Enemies in previous lives may not necessarily be enemies in this life.
Even if it was Li Xu, she would not hesitate to avenge her previous life without saying anything different. Why would she have to fight to the death with Song Chengxuan here?
Anyway, she is no longer Li Hou's wife, and she no longer plans major affairs for Li Xu. Who will win between Li Xu and Song Chengxuan in the future has nothing to do with her.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Mr. Song, since there is no misunderstanding between us, how about solving this case together?"
"Okay," Song Chengxuan seemed to agree without thinking. He turned around and ordered the guards, "Send the captured person to the post house."
Xu Qingan was relieved when he heard this.
After everything was properly prepared, everyone got on their horses.
The speed of the horse is not slow, and although she is a female family member, she does not hinder everyone's schedule.
Seeing that they were about to reach the post house, Xu Qinghuan let go of his horse and walked to Song Chengxuan's side.
Song Chengxuan guessed that she would ask him a few key questions, which is why he agreed to jointly investigate the case. Zhang Zhenren inquired about information around her and found that she was only focusing on the case and was not bent on finding out his identity.
After tonight, after seeing her every move, he believed even more that she was just trying to find out who was framing An Yihou.
But there were still many questions that she couldn't explain.
For example, seeing him at a glance in the crowd, it seems natural to be suspicious and wary of Mr. Zhang.
Since you couldn't get a closer look at the other party after several fights in secret, it's okay to put everything out in the open now.
At least what she said was right. Finding the mastermind behind the scenes was what he and she had to do first.
There is no point in speculating and entangled with each other like this.
Xu Qinghuan did not beat around the bush and said directly: "Why did Young Master Song investigate this case?"
Song Chengxuan said: "I know Prince Guangping. Not long ago, Prince Guangping sent me a letter, asking me to come to the northwest for a reunion. However, when I arrived, Prince Guangping was missing."
Xu Qinghuan thought carefully: "I heard that the Crown Prince of Guangping won a battle in Duogansi," he said with a slight pause, "According to this calculation, it should not be the Crown Prince of Guangping who led the troops in the battle."
"I am the one leading the troops."
She deduced happily, and he admitted quickly. His tone sounded gentler than before, but there was a tough and decisive flavor in it.
"It was the Crown Prince of Guangping who told Mr. Song that a deputy general was fleeing to Duogansi. Mr. Song did not see the prince, but secretly found out that the deputy general had such an intention, so he led his troops to kill the deputy general."
After saying this, Xu Qinghuan sighed: "It seems that the prince is likely to be in trouble.
The Crown Prince invited Young Master Song to go to the northwest, which shows that he believed that the matter was too important to explain clearly in a few sentences, so he took the trouble to invite reinforcements. If he could move freely, he would naturally come to meet him.
From this point of view, whoever attacks the Prince of Guangping must be the mastermind behind the scenes. No matter who it is, they are probably related to the war in the northwest.
If this is really the case, Xu San's motivation can be explained clearly. He was anxious to take the tax money out of the Cao family just to use it as military resources. If the Song Gongzi could lead the troops to quell the rebellion in place of the Prince of Guangping, he would naturally have made great achievements in the southeast.
, Based on Mr. Song’s understanding of the war situation, he must have secretly made arrangements and preparations for the northwest. Now as long as we catch the person behind the scenes, we can eliminate the hidden dangers for the northwest."
If he puts on a high hat, he will be hindered by it.
Song Chengxuan said: "If Miss Xu thinks of Song so righteously, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."
Xu Qinghuan smiled: "Between the spy and Mr. Song, I seem to have no choice."
While talking, the inn has already arrived.
When Sun Chong saw Xu Qinghuan and others, he immediately came over to greet them.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Same as in Fengxiang, a dead soldier and a spy."
There was still blood on Sun Chong's face, and he said dejectedly: "The dead soldier is dead."
Xu Qing said with a smile: "Fortunately, the spy has been caught by Mr. Song, so our return this time is not without success."
