Heavy rain is pervasive, which is a rare scene for more than ten years in the early spring when the rain is as expensive as oil.

The rainwater melts the snow and trickles down the stone-paved streets into the stone canals throughout the city, through underground ditches and waterlines, and finally out of the city through the tenons.

This is also the improvement that Jiang Ning made after his arrival on the long-damaged drainage system in the city, which was considered to be a stupid move to build a large number of civil works and waste money and money, but it was just a means to set up a project on the grounds of civil engineering and loot the people's fat and ointment.

Last year, there was little rain in Long'an County, and the people were even more convinced that this mediocre and incompetent county magistrate and the previous county magistrates were all the same, and they were useless except for collecting money.

But when the heavy rain came, and all the streets in the city were full of smooth walking and no shoes, I finally realized Jiang Ning's foresight and took precautions.

For the first time, the public sentiment and public opinion in Long'an County, as well as Jiang Ning's wind comments, appeared to be good.

This made Zhan Yinian, who had already come to Long'an, ready to 'ignore the past suspicions', generously clean up for Jiang Ning, and easily possess Su Que, who had been coveted for a long time.

The teacup slammed into the gray-robed middle-aged man's forehead, and the blood turned into a small snake gurgling down.

"Didn't you say that Yimo is reliable and will never go wrong?" Zhan Yinian said angrily: "Tell me, why is that Jiang Ning still alive?"

"Your Excellency, stop your anger!" the gray-robed man knelt on the ground tremblingly, not daring to gasp, and had already cursed the dead ink thousands of times in his heart.

"Hmph!" Zhan Yinian snorted coldly, and after a small punishment of this unfavorable minion, his anger also dissipated a little, and said: "The matter has come to this, and let that Jiang Ning live a few more days, since that Wei of the Wei family is dead, and two days have passed now, Ning Zhu must also know that I am her true son, let's set off, go to the Li family first, and talk to my father-in-law about getting married." ”

The gray-robed man hurriedly echoed: "What the lord said is very true, and my subordinates will go and prepare." ”

...

Yesterday, when Han He and the others came back, everything had already settled, and even the body of the fortune teller Yimo was directly taken to Yang Qian by Jiang Ning looking for someone.

As Yimo said, when they arrived outside the Li family's mansion, the Li family found various reasons to refuse Han He and Xu Yan to enter the mansion to protect the safety of their young lady, and they had no choice but to take out a long knife with a team of brothers, and the people in the Li Mansion reluctantly got out of the way.

This made Han Yi faintly feel that something was wrong at that time, but he was on a mission, he still let go of the uneasiness in his heart, and after confirming Li Ningzhu's safety, he returned to the small courtyard.

Fortunately, Jiang Ning was safe and sound, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

What made Han Yi puzzled was that the fortune-telling assassin was obviously strong in kung fu, and he knocked out seven or eight people, including Xu Yan, alone, and the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain also successfully broke away from all of them, why did the assassin die in the end?

After returning to the Yamen, Han Yi also asked Jiang Ning specifically about this.

Jiang Ning only smiled sloppily, saying that he was actually a powerful master, but he had never found out.

Han Yi didn't ask any more.

Everyone has their own secrets, and if he can find the whereabouts of the killer through Hotaru City, Jiang Ning may not have no way to solve a killer.

Just ask once, answer or not, it is up to the other party to decide, which is also the tacit understanding that the two have cultivated in the past year.

Jiang Ning was listening to Su Que playing the piano in the pavilion, and the porter reported that Han Zhutou was here again.

When Han Yi walked to the pavilion with an umbrella, the corners of his clothes were still wet from the heavy rain, and the whole person looked a little embarrassed, Su Que's song was just over, he got up and hugged the piano, only nodded with Han Hao, smiled lightly, and gave the pavilion to the two big men, and he left accompanied by the maids.

Han Hao smiled narrowly and said, "It seems that I came at the wrong time, it seems that I have ruined the good times of the adults and the lady." ”

Jiang Ning said angrily: "In the past, you never came to me except when you were eating and drinking, but today you are resting, why did you come?"

Han Yi said: "I thought that Wei Sheng was the murderer of Xiao Man, but I never thought that he would die immediately, but this case has become more and more confusing, yesterday I was ordered by the adults to go to the Li family to protect Miss Ningzhu's safety, but I was obstructed by the Li family's subordinates in every way, obviously they didn't believe what I said at all, and it was even possible to know that their young lady was not in danger early on, this is not like what Li Quanzhang would take the initiative to do, there are obviously people behind this matter." ”

Jiang Ning smiled, but there was no smile on his face, and said, "This person is my old friend." ”

Han Hao was stunned.

Jiang Ning smiled: "It's time to put an end to this matter." ”

"Oh?" Han Yi said in surprise, "That Yimo is just a murder tool, and you don't have enough evidence to charge that person." ”

"No", Jiang Ning said: "I don't need any evidence at all, since he wants me to die so much, and he deliberately chased me to Long'an County for this reason, he will not give up, sooner or later he will attack me again, and then there will naturally be evidence sent to the door." ”

Han He frowned and said: "No, this is too dangerous, his people missed last time, this time they will definitely make all preparations, when the time comes, we may not be able to protect you!"

Jiang Ning smiled: "Naturally, you can't just sit and wait for him to prepare for ......."

"You mean?" Han Yi seemed to think of something, and his eyes lit up.

Jiang Ning said: "That person I know, conceited and narrow-minded, never see others better than him, let alone tolerate other people's provocations, we just need to do something, bad his good deeds, he must be angry, can't wait to be ready to attack again, at that time, our opportunity will come." ”

"Then what should we do?" Han Hao asked.

Jiang Ning said with a smile: "Take all the brothers, follow me to the Li family, and arrest people!"

The rain became heavier and heavier, and there was no trace of snow or ice in sight on the eaves or the streets.

In this kind of weather, no one wants to go out, it is rare for God to give a rest, add some firewood to go to the moisture, pour yourself two sips of wine to warm your stomach, tired, listen to the rain and take a nap, what a comfortable day.

In such a heavy rainy weather that should have been resting and stealing half a day's leisure, there was a team of officials with knives who crossed the street and besieged the entire Li family in the center.

The brothers didn't hold an umbrella, and Jiang Ning didn't hold an umbrella either, and the bean-sized rain fell on their heads, turning into a trickle along the falling hair.

Jiang Ning narrowed his eyes, his eyes were full of coldness.
