Qiang Jin Jiu - Chap 87
The door panel fell to the ground “dangdang”, dust accumulated and the room was dark. Fei Sheng covered his mouth and nose and stepped into it without missing any corner.
This is Qin | Wang’s old home, and despite years of disrepair, he still can see the magnificence once. Fei Sheng lit the candle that he carried, put out the fire, and went to bed.
“The tent and the bedding are new.” Ge Qingqing dangled and looked at the bed.
“Some people lived a few days ago,” Fei Sheng stayed at the table, removed the teapot lid, and there were still tea stains in it. “Drinking Juexi White Horse Spring Tea, it seems that Honghong Xuan did not treat them.”
Ge Qingqing saw blood stains while examining the bed. He jumped up quickly in his chest, lifted off the entire quilt, and then took a sharp step back.
There was a stink corpse hidden on the bed. The corpse was obvious, apparently dead for several days. Fei Sheng held the light and examined the body.
“This man was pinched,” Fei Sheng pointed at the corpse’s throat, “directly pinched off.”
“There are bloodstains,” said Ge Qingqing, “he had been injured by a knife before his death.”
“Not only that, there are two marks on his neck, which shows that he was not able to strangle him for the first time. How could those Jianghu people who were invited by Ji Hongxuan to push this master to this point?” Fei Sheng said, using a knife against the corpse, slowly turning over the body, “the corpse spot is normal, it should not be poisoned. The knife wound on the back is so messy, obviously the layman who does not know the sword has been chopped randomly, the knife is Therefore, he chose to strangle him. This person should have been killed by their joint efforts. I suspect that the Master was injured. It may be that he is physically weak. He had to take the knife himself as a last resort. ”
Ge Qingqing listened more and more shocked and said, “Since the corpses can be placed so neatly, does it mean that the husband and master have not reached the stage of panic? As long as …”
“The body may also have been laid by someone else,” Fei Sheng looked around again, “there is no trace of fighting here … I feel that the Master was injured and could not flex his fists freely, so he had to rely on the strength of the gentleman. But they were again The transfer must not be the arrangement of Tong Hongxuan, because the Jianghu people he hired did not dare to oppose Jin Yiwei for a few dollars. Whether the corpse or the Jianghu people had to say two more, if it was not the Jianghu people– ”
Fei Sheng’s voice stopped abruptly. He is willing to work for Shen Zechuan, but he is going for the fat. If this is not a personal grudge, it will involve the court disputes. He didn’t want to put himself in it, so he didn’t finish the second sentence-if it wasn’t for Jianghu, then only Danet would have such a master. This body might come from Jin Yiwei himself.
Ge Qingqing knew his concerns and the two were in a deadlock. The room was so horrible that staying like that wasn’t the answer.
Fei Sheng retracted the knife and said, “People must be in the capital. All official residences and palaces are guarded by special guards. Their doors are closed and there are secret passages inside. It is easy to hide a few people. I can find it for Master Shen! ”
Saying nothing to Ge Qingqing, he went out the same way and started to return.
Ge Qingqing was in the same place, watching the blood stains drag to the ground, and then knelt down along the blood stains, looking down at the bottom of the bed. Under the bed was darker, there seemed to be something, and Ge Qingqing pulled out his hand, but it was an ashes. Ge Qingqing blows off the ash, leaving only a fingernail-sized piece of paper in his palm.
It was Qi Huilian’s remnants of his unburned notes.
***
Shen Zechuan closed his eyes with a false eye, holding the burnt yellow paper between his fingers, with only a few words left on it, but he was most familiar with it.
Qi Huilian’s note involves many things, which are the strategies they used to talk to in Zhao sin Temple. Everything he taught to Shen Zechuan, as well as the eunuchs who were familiar with his tenure as a prince, were all here. During the epidemic, Qiao Tianya was transferred to the attic together and kept by Qi Huilian himself.
Qi Huilian has a set of reading methods to prevent information leakage. What to read and how to read it all are his own deliberations in his spare time in the temple. If he reads in the usual order, many things will appear cluttered, like crazy words, no end.
But he burned it down, because of the situation, or because he was worried that the prisoner could read it?
