Chapter 162: The Great Liang Conspiracy
Zhao Ming clamped his chin and put something in his mouth, his voice was already a little flustered: "This is the antidote, you won't die, I didn't want you to die, I just wanted to teach you a lesson, don't be afraid, I won't touch you, I'll take you out now." ”
Ji Qingyi, who was lying on it, hurriedly covered the gap, and then crept out, Ji Qingyi thought that this should be the place where Chu Xiaoyao heard the sound last night, yes, it was underground, but not under the warehouse.
Ji Qingyi thought that he couldn't let the little second master come out and happened to run into Xiao Jin and them, so he hurriedly and cautiously walked to the direction of the warehouse. Ji Qingyi looked up and saw Xiao Jin walking out of the warehouse, Xiao Jin opened his mouth, and just wanted to speak, Ji Qingyi first hurriedly put his index finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture, and then walked to Xiao Jin's side, stretched out his hand and pushed Xiao Jin into the warehouse, and closed the door firmly after entering.
Xiao Jin was confused, looked at Ji Qingyi who was lying in the crack of the door and said, "What are you doing?" ”
Ji Qingyi turned her head nervously and said, "Shhhh ”
Xiao Jin helplessly followed over and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”
Ji Qingyi whispered in an angry voice: "Guess what I saw?" ”
"Huh? What the? Xiao Jin lowered his eyes and stared at the top of Ji Qingyi's head.
Ji Qingyi's two eyes stared at the outside in a daze: "I saw the county master and the little second master, do you listen to the news of the thief?" ”
As he was talking, Ji Qingyi felt a figure swaying everywhere he looked, and Ji Qingyi hurriedly said, "I'll tell you later, don't talk yet." ”
As soon as the words fell, Ji Qingyi saw a heavy figure projected in front of him, because the moonlight happened to shine on the road in front of the warehouse door, so when Zhao Ming and Wen Chu walked over, they happened to be seen by Ji Qingyi.
A man in a black robe holds another ...... in his arms Kindness...... The man who was only wearing obscene clothes walked over, and Wen Chu, who was held in Zhao Ming's arms, looked like he had fainted, and his body was slightly thin. After the two walked over, Xiao Jin's expression was slightly complicated: "Broken sleeves? ”
Ji Qingyi nodded.
Xiao Jin was slightly startled for a second and then asked, "Then that is the county master?" ”
Ji Qingyi touched his nose and said, "The one who was held." ”
“……”
Xiao Jin twitched the corners of his mouth expressionlessly and said, "We didn't find the mechanism and the Dark Pavilion, where did they come from?" ”
Ji Qingyi laughed twice and said, "Unfortunately, the basement is in the passage next to the warehouse, and I eavesdropped on the two of them. ”
Xiao Jin thought of the disheveled two people just now in his mind, and said with a dark face: "You dare to do anything." ”
Ji Qingyi shrunk her neck, although it was quite imaginative at the beginning, but she was very innocent, and she also heard a big secret.
Ji Qingyi showed a very unbeaten smile, raised his eyebrows and said, "What about Chu Xiaoyao?" I have a big clue for you. ”
As soon as the words fell, a faint voice came from his ears: "Next to you......"
"Mom!" Ji Qingyi was startled, and when she looked at it, she saw Chu Xiaoyao really standing on the edge of the grain pile not far from her. Blame her for being blind.
Ji Qingyi calmed down and said, "Let's go back to the inn first, I heard an important clue." ”
As he spoke, he bent down to the crack in the door and looked at it for a while, then turned around and said, "Let's go." ”
Xiao Jin nodded, and then took the lead in carrying Ji Qingyi and walked out.
Back at the inn, Hongchen and Xiao Ling hadn't rested yet, and when they saw them coming back, they asked, "Have you found the county master?" ”
Ji Qingyi cautiously looked around and said, "Let's go in first, it's not convenient to say here." ”
Saying that, a few people walked in, Ji Qingyi took a sip of water, stood next to the table and said, "I think this county master is particularly problematic." ”
Xiao Ling said as soon as he heard this: "You mean that the county master and Zhao Wuye colluded? ”
Ji Qingyi shook his head: "When I say there is a problem, I don't mean that there is a problem with this, but that he may have a problem from the beginning." ”
Chu Xiaoyao said impatiently: "What do you want to say?" ”
Ji Qingyi cleared his throat and said, "This county master is named Wen Chu......"
"Wen Chu?" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xiao Ling. Xiao Ling frowned and said, "I inquired today, and they said that the county magistrate here is surnamed Yang." How can it be called Wen Chu. ”
Ji Qingyi was also stunned and said: "But when I eavesdropped on the two of them just now, Zhao Ming called him Wen Chu. ”
Xiao Jin said suddenly: "Could it be that you recognized the wrong person?" That person may not be the county magistrate. ”
Ji Qingyi shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, Zhao Ming mentioned it in his words, but if you say so, it proves that this county master has a big problem." The current Wen Chu once knew Zhao Ming in Zhongnan Mountain, that is, the second master of Zhao Wuye's son. The two are very likely to be brothers, and this Zhao Ming loves Wen Chu very much, almost sickly. ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Ling's face showed a strange look, and he thought to himself that such a powerful news came out, no matter how he said it, some people would be surprised, but the reaction of everyone present was too bland.
