Not far from the Zhao Mansion, Meng Zhou and Jing Rong heard a long call behind them.

When I turned around in my dream, I saw a guard walk in, and arched his hand and said, "Stay here, my adult has something to say to the girl." ”

Meng Zhou poked Jing Rong's arm, stood on tiptoe and whispered in Jing Rong's ear: "I thought he valued your beauty at that time so he didn't pierce us, but now it seems that the adult recognized my daughter at a glance, and he took a fancy to me." ”

"Girl, my lord just wants to say a few words to you."

Meng Zhou glanced at the guard, and his voice was lower: "Look at this guard's repeated emphasis, there is probably a play, otherwise you should go with me, in case he also takes a fancy to you at a glance, you will be blessed and shared." ”

Jing Rong frowned, and scolded politely: "Be serious." ”

Meng Zhou pursed the corners of his mouth, lowered his head and muttered, "It's boring." ”

"Girl."

Hearing this, the guard turned and bowed, "Your Excellency." ”

"Go back."

"Yes."

Meng Zhou saw Zhang Xujiu raise his eyebrows, "I heard that you want to talk to me." ”

Zhang Xujiu took out a few bags of tea from behind him and said, "This is for the girl." ”

Meng Zhou said: "You and I have never known each other, and we have only met for a short moment, so it's not good for you to give me a gift, or do you like it." Meng Zhou said and snorted, turned his head and looked at Jing Rong angrily, "What are you pinching me for." ”

Jing Rong frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense. ”

Zhang Xujiu curled the corners of his mouth and said: "The girl is chivalrous, one is meritorious in reporting corrupt officials, the second is meritorious in transmitting news, and the third is meritorious in saving people in danger. ”

Meng Zhou said: "Since this is the case, then I'm welcome, I don't like tea, otherwise how about you exchange it for silver for me?" After Meng Zhou finished speaking, he glanced at Jing Rong beside him and said, "It's not proper, I'm not very nervous now, why don't you do this, how about adults help me two little favors?" ”

"Girl, please speak."

"Help me release two people from the Neighboring Water Prison and Shaoguang Hall." Meng Zhou said and handed Zhang Xujiu a note.

After Zhang Xujiu read it, he said: "Don't worry, girl, you will definitely do it properly." ”

Hearing this, Meng Zhou smiled and said, "I know that Master Zhang is very wise and will be able to calm down the remaining miscellaneous matters." ”

"The girl has a good reputation." Zhang Xujiu said and glanced at the carriage behind him, put the tea in Meng Zhou's hand and said, "This tea girl should take it, she can use it in the future." ”

Before Meng Zhou could react, Zhang Xujiu had already turned around and walked towards the carriage.

Meng Zhou looked at the back, checked the tea in his hand, and said, "What do you mean by him?" ”

Jing Rong took the tea bag in Meng Zhou's hand, grabbed Meng Zhou's sleeve and turned around and walked in the opposite direction, his tone was cold, "What do you mean?" ”

Meng Zhou grinned and said, "Why don't I ask?" ”

Jing Rong stopped, his gaze swept towards Meng Zhou.

Running into Jing Rong's eyes, Meng Zhou suddenly shuddered, she rubbed the tip of her nose and showed a well-behaved smile, "That, I just want to ask him when he can release Heshan." ”

"What else? What more could you ask? ”

Meng Zhou immediately raised his hand Mingzhi, "No, that's it." ”

Jing Rong stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Why do you believe him?" ”

Meng Zhou leaned over and glanced at Jing Rong, and when she saw that the faces of the people around her softened, she regained her big grinning appearance and said, "It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I saw that he was articulate and sharp just now, and I want to try his sincerity again." ”

"Do you want to use Heshan and Xiaokong to see his ability and sincerity?"

Su Qinghui said with a smile: "Smart, I told him generously that this person testified, if Heshan and Xiaokong can come out, it means that this Lord Zhang still has a bit of courage and is a malleable talent." ”

Jing Rong pondered for two seconds and said: "Now that Zhao Mian has been convicted, Heshan will come out soon, but Xiaokong and those children may not be able to get out." ”

Meng Zhou sighed and said, "I don't know, if there is no support behind a school, how can it be so fearless. However, this is easier to do. ”

"What's your opinion?"

"Do you still remember Zhao Mian's performance that night and what he said to Mr. Li about proper handling and accountability."

