Chapter 843: The First Hints (Part II)
"It's better to see it thoroughly." Yu Buzhi nodded and said, "Wen Zhongye and Cai Deqi are not all the way in essence, because of Enyi's actions, when Enyi is exhausted, it is the time to part ways, the more Cai Deqi asks Wen Zhongye to do, the faster Enyi will have to be." I guess it's going to be pretty much the same. ”
This is not blind optimism.
Killing Cao Yin and attacking the deer collar will take a lot of risks.
Especially the former, killing a Taishou canonized by the imperial court, even if it is a Taishou who shoots guilty, is also a real prince, not to mention that at that time, the Kwantung princes and Jingzhou Mansion and Yizhou Mansion jointly investigated the invasion of the Wuling Army, and directly killed Cao Yin, and the intention to kill the mouth was clearly revealed. If a certain force does not follow the investigation to the end, it will be difficult for the "murderer" of Wen Ping to get out of the way, and it will be difficult to be thrown out as a scapegoat.
Fortunately, the Jingzhou government did not want the matter to continue to ferment, and tried every means to end the investigation as soon as possible; Due to the tense relationship between Yizhou and Zhao, the Yizhou government has little interest in the so-called truth of crossing the border; As long as the investigation continues, it means that Yuan Shao's influence has infiltrated Jiangnan, Chen Lin didn't want to withdraw his troops, and he planned to dig deep with great interest and strive to make a big news, but the situation is stronger than people, Yuan Shao's influence in Jingzhou basically depends on his mouth, Jingzhou Mansion and Yizhou Mansion want to borrow the slope to get off the donkey, Chen Lin can only admit it.
Wenpin thus escaped.
Although Wen Ping did not get burned by the killing of Cao Yin, the risk he can bear is real, and if he really wants to investigate, Wen Ping may not die because of this, but the destruction of his future is not alarmist. Then he attacked the deer leader again, committed a crime against the wind, and the consequences were also unpredictable, and Wen Ping still took the errand without hesitation. Objectively speaking, the risks borne by Wenpin's two shots are not something that ordinary kindness can compensate.
"What the lord said is very true, Wen Zhongye's kindness has probably been paid off." Xu Shu said with a smile.
"What's the situation?" Yi Feng was surprised.
"Wen Zhongye gave a secret in exchange for us to let the Jingzhou sailor leave." Xu Shu's expression became serious, and he said solemnly: "He admitted that it was Cai Deqi's cronies who sent the order, and implied that Cai's target was a woman, and it was said that the woman was an orphan of a big family in Xiangyang, and she may have a treasure map in her hand, and Cai's ambition for her was bound to it." In order to achieve the goal, the Cai clan must take action against the deer leader......"
In other words, Cai Deju's goal is not to destroy the Zhulu Leader, break through the main city, find the woman, and Cai's goal can be achieved. It's a pity that the strength of my deer territory is far better than that of ordinary territory, and the Cai clan has repeatedly hired Wuling Kou to arrest them in vain, forcing the Cai clan to continuously escalate their force, and even colluded with the Avengers, and later asked Wuling Taishou and Wen Zhongye to take action at all costs, causing things to get bigger and bigger. ”
Xu Shu spread out his hands and said with a wry smile: "The woman that the Cai family is looking for is Sister Yan Ji in Xiayi." ”
There was silence in the room.
If it is just in exchange for the safe departure of the soldiers under his command, Wenpin does not have to disclose this secret, at least there is no need to be unreserved, some key information can be blurred and can be handed over, but Wenpin does not. He even told the "orphans of a family in Xiangyang" and "treasure maps", and the degree of cooperation was a little too high.
Wen Ping made a move for Enyi, and dared to break through in the face of the sword mountain and the sea of fire, with Huang Zhong's mediation, as well as the tiger skin of Jingzhou Mansion, it is not difficult to protect the sailor, there is no need to explain everything.
Why?
Either Wenpin is unwilling to keep Cai Mao's secrets anymore, or Wenpin already has an opinion on chasing and killing orphan girls!
No matter what the reason is, it shows that what Wen Ping owes Cai Mao has basically come to an end.
This is the reason why Xu Shu said, "Enyi has probably been paid off".
The silence of everyone in the office was not because Wen Ping owed or not, but because Yan Ji was involved. Sister Xu Shuyi was actually Cai's target, which made everyone stunned.
