After changing his clothes, Su Jiming went out for breakfast, and when he arrived in the courtyard, he looked around and didn't see Zhang Xiwen.

Su Jiming asked his subordinates: "What about Zhang Xiwen?" Haven't come out yet? ”

The subordinate said: "There was a wind in the yard last night, and Xi Wen seemed to have a cold, so he went home early in the morning, and asked me to ask the adults for leave on his behalf." ”

Su Jiming frowned. Zhang Xiwen is such a big man, where is it so easy to get sick when the wind blows, and eighty percent is still because of the strange death of the three Miao people yesterday, he can't wait to report to Wei Qiong. However, just report it, such a big thing, you can't hide it from Wei Qiong, in short, it has happened, and you can't hide it. In fact, with Xiwu's ability, as long as he didn't break into the prison alone like last time, it would not be easy for Wei Qiong to catch him.

Su Jiming had breakfast and went to the government.

Su Jiming went relatively late, and when he arrived, the officials were already in the office. The mustache was uneasy all morning, and as soon as Su Jiming came, he hurriedly followed, presented the things that had been prepared in his hand, and said with a flattering smile: "Master Su, this is what the adults asked me to write yesterday." ”

Su Jiming took it from his hand and looked at it. This is about the case of the three Miao people yesterday, three people died in vain, and the official documents always have to be recorded, Su Jiming asked the mustache to write that these three people were killed on the spot for attacking the imperial court officials, and the cause of death of the three people has been explained, so there is no need to investigate.

When he finished reading it, he put the paperwork aside and began to look at the mustache.

The mustache looks haggard, he must not have slept well last night, how can he sleep well if something like this happens? His right eye was bruised, and his sleeve was deliberately rolled up by him, revealing the scar on his arm. However, such a wolf bèi was only funny in Su Jiming's eyes.

The mustache was uneasy to see by Su Jiming, his eyes were rolling in his sockets, he didn't dare to meet Su Jiming's gaze, and stumbled and said: "The adults are late in the morning, but I am worried, and I am much more relieved to see that the adults are fine." ”

Su Jiming raised his hand and touched the corner of his mouth. Although Xiwu's treatment in the place where he was beaten yesterday improved quickly, he was still in pain. He secretly sneered and dragged out his tone: "Jin Yi-don't worry, is it too fast?" ”

"Huh?" The mustache didn't know what Su Jiming meant, and he was so nervous that the sweat on his forehead dripped down.

Su Jiming's tone was soft, and he said, "Does the injury on your eyes hurt?" ”

The mustache said dryly: "There are adults who care, and it doesn't hurt at all." ”

Su Jiming raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Yes." In the future, don't be so ruthless with yourself. I don't appreciate this thing very much. ”

The mustache shook violently, and he almost fell to his knees. He was so afraid, that is, he was afraid that Su would be suspicious of him. Could it be that Su Jiming has already seen through it?! He was dying and struggling: "What do you say, what kind of bitter tricks, how can I not understand?" ”

Su Jiming held his cheek with one hand and looked at the expression of his mustache with interest: "Guess what those three Miao people said when they begged me for mercy before they died?" ”

The last bit of mustache's pretended to be calm finally poured out of a thousand miles, the whole person trembled like chaff, knelt down with a plop, stepped forward on his knees, hugged Su Jiming's thighs and cried bitterly: "My lord, you listen to my explanation!" I'm forced too! ”

Su Jiming sneered. This mustache is really clever to himself, but in fact he shoots himself in the foot. He was a thief and desperately wanted to pick himself up, but he was bluffed by Su Jiming and told the truth.

He said that he was also forced by Qin Chun, who raised a group of ruffians and hooligans under Qin Chun, and fished the people in Huizhou, acting as a bully, and everyone was afraid of him. Qin Chun threatened him with the lives of his whole family, although he was dedicated to Lord Su, but he was forced to be helpless and suffered from Qin Chun's coercion. Naturally, he still tried his best to clean up his responsibilities for yesterday's incident, and only said that Qin Chun forced him to report the so-called discovery of the barbarian case to Su Jiming, as for what Qin Chun wanted to do, he didn't know at all, and he didn't admit that he came up with this extremely damaging idea.

