Chapter 285 Responsibility

"Zi'an, I don't understand, why do you think it's too risky? Isn't this an opportunity to find out the truth and bring down the old thief? If it was really the thieves, why not expose them personally? Qin Xiqing frowned and asked.

Zhao Ying also stared at Fang Zi'an and waited for his answer, he had the same question in his heart. In fact, he also hopes to take action with the help of this matter.

Fang Zi'an said, "The idea is good, but ...... In my opinion, we are doing nothing in this matter, and if we don't do it, we will eat ourselves. Since they used such extreme means against me, they must be ready to cover up or even fight back. I'm even a little skeptical...... They deliberately exposed the flaw to attract us to follow this clue to investigate. And they set a trap for us to investigate. I always felt that they were doing it on purpose. Maybe this is a serial plan, please enter the urn and catch it all. ”

Everyone in the pavilion was shocked when they heard this, and looked at Fang Zi'an in shock.

"How so? Do you have any proof? Zhao Ying and Shi Hao asked in unison.

Fang Zi'an frowned and said, "If you really ask me why, I can't say it well, but since the incident happened, I have always had such a bad premonition." If there is any evidence, I think there seems to be some subtle flaws in the matter itself. For example...... Bottles were left at the scene and were found at the scene of both fires. Song Xiang's explanation is that this person is an alcoholic who drinks to strengthen his courage before doing bad things. But it seems to me that it is too casual to leave physical evidence so easily. It's too easy to solve this case. ”

There was silence in the pavilion for a while, and Shi Hao said in a deep voice, "It seems a little strange that you say that. It's a bit strange that a person deliberately set a fire and deliberately left the wine bottle at the scene, and left the wine bottle at the scene after drinking it dry every time. ”

"And there's even the name of the shop that sells wine on the bottom of the bottle, which is like deliberately lighting a lantern in the dark." Qin Xiqing also said softly.

Zhao Ying frowned and said, "In addition, what else?" ”

Fang Zi'an said: "There is also the method and time of arson on the other side. It's so regular that it's hard not to be suspicious. It only took me a few moments to make some comparisons before I suspected that someone had set the fire on purpose. Song Xiang also spent a night discovering the pattern of arson on the other side, and suspected that the arsonist was targeting me and the Yamen of the Defense Army. This gives me the impression that the other party seems to be afraid that I don't know that there is a cat here. After midnight, two fires a day, and physical evidence left behind in the fires, all of which combined to give me a bad premonition. ”

"yes, it does seem weird when you say that. It's like wishing you found someone setting fire, as if you couldn't find the arsonist. There is a problem, there is definitely a problem. Shi Hao stroked his beard and muttered.

Zhao Ying nodded slowly and said, "It's not unreasonable, it's not unreasonable." Is it really a trap for us to drill into? What kind of trap would that be? ”

Fang Zi'an said: "I think they must have made two preparations. If I can't put out the fire, they can deal with me in the name of dereliction of duty. If it doesn't work, it will attract me to investigate, and there will be a back hand waiting for me. Although I don't know what kind of trap they will set in the future, it is always necessary to be more attentive when fighting with Qin Hui and his henchmen. If this matter only involves me personally, it will be fine, and if it involves the prince and Lord Shi, it will be a big deal. So I have to be careful. I asked Song Xiang to investigate, indeed to avoid this risk, in case I fell into their way. Song Xiang found out something, and I can use it as much as I can. ”

Zhao Ying laughed and said, "Okay, thoughtful and thoughtful." Zi'an, you're doing the right thing. This king was a little impulsive before, and the thieves have been about to move recently, which made this king a little angry, so he said those words at the right time. Or as you said, let's hide in the shadows and see what kind of medicine they sell in their gourds. They must not be given an opportunity. ”

Shi Hao nodded and said, "Exactly." Zi'an is indeed thoughtful and worthy of praise. It's just that I can't stand that Song Xiang. This time he's going to have to take the lead, and he's going to be unlucky. But that doesn't work out either. ”

Fang Zi'an said: "Not necessarily. They were dealing with me, not Song Xiang. I check and Song Xiang are two different things, they may not be unfavorable to Song Xiang. Unless Song Xiang really found out something. ”

Qin Xiqing said, "Didn't you say that Song Xiang can lock the range of the arsonist?" Maybe he could really find out something. ”

Fang Zi'an shook his head slowly and said, "If the thief party has a backhand...... Song Xiang was afraid that he would not be able to find anything. They can leave a flaw, and there will be a way to make up for it. Is it so easy to be found out by Song Xiang Shunteng? Are those people stupid? I'm not optimistic that Song Xiang can find out anything. Instead, I wish he couldn't find out anything, because ...... I didn't want to kill him. Although he held on to Xia Liangdong's death, I found that he was not to me, but to things, he was a serious person, but I had a good impression of him. If he dies because of this, I will feel guilty. ”

Shi Hao smiled and said, "Zi'an, Mo Duo thought about it." That is actually Song Xiang's duty, he is the criminal officer of the Lin'an Criminal Division, and this matter is his duty. If something really happens, it's not your fault, it's the responsibility of the thieves. Don't blame yourself. ”

Fang Zi'an smiled, "Of course, I just said that I will feel guilty in my heart, I am not a woman's kindness." Let's hope he gets the best of luck. ”

