Zhan Zhao and the others came to the door of the pawnshop that was stolen by Chen Yuanwai, and saw many people watching.

Chen Yuanwai stood at the door, his face was red and his neck was thick, and he was complaining to Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, "Didn't you say that the Imperial City Army strengthened its vigilance at night?" Why are you still losing it? That's a million taels! What the hell is the Imperial City Army doing? ”

Zhan Zhao heard a rough picture and smiled slightly.

Bai Yutang looked at him, "What's so funny?" ”

Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liangzi walked hand in hand, and they heard that the people around them were also talking about this outrageous, and the spearhead was directed at the Imperial City Army.

Lin Ye didn't sound very pleasant, "It's strange, shouldn't Kaifeng Mansion be blamed for not maintaining law and order when things are lost in Kaifeng City?" Why are you staring at the Imperial City Army? The soldiers are not quick to catch, and the thieves are also under their control? ”

Yi Yi followed behind Lin Yehuo, and after walking a few steps, he glanced back.

Lin Yehuo dragged her to her side and said, "Don't keep looking backwards." ”

Yi Yi said, "My brother has someone following us. ”

Lin Yehuo smiled, "So you can't always look back, what if you don't follow?" ”

"Oh." Yi Yi nodded, not looking back.

Ahead, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang had already noticed that someone was following, and the people who were following were mediocre, dressed in plain clothes, and didn't know what the purpose of the road was.

"Zhan-sama is here."

Several officials were dizzy and dizzy by Chen Yuanwai, and when they saw Zhanzhao coming, they hurriedly shouted.

As soon as the people around the people who were talking about it saw that someone from Kaifeng Mansion was coming, they were all waiting to see the case solved, and at the same time, everyone did not forget to sigh...... Look at the style of Kaifeng Mansion, take the dragon and tiger out to investigate the case, it is not ordinary!

As soon as Chen Yuanwai saw Zhan Zhao, he restrained a little, changed his dissatisfaction just now, and put on a grievance face, and said bitterly to Zhan Zhao who walked in front of him, "Lord Zhan, you have to call the shots for me!" Half of my life savings are gone! ”

Zhan Zhao smiled and nodded, always kind, "The old man is not in a hurry, this case is easy to solve." ”

Chen Yuanwai was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhanzhao - easy?

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, and then said, "There have been very few cases of theft in Kaifeng recently, and most of them are homicides. Your case is clean, you lost a million taels and didn't even hurt a nursing home, and you are definitely acquaintances who can do this. ”

As Zhan Zhao spoke, he saw that the expression on Chen Yuanwai's face was a little stiff.

"Don't worry, old man." Zhan Zhao put his arm on the old man's shoulder, and pointed back to the meow tower in the distance, "See?" There are people watching my small building for twelve hours a day, all of them are sentinels in the army of the Nine Princes, and they change shifts every two hours, when did you lose this silver? ”

"Uh......" Chen Yuanwai was stupid there, looking at the meow tower in the distance.

Wang Chao came over and said, "Lord Zhan, I checked the patrol schedule of the Imperial City Army yesterday, and the case should have happened during these periods, but two of them overlapped with the patrol time of the Kaifeng Mansion officials, so it could only happen around the fifth watch." There is a husband on or so of the fifth watch, and we have gone to find the husband to see if he sees anything. ”

Zhan Zhao nodded, and comforted Chen Yuanwai, who had a dish-looking face, "Don't worry about Chen Yuanwai, I'll send someone to find the sentry on the fifth shift last night, and there will be clues as soon as I ask." ”

After speaking, Zhanzhao beckoned the official and said that he would go down to the vault to have a look.

Chen Yuanwai stood in place as if in a daze, and asked the people around him, "That...... Is there a guard on the small building? Can you watch it? Wouldn't you be paying attention to something......"

The people around him said lightly, "Those sentries are all guarding the sentry posts at the border gates, do you think they can see it?"

Chen Yuanwai was taken aback when he heard the tone of his words, turned his face to look, and jumped in fright...... It turned out that it was Bai Yutang who asked.

Bai Yutang looked at him and suddenly asked, "When did the silver arrive?" ”

"That's it...... Just yesterday afternoon. Chen Yuanwai trembled and said, in fact, Bai Yutang was not an official errand, and there was no need to answer the questions he asked, but Chen Yuanwai was not controlled.

