The demise of the wind and rain building, for ordinary people, may just be a conversation after dinner, but for those who have a heart, it is a naked warning, the huge wind and rain building will be extinguished, not to mention a corrupt official, many people are nervous, just aware of this atmosphere, Wang Jiangshuo has a pride on his face that can not be concealed, you forced Lao Tzu to leave Pingjiang Mansion almost to Shi, today Lao Tzu must give you a little bit of a good look, but when Wang Jiangshuo is full of confidence, there is a blow to the head.

In the evening, Wang Jiangshuo had dinner and tasted tea quite leisurely, but at this moment, a brocade robe strode in. The brocade-robed man was about forty, thin and weak, and his whole body was full of shrewdness, especially the light in a pair of slender eyes flickered, especially like when he was in trouble today, his flickering eyes seemed to be thinking about how to find excuses. Linghu Ji, a small official in Pingjiang Mansion, Wang Jiangshuo knew this person when he was appointed as the chief historian of Pingjiang, and he flattered and drilled into the air.

Walking into the lobby, Ling Huji immediately bowed down and said, "The little one has seen Lord Wang." ”

Glancing at Linghu Ji, Wang Jiangshuo paid attention to the teacup again, and said lightly: "No courtesy, what's the matter?" ”

Linghu Ji immediately replied: "Lord Hui, Zhao Ping is dead. ”

With a snort, Wang Jiangshuo, who was taken aback, actually squirted out a mouthful of tea, and then stared straight at Ling Huji and said, "What did you say?" ”

Seeing Wang Jiangshuo's frosty face, the fox became more and more cautious, and said cautiously: "Lord Wang, the Pingjiang Mansion has just received the news that Zhao Ping drowned at home, and many people rushed over. ”

Zhao Pingnai is Wang Jiangshuo's old rival Pingjiang Taishou Zheng Yu's master, bookkeeper, and absolute confidant, who knows many secrets of Zheng Wei and records them, so Wang Jiangshuo put the breakthrough on Zhao Ping when he entered Pingjiang Mansion. More than ten days have passed, Wang Jiangshuo tried his best to make Zhao Ping and Zheng Yu have a gap and learned a lot of things from Zhao Ping's mouth, but the most important thing is missing, confidential account books, but Zhao Ping committed suicide at this moment, how can Wang Jiangshuo not be angry? Moreover, without the confidential account books, it is entirely possible for Zheng Wei to beat the Seventh Prince and say that he was framed.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Wang Jiangshuo glared at Ling Huji fiercely, and shouted: "Didn't I tell you earlier, I must be careful about Zhao Ping, this is your reply to this official?" Rubbish. In the angry shouting, Wang Jiangshuo got up and shouted: "Zhao Mansion." ”

Anxious about the cause of Zhao Ping's death, anxious about the confidential account book, Wang Jiangshuo was fast all the way, but when he arrived at Zhao Mansion and met his old rival, Pingjiang was too guarded by Zheng Yu. Zheng Yu has a slender figure and a straight waist, a kind of wind and frost that has been tempered by hard years on his handsome face, his eyes are shining, and he is frightening in depth and seriousness, but there is a smile on his face, describing a strange and special style.

Seeing Wang Jiangshuo, Zheng Yan's smile became brighter and brighter, but it dimmed in an instant, and sighed: "Zhao Ping has followed this official for decades, and he doesn't want to drown, which is embarrassing, and it also alarms Lord Wang's big driver, ashamed." At the end of the words, Zheng Yu even hugged his fists and saluted Wang Jiangshuo.

