Chapter 128: The Peak Turns Around
"The reason why Zhao Liang committed suicide was definitely not because he was afraid of affecting his family."
"Why?"
Du Ziqi said coldly: "Because he is alone, how can he come to his family?" ”
Then he looked at Su Zhou again and said slowly: "I also know that the reason why General Su wants to cooperate with Su Gongzi is just to trick my words." It doesn't have to be that way at all. ”
"If I don't want to say it, even if I have a knife and an axe, I will never say half a word. When I want to say, you don't have to ask, I'll tell you. ”
was told that he was in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and Su Zhou couldn't help but touch his nose.
However, Su Shi didn't have an embarrassed expression, and he asked again, "What else?" ”
At this time, Du Ziqi's face showed a trace of sadness: "Cui Peng's death was indeed an accident, and no one planned to kill him." ”
No matter how sincere Du Ziqi said, Zhou Jin would not believe it, she snorted coldly and asked: "You keep saying that Cui Peng's death is not premeditated, so you answer me, why did you appear in Pingningfang?" Why did you call Zhao Liang's carriage so coincidentally? That horse was bitten by a wild dog so coincidentally? But there was another wild dog on the Pingning Bridge, and the bearing of the carriage broke so coincidentally at that time? ”
Du Ziqi said with a wry smile: "The reason why I appeared in Pingning Fang was because Lu Yaozong said that Cui Peng was in Kumho Spring at night, and at that time I suddenly remembered that I hadn't met him for at least two years, so I set the celebration banquet at Pingning Fang on a whim." ”
"Lu Yaozong?"
Su Zhou whispered on the side: "It was Lu Yaozong who took action to solve the matter of Cui Peng's brother-in-law being coerced. Cui Peng wanted to ask him to go to the banquet that night, but Lu Yaozong couldn't leave that day. ”
"Lu Yaozong is not eating for incense?"
Su Zhou shook his head.
At this time, they heard Zhou Jin ask again, "What about Zhao Liang?" Why did you choose Zhao Liang's carriage? ”
Du Ziqi sighed: "Because I already know Zhao Liang, and when I see Zhao Liang there, I will naturally choose his carriage." ”
Zhou Jin said slowly: "In this way, you just had a meal at Shiweixiang, and then happened to meet Cui Peng, and after drinking him, you happened to meet Zhao Liang again." ”
"I know you won't believe it." Du Ziqi sighed: "But this is the case. ”
Zhou Jin kept sneering, and then asked Su Shi, "Do you believe his words?" ”
"Since Cui Peng's death was really an accident, why did Zhao Liang commit suicide? And so resolutely. ”
"Because although Cui Peng's death was an accident, since you found him, he was worried that his secret would be found out by you, so he chose to commit suicide."
"What's the secret?"
Du Ziqi smiled and said, "Since Zhao Liang will defend this secret with his death, how can I tell you." ”
Su Shi didn't continue to ask, he thought about it seriously and said, "I believe you, Cui Peng's death was indeed an accident. ”
Not only Zhou Jin and Su Shi were surprised, but even Du Ziqi was surprised, because he couldn't imagine that Su Shi would believe him so easily.
So he couldn't help but ask, "Why?" ”
"Three reasons, motivation, timing, and people."
Without waiting for others to ask, Su Shi explained: "I said, I have always been unable to figure out why to attack Cui Peng, if it is said that in order to eliminate hidden dangers, the other party will never endure it for seven years." ”
Then he looked directly at Du Ziqi and said with a smile: "And I believe that he wants Cui Peng to die, just one sentence, Cui Peng will definitely commit suicide without hesitation like Zhao Liang, and there is no need to create an accident at all." ”
Du Ziqi suddenly looked at Su Shi with a respectful look, just like looking at that person. Because he found that in this world, Su Shi may be the only one who can understand him.
"The second is timing, even if the other party has the motive to kill Cui Peng, it is definitely not a good time to do it last night."
Speaking of this, he smiled and continued: "You were about to track down Cui Peng, Cui Peng had an accident, and when you encounter such a thing, no matter who you are, you will suspect it." Even if you can't find any evidence, you will always plant a thorn in your heart. With such a smart brain of the other party, he would never have thought of this. ”
"What does it mean to be human?" Zhou Jin couldn't help but ask.
Su Shi sighed: "Even if the other party has to get rid of Cui Peng last night, he shouldn't let Master Du make a move." ”
"Why?"
Su Shi pondered: "Because of the incident of the Red Plum Pavilion, Lord Du is also involved, if Lord Du appears again in Cui Peng's matter, in the eyes of people with careful thoughts, Lord Du will inevitably arouse suspicion." ”
Speaking of this, Su Shi smiled: "I didn't suspect Lord Du about the Red Plum Pavilion, but it was because I heard Lord Du's name again in this matter that I was alerted. ”
Hearing that Su Shi was still boasting about himself at this time, Zhou Jin couldn't help but smile, but she had to admit that Su Shi was indeed a thoughtful person.
"But although Cui Peng's death was an accident, the haunting of the Red Plum Pavilion was a scene performed by you, Cui Peng and Tang Ci, you won't deny it, right?"
Du Ziqi smiled bitterly: "Since Su Gongzi's mind is so meticulous, how can I deny it." ”
"Why?"
"Do what you are told."
"Do what you are told? Didn't he tell you why? ”
Du Ziqi nodded and said slowly: "The order I got is how to arrange the manpower, and then report what I have seen and heard to Your Majesty." ”
"What about Cui Peng and Tang Ci?"
"Cooperate with others to play this play."
Su Shi fell into deep thought, his brows gathered together, and the others couldn't help but hold their breath and look at him in a daze.
After a long time, Su Shi looked up at Du Ziqi and asked slowly: "Did you know that Cui Peng and Tang Ci were in the same organization like you. ”
"Organization? What organization? Du Ziqi frowned and couldn't help asking.
Su Shi was taken aback: "Didn't you join any organization?" ”
Du Ziqi was furious and said: "As the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, I will only be loyal to the Son of Heaven, how can I join any organization?" ”
Seeing Du Ziqi so angry, it didn't seem like he was lying, and he couldn't help touching his nose.
Because this thing has become more and more weird, so weird that some of him can barely scratch his head.
Su Shi took a deep breath, and then asked word by word, "What is your relationship with him?" ”
Du Ziqi closed his mouth tightly again.
"You're still going to defend him."
Du Ziqi hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "Although I don't know why he planned the haunting incident of the Red Plum Pavilion, I know that he didn't hurt anyone. ”
"What about the Prince? Why did he kill the crown prince? ”
