"This is an inland river in Hangzhou, although it looks calm, but there is still a certain flow direction."

"You're saying the river is going from south to north."

"Yes, in addition, in an hour and a half, the corpse has moved so much, if we know the approximate time of death after the investigation, we can deduce the approximate location of the man who fell into the water."

"Lord Wang, you have a dense mind, and Ma admires it."

Guards.

Feng Sheng said to Wang Laohu: "There is an agent who has reported that King Ning's people have appeared twenty-five miles away from Hangzhou. ”

Twenty-five miles, this is a very sensitive distance, looking at the distance and time, today King Ning's people will go to Hangzhou.

"How many of them came?"

"Hui Gongzi, it seems that there will not be more than 20,000 people."

"20,000?" This number is not big, but it is not small, "We have to prepare well to welcome our old friends." ”

"Childe doesn't seem to be worried about King Ning's arrival?"

"Compared to King Ning and Jinyiwei, which of the two of them is more fearful?"

"Of course, it's Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei is directly ordered by the capital, and has actual power, and he can even be above adults."

"King Ning looks menacing, but there are obvious differences from Jinyiwei. First, he is just a local prince, and it is impossible for him to manage Zhejiang; Second, I am also a commander appointed by the emperor, and even if he wants to deal with me, it is impossible for him to be so blatant; Thirdly, the number of his troops was only 20,000, which was less than one-fifth of the size of our garrison. ”

"Childe's analysis is reasonable."

"But we still have to be prepared. To despise but not underestimate, King Ning can continue to expand on one side, there must be something unique about him. ”

"Yes, Childe. Regarding the movements of King Ning's people, our people have been watching. ”

"Is there any movement in the Qian Mansion?"

"Qian Kebai seems to have lived a lot after the last incident."

"This time, King Ning's people came, and they followed his wishes, I don't know what kind of moth he will give me."

"Qian Kebai, with his little wisdom, shouldn't be able to think of anything."

"Don't underestimate him, this time he divided his troops to make us unguardable, and the soldiers were divided into three ways, and they were cunning."

"Childe said this, we still have to guard against Lord Qian."

"People outside the Qian Mansion can't be withdrawn." Wang Laohu said, "In addition, there is anything unusual about Jinyiwei's side." ”

"It doesn't seem like they're doing anything out of the ordinary." Feng Shengdao.

"Today, a floating corpse was found in the inland river of Hangzhou, is this floating corpse ......?" Wang Laohu wanted to ask if this floating corpse was a newly captured Jinyi guard.

"We haven't dealt with that guy yet." Feng Shengdao.

Wang Laohu was relieved now, originally Wang Laohu still had to worry about whether this person was killed by him or drowned, whether he handled it well, and whether he was dealt with cleanly. Although he also said that he would deal with the people who were captured, if he did so

Come, in case someone finds out, the consequences are really unimaginable, the prefect originally handled the case, and would not come to inform Wang Laohu, but Master Ma came to inform Wang Laohu, originally thought that Lord Ma found out something, but now it seems that he is more worried.

"Did you interrogate you?"

"It's unlikely that this man would speak." Feng Sheng said, "Childe, you also know that agents have undergone special training, and if they will speak easily like this, then they will not be called agents." ”

"I wish he had spoken." Wang Laohu said, "Now that several major forces in Hangzhou have arrived, it will indeed take some effort to survive in the cracks. ”

"King Ning's people, Jin Yiwei. Childe, one is in the light, the other is in the dark, the person they are targeting is you, we can't come to the golden cicada to shed its shell and reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

"The method you mentioned, if it works, it would be great, it would be effortless, to channel the power to both of them, and we could still watch the fun." Wang Laohu said: "If you think of a way to come out, we will borrow our strength." ”

"Yes, this matter is not urgent, let's find the right time to do it."

In the evening, the guard.

Wang Laohu was at the command headquarters, and a soldier came to report: "General, Master Qian is here to visit." ”

Before Lord Qian visited, Feng Sheng had already informed Wang Laohu one step in advance that King Ning's people had arrived in Hangzhou, and the first stop was Qian Mansion.

Now that Qian Kebai has come to visit the guard, it is very likely that King Ning's people came to the guard with Qian Kebai.

"Yes, please." Wang Laohu said.

Sure enough, as Wang Laohu expected, it was King Ning's people who followed closely behind Qian Kebai.

