But it was said that on this day, Zhao Cheng patted the Rongguo Mansion in Malaysia, but he didn't enter the gate, but only found the small door of Lixiangyuan and patted the knocker. After a while, a little brother came out, and Zhao admitted that it was the one who came to report the case to the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division on the day of the big trouble in the Nan'an Palace, and he hurriedly smiled and arched his hand: "Little brother, is the third master of your family here?" ”

That kid is Lan Xiang, he said: "I'm doing real work with Mr. Xiyang, Mr. wait, I'll report it." So he ran inside to deliver the letter.

Jia Cong, Liu Feng and others were studying the new nautical chart sent by Wang Ziteng a few days ago in the study, and when they heard the news, they hurriedly went out to welcome him in. Because the hall is now a school, Li Rende and his brothers are lecturing around the physics equipment, so they led him to the study.

Zhao Chengzan said: "The third master has a lot of books here. ”

Jia Cong said proudly: "There are all kinds of books!" There are serious books of four books and five classics and books to play with! ”

Zhao Cheng said a few more polite words, and said, "Xia Guan has something to ask the third master for help right now. Dare to ask the third master if you have heard of the Kyoto Avengers? ”

Jia Cong said: "I know, it's the one who beat Brother Rong of Dongfu." ”

Zhao Cheng said with a smile: "Don't blame the third master, now someone in Guidong Mansion who followed Uncle Rong that day mentioned that among the group of people wearing Journey to the West masks, some people's voices and figures are somewhat similar to the third master." While speaking, he looked at Jia Cong.

Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "Did they follow Brother Rong a few years ago?" ”

Zhao Chengdao: "This subordinate has never asked. ”

Jia Cong couldn't help but dance and said: "A few years ago, I also led people to fight with Brother Rong once, his people are not opponents at all, and all I brought with me are dart masters!" Do you know the dart master? He only leads a group of ordinary people, not even thugs! It was about the first time in his life that he was beaten up, and we were beaten into pigs' heads! If you go to Ningguo Mansion to inquire, they all know about it. ”

The corners of Zhao Cheng's mouth twitched, not knowing how to respond.

Jia Cong continued: "That time he offended my friend, and I led people to kill him. Afterwards, I didn't sue anyone if I won, and he lost the battle and had the face to sue him! He's older than me! Don't you think it's a shame that he can't beat me? Then he came to me to complain, and my father praised me, saying that I had the style of a father. ”

Zhao Chengyi became more and more speechless, just waiting to see what he wanted to say.

Jia Cong spread his hands: "Therefore, if I want to beat him up again, I won't wear a mask." I'm not a Sven. I even beat Concubine Nan'an, what is he. Or the nephew of the family. ”

Zhao Cheng seemed to have some truth when he heard it, but it was too coincidental that everything was put together in one place, and he couldn't let go of his suspicions, so he smiled temporarily: "I'm afraid that the lower officials are not thoughtful and presumptuous." ”

Jia Cong smiled and said, "Do you really care about this kind of case of fighting?" I'm just going to be a joke for everyone. ”

Zhao Cheng sighed: "It's not just this. There is also an important case that I am afraid has a lot to do with this group of Avengers. ”

Jia Cong said casually: "It's just a few gangsters who help the gentlemen fight, what big things can they do." ”

Zhao Cheng's eyes lit up: "The third master knows who they are?" ”

Jia Cong blinked: "How do I know?" ”

Zhao Chengdao: "How do you know that they are outlaws?" ”

Jia Cong said: "They themselves say that anyone dares to beat them, listen to the people who follow Brother Rong." Haven't you heard of Lord Zhao? ”

Zhao Cheng arched his hand: "Third master, this matter is really tricky, if the third master knows some clues, I hope to give advice." ”

Jia Cong said sincerely: "I really don't know. I just think that Brother Rong cuckolding people and making people beat them up is a very common little thing in the market, and the people who do this don't have much ability to think about it, otherwise why don't you do something serious? Most of them are idlers who don't want to make a living honestly, relying on their youth and strength to do this. ”

Zhao Cheng couldn't refute it for a while, so he had to start another conversation: "There is some truth in it." It's just that now they are working on another case that is very important. ”

Jia Cong glanced at him: "Don't sue me for that other case, I don't want to know." ”

Zhao Cheng smiled: "It's just a casual mention." ”

Jia Cong snorted: "Don't tell me Hengzhu." I'm just a normal kid, not that smart. Last time, the disappearance of the third master of the Xie family went directly to the palace, and I knew that the water was so deep, so I didn't help Brother Xie. He said triumphantly, "Although I am smart, I can't help you solve the case in vain." I have no reluctance. As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Cheng suddenly felt that he mistakenly thought that he couldn't solve the case and came to him for help, so he couldn't help but laugh, and his suspicion was reduced by a few points. The two of them talked nonsense for a long time, and Zhao Cheng finally didn't see any suspicions, so he had to leave.

