Chapter 354: Clues
After Xie Rongzhao came back, he comforted Chen Xia and the girl named Ah Tao, and then gave each of them a reward, and gave them two days off, so that they could have a good rest, so as not to slow down any longer.
Ah Tao is younger than Chen Xia, but I heard that he escaped from the Northland, he is young, but he is tall, even half a head taller than Xie Rongzhao, looking dry, but his strength is surprisingly great.
Ah Tao was discovered by Xie Xiuwen by accident, and then he felt that this child was good, and he could marry with Ganbao in the future, and he had a powerful girl who would definitely be able to protect Ganbao.
I didn't think about it, I just got married for a few days, so I used it.
Ah Tao only rested for one day, that scene, she didn't think it was terrifying, she had fled the famine, she had seen people eating people along the way, what could be better than those?
Xie Rongzhao didn't have much contact with Ah Tao before, when she was in Xie Mansion, there was only Chen Xia, a powerful big girl, Ah Tao was bought last year, and then she was taught the rules by Mama Wang for a few months before she was sent to her to serve.
Ah Tao doesn't know how to write and ink, so it's still Chen Xia who is usually in front of Xie Rongzhao.
"You will serve in my house in the future, just like Chen Xia, I should have two big girl rings, but I haven't found a suitable one."
"Yes, thank you, Madame."
"I heard you can't read?"
"Well, I don't know. The family was poor, and my father and mother were illiterate, and then they suffered and fled all the way to the famine, just thinking that they could eat their stomachs, and they didn't dare to think about anything else. ”
"From then on, let Chen Xia teach you to recognize five words every day, and you will follow me to practice calligraphy together in the small study in the future, I don't ask you how well you write, at least you have to be able to write, and the words you write can be understood."
"Huh? Do you still want to learn? Wouldn't it be too wasteful? The slave knows that the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are all precious things, and the slave and maid are all golden, and the slave and maid are all working, so they won't learn, right? ”
"You still have to learn." Xie Rongzhao said undoubtedly: "How can you not be literate when you are doing things by my side?" If you don't learn, then you don't want to follow me, and I'll let someone send you back to Xie Mansion? ”
Ah Tao immediately shook his head and knelt down directly: "Slave and maid learn, you let the slave and maid learn anything, just don't drive the slave and maid away." ”
Ah Tao Ke remembered it, when the old man bought her, he said that her mission in this life is to protect the good lady, oh, now it's Mrs. Cheng, in short, if Mrs. doesn't want her, then she is useless, this is not good!
Jingzhao Mansion moved quickly, and two days later, portraits of the scarred man had been posted everywhere, especially inside and outside the city gates.
It's really that the features on the scarred man's face are too obvious, and it's hard to ignore the long scar.
As for the identity of the man, Jingzhao Mansion is still investigating, and at present, it is only known that he was a soldier of King Ping, and the identity of those arrested people is too low, only his surname is Lin, and the rest are unknown.
Sooner or later, though.
The people of Jingzhao Mansion will not know that at this time, the scar man is shrinking in a farm outside the city, and now Zuo Xiaowei's people are searching everywhere every day, and the villages outside the city are not spared, which makes the scar man have to hide in Tibet.
Fortunately, he still touched a village in the alliance.
Xie Xiuwen has been guarding the gates of various cities for the past few days, just to see which nobles are out of the city.
There is such a big case, many female dependents in Beijing dare not go out of the house for the time being, as for those gentlemen and brothers, they have no plans to go out of the city for the time being, there are many places in the inner city to be happy and happy, why do you have to take risks?
All over the capital are strictly investigating the old department of King Ping, but everyone who hears some rumors is also clamping their tails at this time, and they dare not make trouble at this time, and those who can avoid the door basically choose to shrink.
However, Xie Yuan went out of the city.
Xie Yuan is the grandson of Xie Huaiyi, and he is also the eldest grandson that Xie Huaiyi values the most.
A few years ago, Xie Huaiyi finally couldn't help it, and asked his old friends to recommend him to join the office, and now he is serving in the household department.
Now that everyone is staying at home and not going out, this Xie Yuan is bold.
Of course, Xie Yuan is far more than the only person who goes out of the city, but among the people who are in the court and have some personal grudges with Xie Xiuwen, there is only one Xie Yuan.
After Xie Xiuwen got the news, he ordered someone to keep an eye on Xie Yuan to see where he had gone and who he had met.
Of course, the premise is that you can't startle the snake, it's really not good, it's okay to lose it, and it must not be exposed.
I have to say that Xie Yuan still has some brains.
After he left the city, he first went to the White Crane Academy, he had old friends in the White Crane Academy, this is not a secret, and then he was supported out by his subordinates, it seemed that he had drunk too much, and he was too drunk to stand on his feet.
So, after Xie Yuan's car drove out less than two miles, he saw Xie Yuan get out of the car and vomit, and then he was helped to get into the carriage again, but this time, the little guy hurriedly told the coachman to go to the nearest Zhuangzi to sober up first.
When they entered Zhuangzi, the people sent by Xie Xiuwen could no longer find out anything.
"Alright, I already know, you can go down and rest first."
"Yes, sir."
Although there is no empirical evidence, Xie Xiuwen is suspicious, and he will inevitably make up his mind to find out the truth.
After thinking about it, Xie Xiuwen still picked a few long-term workers from Zhuangzi who seemed to be loyal and honest, and it was more convenient for them to come forward and make people suspicious.
Xie Xiuwen's guess was right, the scar man was hiding in a village under Xie Yuan's name.
He also has no choice, he doesn't have a lot of money, and if he wants to escape, he has to have money in his hand.
And he doesn't want to leave Beijing yet, and the master's revenge hasn't been avenged.
Xie Yuan met with him, and naturally he had to be appeased.
"Now you are being arrested inside and outside the capital, your portrait has been posted everywhere, in my opinion, you can stay here for the time being, stay for a while, I will help you get a fake identity, do a good job of road guidance, you go to the north."
"No!" The scar man refused without thinking about it.
"My master's revenge has not been avenged, Xie Xiuwen, a thief, is still alive, how can I leave here?"
Xie Yuan originally just tried him, but seeing his resolute attitude, his face was embarrassed, but his heart was happy.
"Alas, now that he has been disturbed, it will be even more difficult for us to deal with him again. It's better to put it aside for a while and look for opportunities to act later. ”
The scar man was obviously unwilling: "If I have the opportunity to enter the city, I will definitely kill him directly in the street!" I don't believe that he can still dodge my knife as a literati! ”
Xie Yuan's eyes flashed slightly: "Don't be reckless, I will make a decision after I discuss with you." ”
