"What did I do?" asked Yang Nan puzzled. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"When I saw the study, the woman kept staring at you, don't tell me you don't know, and don't tell me you two don't have any stories?" Lou Haibo pointed at Yang Nan and said.
Yang Nan shook Lou Haibo's hand away, "No, you think too much!" Yang Nan lowered his head and drank tea.
"Yo yo yo! Big brother is from here! You can't fool me!" Lou Haibo said.
"Drink tea, you can't seal your mouth with such fragrant tea. Yang Nan sent the teacup to Lou Haibo.
"Hey, tea is good tea, but no one who understands it drinks it!" Lou Haibo blew the tea cup and took a shallow sip.
Yang Nan smiled helplessly, and also lowered his head and drank tea.
"Brother Lou, then what are you going to this Jade Mansion for?" Yang Nan remembered that Lou Haibo still didn't say what he was for.
"There's one thing, I don't know if you've heard of it. Lou Haibo said, "Overnight, more than 20 officials in the imperial court died mysteriously. ā
"What, is there such a thing?" Yang Nan said in surprise.
"That's right, and it's not in one city, it's happening in many parts of the country, I've sent people to look for it, but the result of the reply is that the death is normal, and there is nothing strange about it, but the more it is okay, the real problem. Lou Haibo said regretfully.
"Definitely. Yang Nan didn't expect such a big event to happen, "Then big brother, you visit the Jade Mansion at night, are you suspicious ......?"
"It's not possible to make a conclusion lightly yet, but there are clues that it is inseparable from the Jade Mansion. Lou Haibo nodded.
"What did you find?" asked Yang Nan.
"You're your own brother, so it's okay to tell you, I found out...... Uhh
"Who?" Yang Nan quickly stood up and looked around, but did not find anything abnormal, and the tea drinkers around heard Yang Nan's shouting, turned his head to look, but found the arrow on Lou Haibo's back.
"Kill, kill!" The tea drinkers fled one after another, and the owner of the teahouse hurriedly shouted and went out to report to the official.
Yang Nan came to Lou Haibo's location and leaned over to take a closer look at the short arrow. The short arrows are very delicate, and the tail of the arrow is made of kiwi feathers, which is expensive to look at. Although the position of the arrow is in the middle of the body, it is not enough to kill with one arrow, which means that the arrow is highly poisonous, and the throat is sealed with blood. And the position of the arrow is in the center of the body, which means that the person who released the arrow should be a master, otherwise he will not be impartial. This archery shooter is either strong in martial arts, or strong in internal strength, can overhear the content of my conversation with Brother Lou, and can shoot Brother Lou before he is ready to tell me the most secret thing, it seems that there is a bigger secret behind what Brother Lou said. Hey, I didn't expect that Brother Lou, who regarded himself as a brother the most, would suffer a misfortune.
Not long after, under the guidance of the owner of the teahouse, a head catcher came to the teahouse with a group of officials.
"What happened, how did he die?" the catcher stepped forward to ask Yang Nan, and the other officials looked at Lou Haibo's body.
"I was drinking tea and chatting with my friend when suddenly an arrow shot out of nowhere and killed my friend. Yang Nan said.
"Arrows?" Catcher turned to look at Lou Haibo's corpse.
"Back to the head, it's Lord Lou of the Inspection Division. One of them said.
"What? is Lord Lou?" The head catcher hurriedly raised Lou Haibo's face, to confirm again, it's not good! It's really Lord Lou! The head catcher knows that this is a bad thing, in the royal city, there is actually another court official who died, this is not something that a small head catcher can handle.
The head catcher asked Yang Nan, "Who are you?"
Yang Nan replied honestly, "I am a friend of Lord Lou, Yang Nan." ā
"It's that simple?" the headhunter didn't believe it.
"It's as simple as that. ā
"Since this case involves an official of the imperial court, you must go back to the yamen with me, and I can't let you go until the matter is clear. "The head catcher knows that this matter is not small, and he can't let Yang Nan who is present go.
"Okay, I'll just go with you. Yang Nan knew that the head catcher couldn't make up his mind about this matter, and he needed to go back to ask his superiors, so he opened his mouth to solve the dilemma of the head catcher.
The head catcher was still wary that if Yang Nan didn't agree, he would inevitably use force to forcibly take Yang Nan away, but he didn't expect Yang Nan to cooperate, and couldn't help but glance at him, "Thank you brother Tai for your cooperation, let's go!"
Then the head catcher ordered his subordinates to carry the body of Lord Lou back to the yamen.
The Lord of Lin'an Mansion is in charge of public security and other matters in Lin'an City, and deals with the parents of the people in a city.
The head catcher returned to Yamen with the bodies of Yang Nan and Lou Haibo.
"My lord, the man has been brought back. Headcatcher replied.
The lord of the government heard the villain's report early, and waited in the lobby, the murder of his boss, is not a trivial matter, if one is not handled well, his black gauze hat is taken off and is considered to be light, if it is serious, his own life will have to be buried together!
"Who are you?" Lord Fu Ya came to Yang Nan, looking up and down at the man in front of him, his face was ordinary, not like a wicked person, but he knew that people knew their faces but did not know their hearts, of course Lord Fu Ya would not judge people by their appearance.
"Back to my lord, I am a friend of Lord Lou. Yang Nan said.
"Friends?"
"Yes, my lord, I was drinking tea and chatting with Lord Lou in the teahouse, and in the middle of the conversation, suddenly a short arrow shot over, and Lord Lou was killed on the spot. After speaking, Yang Nan sighed, he didn't expect such a thing to happen under his nose, and he couldn't do anything.
"Is there any witness?" asked the Governor.
The owner of the teahouse can testify. Yang Nan replied.
Lord Fu Ya looked at the head catcher, and the head catcher hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Lord Hui, that's true, I have asked the other people present before coming." ā
"Oh, do you know who killed Lord Lou?" asked Yang Nan next.
"I don't know. Yang Nan thought to himself, if I knew, I would definitely chase you out immediately, how could I still be grinding with you here.
"By the way, I haven't asked your name yet. The government reflexed.
"In the Lower Yang South. Yang Nan said with his fists clenched.
"Oh, it's Yang Shaoxia, this matter is very important, the official has to report it immediately, before the matter is clear, I have to ask Yang Shaoxia to be a guest in the palace for a few days, if there is any offense, please Yang Shaoxia take care of it." "Can drink tea with Lord Lou, Lord Fu expected that Yang Nanding was also a noble person, so he was still cautious in his words, but after all, the case was big, and he didn't dare to let Yang Nan leave, so he came up with a way to let Yang Nan stay for a few days first, and only after asking the above how to deal with it can he let Yang Nan go.
"Does it have to be like this?" Yang Nan asked.
"Please don't embarrass you. The government said.
"Okay, but please send someone to inform the eldest lady of Yufu, saying that Yang Nan can't accompany her to enjoy the flowers. Yang Nan said.
"Jade Mansion, but the Jade Mansion in Lin'an Mansion?" Lord Mansion was shocked and hurriedly confirmed.
"Exactly. ā
