And his investigation of the case, the identity of the person who spoke in the criminal department, doomed him to personally try this benefactor of the year.

"Because I met a demon!"

Zhuge Yuqi closed his eyes, and the scenes of the night when the merchant was destroyed resurfaced in his mind.

"Everyone in the world thinks that the merchant was destroyed because of his enmity with Ge Xie, the deputy owner of the Netherworld Building, but I know that this is not the case, it is Zhuge Hong who bought Ge Xie and compiled unnecessary things to destroy my business. A groom in my family was so kind to my father and mother that he buried me in a pile of dung, and I smelled the stench of dung and watched him ......be killed! ”

He clenched his fists tightly, his body trembled, and even his voice trembled when he spoke.

"After the killers left, I returned to the hall, but I happened to see Zhuge Hong, a Shibo who often came to my house, taking the dragon pattern jade from my father's corpse that should have belonged to my merchant! Since then, I have sworn that no matter how difficult it is, I will destroy his Zhuge family! Therefore, later, I joined forces with Zhou Duan to destroy the Zhuge family, but I didn't want him to rebel, and even I wanted to kill ......."

At this point, Zhuge Yuqi had calmed down.

He smiled desolate and told Qin Ying everything he had done.

Because of Zhou Duan's backlash, he was completely disfigured, and he was seriously injured and almost died.

Fortunately, he was rescued by Shen Kong, who was favored by him back then, and after recuperating in the Shen family for a period of time, his wounds were no longer in serious trouble.

However, the hatred in my heart lingered.

So, he set up a bureau to guide Sun Yixue to complain about his grievances and uncover the matter of Yongzhou.

There was such a big secret in the events of that year......

"Since you have to save your life, why don't you go to Didu to find me? You know, I'm not going to sit idly by! ”

If that were the case, he wouldn't be what he is today, with blood on his hands.

"Ah Yuan, I know that even if it's just for the sake of me saving your life, you won't be a wall-by-side watcher! But with such a sea of blood and hatred, I can't do it with a fake hand! ”

For many long years, what supported him to live was the obsession of revenge in his heart!

If someone else does this, he doesn't know what the point of his life is.

Zhuge Yuqi's words made Qin Ying fall silent, he couldn't empathize with Zhuge Yuqi, but he understood him.

Outside the northern city, nearly half of the villagers in Yanjia Village ......

"You're wrong, Zhuge Yuqi!"

Jiang Chuge suddenly spoke up, and her words exploded in Zhuge Yuqi's heart like a thunderbolt.

"What do you say? I was wrong? Heh~"

Zhuge Yuqi seemed to have heard a huge joke: "What's wrong with me avenging my family?" Since Zhuge Hong can kill my entire clan for his own selfish desires, what's wrong with me destroying his entire clan to take revenge? There is also Zhou Duan, it is he who is untrustworthy, otherwise I would not have designed it for him! ”

Jiang Chuge disagrees with this idea that because others are bad, he himself must also be bad, or even worse than the other party.

"Merchants are everyone in the rivers and lakes, according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, there is nothing wrong with you looking for Zhuge Hong to take revenge, but you should not unite with corrupt officials and evil officials, conspire to frame them, use all kinds of insidious means, and even implicate the innocent!"

His face was solemn, and his words were beautiful: "What is the difference between you and them when you do this?" If your parents were still here, would they want you to be the way you are? ”

There are other paths to choose from, but you have to take the path you shouldn't take the most.

In order to take revenge on the demon, you will eventually become a demon yourself!

In Jiang Chuge's opinion, Zhuge Yuqi is not only pitiful, but also hateful!

It's hard to hate, but it's also unforgivable!

After she finished speaking, Zhuge Yuqi stood in place for a long time, as if an old monk had settled down, and did not make any moves.

Until Qin Ying got up and walked next to him and gave him a brotherly hug.

