Jia Cong's disagreement made Ms. Ding feel cold. Ms. Ding was shocked and pointed at him and said, "You...you..." twice. Jia Cong tilted his head and said, "Explain me. The reason I didn't kill you earlier was because
I mistakenly thought that you were the kind of person with high ambition and low luck. Slowly suffering to death would be a more interesting retribution. I just found out a few days ago that Miss Ding is actually a dangerous person. In this case, there is no way to keep her.
.”
Lu Sangu said from the side, "I asked you why you endured it for so long."
"It's not because Ding Wangji is useful to the prince." Jia Cong kicked him away from the sword, wiped the blood from the sword on the body, raised his head and bared his teeth at the two sisters-in-law who served Ding.
A smile; the two men screamed in fright and ran out.
Chen Ruijin asked, "How do you know it was Fang Yong's wife who was instigated by her?"
"I have long suspected that someone was seducing that woman." Jia Cong said, "She didn't even know that she was beaten for the assassination of Qiu Lianghui. Being divorced by her husband as a concubine was just a change of name. She is obviously a stupid and passive person.
, she couldn't think of the idea of assassinating important officials of the Shu Kingdom. If someone coaxes her, he will do it right." Then he looked at the Ding family underground. "Their mother and son have contacts with Fang Yong. Furthermore, Ding Wangji
With his identity, there is no way he can be trusted by the King of Shu; as soon as Ziyi Ji came out, even the way to assist one of the sons of the King of Shu was blocked. The King of Shu is a general prince and has few civil servants at hand. Qiu Liang and Ding Wangji are both top-notch in intelligence.
, it is not easy to find talents of the same level. With Qiu Liang gone, Ding Wangji can make further progress."
Jia Xu asked with a smile, "How do you think she found her way to Jiuzhaigou?"
"I don't know." Jia Cong said, "Maybe it was the idea of the leader of the bandits."
Jia Xu nodded and said, "If there are enough spies, following in turns is the safest and least likely to be noticed. We are walking along the mountain road, and people in the mountains will inevitably not pay attention."
Jia Cong looked at Ding again and sighed, "Actually, I couldn't bear to kill her, but also because of her superb piano skills. It would be a pity to kill such a good professional piano player. If she concentrates on studying the piano skills, there is no guarantee that she will become a great master."
Jia Xu said, "She has already become a great master, but the songs she plays are not pleasant to the ear, so it is better not to play them."
Jia Cong shrugged, "That's right. It's better not to have a master who spreads negative energy." He looked up and saw that the people guarding Ding were rushing into the house. He smiled and said, "Can you please do me a favor? Please ask Lord Qiu Liang to come.
." Seeing that they all widened their eyes and pinched the guy tightly, they spread their hands and said, "I am also half an official." Then he pointed at Ding and said, "Don't disturb the scene, wait until Lord Qiu comes to ask for it."
Checked."
He was so full of official accent that the guards did not dare to come forward, so they actually used their fast horses to deliver a message to Ding Wangji and Qiu Liang. Ding Wangji arrived first, caressing the corpse and cried bitterly. After a while, Qiu Liang also came and asked hurriedly
"What's going on?"
Jia Cong said, "Master Qiu will find out by asking the two sisters-in-law who are serving her. They both heard it."
Qiu Liang ordered the two sisters-in-law to be brought up. The two sisters-in-law looked at each other for a long time, but neither of them wanted to say anything. Jia Cong was sitting on a bamboo chair drinking tea like no one else. Qiu Liang liked him again, so he believed him for no reason.
At seven points, he shouted to his sister-in-law, "But I will be punished!"
Ding Wangji said angrily, "Master Qiu! Jia Cong is the murderer!"
Jia Cong sneered and said, "Mr. Ding, has he ever seen such an upright criminal as Wan Sheng and such a cowardly victim as the two masters?"
Qiu Liang believed in Jia Cong more and more, and ordered him to take his orders. The two sisters-in-law were frightened, and immediately shouted, "I have nothing to do with the poor nun! It was all done by the master alone, and the poor nun has no idea!"
Ding Wangji drank, "Don't talk nonsense!"
Jia Cong smiled and said, "Mr. Ding, why are you so anxious? It's not too late to listen to what she and I have to say before we argue."
Ding Wangji stumbled and said, "Master Qiu used severe torture to coerce each other. The two of them may not dare to tell the truth because they are frightened."
Jia Xu said in a low voice from behind, "Looking at Mr. Ding's appearance, even an idiot can tell who is being reasonable and who is not."
Qiu Liang said, "Thank you, Mr. Ding, for reminding me. I have been judging cases for decades and I can tell the truth from lies." He ordered him to speak quickly.
The two sisters-in-law were also good at observing words and expressions. Now it was obvious that Master Qiu had the upper hand, so he rushed to tell Ding that he had incited Fang Yong's wife to assassinate him. Qiu Liang was shocked, turned to look at Ding Wangji and sneered, "Xiaguan and Ding." Sir, how can I be so unjust and hateful as to commit such a deadly attack?"
