Qin Hanzhen liked his grandmother Niu during the day, and at night his grandfather Mr. Qin was not at home, Niu was afraid that his granddaughter would go out in the warm house and blow the cold wind, so he simply let her spend the night in the main house and sleep with him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoTherefore, Qin Hanzhen also heard Mama Hu's report.

Knowing that the officers and soldiers who were imprisoned in the county jail said such things, Qin Hanzhen and the Niu family looked at each other and were puzzled.

Niu asked Mama Hu: "What do these officials and soldiers mean when they say that they can't see the light of day and hide in Linxian? Who are the people from the capital?"

Mama Hu spread her hands: "How do I know this? The old man of our family just listened to the people from the county government, and the old man did not allow him to ask more, and he didn't know the reason." ”

Qin Hanzhen turned his head to the Niu clan and said, "Grandmother, these officers and soldiers must have done something bad, and they were afraid that they would be punished if they were discovered, so they hid." ”

Niu nodded slowly, with a blank expression: "But what bad things have they done? They have all been arrested and put in prison, and they still refuse to tell it?"

"That must be a very important matter!" Qin Hanzhen said categorically, "Didn't the person in the back still say that if the things above were broken, they would still give their lives?" So they would rather be caught and put in prison as horse thieves by the people of the county government than confess what they had done, because running far away from the station to block the road and rob a car would not let them lose their lives." ”

Niu Shi thought so: "That's right! Since they are good friends with He Ziyu, they are definitely not good people, and they don't know what kind of disaster they have caused." But now that they've been arrested, they won't end well. ”

Qin Hanzhen was stunned, and felt that something was wrong: "But...... They seem to be living at peace in prison, aren't they afraid that something will happen if they are caught?"

Niu was confused: "Sister Sang, what are you talking about?"

Qin Hanzhen blinked, shook his head, and asked Mama Hu again: "Mama, did Uncle Hu say that after hearing the jailer's return, what did the county magistrate think?"

Mama Hu hurriedly said: "I said it, but the county magistrate was also confused, I only heard them talk about the people from the capital, it sounded like a big case, and sent someone to Suide Prefecture to deliver a letter." ”

Mizhi County is under the rule of Suide Prefecture, and the county commander is greeting his boss, if there is really something, there will be someone to put pressure on him.

Niu Shi snorted: "It sounds weird, but what does it have to do with our family?

Mama Hu said: "The old man of our family said that Jinhuan made it clear that there were twenty officers and soldiers invited by He Ziyu, but in fact only sixteen came to block the way, four or five of them were arrested, and the others fled with the He brothers and sisters, but four of them never showed up from the beginning to the end, but they received twenty taels of silver for nothing. And the man who was with them in a small banner said, "The money is not for the white." Master Qi was a little suspicious, and the people who were ambushed in the forest and shot arrows at our carriage were probably these four people. Seeing that the situation was not good, they fled by themselves, and did not show any traces. ”

Qin Hanzhen glanced at Mama Hu in surprise, thinking that those who fired the arrows were clearly inseparable from his cousin Wu Shaoying, and he didn't know how to frame the blame on the heads of that group of officers and soldiers. If the fleeing people can't show up to explain the situation, I'm afraid that this black cauldron will be detained on their heads. Qi Master Book...... It seems that Uncle Wu did something.

Mama Tiger said again: "I heard that those two little flags have never been harmonious, but they are just affectionate on their faces." This time, I was willing to come to the rice fat, and it was also for the sake of the silver. But the money has already been taken, and it is possible to make a stumbling block for the other party in private and scare the female dependents. However, at that time, there were many people and some people were injured, which was a bit unexpected, in case the He family brothers and sisters and the people of the other team knew, I was afraid that it would be difficult to explain, so they desperately refused to admit it, let alone dare to tell the whereabouts of those who released the arrows. The county magistrate said that since they were not horse thieves but officials and soldiers, I was afraid that this blocking of the road would eventually be over. However, it is contrary to military law for them to carry bows and arrows out without permission to attack officials and civilians, and it is even more intolerable at the local level. Since our family is the bitter master, the county magistrate asked the lord to stay in the city and wait for the news, saying that he would give an explanation to our family no matter what. ”

Niu Shi listened and said, "I see. He Ziyu is not a good person, and his friends are really not good goods. For the sake of silver, you have to harm people together, and you have to pit your companions, and you deserve today's fate!"

Qin Hanzhen asked: "What about the brothers and sisters of the He family and the other officials and soldiers who were not caught, and is there anyone in the official government who has traced their whereabouts?"

