On the same morning, Huang Youbi ran for his life on Gaoyou Street, and Wen Tao also flipped over the back wall, landed directly in the yard of the next door, and escaped.
Wen Tao could of course stay and follow the official who came to arrest him to the government office, but the old housekeeper dispelled his thoughts after a few words.
"The gang leader died for no reason. Someone in the gang instigated a raid on the government office, and there was still a premeditated plan. Even if you have a hundred mouths, you can't tell for a while, as long as you enter the cell, maybe you will never be charged with this crime again. I can't wash it off!"
Wen Tao is impulsive, forthright and righteous. He has never faced such a situation before. He was moved by the words of the old housekeeper, and suddenly gave birth to infinite courage in the midst of grief, anger and distress.
After he escaped, the old housekeeper calmly instructed the servant to open the door, and looked at the official post in amazement: "Our young gang leader instigated someone to attack the official government office? How is that possible?"
The relationship between the Yan Gang and the local government has always been harmonious, and there is a hidden interest in it. However, once Wen Bao died, and the king of Zhou was eyeing him, he did not dare to be selfish, so he could only detain Wen Bao. The old housekeeper and some of the gang members interrogated meticulously, and always made an unselfish official-like article, which was good for dealing with the king of Zhou.
Zhao Wu Jiu came from Jiangnan, his whereabouts are secret and his methods are gentle, so the officials who knew that he was here could not help but secretly guess that he has fallen so far, and most of it has something to do with his current physical condition - the prince who leads the mighty frontier to walk but needs to walk. Wheelchair, I can no longer ride on the battlefield in this life, and my mood is mostly down.
However, in less than half a month, His Royal Highness Zhou Wang let the officials of the two Huaihe Rivers see his thunderous tactics, and he killed a bloody river, which was terrifying. His Royal Highness the King of Zhou led his troops to kill his own territory, and there were people who were still hanging on to beg and disappeared.
Bai Shiqi was lethargic for several days, and when he woke up, the officialdom of Lianghuai changed.
Over the years, she has made unannounced visits, and even led people to clean up the canal. She is used to the darkness of official collusion, and sometimes has a kind of resentment that has nowhere to complain. His Royal Highness Zhou Wang, who had a stubborn beard, stayed by the bedside, listening to Shu Changfeng coming to report the progress of the bandit suppression, and even pretended that he had hallucinations.
"... how many people were killed?"
Shu Changfeng didn't care: "I keep the important witnesses. It's just some unimportant scumbags. It's just that these people also have a lot of lives on their hands. There must be more than 200 people."
"Water bandits?"
Shu Changfeng looked strange: "It's a water bandit, and it's not a water bandit."
Bai Shiqi pursed his chapped lips with difficulty: "What... What do you mean?"
His Royal Highness Zhou Wang took the opportunity to help her up, patiently fed her a sip of warm water with a small spoon, gentle and virtuous, as if it had nothing to do with him who ordered the murder, and the most important thing in front of him was to take care of Bai Shiqi.
Seeing that his master had no intention of explaining, Shu Changfeng could only explain on his behalf: "My master has already sent people to search for the whereabouts of the water bandits, and also sent people to stare at local officials and clans, and found that someone had woven a net in Jiangnan, and even the Salt Gang All the people in the gang were involved and served him. And behind this group of water bandits, there is a master who supports them, not to mention looting past business trips, but also using the water bandits to exclude dissidents, even court officials dare to start." Yu Ang is the best example of.
"Who is so capable? Is it the Governor of Salt Road?"
Shu Changfeng smiled and said, "Huaiyang Hou Zongheng."
The Governor of Yandao can make money out of his own pockets in an open and honest way. I don’t know how many ways to get the money. The filial piety below will not be exhausted, so why take this risky trick
On the contrary, the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion has no real power, but these years have lived a luxurious life. If you want to maintain such a life, how can you maintain it if you don't find some other way to get money
Hearing this, the pain of Bai Shiqi's wound was relieved a lot: "... Is that Zong Heng who has a family feud with Old Man Huang? The Zong Heng that his son Zong Feng has strange hobbies?"
His Highness Prince Zhou's gloomy face finally showed a slight smile. He fed Bai Shiqi several sips of water and said with a smile, "You are right, that is the Marquis of Huaiyang."
Cha this Marquis of Huaiyang was just a piggyback, but to report the grace of Huang Youbi's treatment. Who would have expected such a big surprise to be found.
