The legend of Dukang

Chapter 33 The Truth

Jie Tianchou shook his head with emotion: "It can be regarded as fate! Xiao Shilang really died accidentally, and the curse of the bat is a fake. After all, the black-clothed shadow guard is not on the bright side, and it is an old thing from the previous dynasty. The common people don't know about it. So there was a "happiness thief" who punished the evil and promoted the good."

Wen Ruyu nodded.

"As for He Shangshu." Jie Tianchou smiled contemptuously: "His death is not so much an accident, it is better to say that he was scared to death because of his guilty conscience."

"What about the Zhang family that sells silk and satin in the capital?"

"The Zhang family has nothing to do with this matter." Jie Tianchou showed an ambiguous expression: "The two sons of the Zhang family are fond of men, so they sent away the servants that night and hid in the shop drinking and having fun. I accidentally knocked over the candle holder when I was in a state of confusion. After the fire broke out, two young gentlemen escaped. The Zhang family took care of their reputation and did not publicize the matter, and Master Zhang was also pissed off. Zhang's past behavior was wicked Naturally, someone knows about it, so it is logical to put this matter on the 'Fortune Thief'."

Wen Ruyu couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional: It turned out that there was such a truth behind the famous "Fortune Thief" in the capital!And it was all planned by the person in front of him.

Looking up at Jie Tianchou, Wen Ruyu's heart suddenly felt a little chilly, such a confidential matter, Jie Tianchou was so easy to tell the whole thing, is there any conspiracy?

"Actually, I shouldn't tell my virtuous brother more, I've violated the taboo!" As if understanding Wen Ruyu's precautions, Jie Tianchou sighed: "Brother Wei was born in the officialdom since he was a child, and he is used to intrigue, human nature is ugly, Greed and betrayal, but Hong'er let me know that there is "love" in the world, Shen Daoyuan from Cuiping Town let me know that there is still "loyalty" in the world, and your friendship for Jieyou let me know that there is still "righteousness" between people. I am also really happy for Jieyou to have you as a friend! In order to understand you and Dingguohoufu, I ask you to keep today’s affairs a secret! Please don’t blame Jieyou, he didn’t intend to deceive you, but there are some things, It's also a last resort. You two are good friends, and I will ask you to take care of me after I relieve my worries."

After Xie Tianchou finished speaking, he made a big gift to Wen Ruyu.

His words are naturally expressive, touching, and quite sincere.

Wen Ruyu groaned in her heart: How can this kind of words have a feeling of entrusting Jieyou for life.

He quickly helped Jie Tianchou up, and said: "Don't worry, brother, since the matter has been discussed, the younger brother is not a stingy person, and will definitely keep it secret. Your official affairs are too messy, and I don't care about it! But I have to say It’s also your fault for being stingy, back then in Cuiping Town, if you had given me some snacks, I wouldn’t have been so hungry to dig through your bags and find that terrible sachet!”

Jie Tianchou patted Wen Ruyu's hand with a smile, and said: "It's not because of my brother's stinginess. At that time, I was afraid that I would not have time to get in the way, so I put some sweat medicine in the snack. It would not be a bad thing if you swallowed it by mistake!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and raised their teacups together, smiling away their grievances.

"However, I'm still very curious. What kind of secret could destroy the entire capital? Since Ling Jueding thinks this plan is sinister, why didn't he just destroy it and leave the clues in the Xuantian Sword instead?" Wen Ruyu asked.

Jie Tianchou shook his head: "I didn't find anything on the Xuantian Sword. I'm afraid only Ling Jueding and that quack warlock know about it. Now that the two are dead, the Xuantian Sword has been handed over to the emperor, and the emperor will look at it." done."

Seeing Wen Ruyu's regretful face, Jie Tianchou persuaded: "The more we know about this kind of thing, the more dangerous it is. It's better for us not to know."

Wen Ruyu nodded in agreement, and thought to herself: It's better not to come to the capital in recent years, so as not to know how to die.

After seeing off Jie Tianchou, Wen Ruyu got up and walked into the private room next door, where Du Shaokang was drinking tea, and there was a faint scent of tea in the air.

Du Shaokang raised his eyes and saw Wen Ruyu coming in, and said indifferently: "He has already left?"

"Well, I've already left. Things are similar to what my husband guessed." Wen Ruyu sat down opposite him.

Du Shaokang smiled lightly: "I just expressed my doubts, and Mr. Wen discovered the other things himself."

Wen Ruyu disagreed, put down the teacup and said, "If it wasn't for the sir's suggestion, I wouldn't have thought of so many doubtful points that I usually ignore, so sir, don't refuse. Although Xie Tianchou is cunning, since he is willing to tell the whole story, It seems that I still have a lot of trust in my little brother." Having said this, Wen Ruyu couldn't help feeling a little relieved.

"Jie Tianchou said that you are simple-minded and easy to trust others. It seems that you are right." Du Shaokang couldn't help pouring cold water on him: "Since you have exposed his tricks, continuing to quibble will only embarrass yourself, so why not explain it honestly, So as not to lose his identity. After all, Jie Tianchou is Jieyou's elder brother, and there is still a sense of aloofness in his bones."

