Chapter 652 The sky has eyes
At this time, Wang Mang suddenly remembered something, he took out the letter from Lin Yang to Ge Tianba from his pocket, and handed it over: "My lord, please read this letter."

Di Renjie quickly took it, unfolded the letter, took a closer look, and said to Zeng Tai in surprise: "This is a letter from Lin Yang to Ge Tianba."

Zeng Tai was also startled, and hurried forward, and the two quickly read the letter.

Zeng Tai said: "The private salt sold by Crouching Tiger Village is indeed the official salt that went missing after the shipwreck in Hangou!"

Di Renjie nodded and said, "This is certain now. Jing Yang, where did you get this letter from?"

Wang Mang said, "It was found under Peng Chun's pillow.

Peng Chun was ordered to deliver salt to Crouching Tiger Village, but the strange thing is that he didn't drive the large salt barge into the village, but parked in Feiyunpu.

A few days later, the salt boat was hijacked, and Ge Tianba ordered me, Yuan Fang and Xiao Qing to investigate the matter..."

Di Renjie asked, "The salt boat was hijacked?"

Wang Mang said: "Exactly. After several days of follow-up and investigation, we found out that the one who robbed the salt boat was our friend—the salt lord Pang Si, and the mastermind behind it was Ge Tianba himself."

Di Renjie was taken aback, and exchanged a glance with Zeng Tai, "Why did he rob his own salt boat?"

Wang Mang said: "This is exactly the purpose of our coming to Xuyi."

Di Renjie and Zeng Tai looked at each other, and a trace of doubt flashed in their eyes.

Wang Mang said: "My lord, it's just that when Pang Si transported the salt to Taiping Town, he was killed by the army, and the salt was also taken away by the army."

"The salt was taken away by the army?"

Di Renjie frowned

Wang Mang nodded: "Exactly!"

Di Renjie said: "This must be a trap set by Ge Tianba. It is understandable that he borrowed a knife to kill Pang Si. But why did he report to the government?
Once the salt falls into the hands of the officers and soldiers, it will be confiscated. Wouldn't this be a loss?

In Huaibei, a place where the price of salt is like gold, is it worth it to lose such a large amount of salt in order to kill the salt owls? "

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang looked at each other: "My lord, this is exactly what Mizuki and I can't figure out."

Di Renjie, Wang Mang, and Zeng Tai looked at each other, and said, "Okay, Mizuki, let's talk about these things later."

Wang Mang nodded: "My lord, it's going to be dark soon. There may be some movement in the Sun family tonight. Let's settle this matter first before discussing the matter of salt."

Di Renjie, Wang Mang, and Zeng Tai looked at each other and said, "Shuimu, then we won't bother you. You should rest well first, and I will find a way to heal you."

Di Renjie, Wang Mang, and Zeng Tai turned and left the room.

When he came to the gate of the east courtyard, Di Renjie stopped suddenly, raised his forehead with his hand and said in a low voice, "The sky really has eyes!"

As he spoke, he knelt down slowly and bowed deeply to the sky.

Zeng Tai and others on the side were already in tears when they saw this situation. Seeing this, Wang Mang hurried forward and reached out to help Di Renjie: "My lord!"

Di Renjie sighed deeply: "This is the first time in my life, Di Renjie, that I sincerely worship God! The sky has eyes, the sky has eyes!"

As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes.

Zeng Tai also sighed: "Teacher, when you heard the sad news about Jingyang and Yuanfang, you didn't eat for three consecutive days, and blamed yourself for the pain, what a pain!
Students understand your mood very well.To be honest, why aren't we like this?

But today...it's great, it's great! "

Di Renjie wiped away the tears on his face with a smile and said, "Yes, yes."

Zhang Huan beside him said with a smile: "For Mr. Wang Houye and General Li are not dead, this is happier than solving any major case!"

Di Renjie smiled.

Wang Mang also laughed.

