Lai Sheng stood in Ning'an Hall, pacing back and forth, for a long time, before he saw Jia Qingshi Shiran walking out from behind the screen. （）

"Second master, something happened ......"

Lai Sheng stepped forward in two steps, approached Jia Qing, and said in a hurry.

Jia Qingxing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sat calmly on the main seat.

"What's ......?"

"I heard that there was an assassin in the house of Lord He last night, and Lord He was seriously injured because of this, and his life and death are unknown......"

Jia Qing's hand holding the armrest of the chair loosened slightly, and asked lightly, "Oh, there is such a thing...... I don't know who the murderer is? ”

Lai Sheng said: "I don't know who the murderer is yet, but I heard that it seems to be a woman." ”

"What?"

Jia Qing asked in surprise, a woman, how could she be a woman's ......?

Lai Sheng glanced at Jia Qing in slight surprise, not understanding why his second master was so surprised.

"That'...... Has the murderer been caught? ”

"Caught ......"

Jia Qing's hand tightened, but there was not too much expression on his face, only to hear Lai Sheng continue: "It is said that the woman's skills are really extraordinary, after being discovered, the nursing home of the He Mansion actually couldn't help her, and later alarmed the officers and soldiers who patrolled the night, so she was taken down, and now she has been imprisoned in the Shuntianfu prison." ”

Lai Sheng was also very surprised, in these years, there were still people who dared to assassinate Shoufu in the capital. It's just that after finishing speaking, he found that Jia Qing didn't seem to be listening to him seriously, just frowning and pondering, and Lai Sheng didn't dare to say anything to remind him, so he had to stand there with his head down, waiting for Jia Qing's instructions.

Suddenly, Lai Sheng only felt that Jia Qing's body seemed to tremble, but when he raised his head to look, he saw that Jia Qing's complexion was not at all as calm as usual, and there was a terrible look in his eyes, which made him feel uneasy.

Fortunately, in just a few breaths, Jia Qing calmed down again.

"Go down...... Inquire carefully, have news, come back to me as soon as possible! ”

"Yes."

Although Lai Sheng felt that something was wrong with Jia Qing, he didn't understand the reason, and he didn't dare to ask more, so he had to go on as he said.

"Someone."

"In!"

With Jia Qing's summons, the little guy guarding the door ran in.

"What do you have to say from the second master?"

"Tell Wang Shun and let him call Brother Yun to me!"

......

The Shuntianfu Yamen is usually a relatively idle yamen.

There are many yamen in the capital, and it is the residence of the Son of Heaven, and there are not many people who dare to make trouble in the capital, so every day the officials of the yamen just go to the yamen on time to order a mao, and the others are either hiding in one place to brag and fart, or even gather in a small hut to gamble a little money, or simply skip work and go home to sleep with their mother-in-law in their arms.....

Today was different, many lazy people came over, ready to order as always, and then the officials who should do what they should do soon noticed that the atmosphere of today was unusual.

These most slippery little officials all restrained their laziness one by one, and pretended to report in the room. Then he didn't dare to leave, but grabbed his good friend, or was on duty last night, and asked what the situation was......

When they heard that it was actually the assassin in the house of Lord Shoufu, and now that the murderer was locked up in the yamen, where did they dare to be lazy, and they all cheered up one by one, quickly went to their posts, and stood in their positions.

As a result, the first government of the dignified government has a rare sense of slaughter.

"Dada......"

A group of people drove across the street. The sharp-eyed little official saw the identity of the person who came, and before the other side approached, he immediately ran inside and passed on their prefect.

Soon the prefect of Shuntian came out with his two subordinates, and when he saw the person coming, he immediately stepped forward enthusiastically and said: "I don't know if Zhang Zhuangyuan is driving, there is a loss of welcome, there is a loss of welcome!" ”

Zhang Ziwen, who was walking inside, didn't expect the other party to be so enthusiastic, so he hurriedly stepped forward and took the lead in giving a salute, saying, "The prefect is polite, but the lower officials really don't dare to be officials." ”

"Where is it, Zhang Zhuangyuan is Wu Butang's confidant and favorite general, and he is also the champion Lang, I'm afraid that in a few years, Zhang Zhuangyuan will be able to show his skills in the court, this is the official, I really can't afford to be a ......"

