Chapter 255 Mutual Supervision
"Keep checking, I want all the information about this person."

Wang Dong wanted to kill Lin Chujiu, but couldn't kill him several times. There must be something wrong with this.

Either someone was secretly protecting her. After all, she couldn't be lucky enough to escape every time.

On the other side, Ouyang Jianxiu was already interrogating the assassin.

Yuan Jing is on the side. Although he doesn't speak much, his eyes are sharp. Because he has been at the border for many years, he has rich experience in interrogating prisoners and can use all kinds of tricks.

However, there are not many torture instruments in this place, so there is little room for display.

The assassin can still endure it, so he won't let go even if he bites him to death.

"You don't have to bother. No matter how many questions you ask, I still don't know. Why should you accuse me unjustly?"

"Since you said so, you'd better stick to it right away and don't change your mind later."

The corner of Yuan Jing's mouth raised slightly, and he asked the people below to bring him a basin of cold water, and then asked someone to tie the assassin to a chair and lay him down.

After the rough paper is wetted with water and applied to a person's face, the person will soon be able to breathe.

The assassin's face was red to the root of his neck, but he still didn't speak. No matter how he asked, it seemed that he would rather die than speak.

Yuan Jing asked people to put paper towels up one by one. However, he did not want the assassin to die and would let him breathe in the middle.

When he didn't finish his breath, Yuan Jing asked someone to stick the wet paper on it again, giving him a feeling of dissatisfaction.

"If you are willing to speak now, I can reduce your sentence, but if you don't speak, we will have no chance to cooperate in the future, and your family..."

When it comes to his family, the man must be scared, and he immediately relaxes.

"I'm willing to explain."

"If I had known this, why would I have to suffer so much?"

Now that the assassin relented, Yuan Jing was no longer needed, so Ouyang Jianxiu began to interrogate.

Ouyang Jianxiu told Yuan Jing: "Your people have come from the capital, but there are only three of them."

Yuan Jingcheng nodded. These people are loyal and loyal, which is enough.

He returned to Chunfeng Tower and soon saw his brothers.

"Ah Shui, Xiaolou, Chun'er, are you here?"

"I have met His Highness the Third Highness." The three people saluted respectfully, with a hint of excitement in their eyes.

"Are you tired from the journey?"

"It's nothing tiring. We were very excited when we learned the news. We are really happy to see you now."

"Did you encounter any unusual situations when you came here?"

Chun'er thought for a while and said: "When we first set off, there were indeed a few people following us, but we were already getting rid of them because of our high martial arts skills."

Yuan Jing thought of this and nodded: "Then let's start here, investigate the group of people who are following you, and this Higanhua-style mark, and find out whose subordinates it is."

"By the way, Xiaolou will stay here with me, and Chun'er will go to Lin Chujiu's house to teach Lin Jianyan martial arts."

When he heard this, Chun'er obviously didn't expect that he would come all the way here and actually have to take care of a little girl?

"Your Highness, this..."

"Don't think this is overkill. This is the most important thing. It's not just coaxing a child. You not only have to teach her, but you have to teach her well."

Chun'er still felt a little embarrassed. How could teaching a little girl martial arts be more important than protecting her master?
But since Yuan Jing said he valued it so much, he didn't dare to resist and could only do what Yuan Jing wanted. However, Ah Shui was unwilling to leave.

"Your Highness, we just met you. If they stay, I have to go back to the capital. Isn't this a bit too hasty?"

"It's nothing, Ah Shui. If you think about it carefully, His Highness assigns different tasks to each of us. This means that the things each of us is responsible for are very important."

Xiaolou understood this truth and told him that there would be many dangers along the way. If the third prince wanted to return to Beijing, he should at least eliminate these dangers in advance.

Yuan Jing felt that what he said made sense, so he nodded.

"Xiaolou is right, Ah Shui, you should prepare to follow. By the way, you must protect the things I give you. When you return to the capital, arrange them according to what I said."

Although Ah Shui was a little reluctant, he could only do this.

After Yuan Jing arranged everything here, he returned to the cell. He was still very concerned about the interrogation.

But Ouyang Jianxiu made no progress. In short, although the assassin confessed some things, he was just a killer after all.

If you want to find out the matter, you have to return to the capital to find out the truth about this matter.

Moreover, this is just a small place, killing people everywhere. All the killers are hired and have no special relationship with the mastermind behind the scenes.

If you want to find out the truth, you have to return to the emperor's feet.

"Don't worry, I'll let Ah Shui go back, and I'll send him back when the time comes."

"Then this matter will not be investigated?"

“Since this group of people don’t want to cooperate, let’s stop here.”

After saying that, Yuan Jing took Ouyang Jianxiu to eat together. Lord Ouyang was not in the mood.

"Master Ouyang, why do you have to look so sad?"

"Your Highness, in fact, apart from the interrogation, there is one more thing I haven't resolved here. There are always some omissions in the account books left by Zhang Buzheng. I haven't figured it out yet. There are many places where something is wrong."

Lin Chujiu met Ouyang Jianxiu while eating, so he took the initiative to suggest that he wanted to see the account book.

Because she was in business and knew a lot about accounting, Ouyang Jianxiu still believed in her.

"This account book is very complicated to remember. If the girl can't read it clearly, we can find an accountant to help her read it."

"Don't worry, sir, I'll take a look first."

There were a lot of ledgers, and if Lin Chujiu wanted to read them all at once, it would take him only a few days and nights.

In fact, she stayed up all night, and Lin Jianyan was helping her look through the ledgers and classify them.

"I didn't expect that reading and literacy would be so important. I used to think that learning martial arts was important because I could protect my parents and sister. I didn't expect that not being literate would be so troublesome."

Hearing this, Lin Chujiu smiled: "When I asked you to study, you were still unwilling. What's going on now?"

"I was still too young at the time and had no interest in studying. Fortunately, I was able to write when I was studying later, thanks to my sister."

"Oh, let's not talk about this anymore. If you are willing to study and progress, my sister will still support you in going to school. Have you settled these accounts?"

"It's all done, sister, take a look."

Lin Chujiu felt a little emotional. In this era, there were no advanced computers, so we still had to use our hands. Fortunately, we could write and draw, and we could also sort out some features.

The difference is not big, a little will make a lot.
