Chapter 304: Killing by Mouth
Yan Jue silently pulled out the chair, Chen Wangshu swaggered down, the moonlight shone in through the window, and fell on her upturned Erlang's legs.
She was looking at Ju Ya, and Ju Ya was also looking at her.
Before in Wei's house, she found that the woman in front of her had an obvious difference from others, that is, whether she was sitting in a weedy pile or being locked up in a prison.
She goes there, and you feel that she is the master of the place.
That kind of confidence that doesn't know where it comes from is simply ridiculous.
"It's late at night, and you're still dressed neatly, and I want to see the veil with your name on it, which I showed you at the banquet. That's what you gave to Taubi. ”
"Taubi is dead, poisoned. For what he has placed with you. It's also what we came to get in Lizhou. You know what happened on the fourth day of September. ”
"Tao Bi was able to entrust you with such an important task when he first came to Lizhou, which makes me very curious about you."
Chen Wangshu said as he observed Ju Ya's expression.
Hearing that Tao Bi was poisoned, she was not surprised at all, but kept showing a nostalgic look.
"You're old acquaintances." Chen Wangshu said lightly.
"You're minding, every time we say something bad about Tao Bi today, you sing a note. It's so subtle that if you weren't a person who is proficient in it, you won't be able to hear it at all. But I happen to be such a person. ”
"You're smart, why are we. Naturally, it was because he didn't want to be the second person to be poisoned by the poison of the Qi Clan. ”
Ju Ya looked at the handkerchief in Chen Wangshu's hand, and the resistance in her eyes dissipated a little, "I am in Lizhou, and I rely on Lord Wei to eat, if I rebel." Or maybe they are deliberately trying to deceive you, but in fact, a net has already been laid around here, and it is difficult for you to fly. How should you? ”
Chen Wangshu chuckled, she turned her head, looked at Yan Jue who was standing behind her, and said lightly, "Kill all the lights, you don't have wings and don't fly, let's just go out with a swagger." ”
"Aren't you the officials of the court? How can an official of the imperial court kill people at will? Ju Ya bit her lip and asked again.
Chen Wangshu yawned a little boredly and put the handkerchief back in his sleeve pocket.
"My husband came to Lizhou on an errand, and the thief saw that we were richly dressed and young and simple, and he actually took advantage of the dead of night to murder the court officials and seize the money."
"In order to get out of danger, we had to fight back, and as a result, we narrowly exterminated the bandits, and got out by luck. What do you think of that? ”
Ju Ya was dumbfounded, and after a long time, she asked again, "People on the other side will be suspicious, why are the mountain bandits so arrogant that even the officials of the court dare to intercept and kill?" ”
Chen Wangshu sighed and asked innocently, "According to the girl, isn't that the mountain bandit someone pretending to be?" In this Lizhou city, who has such a big hand to harm us? ”
Juya was speechless.
Some people kill people with the knife in their hands, and some people kill people with only one mouth.
"If Lord Tao had the intelligence of the county lord, he probably wouldn't have died."
As she spoke, she turned and walked towards the bed, put her hand into her porcelain pillow, and pulled out a small bag.
"This is something that Master Tao gave me for safekeeping, I haven't opened it, and I don't know what it is. Today, it will be handed over to Lord Yan and the county lord. ”
As she spoke, she gently touched the furoshiki and handed it to Chen Wangshu.
"I have known Master Tao since a long time. At that time, I was a few years old. My father was an official, upright, and nosy. Once, he was falsely accused of being imprisoned, and he committed suicide by hanging himself from a beam in prison without surviving for three days. ”
"My mother was not convinced, and she always wanted to overturn the case for my father, so she led me to Lin'an. At that time, Master Tao was still doing imperial history in the Imperial History Terrace, and it was he who overturned the case for my father. ”
"Even though he was young, I remember him. My father was rehabilitated, and my mother led me back to my hometown, and halfway through, I called the crutch to turn around, and came to Lizhou City, and became the Oiran lady here. ”
Ju Ya said, quite lonely.
"The Wei family is in this Lizhou city, and they are the emperor of the soil. When Lord Tao came to Lizhou City, he greeted the whole army as it is today, and called a group of ladies on the Fengyue field to persuade him to drink. ”
"I ended up in such a field, I didn't want to recognize Lord Tao. And I know that there is a big problem with the Wei family, Master Tao is like an old scalper, very stubborn and serious, he will definitely find out the big problem, and then get involved in trouble. ”
"But in the end, I remembered the kindness of Master Tongtao, and quietly sent him a letter, telling him to leave Lizhou immediately after going through the motions, and not to cause death. But he didn't listen. ”
Chen Wangshu nodded, Tao Bi is an upright person, and it is definitely not something that ordinary people can persuade.
"Master Tao lived in Lizhou for a total of ten days. On the tenth day he took this burden and hurried to me. He said that he would leave it with me for a while, and someone would come and pick it up later. ”
He was so anxious that he had beads of sweat on his forehead and injuries on his hands. I drugged him and bandaged him. He also gave him this veil as a token, and it was agreed at that time, saying that he would take this veil in exchange for what he had left here. ”
"I asked him how he was hurt. He said that Lizhou had rotted from the roots, and when he took the thing, he was bumped into by someone. The man was a child, and he knocked the man unconscious, and he ran away. ”
Chen Wangshu sighed, and then said, "He said that he is an official of the imperial court and cannot kill people at will. ”
Ju Ya was stunned for a moment and nodded, "The county lord is smart, that's what Lord Tao said." I knew then that he wouldn't live long. What kind of person Wadley is, others don't know, don't I know? ”
"But the strange thing is that early the next morning, as if he hadn't heard any rumors, Wei Deli reorganized his army, saw off Tao Bi in the middle of the road, and sent a small team of men and horses to escort him directly out of the mountain city."
"If it weren't for the extra stuff in my porcelain pillow, I would have thought I was just dreaming."
Chen Wangshu listened and thought for a while.
This is not difficult to understand, Wei Deli was afraid that he would not have received the news that day, so he poisoned Tao Bi, and the so-called escort was actually surveillance. If he directly killed Tao Bi, then everyone should suspect that there is something wrong with Lizhou.
So not only did he not kill him directly, but he offered him good food and drink, not waiting for the visitors from the capital, and then dying when it was settled.
"And what about the fourth day of September? I suspect it has nothing to do with your benefactor. ”
When Ju Ya heard this, she nervously raised a finger and made a shushing gesture, "The fourth day of the ninth month is a day that everyone in our Lizhou knows about and everyone dares not mention it." ”