"Lord Qian," Wang Laohu stepped forward to greet him, "General Qi, it turned out to be you, come, come, please take a seat." ”

Qi Lian said: "I didn't expect us to say goodbye to Hangzhou, and if you come back this year, you have become the commander of Hangzhou." ”

"General Qi, you are a rare guest, you came to our Hangzhou this time, but you have to stay for a few more days, let me do my best as a landlord." Wang Laohu said with a smile.

"I'm here to stay in Hangzhou for a few days, and I'm going to trouble Lord Wang these days."

"General Qi is polite." Wang Laohu smiled.

A soldier brought a few cups of tea and placed them in front of several adults.

Wang Laohu said: "I don't know if General Qi came to Hangzhou this time for business, or?" ”

"I heard that Hangzhou has a new commander, and Prince Ning asked me to visit."

"Oh, I see." Wang Laohu smiled, "You see I'm so busy, how can I let the prince come over, I should take the initiative to visit first." ”

Qi Lian smiled and said, "This is a courtesy exchange, all the same, all the same." ”

"Last time, I had a lot of misunderstandings with General Qi, but we didn't know each other, and with the misunderstanding last time, I believe there will be no new misunderstandings between me and General Qi."

"That's that, that's." Qi Lian said, "However, I came this time and took over a task from the prince. ”

"General Qi is the prince's right-hand man, what he asked you to do

It must be something important. Wang Laohu said.

"Haha, this matter is not a big deal, but it has something to do with General Wang."

"Something to do with me?" Wang Laohu said in surprise, "The prince won't be so stingy, urge General Qi to come and see the prince." ”

"You are really joking, the prince is very angry with General Wang, on the one hand, let me come to see General Wang, on the other hand, the prince asked me to ask you a word."

Wang Laohu felt that the point was coming, so he listened attentively.

"General Wang, what is the purpose of your embarrassment for Lord Qian in Hangzhou, as well as the investigation of the violent death of Master Sedum, the case of the destruction of the Lu family in Anhui, and the case of 100 people in Liaofu in Laoxian County who were poisoned overnight?"

Wang Laohu said: "How can you talk about these things in a good way." ”

"Don't interrupt, General Wang, General Qi is asking you?" Qian Kebai interjected.

"You have to answer me." Wang Laohu asked.

"It's not true." Qian Kebai said, "If you have the ability to investigate, you have the ability to answer General Qi's question." ”

"Do you really want to say?" Wang Laohu continued to ask.

"General Wang, don't give me sloppy eyes, you must explain this matter to me clearly." Qi Liandao.

"Okay, since General Qi wants me to say it, I'll say it directly, it all comes down to Lord Qian."

"Me?" Qian Kebai is incomprehensible.

"Yes, that's him. You know that I have just taken up the command of Hangzhou, and there are many things waiting for me to do, but this Lord Qian, regardless of his son-in-law, still does everything possible to rob me of women. ”

"Lord Qian, is there such a thing?" Qi Lian asked.

"It's true, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the general's question and answer." Qian Kebai replied.

"You don't want to change the problem." Qi Lian reminded Wang Laohu.

"I'm just answering the general's question, don't you know, this Qian Kebai not only taught his son a lesson, but the two fathers and sons combined to plot against me, you know that I just became an official, Lord Qian's officialdom has a wide and deep relationship, I was by him like this, can I still mix in the officialdom? So I ordered someone to go and investigate the matter of Lord Qian. ”

"It seems that the Anhui Lu family extermination case, Lord Qian didn't know about it?" Qi Lian asked.

"I started the investigation with the case of the Liu Mansion in Hangzhou, and only then did I find out that the Anhui Lujia case was implicated in the Liu Mansion case." Wang Laohu said.

"So, General Wang has no choice but to investigate these cases?" Qi Liandao.

"I told Lord Qian a long time ago, this is a misunderstanding between the two of us, so I have returned all the evidence drawn by Mr. Qian to Mr. Qian, I hope that the two of us can rebuild the old friendship, after all, we are both going to be officials in Hangzhou, I don't look up and see you, but now it's good, he complained to Lord Ning."

Qi Lian looked at Qian Kebai and said, "Is there such a thing?" ”

"Yes." Qian Kebai said.

"The prince asked me to come, not to stir up the conflict between the two of you, if the two of you can rebuild the old friendship, that is exactly what the prince meant."