Staring at Zheng Yu, Wang Jiangshuo seemed to want to see some flaws on his face, but unfortunately disappointed Wang Jiangshuo. Even if the two of them fought fiercely, the etiquette on the bright face still had to be maintained, Wang Jiangshuo symbolically replied with a salute, and then said with a smile: "If the official remembers correctly, Zhao Ping, like Lord Zheng, is a native of Jiangnan, and he has a very good water nature, and he actually drowned in his own house, what a misstep!" The official was very curious and came to investigate. ”

Zheng Wei couldn't hear the sarcasm in Wang Jiangshuo's words, but his expression did not change at all, and he said: "Ben Taishou also feels strange, so he happens to investigate with Lord Wang, not to mention that Zhao Ping has followed the official for decades, and he must give him an explanation, otherwise the official will be uneasy." Lord Wang, please. ”

If Wang Jiangshuo expected it to be true, Zhao Ping's death would definitely be inseparable from Zheng Yu, seeing that he was so brazen, he walked in after a cold snort, seeing this, Zheng Yan smiled to himself and followed.

Seeing that Taishou Zheng Yu and Qincha Wang Jiangshuo came together, although everyone was strange in their hearts, they immediately made way of a passage, and at the end of the passage was Zhao Ping's corpse. Zhao Ping is not tall and slightly fat, it should be because of drowning, he has a high belly, and his already fair face is even paler, perhaps, because he is afraid. Zhao Ping knelt on his side, and there were men and women who should be his heirs, wives and concubines.

Seeing Zhao Ping's corpse, Zheng Yu and Wang Jiangshuo's expressions immediately became different. Although there was a touch of sadness on Zheng Yu's face, how strange it was to look at it, as for Wang Jiangshuo, there was undisguised anger on his face, his eyes were wide as if he wanted to choose someone to eat, and all the officials who watched lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him. In the end, Wang Jiangshuo's eyes fell on Zheng Yu, and said coldly: "Zheng Taishou's master can actually fall into the water, it seems that Taishou is not using people properly!" ”

Zheng Wei couldn't hear the sarcasm in Wang Jiangshuo's words, but said with a look of concern: "Zhao Ping is usually cautious and cautious, I heard that he fell into the water and drowned, the official still can't believe it, and now when he sees his corpse, God will make people!" If you are cautious on weekdays, why don't you look at the road well? ”

Wang Jiangshuo heard the meaning of Zheng Yan's words, Zhao Ping should not choose Wang Jiangshuo's path. It should be angry, Wang Jiangshuo actually laughed, opened his mouth and said: "Zheng Taishou is right, Zhao Ping was really blind before he lost his footing and died." In the last four words, Wang Jiangshuo deliberately raised his voice, and then brushed his sleeves and left.

Looking at Wang Jiangshuo's back, the corners of Zheng Yu's mouth pulled up a smile, and said lightly: "Lord Wang walks slowly, and the official will not send it." ”

Leaving the Zhao Mansion and walking to no one's place, Ling Huji, who had been following Wang Jiangshuo, finally opened his mouth and asked cautiously: "My lord, the guards on your side are all masters, why don't you conduct an autopsy?" Zhao Ping's face was full of fear, obviously he had been killed. ”

Wang Jiangshuo was already furious, and after listening to Ling Huji's words, he glared at him fiercely, and said coldly: "Do you think this official can't see it?" Let's not talk about whether it can be tested, even if it is really tested, what if it is really tested, do you want the official to search for the murderer with all his might? Since he dares to do it, he is not afraid that others will find out about him, and he wastes energy and time in vain, saying that he is trying to lead his official astray. Speaking of this, Wang Jiangshuo glared at Ling Huji again, his eyes obviously seemed to say that he was an idiot, and Ling Huji was embarrassed for a while, but his face was full of respect and admiration, and he praised: "The eyes of adults are like torches, and the small ones are admired and admired." ”

Seeing Ling Huji's face, Wang Jiangshuo's face finally eased, and after thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice: "The most important thing now is the account book, only by getting the account book can Zheng Yu's death point be counted, otherwise he can beat the official back." ”

Sensing the change in Wang Jiangshuo's expression, Ling Fox Ji's face became more and more respectful, and he asked cautiously: "But, now that Zhao Ping has been killed, how can I find the account books?" ”

