The defenders came to report that an old man fainted at the gate of Qiantang County, and the last sentence mentioned that it was the Meng family and wanted to see the Lin County Order.

The soldiers defending the city did not dare to slack off, and immediately came to report to Lin Zhao!

"Where's the person?" When Lin Zhao heard this, his face became much more solemn, according to the description of the defenders, this old man was probably ...... "has been sent to the county government by carriage!" ”

Lin Zhao nodded and instructed Yu Xuandao: "Hurry up and ask for a doctor, and then go to Miss Meng to come over." With that, he hurriedly turned around and left.

"Yes!" Yu Xuan did not hesitate and immediately went to handle it.

When he came to a room in the backyard of the county government, Lin Zhao saw this ragged and tired old man, with scars on his body clearly visible, and he was in a coma at this time.

Meng Ruoying came quickly, as soon as she received the news and heard the description, she was panicked and worried, and immediately hurried over.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw the old man on the bed and exclaimed: "Uncle Sun! Then he saw the old man's physical condition, and he was anxious, and his eyes were already ruddy, full of concern.

"Really, Master Sun?" Lin Zhao asked softly.

Meng Ruoying nodded lightly and said, "That's right, he is Master Sun at the helm of the cargo ship, are you getting to him?" ”

"It wasn't me who found him, it was he who came to Hangzhou to find you and me, but he fainted at the gate of the city and was sent here by the defenders!"

"What about the ship?"

Lin Zhao shook his head lightly and said, "There is no definite news from Suzhou yet, and now we can only know when Master Sun wakes up." ”

Having said that, I have already thought in my heart that I am afraid that it will be more than lucky.

It didn't take long for a doctor to arrive, and Meng Ruoying hurriedly said, "Mr. Trouble, hurry up and treat Uncle Sun!" ”

After the doctor's treatment, he said, "The patient's injuries are very serious, and his body seems to have suffered a heavy blow, perhaps because the wound is soaked in water, and his condition is getting worse. And the injury did not get treatment in time, but was in a hurry, so it became more serious...... To be honest, it's a miracle that he's been able to hold on until now! ”

Meng Ruoying hurriedly asked, "Ah, sir, what about Uncle Sun...... Trouble you must save him! ”

The healer hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "There is no way to return to the sky, and the patient has reached the point where the oil has run out, but there seems to be some faith supporting him, otherwise he would have died a long time ago!" ”

"Isn't there anything you can do?" Lin Zhao was also unwilling to accept this fact.

The healer muttered, "Try your best to wake him up, but ......"

Having said this, Lin Zhao and Meng Ruoying both knew in their hearts, although they were very reluctant, they had to accept this painful fact.

Then the doctor carried out treatment, immediately prescribed medicine, decoction and gave it to the old grandson, and then everyone waited by the bedside, waiting for the old grandson to wake up.

Meng Ruoying's fists were clenched tightly, and her nails even pierced into her jade palms. Lin Zhao was also silent, he was wondering what kind of belief has supported Lao Sun until now, and this answer will be very important.

Finally, two hours later, Lao Sun woke up leisurely, and when he saw Meng Ruoying's familiar face, he suddenly burst into tears.

"Uncle Sun!" Meng Ruoying called softly.

"Miss, I'm sorry, my grandson has lived up to your trust and expectations!"

The boat had an accident, and the last trace of luck in Lin Zhao and Meng Ruoying's hearts was shattered, and what they were more concerned about now was what happened and where were the other boatmen?

Meng Ruoying asked in a low voice, "Uncle Sun, how do you feel now, can you tell me what happened?" ”

"Hmm!" Although he was very weak, the old grandson felt that he had to inform the eldest lady as soon as possible, he didn't know how long he could support it, a boatload of grain, dozens of lives, how could the revenge not be avenged?

The old grandson said with difficulty: "It is very likely that it is the Qianjiang Sanjiao ......"

The cargo ship is moving smoothly in the Jiangnan River, and Lao Sun Tou is absolutely sure about the safety issue. The sinking was due to the rupture of the bottom of the ship, and it was not just a rupture, and it was impossible to hit the reef as a result, so there is only one possibility, the bottom of the ship was deliberately scuttled.

When Lao Sun Tou was desperate, he saw a few black lines under the water go away, which confirmed this even more. As a veteran shipwright who has been sailing for decades, he has some understanding of the powerful characters in Jiangnan Water. The one who can commit a crime in such a water situation is undoubtedly the Qianjiang Sanjiao...... Qianjiang Sanjiao is a trio of brothers, who grew up on the Qiantang River on Liangzhejiang Road, and happens to be surnamed Qian. Growing up by the river since childhood, the water surname is excellent, even in July and August, you can swim in the tide of the Qianjiang River, safe and sound, come and go freely!

It is said that the three brothers were instructed by a master to have a special method of breathing and ventilation, and they could dive underwater for a long time and compare themselves to dragons, so they got this nickname.

This is a good skill, and it is very good to make a living on the water, but after being discovered and used by someone with a heart, a qualitative change has occurred.

For example, they dive onto ships to steal, or they are asked to scuttle a rival's ship. Although there has been no clear evidence to bring them to justice, insiders know in their hearts that their brother's reputation is already on the outside.

The first thing that Lao Sun Tou thought of was them, and after thinking about it for the past few days, he still decided that they were the most suspicious. He didn't know why Qianjiang Sanjiao wanted to scuttle the Meng family's ship, but he had to inform the eldest lady and Lin Gongzi of the news, and it was their business to track it down.