Jing Rong nodded, and Meng Zhou continued: "Zhao Mian's son died tragically in Shaoguang Hall, it stands to reason that Zhao Mian should personally investigate this matter thoroughly, but he didn't, why do you think it?" ”

It shows that Mr. Li has a lot of background, and Zhao Mian also has some understanding of what Shaoguang Hall has done, and he is investigating this matter to investigate the forces behind himself and Li Lao, and he dare not and can't. Now, as long as the things that Li Lao fancy are devalued, and then try the fish behind Li Lao along Zhao Mian's line from the face, some people can't sit still, and this matter will naturally be solved if there is a trade-off. After Jing Rong finished speaking, he looked at Meng Zhou and said, "What do you think?" ”

Meng Zhou was silent for two seconds, and asked sincerely: "It's all said and done, do you think I still have room to think?" ”

The corners of Jingrong's lips hooked up a momentary smile, and said slowly: "Didn't you still have a question to ask that Master Zhang just now, now you can think about it." ”

"Stingy."

"I hear you."

Meng Zhou pursed his lips, "You and Heshan are really the same in this regard." ”

Jing's heart skipped a beat.

"In the past, every time Heshan saw someone in the village send me something, he was also like you, with a weird look of yin and yang, just say it if you want, and it's not that he won't give it to you." Meng Zhou said and glanced at Jing Rong, who suddenly became cold again, and felt inexplicable in his heart, "You are angry." ”

"Nope."

"Then can you go slower?"

"I can't."

“……”

On the second day, the door of Linshui County Prison opened, and a man in black walked out of it. Meng Zhou saw someone coming, jumped up from the ground, ran over and hugged the figure in a few steps.

"Great, you're finally out."

"Let go."

Hearing Heshan's impatient tone, Meng Zhou let go of his hand, and his tone was not good, "I have worked hard to save you, and besides, we will meet again after a long absence, can you be kind to me." ”

As soon as Meng Zhou finished speaking, he saw that Heshan made a big gift to her in a regular manner, Meng Zhou was stunned, waved his hand and smiled: "It doesn't have to be like this." ”

Heshan's eyes jumped, he stretched out his hand to pull away the Meng Zhou in front of him, raised his body and rushed to the oncoming Jing Rong and said, "Thank you for saving your life." ”

"You're welcome."

Meng Zhou, who was pushed to the side, saw this scene and snorted lightly, "It's really good to sing and harmonize, let's go, take you back to change your clothes, and you still have business to do." ”

Heshan frowned and said, "What trouble are you causing again?" ”

"Tsk, can you think of me, what I did this time is a big thing to save people."

"Hmph, it's good if you don't hurt others."

Meng Zhou folded his arms, raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you dare to bet with me." ”

"Bet on what?"

"If you lose, how about inviting me to the most expensive restaurant in Kyoto, even if you sell yourself?"

Heshan sneered, "Okay, if you mess up, I'll sell you and get back all the money you owed me before, how about it?" ”

"No problem."

Jing Rong walked to the side, listening to the nonsense of the two people around him, only to feel that he was thinking too much about it late at night.

At the end of the morning, Meng Zhou pushed open the door and saw that Heshan still looked like he was going to sleep until he was old, so he sighed in his heart and closed the door gently. As soon as she turned around, she crashed into Jing Rong's arms.

"You're not waiting for me downstairs, what are you doing here?"

Jing Rong took out a letter and handed it to Meng Zhoudao: "Zhang Hou has a letter to see us." ”

Mengzhou nodded, "It's just right, let's go, go and see." ”

After a while, Meng Zhou and Jing Rong followed Zhang Houxin's instructions all the way to a woodland.

Meng Zhou looked at the woodland in front of him, swept his eyes around, and asked Xiang Jingrong vigilantly: "Are you sure it's Zhang Hou's handwritten letter?" I don't think this place is a better place to kill people and bury corpses than to discuss things. ”

"It's better to wait."

As soon as Jing Rong finished speaking, he heard two forbearant calls from above his head. Meng Zhou followed the sound and saw Zhang Hou hanging upside down on a tall tree, his face flushed, as if he couldn't breathe.

"Zhang Cha Envoy?"

Zhang Hou pulled out a smile that was more ugly than crying, and said intermittently: "The two sons, they are below, can you ask the two sons to help you." ”

"That's easy to do." Before Meng Zhou's words fell, he pulled out a short knife from his waist, and in Zhang Hou's frightened eyes, a knife flew on the tree.

There was a muffled sound on the ground, Jing Rong glanced at Zhang Hou who had fallen to the ground, and silently withdrew the blocking hand stretched out in mid-air.

"Zhang Chawan, you're okay."

"It's okay."

"Oh, then you move the place."

