I followed the traces, but saw that Zhang San was already wandering at the back door of the Song Mansion. It seems that he is looking for Lord Song, and after knowing that Lord Song is not in the house today, he went to the Liuhe Gambling House again. Wei Guang followed them to investigate the case, and although he rarely opened his mouth to analyze, he also knew why Xu Chu asked him to track down.

"I didn't use light work, I just trotted from here to the Song Mansion to the Liuhe Casino, and then returned, and it took less than a quarter of an hour. According to the steps of ordinary people, this is probably the case. ”

Xu Chu nodded, thinking in his heart.

They went to the Liuhe Gambling House again, and lost two handfuls in this three-way game, and only when he had lost all the money he had won from the Tiancheng Gambling House did he curse and look aside. Obviously, whether it is the performance of everyone in Tiancheng Gambling House or his gambling skills now, he is not very good.

Thinking of the adults mentioned by the manager of Tiancheng Gambling House before, she suddenly had a conjecture.

"It seems that Xiao Chu is about to close the case?" Xiao Qinglang looked at Xu Chu who had her eyebrows stretched, knowing that she was afraid that she had already connected the clues in the case.

Xu Chu nodded, exhaled deeply, and said, "There are still one or two details, and the case can be closed." Now only the people sent by Gongzi to Zhang Xiao's and Aunt Yang's hometown have returned to the news they have discovered. ”

As long as the news came back was as good as she had guessed, the case could be closed.

Xiao Qinglang stared at her, thought for a while, and then said, "Xiao Chu, this case involves the overall situation of Jinzhou City......"

He didn't want her to back down, but the stakes were very important at this time, and with this short case, it was impossible to shake Song Derong's status. It is even more impossible to uncover the darkness of Jinzhou City.

Just like the copper mine case at that time, even if he arrested many small minions, he even arrested the steward who guarded the copper mine, and found Jinyinfang and many merchants along the way. But in fact, it still hasn't shaken the foundation of the people behind the scenes.

Xu Chu sighed slowly, lowered his eyes, and only looked up at him for a while and said with a firm gaze: "But Gongzi will definitely let those people subdue to the law, right?" ”

Her gaze was fixed, and she didn't even blink an eye. At this time, her face was serious, and she looked at him stubbornly and trustingly. She is sure that this person will never let the sinners go unpunished, let alone let Zhao Zhangtian be lost.

No matter how planned he was, and how he planned to return the soldiers of Jinzhou City to the court without blood, she believed him. I believe that there will be no more unjust cases in the world's prisons, and the people will no longer be cornered.

Along the way, from the Li Dai Taozhuang golden cicada shelling case, to the crazy copper mine case, to the case of Mrs. Zhang's family in Jinyinfang, and the case of Lotus Villa, she deeply realized the extreme viciousness of those people. It seems that as long as those who are useful to them can indulge in murder and robbery.

Just like Jin Manshan killed a family of three and colluded with the Red Makeup House to wantonly play with the men and women of the good family, she didn't believe that no yamen and officials in Jinzhou City knew. Even if you don't know what's inside, you're bound to hear some wind.

But in fact, for more than ten years, Jin Manshan is still pampered. But when the couple begged Song Derong and Tang Rucai at that time, they could send someone to investigate, and there might not be a tragedy later.

However, even if she knew, there was nothing she could do. Even now, there is no way for her to move directly to the fake Song Derong.

Xiao Qinglang saw her like this, and said word by word: "Naturally, I promise." ”

A thousand words, but it also made Xu Chu look away, and she said softly: "There are things to be done and things to be done." The affairs of Jinzhou City are complex and implicated, and in order to reveal the evil, it is not impossible to plan and act. ”

Outside, rain and snow were falling, and even spilled into the carriage through the corners of the flying clothes. Such a cold air dispersed the solemn and solemn atmosphere in the car.

Xiao Qinglang stared at her rippling eyes, raised his hand to hold her somewhat cold hand, and said in a low voice: "The layout has been made in the capital, but if the layout is hasty, I am afraid that it will backfire, and those people and dogs in Jinzhou City will jump over the wall and cause the people to suffer." Therefore, it is necessary to get the saint to mobilize soldiers and horses loyal to the imperial court from several city passes close to Jinzhou City, on the grounds that the border passes are in turmoil and it is necessary to urgently mobilize garrisons to defend the border passes. That's when we were ready to act. ”

At this time, all they could do was to solve the case, and then use the gap to break the officials in Jinzhou City one by one. Before they found out the places in Jinzhou City where they secretly collected money like Lotus Villa, or secretly made bows and crossbows and other weapons, they could only try to appease the people in Jinzhou City.

In fact, Xiao Qinglang knew in his heart that what he just said was not something that should be said easily. Even, even Wei Guang never got the slightest hint of tone.

