    After leaving the prison, Li Tang went to the Eight Immortals to meet with Chu Tian and asked them how many of them had eaten. It happened that they ate half of the meal, and Li Tang was lucky enough to eat the mouthwatering suckling pig.  It's the oil star, and Xiaolan's heart is even worse, holding the pork knuckle with both hands and lying on it, eating and saying yes, her face is already covered with oil.

    After eating, several people walked towards the North Garden of the Chu Family. Along the way, Li Tang was thinking about his last question that Zheng Yaozu answered in the prison.

    Zheng Yaozu was indeed used as a scapegoat. According to various signs before, Pei Yuanying's goal was to gain meritorious service against the Chu family, so as to achieve his goal of being promoted to the ranks. The Chu family was the largest dark dart business in the Qingcang Dynasty.  A group of people, in recent decades, Qingcang has been flourishing, Emperor Qianyou has been diligent in governing the country, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the people's livelihood is prosperous. The household department court collected various taxes in a timely manner.  This kind of smuggling escort is not so strict, which is also an opportunity for the Chu family to rise rapidly in the past two decades.

    However, lax arrest does not mean no arrest. A few years ago, the imperial court also arrested a batch of smuggled dark darts in the southern frontier. The Qipin county magistrate who solved the case was directly promoted to two ranks, and was promoted to Liangjiang from the fifth rank magistrate.  Going from the impoverished land of birds to the rich Liangjiang, the benefits are naturally needless to say. Because of this, Pei Yuanying paid more attention to the Chu family. However, the Zheng family who should have been arranged in one of them  Unfortunately, the warehouse was set on fire by Chu Tianwen, and Pei Yuanying's plan fell short, so he was so angry that he attacked the Zheng family.

    The crime assigned to the Zheng family is the heinous crime of treason, which is sharper than the smuggling of the Chu family's dark darts. If Zheng Yaozu's case is confirmed, then Pei Yuanying will not only be able to leave Lingxi Town, but may even become a court official.  The hottest celebrity, after all, since the Qianyou Dynasty, apart from Li Zongye in the early Qianyou period who was commendable for repelling the invasion of foreign enemies and crushing the party struggle in the court, those ministers have not done anything since Li Zongye was demoted for nearly fifteen years.  What is worth boasting about is that Emperor Qianyou was too smart, so that the brilliance of his subjects could not be revealed.

    Zheng Yaozu in the prison pondered for a moment, he didn't know why he was the scapegoat, he just knew that he couldn't think of why he would do something wrong to the Chu family, so he said: "If I, Zheng Yaozu, see the sun again, I will definitely be with you."  I became brothers with Chu Tianwen, even if you don't recognize me, I will remember this kindness in my heart, and I will not do anything to be sorry for the Chu family.  Being scolded by the world, I want to take over the family business, so that my father can relax a little bit, so he won't be traveling around all the year round at such an old age."

    After hearing Zheng Yaozu's reply, Li Tang smiled slightly, said nothing else, turned around and left the prison, leaving Lao Zheng and Zheng Yaozu cuddling each other and crying bitterly.

    "Brother Tang, what are you thinking so hard that you didn't even hear Miss Wenyu's questioning?"

    Chu Tian¡¯s question made Li Tang withdraw from his thoughts just now. After he settled down, he turned his head to look at Xie Wenyu and the others. At this moment, they happened to pass by a watermelon stand, and it will be July and June soon.  It was the end of the three seasons, and the hot weather was unbearable. The few people who had just finished eating walked slowly along the street to Chu's house. On the way, they would inevitably encounter some vendors selling summer-only items.

    "Li Tang, I want to ask you something, do you want to eat watermelon?" Xie Wenyu shouted loudly while carrying two pieces of watermelon, Xiao Lanxin who was beside her couldn't help her greed, so she picked up a piece and gnawed it wantonly.

    "Oh, I was distracted just now, eating watermelon? Okay, let's have a piece, just to relieve the heat."

    Li Tang stepped forward to take the watermelon in Xie Wenyu's hand. Xie Wenyu gnawed out two crescents on two pieces of watermelon in a bad mood, and then pushed one of them in front of Li Tang. Li Tang subconsciously reached out to take it.  Looking at the crescent on the top, he couldn't help but feel speechless. He looked at Chu Tianwen who had a strange light in his eyes, and gave him the watermelon in his hand. After taking the watermelon, Chu Tian asked carefully and carefully  After scrutinizing it for a moment, he gnawed wantonly, making Xie Wenyu laugh out a string of silver bells.

    "Oh, it's so hot this day, Li Tang, why did you go there before, the delicious roast suckling pig in Baxianju called you late, did you secretly go to meet your concubine in Lingxi Town  See you again? Next time I see Han Shenger, I will tell her that you have someone outside." Xie Wenyu said to Li Tang with a smirk while holding a piece of watermelon.

    "Let's eat your melon!" Li Tang pinned Xie Wenyu's head on the watermelon in an angry manner. Xie Wenyu struggled to raise his head, with a watermelon seed on his face.