His body shook suddenly, pushed him away, his thick eyebrows furrowed, and his expression was dark: "Jiang Chuge is right, I really shouldn't have done all the bad things in order to take revenge, but now it's too late...... Ah Yuan, I made myself like this, I am not qualified to be a brother with you for a long time, you should do business, don't let people catch the handle! ”

Hearing his words, Qin Ying's handsome face was slightly sluggish, and he was silent for a long time, and said: "If there is no matter of Yanjia Village, I will definitely be able to let you get out of the whole body, but now ......"

He sighed deeply: "The man I sent found a letter in your father's clothes, and out of respect for the deceased, I have not opened it all these years. After a while, I will fly the pigeon and send the book back to Didu, and order someone to bring it...... Go back to your place first, and talk about everything until you have read the letter. ”

He is in charge of the Criminal Department, and he is in charge of the trial and prison sentence, and he must give an explanation to the innocent villagers in Yanjia Village who died innocently!

“…… Good! ”

Zhuge Yuqi was silent for a long time, and finally responded.

He took a step back, arched his hands at Qin Ying and Jiang Chuge respectively, and then turned around and took the hat on the table next to him, put it on his head, and strode away.

Seeing that he was leaving, Jiang Chuge moved his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end he gave up.

But her taunted expression that flashed was clearly seen by Qin Ying.

"He's not going to run away!"

At the moment, he let Zhuge Yuqi leave, and he had no purpose of letting him go.

"The prince acted properly, and Jiang Chuge thought about it."

Jiang Chuge lowered his head slightly, and was about to leave, but a guard entered the room to report: "Lord Wang, Lord Jiang, there is a middle-aged man at the door of the post house, who claims to have helped Lord Jiang in the case of Zhou Duan's rebellion, surnamed Shen Mingkong, and wants to ask to see Lord Jiang." I wonder if Master Jiang wants to see him? ”

"If you want to see him, let him in."

Jiang Chuge glanced at Qin Ying, and seeing that he had no objection, he rushed to the guard.

"Yes!"

The guards retreated.

And Qin Ying also left because he wanted to write a letter back to Didu, and Jiang Chuge was the only one left in the main hall in an instant.

Before long, Shen Kong followed the guard into the main hall.

The guards brought him in and retreated, Shen Kong wanted to salute, but was stopped by Jiang Chuge.

"Uncle Shen, if it wasn't for your help, I wouldn't know how to sneak into the Yongzhou Hou Mansion to find evidence, don't bow to me, I won't be happy."

While speaking, Jiang Chuge helped Shen Kong to sit down on a chair in the hall.

"Master Jiang, I'm a rough person, since you say so, I'll just get down to business."

Shen Kong arched his hand at Jiang Chu Ge and said bluntly: "After I helped you infiltrate the Yongzhou Hou Mansion that day, I went to my mother-in-law's house more than a hundred miles to the north with my wife to hide. Later, as soon as I heard that Yongzhou City was besieged by rebels, I knew that Zhou Duan must be doing it. So I sneaked back quietly, but I didn't want to arrive yet, so I heard that the crisis in Yongzhou had been lifted, and Zhou Duan was killed by the eldest young master of the Zhuge family himself! ”

At this point, Shen Kong suddenly paused, frowned, and organized the language in his mind for a long time before continuing: "Since I entered the city last night, I have been wandering around the post house, and sure enough, I saw Zhuge Dashao enter the post house. I waited patiently, and when I found him leaving, his expression was relieved but full of remorse, and I knew that he must have told you about his killing of Zhuge Hong......"

It turned out that since Zhuge Yuqi helped Shen Kong a few years ago, the two have become friends who can trust each other.

Once, Zhuge Yuqi told Shen Kong everything about him after he was drunk.

Although Shen Kong did not participate in a series of illegal acts by Zhuge Yuqi against the Zhuge family and Zhou Duan, he was also an insider.

But he didn't know that Zhuge Yuqi had brutally slaughtered the villagers of Yanjia Village in the northern suburbs of the city.

"Lord Jiang, I beg you to intercede with Lord Yi, for the sake of Zhuge Dashao's killing of all the people who deserve to die, let him be spared death!"

