Chapter 43: Interrogation
Xiao Xinrong looked at the calm He Jiang and asked straightforwardly, "Have you ever helped people in the army transport food recently?"
After hearing this, He Jiang's heart sank, some time ago, the military rebellion had already been heard, the court sent people down for a turn, and nothing was found out and the people left, these days I heard that the emperor sent his second son Prince Alcohol to investigate, it is rumored that Prince Alcohol kills people on the battlefield, drinks people's blood and chews human flesh fiercely and cruelly, the son in front of him is ......
Thinking of this, He Jiang shuddered, although he had walked in the rivers and lakes all the year round and had participated in countless sect battles, the name of Prince Alcohol still made him feel frightened, and he struggled to kneel up and said, "Caomin He Jiang greets the prince." ”
Xiao Xinrong was not surprised that He Jiang knew his identity, and then said: "Since you already know my identity, answer truthfully." ”
He Jiang knelt down honestly and said, "Back to the prince's words, the grass people haven't delivered a grain of grain for more than a year. ”
Xiao Xinrong took a few steps back and forth, but did not speak, He Jiang quickly added: "What the grass people said is true, if there is half a lie, I am willing to give the head!"
Xiao Xinrong stopped and walked in front of He Jiang: "Remember what you said today, if he finds out that the matter is related to you in the future, you know what the consequences will be!"
Then he said: "Don't spread the word about this matter tonight, we will take care of the residence of your wife and little son for the time being, and we will evacuate after the case is over." After saying that, he walked straight out.
He Jiang vigorously held his hands tied by ropes behind his body and shouted, "I'm ......"
Bang, Zhao Wei threw a long knife in front of him, and chased after his master without looking back.
He Jiang fumbled to cut the rope, and untied the rope on his feet, remembering what the man said before leaving, he sighed helplessly, hoping to release his mother-in-law and child as soon as possible.
Xiao Xinrong tossed for a long time and found nothing, so the two of them continued to monitor Wang Mao and that Lin Shoubei: "This surveillance will deliberately leak some horses." ”
Chen Hu said: "Lord Wang, are you going to have a scare snake?"
Xiao Xinrong snorted: "Since they shrank and don't show up, then force them out." ”
Wang Mao always felt that something was wrong in the past few days, the guard named Chen Hu next to the prince had appeared on his roof three times at different times. I also heard the guard at the door say that a few fresh faces looked sneakily at the house, and they were shocked, and hurriedly called the staff to discuss.
Everyone discussed for a long time and couldn't come up with a reason, to say that the prince suspected that the rebellion was related to him, and he couldn't send people to spy on him so blatantly, if he didn't suspect it, the prince's move would be puzzling.
Thinking about it and thinking about it, one of Wang Wu's staff members comforted: "Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, just wait for the following." Wang Mao felt that there was only that.
Wang Wu also felt that this matter was strange, because there was a ghost in his heart, the more he felt that he was not coming for himself, so he sent someone to leave a message, and went to Baihualou in the evening of the joint.
Baihualou's mother saw that it was Wang Wu, a frequent customer, and she didn't say anything about it, so she directly sent someone to lead him to a good Yanhong room.
Wang Wu had something in her heart, and Ren Yanhong couldn't raise any interest in it, so she waved her hand to let her step down.
Not long after the door creaked, a figure in black clothes flashed in, Wang Wu saw it, quickly stood up, opened the door again, and looked out for a while before quickly closing the door.
"Now at this critical juncture, why are you in such a hurry to come to me?" The people in the room raised their heads, it was the general surnamed Chen who Xiao Xinrong and the others did not suspect, Chen Mingxuan!
Wang Wu hurriedly recounted what had happened in the prefect's courtyard in the past few days, and asked, "Is this a suspicion of the prefect?" Or is it a suspicion of a few of us?"
Chen Mingxuan snorted coldly: "If you suspect Wang Mao, wouldn't it be better, what are you afraid of!"
comforted again: "No matter how powerful Xiao Xinrong's rumors are, I don't think it's just like that, don't be suspicious." ”
Wang Wu's hand made a cutting motion and asked, "Then do we want to do this to the people who are watching?" Then blame the prefect and let them eat the dog to ......"
Chen Mingxuan frowned, lowered his voice and scolded: "Idiot! The most important thing now is to do nothing, when Xiao Xinrong can't find out anything, they will leave, you don't want to make trouble!"
Wang Wu was scolded for being bloody, and he frowned a little unconvinced, and did not speak.
After Chen Mingxuan finished speaking, regardless of whether Wang Wu listened to it or not, he was about to get up and leave, and before leaving, he asked uneasily: "You go back quickly, don't contact me during this time." After saying that, he opened the door and strode away.
Wang Wu also had no intention of staying, and walked out of Baihualou leisurely. Before leaving the building, Wang Wu habitually glanced at both sides, and when he didn't pay attention to it, he saw a man in a cyan coat retracting his gaze when he looked over, and at the same time slipped into an alley next to him.
Wang Wu was shocked in his heart, didn't this person come to spy on him? Did anyone see today's meeting? All kinds of thoughts rushed to his mind for a while.
Walking on the street was already dark, Wang Wu's mind was confused for a while, and the more he walked, the more he felt that something was wrong, and there seemed to be someone following him!
Wang Wu stopped, turned back suddenly, and found a long figure behind him in the moonlight.
Wang Wu stood there motionless in fright, and the figure behind him did not make any sound, and when he was stalemate, a voice came from afar: The weather is dry, be careful of the candle flame!
A watchman walked over from afar, Wang Wu quietly glanced back, there was nothing behind him, then he let out a long breath, pulled the sweaty clothes on his back, and walked quickly towards the mansion.
On the morning of the second day, Chen Mingxuan heard the soldiers guarding the camp calling him, and there was a child at the gate of the camp who wanted to send him a letter by name......
Chen Mingxuan was shocked and angry in his heart, he didn't expect Xiao Xinrong to have some ability, and he stretched out his hand to Wang Wu so quickly.
He was also angry that Wang Wu was so timid and afraid, he shouldn't have taken a fancy to the grain merchants in his hands and cooperated with him in the first place. But it's too late to say anything now, Wang Wu has already been exposed, and if he is caught, he won't be able to run away by then, so he has to think about countermeasures quickly.
