Chapter 333: Brain Hole
The man in black who had a secret meeting with Lan Xue in the middle of the night couldn't really be a doctor.
Zhao Shuo's mansion is located in the inner city, and the people who live nearby are basically high-ranking officials and nobles, and the doctors are not nothing, but they are all several, either the Tai Doctor, or they have been too doctors, and there are only two people who have no experience in the Tai Hospital, one of them is the doctor in the pharmacy, who is already in the age of the sixtieth year, of course, he will not have such good skills, and he can climb the high wall in the middle of the night; the other is a middle-aged man, it is said that he often comes to Zhao Shuo's house, and he is a doctor that Lan Xue is used to. On the day when Lan Xue hit the wall and pretended to be seriously injured, it was he who was invited by the people in the house to treat her, but before he entered the second gate, he turned around and said goodbye, according to his own words, because he heard that the imperial doctor was coming.
This man is not a man in black. Zhao Mo asked people to investigate him, in fact, he happened to open a museum nearby to practice medicine, and he was more greedy for money and weak, and from time to time he would be bribed by the daughters of rich and noble families, and do some things that were not very worthy of the table, such as helping people pretend to be sick or prescribing some drugs that could not be seen. Every time Lan Xue wants to pretend to be sick and weak, she will always get used to coming to him. He only needs to give him a prior command, and he will cooperate with the employer's request to explain the other person's illness or injury, or mislead others into thinking that the other person has another disease. He's already done with it.
Of course, he also knew that these things he did were not visible, once he provoked a really powerful person, what was waiting for him would never be a good end, so he has always been very vigilant, and when he sees that the situation is not good, he will find a way to slip away, and never really intervene in those events related to the inheritance rights of high-ranking families or human life. That day, he got a message from Lan Xue's people, and planned to act in a play according to the usual practice, and when he heard that the imperial doctor was coming, he knew that he could not fake Lan Xue under the nose of the imperial doctor, so in order to avoid being regarded as an accomplice, he simply took the first step to escape. Anyway, a concubine who can only live in the inner courtyard will be offended if she is offended, it is not a big deal, at most it is just one less way to make money.
He usually keeps his mouth tight and will not divulge the secrets of his clients and employers without authorization. However, Zhao Mo found him, he was rich and powerful, and his attitude was quite tough, he would not be stupid enough to keep a secret for Lan Xue.
Qin Hanzhen was a little disappointed when she heard that he was not a man in black, but she quickly thought again: "Who told this doctor to let him cooperate with Lan Xue to act, and exaggerated Lan Xue's injury? Lan Xue hit the wall, it should be an emergency, she was not prepared in advance, right? It must have been after she hit the wall, and she temporarily thought of finding a familiar doctor to help with the acting, and told Yuanshang." Who was the one who went to ask for a doctor at that time? How could he happen to invite this one? And to hand him a message and ask him to cooperate, this messenger must be Lan Xue's confidant, and it is impossible to find a random mother-in-law to deliver the message. Zhu'er shouldn't have left Lan Xue's side, right?Zhen'er went to deliver medicine out of the house, could it be Zhen'er's mother?No, you just said that Zhen'er's mother has been with Zhao Qi, Zhao Qi ran away, and she chased her out. Who else would there be? There are still Lan Xue's accomplices in your father's mansion?
Zhao Mo smiled and said, "What a smart thing, you thought of it so quickly? I only realized that something was wrong later, and asked the doctor again, and he told me about a person, and I have already asked people to pay attention to this person's movements." Whether he was temporarily instructed or was Lan Xue's accomplice himself, he couldn't escape the palm of my hand. As long as he moves, sooner or later he will show his feet!"
Qin Hanzhen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "You already have a lot of chips in your hands now, Lan Xue doesn't say it, that Zhen'er and Zhen'er's mother, and Lan Fusheng, and now they are eyeing another of Lan Xue's accomplices, and even the location of her accomplices, you are staring at them." I suppose it won't take you long to find out what they're all about, right?"
Zhao Mo thought about it and was quite confident in himself: "Everything is under my control, if I can't find out the whole thing clearly, then it's too incompetent!"
Of course, he still has a long way to go if he wants to clarify the whole thing and find out who the person behind Lan Xue is.
Lan Fusheng didn't have a few words of truth on his side, and few of the new confessions were useful, and it was estimated that he would have to grind him for some more time.
Lan Xue is now honestly recuperating from her injuries, except for losing her temper at the girl who waits and monitors her from time to time, and shouting to see her son, she seems to have stopped all suspicious movements, probably being warned by her accomplices.
Zhen'er's mother and daughter stayed honestly in the captivity, not crying or making trouble, but just begging someone to let them go, and their words and deeds were like real ordinary servants and maids, careful not to show the slightest trace.
As for the eyes and ears who remained in Zhao Shuo's mansion, as well as his companions who may or may not exist, there were no suspicious words or deeds, if it wasn't for the doctor pointing out his name, Zhao Mo would probably never suspect him.
