Volume 1 Chapter 253 Relationship Exposed
At the same time, in the wing room where Yuefu Restaurant was still worry-free, a man in black knelt on the ground to report the situation of the Xu family.
If Xu Yunzhao and Gao Yu were here, they would be able to recognize who he was at a glance, this person was the man in black who broke into Xu Yunjin's study, and Xu Yunjin couldn't imagine that this person was sent by Shang Wuwu if he wanted to break his head.
"Interesting, Lord Wenle is afraid that he has suffered heavy losses this time, have you found out who did it?"
"I probably have a clue, as soon as I heard that something happened to the Xu family, my subordinates would take the risk to investigate, but I didn't expect to meet the little son of the Xu family and his entourage.
That little boy's kung fu, his subordinates feel that the path is a bit similar to a person."
This man in black was a secret guard who stayed by Shang Wuwu's side before, and he was sent to Si Geng after Daqi recovered Yuzhong County.
"Who?"
"Yuan Shizi, his subordinates have carefully observed, he has eight images with Yuan Shizi, if his subordinates are not mistaken, he and Yuan Shizi are afraid that they are from the same school."
When Shang Wuwu heard this, he suddenly opened his mouth, and he said why the Xu family sent so many materials to the border pass, he thought it was just support for the war, but he didn't think that there was such a relationship in it.
"Childe, as soon as he said this, his subordinates also felt that one of the old men who was at the dock yesterday was a little familiar, as if it was the masked man who helped the Great Qi army capture several cities, and the news he heard before said that that person was the master of Yuan Shizi."
One of Shang Wuwu's subordinates who was with him yesterday suddenly remembered Old Man Zhuang, and he felt that person was a little familiar yesterday.
Now that I think about it, if I cover the lower half of his face, those seemingly ordinary eyes will become a killing god who kills people on the battlefield without blinking.
"Heh, it turns out that the relationship between Lord Wenle and the Yuan family is so close, and now it seems that the two parties have never revealed the reason for this matter, and they also want to protect the Xu family, I can't think of it."
It's a pity that if he had known about this earlier, maybe the He family would have killed the Xu family, then there would be nothing to do with the Xu family now, and the war would not end so soon, and it was not certain who would have killed the deer.
But it's not too late, the Xu family is now a thorn in the eye of the He family, and he can't wait to uproot it, so he will pour another fire on the He family.
"I heard that the uncle of the He family is not very smart, so let's surrender to Second Master He."
Shang Wuwu came to Daqi for only one purpose, to be close to Kyoto, to be close to the center of power, and to disturb the court.
And now is an opportunity, unfortunately, the Xu family is the first object of his surgery, and the relationship with Xu Yunjin and a few people during this time almost made him shaken.
This can't be done, my mother is still waiting for him to take revenge.
"Yes." The dark guard has followed Shang Wuwu for many years, and he knows what to do with the master's words.
The man in black came and went without a trace, and the few guards around Han Shaozhi didn't notice it at all, but it was conceivable that his kung fu was strong.
Late at night, the backyard of Yongding County.
Jiang Baiyu was handling official business in the study, and he had no clue about the arson case in the Xu family's workshop, although he knew in his heart who the murderer was, but if he could find clues, even if he lost money, he could make the other party spit it out.
But the other party committed the crime late at night, there was no physical evidence, and the scene of the crime was burned by fire, and the arson case fell into a dead end.
Jiang Baiyu looked at the pile of useless news collected by the people below, only to feel a swelling pain in his head, and his hands were propped up on the desk to take a break.
Suddenly, there was a slight noise outside the door, which woke him up.
"Big Silver?" Jiang Baiyu called out to the entourage who was supposed to be guarding outside, but he didn't hear a response, and his heart sank.
"Since Your Excellency is here, why don't you come in and sit down."
As soon as Jiang Baiyu's voice fell, the people outside the house pushed the door in, only to see that the man was masked, dressed in black, and looked like a practitioner.
"I took the liberty to visit late at night, and I hope that Lord Jiang will forgive my sins."
The voice of the person who came was shrill and sharp, it should be a secret guard who has been hidden behind people all the year round, and if he didn't think about it, this person must have been sent by the He family.
Jiang Baiyu knew that if he shouted loudly now, I was afraid that his people hadn't come yet, either he was gone first, or the other party had already run away.
After weighing the two sides, let's see what the other party's purpose is.
"I don't know why you're here?"
Jiang Baiyu's eyes condensed slightly, and he glanced at the big silver lying on the ground, and the hand hidden in his sleeve tightened.
"Hehehe, Master Jiang doesn't have to worry, he just fainted, and he will naturally wake up in two quarters of an hour."
The man explained when he saw what he meant, and then the subject changed.
"Master Jiang, I heard that you are investigating the arson case of the Xu family's workshop?"
"Yes." Jiang Baiyu replied very honestly.
"Master Jiang shouldn't have found any favorable evidence in his hands, right?"
The man's words were very firm, and it also made Jiang Baiyu guess whether the arson case was done by the person in front of him.
"Yes, what do you know?" Jiang Baiyu remained silent, no matter what the purpose of this person was, he would stabilize it first.
"Hehehe, Master Jiang, I'll get straight to the point, my master said, I hope you don't help the Xu family in this matter, and you need to push the handle when necessary."
The man's eyes kept staring at Jiang Baiyu, as if he didn't agree that he would be in a different place in the next second.
"Heh, Xiangye is so sure that I will betray the Holy One?"
