49 Prince Dan fled from Qin

Hold a ladder in the middle of the night! Montenegro found a new scratch on the blue brick wall, and when he checked the ground again, it was obvious that the murderer was leaning against the wall with a wooden plank about fifteen feet long, and the person stepped on it and stuffed the snow into the chimney. "Look around for a plank fifteen feet long and half a foot wide!" Montenegro said!

"No!" Everyone responded and looked around!

Montenegro observed and thought: With such an oblique plank, the murderer must step on it, and he must grab another place with one hand to stabilize his body, and the other hand can stuff the snow into the chimney!

After a while, Zhang Jin found a wooden board and put it at the place of the scratches, the size was just right! The black mountain walked up gently, and it was difficult to stabilize it when it staggered! But Montenegro saw a piece of eaves under the eaves, and there were several obvious handprints on it! It turned out that the murderer was hanging the eaves with one hand and stuffing the snow into the chimney with the other, repeating several times until the chimney was full! By the time the snow has all melted, the people in the house have long been poisoned, and when the snow melts, the water will soon be dried by the charcoal fire inside, without any traces!

"Tell a few soldiers to stay here, and don't let anyone come near. Ask the secret guard to secretly monitor Prince Dan's mansion, and I will enter the palace immediately to see King Qin! After Montenegro gave instructions to his subordinates, he immediately went back to the house to change into official clothes, and wanted to go directly to the palace to ask to see King Qin, but after thinking about it, he still met with the national captain Wei Yu first, explained the matter in detail, and said that he suspected that Prince Dan had fled Xianyang. Historically, Prince Dan fled from Xianyang and returned to Yan at about this time. Outside the Prince Dan Mansion, there are soldiers from the Lieutenant's Mansion who stand guard day and night, responsible for the security of his mansion. And the officials in charge of direct surveillance are the officials of the pedestrian department! Lieutenant Zhijin has no right to enter the mansion of the foreign hostage prince!

"The lieutenant army is only responsible for the security of the Prince Dan's mansion! There is no obligation to take care of Prince Dan! Since the murder case involves the Prince Dan Mansion, you can enter the palace and ask the king to search the Prince Dan Mansion again! Legal and reasonable! I'm going with you to meet King Qin!" "Wei Yu knows very well that if Prince Dan escapes, the Yan State will form an alliance with the Zhao State at this time, which will be detrimental to the Qin State. Immediately took Montenegro directly into the palace and saw King Qin in the study.

"The first holiday of the year is not over, and the national lieutenant comes to see the widow on a snowy day, there must be something important! Let's get straight ahead! After King Qin finished speaking, he said to Zhao Gao: "Little Gaozi, go get two bowls of hot soup to dispel the cold for the two adults!" ”

The two thanked King Qin, and Montenegro told him about the murder that happened today and the suspicion that Prince Dan had escaped from Qin.

When King Qin heard this, he immediately felt the seriousness of the matter! Immediately ordered: "Let Li Si, Yao Jia, and Dun Weak come to see the widow immediately!" ”

Lang Wei outside the door immediately agreed to go.

Black Mountain and Wei Yi each drank a bowl of hot and sour mutton soup, and suddenly felt refreshed. After a while, Li Si and the others also came in! Montenegro recounted what had happened in the morning and his own suspicions.

Yao Jia immediately replied: "Judging that Prince Dan escaped from Qin based on a single murder case is biased, I immediately spread the official on duty in Prince Dan's Mansion every day to call and ask!" ”

Li Si and others also felt that it was too abrupt to conclude that Prince Dan had escaped from Qin with a murder case. Soon, a black-clad officer from the pedestrian department brought in! He was a young officer in his twenties, and he looked very nervous!

Yao Jia asked, "Have you ever seen Prince Dan in person in the past few days?" How is he doing? ”

"Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Prince Dan was sick, sometimes good and sometimes bad! Every day I visited, I was stopped at the door by the doctor, and I could only look inside the house at intervals of a dozen steps, and I could confirm that it was him. The black-clad officer replied.

The crowd looked at Montenegro. Does that mean hear me? Are you suspicious?

"When you see him every day, does he speak in the same voice as before?" Montenegro asked.

"The voice is generally impermanent, just a little hoarse. The doctor just said that there was something wrong with Prince Dan's throat. The black-clothed official said again.

When everyone heard this, they all felt that something was wrong!

"Nine times out of ten, the prince Dan ran back!" Wei Yu said.

"What do you eat? How could this situation not be reported earlier? Yao Jia scolded at the black-clothed official.

"We reported to the pedestrian department before the Mid-Autumn Festival, saying that Prince Dan was sick and people could only see it at the door, but the voice changed a little! At that time, the pedestrian official only replied that as long as the person was there, he would go if he did not die of illness, and we had no right to go indoors to check! The black-clothed official said aggrievedly.

