When the lame man woke up on the beach, he realized that his right leg was useless. Fortunately, his family has been a water family for generations, and he knows how to survive on an isolated island, and he also knows how to use the tide direction of the sea to make a raft back to Jizhou. He dragged his stump and spent half a year returning home, only to find that his mother was dead, his fiancée had married someone else, leaving only his grandmother, who was blind from crying.

It was the Lin He family who caused his family to be ruined, so he naturally wanted to find them to theorize, but Lin Guqing beat him out, and He Bai first saw that he came to the door every day to make trouble, and sent him away with fifty taels of silver.

At that time, he was confused, and entered the gambling house with fifty taels of silver, but he fell deeper and deeper. Just when he was beaten unconscious by his creditors, he met a nobleman. The nobleman paid off the debt for him, and only let him run errands for him occasionally. After coming and going, he ran out of some doorways, often passed on a message for people, ran a business, and sometimes sold news to the yamen. But he can swear to God that he has never done anything unreasonable. He also listened to the persuasion of the nobles, and did not think about seeking revenge on the Lin He family, after all, before he returned to Jizhou, the Lin He family had already compensated him and his father for the funeral expenses to his family.

At that moment, the lame king heard Xiao Zhutou's scolding, and fell to the ground and didn't dare to speak. In recent days, the news that he sold to the yamen was all instructed by his benefactor, but the news was true, and he would never betray the nobleman who rescued him.

Seeing that Wang was lame and didn't speak, Xiao Zhutou kicked him on the shoulder again.

Seeing that Wang Cripple fell to the ground, Lin Zhutou grabbed Xiao Zhutou and asked Wang Cripple: "Where did your news come from?" ”

"Lin Zhutou, the little one eats this line of food, and a lot of news is heard on the streets and alleys. Think about it yourself. After verification, I dare to tell you. ”

"The matter of the third master of the He family. Why did you tell Xiao Zhutou, but not Lin Zhutou? Xie San interjected.

The lame man replied fluently: "This lord, when the little one got the news that day, he immediately rushed to the yamen, because Lin Zhutou was not there, and the little one was afraid of delaying the opportunity, so he found Xiao Zhutou." ”

Xiao Zhutou thought about it for a while, when the lame man Wang found him. Lin Zhutou is not there every time. He said angrily: "So you just picked up the news that others didn't want before you thought of selling it to me? ”

The lame king didn't dare to answer, but kept kowtowing to everyone, and reiterated again and again that he did not frame He Baihai.

Although Xiao Zhutou is not as thoughtful as Lin Zhutou, he also knows that the Zou family is jealous in public and burns the objects left by Shui Ting, which is very strange. It's a pity that he searched carefully back and forth, and there was nothing related to Tang An or the former prince. Naturally, he would not admit that he was not doing well. I can only insist that the news given by Wang Cripple is inaccurate.

On the side, Lin Zhutou looked at Xie San thoughtfully. He originally thought that with the death of Feng Jiyang, He Daxu and others. Everything will come to an end, and at this time, Xie San will find out a cripple king.

Xie San felt Lin Zhutou's gaze, looked up at him, and then fell on Wang Cripple. He just wanted to know what the relationship between Shen Jinglun and Feng Jiyang was, and what was the result? Even though Jizhou City was turned upside down, the Shen family still stayed out of the matter. Black scarves, interceptions, exterminations, and so on, more and more people are involved, and the whole thing is becoming more and more complicated.

How deep is the water in Jizhou City?

Xie San was impatient to interrogate Wang Cripple, and he was also tired of Lin Zhutou's inquiring gaze. He said loudly: "Lin Zhutou, I believe that Xiao Zhutou will definitely verify the source of information about whether the third master of the He family has anything to do with Tang An, which made me know that it was Wang Cripple who provided the news to Xiao Zhutou." As for where the news of the lame king came from, it should be possible to speculate a thing or two based on where he often goes in and out these days and who he interacts with. ”

Wang Cripple's face changed slightly, and he kowtowed to Xie Sanzhong, and said eagerly: "My lord, the little one relies on the news given by the brothers to barely eat." If they are allowed to know the Tao, the little one colludes with the yamen, I am afraid that it will ......" He kowtowed again and said in a wailing voice: "My lord, cutting off people's wealth is like killing your parents......"

"Cripple Wang, do you think you can still keep this financial road?" Xiao Zhutou snorted coldly, "You persuade you to confess honestly, otherwise you ......" He kicked at Wang's lame right leg.

Wang lame shrank for a moment, bowed his head and said: "Xiao Zhutou, it's not that the small one is unwilling to confess, but the small one is not clear!" He looked helpless, and said with a burning statement: "It's like the matter of Master He San, the little one noticed his family at the beginning, and it was Master He's business that was smooth sailing, and a large number of fabrics were shipped to the country every year. At that time, the little one only secretly remembered this matter, until the little one overheard that the first prince and the rest of the party had gone to the Wa Kingdom, and the little one was only puzzled......"

Xie San silently listened to Wang Cripple's narration. Ten years ago, when the first prince was given death by the first emperor, he was not in the capital, but he vaguely heard that the first prince and the first princess died, but no one had seen the body of Zhao Yi, the son of the first prince and the eldest grandson of the first emperor. It is said that Zhao Yi was very loved by the emperor's grandparents since he was a child, and he was able to leave Beijing alive because of the acquiescence of the emperor.

