If this Ye Feng is really some distant relative of Mrs. Zhang Jian, then he knows nothing about things in Sanshi County. Lin Sijian didn't have to rush to fight with Zhang Jian who was no longer in the court.

You can even express your sympathy for Zhang Wangzhi's experience.

On the contrary...the Lin Mansion will be in big trouble.

In order to confirm Ye Feng's authenticity, Lin Sijian sacrificed one of the "secret men" who had finally been placed in Zhang Mansion and killed random people to try Ye Feng.

Now, Ye Feng's test result was sent back by another Anzi.

However, this result makes things more complicated and confusing.

After Lin Sijian showed the news to his two aides, he lit it on a candle and threw it into a copper basin. While waiting to hear the analysis from the staff.

The first staff member, Fang Wenbin, analyzed first.

"First: Shadow specifically mentioned the scar at the corner of Sanshi Ye Feng's eye. An Er didn't mention it, so Ye Feng in the capital probably doesn't have one."

"Second: The two Ye Feng's faces are similar, but Ye Feng from Beijing is obviously weak in confidence, and his words and deeds are a bit inferior and competitive. Sanshi Ye Feng is very open-minded, confident, and eager for justice."

"Third: and the most important thing. Sanshi Yefeng is not greedy for beauty, but this one is more superficial and lustful."

At this point, Fang Wenbin stopped.

As for the two close aides, he cannot take all the credit. Chang Yantu must also be given a chance to show off.

Chang Yantu understood, he shook his feather fan lightly, shook his head and answered: "Actually, I don't think the two are the same person. If it is San Shi Ye Feng, Zhang Wangzhi will definitely protect his life and arrange for him before his death. Is it necessary to go to my own mansion? Or is it at this juncture? Isn't it a bit cover-up?"

Zhang Wangzhi is so cunning that he is able to "fish" on his own, most likely because of the strong martial arts skills of the people around him, so he will never seek his own death.

It was only Yan Hongda's more powerful and ruthless manpower that shattered Zhang Wangzhi's plan.

It is impossible to say that Ye Feng made special arrangements before Zhang Wangzhi died, or made arrangements to fake his own death. No one could escape from the scene at that time.

Unless Zhang Wangzhi made arrangements in advance knowing that he would die, there are two things that don't make sense here.

The first is: Why didn’t you run away when you knew you were going to die? Are you confused?

The second is: What is the use of arranging for such a person, Xiaoxian Cheng, to come to Beijing? Be a witness? Wouldn't it be easier to keep a bodyguard?

Zhang Wangzhi wouldn't be that stupid.

Let’s talk about Zhang Jian.

If this is Sanshi Ye Feng, then Zhang Jian arranges for such a person from a poor family, with nothing, and a lot of enthusiasm to go to the Ministry of Justice to be a small sixth-rank official, which is like arranging an ant to eat an elephant. No joke. It will also lead to direct confrontation between Zhang Mansion and Lin Mansion.

It would be faster for Zhang Jian to ask His Majesty for a favor, seize the opportunity due to love, only observe filial piety for twenty-eight days, and find a way to get revenge on his own.

Lin Sijian thought so too.

"If this Ye Feng is that Ye Feng, it's been a month and Zhang Jian still hasn't applied for redemption, nor has he made any unnecessary moves. This is more like a bait to tempt us to take action. Keep an eye on them."

Now there is a high probability that Ye Feng was transferred. Zhang Jian probably wanted to use the fake Ye Feng to find out the real murderer of his father.

Fang Wenbin feels the same way.

He praised: "My master is still attentive and noticed that the news mentioned that Ye Feng's method of solving the case in the capital was the same as that of the reckless case. His subordinates ignored it."

Upon hearing that the "flattery" he deliberately left behind was taken by Fang Wenbin first, Chang Yantu quickly replaced it with another flattery and sent it: "Not only that, the master also discovered that Zhang Jian hates iron and is eager to ask for help." The place where the mind is as stable as an old dog is messed up. The master is really as careful as a hair and as discerning as a needle."

"Actually, there is. If Ye Feng from the capital is Zhang Jian's back-up, then there's no way that Zhang Wanrong would hate him without slashing him with a knife, right? The master is a master of meticulous thinking and exhaustive strategies."

Fang Wenbin added another big flattery.

Lin Sijian laughed "haha".

Just flattering someone can make someone feel comfortable, and even listening to a few words can lighten your mood. What's more, after this analysis, he has let go of the big stone in his heart, and he feels extremely clear and relaxed.

But after being in the imperial court for so many years, Lin Sijian would not let this matter or this person go carelessly.

Next, he prepared the design and tried it again.

Seek stability.



At this time, Zhang Jian and Ye Feng were guarding the mourning hall and discussing in low voices what happened during the day.

Although no one paid condolences, Zhang Wangzhi was posthumously conferred a first-class title by His Majesty and had to remain in mourning for 49 days in accordance with regulations.

Zhang Jian's 18-year-old son Zhang Zhiliang, a handsome scholar, has returned from the Imperial Academy to attend the funeral. These days, he and Zhang Jian's brother Zhang Chen take turns staying here while still studying hard in preparation for the imperial examination next spring. .

Women were not allowed to enter the mourning hall. There was a small mourning hall built next to it, and the female family members of the Zhang family took turns guarding there.

Zhang Jian glanced at his son who was immersed in studying across from him. Seeing that there was no one else in the mourning hall, he lowered his gaze and asked Ye Feng softly: "Are you pretending a little too much today?"

Ye Feng is also thinking about this issue.

Because the biggest reason is: He is not yet a wolf minister, but he uses the conditions of a wolf minister to show off. This is actually very easy for others to see through.

But what he was worried about was...

"Is there a mole in your house?"

Ye Feng still remembered that Zhang Jian asked him to kill animals to practice his courage, so he had doubts about this.

Zhang Jian looked at him speechlessly.

"Up to the fourth-rank officials, who has no nails in their house? Lin Sijian wants to get rid of my father. It's just because he arranged it, there will be no less than two."

Each government sets a target for each other, and the East and West factories will also send spies to each government. Everyone understands the principle of knowing oneself and the enemy.

Ye Feng's scalp felt tight after hearing this.

I had known that there were intrigues, intrigues, and battles of wits in the court, but I didn't expect it to be so serious.

This makes people feel less at ease even when they go home or sleep.

Is it a human life?

But then I thought again: For the sake of a few taels of silver, for the sake of family descendants, and for the sake of my own life, I really cannot afford to be negligent at all, and I don't dare to do so.

There is no time to feel at ease.

Then he sighed, thinking that he would not have any servants in his family in the future.

But is it possible?

Being an official is just to make life easier for your family. Chickens and dogs can ascend to heaven. How can you not even hire a servant?

Just when I thought of this, I heard Zhang Jian say: "If a needle cannot be inserted and water cannot be poured in, you will be a thorn in everyone's eyes."

Flies don't look at seamless eggs, but they will definitely find ways to crack the eggs. Or everyone will be on guard against this person. Your Majesty will not reuse such a person.

Therefore, things are going on all the time in high-level houses: conspiracy and counter-planning, utilization and counter-exploitation, the integration of offense and defense, etc.

Those who are unlucky are all negligent.

"Do you think Lin Sijian will believe that I am not San Shi Ye Feng?"

He was afraid that he would fail in his performance.
