At that moment, Wu Shaoying, the county magistrate, and the Qi master all looked at Zhou Gen in unison, with a look of surprise on their faces. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

What did he mean by this? These dead officers and soldiers were soldiers stationed at Jinji Beach, and how could they be the defenders of Changle Fort who had been transferred from Datong?

But looking at Lord Li's expression, Zhou Gen's words didn't seem to be nonsense. Obviously, Master Li had the same thoughts as him.

The military attache from Yulin Wei said in a low voice: "Are Master Li and Zhou Guards sure? There may be a difference between the portrait and the real person, could it be that the two of them have made a mistake?"

Wu Shaoying's heart moved when he heard this, Zhou Gen is a guard?

He said to everyone: "Lord Wang, the county commander, the master of Qi and the students have all seen these soldiers, the portraits are very similar, and many details have not been missed, as long as they have seen them, they will not admit their mistakes after seeing the portraits." The county magistrate and the chief secretary of Qi also nodded, and also said that they could let the officials, errand or jailers of the county government come to recognize the person, and the guarantee was the same answer.

Everyone said so, and the military attache surnamed Wang didn't say anything more. Zhou Gen glanced at him with a displeased expression: "Wang Baihu, if I don't have a good memory, everyone I have seen can never forget it, and the prince will not send me to help Lord Li!"

Wang Baihu was a little stumbling and shut up.

Wu Shaoying bowed his head and was silent, Zhou Gen mentioned "Lord Wang", could it be that he was the guard of which palace? How could this case involve the palace again? Thinking of what Qin Hanzhen had mentioned, there was a problem with Linxian, and Linxian happened to be the private property of Princess Jin, Wu Shaoying couldn't help but ponder.

Zhou Gen said to Master Li: "How did the good defenders of Changle Fort become the people of the Jinjitan outpost for no reason? And when the lord inspected the Jinjitan outpost, the general flag there was removed from his post because he ate too ugly and the number of soldiers was forty percent less than that on the roster, but he did not report to the guard post, so he was severely punished. If it is said that these slain soldiers were all garrisons of Jinjitan, then the two small banners to which they belonged were exactly 20 people, and they were not exactly the number of vacancies at the Jinjitan outpost? Then why did the Jinjitan General Banner rather be removed from their posts than claim that there was indeed a shortage of people under his command? How could these slain soldiers appear in the Changlebao outpost that day?

Master Li glanced up at Zhou Gen: "This matter is indeed suspicious. We'll have to take a closer look!"

Zhou Gen wanted to say something more, but Master Li gave him a look, he was stunned, and immediately reacted, there were many people present, and the case they came to Yulinwei to investigate was originally a very confidential matter, so he closed his mouth.

Master Li smiled and thanked the people of Mizhi County for their help to him, and specially thanked Wu Shaoying for the portrait he brought, and said: "The outstanding painting skills of the respected teacher are admirable. I wonder if the Venerable Master could draw the portraits of those who were traveling with the slain soldiers that day? In the future, it will be much more convenient to order someone to search for the locks, which will have a graphic reference. ”

Wu Shaoying's face was embarrassed: "Master Li, it's not that the student's mentor is unwilling to contribute, but except for these dead soldiers who were taken by domestic servants and taken to the county office, and the student's mentor has seen it with his own eyes, the rest of the people, the student's mentor has never met, how do you know what they look like? When someone stopped the road that day, the student's mentor was not among them. However, there are several people in the student's own nursing home who have personally experienced the events of that day and have seen those officers and soldiers. If you need ...... for adults."

Master Li smiled: "In this case, I will ask Zhou Gen to look for you in a while, and ask your nursing home about the appearance of those who escaped, maybe they are all acquaintances." ”

Wu Shaoying bowed silently, which was considered to be due.

Lord Li and Zhou Gen and others still had important matters to discuss, but they didn't intend to let the county order and Qi Zhushu and others hear about it, so they served tea and sent it off. The county commander and others withdrew with Wu Shaoying.

When he went out, the county magistrate wiped his sweat and whispered: "This is the prince again, and it is from the guard, and I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Lord Li's gourd." They are nobles from the capital, and they can scare people by saying a word. Our officials are lowly and small, so it's better to mix less. ”

Master Qi thought so, and together with Wu Shaoying, he respectfully sent the county magistrate away.

As soon as the people left, Master Qi pulled Wu Shaoying to his house in the back office, and said to him: "Brother Wu, the county commander is right, let's get involved in this matter." I know that you really want to find the He brothers and sisters and avenge your great revenge, but their whereabouts are unknown now, and they are still mixed with those officials and soldiers with different identities, I am afraid that nothing good will come of it. Rather than tracking down their whereabouts on the cusp of the storm, why don't you wait for the storm to calm down? If their fate is not good and they end up like those officers and soldiers, you will save a lot of effort, and you will not be involved in cause and effect. ”

Wu Shaoying glanced at him: "Lord Qi, you are a good person, so you will sincerely persuade me to do this." It's just that now things are not like I want to be unmixed, so I can not mix. Not to mention that Lord Li and Zhou guards want to track down the origin of these officials and soldiers, and they have to borrow the power of our others, although the missing He family is my enemy, he is also the daughter-in-law of my mentor, and he has children for the Qin family. You also know what my mentor is, do you think he will sit idly by and ignore the whereabouts of the He family? Rather than let my mentor and his old man work their own, it is better for me to work hard as a disciple. ”

Master Qi smiled bitterly: "Old Mr. Qin is a righteous gentleman, but he is also a smart man. He wouldn't do anything stupid. It's you, Brother Wu, who are too obsessed to make people worry. ”

Wu Shaoying smiled silently.

