Slice 98 Stranded dead ship
Zhao Qinghe's eyes were deep, and he couldn't see what he was thinking. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Later, Zhao Zishuo's statement was considered to have solved Xia Su's confusion.
It turned out that it was not genius burnout, but a letter from Uncle Wang asking Zhao Zishuo to come to Beijing earlier.
Master Zhao said that Eleven Niang wanted to go to Hangzhou, let him simply take a boat together, and then enter Beijing from Hangzhou, first, to take care of the way, and second, to cultivate brotherly feelings with Zhao Qinghe.
Of course, Zhao Zishuo did not disclose what he said later.
Not to mention that Jingshi has Zhao's old house and old servants, and the palace also welcomes nephews to live at any time, Zhao Zishuo does not need to bring too much luggage, in addition to bringing some books to read, he will also change clothes along the way, and be ready to go out early, and he can go as soon as the box is lifted.
The poor family carried their belongings, and the rich family traveled lightly, which was in response to this situation, but it reminded Xia Su of the situation when he was reluctant to lose a piece of torn clothes, and he went to Zhao's mansion with large bags and small bags.
Although there were many uninvited people, a son and two young ladies, and twelve or thirteen servants and maidservants who took care of them during the journey, carrying luggage, arranging cabins, and making a lot of noise, the boat finally did not delay for too long, and sailed into the river before midnight and headed for Hangzhou.
At that time, Xia Su's mind was still very simple, recognize the boat and the corpse to find clues, and then go to Hangzhou to see Zhao Jiuniang and swim in the West Lake.
The waterway between Suzhou and Hangzhou is unimpeded, and the fast travel is more than a day, but because of the early arrival of the rainy season this year, the rapids have increased, especially at night, so Zhao Zishuo proposed to sail only during the day.
Zhao Qinghe looked at the map, and the tributary was near the dock mentioned by Zhao Zishuo, thinking that it was just right, how could he disagree?
So, on the second night of departure, the boat entered a big river town to rest late, Zhao Zishuo took Eleven Niang and Cen Xuemin ashore for dinner, Zhao Qinghe said that he would meet them later, but with Dong Lin, Xia Su and Qiao Sheng, he changed to a small boat and went to the tributary to find a shoal.
Dong Lin laughed at Zhao Qinghe, who deceived the dead and did not pay for his life.
Zhao Qinghe said, "What about cheating? I have told the ship that it will turn around by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. Thinking that Zhao Zishuo is not stupid, it is impossible to wait until dawn, as long as he returns to the ship. I annoyed him to ask carefully, and I couldn't get away with four words. ”
Zhao Qinghe was in a hurry to come out this time, and he didn't explain it clearly to Zhao Feng and his wife, the reason was almost perfunctory, and it was difficult to know that the people of the house were willing to lend the official boat, and there was no such shop in this village.
Zhao Zishuo heard out of nowhere that Dong Lin had official affairs, and he asked after getting on the boat, and he was not fooled, and he insisted on breaking the casserole to ask to the end.
Looking at it this way, at this point of stubbornness, the blood relationship between Zhao Feng, Zhao Qinghe and Zhao Zishuo is highlighted.
"If you want to say annoying, how can you be annoying? The few thieves in Suzhou were all re-turned by you who annoyed me and couldn't stand it. Dong Lin recalled the past that was not an old thing, and turned his head to complain to Xia Su, "This old man always said that there was something suspicious, this is not right, that is not appropriate, it makes the prefect hate it at first, but every time the case is closed, there is a follow-up, so that now he can't leave him, the lord is really ......"
How so?
"Love and hate me." Zhao Qinghe hit the nail on the head.
Dong Lin slapped his thigh and shouted yes, then rubbed his arms and trembled, "You just need to disgust yourself." ”
Xia Su saw that the two of them were talking like juggling, and laughed.
"Here we are." Qiao Sheng heard from the bow of the boat.
Xia Su walked up slowly, luck was good this night, it was just a light rain, so the torches did not disperse, and a long dragon was formed to illuminate the crooked and slanted broken boat on the shallows.
