The young Xu Jiashu still told his lies in front of Zhuang Shitong, an official of Chang'an Prefecture who came to inquire about the situation at the time of the crime.

Compared with what I said to Begonia before, it is a little more perfect.

He claimed to be the son of Jin Juren's old man's nurse, his father was deceased, and his mother used to be Jin Juren's original maid, married to an ordinary farmer as his wife, and had no livelihood after losing his husband, so he had to turn back to the old master for help. But the old master has passed away, and the old master's husband Jin Juren took in her mother and son, let her be a nurse for her newborn son, and let her son Xu Jiashu wait in the study, and teach the child to read and read in his spare time, so although Xu Jiashu is the son of a servant, he has a certain amount of knowledge.

However, Mrs. Jin, the wife of Jin Juren, did not like the maid in the front room, and always asked Xu Jiashu to work roughly, so the skin on his hands was rough and he also had chilblains.

However, the nurse and Xu Jiashu's mother and son have a good relationship and depend on each other. The nurse made a full set of winter clothes for her son, every stitch and thread is a mother's heart, even if the clothes can only be cheesecloth, Xu Jiashu still cherishes it very much. Now, if the government wants to take away his bloodstained clothes as evidence, he doesn't want to let go of them anyway.

As for the gorgeous robe, it was indeed given to Xu Jiashu by Jin Juren, but there was a reason for it. At that time, they were in a hurry, Jin Juren always felt that someone was following him, worried that he was being targeted by the gangsters, so Mrs. Jin gave him an idea, let Xu Jiashu put on his robe, and then let the nurse wear her cloak, and the mother and son took the carriage of Jin Juren and his wife, acting as a stand-in for the master, and took the first step to lead away the followers, so that Jin Juren and their children could leave safely.

It's just that before this plan could be implemented, the Jin family and his party encountered a killer who blocked the way. Everyone did not escape, only Xu Jiashu was held in the arms of his "mother", only stabbed once, plus hit in the leg by the carriage, because he fell in a pool of blood and fell unconscious, the killer mistakenly thought that the mother and son had been stabbed to death by him together, and became a fish that slipped through the net.

In fact, after the knife passed through the nurse's body, it only slashed through Xu Jiashu's waist. His injuries were not light, but not fatal, and he would pass out in a coma, both because the injuries were too painful, and because he was greatly stimulated by witnessing his "mother" die for himself blocking a knife.

When Haixi Cliff, Hai Chang'an, and the guards tried to lift the carriage and rescue him, he had actually woken up. Faced with the reality of the tragic death of his loved one again, he couldn't help but cry out in pain, the injury was not light, and the crying exhausted his physical strength, and he lost consciousness again.

However, after treatment and a night's rest, he is now awake, mentally stable again, and can clearly recount what happened last night.

He remembered the number of killers, the way they dressed, and the weapons they carried, and he could describe the physical features of two of them, and he remembered who they had poisoned first, and how they refused to let go of even the women and children. These people were not interested in the gold and silver belongings carried in the Jin family's luggage. The Jin Juren offered to bribe them with the gold, begging them to spare their own family's lives, but they only slashed the chest containing the gold to the ground with a single sword, leaving the shiny gold ingots scattered in the dirt.

It's just that Xu Jiashu, as the son of a nurse, sat in the carriage behind him with his "mother", and he didn't know why the killers wanted to kill Jin Juren's family. He could only hear a few loud conversations between Jin Juren and the leader of the killer, and he didn't hear a word of those low-volume conversations.

He didn't know what Jin Juren was doing in Chang'an, he didn't know why Jin Juren took that road, and he didn't know what enemies the Jin family had provoked. He's just a little pitiful guy who doesn't know anything, and he's just a pitiful one who has suffered from the fish in the pond.

