Qi Baoguo is a hundred households in Jinyiwei, and this time he went south to find Qi Ling'er for private matters, and he took leave of absence from the commander Liu Shouyou Liu.

Of course, Commander Liu will definitely give Qi Zongbing face, and immediately granted Qi a three-month leave to report to the country, which means that you don't have to worry about the affairs in the hundred households, and someone will help you take care of it.

Qi Baoguo can go south with confidence, but it is impossible to take Jinyi with him. After all, this is not a business trip, and if someone catches you, it will be troublesome.

Most of the civil officials start from these small places, but they still occupy the moral high ground, so you can't justify it at all.

Qi Baoguo didn't plan to cause trouble for his father, so he obediently took more than a dozen veterans left by Qi Jiguang and rode all the way south on the official road.

He is a military attache of the Ming Dynasty, and more than a dozen veterans are also officers and soldiers, so he can naturally live in the post station, even so, he still acts low-key, for fear of being targeted.

If you make a mistake, he will be impeached, and if you don't impeach a few copies, how can you show their sense of existence, how can you show their importance?

Fortunately, now that Qi Baoguo has arrived in Jingzhou, he lives in an inn instead of an official house, so he is not afraid of these old horsemen for the time being.

Of course, his original intention was to bring Qi Ling'er back to Jingshi as soon as possible, and he was not going to stay too much in Jingzhou.

It's a pity that Ning Xiu disappeared, and he had to stop and investigate.

No matter what Ning Xiu says, he is also his future brother-in-law who will repay the country, and he naturally can't stand by when his brother-in-law is in trouble.

Qi Jiguang trained in the southeast and trained an invincible Qi army, relying on strict military discipline.

This army later followed him north to Jizhen and was mixed into the local guard officer army, playing the role of passing on the help.

Qi Jiguang specially allocated more than a dozen people for Qi to report to the country this time, because he was afraid that there would be any danger on the way to Qi Baoguo.

These dozen people are not ordinary veterans, but Qi Jiguang's personal soldiers.

At the beginning, he followed Qi Jiguang all over Fujian, Zhejiang, and Shandong, and killed him in the bloody rain, but he was experienced in a hundred battles and had a skill.

Early the next morning, under the orders of Qi Baoguo, each of them brought dozens of Zhangfu family members to search in Jingzhou Mansion. As for the city, it was handed over to Sun Wufan. He knew countless merchants and was well-informed. Any change in which workshop can be found out at the first time.

This way of obtaining information is even faster than the government posting notices, receiving reports from the people and then questioning them.

But the matter of Ning Xiu's disappearance was obviously more complicated than they imagined, and there were not too many clues after asking around.

Sun Wufan couldn't help but be anxious.

However, there has been progress on Qi Baoguo's side.

Jinyiwei already had a set of tracking, coupled with the keen sense of smell of the veterans of the Qi family's army, and under their carpet search, they finally found that yesterday, the day Ning Xiu disappeared, dozens of horses galloped out of Jiangling City and headed towards Phoenix Mountain.

Thinking about it with his toes, he knew what this meant, and Qi Baoguo immediately went to the Inspection Department to question.

Inspector Han Danian was drinking freely in the government office, and heard a report from his subordinates that the Lord of Jinyi Wei Baihu came to the outside of the government office, and he was so frightened that he threw away his wine glass and got up to greet him.

Obediently, why did the good Jinyiwei come to Jingzhou?

Could it be that there has been a big case recently? But he hadn't heard of it.

The inspection department is in charge of patrolling a county, responsible for arresting thieves and maintaining law and order in the county.

If something really goes wrong, the county lord is certainly responsible, but he can't run this inspection either.

When Han Danian came to the outer hall to salute the country, he was extremely worried.

Of course he won't recognize the wrong person, the flying fish suit, the embroidered spring knife is too conspicuous, as long as there is nothing wrong with the eyes, people will not admit it.

"The subordinate Jiangling County inspected Han Danian and met with the hundred households."

Han Danian fell to his knees with a thud, kowtowed three heads to Qi Baoguo, and his legs and stomach trembled.

It's no wonder that he is unproductive, but the difference in the identities of the two sides is too great.

The inspection is a positive nine grades, which belongs to the last official position. And Jinyi Wei Baihu is the sixth grade, so high that he doesn't know where to go.

What's more, the Beijing officials are expensive, and the local officials are cheap, even if they are of the same grade, the Beijing officials are tougher than the local officials.

Coupled with the special identity of Jinyiwei, Han Danian didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere.

"Come here, the official has something to ask you."

Qi Baoguo is already tall and burly, plus he has a national face, a high forehead and a wide face, starry eyebrows and sword eyes, and he is not angry and arrogant.

Han Danian was so frightened that he was about to pee, and when he heard the command of Lord Baihu, he quickly stood up tremblingly, and moved his steps to Qi Baoguo's approach.

Qi Baoguo sniffed, frowned and said, "Have you drunk?" ”

Han Danian is an alcoholic, and he can be described as an alcoholic. Every day in the government office, he had to drink several pots of fine rice wine, and he often drank until he was drunk.

This sky-high smell of wine, it is difficult for Qi Baoguo not to smell it.

Han Danian fell to his knees again, kowtowing like pounding garlic.

"My lord spares his life, Xia Guan should be damned, and he drank a pot of wine when he was aroused, and he will definitely not dare in the future."

The Ming Dynasty had a clear rule that officials were strictly forbidden to drink and play in the government office.

But a regulation is a regulation, but the actual implementation is another matter.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, some people may have taken this regulation seriously, but in the late Ming Dynasty, it was already a dead letter.

Not to mention drinking in the government office, it is not for nothing to have fun in the government office.

Anyway, the emperor is far away, how many people know if you don't say it, I don't say it?

But Han Danian definitely couldn't say these words to Qi Baoguo, so he had to admit that he was unlucky. Whoever told him to drink when he bumped into Lord Jinyi Wei Baihu Qi who came to the door.

"Get up, don't kneel at every turn, the official doesn't blame you."

Qi Baoguo waved his hand, his face slightly displeased.

"Hey, yes, the subordinate obeys the order."

Han Danian hurriedly got up, bowed like a shrimp, and waited at Qi Baoguo's side with his hands down.

"The official has something to ask you, and you have to answer truthfully."

Qi Baoguo doesn't plan to go around in circles with Han Danian. Ning Xiu's life and death are uncertain now, and his life will be in danger if he wastes a moment.

"Yes, the subordinate must know everything, and he must say everything."

"Yes. I ask you, how many people rode out of the city yesterday? ”

Qi Baoguo asked in a deep voice with one hand behind him.

"This ......"

Han Danian said in his heart, isn't there nothing to do with the hundred households, there are so many cars and horses coming out of the city and entering the city this day, and they can't be tired to death after checking one by one?

"Why, can't you find it?"

Qi Baoguo's tone suddenly turned cold, and Han Danian was frightened and said in a trembling voice: "I found it, of course I found it." Xiaguan has a record of people entering and leaving the city every day, please wait for a while. ”

After saying that, he turned around and instructed the scribes of the inspection department: "Come on, why don't you go and take out the notebook of the registration personnel entering and leaving the city, and check how many people rode out of the city yesterday!" ”
