Su Chang trembled very much.

The strip of cloth was covered, the eyelids under him couldn't help but tremble, the eyeballs were rolling, the fear was pressing on his heart, and he couldn't control himself.

His thoughts were chaotic, and he couldn't make a good judgment, so he could only keep "me".

Outside, Xu Jian couldn't see Su Chang's figure, and he didn't need to look at it, he knew what Su Chang's reaction would be now.

Invisible and intimidated, a life is completely pinched in the hands of others, and the fear of death is not something that people like Su Chang can bear.

This is also the reason why Xu Jian chose Su Chang.

Doheng couldn't dig out the news from his mouth, so he had to take a different path.

Xu Jian was not in a hurry at all: "You finished answering, someone sent you back to the shop, as long as you are stable, no one knows that you have been questioned, you just ate too much wine during the banquet last night, and you only went back when you sobered up in the morning."

If you can't hold it down, then I can't help you, although for me, it's better for me to be alive than dead.

I'm talking, after all, you are a vine here with me, a vine that can touch melons, what is your identity with your master and Daoheng's master?"

Heavy pressure rolled in layer upon layer.

Su Chang couldn't stand it anymore, and his mind was full of "life is more useful than death".

He wanted to live, but he didn't live enough.

Stammering, Su Chang said, "Wang, Wang Qi, the person who killed Dao Heng is called Wang Qi."

The embankment is generally broken, and the first sentence is spoken, and it is not difficult to follow it.

"I'm following Su Yi, but I'm just a minion, what Su Yi is planning, he can't tell me."

"All I know is that he's not very happy with the result, and he doesn't think he's benefited enough."

"I'm just running errands, passing on a few words, that's all."

"I've seen Dao Heng before, so I know him, and as for Wang Qi, I only saw him for the first time the day he took Dao Heng."

"He came early, and as soon as my shop opened, he arrived, and said that he had been ordered by his master to take Dao Heng away, because Dao Heng had not done a good job."

"Where do I dare to care about their people's affairs, I have been staying in the backyard, and then Dao Heng came, the two of them fought, and Dao Heng was defeated by Wang Qi."

"Wang Qi carried Dao Heng into the sedan chair from the back door, I know that Dao Heng is more than lucky, but I don't know what to do."

"In Chenmi Hutong, I saw Gonggong Tong, and Su Yi asked me to bring a message to Gonggong Tong, saying that he was not satisfied with what he discussed with Honglu Temple, and wanted to ask if there were any good ideas over there."

"Who's over there...... I don't know, I'm a minion and only a minion."

"That's it, that's it!"

After saying this, Su Chang breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought he had answered well, and he had answered all three questions asked by the other party.

Regardless of whether the answer is accurate or not, at least it has been said.

Unexpectedly, he was responded with a mocking chuckle.

Rao is Su Chang didn't know the identity of the other party, nor did he know what the other party looked like, and he could also draw a pair of sarcastic eyes in his mind.

He couldn't help but shudder again.

"Su Chang," the man's voice came in, word by word clear, "I'm very sincere, but it's a pity you don't."

Su Chang instinctively wanted to refute.

Xu Jian's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest: "First time I saw Wang Qi? You believe what he says?

There was no question, and I didn't give Dao Heng a wake-up call, speaking of which, you are familiar with Dao Heng.

Compared to Wang Qi you don't know, Dao Heng is undoubtedly a subordinate of the people who have formed an alliance with Su Yi, and you will not have no bias in your heart.

Are you so easy to fool? Su Yi knows that you are such a stupid thing, can he let you do things?

Is there no one in your ancient moon?"

Su Chang's throat tightened, as if he had been choked by someone.

At this moment, he realized once again that the person who captured him was not easy to deal with.

The first sentence he pointed out about Wang Qi was the truth after being frightened, and then he continued to say it

, he calmed down a little, didn't pour out the whole thing, avoided the important and light, and wanted to bring everything over....

If you can get him out, it won't hurt Su Yi's business.

But the few words he made up in a hurry were obviously full of loopholes in the ears of the other party.

The other party only pointed out the first problem now, and did not talk about the last two, thinking that it was not that he didn't hear the problem, but that the order of accounting should also be discussed.

Sincerity......

