His reaction was so abnormal that Lu Changwei was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but wonder, which of his words was wrong that made him so emotional? After thinking about it, he knew that it was not his fault, it was the beggar's problem.

"Don't be afraid." Slowly squatting down, he gently comforted the beggar, trying to gain his trust, "I won't hurt you." ”

His appeasement did not work, but it made the beggar like a frightened bird, farther away, "left... Left... Don't kill me... Don't kill me, I'll be obedient. ”

His words were intermittent, like a plate of loose sand, if others heard it, they would definitely be confused, but in Lu Changwei's ears, it was enlightening and enlightened.

They suspected so many people to break through from various exits, but they only ignored one person, when the prime minister Zuo Wei, if he was not mistaken, the left in the beggar's mouth should be him, after all, in the entire Duannan, there are few people surnamed Zuo, so what is the connection between the two of them?

"Check his identity and see how he relates to the Prime Minister."

It was inconvenient for him to go out, so he could only send his entourage to investigate, and I believed that he would be able to get the results in just half an hour.

Here he waited for his retinue to return, and continued to talk to the beggar, trying to see if he could find any more clues, after all, the more clues he could get, the sooner the matter could be closed.

"What did you do wrong, why should I kill you?"

He tried to speak in Zuo Wei's tone, probing the beggar's tone to see what news he could spit out when he was in a hurry.

"I don't know." The beggar shook his head, he also felt aggrieved, "I didn't do anything wrong. ”

"If you have not done wrong, why are you afraid of me?"

This is also where Lu Changwei's doubts lie, it can be seen that the beggar is very afraid of Zuo Wei, even if he just hears a voice and tone similar to him, he can be frightened, if he really wants to see the real person, I am afraid that he will not be able to live, in this case, it is obviously impossible to say that there is no problem.

"Don't kill me... Don't kill me... I will be obedient. ”

The beggar was now delirious, his speech was slurred, and he only had these few words over and over again, and he couldn't say anything from the side, let alone hear the slightest clue, Lu Changwei asked to the end, and finally gave up.

"Ugh." Sighing, he said, "That's it, I won't force you, you can be honest." ”

Since he couldn't ask, he didn't want to bother talking too much, so he had to wait until the matter was clarified before he planned for the next step, and now he couldn't be sure whether the beggar had anything to do with Zuo Wei, so naturally he couldn't rush to make the decision for him.

"Master Hou, my subordinates have inquired." While he was waiting anxiously, his retinue was late.

"Say." Time is precious, and he can't afford to waste it.

"He is a person from Xiangye's mansion, and it is said that he committed a crime and was kicked out by Xiangye."

"What did you do?" Frowning, Lu Changwei asked.

His guess came true, the beggar was really from Xiangye's mansion, but he didn't know what heinous crime he had committed that could make him driven out of the mansion by Zuo Wei himself, almost put to death, and suddenly became crazy.

"My subordinates don't know." The entourage shook his head, looking embarrassed, "The people in Xiangye's Mansion don't want to say it, probably because their subordinates have a humble status, and it's not worth them to speak." ”

"Since that's the case, then the marquis will go through it in person and see how they prevaricate this time."

The two drove the beggar all the way to Xiangye's mansion, but fortunately, the guards at the door still recognized Lu Changwei and did not embarrass him, "See Hou Ye." ”

"Get up." If they had always had this attitude, Lu Changwei would not be embarrassed for them, "Xiangye can be in the house?" ”

"Not there." The guard replied honestly, "Xiangye went out to do errands and hasn't come back yet, if the Hou Ye has something to do with Xiangye, you can go to the mansion and wait." ”

"Not necessarily." Lu Changwei waved his hand and rejected their proposal, "I came here to ask something, and I want to ask you too." ”

It is best for Zuo Wei not to be at home, so as not to be discovered by him, and after asking the guards, he can leave quietly, not letting Zuo Wei know, it is also beneficial to them, at least it can save a lot of trouble.

"What do you have to ask?"

The guards were confused, I don't know if he is so humble and light-hearted, how can he help Lu Changwei?

"Do you still recognize him?"

Gently raising the beggar's head, Lu Changwei let his face be exposed in front of the guards.

The beggar's face was dirty and black, and he couldn't read his facial features at all, but through those eyes and expressions, the guards still recognized him, "Yes." ”

After working together for so long, there is no reason why they would not know him, even if they fell into a dung pit, the guards must be able to tell the difference.

