The person in black holding an umbrella outside the door of Huang Zhai was Su Jing. She knocked on the door knocker a few times and waited quietly. After a while, a voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
"I was sent by the prince to find Mr. Huang."
There was no sound inside. After a while, footsteps approached, the door opened a crack, and the old servant held a lantern and squinted: "Which young master?".
"Give this to Mr. Huang and he will know for himself." Sujing handed a letter to the old servant, pointed to the left with her hand, then turned and left.
Gone! Just gone!
What is she doing? The two people watching on the second floor of the inn in the distance were confused.
Huang Shu was also confused when he saw the letter in the old servant's hand. The old servant said that the person who sent the letter was a woman. He couldn't see his face, but he sounded young.
I opened the letter and read: Tomorrow at noon I will look outside the city gate.
There is nothing more than these few words. The handwriting is beautiful, and it must have been written by a woman.
After waving away the old servant, Huang Shu fell into deep thought. He nodded slightly for a long time with a look of admiration on his face. He was careful enough and prudent enough.
The old servant said that the woman pointed to the left, which was undoubtedly Zuo Mengeng. He must have something to discuss with him, but in view of various inconveniences, he had no choice but to act like this. After all, Zuo Mengeng did not know anyone around him at this time. How many spies are watching?
Moreover, he felt that this woman must have been sent by Liu Jingting. Although he was also under surveillance, he could go anywhere freely after all.
Only this old fox can come up with this method.
The two spies in the inn were still muttering about what kind of medicine the female expert was selling in the gourd, when they suddenly heard the window creaking. They were startled and quickly tried to take out the medicine. At this time, the window had been pushed open. When the window opened, a dark figure sat on the window sill: "Go to Wangshan Gate at noon tomorrow and help me identify the target."
After saying that, he jumped down and disappeared within a few seconds.
Good guys, the two spies were deceived and shocked. Let’s put aside their professionalism. Their skills alone are a few steps ahead of them.
The next day, the rain stopped, but it was still cloudy.
At half noon, Huang Shu walked out of the house, looked around, and then walked casually with his hands behind his back. After a while, he arrived at the Drum Tower. It was quite lively here, with hawkers and goons everywhere. He wandered around for a while, looking around, and then walked along the Walking all the way south along the main street, if you get tired along the way, you will find a tea shed to sit for a while.
When it was almost noon, we finally arrived near the Wangshan Gate Tower. Huang Shu was also alert. He walked around just to watch but no one was following him, but it was obvious that he was a novice in this regard. From the moment he went out, the two Dongchang Fanzi followed him all the way to the city gate, but the guy didn't notice it at all, and was still secretly proud of how careful he was.
There were many people inside and outside the city gate, people coming in and out, walking, carrying baskets, driving carts, pulling carts, riding horses and sitting in sedan chairs. Huang Shu slowly walked towards the gate. He didn’t know the specific location where he was meeting, let alone who he was meeting. To see him, Zuo Menggeng couldn't go out, it was either Liu Jingting or other confidants.
Moreover, he believed that this meeting was to discuss a major matter, otherwise he would not risk contact at this juncture.
While he was thinking about it, he suddenly staggered and was bumped into by someone. He turned around and saw a man covered in mud walking hurriedly out of the city. He didn't even say sorry. Huang Shu was furious. He wanted to move forward and think about it for a while. , but still couldn’t help but curse, “You uncultured mud-legged person!”
"Is it Mr. Huang?" At this moment, a woman wearing a bamboo hat and a black gauze came up to him and asked softly.
Huang Shu quickly nodded and looked around: "Did Mr. Liu ask you to come?"
The woman hummed: "Huang Gong, please come with me." She said and walked towards the door. Huang Shu quickly followed. Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly turned around. Huang Shu couldn't stop and bumped into her. Then he screamed and covered his head.
Chest: "You, you..."
This scream immediately attracted the attention of passers-by, and they all looked this way. Unexpectedly, they saw a man with a knife stuck in his chest, staggering, pointing at a woman, and saying something.