Master Qi sighed, and said to him again: "Before you brought the portrait, that Master Li summoned Humble Jing to inquire about Linxian. You also know that although Humble Jing is a person from Linxian County, she has been married for many years, and although she will go back to her relatives every year, she doesn't know so much about her hometown. Master Li didn't ask anything, and he didn't feel surprised. But you and I know very well that since those officers and soldiers will hide in Linxian, there must be a place to settle in the local area, and maybe it will still be the secret stronghold of their gang, and there will definitely be people in the local area who are sheltering them, so that even if these 20 officers and soldiers swagger through the city, they will not worry about being accused and embarrassed. In addition to the Zhuangzi of the princess of Jin, there is no really powerful big family in Linxian County, and those officials and soldiers have been transferred from the territory of the King of Jin, plus the prince that Zhou guarded said just now, I don't know how many nobles are involved behind this, where can we little people get involved?"

Master Qi lowered his voice again: "Also, the false messenger who came before took out the same documents as the real one. Although the handwriting is different, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, that official seal is absolutely real!"

Wu Shaoying was stunned: "What?"

"The official seal on that fake document is real!" Qi Zhushu repeated this sentence, "I am in Mizhi County, and I am in charge of the clerical affairs. All the official documents of Yulin Weilai have to go through my hands, and Wang Baihu, who is in charge of military law, sends at least a few official documents to our county government every year, and all of them are recorded. I looked through them all, and I remember very clearly that the official seal in his hand broke a corner a few years ago, so the seal stamped on his official documents in the past few years has always been missing a hole in the lower left corner. This is the case with the seal on a fake paperwork. If it weren't for Master Li here, I would never suspect that the previous document was fake!"

Wu Shaoying's expression became complicated for a while.

Master Qi said: "Also, the words on the fake document are exactly the same as the real document, but the handwriting is different. This is not an official document, but a document written casually by Wang Baihu's side. Those who bring fake documents must have seen the real documents and can get the real official seal. The water here is very deep, and if we are not careful, it will be a big and important case, and I don't know how many people will put their heads on the ground! If the matter in Yulin Weili is just civil strife in the army, the people in our local area will stand idly by, and it has nothing to do with us. But now, even the capital has come, and the Shaanxi Commander has also sent Zheng Xuanshi over, and at least one prince has been involved. It's a big deal, so let's be honest. ”

Wu Shaoying left the Mizhi County Ya with a heavy face and returned to his new home in the city. Since he had an "agreement" with Guan Yunniang, he moved out of Guan's house in the name of avoiding suspicion and lived in another house that had been purchased in advance. Here, he is the real master, no longer under the fence, and the people who are waiting and guarding around him are confidants, so he can live with peace of mind and don't have to care about the eyes of others. But the enemy He brothers and sisters were involved in the official and military case, which kept him awake at night, and it was difficult for him to feel at ease.

Do you really have to wait for Master Li and the others to find out the case clearly, and after the situation is calm, they will go to find the traces of the He family brothers and sisters and avenge the great revenge that he and his cousin Guan have been framed for? But by that time, the He family brothers and sisters may not still be in Mizhi, and they may not even be alive. If you can't punish your enemies with your own hands, it seems that something is missing after all. All his calculations were not for such a result.

Wu Shaoying sat in front of the window, looking at the swaying shadows of the trees outside the window, and was silent for a long time.

Early the next morning, he rode out of the city and went to the Qin family's mansion to report to his teacher, Mr. Qin, about his experience in the county government the day before.

After hearing this, Old Mr. Qin pondered for a moment and made a decision: "This matter is over, you don't want to pursue it any further." The attack on the Qin family's carriage has already been decided, and the later killing of the officers and soldiers is another case that has little to do with us. Whether the He brothers and sisters are dead or alive, there will always be a result. We just have to wait. ”

Wu Shaoying was surprised: "Teacher, is it really like this?"

Mr. Qin looked at him: "The case has been closed, and the compensation has been obtained, and Brother Zi'er and his mother have also left with her brother, not kidnapped, what are our shortcomings? You've already decided that you're going back to your home to take care of the housework and then go on a study trip. You've been delayed for a long time for the sake of our family, and it's time to take care of it. ”

Wu Shaoying wanted to speak again and again, but she still understood the teacher's kindness and solemnly agreed.

However, after returning to the county seat, he always felt a little unwilling, so he instructed the nurse to return to the house to pack his luggage, and went to the county office alone, wanting to find the main book and ask about the latest progress of the case. Maybe there's new news today, but I don't know. He didn't care about the officers and soldiers who fled, he just wanted to know if the He brothers and sisters who fled with them had revealed their deeds? Those officers and soldiers were not visible, but the He brothers and sisters were not, they were still injured, so they had to find a doctor to treat their injuries, right?

After entering the county office, before he could find the Qi master book, he was stopped by Zhou Gen and semi-forcibly brought him to Master Li.

Wu Shaoying's face was vigilant: "Master Li wants to summon the students to come, just say it, why bother to work with the guards?"

Master Li smiled slightly: "Wu Jiansheng, you are a smart person, and you are also very powerful, well-connected, and there are quite a few capable people under you. This official thinks...... Maybe you can help me. ”

Wu Shaoying smiled reluctantly: "How can the student be virtuous? ”

Master Li stood up and slowly walked in front of him: "Don't be modest. Those soldiers who exposed their identities probably never thought that they would fall for your calculations from the first day they came to Mizhi County, right?"

Wu Shaoying finally changed color.
