After looking through the official documents and newspapers delivered this morning, there was nothing special that needed attention. The eyeliners arranged by Liao and Jin did not send any secret messages. Shen Cha said hello to Shen Haolin and ran next door to take a bath. .
On the left side of Shen Haolin's bedroom is the guest room where Shen Cha used to live temporarily. Now it has become a place where Shen Cha temporarily stores some clothes and small items that are not usually needed. On the right side is a shower room, which is always in use. After winter, especially after Shen Cha was injured and Shen Haolin fell ill, the place was no longer used. Firstly, it is inconvenient, and secondly, the weather is too cold. It is easier to catch colds here and there, which will aggravate injuries and illnesses.
However, as Shen Haolin said before, it is really not good to always bathe in the bedroom. Although they cannot build a shower room larger than three rooms like the Marquis next door, the most basic facilities are still Must have. Therefore, while Shen Cha was going to Wuma Town to investigate the case, Shen Haolin had people clean the bathing room again and put a few more charcoal basins in it. Even if he fell asleep while taking a bath, he would not be afraid of being cold. On fire.
This satisfied Shen Cha the most. As soon as she opened the door of the shower room, she felt a warmth rush through her body, not to mention feeling very comfortable.
"General, the two of us are sitting outside. If you have anything to do, please give us orders." Mei Lin and Mei Zhu brought the bathtub and hot water they had prepared into the inner room, and put bath towels and sachets on the coat rack. Things like combs and combs, and the coat, cotton robe, and cloak that you need to change into after taking a bath are placed on the other side. While undoing Shen Cha's hair, Mei Lin said, "You haven't slept all night, and you have been traveling all morning today, so don't fall asleep. If you catch a cold by then, the Duke of Guo will not only feel sorry for you, but he will also help you." Being punished!”
"My master is not that kind of person." Shen Cha chuckled, "I asked you to rest, but you ate in a hurry and came back, right? You didn't sleep all night just like me, and the same Aren’t you tired after traveling all morning?”
"I'm not tired!" Merlin shook his head, "Working makes me happy! By the way, I just met Shi Qi on the way back from Nuan Pavilion. He said, Dai Yi, the boy who provoked you, seems a little unable to hold on. ”
"As expected!" Shen Cha immersed herself in the tub, and Mei Zhu went over to rub her back. She closed her eyes and said softly, "Now is a critical moment. If he grits his teeth and gets through it, he will arrive. A new situation, if you can't survive it... you will return to your original shape. This kind of thing depends on Dai Yi himself. Others can only supervise him, that's all. The rest can only be looked at by himself." Chen Cha Sighing, "I almost forgot, what happened to the thing I asked you to investigate? What happened to the two gangsters?"
"We searched our agent first. His stuff was simple and his resume was simple. He was the youngest, least experienced, and most junior among the three people. This case of the Jin State Mission was his first. A case can only be followed by the work of the Liao and Jin Dynasties. It is whatever they say. It is useless even if you have doubts, and no one will listen to him."
"Then how did he become a gangster? How did he get to Wuma Town?"
"Do you remember Lao Su? He was the one who did the autopsy in our army." Seeing Shen Cha nodding, Merlin continued, "This Xiao Su is his youngest son. When Lao Su was sent to Wuma Town, His youngest son seems to be just two or three years old." Merlin paused for a moment and said, "I remember a few months ago, a message was sent from Wuma Town saying that Lao Su had passed away and that the position of widower was due. His younger son took over.”
"I remembered, this is what happened." Shen Cha stood up from the tub, and Mei Zhu took the tub out, replaced it with a new one, and filled it with hot water again, "It's just... are you sure? Is that person her little son?"
"It's certain." Merlin nodded, "While you were interrogating in the lobby, we went to the ice cellar to search their bodies and check their faces."
"That means there is no possibility of disguise!" Shen Cha closed his eyes, "What did the people in the post house say?"
"This Xiao Su is very taciturn. He just shuts himself in his room and reads books every day, and rarely talks or chats with other people. They...well, they occasionally drink wine at night, but he never joins in. He is a very withdrawn person. When we searched his room, we really didn't see anything except a lot of books. However, Lao Su is a very withdrawn person, so it makes sense to raise his son to be like him."
"Father once said that Old Su is taciturn, but he will never be vague at critical moments. His youngest son is really nothing like him. Where are the eldest and second eldest children in his family?" Shen Cha frowned slightly. He raised his eyebrows and said, "One is in the Leopard Camp of the rear army, and the other is in the Wolf Camp of the central army, right?"
"Yes!" Mei Zhu nodded, "General, do you want to see them?"