According to the original clues, we can only slowly piece together the reasons for the flood of bandits in the two Huai River, but after checking both ends, it is not difficult to find the tricks.
Bo Shiqi sat up abruptly with joy, but unexpectedly pulled the wound, grinned in pain, but smiled strangely: "This good news must be told to old man Huang!"
Zhao Wu Jiu has been busy cleaning up the water bandits, the Yan Gang, and local officials in Yancheng in recent days. All the people under his command were scattered, and he didn't send anyone to stare at Bai Zhenting, so he didn't know about Gaoyou.
At this moment, His Royal Highness Zhou Wang supported Bai Shiqi's shoulders and stuffed the person back into the quilt, and tucked the quilt for her, with a look of pity he had never seen before: "When will you get off your temper? It's been corrected, and the injuries are so bad that I almost..." He paused for a while, and finally said, "Don't worry, when you recover from your injuries, tell Mr. Huang the good news in person."
If it wasn't for the fact that Zhu Shoumei's whereabouts were not known, there was more than an hour's waterway from Yancheng, and the Clippers brought people back and forth to save their lives, I am afraid that Bai Shiqi would really not be able to hold on.
Zhu Shoumei boiled the medicine and brought it in. Seeing that Bai Shiqi woke up, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, handed the medicine to Zhao Wu Jiu with a stern face, and turned her head to go out.
Bai Shiqi: "Hey Shoumei—"
Zhu Shoumei didn't look back.
Bai Shiqi: "…"
Zhao Wu Jiu had a smile on his face and raised the pillow for her: "Come and drink the medicine." Feed her spoon by spoon.
Shu Changfeng was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would be in the way of the master, so he quickly withdrew after reporting the serious business.
During the period when Bai Shiqi was recovering from his injury, Zhu Shoumei almost became invisible, except when the pulse was prescribed and the medicine came in, the two met several times. Seventeen was at a loss, and wanted to ask him several times, but it was a pity that Zhu Shoumei didn't pay any attention to her after saving her life.
Shu Changfeng kept his feet on the ground every day, and every time he saw Bai Shiqi's depressed eyes, he felt a little pity for this young gang leader who was kept in the dark.
I still remember that day when Zhu Shoumei first heard that Bai Shiqi was seriously injured, her face was pale and she was taken over to treat the wound that had been hastily bandaged by His Royal Highness King Zhou. His Royal Highness Zhou Wang avoided."
Who knows that the master of his family is talking nonsense with his eyes open: "Doctor Zhu's words are wrong, the master of Bai has already betrothed seventeen to me, she and I are a fiancée couple, what can be avoided?"
Zhu Shoumei seemed to have been smashed in the head by someone, and she was stupid on the spot: "You are talking nonsense!"
Shu Changfeng has always been the master of his own family, but he never knew that he was also a good hand when he lied, so he actually pulled out a jade pendant from Bai Shiqi's waist and showed it to Zhu Shoumei: "This is the king's personal jade pendant, It's something we love, Dr. Zhu doesn't believe it, let's see."
Zhu Shoumei trembled to look at the wound, as if looking at the jade pendant even more, she felt piercing.
Zhou Wangdian did not change his color and put his personal jade pendant under the pillow of Bai Shiqi, and clenched the hand of Bai Shiqi who was in a coma with pity, afraid that it would not be enough to stimulate Zhu Shoumei: "We were going to wait for this. After fighting the water bandits, they got married when they went back, how could they know that she was injured."
Shu Changfeng opened his mouth wide, and stood behind the two of them dumbfounded, thinking that Doctor Zhu would suffer the loss of honesty.
If he pays a little attention, he will talk to the men on the boat a few times, or chat with Zhao Ziheng, and he will know that His Royal Highness's jade pendant is not something of love, but a lottery that Bai Shiqi won on the boat. .
It was just a crooked fight, but let His Highness use the topic to play it.
On the one hand, Shu Changfeng secretly doubted whether his master knew about Bai Shiqi's clues, but at the same time he felt that his doubts were a bit ridiculous - the master knew that Bai Shiqi was a woman, and that was later.
So, is it a marriage made by God
He guessed in his heart, but he didn't have time to rest. Seeing the master put on a posture of rooting in Bai Shiqi's room, all the orders could only be conveyed by him.
A few days later, rumors spread everywhere, saying that the leader of the Cao Gang, Bai Zhenting, was killed by the enemy, and that the leader of the Cao Gang, Bai Shiqi, was a woman. Chaos.
There was a lot of noise, all kinds of rumors were rampant, and it was hard to stop for a while.
