Chapter 341: His Prey
The couple once again had a disagreement over how to deal with the Shushu siblings.
Qi Yunshu thought that Zhao Jing was a little too unscrupulous to achieve his goal, but Zhao Jing thought that he had not done anything wrong, because he had achieved his goal after all.
Not only caught the assassins who came to assassinate the sister and brother, but also protected them from the fate of being hunted down again, and also found out the secret behind the Hu family!
Why not?
But it is obvious that Qi Yunshu doesn't think so, Zhao Jing can't explain much, he understands her, as long as it is something she doesn't agree with, he will only be regarded as a quibble by her if he says more.
Therefore, he specially changed the topic: "Shushu is not a simple teenager, after this incident, it is better to take it with him and teach more, and the future is limitless!" ”
Qi Yunshu sighed, Zhao Jing will not understand after all, there is only one human life, this time he arranged it properly, and Zhao Yu is also a capable person, if it ...... But if there is a little accident, this sister and brother will not survive!
It's not that she doesn't want to find out about the case, at least not to risk her life!
She also knew that she was a little too virgin, but in her heart, Shushu and Yingying had a life-and-death friendship with her, and the feelings were always different!
After this discussion, neither of the two of them persuaded anyone, and Qi Yunshu had a lot of complaints about Zhao Jing's approach in her heart.
Even thought that if one day, the Shushu sisters and brothers were replaced by themselves, in order to achieve certain goals, Zhao Jing would not hesitate to use himself as a law code!
It's already sour enough to think about this matter, and at this time, Zhao Jing was busy with official business, and there were many things in his heart because of the change in this matter, so he didn't notice the change in Qi Yunshu's mind for a while, so that an invisible dark thunder was buried between the two of them!
However, Zhao Jing's tough methods did work, and the masked man who was arrested failed to withstand the torture that Zhao Yu came overnight, and the news came early the next morning that he had been recruited.
Qi Yunshu immediately followed Zhao Jing to the alley in the east of the city where he was being held.
This is a plain courtyard from the outside, the courtyard wall is not high, planted with green creepers, at this time the weather is cold, some have turned yellow leaves, and there is weakness lying on the gray courtyard wall.
When he entered it, Qi Yunshu found that this place was a sparrow, although it was small, and all the rooms were neat, but they were all locked, and they were locked in a firewood room in the backyard.
It was said that it was a firewood room, but there were a number of torture instruments inside, and the black-clothed man who was arrested was lying on the ground, full of blood, and he was already lifeless!
Qi Yunshu only glanced at it, and was pulled out by Zhao Jing.
"He is a person from the Yellow Mansion, and they also did it to capture those people in the post house before, the purpose is to assassinate the Shushu family!"
The confession of the man in black only confirmed Zhao Jing's previous guess, and the freshness only pulled out the Huang family.
Qi Yunshu was shocked: "The Huang family is the mother of the four princes, and when the Chuzhou case occurred, the four princes were there, and the relationship was already very close, could it be that they were instructed by him!" ”
Zhao Jing nodded approvingly, I have to say that Qi Yunshu's sense of power and smell is very sensitive, just a little dial, and he can get through!
Zhao Jing said again: "But what the lady probably didn't expect is that there is another person who plays an important role." ”
Qi Yunshu raised her eyebrows.
"Liu Cailian!" Zhao Jing told Qi Yunshu all the words he took out from the man in black.
"There is a restaurant near the post house of the Criminal Department, the name is called Quanjude, it is she who has been secretly watching the post house and passing information to them, and Hu Shi returned to the post house, and she found it and reported it for the first time.
Because the time was urgent, the killing was a little hasty, and before I had time to arrange it as an accident, I planted it on the head of the ruffian in the market! ”
In fact, what Zhao Jing didn't finish saying was that the Hu family was not all framed for the scoundrels in the market, after the Hu family's death, they also committed the theft of the corpse of the female cadre, and their behavior was extremely bad!
Therefore, when Zhao Jingming knew that they did not kill anyone, he did not stop the Shuntian Mansion from arresting people, anyway, with their ability and that nest mansion Yin, they could only arrest some gangsters, and it was impossible to expect them to offend the Huang Mansion for the sake of a mere Hu clan!