Qiao Tianya leaned against the wall, and when Shen Zechuan came out, he couldn’t help getting up. Shen Zechuan stepped down and said, “Get a car.”
Qiao Tianya saw that it was too late and knew where he was going. The unobtrusive ordinary horse-drawn carriage drove out and circled twice on Shenwu Street before arriving at Meizhai.
“Where is Lord Hou?” Shen Zechuan got out of the car and asked.
Seeing his dignified look, Ding Tao didn’t dare to make trouble, and said truthfully: “Uncle Hou went out. Please invite Uncle Xue to have wine and come back later. My lord, do you need me to invite Uncle Hou to come back? A few streets. ”
Xiao Chiye invited Xue Xiuyi to have a drink at the moment. He must be exploring Xue Xiuzhuo’s bottom. Xue’s house is not easy to check. There are people in the hospital like Xue Xiuyi who are far more convenient than sending people to find out.
Shen Zechuan walked into the courtyard and said, “Just tell him I’m here tonight, let him come back after eating, don’t stay overnight outside. But also tell him not to worry, don’t have to rush back immediately, Xue Xiuyi is not easy. Pass. ”
Ding Tao responded. Qiao Tianya followed Shen Zechuan and asked, “Why are you so anxious?”
“Pan Hongxuan didn’t believe anyone, but he believed in Xue Xiuzhuo.” Shen Zechuan took the lantern in the dim light. “The last time Dan Dan lied to him, he would rather doubt Luo Dan than he would doubt Xue Xiuzhuo. He had to ask Xue Xiuzhuo everything before. It is inevitable that he will hold his own this time when he takes Mr.
Before Wu Hongxuan died, Shen Zechuan was so determined that he would be defeated. Why? He must know something that Shen Zechuan didn’t know yet. It was Xue Xiuzhuo’s suggestion that Wu Hongxuan was promoted to the examination department. He listened to Xue Xiuzhuo so much—why did he listen to Xue Xiuzhuo so much?
Shen Zechuan’s footsteps suddenly stood in place.
The Xue family has been declining for a long time. Xun Hongxuan will never obey a slump, and he will never easily convince anyone. The two got along and borrowed the friendship of their classmates, because the marriage relationship between the two previous generations was still related, but what did Xue Xiuzhuo use to stabilize Wu Hongxuan? Xi Hongxuan is only profitable. Even his brother-in-law can say kill and kill. With that little blood relationship, Xue Xiuzhuo cannot get his trust.
Shen Zechuan was anxious for no reason. He looked at the eaves. The shaded image was a beast with dancing teeth. He had already bitten his half body between the sharp teeth. The unclear clues were like dense water plants. Hands and feet made him aware of the danger.
***
Xiao Chiye invited Xue Xiuyi to have a drink. When he saw Ding Tao coming in halfway, he knew that Shen Zechuan had returned to his house. While socializing with others, he nodded slightly to Ding Tao and signaled that he knew.
Xue Xiuyi was drunk again. He wanted to bring a few prostitutes to accompany him, but Xiao Chiye didn’t mention this, and he didn’t dare to call people rashly. At this moment, the wine goblet continued, and he smashed the wine glass, and said to Xiao Chiye, “He … Xue Yanqing! The young chicks raised in the house were specially set aside in a large yard, and they usually invited … please, Please sir, please do something private … I don’t think he looks like a prostitute. ”
“Really,” Xiao Chiye went down with a few glasses of wine, and at the slightest drunkenness, Chen Yang on the side filled Xue Xiuyi with wine, he touched it with a glass and said, “Then he buys these people What? There must be a reason. ”
“Xue Xiuzhuo is weird!” Xue Xiuyi drank with a few sips of alcohol, then said, “If Hou Ye reminded me, I haven’t noticed yet … these people he bought are similar in age, but they look good, and both men and women look good. I Knowing that many people in the Central China like male style, the rabbit grandfathers on Donglong Avenue are all delicate and soft, not worse than real, real women! Does he think that the outside is not clean and easy to implement, so he just I also raised a group secretly, waiting for a relationship in the future? ”
Xiao Chiye did not listen to his letter, and he drank the wine. He said, “Then he will have to work hard. The rabbits named Donglong on the street are all made of real gold and silver. The boy he bought There are girls and boys, please sir, just teach boys? ”
“The weirdness is here!” Xue Xiuyi was drunk and indecent, he paused for a moment, and finally stopped, he said to Xiao Chiye, “Hou Ye, he let those girls learn to play piano, calligraphy and painting. I know what it is “Which man doesn’t like red sleeves to add fragrance? But what he taught those boys is policy.”
