Husband and Father Youwei

Chapter 84 Old Things

  Dong Chang woke up suddenly, and before he could get angry, he saw two complete strangers standing in front of him, and subconsciously wanted to yell, but when he moved, he realized that he was actually tied up. He tried his best to struggle, but he couldn't break away. It was good that he had been the master for more than ten years. After understanding the current situation, he quickly calmed down and stopped struggling in vain. He raised his eyes and looked at the standing Tu Lin among Ruan Tang and Su Bai.

Seeing that Dong Chang had calmed down, Tu Lin said, "Let me introduce myself. The boss may not know me, but he must know me. After all, you sent Jiang Biao, Hei Wu, and Qiao Xing to kill me the day before yesterday." The whole family?

Although Tu Lin's tone was very calm, Dong Chang's expression changed instantly. He never thought that the people in front of him were the Tu family who he thought had died at the hands of his subordinates, and his eyes widened suddenly. , and after a brief shock, he shook his head vigorously, biting the cloth strip in his mouth and whimpering, trying to speak.

"The master has something to say? "Tu Lin played with the dagger in his hand, and said with a smile: "That's fine, your last words will always satisfy you. "After that, he stretched out his hand and took out the cloth strip that blocked Dong Chang's mouth. As for whether Dong Chang would call out, he was not worried. He still had his dagger in his hand, and Ruan Tang's crossbow was already aimed at him. Dong Chang, no matter how fast the person Dong Chang called came, he would not be as fast as his dagger and Ruan Tang's arrow.

Dong Chang obviously understood this, so after he was able to speak, he did not call anyone, just He looked very eagerly and said to Tu Lin: "Brother Tu, Hero Tu, although I did send someone to your house, but I was also instructed by someone. There is someone else who really wants to kill your family—

" There was speculation, but Tu Lin's expression changed immediately upon hearing this, he frowned, stared sharply at Dong Chang and asked, "Who is it? "

Tu Lin's acting skills are good. Dong Chang has not seen that Tu Lin has no real intention to kill him. He just wants to pass the threat of his life, so that he can't think too much in a panic, and explain the people behind the scenes. That's all.

Sure enough, seeing that Tu Lin believed his words, Dong Chang immediately said in order to save his life: "It's your stepmother. She said you killed her son and asked me to kill your whole family to pay for her son's life. Your family's situation is also hers." She told me that she personally took Jiang Biao and the others to identify the door of your house..." Before

Dong Chang could finish speaking, Tu Lin frowned and interrupted him, saying: "This is impossible, Lijiagou It is more than a hundred miles away from Heihu Mountain, and my stepmother is just a country woman, how can she know you, the bandit leader of Heifeng Village?" "

I'm telling the truth!" Seeing Tu Lin's disbelief, Dong Chang's face became more and more serious Panicked, he hurriedly said: "I have evidence, I have a letter, the letter she wrote to me, she wrote it herself, and the reason and process are clearly written on it." Tu Lin couldn't help raising his eyebrows, originally he only wanted to

write Let Dong Chang identify Li's confession, and then let him draw a bet. Unexpectedly, there will be unexpected gains. Li's autograph is more powerful evidence than oral confession.

Tu Lin asked Dong Changxin where he was again, and following Dong Chang's instructions, Ruan Tang went to his inner room and found a wooden box hidden in a dark compartment behind the big bed in the inner room. The wooden box was locked, and the key was hanging around Dong Chang's neck, but he had torn it off when he came.

When I opened the wooden box, I saw stacks of books, papers and envelopes inside. Ruan Tang read them one by one, and found that there were two account books, a thick pile of banknotes with a denomination of one hundred taels, and more than a dozen letters. Among them, Ruan Tang found a letter from Mrs. Li. And there are as many as five.

Ruan Tang didn't open the letter right away, but went back to the clean room with the wooden box in his arms, and handed the five letters related to Mrs. Li to Tu Lin.

