On the third day after the fire, Zhang Yang finally confessed to his accomplice under torture.

It's just that when Commander Xia went to look for it, he found that the man seemed to have gotten the news in advance, and just a moment before he arrived, he left the general's mansion.

Commander Xia questioned Zhang Yang for a long time, but Zhang Yang always refused to confess the mastermind behind him.

That person seemed to be kind to Zhang Yang, so he called him so desperate, after a long time, Commander Xia knew that Zhang Yang would not get any useful news from his mouth, so he simply came to ask Qian Baihan for his intentions, and was ready to hand him over to Yang Yuecheng.

"Your Majesty has made an order for Yang Yuecheng to thoroughly investigate the fire in the house, and his subordinates think, now that Zhang Yang can't ask anything, why not send him to Yang Yuecheng, maybe there will be some progress." Commander Xia stood in front of Qian Baihan's bed, arched his hand and said to him: "Even if you can't ask, you can be regarded as giving him a favor." ”

Qian Baihan nodded, "Send it over!" lest Your Majesty think that I deliberately lost Yang Yuecheng's face and refused to cooperate with him. ”

Seeing that he agreed, Commander Xia responded: "Yes, then the subordinates will do it." ”

"Go ahead! Don't be impulsive with him. ”

"Yes, my subordinates know."

Commander Xia left, Qian Baihan glanced out the window, and quickly moved his gaze to the scroll in his hand again.

After a while, a maid came to report: "General, the girl is here." ”

"Please come in!"

"Yes!" The maid answered, and brought Lu Qingzi, who was waiting outside the door, to Qian Baihan's bed.

"Better?" Lu Qingzi sat on the chair brought by the maid, looked at Qian Baihan and said.

Qian Baihan smiled, "Every day in bed, I don't feel anything good or bad." ”

"Fushang Langzhong said to wait another three or five days, and then you can get out of bed." Lu Qingzi said.

Qian Baihan nodded and asked Lu Qingzi, "Come here now, what's the matter?" ”

"I want to ask Chu Lie to go out with me to lie down, I don't know if he has an errand today." Lu Qingzi said to Qian Baihan: "The person who delivered the letter for me seems to have news. ”

Qian Baihan was stunned, "Is there any news?" ”

Lu Qingzi nodded seriously, lowered his voice and said, "The secret guard sent out just came to report, and it is in this capital, I want to go out and try my luck." ”

Qian Baihan thought for a while, and said to Lu Qingzi: "Chu Lie and Xue Shuangling are not in the house today, ask Mu Xuan to go with you!" His kung fu is also better than Chu Lie's. ”

Lu Qingzi was a little hesitant, but he still nodded, "Okay!" ”

"Mu Xuan seems to have something on his mind lately?" Qian Baihan's eyes showed doubts, Mu Xuan looked vicious, and he usually didn't talk much, but since the last time he went back to Fenghua for Lu Qingzi to watch Wen Ye and the others, he was a little sullen after he came back.

"Yes?" Lu Qingzi pretended not to know, and said to Qian Baihan: "Then I'll help you ask when you go out this time." ”

Qian Baihan didn't say anything, although Mu Xuan can be regarded as his right-hand man, but it is a little inappropriate to inquire about his private affairs at this time.

Lu Qingzi seemed to see through his thoughts, but he didn't say anything, only said, "I'll leave first, and I'll come to see you at night." ”

Qian Baihan looked at her and admonished, "Be careful on the road." ”

"Hmm." Lu Qingzi answered, then got up and left to find Mu Xuan.

When the two of them left the house, Mu Xuan had already changed into civilian clothes, and Lu Qingzi walked all the way to see it, and there was no place to go.

The dark guard only said that it was a man, and the only thing that was certain was that it was still in the capital, and the others were no longer clear.

Lu Qingzi wanted to know who the man was, so he could only try his luck in this capital according to the back described by the secret guard.

Somewhat thin and as tall as Chu Lie, Lu Qingzi walked while watching the pedestrians coming and going on the street.

I just walked all morning, and I didn't find a single suspicious one.

There are thin ones, but many of them are taller than Chu Lie, that is, shorter than Chu Lie, or too strong.

Seeing that it was noon, Lu Qingzi sighed and said to Mu Xuan: "Let's go eat first!" ”

Mu Xuan nodded, followed Lu Qingzi to a noodle restaurant, asked for two bowls of beef noodles, and found a place to sit casually.

Who knew that as soon as he sat down, he heard a man's fierce voice at the door: "Old man Zhang, haven't you paid this month's silver?" I'm still waiting for my grandfather to get it myself, right? ”

Lu Qingzi turned his head when he heard this, and saw that a man with long shoulders and a round waist had already entered the store with a few people, and when he saw that the guests in the store were looking at him, he immediately shouted: "What do you see, don't you want to live anymore?" ”

Those present immediately turned their eyes back and continued to eat their noodles.

The man with a big waist walked to the counter, and the shopkeeper had already stuffed the silver in his hand into his hand, and said flatteringly: "Uncle Chen, our small shop is not doing well, so just a little silver, please be tolerant and tolerant." ”

Lu Qingzi glanced at the shopkeeper, who was obviously sixty years old, but he called a middle-aged man in his forties uncle? What kind of world is this now?

"Just a little bit of silver?" The man with a big waist and a round waist seemed to be dissatisfied with the silver given by the shopkeeper, and his voice revealed dissatisfaction.

Shopkeeper Zhang said all the good things and finally coaxed the people away.

Before leaving, the attendant who followed him suddenly turned his gaze to Lu Qingzi's body, "Big brother, this little lady is really in good shape!" ”

The man stretched out his hand and slapped him on the head, and said to him, "Have you forgotten how the master explained?" Let's go! ”

After the attendant was beaten, he didn't dare to look at Lu Qingzi again, and replied repeatedly: "Yes, yes, it's a small one that doesn't have a long memory." ”

After they left, the shopkeeper stood in front of the cabinet and sighed, which looked a little unbearable.

Lu Qingzi retracted his gaze and asked Mu Xuan softly, "How often does this happen?" ”

Mu Xuan shook his head, "My subordinates almost never eat outside, and this is the first time I've encountered this." ”

Lu Qingzi didn't speak, and continued to eat noodles thoughtfully.

He originally thought that such a thing would only happen in Qingfeng City again, but he didn't expect that there would be such a thing in the capital at the foot of the Son of Heaven.

Listening to the man's words just now, it seems that there is someone behind him, so he dares to be so blatant.

Thinking so, Lu Qingzi came to the counter to settle the bill after eating the noodles.

"No need to look for it." Lu Qingzi handed over a piece of loose silver, looked at the shopkeeper Zhang and asked, "Who were those people just now?" ”

Shopkeeper Zhang paused for a moment and said to Lu Qingzi: "This is unacceptable, this is enough to eat ten bowls of noodles." ”

Lu Qingzi said: "Take it!" The bento is the reward for my question. ”

Shopkeeper Zhang said a few more words, but when he saw that he couldn't refuse, he had no choice but to accept it.
