"Boss Qiu means that A Buhan's downfall has something to do with you?" Shen Cha raised an eyebrow and sneered, "With all due respect, A Buhan is the marshal of the Jin Kingdom, one person is inferior to ten thousand people, and you, I'm just a drugstore owner in Daxia, how can I shake Abuhan's towering tree?"
"General, you don't know something. Little people also have their advantages. Little people can easily do things that big people can't do, even better than they do, because we are not valued or paid attention to."
Boss Qiu's expression did not have the joyful feeling of revenge as he imagined, but instead looked more sad.
Shen Cha could understand Boss Qiu's current state of mind, as if she, her brother, and Brother Xiaotian killed the King of Liao and the eldest prince to avenge the murder of their father and mother, but they were not happy. No matter how many Liao generals they killed, even if they broke into Linhuang Mansion, it was impossible for their father and mother to return to the world and touch their heads with warm hands. The same is true for Boss Qiu.
"If it's convenient, could Boss Qiu tell us how you killed Abuhan?"
Xue Ruitian sneezed, rubbed his nose, and wrapped the cloak closer, wishing that his whole face could be buried in the cloak.
"Of course, there is nothing to hide." Boss Qiu's answer was straightforward, "My wife has a distant cousin who is a small corps commander in Abuhan's army, and his immediate boss is the two you arrested. The fatter one. This cousin once lived in my wife’s house for a few years when he was young. After joining the army, he gradually lost contact with her. At most, he only gave gifts during holidays. Especially these two days. In the New Year, except for the New Year’s ceremony, there is basically no news about this person.”
"Did he send you the news about your father-in-law's family's disaster?"
"Yes, he sent it out. Not only did he send it out, but he also reconnected with us. My father-in-law regarded him as his own and treated him like his own son. Therefore, he hates Abuhan more than I do. Even stronger. According to us Daxia people, the hatred of killing a father is irreconcilable. Not only that, the minions sent by Abuhan to inspect the medicine store are all people of bad character. When they see beautiful girls, Young man, your eyes are like a thief. The search is at night. You all should understand what will happen without me telling you."
"In other words, Abu Khan not only hates this cousin for killing his father, but also for humiliating his wife. No wonder he chose to join forces with you to get rid of him! If it were me, I wouldn't be able to bear this tone." While speaking, Xue Ruitian sneezed seven or eight times, blew his nose, and said in a disgusting tone, "This is really a crooked thing. What can his subordinates, especially those around him, do?" This kind of thing is not unusual. They have been influenced by it all day long. They just watch what their masters do all day long!" Xue Ruitian finally sneezed an earth-shaking and loud sneeze, which shocked the shadows guarding outside. They all ran in to check and asked if they wanted to invite Jin Miaomiao to come over and show Xue Ruitian. Xue Ruitian waved his hands and said, "You still remember the last time we competed with Liao and Jin. In the evening, we drank and chatted together, but Abu Khan was missing. Yelu told us, that The bastard has no interest in drinking or chatting. No matter whether he is fighting outside or doing something else, as long as it comes at night, his main tent will be filled with the sound of warblers and swallows. When Yelu said these words, his tone was quite disgusting. "
"I remember." Shen Haolin also said, "After we finished drinking, we went back to our respective camps. If Cha'er and I were going back, we would have to pass by Abuhan's tent. It would have been past midnight by then. , A Buhan's interest is high, and he has no intention of resting at all. You are right, what kind of commander there is, there are what kind of subordinates. It's just..." Shen Haolin touched his nose and was led by Xue Ruitian Yes, he also felt like sneezing. "Boss Qiu, since your wife's cousin is a subordinate of those two fat men, why didn't he participate in this operation?"
"His position is low, and he is not good at flattering others, so he will naturally not be liked by others. It is his turn no matter how easy it is for someone to look after someone's house, like a house arrest. I don't know if it was intentional, but that night, it happened to be his turn. On duty.”
"This can be regarded as escaping. Otherwise, he is likely to be exposed, and he will not be able to cooperate with you in your subsequent revenge plan."
After Hongye finished speaking, he looked at the tea bowls in front of several people and saw them all empty. He ran out and asked for a pot of freshly brewed hot tea, and came back to pour it for everyone.
"Don't be busy, sit down." Shen Cha grabbed Hong Ye's arm, asked her to sit next to him, and continued to ask Boss Qiu, "How did this cousin, who is so soft-spoken, collect so much evidence about A Buhan? Does your cousin have an unusual background?"
"Yes, he can barely be considered a minor nobleman in Linhuang Mansion. He looks good and has a good personality. If he doesn't become a soldier, becoming a scholar is also a good choice. However, most of his playmates are After joining the army, the elders in his family also wanted him to go, so he had no choice but to go. Growing up in Linhuang Mansion, his friends were naturally the top nobles of the Jin Kingdom. It was easy to make Abuhan feel uncomfortable. .”