The prefect of Shuntian warmly took Zhang Ziwen's hand, helped him up, and said with a smile.

Zhang Ziwen was a little speechless. He's just a little six-grade principal, this kind of hospitality is too much, right? Can't afford it......

However, the sedan chair person lifts people, since the other party gives face so much, he will not not go down, and he also smiled and politely said a few words, and then explained his intention:

"When Lord Shoufu was assassinated, the Holy Lord was furious and ordered the Criminal Department to have full authority to investigate the case. The lower officials were ordered to come and escort the prisoners to the criminal department for trial, and asked the prefect to facilitate them, and the lower officials would be grateful. ”

When the prefect of Shuntian heard this, his eyes lit up, and then he hesitated: "Since Lord Zhang is here on order, there is naturally no reason for this official not to cooperate, but this is ......."

Zhang Ziwen confessed what he meant, took a document from the hand of the follower next to him, handed it to him, and said with a smile: "This is a promotion document issued by the minister, and I also ask the prefect to look at it." ”

"Hey, Lord Zhang is too polite, how can this official not trust Lord Zhang...... Lord Zhang, please ...... inside."

The words of the prefect of Shuntian sounded good, but he quickly took over the paperwork, opened it and scanned it, saw the big seal of the criminal department stamped on it, and smiled with great satisfaction, then he closed the document again and asked Zhang Ziwen to go inside.

Zhang Ziwen smiled slightly, but he didn't mind. The stakes are high, and the other party should be cautious, and it is not wrong.

After some handover and the relevant procedures were completed, Zhang Ziwen refused the invitation of the Shuntian prefect to stay for tea, took the relevant people with him, and escorted the criminal to the prison of the Criminal Department.

......

Only more than 20 miles away from the capital, there is a village, called Peach Blossom Village, there is a not too big manor in the village, called Rosewood Castle, was originally a place where a squire lived, and later it is said that in order to avoid the enemy, the family left here and moved to another place, leaving this Zhuangzi.

Later, it was taken down by a group of people with a rather mysterious origin, and then, the situation inside could not be known to outsiders, but some young girls were often seen haunting it, which made the villagers in the village feel a little curious.

At this time, in a main house in the Rosewood Castle, more than a dozen women in white clothes and swords gathered here, but the atmosphere was not very good.

"Sister Fu, Miss, they didn't come back overnight, something must have happened, we can't wait any longer."

A woman said anxiously to Fu Huiwen, who was sitting in front of her.

Fu Huiwen is the eldest sister of the original Qingshuang Hall, and she is also the eldest sister who went to Jia Qing in front of Jia Qing to save the Qingshuang Tang sisters last time she was in Jiangnan.

After Jia Qing rescued the hundreds of women in Qingshuang Hall, he had nothing but one or two hundred horses for them. In this world, even a woman who can punch and kick is difficult to survive alone.

Therefore, except for a very small number of people who chose to leave, most people chose to follow Wu Xian'er and join Xuewei, who originally belonged to the same sect as them.

Wu Xian'er naturally had no reason not to take it in, and it happened that Jia Qing gave her such a large sum of silver, she only brought a small part to escort her father-in-law back to Wudang Mountain, and handed over the rest to Xuewei, so that they would be in the nest.

Therefore, in fact, the days they spent in Peach Blossom Village were not short, but they just followed Wu Xian'er's orders and did not contact Jiafu again.

Every day, I just practice kung fu behind closed doors, occasionally go out to inquire about the news, and live a group house like a mountain of empty food.

The news that the top leaders of the White Lotus Sect were going to be all beheaded was known on the second day, and when they had nothing to do, and Lu Zhu was ready to stop following Wu Xian'er's orders and ask for help from Jia Mansion, it happened that Wu Xian'er also arrived.

Therefore, there will be Wu Xian'er visiting Ning Guofu at night.