Bai Yutang was expressionless and then asked, "The waterway you walked?" ”

"That's right." Chen Yuanwai nodded, "I went to the dock by car yesterday afternoon." “

Bai Yutang looked at him, "What carriage?" How many cars were pulled in total? ”

"Uh......" Chen Yuanwai opened his mouth, thought for a moment, and said, "That...... Just an ordinary carriage, pulling more than 20 carts. ”

Bai Yutang looked at him again, didn't speak, turned around and went in.

Chen Yuanwai was confused, and when he turned around, he saw two children standing beside him, Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liang.

"Yo." Chen Yuanwai hurriedly saluted, "Little Prince, Your Highness." ”

The fourth son has always been very polite, saying hello to Chen Yuanwai, Xiao Liang is not too easy to deal with, he and Zhao Pu are masters and apprentices, and Zhao Jiajun's people are closer to him. Xiao Liangzi is a big ghost, and he always feels that this Chen Yuanwai is not a good person, so he probably discussed with someone to find fault with Ouyang.

Xiao Liangzi put his hands behind his back, looked the old man up and down, and then shook his head.

The old man was slightly stunned, then leaned over with a smile and asked, "Your Highness, what are you laughing at?" ”

Lin Yehuo is on the side, don't look at Xiao Liang like a wild child on weekdays, but he is the son of the wolf king Xiao Tonghai, that is the prince of the wolf king castle, no wonder the old man called him His Royal Highness.

Xiao Liangzi shook his head and sighed, "Alas...... Someone is going to be unlucky. ”

The old man was stunned, "Who is unlucky?" ”

Xiao Liangzi squinted his eyes and looked sympathetic, "Yesterday, my eldest brother Ouyang had just taken office, and someone touched his moldy head, isn't this a clear embarrassment for him?" ”

The old man opened his mouth, "Uh......"

"Tsk." Xiao Liangzi shook his head, "I think it must have been done by an acquaintance." ”

Xiao Sizi nodded, "Yes, my father also said that it must have been done by an acquaintance." ”

Xiao Liangzi sighed and whispered to Chen Yuanwai to gossip, "You don't know how to go, Brother Ouyang started a fire, that's really ...... Tsk, whoever is caught by him is a ghost, and that person is finished. ”

Chen Yuanwai swallowed, "What's that...... I can't see it, General Ouyang looks very kind on weekdays. ”

"Amika?!" Xiao Liangzi turned the door a little higher, "Old man, don't you know!" Brother Ouyang, that's a murderous person who doesn't blink! ”

The old man was startled, "Kill without blinking?" ”

Lin Yehuo looked at Xiao Liangzi silently, and said in his heart, doesn't it matter if you say this about the generals of the Great Song Dynasty?

……

In the Nine Kings' Mansion, Ouyang, who was about to entertain him, suddenly raised his face and sneezed loudly.

Zhao Pu, who was pouring tea for the imperial concubine at the table, glanced at him with disgust, that means - take medicine for a cold! Spread the infection to my mother!

Ouyang rubbed his nose and walked out, asking Zou Liang, who was expressionless, "Did someone say bad things about Lao Tzu?" ”

Zou Liang heard the shadow guard talk about the theft of Chen Yuanwai's vault before, he and Zhao Pu didn't tell Ouyang, and when he asked, he just smiled, "It's true that someone wants to be unlucky." ”

"Who's going to be unlucky?" Ouyang asked curiously.

Zou Liang looked at his heartless appearance, but felt that it was not bad to let Zhanzhao teach Chen Yuanwai and their gang a lesson, at least kill chickens and monkeys, and see who will play small tricks in the future.

As I was walking out, I was greeted by a few people.

Ouyang and Zou Liang obediently got out of the way and saluted.

Who is so magnificent? It's Dadan.

The old man saw his daughter's face full of spring breeze, and he walked with the wind at this time.

Da Dan was followed by several clansmen, all of whom seemed to be heirs, these people were about the same age as Zhao Pu, and some of them were childhood playmates, and they had already become acquainted with Ouyang and them in less than a day after they came.

The crowd greeted and entered the courtyard.

Zou Liang continued to walk out, but Ouyang looked back as he walked.