These threads are currently at a standstill. Zhao Mo felt that if he wanted to find a breakthrough, he could only hope for a few of Lan Xue's accomplices in the outside world. Their behavior is so mysterious, and they are very careful in entering and leaving, for fear that people will notice something strange, which is a very strange thing in itself. If they didn't plan to do something unseemly, Zhao Mo would never believe it. As long as he continues to let people stare at them, I believe that it won't be long before the truth will be revealed.
In this regard, Qin Hanzhen had a little idea, she asked Zhao Mo: "Are the places where these people usually go fixed, and what are the places?"
Zhao Mo thought for a while: "Except for a few of their residences, most of them go to teahouses, taverns and other places, and they ask for a box every time, and it is the most remote and least noticeable box." Moreover, the teahouse tavern they choose usually has more than one entrance. "In addition to the normal store door, the store they frequented will have a back door or a back staircase leading to the back door or something, so they can leave through the back door. Once, Zhao Mo's people almost lost their trace, but fortunately, he found their carriage coming out of the side alley in time, so he immediately embellished it.
Qin Hanzhen pondered for a moment, feeling that the guess in his heart seemed to be a bit of a spectrum: "You say...... Could it be that they are meeting someone in secret? meeting in a box, going in and out the back door, unobtrusively or something...... It's all an obvious routine. They go out in circles and go around the city to avoid being followed, right? But the place where they live is fixed, and even if the person who follows them is thrown away, when they get home, they are not targeted again? But if they go around in circles just to prevent people from discovering who they are meeting, then it makes sense. “
Zhao Mo raised his eyebrows: "That must be the instigator behind them!" Presumably this person's identity is not ordinary, so he needs to be so sneaky to avoid people's eyes...... "He really wants to know, who is so unpleasant to his father Zhao Shuo? Obviously, Zhao Shuo is now powerless, and even the position of the prince of Liao is a little precarious, who is so worthy of him and has placed so many people around him?
Qin Hanzhen also felt that it was better for such a person to find out earlier. Thinking about it, it has been so many years since Lan Xue, Lan Fusheng and others came to Zhao Shuo to wait. If they were someone else's spies from the beginning, then what was there for Zhao Shuo to be worthy of that person's attention? Sending two long-term hidden spies, so hard to mobilize the people, there will always be an important purpose, right? It doesn't sound like it was for the storage position, Zhao Shuo was still 108,000 miles away from the storage position back then, but he was the eldest son of a prince who was not valued and had an unstable status. Unless he is a god operator or a reborn, who would have thought that he would also compete for the throne one day?
Qin Hanzhen said to Zhao Mo with some jokingness: "This looks more like a handiwork between hostile countries. Isn't the Liao Wangfu guarding the Liaodong border? Maybe it was the foreign forces over there who wanted to find out military intelligence or something, so they sent people to infiltrate the Liao Wangfu to be spies. The Liao Wangfu has always been in charge of the military power in Liaodong, right? But your father has always been unfavored, and I guess even if they are really spies, they will have limited information to hear. As for the later follow-up to the capital, it was naturally an unexpected joy. ”
Zhao Mo was stunned for a moment, then suddenly fell silent and was stunned for a while.
Qin Hanzhen didn't notice it, and continued to open his mind: "Hmm, at least to this extent, you can afford such a big stroke." There is more than one spy who has been lurking for more than ten years, and if it is just sent by other vassal kings, it is too exaggerated. Could that vassal king still know that the royal family might have to succeed the emperor so far in advance? Or did he plan to have a struggle between the vassal kings, so that he would send spies to inquire about the information more than ten years in advance? No matter how he thought about it, he didn't think it was very reliable, and the most likely thing was the routine of enemy spies. North of Liaodong, that's the territory of the Beirong people, right? Tsk, there has been no war for more than 30 years, and it's been peaceful for so long, do they want to make trouble again?"
Zhao Mo smiled slightly: "If they want to fight, then they will fight." Whether it is Liaodong or the northern border, the border army has never slackened. When I write to the emperor, I ask the emperor to secretly reorganize the army and prepare for war and step up border patrols. If Beirong thinks that after many years of Chengping, he can easily exploit the loophole of Dazhao, he is really wrong!"
Qin Hanzhen blinked, she was just thinking about it and speculating, why did Zhao Mo's current tone seem to be really Beirong people instructing Lan Xue and them to make trouble? She hurriedly said: "This is just my guess, it may not be that Beirong people are doing ghosts." Now that there is no evidence at all, don't make a big fuss and gossip. ”
Zhao Mo said with a smile: "It's okay, the army was originally rectified every three years, and now the army is replaced by the old and the new, and it is time to rectify." How can anyone gossip about what is right?"
He didn't wait for Qin Hanzhen to continue to say something, so he changed the topic: "Okay, let's not discuss those troubles so much, right?" I have good news for you today, the annex in the north has been almost renovated and is being completed. Hanzhen, would you like to go over and have a look and see what the house you will live in in the future looks like?"
Since it was said that it was another courtyard, why did it become the house she would live in in the future?
Qin Hanzhen took a sip of Zhao Mo gently, but he still couldn't help but feel a little curious in his heart.
