Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 427 The tacit understanding between Lao Zhu and Su Jing
The capital, the imperial palace.

Outside Fengxian Hall, Queen Ma rushed back in a furious manner.

"Heavy eight! Heavy eight!"

The continuous shouting was quite urgent, and it was obvious that Queen Ma was very anxious.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately stood up and said, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"

Empress Ma stared at Zhu Yuanzhang with a fierce look on her face and said, "Chongba, you actually hid Mr. Su's matter from me?"

"No, no, sister, didn't we just want to tell you?"

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately explained to Queen Ma: "The incident happened suddenly, so we can only arrange things first."

Queen Ma was still angry and sat directly on Zhu Yuanzhang's dragon chair, forcing Zhu Yuanzhang to stand up: "Then let me tell you what Mr. Su's situation is like now."

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said: "Sister, let me tell you now, but let's make a deal first, don't rush."

Queen Ma nodded and said, "Okay, hurry up!"

Zhu Yuanzhang paused, still hesitant.

He knew that Su Jing's status in Queen Ma's mind was quite high.

If it was known that Su Jing's life or death was uncertain, even if there was a guarantee that there would be no rush, it would be difficult to say.

"Chongba, what's your ink on? Tell me quickly!"

Queen Ma stared at Zhu Yuanzhang, urging him.

Zhu Yuanzhang took a breath and said: "Yesterday, Su Jing had an accident in Lishui County. When he went out, he encountered a huge explosion. Now..."

Lao Zhu still didn't dare to say everything at once.

"What! Chongba! You said Mr. Su had an accident!"

Queen Ma's expression changed suddenly. Before she came, she had only heard a little bit of rumors that there was some trouble with Su Jing.

She didn't expect that this so-called trouble would turn out to be such an accident!
"Sister, don't be impatient..."

"Don't worry! Tell me clearly, how is Mr. Su doing now? Is he injured? Who is the murderer?"

Lao Zhu's words of "don't worry" are of no use to Queen Ma. It's just a reminder.

Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned ugly. He knew it would be such a result.

"Um...sister, Su Jing hasn't been found yet, but she's probably fine."

Zhu Yuanzhang said softly.

did not find!
Queen Ma's expression didn't change, but it got extremely bad.

"Chongpachi! What do you mean you didn't find it? How do you know it's okay if you don't find it?"

Queen Ma stared at Zhu Yuanzhang, the anger in her brows was clearly visible.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said: "Sister, we have sent people to look for him. You know how powerful that kid Su Jing is. He must be fine. He may be watching us somewhere."

Although Lao Zhu said it casually, he could not conceal the seriousness of this matter at all.

Empress Ma said coldly: "Chongba, I know that you sent people from the pro-military Duwei's Mansion to keep an eye on Mr. Su in Lishui County. Now Mr. Su is like something happened under your nose. Is it true?" Are you okay?"

Queen Ma's words clearly pointed to suspicion.

For Su Jing, Lao Zhu trusts her on the one hand, but at the same time he also has a lot of uneasiness.

In this case, Queen Ma believed that it was very likely that Lao Zhu was behind the scenes.

Such a thing would only happen if Lao Zhu wanted to do it himself.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately became anxious: "Sister, it's really not us. If we want to kill Su Jing, can we do this?"

"Besides, for you and Biao'er, I can't possibly touch Su Jing!"

Su Jing's previous predictions about the future fate of Zhu Biao and Queen Ma were told by Lao Zhu to Queen Ma.

Zhu Biao died unexpectedly, and Queen Ma died of illness.

Both of these are Zhu Yuanzhang's untouchable inverse scales.

Therefore, in order to keep Zhu Biao and Queen Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang could not let Su Jing die.

"Then why haven't you found Mr. Su yet?"

Empress Ma still questioned, but she no longer doubted Zhu Yuanzhang.

Queen Ma still knew very well how much weight Zhu Biao and herself had in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "We are investigating, aren't we? This incident happened so suddenly, but judging from the current investigation, Su Jing should not know anything about this accident, so the possibility of his survival is It’s huge.”

"Humph!"

Empress Ma snorted coldly: "Chongba, you'd better pray that Mr. Su is okay, otherwise, I won't forgive you!"

