The door of the Wei Mansion was open, and Wei Sheng's face was gloomy, sitting in the hall, and Hua Ping was kneeling next to him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info his shoulder bone was broken, and the pain in his heart made him tremble slightly. But he gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound.

Wei Sheng suddenly sneered: "I didn't expect you to be quite tough." It's just that you saved that woman desperately, I don't know if she will be as affectionate as you!"

Hua Ping sneered twice, his voice trembled slightly, but it was full of mockery, and said, "Wei Sheng, do you think your secret can still be hidden?"

Wei Sheng knew what he meant, but he didn't pay attention to it, and said: "I want to see what else you are capable of! If you want to go against me, you don't weigh it, you have a few catties and a few taels!"

Hua Ping suddenly showed an unfathomable smile, and when Wei Sheng saw it, he couldn't help but feel a sudden shock in his heart, and he was a little hairy. He became more and more agitated, and looked out from time to time.

Suddenly, a few people came in at the gate, and Wei Sheng stood up suddenly, but it was not the person he was waiting for who came in. The first person was Qiu Gongren, then followed by Su Zhuo, and the other person was dressed in tatters, like a beggar.

When Hua Ping saw Su Zhuo, a glimmer of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and his heart was much more settled. Wei Sheng was a little displeased, and said in a deep voice: "Governor Qiu, why are you here?!"

Qiu Gongren actually didn't want to come here at all, he turned his head to look at Su Zhuo, and his face was helpless. Su Zhuo stepped forward and said, "General Wei, I came with Governor Qiu." ”

Wei Sheng couldn't figure out what this little catcher was thinking, so he let out an "oh" and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Su Zhuo smiled and said, "Didn't General Wei make an agreement with the female snitch to let her bring something to save people tonight? We also want to see what she stole from her." ”

Wei Sheng sneered and said, "It doesn't seem to be your business!"

Su Zhuo was not angry, and still smiled: "General Wei, don't be angry, we are just curious for a while, and we don't mean anything else." It's still early, and I don't think the thief will come so early. Why don't we listen to a story?"

Wei Sheng didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, his face was gloomy, and he didn't say a word. Su Zhuo continued: "This person must be General Wei no longer known. So saying, he brought the ragged man to the front.

He was Zhuang Li, Wei Sheng naturally didn't recognize it, and he was even more puzzled in his heart. Su Zhuo said: "Zhuang Li, let's talk about the situation that day again!"

Zhuang Li was a little timid and hesitant, and glanced at Su Zhuo. Su Zhuo's firm eyes also seemed to bring him courage. Zhuang Li said loudly: "My name is Zhuang Li, and I am a river worker on the embankment of the Yellow River, specializing in building embankments......

When he said this, Wei Sheng's face changed, he glanced at Qiu Gongren coldly, and said, "Lord Qiu, what do you mean by this?"

Qiu Gongren was also a little confused, and looked at Su Zhuo blankly. Su Zhuo motioned for Zhuang Li to continue. Zhuang Li continued: "Just ten days ago, Cao Liyi, a member of the Ministry of Works, suddenly went to inspect the river embankment. And one of our team, there was an old river worker who said that he found a problem in the embankment and reported it to Cao Liyi. Who knew that we were assassinated that night!"

Speaking of this, Qiu Gongren was obviously taken aback. But Wei Sheng picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, no one could see what he was thinking.

Su Zhuo suddenly said: "Zhuang Li is just a coolie, and the story is dull and boring, so let me tell it." There is a gang in the rivers and lakes called the Four Seas Alliance, which is made up of thieves. There is a little girl named Yan'er in the gang, and on the night when Zhuang Li and the others were killed, Yan'er happened to be in Licheng. She inadvertently rescued Zhuang Li, and learned about him, so she sneaked into Cao Liyi's house and stole a letter written by Cao Liyi to someone. ”

As he spoke, he took out the letter he had taken back from Cao Liyi's hand and showed it to Qiu Gongren. Su Zhuo continued: "Only when you know the things about Zhuang Li and others can you know what this letter says. Obviously, Cao Liyi and another person were the initiators of the indiscriminate construction of the river embankment and the cause of the current flood! Cao Liyi sent someone to kill the river worker who knew about it, and then reported to this person. But this letter was stolen by Yan'er, and Cao Liyi sent people to chase and kill him in order to prevent the secret from leaking. ”

Yan'er knew that she could not escape, so she hid the letter in the incense burner of Guanyin Temple, and she was killed and buried in the south of the city. In order to find the murderer, I first found this letter, and then found Cao Liyi along the vine. At this moment, the Yellow River burst, causing a flood, and Cao Liyi suddenly disappeared. ”

Qiu Gongren said: "That's right! We all know what happened later, Cao Liyi's subordinate officials and the old slave of Cao Mansion died one after another. In the end, Cao Liyi was also discovered by you and died in the secret room. But what does this have to do with our coming to the Wei Mansion?"

Su Zhuo said: "Because, the mastermind behind all this is Wei Sheng! And what was stolen from Desheng's money village was the silver salary that he and Cao Liyi were greedy for!"

Wei Sheng sneered twice, and didn't seem to take Su Zhuo's words to heart at all. Qiu Gongren was stunned, his voice trembled slightly, and said, "This ...... How is this possible......"

Su Zhuo suddenly sneered at him and said, "How is it possible? Governor Qiu, are you still acting? I think when you see Cao Liyi's corpse, you should know the whole thing!"

Qiu Gongren's forehead suddenly broke out in a dense cold sweat, and he said, "This ...... This...... Where do you start......"

Su Zhuo said: "Even if you don't know where to start, I'll start from the beginning." Several floating corpses found in the north of the city yesterday were identified by Zhuang Li as dead river workers. They were buried in the levee and washed here with the flood. And the dirt in the cracks of their fingernails proves that the are not made of stones, but of sand. ”

"That's why they killed them. Then the four water officials and the old slave of Cao Fu were killed one after another, and all the people killed had a common feature, that is, the heart was injured by internal strength, and red, swollen and bruised blood formed in the chest. This person's martial arts are very skillful, and even ordinary pretenses can't be detected. ”

He paused, looked directly at Wei Sheng, and said, "At that time, I also thought that Cao Liyi was doing it in secret. But it turned out that Cao Liyi had been killed the day before yesterday. And he doesn't know martial arts, because of the green jade ring he wears on the thumb of his right hand. On the pinch marks on Yan'er's neck, there is a trace of a ring. If Cao Liyi knew martial arts, how could he use this method to kill someone? Therefore, the murderer was naturally someone else!"

Wei Sheng suddenly patted his palm twice, pointed at Hua Ping on the side, and said with a smile: "Wonderful! If I guessed correctly, you must know him!"