However, if the rumors are true, Feng Jiyang and others should be in the Wa Kingdom, how can they appear in Jizhou?

Thinking of this, Xie San's heart beat wildly.

Three years ago, there was no trace of the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver obtained by Feng Jiyang's fraud, and the murderer of He Daxu and others had no clue. Feng Jiyang appeared in Jizhou, is it because Zhao Yi is also there?

If that's the case, everything makes sense.

Fourteen years ago, Shen Jinglun was the champion of high school, and on the Jinluan Palace, the emperor sighed that he was the youngest champion of this dynasty. The first prince hoped that he could accompany Zhao Yi, the eldest grandson of the same age, to study, and the first emperor agreed. In the following four years, Zhao Yi and Shen Jinglun were almost inseparable, until the first prince's rebellion broke out, and Shen Jinglun was imprisoned.

According to Xie San's thoughts, the relationship between Shen Jinglun and Zhao Yi must be very good, otherwise Shen Jinglun would not have recognized the royal tribute, the jade pendant named "Peony Beauty". Therefore, it is entirely possible for Zhao Yi to go to Jizhou to find Shen Jinglun, but in the month he monitored the Shen family, Shen Jinglun did not interact with unknown men, even if it was Feng Jiyang, he failed to step into the gate of the Shen family. As for Feng Jiyang's side, Xie Zhenghui has been tracking him for more than half a year, and he hasn't heard him mention Zhao Yi.

Thinking of this, Xie San unconsciously twisted his eyebrows. It is said that he left Beijing when he was a child and had never seen Zhao Yi and Shen Jinglun and others more than ten years ago, Xie Zhenghui should have seen them.

No matter! Xie San pressed down his excitement, interrupted the gushing Wang lame, and raised his voice and said, "Okay, you said so much, but it's just a prevarication." Lin Zhutou, Xiao Zhutou, as I just said, if you want to know where the news of Lu Dao came from, the most direct and easiest way is to find out where he has been in the past month and who he has talked to, and everything will naturally be clear. ”

Xie San said it simply, in fact, this move is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it will definitely startle the snake. Xiao Zhutou wanted to persuade, but was stopped by Lin Zhutou.

Lin Zhutou arched his hand at Xie San, nodded and said: "Xie Sanye don't worry, I will send all the brothers to go out together, don't say that Wang Cripple has seen anyone or said anything, even if he has eaten a few grains of rice, he must find out clearly." “

When the lame king heard this, his face turned pale. Seeing Lin Zhutou shouting loudly at his subordinates, he turned around and was about to leave, he hugged Lin Zhutou's calf and said in a wailing voice: "Lin Zhutou, the little one is not lying, Master He San is indeed weird, this matter has nothing to do with the nobles......"

"What nobleman?" Lin Zhutou looked solemn.

Wang's lame face was even more ugly, and he dragged Lin Zhutou's trouser leg to the end, and denied it repeatedly: "No, it's not...... When the little one revealed the news to Xiao Zhutou before, he said that the little one was just hearsay. ”

Lin Zhutou kicked away the king's lame man, and said angrily: "Stupid man, he was taken advantage of, and he blindly shielded that person!" ”

The lame king was stunned for a moment, and then heard Xie San smile at him and said, "Since your noble person has nothing to do with everything, what can we do if we go to him and ask?" If you push back, you have already become suspicious, or you know the inside story. ”

"No, it's not." Wang lame crawled to Xie San's feet on his knees, straightened his waist and said, "It is impossible to be ungrateful. Seven or eight years ago, if it weren't for the help of nobles, I would have been beaten to death by creditors! ”

Seven or eight years ago, it was almost when Feng Jiyang appeared in Jizhou and met Lin Jiabai. Xie San and Lin Zhutou exchanged a look, and Xie San said again: "In this way, your noble man came to Jizhou seven or eight years ago and happened to save you, so all these years, you have always wanted to repay his kindness?" ”

Without waiting for the lame man to speak, Lin Zhutou said: "No matter what kind of kindness, after seven or eight years of saddle and horse, everything has been paid off." ”

"The noble man has never begged for retribution, let alone asked me to do anything for him." The lame king swore an oath.

"Really, haven't?" Xie San chuckled disdainfully, "Aren't you trying to shield him now?" I guess this isn't the first time, right? ”

……

Under the singing and harmony of Xie San and Lin Zhutou, Wang Cripple unknowingly revealed a lot of information about the "nobles", plus Lin Zhutou was extremely familiar with Jizhou City, and he knew the giants who often went in and out of Jizhou City, and soon locked the suspect.

Half an hour later, when Lin Zhutou and his subordinates broke into the Tianzi room of the largest inn in Jizhou City, the shopkeeper of the inn was so anxious that he wiped his sweat and said: "Lin Zhutou, Yu Gongzi is a serious businessman, and he has lived in the Tianzi room of the small shop at this time all these years-" His voice was stuck, just because he saw that the room was empty and his luggage was gone.

Xie Sansan stepped into the room, and saw an envelope in the center of the table, with the inscription on the front: Xie Sanye personally opened.

Xie Sanyi grabbed the envelope and pulled out the letterhead, and there was only one sentence on the letterhead with a faint floral fragrance: Shen Jinglun must take full responsibility for Miss Xie's death. (To be continued......)
