Chapter 143: Stand-in
Through Li Mingli's matter, Jiang Xiangmo was shocked by the emperor's deep and deep thoughts.
Years of reusing a courtier who knew he had a different heart fully showed that the monarch had a strong and confident enough control.
Thinking that he accidentally learned about the secret affairs of the emperor when he was the crown prince, Jiang Xiangmo couldn't help but straighten his body with solemn eyebrows, and suddenly he was stunned in his heart, and wrote Li Qiuyan's name next to Li Mingli, and in the blank space next to Li Qiuyan, he circled it heavily, and silently added a name in his heart: Mingshan.
Others don't know this Ming Shan, but Jiang Xiangmo learned from Old Man Mu two days ago that Ming Shan was the name of the queen when she was not out of the cabinet.
After that circle, Jiang Xiangmo drew a regular box, which also represented a name that could not be written explicitly.
This is a prince who failed in the seizure of the heir, the prince of the royal family has passed away and was posthumously named the prince of Yi, only a few people know that this prince is actually incognito and avoided the Western Regions.
At this point, Jiang Xiangmo suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment, and so on, the poison of the Western Regions and the strange murder and invisible ice spirit needles that frequently appeared...... All the doubts can be explained, the only thing that he can't understand is why Li Qiuyan's woman has to put Su Han to death, Old Man Mu is still safe and sound, and Su Han has no reason to be involved.
Thinking of Su Han, Jiang Xiangmo was suffocated for a moment, Gusu's errand was basically over, and he would return to Beijing soon, but Jiang Xiangmo suddenly found that his heart was inexplicably empty, depressed and dull, and difficult to vent.
"My lord!" someone slammed the door outside the door, dragging Jiang Xiangmo back from his dull mood.
He propped up his chair back, lay down and closed his eyes, and said tiredly, "Come in." ”
A subordinate hurriedly walked in and said urgently: "My lord, the person who used the Ice Spirit Needle appeared, and killed one person in front of Wansheng Gambling House, and the deceased seems to be Su Niangzi's brother......"
"What?" Jiang Xiangmo opened his eyes and stood up from the chair suddenly, his movements were too big, and his subordinates trembled back.
Her eldest brother came to Gusu, when did he not know?
Jiang Xiangmo suddenly realized that except for Old Man Mu, he had never dealt with the woman's family, and even knew very little, only vaguely hearing that his grandmother and Zhou Yanning had disliked her eldest brother as a gambler.
In fact, if you want to talk about the reason, it is very simple, in a word, ghosts are afraid of the wicked.
Jiang Xiangmo had a dignified face that did not smile, and it happened that Su Yaoguang had seen him kill people on the street when he was on an errand, no matter how muddy Su Yaoguang was, he was afraid of death, how dare he come to Jiang Xiangmo.
Besides, at that time, Su Yaoguang knew that the original owner couldn't please Jiang Xiangmo, and he didn't dare to get close to it, and it was too late to hide like a mouse and a cat, for fear that Jiang Xiangmo would grab him and let him take the original owner home.
Therefore, Su Yaoguang's lack of silver is all the same as the original owner, he has never dared to be shy in front of Jiang Xiangmo, and he has borrowed Jiang Xiangmo's name to owe a large amount of gambling debts in the gambling house, and later the old lady personally asked the housekeeper to greet the major gambling houses, and everyone knew that he was not even a fart in the eyes of Jiang Fu, and he would never give him face and owe silver.
Love the house and Wu, and vice versa, Jiang Xiangmo hated Su Yaoguang, who was not a gambler, and never cared about Su Yaoguang.
Hearing Su Yaoguang's accident, Jiang Xiangmo's heart tightened.
He didn't know what the relationship between the two brothers and sisters was, and instinctively thought that Su Yaoguang was Su Han's relative, and if the eldest brother died, she must be shocked and scared, so he directly ordered a few people with good skills to hunt down the murderer, and sent someone to deliver news to Bai Zhifu to block the city gate, and he himself planned to go to Su Han's side to have a look.
He was still very puzzled, the people who were killed by the Ice Spirit Needle were all related to Su Han without exception, this is not a coincidence, someone targeted Su Han, is it still related to Li Qiuyan?
Jiang Xiangmo knew that under Wu Qifan's concealment, Li Qiuyan, the woman, was not dead, he didn't move, Li Qiuyan was just waiting for the person behind her to appear and determine something.
Before he could move his feet, a secret guard suddenly appeared, "Master, the target has appeared, Li Qiuyan has already left the city and headed east, and our people are following." "
Jiang Xiangmo's face became solemn, "Can you see that it was Li Qiuyan who went to the joint in person?"
The dark guard nodded firmly.
The person behind the curtain finally moved, this is a big fish, he has been waiting for a long time and finally emerged today, as long as the identity of this person is determined in person, his secret mission is successfully completed and he can return to Beijing to hand over the decree.
But on Su Han's side, Jiang Xiangmo hesitated slightly, thinking that he had done careful protection for Su Han, and there was no need to worry about safety, and there was Old Man Mu here, so he put his mind at ease, and it was not too late to come back and take a look.
