Chapter 296: The Crooked Way of the Dog Thief

Guo Song on the prince's side has already made people secretly watch, and on the premise of never revealing his traces, he will try to collect the movements of the East Palace.

And so the days slowed down.

So Fu Zhen has also adapted to Liang Xuan, who sticks to his side like kraft candy.

When the sun was setting in the west, the heat was not so heavy, she took the bear child to fish on the lakeside, Zhang Cheng and Yang Tong ignored the fish that scared them away, and trotted all the way to the front:

"Young lady! Jiang Lin is back! ”

Hearing this name, Fu Zhen's eyes straightened, and then he threw away the fishing rod and immediately ran out of the door.

Liang Xuan just caught a fat carp, and for a while he didn't know whether to catch the fish or catch up first, and finally threw away the fishing rod and let the little guy catch the fish, but he still chased it!

Jiang Lin and the three of them were in the dust, and they were so haggard that their eye sockets sank after days of hurrying.

After seeing Fu Zhen, he bowed down first, Fu Zhen held them up, first asked people to bring tea and snacks, let them eat and drink enough, and then asked:

"What's the catch?"

Jiang Lin nodded and took out all the things he brought back: "The harvest is not small, but the young lady still needs to listen to her subordinates." ”

"You say!"

Fu Zhen picked up the carved bronze medal.

Before Jiang Lin could speak, she was already surprised when she saw the carvings on this brand......

"The young lady must have recognized it too." Jiang Lin looked at her deeply.

"This one is the same as the carving on my handle!" Fu Zhen raised his head, "Where did this come from?" How did this come about? ”

Jiang Lin took a deep breath: "Young lady, wait for me to come from the details in the future." This brand I got from the young lady who asked me to find a man named Zhou Yi......"

Liang Xuan followed under the gate of the courtyard, and before the guards guarding the door could give way, Yang Tong rushed out of the courtyard:

"Come on! went to deliver a letter to General Liang, and the young lady asked him to come to the house immediately! ”

Liang Xuan saw them so hot, he was very curious, chased them all the way, and disappeared, so he fell back, and the courtyard door here was slammed again!

He hurriedly knocked on the door and shouted to Aunt Wu, this time the door opened, Zhang Cheng and Yang Tong walked out together, and they carried him left and right to Mrs. Pei's courtyard......

Liang Zhi arrived at Pei's house, and Fu Zhen was here just to listen to Jiang Lin talk about the ins and outs. When he saw Liang Zhi, he also put the sign in front of him:

"Do you recognize this?"

After reading it, Liang Zhi immediately recognized it: "The pattern on this is exactly the same as the pattern on the dagger in Baiyu Hutong!" ”

Speaking of this, he was immediately shocked: "Great Moon Wing Palace! Does the Xu family have anything to do with the Wing Palace? ”

At the beginning, Pei Zhan relied on the pattern on the dagger to get the origin of the dagger from Gu Taifu, which came from the Wing Palace, which was destroyed due to the struggle for imperial power in the Great Moon Kingdom!

Now the brand held by Zhou Yi is not exactly the same as the dagger, but it should be there, and everything that should be marked is marked, can it be said that it is not from the same place?

However, Zhou Yi is Xu Yin's person, how can he have the things of the Wing Palace?

Since he has it, will Xu Yin have it?

In other words, does Xu Yin know all this?

"The edges of this bronze medal are polished very brightly, and it looks like it is rubbed a lot. Judging from the small holes hanging on the bottom, this should be a sign used to give orders or verify identity.

This surnamed Zhou strangely appeared in a small town in the northwest back then, and said that he and Xu Yin met by accident, but a few years later, Xu Yin became an official, but he was directly assigned to Tanzhou to take care of the ancestral house for him!

"The surname Xu is so suspicious, since he is so important, then he must be Xu Yin's henchman!

"No matter what the identity of the surname Xu is, first of all, he must know this brand!

"And nine times out of ten, this sign is used for them to contact or send missions between the two places!"

Liang Zhi quickly expressed his conjecture.

Fu Zhen agreed with his every word, but the surge in her chest pushed her to say something appropriate for a while.

The first time she saw this brand, she was stunned in her mind, she would never forget under what circumstances she was killed by Xu Yin, when he asked for the dagger, he killed her!

Before that night, Xu Yin stalked him and asked him for the knife, but Liang Ning insisted on not giving it, and in the end he didn't ask, and directly poisoned him.