After saying the last half of the sentence, Shen Kong suddenly got up and knelt down at Jiang Chuge.

And Qin Ying Feige passed the book, so that the letter sent by the dark guard to Yongzhou was also delivered on the third day.

After Qin Ying got the letter, he didn't send someone to summon Zhuge Yuqi to come, but directly sent two guards to deliver the letter to the Jiale Inn.

After Zhuge Yuqi read the letter, he asked the guards to tell Qin Ying that he was waiting for him at the inn and had a drink with him.

Qin Ying happily went to the appointment and did not let the guards follow.

In the inn room, the two of them were drinking while reminiscing about the past, taking advantage of the wine, scolding Fang Xuan and pointing out the world......

Until the evening, Zhuge Yuqi Fang sent Qin Ying out of the inn and watched him leave with a smile.

The time of the day passed as if it were uneventful.

As soon as it dawned on the second day, a big event occurred in the Jiale Inn that shook the entire Yongzhou City!

Zhuge Yuqi, the only survivor of the Zhuge and Sun clans who had just been wronged, committed suicide with a knife in the No. 1 room of the Tianzi of the Jiale Inn!

The corpse held a blood-stained letter with a line written on the envelope:

A-Yuan personally opened

Shen Kong, a hunter in the east of the city who had received Zhuge Yuqi's great favor, personally sent this letter to the post house and handed it over to King Yi.

And in accordance with Zhuge Yuqi's last wishes, his body was cremated, put into the ashes, and the family went away, and his whereabouts became a mystery.

A few days later, someone near the ancestral tomb of the merchant, a martial arts master who was wiped out nearly 20 years ago, happened to see a middle-aged man holding a columbarium altar and a woman following him.

Five days later, all the officials who came from Didu to take over the important military and political affairs of Yongzhou arrived, and after completing the handover, Qin Ying decided to leave for Didu.

On the way back, one day, Qin Ying sat in the carriage that Jiang Chuge was riding.

"Do you know what's in his letter to me?" He said.

Jiang Chuge reacted, and only then did he understand who he was referring to, and shook his head slightly.

"The letter I ordered the guards to pass on to him......"

Qin Ying's expression was distant, and there was sadness and regret between his eyebrows: "The letter said that Zhuge Hongnai was invited by Uncle Shang to go to the merchant to discuss the plan to deal with the Northern Poison Saint......"

At this point, he let out another deep sigh, and said for a while: "Although I don't know why things turned out like that, but ...... He killed the wrong person! ”

Jiang Chuge was stunned, she always thought that Zhuge Yuqi committed suicide because she didn't want to embarrass Qin Ying.

Unexpectedly, there is such a secret in this.

Except for the anti-thief Zhou Duan and the like, in this Yongzhou incident, everyone is more or less a victim!

The Yongzhou entourage, from departure to return to Didu, lasted nearly a month and a half.

Leaving fashion is cool autumn, but coming back is already winter.

The four seasons are distinct, and although it is early winter, it is also bitterly cold.

Because it was already night when she entered the city, Qin Ying wanted to arrange for Jiang Chuge to stay in King Yi's mansion for a while, but she politely and resolutely refused.

"Tomorrow, you and I will meet at the gate of the palace, and we will enter the palace together to report on our work, don't be late."

Not wanting to force her, Qin Ying admonished, and sent two guards to escort her back.

Jiang Chuge returned to his residence, cleaned up, and after bathing, it was already his son.

Riding in a carriage was not as uncomfortable as riding a horse, but it was also very bumpy.

She was already exhausted from several days of travel, and her bones were aching because she often missed her lodging and often slept in the wilderness.

As soon as the body touched the soft bed, every cell in the body began to cry for comfort.

Jiang Chuge sighed, and soon fell into a deep sleep, and did not wake up until noon on the second day.

She stretched out comfortably, her eyes slowly narrowing a slit, and she could faintly see the bright sky outside through the pasted window.

Jiang Chuge blinked his eyes twice, reacted to something, and sat up from his bed with a carp suddenly.