Hearing Meng Zhou's indifferent voice, Zhang Hou was a little angry in his heart for a while, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Meng Zhou holding a slingshot straight in front of him, Zhang Hou's eyebrows trembled, and he said in a trembling voice: "Meng Zhou Gongzi, you, you are." ”

Meng Zhou pulled out the slingshot and turned in a different direction, and said, "I take the knife, isn't this afraid of hurting Zhang Cha?" You're not leaving? ”

"Go, go, go."

After a while, Meng Zhou put away the knife and glanced at Zhang Houdao, who was still rubbing his waist: "Didn't Master Zhang write to say that he had something to explain, how could he have time to go up there to see the scenery." ”

Zhang Hou touched his head a little embarrassed, "I do have something to tell the two sons, but I might as well ask the trap made by the hunter for a while, and thank you for helping." ”

"You're welcome, but why did Zhang Cha choose this place to talk about things?"

"There's been a lot of things lately, and some things are not easy to put in the city." Zhang Hou said and took out a dusty baggage, "The things in this are very important, and I want to ask the two sons to take a look." ”

"What is this? Medicine? Meng Zhou was about to uncork the bottle as he spoke, but was held down by Zhang Hou, "Childe can't." ”

Jing Rong stuffed the paper in his hand into Zhang Hou's arms, took the porcelain bottle in Meng Zhou's hand, and frowned: "Be careful." ”

Zhang Hou sighed and said, "Fortunately, Gongzi's hand is not as fast as just now, otherwise even if the Great Luo Immortal descends to earth now, I am afraid that he will not be able to return to the sky." ”

Meng Zhou said: "What's in here?" ”

"Gu worms." As soon as Zhang Hou's words came out, Meng Zhou and Jing Rong were both shocked.

Meng Zhou said: "Gu worm, hasn't this thing disappeared for many years?" How did it end up here? Where did you get this thing? ”

"This thing was taken out of the box on the night I found the county commander's son, and the two sons heard a loud noise outside."

Meng Zhou nodded.

Zhang Hou continued: "That night, when I found the county commander's son, he was curled up all over, and his skinny body was covered with black patterns, I only felt terrible at the time, until there was a loud noise in the room, the left wall collapsed and a hole was opened, and several corpses hidden behind the wall were revealed, and I realized that something was wrong." ”

"How?"

Although the corpses behind the wall are also skinny and bone-like, curled up together, the patterns on their bodies are very different from those of the county commander. The corpses behind the wall had tattooed hands or feet, and they were all open like trees, not like the prince of the county order, as if they were trapped by cobwebs. ”

Meng Zhou said: "So you took advantage of everyone's divergence and went to see the corpse of the county commander in person?" ”

"Yes, I walked in and found that this thing was placed at the feet of the county commander, the bottle was still open at that time, and then I didn't know where to drill out of a worm crawled into the bottle, I looked inside that the worm seemed to have eaten enough, the more swollen and bigger, I was amazed, so I quickly closed the cork of the bottle and quietly brought it out, after that, I came back to read the ancient books to know that this worm was actually a Gu worm that had disappeared for many years."

Jing Rong Dao; "After that, you can see the corpse of the county commander again."

Zhang Hou shook his head and said: "No, after the incident that night, the county commander personally led people to bury people at night. ”

Meng Zhou and Jing Rong glanced at each other, knowing that each other's previous guesses were true.

Jing Rong said, "Do you know where that place is?" ”

"Yes." Zhang Hou said and took out a picture and said, "It's at the red dot in the picture." ”

Meng Zhou took the picture and looked at it carefully, and said, "Your picture is too hasty, how can we find it?" ”

Jing Rong sighed, stretched out his hand to straighten Meng Zhou's head, which he couldn't wait to turn upside down, and said, "You turn around and take a look." ”

"I didn't see any more ways to turn around." Meng Zhou said impatiently stuffing the picture into Jing Rong's hand and said, "Forget it, anyway, with you, you can understand it." By the way, Zhang Cha Envoy, you have worked hard these days. ”

"No, with the help of two sons, I am grateful, let alone hard work."

Meng Zhou said: "By the way, how is Shaoguang Hall doing recently, what should be done by Zhang Errand." ”

"Nature."

"Then I'll be relieved." Meng Zhou said and stood up with the burden on his back and said: "It's just right, Zhang Cha made him injured today and had no intention of official affairs, so let's take it slow if I have the chance." ”

Zhang Hou was stunned for a moment, with a knowing smile on his face, and slowly got up and arched his hand: "Thank you for your concern." ”

"Let's go."

Zhang Hou looked up, and the two backs were moving farther and farther away.