"Hey." Zou Liang dragged him, "Look at what, you are the commander of the Imperial City Army, don't look around when you walk." ”

Ouyang followed and said, "Is the totem of Dadan and their clan a spider?" ”

Zou Liang looked disgusted, "Who will use spiders as totems?" ”

Ouyang scratched his head, "I see that there are spider tattoos on the back of several necks, which are quite good-looking." ”

Zou conscience said that the tattooed spider is on the back of the neck? But he didn't think much about it, and went out with Ouyang.

……

Put down Ouyang They didn't mention it, and said Zhanzhao who entered the vault.

Looking around, Zhan Zhao found that the underground vault looked much more magnificent than the firewood room used to store money in the White Mansion.

There was a lock on the door, but it was just an ordinary lock, and Zhan Zhao felt that if this person really used this kind of lock to lock the vault, then his disease of treating money like dung should be no less severe than Bai Yutang's. The warehouse was empty, and there was a strange smell, like musty and the smell of things that had been piled up for too long.

The young man was going to follow Zhanzhao in, but the probe sniffed it, retracted it again, and squatted on it to flutter his wings.

Zhan Zhao touched his nose lightly and smiled slightly—he said that there is no guard in this cellar for gold, and it is a cellar for miscellaneous things. The pawnshop not only collects gold and silver treasures, but also collects other things, especially valuable antiques, calligraphy and paintings are naturally found in a good place to collect, and usually those who enter the pawnshop are so poor that they can't open the pot, and the things to be are strange, pots and pans are available, where do these things go? Naturally, it was thrown in the cellar. So there are no guards near this cellar, and the door lock is very common...... How could anyone have deposited a million taels of silver here?

At this time, Bai Yutang also came down and told Zhanzhao in a low voice, "That old man is lying, one million taels of silver, and more than 20 ordinary carriages can't be pulled at all." ”

Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "What about the silver ticket?" ”

"Who will hide the silver ticket in the cellar, what if the rats gnaw it?" Bai Yutang reminded, "I think the old man didn't expect that there were guards on the meow meow upstairs, and he scared Xiao Liangzi just now, and now he is a bit of a six-god owner." ”

"I suspect that there is no money at all, maybe it is just some other goods, and the old man made up a lie to report the false case." Zhan Zhao said, "This comparison can explain how so much silver disappeared without knowing it." ”

Bai Yutang nodded, "No matter how stupid a person is, he knows that Kaifeng Mansion will not give up, so when it comes to the worst time, the money will definitely be found." ”

"As long as the money is found outside the city or somewhere else, it is not found by the people of Kaifeng Mansion and Ouyang...... Then their purpose has been achieved. ”

"So right now, there's a million taels of silver stored somewhere?" Bai Yutang asked.

Zhan Zhao smiled and nodded, "It's not difficult to catch Chen Yuan, but the difficult thing is to attract those who conspired with him." ”

When the two walked out, they saw that the black shadow with a few sentries of the Zhao family army was found by the officials, and they were acting with Zhanzhao.

Zhan Zhao asked in front of Chen Yuanwai, and the black shadow put away his usual hippie smile, and looked at Chen Yuanwai with suspicion, "Last night, Kaifeng Mansion was calm and there were no cars and horses in and out, and a million taels were carried away?" Old man, did you report a false case? ”

Chen Yuanwai was startled, his face was flushed, and he was busy arguing, "Oops...... I've been trading in Kaifeng for decades! How could I report a false case, I transported the silver from the dock into the vault yesterday, and my guys here are watching. ”

While speaking, the old man pointed to the sky and swore an oath, "Old man, if I have half a lie, the sky will strike five thunders......"

Before he finished his oath, the black shadow asked Zhanzhao, "Are you in charge of this case in Kaifeng Prefecture or in the military camp?" ”

Zhan Zhao said, "Uh...... Or Kaifeng Mansion ......"

The black shadow raised his eyebrows, "Within twelve hours, it will be under the management of your Kaifeng Mansion, and after twelve hours, it will be handed over to the military camp, and General Ouyang will personally try it." The general said, the ironclad ghost did it! As he spoke, he ordered Chen Yuanwai, "Don't do all your business for the time being, and all the people who know where the money is located will be handed over to the military camp, and we will interrogate you!" ”

"Trial...... Interrogate? The old man jumped and looked at Zhanzhao.

