As Yang Yi thought, what Dou Xu wanted to know from Yang Yi was not limited to this.

I saw Dou Xu take out a letter from his arms and gently put it on the table, and said: "When the official heard that the Wanfu Commercial Bank was tragically looted a few days ago, you were also at the scene, what clues can be told to the official, so that the official can bring the villains to justice." ”

This is the reason why Dou Xu rushed to help Yang Yi, Yang Yi wrote this letter by hand and asked Su Fan to hand it over to Dou Xu before he was arrested and taken to the yamen. The contents of the envelope said that Yang Yi knew some secrets of the robbery of Wanfu Commercial Bank.

Dou Xu is in charge of these matters in the Assassin's Mansion, and the occurrence of such a big case has a great impact on him, but there are advantages and disadvantages to things, if Dou Xu can solve this big case, it will undoubtedly be a big political achievement, and at such a critical moment, it will add a heavy weight to his competition for the position of Assassin History.

Yang Yi sorted out his thoughts, took a step forward and said: "My lord, when the students entered Shu a few days ago, they were on the same road as the Wanfu Commercial Bank, and the bandits sneaked up on the students at the post station and escaped. ”

Dou Xu condensed: "I also heard that a group of people were also at the post station at the time, could it be you?" ”

The guard of Jianchong Pass had already reported the details of the robbery of Wanfu Commercial Bank to Dou Xu, Dou Xu was busy with this matter in the past few days, and various caravans and Gao Zuozhen were putting pressure on him, and even Tao He, who had not asked about political affairs for a long time, was also asking about the progress of the case.

Yang Yi was afraid that Dou Xu would come to ask him about the details of that night again, and he would waste saliva again, so he went straight to the point and said: "My lord, the student has some important clues, but I didn't understand it at the time, but after thinking about it carefully, it seems that it may have something to do with the case." ”

Dou Xu sat up straight and said, "Speak quickly." ”

"At that time, the students inadvertently saw that Jin Pengyuan, the manager of Wanfu Commercial Bank, had colluded with the bandits, because they were hiding far away, and they only eavesdropped on it, and then they carefully analyzed the matter, and I think there may be another hidden story in this matter."

"What's the secret?"

Yang Yi pretended to ponder and said: "I have always been unable to figure out a question, that Jin Pengyuan was originally the chief manager of Wanfu Commercial Bank, why would he destroy his future for a batch of goods, I believe you have also thought of this." ”

Dou Xu touched his chin and nodded, this was indeed his doubt. After the accident of Wanfu Commercial Bank, because of the testimony of Yang Yi and the post officer, and they could not find Jin Pengyuan afterwards, it is very likely that the robbery of Wanfu Commercial Bank was Jin Pengyuan's troublemaker. Dou Xu had already ordered all of Jin Pengyuan's family members to be controlled, and wanted to force Jin Pengyuan to appear, but this person was like evaporating from the world, and there was no news at all.

"What did you find?" Dou Xu wondered.

Yang Yi glanced at Dou Xu and replied: "The students heard Jin Pengyuan talking to the bandits that night, and their first target didn't seem to be the caravan goods, but to find a person named Zhang Shi. ”

"Zhang Shi?" Dou Xu searched his mind, and he couldn't remember any famous person named Zhang Shi in Shu.

Yang Yi didn't dare to say too much, and continued: "Yes, and when they were looking for Zhang, it seemed that they were looking for one thing. ”

"What's that?"

Yang Yi pretended to be pondering and thought for a while: "A jade ring with a beast-shaped pattern, they didn't say what it looked like, I was too far away, and I could only hear so much." ”

Of course, Yang Yi threw out this jade ring bait for a purpose, he actually didn't know what the bandits and Jin Pengyuan were looking for, just because the Zhong steward of Wanfu Commercial Bank had asked Zhang Shi alone before, and the Zhong steward's expression was a little anxious that day, but there was no sadness, indicating that Zhang Shi was not his relative, so the caravan was dozens of people, and the Zhong steward didn't even ask Jin Pengyuan, why did he ask this person named Zhang Shi alone.

In addition, Yang Yi also asked his grandfather, and he didn't know what happened to Zhang Shi and the jade ring.

Yang Yi decided to test Dou Xu, after all, this person was the second-in-command in Shu, if he didn't even know, then maybe the direction he guessed was wrong.

Yang Yi threw Zhang Shi to Dou Xu first, looking at Dou Xu's expression, he had not heard of Zhang Shi, and when Yang Yi said the general appearance of the jade ring, Dou Xu's face really changed.

"What you say is true?" Dou Xu's expression was quite solemn.

Yang Yi nodded and said, "There is no lie, it's a pity that I hid on the mountain rock that day and eavesdropped, and I didn't hear more." ”

Dou Xu stared at Yang Yi, and Yang Yi didn't look directly at him at all, he must not shrug at this time, this kind of officialdom old fox's ability to observe words and emotions is too strong.

The two looked at each other for a moment, Dou Xu sat up straight again, and said to Yang Yi: "You go home and wait for news, you are not allowed to leave Chengzhou Mansion without my permission." ”

Yang Yi and Su Fan bowed and retreated.