"Yes! We know, we have asked the fourth child to find him."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded immediately.

"Di'er?"

Queen Ma was stunned. She didn't expect that Lao Zhu would ask Zhu Di to find Su Jing.

On weekdays, Zhu Yuanzhang did not like Zhu Di's son very much.

Things have gotten better recently, but Su Jing's matter is still a little too important.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "Yes, when someone came to report Su Jing's situation, the fourth child happened to be there. Didn't he just come back from Su Jing's place? Let him find it easier."

Empress Ma still agreed with this explanation: "It's okay, but this matter is definitely not simple."

"Mr. Su met with an accident in Lishui County. Who did it?"

Queen Ma also visited Lishui County several times and met Su Jing several times.

At the first time, she really couldn't think of anyone who would attack Su Jing.

As for Su Jing's safety, although Empress Ma was worried, she also understood that being anxious was of no use.

At the same time, the various miracles Su Jing had shown before also made Queen Ma feel certain that nothing would happen to Su Jing.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Sister, you are really right. The evidence that has been passed back now shows that an antique shop businessman named Li Mingyou did it, but we think something is wrong."

"Antique dealer?"

Empress Ma frowned and asked, "Business dispute?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "About that. This Li Mingyou is actually the shopkeeper under Su Jing. Because Su Jing was away for too long, he had some other thoughts."

"Then, Li Mingyou seduced several other shopkeepers and wanted to deal with Su Jing together."

"Su Jing naturally wouldn't let him succeed, and easily dealt with them. Then this Li Mingyou made an appointment with Su Jing, and that's what happened next."

As Lao Zhu slowly spoke, the basic context of this matter became clear.

Even in the palace, Lao Zhu's information was extremely well-informed.

Even though it takes about half a day by horse to travel between here and Lishui County, Lao Zhu had already ordered people to start cultivating homing pigeons between the two places last year.

Now, the news from Lishui County has arrived within an hour at most.

"I see, then wouldn't it be enough to arrest this Li Mingyou?"

Queen Ma asked naturally.

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "Things are not that simple. This Li Mingyou seems to have disappeared together with Su Jing in the explosion, and his family also left Lishui County a few days ago and is now missing." Empress Ma After hearing what Lao Zhu said, he immediately said: "Doesn't this just mean that the murderer is Li Mingyou? Is this matter so clear?"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "No, sister, the evidence seems to be too clear, so there is a problem. The most important thing is, why did this Li Mingyou kill Su Jing?"

"Business dispute, for Su Jing's shop..."

Empress Ma was halfway through speaking when she realized something was wrong: "But even if he really kills Su Jing, Li Mingyou won't be able to grab the shop!"

"Is it possible that he thought that after killing Su Jing, he could still get Su Jing's shop without being caught?"

"But if that's the case, why did you send your family away again? This is obviously because you don't want your family to be involved. It seems that you already knew that you would be investigated."

Even though Queen Ma is a prostitute, this idea is still quite clear.

But after listening for a while, I already understood the incomprehension.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "Sister, this is exactly the reason. It seems that Li Mingyou is the murderer with solid evidence, but if you think about it, there are many inconsistencies."

"Moreover, there were many corpses at the crime scene, an abnormal number. At the same time, Su Jing's clothes and jade pendant were all there. There were no blood marks on the clothes, and the jade pendant was only broken into two halves."

……

Lao Zhu continued to share some of the investigated information with Queen Ma, mainly to calm Queen Ma's mood.

"So, Chongpachi, what do you think?"

Queen Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and asked.

Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly: "That's what we think. This accident should be caused by someone trying to use the hands of this Li Mingyou. Who it is needs to be investigated."

"However, Su Jing probably knew something about the situation, and then caused the explosion to make the murderer confused."

"In this way, Su Jing can observe silently in the dark. The murderer will become anxious if he doesn't get the exact information. Once he becomes anxious, he will easily reveal his faults."

"We have to cooperate with Su Jing, so we have people block the news and wait for some abnormal news to appear."

There is still some tacit understanding between Lao Zhu and Su Jing.

Empress Ma asked back: "Chongba, this is all your guess. What if something really happened to Mr. Su and he needed your timely rescue? If you block the news like this, how can you find Mr. Su?"