Xiao Chiye turned his eyes and looked at Xue Xiuyi, repeating: “He taught the boys the policy? Is there only the policy?”
Xue Xiuyi shook his head vigorously, stretched out his fingers, and said, “He has built a primary school in that yard, and sometimes he goes in to lecture. Hey, do you know what he’s talking about? It’s all serious books. I listened the other day, he also taught these boys … current politics! ”
***
Xiao Chiye returned home late, and when he saw that the room was still on, he knew that Shen Zechuan was still waiting for himself. Chen Yang dispersed the waiters, leaving only a few guards in the yard.
Xiao Chiye entered as usual, and inside he lit a glass lamp. Shen Zechuan looked at the case a few years ago, withdrew the crown, and put on Xiao Chiye’s robe.
Xiao Chiye leaned over Shen Zechuan’s back, kissed his earlobe with his head tilted, and said, “Leave a note when something happens, and it will be the same if we get up tomorrow morning.”
Shen Zechuan said, looking at him sideways.
Xiao Chiye got up, took off his knife, took off his coat, and sat cross-legged beside Shen Zechuan.
Shen Zechuan held the pages of his book with his fingertips, but did not turn over, saying, “Some things need to be interviewed, and I can’t speak clearly.”
Xiao Chiye finally relaxed, unbuttoned, and said, “Come in order, you first or me first?”
Shen Zechuan saw that he hadn’t pulled him for a while, then raised his finger to unbutton his clothes, thought for a moment, and said, “I have a lot of things that I haven’t figured out yet, you can say it first.”
Xiao Chiye supported his younger elbow, pulled out another booklet from the large cabinet on the side, and handed it to Shen Zechuan. In the gap he looked at, he said: “The group of people Xue Xuezhuo bought is the oldest eighteen and the youngest ten At the age of four, boys and girls are mixed in a yard, and the only thing they have in common is that they are all born well. ”
“Eight cities, Zhongbo, Juxi,” Shen Zechuan’s fingertips walked along the name again, “he buys people regardless of their place of origin.”
“This may be to confuse the audiovisual, so that even if you want to check it, you can’t get started.” Xiao Chiye watched Shen Zechuan suddenly stop somewhere, and he took a closer look, “Have you ever seen this name?”
Shen Zechuan looked at the name and said, “Ling Ting … I have heard this name at Xiangyunfang.”
“They are all Xiang Yun people,” Xiao Chiye said. “She likes smart children, so she used” Ling “as her surname and renamed these young children.”
“You have a drink with Xue Xiuyi tonight. Did he say anything?”
“He talked about something weird,” Xiao Chi paused for a short while. “He said Xue Xiuzhuo bought these people back to the government, and the girls learned all the things taught in the green house, but the boys were serious. Xuetang. Xue Xiuyi invited these boys to sir. Not only did they have time exams in Taixue, they also talked about current affairs. ”
Shen Zechuan groaned silently.
Xiao Chiye said: “If he wants students, he can choose from serious people’s homes. Some people in Taixue want to worship him as a teacher. But he teaches boys bought from the blue house in this way. What great lessons have he learned, because he can’t enter the official office? What good is it for him? Unless he intends to raise a group of Fuqing Qingke. ”
“Xue Xiuzhuo …” Shen Zechuan seemed to be away. He listened to Xiao Chiye’s words and quickly sorted out his thoughts. “If he wants to raise a clear customer, there are better candidates. You and I have missed a little earlier. Xue Xiuzhuo and Tong Hongxuan made a good relationship. He wanted to approve the brothels of Qinglou. Can he not afford them? But he spent the money to buy them at Xiangyunfang, indicating that he was going for one of them. ”
The picture flashed in Shen Zechuan’s mind. Although he did not have the unforgettable ability like Ding Tao, in the past, he tried hard to think about everything and every word in his heart. He remembered that he would not forget Any details.
