Xu Qinghuan shook his head, "No, before that you have to tell me why Master Sun is willing to join forces with you."
Jiang Zhiyi bit her lip, "You should have guessed that because of the smuggling incident, the Zhang family wanted the Sun family and the Yan family to take the blame. Mr. Sun was not here to help me, but to find a way for the Sun family to survive.
"
Xu Qinghuan said nothing and signaled Jiang Zhiyi to continue speaking.
Jiang Zhi recalled, "What is the relationship between the Sun family and the Zhang family? How could they fall out with the Zhang family casually? The reason is because the ships that the Sun family and the Yan family send out to sea every month are seized by Japanese pirates.
You didn't guess one thing right. It wasn't that something went wrong with the smuggling ship after Tan Guangwen rescued me, but that when the Tan family went to pick up the ship before, they found that the ship didn't come back on time."
Xu Qinghuan nodded, "It was because there was a problem with the smuggling ship and Tan Guangyao took people to deal with it, so Tan Guangwen found the opportunity to save you."
Jiang Zhiyi recalled Tan Guangwen with a gentle look on his face, "After Guangwen rescued me, he told me a lot about the Tan family. The Tan family were originally serious businessmen. After Mr. Tan passed away, they started to buy and sell some private goods."
The goods shipped, but I didn’t dare to sell more every time for fear of causing problems. It wasn’t until the past two years that Tan Guangyao gained connections through Fengxiang’s Xu family and expanded the business.”
Xu Qinghuan frowned slightly, Fengxiang Xu family, could it be that Tan Guangyao was talking about Mr. Xu Er.
Mrs. Tan came to the Anyi Marquis Mansion in an unsuccessful attempt to make friends with powerful people. She somehow got in touch with Mr. Xu Er. Mr. Xu Er secretly interacted with the Zhang family, so he could naturally introduce him to the Tan family, even if the Zhang family could not come forward for smuggling.
Goods, the Sun family is short of manpower, wouldn't everyone get what they need?
So that’s it.
After all, people with similar personalities gather together. Mr. Xu Er sent the Tan family to such a path of no return.
Jiang Zhiyi continued, "Originally, I thought it was just a few shipments of goods and nothing major would happen. Above the Tan family is the Sun family. A big businessman like the Sun family can naturally afford to pay for these shipments of goods. Besides, how can the Sun family eat it?"
Due to such a loss, the uncle of Sun's family took a boat to find those people to settle accounts. There were dozens of people in one boat, but only six people came back. It is said that they met Hailong, and everyone who went there was eaten by Hailong. Therefore,
The Sun family also bought a lot of tributes to worship Hailong, hoping that the next business trip on the sea will go smoothly."
Xu Qinghuan knew that people who often went to sea believed this. The Sun family's words didn't sound wrong, but it happened just after the Sun family's several ships of goods were lost, so there was a problem.
Moreover, this uncle of the Sun family was also the first person to be killed in the Sun family. The death of the uncle of the Sun family must be related to this incident.
Xu Qinghuan asked, "After this incident, did the Sun family never mention the missing goods again?"
Jiang Zhiyi nodded, "People outside said that the uncle of the Sun family asked for the money for several shipments of goods. The Sun family did not refute it. However, Guangwen heard the news and the Sun family suffered a big loss in this matter. Guangwen
I also heard Tan Guangyao and Mrs. Tan say that the Sun family uncle quietly told Tan Guangyao that he would no longer take goods from the sea in the near future. Not only that, he should not mention this matter in the future. If he is not careful, it may cause disaster.
In short, let the Tan family keep their mouth shut from now on."
Xu Qinghuan said, "Do you know who is doing business with the Sun family?"
Jiang Zhiyi naturally knew some of the inside information, but he was just a "merchant" who was in contact with the Sun family at sea. In addition to doing smuggling, he was also a famous pirate. This pirate was very capable. He often visited the Japanese country and had many subordinates under him.
Many Japanese people worked for him, and the Sun family transported goods from the Great Zhou Dynasty to the pirate, and then bought the good spices, gems and other items from the pirate."
Xu Qinghuan didn't know anything about pirates and Japanese people, so she couldn't help but think of Song Chengxuan.
If Song Chengxuan is here, he might be able to think about it and roughly know who this "merchant" is.
Jiang Zhi recalled, "In short, the Sun family looked like they were facing a formidable enemy. Tan Guangyao did not dare to look down upon him and hurriedly dealt with his subordinates' matters. It was only then that Guangwen realized that his brother's daily business was not only Tan Guangyao's.
