Qiu Nianzhi felt that he couldn't talk to this kind of abnormal person, he felt that the woman in front of him must be crazy, just like her dead mother and those stable women, they are all crazy, if crazy people in this world have to distinguish them, women are undoubtedly more obsessed than men.

At this moment, Qiu Nianzhi didn't want anything else, he just wanted to know what the truth of the matter was that he had exhausted his efforts to find out, but this woman didn't take him into account at all, he threatened and even beat her before without opening his mouth, and Qiu Nianzhi could see from her eyes that even in the face of the emperor, she should be so stubborn with such eyes.

At this time, Fang Bailu walked over, leaned on the prisoner car and asked, "Did you ask anything?" ”

Qiu Nianzhi hurriedly got up and accompanied by a smile: "Hello Lord Qianban, good morning Lord Qianban, has Lord Qianban eaten?" ”

Fang Bailu smiled: "It seems that you are more attentive than our Tingwei Mansion, you like to investigate cases so much, I have a case I want you to help me investigate." ”

In an instant, Qiu Nianzhi saw the hope of life, and knelt in the prisoner car and kept kowtowing: "Don't worry, no matter what the adults explain, I will go all out, I know everything and say everything, just ask what the adults want to ask." ”

Fang Bailu said: "There are cases, which can be regarded as old cases. ”

Fang Bailu said: "I just received a letter from the Tingwei Mansion. ”

He handed the letter in his hand to Qiu Nianzhi: "This case, others are really not good at helping." ”

Qiu Nianzhi hurriedly took the letter and looked at it, and after a while, his face turned white, and his hand holding the letter paper was trembling: "My lord...... What does that mean? I don't know what the adults want me to ask. ”

"Don't ask anything."

Fang Bailu said: "For hundreds of years since the founding of Daning, there are not many people in Chang'an City who dare to blatantly violate the national law, so the things in the Xiaoyao Building in Chang'an City are still talked about, all the Qinglou women in Chang'an City are not Ning, only the dozen or so girls in the Xiaoyao Building were found to be fake Sang people, in fact, they were girls taken from the countryside, and they were strictly trained since childhood. ”

He looked at Qiu Nianzhi: "Not long ago, an idler went to the Tingwei Mansion to reorganize the case file, and suddenly thought of linking this case with the case of the criminal Mu Zhaotong to investigate, and then found that this case that only found the participation of people in the rivers and lakes at that time was actually Mu Zhaotong's wife, Mu Zhaotong's wife is a Sangren, and she still has a group of dead soldiers under her command, and you were also among them back then, right?" How many of these girls kidnapped from the countryside were you who committed the crime? ”

Qiu Nianzhi shook his head: "No, not one, wronged!" ”

Fang Bailu said: "If you are wronged or not, put aside, you will die anyway." ”

He glanced at Qiu Nian: "Du Tingwei strictly ordered, we are not even allowed to ask about this case, not a word, what do you keep trying to ask from her mouth along the way, you and I are dead?" I can't even ask, you ask? ”

Qiu Nianzhi was so frightened that he began to kowtow again: "Master Qianban, I know that I am wrong, I really know that I am wrong." ”

Fang Bailu stretched out his hand, his subordinate Ting Wei handed him the key, and Fang Bailu opened the door of the prisoner car: "Come out, I will give you a chance to live now, come out and write down everything you know about Mu Zhaotong at the beginning, and it may also be possible to reduce your crimes, although it is more painful to be assigned to the army, it is better than death." ”

Qiu Nianzhi was already like a frightened bird at this time, and Fang Bailu's words seemed to give

He opened a door to live, and he immediately climbed out of the prisoner car: "Know everything, know everything!" ”

"Go over there."

Fang Bailu pointed to the door, where someone had already set up a table.

Qiu Nianzhi hurriedly trotted towards the door: "I must write everything I know." ”

When he reached the table at the door, he was about to reach out and pick up the pen on the table, when suddenly the court lieutenant standing by the table cried out: "Ah! ”

With a miserable howl, the descendant fell softly, which startled Qiu Nianzhi, Qiu Nianzhi immediately looked at Fang Bailu, but saw Fang Bailu draw his sword: "Bold thief, you still dare to commit murder!" ”

Fang Bailu buzzed in his head, and suddenly reacted to something, knowing that he was going to be calculated, he glanced at the open door, and rushed out without thinking about it.

Outside the official post is the avenue, there are few people in the early morning, he gritted his teeth and ran forward, but at this time, the Houhai County soldiers at the intersection heard the shout and ran over, they were ordered to transfer over to assist the people of the Tingwei Mansion to guard the key criminals, and just after changing the guard in the morning, they heard a miserable cry in the official post, and then they saw a down-and-out guy running towards them.

"Stop him!"

The people from the Tingwei Mansion shouted from behind, and the soldiers immediately picked up the crossbow: "Stop! ”

Qiu Nianzhi looked to the side, next to it was a house, of course it was not difficult to climb up with his skills, he immediately ran towards the courtyard wall, his hand just grabbed the upper edge of the courtyard wall, a crossbow arrow hit his heart, the sharp pain came, Qiu Nianzhi screamed, but he knew that if he stopped, he would definitely die, and the people in Tingwei's Mansion didn't know why they suddenly wanted to kill people, so he could only continue to escape.

