Outside, the sun's rays of sunlight shone in through the latticework and fell on the square table in front of the window.

The mottled light and shadow shrouded a world with temperature on the square table.

Lu Yangge rubbed the tea cup in his hand, waited for the tea to be warm, and raised his hand to drink it all.

The girl's eyes were full of doubts: "How does General Zhou Xiao know that I earned my current belongings with two hundred taels of silver?" Could it be that General Zhou noticed me early on and sent someone to keep an eye on me? ”

Two hundred taels of silver earned countless shops, she said this, but very few people really know.

Because, in fact, this is a lie.

When she was sent to the Lu family, the person who sent her did leave two hundred taels of silver, but the Lu family didn't dare to use the silver, and she didn't want to use it.

Later, I bought a shop in Jiangjiaba. The rent of the shop was used by her to help the widows and orphans.

Zhou Yang looked at the slightly petite girl in front of him, and said calmly: "If I say, the two hundred taels of silver I left to the county lord, the county lord can be trusted." ”

Lu Yangge's body stiffened when he heard this, and he looked at the young man opposite in surprise: "You left it?" ”

"Yes, I kept it."

Zhou Yang raised his hand and poured hot tea for Lu Yangge again, watched the tea wash the tea leaves in the cup and roll it up, and slowly unfolded it.

"I went to Dongyang County to run errands that year, and on the way back, I picked you up on the side of the deserted road. Because you were injured and unconscious, and I was in a hurry to return to Beijing, I took you to Jiangjiaba by the way, and handed you over to a fisherman surnamed Lu. At that time, I left two hundred taels of silver for the family and told them to treat you as much as possible. ”

Lu Yangge sneered lightly: "Then should I thank General Zhou Xiao for saving his life?" ”

"Not really." Zhou Yang is not going to rob others of the credit.

"I also said at the beginning, if you really can't be cured, ask them to buy a thin coffin and bury you alive. If it's the wicked-hearted man, leave you to fend for yourself. When the time comes, spend one or two taels of silver to buy a thin coffin and bury you. The Lu family is benevolent and righteous, so I dare not take this life-saving grace. ”

"I don't know anything."

Lu Yangge straightened his back, and his expression was a little trance-like: "General Zhou Xiao, are you sure that I am an orphan, or do you know that my family was ruined at that time and I had no relatives to rely on?" ”

Zhou Yang was stopped by her words for a while, and couldn't help but raise his hand and press it on the square table, hesitating.

Lie, what if the lie is exposed later.

Don't lie, if Lu Yangge knew the truth at that time, how could he agree to his request.

Zhou Yang could only bite the bullet and say: "If I say that when the accident in Lujiazhuang happened, I saw it with my own eyes, and it was just a coincidence that I met you on the side of the road later, can you believe it?" ”

"Is that you?"

Lu Yangge got up suddenly, looked at the young man sitting like a clock, his hands into fists, his eyes froze.

Lu Yangge raised his voice and asked sharply: "You were the one who led someone to kill my father and set fire to my Lujiazhuang that day?" Isn't it? ”

The past was like the wind, whistling and stirring up her memories.

The young man on horseback trampled on the door plaque of the Lu family's gate with his horse's hooves.

The arrow feather shot from the bow happened to hit her in the heart, and it was her father who fought with his life to protect her away. Behind her, there are burning flames, fallen relatives.

And the pair of cloth shoes with white soles, stepping in the dust, approaching step by step......

It turns out that the one who saved her was the one who killed her.

She has never understood how Chen Quan colluded with the government to steal Lujiazhuang's money and food, and then he was able to get out of the way.

It turned out to be Zhou Yang, the Marquis of Wu'an behind him, and General Lin.

With them, Chen Quan was able to get money and food, and the uprising was successful.

It was also with them that Chen Quancai stepped on Jinling and sat on the big chair of the Jinluan Palace.

"It's me."

Zhou Yang clenched the blue and white Lingzhi pattern golden bell cup in his hand, with an unpredictable expression, "I was indeed among the people who went to Lujiazhuang that day, but I was a little later than others." I didn't kill your father, and I didn't burn Lujiazhuang......"

"You're lying."

Lu Yangge trembled, she clenched her hands, and told herself in her heart that she wanted to fight for her anger, it was Chen Quan who was wrong, the person in front of her, not her.

They are sorry for the Lu family, sorry for her.

She should have scolded him, scolded him, and smacked him in the face.

Lu Yangge gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Zhou, Yang, you, lie." ”

"Before Lujiazhuang was burned, did you receive news that you wanted to help Qingfeng Village get a batch of grain, and this grain was in Lujiazhuang. And you happen to be from the previous dynasty, your uncle is Wu'anhou, and your uncle is General Lin. In the identity of the previous dynasty, he slandered Lu Yuanshan, the owner of Lujiazhuang, as a bandit, and then killed Lu Yuanshan and burned Lujiazhuang in the name of suppressing bandits, and then transported the money and grain of Lujiazhuang to the hands of Chen Quan in Huaicheng. ”

Lu Yangge has deduced the cause and effect of this matter countless times, and she has always known that Chen Quan and the former ministers of the former dynasty are in collusion. Otherwise, Dongyang County and Nanyang would not have fallen into the hands of the Red Tassel Army without much effort. When the Huaicheng uprising, money and food would not be so abundant.

But at that time, she couldn't find out who was the person who could make Dongyang County and Nanyang County listen to the order at the same time.

When she went to the Zhenguo Mansion today, she had suspected Prime Minister Gongsun, Jiang Yushi, Qi Yuan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and everyone who could still sit in a high position in the change of dynasty.

These people are all former ministers of the former dynasty.

Chen Quan's ascension to the throne, and only these people who can sit firmly in the official position are the most suspicious.

But she didn't expect that this person would be Zhou Yang.

Only he can make General Lin give up defending his family and the country, act for the tiger, and lead the Lin family army to join the Red Silk Army halfway and break the capital.

Only he can let Wu Anhou do the internal response in the capital, and when the Red Silk Army attacked the city, he managed to open the city gate, so that the Red Silk Army could drive straight into the palace directly.

He was the only one who, because of his identity, was in the palace and helped Chen Quan sit on the dragon chair.

The city was broken, the palace fell, and it was also Zhou Yang who strangled Princess Anyang of the former dynasty in front of his father, and let his uncle have to expelle his own brother.

The second room of the Zhou family left him alone.

Zhou Yang looked at the girl in front of him whose cheeks were red because of anger.

Xu is wearing cloud brocade today, and the gorgeous cloud brocade sets off the people in front of him like bright stars and moons.

She is so clever that she can almost grasp the slightest thread, and she can peel back the cocoon and deduce all the causes and consequences.

Over the years, he watched her grow from a small fisherman to a farmer, and finally stepped into the capital step by step with her own strength.

Such a smart girl was a chess piece he left back then.

What did he think at the time, if this chess piece can be used, then use it perfectly.

If this chess piece is useless, it is just a good deed that you have done and saved an innocent little girl.

Zhou Yang never thought that the chess pieces of the year would become a sharp blade.

At this moment, the sharp tip of the knife glowed with a cold light, facing him.

If he is not careful, he may fall into a life-and-death situation today.
