The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the waves on the lake are getting higher and higher.⊙,

The waves surged in waves, slapped on the long dike, making a rumbling sound, making people thrilled.

Water vapor filled the air. Standing in Qiufeng Pavilion and looking out, the whole world seemed to become somewhat illusory and not so real.

Yang Shouwen's hair bun was wet and pressed on his face.

However, he ignored him and was digesting Lu Chengzhi's words in his heart.

It can be heard that Lu Chengzhi's evaluation of Wang Yuankai was even higher than that of Wang He.

Unfortunately, such a person...

Yang Shouwen said: "Since you have discovered the problem, why don't you tell me these two days?"

Lu Chengzhi smiled bitterly and said, "Who dares to say anything like this without any confidence? If I hadn't caught up with this matter, I wouldn't dare say such words in front of Alang. Wang Yuankai is a very meticulous person and looks dull, but in fact... but such a person is still dead at the hands of a thief. It's a pity to think about it carefully."

"Yes, such a careful person..."

Having said this, a light of inspiration suddenly flashed in Yang Shouwen's mind.

Wang Yuankai is such a careful person and must be very careful in doing things.

According to the report of Suzhou Governor Cui Xuanwei, Wang Yuankai once secretly reported to him, saying that he had discovered some strange things and said that he was going to Wuxian in two days to report to him in person. However, the day after he sent the secret report, he was poisoned in the study. This shows that the thief got the news and decisively killed him.

But how could such a careful person leak the news?

Unless the people around him...

Slowly, the cause of Wang Yuankai's death has been found, including the way the thief poisoned him.

So, Yang Shouwen has never thought about this anymore.

But now when Lu Chengzhi talked about it, he suddenly thought of a problem, a fatal loophole.

Li Crooked a hole in the beam of the house and hid the poison inside. Then he sealed it with wax. The problem is that Wang Yuankai would cook tea and read books every day. Why didn’t the wax melt early or late? But it melted the day after he sent the report? Unless someone discovered the situation, he put the poison into the hole in the beam that day and then sealed it with a thin layer of wax. This is why when Yang Shouwen inspected the beam, he could still find the remaining wax marks.

In other words, Su Wei, or those Annan thieves, had their eyes and ears placed beside Wang Yuankai!

Thinking of this, Yang Shouwen couldn't help but take a breath.

He swallowed, looked at Lu Chengzhi, and couldn't speak for a long time.

This can explain why, after Wang Yuankai's death, Cui Xuanwei sent someone to check it out, but could not find any clues.

Who is this person?

"Alang, what's wrong with you?"

Yang Shouwen suddenly woke up and raised his hand and rubbed it hard.

He took out the "Wuzhong Miscellaneous Zu" found in Wang Yuankai's study room and placed it on the stone table in the pavilion.

“Huh?”

Lu Chengzhi was stunned for a moment, and then woke up.

"Alang, you..."

Before he could finish his words, he closed his mouth.

Because he found that Yang Shouwen seemed a little anxious.

It was raining heavily at noon.

Taihu Lake in the distance and Changzhou Garden in the near distance are all flooded by the mist. From a distance, the fog is dazzling and the hazy scenery is.

Yao Sanlang took Min Zhuang to guard the city tower.

The gates of Changzhou County are closed, and the city is even more strictly guarded.

The fish market has been closed and the pier has been blocked. Teams of patrol soldiers and Marquis patrolling the streets with a serious expression.

The county town was filled with a nervous atmosphere.

"County lieutenant, someone is here."

Yao Sanlang had just finished patrolling the city gate and was about to sit down and rest when he suddenly heard the captain of Minzhuang beside him shouting.

He quickly got up and walked behind the city wall in the rain, putting his hand on a pergola to watch.

I saw a team of people coming from a distance, with many cars and horses in the team, which looked huge and loud.

In a short while, the convoy arrived at the city.

"Open the city gate quickly."

"Who is below? Today is the martial law in Cheung Chau. No one is allowed to enter or exit without the order of the Conqueror."