It was with such a belief that Lao Sun Tou jumped into the river, and with many years of rich experience and a little luck, he was lucky to swim out of the whirlpool. Coming ashore from across the river and heading towards Qiantang County.

With this belief in identification, Lao Sun Tou dragged his exhausted and seriously injured body to Qiantang. When he arrived at the gate of the city, he was so excited that he could no longer support it and fainted.

Fortunately, he knew that Lin Gongzi was an official here, and before he fell, he confided in his master's name, and the defenders heard that it was related to the county commander, so they didn't dare to be negligent, so they hurried to report it.

After the old grandson finished narrating, he looked at Lin Zhao and said with tears in his eyes: "Lin Gongzi, there are dozens of people on the boat, except for the old man, all the others were killed, you must avenge them!" As he spoke, he grabbed Lin Zhao's arm tightly!

"Well, don't worry, Uncle Sun!" Lin Zhao made a solemn promise!

After the news was completed, and Lin Zhao's promise of revenge was obtained, the old grandson had no more concerns, his spiritual pillar fell suddenly, and his body, which had run out of oil, could no longer support it, and then died!

"Uncle Sun!" Meng Ruoying exclaimed, and her tears couldn't help it, bursting out of her eyes.

Although the old grandson is just a helper, he has served the Meng family for forty or fifty years, Meng Ruoying has always respected her, but this time she died because of the Meng family, Meng Ruoying's heart was full of guilt and sadness.

Lin Zhao's fists clenched tightly, and he promised that the promise of the old grandson would definitely be fulfilled. In order to make black money, business competition has reached such an unscrupulous and frenzied level, which is simply outrageous. There are dozens of lives, and this time there are too many breakthroughs to the bottom line, so Lin Zhao is willing to give up.

At this moment, in front of the body of the old grandson, he made a vow in his heart, no matter who the opponent is, he must let him pay for his blood debt!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Qinghetang, Lu Shan came over and said, "Big brother, it has been confirmed clearly, the Meng family's ship has indeed sunk!" ”

"In other words, the Meng family itself has no food supplements?" Lu Ji secretly thought to himself, before the Meng family came back to life, he was curious about the source of the Meng family's food.

Because Lin Zhao had visited Zhang Ziheng, Guangji Grain was the first object of suspicion. However, there is another possibility, that is, the Meng family's own cargo ship arrived, and out of caution, Lu Ji verified it again and ruled out this factor.

"That means that the food was indeed given by Zhang Ziheng?" Lu Ji asked in a deep voice.

"But the news revealed by Zhang Ziheng said that it was not his food......" Lu Shan seemed to be a little puzzled, and after a moment of silence, he said angrily: "Ping Yue pretended to be a righteous gentleman, but I didn't expect that he was also a timid villain, dare not do it!" ”

Lu Ji has always been more cautious, and said: "If the food is really not given by Zhang Ziheng, then what food source will they have?" ”

"Big brother, I think Zhang Ziheng is not honest, and Bacheng is that he is making trouble behind his back!" Lu Shan seemed to be more persistent.

Lu Ji shook his head and said: "It is beneficial to think more, you can't be too narrow-minded, know yourself and know your opponent, you can not be defeated in a hundred battles!" ”

Lu Shan pondered at this time: "If there is really another source, then ...... Could it be that Lin Zhao was transferred from the official warehouse? ”

"Guancang? There wasn't much food in the official warehouse in Qiantang County, otherwise Lin Zhao would be so nervous? Lu Ji was shaking his head, but suddenly his expression froze, and he said: "No, in addition to the official position, he also has a regular position!" ”

"Closing positions?" Lu Shan immediately waved his hand and said: "Qiantang County is one of the trial sites of the Qingmiao Law, and Lin Zhao dares to use the grain that is often closed?" ”

"Don't forget, one of the functions of the regular closing position itself is to stabilize food prices!" Lu Ji said: "In terms of Lin Zhao's characteristics, he may not dare!" ”

"What about stabilizing food prices?" Lu Shan said with a smile: "If this is really the case, it is a good opportunity, Lin Zhao privately transferred Changping to store grain, moved it for other purposes, and sought personal gain, if someone writes to impeach, hehe......"

When Lu Ji heard this, a deceitful smile appeared on his face, and a poisonous plan had been generated in his heart. He immediately wondered: "However, if Lin Zhao really transferred the reserve grain that was often closed, would he have already obtained the permission of the official family and the prince Wang?" ”

"It's not impossible!" Lu Shan said: "However, it is not difficult to know this, go to Bianjing, Da Lang can get close to the center, it should not be difficult to find out this news!" ”

"Hmm!" Lu Ji nodded and said: "Go to Da Lang immediately, listen to the meaning of Erlang and San Lang's words, Da Lang seems to be a little dissatisfied with Lin Zhao." This opportunity, I think Dalang will like it! ”

"What about Hangzhou?" Lu Shan asked softly.

"It's time to make a move, we can't be too passive!" Lu Ji replied in a deep voice, and at the same time thought that some things should also be dealt with in the aftermath, and he couldn't leave a handle!

At the same time, Su An hurriedly walked into the county study, and before he could speak, Lin Zhao ordered: "Bozhou, track down the whereabouts of a few people for me!" ”

"Who?"

"Qianjiang Sanjiao!"

"Yes!" Su An said at this time: "Childe, there is news in the background of the Lu brothers!" ”
