Chapter 077: Sudden Good News (1)
Bai Luosheng's luck was indeed very good, he had already left Ji Yinsan's courtyard, and Shangguan Moyun did not embarrass him.
All the way back to the inn.
Ochre Aya had already ordered the meal and stayed at the table, as if waiting for them, as soon as she saw Bai Luoshang and Qiu Lifeng coming from outside the door, she immediately jumped up, and complained with a smile: "You guys are finally back, I'm dying of hunger." ”
Bai Luoshang looked at Ochre Aya flattered, he really didn't expect her to sit here and wait for them to come back and eat together.
The three of them sat around the table.
While eating, Ochre Aya asked Bai Luosheng, "Where did the old demon Dao lead you to in the end?"
Bai Luoshang replied while drinking: "Ji Yinsan's broken courtyard." ”
"Where did you go again?" Ochre Aya was obviously very surprised by this, but it was just a dilapidated old courtyard, why did that old demon Dao lead Bai Luoshang twice?
"Have you ever thought about why that old demon Dao let you go to Ji Yinsan's courtyard?" asked Ochre Aya again.
Bai Luoshang replied without thinking about it: "Because he wants to tell me what kind of knife Shangguan Moyun is the most proud knife in his hand." ”
The facts are already very clear, the old Taoist priest asked them to go to Ji Yinsan's house, not so that they could save Shangguan Moyun's life, let alone let them take Shangguan Moyun's life, but to tell them a fact: The knife that Bai Luoshang had been looking for that was used by Shangguan Moyun to kill people was actually Shangguan Moyun's daughter Shangguan Rui.
If it weren't for what he saw, heard, and tested, Bai Luoshang couldn't believe it anyway, Shangguan Rui was actually the murderer who killed Gu Kongyin, Yi Guxing and Ji Yinsan.
Shangguan Rui's "Feihong Sunset" is very beautiful, it is a kind of sword dance for people to admire, and it is also a kind of murderous swordsmanship. The sword in her hand was a poisonous snake, and this poisonous snake had killed three people. Bai Luosheng was lucky, he didn't become the fourth person to be under that sword.
As soon as he thought of Shangguan Rui drawing his sword against him, Bai Luosheng's mood couldn't help but be low.
Since the first meeting, Shangguan Rui has left a very deep impression on Bai Luosheng, Shangguan Rui always has affectionate eyes, low eyebrows and a shallow smile, and gentle words, even when he picks up the sword, his face is as gentle as water. Bai Luoshang couldn't believe that such a Shangguan Rui would also kill people with his own hands.
When Ochre Aya found that Bai Luoshang was in a low mood, she couldn't help but tilt her head and ask Qiu Lifeng: "What's wrong with him?"
Qiu Lifeng sneered, didn't say anything, and continued to eat quietly and elegantly, with an indifferent face.
Ochre Aya thought for a while, pushed Bai Luoshang with her hand, and asked with a smile: "You said that you have already seen the knife used by Shangguan Moyun, I want to know, what kind of knife is that knife?"
Bai Luosheng's mind was full of Shangguan Rui, and when he heard Ochre Aya ask this, he could only sigh silently: "A knife that can kill Ji Yinsan, of course, is a very powerful knife." ”
Ochre Aya asked, "Do you already know who killed Ji Yinsan?"
Bai Luoshang nodded lightly.
Ochre Aya asked again: "This person is also the person who killed Gu Kongyin and Yi Guxing at Ji Yinsan's house before?"
Bai Luoshang nodded lightly and heavily.
Ochre Aya asked again, "Who is this person?"
Bai Luoshang didn't answer the question, because he didn't want to answer.
Seeing that he didn't want to answer, Ochre Aya didn't ask, she just asked another question: "How did this knife kill Ji Yinsan in the county office?"
Bai Luoshang didn't answer this question, because he didn't know how Shangguan Rui entered the inner courtyard of the county government and killed Ji Yinsan.
The wall of the inner courtyard of the county government is very high, and if it is not a good light work, it will not be able to jump over that wall. Although the inner courtyard of the county government is not heavily guarded, there are many people who patrol back and forth, if Shangguan Rui really entered the county government through the wall, it is impossible to kill Ji Yinsan with her sword in such a short period of time.
Ji Yinsan's skills are not weak, and he obviously knows that Shangguan Rui will also use Hundred Burial Sorrows, so when Shangguan Rui attacks him, it is impossible for Ji Yinsan not to resist at all. If there is resistance, someone in the county government will definitely find out. In fact, judging from the situation after Ji Yinsan's death, he did not resist at all before he was killed, and no one in the entire county government found out.
So, how did Shangguan Rui enter the county government and kill Ji Yinsan?
Bai Luoshang couldn't figure it out.
Ochre Aya looked at Bai Luoshang quietly, and after a long while, she smiled again: "I heard a very interesting thing here today. ”
Bai Luoshang looked at her, only to see her wink at herself, with a strange look on her face, and she couldn't help but be curious: "What's the matter?"
Ochre Aya smiled and said, "It's about the martial arts family and the Shangguan family, I think you should be interested in listening to it." ”
Bai Luoshang really had an interest in listening.