He had always known that in his position, he must not trust others easily. Even if that person has been friends with him since childhood, he needs to be cautious.

But in the face of Xu Chu, he suddenly wanted to indulge.

In fact, when he finished speaking, he did have some joy in his heart. It's as if you can finally have someone to share the secrets that you have in your heart. This feeling is indescribably strange and comfortable.

The two reached a consensus on the case, and then Xu Chu took the lead in speaking: "I don't know if the prince can find a way to find the Yamen's file and court trial records on the murder of Song Deqing's wife and daughter, if you can meet the three murderers, it would be the best." ”

"I'll let people do the arrangement." After Xiao Qinglang finished speaking, he took out a stack of documents from under the carriage table, took out the top three books and handed them to Xu Chu, and said, "When I came to Jinzhou City, I only showed you Song Deqing's file. The original intention was not to let the murder of his relatives in his family interfere with your investigation of the things that have plagued Song Derong for a long time. Unexpectedly, whether it was Song Deqing or Song Derong, so that the three generations of the Song family, all the disasters suffered by each other were intertwined with each other. ”

Xu Chu took the file with a slight chill and flipped through it quietly. She looked so closely that only the sound of the two of them breathing was left in the carriage.

At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped. Before Xiao Qinglang could ask, he saw that the carriage's clothes had been lifted by others, and then a handsome young man climbed into the carriage without any image.

Xu Chu was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the young man come to her side, and stretched out his hand to wrap his arm around her.

"Oh, Sister Chu, how can you say that it will change this day, and I will freeze to death." A delicate voice with some complaints and coquettishness sounded.

Only then did she see the faces of the people who came. But I don't want to, it's Xiao Mingzhu who was sent to Wenyan Building by Xiao Qinglang.

Xu Chu blinked, a little confused. How can it be so decent, Mingzhu is also dressed as a man?

Xiao Mingzhu saw that Xu Chu was a little surprised, and immediately stretched out his arms triumphantly, shook the scholar's robe and asked, "How is it, are you still handsome?" ”

"It's really handsome, enough to charm thousands of girls." Xu Chu saw her frowning and funny, and couldn't help but shake his head and said helplessly, "It's just Mingzhu, if you can remove the rouge and lip grease on your face next time, I think you will be more like a young man." ”

So Xiao Mingzhu, who was smug, instantly stiffened his movements. She laughed twice, touched her face, and said, "Forget and forget." After speaking, she reached out and pinched Xu Chu's face that was still white without powder, and pouted, "God is really unfair, not only gave Sister Chu an incomparably smart head, but also gave Sister Chu a delicate and fair face, and even her body is much better than mine." ”

She remembered it clearly, when she hugged Sister Chu to sleep at night, the small waist was slender and made people jealous.

After saying a few words, the chill on Xiao Mingzhu's body gradually dissipated. She said: "Zhang Qiu is withdrawn, and he can't talk to the students of the academy, and he is quite arrogant, so there are almost no people who are good friends with him." Liu Xiche, the nerd of the academy, can still say a few words to him. ”

"And how is his learning, and how is his conduct?"

"The learning is good, and I have been praised by my husband, and because my family is poor, I am treated very leniently by my husband. As for the conduct, I don't know if those students deliberately slandered him, anyway, I said that an old woman with Liu Jiao's charm and charm has looked for him a few times, anyway, those people said very frivolously Meng Lang, and I will dirty your ears when I say those words. ”

Later, when he was ostracized by his students, he was often ridiculed for this. said that he had a father who was a gentleman on the beam, and a mother who was pregnant when he was a daughter, but in the end there was a rich woman in her thirties begging to serve him. ”

"Zhang San has been Liang Shangjun?" This point was not mentioned in the dossier, so it is no wonder that Xu Chu was surprised. Even Xiao Qinglang frowned slightly, looking a little surprised.

Xiao Mingzhu nodded, "Yes, it seems that he was still caught by Song Derong, but it seems to say that Aunt Yang has some cousin relationship with him, so Song Derong did not send him to the yamen." After that, he stayed in the Song Mansion for several days, and when he left the Song Mansion again, he had the current mansion. ”

"Oh yes, there is a drunken person who heard those students talk about the Song family, and came over mysteriously and said that Zhang San is not Aunt Yang's cousin at all. And the reason why Song Derong let him go was because he gave Song Derong a green hat and got along with Aunt Liu. Xiao Mingzhu waved his hand and said with a wrinkled face, "The relationship between the Song family is too chaotic. ”

"No wonder he's so skilled at climbing over walls."

Xu Chu thought secretly for a moment, and then glanced at Xiao Qinglang. Both of them knew that Zhang San couldn't have fun with a woman at all, so it was absolutely impossible for him to fornicate with Aunt Liu.

If there is such news, it must be to hide something. And the secret that was hidden would also be used by Zhang San to threaten or coerce Song Derong and Aunt Yang.
