Suspect in Jinling

But Sha Xiangyue didn't respond, a pair of slender and delicate eyes looked down on Kuang Jian coldly and distantly, without expression or fluctuation.

They never tell the truth to each other, because they know that no matter how they communicate, their ideas will not overlap. They never spy on each other, because they are afraid that their slight reluctance will become a scam for the other party. They are duplicity, self-deception, Living together in a cocoon, in order to avoid harm, they directly bypassed all communication, but finally on this disordered rainy night, they couldn't bear it anymore, and they inevitably reached the most embarrassing step.

"Actually, you just finished with me, so I might say something..."

The wind is blowing, the rain is blowing, Sha Xiangyue laughed hoarsely, but didn't say any more.

The words have been made clear, and Kuang Jian said that he can accept him, as long as he abandons the dark and turns to the bright.

But Sha Xiangyue only thought it was ridiculous. They were talking about two things. Catcher Kuang performed his duties seriously and did things strictly. He didn’t care about him but only the information on him. There are pros and cons, but the more calmly he "does it for him", the more Sha Xiangyue feels that her indifference just now is like a joke. He looks down at his sharp and handsome face, letting waves of cold fatigue flood his limbs. Mukuo suddenly became tired, tired, and completely boring.

Sha Xiangyue's eyes were graceful and deep, and the change was so obvious, like a flame suddenly burned out, the afterglow condensed into frost, and then fell silent, cold, deep, and icy cold.

Kuang Jian suddenly lost all his composure, held Sha Xiangyue's left hand in a panic, and said in a trembling voice, "Xiangyue, don't be like this..."

That hand is the proof that Sha Xiangyue abandoned the Taiping Sect. He was injured because of saving him, and he dug out a large piece of forearm muscle with his own hands. Now the blood is blocked, and it is still cold to the touch. Kuang Jian heard his heart beating like thunder , fingers clenched tightly, only the knuckles turned white: "I can do for you what you want to do, and I can fulfill your wish for you..."

This is the most tenderness he can express, but such words sounded inappropriate to Sha Xiangyue, his fingers were stiff, he pulled out his left hand inch by inch, and sneered softly: "What do you know about my wish? Kuang Jane, do you really know me?"

Catcher Kuang always stares at him coldly with a defensive face, observes all his behaviors, suspects all his intentions, he has given him old punches, whipped him, provoked relations in his sect, and closely monitored who he came into contact with , he forced himself to accept his government's set, he would call other people's names after making out with him...

After only saying a dozen or so words, Sha Xiangyue couldn't go on anymore, thick grievances choked his throat, no matter how mocking he was, his eyes still betrayed him, a clear, as if Pained like a knife, he suddenly turned his head and hurriedly covered his eyes——

Kuang Jian suddenly felt palpitations, and instinctively rushed forward, clamping his hands, not allowing him to block them.

"Look at me... Sha Xiangyue, look at me!"

He had no intention of hurting him, those eyes that had lied to him countless times, if he tried to lie to him again, he would fall into it...but don't cry.He couldn't see him cry.

Sha Xiangyue's hands were cold and trembling slightly, like two sections of frost and snow that would never melt no matter how warm she was, Kuang Jian's eyes that were always cold and powerful suddenly became very low, with red eye sockets, focused and sad Looking at the person in front of him, "I don't know, I know..." Kuang Jian has never looked at others with such eyes in his life. There are bloodshot eyes like cobwebs in his eyes, those hot thoughts, those pressing in the bottom of his heart , extremely complex, extremely tortuous longing and care, he tried his best to hold back his emotions, his voice was trembling even though his tone was hard, "I know about the Hu Zhao case, I know about the Huai'an Mansion, I know about your father... I know about you and The origin of the Taiping Sect, I know that the Hubu case you are investigating is the unfinished will of your biological father, and... I know your original name..."

The lights were everywhere, and the water film in front of my eyes suddenly shattered——

Kuang Jian's eyes were glued to Sha Xiangyue's face, and his voice was firm, but he used the slightest breath, "I know your surname is Wu, and your name is Sisi... Xuande was born in three years, and is the son of Wu Guan, the prefect of Huai'an Prefecture. The fifth son. Wu Zaisi."