"But this matter can only be broken here!" Zhao Jing began to weigh the pros and cons again at a critical moment!
Qi Yunshu was slightly dissatisfied: "Since you know that behind the Huang Mansion are the four princes, and you have the account book in hand, why don't you make a move?" ”
"It's not time yet!" Zhao Jing was helpless, why was his lady so anxious? I wanted to explain it to her again, but Liu Zhibai suddenly hurried to inform him that Princess Beidi on the other side of the post house had something to look for him, and asked him to hurry back to support him.
As soon as Qi Yunshu heard Yelu Qingqing's name, she remembered that she had been deceived by her in Liangzhou City, and she was disgusted, urging Zhao Jing to leave quickly, and she would go back by herself.
This place is only a quarter of an hour's drive away from the post house where the Beidi mission is located, but it is half an hour's drive away from Zhao's mansion, and Zhao Jing naturally has no way to send her, so he has to tell her to be careful on the road.
"This is Shuntianfu, what are you afraid of at the feet of the Son of Heaven!" Qi Yunshu muttered angrily.
Zhao Jing knew that she was angry now, and it was not easy to provoke her, so he planned to go back at night and coax her well, so he had to be busy with official business first.
As soon as Zhao Jing left, Qi Yunshu walked around the small courtyard casually, Zhao Yu accompanied her and wanted to invite her back, but she opened her mouth and didn't say it, but Qi Yunshu and Zhao Yu met in the middle courtyard.
Zhao Yu frowned when he saw Qi Yunshu: "Why are you here?" "Could it be that the master is willing to tell her all his secrets? She suddenly had a stump in her heart, couldn't she even keep the most important corner after all?
Qi Yunshu hadn't seen her for a long time, and she had probably forgotten the unpleasant thing that happened last time, but now she was questioned like this as soon as they met, and she couldn't help but scold her: "Naturally, Zhao Jing brought me here, I don't believe you asked Zhao Yu!" ”
Zhao Yu was stunned, she naturally knew that this small courtyard looked simple, but if it wasn't for the master himself, no one would want to enter without permission!
She was just unwilling, she gritted her teeth and couldn't help but say: "Even if you enter this courtyard now, the master may not necessarily put you at ease!" ”
Qi Yunshu looked back, what kind of courtyard is this yard, on the surface, she felt a little unusual, but listening to Zhao Yu's meaning, it seems that there is a greater meaning for Zhao Jing!
With this doubt, Qi Yunshu was not in the mood to fight with Zhao Yu again, and left in a hurry, she must ask Zhao Jing for a clear understanding tonight, so as to teach her to know herself, when she finally agreed with Zhao Jing in her heart, what did he think of her?
On the way back, Qi Yunshu did not go back to Zhao's Mansion directly as Zhao Yu hoped, but turned a corner and went to the post house where Shushu's family once stayed.
Standing in front of the post house, she looked to the west, where there was indeed a restaurant: all gathered!
However, Qi Yunshu only glanced there, and immediately a shocking feeling came.
She felt a pair of intimidating eyes staring at her.
Although she was a little afraid, she didn't want to become someone else's prey in a daze, and she didn't even know who the other party was, so she subconsciously looked down to search for the owner of those eyes.
What caught my eye was a purple and blue brocade robe, and a cold face.
"Ah...... How is he! Qi Yunshu was startled, and couldn't help but squeeze the silk handkerchief in his hand.
Zhao Yu didn't know why: "What's the matter?" He looked around, but he didn't notice that there were killer assassins or the like lurking around, so he didn't understand Qi Yunshu's surprise.
"Look at the second window on the east side!" Qi Yunshu didn't dare to look any more, and quietly guided Zhao Yu to look.
Zhao Yu looked at it fixedly, but he was even more puzzled, he didn't see anything: "There is only an empty window!" ”
He really couldn't figure out what Qi Yunshu asked him to see.
"Is there no one there, there is obviously a ......" Qi Yunshu quietly stared at it again, and sure enough, the window where the four princes had stayed before was empty.
Qi Yunshu stroked her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, it's good to go, it's good to go, I don't know why, every time she sees the fourth prince, she always feels that he is a little terrifying.
