Chapter 68: Drag Racing in the City (Thanks to Trump for the Monthly Pass)
"Liu Yi, where is that new Zida now?" Situ Nan asked with an eyebrow raised as he drank herbal tea.
"My lord, I will lead him to the back hall to inspect the scope of work of our Five Cities Terracotta Division and some precautions. ”
Liu Yi bent over and half-knelt on the ground with a face that had been whipped by Situ Nan two days ago, and said flatteringly to Situ Nan while taking off his boots, "My lord, don't worry, some core things, small ones will never let him touch them." ”
"Hmm. ”
Situ Nan leaned on the bench and nodded slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly for a while, and he said, "Think of a way to squeeze him away and let the boss come back!"
"This ......"
Liu Yi hesitated slightly when he heard this, this matter is not easy to handle, and it will offend the new Du Lieutenant, so he cautiously persuaded, "Lord Du Wei, this new General Qi Da was obviously planted by Lord Yin and Lord Sima, if we drive one away, we will definitely assign another one, and Lord Du Wei also instructed us not to act rashly during this time......
"I said get him away!"
The teacup in Situ Nan's hand was put on the table, and his eyebrows were raised, "Can't you understand Captain Pontus's order?!"
The leaders of the other family disciples standing behind him patted Liu Yi on the shoulder and said, "Liu Yi, you don't understand, this is Lord Duwei's chance to make up for your sins!"
"If you don't know how to cherish it, you won't have any chance next time. ”
"None of us want it!"
Situ Nan leaned in the chair and sneered slightly, "Don't do it yet!"
"Yes, yes...... I'm going to figure it out!"
Liu Yi complained bitterly.
He had to do all the drudgery and the hard things.
"And those mobs in the city, you send someone to Captain Bendu to keep an eye on it, don't let them make trouble for Captain Bendu again, something goes wrong, and it affects Lord Captain, otherwise I will only ask you about it! ”
Situ Nan kicked Liu Yi, who was kneeling on the ground, and ordered again, if it weren't for Ao Yuejiao's order, he would have ordered people to seal down the Wanji wonton shop.
Liu Yi squeezed out a smile and agreed again and again, "Adults, please rest assured, the small one will definitely be done well this time, and there will never be a half-point difference!"
Even if you can't do it, you have to do it.
Sending Situ Nan away, Liu Yi sighed to the brothers of the five-city soldiers and horses who followed him, "Everyone should think of a way!
Hearing this, the brothers scolded one after another, "Commander, we were also asked to do the drudgery on Dongdajie last time, if it weren't for the princess, they didn't care, and almost offended the entire prison department and the princess of the dynasty, this time we have to do such a big thing as squeezing out Qi Duwei, it's completely because we have no background, it's easy to bully!"
"If we don't do it well, we will not only offend Captain Qi, but also Ling Yin and Master Sima behind us, and we will definitely not be able to mix in the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses. ”
"Those of us from humble backgrounds are cannon fodder!"
……
Everyone was gossiping, Liu Yi didn't know, and said with a wry smile, "Who told us to come from a bad background, and all of us with a good background followed Lord Du Wei to enjoy the blessings." And it is precisely because of his bad background that he climbed for many years to climb to his current position, and he is still walking on thin ice every day.
Everyone was indignant, but there was nothing they could do!
You can only think of things separately.
Liu Yi also took a few people to patrol the streets on horseback, and by the way, he kept an eye on the people so as not to make trouble, and he really couldn't eat and walk around when the time came.
And the next dynasty after the Mi Huang did not return to the East Palace, but took Huang Yuwei and Cheng Qingqing, who had to follow, wandered around the city, this shop looked, that teahouse sat down, looking around looking for people to inquire and inspect.
The two men walked and stopped aimlessly in a carriage.
Coming out of a shop again, Cheng Qingqing boarded their brown canopy carriage, and finally couldn't help asking, "Is it useful for us to wander around like this?"
"Just wait a little longer, they must be waiting for us to find someone first, and then kill people!" said Mi Huang, looking at her at the same time and said, "Didn't you say that you were going to attend a birthday banquet for Mrs. Zhao Hou today, so why don't you go now, it's almost time for lunch?"
"I don't want to go, that Zhou Jinghua is also there!"
Cheng Qingqing pouted and said, "Every time I meet her, I always hear things I don't want to hear." ”
When Mi Huang heard the name of "Zhou Jinghua", she couldn't help frowning slightly, and said, "Didn't she always say that Cheng Jia and I killed her father and killed her whole family, but she must not know that her father Zhou Mu lost his life because he had been working for Ruoao Yuejiao, and the disaster relief case broke out because Yuejiao instructed Zhou Mu to embezzle the disaster food, and Zhou Mu also carried the black pot for him." ”
"What? Zhou Mu was behind the ink greed, and it was instructed by Ruo Ao Yuejiao. ”
Cheng Qingqing couldn't believe it, she had never heard her brother say this, and screamed, "Isn't it too miserable for Jinghua to marry the enemy who killed her father!"
