Chapter 181: Their Rashomon
Jiang Xie was a little impatient when he heard this, and interrupted the argument between them.
"Make it clear, Chen Yu, have you been imprisoned, Dong Qingshan, you said that Chen Yu was sick and you were on the boat for him, right?"
"Yes......" Dong Qingshan subconsciously responded, but then regretted: "No, no!" Master Chen and I were sailing together, and even if the adults were not there, I should have boarded the boat and traveled, but this time I sailed alone. ”
"When did I say that you were sick, you obviously didn't let me get on the boat, and after I got on the boat, you imprisoned me in order to prevent me from ruining your good deeds!"
Chen Yu took advantage of the situation to argue, and the two quarreled, not wanting to let it go at all.
"My lord, you have to speak with your conscience, what good thing can you disturb me? What good do I have to do and imprison you? ”
"Don't you know what you're doing?"
……
The two of them quarreled back and forth, which made people irritated.
"Enough!"
Jiang Xie's anger soared, and he pointed at Dong Qingshan: "Xiangxiu took him down for me, so that he can take care of it!" No one is allowed to see him without my orders! ”
"Yes, sir!"
After Dong Qingshan was taken away, Jiang Xie's mood slowly calmed down.
He looked at Chen Yu again: "Come, tell me what you know, don't deceive at all." ”
"Yes."
Chen Yu's attitude has always been very sincere, and his emotions have not fluctuated too much, and when it comes to what happened in the past, his expression is much more natural than Dong Qingshan's.
"I am the transfer envoy in charge of transshipment, and I have an assistant called the transshipment officer, that is Dong Qingshan, this person looks loyal, but in fact, he has a bad heart."
"Why did Lord Chen say this?" Huo Yijun stepped forward.
Chen Yu said: "Dong Qingshan has always had dealings with wizards, and this transfer is the official silver, and the return shipping is the purple lazuli, and these wizards are fighting the idea of purple lazuli. ”
"So as soon as I got on the boat, Dong Qingshan imprisoned me in the cabin. And then don't let me touch the outside. But I still heard him talking to the wizard in the cabin. ”
"He stole the official silver transported by the official ship as his own, and falsely claimed that the official silver had been transported to the southwest disaster area, and he transferred all the purple lazuli on the return voyage to the wizard."
"That's what he did."
Jiang Xie's face was calm after hearing this, and he didn't react at all to such a statement, just like he usually heard the story.
"You mean that Dong Qingshan stole the official silver from the ship and gave the purple lazuli carried on the return voyage to the wizard, is that so?" Huo Yijun asked the words.
Chen Yu replied firmly: "That's right, that's it. ”
"Then I have questions, and I ask Master Chen to solve my doubts."
"Lord Huo, please ask."
Huo Yijun paced in front of him, and asked in a slow tone: "Dong Qingshan is guarding and stealing, how did he steal?" ”
"As far as we have investigated, this ship has not docked, which means that there can only be official silver on the ship, and there is no purple lazuli at all, Lord Chen, did you really hear that Dong Qingshan gave the purple lazuli to the wizard?"
Two questions, one sharper than the other.
Huo Yijun found that Chen Yu was hearing such a question, his eyes wandered, he blinked quickly, and rubbed his sleeves with both hands, which was a sign of lying.
In this way, some or even more of what he said was false, because what he said and Dong Qingshan contradicted each other.
"Lord Chen, Lord Huo is asking you! Do you still need to think about this kind of thing? ”
Jiang Xie became more and more impatient. Because he felt that what Chen Yu said was similar to what Dong Qing said, both of them were deceiving, and what they said was not credible.
"My lord, what I said is true, if you don't believe it, you can ask Lord Xiangxiu, you can ask him if he found a box containing purple lazuli on the ship!"
"The purple lazuli is packed in boxes, and it is impossible to leave a single residue on the ship every time. If someone like that person found the box on the ship, it means that the purple lazuli was not transported to Yingdu at all. ”
"It was not transported to Yingdu, which means that the purple lazuli was robbed halfway. Moreover, the person who came directly loaded the purple lazuli and did not take the box with him, so you will definitely be able to find the box if you go to search. ”
What Chen Yu said seems to make a lot of sense.
Jiang Xie didn't plan to continue asking, threw Huo Yijun a look, and then went out together to find a rest.
Cabin back kitchen.
Xiang Xiu was boiling medicine for Jiang Xie, and Malvac was also boiling medicine, the two looked at each other, mallow couldn't speak, and Xiang Xiu kept telling her jokes.
"Do you know what melons you can't eat?"
Mallow shook her head.
Holding his face in his hands, he dressed up as a 'flower' and approached her in front of the mallow to make her laugh: "A little fool like me! ”
Malqueh couldn't help but laugh when she lowered her head.
"You laugh! Hahaha! Xiang Xiu laughed on the side.
In the corridor, Jiang Xie and Huo Yijun walked over and happened to see this scene, and subconsciously stopped.
"They're decocting potions, or shall we go back later?" Huo Yijun turned his head to look at Jiang Xie, expecting his reply.
Jiang Xie didn't respond, and walked over directly.
Xiang Xiu and Mallow got up, saluted Jiang Xie and Huo Yijun respectively, and then hurriedly poured medicine on the masters and sent them over.
"My lord, come and drink while it's hot."
Jiang Xie pushed his hand and refused: "You put it aside first, I have something to ask you." ”
"Your Excellency, do you want to ask me about the results of taking people to search the ship?"
"yes, what did you find?"
Xiang Xiu stepped forward and emphatically emphasized: "There is indeed a harvest, I have found a few empty boxes containing purple lazuli!" ”