"Cai your mother, I am Wang Haibin."

A young general stepped forward and came to the city.

Yao Sanlang was stunned and hurriedly said, "Wang Zongjun, where is the Conqueror?"

Before Wang Haibin could reply, he saw a person coming from the team and coming to Wang Haibin's side, "Sanlang, open the city gate quickly.

My son, Ah Lang, discovered an important clue and had gone to Wuxian to visit the Du Zun.

There were important items seized from the Su family in the car. Alang ordered to keep them properly... Why don't you open the city gate quickly?"

Yao Sanlang recognized that the person who spoke was Lu Chengzhi.

He knew that this Lu Chengzhi was Yang Shouwen's aide and confidant!

"Open the city gate quickly."

Yao Sanlang shouted loudly, and heard a sound from the city, and the city gate opened immediately.

Wang Haibin led the official army and escorted the carriage into the county town. Yao Sanlang wore a straw raincoat and ran down the road from the city tower.

"Mr. Lv, what's the situation?"

Lu Chengzhi was already wet all over, holding the horse, looking very embarrassed.

Carriages and horses passed by him, with many boxes piled up on it.

Lu Chengzhi smiled bitterly and said, "That thief is really cunning. When Ah Lang led us there, the trace of the thief was gone.

Not only that, even the Su family envoys sent by Wu County were poisoned by thieves."

As he said that, his face showed a look of fear and said softly: "Those thieves are really cruel. More than a dozen lives were gone so easily. However, perhaps because they were in a hurry, Alang still found some clues and ordered me to send them to the county government. He took Yang Moli to Wu County, saying that he wanted to ask the Duke Zun for help and was preparing to seal the lake and search again."

"ah?"

Yao Sanlang was also shocked and said in a trembling voice: "I didn't expect Mr. Su to be so crazy?"

"What Mr. Su, fake!"

"Ah?" Yao Sanlang blurted out again and said, "Fake it?"

"Do you remember Alang said before that he visited Puhui Temple at night and found that Su Wei was harmed by Shenhui and others?

Alang is already sure that Yuanwai Su is really dead. The one we met recently was replaced by someone.

But, they can't run away!"

Lu Chengzhi said, pointing to the carriage that had just passed by him.

"Alang has discovered their place, and just wait for him to invite the Duke to prove it to him when he is in person.

By the way, these evidences will be placed in the study in the back garden. You will find some reliable people and must be taken seriously."

"clear."

Yao Sanlang nodded repeatedly.

At this time, Lu Chengzhi suddenly sneezes and smiled bitterly: "Forget it, I'll go back and take a hot shower first.

This damn ghost weather is really a headache. Just a little thing. I was so tired after being transported back."

"Yes, yes, the rain is so heavy."

Lu Chengzhi and Yao Sanlang bowed and rushed straight to the county government office with a vehicle.

After returning to the county government office, he had a discussion with Wang Haibin for a while, and Wang Haibin immediately left with his subordinates.

Lu Chengzhi found Yang Chou'er and Fei Fugui again, and after a few words of advice, he went back to the house. He didn't rest all night, and after being poured by the rain, Lu Chengzhi felt a little uncomfortable. He spent a lunch and went back to the room to rest.

Heavy rain stops in the evening.

The martial law in the county town has not been lifted, but it feels like it has been a little relaxed.

There are few people in the fish market pier.

The guise at the entrance of the Eight Immortals Inn was wilted like an eggplant hit by frost. It hung on the flagpole, looking weak. The lantern at the door swayed gently, and the candlelight inside was flashing and dark, like a ghost fire.

Ming Shijiu shrank behind the counter, his eyes half-opened and half-closed, as if he was asleep.

At this moment, the gate was pushed open with a panic and someone walked in from outside.

Ming Shijiu woke up and looked up. He saw that the person was about six feet tall, tall, tall and slender. He was wearing a black robe, a veil and a black gauze covering his face. After walking into the Eight Immortals Inn, he went straight to the counter.

"Shopkeeper, give me a room."
