Chapter 161: There is a way to steal

Wen Ziqi was stunned when he heard this, although he had known each other for a short time, but judging by his words and deeds, he should not be such a vulgar person, why would he be so disgusted with this escaped woman, after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly nodded and said, "Could it be that the escaped woman is also Xiliang's fine work?" ”

Tao Tian, who was gritting his teeth, didn't think about it when he heard this, so he spoke: "Of course it is, it's just that those rice buckets don't know the truth, thinking that he is an innocent person!" Speaking of this, he seemed to feel that the people present were all officialdom, so he turned the conversation and said with a smile: "If they are as smart as Lord Wen, how can I be reduced to being held in the hands of others!" ”

Seeing that it was really as he guessed, Wen Ziqi took a long breath, shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "Brother Tao, is this praising me?" ”

Perhaps Tao Tian was upright, and he didn't think of what he meant by this, so he nodded and said: "That's it, it's just a matter of things, although I lost today, but I worship my heart." Speaking of this, he glanced back at Huo Xiao and said softly: "What's more, what you just said, I'm not deaf." ”

Everyone was shocked by his remarks, and they were shocked that the meaning of gratitude in his words was actually said in this tone. Nangong Feifei even laughed dryly, and quipped: "If you don't know that your nature is not bad, the barb in what you said will make people almost angry!" ”

When Wen Ziqi heard this, he felt that what Nangong Feifei said was a little inappropriate, so he hurriedly interrupted: "Then how did you two get caught, this handle won't be these lives." ”

It may be that he had been drooling before, and after saying a lot of words at this time, Tao Tian picked up the tea cup in front of Huo Xiao and drank it all.

After drinking, he put the teacup in his hand, and then hugged his fist at Wen Ziqi and said, "Lord Wen, I don't know if you have heard of the organization of Fengming Pavilion?" ”

Wen Ziqi pondered for a while, and after confirming that he hadn't heard it, he shook his head and said calmly: "I have never heard of it, I would like to hear it in detail." ”

Hearing these remarks, Tao Tian was stunned for a moment and muttered, "I haven't heard of it!" Then he changed his words and said: "At that time, my husband and wife were in Youzhou, and somehow provoked this organization, and later after the East Window incident, my husband and wife hid here. Ready..."Before he finished speaking, he seemed to realize that the matter was not honorable, and stopped abruptly.

Wen Ziqi didn't take this kind of irrelevant thing to heart, he didn't hear it, and then asked: "Then what did she use to blackmail you and force you to commit it?" ”

Tao Tian and Huo Xiao, who have always been open-minded and calm, heard Wen Ziqi ask this, and they all lowered their heads silently, as if avoiding this question.

Wen Ziqi frowned slightly when he saw this, and turned his face to glance at Qin Keqing, according to his judgment, since Qin Keqing could call the names of these two people, he might know some secrets.

Qin Keqing, who was stroking the rim of the cup with his hand, saw Wen Ziqi cast his gaze, so he smiled and said, "The reason why the two of them were firmly held in the palm of their hands and sent was because of the eighth person. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned, Wen Ziqi was surprised that Qin Keqing really knew the reason, and Tao Tian Huo Xiao was surprised, how could this Lord Qin in front of him know about it.

Seeing that everyone cast strange eyes, Qin Keqing twisted his hair, stopped his gaze on Tao Tian, and said lightly: "Because I was also investigating a case back then, and the suspect was the eighth person who was killed!" ”

Hearing this, Tao Tian's eyes widened in surprise, and he asked with a puzzled expression: "Eight years ago, Lord Qin should not have been an adult, how could he..."

The words were not finished, but the smart people knew the meaning as soon as they heard it, looking at his appearance, Qin Keqing's skin was white and beautiful, fat was like cream, and he was in his early twenties at most.

And what Tao Tian said was eight years ago, if he deduced, how could a little girl who was only twelve or thirteen years old at that time be a person of officialdom. Just when he couldn't think about it, Qin Keqing laughed coquettishly in his ears.

"Don't look at my age, but I've been in the officialdom for many years, and the eighth person you killed eight years ago was my informant, which means that he is actually from the government."

Tao Tian shook his head with a wry smile, sighed helplessly and said, "Of course I know that he is from the government, and it is precisely because of this that I will be coerced. ”

Speaking of this, he patted Huo Xiao's shoulder and comforted: "For so many years, you and I have been hiding in Tibet, and today is an end." After saying that, he knelt down in front of Qin Keqing and confessed: "Lord Qin, I killed the person back then, and it has nothing to do with Xiaomei, if you want to take revenge, just take my life." ”

When Qin Keqing heard this, he said happily: "Do you want to do things by one person?" As he spoke, he picked up the teapot and made himself another cup of tea.