    Chu Tianwen on the side also finished eating the piece of watermelon and walked over, following Xie Wenyu's words.He said, "That's right, Brother Tang, what did you do just now?"

    "It's okay, I just went to see an old friend." Li Tang replied.

    "Old friend? Do I know you?"

    "I only know a few people in Lingxi Town. There is no one you don't know. I will tell you in detail when I get back. You have to know about this." Li Tang turned his head and ignored Chu Tian's question, then looked at Busy  Xie Wenyu, who was looking for a handkerchief to wipe her face, and Xiao Lanxin, who was eating happily at the side, really didn't know how big the appetites of these two girls were. They said they were full when they ate the roast suckling pig, but now they are eating watermelon.  There is no end to getting up.

    "Have you finished eating, shall we go back?" Li Tang asked.

    Xie Wenyu came out from the watermelon stand, turned around and said, "Sister Lan Xin, let's go, let these two people stay here by themselves, boss, these two people will pay." As they spoke, the two were happy  He ran away arm in arm and hopped on his feet, as if he had done a particularly happy thing.

    Chu Tianwen was undoubtedly responsible for paying the money. As the two walked on the road, Li Tang told Chu Tianwen what he had learned about the source of the documents of the Zheng family and his intention to rescue Zheng Yaozu.  Wei Wei nodded and did not express his opinion. For him, these things have already passed, and he couldn't think of any connection between them. Li Tang also knew that things would happen like this.  He lives in his house, but in fact there is another relationship. The Xuan Tang I am currently working for is under the Chu family. There are some things that need to be done well with this difference in status.

    Xie Wenyu and Xiao Lanxin were already running away when they were talking about the secrets, so they were pacing slowly at this time, digesting what they ate just now, and chatting with each other about romantic affairs  , While talking, we talked about Zhao Xiaowu who was assigned by Li Tang as a first-class detective.

    Zhao Xiaowu is promising. Under the training of that first-class detective, Zhao Xiaowu is not very clear about the duties of the spy at the beginning, but Zhao Xiaowu is willing to work hard.  Give him some new things, and write down his experience on paper overnight for Zhao Xiaowu to recite. After Zhao Xiaowu finished reciting, he asked Chutian for advice. Chutian laughed, and immediately let him go.  Looking for his elder brother Chu Tianhan.

    Chu Tianhan talked about some cloudy things that made Zhao Xiaowu puzzled, but Zhao Xiaowu was not ashamed to ask, and finally annoyed Chu Tianhan, and personally demonstrated the formation for Zhao Xiaowu to break through.  Wu suffered several times because of this, and finally figured out his own set of plans bit by bit. Although it is not strong enough now, it can barely meet the standard of Class C sniffing, which already makes Li Tang feel enough.  Surprised.

    Just as he was about to reach a turning point at the gate of the Chu family, Li Tang turned his head inadvertently, and a sneaky figure suddenly flashed by.  I asked and pulled it over.

    "Brother Tang, what are you looking at? Why do you feel weird recently? Since I set that fire on Zheng's house, you've been absent-minded all day long. What's going on?"

    "Oh, it's nothing, I just saw a sparrow when I turned around, and I stared at it and flew away, and I couldn't find it when I went to look for it, alas, to tell you the truth, I was indeed caught by Zheng Yaozu's these two days  The matter was so disturbing that Zheng Yaozu was accused of hiding military equipment for the purpose of treason. This is a serious crime that would implicate the entire family. If he pleaded guilty, not only the more than 100 members of the Zheng family compound would be buried with him, but also the Zheng family.  All the bodyguards in the bodyguard bureau will die, I really can't bear to watch those innocent people die for nothing."

    "Brother Tang, don't worry too much. I did it abruptly. I didn't discuss it with you beforehand. However, you can do as much as you can. Don't get too entangled. Life is impermanent.  There are so many things that no one cares about, how much can we care about alone? Just relax." Chu Tianwen comforted Li Tang, and he sighed helplessly.

    "I hope so. Zheng Yaozu's nature is not bad. He was led to ruin by Brother Pei. Now he has sincerely repented. I went to see him in prison this morning, and he told me all the stupid things he did since he was a child.  , Alas, I really don't understand, how could Second Brother Pei be such a person?"

    "I don't understand this. Pei Yuanying is a wolf with ambition. When I was a child, I didn't see anything when I played together. I only realized it after I accepted my own business. His bureaucratic air is annoying, and he is not quite like other ordinary officials.  Similarly, other officials are nothing more than becoming an official to make a fortune, but Pei Yuanying is not interested in these properties, and all he wants is to climb up. Maybe the number one person in the Qian'an Palace in the capital is what he wants, who knows? Brother Tang,  In vain, you are so smart in ordinary times, but now you are in the middle of the game and you are delusional, let's go, haha."

    "Maybe." Li Tang also sighed, but he has no interest in the fact that he misunderstood Pei Yuanying. At present, there are only two things, the first and the most important one, how to help Zheng Yaozu out of trouble  Second, who sent the person who just hid aside to watch him?.  "
