Chapter 63
"Has the general found Li Xia?"

On the wasteland between Luyi and Wanqiu, Shen Kai got off his horse and asked a question in a hasty tone.

Zhang Yanxiong said: "I can't find it, maybe it's already dead."

"Wu Lang don't want to hear 'maybe', even if he is dead, he still needs to see the corpse, you know how serious this matter is." Shen Kai would never dare to talk to Zhang Yanxiong like this, but at this time his face was serious .

"Anyway, I knew he would go to Wanqiu County, so why..."

"What if he doesn't go, how many people can we ambush in Wanqiu County? If there are too few, we won't be able to catch him; if there are too many, what if he spots it and scares them away?"

"Ha, just a little brat..."

"General!" Shen Kai became more and more anxious, sticking to Zhang Yanxiong's ear, whispered: "If the matter is stabbed to Han Ting, you and my whole family will die."

Zhang Yanxiong was a little disbelieving, and said: "A man from Song Dynasty, can he bring things to the court? Who will believe him?"

"It was he who planned the matter, and he knows all the details. Khan Ting doesn't believe the Song people, so can he trust us and other people of other races?" Shen Kaidao: "Wu Lang repeatedly explained, and he must work hard to find him, absolutely not Underestimate this son, remember to remember."

"I understand, but I have searched all over the 120-mile journey, but there is nothing. He may have starved to death somewhere."

"Goro will come over in person after finishing the Yingzhou affairs. If we can't even find a single person after he finishes dealing with the Yingzhou mansion, how can we explain? If Wulang really wants to come, even the commander-in-chief can't come to find him in person?"

Finally, Zhang Yanxiong's face was a little uneasy, and he said loudly: "I searched desperately, but I couldn't find it, so what should I do?!"

Shen Kai hastily saluted Zhang Yanxiong, sighed: "It's my tone that is a bit harsh, general don't blame me."

"It doesn't matter, it's all for business." Zhang Yanxiong sighed, and said, "Look for it, even if this wasteland is burned, I'll find him too..."

Luyi.

After Zhang Rou found her daughter, she did not return to Bozhou immediately, but took her to rest nearby in Luyi County.

And Zhang Wulang also sent his confidants to present him many things in detail.

After hearing all the events and details, Zhang Rou just murmured to herself.

"Jia Sidao is amazing. I thought he was finished this time, but he threw an abandoned son and revived him again. When it comes to court disputes, it's these Song officials who are so proficient..."

After feeling so emotional, Zhang Rou waved her hand and said, "Go ahead, let Wulang settle the matter in Yingzhou."

The determined tone quickly made people feel at ease.

After Zhang's family members left in the hall, Zhang Wenjing turned out from the back hall.

Seeing her daughter, Zhang Rou smiled and said, "Has my eldest sister rested?"

"It's nothing serious, so there's no need to rest all the time. What did father just say?"

"Haha, I said I wanted to kill that Li Xia, so I can vent my anger on you."

"He is a talented person, won't father recruit him?"

"There are no talents." Zhang Judao: "He made you suffer so much, and even killed your fiancé-in-law. Of course, Daddy will avenge you."

Zhang Wenjing was taken aback for a moment, as if she had just thought of Qiao Jianzhang at this time and felt a little inexplicable, she murmured, "But...I..."

"By the way, Li Xia's horse was found." Zhang Rou picked up a small cloth bag from her side and handed it to her, saying, "This is something from Qiao Ju's lifetime, do you want to keep it as a memory?"

Zhang Wenjing opened it, and inside were tokens, jade pendants, an empty purse, and her marriage certificate.

She put away the marriage letter, handed the bag back, and said, "Father clearly knew that I didn't like it at the beginning..."

Suddenly, a retainer made a report outside, saying that there was something important to report.

Zhang Wenjing had no choice but to retreat to the back hall holding the marriage certificate, but this time she was hiding behind a screen and eavesdropping...

"Marshal, a corpse was found in the outskirts of the county an hour ago. It was confirmed that it was our messenger. The clothes, messenger, and horses were all gone."

"what happened?"

"After investigation, it was Li Xia who did it. He turned back to Luyi County to rest for three days. No wonder Zhang Yanxiong couldn't find him."

"How did he get into town?"