"Sort of!"
Mi Huang nodded.
For Cheng Qingqing, it is still not appropriate to know too much about these things in the court, it is easy to cause unnecessary trouble, tell her not to go everywhere, and say that she will order someone to drive Cheng Qingqing to the door of Zhao Hou's mansion and prepare to leave.
She was putting down the curtain of the car and watching Cheng Qingqing enter the door, out of the corner of her eye, there was a figure not far away who saw her turn around and quickly retracted into the carriage, she frowned, ordered someone to drive immediately, and then sat for a while, took out a bronze mirror from the dark cabinet and placed it in front of the window, half-stretched out of the window, the copper mirror faintly showed a green cloth carriage, and a few suspicious passers-by followed their carriage all the way, this situation was the same as the assassin encountered in Jingling County.
Mi Huang hooked the corners of his lips, "The fish has finally taken the bait." ”
So he said to the person who was driving outside, "One arrow, there is a green cloth carriage behind us for a long time, you walk along Nancheng Street until the end, and then accelerate and turn right onto West Street, and then turn to our destination today." ”
"Yes!"
Yang Youji heard that he drove the carriage steadily with one hand, and when he turned in front, he turned his head to the back, and sure enough, he saw that there was a green cloth carriage following them as the princess said, and then he let Mi Huang sit firmly, and suddenly waved his horsewhip, speeding up to surpass the men and horses of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division in front, and then quickly turned a big corner at the entrance of West Street.
The green cloth carriage behind did the same, accelerating at the same time, surpassing the five cities in front of the Terracotta Division, attracting the surrounding passers-by and the people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division to suddenly turn over on their backs.
Liu Yi was already upset today, and when he saw someone grabbing with him, he immediately scolded, "One of you two, you know that this commander is the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and you actually dare to be the horse of the Commander of the Street Chao Ben, and I arrested them and returned to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division!"
"Yes, Boss!"
"Nonsense!
The driver of the green cloth carriage waved his whip and cursed, and drove away in the dust.
Liu Yi was extremely angry, he was angry in the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and he was angry when he came out, pointing to the fast-moving carriage and horses and ordering people to catch up, and a crazy drag racing and horse chasing suddenly appeared in the Yingdu City.
The coachman on the Qingbu carriage anxiously looked back at Liu Yidao, who was chasing after him, "Commander, what should I do?"
"They've been chasing us!"
Lu Yi, who was sitting in the carriage, frowned and quickly ordered, "You slow down at the entrance of the next alley, let's jump out of the car and leave, don't let people find out my whereabouts, and at the same time order the brothers in the back to continue looking for someone." ”
"Yes, Commander!"
Then, the coachman tightened the reins of the horse, and the two of them took advantage of the slowdown to jump quickly towards the small alley, jumped out of the car, and when Liu Yi chased after him, he only saw an empty carriage, and couldn't help but scold, "Which one dares to surpass the carriage of the commander, and when I meet it next time, I will definitely send it to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to let you eat in prison!"
"Come on, confiscate this carriage!"
"Yes, Boss!"
"Today is really unlucky, it is not good to go out. ”
Liu Yi took people around the neighborhood again, but still didn't see the figure of the coachman in the Qingbu carriage just now, Xiao Lizi, who was hiding in the alley not far ahead, poked his head out and glanced at Liu Yi who was leaving, "Brother Yijian, thanks to this Liu Yi today, things can go so smoothly!"
"Okay, I'll drive the carriage away, you protect the lady!"
Yang Yuji drove the carriage parked on the side of the road back along West Street, and Lu Yi, who was hiding in the flow of people, waited for a while and saw their carriage reappear and beckoned.
"Keep up!"
A group of passers-by in disguise caught up with their carriage again, but they didn't know that in the slum at the other end of West Street, there was another identical canopy carriage parked at this time, and Mi Huang looked at the three men and one woman kneeling in the car, and was slightly twisting his eyebrows: "Xianqing, these are the three people you said escaped?"
Qing'er looked at the three wild dogs and nodded excitedly, "It's the three of them, wild dogs, the fifth, the eighth, they are the three guys who have followed us for the longest time, and they are responsible for finding out the news for Xiao Qi and bringing people to arrest people on weekdays, I never thought that the three of you would be able to escape, but why didn't you go and report to the son?"
"Fourth Miss, we don't want to either!"
The three wild dogs who were secretly found out by Huang Yuwei no longer dared to lie, and the wild dogs immediately confessed, "At that time, I was about to find the seventh prince, but I didn't expect a strange guest to come to the room to talk to the seventh prince, I didn't think much about it at the time, just waited outside, but I didn't expect that the seventh prince was killed in the room at this moment! At that time, I didn't know that this one was the tiger captain!"
"I'm weak alone, so I can only go back and report to the old five and eight, and everyone escaped together!"
