Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Chilling Cicadas Cry Old People's Hearts (1)
The Taihu Lake Water Gang was completely wiped out, which is really not a small thing, but now Yixing City can't make any waves at all. In the end, it just ended in a grudge and hatred in the rivers and lakes, and the tyrannical Duan Jinlan brutally killed and scribbled.
Coupled with the previous theft of silver salary, Yuwen Chengbi's disappearance is really an eventful autumn in Yixing City.
The new Yixing county magistrate has long been dumbfounded, only the Changzhou prefect Du Yanming is still struggling to support, after the covenant of Longbei Mountain, he has been staying in the county magistrate to direct the investigation of various things.
As a partner of the government, Jiang Wuxian would be invited to be a guest almost every day. Of course, as one of the four ministers of the Jiang Mansion, Yu Jingjing, I will also follow to take a look. If you have intelligence, why not? The rivers and lakes are black. It is not easy to spy on the intelligence of the government, not to mention that in the small half a year since I left the Qingming Sect, my forces in Changzhou have been pulled out a lot by Yu Wenhua. I don't have a clue about that terrible salary right now.
Du Yanming was very dedicated to taking us to see the scene of the theft of food and salary, and took us to look through the situation of entering and leaving the city and the security files, but Jiang Wuxian was teasing the maids in the county order while making the people in the yamen turn around, looking at the pictures of leisurely tasting tea and reading the files like reading poetry scrolls, Du Yanming was still very kind, and he didn't frown his eyebrows.
Well, Yu Wenhua and the old fox's henchmen, the cultivation of kung fu is still excellent.
Jiang Wuxie can't help but work, I don't have any opinions, I just need to find important information by myself. In the past few days, I have also met with Yuwen Chengdu in the yamen. That guy looked anxious, and at a glance, he knew that Jiang Wuxie's previous inference about the theft of the silver salary was probably correct, at least the silver salary that disappeared now had nothing to do with the Yuwen valve, and he was also trying very hard to find out. In the face of the ups and downs of Yuwen Chengdu, I have to work harder, how can I not fall behind the Yuwen valve.
However, as the days passed, every day there was no progress in the boring account book, and even the channels of the Qing Ying Sect and the private army guards of the Enchantress's army could not find any important clues. Naturally, my mood became irritable.
"Boom." I became more and more upset after the spring thunder, and the red candles in the house seemed to flow very quickly because of the tense atmosphere at night.
I don't know if it was the candlelight that dazzled my eyes, or if I really used my eyes too much, my eyes were sore, and my vision was blurred.
"You see, I've been staring at the big word for days, and I'm not afraid of being blind." I rubbed my eyes, and I heard Jiang Wuxie's voice with a little disdain and a little ridicule. Looking up, the silver slender figure was leaning on the fragrant concubine couch, eating the love fruit given by the maids while flipping through the case file, his fingers were smart and elegant. What's even more terrifying is that those apples are actually peeled into the shape of hearts, God knows what he's been doing these days.
I couldn't help but blurt out: "Naturally, I can't compare to your leisure." "The pitch was a lot higher than I expected.
The silver-clothed beauty in the compartment didn't care, and with a wave of her hand, a piece of bamboo slip fell flat on my desk. The bamboo slip arrived, and the charming voice also arrived: "On the day of the appointment of Longbei Mountain, the name of Li Pi was in the garrison of the south gate of Yixing close to Longbei Mountain. Of course, there are also the names of several people in Yuwen Valve, which is estimated to be what kind of unsightly goods Yuwen Valve wants to enter, and someone needs to answer or inspect it. According to our inference, well, whether this Li Pi is true...... Who is that, or his subordinates who were originally arranged, in short, there is such a hand, Yuwen Chengbi disappeared and found it late, and now there is no news at all, so that person must have escaped from Yixing City. He held Yuwen Chengbi hostage just in case. ”
Jiang Wuxian propped his chin in one hand, revealing his signature dangerous smile: "Then now the question is, since he has safely left the city, there must be Li Valve to respond, why didn't he let Yuwen Chengbi go." Do you think it is necessary for him to take Yuwen Chengbi hostage all the way to Bingzhou? ”
I listened to Jiang Wuxie's statement and shook my head silently: "You shouldn't hold her hostage. Yuwen Chengbi is just Yu Wenhua and a young girl who doesn't do anything, and she is sacrificed, and holding her hostage can't be used to make Yu Wenhua and a rat trap. When the time came, he was forced to sacrifice his daughter, but it also gave him a good reputation for killing his relatives in righteousness. Besides, Yuwen Chengbi is also a person of Yuwen Valve, it is not impossible to see through Li Valve's hidden pile layout, and there is a risk of intelligence leakage with her. ”
"Boom." Outside the window, thunder rolled, followed by the sound of dripping rain. Jiang Wuxian got up and closed the window, and said as he closed it: "Then, there is another possibility, after he leaves the city, he will directly kill Yuwen Chengbi." ”
A flash of lightning, flashing Jiang Wuxie's face was a little white.
"Boom." In the thunder, I said slowly: "No, build him...... Not. ”
"Yes, not really." Jiang Wuxie's voice was smiling, and he stood in front of the last window to look out the window at the night rain, lightning and thunder. In the dark wind and rain, he himself is like a silver lightning, dangerous, weird, "Then it can only be that his subordinates are still holding Yuwen Chengbi hostage and staying near Yixing City, so why hold it hostage?" Holding her hostage can't threaten Yu Wenji, but ...... Who can it threaten? ”
Who can be threatened by holding Yuwen Chengbi hostage? The rich children in Changzhou who are eager for her? It's impossible, those people are either greedy for Miss Yuwen's beauty and elegance or just to hug the big tree of Yuwen Valve, no matter how you look at it, they don't look like they can be angry and become a red face.
Then, it is her family who wants to threaten.
For some reason, a righteous and awe-inspiring figure appeared in my mind. Black clothes and black armor, blazing fireworks, that person's righteousness and pride.
"Thank you Your Highness for your care, I won't let my sister have trouble, this is also the duty of an older brother."
"Boom." I threw down the bamboo slip in my hand with a "snap" and got up to leave. The dark shadows inside and outside the room moved. The matter is urgent, first send out the private army of the Enchantress, and now I will immediately go and gather the black near here. Dao forces.
"What are you doing here?" Jiang Wuxian didn't look back, still standing in front of the window and watching the storm outside, but the true power spread out around him was enough to stop me.
I couldn't see his expression, I just looked at his long black glow: "Anyway, he saved my life, I can't see him die without saving him." ”
Jiang Wuxian didn't speak or move, but he didn't mean to let me go. I said that the matter was urgent, and I was about to move with enough internal strength, but Jiang Wuxie's true power suddenly relaxed.
"Boom." I almost fell.
"Childe." Jiang Wuxie's scholar pushed the door in. The kid was soaking wet and stumbling, he was the one who had been following Jiang Wuxian to serve the pen and ink, but at this moment he didn't even remember the etiquette of knocking on the door. Waiting for Jiang Wuxian to slowly turn around and look at him faintly, he woke up and hurriedly knelt down, "Childe forgive the sin, Governor Du, please, please go to the county mansion quickly, and discuss with Childe and discuss important matters...... Yuwen, Yuwen Chengdu was killed. ”