Sha Xiangyue trembled slightly, closed her eyes silently, a stream of light fell from the eye sockets, and dragged long, silent water marks on her cheeks.

Kuang Jian clenched Sha Xiangyue's weak fingers, and within an inch of distance, he lowered his voice hoarsely, "What you want to do, I can do for you, and what you want, I can also do for you Finished... Killing Xiangyue, you already have enough lives in your hands. Get out of there and stop."

Under the corridors of the palace, the night rain stopped.

Under the dark night, there are tall buildings row upon row. After the night rain, they show damp and dark outlines. It is difficult to see the specific shape of the palace, but it can be seen that the buildings are unusually majestic, and the eaves are tall and towering—— It must be hard for outsiders to imagine that the most dangerous enemy of the Ming Dynasty is actually in a place of wealth and prosperity like Jinling.

The man quietly listened to his subordinate's well-founded conclusion that "Killing Xiangyue has betrayed the religion", and he curled his lips indifferently. Brothers are just competitive, and that brat makes him feel distressed and envied. hatred.

"You don't have to worry about him, he won't be apostate... He and that little head catcher Kuang won't last forever either."

The man's voice is magnetic and deep, holding the thumb of his right hand with his left hand, gently twisting and rubbing at the smallest frequency, with a firm and calm posture.

He has raised Sha Xiangyue for more than ten years, and he knows his temperament and vision very well. He is a child with an extremely strong and tough psychological defense line. The more he can't get over it - he won't back down, no one in this world can shake him except himself.

Wu Zaisi...

Sha Xiangyue was stupefied for a long time. The ins and outs of a person are not seen on weekdays, but no matter where he goes, there is always a root in his heart. When he heard this former name again after 11 years, he suddenly realized , It seems to have a sense of being separated from the world.

"...Well", he looked at his slender, pale and bloodless hands, his voice was hoarse and hoarse: "I should be a dead person, going to hell with my parents."

For so many years, every time he thinks about the past, he is horrified, knowing that he can't continue thinking about it. He has never felt embarrassed in his life, but this situation, this situation and this person suddenly make him feel ashamed, as if this name has been squeezed into the palm of his hand Here, is the real criminal who really caught him.

Kuang Jian looked at him nervously. The torment of the two of them this night was like being tortured. Mental and physical, they all rolled on the bed of nails several times.

But, after a long time, Sha Xiangyue raised her head hollowly, and said softly to him: "Don't worry about me, I won't apostate."

Kuang Jian's eyes felt hot, and his heart felt cold.

Sha Xiangyue had deep-seated exhaustion in his eyes. He was really tired and had no strength. If this was an interrogation, he would have already collapsed and vomited everything up in such a state. Attached to the last silent attachment: "The fate of the past is already there...Kuang Jian, let me tell you that this is nothing... When my father was confiscated and treacherous, I resented him and felt dazed and awkward. Later, my adoptive father stopped me. , I didn’t want to join the Taiping Sect at first, but it was followed by the feeling of being saved.”

Sha Xiangyue took out her hand, shook her head, her tired eyes looked like a boundless abyss.

"Since you know my father, you should know that he is not a bad person. He is an honest and upright official, a harmonious husband and family, and he was still working on false tax cases during his lifetime. He is better than those righteous and corrupt officials I have come into contact with Thousands of times...You people in the public family always say that we are thieves and strong beams, heretics and evil, I don't understand, you are shouting at a sect that cares for the orphans and widows with justice in mind, why can those corrupt officials and thieves in the court who are really greedy for profit Live well?"

"Captain Kuang, where do you think the Doumu Temple in the west of the city is? The stronghold of the thief's nest, the place where the spoils are distributed?"