As for those things in the family’s accounts, Tan Guangyao secretly did other things for the Sun family without telling the Tan family.”
Xu Qinghuan asked, "Didn't Tan Guangwen say what Tan Guangyao did in private?"
Jiang Zhiyi shook her head, "Guangwen didn't say it, and I don't want to ask those questions. Tan Guangyao, this beast, can do anything." At this point, she took a long breath, "After this incident, I found that I
The original plan was so ridiculous, I can't even deal with Tan Guangyao, let alone the Sun family and the Zhang family."
After saying this, Jiang Zhiyi's eyes flashed slightly, "Guangwen said that Nie Rong and his wife are so kind. They want to see me live well instead of taking revenge. Guangwen wants to take me away from Changzhou.
I was persuaded by Guangwen, but I didn’t expect that on the day I left, Guangwen disappeared. I was about to ask Mother Wu to go out to look for Guangwen. Mrs. Tan suddenly brought someone to say that I had seduced her two sons. If I still
If Lai refuses to leave in Changzhou, she will be insulted every day."
Xu Qinghuan thought about Mrs. Tan's personality and knew what methods she would use to deal with Jiang Zhiyi.
Jiang Zhi recalled, "I was so desperate that I no longer wanted to stay in Changzhou, so I left with my mother Wu. I had nowhere to go, so I thought it would be better to find a Taoist temple and cut off the worldly world, but I found Guangwen on the way.
Guangwen said that I was tripped up by Mrs. Tan that day, so I couldn't come to the appointment. He asked me to go to Beijing to wait for him. Maybe he had found a way to avenge Nie Rong and his wife, and atone for the Tan family's sins.
I had a bad premonition when I heard this, and asked Guangwen what exactly he had discovered. Guangwen said that sooner or later, the smuggling matter would be hidden, and both the Sun family and the Tan family might be accused, and he wanted to go to the Sun family to find out.
After receiving the news, he asked me to go to Beijing and wait for him, and he would find me later.
I didn't know where to stay, so I thought of the Bishui River, so I went to the Taoist temple on the Bishui River."
Xu Qinghuan said, "Why did Tan Guangwen ask you to go to the capital? You should want to persuade the Sun family to tell the court the ins and outs of the smuggling, or to make meritorious service. Mr. Sun will definitely die, and the Sun family can always be spared. Otherwise, it will bring great consequences to the Sun family."
It will be a greater disaster.
Mr. Sun must have been persuaded by Tan Guangwen, but someone leaked the news in advance. Mr. Sun and Mr. Yan were killed one after another. Mr. Sun must have guessed who the real murderer was, so he came to the capital for a last-ditch effort.
"
Jiang Zhiyi nodded, "I only thought of this after the fact. On the night when Mr. Sun Er died, Guangwen and I met for the last time. Guangwen said that we would both be in danger and could not see each other for the time being. If the case turns around in the future,
..." At this point, she made up her mind, maybe tonight is the last chance for her and Guangwen, "If there is a turn in the case, let me find Mrs. Tan with a letter. Mrs. Tan will know where he is. I
Hide the letter in the belly of the statue of Patriarch Sanqing in the Taoist temple."
Jiang Zhiyi smiled after saying, "After experiencing so many things, I still trust others so easily. I don't know if it brings us blessing or disaster..." Just as she said this, a hand fell on her trembling hand.
on the shoulders.
Jiang Zhiyi raised his head and saw the girl's clear eyes, which were full of determination. "I promise you, I will try my best to find out the truth."
After saying this, Xu Qinghuan walked out, and Jiang Zhiyi's choking voice came from behind.
Xu Qinghuan let out a long sigh and tried her best to investigate the case. This was the only thing she could do for them.
Xu Qinghuan walked out of the Prison Department Prison. To her surprise, besides Xu Qingan, there was also her father waiting outside.
"Dad," Xu Qinghuan stepped forward and said, "Why are you here?"
An Yihou said with a sullen face, "You ran out like this and didn't even hear a word from home. Do you think your father is useless and can't protect you?"
Xu Qinghuan shook his head hurriedly.
Xu Qing'an next to him opened his mouth widely. His father had threatened to break his legs when he saw him, but he said this to his sister.
"Dad," Xu Qinghuan said softly, "it's too late to explain now. We still have to find Mr. Song. This case requires his help."
Song Chengxuan's heart trembled when he thought of this man, Marquis An Yi.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
