiu must have gone to Northern Xinjiang, and I am relieved to have Mr. Qiu here." It seems that Mr. Qiu is really interested in his classmate. ”
Changfeng also nodded happily and said, "I'll let the rudder along the Shadowless Pavilion be responsible for answering it, prepare a few good horses, and replace them for Mr. Qiu." If you travel day and night, if it goes well, you will be there in three days. ”
Lin Wan nodded slightly, but she was still secretly worried in her heart. Even if Gu Wenan listened to Mr. Qiu's words and cooperated with Zhou Tianqi, the Northern Qi general Zhou Tiankai was unwilling to let go of this opportunity and insisted on taking this opportunity to exterminate Baifeng Village in one fell swoop, so what should he do?
If Bai Fengzhai agreed to cooperate with Zhou Tianqi, then Zhou Tianqi would not be able to ignore the life and death of the Bai Fengzhai gang, let alone betray Bai Fengzhai.
However, Zhou Tianqi entered Baifeng Valley and borrowed from the head of Baifeng Village. Zhou Tiankai made up his mind to cooperate with the Yulin Army and break through Baifeng Village.
In such a stalemate, the suffering is still the Yulin Army trapped in Baifeng Valley, and the people of Northern Xinjiang who are waiting for disaster relief materials.
Baifeng Valley is the only mountain road for horse-drawn carriages to lead to the county seat of Northern Xinjiang, although the 1,000 Yulin troops sent by Li Ping to support can bypass Baifeng Mountain and go to the exit of Baifeng Valley, but there is no way to send disaster relief materials to the county town of Northern Xinjiang.
Fortunately, Bei Xiao Nan had already notified the officials of Bei Chen Guo and sent some grain to the people of Beijiang County. Otherwise, the people of the northern county town would have been unable to sustain themselves.
The biggest reason why Zhou Tianqi was in such a hurry to let the convoy out of the valley was for the people of the northern county town. Every year, many people in the county town of Beijiang will freeze to death and starve to death, and the people of the county town of Beijiang and Fu Mingye have lost hope in the imperial court.
This year, because of the Queen Mother's birthday, the envoys from all over the world were there, so Zhou Changan issued a holy decree and asked Zhou Tianqi to transport the second batch of grain. Unexpectedly, the sky was not beautiful, and it suddenly snowed heavily and stopped the grain convoy outside the city of northern Xinjiang.
Lin Wan pondered for a long time, then raised his eyes and asked, "Gale Wind, have you found out the details of Liu Yifei's bottom line? What was the last dart he took? Who was the employer? Who robbed the dart?"
Gale shook his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "Miss Hui's words, the subordinates only found out that the employer seems to be related to the Lu family. However, what exactly was that dart and who robbed it, there is no clue for the time being, and the subordinates will continue to investigate. ”
Lin Wan was stunned, frowned and asked, "It has something to do with the Lu family? How did you know? How could the Lu family have goods to be sent to the county seat in Northern Xinjiang?"
Gale shook his head and said, "Miss Hui's words, it's not that the Lu family has something to send to Northern Xinjiang, but someone sent something from the county town of Northern Xinjiang to Lu Lao Guogong, but it was robbed halfway." Lu Laoguo also sent a lot of people to investigate the matter, and once suspected that it was the Flying Fox Dart Bureau that was guarding and stealing, so he forced Liu Yifei to leave the Dart Bureau. Although Lu Laoguo did not make a public announcement in the capital back then, the movement was not small. So as soon as I asked, the brother in charge of collecting the information thought about it, and there should be no mistake. ”
Lin Wan nodded and said, "Go check and see what it is?" I have let the Lu family look for it for so long, and I haven't given up yet." Presumably, the generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty in the past dynasties were helping the Lu family find this thing, so they pressed Baifengzhai step by step, and the crux was Liu Yifei, the second leader of Baifengzhai. The Lu family must have thought that the thing was still in Liu Yifei's hands, so they chased him relentlessly, even if he left the Flying Fox Dart Bureau and fell into the grass, they refused to let him go. However, what is it that makes the Lu family attach so much importance to it?"
"Yes, miss, my subordinates will continue to investigate, and we must find out the results as soon as possible." Gale hurriedly bowed down to receive the order.
Lin Wan nodded slightly, and continued to ask: "Gale Wind, the situation of the Seven Princes and the situation in the county town of Northern Xinjiang, does the emperor know?"
Gale immediately nodded and said, "If Miss Hui speaks, the emperor already knows." Early this morning, the four princes had already arrived in the capital. This morning, the emperor and the ministers discussed the matter, Lord Lin, Wang Yushi and our old lady, all advocated rescuing the Seven Princes and the Yulin Army first, solving the problem of the survival of the people in northern Xinjiang, and then settling accounts with Baifeng Zhai after the autumn. However, the eldest prince, the third prince and Qin Shangshu all thought that they could take this opportunity to let the seventh prince and the fourth prince join forces and take Baifeng Village in one fell swoop. ”