Yu Buzhi and Yi Feng, who knew the inside story, had already guessed that Cai Mao's target was none other than Yan Ji.
Yu Buzhi's expression was indifferent, and he said calmly: "Yuan Zhi, have you confirmed it?" ”
Xu Shu arched his hand and said, "I asked Sister Yi, it's her." ”
"The righteous sister was chased and killed by the Cai family, and she couldn't stay in Xiangyang, so she had to flee alone. On the way, he met Jiaci, Jiaci kindly stayed overnight, and the next day they went their separate ways, but they didn't want to still be caught by Cai's minions, which affected Jiaci, which led to Wulingkou chasing and killing Jiaci, and Shu Zhiqianli escorted. The righteous sister wandered outside for several years, and came to join Jiaci, which eventually led to Cai's strategy of chasing the deer leader, and suffered setbacks one after another, but she still persevered. ”
"There is one thing, let my subordinates explain."
"Sister Yi has no trouble!"
"Although the righteous sister is the introduction of the Cai family's offense, she is only a weak woman, and she does not have many city governments, let alone the idea of hiding here to be alone. The territory has been attacked many times, although Jingzhou forces participated, but Sister Yi never realized that the Cai family came for her, so she has always been at ease. It wasn't until this time that her subordinates came to her to testify against her and told her that the offender was Cai's private soldier, that the righteous sister woke up like a dream, blamed herself for the attack on the territory, and was even more worried about bringing more trouble to the deer leader, so she decided to leave......"
Yu was unwise for a moment, and said in a lost voice: "Yan Ji is gone?" ”
"I left a book that night, ready to say goodbye without saying goodbye, but was stopped by my subordinates." Xu Shu hung his head, not daring to look at everyone.
In the past, he guessed that Yan Ji was the Cai family who came to commit the fuse, and secretly verified it, but the guess was not accurate, there was no real evidence, and the conclusion was arbitrary, and Xu Shu turned a blind eye. Now it is different, there is conclusive evidence that Yan Ji is the key to the attack of a strong enemy, even if Xu Shu knows that Yan Ji is both pitiful and innocent, as the elder of the Zhulu Leader, the henchman of the lord, and the commander of the Zhulu Army, Xu Shu must put the interests of the territory first.
Cai Mao is an important minister of Jingzhou Mansion, and he has the ability to mobilize the power of Jingzhou Mansion when necessary, which is far more than the power of Zhulu Leader, even if Yu Buzhi becomes a prince, he cannot fight the entire Jingzhou with the power of one county. In view of this situation, in order to avoid unnecessary losses, the most rational thing to do is to send Yan Ji away.
But how did Xu Shu do that kind of thing?
He didn't have much affection for Yan Ji before, and even once because he suspected that Yan Ji deliberately sought his mother to avoid trouble, he was dissatisfied with Yan Ji. But as my understanding of Yan Ji deepened, I found that it was not like that at all, Yan Ji was actually a simple woman, although she suffered misfortunes, she still longed for a better life, and she had no bad intentions. Xu Shu was born as a chivalrous man, and he sent the weak into the tiger's mouth in order to protect himself, which violated the heart of chivalry.
What's more, he also has to consider Xu's mother's feelings.
As we all know, Xu Shu is filial piety, Yan Ji is the goddaughter recognized by Xu's mother, knowing that Yan Ji is more than auspicious after leaving the deer collar, how dare Xu Shu let her go, and the old man is angry!
So Xu Shu couldn't let Yan Ji leave secretly.
In reasonableness, in Xinyi, and in filial piety, he must protect Yanji.
But Yan Ji stays to chase the deer for a day, and the shadow of the Cai family will not dissipate for a day.
Xu Shu, who values faith and righteousness, will unexpectedly give birth to troubles such as "doing so is suspected of fake public and private interests", "putting the territory in danger for personal reasons is not a vassal way", and heaven and man are at war.
Yu Buzhi let out a sigh, "Fortunately. ”
"Huh?"
"Yan Ji is a deer chaser." Yu Buzhi's gaze slowly swept over everyone, and said word by word: "Since she is a deer chaser, no matter who wants to trouble her, no matter what her status is, as long as she is a deer chaser, the territory has the responsibility to protect her, there is no other word, everyone remembers it!" ”
"No!" Everyone responded in unison.
Xu Shu didn't say anything, just bowed deeply.
