Chapter 33 Pay tolls to both ends of the bridge!
Mo Shili, who climbed over the wall, immediately caught sight of Yang Yu in front of him and immediately chased after him.
And deep down in my heart, I was wondering how long I would go back, and how I would find the letter left by ‘Ye Liuxiang’.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a heart-rending cry for dad coming from the yard behind me.
Without thinking, Mo Shili turned around and walked towards the courtyard.
When Mo Shili climbed over the wall again and saw Zhao Changshou's body, he was immediately shocked.
Mo Shili guessed that Zhao Changshou and his son Zhao Jiadi would use all means to contact his backers, and they would even use drastic means.
For example, if you hurt yourself, ask to see a doctor, etc., you can take the opportunity to send a message.
However, he never thought that the Zhao family and his son could be so ruthless and so cruel!
He would actually die to convey the message!
Suddenly, the look in Mo Shili's eyes became dangerous.
"no!"
"A person who is so ruthless and cruel is too dangerous... we cannot keep him!"
Immediately, Mo Shili made a decision.
However, the sound of clothes breaking through the air in his ears made his eyes quickly converge.
The next moment, Yang Yu's figure fell next to Mo Shili.
Seeing Zhao Changshou being held by Zhao Jiadi, Yang Yu was also shocked.
"Two adults, this is Ye Liuxiang!"
"He killed my father!"
Zhao Jiadi burst into tears. Before Mo Shili could wait, Yang Yu asked and took out Ye Liuxiang's letter.
Yang Yu took the letter and looked at it carefully.
Mo Shili looked at Zhao Jiadi.
The other person's sadness does not seem to be fake.
But this is not important. What is important is that since the Zhao family and his son chose to die to deliver the message, they have determined that this method of delivery is the fastest and safest.
That……
Who will receive this message the fastest and most safely?
While thinking about it, Mo Shili took the note from Yang Yu. After pretending to read it, he shook his head at Yang Yu and said he didn't notice it.
At this moment, the two soldiers guarding the door also arrived.
The two of them also checked Zhao Changshou's body and the note, but found nothing.
Subsequently, the two expanded the scope of their search.
Until the Yamen policemen arrived with Wu Zuo, nothing was gained.
When a murder case occurs, according to the law, the body must be taken to the Yamen. The body can only be collected by the family members until the murder case is solved or a certain period of time has passed.
Of course, if you want to collect the body faster, you will have to spend a few more.
Especially when the leading agent is Zhao Zhongxin, such expenses will be much higher.
"Don't worry, we will take care of your father's body according to regulations!"
As Zhao Zhongxin said this, there was a hand hidden under his sleeve.
When a piece of Yuanbao fell into his palm, Zhao Zhongxin felt the weight, and a smile immediately appeared on his face, and his attitude became a bit more affectionate.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, I will definitely take good care of Mr. Zhao's body, and I will never let snakes, insects, rats, or ants hurt him!"
After saying that, Zhao Zhongxin led others to carry Zhao Changshou's body and left.
Mo Shili, hiding in the shadows, stared at Zhao Zhongxin.
Then he looked at Zhao Jiadi again.
It was different from the panic and panic before.
At this time, Zhao Jiadi was quite calm, as if a stone had fallen from his heart.
Is the person behind this Zhao Zhongxin?
Probably not!
Mo Shili knew Zhao Zhongxin quite well.
Although he is greedy for money and cheats, he is fierce and has no courage.
How could such a person be the person behind the Zhao family and his son?
Of course, the most important thing is that Zhao Zhongxin is a small official and there is no way he can become the backer of the Zhao family and his son!
But Zhao Jiadi's relaxation is also real.
Then there is only one possibility left——
Zhao Zhongxin is the bridge that delivers the news.
One end of this bridge connects the Zhao family, and the other end is...
Chang'an Old City Yamen!
Thinking of this, Mo Shili narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Yang Yu.
It happened that Yang Yu also looked at him at this time.
The two people's eyes met and they understood immediately.
The two of them immediately followed each other with a tacit understanding.
…
"Night shift business trip, great fun!"
"Five taels!"
"hey-hey."
