Chapter 263 What He Was Afraid Of Leaking His Identity

Fu Rong looked up: "This person has ulterior motives, and it's hard to guarantee that he didn't deliberately stir up disputes among the courtiers by taking advantage of the Tang and Chen families."

"It is possible. However, there is no need for him to assassinate Tang Jian." Yang Su said, "Tang Jian got the money, and Xue Niang followed Tang Jian before this windfall, which shows that Xue Niang had no problem at all.

"Tang Jian had money, and later this third person also appeared and gave it to Xueniang what Tang Jian couldn't afford her, which shows that this person's financial resources are not weak.

"The remaining peanuts found in her house also showed that she had contacts with this third person before she went to Chen's house, so why didn't this rich and loving person keep her? And Xueniang didn't leak a word? "

"Naturally, it means that 'love' is fake, and it's true if it has a purpose." Ling Yuan said, "This person approached Xueniang with a purpose, and he couldn't show his face, so after Xueniang was brought back to Chen's house by Chen Xiong, this person didn't show up either. keep her.

"He privately suggested that Xueniang want to re-enter the Tang family by taking advantage of the fetus in her womb. Unexpectedly, things didn't go well, and the Tang and Chen families started fighting like a tug-of-war.

"This person was afraid that Xueniang would reveal the secret, so he used Chen Xiong's knife to kill her to silence her, and took the opportunity to intensify the conflict between the Chen and Tang families."

Fu Rong nodded thoughtfully.

Yang Su continued: "Since it is inferred that this person came for Tang Jian, then if Tang Jian has no bad deeds, if he is not for this money, what else is he for?

"But a thousand taels of silver should not be a big deal to a person who can buy makeup and brocade as a gift. The important thing is that there are words engraved on this batch of silver."

"That's right." Ling Yuan said, "Official money has provenance, so it's okay to put it in the cave. Once it is in the hands of others, especially in the hands of Tang Jian, who is a son of an official family, who can predict what disaster will happen? ?

"This person is not looking for Yin Zi, he should still be afraid that Yin Zi will show up and reveal his identity."

Fu Rong took a breath and stood up: "I wonder if my lord will allow me to ask Tang Jian a few words?"

Yang Su motioned to Guan Su: "Lead the son the way."

Ling Yuan watched him go out, and then said to Yang Su: "The village where Lingdang is recuperating is the Liuertun where Tang Jian went to!"

"I know." Yang Su's eyes became darker.

The place where Changying woke up from an injury four years ago was in Liuertun, and Tongzhou is located in the southeast of the capital, so naturally it wouldn't be the one in the northern suburbs.

In other words, the Liuertun that Tang Jian went to was the Liuertun where Changying's "healing" tenant lived.

"Tang Jian was emotional just now, so he really didn't know the reason for killing him, and I don't think he lied. And that batch of money happened to be official money from four years ago, so is it possible that this person is related to those people back then? "Ling Yuan looked at Yang Su.

"Whether it's true or not, you have to go and see it." Yang Su picked up the cloak at this point: "It's not too late, let's take Tang Jian and go out of the city to have a look!"

Then he turned back to Xie Peng and said, "Tell the person on duty to take care of it carefully. At this moment, many people will see our jokes."

If Tang Jian really died in Wucheng Yamen tonight, even if the Tang family could not blame Yang Su, they would at least be implicated.

Fu Rong is also asking Tang Jian: "The Tang family has cultivated and studied in the heirloom, and has never provoked bandits. It must be unusual for a cousin to suffer a catastrophe.

"It's killing people, you have to be honest, apart from that sum of money, you really didn't get anything else?"

Tang Jian was hesitating, and Yang Su arrived.

I heard that they were going to visit the outskirts of the city, and Fu Rongzi also went with them.

In an instant, several riders galloped out of the city gate and headed straight for the southern suburbs.

Changying and Feng Shaoyin were on the same road halfway, Shaoyin was going to Yue's house, so they parted ways.

Zixiang complained that she went out without bringing anyone with her, and came back so late, she smiled and explained that she went to have dinner with Ling Yuanfu's family.

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Liang's courtyard again. Seeing that there was no light, he knew that he had probably gone to the yamen, and he didn't know what happened to the Tang family.
"Your servant already knows." Just as she was thinking, Zixiang smiled, "The lord was talking to the guards in the evening."

He said again: "Xiuxiu also came to talk, saying that the Rong family has not been peaceful these few days, she will come here after waiting."

Changying guessed that it was the Yu family and Rong Biru who fought again, knowing that Xiuxiu was fine, she left it alone for the time being.

……

The three of Yang Su, together with Tang Jian and his entourage, rushed to Liuertun in less than half an hour.

It was late at night, everything was quiet, but the sound of horseshoes caused dogs to bark all the way.

Fortunately, there was a cold moon in the sky, Tang Jian led the way to the ruined temple on the mountain, Yang Su walked and watched, it was in this village that Changying was in danger, this place is close to the post road, and the terrain is only a few miles away from the place where they fell off the cliff .

He said to Tong Qi: "You go down the mountain to find the exact location of the tenant named Sun."

After Chang Ying had confessed to him about the injury, he had sent someone to look for tenants, but it was not Tong Qi who came in person.

Ling Yuan next to him heard it, stood on the hillside and looked around, pointed to a village in the southwest under the moonlight: "That's right there."

Tong Qi went down immediately.

A group of people entered the temple, and Tang Jian led them directly inside.

The temple has been dilapidated. In the early years of Daning, with the prosperity of the sea and the prevalence of Buddhism, many Taoist temples have collapsed and abandoned. Except for the place where Yang Su and Changying stayed, this place also looks the same. Wall dust.

Tang Jian led the crowd to the backyard. The yard was overgrown with weeds and broken bricks everywhere. There were rustling sounds in the grass, and the cries of frightened little animals.

Tang Jian stopped under the courtyard wall at the back, pointed to a hole in the grass and said, "This is it."

After he finished speaking, he squatted down and scraped away the grass with his bare hands. The guards lit the torch, and a hole two feet square was exposed.

Tang Jian looked left and right, and suddenly ran to a pile of rotten wood on the east side, searched for a while, and brought a piece of clothing: "This is the clothing that blocked the entrance of the cave! I left it here by chance, and it's still there!"

Yang Su took it over.

The clothes turned out to be made of silk and satin, and half of them were worn out. The part that should be in the open air was eroded by the wind and rain, and it was torn apart at will.The other half still maintains almost the original appearance, because of the wrinkles, the old and new traces are intertwined.

Yang Su rummaged through it twice, and finally looked at the cuffs and collar, but he saw that they were smooth and smooth without any traces of fraying. He asked Guan Su to hold the lamp again, and squatted down to inspect the hole.

The hole is not deep, and there are still traces of digging the earth, which should be done when temporarily storing things.After removing some residual soil, there were two rusty long swords and a few broken pieces of rags.

"These rags are the furoshiki used to wrap the silver. The silver is heavy. I tore it up and left some."

Tang Jian and the others squatted down.

Yang Su picked up the pieces of cloth and glanced at the lamp, then handed them over to Guan Su, and then looked at the two swords again.