Things were really similar to what Su Jiming expected, and everything was done by Qin Chun. The mustache is stupid and hateful, but Qin Chun is even more hateful than him! A year and a half ago, Qin Chun forced them to go to sea on a windy day, and he already owed him several lives, Su Jiming always remembered it, but he still couldn't spare his hands to clean up Qin Chun. New hatred and old hatred surged into his heart, making him hate more and more teeth!

Su Jiming sneered: "You are really stupid. He threatens you, you don't come to sue me, don't you sue the envoy, but do things for him, isn't this a reason to send a handle to him, for fear that he will not coerce you? You got on Qin Chun's thief ship and wanted to become a grasshopper on a rope with him? ”

The mustache became more and more frightened, for fear that Su Jiming would settle accounts with him, so he hugged Su Jiming's leg and cried so much: "Master Su, I am really loyal to you, please spare me this time, I will definitely be for you, and I will never give up." ”

Su Jiming pressed the top of his mustache, pushed his tear-stained head away a little, and sighed deliberately: "There are some words, I might as well tell you directly, I won't say it, I think you can guess seven or eight." Do you know why the emperor sent Lord Wei to Lingnan? ”

The mustache swallowed nervously and looked at Su Jiming with some blankness.

Su Jiming pointed out: "Do you know about the emperor and Zhao Cai?" ”

The mustache nodded. The prince Zhao Cai has a high position and has controlled the government for many years, and his ambitions are well known. In the past two years, the emperor has gradually regained the general trend, and Zhao Cai has been setting sunset. Qin Chun and Zhao Cai are in-laws, and the mustache is naturally very clear about this relationship.

"The emperor wants to get rid of Zhao Caipeng's party, the Lingnan Mountain is far away from the emperor, and it is adjacent to the barbarian land, the emperor is worried about the chaos in Fanbang, so he sent Wei Qiong as an envoy to calm the situation. Lord Wei asked me to temporarily take the post of Huizhou driver, so that I could collect evidence of Qin Chun's guilt so that he could be convicted as soon as possible. "Su Jiming's words are half-true, and it is good to use them to bluff the mustache. The real purpose of Wei Qiong's envoy was the sacred object of longevity of the Wu Barbarian Clan, but at the same time, it was indeed one of the purposes to eliminate Zhao Caipeng's party. The sacred relics of the barbarians were secrets, and the mustache did not know about them, and the only thing he could think of was the latter.

The mustache had a look on his face.

Su Jiming glanced at the mustache and shook his head regretfully: "Jin Yi, you also know about me, there are no available people around me, so I was very optimistic about you and planned to focus on cultivating you." It's a pity that I was so disappointed by yesterday's events. ”

The mustache had already greeted the eighteenth generation of Qin Chun's ancestors in his heart, and howled: "Master Su, I am also confused for a while!" I'm willing to smear the liver and brain of adults! This time it was a little more sincere than before.

Su Jiming waited for him to cry for a while, and then said quietly: "If you really want to get off the thief ship of Qin Chun, I'll give you an idea." ”

The mustache almost snapped his head: "I listen to Master Su." ”

Su Jiming asked the mustache to hand over all the ruffians and hooligans he knew that Qin Chun had raised. The mustache is the best at slapping horses, before Qin Chun lost power, he was also a good dog in front of Qin Chun, so Qin Chun also used him as a confidant, Qin Chun knew a lot of bad things, at least he didn't help to abuse, so he made a wall grass Qin Chun would be so angry.