As soon as my heart was put down, I heard the magpie shouting loudly behind me: "Master, be careful! ”
Qi Yunshu turned her head, a luxurious carriage was rushing towards her, its coming was fierce, and seeing that it was about to hit her, Qi Yunshu was so frightened that she went into cardiac arrest, her legs stiffened for a while, and she stood in place and closed her eyes.
A fierce wind blew, carrying the unique smell of animals on horses, Qi Yunshu squeezed her brows, and the uncomfortable taste made her open her eyes.
Zhao Yu and Magpie stood in front of her, both of them unsheathed their long swords, and the carriage stopped five paces away from her.
She gasped for breath intermittently, her right hand clenched hard, her left hand rested on her chest, and her heart beat like a drum.
It took a while for her to regain her strength, and she looked at the carriage, the curtain of which moved slightly, and the owner of the carriage seemed to hesitate to lift the curtain.
Fear was followed by anger, Qi Yunshu pulled down the magpie and Zhao Yu, smiled gratefully at the two, thanked them for their protection, and then looked at the initiator in the carriage.
The fourth prince pulled the curtain with a jade flute, revealing a gloomy and cold smirk: "It's really a coincidence that there is no book, I didn't expect the little lady I fell in love with Chuzhou to see it in the capital, so as not to let me run to Chuzhou again!" ”
Qi Yunshu's heartbeat accelerated again, she looked around, fortunately the magpie and Zhao Yu were there, and it was a bustling neighborhood at noon, and there were people coming and going everywhere, she didn't believe that the four princes dared to deal with her openly, so she straightened her waist and said:
"What are the four princes kidding? I, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Marquis of Wenqing, don't stay in the capital, where should I go? ”
She could see the fiery heat in the slender eyes of the fourth prince's cold face, which was a kind of paranoia about what she had fancied.
She suspected that the Four Princes had treated her as an object at all, an object that she wanted but had not been able to get for a long time.
This kind of realization made Qi Yunshu panic and scared, so she chose to fight for the reputation of the Hou Mansion!
Although in terms of the land price and identity of the four princes, the Wenqing Marquis Mansion is too insignificant in his opinion, but also said that she is not from the grassroots nameless, but the eldest daughter-in-law of a famous family in the capital.
The fourth prince weighed it a little in his heart, and suddenly smiled meaningfully: "Wenqinghou Mansion, oh, it turned out to be the lady of the wild boy who didn't know where to pick it up, no wonder there is also a wildness on his body, I like it!" ”
Qi Yunshu gritted his silver teeth secretly, hey, this shameless bullshit prince, his sluggishness and hesitation just now have fully demonstrated that he is afraid in his heart, but he still has to make a lot of nonsense, what a nasty ghost.
"Although the courtier's husband is only a small five-rank official, he is also the court official of the Great Liang Dynasty, and he also asks the four princes to speak with respect, so as not to accidentally flash his tongue when the cold wind is cold!"
"What a clever mouth, the master has learned, by the way, I accidentally hit you just now, I'm very sorry, and the master will send you something to crush you in a while!" The fourth prince left his words, hooked the corners of his mouth and stared at Qi Yunshu fixedly.
"Thank you, but no, I just hope that the coachman of the Fourth Highness will keep his eyes open next time to see the road, so as not to accidentally fall into the ditch in a groat. On the contrary, it damaged the noble body of the Fourth Highness! Qi Yunshu said as she fanned the wind with a silk handkerchief, looking very afraid of heat.
But in fact, it was already the end of October at this time, and the cold winter in the capital had already come.
I saw the wind blow into the eyes of the driving horse, and in its nose, it snorted inconspicuously.
The carriage turned to the east with the sneer of the four princes, Qi Yunshu stood in place and rubbed the silk handkerchief vigorously, then took out another one and wrapped it, handed it to the magpie with great disgust, and ordered in a low voice: "Put it away and go back to the house to burn!" ”
The magpie looked at the good handkerchief and didn't understand, Zhao Yu's sharp eyes saw the trace of white powder exposed outside the wrapped handkerchief, he pushed the magpie and asked her not to ask, according to the master's meaning!