Can he really make that person have sincerity three times?

Su Chang didn't dare to gamble.

"It's really not the first time I've seen Wang Qi," Su Chang gave up making it up, "The first time I saw him was in Su Yi's account, it seems that the year before last, he came to see Su Yi once, but I really don't know what he talked about.

I only met with him, and Su Yi introduced a sentence and said Wang Qi's name.

So Wang Qi came to the door that day and wanted to borrow my shop to lead Dao Heng, but I didn't care.

I told him that if you want to kill someone, don't be in my shop, and I still have to do business openly.

Wang Qi should also take care of Su Yi, and only knocked people unconscious.

I don't know much about Wang Qi, but I've seen him twice in total, and I know that he is very good at kung fu, and he has always been a knife in their place, and when they want to kill, Wang Qi mostly uses it."

After saying these words, Su Chang didn't dare to waste his sincerity, and continued to say it honestly.

"Chen Mi Hutong is really Tong Gonggong, I didn't lie, Su Yi and the court were not satisfied, urging the other party to come up with more ideas, and the other party kept prevaricating, which made Su Yi very unhappy."

"I finally saw Father-in-law Tong, and he also played Tai Chi with me, so I couldn't have a good deal with Su Yi."

"You can know so many things, and you must also know that the conditions that Gu Yue negotiated with you in the end are actually like that."

"However, Gonggong Tong did mention it, saying that Su Yi was a step late. If it was to go to Beijing last year to talk, we could still put some pressure on the princess, just point to the county lord on the tip of the queen mother's heart, the queen mother did not agree, and the saint had to give us more or less a concession, but unfortunately it was too late, and the county lord had a marriage contract."

Su Chang said to himself, he couldn't see it, and he didn't perceive it, and the person who was standing behind him blindfolded him and took the cloth strip turned his head once when he heard this.

Sanchen hurriedly glanced outside, and then withdrew his gaze.

He couldn't see Xu Jian.

But he thought, I'm afraid their lord's mood will not be good.

Even if Gu Yue didn't really want to kiss, if he said that the county lord was going to do something, their lord would definitely have emotions.

This is normal.

Su Chang said again: "As for the people who do business with Su Yi, it's not that I'm hiding it, it's that I really don't know.

It is impossible for Su Yizhu to tell me such an important matter, and I dare not inquire.

But the other party can command the inner servant, which shows that the identity is not ordinary.

If you really want to know, then as you just said, put me back, and let me stay in the shop as the vine, and see if you can touch the melon.

It's the truth, it's the truth."

This time, Xu Jian did not question Su Chang's sincerity again.

He leaned back in his chair, frowning slightly.

He knows about "harmony."

The little county lord mentioned that the illness of the former queen mother in the late winter and early spring of the twelfth year of Yongjia must have something behind it, and it should be on the kiss.

Gu Yue took her as the reason, the queen mother was reluctant and angry, and after the matter passed, she simply decided to marry her.

Xu Jian is no longer good at walking, and it is better to get in and out of a wheelchair than to be calculated.

However, when I guessed it, I really heard it from Su Chang, the ancient moon, and it was really unpleasant.

It's just that no matter how unhappy he is, he won't show his clues in front of Su Chang.

Su Chang is now panicked, and when he gets out and calms down, what if he is allowed to taste something from this conversation......

It is true that the person behind him "saw" him.

So many confrontations forced the other party to abandon Dao Heng if the other side was unaware of

How could he and Lin Yunyan be cornered?

The person behind him has his ability and ability, and he is by no means easy to deal with or fool.

Xu Jian knows this very well.

Abandoning Dao Heng will not make the other side glad that he can get rid of some of the constraints, but will be angry and tempted.

"Seeing" him does not mean figuring out his thoughts, and the confrontation will be more intense later.

Therefore, every step should be more cautious.

There are more clues to be mined than sacrifices to be given, and that is to make money.

Every time he earns more than the other side, and the other side loses more, it is Xu Jian's goal.

"That father-in-law," Xu Jian asked, "How much do you know?" To tell you the truth, I really didn't remember for a while that there was a father-in-law surnamed Tong next to someone with an unusual status."

"I didn't tell a lie," Su Chang said busily, "He claimed to be surnamed Tong, and if he made a mistake, he also lied to me."