Ding Wangji's internal organs were already like boiling oil, and he suddenly felt at ease after hearing this. The mother and son had done many things, and they were all shameful. Jia Cong was in such a posture just now that he didn't even know what happened. If it was just such a small thing, it would be nothing. He was shocked, "My mother and Mr. Qiu have nothing to do with each other, how can they incite others to do this!"
Jia Cong said, "Is Fang Yong's stupid wife not dead yet? Why don't you ask? She's such a stupid person and you can't tell which things are important and which are not important without asking her."
Ding Wangji immediately said, "Mr. Jia, don't try to trick that woman into retracting her confession!"
Jia Cong laughed and said, "Wansheng doesn't recognize her, and he won't go to see her. How can you trick her?" Then he said to Qiu Liang, "I was playing in Jiuzhaigou these days, and on the way down the mountain, I was stopped by a group of bandits. It was so suspenseful. I lost my life. Thanks to my sharp words, I was able to coax the group of bandits into confusion. They asked me to trick them out," he pointed at Ding's body, "that it was their leader's old concubine who wanted my life." Jia said. Cong spread his hands and said, "Since I came to Chengdu, this old lady has been trying to find something wrong with me. I didn't even care. She actually wants my life! I'm so innocent, okay! But I really can't figure out that she wants to kill me. Because of that. Later, when I was rushing back, I was looking for water from a farmer on the roadside, and I chatted with the old farmer. He mentioned that when planting fruits, if you want the fruits to grow well, you should pick them before they are fully grown. Some small melons and small fruits, otherwise the mother plant will not be able to supply nutrients, and the fruits will not be fragrant and sweet." After saying this, he looked at Ding Wangji with a half-smile.
Ding Wangji was stunned, and after a while he said, "Impossible!"
Jia Cong added, "Actually, how do I know if she has flirted with Fang Yong's wife? It was just a lie, and she immediately did it."
Ding Wangji fell to the ground, and after a while he said, "It's not your turn to kill people! Where will you put the prince and the law?"
"How fresh!" Jia Cong tilted his lips, "Your Majesty's other concubine, King Shantoushan, sent a group of people to kill me. Can't I fight back?"
Ding Wangji hurriedly said to Qiu Liang, "There must be a misunderstanding about this!"
Qiu Liang said, "If there is any misunderstanding, I will tell you after meeting the prince."
"Um, I'm not going to see the prince!" Jia Cong winked, "I'm afraid the prince will lose face."
Qiu Liang didn't go around the corner for a while and said, "How can the prince lose face?"
Jia Cong laughed twice, "This Ding family has other concubines, he must not have thought of it."
Qiu Liang was speechless. After a long while, he said, "It's really shameless..." and then scolded him with a smile, "You naughty guy!" Jia Cong whistled.
Qiu Liang then led his men to take the two sisters-in-law into custody, and left the nunnery with Ding Wangji. Jia Cong rushed behind and called him, "Please ask the prince to come over... Um, let me think about it... which tavern is the most expensive in Chengdu?"
Qiu Liang said, "Are you trying to blackmail him for drinking?"
"I used his drink to call him out of the house." Jia Cong said with a smile, "Ding's matter is not a small matter. It seems wrong that he is not here, and it is embarrassing to be there. After all, she is his mistress."
Qiu Liang nodded, thinking that Jia Cong had chosen the heir apparent among the sons of King Shu, and said, "The most expensive tavern is Taibai Tower."
"Okay. I'll go to Taibai Tower and drink first. If he comes late, he won't have any wine to drink. He just comes and pays." Qiu Liang laughed loudly and clapped away.
After Qiu Liang had gone far, Zhenming asked Jia Cong, "Has the king of Shu been chosen?"
"No!" Jia Cong said, "It won't hurt to get to know a few more princes and princes. I still hope they will fight against the Westerners." Zhenming looked at him for a long time.
Lu Sangu then led everyone to find an inn to stay in. Jia Xu accompanied Jia Cong to Taibai Building to ask for a private room. He only glanced a few times and found five or six people in the corners, under the tables, on the roof, etc. who could be eavesdropped. , a peeking place.
Not long after, the prince came with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Jia."
Jia Cong asked curiously, "Isn't the prince in charge of accounts?"
The prince said, "Naturally."
"Then it is the late-born Crown Prince Xie." Jia Cong also smiled and bowed. The Crown Prince laughed loudly.
When the waiter served food and wine, Jia Cong said seriously, "In fact, inviting the crown prince here today is not just for the prince's face."
The prince smiled and said, "I know. If it's just for that, Master Qiu can send someone to the mansion quickly so that I can avoid the Yamen."
Jia Cong asked, "Does the prince know about puzzles?"
"I don't know."
"Jigsaw is a toy that was just invented by Westerners in recent years. It is rarely heard from our country." Jia Cong said, "It is a picture that is pasted on cardboard, and then the cardboard is cut into small pieces. They formed a pile. The children tried to put these small pieces of paper back together into a picture, so it was called a puzzle. If there was a mistake in one piece, the whole picture would not be complete."
The prince thought to himself, "Mr. Jia, does he think there is something wrong with the spelling?"
