Default Drum brake issue!!

Hey, somebody please help me!
I noticed that my rear brakes seemed to be dragging, so i took off the wheels and had a look. the right side shoes were cooked, and cracked right in half. Left side was fine. I figured the wheel cylinder failed and caused the right drum to be constantly braking. I bought new shoes and cylinders for both sides, put it all together, and checked it after a short drive, same problem, I burnt my finger on the right drum.

I had the thought occur to check the front left, are the brake lines split diagonally, or front and back??

Thanks for the help