Nangong Feifei, who had been sitting next to her silently, looked at her calm and calm appearance, shook her head with a chuckle, and muttered, "This look is really just right, making people feel that you are playing tricks at a glance." ”

Tao Tian, who was kneeling on the ground, naturally heard Nangong Feifei's words, but he didn't understand what he meant by this, what was called pretentiousness. When he was puzzled, he heard Qin Keqing sneer and said, "Tell me, how did you get the second handle by the people of the Fengming Pavilion." ”

Seeing that the secret that he had buried in his heart for many years was announced in front of everyone. Although there was unwillingness in his heart, he respectfully replied, "Returning to the adult, because she told me that the person was from the government, and then I inquired that this person did not appear on the list of killed, I thought what she said should be true." ”

Hearing this, Qin Keqing's originally smiling face was covered with frost for a moment, with a trace of light in his eyes, and he said coldly, and continued.

Tao Tian, who was kneeling on the ground, thought that Qin Keqing wanted to avenge the person who had already died and died, so his words were cold. He sighed and said slowly: "Lord Hui, this matter has been several years ago, please allow the grass people to think about it a little." ”

Before the words landed, he saw Tao Tian's eyebrows tightly twisted together, as if he was trying to recall the past, and after a long time, his lips moved frequently, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to speak.

Wen Ziqi, who had been staring at him quietly, quickly asked after discovering his objection: "You don't know how to say it?" There are still other concerns. ”

If he didn't have any concerns, he was obviously lying and trying to deceive, but now when he heard Qin Keqing ask like this, he hurriedly shook his head like a rattle and denied: "Back to the adult, the little one has no worries, but I don't know where to start?" ”

Hearing this, Qin Keqing's expression froze slightly, and then said lightly: "Since you don't know how to say it, then only I will ask you to answer." When he said this, as if he had thought of something, he changed his words and said in a solemn tone: "If you say it yourself, it is a confession, and if I ask you, it becomes an interrogation, which is fundamentally different." ”

Tao Tian, who had already put life and death aside, heard Qin Keqing's remarks, and immediately laughed dryly and said: "Confess independently, is there any difference between the results of the interrogation and me?" Speaking of this, he glanced back at Huo Xiao, and said in a soft tone: "As long as their mother and son are safe, nothing else matters to me." ”

Nangong Feifei, who was sitting at the table with her cheek in her hand, said with a spring breeze on her face after hearing this: "In an instant, he became willing to sacrifice his life for his wife and children, did you act it on purpose?" I still really think so. ”

originally thought that Tao Tian might be furious after hearing these words, but what Nangong Feifei didn't expect was that Tao Tian didn't refute, just smiled lightly, and his eyes were full of tenderness.

"Huh," Nangong Feifei was slightly stunned, and said with a solemn expression: "It seems that this is serious, I can't think of it..."

Before she could finish speaking, Qin Keqing stretched out his hand to cut him off, and said coquettishly: "Feifei, don't mess around, I want to confirm one thing." Without waiting for Nangong Feifei to understand, he listened to Tao Tian's body and asked, "Where did you meet that man back then?" ”

"Orchid Restaurant!" Tao Tianxiang opened his mouth without thinking about it, as if the name was already in his mouth.

Qin Keqing nodded and muttered, "At that time, the two of us did make an appointment to meet at the Orchid Wine Shop, which should not be wrong. Did you notice anything unusual at the time? ”

"Strange?" Tao Tian didn't seem to expect that Qin Keqing would continue to ask, so he twisted his eyebrows together, trying his best to recall the emotions of the day, and after a long time, as if he thought of something, he hurriedly said: "At that time, he was dancing with a group of dancers. ”

In the wine shop, there are naturally waitresses who accompany the wine, and it is not strange to drink to the music and dance with high spirits, but Tao Tian actually felt strange, which made Qin Keqing a little unable to figure it out, so he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Dancing?" Why do you find it strange? Could it be that he...."