Holy shit, they killed someone, and everyone rushed up to watch the fun.
Su Jing took a step forward and pulled out the sharp blade from Huang Shu's chest, kicked him to the ground, and even dodged herself. Then she awkwardly got up and walked to Huang Shu, who was howling for help like a killing pig, and wiped him with the knife.
He touched his neck and made no sound.
The onlookers originally wanted to save her while watching the excitement. After all, the woman was relatively weak, but she was killed in the blink of an eye. However, it was not over yet. The next actions of the woman immediately frightened the onlookers.
His soul was so frightened that Su Jing actually cut off Huang Shu's head in front of everyone!
"The murderer, the Lu family of Huizhou Prefecture, avenged his father!" Su Jing carried Huang Shu's head, turned around in a circle and yelled at the onlookers, and then slowly walked out of the city.
Take a step forward and shout: "The murderer, the Lu family of Huizhou Prefecture, avenges his father!"
The people were shocked, and even the few officers and soldiers on duty at the city gate were so frightened that they didn't know how to stop her.
Seeing him walking out of the city step by step, the people were frightened and curious, and followed her out of the city. It is no exaggeration to say that there were at least a hundred people around Su Jing at this time.
The news of a woman's murder and beheading exploded in an instant near Wangshan Gate. More and more people rushed out of the city to watch the excitement. From dozens of people at the beginning, to hundreds, and then hundreds of people on three floors inside and outside.
.
Su Jing carried Huang Shu's head and walked to the river. She looked back at the city tower and the crowd of people watching: "The murderer is the Lu family of Huizhou Prefecture. My father was beaten to death by this evil man ten years ago. My mother jumped into the water and committed suicide. The orphan girl survived.
At the end of ten years, I will avenge myself, kill for life, and the orphan girl will die with no regrets. I hope you will tell me." After saying this, he jumped into the catfish trap.
The people watching were horrified. They couldn't help but scream in surprise and ran to the shore one after another. They saw only the rolling water of the river and no trace of people anywhere.
Good guy, this is a tragic story of a weak woman avenging her father and then committing suicide by jumping into the river. The people watching began to talk about various plots...
It must be that the man has done something outrageous before, and the woman has been seeking revenge for many years...
This man looks like a scholar, what is his identity...
Soon, Wuchang City exploded because of this incident, and everyone was shocked.
Soon, the man's identity came to light, and Huguang patrolled Huang Shu.
Damn it, he is an official, and this Huang Shu is from Huizhou Prefecture!
Then all kinds of plots started flying all over the place.
The news that Huang Shu was killed in the street shocked the city of Wuchang, and the most horrified person among them was Zuo Mengeng. When he heard the bad news, he was stunned for a long time and could not recover.
He immediately felt that there was something fishy about this matter and that it was coming after him.
However, after some analysis with Liu Jingting, I felt that it was just an accident and it was Huang Shu's personal grudge.
After all, if the imperial court wanted to cut off his right-hand man, the first thing he had to do was move his generals and soldiers, not his advisers. Besides, the imperial court only needed to remove Huang Shu from his post or investigate him. There was no need to kill him.
On the contrary, this will affect the situation and implement the actual situation.
The most important point is that if the imperial court wants to kill Huang Shu, whether it is done by Jin Yiwei or Dongchang, it is an extremely simple thing, and the method is also clean and neat. It will not be difficult to create various accidents or commit suicide.
.
But according to eyewitnesses, the woman was very frizzy and didn't even have any strength. She accidentally fell down when she kicked Huang Shu, and the whole process was clumsy...
So the two of them muttered for a long time, and finally came to the decision that there was no need for the imperial court to take action at this time, and it would not make such a big splash if it was necessary.
But no matter what, when Huang Shu died, he had a broken shoulder. Although he was heartbroken and depressed, he couldn't help but wonder why Huang Shu was killed and what his relationship was with the woman who jumped into the river and committed suicide...
