Chapter 359 Who did she meet?
Ji Zhao sneered, approached her without hesitation, and raised his hand to slap her loudly!
"Who gave you the guts to hide my husband?"
"Sister A Tao? What are you talking about?" Fan Xuancao's eyes flashed panic, she covered her face, and asked with tears in her eyes, "I know you look down on me in your heart, but no matter what, how can you ...How can you do it casually?"
"Hitting you will dirty my hands!"
Ji Zhao narrowed his eyes and sneered, then turned to her face, bowing left and right!
"Originally, I sympathized with your experience because of my past affection, but now I think it's not worth mentioning that you are such a self-deprecating person!"
"I..." Fan Hemerocallis, who was full of tears, looked at her in horror, curled up in fear, and finally passed out!
Soon someone **** Fanliflower!
Following the traces in the dream, Ji Zhao finally found Shen Yao.
"Zhao Zhao?" The moment Shen Yao saw the person coming, he thought he was dreaming.
"Shen Yao, I'm here." Ji Zhao smiled brightly at him.
"Fan Hemerism is the person of Lin Zhixuan, the Jiangnan salt transport envoy, so it is not suitable to stay here for a long time." Shen Yao hurriedly said, "Zhao Zhao, you go!"
"Let's go together!" Without saying a word, Ji Zhao put him on his back, panting heavily, "Shen Yao, I know that doing this will definitely damage your wounds, but right now we have no There is no other way out, so bear with it!"
Fortunately, this time Ji Zhao brought a team of elite Imperial Forest Army;
With their help, Ji Zhao successfully took away Shen Yao and Fan Hemerocallis.
Considering Shen Yao's injuries, Ji Zhao didn't leave Jinling directly, but rented a painting boat near Qinhuai Tower.
She fed Van Hemeris a drug that temporarily lost her voice, making her weak and weak.
Then he began to heal Shen Yao's wound with all his heart.
When she untied the blood-stained bandage wrapped around Shen Yao's chest, Ji Zhao suddenly felt sore eyes.
The pair of almond eyes that were always good-looking were filled with a hazy mist.
"Zhao Zhao?" Seeing her like this, Shen Yao's heart suddenly ached, "Don't be sad, I'm fine."
Ji Zhao pursed his lips and said nothing, but picked up a sharp dagger soaked in alcohol, carefully cut open the layer of carrion that had grown on his wound, and finally sprinkled a special golden sore medicine, and re-injured him. The wound on the body is bandaged.
After finishing all this, a layer of sweat had formed on Ji Zhao's forehead.
Glisting beads of sweat dripped on the back of Shen Yao's hands, making him so distressed that it was difficult to breathe.
"Zhao Zhao, are you still angry?"
Ji Zhao took a deep breath, finally grabbed his arm again, and bit him viciously.
But when she saw the bright red tooth marks branded on his arm, her heart ached even more.
"What's going on? How did you get hurt? And Fan Hemerocallis, why did she hide you secretly?" Ji Zhao had too many doubts in his heart.
"It's a long story..." Shen Yao frowned slightly, slowly explaining what happened during this period.
Emperor Jingchen intends to clear up the corruption in the Jiangnan area, and has always wanted to find a suitable opportunity to go deep into the Jiangnan area. By investigating the salt tax case, he will tear a hole in the cloud covering the Jiangnan area.
It happened that Qin Minghong handed over the secret document. The officials in the south of the Yangtze River, nine out of ten, are corrupt, more or less different.
After Emperor Jingchen came to the throne, he had already removed the power of the aristocratic family and established his prestige; but how could the corruption in the Dajing Dynasty be resolved in a day or two? So Emperor Jingchen set his sights on the plump Jiangnan.
Emperor Jingchen and his elder brother Jingyuan had completely different temperaments. Emperor Jingyuan was indulging in wine pools and meat forests, and he was even more nepotistic in the court. What is not seen is pure; but Emperor Jingchen wanted to revitalize Anbang wholeheartedly. The original intention of the emperor was different, and the style of acting was naturally different.
"Qin Minghong announced in the secret compromise that the illicit salt sellers in the south of the Yangtze River colluded with the officials. As for the people from the Cao Gang, although they helped maintain order on the canal, they actually earned very little money, and All the money they earn is coolie money. Originally, the Cao Gang, the Yan family who sold smuggled salt, and the officials in Jiangnan formed an extremely tacit situation. They lived in peace for many years, but the taxes Jiangnan paid to the court every year, but It's just a bit of it leaking through their fingers."
"It wasn't until three months ago that a case appeared in Qinhuai Tower, which broke the tacit understanding between the three." Shen Yao sighed in a low voice, "Cao Xinyue, the adopted daughter of the Cao Gang, died in Qinhuai Tower." , and his body was naked, with whip marks all over his body, and the inspection found that Cao Xinyue was abused by many people before he died."
"And Cao Xinyue had a marriage contract with Lin Youyang, the son of Lin Zhixuan, the Jiangnan salt transport envoy, since he was a child...Cao Xinyue's death was too tragic. The leader of the Cao Gang, Cao Xinyue's adoptive father, Cao Meng, rushed directly to Lin's mansion and beat him up. One of Lin Youyang's legs was broken, and the situation in Jinling has changed since then."
"Has the cause of Cao Xinyue's death been found out? Why did she die in Qinhuai Tower?" Ji Zhao became more and more confused, "Why do I feel that this case is full of doubts?"
"Yes," Shen Yao held her hand silently, and sighed softly, "After I came to Jinling and heard about this case, I also felt that there were many doubts, so I tried a way to call out the case. Some clues have been found in the file of the case."
"About four months ago, something went wrong with a batch of goods transported by the Cao Gang. The leader of the Cao Gang, Cao Meng, and Qin Minghong's uncle, Cao Xing, were both implicated. Immediately afterwards, the government officials took the two of them away; but On the day of February 15th, Cao Xinyue, who had always stayed out of the gate, received a letter from a little beggar, and hurried to the Qinhuai Tower in a carriage. thing;
But less than half a day after Cao Xinyue's death, both Cao Meng and Cao Xing were released. "
"That is to say, Cao Xinyue had an accident to save her adoptive father and uncle?" After hearing the whole case, Ji Zhao became more and more calm, "There will not be so many coincidences in the world. Cao Xinyue just had an accident, and Cao Meng and Cao Meng Xing was released? Or are we assuming that all of this is a game deliberately set up by someone? A game against the Cao Gang?"
"Zhaozhao really has an exquisite mind." Shen Yao smiled and gestured a thumbs up to his wife, "Afterwards I hid my identity and went to Qinhuai Tower, but I saw Fan Hemerocallis by accident and got some clues."
"That day, Cao Xinyue was in the Qinhuai Tower, and only saw two people before and after."
"Who did she meet?" Ji Zhao asked curiously.