"Do you think they will have any impression of their youngest brother? You just said that there is nothing in his room except books. Don't you think it's strange? Don't they even have the most basic greetings between them? ?”
"Yes!" Mei Zhu sighed, "Brother Xiao Liu said that every time he received a letter from his two brothers, Xiao Su would cry in his room for a whole day. When Lao Su was still alive, he would always cry in his room at this moment. Smoking and sighing in the lobby downstairs.”
"Wait a minute!" Shen Cha closed his eyes and carefully recalled Xiao Su's appearance and body shape, including the weight on her hand when she was carrying him. He suddenly opened his eyes, "Wait, this People like to live alone and don't like to communicate with others, that is, there is something hidden. Do you think there is a possibility that the youngest child of the old Su family is not actually a son, but a daughter? If so, what are his strange behaviors? That explains it.”
"Absolutely impossible!" Mei Lin and Mei Zhu shook their heads at the same time, "General, the person we searched is indeed a boy."
"No matter it may not be possible, remember, let the Su brothers come to see me tomorrow! If this little Su is really a girl, quickly transfer her back and find someone else to work for. If not, look at the three brothers Why is the relationship between them so strange?" Seeing the two sisters nodding, Shen Cha waved his hands, "Let's put this aside for now, what's going on with that Liao country's coward?"
"You said hello to General Yelu in advance. We searched the post house with the people from Liao. This operation... is not easy!"
"What do you mean?" Shen Cha looked at them curiously, "Why is it not simple? Whose craftsmanship is it?"
"He is from King Xiao Liao, and he specializes in collecting information about Wuma Town. But he doesn't seem to be very loyal to King Xiao Liao, and it's not just as simple as King Xiao Liao's careful work." Merlin blinked, "According to what we have found so far, Look, he also sold news to the Duans, Tubos, and occasionally Uighurs, and the Wanyan family also bought news from him, but it’s hard to say whether the news he sold was true.”
"King Xiao Liao, I can understand." Shen Cha nodded, "What that child hates most is Yelvertu and the people behind him. It is understandable that he wants a force of his own that is loyal to him wholeheartedly. But, it’s really difficult. No one in the Yelu family takes him seriously. That coward also sells information to the Duan family, Tubo, Uighur, and Wanyan families? Is he actually an information dealer?"
"That's right. We think the Little Liao King is his guest." Mei Lin and Mei Zhu nodded, "However, the Liao people who were searching with us were very angry. This man probably won't live to celebrate the New Year. What about the Little Liao King?" ...We feel that it is very likely that he will be kicked off the throne after the first month."
"This is inevitable. It's fine if Yelvertu doesn't know about it. If he knows about it, he won't let King Xiao Liao go. He will definitely retaliate harshly!"
After soaking in Chencha for a while, she felt that the water temperature was a bit cold, so she stopped soaking. She wiped off the water droplets on her body with a bath towel, got dressed, put on her cotton boots, wrapped herself in a thick cloak, and took Mei Lin and Mei Zhu quickly rushed out of the shower room and rushed into the bedroom next door.
"It's so cold!" After rushing into the room, Shen Cha took off his cloak, shook the water droplets from his hair, waved to Mei Lin and Mei Zhu, indicating that they could leave, and walked to Shen Hao Sitting down next to Lin, "Brother, what are you looking at?"
"Why did you run out without drying your hair? It's you who has a headache because of the cold!" Shen Haolin reached out and flicked Shen Cha's forehead, stood up, took a bath towel from the closet and walked over , while wiping Shen Cha's hair, he said, "Have the other two coworkers investigated?"
"You really can't hide anything from your brother." Shen Cha told the investigation results of Mei Lin and Mei Zhu, "So, is the youngest child of the Su family a son or a daughter?"
"He's his son, but he has a more introverted personality. It's because of this that he was taken to Wuma Town."
"What kind of truth is this?" Shen Cha looked confused, "Were you bullied when you were a child?"
"That's not true." Shen Haolin shook his head, "It was just that Old Su was worried that his youngest son would not be able to stay in the army, so he took him away. Xiao Su's two brothers felt uncomfortable and thought My father doesn’t pay much attention to them, so the four of them still have some conflicts. However, this is a family matter, so let’s not interfere too much. If we have the opportunity, let the two brothers go to Wuma Town and let them explain it to them face to face.”
"Okay!" Shen Cha yawned and leaned on Shen Haolin's shoulder, "Sleepy."
"Then go and sleep for a while, but not for too long, otherwise you won't be able to sleep at night."
"Well!" Shen Cha stretched out, "Go to bed!"
At this moment, Ying Wu's voice came from outside the door.
"My lord, general, your majesty's secret message has arrived!"