Sha Xiangyue's voice was dry, and she spoke every word very slowly, without any impassioned words, but every word struck the strongest voice in Kuang Jian's heart: "No, that's just a very ordinary Taiping Sect who accepts refugees. In this place, there are down-and-out women who are looking for relatives, wild children whose parents are working and no one cares about them, old women who sell yarn with nowhere to go, and boat people and Xu households on the Qinhuai River... Cheng Dabin said that the Taiping Sect will only deceive old women, Ask them to pay for the incense, yes, the Chengxi branch never cares about these people, Lizheng only dislikes these poor people making noise, these people barely survive by relying on some kind people to help them from time to time, don't you I saw them in the Doumu Temple because the temple was under repair. You can find Jin Chizi and recognize the stucco from the sole of his shoe because he has been leading people to repair it. The number of powerful believers in the Taiping Sect is very small. A part of them, most of them are ordinary people who have nothing to do. They are poor and sad, so they vowed to join the religion and take shelter in my altar. How did you think he knew me after selling my Zhu Shi?"

Sha Xiangyue doesn't want to talk about it anymore, Kuang Jian has his strong principle of not balancing good and evil, and his uncompromising character standpoint, so why didn't he kill Xiangyue?

He stared at him intently for a while, his eyes shifted, he leaned over, bent over and took the two official documents bearing the seal of Ying Tian Fu Yin, proving that he "has committed crimes and meritorious deeds", shook his fingertips peacefully, and said softly Said: "Don't do such a thing again, it's useless to me, I don't care about it, and I don't care."

Then, in front of Kuang Jian, he tore the two official documents to shreds.

The weather in April is bright and sunny, with a pleasant breeze.

Behind the quiet and quiet mansion in the north of the city, a middle-aged man with a slightly rich appearance walked through the back door nimbly. He was about 50 years old, with a slightly shy belly, and the smile lines in his eyes were pushed to his temples. He squinted his eyes and greeted the head of the house. Three points of Qi, three points of Liao Qi, three points of Liu Qi, followed behind him was Jiang Xingzheng with a serious expression and a tall and straight pine.

On the busy street in the east of the city, alcohol bills are flying in the air. Fourth master was led into a very decent private room through the back door of the restaurant. His blue clothes fluttered and his eyes were piercing. The people in the room had been waiting for a long time when they heard the sound , twisted his head and stood up, the red tattoos on his face flaunted wantonly, exuding a fierce aura all over his body.

The crisp birdsong chirped endlessly, and there was no one around. On the shady side of the restaurant, Kuang Jian Sha Xiangyue occupied the doorpost on the outer side of the door by himself, three steps away, each with arms crossed, without speaking.After a long time, the fourth master and Jin Chizi came out with smiles on their faces. The fourth master patted Jin Chizi's shoulder and seemed to have a good conversation.

"Second brother, fourth master, I have something to do."

Sha Xiangyue spoke coldly, expressing her position directly, saying that she did not want to be guarded by Ying Tianfu and wanted to go home.He couldn't control what Kuang Jianjian checked, nor could he control Jin Chizi's attitude, but he and Ying Tianfu wanted to overthrow the table and quit. They wanted to find whomever they wanted.

Kuang Jian raised his eyebrows slightly, and glanced at the fourth master without any trace. The fourth master's eyes flickered, and he immediately looked back at him intriguingly. It is more comfortable to live in, but the century-old foundation of the Yingtianfu Yamen has not been repaired, and the little craftsman is suffering, so come and help me.

Sha Xiangyue frowned slightly, and said seriously: "I'm very expensive."

Kuang Jian raised his eyebrows and glanced at Jin Chizi. Jin Chizi understood, and immediately laughed and put his arms around Xiangyue's shoulder: "Guiguigui! For the sake of Fourth Master and Kuang Butou, don't make too much of it. Give it to me." Ying Tianfu wipes out a change!"