"It's true that the nobles of the Jin Kingdom, no matter how big or small, don't look down on Abuhan, right?"
"Yes, this man was born as a commoner and did not have a strong family support behind him. His mother had been farming in the countryside. She did not know that her son was the marshal of the Jin Kingdom until her death. It can be said that Abuhan relied entirely on himself. His abilities and military achievements have made a big difference. However, this kind of person has a very low status in the hearts of the Linhuang Mansion nobles and can be stepped on at any time. Therefore, why he rebelled is because he knows very well that once these nobles do not need He charges forward and once he finds someone to replace him, he won't hesitate to kill him."
"Everyone pushed against the wall. You just took advantage of the thoughts of the nobles of the Jin Kingdom and collected evidence step by step, ultimately pushing Abuhan to death." Shen Cha looked at Boss Qiu, "This process is very difficult and long. , it takes many years of preparation, have you ever thought about giving up?”
"No, I said before, no matter how long it takes, no matter how difficult the process is, this revenge must be avenged!"
"I admire you!" Shen Cha nodded, "Let's put aside A Buhan's matters for now. Let's talk about the convoy that delivers medicinal materials to Tongjitang. Who is the leader of the convoy?"
"The son of my father-in-law's housekeeper is very loyal to my father-in-law's family. When the accident happened, he went home to visit relatives, so he escaped the disaster. He was the one who conveyed the news between my cousin and me."
"Hey, this brother is quite capable. Not only can he avoid such a catastrophe, but he can also avoid our tracking." Xue Ruitian showed a half-smile expression on his face, "What is this brother's background? ?Have you learned any magical kung fu?"
"I don't know the details. I heard from my father-in-law that when he was young, he had a master as his disciple and learned some strange armor-defying techniques. So, it is normal to get rid of your tracking." Boss Qiu waved his hand towards Xue Ruitian, "But, he didn't mean any harm. The person who dumped you was completely afraid of leaking some information and making Abuhan defensive. So, you must not embarrass him."
"Don't worry, as long as he is harmless to Daxia and Jiapingguan City, we will treat him well. After confirming that you and he were not involved in poisoning General Shen, we will naturally let you go. After all, Tongjitang is harmful to our Jiapingguan City It's still very important." Xue Ruitian raised his eyebrows, "Come on, Boss Qiu, let's talk about whose idea it was to put something in General Shen's medicine."
"It's me." Seeing several people staring at him, Boss Qiu said calmly, "I really had no other choice, so I made this decision, hoping that Dr. Jin would find it early. To be honest, my lords, since those two After the fat man arrived, what I thought about most every day was how to notify Shen Jiajun and arrest these two fat men."
"You can definitely send someone to tell us." Shen Cha raised his eyebrows, "They control the entire Tongji Hall?"
"Yes, they didn't come by themselves. They were accompanied by seven or eight people. Because they were afraid of being discovered by the soldiers at the city gate, they went into the city separately and met at Tongji Hall. Their people replaced some of my boys, and other boys and apprentices Every move we make is watched closely to prevent us from going out to report the news."
"But...why did they choose Tongjitang instead of other places?"
"My father-in-law's medicine shop in the Kingdom of Jin is called Tongjitang. They know that the son-in-law of Tongjitang is from Daxia, and they also know that his son-in-law also opened a medicine shop called Tongjitang in Daxia."
"Did your father-in-law say that?"
"No, it should be the apprentice of the medicine shop who said it. He probably wanted to survive. Unexpectedly..." Boss Qiu shook his head, "sensing that something was going to happen to A Buhan, the two of them ran away with others. Now Jin Guozhuan After going around for a while, they finally sneaked into the Jiaping Pass. Their purpose was to wait until the limelight was over, return to the Kingdom of Jin, and kill Yan Ping. This time, they received news from their accomplices and knew that the Kingdom of Jin had suffered a big disaster. It's difficult. Wan Yanping ran out to provide disaster relief. She felt that the opportunity for revenge had come, so she wanted to return to the Kingdom of Jin with the convoy delivering medicinal materials." After Boss Qiu finished speaking, he took a long breath and looked at Shen Cha and Shen Hao. Lin, "It is my sole responsibility to mix something into General Shen's medicine. If there is a punishment, please punish me alone. The shopkeeper and the guys are unaware of it. Please General Shen and Marshal not to implicate them."
"Is it all over?"
"Yes, what Xiaomin knows and what Xiaomin has done has been fully explained."
Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and Xue Ruitian looked at each other, saw the understanding in each other's eyes, and curled their lips in tacit understanding.
"Boss Qiu!" Shen Cha stood up from the stone bench, walked slowly in front of Boss Qiu, and sneered, "In other words, Mrs. Qiu's cousin, do you feel that you have done everything flawlessly? Did you successfully deceive us?"