Mama Hu said: "Soon after the Wu family's nursing home sent people to the county office, the county commander sent a messenger to search He Ziyu's rented house in the city, but nothing was found. He seems to have returned with someone, stayed in the house only for one night, went out early the next morning, and never returned. And the four officers and soldiers who were originally staying in the house also followed out of the door and went out of the city through the south gate. The soldiers guarding the gates saw it with their own eyes. That's why Master Qi said that they might be the ones who hid in the forest and shot arrows. There is only one room in the house now, and the family members look at the house, and they don't know anything. The prefectural commander left the messenger to guard the house, and ignored it anymore. Young Master Wu sent someone to inquire about the whereabouts of the He family brothers and sisters, but after they escaped, they disappeared without a trace, and they didn't know where they were hiding. ”

Qin Hanzhen said: "The He family and Qin Taisheng's family were injured, and it is impossible for them to escape too far, so they must find a place to ask a doctor to bandage their wounds." ”

Mama Hu smiled and said, "Sister, don't worry, these things, Master Wu and Young Master Wu naturally thought of it." She turned to Niu again and said, "What does the lord mean, since He Ziyu has not colluded with the horse thief, the errand guarding the door of the house he rented will probably be transferred away soon." Let's send someone from our own house to keep an eye on the door of the house, once the He brothers and sisters come back, or if the servants in the house have any movement, they will come back immediately to report the news, and our family can find out the whereabouts of the He family. She may not be like her, but we can't leave her alone. Even if it's for Brother Zi'er's sake, you have to make sure that she is safe. ”

Niu snorted coldly: "I don't care about these things, you just do what he tells you." If it were me, this poisonous woman should not pay attention to her! Hengzhu is her own to run away with her brother, whether she is dead or alive and what does it have to do with us? Brother Zi'er will not blame us in the future!"

Mama Tiger smiled and retreated, and went back to her residence. What Niu said was actually angry, and she knew it in her heart. Old Mr. Qin's instructions, she will still do it. Tomorrow, Uncle Hu will enter the city early in the morning, and his peers will take Hu Er and be the candidate to watch.

Qin Hanzhen slept with his grandmother Niu's all night, which was much warmer than in his own room. It's just that Niu doesn't seem to sleep well, always tossing and turning, which affects her and doesn't sleep well.

In fact, she can also understand Niu's thoughts, the case of the officials and soldiers blocking the road seems to be getting more and more complicated and weird, and she doesn't know what secrets are hidden behind those officials and soldiers, which makes people so entangled.

Originally, Qin Hanzhen thought that this matter would be entangled for a few more days, but he didn't expect that the next evening, his grandfather, Mr. Qin, would return to the Qin family's mansion with Uncle Hu.

When Niu saw her husband, she was both happy and surprised: "Why did you come back so early? I thought you would stay in the city for two more days." ”

"I thought I'd have to delay a few more days. Old Mr. Qin smiled gently, sat down by the kang, and touched Qin Hanzhen's head, "Yulinwei came yesterday and took those officers and soldiers away overnight, and the case is closed." I finished taking care of the chores and had nothing to do, so I had to come back, leaving Hu Er to keep an eye on He Ziyu's residence in the county town to prevent the family members from escaping. ”

Niu Shi was stunned: "Ah, so fast, what did the people from the guard say?"

"Desertion of premises, use of public weapons for private purposes, theft of ordnance, and killing and wounding of civilians. Old Mr. Qin paused, "Yulinwei's people acted neatly, and without even asking the injured, they directly convicted those people, and without mentioning the whereabouts of the escaped officers and soldiers, they took them away directly." The county magistrate couldn't stop him at all, so he had to let him go. Fortunately, our wrecked carriage was pulled to the county office early as a witness. The lord who came from Yulin Wei looked at the carriage and asked the twenty officers and soldiers, each of whom received twenty taels of silver from He Ziyu, and then compensated our family for a full four hundred taels of silver tickets. People are so generous and neat, and I have no reason to pursue it. It's just that Brother An's daughter-in-law's whereabouts are unknown, and Hu Er has to be asked to continue to stay in the city and wait for news. However, Shaoying said that he was willing to take on the responsibility of searching. But I thought that he had a grudge against Brother An's daughter-in-law, and he still didn't have to work for his good, so I politely refused. ”

Niu Shi said: "According to me, Shaoying is so capable, and there are capable people under him, so why let him go to find it? What are you afraid of? Is it true that our family has no enmity with the He family? You can't believe Shaoying's character? He will never kill people to vent his anger." ”

Old Mr. Qin showed a complicated smile, didn't say much, only took out the four hundred taels of silver tickets from his arms and handed them to his wife to collect.

Qin Hanzhen sat on the side, always feeling a little unreal, this matter was solved like this?

She couldn't help but ask Mr. Qin: "Grandfather, didn't those officers and soldiers say that they couldn't see the light before, and they were hiding in Linxian? What is the problem here? The people in the guard station didn't explain?"

Old Mr. Qin shook his head: "That lord didn't say anything, but maybe he will interrogate people after bringing them back to Yulinwei, right? Your cousin Wu also wants to know, but unfortunately that adult's mouth is very tight and his temper is not good, I am afraid that your cousin Wu will accidentally offend him and will suffer a big loss, so I stopped him. ”

Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but sigh, thinking that this Yulinwei was also mysterious, this time he brought back those few arrested officials and soldiers, and the local officials were not allowed to ask more, so they didn't understand what was going on, but they just wanted to block the news.

The thought came to her mind for a moment, and she didn't think much about it. Who knew that in the afternoon of the second day, Wu Shaoying hurriedly came to report to Mr. Qin, saying that someone from Yulin Wei had asked about those officers and soldiers. But they clearly came the day before, and they showed the official document and took the people away, so why did they come again today?

Both the county order and the Qi master felt that something was wrong, and immediately informed the person who came of the truth. The other party sent troops to follow the route that the county officials said that the Yulin guards escorted the prisoners away yesterday, and chased them all the way, and found the bodies of those officers and soldiers who were hastily buried in the jungle not far from a remote mountain road.