Zhan Zhao spread his hands, and that meant - this is how the barracks worked.

After the black shadow finished explaining, he left, and said to his subordinates as he walked, "General Zou said that if you find out who is doing the ghost, you will drag it to feed the dogs, and don't feed the five hundred hunting dogs in the barracks tonight." ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang held back a smile and looked at Chen Yuanwai, and sure enough, the old man's face was worried, and he was probably frightened.

"Chen Yuanwai." Zhanzhao called him.

"Uh...... Well? Chen Yuanwai raised his head, wiped the sweat from his head, and said, "That...... Lord Zhan, you should check first, and I'll go rest for a while. ”

Zhan Zhao nodded, "It's good." ”

The old man hurried away.

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao exchanged a look, and Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows at the shark shark - follow him! Look what he's going to do

The shark followed the man.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang asked the officials to look for clues everywhere, and not long after, the shark returned, and the shark stretched out his hands and gently touched the door of Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's brains...... The two of them saw Chen Yuanwai talking to a young man in an alley, "Lord Xu, will something happen?" This...... Kaifeng Mansion used to have people stationed on the roof every night, and they must be suspicious of me now! ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both glanced at each other—strange! This Lord Xu is not a military general in the forbidden army, nor is he the father of a general of the forbidden army, but a civil official, and his official rank is not high, what's going on?

The shark continued to point at the heads of the two, and what the two saw was the scene that the shark saw—that Lord Xu glanced at Chen Yuanwai with slanted eyes, and said coldly, "You must do the things that the adults have explained to the end, otherwise, you know what the consequences will be." ”

"But ......," Chen Yuanwai cried with a sad face.

That Master Xu interrupted him in a cold voice, "So far, the plan has been implemented smoothly, you just continue to pretend, don't show your stuff." After saying that, he turned around and left, judging from his body...... That Master Xu's kung fu is not bad, and he doesn't look like an ordinary civil official at all.

Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "It seems that we almost fell for each other's tricks." ”

Bai Yutang nodded, "Someone saw that Ouyang Xinguan took office, and there were people in the Imperial City Army who made trouble, so they deliberately set up such a plan?" ”

Zhan Zhao nodded, "Listening to the tone of his voice, Chen Yuanwai may not be conspiring with others, but more like being forced." ”

"That Lord Xu......" Zhanzhao suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked Bai Yutang, "Is there something behind the neck?" ”

Bai Yutang recalled for a moment, frowned, and said, "It's like a black thing...... Bugger? ”

"I look like a spider." Zhan Zhao said, "It's covered by his hair, I can't see it clearly, are you tattooed?" ”

"I want to see it clearly!" Zhan Zhao dragged Bai Yutang, pulled him out, and got on his back.

He spread his wings and flew into the sky.

Below, Lin Yehuo looked up at Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, who were riding a dragon and flying away, and shook his head, "Recently, these two people have been chattering. ”

As he was watching, Lin Yehuo felt Yi Yi tugging at his clothes.

Lin Yehuo lowered his head, and Yi Yi said, "Brother, a ghost flashed just now. ”

"Ghosts?" Lin Yehuo was stunned, "The two who followed us just now?" ”

"No, those two are still in the alley, and I also saw a figure flashing, and the movements were quickly silent."

Lin Yehuo was wondering, and the little fourth son dragged him and stretched out his hand to point in the distance.

Everyone looked in the direction of Xiao Sizi's fingers, and saw in the distance, on the balcony on the second floor of Taibai Ju, Tianzun was hooking their fingers to them, as if greeting kittens and puppies.

Lin Yehuo looked helpless, reached out to pick up the little fourth son, and ran to Taibai Ju with Yiyi and Xiao Liang.

……

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang sat on the back of the unit, overlooking the streets and alleys of Kaifeng...... The two of them turned around and didn't find the Lord Xu, and they said that the movement was too fast.

The two of them found Zhao Pu and talked about the progress of the case

After listening to Zhanzhao's description, Master Pang, who came to help, thought about it, "The Lord Xu you are talking about seems to be called Xu Ren?" He's a civil official, he doesn't know kung fu. ”

"Speaking of which." The eighth prince also said, "Xu Ren is the proud protégé of Lord Huang, who passed away just a few days ago, and he is also ready to participate in this spring exam. ”

"That's a scholar, isn't it?" Zhao Pu asked, "Kung Fu is so good?" Is it fake? “

"Does he have a tattoo on the back of his neck?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Everyone looked at each other, "Tattoos? A civil official? ”

"That's not a tattoo, that's a soldier spider."