"Please ask the king to send the imperial doctor to visit the patient by someone who is familiar with the prince Dan, whether it is true or not, it is all true there, and then report it according to the truth, and then we will discuss countermeasures!" Lees suggested.

"The widow asked the imperial physician Xia Wu to go with you to diagnose the pulse of the prince Dan, you must see it accurately, and report it according to the truth!" King Qin explained.

"No! Prince Dan has a scar on the index finger of his left hand, as long as he diagnoses the pulse, he will know the truth if he looks closely! The black-clad officer replied.

After a while, Xia Wu is coming! After a few orders, the crowd followed the black-clothed official!

"Your Majesty, in the murder of four people in Dongcheng this morning, the murderer is likely to be in the Prince Dan Mansion, did the minister enter the mansion to search? Will the king decide? Montenegro asked.

"It's really not easy for you to reason from the subtleties and judge the case, let's make a decision when Imperial Doctor Xia comes back!" King Qin said, "It's been almost half a year since the fake general Wang Jian and the army of Li Mu of Zhao State confronted each other! The generals have asked for battle, Wang Jian specially wrote to ask me to decide, what do you think? King Qin asked.

Li Si, Yao Jia, and Dun Wan all replied: "The ministers don't know about military affairs, but it's up to me to decide!" ”

King Qin looked at Yu Yu and Black Mountain again. Wei Yi thought for a while and said: "At this time, the confrontation is beneficial to me, and the war is in Li Mu's arms!" Although Li Mu defeated the Qin army twice, he and Zhao Xiangguo were not in harmony, and they were far away from the court. After a long time, Guo Kai will slander Li Mu. If Li Mu wins again, Guo Kai will not be able to open his mouth to slander Li Mu! I recommend not fighting as the best policy! ”

King Qin nodded, agreed, and asked, "Black Mountain, what do you think?" ”

"General Wang Jian controlled the army of 600,000, and he had already made a decision whether to attack or defend. The letter asked the king whether he would go to war, which was nothing more than to ask the king to stop the generals' desire to fight. Please help the general with the king's command! Montenegro said.

"Haha, Montenegro is the same as what I saw!" King Qin nodded with satisfaction, untied a rusty two-foot-eight old bronze sword on Wang's case, and shouted, "Someone!" ”

Wang Li, who was on duty, immediately entered, saluted King Qin, and said, "The minister is here!" ”

"Fast horse, hand over this Mu Gongzhen Qin sword to Wang Qian, pass on the order of the widow, and then dare to speak out about the battle, no matter who it is, behead it and send it to Xianyang." After King Qin finished speaking, he handed the sword to Wang Li.

Wang Li took the bronze sword with both hands and went away as promised.

"The monarchs and ministers of Great Qin are so concentric, why worry about the world is different!" Li Si sighed.

After a while, Imperial Physician Xia and the black-clothed official came back to resume their lives. Imperial Physician Xia took out a large piece of gold and said, "That Prince Dan is at most twenty-two or three years old, and his pulse is stable, there is no disease, and there is no scar on his left index finger!" Pretend to be seriously ill and bribe the ministers with this money! Let me decide! ”

"Excellent! Since the gold is your reward, take it. Let's go down and rest first! King Qin said with satisfaction.

"The minister is the minister of the king, and he is only rewarded by the king! Shall you be rewarded by other countries? Retire! After Doctor Xia finished speaking, he took his leave and did not take the gold with him.

"Imperial Doctor Xia is really pedantic!" King Qin said with his mouth open, but in his heart he admired Imperial Doctor Xia very much. Turning his head, he was furious, and said: "Suddenly, you immediately send an envoy to Yan Kingdom, Prince Dan dares to flee Qin in private, and wants to start a war with Great Qin!" Immediately let King Yan hand over the Prince Dan! ”

"Your Majesty, you can't!" Montenegro and Dun said at the same time!

"Suddenly, you speak first." King Qin said.

"Our army is now confronting Zhao State, and the two armies are at loggerheads. If you ask King Yan at this time, Yan Guo will definitely not send back Prince Dan, and will immediately form an alliance with Zhao State, which will be greatly disadvantageous to our army! It's better to pretend not to know, everything is as it is, King Yan will definitely sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight! There is no hurry to form an alliance with Zhao, which is beneficial to our army. He said weakly.

"Montenegro, what do you think?" King Qin asked.

"Since Prince Dan has fled back to Yan Kingdom, Prince Dan knows that this matter will not be hidden for long, and the king will be furious when he knows it. must be anxious to seek an alliance with Zhao to jointly resist Qin. The king might as well send a favor. sent someone to send the fake prince back to Yan Kingdom, and one clearly told King Yan that Qin was not afraid of Yan and Zhao forming an alliance. The second is that Yan Zhao will definitely not believe each other. The third is not to give King Yan an excuse to betray Qin Mengzhao. Montenegro replied.

