Volume 1 Mountains and Rivers Change Hands Chapter 4 Desolate Chang'an Road 14 since ancient times

Zhang Shixing's face turned red, at this moment he had clearly seen where Wang Shunhe was sitting, and he was not afraid that he would make a move, so he let go of his wrist and said: "Mr. Qin, you will never return, when the hospital is named, you are missing, no one is alive, no corpse is dead, so I am ordered by the constitution to come to investigate, and I must give an explanation." ”

Wang Shun and Hehe smiled and said, "It's really going to kill them all." People are not seen from your hands, so naturally you can find them, Song Zhong is really good to you. ”

Wang Shunhe's meaning is very clear, if he sends someone else to find out what is good, Zhang Shixing will definitely die. Zhang Shixing himself knew that Song Zhong was his uncle, so he would naturally fill in the gaps for him, but he didn't want others to know about this, so he came alone on this trip.

Zhang Shixing did not answer Wang Shunhe's tentative words, but thanked Wang Shunhe and said: "Thank you Mr. Qin for your careful diagnosis and treatment in Huai'an Mansion that day, otherwise it would be my brother who died today." I am also a person who knows how to repay the kindness, to tell the truth, there have been so many people in the Tai Hospital who have been martyred for the prince, there is not much more than you, and there is no less person than you, but this matter must be concluded. ”

Wang Shunhe was silent for a moment and asked, "Brother, you can show me the way." ”

Before coming here, Zhang Shixing already had a case in the abdomen, so he said calmly: "Mr. Qin, you ask your family to go to the river, Caoyun, and county government, regardless of which family goes to claim the body of a drowned person, they will close the case and give me a reply, and I will reply to the constitution, and the matter will be revealed." It's just that Mr. Qin is going to be incognito for the rest of his life. ”

Wang Shunhe patted Zhang Shixing's shoulder and said, "Brother, you are really a benevolent and righteous person, I have made you a friend." After I dived into the water and absconded that day, I didn't think about your method, but I still thought that if the prince was okay after this year, I would go back to the Tai Hospital, make up a lie, and get over. Who knew that it was a nightmare that came true, and all the colleagues in the hospital died, and only I escaped and survived. It's a pity, I will never see the hand-planted begonia tree in my yard in the future. ”

After saying that, he sighed heavily, sounding infinitely desolate.

Zhang Shixing asked, "Then why did Mr. Qin jump into the water and escape that day?" This is a big question that has been haunting his heart for many days, and he urgently needs Wang Shunhe to give an answer.

Wang Shunhe burst out of his mouth word by word: "The prince has food poisoning." ”

As soon as these words came out, it was really like a thunderbolt in the head, Zhang Shixing was stunned, he couldn't believe his ears, so he asked rhetorically: "Really? What kind of poison did the prince get? ”

Wang Shunhe nodded, then shook his head, and said bitterly: "I really don't know what poison it is, but the prince's vomiting and diarrhea are all caused by this poison." I have carefully asked you close attendants, the prince has been eating and drinking as usual all the way, and has not eaten anything strange, that must be someone deliberately poisoned, and the one who can poison the prince's diet must be someone close to him, and the prince is already weak, coupled with the long journey, fatigue and cold, so his illness is only three points certain. If we don't get treated, we doctors will be punished, and if I say that someone has poisoned him, and there is no evidence, I don't want to be implicated, so I have to escape. ”

Zhang Shixing asked again: "Then you say Li Bai again, what do you mean by what should be painted?" ”

Wang Shunhe said: "When Tu is today's Taiping Mansion, the prince was born here, and Li Bai also drowned here, I am implying that your prince is going to die, and it is not a good death, so let you prepare early." ”

Zhang Shixing knocked his head and said, "I'm really stupid, I don't know how hard Mr. is." ”

Wang Shunhe said: "I see that you have a pure temperament and a benevolent heart, so I want to help you." After today, you and I will be friends of life and death, sharing blessings and difficulties. ”

Zhang Shixing finally let go of his hostility, this time it was his true feelings, he held Wang Shunhe's hand tightly, and said excitedly: "Good brother, you and I share good and bad." ”

The horse's hooves were obtained, and in the dark night, the carriage was moving slowly and smoothly as usual, which showed that the driver was skillful.

After the conversation was finished and the matter was done, Zhang Shixing was about to get out of the car and said to Wang Shunhe: "Brother, you and I will say goodbye, take care." I got off the boat in Shao Bobei and prepared to return to Beijing by water. ”

Wang Shunhe grabbed him and said: "Brother, I just went back to Yangzhou, take you by the way, my friend in Yangzhou has a boat to Beijing every day, you can take his boat back." Shao Bo's boatman, you don't care, I'll send someone to deal with it. ”

Zhang Shixing thanked him and said, "Then there is Brother Lao." ”

Wang Shunhe pretended to be angry and said: "You and I are brothers in life and death, it is a bit strange to say these words. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Shixing was quite moved, he thought for a while, took out the book in his arms, and said to Wang Shunhe: "Brother Qin, I got a book by chance, but I am shallow and don't know what it means, you can help me take a look." ”

Wang Shunhe took out a fire fold from his pocket, shook it for a while, and then it lit up, took the book, looked at it slightly, and said, "This is Mongolian writing, I don't recognize it." After that, blow out the fire and return the book to Zhang Shixing.

