Chapter 95 General Xu is Injured
After Zhou Liang came back, he had more manpower, and Chang Ying sent him to Wang Zhao's side, while Huang Ji was still in charge of the material distribution in the lumber yard.

Xu Lan didn't come to the guard for the next few days, and Huo Rong didn't show up either.

But Changying was still thinking about the case, both public and private, and now that she has found out, she has no reason to sit still.

So she planned to go to the pier in the afternoon, but at noon Tan Shuyin brought a basket of fresh big cherries, so she had to go to Tan's house to visit again.

When passing by Su's house, I happened to meet Su Xinrong walking out of the door accompanied by two women.

These two are about the same age, one has similar facial features and eyebrows to Su Xinrong, and has a thin body.

The other one is richer, with gentle words and firm actions. She is dressed in eight-quarter-new brocade clothes, with two or three gold hairpins in her hair, neither dazzling nor shabby.

Changying guessed who it was, so she lowered her eyebrows and planned to pass by.

Su Xinrong saw it, and she intentionally made things difficult for her: "Where is General Shen going?"

Changying had no choice but to turn around and say hello: "It's General Su. I'm going to the Tan Mansion. Do you have anything to do?"

As she spoke, she shifted her gaze to Pang and Mrs. Xu's faces, paused, and saluted.

Su Xinrong twitched her mouth: "I'm fine. When I saw you passing by, I just wanted to leave without saying hello, thinking there was something urgent."

"If you say it's urgent, it's urgent, if you say it's not urgent, it's not urgent. If you have nothing to do, then I will leave first, and I will talk about it when I go back to the government office."

Chang Tassel finished singing with her without a smile on his face, nodded, turned and left.

Mrs. Xu looked at her back for a while, then turned her head and asked Su Xinrong, "Is this General Shen Changying who lives next door to your house?"

Su Xinrong paused slightly: "Aunt Xu also knows her?"

Mrs. Xu smiled slightly, walked up the street without saying anything.

When Changying arrived at Tan's house, Huo Rong happened to be listening to the report brought back by Tong Qi.

"I lurked on the ship for three consecutive days and got a lot of evidence of Qian Yun's corruption and lawlessness, but I didn't get any clues about his collusion with Wang Zhao and the merchant ship.

"As for Wu Li's side, he also sent someone to follow him at all times. He has been on Qian Yun's boat four times, but he also did not find out that he had any personal relationship with Wang Zhao."

"Where is Wang Zhao?" Huo Rong asked.

"Wang Zhao has a big problem here." Tong Qi followed him to the window and said, "Wang Zhao visited Liu Wei, another supervisor of the Water Transport Department, on the night when Wang Zhao went to the stone tablet on the river bank to deliver the letter. It lasted no more than two quarters of an hour, but they chose to meet at night.

"And Liu Wei and Wu Lai are both supervisors of land and grain collection in the Department of Water Transport, and it is rumored that they once had quarrels."

Huo Rong turned his body sideways: "Liu Wei?"

"Exactly." Tong Qi said, "Then I asked someone to check this person's residence, and found that the windows of his and Wu Li's office rooms happened to be facing the stone tablet."

Huo Rong's expression gradually sank, he raised his hand and caressed the edge of the window, he said: "It's interesting."

He turned around with his hands behind his back, took a few steps along the screen, and then said, "Check Liu Wei's background."

Tong Qi said yes, and raised the file in her hand: "Should the evidence of Qian Yun's crimes be submitted to the emperor?"

Huo Rong turned it over twice in his hand, then returned it to him and said, "No need for now. It's not worth it to just put him down like this."

Changying said a few words to Tan Shuyin, and Tan Shao went back to the mansion. It turned out that there was a letter from the former military governor's mansion, and asked the governor of Zhejiang Province to personally receive it.

Seeing her there, she immediately stopped to ask about the affairs in the dock. Changying took advantage of the opportunity and told the news she and Huo Rong had found out a few days ago, but Tan Shao never gave any clear instructions.

Changying also understood that he had his own concerns. Before there was enough reserve force, it was obviously not wise to rashly declare war with the Water Transportation Department.

Just about to go back to the mansion to lead the horse to the pier, unexpectedly, Wu Ma came hurriedly with her little feet: "General Xu is injured!"

Chang Ying stood there in a daze, and Tan Shuyin came out: "What's wrong? How could you get hurt if you're doing well?"

"Your maidservant still doesn't know! Just now I also heard that there was a lot of movement in the Su family next door, so I came out to take a look.

"Then I saw that the two girls from the Su family went to Xu's house in a hurry, and their eldest wife also went, and told the servants to send a military doctor to Xu's house to heal General Xu's wounds, so the maidservant hurried over to report! "

Tan Shuyin quickly looked at Changying, and then they both stepped onto the street!

Xu's house was already crowded with people, Changying stepped into the corner gate, and saw the servants coming and going in and out of the main courtyard one after another, each of them looked panic-stricken, even when they came in, they didn't take the time to pay attention.

Mrs. Xu's steady and dignified voice was also coming out: "Someone come first and cut the uncle's clothes! Don't stand in front of the bed!"

Chang Ying's heart sank when she heard this voice, she needed to cut her clothes, this was no longer a minor injury!
She thought that he just went to the merchant ship to investigate secretly these few days, and somehow he came back with such an injury?
"Don't worry, let's meet Mrs. Xu first." Shuyin squeezed her hand and led her towards Mrs. Xu who had already come out.

Changying suddenly felt amused. She was worried that Xu Lan was injured, but why was she so anxious?
But it's inconvenient to stick to her at this time, after all, Xu Lan's injury is more important.

When she arrived in front of Mrs. Xu, she saluted: "Shen Changying, the deputy head of a thousand households under General Xu's command, has seen Mrs. Xu. I wonder how General Xu is injured?"

Sister Su Xinrong was also standing beside her, and Pang Zi was also there, and they all expressed varying degrees of concern for her appearance.

Mrs. Xu already knew Tan Shuyin because she had visited the Tan Mansion, and after meeting her, she turned to Changying, looked her up and said, "The injury is on the back and leg, she is awake, but a little tired.

"He went out last night. According to his attendants, it happened last night. He got rid of the murderer's siege early this morning. When the doctor comes later, you may come in and talk."

Changying thanked her, and stood on the porch to look at the door.

Fortunately, the doctor came soon, and then the nearby generals and their wives and relatives also came. Mrs. Xu wanted doctor Zhang Luo to diagnose and treat her, and Zhang Luo to treat her guests at another time, but she did not act in a hurry. There was a very worried expression between the eyebrows and eyes, but not to the point of weeping anxiously, which made Chang Ying secretly respectful.

In comparison, Pang Zi, who was yelling all the way, seemed to be more worried than her serious mother.

Sitting in the small hall of the west wing, Changying watched the clothes fragments and bloody water that the servants brought out one after another from the room, she couldn't help but clenched her fists and turned her eyes away.

"What's wrong?" Shuyin noticed.

She shook her head: "It's okay, maybe I haven't seen this scene for a long time, I'm a little dizzy."

It's strange to say that she is not such a hypocritical person. Although she has not had any major injuries in the past few years, she has also suffered minor injuries. How can she be so impatient.

But for some reason, when she saw these just now, some messy and blurry bloody pictures appeared in her mind inexplicably, as if she had seen who was injured and how.
