"My lord, it's here." Zhao Wu shouted quietly outside the carriage.

Zhang Mu pushed open the car window and looked outside, and what greeted him was only a small and inconspicuous façade.

According to the information provided to him by Wang Monkey, Wang Mao now lives here.

The façade of this room is not large, the wooden planks on the outside look mottled, and there is light moss on the steps below.

There is a plaque hanging on the gate, but the black paint has peeled off, and the gilded inscription is also full of dust, and it reads: "Wang Ji Miscellaneous Goods".

If you don't know the inside story, you just think it's just an ordinary grocery store, and there are some fresh vegetables and vegetables under the pergola made of bamboo poles and straw mats.

On the other side of the doorway, there are several large water tanks covered with scratches, on which is a word for sake.

The people in this neighborhood often come here to buy some daily necessities, needles, threads, and peppercorns.

In the summer evening, when the weather is better, when the sunset burns the red sky, the neighbors will gather here on the stone pier at the door to watch the nearby people play chess for fun.

Either in groups of three, in groups of five, shaking a fan and holding a teapot, sit around and tell some interesting anecdotes to pass the time.

No matter how you look at it, this is an ordinary grocery store that can no longer be ordinary, and it is inconspicuous.

However, Zhang Mu knew that the master in this was not a simple person.

What Doctor Bai told him is vivid.

Although he had not personally experienced the bloody storm, Zhang Mu could still smell the bloody storm of the year from the words of Doctor Bai.

Wang Mao was just a pawn of the interest group at that time. The master behind him should have been killed, Hu Weiyong.

As the last prime minister in ancient Chinese history, Hu Weiyong's case. It's really weird.

Countless historians in later generations have analyzed and said that Zhu Yuanzhang was through the Hu Weiyong case. to purge the merits, the second is to abolish the prime minister system, and elevate the absolute monarchy to the peak of the feudal dynasty.

Therefore, historians speculate that Hu Weiyong's case should be an unjust, false and wrongful case, but Zhu Yuanzhang had to kill Hu Weiyong, so he framed Hu Weiyong for rebellion and used such dirty and despicable means. Put Hu Weiyong to death.

Fortunately, Zhang Mu happened to be born in this era, and Hu Weiyong had been killed in the 20th year of Hongwu, but Hu Weiyong's anti-party case was still fermenting.

This year is the twenty-third year of Hongwu, and if you want to know the ins and outs of this case, it is still too late, Zhang Mu is indeed very interested in this case.

If everything that Doctor Bai said is true, then. At least from the current point of view, Hu Weiyong did have a rebellious move, as for whether it was as recorded in the history of the Ming Dynasty, when Zhu Yuanzhang went to Hu Weiyong's house. Hu Weiyong hides the killer behind the wall, so it is unknown.

Zhang Mu hadn't had time to investigate Zhou Rui, who became Wang Mao, before he went into seclusion. What kind of official position is it, but now he has been found. Naturally, you have to meet this person first.

At that moment, Zhang Mu lifted the curtain and got out of the car. Zhao Wu wanted to follow Zhang Mu over, Zhang Mu said: "You wait here." I'm in. ”

After speaking, he took the butter paper umbrella from his hand, and then walked away.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the grocery store, Zhang Mu smelled a faint aroma of wine, and stepped in, the light in the grocery store was dim, and the space inside was not large.

Oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, dazzling.

In the center are several large rice noodle jars, with wooden planks inserted into them, and the price is written.

There is a smell of seasoning that is unique to grocery stores.

On the counter was a black, oil-stained abacus, a papyrus ledger, an oil lamp, and a dirty rag.

Behind the counter, a man who looked to be fifty miles away was lying on a bamboo rocking chair behind the counter, snoring like thunder.

His sideburns and beard have turned gray, and his hair is very thin, and he uses a bamboo chopstick as a hairpin to fix the bun on the top of his head.

His skin is dark, his face is covered with the annual rings of the vicissitudes of time, his mouth is wide and his nose is big, and he vaguely feels that when he is young, he should be a heroic person.

Zhang Mu noticed that on the side of the rocking chair, there were two crutches, and Zhang Mu glanced at his lower body.

Zhang Mu was surprised to find that Wang Mao in front of him turned out to be a disabled person, and one of his legs was gone.

This Wang Mao actually has only one right hand, and his left wrist is bare, and there is nothing.

Zhang Mu sighed lightly, turned around and was about to leave, but collided with a young man.

The young man looked angry, his trouser legs clutched, and his feet were covered in mud.

At that moment, he shouted to Zhang Mu: "You open your eyes ......." ”

However, seeing that Zhang Mu was still a child, he didn't continue, but went straight to the counter and asked, "What do you want?" ”

"I asked for some paper and ink, and when I saw that this old man was resting, I didn't bother." Zhang Mu said with a smile.

The young man said embarrassedly, "I'll get it for you." My dad was old and fell asleep after eating. ”

With that, he headed for the back door.

At this time, Wang Mao yawned and opened his eyes, and the young man happened to come back, holding two packages in his hand, putting them on the counter and saying with a smile: "That's all there is in the store." ”

Zhang Mu picked an inkstone, took a stack of straw paper, and prepared to settle the bill.

Wang Mao asked, "Aren't you going to buy goods?" So you're coming back now? ”

"It's not easy to walk on the road outside the city, I'm afraid that the car will get stuck in it, so I'll go another day when the weather is clear." Then he turned back to Zhang Mu and said, "A total of thirty dollars." ”

Zhang Mu took out the money and put it on the table, turned around and left with his things, and when he got to the side of the carriage, he accidentally glanced back, and saw a person coming out of the backyard wall of the grocery store.

As soon as the guy landed, he was still naked, his pants were not lifted, and while he was dressing, he hurriedly disappeared into the alley.

Zhao Wu also happened to see this scene, pouted and said, "It's a pity, otherwise you can catch the rape in bed." ”

The corners of Zhang Mu's mouth couldn't help but overflow with a smile.

The one who came out of the wall just now was definitely the one who cuckolded Wang Maozai for his son.

Wang Mao's son came back suddenly, and nine times out of ten he was afraid that it was not because the road outside was difficult to walk, but because he suspected that his wife Hongxing was out of the wall and was about to come back to catch the adulterer.

It's a pity that Zhang Mu was in the store just now, and he delayed it for a while, giving the person who stole the incense time to escape, otherwise there should be a good show to watch now.

After getting in the car, Zhang Mu left here.

Wang Monkey doesn't know where he is now, otherwise he can ask him about the current situation of the Wang family, but he can find a breakthrough.

However, the coming day is long, knowing that Wang Mao is here, and he is not afraid that he will run away. (To be continued......)