Zhuang Shitong looked at the little pity in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

He was a little unwilling to give up, so he had to continue to knock on the side: "What is the name of Jin Juren?" Where did he come from? Didn't you mention where you want to go? Who else is in his family? Now that the three members of the Jin family are dead, someone needs to deal with the things behind them. Since you are the son of a servant and you are injured, you are afraid that it will be inconvenient to come forward, so you still have to let the Jin family clan come to do it. ”

Xu Jiashu hesitated for a moment before he said in a low voice: "Jin Juren's single name is a forest character, and the word is Maolin." Mrs. Kim's maiden name is Liu. They...... Originally, he lived in Zunhua Prefecture in Zhili. Kim ...... There is only one Jin Juren in the long room, and there are still people in the second room, but they ...... I'm probably not in my hometown right now......"

Zhuang Shitong hurriedly asked, "Then where are they?" How do you find them? ”

Xu Jiashu hesitated even more, stopped talking, and after a long while, he said in a slur manner: "Lord Tongju, my injury is not serious, and I will be able to get up after a few days." When the time comes...... I'll go and do the funeral for the Jin family. Gold and silver are ready-made, what to do in the funeral, I also know that the Jin family will be buried with dignity, and I will find a way to send the coffin and relics back to my hometown afterwards. If you have to go to the second room of the Jin family and ask them to send someone to deal with it, I'm afraid...... It will be a loss of time. ”

Although this is reasonable, Zhuang Shitong has no intention of squeezing the wounded, not to mention that Xu Jiashu is still a child: "Don't worry about this, rest assured." If you are worried about your mother's funeral, the government will also take care of it. "Anyway, the winter in Chang'an is very cold, and the corpse in Yizhuang is not in the way. The Jin family left a lot of belongings, and the government can buy the coffin and shroud for them first, as long as they are not buried. Jin Juren has a meritorious name and a big family, so it is better to send his family back to his hometown for burial. These things can't all be handed over to Xu Jiashu as a half-grown child, but must always be entrusted to reliable people. It is best for the second room of the Jin family to come forward, if they can't come, after the spring starts tomorrow, the government will find a way.

Xie Wenzai heard something wrong on the side: "Xu Jiashu, don't you want the people from the second room of the Jin family to come?" ”

Zhuang Shi was stunned and hurriedly looked at Xu Jiashu.

Xu Jiashu's face changed, and he gritted his teeth, as if he had made some kind of determination, before he spoke: "I heard the leader of the killer talking to Jin Juren. Jin Juren once said that he was not Jin Juren, but a stand-in found by Jin Juren to lure away the gangsters. But the leader laughed at him for lying, saying that he knew what he looked like and would never mistake anyone. Jin Juren asked again...... Why did he know we were on this path? Obviously, only the people in the second room know. And the chief said...... It was the people in the second room who told them, and they laughed at Jin Juren, holding on to the gold, so that their relatives couldn't stand it, and they would rather betray him than watch him take away the gold, and in the future, they would be in a foreign land, but they can still eat and drink spicy food, and live a rich life......"

Zhuang Shitong was taken aback: "You said that the person in the second room of the Jin family told the killer the whereabouts of Jin Juren?!" ”

Xu Jiashu lowered his eyelids: "I heard them say that, and I don't know if it's true or not...... Those bad people don't know I'm alive, just in case...... The government told the people in the second room that they came to deal with the funeral of the old lady, but they saw me and called the gangsters to kill people and kill them, so what should I do? ”

Zhuang Shitong asked him solemnly: "Are you serious?" Not lying to me? ”

"Seriously!" Xu Jiashu said categorically, "The leader of the killer did say so to Jin Juren!" ”

Seeing the serious expressions on the faces of Zhuang Shitong, Hai Xiya, Xie Wenzai and others, he slowed down his tone again: "I also know that this thing sounds too scary, I am the only one in the family who survived, and without a witness, I can't convict the second room." If they knew I was alive, they wouldn't let me go...... But Master Jin is very good to me, if the person who killed him is allowed to do the funeral for him, I am afraid that he will be so angry that he will come back to life under Jiuquan......"