"Good! This plan is exactly what the widow wants! What do you think? King Qin asked.

"We agree with that." Everyone replied!

"Montenegro, you immediately enter the Prince Dan Mansion to arrest the murderer! Yao Jia and Dun are weak, and the two of you then go to spread the meaning of the widow, and the widow remembers the friendship of the prince Dan and the widow together in Handan, and can't bear to be homesick! The two of you will send him back to his homeland. King Qin ordered.

"No!" Montenegro and the others immediately withdrew from Xianyang Palace!

Montenegro returned to the Lieutenant's Mansion and immediately mobilized troops to tightly surround the Prince Dan's Mansion! Montenegro took Xiao Hei and let him smell the handprints on the eaves! Immediately rushed into the Prince Dan's mansion with hundreds of soldiers!

"This is the mansion of Prince Dan of Yan Kingdom, do you dare to trespass? Aren't you afraid of the king's law? An old-fashioned man shouted in frustration.

"Let's catch the murderers of the four murders in Dongcheng, I only recognize Qin Law, whether it is the Prince's Mansion of Qin State or the Prince's Mansion of Yan State. If you have any opinions, you can write to the King of Qin yourself and take care of my bird affairs. Except for Prince Dan, take all the men to the courtyard. "Montenegro ordered!

"No!" The people immediately went their separate ways, and in a moment they brought all the male servants and guards to the middle of the courtyard. Xiao Hei immediately smelled the murderer and crouched down next to a tall guard.

"Take these guards away and withdraw!" Montenegro couldn't help but say, take away the tall guard and a few guards beside him, and immediately withdraw from the prince's mansion!

As soon as Montenegro went out, Yao Jia and Dun Weak entered the Prince's Mansion! The butler recognized the two adults and immediately came to protest.

"The old family doesn't have to be angry with those rough people, if the murder has nothing to do with them, they will be released! We are here today to have good news for Prince Dan, please report it quickly! He said weakly.

The fake prince Dan first came to diagnose the pulse today, and then there were soldiers to search the mansion. I was so frightened that I thought I was going to die. Now another Qin official has come to the door to say that there is good news, and they don't know how to deal with it! You can only come out hard!

Dun Liang and Yao Jia just glanced at the fake Prince Dan, and immediately said: "The prince is really homesick as the imperial doctor said!" The face is so bad. Let's pass on the order of the King of Qin, the King of Qin read that the Prince Dan and his old acquaintance in Handan, and the Imperial Doctor reported that you were homesick and sick, and ordered the two of us to send the Prince Dan back to Yanguo! Not sure when you can go? ”

"Thank you, King Qin! Thank you King Qin for remembering the old love! Let's get ready and set off tomorrow! The fake prince Dan was dumbfounded, but the old man replied calmly.

"Then we won't bother! Come and see you off tomorrow morning! After saying that, the two of them also took their leave!

Montenegro brought the man back to the lieutenant's mansion and immediately let the tall guard be interrogated! It didn't take much effort for the guard to be recruited. It turned out that before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Prince Dan found a young man who was very similar to him through a merchant in Yan Kingdom, and the two secretly changed their identities. Prince Dan disguised himself as a servant of a merchant and escaped from Xianyang, and the fake Prince Dan began to pretend to be sick! Due to careful planning, except for a few cronies, no one knows! The man who died was a slave bought in the human market more than ten years ago, when Prince Dan first came to Qin, and Prince Dan personally named him Yan Xiang. Prince Dan trusted him very much, and gave him the maidservants in the house as his wife, and gave birth to two children. After Prince Dan escaped! Yan Xiang didn't know that his wife found out a month later and told Yan Xiang. Yan Xiang didn't miss the old love, but ran to threaten the old family and wanted to denounce it! The old man had to take out fifty gold to gag his mouth! Yan Xiang got the money and went to Dongcheng to buy a two-entry mansion! Move out to live. also complained all day long, afraid that once the King of Qin knew that Prince Dan had escaped, it would affect the whole family. The elder of the family was also afraid that Yan Xiang would denounce him, so he sent his cronies to wait for the killer! The tall guard pondered for a long time before he came up with this trick of blocking the chimney with snow! I thought that God didn't know the ghost, but I didn't expect that I would be arrested in less than a day!