"The little three were in the prison department that day, and they didn't mean to deceive the princess, but we didn't tell the truth because we were soft-spoken and wanted to save our lives. The old five even inserted a straw mark on his head, and pleaded again and again, hoping to fight for a light haircut.
The eighth also knelt and nodded honestly.
"Tainu, if we really don't want to report Captain Ruo Ao, we won't report it anonymously. Wild Dog said sincerely.
Mi Huang didn't blame them, but pulled out the straw stuck in their heads, and praised, "No, you three are ruthless and clever, otherwise we won't be able to find any evidence in this case until now, and now we know that we can use this straw to eliminate our suspicions and continue to hide our identities!"
Lao Wu touched the yellow grass on his head and smiled, "Lady, the main thing is the three portraits you have put a bounty, even if we walk on the street, no one will recognize us, so we dare to get one to be inserted on our heads, and sure enough, no one has checked the three of us until now." ”
Xian Qing snorted, "Do you think that just the three of you thieves and rat eyes, if you really draw it, it will be enough for you to be hunted down and killed 10,000 times!"
The three wild dogs shrunk their necks and nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes, what Miss Fourth said is!"
"We're weird!"
"It turned out to be intentional. ”
Mi Huang also nodded, "Do you know why I'm looking for you again now?"
The wild dog shook his head, the three of them have also thought about this question for a long time, it stands to reason that they are the most critical witnesses now, but it is not the three of them who are looking for them all over the street, and now they are secretly coming to arrest them, "But please tell the lady clearly!"
"Because I don't need the three of you to be in court, but I need you to help me complete all the transaction credentials. Mi Huang said.
"It's easy to do!"
Wild dogs are happy, as long as they don't lose their lives, everything is easy to do, "The villain has read books for a few years before, so all the homeless people who are arrested are registered with the villain first, and then submitted to the bookkeeper Mr. Notes, and the villain is responsible for signing and drawing the mortgage one by one, and then sending someone to the designated place to hand over the person." ”
That's why he was able to write such detailed data in a hurry.
Xiao Lizi and Xiao Zhengzi, who were sitting outside, threw their horsewhips, and the carriage quietly drove out of the slum and headed towards the palace.
Wild dogs entered the palace for the first time, and they couldn't help but want to touch everywhere they saw, "This place is really good, it is really the richest place in the world!"
Lao Wu smacked his lips, "If we can stay here for the rest of our lives, we won't have to worry about food and clothing." At the same time, his lustful eyes swirled on the palace maids.
Seeing this, Xian Qing scolded, "Don't embarrass our Xian clan!"
Si Qin also frowned, and said to Xiao Zhengzi, "Xiao Zhengzi, the three of them, you should keep an eye on them, no matter how they look at them, they don't look like people in the palace, and they are easy to show their feet!"
Xiao Zhengzi slapped off the black hand that Lao Ba touched on him, and reprimanded, "It's not impossible for you to stay in the palace all the time, but all the problems of your hands and feet have been corrected for me!
The wild dog patted his chest and swore an oath, "Remember, the villain must cooperate with the various bookkeepers and make up those notes word for word!"
"Hmm!"
In the study, Mi Huang looked at Xian Qing who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "You did a good job, I will write all of this down, and when the time comes, I will reduce the sentence for you and your brother's crimes!"
"Thank you, lady!"
Xian Qing thanked him, and then hesitated slightly, "Tai Nu, the folk girl has something I don't know whether to say or not!"
"You say!" said Huang as she looked at her.
"The situation in the court that day, the folk girl also saw it with her own eyes, even if we find the wild dog now and they make up all the deeds, the case is still very suspenseful, so the folk girl thinks day and night in prison, if you want to prove that if Ao Duwei killed my seventh brother in order to kill people and eliminate the evidence of the crime, the only way to do this is to think of another way. ”
"What a way!" said Huang with a flick of his fingers.
"The princess also knows that the maiden disguised herself as a homeless person and mixed into the eastern suburbs to mix on the building boat of the right disciple, but the princess didn't know that my Xian clan has always pursued a kind of "intermittent" technique, and Xiao Qi and I were both born to concubines and concubines, so we were trained as a guest since childhood, and went around to find out business intelligence for the family, and the folk girl felt that at this time, only by starting from Ruo Ao Duwei and Situ Duwei could we find out the flaws in this case!"
"Intertechnique?"
Mi Huang frowned slightly.
That's a good idea.
"Why are you telling me this?"
Mi Huang looked at Xian Qing who was kneeling on the ground and asked, there is no help in the world for no reason.
"Because the folk girl wants to avenge her only brother, and the folk girl doesn't want to die!" said Xian Qing's voice with a hint of tremor and fear.
She has been sleeping unsteadily for the past few days, thinking that this case will be divided by capital punishment, Xian Gao and Xian Yu are originally making up for it, and this case has nothing to do with them, and it will definitely not be sentenced in the end, she is different, she is with Xiao Qi, and now Xiao Qi is dead, only she can be convicted.