As soon as Yang Yifang left, Qingli's eyes suddenly shone out, and he stood up and shouted, "Someone!" ”

The official at the door immediately walked in quickly and bowed, "Your Excellency." ”

Dou Xu condensed: "Prepare the car immediately and go to the Assassin's Mansion!" ”

-----------------------------

On the way back, Yang Yi didn't speak, and he kept weighing the key to this matter in his heart.

Yang Yi knew that the jade was obtained by himself, but he didn't know how much this jade was worth, so he could only throw bricks to draw out the true value of this jade. Through Dou Xu's performance, Yang Yi can be completely sure of the importance of this piece of jade at this moment, perhaps not only can be measured by money.

Su Fan, who was walking beside Yang Yi, saw Yang Yi's sad face, thinking that he was frightened, and took two steps forward and said softly: "Nephew, since this matter has the help of Lord Dou, there must not be too many problems, so don't worry." ”

Yang Yi smiled, he didn't tell himself that this somewhat pedantic but very generous uncle was actually just beginning, and only said: "No uncle, I'm just a little hungry." ”

Su Fan laughed, patted Yang Yi on the shoulder and said, "I see, don't worry, I'll tell the kitchen to make something for you when you go home!" ”

The group hurried back to Su Mansion, Su Luan and a few of his subordinates were already waiting at the door anxiously, and when they saw Yang Yi and Su Fan coming back together, and Yang Yi was still unharmed, he seemed a little surprised. Everyone thought that Yang Yi must have been imprisoned with a stick, and no one would have thought that he would come back safely and soundly so soon.

Yuhuan's affairs should not be publicized, so under Yang Yi's orders, his uncle Su Fan only said that Sima Douxu helped Yang Yi, and did not talk about other things.

The first time Yang Yi returned to the house was to see Su Zhongzhai and explain the matter in detail to his half-paralyzed grandfather, hoping that Su Zhongzhai could give him some advice.

Now Yang Yi is indeed too short of people who can come up with ideas, Tie Niu will not talk about anything except eating and fighting, and he will not use his brain, Monkey Jian'er is quite smart, but they are all small ideas and bad ideas, and the overall situation is not as good as Yang Yi. Uncle Su Fan is very knowledgeable, but he is too pedantic and easy to think about things, and this kind of person is not suitable for playing some difficult and cunning tricks.

Only Su Zhongzhai, who has rich experience and is quite wise, can give some good advice, but it is a pity that this old man in his twilight has extremely limited energy now, and many times he will fall asleep when he can't say two sentences.

Yang Yi had already repaired the book two days ago to let the Su family caravan take out of Shuzhong, and he wanted Liu Wenzheng and Gongsun Yao to enter Shu in batches, so as not to arouse suspicion, and to quickly let himself have more helpers around him.

In fact, Yang Yi wants to find the drunkard military master Bai Yuanliang, although this guy must be dangerous in every plan, and he has to let himself carry his head to fight every step, but he has to admit that the heirs of the Guigu Valley have unparalleled strategies, and there are few omissions, if there is his help, I believe that he will soon be able to gain a firm foothold in Shuzhong, but it is a pity that this guy is too casual, and it is undoubtedly more difficult to invite him than to ascend to the sky.

"Grandpa, what do you think we should do next?" Yang Yi asked while helping Su Zhongzhai rub his arm.

Su Zhongzhai pointed his finger at the teapot placed aside, Yang Yi understood, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea and carefully handed it to Su Zhongzhai to drink.

"Dou Xu is a good breakthrough, and now that the conflict of interest between him and Gao Zuozhen is getting bigger and bigger, you should take advantage of it." Su Zhongzhai said with a smile.

Yang Yi nodded and said, "I think so too, but I don't know if Dou Xu will take the bait." ”

"Yes, since he can come to your rescue because of a vague letter from you, it means that the jade ring in your hand is a good thing. A few days ago, I asked your uncle to check, and this time Wanfu Commercial Bank suffered such a big loss, but they were uncharacteristically quiet, neither to put pressure on the government, nor to settle accounts with the bandits as usual. ”

"Huh? Yang Yi was silent, also thinking about the key points.

Su Zhongzhai said again: "When you first came to Shuzhong, you don't know that the power of the three major trading houses in Shuzhong may be even greater than you imagined. He glanced at Yang Yi leisurely, and said, "I have to say, Yi'er, you are dragging an important chess piece in your hand, how to play, you must be cautious." ”

"Will Dou Xu leave me alone and act on his own?"

Su Zhongzhai thought for a while and said: "This matter is not so simple, since Wanfu Commercial Bank can swallow this dumb loss, then it means that the things in your hands are not something they can control." Judging from the current situation, Dou Xu also doesn't want to know too many people, and now no one knows except for the bandits and Jin Pengyuan you saw that night, it is unlikely that you will be killed, and it is more likely to pull you or our Su family into the gang. ”

Yang Yi nodded, if this is the case, it is beneficial and harmless to both himself and the Su family, the Su family does not need to pay much to find Dou Xu, a temporary backer, and the Su family now urgently needs someone to help them stabilize their position, otherwise Gao Zuozhen and the Gao family will definitely eat away at the Su family little by little.

"Wait for the news, Dou Xu will definitely look for you again, you don't have to worry too much." Su Zhongzhai smiled, and then closed his eyes, he felt very tired after talking for so long, and he needed to rest for a while.