As soon as he went out on his front foot, Jia Cong immediately called his son Liu Feng and Wu Xiaoxi inside, and said, "Lord Zhao is here to test, and Jiang Zirong can't make Jiang Zirong go wrong, or make the public suspicious." ”

Liu Feng thought for a while: "We don't have any flaws. ”

Jia Cong said: "What do you think he will do next?" ”

Liu Feng said: "Jiang Zirong is not a backbone, if he is taken by people, it is very easy to confess." Now it only depends on whether Zhao Cheng dares to move him. In my opinion, this Lord Zhao is a timid and fearful person, and he may not be willing to act rashly. ”

Xiaoxi said: "If he doesn't have evidence, he won't offend the Plains Marquis Mansion for no reason." The most important thing is that he has to give an explanation to the Zhenguo Mansion. Either frame it to innocent people who have nothing to do with it, or hint to the Zhenguo Mansion, only saying that he has no evidence, and let the Zhenguo Mansion deal with Jiang Zirong. If it is the latter, Jiang Zirong will fall into the hands of the Zhenguo Mansion, which will be the most disadvantageous to us. ”

Jia Cong thought for a while and sighed: "Then I can only let the Zhenguo Mansion dare not provoke Jiang Zirong for the time being." ”

So he wrote a letter to Huo Sheng, the new king of Nan'an County, begging him to try to get along with Jiang Zirong and make friends at first sight. It was to make someone lend Yuan Chun the opportunity to send things to her little girl Lu Qi, and let Lu Qi go back to Nan'an Wangfu when she went home to see her parents.

Huo Sheng was inexplicable, but he never refuted Jia Cong's face, and met Jiang Zirong on the street with sincerity and falsehood, and invited him to the palace to play a few times. Where did Jiang Zirong think that he could win the eyes of the prince? Only when his younger brother avenged his grievances in the spirit of heaven and blessed himself, he became more and more determined to follow the right path.

Fortunately, Huo Sheng cooperated quickly. Zhao Chengwei really thought about secretly stabbing Jiang Zirong to the Zhenguo Mansion, and wanted to get some evidence to prevaricate the Ping'an Hou Mansion in the future, so he delayed for a few days. Unexpectedly, the person he sent to keep an eye on happened to see Jiang Zirong meet the prince of Nan'an, and then saw that Huo Sheng had invited Jiang Zirong to come over three times in just ten days, and had also gone to Jiang's house to see Jiang's mother in person, so he hesitated again. He has also seen a lot of these high-ranking families, and it doesn't matter much to Niu Jiyao like Niu Jiyao. Once there is a disturbance in the coming day, if the prince of Nan'an really comes forward to support Jiang Zirong, the Niu family will confess himself and get out. As for Jia Cong, although he fooled him for a while, there were too many doubts. Zhao Cheng thought about it afterwards and didn't dare to believe him seriously. Jia Cong is becoming more and more difficult to provoke - it is said that Zhao Cheng has no evidence in his hands, even if there is, this young master has dealings with too many princes, and if Niu Jiyao is his hand, according to the way of the world today, he will die in vain. Nai sighed: "It's not easy to be a Beijing official......"

After a few more days, there were idlers on the street who spread the word that Zhao Cheng had already captured the murderer of Niu Siye.

It turned out that the man was a river and ocean thief, who roamed the green forest in his early years, and did everything he did with bandits and bandits, and there were no fewer lives in his hands. Because there were many people who were offended outside, he came to Beijing and opened a small shop to sell some groceries, wanting to rely on the dragon's qi to restrain the murderous spirit. Lord Zhao Cheng already knew his details, because he saw that he was quite peaceful, he didn't cause trouble when no one messed with him, and there was no evidence of his crime, so he just ordered people to keep an eye on him. Now seeing that Niu Siye died in the arrow sleeve, he suddenly remembered that this person's whole family was known for their hidden weapons in the green forest, and he suspected that this person had committed the crime, so he sent someone to break into his house at night to take it and take it back to the yamen to ask, and he really confessed. It turned out that he once had a quarrel with Niu Siye on the street, and he always held a grudge. That day, he went out to eat and drink, and happened to catch a glimpse of Niu Siye riding by, and inquired about people, it turned out that he was going to Ningguo Mansion to mourn, so he followed all the way, and guarded Niu Siye to come out of that mansion and poisoned him in the middle of the road.