Jiang Baiyu didn't know where the other party got the courage to say this, he didn't know what to say.
"Xiangye asked me to ask my lord, do you remember what happened before I was three years old? Don't want to know why you became an orphan? Don't you want to know what your original surname is and what other relatives you have?"
The man in black asked four times in a row, Jiang Baiyu didn't have any expression on his face, and his thumb and index finger hidden under his sleeve couldn't help but rub it, which was his usual action when thinking about things.
"Who remembers what happened before I was three years old, I only know that when I was six years old, my master picked me up by the river, so my surname is Jiang, and the white jade represents the master's highest expectations for me."
Jiang Baiyu told the man in black in front of him all what Taishi Zhao had said to him.
"Hahaha, Master Jiang, you don't know yet, in fact, you have been admitting thieves as your father for more than twenty years.
If there are spirits in the ground of more than a dozen people in the Lu family, knowing that you still respect the enemies of the exterminating clan, I am afraid that the soul will not be able to rest in peace."
A flash of fake sympathy flashed in the man's eyes, Jiang Baiyu clenched his fists when he heard this, a flash of shock flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at the other party with a mocking expression.
"Oh, the master's nurturing grace to me, I have been watching it for so many years, go back and tell your master, don't try to provoke the friendship between our father and son."
The man saw Jiang Baiyu's entanglement, and knew that he couldn't accept this reality now, but would he come for nothing?
No.
"Lord Jiang, our Xiangye also learned about your background by chance, Ling Zun was originally Lu Long, the governor of Huainan River, you are the youngest child of Governor Lu, Ling Zun is young and promising, and at the age of thirty-five, he is already a local second-rank official, and he is a rare good official.
Twenty years ago, heavy rain fell in the Huainan area, and half of the river embankment collapsed, and people's homes were washed away and displaced.
Your father, who was originally bent on disaster relief and vowed to work with the people, was framed for embezzling money for the construction of the river embankment.
It was the first emperor and Zhao Taishi who were convicted, the first emperor issued a secret order to kill Governor Lu's seventeen families, and burned the Lu family to the ground.
After that, Taishi Zhao ruthlessly threw you to the Taoist temple when you were only three years old, and happened to pick you up by the river when you were six years old and took you home, his heart is vicious......
The man didn't say anything more, looking at Jiang Baiyu's increasingly pale face, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth hidden under the face towel.
The Lu family's corruption is already a certainty, even if it is faked, but twenty years have passed since the incident, and no one has found real evidence so far.
At that time, He and Zhao were playing, but in the end, the Lu family became cannon fodder, and the position of the governor of Huainan River fell into the hands of He Xiang.
Until now, when the Huainan area heard Lu Long's name, they were eager to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
Jiang Baiyu's background was still found out by the He family with great difficulty, so they gambled, betting on Qi Ren and Zhao Taishi
did not tell Jiang Baiyu his life experience.
"Impossible, impossible, the master said that I was born in poor health and was abandoned by my parents since I was a child, I have seen my real parents with my own eyes, although they are not doing well, they are still alive and well."
Jiang Baiyu didn't dare to accept this reality, he respected a master like his father, and he was the murderer who ruined his family.
"Hey, Lord Jiang, the villain knows that you can't accept it, but that's the case, this is your father's portrait, which is eight points similar to you.
Governor Lu and my family were originally close friends, and they also mediated the corruption of the Lu family in the past, if I had known that you had suffered so much when you were young, Xiang Ye would have brought you home early to live and raise you, and it can be regarded as a complete brotherhood with Governor Lu."
Jiang Baiyu took the portrait with trembling hands, and the man on the painting had a six-point portrait of him, but Lu Long's eyebrows and eyes were resolute, and at a glance, he knew that he was born as a military general.
His eyebrows and eyes are softer, more like a full-fledged reader, and people who are not very familiar with him really can't see it.
"Lord Jiang, our Xiangye has nothing else to ask for, but I can't bear you to be kept in the dark for so many years, the Lu family is wronged.
If you don't believe it, you can check it yourself, there were many suspicious points about the corruption of the Lu family back then, this is investigated by Xiangye, you check according to what is written on it, and you will know the true face of Master Zhao."
The man handed a booklet in his arms to Jiang Baiyu, he took it with trembling hands, and carefully examined it page by page, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Hey, Lord Jiang mourns."
The man sighed regretfully, while observing Jiang Baiyu's expression, and saw that his eyes were red, and he actually shed two lines of blood and tears.
He was stunned, and then a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, this is a reaction to the extreme pain.
The more it hurts, the more it hurts, the more it will hate, and the more it hates, the more violent the revenge will be!
The study was quiet for a long time, and the atmosphere was really oppressive, and the man felt a little uncomfortable.
"Please also tell Xiangye that if all this is true, Bai Yu is willing to serve him, and only hope that Xiangye will clear up the grievances of my Lu family on the day when Xiangye becomes a big event."
Jiang Baiyu closed his eyes deeply, and when he opened them again, his eyes had regained their original clarity, and he said to the man in a hoarse voice.
"Master Jiang, don't worry, Xiangye promises with the head of Xiang that he will return your Lu family's innocence."
The man reassured again and again, then left the study and turned to the roof to watch Jiang Baiyu's every move.
I saw that the county magistrate, who was breezy and moonlit on weekdays, was crying bitterly on the bookcase at the moment, and the cry made people can't help but empathize with it.
Seeing a scene that satisfied him, the man flew away from the roof.