"Master Song?" Sun Chong was a little surprised.
Yong Ye, the guard beside Song Chengxuan, stepped forward and said, "My young master is the newly appointed envoy to Quanzhou."
The official position of recruiting envoys is not big, especially when there is no war, it is just a sinecure. In recent years, when the imperial court recruits the children of wealthy families, it often puts down such official positions to prepare for their future promotion.
However, the recruiting envoy has an important duty, which is to recruit surrenders and fight against rebels. If there is an urgent matter in the army, there is no need to report it urgently. It can be done expeditiously.
She seemed to have never heard that Song Chengxuan held this position in her previous life.
Is it possible that Cheng Cheng found a suitable identity for himself in order to investigate the case in an honest and fair manner? It can be seen that this person is deeper than Li Xucheng Mansion.
Sun Chong immediately stepped forward to salute Song Chengxuan. He had already known that there were other people living in the post house, and he could tell from the carriage and horses that they belonged to a wealthy family.
Now that he knew Song Chengxuan's official position, Sun Chong understood that the eighth member of the Song family had just been promoted and came to Beijing specifically to thank him.
"I had known that the female family members of the Marquis of Guangping would pass by here," Song Chengxuan said calmly, "I came here to meet you because I wanted to ask Mrs. Marquis Guangping about the whereabouts of the Crown Prince. I didn't say anything before because I was afraid of being too abrupt. Now I have arrested her.
If I find a spy, I'm afraid there might be some connection."
Sun Chong had never thought about this part. He was stunned for a moment and immediately said: "My lord said that if you have any doubts, you should ask clearly, but... shouldn't the prince... be guarding the border in the northwest? How could..."
Song Chengxuan looked at Yong Ye, who immediately handed a letter to Sun Chong: "This is a letter written by the Crown Prince to my lord. My Lord rushed to the northwest but there was no trace of the Crown Prince. I heard that the Marquis of Guangping and his family have already
After entering Beijing, I pursued him all the way here."
The Prince of Guangping has disappeared.
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Sun Chong's forehead. Ever since the incident at Cao's house in Fengxiang, he had dealt with all major cases. Was this God's intention to test him?
Sun Chong regretted volunteering to solve the case, but now he was stuck in the mud and couldn't get out.
"Master Sun, where is that woman?"
Miss Xu's voice sounded, and sparks flashed in Sun Chong's eyes. Fortunately, he still had Miss Xu to rely on.
Sun Chong said: "Ms. Zou was injured and has been carried into the house. Madam Chang is applying medicine to her."
Xu Qinghuan looked at Song Chengxuan: "I'll go in first to check on Zou's situation. Thank you Mr. Song for waiting again."
Facing the female family members, she naturally acts more conveniently.
Song Chengxuan didn't speak. After Xu Qinghuan left, he sat on a chair in the lobby of the post house.
There was silence in the lobby. Facing the silent Mr. Song, Sun Chong felt the cool wind pouring in through his collar.
Song Chengxuan poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Sun Chong: "Master Sun, please."
Seeing Song Chengxuan's cold eyes, Sun Chong felt as if he was being worshiped during the Qingming Festival. He didn't dare to drink this cup of tea, so he swallowed a sip and saluted repeatedly: "Sir Song, you have broken me."
As soon as he said this, he heard Zou's roar like a pig being slaughtered from the inner room.
The sound was sharp, but it broke the dull atmosphere. Sun Chong breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that this beautiful sound would continue.
…
Zou's eyes were red and howling.
When I heard that the person who came was the eldest lady of the Anyi Hou Mansion, my lifeless face suddenly became alive.
Anyone who does not worship the living Bodhisattva is a fool.
"Miss Anyihou... you have to make the decision for the women of the country. That bitch wants to kill me..." the woman said in one breath, "She was afraid that her identity would be exposed, so she did such a cruel thing to me... Wuwu
Ugh...if it weren't for someone from the government office, I would have been on Huangquan Road now, and I would know what she is...I would have known it a long time ago..."
