Chapter 227 One Hundred Secrets
A terrible idea flashed in his mind. Yao Tian settled down and said to Qin Manxiu, who was kneeling on the ground, "Your name is Qin Manxiu?"
"Yes."
"Look up."
The eyebrows under the messy long hair frowned again. There was nothing he could do. His name betrayed him.
Yao Tian, the benefactor in Manxiu's barracks. If possible, Man Xiu doesn't want to stand on his opposite side. But I'm afraid it's impossible. It seems that the last thing Man Xiu wanted to see still happened. Yao Tian became Zhou Ke's person as he wished, otherwise he would not have spent a lot of money to find people who were unfavorable to the Zhou family in Zhou's government.
Yao Tian, can you not help Zhou Ke? Otherwise, one of you and I will eventually be doomed...
Man Xiu raised his head and looked at Yao Tian indifferently.
When he saw Man Xiu's pale and injured face, Yao Tian didn't know whether he should be surprised or as indifferent as Man Xiu.
He should have guessed it was his. Qin Manxiu and Chen Tao are one person.
He is the son of Qin Wei. No wonder he scolded Qin Wei as a traitor. When he was very excited that General Zhou Ke killed the traitor, his expression was so different.
He entered the barracks on Qinfeng Road for revenge. No, it seems to be looking for something than revenge. His meeting with Lord Ge Yimin can be said to be very accidental. It should not seem that he had a plan in advance. After all, who would know that the horse in the barracks would get out of control and almost calm the lives of the adults?
Yao Tian has also been paying attention to the death of Lord Ge in the past two years. However, Chen Tao disappeared, and the little man beside Lord Ge insisted that he had not received any order, let alone that Lord Ge had agreed to meet Qin Manxiu in private. Things seemed to suddenly fall into the fog, leaving only confusion.
Now, Chen Tao appears again. But why didn't the emperor pursue his murder at the palace banquet? As rumored, Lord Ge was not killed by Chen Tao at all, but by someone else.
Yao Tian believes this rumor. Chen Tao's kung fu is best known to him, and he taught it all hand in hand. It seems completely impossible to take the life of the experienced Lord Ge in one move.
However, he did go to see Lord Ge. Everyone knows that Lord Ge once made friends with Qin Wei. Doesn't Qin Manxiu believe the reason why Qin Wei was killed? Or is there any other deal with Lord Ge?
Anyway, Qin Manxiu has a sufficient motivation to visit Zhoufu at night. Because it was Zhou Ke who killed his father with his own hands.
But things are not so simple. How could he become Zhou Xinran's slave again? Why did you enter the palace again? How can you work so well at once? Could it be that he has had any adventures in the past two years?
Most importantly, if he is really the thief who was injured last night, how did he do it? The chains on his hands and feet, the presence of others, the presence of others, the traceless black clothes, even the poisonous dart, even if he was injured by the dart, why did he not see any sign of poisoning?
Yao Tian can't see through Man Xiu. He not only doubts him, but also has too much incomprehensible. What's more, seeing his current faltering appearance and his unchanging stubbornness, for a moment, Yao Tian actually had the impulse to help him. Hopefully, I hope it's not him...
"Why, Vice General Yao knows me as a slave?" It seemed that he also saw Yao Tian's extraordinary expression, and Zhou Xinran asked slowly.
"Miss Hui, I'm not sure. However, this person is indeed very similar to a soldier under his subordinates in the Qinfeng Road barracks in Shaanxi Province. Yao Tian didn't think that the question just now was asked casually by Zhou Xinran. She could bring it back from the palace banquet * Qin Manxiu, and she must have known his identity in the barracks. If she lied at this time, it would cause Zhou Xinran's suspicion. Just tell the truth without breaking it. Let's see what Zhou Xinran means.
"Vice General Yao really has a good eye. He is that Chen Tao!" Zhou Xinran seemed to be very frank and directly revealed Qin Manxiu's identity.
"Ah?" Yao Tian pretended to be surprised and continued to ask, "Isn't Chen Tao at the run because he killed Lord Ge Yimin? Why..."
"Why did you become Miss Ben's slave today? This is not what Vice General Yao should take care of. What Vice General Yao is going to do is to find out who the thief last night was! It's better before Dad comes back!"
Zhou Xinran did not answer his questions. But Yao Tian can also confirm through this that Chen Tao did not kill Lord Ge, otherwise it would not be as simple as a slave. However, General Zhou will return home tonight. Even if there is any delay on the road, it will be tomorrow morning at the latest, and there will be less than one day to find out the thief and the thief who broke into the main courtyard at night...
"Yes." Yao Tian still replied respectfully.
"What, is he the thief or not?"
Yao Tian did not answer, but picked up Man Xiu's right hand in one hand. Man Xiu did not resist, and Ren Yaotian's fingers were on his pulse. Poison dart, it seems that Yao Tian is looking at whether he is poisoned...
"The key to this bracelet is under the care of Uncle Wang?"
For a while, everyone did not answer Yao Tian's. Yao Tian couldn't help but be stunned. This question seemed to be the simplest.
"I threw it into the fire and burned it." Unexpectedly, Zhou Xinran's slow words provoked Yao Tian's already ready-to-moving discord again. Although he is a slave, he doesn't need to be treated like this!
"What, is there a problem?"
