Chapter 85: It's just a chess piece

The group left and returned to the official road, it was already evening, and under the sunset, there was smoke rising from the village in the distance, which looked peaceful.

Ying Wuxin walked on the official road, thinking about the conversation between Wang Zhong and Ying Wei, with the help of listening to the wind, he already knew how Wang Zhong found out the secrets of the Wang family's secret generals.

This method is indeed feasible, Wang Zhong can do things that the shadow guards can't do, and he is indeed uniquely smart, but this clever method, in Ying Wuxin's opinion, is obviously unreasonable.

"Brother Wuxin, what are you thinking?" asked Li Zhengdao.

"Do you remember what happened to Shijiazhuang?"

Li Zhengdao was stunned for a moment, and his expression became more solemn, "Are you talking about Shi Xinwen killing Lele?"

Ying Wuxin nodded, "That's right, at that time, I was careless, and almost made a big mistake, and let a rural honest person like Shi Xinwen be deceived once, and I deeply realized that there are people outside the master, and there is a heaven outside the sky, some people may not be as good as us, not as good as us, but they also have their own wisdom and wisdom." ”

"But didn't you succeed in stopping Sincwen in the end?"

"It was to stop him from killing, but he also committed suicide before I arrived, and I didn't even have time to ask how he killed Lele. ”

"Manpower is sometimes exhausted, we can't do anything perfectly, Wuxin brothers don't have to worry about this, you have done a good job, if you blame yourself, won't we all be able to live." Li Zhengdao joked with a smile.

Ying Wuxin shook his head, "I don't blame myself, I just use this thing to remind myself from time to time, some things may not be as simple as they seem on the surface, such as Liu Gencheng of Sanliuzhuang, on the surface he is fascinated by the ghost of a pig, but in fact, it is Qianzi who is secretly controlling everything, and I didn't realize it for the first time." ”

"Then you mean, Wang Zhong's matter, and the secret?"

As soon as these words came out, Sun Xiaoman and Bai Miaozhen, who were idly watching the scenery along the road, also pricked up their ears curiously and looked over.

"There's just one question that I don't understand.;"

"Tell me about it. Li Zhengdao immediately came to the spirit.

"The former county guard and many officials have intersections, judging from the fact that the shadow guard has been chasing Wang Zhong for a list, there should be no fake, they must have also found out the relevant news, but there is no definite evidence, so they pestered Wang Zhong. Since the former county guard and many officials have intersections, why did Wang Zhong only find out the object of a secret meeting?"

Ying Wuxin continued: "Since Wang Zhong did not find out, it shows that when the former county guard was secretly meeting with other officials, the time was irregular, so that Wang Zhong could not grasp it, then why did he have a regular time when he secretly met with military generals, so that he could master it? You must know that the culpability of civil and military officials' private meetings is much more than that of civil officials, why is the most dangerous thing done so sloppily?"

Sun Xiaoman thought for a while and said: "Perhaps, because the military camp outside the city is far away, they must agree on regular days to see each other, once they don't see each other, or irregularly, it can be hinted that something is wrong." ”

Li Zhengdao and Bai Miaozhen nodded at the same time, "There is indeed such a possibility." ”

"There is such a possibility, but when they have a secret meeting, they can agree on the next date, so that they can do what you say, and at the same time prevent outsiders from discovering the pattern. ”

All three of them were lost in thought and couldn't come out for a long time.

After a long while, Li Zhengdao spoke: "What do you think of Brother Wuxin?"

Ying Wuxin said: "I just have a guess now, and I have to go back to Taoxi to ask Li Shuibo." ”

"Then let's speed it up. ”

"Good. ”

A group of people flew up and walked quickly on the official road, like a big bird with wings, and the strong wind was howling.

The sun set, the sky darkened, and it was not yet dark, and in this dim and unknown situation, everyone saw Wang Zhong's house near the official road in the distance.

"There was a carriage parked there, and it seemed to be the one that took Li Shuibo back. Li Zhengdao said with a strange gaze.

"Let's take a look. Ying unintentionally greeted and sped up.

When he got closer, it was really the young man who was driving the car, who was feeding the horses at Wang Zhong's house and combing the manes of the horses, and in the courtyard, there was an old man with a fat figure, gray hair, and a folding fan in his hand, it was Li Shui.

"Old Li, didn't you go back to Taoxi?" everyone stepped forward and greeted each other.

"You're all back, Miss?" asked Li Shui anxiously.

Li Zhengdao sighed softly, took Li Shui into the hall, and after each sat down, he told Wang Zhong and Wang Lanzhu about it.

"Wang Zhong, this dog thing, I knew that he was so wolf-hearted, I would have killed him, and now I have killed the old man's family, and I have also harmed the young lady, what a bastard......" Li Shuiqi's face turned red and scolded.

After a while, Li Shui was out of breath and couldn't scold anymore, so he stopped to rest.

Bai Miaozhen had already boiled the tea and poured a cup for everyone, Li Zhengdao comforted Li Shui and said, "Old Li, we still have some questions I want to ask you?"

"Don't dare to be, you find out the real culprit for the Wang family, let the young lady get the snow of grievances, for the old man, it is a great kindness, what do you have in the future, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not be ambiguous. Li Shui got up and bowed solemnly.

Ying Wuxin hurriedly helped him and said with a smile: "It's just some questions." ”

"At the request of Daoxia. ”

"Have you ever paid direct or indirect attention to Wang Zhong's affairs, or the carriage, the descendants of the horses?"

Li Shui was stunned, this should be Shaoxia's question very strange. But he still honestly recalled, and finally said: "When you say this, I remember, the lord once asked, who has good skills in driving the car at home, I said Wang Zhong at that time, and then the lord said that he wanted to see Wang Zhong, I went to look for it, Wang Zhong was not in the house, he went out, and then Wang Zhong came back, and the master didn't say that he wanted to see him, and this matter passed." ”

Ying Wuxin nodded slightly, "After Your Majesty ascended the throne, what is your attitude towards the former county guard and the military generals of the arson camp?"

"They can be called the right-hand men of the second prince outside the royal capital, after His Majesty ascended the throne, he has been looking for trouble with the two of them, which is known in the entire court, and even most people in the Jin Kingdom, His Majesty is going to use them to deter the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, but unfortunately this matter has been delayed until a few years after His Majesty ascended the throne, and it is said that His Majesty also wants to use the two of them as an excuse to purge more officials who have been loyal to the second prince, but in the end it is over. ”

"Understood. Ying nodded unintentionally, got up and walked outside.

Li Zhengdao instructed the two junior sisters to take care of Li Shui, and he also went out.

"Are you sure?"

"It's confirmed, the former county guard knows that he and the generals have been targeted by His Majesty, and they can't escape, so in the end, a large number of officials and friends will be punished, so it is better to die with the generals himself, so that the court of the entire Jin Kingdom will suffer the least loss, and Wang Zhong will become the best chess piece to betray the Wang family. Thinking that Wang Zhong likes Wang Lanzhu and goes out to find out the whereabouts of the carriage, Master Wang knows it clearly. ”

Ying Wuxin said: "That's why Master Wang deliberately arranged the date of the secret meeting with the generals separately and regularly, so that Wang Zhong could find out the informant, and with Wang Zhong's liking for Wang Lanzhu, he would definitely secretly do some shelter, so that Master Wang could bring a family of people who were going to die sooner or later to die, and his daughter could at least survive." ”

"Then Wang Zhong, wasn't he wronged?" Li Zhengdao was stunned.

"No, he's just a chess piece—" Ying Wuxin looked up at the deep sky at night, looked at the stars and muttered, "We are just a chess piece of fate." ”