Since he still knew him, Lu Changwei said bluntly, "Then tell me why he was kicked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion!" ”

This question really makes the guards embarrassed, "Xiangye won't let me say it." ”

On the one hand, it was the master's advice, and on the other hand, it was Lu Changwei's interrogation, he couldn't afford to offend both of them, but he had to offend one of them, which really gave him a headache.

Zuo Wei is really an old fox, thoughtful, but Lu Changwei is also not a vegetarian, took out a piece of gold, put it in front of the guard, he said, "If you tell me the truth, the gold is yours, I promise you, God knows this matter, you know and I know, and I will never let Xiangye hear half a word, how about it?" Are you going to make this deal? ”

Staring at the gold with straight eyes, the guard swallowed a mouthful of saliva, there was really no way to refuse him, the so-called people died for money, birds died for food, in this ups and downs, it was nothing more than to make some money, and now the opportunity to make money was in front of him, how could there be any reason to say no.

"It's done." The guard took the gold and said with a smile.

As the saying goes, those who know the times are handsome, and everything is the most taboo and strong, so he will comply with the will of God this time and sell him some face.

"Then speak quickly." With his hands behind his back, Lu Changwei was very satisfied in his heart, and he knew that there was nothing in the world that gold could not solve.

The guards looked left and right, and after making sure that they couldn't see Zuo Wei's figure, they explained the cause and effect of the matter, "He was found out for stealing Xiangye's things, and his self-esteem was too strong for a while, so he committed suicide by taking poison, and was rescued. ”

"That's all there is to it?" In any case, Lu Changwei didn't believe that the truth would be so simple, at least in the current situation, the process would not be so peaceful, and it was about Zuo Wei's kindness, which was also up for debate, either Zuo Wei was hiding something, or the guards didn't tell the truth, in short, this was wrong.

"What I just said is true, and that's the truth."

Seeing that he was a little suspicious of himself, the guard hurriedly assured him, and almost raised his finger and swore an oath.

"I see."

Looking at his expression and cautious attitude, Lu Changwei could roughly guess that he really didn't know, and he must have no clue about this matter, so he had better go back earlier and discuss it with Li Changge.

He returned to the General's Mansion again, and successfully found Li Changge, first told her about the beggar, looking at the beggar's stupid and frightened pitiful appearance, she suddenly softened her heart a lot, "Linglong, settle him in the mansion first, and find someone to take care of him." ”

In his current state, if he is allowed to return to the place just now, I am afraid that within three days, he will be starved to death, Li Changge doesn't know, now that she has seen it, she can't ignore it and sit idly by, if she sends him back, it is really unbearable, it is better to leave him first, and then make plans.

"Yes, miss."

Linglong led the beggar away, and the whole hall was only the two of them, and the silence was very close, just right for talking about what was going on.

"I always find it a little strange about beggars." Lu Changwei confided his doubts and things that he hadn't told others before to Li Changge, and asked her to help analyze them.

"He kept talking about asking Zuo Wei not to kill him, and also said that he would be obedient, and he was very afraid of Zuo Wei in his words and demeanor, but the guard said that Zuo Wei was kind and let him go, the two said very different words, this matter is really strange, what do you think?"

If there is not much difference, he may still convince himself, but the angle is different, the view is different, but now they say that the south and the north, day and place, if he does not find out again, he will be careless.

"Could it be that the beggar is delirious and confused, so he is talking nonsense?"

Li Changge didn't believe that Zuo Wei was a good person, but at the same time, she also doubted the authenticity of the beggar's words, after all, he himself didn't know what he had said, and there was no way to guarantee his words, so in front of a fool and a guard, she would rather believe the latter.

"I don't think so." Lu Changwei thought for a while and overturned her rhetoric, "When people are nervous and afraid, they can always say some subconscious words, although the beggar is a little stupid, but the fear in his heart can't be faked." ”

For some reason, he obviously trusted beggars more than guards, perhaps because his eyes were clear and his demeanor was simple, so even though he was crazy, Lu Changwei was still willing to believe that he was more trustworthy than guards.

"You're saying the guards might have lied?"

Things are getting more and more weird, Li Changge feels as if there is a mystery in front of her eyes, close to her, but far away in the sky, trying to solve the mystery is not so simple.

"Maybe he lied, maybe Zuo Wei lied to him, in short, I don't believe Zuo Wei will be a good person." We have worked together for many years, and we have dealt with each other a few times, what kind of character Zuo Wei is, Lu Changwei knows better than anyone else, in his affairs, others don't want to deceive his eyes, "This matter can't stop there, if I find an opportunity, I will go to Xiangye's Mansion to re-investigate." ”