Huge laughter erupted in the corridor outside the auditorium of Yingtianfu Yamen——

Jiang Xingzheng's parents came to see his future daughter-in-law Yu Daijiao.Jiang Xingzheng was tall and tall, and his appearance was as tall as pines and cypresses, but this couple had a lot of money, a big heart and a fat body, and they squinted until they lost their eyes when they smiled.Boss Jiang came all the way from Poyang, and originally wanted to invite Mrs. Ying Tianfu Yin Li to have a light meal, but thanked Yingtian Mansion for taking care of Jiaojiao. Mrs. Li was busy with work, so he declined, and the couple warmly invited the third master Fourth Master had a light meal, and when he heard that the two families had children, he immediately gave each child money.

The couple have a simple personality and are generous with their money. They gave Yudaijiao a racecourse manor in front of outsiders. They also said that to be a man, you should know how to repay your kindness, and you should be more charming. Please invite all uncles and uncles of Ying Tianfu to race horses as guests, and the relatives are far away. In Huai'an Mansion, he was really busy with official duties, so it's a pity that he couldn't see him this time.

Kuang Jian rubbed her temples, and took aside the gift that the Jiang family conveniently offered her.Sha Xiangyue said that she had memorized the layout and dimensions of Yingtian Mansion in her heart, and wanted to go home to make plans, but in a blink of an eye, there was no one in five days.

"Monks and Taoism are people who are determined to practice. They have a certificate issued by the government and accept the management of the government. They are different from ordinary people. Taiping Sect...they are just self-proclaimed believers, and they can talk about gods and ghosts in their mouths. They are engaged in some ministry activities, but they are not among monks and monks...

"In addition, they have no fixed place, no family, no foundation, and no ties, and the government cannot control them. Such a group of people gathered together is the easiest way to become a mob and a lunatic who commits crimes... When Daoist Luo Cheng was alive, there were believers in both the north and the south, and people worshiped his incense altar one after another. In the 18th year of Yongle, there was chaos in Shandong, the canal was interrupted, believers crossed the border, and the world was aroused... Master catcher, our government should protect it To avoid being harmed by the Taiping Sect and govern the west of the city, you dare not relax at all!"

"...Well." Kuang Jian felt a headache when he heard it. The person in charge of the West City Branch had memorized the written articles issued by the court very clearly. He raised his head: "How long has it been since the Shijiawan area has been repaired? I went there a few days ago. To catch thieves, the road is too muddy to walk on.”

"Ah," the latter looked respectful, and suddenly realized, "This is something that the Ministry of Industry has been urging. It's only because the personnel and materials have not been fully equipped. Our Chengxi Branch can only see it in our eyes and be anxious..."

Kuang Jian took a light breath: "Okay."

At this time, the fourth master pushed open the door from the outside with a serious face and strode in, holding a roll of official documents in his hand. The branch manager immediately pushed his hand to leave. "Master Chi from the Ministry of Industry, I remember his wife is good at gold and stone or good at playing cards?"

"Let's talk about it later, you look at this first."

The fourth master lowered his brows, unfolded the document that had been assigned to Ying Tianfu by the garrison office, and spread it out on Kuang Jian's desk. Kuang Jian looked at it carefully, and his expression suddenly changed: "This is...?"

"That girl is worth [-] yuan!"

Jiang's father laid out his fat body leisurely, and the carriage rolled. His movement made the carriage and horses slow down a step, "I've heard that my father-in-law and that Fourth Master Zuo are the ones who have been in the limelight all these years. Sheng, the character who is going to jump up again... Jiaojiao has this level of relationship, so it can't be wrong!"

Once people have money, they will want fame, fame and fortune. Before fame and fortune, their wish is vulgar and simple. They just hope that their son will be successful and their daughter-in-law will help them a lot. The location is favorable and the people are harmonious. As long as the son can seize the opportunity, he will not worry about paving the way to prosperity.

The majestic and spacious carriage suddenly stopped slowly in a quiet place. Father Jiang was puzzled, and was about to ask questions when he heard a deep and magnetic voice, slowly passing through the curtain of the carriage——

"The fruit of good and evil karma, it is up to me to avenge my grievances."

The voice was calm and calm, and it sounded frightening for no reason. Jiang's father was alert, and suddenly lifted the curtain of the car, but after seeing who was coming, he froze in the car.
