At the fifth watch of the next day, when Li Zhen woke up, Liu Yong, the worship room, came to ask for the holy drive. The shoulders are also ready. Li Zhen hurriedly rinsed his mouth with green salt water and ate two mouthfuls of dim sum. Then he ordered to drive and clear the door. During the reign of the first emperor, he made a rule that the emperor must summon ministers every day, and the first emperor himself practiced it. So getting up early has been a habit that Li Zhen has developed since childhood.

When it came to Qianqingmen, it was two o'clock. Li Zhen walked to the back of the screen, and before he sat down, he listened to the court arguing over some trivial matters, Li Zhen felt a wave of disgust for no reason, and he had no will to go to the court, so he ordered Liu to excuse himself and say that he was sick and would be exempt from the court today.

In the imperial study room in the palace, Li Zhen was a little tired after completing the excerpts. There was a 'golden envoy dismemberment case' in the capital first, and now it is a fugitive from Dali Temple who escaped from prison. The old ministers in the court and the central government rely on the old and sell the old, and they use 'when the first emperor is in power...' to press him, he has just succeeded to the throne, and in the face of a group of old horsemen in the court, there is no trace of the majesty of the Son of Heaven at all, and now he urgently needs some merits to deter the government and the opposition.

"It is rumored that the disaster in Beijing is God's punishment for the Son of Heaven for not cultivating virtue, what do you think about this matter?" Li Zhen looked at Wei Yongdao, who was kneeling at the head of the imperial case.

Wei Yong was his confidant when he was still the prince, so when he first ascended the throne, he tried his best to set up the Zhenfu Division, and promoted the right attendant of the Criminal Department, who was still the fourth grade at the time, to be the third-grade inspector of the Zhenfu Division, so as to weaken the Criminal Department.

"It's just that the foolish people are spreading falsehoods, and the saints don't have to worry." Wei Yong said bitterly.

"I don't care what the people say, what I'm worried about is that those with bad intentions take the opportunity to make trouble, since I ascended the throne, I have been living in one conspiracy after another all the time, the enemies on the surface are not terrible, what is terrible is the poisonous snake behind them, they are watching you all the time, as long as I am the slightest negligence, I will lose everything."

"Blood Prison, I only heard my father mention it, I don't know what kind of people they are."

"Back to the saint, the blood prison is the god of the iron Zhengsha from all over the country to arrest the felons, for some reason, the emperor specially ordered Dali Temple to be held alone, because of its strict guard, strict guard, by the prison guards called 'blood prison'."

"Hate, heavily guarded? Is the 'heavily guarded' of Dali Temple a wide open prison door for more than 20 fugitives? ”

"Order the Suppression Division to make every effort to arrest the escaped fugitives, and not leave a single person behind, no matter where they are, and those who resist arrest will be killed on the spot."

"Yes." Wei Yong commanded.

.....

The lead-gray sky, the clouds moving heavily and slowly south, he looked up at the mysterious and fickle sky in silence. An inexplicable melancholy suddenly hit his heart, and Wei Yong stood on the steps outside the door of the Zhenfu Division and took a deep breath, as if he wanted to use this crisp air to dispel the depression in his chest.

It's a really difficult thing to do, and it's a problem that can't be handled. The Criminal Department heard from somewhere that the Holy Commander ordered the Suppression Division to start the fugitive, and it was difficult for the Suppression Division to be in trouble everywhere. Although it is said that it is a criminal lost by Dali Temple, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple have always worn the same pants, and the righteous and bright murderer will inevitably not offend the Criminal Department. Since you have decided to make meritorious contributions, you cannot give them authority.

At the beginning of the morning, there was some light, and groups of Hanako began to beg down the streets again as if they had come out of the ground. The ruined temples under the eaves of the shops west of the city gate were crowded with these people.

It is not difficult to get out of the city, the gate in the west of the city will be opened from time to time even if there is a curfew, in order to facilitate those beggars who have plague to go out of the city, after all, it is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and it is not good for beggars to transmit the epidemic to the nobles.

Hai Wuxian and Yan Chong were mixed in the crowd of those who had the epidemic at this time. The soldiers guarding the city gate stopped everyone for questioning, but San Mazi, who had already been bought by Hai Wuxian, greeted one of them, and they waved the crowd over. No one is looking at Hai Wuxian at all. They were looking for the most vicious criminals, not a bunch of sick men in ragged jackets with straw ropes around their waists.

The sky is cloudy and bright, and the shops in the capital have not yet opened their door panels. The street was dark, except for a column of street patrolmen in the distance, holding a few lanterns, swaying in their hands like ghosts, looking very desolate.

Since the Zhenfu Division received the errand to arrest the fugitives, Wei Ji summoned the four arresters of the Zhenfu Division, Li Zhu, Zhu Zhao, Chen Ao, and Tie Lihua, to search for the fugitives in various places at dawn. Tie Lihua decided to go to Gangnam, one is to search for fugitives, and the other is to solve the 'puzzle'.

The Criminal Department has been keeping an eye on the Suppression Division, so Wei Yong told them not to make a noise and go out of the city in a low-key manner. The sky was about to dawn, Tie Lihua didn't know if Hai Wuxian and Yan Chong could get out of the city smoothly, and she didn't wear a fast suit as Wei Yong ordered, but a woman dressed as a man, dressed as a small maid.

The capital is prosperous, and there are many people. Even if she goes out of the city, it is inevitable that no one will recognize Yan Chong, the original arrest of the Zhenfu Division, so she discussed with Yan Chong, and he Hai Wuxian took the first step and went to Jiangnan to converge.