Looking at Wen Ruyu's shocked face, Du Shaokang smiled and continued to make up his sword: "The organization that Jie Tianchou said is so powerful, not only does he have eyeliners in the officialdom, but he also has a background in the world. If he wants to completely wipe it out, he will be indispensable in the future." Use your place in Tianyun Villa. Let me tell you clearly now, it’s just to say hello in advance, so that I can handle things in the future.”

Seeing Du Shaokang's rare playful expression, Wen Ruyu asked with certainty: "The person who persuaded Shen Daoyuan to let us go in Cuiping Town was Mr.

Du Shaokang was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Wen Ruyu's Tianyun fan on the table, and finally did not deny it.

Wen Ruyu held the fan in his hand and played with it: "Sir and Xie Tianchou all think that I have no intentions and don't understand the city government. But in life, the most important thing to treat others is sincerity! What's the point if you have to calculate everything! After all, there is no People are fools, how many times have they suffered losses and can't remember their lessons?"

As if he didn't expect Wen Ruyu to say such profound words, Du Shaokang looked at him with some approval and some entanglement in his eyes.

Wen Ruyu continued: "But I don't like being favored by others in a daze. Why did Mr. Du help us? Please tell me the truth!"

Du Shaokang withdrew his gaze, and said lightly: "I just want to ensure the safety of Cuiping Town. I'm going back to the capital with you, and I also want to make sure that Jie Tianchou will keep his promise."

"Just because of that?"

Du Shaokang looked at Wen Ruyu's suspicious gaze, smiled, and was about to say something, when his expression suddenly changed, and he coughed quickly, covering his chest.

I know that Du Shaokang is not in good health, but I have never seen him get sick.This cough came too suddenly, Wen Ruyu stared blankly at his coughing pain, and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Du Shaokang's originally pale face became even paler. He tremblingly took out a square scarf from his arms and tightly covered his mouth, as if this could relieve the pain.

Wen Ruyu looked at his violently rising and falling chest, and hurried over to give him relief.

After another stick of incense, Du Shaokang barely stabilized, put away the square scarf in his hand, and Wen Ruyu clearly saw a little bit of blood red on it.

Du Shaokang's face was still pale, he looked at Wen Ruyu's worried eyes and smiled weakly: "It's an old problem!"

Looking at his pale face, Wen Ruyu couldn't bear it, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of disease does Mr. suffer from, such a severe cough?"

Du Shaokang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brought from the womb, it's just that the attacks have become more and more frequent in the past few days." He took a breather, looked at Wen Ruyu and said with a smile: "Young Master Wen, don't worry. I am just an insignificant sick child, with no power, no power, and no ability to stir up any troubles. If Jie Tianchou can fulfill his promise to Cuiping Town, today's matter can only be treated as if you and I have heard a story!"

Since Du Shaokang didn't want to make trouble, Wen Ruyu immediately felt relieved.Thinking of the tragic state of his illness just now, Wen Ruyu felt a little unbearable: "Then Mr. has plans for reconciliation in the future? Why don't you come back to Tianyun Villa with me, and I will ask the doctor to show you."

Du Shaokang declined with a smile: "If you know a little more about medical skills, you can take care of it yourself, so you don't have to bother Mr. Wen."

The herbal tea prepared by Du Shao himself can be praised by Dr. Hu, so he wants to learn some medical skills.But seeing that he was seriously ill and alone, Wen Ruyu couldn't help persuading him: "Doctors don't heal themselves. In a few months, there will be a hero meeting, and all famous people in the world will participate. Why don't you go with us, sir? Take care, maybe you can meet some miracle doctors!"

Du Shaokang smiled: "Thank you, my lord, for your kindness, but I still have one wish left unfulfilled, and I must do it before I die, so I won't bother you."

Hearing that he was going to leave, Wen Ruyu was instantly reluctant, and wanted to persuade him again, but seeing Du Shaokang's firm expression, he had no choice but to give up: "Since Mr. is determined to do so, I can only wish Mr. a smooth journey." From the sachet on the fan, I took out the "flooding flower medicine", put it into a dark brocade bag, and pushed it in front of Du Shaokang: "Mr. is alone and sick. I am really worried. This is The tokens of Tianyun Villa, people in the Jianghu will give some thin noodles, please accept it, sir."

Looking at Wen Ruyu's earnest eyes, Du Shaokang was silent for a long time, and finally did not refuse: "If so, thank you, Mr. Wen."

Seeing that he had accepted his token, Wen Ruyu was suddenly a little happy.

Du Shaokang stared at the swaying sachet under Tianyun's fan, and slowly said: "The orchid on this sachet, Mr. Wen, is very delicate, who embroidered it?"

Wen Ruyu added tea to Du Shaokang indifferently, and said with a smile: "Su Qingyu, the former head of the Su family."

"Oh, so it's the Su family in Suzhou?" Du Shaokang muttered softly.

Wen Ruyu didn't pay attention to his erratic eyes for a moment, and continued: "Can I ask sir a question?"

"Please speak, Mr. Wen."

"In Cuiping Town, you didn't get along too much with Yunheng, and there are many things you don't know. How can you be sure that Jie Tianchou is Fang Yunheng from Cuiping Town?"

Du Shaokang took a sip of tea, smiled, and uttered two words that made Wen Ruyu vomit blood: "Feeling."
