Gu Shiwei did not continue to explain, but Chu Liangchen thought about the killer who came up tonight, and it was self-evident what "leading the snake out of the hole" meant.

"So, who ordered you to kill Wang Quan?"

Gu Shiwei's tone suddenly cooled down. She was not a kind person with nothing to do. She was here to find out the truth about the weapon-breaking case.

Chu Liangchen did not hesitate, "I don't know who that person is."

He said, looking softly at the children beside him.

The child's face was pale, his lips were black and blue, and he looked like he was suffering from a serious disease.The legs of his trousers were a little empty, and he was obviously not walking well.However, even though he had just experienced a life and death battle, the child still looked calm and showed little fear.

Seeing Chu Liangchen looking at him, the child named Xiao Jing spoke first.

"Master Gu, when I was hiding in the cellar of the house, I heard the official from Kaifeng Mansion call you this. Brother Liangchen is a good man. He killed Wang Quan entirely because of me. If I hadn't dragged him down..."

Chu Liangchen listened and shook his head at the child.

"Actually, I have met Mr. Gu before. My father is Wang Shen, the deputy governor of the front department of the palace... On my grandmother's [-]th birthday, Mr. Gu brought a birthday gift to Mr. Gu and helped a maid to catch fish in the small garden. We arrived at a white cat that climbed into a tree."

Gu Shinwei's pupils shrank suddenly, and she stood up suddenly and looked at the thin child in front of her.

She didn't see the child with her own eyes at the time, but she felt it.

In the pavilion in the middle of the lake not far away, there is a gaze that has been paying attention to this place, and the sound of breathing is innately inadequate.She once heard someone say that Lao Benshengzhu, the wife of Wang Shen, the deputy governor of the Palace Department, had a daughter named Wang Jing.

The child was a medicine pot when he was born and was rarely seen in front of others.

In the Feiqiao case, Wang Shen of the Dianqian Division was imprisoned and finally committed suicide in prison out of fear of crime.

"You must have remembered, right? I was born with a congenital deficiency and a heart disease. I used the Baoning pill passed down from the family of Imperial Physician Tang. The medicinal materials used in this medicine are extremely precious and cannot be afforded by ordinary people."

"Three years ago, our family suffered a catastrophe. My father and brother died tragically. Because I was young and ill, I was exiled three thousand miles with my mother. Even if my mother could walk such a long distance, I couldn't. As soon as I started on the road, I So sick that he fell unconscious.”

"My mother spent the last bit of money she had hidden in her body and bribed the prison officer to put me on the bamboo raft. Then I went along with the water to save me from the suffering of this world. When the prison officer saw me Being young and seeing that he only had a few days left, he did as he was told."

Wang Jing said with tears streaming down his face.

He pursed his lips and pushed back the tears in his eyes.

Perhaps because of a congenital disease, he was much wiser than ordinary people.He still clearly remembers that he was placed on the cold bamboo raft, and as the current drifted farther and farther, the waves in the river hit him, and the water mist splashed on his face. At a young age, he simply couldn't I couldn't tell if they were water drops or tears he shed.

He didn't understand it at all at that time.

Two days ago, my father was happily saying that he could witness the history of Dayong with his own eyes because of the establishment of a prince in the official family. Going further, my grandmother had just celebrated her birthday party.

The family was prosperous, but the most troublesome thing about his mother was that the Baoning pills were too big and too bitter, and the variety of dried fruit snacks to eat with them was not rich enough.

Suddenly, the building collapsed and my father became a traitor...

He still remembers his mother kneeling on the bank of the river and crying, the shackles on her body banging on the ground.

Gradually, he couldn't even hear the custody officer's cursing and urging, and the sound of rushing water filled his ears.

"Maybe my life should not have been cut off. I thought I was going to die, but brother Liangchen picked me up. At that time, I only had the Jade Ruyi and a few Baoning Pills on me, which my mother had sewn into my clothes with needle and thread. ." "After taking the remaining medicine, I had no choice but to leave Caobang and quietly took me back to Bianjing City."

Gu Shiwei was a little dazed when he heard it. No wonder Mr. Jiang said that Chu Liangchen would do anything for money. Wang Jing's medicine money was indeed a huge burden.

"We are not related, and I am just a drag, but brother Liangchen worked hard to support me for three years. He is really a very good person. Mr. Gu, if you can, can you let him go?" Are you leaving? He took the wrong path because of me."

Gu Shiwei did not answer Wang Jing's words directly. She took out the brocade bag containing pear candy and stuffed it into Wang Jing's hand.

Wang Jing felt his hands sink. He looked down and saw round golden candies through the mouth of the brocade bag.

His tears suddenly fell down.

He picked up a candy, but did not put it in his mouth, but gave it to Chu Liangchen.

"Last winter, my illness suddenly worsened. There was a leak in the house, and it rained all night. The wind outside suddenly became louder, and someone brought up the Feiqiao case again. The previous three years had been fine, so I relaxed my vigilance and helped Many people wrote letters.”

"Brother Liangchen decided to take me away from Bianjing to avoid the limelight..."

When Chu Liangchen heard this, he took over Wang Jing's words, "If we want to leave here, we have to treat Xiao Jing first. When his condition gets better, then we will buy some Baoning Pills. So I went to pawn the Wu Umbrella Xiaojing’s jade is as expected.”

That jade Ruyi is not a strange style and will not be associated with Wang Jing's identity.

"I took Yu Ruyi's money and bought medicine for Xiao Jing. He got better, so I hid him in the cellar and told the public that he was dead. Then I planned to make some more money and leave. I went to find Mr. Jiang and wanted him to find me some hard-earned jobs that would bring me lots of money."

Chu Liangchen clenched his fists as he spoke. Naturally, it was not hard work that brought in the most money, but the killing and smuggling of goods.

Mr. Jiang is like a broker, doing dirty business.

"But Mr. Jiang told me that there was no suitable one. During that time, I often wandered near Yong'an Bridge, thinking about how to get the medicine from Tang Taiyi's house. I heard that Tang Erlang had a weird temperament, and he would kill anyone he met with. No money for medicine.”

"Honestly," Chu Liangchen said, with a look of shame on his face, "Honestly, I thought I would steal if I couldn't make any money."

"That afternoon, I met that person on Yong'an Bridge. She was wearing a curtain hat and sounded like a young girl. She gave me a piece of gold and asked me to sneak into the Yong'an River at night to kill Wang Quan and take him away. The letter on my body."

"Although she was dressed like a young lady from a wealthy family, when she handed me the gold, I saw calluses on her hands. She must be a martial arts practitioner."

Chu Liangchen said and glanced at Gu Shiwei.

After she stood up after hearing Wang Jing's life experience, she never sat down.

He thought and added, "That girl is not as tall as you, she is about as tall as your eyes."

"When I was touching the letter on the king's body under the water, Tang Erlang dragged the walnuts hanging around his neck away. I swam to the other side of the river and put the letter on a boat docked on the shore as agreed."

"There was no one on the boat, and I didn't open the letter. But because it had been soaked in water for a long time, even if the letter was opened, the contents inside should have been spent."

"That's all I know."

Chu Liangchen said and looked at Wang Jing. Wang Jing suddenly realized something. He dug into his arms and took out an ingot of gold. "After I went back, I found something wrong with that ingot of gold. I knew that a disaster was coming, so I decided to I came up with the matter of fake death..."