“As long as Li’s blood is flowing, it is the emperor.”
Qi Taifu’s words were like a thunder, splitting the sorrow of Shen Zechuan at the moment. He thought of this sentence and thought of more. He knelt and straightened abruptly, flipping the sleeves of the paper on his sleeve.
“Xian Emperor …” Shen Zechuan held Xiao Chiye’s arm, and his voice gradually stabilized. “Xian Emperor had been in office for more than eight years. Shen Xun was unhealed, and his sons withered. Only Wei Xun was pregnant. Hua’s rebellion at Nanlin Hunting Ground. That night, Hua Siqian had the courage to do it. It was the child in Wei Wei ’s belly. But after that night, when we returned to the capital, Wei Wei had been thrown into the well. I was suspicious of you at first, and Hai Liangyi later. An old faction of the school, in order to completely cut off the family ’s imagination and let Li Jianheng successfully ascend the throne, they first started to kill Wei Wei. But now there is something wrong with it. Even if Wei Wei is pregnant, he does not know men and women, more Unable to compete with Li Jianheng, who already has support from the north, killing Wei Wei is all that is necessary for Hai Liangyi. ”
“I pushed forward. Before Emperor Xiande, Emperor Guangcheng was in office. Prince Togong confessed to the Temple of Chaosin because of conspiracy. At that time, the emperor grandson was still alive. If he was not dead, he should be 26 years old this year. However, this case was handled by Ji Lei and Shen Wei. At that time, in order to show loyalty to Pan Rugui, Ji Lei would not dare to carelessly, and it is impossible to leave such a great scourge. Then this world can still be called the emperor There are only– ”
Xiao Chiye held Shen Zechuan’s cold hand, and Shen Sheng replied: “The oldest eighteen and the youngest fourteen are the emperor, and only the Emperor Guangcheng can match the time. East Palace in Yongyi Tu, and in the past ten years, no concubine in the palace could give birth to the emperor’s concubine under the eyes of the empress. Although Emperor Guangcheng was sick at the time, he was not weak, and he could not escape the constraints of the flower family. Can find a way outside the palace. ”
“Xuehuazhuo was the only one who was hollowed out to fill the tanks under the floor of the Huahua Tower. The collapse was to kill Li Jianheng. What I have been unable to figure out is here. Now suppose he really holds an imperial concubine, then everything will work. It makes sense. He killed Wei Yan, and then wanted to kill Li Jianheng. “Shen Zechuan’s secret anxiety became clearer and clearer.
Xiao Chiye was also shocked by the sudden conjecture. He said, “If this is the case, the emperor is among those people.”
The two face to face, Shen Zechuan lowered his voice and said, “This emperor–”
“Can’t stay.” Xiao Chiye pinched Shen Zechuan’s chin, pulled closer, his eyes were deep, “Lanzhou, none of these people can stay.”
He spoke unpleasantly, and the intention of killing seemed to be buried in the deep waves. They all thought a lot at this moment, what does imperial **** mean? It means that everything existing will become passive. Will the family holding the emperor be easily defeated? Think about the queen mother who has been in politics for twenty years. The Li family under control can only become a puppet. The powerful parties are bound to rise again, and Hai Liangyi will again be beaten!
There was a sudden knock outside the door, breaking the solemn atmosphere of the two.
Xiao Chiye said, “Say.”
With a subtle urge, Qiao Tianya said, “Master, those who chase Lan Dan overnight have returned.”
Shen Zechuan immediately got up and opened the door. Qiao Tianya stood out to give way, Shen Zechuan looked at Ge Qingqing, who was kneeling on one knee in the courtyard, and went down the stairs, saying, “What’s wrong?”
“Sir,” Ge Qingqing looked up, and his throat was jerky. “Yuan Dan opened the money store of his family, and it was already evacuated.”
The branches and leaves in the courtyard rang, and he turned his head to look at Ge Qingqing, Yuehui whitened the ground, as if covered with thick frost. In a dead silence, Shen Zechuan looked back for a while and said to Xiao Chiye, “Erlang, we have been playing around with him.”
His soft tone allowed the guards in the courtyard to bow his head as much as possible.
