Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 600 Aquatic
In the dead of night, the lake sparkled in the moonlight.

The fast boat was docked beside a reed, and the lights on the boat had been extinguished.

Wang Mang looked at the lake water, quietly thinking about his next plan.

Suddenly, there was a flash of a figure beside him, and Wang Mang stretched out his right hand like lightning and grabbed the wrist of the person next to him fiercely towards his arms. The person screamed and fell to the ground. It was a woman.

Wang Mang was taken aback, and quickly let go of his hand.

Lying on the ground is Xiaoqing.

Wang Mang looked at Xiaoqing and asked angrily, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Qing jumped up and shouted: "You almost broke my wrist, why are you asking me?"

Wang Mang said: "Sneaky, who knew it was you."

Xiaoqing said: "You are really biting Lu Dongbin, I am afraid you will catch a cold, so I brought you clothes!"

As he spoke, he angrily threw the clothes in his hands on Wang Mang's head, turned around and walked towards the cabin.

Wang Mang didn't speak, he took the clothes off his head and put them aside.

Xiaoqing walked to the door of the cabin, turned around and said, "Why, you don't intend to apologize to me?"

Wang Mang looked at the center of the lake quietly, without saying a word.

Xiaoqing smiled, walked quickly behind him, kicked him hard and said, "Apologize to me quickly!"

Wang Mang glanced at her and said perfunctorily, "I'm sorry."

Xiao Qing said disappointedly: "It's really boring. If I ask you to apologize, then apologize. Just like a fool."

Wang Mang said, "Go back to sleep."

Xiaoqing smiled and said, "I won't."

As he spoke, he turned around and sat beside Wang Mang.

Wang Mang ignored her, still looking at the lake, thinking about something quietly.

Xiao Qing said: "Tomorrow we will be at Crouching Tiger Village."

Wang Mang nodded.

Xiao Qing asked, "Do you know what my father does?"

Wang Mang shook his head.

Xiaoqing then asked: "Do you want to know?"

Wang Mang shook his head again.

Xiaoqing snorted softly and said, "Then I want to tell you that my father is a private salt dealer."

Wang Mang nodded.

Xiaoqing sighed and said, "Do you know that it is illegal to sell salt without permission."

Wang Mang nodded.

Xiao Qing said angrily: "Are you a nodding chicken or a nodding duck? How do you know how to shake your head and nod your head, nod your head and shake your head."

Wang Mang turned his head and said, "You said your father broke the law and sold private salt. I understand."

Xiao Qing nodded and sighed, "In order to monopolize Huaibei Salt Market, he led his subordinates to fight and kill all day long, fighting with the government and salt lords, and offended many people. I persuaded him, but he didn't listen. .I just ran out in a fit of anger."

Wang Mang nodded.

Xiaoqing said: "No more shaking or nodding. You have to answer, understand?"

Wang Mang said helplessly, "Understood."

Xiaoqing sighed: "Oh, my mother died early, my father raised me and my sister alone, and taught me two martial arts since we were young. Don't think that my three-legged cat's kung fu is not good, my sister is very good But, it seems not as good as you."

Wang Mang smiled bitterly and said, "Understood."

Xiaoqing said: "It's a pity that my sister is also in the green forest business like my father. I heard that my father is still in charge of her."

Wang Mang said, "Understood."

Xiao Qing slapped him hard and said with a smile: "Did you fall into the well? Boom, boom, boom."

Wang Mang said, "Didn't you ask me to answer 'understand'?"

Xiaoqing waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, just listen."

Wang Mang nodded.

Xiao Qing said: "My elder sister is called Yun Gu, you will see her in the future."

Wang Mang was slightly startled, Yun Gu was actually Xiao Qing's older sister?

It's just that Wang Mang didn't show any clues on his face, so he nodded.

Xiaoqing looked at him angrily and said, "You always nod and shake your head, is it because you don't like what I say?"

Wang Mang shook his head and said, "No. I thought of something else."

Xiao Qing asked, "What did you think of?"

Wang Mang shook his head.

Xiaoqing said displeased: "Why do you keep talking half a sentence? It's tempting. Say it!"

Wang Mang glanced at her and said, "I'm thinking about what to do in the future."

Xiaoqing asked: "What should we do in the future?"

Wang Mang said: "I can't live in Crouching Tiger Village all my life."

Xiao Qing asked, "Why?"

Wang Mang shook his head: "It's even more impossible to be a fool for the rest of your life."

Xiao Qing was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I just said you were a fool just for fun, but in fact, you are not stupid at all."

Wang Mang smiled wryly and said, "I don't blame you. I'm just a fool."

Xiaoqing looked at him and comforted him: "Shuisheng, don't worry, one day you will remember the past."

Wang Mang let out a long breath: "I hope so."

……

The Governor's Mansion in Yangzhou has been changed into a deposed envoy's office, and Qianniuwei guards the gate closely.

In the second hall, Di Renjie paced slowly, thinking quietly.

Zeng Tai came in with a cup of tea, he put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Master, just now you did some tricks at the pier, Yang Jiuzheng was caught off guard, stretched, and couldn't answer your question at all.

In the end, this guy actually pushed the matter into the dark, which is really ridiculous. "

Di Renjie nodded slowly.

Zeng Tai said, "Teacher, in your opinion, is Yang Jiucheng involved in this conspiracy?"

Di Renjie shook his head slowly and said: "There is not enough evidence to make a judgment yet. But judging from his performance today, he is at least an insider."

Zeng Tai nodded and said, "Do you want to take further action against Yang Jiucheng?"

Di Renjie shook his head: "Don't act too hastily. After a few days of investigation, we have been able to ascertain a few points: First, the shipwreck in Hangou was not an accident, but a well-planned conspiracy by the gangsters.

Second, according to Mao San's confession, a man named Lin Yang recruited water ghosts, built a large warehouse in Beigou, and was responsible for smuggling official salt.

Third, the gangsters transported the official salt away from Yangzhou and hid it.

Following this thread, our next move is to first find out where the official salt was transported.

Secondly, it is necessary to find out Lin Yang's true identity.

Only when these two points are found can a major breakthrough be made in the case. "

Zeng Tai said: "I think that they transported the official salt from Beigou overnight to transfer the salt to a safe place. Maybe this place is where they hid the official salt."

Di Renjie said: "You are right, this point should be certain. I think things will start to look a bit after Di Chun comes back."

Zeng Tai nodded.

Di Renjie said: "Also, today I mentioned to Cui Liang about Lu Jiying's private burning of Li Han's body, but he didn't even ask about it. How did I know that? This means that before we arrived, he must have Say hello to Lu Jiying and conspire with him."

Zeng Tai was startled and said, "Oh?"

"Huh, this is a typical cover-up. I have a vague premonition that Li Han's death is closely related to the conspiracy in Hangou, and there must be something strange in it.

Therefore, it is imminent to investigate the cause of Li Han's death. "

Di Renjie said, "Oh, by the way, have you found out where the Hongtong Cabinet is?"

Zeng Tai said: "Master Feng went to arrange it himself, but there is no news yet."

Before the words finished, Feng Keyan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, opened the door and walked in: "Master Ge, Mr. Zeng."

Di Renjie stepped forward and said, "Lord Feng, have you found it?"

Feng Keyan nodded and said: "I found out, Hongtong Cabinet is in Yongchang Square in Yangzhou City."
