Chapter 263: What he was afraid of was revealing his identity
Fu Rong raised his head: "This person has ill intentions, and it is difficult to guarantee that he is not deliberately provoking disputes among courtiers by taking advantage of the affairs of the Tang and Chen families." ”
"Yes, it's possible. However, there was no need for him to assassinate Tang Jian. Yang Su said, "The money was given to Tang Jian, and Xue Niang followed Tang Jian before this windfall, which shows that Xue Niang had no problem in the first place."
Tang Jian had money, and later this third person also appeared, and Tang Jian couldn't afford to give it to Xue Niang, which shows that this person's financial resources are not weak.
The remnants of fallen peanuts found in her house show that she had dealings with this third person before going to Chen's house, so why didn't this rich and affectionate person keep her? And Xue Niang didn't leak a word? ”
"Naturally, it shows that 'sentient beings' are fake, and purposeful is true." Ling Yuan said, "This person approached Xue Niang with a purpose, and Xue Niang couldn't show his face, so after being taken back to Chen's house by Chen Xiong, this person didn't come forward to protect her."
He privately came up with the idea of letting Xue Niang want to re-enter the Tang family through the fetus in her womb, but he didn't expect things to go well, but the Tang and Chen families fought like a tug-of-war.
"This person was afraid that Xue Niang would reveal the secret, so he borrowed Chen Xiong's knife to kill her, and took the opportunity to intensify the conflict between the Chen and Tang families."
Fu Rong nodded with a deep groan.
Yang Su continued: "Since it is surmised that this person is here for Tang Jian, then in the case that Tang Jian has no bad deeds, if he is not for this silver, what will he be for?"
"But a thousand taels of silver should not be a big deal for a person who can buy makeup and satin to give away, the important thing is that there are words engraved on this batch of silver."
"That's right." Ling Yuan said, "The official silver has a provenance, it doesn't hurt to put it in the cave, once it is in the hands of others, especially in the hands of Tang Jian, who is a child of the official family, what kind of disaster can be caused, who can predict it?"
"This person is not looking for silver, he should still be afraid that the silver will show up and reveal his identity."
Fu Rong took a breath and stood up: "I wonder if the prince can allow me to ask Tang Jian a few words?" ”
Yang Su motioned to Guan Su: "Lead the way for the prince." ”
Ling Yuan saw him out, and then said to Yang Su: "The village where the bell recuperated from his injuries is the Liuertun where Tang Jian went!" ”
"I know." Yang Su's eyes deepened.
Four years ago, Changying was injured and woke up in Liuertun, and Tongzhou is located in the southeast of Beijing, so naturally it will not be the northern suburbs.
So in other words, the Liuertun that Tang Jian went to is the Liuertun where the tenant family of Changying "recuperated" is located.
Tang Jian was emotional, he really didn't know where to kill him, and I don't think he was lying. And that batch of silver happened to be the official silver four years ago, so could this person be related to those people back then? Ling Yuan looked at Yang Su.
"Yes or no, you have to go and see it for the real thing." Yang Su said here and picked up the cloak: "Without further ado, let's take Tang Jian out of the city to have a look!" ”
He turned back to Xie Peng and said, "The person on duty takes care of it carefully, at this moment, there are more people who look at our jokes." ”
If Tang Jian really dies in the Five Cities Yamen tonight, even if the Tang family can't blame Yang Su, at least they will be implicated, which will be in the arms of the East Palace.
Fu Rong was also asking Tang Jian here: "The Tang family has never provoked bandits, and it must be unusual for my cousin to suffer a catastrophe."
"It's all fatal, do you have to tell the truth, you really didn't get anything else but that money?"
Tang Jian was hesitating, and Yang Su and the others arrived.
I heard that they were going to the outskirts of the city to have a look, and Fu Rongzi also went with him.
In an instant, several horsemen galloped out of the city gate and went straight to the southern suburbs.
Changying and Feng Shaoyin were halfway through the same road, and Shaoyin wanted to go to Yue's house, so they parted ways.
Zi Yan complained that she went out without anyone with her, and came back so late, she smiled, and explained that she went to eat with Ling Yuan's Fu family and them later.
After speaking, he looked at Zhou Liang and their courtyard, and saw that there was no light yet, so he knew that he was about to go to the Yamen, and he didn't know what happened to the Tang family?
"The slave already knows." Just thinking about it, Zi Yi smiled and said, "The prince talked back to the guards in the evening." ”
He said: "Xiuxiu also came to talk, saying that the Rong family has not been peaceful in the past few days, and she will come over again after taking a look." ”
Changying guessed that Yu and Rong Biru were fighting again, and knew that Xiuxiu was fine, so she didn't care about it for the time being.
……
Yang Su and the three of them took Tang Jian and his entourage, and they rushed to Liuertun after only half an hour.
It was late at night, and everything was quiet, but the sound of horses' hooves raised the barking of dogs all the way.
Fortunately, there was a cold moon in the sky, Tang Jian led the way to the broken temple on the mountain, Yang Su walked and looked, Changying was in this village when he was in distress, this place is close to the post road, and the terrain is only ten miles away from the place where the two of them fell off the cliff.
He said to Tong Qi: "You go down the mountain to find the specific location of the tenant surnamed Sun." ”
After Changying confessed to him about his injury, he sent people to look for the tenants, but it was not Tong Qi who came in person.
Ling Yuan next to him heard it, stood on the hillside and looked around, pointing to a dark village under the moonlight in the southwest: "That's it." ”
Tong Qi immediately went down.
The group entered the temple, and Tang Jian took them straight inside.
The temple has been dilapidated, Daning in the early years with the prosperity of shipping, Buddhism prevailed, many Taoist temples have collapsed and abandoned, except for the place where Yang Su and Changying stayed in that year, this place seems to be the same, all eyes are ruins and dust.
Tang Jian led everyone to the backyard, which was overgrown with weeds, broken bricks everywhere, and there was a sound of fluttering in the grass, as well as the cries of small beasts after being frightened.
Tang Jian stopped under the wall of the back yard, pointed to a hole in the grass and said, "This is it." ”
After saying that, he squatted down, picked up the grass with his bare hands, and the guards lit the fire, and a hole two feet square was revealed.
Tang Jian looked left and right, and suddenly ran to a pile of rotten wood on the east side, searched for a while, and brought a piece of clothing over: "This is the clothes that blocked the entrance to the cave at the beginning!" I left it here, and it's still there! ”
Yang Su took it.
The clothes turned out to be of satin texture, half of which was already worn, and it should have been in the open air, which had been eroded by wind and rain, and was torn at will. The other half is almost still in its original appearance, with wrinkles and traces of old and new intertwined.
Yang Su rummaged and looked twice, and finally looked at the cuffs and collar, only to see that it was smooth and flat, and there were no traces of grinding.
The hole is not deep, and there are traces of digging soil, which is supposed to be done when things were temporarily stored. Removing a few remnants of dirt, there were two rusty swords, and a few broken pieces of rag.
"These fragments are the furoshiki of the original silver, the silver is heavy, and I tore it up when I pulled it, leaving some behind."
Tang Jian and the others all squatted down.
Yang Su picked up the pieces of cloth and looked at them twice, and then handed them over to Guan Su, and then looked at the two swords again.