Before he took control of Qin Huai for the first time, little was known about him. However, he once described himself as "a disgusted, timid child." Jin Cizhi was poor when he was a child, and he was often bullied by some rich people. From then on, Kim was determined to be the best at whatever he did, believing that wisdom was the main factor in protecting himself. Due to his poor background, he mingled with the Qinglou and teahouse where Jiangnan talents often frequented, and sometimes stole books from private schools. Not only that, but he also practiced various kung fu all year round.

Jin Cizhi first followed a group of ruffians on the edge of Qin Huai, slowly bribed local officials, co-opted other people in the surrounding areas, and after unifying the gang, he tried his best to whitewash his bad reputation, from a gangster to a rich businessman who accumulated blessings and did good, but his reputation could not change his explosive character, and he killed several local officials who were not eye-opening, and he was caught in the blood prison by the damned god Tie Zhengsha.

However, God is on his side. Tie Zhengsha, who was known as the god of capture, died, and he also escaped from the blood prison and returned to Jiangnan, turning into the famous Jin Jiu, Jin Dashan.

Jin Jiu, who changed his name, was not just a good fate, while he was working hard, he continued to send silver taels to the nobles in the capital, even if he was imprisoned, he never stopped, and tens of thousands of them flowed into the capital every year. And he is not the only one who has done this, most of the prisoners in the blood prison have their own way. And the head catcher who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, just went to a dead end by himself. "God Hunting" is just a joke.

At this time, Jin Jiu was sitting in a bamboo chair, tasting the Longjing in Hangzhou, the maid next to him was gently shaking the pu fan, Jin Jiu was happy to enjoy everything, the last time he was so happy was after hearing the death of the surname Tie in prison. On the bamboo table next to it was a letter from the capital. Jin Jiu closed his eyes and muttered softly.

"The girl of the Tie family, heh."

The old emperor Yan drove, the new emperor ascended to the pole, amnesty the world, and opened the department to select scholars, which is a practice handed down from several dynasties. In fact, without waiting for the edict to be issued, the people in Jiangnan were already ready to move.

Jiangnan has been prosperous and rich since ancient times, Hai Wuxian and Yan Chong led the horses from the side of the street, only to see Ning Yan, Ming porcelain, the golden jade bowl of the first dynasty, the gold eight treasure screen and the Khotanese jasper bottle on the stall, as well as the overseas imported red sandalwood glass crystal lamp, copper Maitreya Buddha, snuff bottle, celebrity calligraphy and painting.... It's so varied, it's everything.

Yan Chong's face was full of beard at this time, and he didn't know what kind of medicine he had applied, which made his face red, and he was already disguised into another appearance. It's no wonder, after all, his bounty has been posted everywhere.

Hai Wuxian didn't specialize in dressing up, he wore a miserable green robe, his hair was tied up with a bamboo hairpin, and there were no other accessories. Hai Wuxian was arrested when he was young, and his appearance was already different, and the blood prison was dark all year round, and there was no portrait of him for a while.

"Brother Hai, you and I will go to the 'Five Lakes Inn' to settle down first, and the junior sister should be almost there."

"It's okay, I haven't rested much since I left Beijing."

The Five Lakes Inn is the place where Yan Chong and the three of them agreed to meet.

At the same time, in the direction of the official road that Hai Wuxian and the others passed, there was a figure staggering, on crutches, like a beggar, the only difference was that it was cleaner than a beggar, but it was not much different. It was the iron pear flower dressed as a small servant, slowly moving forward on the uninhabited road.

Tie Lihua and the two of them drove their horses a few days ago and rested in a tea house, who would have thought that it was a black shop. After drinking the tea with sweat medicine, the horses and coils were all ransacked. It was probably the black shop that turned over the waist card engraved with the Suppression Division on her waist, and did not do anything to this handsome little girl, but threw it into the wilderness.

When Tie Lihua woke up, she found that there was nothing else on her body except for a token, and Tie Lihua, who was in the wilderness, secretly hated in her heart, "I want to hunt geese all day long, but I was pecked in the eye today, and I also praised the parents of the store for being honest, phew!" Dare to rob if you catch fast, don't let the old lady find you'

Just as Tie Lihua was limping forward, several masked thieves suddenly appeared, stopped Tie Lihua and said, "Huh! I drove this road, I planted this tree, want to cross this road? Leave to buy road money! Zhao Xiaobaojue's words are very Jianghu.

Several of them were originally ruffians near Qinhuai, but when they heard that Jin Cizhi had returned and retaken over Qinhuai, they didn't dare to wander around Qinhuai anymore, so they could only go out to block the road to make some money to spend. However, Zhao Xiaobao had never done such a thing, and waited for a few days in this empty wilderness before he saw a fat sheep passing by. It doesn't matter if he's a rich person or not, he rushed out regardless of it.

Tie Lihua walked in the deserted wilderness for two days, unfamiliar with life, there will not be a little loneliness over there, at this time when she heard the voice, she looked at the few masked people in front of her, and couldn't help but be a little excited. Then he put aside the 'crutches' in his hand and looked at Zhao Xiaobao and the others with a strange expression: "Oh, throat? ”

Zhao Xiaobao saw that the other party was dressed sloppily, obviously knocked by his peers, could it be stupid? So he cleared his throat and continued to shout, "I drove this way..."

Before she could finish shouting, Tie Lihua swung her fist over and shouted, "I'm open? I'll drive you uncle! ”