If the brand in Zhou Yi's hand is used to direct the people below to do things, it can only show that Zhou Yi and Xu Yin are related to the Wing King Mansion of the Great Moon Kingdom.

Since it is related, that is to say, when Xu Yin asked him for the knife, he already knew what the knife was and what its origin was.

Then he didn't ask later, but decisively killed him, because he knew that Liang Ning would not take it out, so he no longer wasted his efforts, or because he knew that the knife would not actually hurt him a lot?

Xu Yin has so many secrets, Fu Zhen has imagined many possibilities, but he never thought that he was born in Tanzhou, which is about a thousand miles away, and he would have a relationship with a foreign country!

"Didn't the Wing King Mansion be destroyed long before our Great Zhou was founded? Why are they still in our Central Plains? ”

The guards who went to Tanzhou with Jiang Lin and came back raised questions. "Da Yue, the king of the dead country, is not a soft-hearted person, when the Wing Wangfu competed with him for imperial power, after he succeeded, he killed the Wing Mansion for three days and three nights.

"The mother of the prince of the Winged King came to the rescue with soldiers and horses, but they were all blocked from the city gate by his heavy troops."

Fu Zhen, Liang Zhi, and Jiang Lin looked at each other, nodded and said, "Counting the destruction of the Yiwang Mansion or before the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it has been twenty-five years. This matter really needs to be investigated deeply. ”

Speaking of this, she said to Jiang Lin: "By the way, you said that the last person who helped you get out of trouble was the first family member in the Xu Mansion, why would he help you?" ”

"The subordinates couldn't think of a reason, the man didn't say a word to us, and he didn't have any dealings, so naturally, his subordinates would never have seen him.

"When he was in contact with Zhou Yi, he didn't show any flaws, and even Zhou Yi didn't doubt our origins, I believe he would never be able to see that we were from the Protector General's Mansion."

Jiang Lin's eyes were full of doubts, and when they thought back to the scene before leaving, they still felt incredible.

If it hadn't been for the timely appearance of the Xu family's family that night, even if these things were delivered to Fu Zhen, they would have to lose something.

"It's such a coincidence, and it's also burned by fire?"

Fu Zhen muttered something like this.

Jiang Lin said: "Who else has been burned by fire? ”

Fu Zhen took a deep breath: "I just sighed, not necessarily talking about anyone." ”

When she was done, she raised her eyes: "You have worked hard all the way, go back and rest first." Maybe when the general comes back in the evening, he will ask you to come and ask you for questioning. ”

The three of them thanked him, and Liang Zhi immediately went around and sat down next to Fu Zhen: "Auntie, what do you think of this matter?" How could his surname Xu be related to the royal family of the Great Moon Kingdom? ”

Fu Zhending looked ahead, his eyes deep: "I don't know how to answer you, but with this sign I got from the Xu family, some things can make sense." ”

Liang Zhi paused: "For example?" ”

Fu Zhen inhaled: "For example, he clearly said that he was from Tanzhou, but he appeared in the northwest battlefield thousands of miles away from Tanzhou.

For another example, he speaks Tanzhou dialect and seems to be a genuine southerner, but in just three days, he can find an orchid outside the border to be his master and learn to play the flute.

"All of this shows that he has a relationship with foreign races."

Liang Zhi involuntarily nodded in agreement: "That's right, no matter how similar he was in the past, there will still be some flaws." It seems that the new learning is not only related to the Wing Palace, but also has a lot to do with the Wing Palace.

"Otherwise, he is young, how can there be so many killers around him? So many people do things for him?

"It's just that I still don't understand, if he is an important person in the Wing King's Mansion, why does he have a father whose ancestral home is in the south?"

"If they are used to secretly communicate, or if it is the brand of the Wing King's Mansion that they use to give orders, then his background is naturally suspicious."

"But you say he can speak Tanzhou," Liang Zhi said, "If he is not from Tanzhou and does not have a Tanzhou father, how can he speak the local dialect?" The point is, why Tanzhou? ”

This question made Fu Zhen's brows furrow even tighter.

Every question Liang Zhi asks is worth studying.

She has been with Xu Yin for so many years, and Xu Yin speaks the Tanzhou dialect very authentically, which is beyond doubt, and many Tanzhou soldiers in the military camp at that time can corroborate it.

So if he doesn't live in Tanzhou for a long time, there must be a relative who speaks Tanzhou to influence him for a long time, so that he can do it.

Therefore, if Xu Yin is from Dayue, how did the relationship with Tanzhou come about?