Su Jiming learned from the mustache that the ruffians raised by Qin Chun were divided into many factions, and Lingnan was a land of Baiyue after all, and people of different races rarely got along with each other. Qin Chun gathered the young, strong, and idle people of several tribes under his command, these people have his back, and the people are in the evil township; And when Qin Chun was in need, they became Qin Chun's lackeys.

After hearing the mustache's explanation, Su Jiming thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any discord between these ruffians?" ”

The mustache said: "Naturally, there is, the group of guys from the Bai Miao tribe and several people from the Li tribe almost fought several times, and Qin Chun came forward to settle it." ”

"This time, Qin Chun sent me to assassinate me, it's the Bai Miao people, right?"

"Yes."

As soon as Su Jiming had an idea, he had a plan. He looked his mustache up and down, and said slowly: "Jin Yi, I was confused about you for a while about yesterday's incident, so I haven't reported it to Lord Wei yet." I'll give you another chance, and if you do it, I won't blame you for what you did before. If Qin Chun dares to look for you again, you will fool him, come and go back to me immediately, and I will keep you safe. ”

The mustache was almost grateful.

Su Jiming explained like this, the mustache carefully wrote it down, the more he listened, the more surprised he became, and when Su Jiming finished explaining, he said hesitantly: "My lord, this plan is really ......" He was embarrassed to say that Su Jiming was damaged, thought about it, and praised with a thumbs up, "Adult's clever plan!" ”

Su Jiming ignored his compliment and waved his hand: "You go, this is my last chance for you." ”

The mustache hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will never let your adult down this time!" After that, he hurriedly withdrew and went to find someone to assign Su Jiming to explain the work.

At noon, Su Jiming was about to rest, but he heard the officials talk a lot, saying that a large number of officers and soldiers had gone out of the city in the morning, and the battle was not small, and he didn't know what was going on.

Su Jiming listened to their discussion and couldn't help asking, "Officers and soldiers out of the city?" What's going on? ”

An official hurriedly said that hundreds of officers and soldiers had left the city in full gear in the morning, led by Cao Kun, who was under Wei Qiong. These officers and soldiers were all brought by Wei Qiong from the capital.

One said: "Master Su, don't you know about this?" With so many officers and soldiers out of the city, could it be that there are people in Lingnan who are in turmoil again, and Lord Cao Kun led troops to exterminate them, right? ”

Another interjected, "If this were the case, we would have heard about it a long time ago." If you want me to say, those people should have gone back to the capital. ”

The first person was puzzled: "What are they doing back to the capital?" ”

Another person said mysteriously: "It's just going back to Beijing!" I had a drink with my friends in the army last night, and I heard that their mission seems to be to send a secret letter back to Beijing. ”

Several people set their eyes on Su Jiming. If you really want to sue the royal court, who else can it be? Qin Chunbei! Once this Qin Chun falls, Su Jiming will be beautiful!

Su Jiming was stunned for a while, and gradually showed a happy look. Others don't know, but he knows very well, Wei Qiong put on such a big battle to send things back to Beijing, how could it be a secret letter? He wanted to repair Qin Chun, and he didn't have to work hard at all! What he gave must be the fake holy pearl! Cao Kun is Wei Qiong's confidant, and he sent Cao Kun to escort him personally, which shows that he attaches great importance to it!

Not to mention that pearl made Wei Qiong completely believe, but it was a good thing that it could make him doubt his belief and postpone the idea of attacking the Wu Barbarians. This back and forth has delayed time, and Zhao Yunshen may not last long. If he can't hold on, that's the best, Wei Qiong no longer has the point of attacking the barbarians. If he held on, the delay might allow him and Xiwu to come up with a better way to protect the barbarians. It can be seen from the sky that this is the first time that Su Jiming is so looking forward to the emperor being able to enter the ground soon!

Whether it is a great rebellion or a violation of ethics, he admits it all. After all, people are selfish, he is not a sage, and he does not want to be a sage, he only hopes that the person who protects him wholeheartedly can also make him repay.