But when the others had already gone out of the city gate, Jiang Xiangmo suddenly felt a little uneasy, he turned around and looked, sighed helplessly, and finally ordered the previous secret guard: "You go back, be sure to ask him to protect the people in that courtyard, and you can stay too." "
The dark guard was stunned, and couldn't help but say: "Master, there is something unusual in the east of the city, the other party has a lot of manpower, and his subordinates are worried...... "
Jiang Xiangmo only glanced at the secret guard coldly, and the dark guard immediately fell silent in his heart and obeyed the order and turned back, but inside he was full of slander, the courtyard with a big palm, several top master guards, his master made too much fuss about the women in the courtyard, and even if the other party wanted to do it, it should be dark and windy, which one would rob the house during the day?
It is said that Jiang Xiangmo rushed all the way to the east, and Bai Mingzhan also got the news, and secretly led people to the east of the city.
It should be mentioned that since Su Han and Bai Mingzhan broke off their relationship, Yan Mu stopped Su Han's recent events, and did not report to Bai Mingzhan in 1510, and Bai Mingzhan seemed to have left Su Han behind all day long, so Bai Mingzhan didn't know about Su Han's recent affairs, including Su Yaoguang's death.
After making sure that Bai Mingzhan had taken people out of the mansion, Ji Mingzhu ordered people to prepare a carriage to go to Jiang Xiangmo's temporary mansion in Gusu with a pale face, on the grounds that he was going to visit Zhou Yanning, who was frightened in Bao'en Temple.
Yu Shu stayed by Ji Mingzhu's side, her face was tense and panicked, she couldn't help but persuade her several times, but Ji Mingzhu glared back fiercely and annoyingly.
Before getting into the carriage, Yu Shu glanced angrily at the other maid beside Ji Mingzhu, held Ji Mingzhu's hand and pleaded in a low voice: "Miss Qiu has changed her mind." "
If you tell this to the third young master Bai, it may not be that there is no solution, Old Man Mu is said to be able to live and die human flesh and bones, and he will definitely be able to solve the poison on the young lady's body, why should he be coerced by Li Qiuyan, a vicious woman, once he obeys her orders, he will not be able to make decisions in everything in the future.
Yu Shu really can't imagine what will happen to Miss after the matter is revealed.
Ji Mingzhu couldn't listen to Yu Shu's words, she shook off Yu Shu's hand irritably, and said angrily: "What do you mean, do you want your young lady to die?"
The maidservant girl next to her sneered coldly at Yu Shu, and took the lead in picking up the curtain and getting into the carriage, completely ignoring the identity of Ji Mingzhu's master.
This maid is Li Qiuyan who has done some disguise.
And the "Li Qiuyan" chased out by Jiang Xiangmo and others is just her stand-in, and the woman who was sunk by the Wu family in front of everyone is also her other stand-in.
Seeing that Yu Shu was mournful, with a frustrated expression, Ji Mingzhu slapped Yu Shu fiercely, "Be clever for a while, if it ruins my business, I'll kill you first!"
Looking at the manic and vulgar Miss, Yu Shu said sadly in her heart, Miss was all harmed by Li Qiuyan, she was obviously close to Miss, but while treating Miss's scars, she gave Miss a drug that made people mad and lose her mind, and now she threatened Miss with poison for her use......
This woman is so vicious and terrifying!
Yu Shu looked at Li Qiuyan, who was behind the curtain of the car and showed undisguised contempt for her master and servant, and secretly clenched her palms with a pale face.
"What person, go away!" When Ji Mingzhu's car stopped at the gate next door to Su Han's house, the door scolded him impatiently.
The people around the second master specially instructed him not to accept anyone who came to visit him except for Old Man Mu, and to talk about it in the yamen.
The one who drove the car was the little guy Ji Mingzhu brought from his mother's house, the prime minister's disciple Qipin official, he used to be the right-hand man of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Officials, and now he is a subordinate of the Tudi Emperor Bai Zhifu family in the Gusu realm, and the strong dragon can't suppress the head snake, he really didn't take the gatedog of the Qincha family's family who got out after finishing the errand.
Besides, this man, who has always been arrogant, jumped into the carriage and pointed to the emblem of the mansion and scolded at the door: "Open your dog's eyes, this is the car of the Bai Governor's house, this is the pearl of our minister's Shangshuji, the third young grandmother of the Bai Mansion, I came to visit your cousin today, and I didn't hurry up to open the door to welcome the guests!"
As soon as the door heard the other party's origin, he couldn't help but secretly complain, the master ordered to stop the male guests who came to visit, the female relatives of the Bai prefect's family came to visit the cousin, did they let them in?
But at this moment, Master Jiang came back.
Since the old man Mu personally went out, the first day of his son Jiang Xiangji's condition improved, the old man began to drive birds and dogs in Gusu City in the name of Uncle Qincha and chant poems and music.
Seeing the battle at the gate of the mansion, as soon as he heard the identity of the other party, Master Jiang immediately woke up half of his excitement, kicked on the door and asked the door to open the door to welcome the guests, and personally nodded to Zhou Yanning through the curtain of the car and made a detailed self-introduction.