Ji Qingyi wondered: "Why didn't you react?" ”
Hongchen's face turned pale, and he opened his mouth and said, "They may also be ...... I can't help myself......"
As soon as the words came out, Xiao Ling's face became even more ugly, and he said coldly: "Why are you so gossipy, this is someone else's private matter, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with solving the case." ”
As soon as Ji Qingyi wanted to speak, Chu Xiaoyao laughed and said, "It's so interesting." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Ling stood up: "What are you laughing at!" ”
Chu Xiaoyao glanced at Hongchen, then spared Xiao Ling and walked to sit down next to him, tilted his head and said, "I didn't laugh at anything." ”
For some reason, Hongchen suddenly became nervous, and his lips trembled and said, "Ji Qingyi, you said that the county master has a problem, don't you mean this?" ”
Xiao Ling could have had trouble with anyone, Ji Qingyi didn't think much about it, and when he heard Hongchen speak, he replied: "It's definitely not this, broken sleeves are not a rare thing, what I want to say is this Wen Chu, he turned out to be a person from Daliang." ”
After speaking, Ji Qingyi scratched his head and said, "Do you know where the girder is?" ”
Xiao Jin looked stunned and said, "The people of the Great Liang? ”
Ji Qingyi nodded. Chu Xiaoyao continued: "I remember that since Emperor Wei Xuan, officials have stopped appointing other people. ”
Xiao Ling thought about it and wondered: "And even if you let non-nationals stay in Wei State, they can only be some debaters." ”
Ji Qingyi snapped his fingers and said, "So, that's why I said that there is a problem with this county master." And in his conversation with Zhao Ming, I learned that the county magistrate had just taken office. ”
Chu Xiaoyao looked at Erlang's leg and said, "Maybe the original county master was killed, and then this Wen Chu will replace him." ”
Yeli said, "But that Wen Chu looks weak. ”
Ji Qingyi waved his hand and said, "How weak can the disciples who came out of Zhongnan Mountain be?" Moreover, he doesn't necessarily do it himself, Zhao Ming said that he has many followers. That's right......"
Ji Qingyi paused and said seriously: "Zhao Ming said that Wen Chu often met with those entourages some time ago, but these entourages of his were killed one after another, that is, the corpse we saw outside the gate of Zhao Mansion this morning, and it was also one of Wen Chu's entourage. ”
Xiao Ling said: "Did Zhao Ming kill them?" ”
"It's not." Ji Qingyi retorted: "Zhao Ming said that he didn't move those entourage, but I don't know why they all died. I think this morning's corpse might be a warning to Wen Chu. ”
"Warning?" Xiao Ling was a little impatient, and said, "What are you talking about?" Why can't I understand it? ”
"Because Wen Chu was very frightened after hearing that his entourage was dead, he kept saying that he was going to die and begged Zhao Ming to let him go."
Xiao Jin was stunned and frowned: "He is being threatened." ”
Ji Qingyi nodded: "Yes, and it is life-threatening." ”
Hongchen pursed his lips and said, "Then are we going to save him?" ”
Chu Xiaoyao glanced at him: "If Zhao Ming can protect him, there is no need for us to save him." ”
"Then ......" Hongchen said, "Then what if he can't protect it?" Think of the Assassins we met when we first arrived. ”
As soon as Hongchen's words fell, everyone was stunned, and he continued: "I have always felt that those people are not like assassins that can be cultivated by local overlords, and their skills are professionally trained people at first glance, they didn't let us enter Fuxi, it must be to prevent us from investigating the case of the killing of the envoys of Beiliang, but why did they not take action after entering Fuxi?" ”
Several people were silent for a moment, and Ji Qingyi said in vain: "It's not that they don't have no action. ”
She looked at Xiao Jin and said, "They entrusted me and Xiao Jin to the yamen last night. ”
Xiao Ling said in surprise: "Didn't Zhao Wuye's people entrust you to the Yamen?" ”
Ji Qingyi shook his head and said: "At first, I thought it was Zhao Wuye's people, but after Hongchen's analysis just now, I think it is very likely that the group of people who assassinated us were responsible, and they did this to push the suspicion to Zhao Wuye." Do you think if it was Zhao Wuye's people, why did they enter our room and not take away their belongings? Why drag us to the yamen and the corpse for the night? This approach is clearly preventing us from investigating the case, and it leads us to Zhao Wuye. ”
Ji Qingyi paused, and seeing that several people looked solemn, Ji Qingyi took a breath and said, "Do you think that everything may be that Wen Chu pushed the suspicions to Zhao Wuye's mansion?" Wen Chu was the county prince in Fuxi before the tribute of the Northern Liang State, during which he was deliberately imprisoned by Zhao Ming in the Zhao Mansion, he was a member of the Great Liang State, and killed the Northern Liang envoys on the territory of the Wei State to blame the Wei State, so that the two countries fought each other, who do you say will take advantage of the fisherman? ”
Ji Qingyi didn't wait for them to answer, hooked his lips and said, "Da Liang Guo." ”
