Chapter 203: Innocence

As an old fritter who has been in the officialdom for many years, Zhou Zhi knew that it was his turn to stand in line, so Zhou Zhi pretended to be looking at the account book carefully, but in fact, he was calculating in his heart which side would be more beneficial to himself.

This Zhao Cheng, I heard that there are big officials in the court to protect him, but no one knows who that big official is, and Tang Jiu is the deputy general of the tiger and wolf military camp, this identity is naturally not in his eyes, what he cares about is that Tang Jiu actually held the token that was given the power of life and death by the emperor back then, that is amazing.

Therefore, Zhou Zhi secretly made up his mind in his heart, standing on Tang Jiu's side first, and talking about the future later.

You always have to save your own life.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhi coughed, and looked at Zhao Cheng with a little coldness in his eyes, "Zhao Cheng, the official just took a general look, this worker named Zuo Wu bought nearly a thousand pieces of soap in a few days......

Even the title has been changed, and it is no longer Zhao Guanshi, but directly called Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Cheng always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of it, but when he heard that Zhou Zhi was right, he nodded, "What the adults said is extremely true." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Zhi's voice had already sounded again, "It's just that the official has a doubt, why did this Zuo Wu have to buy it so many times?" ”

"Adults don't know, this left five is petite, lacks strength, and can't hold a lot of soap at a time, so I divide it a lot of times." Zhao Cheng thought that his answer was very thorough, but he didn't see Yuan Jie's expression of hatred for iron and steel.

Tang Jiu stood aside, squinting at Tang Jiu, a sneer crossing the corner of his mouth.

When Lin Jinxiu heard this explanation, she squinted her eyes slightly, Zhao Cheng himself is a fool, is it possible to treat everyone as a fool?

Thinking of this, Lin Jinxiu was about to speak, but she heard the county master Zhou Zhi slap the stunned wood, and his expression was ugly, "Zhao Cheng, you are so bold, you are actually deceiving the official." ”

Zhao Cheng was stunned, but he muttered a little in his heart, didn't he say that Zhou Zhi was stupid like a pig, how did he know that he had deceived him? Of course, even if you knew, you wouldn't be able to admit it.

"My lord, what are you talking about, why can't I understand?"

"Why did you ask a petite man to buy so much soap? Why don't you take a carriage with you, if you have one, you still need to spend so much trouble? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Cheng couldn't stop sneering, "My lord's words are wrong, let whoever I want to buy it, according to my lord's meaning, why am I doing this?" ”

"Naturally, it's to cover up the traces and hide the fact that you bought soap from Lin Jinxiu."

"Ha, my lord, if that's the case, why am I directly picking it out now?" Zhao Cheng shook his head, "My lord, you are too obvious. ”

When he said the last sentence, Zhao Cheng's tone suddenly had a bit of gloom, and the fierce light in his eyes made Zhou Zhi's back instantly have goosebumps, Zhou Zhi understood what Zhao Cheng meant almost instantly, he knew that he was on Tang Jiu's side, so he was warning himself? Could it be that the power of the person behind him was even more powerful than Tang Jiu?

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhi couldn't help but gasp in his heart, and he was really a little afraid in his heart, could it be that he was really on the wrong side, and it was too late to correct it now?

But soon, Zhou Zhi calmed down his mood and spoke again, his tone was much softer and more tactful, "What Steward Zhao said is not entirely unreasonable, Lin Jinxiu, do you still have something to say?" ”

Hearing the change of Zhou Zhi's name for Zhao Cheng back and forth, Lin Jinxiu was probably able to guess the psychological changes of Zhou Zhi, Rao is Xianggong has a token that can determine life and death, and Zhou Zhi can still hesitate like this, it seems that the identity of Zhao Cheng must not be simple.

"Naturally, there is something to say." Lin Jinxiu nodded, and said without humility or arrogance, "My lord, I brought a piece of soap from Steward Zhao's Jixiang Huanyi Workshop yesterday, and compared it with my own soap, and found that the two pieces of soap are different. ”

"Hmph, you must have deliberately sold the bad soap to me, wanting to make something happen to my Huanyifang, but I didn't expect me to tell people the truth, people go to your shop to make trouble, you realize that stealing chickens is not a loss of rice, since there is a problem, the soap is naturally different, do you need to say?"

Zhao Cheng's rare brain was a little better, and he hurriedly wanted to block Lin Jinxiu's mouth.

Lin Jinxiu nodded, "What Steward Zhao said is very true, but there is one thing that please pay attention to, but all the soap sold from me, there is never a problem, but there is a problem with Steward Zhao, I think there must be something in this that we don't know." ”

"What's the matter?" Zhao Cheng exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Could it be that you think that I did something in it to frame you?" ”

Lin Jinxiu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Of course, Steward Zhao will naturally not do such a bad act, but it does not prevent someone from making trouble in it to deliberately provoke the relationship between the two of us, Steward Zhao, do you think what I said is reasonable?" ”

Lin Jinxiu's eyes were as bright as starlight, and he looked at Steward Zhao with a burning look, the latter was a little weak-hearted, so he had to cough and nodded, "I don't rule out this possibility." ”

Zhou Zhi didn't know how to judge it, "This matter will have its own ...... when the official investigates it well."

Before the two words of conclusion could be spoken, they had already been interrupted by Tang Jiu.

"Since Steward Zhao also agrees that someone is deliberately sowing discord among them, then the person who has the most contact with these soaps thinks that the one who is the fifth on the left, if you find someone, you can know it when you ask."

Zhou Zhi glared, Vice General Tang, you know, but there is no such person as Zuo Wu, but Tang Jiu didn't look at Zhou Zhi at all, just looked at Zhao Cheng quietly.

That Zhao Cheng obviously didn't expect Tang Jiu to make such a request, but it was reasonable, and in his opinion, "Zuo Wu" was his own person, and he would definitely not talk nonsense, so he nodded and agreed.

At this moment, it was Zhou Zhi's turn to be stunned, these two people sang and harmonized, but the "left five" was obviously a non-existent person.

"My lord, you can go to my shop and find Zuo Wu directly."

Seeing Zhao Cheng's serious lying, Zhou Zhi had no choice but to call Master Qian over in a daze, and asked him to take someone to find that Zuo Wu, Master Qian looked like he wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it, so he had to keep handing over his eyes to the county master.

Where can I find someone who doesn't exist at all?

However, the county magistrate didn't notice Master Qian's sad and sad face at all, and waved his hand directly, "Master Qian, go and come back quickly." ”

Ouch, my county master, where can I find someone?

But Master Qian didn't dare to show anything on his face, so he had no choice but to find "Zuo Wu".
