"I just went back to check. The reason why Bai Qing was able to find Zhu Xiesheng hiding in Shuorenfang was not because of himself, but when he was patrolling in the south of the city this morning, someone passed a note to him through a feather arrow. The content on the note is: 'The person the Wang family is pursuing is hidden in the cellar in the backyard of the fifth house east of Shuoren Square'.
Bai Qing followed the contents of the note and doubtfully went to the backyard of the fifth house to the east of Shuoren Fang. As expected, he found Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan. However, in order to take the credit, the man lied about the information and claimed that he had done it alone. Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan were discovered by force, and I was deceived by him because of this! "
After the interrogation of Zhu Xiesheng, Wang Liaoyuan, Dugu Feiying, and Li Tai were sitting in the back hall of the government office, each at a loss of what to do. At this time, Wang Yu came in from outside, with a calm face, and said to the three people in the room.
Judging from his unkind tone, I guess that after he returned to the Wang family alone, the Wang family must have been in a state of chaos, and the "initiator" Bai Qing's end will not be much better, and he will probably have to eat a meal. The pain of flesh and blood!
"Is there such a thing?"
Wang Liaoyuan looked slightly surprised, but then he felt that what he said was a bit inappropriate, and it was a bit like adding salt to Wang Yu's "wound", so he quickly changed the topic and said: "So, someone deliberately let us get it." Knowing the news about Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan, who will be the messenger?"
This problem can be regarded as difficult for everyone in the house. Wang Yu, Dugu Feiying, and Li Tai all frowned, thinking about the connection between these clues in their minds.
At this moment, a man walked in quickly from outside the door. He bowed directly to Wang Liaoyuan and clasped his fists, saying: "Sir, my subordinates took people to Chuji Iron Shop. They searched everything inside and out, except for some In addition to the weapons that are put out for sale every day, there are no warehouses hiding a large number of weapons!"
The person who came was none other than Feng Baotou from the state government office!
After interrogating Zhu Xiesheng, Wang Liaoyuan ordered Capt. Feng to go to Chuji Iron Shop to conduct a more detailed search. Now this case also involves someone smuggling weapons to the Turks. He must find out this case no matter what. This will give the court an explanation as to where the batch of weapons is going!
"No weapons? Okay! I know, you can go down first!"
Wang Liaoyuan frowned slightly when he heard this. He asked Feng Baotou to step back first, and then couldn't help stroking his beard and said: "It seems that Kang Changan has already delivered those weapons to the mysterious man behind the scenes? But how is this possible? ?”
In Wang Liaoyuan's subconscious, since the mysterious man behind the scenes was so cautious, he must have used some means to "remotely control" Zhu Xiesheng, Kang Changan and others from a far away place to do things for him, so he naturally thought It was impossible for Kang Changan to deliver those weapons to the mysterious man behind the scenes in such a short period of time!
Li Tai said at this time: "How is this impossible? Maybe the mysterious man behind the scenes is in Taiyuan City at this time!"
Li Tai said something that no one dared to think about. Everyone was shocked when they heard the words. Wang Liaoyuan almost pulled off his beard with a flick of his wrist. He couldn't believe it for a while and said: "What? That? The mysterious man behind the scenes is in Taiyuan right now? How is this possible?"
Wang Yu has always been calm. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Your Highness's guess seems impossible, but it is the most reasonable explanation for the sudden disappearance of the weapons in Chuji Iron Shop! If I were the person behind the scenes, It is estimated that I will choose to stay in Taiyuan City at this moment!
Not to mention that it is more convenient to direct the people below to help him do things. On the other hand, the most dangerous place is the safest place! In Taiyuan City, Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Chang'an were covering him in the open, and he himself could see the fire clearly in the dark, which would only make him safer! "
The most dangerous place is the safest place! Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan were just covering up for the people behind the scenes!
As soon as Wang Yu said these words, the eyes of everyone present were brightened.
Li Tai couldn't help but said: "If this is the case, then many things can be explained! Zhu Xiesheng has been regarded as a chess piece since he first entered the Tang Dynasty, and one was used to distract us. chess piece, because although this person seems to have many clues, they are not directly connected to the mysterious person behind the scenes. Through him, we can't find any information about the mysterious person behind the scenes!
Therefore, there is absolutely no risk to the mysterious man behind the scenes by using this kind of person to share his attention! Two days ago, General Fei Ying brought his people to Taiyuan City to investigate hidden dangers in the city in advance, and soon noticed the suspicious Zhu Xiesheng, which showed that the other party's strategy was successful! At that time, Taiyuan City was in trouble because of Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan!
But after Dugu Xin and the king entered the city, General Dugu Xin ordered the imperial army to concentrate all their efforts on protecting the academy and his party, and no longer care about the whereabouts of Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan. In this way, the plan of the mysterious man behind the scenes completely failed! Unwilling to be reconciled, the other party informed the Wang family guards of the news about Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan in a special way, hoping to use this to draw our attention back to the two of them!