Jia Cong was stunned when he heard this, looked at Wu Xiaoxi and said, "It's really as you said, you have found someone to blame." ”

Wu Xiaoxi said: "Niu Jiyao's case is because none of the parties involved can be provoked by Zhao Cheng, what else can he do except frame it for ordinary people?" Yin frowned, "It's just that this person is innocent." ”

Jia Cong sighed: "I want to save him, but how to do it?" ”

They were discussing it, when Lan Xiang came in and replied, "There is a child outside the door who has taken a letter to see the third master. ”

Jia Cong said annoyedly: "Where did you come from with all these things! Who provoked another child? ”

Lan Xiang said: "He said that he was the nephew of the Yang guard next to Master Lin. ”

Jia Cong was overjoyed: "Please come in quickly!" Does Brother Yang Song still have a nephew? I've never heard him talk about it. ”

At one moment the boy came in, only four or five years old, with a straight face, and looked at them on their knees. Mi'er walked over to help him up, and he held the letter above his head with both hands: "Boy Yang An, ask the third master to save my father." ”

The crowd was taken aback. Mi'er respected Yang Song very much, and asked urgently: "What's wrong with Brother Yang?" ”

Jia Cong hurriedly took the letter, opened it and looked at it, and sure enough, it was written by Yang Song. It turned out that his younger brother Yang Heng went to Beijing to make a living, so there were many nobles in the land, so he was entrusted to take care of one or two. The date in the letter turned out to be two years ago.

Na Yang An said: "This letter was written by the uncle in Yangzhou, let us come to see us when we arrive in Beijing." My father said that he should not bother the third master for no reason. Uncle once said that everything in Beijing would fall from the sky, and it turned out to be true! He wiped his tears and said, "In the middle of the night yesterday, a group of officers and soldiers suddenly surrounded our house, saying that our Yuzhang Yang family has always been good at hidden weapons, and there must have been a murder that my father did, so I couldn't help but say that my father was arrested!" ”

The room suddenly felt like a thunderbolt from the sky. No need to ask, the Jiangyang thief who let Zhao Cheng take the blame is Yang Song's younger brother!

After being quiet for a long time, Jia Cong smiled bitterly: "God really has long eyes, don't cheat people casually." Whoever dug the pit will finally have to fill it. ”

Mi'er pulled Yang An into his arms, touched the top of his head and said, "Don't be afraid, the court can't mess around with the trial, let's try to save your father." ”

Yang An has been frightened since last night. Seeing that his father was taken away, no one asked him when he cried, and when he was tired of crying, he sat in a daze in the dark house until dawn. After that, he didn't eat anything, he took out the uncle's letter from under the mattress, and stumbled to find Rongguo's mansion. Fortunately, the doorman of Rongguo Mansion heard him say that he didn't dare not report it to Jia Cong, so he let him in. At this time, he let his son hold him in a bad situation, and when he heard him say that he wanted to save his father, he immediately cried "wow".

Mi'er was busy patting him and coaxing, and he stopped crying after he had vented for a long time. Jia Cong shouted red. Sleeve came in and led him to wash his face and eat something.

Everyone was silent for a moment, and Liu Feng said, "Don't panic, everyone. Yang Heng is an old Jianghu, since he knows that his son has Yang Guard's letter in his hand, he wants to know what to do to make himself suffer less. ”

Jia Cong was a little confused, and walked around the room: "How to be good, I don't know where to start." ”

Wu Xiaoxi said: "It's good to send someone to listen first, and see what Second Master Yang said in the Five Cities Terracotta Division." ”

Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "What you say, it doesn't matter at all!" Confessions can also be changed. If it weren't for our doing, we could have been blatant. Zhao Cheng was already suspicious. ”

Liu Feng said: "We could have been blatant. Nai Dao, "Third master, I have three strategies. ”

Jia Cong smiled bitterly and said, "Great Army Division! Don't sell it, there's a frightened kid out there. ”

Liu Feng stretched out a finger: "The best policy, because Lord Lin has a deep friendship with Lord Xian, you can throw this matter to his old man." If he came forward, Zhao Cheng would be like an ant, not even daring to speak. ”

Jia Cong blinked: "What else?" ”

"The middle strategy is to ask the master to come forward, and Rongguo Mansion blatantly fights a lawsuit for Yang Erye. The more we don't avoid suspicion, the more Lord Zhao doesn't dare to be suspicious. The next strategy is to smash the anti-prison. After saying that, he arched his hand, "According to the view of the below, the next policy is the best." ”

When everyone tried to analyze and discuss which strategy was better, they all blocked him, but they looked at him: "Why? ”

Liu Feng said with a smile: "Lord Zhao is quite timid and cautious, no one dares to provoke him, and he doesn't dare to investigate the root cause in case of trouble." Uncle Yang is Lord Lin's guard. ”

Lin Ruhai is the saint's henchman, Yang Song is Lin Ruhai's guard, Yang Heng is Yang Song's younger brother, Yang Heng suddenly entered Beijing but was silent, and Yang Heng mysteriously disappeared from prison.

Jia Cong tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Liu Feng, you are getting more and more ghosts!" ”

Liu Feng then made a gesture to him: "Thank you for your praise." "Jia Cong, the bear child of the Red Mansion