"That family is also very strange, Jiang Lin said that the people Xu Yin sent Zhou Yi to Tanzhou are all people they trust, since they are trusted people, how can they jump out to rescue Jiang Lin and them?

"They're back too early, they should keep digging up!"

Fu Zhen turned his head and glanced at him: "They still have people there." ”

"That's pretty much it!"

Liang Zhi was a little geared up.

Fu Zhen's mind flew away: "I thought that the Xu family's ancestral house in Tanzhou was just vacant, but I didn't expect it to be of such a great use in secret."

"It seems that Xu Yin's secret actions have been quite big over the years, what is his purpose in doing this?"

It's not as simple as being a high-ranking official.

"He has done so many actions, and King Rong's Mansion doesn't know anything about it?" Liang Zhi wondered again: "Could King Rong's Mansion be his accomplice?" ”

Fu Zhen doesn't think so.

Because King Rong will not be willing to be Xu Yin's deputy, and so far, Xu Yin has not won King Rong.

But after thinking about it, she still said: "The affairs of the King of Yu's Mansion, Yu Yu knows best. You call him over and ask. ”

Liang Zhi immediately stood up when he heard this: "He is looking for you!" I knew you wanted to see him, so I brought him here just now! ”

Fu Zhen cleaned up the things on the table: "What did he do when he saw me?" ”

"He said that you are his benefactor, and now that he is healed, he will come to see you, and he will come to thank you."

Fu Zhen smiled when he heard this: "You go and pick him up!" Just be careful, don't let others see it. ”

As she spoke, she folded up the account books and documents that Jiang Lin had brought back.

These are normal expense records and business dealings, which are not of much use, go back and show Pei Zhan how to deal with them.

But halfway through her folding, a document with a familiar mark jumped into her eyes-

"Is it the seal of the Ning family's firm?"

Liang Zhi, who had just ordered people to go down, happened to see it as soon as he turned around, and now he recognized the Ning family as a second home at a glance!

Fu Zhen quickly pulled out this document, and her face changed at this glance: "The loading list of the Ning family's merchant ship?" How could he have this list?? ”

After finishing speaking, his face changed again: "...... He Qunying?! ”

She stood up sharply: "He Qunying wants to let two boats, is he going to load things for Xu Yin?!" ”

He Qunying has already been wooed by Xu Yin, and the only thing that the Xu family and the Ning family have in the merchant ship are the two boats that He Qunying borrowed!

Isn't that already obvious?

The real employer of those two boats turned out to be Xu Yin, a dog thief!

"Where's the ship?!"

"It's been almost twenty days since I set off, and I'm afraid I'm already in Tongzhou,—— so I'm afraid I'll take someone to see if the surname Xu has been out of the city in the past two days?! If you haven't left the city yet, you'll be staring him to death, and when the ship docks, he'll definitely go to the docks! We must find a way to get ahead of him and clean these two boats from start to tail! ”

Xu Yin found the Ning family to ask for a boat, and what he wanted to load would definitely not be an ordinary thing, how could he not start it immediately halfway?

Liang Zhi also knew that the situation was important, so he rushed out immediately!

Fu Zhen took the paperwork in his hand and looked at it again and again, and couldn't help but grit his teeth and punch the table.

A dog thief surnamed Xu!

If you don't do good things, these unsightly deeds are weird!

The Ning family ship has the Great General's Mansion to rely on, even if they require the boatmen to abide by the law more than before, the north-south passage is bound to be easier than ordinary ships, and the purpose he wants to achieve is to borrow the Ning family's merchant ship is the best!

In this way, He Qunying used that set of words to lobby Pei Zhan, and it was also premeditated!

Regarding the cause of Old Man Ning's death, I am afraid that He Qunying, the envoy surnamed Xu, said so, behind Old Man Ning's death, it is related to the same blood case in Baiyuhu, as long as it is mentioned that the cause of Old Man Ning's death is different, how can Pei Zhan be indifferent?

Only the surname Xu has such a city!

"Fifth aunt! ……”

A huge meatball flew in from outside the door and threw itself into Fu Zhen's arms: "Why don't you let me in?" Am I not your scout? ”

Fu Zhen quickly put away the paperwork and said, "Of course it's my scout." Now, it's time for you to behave! Are you familiar with Xu Yin's son? ”

"Brother Lian?" Liang Xuan raised his head, "Cooked, why aren't you cooked!" In the past, that Xu Shilang also took him to the Liang family to play! Since his mother was locked up, his father doesn't care about him now! ”