Puff puff......

Not far away, Fang Bailu was the first to shoot crossbow arrows, and those well-trained box soldiers saw that Master Qianban had shot arrows, and they also aimed their crossbows at Qiu Nianzhi continuously, and after a while, Qiu Nianzhi was hit by dozens of crossbow arrows on his thighs on his back, but the people had not yet climbed the courtyard wall of that house.

There were two crossbow arrows nailed to the back of Qiu Nianzhi's head, and in the end he was powerless to turn it over, first slowly slid down, and then fell to the ground with a plop, there were many arrows on his back, or lying on the ground, this time the crossbow arrows pierced deeper, and it was impossible to live.

Fang Bailu strode to Qiu Nianzhi's side and looked down, with a look of annoyance: "This is bad, this is a crime." ”

A large group of soldiers surrounded him, looked at the dead corpse and then at Fang Bailu, all of them with puzzled and blank faces.

Fang Bailu sighed: "That's it, dispose of the corpse, seal it with lime, and bring it back to Chang'an even if it is dead." ”

His subordinate Ting Wei hurriedly responded, and asked the people of the box soldiers to help see where to buy lime, but in this way, there would definitely be no way to hurry early in the morning, Fang Bailu assigned people to continue to be on guard, and sent people to invite the local county commander and county Cheng to come over and explain the situation, to commit the death in the Houhai County official post, the official post and the magistrate of Houhai County must be reported.

After the arrangements were made, Fang Bailu let out a long breath, sat down next to the empty prisoner car, looked down at the repeater he was still carrying, was silent for a moment, took out a new crossbow box and replaced it, and hung the repeater on his waist.

"You killed him on purpose?"

At this time, the woman in the other prisoner car asked, her name was Huang Niansheng, a name that resembled a man.

Fang Bailu glanced back at her: "What does it have to do with you?" ”

Huang Niansheng seems to be free and easy, and there is no reason

Afraid of someone who just died, or she was already ready to die, she was not even afraid of her own death, and she was afraid of someone else's death, and besides, she was still a person who should have died a long time ago.

"It has nothing to do with me, but I probably guess that it must have something to do with what I'm going to Chang'an to explain."

Huang Niansheng sat up straight, looked at Fang Bailu and said seriously, "Are you going to kill me too?" ”

Fang Bailu stood up, not planning to continue talking to her.

"Looks like they don't intend to kill me."

Huang Niansheng was silent for a moment: "If you open the door of my prisoner car, I will cooperate with you." ”

Fang Bailu glanced back at her: "You are right, I deliberately killed Qiu Nianzhi, I have long wanted to kill, but I am wearing the official uniform of the Tingwei Mansion, I have to be worthy of the law of the country, I just started because I received a letter, you don't need to know what is written in the letter, you just need to know, and then I will do my best to send you to Chang'an safely, you want to meet Your Majesty." ”

Fang Bailu glanced at Qiu Nianzhi's corpse in the distance: "He also wants to meet His Majesty, but he can't go, he thinks that pretending to be scared of his life will make me think that he is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, I am sure that he is a pawn of some people, as long as he sees His Majesty, he will say some words that others have prepared for him a long time ago, and these words will hurt the people I care about." ”

Fang Bailu glanced at Huang Niansheng: "He is also my brother." ”

Huang Niansheng didn't know who he was referring to, but she could see who Fang Bailu was indeed protecting.

Isn't she the same herself? What was her mother doing differently back then?

"I understand."

Huang Niansheng followed Fang Bailu's gaze and looked at the corpse that was already cold: "You didn't kill him before, because you didn't know that Your Majesty was going to interrogate him personally, and someone in the letter you just got told you that Your Majesty was going to see us in person, so you can't keep this person anymore, you would rather gamble on your future and your career, I admire you very much, you have a guardian in your heart, and you are trustworthy." ”

Fang Bailu glanced at her, and his tone softened: "You are the same." ”

He turned around to leave, Huang Niansheng looked at his back and asked, "Do you want to protect the child who has grown up?" ”

Fang Bailu immediately stopped and looked back at Huang Niansheng, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Huang Niansheng smiled with relief: "It's good." ”

She looked at the sky and said to herself, "No one could protect him well then, but now there is." ”

Fang Bailu almost blurted out and wanted to ask what you were talking about, but at the moment when the words were about to be spoken, he thought of Han Zhaozhi's explanation, this case is not allowed to be asked casually, so he held back stiffly.

"The most pitiful thing is that kid, isn't it?"

Huang Niansheng looked at Fang Bailu and asked very seriously: "I know that you should have been strictly ordered not to say anything to me, but I really want to know what that kid is like now, after all, I also wanted to protect him at the beginning...... You say, he is your brother, so he is also from the Tingwei Mansion? It seems that life should be quite good now. ”

Fang Bailu didn't want to say it, but he saw Huang Niansheng's eyes, those eyes were full of longing, sincerity, and a light that he could see clearly, almost holy.

"His name is Shen Leng."

Huang Niansheng froze for a moment when he heard this name, and then laughed: "So that's the case." ”

She let out a long breath: "This world is really good." ”