At that time, these two people had become the abandoned sons of the mysterious man behind the scenes, but it was possible that Kang Changan knew the identity of the mysterious man behind the scenes, so he was intercepted and killed on the way back to the Wang family! And Zhu Xiesheng is just an abandoned son who knows everything but knows nothing. The other party gave this guy to us for free, and the purpose is probably to attract our attention and waste our time! "
Li Tai relied on some of the existing clues to give full play to his imagination. Not to mention, his ideas seemed a bit unreasonable, but after careful consideration, they all turned out to be reasonable and reasonable. Everyone couldn't help but feel horrified when they heard this, because If things are really as Li Tai guessed, then the mysterious man behind the scenes will be a bit chilling with his deep scheming, secretive methods, and cunning conduct!
They had stepped into the trap set by each other from the beginning!
"What His Highness said is reasonable, but it is creepy! If that's true, wouldn't we all fall into each other's scheme?"
Wang Yu frowned deeply and said worriedly.
Wang Liaoyuan said in a deep voice: "The person behind this is so cunning, we must catch him as soon as possible, otherwise if we let him do what he does, the consequences will be disastrous!"
Dugu Feiying said with a confused look on his face: "But now that Kang Changan is dead, our only clue is gone. How can we find the person behind the scenes?"
"It is actually not difficult to find the whereabouts of the mysterious person behind the scenes. The first step is to determine whether Kang Changan has delivered the weapons to the other party. If it is true, we can find the weapons by searching for them in the city. The whereabouts of the mysterious man behind the scenes!”
After thinking for a moment, Li Tai raised his head and looked at everyone and said.
"Yes! If you want to find out the person behind the scenes, you must first confirm whether the weapons from Chuji Iron Shop are actually delivered to the other party, and then search for the weapons to find the person behind the scenes!"
Li Tai's words made everyone's eyes light up. Dugu Feiying said excitedly: "Although the assassins who assassinated my eldest brother this morning all escaped, they left a lot of arrows and hidden weapons behind. I will Give those scattered weapons to the blacksmiths at Chuji Iron Shop to identify them and see if these things come from Chu Ji Iron Shop!"
When tracing Kang Changan's whereabouts, Dugu Feiying led his men to the Chuji Ironware Shop. Except for the shopkeeper, he arrested everyone in the ironware shop. Now he wanted to find the Chuji Ironware Shop. It is not difficult for a blacksmith to identify weapons!
"Okay! Now that we have lost all the clues, this is a good strategy!"
Wang Yu and Wang Liaoyuan could not help but nod in approval.
Seeing this scene, Dugu Feiying clasped his fists and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave first! Let's go back to the posthouse to find out the truth!"
"good!"
Everyone nodded.
Dugu Feiying turned and left.
As soon as Dugu Feiying left, Feng Bao walked in from outside. He cupped his fists towards Wang Liaoyuan and said, "Sir, a businessman came outside. He said he knew Kang Changan. Do you want to meet him?"
Wang Liaoyuan raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Do you know Kang Changan's businessman? Hurry! Bring him in quickly!"
They were investigating Kang Changan's identity, but they couldn't find it. Someone came to the door of his own initiative and said that he knew Kang Changan. Isn't this just because someone gave him a pillow when he was drowsy
There was also a hint of surprise and surprise on the faces of Li Tai and Wang Yu.
After a while, Feng Baotou brought in a middle-aged man wearing Hu clothes and a mustache, and bowed to Wang Liaoyuan: "Sir, this man is the businessman who claims to know Kang Changan!"
"Well! Okay! Go down!"
Wang Liaoyuan nodded and waved to Feng Baotou.
"yes!"
Feng Captou resigned.
The businessman in Hu clothes first glanced at the other two people in the room except Wang Liaoyuan. After seeing that Wang Liaoyuan had no intention of introducing him, he leaned towards Wang Liaoyuan and saluted:
"Kang Qu, a merchant from Kang State, pays homage to the Governor!"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole room was shocked!
A Kangguo businessman? This person actually comes from Kang State
"Are you from Kangguo?"
Wang Liaoyuan's eyes darkened, and he suddenly thought of a very bad possibility, so he quickly asked: "Could it be that Kang Changan of Chuji Iron Shop is also from Kangguo~?"
Hearing this, Kang Qu nodded and said, "Exactly! Kang Chang'an is Kang Qu's good friend, and he is also my brother-in-law, Prince Kang!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath! At the same time, I couldn’t help but secretly thought in my heart:
Trouble, big trouble! Who would have thought that Kang Changan was from Kangguo? And it also has something to do with the royal family of Kang State? Kang State is the suzerain state of the nine surnames of Zhaowu. Now that a person with such a special status as Kang Changan died in Taiyuan City without any explanation. For the government offices of Taiyuan City, what they will face next will be endless troubles!