Zhao Zhongxin handed in his job and strolled out humming a tune.
Of course, if you have money, you can no longer sit in the yamen.
Moreover, I just went on a business trip, and if I have another errand, I have an excuse, and other people will help me take care of it.
Therefore, Zhao Zhongxin changed his clothes and prepared to go to Zhuque Street.
How can I be as pretty as my sister when I'm blowing air at night?
Just as he was thinking about it, Zhao Zhongxin felt a figure flash in front of him.
Then, my left eye started to hurt.
Before he could recover, his right eye also hurt.
Then, just as Zhao Zhongxin was knocked dizzy and fell to the ground after being punched twice, a hand reached into his arms, and the five taels of silver that had not been warmed by the kick were taken away along with his own money bag.
.
When Zhao Zhongxin came to his senses and barely opened his swollen eyes, there was no one around!
Touching the empty chest again, sadness immediately arose in my heart.
"My money!"
Zhao Zhongxin lowered his voice and howled.
"That's a lot of money!"
After Mo Shili collected the five taels of silver, he looked at Zhao Zhongxin's money bag, and found that there were nearly three taels of scattered silver in it.
This money, to a certain extent, can be considered 'above and above board'.
In other words, Mo Shili's identity can use this money.
Of course, he definitely didn't find Zhao Zhongxin for the money.
This is to completely rule out the suspicion that Zhao Zhongxin is the person behind it.
Yes, that’s it!
Mo Shili firmly believed in his heart, and then walked back to Yang Yu's hiding place with calm eyes, and said softly.
"I tried it out, it's not that guy."
"Um!"
Yang Yu nodded and did not pay too much attention to Zhao Zhongxin.
However, he highly recognized Mo Shili's caution.
Just when the two of them entered the county government office, Mo Shili suddenly asked, 'What if Zhao Zhongxin is pretending?', and suggested that he go and test it out.
To be honest, Yang Yu was shocked by the hypothesis put forward by Mo Shili.
Because, this is not impossible.
Logically speaking, Zhao Zhongxin is just a small official and cannot be the backer behind the Zhao family and his son. However, the world is full of wonders. Yang Yu once recorded a secret from the previous dynasty in the military archives building - he was once the No. 1 emperor in the world.
The leader of a killer organization was a eunuch from the previous dynasty, and he was also a low-ranking eunuch.
The other party used various means to hide themselves and cleverly took advantage of everyone.
If it weren't for a moment of greed, no one would have discovered it.
Therefore, there is no guarantee that Zhao Zhongxin is not such a person.
However, now that it has been ruled out, there is no need to pay attention to it anymore.
Yang Yu looked at the study room in the backyard of the county government office.
There, Diao Zuoxiu, the magistrate of the old city of Chang'an, was lighting an oil lamp and reading a sage's book.
Diao Zuoxiu, who is dressed in commoner clothes, has a thin face and deep facial features. When turning the pages of the book, he is focused and meticulous.
The life of Diao Zhixian came to Yang Yu's mind.
Fang had learned a lot from others. He was the top scholar in high school in the old dynasty. When the new dynasty was just established and he was idle at home, he was hired again. However, because of his rigidity, he stayed in the position of county magistrate of the old city of Chang'an for ten years.
, not allowed to be promoted.
The reviews are also average.
At least I wasn't called a dog official.
Of course, he won't be praised as a blue sky.
"Could he be the person behind the Zhao family and his son?"
Yang Yu guessed in his heart, but there were footsteps outside the courtyard not far away.
A servant walked quickly into the backyard.
Knocked gently on the study door——
Bang, bang!
"Sir, it's me."
The servant said softly.
Diao Zuoxiu, who was disturbed, frowned slightly, but said without taking his eyes off the book.
"Come in."
The servant opened the door carefully and walked in.
He lowered his hands and stood beside Diao Zuoxiu, lowering his voice.
"Master, Zhao Changshou is dead."
"oh?"
Diao Zuoxiu finally put down his book this time and looked at his servant.
The servant immediately recounted what had just happened.
After listening, Diao Zuoxiu pondered for a moment and said directly——
"So that's it!"
"Go, send someone to kill Zhao Jiadi!"
