Chapter 343: Where to Start
After Zhang Shumo listened to Liu Tiantian's words, the corners of his mouth twitched: "Is this still called smooth?" Do I have to have three longs and two shorts to be considered difficult? ”
Liu naturally hurriedly rolled his eyes: "I just said it casually, you still have to make your own decisions about the specific decision!" ”
Zhang Shumo frowned, if he continued to investigate, he would inevitably let Gao Yan know, and he would inevitably offend Gao Yan. But if you don't find out the mastermind behind the scenes, I believe that in the next peace talks, the other side will definitely use more drastic means, and the other party is in the dark, and he is in the light, and he will definitely be unable to guard against it!
Thinking of this, Zhang Shumo gritted his teeth: "Okay, then let's continue to investigate!" It's just that I can't check it clearly, otherwise I will offend Gao Yan, so I have to think about how to check it and where to start! ”
With this question, the crowd dispersed.
Lin Xiruo stayed outside Zhang Shumo's house, and waited for everyone to leave before she walked in.
"Miss Lin is looking for me?" As soon as Zhang Shumo saw Lin Xiruo, he remembered the embarrassing moment last time, and his face turned red all of a sudden.
Lin Xiruo couldn't help but smile when she saw Zhang Shumo's appearance, and then asked with concern, "Is the son angry in the palace today?" I saw that Childe's clothes were a little wet. ”
Being reminded by Lin Xiruo like this, Zhang Shumo remembered the embarrassing scene of being in the same bathtub with Gongsun Rong, so Zhang Shumo's face turned even redder: "Thank you girl for your concern, it's okay!" It's normal to be in a foreign country and get angry. ”
Hearing Zhang Shumo say that he was so lonely, Lin Xiruo's heart tightened, and then he thought of his life experience again, and couldn't help sighing: "What Gongzi said is that Yan Guo is like this, officials protect each other, or my father would not be exiled." ”
Seeing Lin Xiruo's pitiful appearance, Zhang Shumo was a little soft-hearted, so he asked, "Miss Lin, if you don't mind, can you tell me about your family affairs?" Maybe I can help. ”
Lin Xiruo pursed her lips, and then nodded: "My father was originally the governor of Jingzhao Yin's sect, Cao, who was in charge of the inspection of the Kyoto guards. On that day, my father bumped into someone on the street and robbed the girl, so he naturally stepped forward to stop him. I never thought that person was the son of the King of Qi's family, and his family was still related to the King of Qi. When the father stopped him, he beat him, so he offended the other party. So he took advantage of King Qi's door to convict his father of a trumped-up crime, which led to the destruction of my Lin family. ”
Zhang Shumo stood up when he heard this: "Since this is the case, I will help the girl take care of this matter, and I will definitely get justice for the girl!" ”
When Lin Xiruo heard this, tears flashed in his eyes, he was just a maid to Zhang Shumo. But he wants to offend King Qi for himself, how can he not be moved?
But Zhang Shumo had a plan in his heart: since he couldn't check it openly, he would check it secretly. It just so happened that Lin Xiruo's family affairs were related to the Qi Palace, and he just used this name to investigate the King of Qi!
The next day, Zhang Shumo gathered the people around him, and then said his thoughts. Naturally, everyone would not have any objections, so they checked it according to Zhang Shumo's instructions.
Soon, some of the basic information of the Qi Palace's Mansion was checked clearly by Zhang Shumo.
Sun Kang, the prince of Qi, was the younger brother of Gongsun Xue's half-father, so he was left in Kyoto. And Gongsun Kang is indeed as Gao Yan said, rarely cares about political affairs, it seems that he is an idle king who eats and waits for death.
But the grandson of the prince of Qi is very different. At a young age, he had already become the governor of the capital, and he had a wide range of friends, and all the children of officials who could be called in Kyoto had dealings with him.
Not only that, Gongsun Yang and the eldest prince Gongsun Luo have a deep friendship, but what Zhang Shumo didn't expect was that Gongsun Yang and the second prince Gongsun Zhi also had a close relationship, and it seemed that he could make friends with anyone.
And the one who framed Lin Xiruo's family was Zhao Tao, the child of Uncle Gongsun Yang's family. Zhao Tao is the eldest son of the Zhao family, so he is deeply liked by Gongsun Yang's mother, so he is adopted by his side and can freely enter and leave the palace of King Qi.
This also made Zhao Tao develop an arrogant and domineering character, so he didn't cause much trouble. Fortunately, King Qi loves his wife very much, and these things have been settled for him.
After checking these news, Zhang Shumo had some thoughts about this Zhao Tao. Since he can enter and exit the Qi Palace, he also knows a little about Gongsun Yang's guards, and maybe he can find out some news from it.
So Zhang Shumo had a plan and approached Zhao Tao.
Zhao Tao is lustful by nature and often goes to some brothels in Qinglou, on this day Zhang Shumo asked Cai Xun to find out Zhao Tao's whereabouts, and then took Li Mo and Liu Nature to wait on the way home for him.
At this time, Zhao Tao was still unaware, sitting in the carriage humming a little song and rushing to the Qi Palace.
Suddenly there was a jolt, followed by the neighing of horses, and the carriage stopped.
Zhao Tao opened the curtain angrily: "What's the matter?" Want to fall to death? ”
"Young master, someone is blocking the way!" The subordinate hurriedly explained to Zhao Tao.
Zhao Tao saw three people standing in the middle of the road in front of the carriage, led by a young man dressed in scholarly equipment. Zhao Tao immediately pointed at the young man and scolded: "You fucking want to die? Dare to block Lao Tzu's way, and you don't ask who Lao Tzu is? ”
It was none other than Zhang Shumo who stood in the way. Zhang Shumo smiled contemptuously: "I've inquired, Zhao Tao, right?" It's your carriage that I'm stopping this time! ”
Zhao Tao has done a lot of trouble, and he usually offends a lot of people, and when he heard Zhang Shumo's words, he instinctively thought that the enemy had come to seek revenge.
Seeing that there were only three people on Zhang Shumo's side, Zhao Tao couldn't help laughing: "It seems that he is here for Young Master Ben, tsk!" Now that you've inquired, do you three dare to block the way? I really don't know whether to live or die! A scholar, a Taoist priest, and the rest of the one seems to be quite powerful, but what can the three of you do to Young Master Ben? Come on, give me a discount for their legs! ”
After speaking, Zhao Tao put down the curtain and sat in the carriage and hummed a little song.
Outside the carriage, Zhao Tao's entourage heard Zhao Tao's order and rushed towards Zhang Shumo and the three without hesitation. Zhang Shumo stepped back with interest and handed over the scene to Liu Tiantian and Li Mo.
Of course, Liu Tiantian and Li Mo would not be polite to these people, and directly made ruthless moves, and they all made one move to defeat the enemy. After a moment's effort, Zhao Tao's entourage lay on the ground and kept wailing.
Zhao Tao sat in the carriage, and when he heard the wailing outside, he was in a good mood, and couldn't help but open the curtain: "Just you, a monkey man, dare to stop this son's ......"
Halfway through the words, Zhao Tao swallowed back, but he brought ten entourages, why did he lie on the ground in the blink of an eye?