Zhao Ying said in a deep voice: "However, this matter will look at the development first, and then make calculations." You have to be careful, too. As for what you said about Zhang Xiaoxiang...... I can give it a try, and make a proposal to the emperor, maybe I can delay it for a while. But you said to find out the facts of this case, then you must be careful. ”

Shi Hao also said, "Zi'an, do you want to think about this matter in the long run?" You go check it, it's not right. ”

Fang Zi'an said: "Master Shi, do you have any other candidates?" ”

Shi Hao shook his head and said, "That's not true." ”

Fang Zi'an said, "So, I'm the most suitable." I am now the chief officer of the Yamen of the Defense Army, and I can come and go freely. Take a few days to go quietly and come back quietly. I'm not going to take any chances, and if I can't, I won't force it. If Zhang Xiaoxiang can be saved, there will be one more capable general by the prince's side in the future. I think this person is not afraid of the Qin Party, dares to act and speak, is talented and highly learned, and will be a capable person to assist the prince in the future. If it succeeds, it will not only blow the arrogance of the old thief, but also boost the morale of the officials who oppose the thief party in the DPRK and China, and protect a talent in the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Well said, this king agrees with you to investigate. If it succeeds, it is a great achievement. Zhao Ying said loudly.

……

It was getting dark, and lanterns were hung in the pavilion. Zhao Ying and Shi Hao had already left, leaving only Fang Zi'an and Qin Xiqing sitting opposite each other.

Qin Xiqing's slender fingers flew up and down, and she peeled a chilled pear for Fang Zi'an with a paper knife and handed it to Fang Zi'an, "Come, moisten your throat, I see that your eyes are red, and your voice is a little hoarse, I'm afraid you've stayed up late these days." Eat a pear to clear the fire. ”

Fang Zi'an took it and said with a smile, "How can I eat such a big duck pear?" Let's divide the meal. ”

Qin Xiqing said angrily: "How can you eat pears separately? Wouldn't that be a 'separation'? ”

Fang Zi'an was stunned and said with a smile, "There are so many exquisitenesses." But the thing is, I don't want to be separated from you. ”

Fang Zi'an took a bite of the pear, only to feel that it was bright and crisp, full of sweet juice, and melted in his mouth. praised "It's delicious, what kind of pear is this, why is it so delicious?" ”

Qin Xiqing said with a smile: "This is Dangshan's tribute pear, which is naturally delicious." Do you know how hard it is to get this pear? Dangshan is in Huaibei, which is already the territory of the Jin people. Someone risked his life to smuggle a shipload of pears into Lin'an. I managed to get two boxes. ”

Fang Zi'an stopped biting and sighed softly.

Qin Xiqing said, "What? ”

Fang Zi'an said, "The great rivers and mountains have fallen into the hands of the Jin people." It's eating a pear, and it's also a thrilling thing. It's really panicked to think about it. ”

Qin Xiqing smiled, "Blame me for talking too much, I won't say it." ”

Fang Zi'an shook his head and said, "It's not a matter of whether you say it or not, the facts are there." I've been thinking about these things a lot lately. We really can't act as if none of this exists. If you think about it, it turns out that these pears were all eaten by my Great Song people, and now they are all in the stomachs of the Jin people. We people in the Great Song Dynasty want to eat it and have to smuggle it in, risking our lives, and if we don't do it, we have to lose our heads, how bad it is. ”

Qin Xiqing stared at Fang Zi'an and said, "Zi'an seems to have changed, you didn't care about these things before." ”

Fang Zi'an said, "Yes, I really didn't care about these things before, but now I have more and more sense of responsibility." Many of the people around me are people who have crossed to the south, and if the rivers and mountains are gone, these people will never be able to return to their hometowns. Think about the people of the Great Song Dynasty who were under the iron hooves of the Jin people, they were even more bitter. They look forward to the imperial court recovering the lost territory every day, but year after year, the imperial court has no such idea at all, how disappointed they should be. The bereaved people are in tears, and the south looks at the king for another year. ”

Qin Xiqing stretched out her hand to hold Fang Zi'an's hand, and said softly, "Don't think about it, I understand your thoughts, and I am also the one who fled to Lin'an." But there's no urgency. ”

Fang Zi'an said, "I know, I'm just a little uncomfortable sometimes. I know there's no urgency, but I can't ignore these things. The more I think about these things, the more I hope to help the prince and wipe out Qin Hui and his traitors. That's not as simple as Mr. Zhou, for Zhang's control, and for the reputation of your father and brother. ”

Qin Xiqing nodded and said, "Zi'an, I know that you are not a thing in the pool, and you will definitely do something great in the future." Take your time and don't rush. No matter what you want to do, Xiqing is there for you. ”

Fang Zi'an smiled and nodded, reached out and stroked Qin Xiqing's hair, and said with a smile, "What am I doing here?" How did I feel emotional. I plan to go to Wuhu County as soon as possible and do something for Zhang Xiaoxiang's affairs, don't you give me some encouragement and wish me a smooth journey? ”

Qin Xiqing said softly, "I wish Fang Lang a smooth journey, and things will go smoothly." ”

Fang Zi'an smiled: "Don't you have a fragrant kiss?" ”

Qin Xiqing glared at Fang Zi'an, got up and extinguished the lantern on the pillar, turned around and threw herself into Fang Zi'an's arms, letting Fang Zi'an kiss and caress him, and fell in love with him.