He—he looked like he was in his forties, he was very thin, and his eyes were long.

I don't know how to describe him, he is different from Wang Qi, Wang Qi still has a scar that can be recognized, and the Tong father-in-law really has no characteristics.

When he speaks, he is shrill and sharp, and whatever the eunuch is, he is."

Su Chang racked his brains and desperately recalled: "By the way, he doesn't eat alcohol, and when I talked about things in the house that day, I drank two glasses, and poured him wine, but he didn't drink a sip.

I don't think he knows how to drink, as if he just doesn't want to drink with me.

He doesn't like a little minion like me."

After listening to this, Xu Jian asked again, "How long has Su Yi been doing business here?"

"I ......" Su Chang subconsciously wanted to say "I don't know", but there was a momentary hesitation when the words came to his mouth, and it was impossible to cover up the past anymore.

Having said so much, there is no need for him to hide a little more.

If you are stamped with "insincerity" because of this, so much has been said in vain.

Broken jar, Su Chang said: "Su Yi has been in the company for almost 20 years, and he was a newcomer in the first few years, with no qualifications.

Fifteen years ago or sixteen years ago, Gu Yue also had a group of envoys to your capital, and he was elected as an envoy in the Chinese language of the Soviet Assembly.

After this visit, he gradually got up, and he had to be windy and rainy all these years, and he had a lot of ability.

I'm not sure exactly what happened, but I guess it was probably he who came there and hooked up with great people."

Su Chang couldn't remember the specific time, but Xu Jian could recall it.

He sat in the Ministry of Rites for so many days, and accompanied His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to read so many boring and boring old year's documents, including the materials of the reception of envoys over the years.

In the autumn of the twenty-fifth year of Taixing, an envoy from Guyue visited the capital.

It was a calm year, but perhaps, the underwater tide had already appeared.

The two may not be embarrassed to do it for women at that time, but it should be a beginning, and finally step by step to today.

There are still clues missing, but they still give Xu Jian some inspiration.

Compared with the virtuous king who looked at him in the Jinluan Palace today, and the king of Jin, who had a good conversation all the way, Li Ren, the prince of Ping, was much less suspicious.

Prince Ping is the emperor's uncle and the brother of the first emperor.

In the twenty-fifth year of Taixing, as the brother valued by Emperor Taixing at that time, even if he had other thoughts, he couldn't look down on the fledgling Su Yi.

If you want to do business, Prince Ping will have a good choice, instead of waiting for Su Yihua to emerge for so many years.

Moreover, the current Su Yi dares to directly express his "dissatisfaction" and urge him to come up with some ideas there, which shows that this transaction was relatively "equal" back then.

One is an official of Guyue who wants to stand out, and the other is an ordinary prince who is planning to seize the throne and is suppressed by the emperor's eldest son Li Cang, so this business can be done.

Seeing that Su Chang couldn't ask anything more, Xu Jian's knuckles knocked three times on the armrest.

The senchen inside heard it and stuffed the strip of cloth back into Su Chang's mouth, but did not untie it

Blindfold.

Su Chang began to tremble again, until he was hit by a knife and completely fainted.

Samchen withdrew from the ear chamber.

Xu Jian said in a low voice, "Send him back quietly, and I'll go to the Yamen."

Samchen was a little embarrassed.

Xuan Su wasn't there, and he didn't follow, not like words.

Xu Jian saw his look in his eyes and chuckled, "It's okay, it's just a few steps."

Sitting in a sedan chair, Xu Jian went to Shuntian Mansion.

He took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, and on it was a portrait of Wang Qi.

Xu Jianding watched it for a while, it was time to avenge Shenchen.

In the back office, Shan Shen is still anxious, and the progress in Sidao Hutong is not optimistic.

Xu Jian entered the house and closed the door with his hand.

The light in the room dimmed, and Master Shan didn't raise his head, and said, "It's blocking the light."

The door didn't open, only a piece of paper was pressed in front of him.

Shan Shen glanced at the portrait and raised his head with a frown: "Who is this person?"

Xu Jian said directly: "The murderer who killed Dao Heng."

"Are you sure?" Shan Shen was surprised, "How do you know? Who witnessed it? What is it called? Where are the people?"

