Shen Chen stared at Yang Shizhong and asked, "What do you know?"

Yang Shizhong was not at all panicked and said: "Yi Hong told me, maybe you can use it. Also..."

After a pause, Yang Shizhong said word by word: "Aren't you investigating the rebel case? The old fox said that this matter can be left to you. No matter what the outcome is, the court man will not blame you."

Shen Chen sat back and tried his best to suppress his emotions.

With this arrow as evidence, it at least shows that the person who assassinated Yang Shizhong and the person who blocked him on his way back to Beijing knew each other.

The murderers he found out back then were the Minister of Dali Temple and the Minister of War. At that time, he really suspected that they did not want him to return to Beijing to reveal the truth, so they wanted to kill him on the road.

But today is different from the past.

Now that they have surrendered to the emperor, it stands to reason that they will not do such a thing again.

Otherwise, the emperor would not be the first to bypass them, and the rest of their lives would be over.

Shen Chen knew that those two people were cautious and would never take risks when he was already going smoothly.

It seems that there is indeed another accomplice in the Yanmenguan case, and this accomplice is also involved in the rebellion. I can't stand it any longer.

From a certain point of view, the Jinling incident was a warning, and the culprit behind the scenes should not have emerged for at least a year to avoid being found by following the clues.

However, the murderer sent someone to assassinate Yang Shizhong, saying that he did not want Yang Shizhong to know the news Yue Qin wanted to tell him.

In the same way, the information Yue Qin knows is very important.

Important enough to shake the security of the murderer behind the scenes.

Shen Chen cleared his mind and asked, "Has the accomplice Yue Qin mentioned shown up?"

Yueqin's risk-taking plan to tell Yang Shizhong shows that she understands that someone wants to kill her and seeks protection from Yang Shizhong, so Yueqin will definitely be prepared.

For example, leaving information clues she knows to her accomplices.

Yang Shizhong shook his head: "My people monitored the inn day and night, but no one who met the conditions she said appeared. Now that her death has spread, I'm afraid her accomplices will definitely not show up."

"Not necessarily." Shen Chen's voice was slightly sharp, "Since this accomplice came to see Yue Qin, it means that he has chosen to be in the same boat as Yue Qin, and he will be a thorn in the side of the murderer behind the scenes. The murderer behind the scenes will also send someone to kill this accomplice. The accomplice wants to The best choice to survive is to seek your help. Therefore, this person will definitely find a way to see you."

Yang Shizhong said: "But it is not appropriate for the outside world to know my current state, otherwise something will happen on Jiangyou side."

In the short term, Yang Shizhong will not be able to show his face until the injury is healed and no longer visible.

Shen Chen looked at him and suddenly said: "My wife has very good medical skills."

Yang Shizhong was surprised: "Shen Zhonghan, you asked your wife to look at my injuries, aren't you afraid of getting her involved?"

Shen Chen closed his eyes and said, "I promised my wife that I would tell her anything. Now that I want to stay and investigate the case, I can't hide it from her. Once she knows, she will want to help even if I don't mention it. mine."

Yang Shizhong was a little hard to understand: "You won't send her away? I heard that when you were in Jinling, you went back alone."

Shen Chen said slowly: "I promised her that we would advance and retreat together."

Hearing this, Yang Shizhong seemed to not recognize Shen Chen anymore and looked at him subtly.

After a long time, Yang Shizhong finally said with certainty: "You have changed."

"People change."

Shen Chen thought of Lin Xi and his expression became gentler.

Then he returned to his normal routine. He stood up and said, "Give me one of your people. I go in and out of the Yamen and I don't like anyone to hinder me."

Yang Shizhong was well prepared and took out a token from his sleeve and threw it to Shen Chen.

Shen Chen caught it.

Yang Shizhong said: "This is an official order I carry with me. Anyone in the county who you think can be used can be deployed at will. Whatever the process and the means are, it's up to you. I, Yang Shizhong, only look at the results."

Shen Chen raised his eyebrows: "Then you must be prepared to be found."

Yang Shizhong was speechless: "I still need to recover from my injuries. Sir Shen, please do well and don't let too many people bother me."

Shen Chen waved his hands, turned and left.

The people waiting outside took Shen Chen away.

The room became quiet. Yang Shizhong looked in the direction of the door and suddenly laughed, "Shen Zhonghan, Shen Zhonghan, you really chose the wrong path. If you had known this, why didn't you give in?"

…

When Shen Chen returned, Lin Xi and Erbao were playing chess.

When Lin Xi saw that she was about to lose, she started to act rogue: "Er Bao, can't you just give in to mother? If this continues, mother will not be in the mood to sleep at night."

Erbao was helpless: "Mom, I have given you five steps."

Not only did Erbao lose, he also tried every means to lose, or he didn't win so beautifully.

Thanks to this, Erbao's chess skills improved by leaps and bounds.

He felt that if he went back to play chess with Dabao now, he would never lose again.

Lin Xi said: "Then you give in five more moves. If you can win in ten moves, then you really know how to play chess."

Erbao said righteously: "Mom, I am no longer old enough for you to deceive me."

"How can you be deceived!"

Lin Xi glanced at Shen Chen's return and immediately said: "Look, look, your father is back!"

Erbao glanced subconsciously and saw that Lin Xi had disrupted the chess game. He couldn't help but laughed angrily: "Mom!"

Lin Xi made a face and hurried to Shen Chen's side, "How was the conversation?"

Shen Chen saw Erbao looking at him angrily and aggrievedly. He smiled and said to Lin Xi, "It's not convenient for Yang Shizhong. I'll visit him another day. It's getting late. Let's go back to the inn first."

Lin Xi guessed that Shen Chen had something to say, so he nodded in agreement, coaxing Erbao not to insist on the chess game.

Erbao hummed: "Mom, next time you do this again, I won't have sex with you. Then only dad will be willing to have sex with you."

Lin Xi said proudly: "Then I might as well play against your father. At least I can still win a few games."

Erbao: "..."

Should I say it or not, I finally realized how superb my father’s chess skills were.

It’s so difficult to lose to your mother calmly!

Back at the inn, Shen Chen asked the waiter to prepare lunch and then opened another room.

Erbao saw that they had something to talk about, so he was sensible enough not to disturb them and went back obediently.

There were only two of them left, so Lin Xi asked: "What's wrong? Are you going to stay for something?"

Shen Chen nodded, pulled Lin Xi to sit down, and said, "I need to investigate the death case of singer Yue Qin."

"Why? Could it be that Yang Shizhong threatened you not to tell you the life story of Er Bao without checking?" Lin Xi frowned.

Shen Chen shook his head, "It's not because of this, but because the dead singer Yue Qin was related to the rebels in Jinling, and was also related to the Yanmen Pass case. We won't know what it is until we investigate."

When he heard the front part, Lin Xi didn't feel it yet; when he heard the back part, Lin Xi understood it instantly.

It was related to the Yanmenguan case, and Shen Chen really couldn't let himself stand by and watch.