Wang Jiangshuo should have thought of something, a sneer appeared on his solemn face, and said: "When the official was squeezed out of Jiangnan, Zhao Ping jumped the most joyful and highest, hmph, this time he was able to cooperate with the official, of course, the official was willing to take heavy profits regardless of the previous suspicions, but he was smart enough to perceive that Zheng Yu was already in the west and wanted to leave a way out for himself, so he made friends with the official, and the reason why he kept the account books was just to bargain with the official, and he didn't want to be smart but was mistaken by the smart, and was plotted by Zheng Wei. At this point, Wang Jiangshuo glared at Linghu Ji again, and Ling Huji was shocked when he saw it, and immediately said loyally: "My lord, the little one is loyal and dedicated to doing things for adults, and he will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire." ”

Wang Jiangshuo looked at Ling Huji meaningfully for a moment, and the smile of Ling Huji who looked straight at him was a little numb before he opened his mouth and said: "This official will not let you go to the soup to fight the fire, as long as you do one thing, this official will give you the first credit." ”

Listening to Wang Jiangshuo's tone, Ling Fox knew that it would not be a good thing, but how could he refuse? Therefore, Ling Fox Ji said with a smile: "The adults are polite, the little life is given by the adults, and I am willing to serve the adults and horses." ”

Wang Jiangshuo seemed to be very satisfied with Ling Huji's answer, his face showed a satisfied look, and at the same time he lowered his voice and said: "Zhao Ping is cautious in nature, since he can betray Zheng Yu and cooperate with this official, he will definitely be more and more careful, that account book must be hidden by him somewhere, if you are smart enough to find the account book, this official will take you to meet the Seventh Prince, if the Seventh Prince is happy, allowing you to be an official and a half is enough for you to be used for life." ”

Although he knew that Wang Jiangshuo promised an empty promise, it still made Ling Hushuo's heart move, because he was conceited that he was smart enough, and all he lacked was the appreciation of nobles. Thinking so in his heart, Ling Fox Ji's expression became more and more respectful, and he said: "It is a small honor to be able to do things for adults, adults can rest assured, and the small ones must try their best to find the account books." ”

Nodding, Wang Jiangshuo waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, be careful, Zhao Ping is a lesson from the past." ”

Listening to Wang Jiangshuo's words that seemed to care about but were actually warnings, Ling Huji's heart still trembled, and he responded more and more carefully: "Little Lord Xie cares, say goodbye." ”

Seeing that Linghu was moving away, Wang Jiangshuo thought for a moment and waved his hand to summon a man in gray. The gray-clothed man has an ordinary appearance and plain eyes, how he looks ordinary, how he looks like an old servant, but in the face of this old servant, Wang Jiangshuo's expression is very respectful, because the old servant is the servant of King Chu Haoyuan, and he was specially handed over to him when he entered Jiangnan this time. Looking at the old servant, Wang Jiangshuo said respectfully: "Elder Wei, Zhao Ping has been cautious and has always been reluctant to hand over the account books to this official, and with Zhao Ping's temperament, he will definitely leave the rubbing. Ling Hu Ji is smart enough, and the official promises heavy profits, he will definitely try his best to find the account books, but the official can think of it, and Zheng Yu can also think of it, for fear that he will have to trouble Wei Lao to get the account books back. ”

Facing Wang Jiangshuo, the old servant's expression remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "My lord, be polite, take your leave." With a bow, the old man in gray turned and left, and soon disappeared.

Seeing the gray-clothed old man leave, a smile appeared on Wang Jiangshuo's face, and he said in his heart: "Zheng Yu, Zheng Yu, you are smart this time, but you were mistaken by being smart, this official is just befriending Zhao Ping five times, I didn't expect you to really can't help it, hum, this time look at who will kill the deer." Thinking so in his heart, Wang Jiangshuo strode away.