Tu Lin opened the five letters one by one to read, but as he watched, his complexion couldn't help but become weird, but he finally understood how Li Shi could find the head of the Heifengzhai .

Only one of the five letters is recent, and the other four are all more than ten years ago. According to the letter, it turns out that Li Shi and that Dong Chang had a marriage contract more than twenty years ago. .

But because Dong Chang accidentally killed someone and fled from home not long before the wedding date, the two failed to get married as scheduled. And in less than a month after that, Mrs. Li married Tu Fu, a widower who was nearly ten years older than her, and already had a son and a daughter as his successor.

A few years later, Dong Chang entered the Heifeng Village and turned into a bandit, but he couldn't let go of his family and fiancee, so he kept coming and going secretly. But Mrs. Li was already married, and she resented Dong Chang for abandoning her back then, and she didn't want to have any relationship with him anymore, so she broke off the relationship.

Until a few days ago, because of Tu Wendong's death, in order to avenge Tu Lin, Li thought of Dong Changlai again, and sent a letter stating all the reasons to Dong Chang through Dong Chang's family.

Tu Lin also had doubts when he got the memory of the original body at the beginning. Li's appearance and family background are not bad, and as the niece of the village head of Lijiagou, she was not worried about marrying, so why did she end up marrying a widower? Woolen cloth?

Now that he saw these letters, he found the answer. It turned out that Li Shi and Dong Chang had a secret marriage during their marriage. Later, Dong Chang ran away, and Li Shi had no choice but to marry Tu Fu with a child. Tu Wendong, whom his father holds in his hands like pearls and treasures, is actually the child of Li Shi and Dong Chang.

What was the specific situation back then, how did the Li family hide it from Father Tu and that Grandfather Tu Lin gave birth to Tu Wendong? , but he couldn't help but feel a little bit embarrassed.

After Tu Lin finished reading the letter, he showed it to Ruan Tang, who looked at Dong Chang who was very anxious at the moment, and said, "No wonder you agreed to Mrs. Li's request, because you also wanted to do something for your son. Revenge?"

Dong Chang quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, although Xiuhe, no, it's Mrs. Li, she said that Tu Wendong is my son, but she told me when she asked me to deal with your family. I actually didn't believe it at all, but after all, I betrayed her back then and delayed her life. It was also to make up for what I owed her back then, so I finally agreed to her."

Tu Lin couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this, he didn't know whether Dong Chang was trying to avenge Tu Wendong, but he didn't believe it at all when he said it was to compensate Mrs Li. If he was just an ordinary family in the countryside, and he didn't set aside such a small family business, how could Dong Chang, who was as shrewd and cautious as Dong Chang, risk being discovered by the government to deal with him in Zhuxi Village, which is very close to the county seat?

But there is no need for Tu Lin to let Dong Chang know these words. Now that the evidence to convict Li has been obtained, Tu Lin's purpose of this trip has been achieved halfway, so he turned around and let Su Bai stun Dong Chang again.

He didn't want Su Bai but didn't move, but said, "Can I ask him a few words?"

Tu Lin glanced at Su Bai, but didn't say anything, nodded, and moved away from Dong Chang. Su Bai was very familiar with Dong Chang's residence before, which made Tu Lin feel a little confused. Later, without thinking, Su Bai came up with a way to transfer the guards away from the mountain, and Tu Lin knew that Su Bai should be just like them. , came to the bandit stronghold to have some plots, that's why he had prepared and planned in advance, so he was not surprised to hear what Su Bai said at this moment.

Su Bai walked up to Dong Chang, his face was serious, but there was sadness and hatred in his eyes, the hand hanging on the side of his body clenched into a fist, as if he was suppressing something, and asked Dong Chang in a hoarse voice: "Four years ago, in April of the 16th year of Longwu, Master Wen of Langzhou Chenghuang Shangwen Family was attacked and killed on the official road from Wuping County to Fucheng. Did you do this?" Dong Chang couldn't help but

think Surprised, Tu Lin and Ruan Tang, who were looking at other letters and account books in the wooden box, also looked at Su Bai at the same time, with surprise in their eyes.