Di Renjie walked forward slowly with Wang Mang and Zeng Tai while talking.

Zeng Tai worried: "Teacher, now Yuanfang has lost his memory, what should I do?"

Di Renjie seemed to be still immersed in relief and joy, and said: "Let me think about it, there will be a way."

Suddenly, Wang Mang said: "I know a way, that is to let Yuan Fang re-experience the scene at that time, and restore the memory through strong external stimulation, but..."

"Just what?"

Di Renjie and Zeng Tai stopped in their tracks.

Wang Mang sighed: "It's just very difficult to succeed, and it might cause damage to Yuan Fang's memory."

Di Renjie and Zeng Tai sighed and did not speak.

……

There was silence in the small street, and a distant bell was beating Chu Geng.

The door of Sun Ji's silk shop was tightly closed.

Sun Xiwang fell asleep on the couch, snoring like thunder.

Yan Shi wandered around the house restlessly. Suddenly, she thought of something, and she couldn't help being secretly startled.

She pondered for a moment, came to the bed, and softly called: "Xiwang, Xiwang."

Sun Xiwang snorted twice and turned over.

Yan Shi gritted her teeth, walked quickly to the table, and blew out the lantern.

Then gently opened the door and walked away.

Sun Xiwang who was on the bed suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and got off the ground, and followed Yan Shi away.

Yan Shi didn't notice that someone was following her, she quietly came to the back door, opened the door a crack and looked around.

Seeing that there was no one around, he squeezed out from the crack of the door, closed the courtyard door with his hands back, and rushed across the street to another street.

From the shadow of the corner of the house, Di Chun, Zhang Huan and the policeman Wu Touer came out.

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps from behind.

Sun Xiwang ran over, and when he saw the three of them, he hurried forward and said in a low voice, "She must be at Mama Chang's house. Let's go!"

Di Chun nodded, and the four of them tiptoed after Yan Shi.

The streets were dimly lit.

Yan Shi ran to a door and hurriedly knocked on the door.

After a while, the door opened a crack.

Not far away, Di Chun and the others had followed, hiding behind a house, sticking their heads out to look into the street.

I saw Yan Shi talking anxiously to the people inside the door.

Sun Xiwang said softly: "This is Chang's mother's house. I have suspected for a long time that this old godly woman built a bridge for the adulterer to commit suicide."

Di Chun pondered for a moment and said, "Go back right away, don't let Mrs. Yan find out. From now on, you can report to us about the family affairs, and we will be responsible for the surveillance outside. Otherwise, it will be bad if you startle the snake."

Sun Xiwang nodded.

Di Chun said, "Let's go!"

Sun Xiwang turned around and left quietly, while Di Chun and the others continued to monitor the movement in the street.

The door was closed, and Yan came towards the hiding place of the three of them.

Di Chun waved his hand, and the three turned around and hid behind the house.

Yan Shi hurriedly ran over.

Di Chun said softly to Zhang Huan: "Zhang Huan, you should go back to Sun Xiwang's house and watch over. Mr. Wu and I will wait here to see what happens."

Zhang Huan nodded and left.

He had just left when there was a knock at the door in the street, followed by footsteps, and a woman in her fifties ran to the street corner and headed east.

Di Chun and Captain Wu looked at each other and said softly, "Follow and see where she's going."

The two sneaked around and followed the woman to the door of a house. The woman slammed on the corner door vigorously.

Behind the big willow tree not far away, Di Chun and the two looked at her quietly.

With a creak, the corner door opened, and a servant came out.

The woman said something, the servant opened the door, and the woman walked in quickly.

Behind the big willow tree, Di Chun asked softly, "What kind of place is this?"

Wu Tou'er replied: "This is He Yuan, the home of He Wuqi, a great salt merchant in the city."

Di Chun pondered for a moment and said, "I'll stay here and continue to monitor. You go back and report right away."

Wu Touer turned around and left.
