Chapter 367
With the limelight of Jiang Er Ge, the undergraduate martial arts jubilation did not attract much attention. Cao Yubao was only familiar with Lang Chao, Tanhualang, and he didn't know his origin at all. However, since he chose to join the Yulin Guard, he should have a connection with Yulin Guard. Cao Yubao guessed, "He is the nephew of which general of the Yulin Guard?"
"Impossible. There is no general with the third rank of Yulin Guard, and no general's wife has the surname Lang." Before Chai Yian could speak, Bai Qing took the conversation. Bai Qing's father, Xiangyi Hou, Bai Chengguo and his legitimate brother, both worked in the Yulin Guard, so he knew the situation of the Yulin Guard. "Lang Chao was sent to the Yulin Guard by the Ministry of War. We don't know what he has to do with the Ministry of War."
Cao Yubao's father worked in the Ministry of Works and was not very clear about the affairs of the Ministry of War, so he asked Chai Yian directly, "Second brother, don't sell lawsuits, but tell me what Lang Chao came from."
Chai Yian shook his head, "I don't know either. But remember, this person cannot be matched."
"Why?" Cao Yubao and Bai Xian asked in unison.
They were all their own brothers, and Chai Yian did not hide it from them, and said in a low voice, "Because what he caught was not the Khitan spy who stole the Great Zhou to spy on military affairs, but the people of my Great Zhou."
"Hiss--" Cao Yubao took a deep breath, "Seriously?"
Bai Wei also asked with a serious expression, "How did the Fourth Brother know? What is the truth about this?"
Chai Yian did not say it directly, only reminded the two brothers, "I said that, and you just heard it, and we never said anything about this door. In short, if we can avoid Lang Chao, we will avoid it, sooner or later, he will not die well!"
Killing the people for no reason is a serious crime. Did Lang Chao eat the courage of Xiong Xin? Who helped him turn the black and white into a military merit? How many people know about this? Why didn't anyone say anything? The more you think about it, Bai Qing and Cao Yubao feel like they are trapped in a fog. They really want to catch a few hands, tear the fog and slap it apart.
Mr. Jiang Ershi heard that Lang Chao was the same after he was promoted. Although he had known that the officialdom was inseparable from the past, this incident happened to him, which still made Mr. Jiang Ershi very unhappy. If he was unhappy, he had to drink and enjoy himself. Mr. Jiang Ershi walked to the Tingshu Building to have fun. The storyteller in the building has been talking about the book of the wanderers in the world recently, among which there were many heroes in the Green Forest who roared when they saw unfairness, which sounded very refreshing.
Mr. Jiang went to the Tingshu Building, sat down next to the railing outside the second floor private room reserved by the shopkeeper for him, and lowered his head to listen to the storyteller in the hall downstairs.
A black-faced guy brought a tea tray to Mr. Jiang. Jiang Bao had never seen this guy before, so he carefully picked up his tray and asked him to wait aside.
When Jiang Bao was presenting tea for Erye, Erye Jiang casually raised his eyes and saw the bookstore guy standing next to him. His complexion made Erye Jiang feel quite nostalgic because when he first recognized his son, his son was like this, "Are you new here?"
The black-faced guy, who is about thirty, nodded and bowed.
Mr. Jiang could not recite the letter, but he had a good memory. He ate tea and asked, "Where did you do things before, I don't seem to have seen you in Kang'an City."
The young man pointed at his mouth and shook his hand again.
"Can't speak?" asked Mr. Jiang.
The young black-faced mute man nodded vigorously.
He couldn't speak but could understand that this must not be a natural mute. However, Mr. Jiang didn't care about how he was mute, so he waved his hand to let him retreat and continue listening to the book.
The black-faced mute obediently carried the tray back to the kitchen of the Tingshu Building, carefully scrubbing the tea set in the wooden basin. If you look carefully, you will find a piece of scar that had just been scabbed and thick with fingers on your arms, as if it was tied up by a rope.
Mr. Jiang applauded and listened to the story of the heroic hero and righteousness. His depression dissipated a lot. When he got up and was about to go home, he saw Uncle Qiu running excitedly, and it seemed that something good happened.
After Uncle Qiu saluted and sat opposite him, Mr. Jiang lowered his voice and said in a low voice, "Uncle Qiu, are you a little exaggerating like this?"
Uncle Qiu still pretended to be happy and said to Mr. Jiang in a low voice, "Mr. Second Master, only in this way can the people in the secret believe that the case we are investigating has made significant progress."
Mr. Jiang also pretended to be overjoyed, but felt it was unreliable, "How does this work?"
"The result will be decided soon." Uncle Qiu was full of confidence, because he had been investigating the case for several months and had basically set the target. This bait was specially placed for them. As long as the bait was large enough, there was no need to worry about not taking the bait. Uncle Qiu smiled brighter.
Mr. Jiang advised Uncle Qiu countless times, "When the case is solved, you will always remove the scars on your face?"
"Okay, I'll listen to the second master." Uncle Qiu replied with a smile, "I will continue to prepare. The second master just wants to marry the wife with peace of mind. Leave the matter of capturing the thief to me."
Mr. Jiang nodded and watched him go downstairs excitedly.
When Uncle Qiu arrived downstairs, he happened to see a black-faced mute walking out of the kitchen with tea. Uncle Qiu passed by him and got on the carriage outside the Tingshu Building. Then he said to the people around him, "Go and inquire about the origin of the black-faced servant just now."
The driver who was chasing the car whispered, "Do you doubt his origin?"
Uncle Qiu nodded, "His hands cannot be ground out with linen. I suspect he is from the northwest and has something to do with the people who were killed a month ago."
Shortly after Uncle Qiu left, Mr. Jiang Erwei pretended to be very urgent and happy, and quickly walked downstairs. The black-faced man followed the shopkeeper and sent Mr. Jiang Erwei on the horse. The black-faced man returned to the Tingshu Building with a calm expression and continued to do things.
The next day, Mr. Jiang Er had to do what he wanted to do when he got married by his mother. He felt a headache when he heard it, so he simply asked Chai Yian and a few of them to go to the Tingshu Building to listen to the books to relieve his boredom.
Just as the few people were listening with relish, Zhou Qiwu, a civil servant in the Xicheng Military and Ma Siyao, came to him with a stack of official documents and asked Mr. Jiang to use a seal. After the yao affairs were handled, Zhou Qiwu quickly walked out and rushed to hand over the documents to Jingzhao Mansion. If the documents were paid too late, he would have to be scolded by the prefect of Jingzhao Mansion.
When Zhou Qiwu walked down with the clerk in his arms, he saw the black-faced servant wiping the table in the Tingshu Building at a glance - because his skin color was so eye-catching.
Although he took a quick look, Zhou Qiwu felt that the man looked familiar, but before he could think too much, he hurried out of the Tingshu Building and ran to Jingzhao Mansion to hand over the documents. After handing the documents to his elder brother Zhou Qiwen, Zhou Qiwu walked out of Jingzhao Mansion lightly with nothing to do. He suddenly remembered the black-faced servant just now. His eyes became wider and wider and he ran towards the Tingshu Building quickly.
When he ran to the Tingshu Building to search everywhere, Jiang Bao came down from the building, "Brother Zhou, the second master asked Xiaodi to ask what you are looking for, have you lost your wallet?"