To be fair, Lao Zhu's analysis was very convincing to Queen Ma.

The possibility is also very high.

But Queen Ma is still worried about Su Jing, because blocking the news means that when looking for Su Jing, the search cannot be carried out publicly on a large scale.

In this way, the information that Su Jing deliberately concealed could be easily known by the murderer, and in this way, the murderer could make the correct response.

However, all this is based on the fact that things are really as Zhu Yuanzhang thought.

If Su Jing is in critical condition now and continues to rescue her, then such a search method may very well delay Su Jing's chance of survival.

Compared to finding the murderer, Queen Ma still wanted Su Jing to be safe.

Zhu Yuanzhang was silent. After a moment, he replied: "Sister, we believe in Su Jing. Su Jing will definitely not let us down, so this time, let's listen to us."

Lao Zhu didn't expect what Queen Ma said.

But Lao Zhu is the emperor, and some things must be done since there is a high enough probability.

Of course, the most important thing is that Su Jing is so trustworthy to Lao Zhu.

"Humph!"

Queen Ma snorted coldly and said nothing more.

It is not that easy to change what Zhu Yuanzhang decided.

"Sister, it's better not to tell Biao'er about this matter."

Zhu Yuanzhang said to Queen Ma.

Zhu Biao!

It can be said that he is the person who cares about Su Jing the most.

If he knew about Su Jing's accident, he might not care about Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts at all.

"You don't need to say that."

Queen Ma left the Fengxian Hall without looking back. Obviously she was not happy with Lao Zhu's treatment.

Everything is based on Su Jing's safety.

Lao Zhu looked at Queen Ma's back, shook his head and sighed: "Su Jing, Su Jing, nothing will happen to you. This time, we really believe that this is the case."

……

On the other side, Jurong County, Dongmingbuhangnei.

"Shopkeeper Zhao, please take me in this time."

In the backyard, Su Jing said to shopkeeper Zhao with a smile.

Shopkeeper Zhao immediately said: "What are you talking about? Dongming Clothing Store wouldn't be able to open if it weren't for the owner. The owner only needs to stay here as long as he wants."

"Haha, then I'll trouble Shopkeeper Zhao."

Su Jing laughed.

That's right, Su Jing was fine at all. He had already settled down in Jurong County through a plan of escape.

Shopkeeper Zhao looked at Su Jing with a strange expression and hesitated to speak.

Su Jing said calmly: "Old Zhao, are you wondering why I brought Li Mingyou here?"

Shopkeeper Zhao immediately said: "Of course my boss has deep intentions for doing this. I dare not speculate, but I just can't figure it out. Why should my boss care about such an ungrateful guy?"

As for the explosion attack in Lishui County, due to Lao Zhu's blockade, there has been no news at all, and Shopkeeper Zhao doesn't know anything about it.

But he knew Li Mingyou's character, and Shopkeeper Zhao was quite disgusted.

Su Jing smiled and said: "This matter is a bit complicated, just wait, you will know it by then."

Su Jing has not yet planned to expose the matter, and it is still in the confidentiality stage.

"My boss doesn't have to be like this. No matter what my boss wants to do, I, Old Zhao, will never give up!"

Shopkeeper Zhao patted his chest: "I still have something to do. If my boss needs it, just ask the clerk directly. I have already said hello."

"Well, go ahead and go ahead. I'm sorry to bother you, Lao Zhao."

Su Jing also nodded, and then walked straight into a room.

"Master, are you sure everything will be fine?"

As soon as Su Jing entered the door, Li Mingyou asked nervously.

Su Jing said calmly: "Li Mingyou, since you chose to believe me before, don't have any doubts anymore."

"At least, according to my plan, you are still alive and well, and no one knows that you are still alive. Isn't this great?"

Although Su Jing appears to be very calm now, in fact, he was panicked to death before.

When Li Mingyou came to see him for the first time, Su Jing sensed something was wrong, brought Li Mingyou into the house, and used some psychological methods to successfully get Li Mingyou to reveal the secret behind the assassination.

Only then did Su Jing take a series of countermeasures, and Jin Chan escaped from his shell and came to Jurong County.

Otherwise, it is really possible that the boat will capsize in the gutter and disappear.