Another old voice sounded in the hall, saying: "He entered the city with our team. At that time, he even talked to me and talked for a long time. The soldiers guarding the city saw him and thought he came with me. , did not investigate, this matter is my fault, my fault."

Zhang Judao: "It doesn't matter, Mr. is a man of learning, and he just came back from Kaifeng with me, so of course he doesn't know about this case."

Zhang Wenjing hid behind and listened, and knew that the person who spoke just now was a great Confucian of the time, Zhao Fu Zhao Renfu, who was originally from the Song Dynasty. Northern spread.

Zhao Fudao: "Recalling it now, the figure and appearance match, and the pale complexion must be the wanted criminal Li Xia, but I never thought of it at the time, that calm posture, well-mannered conversation... his appearance is rare in his life, Rare in life."

"To be able to wait for Mr. Jiang Han's praise, this little thief is worth his life." Zhang Rou said lightly.

Zhang Wenjing couldn't help thinking that even Mr. Jiang Han praised him.

Only Zhao Fu said again: "At that time he promised to visit again, but he didn't promise. I was tired and asked everywhere. Now that I found out about this matter today, I came here to tell the commander-in-chief clearly, and I also ask the commander-in-chief not to blame the people who work under him. , it's all my fault."

"Don't blame sir, it's that thief who is cunning..."

In the hall, Zhao Fu exchanged a few words with Zhang Rou, and retreated.

"Go on."

"Yes, after Li Xia entered the city, he pawned the copper comb first, and booked an inn to stay in. The inn he booked was only two streets away from here. Later, he was still buying medicine and preparing food in the city, presumably Today he healed his wounds, killed people and seized horses, and ran south."

Zhang Wenjing thought that he was not far away these few days, and her fingertips were slightly numb.

After Zhang Rou finished talking with her retainers, she turned out of the screen again, only to see Zhang Rou holding a copper comb in her hand, and couldn't help but let out a "huh".

Seeing her daughter's surprise, Zhang Rou handed over the copper comb and said, "Looks like Li Xia took it from Qiao Ju again...you little thief."

"Yes." Zhang Wenjing took it and asked in a low voice, "He fled to the south, but he wants to go back to the Song Dynasty?"

"Since we know that he is going to Wanqiu County, how can we still be deceived by him? Heh, this little thief is indeed very capable. If he hadn't been betrayed by Song Ting, maybe we would really be tricked by him again. It's a pity myself."

Zhang Wenjing bowed her head and did not answer.

Zhang Rou observed her daughter's expression, sighed, and spoke slowly again.

"But there is nothing to be sorry about, Yue Fei, Yu Wenxuzhong, Han Tongzhou, Yu Jie... Even these famous generals of Zhao and Song Dynasties have all ended up like this, the world is like this, let alone a little Li Xia?
In comparison, he is really nothing, he was just an abandoned son from the very beginning.Young, humble, and serving someone who shouldn't be serving, even if he has all kinds of supernatural powers, he can only die. "

As she said that, Zhang Rou slowly pressed her palm on her knee, as if she had killed an ant...

~~
Zhang Wenjing seemed to have lost her soul, and she was stunned after returning to the house...

"Eldest sister, this is the comb that I lost in the school library at home. Let me just say, it must have been picked up by Qiao Jianzhang."

Yan'er said, picked up the comb, and began to chatter.

"At that time, I thought that Qiao Jianzhang's family was poor, so he must have picked up my things and pawned them. I didn't expect him to keep them. It seems that he must have thought that you lost them, otherwise he must have pawned them... ...Eh, speaking of it again, in the end, this Li Xia took advantage of him, killing people and stealing goods, how disgusting, right? Eldest sister?"

"Ok?"

"Sister, did you hear that?"

"I heard that, why does Yan'er think that Qiao Jianzhang will pawn the copper comb?"

"He looks like that, um, how should I put it...he just looks like he has no confidence in front of A Lang and the gentlemen."

"Then why do you think Li Xia doesn't look like that?"

"Huh?" Yan'er opened his eyes, very confused, "When did I say..."

As if Zhang Wenjing had never heard of it, she looked towards the sky and murmured softly.

"Even when killing people to steal goods or pawning things, he must be upright and calm. He looks alienated and indifferent, but in fact he is invincible..."