She immediately recognized that it was the cargo ship of the thieves.
On the shore, the two men came over, both wearing fishing clothes, and one of the short Dunhan spoke politely, but revealed that he was familiar with Dong Lin, "If you don't come again, I will close the team." ”
"Forget it, Lao Zheng reported to me early yesterday morning, although it is the boundary of your Hangzhou Prefecture, but this place is closer to our Suzhou. I just delayed for a while, and you didn't arrive long before me, to collect a bird team. "Dong Lin came to Zhao Qinghe," Mr. Lin captured, recognize his face, he is Zhao Qinghe. "Greet that old Zheng again.
Mr. Lin is the head of the Hangzhou government, and Lao Zheng is the head of the county government that governs this area. Zhao Qinghe clenched his fists, and when it was time to speak, he was never ambiguous.
"You are Zhao Qinghe? Let the prefect of Suzhou send a letter to our lordship, asking the patrol ship and the dock to search strictly, and it is expected that the thieves will take this waterway. I heard that you also solved the burglary murder case in Suzhou. Mr. Lin hugged his fists back, full of appreciation, "It's better to meet after hearing for a long time, you are really a good man." Come to my Hangzhou Mansion and I'll let you be the deputy chief arrester, how about it? ”
Dong Lin hurriedly squeezed in and shouted at Mr. Lin, "Don't even think about it, Zhao Qinghe belongs to our Suzhou Mansion!" ”
Although Xia Su knew that Zhao Qinghe was very popular, he didn't know that he was so popular, so he peeked at him.
Zhao Qinghe was not the slightest bit proud, and only asked Lao Zheng, "Zheng Zhutou, the dead man is not on the boat, right?" ”
Lao Zheng nodded and motioned for them to go with him, "There were few boats in this area, and they were still frozen before, but the ice melted a few days ago, so the boats moved, and a boatman came to report the case the night before." The bottom of the ship is leaking seriously, if it weren't for the watertight compartment, coupled with God's help, the water flow becomes faster during the rainy season, so that the ship runs aground, and sinks to find a ghost! Corpses, phew, aren't corpses anymore, most of them have bones left. ”
Zhao Qinghe suddenly stopped and said to Xia Su, "Sister, don't follow, I originally wanted you to recognize the corpse, it's all rotten, there should be nothing to see." Call you again if you need to. ”
Lin Zongzhu and Lao Zheng were surprised when they found out that there was actually a girl behind Zhao Qinghe.
Mr. Lin was a little anxious, "Hey, it's strange, I handle so many murder cases, and it's rare to see the girl's family go forward." Who is this? ”
Dong Lin saw the stitches and needles to make trouble, "Qinghe and his daughter-in-law ......"
The back of his head was suddenly slapped lightly, turning left and right, but there was no "murderer", only Xia Sujing stood on his side.
Dong Lin saw Xia Su's fastness, stuck out his tongue, and changed his words, "Qinghe's righteous sister Miss Xia was also kidnapped to the boat that day, so I brought her to recognize the boat." ”
As an experienced head-hunting boss, he naturally would not miss the first four words, and he also laughed at Zhao Qinghe, "Righteous sister, you are a good match for your righteous brother, with the courage and fearlessness of the daughter of the rivers and lakes, and being able to go up the knife mountain and go down the sea of fire with the masters, compared to my family, who can cook and make noise, it is really the difference between heaven and earth." ”
Zhao Qinghe teased with Mr. Lin, just laughing, not admitting but not denying it.
Xia Su wanted to correct his name, and the four men seemed to have ambitions together, and their steps suddenly opened.
Only Qiao Sheng stayed.
"You're not going?" Xia Su's negative emotions come and go quickly, and he can't sulk with himself because of these people's jokes.
"The young master said, you can't let the girl be left without protection, you stay, I stay." Qiao Sheng is Zhao Qinghe's good helper, and like Qiao Lian, while his fist and foot kung fu are improving day by day, his head is also much better.