"No, there is no problem. Miss Hui, this person was injured all over and could not identify whether there was a dart wound at all. However, she came to report that the thief was hit by his husband's poisoned dart, and there should be signs of poisoning. But this person showed no sign of poisoning. Moreover, since the chain is unlocked, it is impossible to retreat completely under the pursuit of everyone. I'm afraid it's not the person we are looking for.
"Oh? In this way? Then don't waste time here."
Yao Tian and others left, leaving only Zhou Xinran's cold words, "Wash him, clean his clothes, and bring him to see me."
After Zhou Xinran left, Uncle Wang began to curse again. Since early in the morning, he has made such a great effort to beat people. It's really hard. God knows that if he hadn't accidentally stepped on the beans spilled on the ground when he came in the morning, fell hard, and happened to be splashed with bath water by Manxiu, he wouldn't have beaten Manxiu so angrily. But does he know that all this was specially arranged by Manxiu?
"You are responsible for washing him and putting on this clothes!" With Ye Ziqi, Uncle Wang will no longer work hard to do such thankless things. Throw away a single suit and get ready to leave.
"But he has chains on his hands and feet. How can he change his clothes?"
"Idiot, didn't you see that this dress is a shoulder. Just put it on your head and tie a knot next to it? As for the trousers, they haven't been broken much. That's it.
"I have a way to tear the trousers first, put them on, and then sew them up." When Ye Ziqi spoke, there was a gloomy smile on his face, which made Man Xiu feel very uneasy.
"Fuck, you know, what do you still ask me?"
"Ask Uncle Wang, where can I find the needle and thread?"
"Oh, there's a lot in the sewing room. Go and get it. Just say what I said."
"Isn't it a sewing room? OK!" Ye Ziqi's mouth raised a smile again.
Uncle Wang left, and Man Xiu felt that Ye Ziqi had been staring at himself with a little evil smile. Last night, he clearly clicked his sleeping hole. He should not know, but why did he laugh at himself so much?
"Come on, I'll take a shower for you first."
"No, I'll do it myself." This atmosphere is very uncomfortable, and he is also acting, but after all, it is very uncomfortable.
"Can your arm still move? It seems that the injury is not serious?"
Man Xiu didn't know what Ye Ziqi meant. It could be seen that he had been staring at his right arm and couldn't help feeling a little guilty. Ye Ziqi, there is no reason to know...
"I can do it."
"Well, you can wash it yourself. Anyway, you know, I won't wait for others to take a shower, and I have to go to the sewing room!"
The three words "needle room" Ye Ziqi bit very hard, and his heart was shocked.
"Now the whole house is investigating the thief. Do you think if I find strong evidence and make contributions, will the general be happy not only to let me go, but also reward me with a large sum of money?"
Man Xiu just looked quietly at Ye Ziqi with a smiling face, but as if he didn't know what he was talking about.
"I'm going to the sewing room. Do you need it? Can I bring you something back? For example, my original right sleeve, or the scrap line removed from my right sleeve? In the second half of the sentence, Ye Ziqi spoke to Man Xiu in a low voice, but after hearing it, he couldn't help but be shocked, but his face only changed slightly, and then he regained his previous calm.
"It seems that our ability to communicate with each other is really limited. I don't understand what you're talking about at all."
"Don't understand? Haha! Well, let me remind you, when the deputy general lifted my sleeve just now, did you find that the needles and pins on my right sleeve were very special?
Man Xiu understood that Ye Ziqi found the difference in sleeves at that time. When he fled, he saw that his right sleeve was cut and there were blood stains. He knew that if someone came to investigate, he would not escape. Coincidentally, when he passed by the sewing room again, he was in a hurry to find the same fabric, pulled off all the right sleeves of Ye Ziqi's black clothes, and quickly sewed a new one. Naturally, even if others suspect him and check the black clothes on Ye Ziqi, they will never find anything. However, Ye Ziqi, the owner of the black clothes, knows his clothes. The stitches and feet of his clothes are different from other places. Moreover, the needles and threads used by Zhou's clothes are also the best, which are different from those ordinary needles and threads on Ye Ziqi's clothes. As the second son of Ye Ziqi, how can he not recognize good goods? The truth? It is also reasonable to be found by Ye Ziqi. However, Manxiu didn't expect when Ye Ziqi became so smart.
"Did you steal Uncle Wang's clothes to be a thief a few days ago?"
Seeing that Man Xiu did not pay attention to him, Ye Ziqi continued, "Don't be afraid that others will know what you have done. Uncle Wang once heard that his coat was dirty every day because he was in the stable, so he was afraid to change it every day. And it is said that you took the initiative to ask Uncle Wang to wash clothes. If I guess correctly, the time you wash his clothes every day should be when you take a shower in the morning. And at night, you can wear the clothes he changed and do whatever you want!"
" Mr. Ye, you are too imaginative. If I had the ability to fly around, how could I suffer such humiliation here? Why don't you leave early?"
"This is really what I want to know. What is the purpose of you going out every night?"
"Food can be eaten randomly, but you can't talk nonsense. I put on the chain and didn't even have the key to open. May I ask, how can I fly through the wall?
"There is a spare key, right? I accidentally came across your straw mat in the morning. There was no temperature at all. In winter, it is impossible for you to get up as soon as you get up, right? What's more, you still have that thick jacket as a quilt!"
"If you have evidence, go and report me. I don't mind at all."