Jia Cong smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I think it, but I already know it. I was completely wrong about Ding and Ding Wangji."
The prince said, "I really didn't expect his mother and son to have such ambitions."
"I'm afraid it's more than that." Jia Cong sighed, "Because I have heard about Ding's piano skills, I always thought that what she is best at is playing the piano. In addition, she is just an old lady, and she doesn't even have a status with the prince. , so he despised her. Only then did he realize that this woman was the one who killed Guo Shu. Who is Guo Shu? The leader of careful craftsmen and the leader of military strategists, let her kill her."
The prince said, "Guo Shu always has feelings for her, so he didn't guard against her."
"Nonsense." Jia Cong sneered, "She is from the Ding family, from Prince Yi Zhong's side, and Guo Shu is a craftsman sent by the Supreme Emperor. Guo Shu is a fool not to guard against her. Guo Shu just ignored it. Just one thing."
"What's the matter?"
"Ding's ability is -" Jia Congla slowed down and said, "understanding men." The prince's eyes moved. "Because Ding knows her man Guo Shu, she can think of small things that men don't think of or think are unimportant. , Everyday little things. What little habits, what little good things. These little things can kill a person if they are not protected."
The prince couldn't help but nodded, "Yes. My father was able to take revenge back then because of Guo Shu's little temperament in drinking tea and painting."
Jia Cong raised his eyes and looked at the prince, "So, how much does Ding know about the prince?"
The prince raised his eyebrows in shock, "What?!"
"I didn't say that Ding wanted to kill the prince. The prince is her backer." Jia Cong said, "It's just that Ding must know the prince. After understanding, she can take advantage of him. All kinds of uses that men can't think of."
The prince thought, "Did the father ever have anything for her to take advantage of?"
Jia Cong shrugged, "I am a man, the Crown Prince, and the prince are all men, so I'm afraid I can't even think of it. The Crown Prince will go back and ask some women."
The prince nodded, "My father and I also underestimated her." He chuckled in a low voice, "How can an ordinary woman be able to be the concubine of the prince and the king of the mountain at the same time?"
Jia Cong also laughed mischievously, "Does this count as cuckolding the prince?"
The prince also laughed slyly and said, "Don't worry, she is just a sweetheart, and she has never entered our house." The two of them laughed for a long time.
"One more thing, I won't be practical until I understand." Jia Cong added, "It's like there is a piece missing from the puzzle. It's the Taoist from Zhenyuan. What on earth did the woman who kidnapped me do?"
The prince said, "I have been thinking about it for a long time. Since Zhenyuan is a big thief and Mr. Jia has quite a fortune, could it be for this?"
Jia Cong pursed his lips and said, "Your Majesty, do you believe this?"
The prince smiled bitterly and said, "I really can't find the reason."
Jia Cong sighed, "Things that cannot be found out and cannot be protected will stab us at unknown times. For example, no one knew that the bandit leader Fang Yong had a daughter-in-law who he wanted to divorce but could not get rid of in time. Then she stabbed Qiu
Sir, one strike. Mr. Qiu was very close that day. If it weren't for the fat on his belly..."
The prince couldn't help laughing, and Jia Cong also laughed. They both laughed together for a long time.
Jia Cong coughed twice, "The cause and effect of my incident seems to be this. Mrs. Ding wanted to help the fourth son of your family win the heir. In order to win over me, the popular person in front of the prince, she wanted to send me a beauty. But she was prepared.
The beauty tricks that were sent were too old-fashioned, and I didn't like them. Ding Wangji went to look for me one day. Our sister Chen came in just once to pour tea, and he realized that I was in love with this girl. Ding Wangji revealed the matter.
She was given to Taoist Master Zhenyuan who claimed to be Fang Xiongba's brother. Not long after, Zhenyuan kidnapped Sister Chen. Instead of being imprisoned in the Wuming Temple in Qingcheng Mountain where he practiced, he took a fake late emperor's gold medal and falsely accused her of being an important criminal in the imperial court.
The Taoist priest locked her in the cellar. Ding Wangji claimed that he did this to make it easier for his mother to give me women. Zhenyuan was not Fang Xiong’s brother, he was an impostor. Prince, see, is there anything wrong with this story?
?”
The prince said, "Nothing is right! If Zhenyuan is not Fang Xiong's brother, why are you pretending to be his brother? Will you immediately accept the other girl next to you when Miss Chen is gone?"
"Of course not," Jia Cong said, "I will go crazy looking for her and ignore everything. I will turn the world upside down to find her."
The two of them were stunned for a moment. The prince nodded and said, "Yes! The woman you fall in love with is not a cat or dog that was bought or given by someone else. Mr. Jia, you are brave and impatient. If you mislead a few times, something might happen...
..." He thought for a moment, "I'm going to take Ding Wangji down for interrogation."
Jia Cong chuckled and said, "It may not be possible to find out. What if he pretends that he doesn't know anything? To elaborate, the prince and he also have a grudge against killing his father."
The prince slapped the desk, "How dare he!"
"I definitely dare." Jia Cong said leisurely, "Guo Shu's son." The prince's body showed a bit of murderous intent. (.. )