Ochre Aya recounted: "In the past, the martial arts family has also been an official for several generations, and the wealth accumulated is much richer than Shangguan Moyun, the richest man. The Shangguan family became more and more frequent because of the business and the affairs of the martial family, and later the children of the Shangguan family and the children of the martial family got married, and in less than a year after the two families got married, the business of the Shangguan family became bigger and bigger, and the accumulated wealth and power also accumulated rapidly, but the situation of the martial family was completely opposite, and the wealth accumulated over several generations was shrinking day by day. As a result, the wealth gap between the two people is getting bigger and bigger, so after the children of both parties were born, the Shangguan family immediately turned their faces and changed their minds, and resolutely asked the Shangwu family to cancel the marriage contract. ”
Bai Luoshang frowned and said, "However, at that time, the martial family did not agree to the request to cancel the marriage contract?"
Ochre Aya smiled: "That's right. ”
"The Shangguan family insisted on canceling the marriage contract?"
"That's right, because of this incident, there have been a lot of conflicts back and forth between the two families, and even a big fight. It's just that a year later, the samurai family was robbed and the whole family was killed, but the two baby boys of the samurai family disappeared. But not long after the new county official took office, a strange case occurred in Pushan County. ”
Bai Luoshang remembered the story Wu Wei told him, "The headless male corpse case?"
Ochre Aya nodded, "At that time, this male corpse was strapped to two baby boys about one year old. ”
Bai Luoshang pondered: "These two baby boys are the brothers of the martial family, the two children who disappeared after the destruction of the martial family, were later raised in the prison cell of the county government, and under the protection of Ji Yinsan, they were able to escape the pursuit of the enemy. Therefore, the samurai family was not sacked by robbers and ended up with the whole family killed, but someone deliberately arranged it. ”
Ochre Aya blinked and smiled: "Those people said the same thing, guess who is behind the scenes they say?"
Bai Luoshang said coldly: "Apart from Shangguan Moyun, who else can it be?"
Ochre Aya was obviously a little disappointed, "I found out that chatting with someone who is too smart is really boring, can't you pretend to be confused for a while?
Bai Luoshang could only say helplessly: "Then tell me, what else did you hear?"
Ochre Aya shook her head a little depressedly, "There's no more, it's just that everyone speculates that the Shangguan family used some method to take the martial family's property for themselves after marrying the martial family, and then turned around and didn't recognize anyone." However, this is also the talk of those people after dinner, and there is no evidence to prove that the Shangguan family has ever done that kind of thing. Shangguan Moyun's reputation is not very good, but he is too rich, and no one dares to speak even if a rich person has done something. ”
But the martial brothers dared to say it and do it. ”
"So, Shangguan Moyun wants you to get rid of Ji Yinsan and the martial brothers for him, and Wu Wei wants you to kill Shangguan Moyun for him. Ochre Aya held the chopsticks in her mouth and said unhurriedly, "But I'm very strange, why does the eldest brother of the martial arts family still insist on marrying the eldest lady of the Shangguan family?"
Bai Luoshang said strangely: "How do you know that Master Wu still insists on marrying Shangguan Rui?"
Ochre put the chopsticks on the table and asked with a smile, "Don't you know?"
Bai Luoshang smiled bitterly, "Of course I know." ”
Ochre snorted and snorted, "I don't think you know." ”
Bai Luoshang laughed and said, "I don't know?"
Wu Wei was unwilling to cancel the marriage contract and insisted on marrying Shangguan Rui in order to take revenge on Shangguan Moyun. He was already very clear about this matter.
Ochre Aya asked inexplicably: "Have you already been to the county office?"
Bai Luoshang also replied inexplicably: "Before going to Ji Yinsan's house, I had already been to the county office. ”
Ochre Aya asked, "Then why didn't you stay in the county government and the wine?"
Bai Luoshang was stunned, "What kind of wine?"
Ochre Aya blinked, "Of course it's Lord Wu's happy wine, the bride is the eldest lady of the Shangguan family, Shangguan Rui." ”
Bai Luoshang only felt that his head was exploding.
Ochre Aya could see the change in the expression on Bai Luosheng's face clearly, she only thought it was very interesting, so she couldn't help but joke again: "Lord Wu and Miss Shangguan visit the hall the day after tomorrow, don't you want to drink the wedding wine?" I heard that Lord Wu has invited a lot of people to the banquet, and he is going to organize a lively banquet in the mansion, and I heard that he has invited the chef of Yipinju to the past, I guess it will be very lively by then......
Day after tomorrow?
Bai Luoshang couldn't hear Ochre Aya's voice anymore, and his mind was full of other things.
Wu Wei wants to visit the church with Shangguan Rui?
This change was undoubtedly a sunny day for Bai Luosheng, and he really didn't expect such a thing to happen. From the county government to Ji Yinsan's courtyard, from Wu Wei and Wu Wei to Shangguan Rui and Shangguan Moyun, he didn't see the slightest hint of a happy event in anyone beforehand.
"Speaking of which, these two families are really weird. Qiu Lifeng suddenly gloated and said, "Since we are about to become a family, how dare this martial artist let people kidnap their father-in-law?"
Bai Luoshang looked at him.
Qiu Lifeng sneered and continued: "But then again, if Shangguan Moyun really used any method to take the wealth accumulated by the martial family for generations, then it seems that he has to do it now to kill all the martial family brothers. ”
Bai Luoshang looked at Qiu Lifeng helplessly, "This is just a guess, it may not be the case." ”
Although he is reasonable, it sounds a little self-defeating.
Qiu Lifeng sneered: "Then tell me, why does Shangguan Moyun have to kill the martial brothers? Is it really just to cancel the marriage contract between Shangguan Rui and Wu Wei?"
Bai Luoshang was speechless.