At this moment, there was a voice outside.

When everyone turned around, they saw Yin Hou Tianzun and them coming in, and behind them was Lin Yueyi pulling Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liangzi, but Lin Yehuo was not there.

"Sick pigs?" Zhan Zhao and the others looked dazed.

"It's a soldier spider." Yin Hou said as he looked at Tianzun, "Did you really see the Soldier Spider King just now?" ”

Tianzun nodded, "Hmm! The madman saw it, too. ”

At this time, everyone found that not only Lin Yehuo was not there, but also Master Wusha and Xiao Changtian.

"Who is the Spider King?" Zhao Pu asked.

Yin Hou laughed and patted Zhao Pu's shoulder, "You and Zhao Zhen had better be careful." ”

Zhao Pu wondered, "Be careful of what?" ”

"If you want to choose the person who hates the Zhao royal family the most in this world, it must be the Soldier Spider King." Yin Hou said, a little confused, "But the Soldier Spider King is really dead, how did he come back to life?" ”

"Will it be the same as last time?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"Not like that!" Tianzun shook his head, "I'm wondering, could it be a descendant?" Or ......"

"Or what?" Zhan Zhao asked, "Resurrected from the dead?" ”

"Nothing can be resurrected, don't think about it." Lu Tianhan waved his hand.

At this time, Ouyang Shaozheng came in, and when he saw everyone gathering, he was a little puzzled, and asked Zhao Pu, "Those people who are eating are here, when will it start?" ”

"Let's go." Zhao Pu walked out with him, asking, "What about Dadan?" ”

"After drinking tea with the concubine just now, I went to the palace." Ouyang replied.

Zhao Pu nodded.

"That's right." Ouyang also asked a gossip, "What is the name of your nephew who is thin and tall?" ”

"Gollang." Zhao Pu replied.

"He was quite kind yesterday, and today he is fierce......" Ouyang was afraid of snubbing Zhao Pu's relatives, and asked, "Is it inconsiderate or unaccustomed to eating things from the Central Plains?" ”

Zhao Pu was stunned, "No, Gellang has a good temper." ”

"Is that good-tempered?" Ouyang muttered to himself, "With a stinky face, Zou Liang didn't pay attention to him when he called him, and so did the others." ”

"Are you not used to life in the Central Plains?" Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were going to Taixue to investigate that Xu Ren, and they followed them out.

Ouyang stretched out his hands, "God knows, Zou Liang asked me to ask, if you can't get used to it, prepare a bigger tent for them, but the tattoo is quite handsome, I don't know where I got it, I also want to get one, how about tattooing a unicorn?" ”

Zhao Pu stopped and looked at Ouyang, "Tattoos?" You say Kellang has tattoos on his body? ”

Ouyang blinked and pointed to his neck, "Here." ”

Zhao Pu frowned, "The first day you met me?" Dadan does not allow the clansmen to get tattoos, and you are not ignorant of the way. ”

Ouyang was stunned for a moment and frowned, "The black spider on the back of their necks isn't a tattoo?" ”

Everyone was stunned.

"Tattooed spiders?" Zhan Zhao hurriedly asked.

Ouyang nodded.

"When did I enter the palace?" Zhao Pu dragged him, "Why did he enter the palace today?" ”

"The emperor is looking for him to talk about things...... Ouyang also felt that something was wrong, "It's been a while since I left." ”

"Oops!" Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang went straight to the palace on their backs, and Tianzun followed, saying, "Be careful when dealing with soldier spiders!" ”

"Not good." Yin Hou seemed to be a little worried, "Zhao Zhen is in danger......"

Zhao Pu and Ouyang glanced at each other and rushed out together.

……

A few Imperial City military generals who came to the banquet were confused, and the reality Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang rushed out of the city, and then Zhao Pu and Ouyang, who had invited guests to dinner, also rushed out of the city, and the most important Mr. Gongsun, the fourth son and the little Liangzi, all rushed out of the city, can you still eat this meal?