"I can't catch it," Xu Jian said very bluntly, "Didn't Master Shan say it yesterday?" Bear fruit, let the yamen see that it is good, and it is useless to dig it up."

Shan Shen's face turned pale.

He did say that.

He also knew that Dao Heng was thrown out to tease him.

"Killing Dao Heng is just to block the yamen, and the exposed chess pieces are useless," Xu Jian's fingertips tapped on the portrait, "If this is also exposed, do you think it will be abolished?"

If you are as shrewd as you are cautious, how can you not understand what Xu Jian means?

If you can't catch it, you can force the other party to scrap it.

Even if the other party doesn't throw people out of the yamen this time, at least, it is enough to disgust the other party.

It doesn't make sense, only they Shuntianfu are disgusted.

He can't solve the case, but he can make the instructions behind him uncomfortable.

He has been in the yamen for so many days, and he is tired and angry, so he has to pay tribute in return.

Thinking of this, Shan Shen glanced at Xu Jian again.

He and Xu Jian have also worked together a few times, and he believes that this young grandfather will not use the public for personal gain in these cases, make up a murderer indiscriminately, and involve irrelevant people.

Fu Guogong said that this person was a murderer, so it must be.

As for how it was determined......

Shan Shen is not not curious, but can endure this curiosity.

Everyone has their own way.

Fu Guogong was able to directly lead them to find the place where Wang had been staying for six years, and now he can also directly lay out the murderer in front of him.

Bodhisattva, the spirit is done

He worships the Bodhisattva and offers incense, so how does the Bodhisattva manifest himself?

"Since you said so," Shan Shen smiled, "I'll have the bounty out."

In the afternoon, in the spice shop on West Street, Su Chang sat in the backyard in a daze.

He didn't know how he got back, but he knew that he should have escaped.

His captors did not break their promise, and sent him back in the morning.

The shopkeeper just asked him why he hadn't seen anyone before, and Su Chang pushed it to last night's banquet according to the prepared rhetoric.

I ate too much, I was drunk and dazed, and I didn't come back all night.

He smelled of wine all over his body, and he didn't show his stuffing.

He thought that as long as he hid from the people on both sides, he would be safe.

didn't know why, Xu Shizhen was frightened, and his heart kept going up and down.

Until the footsteps in front of him were hurried, the door was pushed open, and the shopkeeper's probe looked at him: "Boss!"

Su Chang was excited: "What's wrong?"

"There's a notice in the city offering a reward," said the shopkeeper, "catch the murderer, the portrait is the one who came to the shop that day, he, he to the end."

How is it exposed? Why was he targeted by the yamen? The yamen won't find out about our shop, will they?"

Su Chang's face turned pale, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

After a while, he said, "Don't scare yourself, wait for the yamen to come."

The people of the yamen did not come until it was dark and the shops were closed.

In the dead of night, in a house, Cheng Xi knelt on the ground, bent his neck and didn't dare to make a sound.

In front of Cheng Xi, the master's face was extremely ugly, and not far from the ground, there was a broken tea bowl.

"Wang Qi will miss too?" The master asked.

Cheng Xi didn't dare to talk at all.

Dao Heng was killed by Wang Qi, but things were not done beautifully enough, and he was caught by Shuntianfu with clues, and his facial features were directly drawn on the reward.

That's a miss.

"What about others?" The master asked again.

Cheng Xi could only say, "In his room."

"You go and see him," the master said coldly, "let him recall his memories carefully, how did he fail?" I've raised him for so many years, not to raise a waste!"

Cheng Xi answered, and crawled out with his hands and feet back.

When he climbed to the door, he was stopped by Jin Guiren again.

"You know what to do after you ask, right?"

Cheng Xi's teeth chattered, and his voice was shaking: "The little one knows."

"That's good," Jin Guidao said, "don't miss again, one after the other, like something."

Cheng Xi was so scared that he couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to send it out?"

"Send?" Jin Guiren sneered, "Can you send it unnoticed? It's right here, and it's an example to the monkeys."

Cheng Xi should be down.

Outside the door, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It's okay to deal with it here, at least, he doesn't have to worry about "missing".

Just as I was thinking about it, there was another crunch in it.

He heard it, and the master smashed another teacup.
