Chapter 190: Strange and Strange Things
Wu Jiang pretended to be scared when he heard this, and arched his hand at Han Shiyan, "Uncle Han, please raise your noble hand, if I am smoked, who will go to the Northern Dynasty with you!" ”
Han Shiyan shook his head speechlessly, he touched it in his arms, and found a map, spread it out on his lap.
"Gu Shiwei, come and see, this place is my Dayong Dynasty. This place is Bianjing, and we went all the way to the north, and after crossing the border, we were in the Northern Dynasty. The soldiers and horses of the Northern Dynasty are strong, but they are strong enemies. ”
"The Dayong Dynasty is now fighting a fierce war with the Xia Kingdom in the west, and the despicable Northern Dynasty took the opportunity to send an envoy Liu Fu to cut the land, otherwise it will let the Dayong fight on two fronts."
"The official family hesitates to do things, and whenever there is a major matter, they usually ask Zai Fu to discuss it first, and then fight against each other in the early dynasty. It was not until yesterday that the case of fraud in the imperial examination was discovered, and the official family suddenly released a rumor that they wanted to send someone to make Liao ......"
"I think what you said earlier is not wrong, our investigation of the case is already very close to the truth, and now that the curtain of the Gu family has been torn off, if we are given another ten days and half a month of hard work, we will definitely go straight to Huanglong."
When Han Shiyan said this, he glanced at Gu Shiwei, and his eyes were full of respect.
Last night, when he was reorganizing the case at home, he suddenly found out that he and Gu Shiwei had only only met in the spring, and now that the spring has not passed, they have already done something together that others have not been able to do for three or five years!
He used to feel that this life was very short, and there were many things he wanted to do but it was too late.
But now that we are very little together, there seem to be endless possibilities in this life.
Han Shiyan suppressed the surging in his heart, remembering the words of Changguan yesterday that were like earth-shattering thunder, and suddenly became a little uncomfortable.
He shook his head and scratched his finger on the map, "We will go all the way north from Bianjing, pass through Xingzhou to enter Zhending Mansion, and enter the Northern Dynasty at the border pass." Have you seen Xingzhou? ”
Han Shiyan's fingers tapped on Xing Zhou's head.
Gu Shiwei's eyes moved, and he immediately understood Han Shiyan's intentions, "Although we have left Bianjing City, we may not be able to continue to investigate the case, and the batch of ordnance in the case was originally sent to the border by the same route as us." Xingzhou is the key place. ”
She thought, silently adding in her heart.
It's not just a case of breaking weapons, she just wants to find out the cause of Ma Hongying's death, what happened to her and Wu Jiang in that war, why it led to the destruction of the whole army, and why Wu Jiang has avoided it now.
Because she always suspected that the cotton brocade girl who could hide the body under the carriage in the temple and prevent the horse from making any movements was likely to be the Ma family who was good at beast control.
"That's right!" Han Shiyan took Gu Shiwei's words, and he dragged out a wooden box from under the base of the carriage and pushed it between the three of them.
"This is a transcription of the file on the case of breaking weapons and the tax and silver case of that year......" He said, thinking that Wu Jiang didn't know much about these two cases, and explained, "You can look at the case of breaking weapons and you will know why Chen Shenji had to kill Li Zhenxian." ”
"In the case of breaking weapons, the officials of Li Zhenxian's court who were responsible for collecting and inspecting this batch of weapons, the swords made by Izumo Sword Village, and the crossbow machine of the Qianji Chen clan were all transported to the border after Li Zhenxian's hands."
Wu Jiang glanced at the thick stack of dossiers, grinned bitterly, and stretched out his hand to his nose.
"Brother Shi Yan, Gu relatives, your four eyes are bright, do you look at my old Wu like the kind of person who ponders the dossier? Look at my name, Wujiang Wujiang Military General, that has been set since I was born, I am a brainless but capable fighter! ”
Gu Shiwei repeated with him, that Wu Jiang's name really fits the sound of a military general.
Han Shiyan glanced at Wu Jiang, "If you want to use your brain, you just need to think about these crooked ways." ”
He said, too lazy to pay attention to Wu Jiang, and continued to talk about the broken weapons case, "When the ordnance is handed over to Li Zhenxian, it must be genuine. Far different from the Tiangao Emperor in the case of broken weapons, this batch of ordnance set off from Bianjing to Beiguan. ”
"And Qianji Chen has been building crossbow machines for the imperial court all the year round, and they are very familiar with the process and keep an eye on it. Li Zhenxian accepted it in front of everyone, sealed it and handed it over directly to Cao La, the escort officer who escorted the ordnance. ”
"Li Zhenxian shirked his responsibility and killed the Qianji Chen family, and the case was originally going to end like this, but Gu Yudai pursued it strongly, and finally found Xingzhou Tong Cao La."
Hearing Han Shiyan mention his father, Gu Shiwei sat up slightly straighter.
She was young at the time, and her father never reported good news or bad news in front of her, and she didn't know the specific details of the weapon case at first, but later in order to find out the truth, she went to investigate the details. It's just that she couldn't cross the clear road at that time, and there was no way to come to Bianjing to see the sealed file.
Han Shiyan saw that he had already said this, so he simply said the general content of the dossier.
The file did not mention Gu Yudai's name, and there was no mention of his role in this case. What we can see is Cao La's confession. According to the confessions of him and the other soldiers who were escorted at the time, a strange thing happened when they arrived in Xingzhou. ”
Hearing the word strange thing, Gu Shiwei and Wu Jiang's eyes instantly widened, and the two looked at Han Shiyan tacitly, with a light in their eyes.
Han Shiyan looked, one head and two big.
He resisted the urge to flick at the two big heads one by one, and he didn't sell it: "When they traveled to Xingzhou, they came to a place called Songmaoling, which was not very high, so there was no detour. ”
"When I got to the ridge, I came across a tea shed. There was a girl who sold tea in the tea shed, and she was very beautiful. ”
At that time, Cao La's adjutant was named Chu Ying, and Chu Ying persuaded Cao La, saying that there were beautiful girls living alone in this mountain and wild land, and I was afraid that it would be deceitful. But Cao La was fascinated by beauty, did not listen to the advice to rest in the tea shed, and drank the tea there, but Chu Ying was cautious and did not enter. ”
According to Chu Ying's confession, after they took it, they all became delirious, some cried and some laughed very crazy. At that time, the scene was very weird, and it looked like it had fallen into an evil spirit. ”
Chu Ying wanted to find the girl who sold tea, but the girl disappeared, and a thick fog suddenly appeared on the pine hair collar, and all around was suddenly full of Yaque. Chu Ying thought that they had bumped into the evil sect, so he took the black dog's blood from the horse and sprayed Cao La's face, but it didn't work. ”
When Han Shiyan said this, he was interrupted by Wu Jiang and Gu Shiwei, "Black dog blood? ”
Who the hell is going out on an errand and carrying black dog blood with him!
Gu was speechless and thought, is there any normal person in this Dayong Dynasty!
"Why didn't he bring the black donkey's hooves, and he could throw it directly in the face of the tea girl!"
Han Shiyan hesitated for a moment, and said with some indescribability, "He really brought it!" Also threw away! Not only that, but he also danced around that group of people in a circle! ”
There was silence in the carriage for a moment, and then Wu Jiang's earth-shattering laughter rang out.
Han Shiyan glared at him angrily, and Wu Jiang remembered that they were still in the mission, and the useless baggage was stuffed in, so he immediately covered his mouth.
"And then? If Chu Ying is sober, they can't drop the ordnance bag, right? Gu Shiwei calmed down and asked. (End of chapter)
