Chapter Twenty-Three: Cheng Qinghe's "Patient"
Duan Qianqiu was equipped with a horizontal knife, and after patrolling around Wei Dezhao's mansion, he found that some places were guarded by Wei Dezhao's own personal soldiers, and they were not allowed to enter, which may be places that Wei Dezhao valued very much.
At this time, he saw two people coming from the side door on the south side of the mansion, led by Cheng Qinghe, who was stationed in the mansion in Wei Dezhao's mansion, and the other person covered his face with a cloth, looking very painful.
Seeing this, Duan Qianqiu asked, "Doctor Cheng, who is this person next to you, why are you hiding your face?"
Cheng Qinghe has a clear face, gray hair, and has been a resident in Wei Mansion for a long time, and everyone in Wei Mansion knows that his medical skills are exquisite, he is plain, he has an excellent temperament on weekdays, and he is slow and methodical. But now it is in a hurry, he heard this, so he said to Duan Qianqiu: "This person is my distant relative, who was stung by a poisonous bee, and now his life is in danger, I want to treat him, please let this general let go." ”
Duan Qianqiu was unmoved and said, "Please take away his face towel and let me take a look." ”
Cheng Qinghe snorted coldly and took away the patient's face towel, only to see that the visitor's face was swollen, his lips were blue and purple, and his face was deformed. Cheng Qinghe was still carrying a medicine box in his hand, and Duan Qianqiu was about to ask him to open the medicine box for examination, when the patient suddenly vomited, and a large stream of fishy things squirted out, almost spraying Duan Qianqiu.
When Duan Qianqiu couldn't avoid it, Cheng Qinghe said angrily: "This is my medicine box. If you don't apply the medicine, it's too late, will the general still have to be embarrassed by this poor man?"
Cheng Qinghe's status in the mansion is quite high, and Duan Qianqiu can't find any special reason to check his medicine box, so he can only silently get out of the way, he just thinks that this patient's body and temperament are very similar to a person he has seen, but he can't remember it for a while.
Duan Qianqiu walked to the south gate of the mansion and asked about the soldiers guarding the door, and the soldiers reported: "Everything is normal, and there are not many people." It's just that just now, a person who claimed to be a distant relative of Dr. Cheng came to Dr. Cheng with a suitcase. ”
"Didn't Dr. Cheng bring it from the house?"
"That guy brought it!"
Duan Qianqiu suddenly remembered who that person was, it was Wang Bingwang, the steward of the Shen Mansion who assisted him in killing Shen Weijing in Guangling Mansion that night, although his face had become very powerful, his outline was still faintly recognizable, and his body was even more easily recognizable.
"I obviously killed the person, why is he the one who is wanted, why did he come here?" Duan Qianqiu thought to himself.
On the wanted warrant, the fact that Wang Bingwang cut off his head and fled was not written, so Duan Qianqiu didn't know that Shen Weijing was cut off after his death.
He decided to take a look at why Cheng Qinghe would shield Wang Bingwang in the Wei Mansion, it was reasonable that he didn't want to get involved in this matter anymore, but now that he was in the middle of the situation, he couldn't help but influence the development of things.
He knew Cheng Qinghe's residence in Wei's mansion, but when he came to Cheng Qinghe's apartment, it was dark and blind, and there was no sound. Duan Qianqiu saw that the room was locked, he used a knife to pick open the latch of the window, turned into the room, he touched the wick of the oil lamp, it was cold and hard, the room was very clean and tidy, it can be seen that no one came in for a while. Cheng Qinghe's medicine shop is outside the apartment, there are all kinds of medicinal materials in it, according to common sense, if Wang Bingwang is really injured, then he should also take medicine here for treatment, now that the two of them are gone, where will they hide?
Duan Qianqiu had inspected the environment in the Wei Mansion before the guards were deployed, and with his memory, he knew everything very well.
He knew that there was a secluded place in the backyard of the old house of the Wei Mansion, which was originally used to confine the house slaves who had violated the rules of the house, but later the Wei Mansion was expanded, and even the confinement center was moved to the new house.
"Could it be hidden there?" Duan Qianqiu's heart moved, so he jumped out of the window, closed the window with his hand, jumped onto the roof like light smoke, and came to the backyard of the old mansion like a spirit fox.
Duan Qianqiu calmed down, the spiritual platform was instantly clear, and he felt the breath of someone in the back garden, he continued to sneak outside the confinement room, listened quietly, and sure enough, he heard a soft voice: "You take this pill, and the swelling on your face will disappear after a while." ”
Duan Qianqiu looked in from the crack in the door, and saw a candle lit in the house, the fire was faint, only illuminating a small part of the corner of the house, and the light could not be seen from the outside of the house, and in the bright light, the person who spoke was Cheng Qinghe.
Wang Bingwang was smearing ointment on his face, and at this time the swelling on his face had disappeared by more than half, and he took the pill handed over by Cheng Qinghe again, and then said: "Brother Cheng's medicine is really effective, before entering the mansion, I wiped the medicine, and my face immediately swollen, if it weren't for this medicine, I might still be stopped by the guards in the mansion, and I wouldn't be able to enter the mansion! Brother Cheng, how is the affairs in the mansion done? And why is there suddenly so many soldiers of the imperial court in the mansion? It almost broke the big thing!"
After Wu Qixiong's family was poisoned, Wei Dezhao was afraid of death, and begged from his brother to protect him. Wei Dezhao has a secret room, he is the only one who can go in on weekdays, just behind the bookshelf in his study, he is not strict with me, I also accidentally glimpsed it, he got the brocade box that day and came in from outside the house, and went directly to the secret room, and there was nothing left in his hand after he came out. The contents of the brocade box should be inside the secret room. ”
Wang Bingwang nodded solemnly and said, "Is there a way to open the secret room?"
"No! Wei Dezhao should have used the key to open the secret room, and I couldn't get it in a hurry. ”
"Then it doesn't matter, as long as we lead people to the secret room of his study and break the bookshelf, the door of the secret room will naturally be exposed, and the matter of breaking the door will be handled by Qin Shiyao's people. Anyway, Wei Dezhao must be charged with killing important ministers of the imperial court. When Wang Bingwang said this, his expression was resolute, as if he was going to die.
"Will Qin Shiyao follow?" Cheng Qinghe asked suddenly.
"Yes! We've been on the way to the speed of the boat, and they're just in time to catch up. The sect leader has no last resort, the arrangement is always seamless, we just need to act according to the plan. Wang Bingwang's chubby face showed a pious and fanatical look, and then said: "There is no way in the sky, my generation should hold the sword and ask the sky!"
"The sky is dead, the demons are in charge, holding the sword to ask the sky, and sweeping the world. Cheng Qinghe also looked focused, and his eyes were blazing.
Duan Qianqiu really wanted to break into the door, expose them, and then ask them about the whole thing, but after thinking about it, in what capacity did he ask? The killer who killed Shen Weijing, or the identity of the current Wei Mansion's bodyguard?
It was as if the two were doing something extremely secretive. Why did they put the charge of killing Shen Weijing on Wei Dezhao's head? Who is the sect leader in their mouths?
When he was thinking about whether to go in and expose the two people, the front yard suddenly burst into flames, and in the shouts of killing, it seemed that countless people rushed into the Wei Mansion.