Halfway through the words, I found that the next half of the sentence was a bit indecent for her to be said by a woman, so she changed her words, "Did he do anything excessive?" ”

Tao Tian didn't seem to pay attention to Qin Keqing's expression, so he waved his hand and said, "If you drink too much in the wine shop, you will naturally get entangled with the maid, but it is because he didn't entangle me that I feel weird." ”

Listening to his analysis, Qin Keqing nodded suddenly and said lightly: "It turns out that it is because you are too serious, so you have aroused your suspicion." ”

Hearing her say this, Tao Tian said disapprerovingly: "That's natural, how can you go to a wine shop and look around seriously!" It's like a red bean in a pot of porridge. ”

Qin Keqing sighed, as if he didn't agree with what Tao Tian said, but he didn't know how to refute it, so he pretended not to understand, and hurriedly asked: "Isn't it a bit too hasty to lure him to kill him elsewhere just by dancing!" ”

Hearing this, Tao Tian seemed to have suffered a great grievance, and immediately raised his head and defended: "Although I kill people like hemp, I will never do anything to kill people."

Speaking of this, he realized that he had indeed accidentally injured a good person, so he hurriedly stopped talking.

Huo Xiao, who had been silent, saw Tao Tian like this, so he said something to help: "Lord Qin, Lord Wen, you two may not know, the shopkeeper of the orchid wine shop is not a good stubble, and he will do everything that lacks virtue in buying and selling news." ”

Hearing Huo Xiao say this, Qin Keqing's eyes flashed with a fierce color, although it was a short moment, it was still discovered by Nangong Feifei, who was sitting opposite the side.

For Nangong Feifei, Qin Keqing is like an eldest sister, there are some things between the two that don't need to be said at all, they know what the other party thinks, and now looking at her appearance, they know that there must be something hidden in it.

But after thinking about it, this was definitely not the time to ask, so he resisted the doubts in his heart, stopped his gaze on Huo Xiao's body, and asked, "What do you mean, that orchid wine shop is a gathering place for intelligence!" ”

When Tao Tian mentioned the orchid wine shop just now, she guessed that this wine shop was very likely to be a place for news trafficking, and now when she heard Huo Xiao say this, she was even more convinced of her guess.

Things were really as she guessed, after Huo Xiao heard her words, he nodded slowly and said: "The girl is right, that orchid wine shop is a place where you can buy anything as long as you pay for it, for example, if you want to know how many illegitimate children there are in the prefect of Youzhou, as long as the price is right, the news you want will be presented to you the next day." ”

Wen Ziqi, who was leaning on the table, heard this, as if he thought of something, so he raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "So the two of you have also traded with him?" After that, he glanced at Qin Keqing, who seemed to be calm.

Perhaps it was Tao Tian, who had always been mindful of what he had just said, smiled bitterly and nodded, "If it weren't for the news that I bought from him, how would the two of us have the ability to find out so many details." ”

As if he had already guessed that this was the result, Wen Ziqi continued without thinking about it: "I haven't interrupted you before, I'm thinking about something, I'm telling you now, maybe I can solve your doubts." ”

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, Tao Tian did not mention what happened to him from beginning to end, and was full of doubts, but now he suddenly heard that Wen Ziqi actually took the initiative to help solve his doubts. Qin Keqing looked dazed and said in surprise: "Doubtful? What doubts did he have! ”

Wen Ziqi didn't answer him directly, but smiled, moved his gaze to Tao Tian and pretended to be profound: "Brother Tao, did I say something wrong?" ”

The corners of Tao Tian's mouth twitched slightly, and he slowly lowered his head and said, "Does Lord Wen know why I can't let go of it?" ”

"Isn't it okay for you to wait until I'm done talking about this thing?" Wen Ziqi smiled lightly and said in a deep voice: "What you have always cared about is not the female concubine who escaped, but the official person you killed by mistake." ”

As soon as these words came out, Tao Tian and Huo Xiao were both stunned in place, and after the husband and wife glanced at each other, they both nodded solemnly, Tao Tian sighed and muttered, "Is there anything else you don't know?" ”

Seeing that he had not guessed wrong, Wen Ziqi glanced at Qin Keqing, who was smug and wide-eyed, and raised his voice: "Actually, as long as you calm down and think about it, the secret is not too difficult." ”

Speaking of this, Wen Ziqi deliberately paused, coughed lightly twice, and continued: "Assuming that all these fine works killed by Tao Tian are people from the same organization or gang, what do you guess will happen to the person in charge of this organization or gang? ”

Hearing such a question, Nangong Feifei laughed lightly and quipped: "There is revenge, and if there is revenge, of course it is to find trouble with him or kill people." Everyone nodded in agreement with Nangong Feifei's statement.

Wen Ziqi saw that everyone was in the same voice, so he said with a smile: "It seems that everyone thinks the same, so I will continue to ask everyone, what if this organization or gang cannot be known to outsiders at all, or cannot appear in front of the world at all?" ”
