In the middle of the afternoon, the guests who had come to the banquet left one after another. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the main hall of the fifth entrance, Zhou Tingyu had already changed into clean clothes, washed off the smell of wine, and was sitting on a chair to rest.

Shu Hongxuan, the old man of the Yan family, Yan Xiangrong and others are also there.

Shu Yanhua ordered the grapes to serve iced mung bean soup, and everyone drank and talked at the same time.

"Grandfather, did you find anything over there?" Shu Hongxuan asked with concern.

Zhou Tingyu invited the rice merchants in the capital to a banquet, which were received by the old man of the Yan family and Yan Xiangrong, and the two were also tasked with spying on the news.

Old Man Yan stroked his beard, his face was not very good, "I have tested the tone of many people, they all said that before Hua Niang raised food, their own food stocks were sufficient, and now they have received new grain, and there is no shortage of supply." ”

Old Man Yan spies on people of his generation or the same level, such as the Peng family, which is also one of the top ten.

"The rice in Shangjing is generally harvested from the fish and water towns rich in rice such as Jiangnan and Huainan, and the rice in these places is more delicious than the rice grown in the suburbs of Shangjing, mainly for the big families in Gaomen, and I heard them say that when they harvested rice last year, it was still the same as in previous years, and there was a lot of new grain."

In other words, the rice in Jiangnan Province and Huainan Province has no external forces, and the grain is sufficient, so it doesn't look like it will be bought in large quantities?

"I chatted with other owners of the rice shop, and they said the same thing."

Yan Xiangrong also spoke out about his findings.

Shu Hongxuan pondered, could it be that his idea was wrong and the direction of the investigation was wrong?

Tracing and buying grain was not found, spying on the rice store was not found, what went wrong?

Could it be that that the grain did not flow out of the land of fish and water, but from remote places such as Shudi?

Zhou Tingyu sat on the chair, tilted his head, supported his chin with his hands, half-squinted, and said nothing.

"Axu, what do you think?" Shu Hongxuan asked.

Zhou Tingyu opened his eyes slightly, with a touch of red on his face, "Unexpectedly, since the Zhao family can even kill their own subordinates, how can they leave clues for us to trace?" ”

Originally, Zhou Tingyu still hoped that he could start the investigation from the grain, but the confessions of Kurban and others made him understand that things were far from being as good as he thought.

The other party came prepared, acted cautiously, and the method of erasing the traces was very sophisticated, and the layout had been for many years, if it weren't for the fact that the leader had been staring at the border city, and had multiple eyes, I am afraid that the other courtyards in the border city would be difficult to find.

It was an unexpected joy to be able to detain the Zhao family's caravan.

The unexpected joy shows that this kind of thing is not common.

The old man of the Yan family and Yan Xiangrong knew what their grandson and grandson-in-law were doing, and when they saw that things were in a bottleneck again, they were anxious for them.

Shu Hongxuan felt that Zhou Tingyu was a little unhurried, and looked at him puzzled.

As if feeling the eyes of the eldest brother, Zhou Tingyu raised his eyelids, "Eldest brother, do you remember the last time we were summoned to the palace?" ”

"Yes."

"Uncle, try to see if you can release a specious message, which makes people mistakenly think that when we entered the palace, we were actually discussing Turks, border cities, and traitors."

Zhou Tingyu's words made the rest of the people look sideways.

Shu Yanhua and the others didn't know what Zhou Tingyu said when he entered the palace, but it sounded like ...

"Ah Xu, you want to use fake news to deceive people?" Shu Yanhua looked at him in surprise.

"Aren't you business-minded people the most afraid of encountering immortal jumps? That's how I borrowed it. ”

Zhou Tingyu felt that sitting on the boulder and chatting with the third brother for a while gave him a lot of ideas.

Shu Hongxuan thought about it and responded, "Okay, I will arrange this matter." ”

Zhou Tingyu drank a lot of wine, and felt a little uncomfortable, he got up and waved at Shu Hongxuan and the others, "Uncle, grandfather, uncle, please forgive me for not being able to accompany me, I am dizzy, go and rest first." ”

Shu Hongxuan also stood up, "It's not too early, let's go home too." ”

sent her brother, grandfather and others away, and Shu Yanhua also waited for Zhou Tingyu to rest.

On the other side, the second prince looked at the third prince with some impatience, "Out of Xiao Wu's mansion, there is not even a respite, what are you looking for me?" ”

Seeing that the third prince's face was not good, and his whole body exuded cold, the second prince gradually restrained his expression and sat up straight, "What's wrong?" ”

The third prince looked at the second prince expressionlessly, and spat out a sentence from between his teeth, "Those Turks have spoken." ”

"What?"

"Bang"

In the excitement, the second prince stood up suddenly, and even the chair behind him was knocked over.

"Didn't they all say that those Turks were brave and hard-boned, how could they be pried open?"

The second prince complained, and asked nervously, "Then what did they recruit?" ”

The third prince blushed and shook his head.

The second prince was dissatisfied, "Is it time to hide and tuck, don't forget, we are people in the same boat, and it is not good for you and me to hide it." ”

The third prince glanced at him coldly, "I really don't know what those Turks recruited. ”

"Then how did you know that the Turks had spoken?" The second prince didn't believe it, and looked at him with suspicion.

"Just after being at Xiao Wu's place, Xiao Wu was drunk and accidentally revealed a few words, but he quickly came to his senses, and I didn't find more news in the end."

The words of the third prince made the second prince frown and paced back and forth, "What Xiao Wu said, are you sure it is true?" ”

The third prince sneered, "It's been nearly a month since the Turks were escorted back to Beijing, and Xiao Wu is not a wine barrel and rice bag, and he didn't set up a banquet even if he was canonized as the king of Chu before, but it was set up at this time, if it wasn't for the progress made in the prison, do you think he had the heart to set up a banquet?" ”

The second prince was speechless by the rhetorical question, sat on the chair, and asked, "Then what should we do now?" ”

"I still don't know what my father said when he summoned the crown prince and Xiao Wu into the palace?"

The unknown is fearful, and if you can know, you won't panic.

"I don't know, there's not a bit of air leaking out." The second prince's face was not good, "I will send someone to investigate again." ”

"I don't know what happened to the palace that time, and I don't know what the Turks confessed..."

The third prince frowned and pondered, and said what he had thought about for a long time, "I thought, even if the Turks confess, it will not involve the two of us for the time being, otherwise we won't be able to sit and discuss so calmly, but we can't let Xiao Wu go on like this, we must find something to attract his attention." ”

"Do you have a way?"

"Isn't Xiao Wu's ability to canonize the King of Chu benefit from his military exploits? His military exploits are thanks to Shu Hongxuan's secret weapon, so starting with Shu Hongxuan, Xiao Wu will not ignore his eldest brother when he is in trouble.

Taking advantage of Xiao Wu's inability to take care of the prison, he found an opportunity to end up with the three Turks, and killed Chen Yuanjian, and as soon as the clue was broken, let them go to hell to find the dead and ask the truth! ”