Zhang Shixing was slightly disappointed, put the book back in his arms, and said to himself: "Where did you find such a person to translate this book?" ”

Wang Shunhe said strangely: "What's so difficult about this, there are so many literati and scholars in Jingshi, are you still worried that you can't find someone to translate this book?" ”

Zhang Shixing was slightly embarrassed and said: "This book is unsightly, and I don't want others to know about it." ”

Wang Shunhe asked, "Is it related to the crown prince?" ”

Zhang Shixing was a little flustered, and hurriedly said: "No, no, I bought it from someone else by chance, and it has nothing to do with the prince." ”

Wang Shunhe was a little unhappy and complained: "Brother, can't you still believe me? Who sells books to you, and doesn't tell you what to do, and what do you do with buying a book you don't understand? ”

Zhang Shixing couldn't say that Tana asked him to bring this book to Guanyinnu, and he had to implicate too much, so he had to make up a set of lies temporarily, and said: "The man said that although this book is in Mongolian, it records a set of profound martial arts, and the younger brother is a martial artist, and he is as fond of martial arts, so he bought it on the spot, and was going to find someone to translate it, and carefully refer to it in private, so he didn't want others to know." ”

Wang Shunhe listened to what he said, although he could justify himself, but there were many flaws in his heart, knowing that since he didn't want to confide in things, he was not easy to find out, so he lowered his head and thought about it, patted his thigh, and said: "It's really hard to find a place to step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it." My friend, who had been doing business with the Mongols in the north for many years, must have known the Mongolian script, and when we showed it to him, we knew the book. ”

Zhang Shixing asked nervously, "Brother Qin, is your brother reliable?" ”

Wang Shunhe patted his chest and said: "If you can trust my brother, you will naturally trust him." ”

Zhang Shixing said: "Okay, then let's go find him." ”

Wang Shun flicked the curtain and said to the young man in front of him: "Little Wu, let's not go to the dock, go home." ”

The young man answered, "Yes, sir." Then he raised his whip and shouted, and the carriage turned northeast.

Zhang Shixing was quite surprised, and asked Wang Shunhe: "Brother Qin, it has been a shift now, and the city gate has been locked, I'm afraid I can't enter the city, do you need me to show the waist card of the Jinyi Guard?" ”

Wang Shunhe smiled and said: "It's okay, my friend is quite thin in Yangzhou, he should be able to enter the city, if not, you can come forward again." ”

Zhang Shixing was silent and waited for the changes.

After a while, I saw the sparse lights at the head of Yangzhou City. Yangzhou Prefecture is subordinate to Jingshi, with jurisdiction over three states and seven counties, and the seat of governance is Jiangdu County.

The carriage came to the north gate, and the soldiers above the city saw the lantern hanging on the carriage and asked, "Is it the little five of the Sun family?" ”

The little five who was driving the car replied: "It's the small one." ”

The soldier said, "You wait a moment, just after the lock has been dropped, you come to Luo again." ”

The little fifth brother said: "There is Brother Lao Li, I will invite you to eat and drink another day." ”

Then Brother Li stomped down the city, opened the city gate, and let the carriage in.

Zhang Shixing gave Wang Shun and a thumbs up: "This friend of yours has a bigger face than the prefect of Yangzhou. ”

Wang Shunhe said with a smile: "The county officials are not as good as the current management, and money can make the ghosts grind." ”

After the carriage entered the city, it went south, and after a while it turned eastward, and came to a halt in front of a large house near the Great East Gate.

Yangzhou has been prosperous since ancient times, and there is a saying: "Wrap 100,000 yuan around your waist, and ride a crane down to Yangzhou." It can be seen that Yangzhou has been a world of flowers since the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the rich have sold gold caves.

Wang Shunhe and Zhang Shixing got out of the car and saw that the house was no different from other houses in the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, all of which were cornices and corners, blue bricks and tiles, but there were two sun-character lanterns hanging on the black lacquered door. Xiao Wu drove the car elsewhere.

Wang Shunhe led the way in front, pushed open the gate, entered the courtyard, turned the instrument door, Huo Ran was cheerful in front of him, under the reflection of the light, he saw a large courtyard in the middle, the blue bricks were all over the ground, the pebble paved road, the halls and halls were connected all around, the buildings were connected, a hall in the middle, the hall was large, the carved beams and painted buildings, the style was extraordinary, a banquet could be set up for a hundred banquets, the atmosphere of wealth came to the face, and when I was in it, I felt that this was the pattern of the big family hiding the wealth.

At this time, a subordinate walked down the hall, stepped forward to greet Wang Shunhe, bowed down and smiled: "Mr. Qin, are you back?" I heard from the porter that the gentleman had brought back a distinguished guest. ”

Wang Shunhe pointed at Zhang Shixing and said to him: "Your distinguished guest has arrived, you go and talk to Sun Weng." ”

The man said: "The host has prepared a banquet and is waiting in the water pavilion in the back garden, I will lead the way, please ask the gentleman and the distinguished guests to walk slowly." ”

When Zhang Shixing heard this, he was amazed, this Sun Weng was able to hold a table of banquets in a moment after the guests entered the door, which shows that his strength and skill are extraordinary.

The servant carried the lantern, led the Wang and Zhang through the courtyard of the four entrances, came to the back garden, the nose is the fragrance of flowers, the ears are gurgling water, turn a rockery, in front of a piece of open water, the winding plank road leads straight to a water pavilion in the middle, the water pavilion hexagonal point, dense eaves and windows, the screen lamp hangs high, and the figure is sufficient.