Dong Chang didn't want Su Bai to suddenly bring up this old incident several years ago, and asked subconsciously: "How do you know?!

" I was stabbed, but I survived by luck, and just before I passed out, I heard the person who killed Master Wen say the word Heifengzhai." Su Bai said, the hatred on his face became stronger.

Thinking of something, Dong Chang couldn't help saying: "So, you were arrested and taken into the cottage on purpose, and you wanted to kill me to avenge Master Wen?" "Kill

you?" Su Bai sneered, and said, "If I If I want to kill you, can I still allow you to live till now? I am indeed not good at medicine, that is because I only learned from my master how to make poison to kill people and how to use silver needles to harm people, do you want to try it?" With a silver needle, he wanted to stab Dong Chang.

Dong Chang immediately showed fear, and tried to hide back, saying in his mouth: "I have no enmity with Master Wen, someone bribed me and asked me to take someone to rob and kill Master Wen! It's useless if you kill me, Your real enemy is not me at all, if you let me go, I can help you, I will help you kill the person who really murdered Master Wen, and help you avenge—" Dong Chang's words had an effect, and Su Bai stopped after hearing

it He moved, but did not take back the silver needle, and asked: "Who bribed you?"

Looking at the silver needle so close at hand, Dong Chang could only say: "It's the Jiang family, the Jiang family in Langzhou City!" "

... The Jiang family, sure enough, it really is them." At this time, Su Bai's face no longer had any gloomy hatred, and turned into a somewhat stunned look, as if he had expected it, but at the same time he didn't want to believe it. He even dropped the silver needle in his hand. fell to the ground.

Seeing that Su Bai stopped asking questions and was in a daze, Tu Lin and Ruan Tang looked at each other without saying anything, and the room became quiet all at once. But he didn't expect that at this moment, a sudden change occurred. For some reason, the rope that was originally tied to Dong Chang suddenly loosened and fell off. Dong Chang jumped up suddenly, grabbed Su Bai's neck, and pulled Su Bai to block himself. In front of him, he held a small razor in his left hand and pressed it against Su Bai's neck.

At this time, Dong Chang no longer saw the fear and panic just now, and his exposed half face was full of smirks and he said loudly: "If you dare to move, I will slit his neck! Back off!"

As soon as Dong Chang moved, Tu Lin and Ruan Tang noticed it, but Su Bai was too close to Dong Chang, and they were two or three meters away from Dong Chang, so they couldn't stop him in time. Although Ruan Tang immediately raised the crossbow, but Dong Chang hid behind Su Bai, he was afraid of throwing a mouse, so he didn't dare to shoot it easily. On the other hand, Tu Lin had already hidden his hand behind his back and took out the wooden warehouse from the space, but he didn't show it to prevent Dong Chang from arousing his vigilance.

Although once the gun is taken out, it is bound to be hidden from Su Bai. But Su Bai always helped them, and it sounds like there are some unfortunate people who passed by. Tu Lin couldn't just watch Su Bai die. As for whether Su Bai would doubt anything, he had already thought of a reason.

The Great Zhou Dynasty already had firearms and cannons, and they were very popular, and the court encouraged maritime trade, so many people from other countries often came to Great Zhou to do business. He just needs to tell Su Bai that he got the gun from a foreigner.

At such a short distance, as long as Dong Changwei showed his head, he could kill him with one shot, but Tu Lin didn't shoot for a while because he suddenly heard some noisy movements from outside.

Before Tu Lin could hear what it was, someone outside Dong Chang's house suddenly slammed on the door vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Master, Master, wake up, the government has sent troops up the mountain, and they have already arrived at the gate of the village. Head of the house—"