The next day, Yao Jia and Dun Weak sent away the fake Prince Dan, and the old man was intercepted by Montenegro at the gate of the city! Handed over to the Xianyang Ling Yamen! He asked Montenegro and said, "How do you conclude that such an ordinary poisoning case is a homicide?" ”

Montenegro replied: "If the flue is slowly blocked, the people inside will feel headache and dizziness a few days ago!" Only when you are asleep, the chimney is suddenly blocked, and the smoke backs up so deeply that it will be poisoned so deeply at once! You just told me about the results of the autopsy, and suddenly you died of charcoal poisoning in the middle of the night! It can be concluded that it was murder! ”

"I just concluded that the smoke was poisoning, and I didn't think about his murder at all. How did you catch the murderer so quickly? He asked again.

"Reason first, narrow the scope, then arrest people, try them separately, and as soon as there is a contradiction, they will show their feet!" Montenegro replied. He doesn't want to reveal anything about Xiao Hei yet! A normal dog's sense of smell is a million times more sensitive than a human's, and a trained police dog is millions of times more sensitive! Smelling and catching people is the same as playing.

A few days later, Montenegro was training on the school grounds, and 20,000 lieutenant infantry troops were practicing battle formations! Meng Hao brought Prince Vasily and Princess Alina of the Illegite Kingdom to the school grounds! When the two of them saw Montenegro, they had a warm hug as if they were relatives! Prince Andrei still doesn't know the Chinese language, and only knows a few simple greetings! Montenegro saw that Prince Andrei's complexion and body were much better than before, and his entourage was significantly stronger. Princess Alina is even more glamorous and moving, wearing a long white dress, wearing a mink cape, long golden hair dotted with a few hair accessories, and a red face that everyone wants to kiss when they see it. Montenegro immediately called a few relatives and took Prince Yin Lie and Princess back to the mansion to set up a banquet for the two of them!

Princess Alina enthusiastically held Montenegro's arm all the way, which aroused the envy of many onlookers.

"Half a year ago, we heard in Yilie Township that Daqin had annihilated four or five hundred thousand Hun cavalry, and also cut off the head of Man Da Danyu! All of us were overjoyed! I wanted to go to Yunzhong County to see you in person! It's just that the Upper County Guard stopped us! Later, men and women of the same skin color as us were sent to the township of Ire! Although most of them are not from the Ile country, they are still quite kind to see compatriots of the same skin color after the catastrophe. Now there are more than 20,000 men and more than 60,000 women in Yile Township! Alina said.

"When you come to Xianyang this time, do you want to leave and go back to your country?" Montenegro asked.

"Yes, after the Huns were defeated, there was no danger in going to the country of Ily to the west, although it was far away! The entire Western Regions is now ten rooms and nine empty, we want to go back and rebuild our homes as soon as possible, I don't know if King Qin will agree! Alina said.

"King Qin's heart, it's hard for me to predict! All I know is that you're too weak to wipe you out with a team of three thousand! You go back now, without the protection of Great Qin, it will be difficult to survive! Montenegro said.

"My brother said, we won't rebuild the kingdom of Ire! We're going back to build the Ile County of Daqin, my brother said it! Great Qin is too powerful! We don't have your writing, your oxen, your digging of wells! We, the Irek people, are willing to be the people of Great Qin and learn from the civilization of Great Qin! Only in this way will the people of Yile have a better future for development! This mansion of yours alone is much larger and more beautiful than our former palace of Iller! Alina said.

"Are these the words of your brother and sister?" When Montenegro heard Alina's words, he also felt that it was a way to get the best of both worlds, and hurriedly asked.

"Our brother and sister swear that it is absolutely sincere!" Alina spoke, and said a few more words to her brother in Ile! Andrei also nodded to Montenegro and said in a very unskilled Chinese language: "In the future, the country of Yilie will only be the county of the Qin country, and it will never break its word!" ”

"In that case, I will take you into the palace tomorrow and meet King Qin." Montenegro said.

After a while, the wine and food came up, and Alina wanted to sit with Montenegro in the same case, and everyone talked while eating.

"Can you tell us how you completely annihilated the four or five hundred thousand Xiongnu army?" Alina stared at Montenegro with passionate eyes, and said with both hands holding Montenegro's arm.

The story of Meng Tian's northern attack on the Huns has long been known to the world! There are wonderful stories circulating everywhere among the people. Mi Long next to him said loudly: "I'll tell you!" "Mi Long's stories are very vivid, and the story of the northern attack on the Huns has been pestered by the soldiers countless times in the lieutenant army! He stood up and told the story of the northern attack on the Huns in his voice! The beautiful sister-in-law Mi is still looking at her husband's demeanor with affection, she is already three months pregnant!

Every time Mi Long tells a story, he will tell several episodes in detail about Montenegro leading the light cavalry army deep behind enemy lines! Hearing this, Alina worships Montenegro even more! I couldn't help but kiss Montenegro on the face in front of everyone!
