When the chaos really calmed down, it was already early the next morning.

The county hall was in shambles, with people moving around from time to time, back and forth, dealing with corpses and traces of the remains of the fire and the aftermath of the battle.

There are occasional cries in the courtyard, the woman's family is emotional, because her status is Mrs. Taishou, she really wants to be willful, and no one can persuade her for a while, Gongsun Zhan, who has been busy all night in the backyard, commands a group of people to work, and listens to the crying and can't help but feel upset and irritable.

He wasn't angry that his wife was still blocking him at this time, after all, the cry was because Gongsun Xu, who was seriously injured by the thief last night and is still unconscious, thought of being escaped by the thief, and he was naturally not in a good mood as a father.

So he spoke a little heavier to the group of subordinates and servants who were hairy, holding the "Wu Zi" that was half-burned into charcoal, pointing at the study room that had been carefully disposed of, and finally calling everyone away impatiently, and pulling the wreckage of the study by himself.

When Liu Weitai and Li Yizi came back, Gongsun Zhan's armor was already jet black, and his face and hands were full of black marks, and the two of them beckoned the servants to go to the other hospital with a few other doctors, and while helping, they talked about the situation, and the tone was quite quiet, and they looked left and right a few times, looking extremely cautious.

"Shops, workshops, burned a lot. There are also the fields outside the city, the seeds that have just been planted, and all the ones have been destroyed by us...... There are many families in a similar situation. Just ......"

Liu Weitai wanted to speak and stopped, Gongsun Zhan just twisted his brows, and on the other side, Li Yizi stretched out his hand and patted the "Mencius" that he found, looking at the bamboo slip that was broken, and fell to the ground in an uproar, he was stunned, kicked the bamboo piece and said with a dry smile: "Big brother, I will say some things directly." The few houses that were destroyed were all attached to your Deran brother before, and they were all waiting outside the door at this time, and some people complained that everyone suffered, but there was no property of your Deran brother's family......"

He Nunu mouthed, and his face was a little unpleasant, "Although his subordinate Jian Xianhe is now out of the house, the enemies on the surface at the beginning have also been cleaned up, and it seems that there are no enemies." This farm and Zhuangfu were attacked again last night, but Liu Gongzi is also a big family in Zhuo County, and the most troublesome in this Zhuo County is your Deran brother, but his workshop in the city...... None of them were destroyed. ”

What is the purpose of these words, Gongsun Zhan naturally understood, pushed Li Yizi's feet, and picked up the bamboo slices, "Deran is also the most famous in Zhuo County today." You say he deliberately retaliated? Impossible! Besides, there are a lot of people involved in those workshops in Deran, and if you really want to say that there are suspicions, it is not impossible for several other businessmen and gentry to attack each other, and it is not impossible to shirk responsibility. ”

"The property of the merchant and gentleman has been abolished. Big brother, if the mall were not for life and death, it would never have used knives and guns in the open, let alone fought so fiercely. Not to mention that now they are out with harmony, crying together and wanting your eldest brother to seek justice. It's not bad. ”

"That's someone framed."

"I'm just guessing. It's just that...... Liu Gongzi was brave, and suddenly he was sick at home. This disease is also really strange. ”

Liu Weitai answered, and saw that Gongsun Zhan's dark face was tense, and the black-faced god was also like that, and said with a dry smile: "And the bamboo slip, it is also abrupt, but you are worried about the weakness of the teacher...... It's not to mention these, Liu Gongzi's guts ......"

He looked at Li Yizi, "We know that Liu Gongzi has the courage of ten thousand people, but at the moment of the great enemy, he handed over all the soldiers to our care, and he and his third brother each guarded one side, and really killed the thieves...... You said that the thieves on both sides are not in the same group, but it is impossible that there is no communication at all, right? Where are there so many coincidences? What's more, he suddenly fell ill just after you came back last night, but it just left you with no reason to find him. This is also a good way to pass the buck. ”

Li Yizi also bowed his head and said: "There is also that county order, I discussed with you yesterday, saying that I wanted to find out the person who sent the bamboo slips, but you can beware of it, but there is a problem with your county guard's mansion." He's good, he hasn't returned from the thief yet, so it's hard to say that he's not erasing the traces. The house next to the county government was burned, but it was a curse, the county government was safe and sound, how did Zhang County Order expect it? ”

Liu Weitai sneered: "Look, could it be that God is hinting at something?" After all, Zhang County ordered to temporarily take care of county affairs in the past, but as soon as you came, with the reputation of Mrs. Liu's son-in-law in the past, as well as his current political achievements, you took a lot of benefits from him. Liu didn't forget that the county order had a good relationship with Liu Gongzi before, but after you arrived, you began to talk to the Fei family who was related to Liu Yuanjun. ”

Gongsun Zhan froze, put the bamboo slip in his hand into Li Yizi's arms, and frowned: "What about Huang Shao?" Go and bring it over. ”

Liu Weitai glanced at Li Yizi, and when Li Yizi left, he looked down at a few half-burned calligraphy, his face was pity, but he also smiled lightly: "Big brother, it's not that it must not be a coincidence." Although Zhang Xianling stammered with the Fei family, I heard that he also wanted to be a vassal and elegant. After all, Liu Yuanjun is a great Confucian, and Fei is not incapable, not to mention that he handles cases impartially on weekdays, and now he doesn't talk to you, which can be regarded as a good official. And Liu Gongzi has some contact with me, and his character is still quite bold. If you really say that there are two sides and three knives, then Lu Shangshu is also ...... So, I don't think it's likely. ”

"Naturally, it can't be. The third brother and the fourth brother are in charge of the shop and the field, and it is natural that they want to find someone to vent their anger. You usually maintain, if you have some excessive words, you should not respond to them, lest I ignore them, and they say that I favor one over the other. ”

Gongsun Zhan raised his head, listened to the crying in the backyard, and smiled bitterly: "Deran is just one person, he has protected the family, I am a good soldier here, but people have harmed my son......"

"I heard that those Wuhuan people were also watching around the mansion at that time. After that, he also helped to kill the thieves...... By the way, listen to Fan Fang, this night, the two lieutenants Qin Qiong and Zhao Xin have not come out of the Qinglou all night, and they have not returned from a hangover, these people ...... It's really high. ”

"Don't care about them, I'm really going to provoke Lao Tzu and tell them to get out!"

Gongsun Chan snorted coldly, looked at several white horse servants on the side, as if he thought of something, and said with a smile: "I heard that there was a vicious fight on Xianzhang Street last night, and there was a guard in Deran who learned from the old dog to leave himself?" Although the thief appeared separately, isn't it also evidence that can exonerate Deran? ”

"Uncle and Ji Yi both said that it was a bitter plan, or they happened to encounter a real thief to retaliate...... Alas, life protects the world, death protects the sky. Flesh and blood are the medium, and the mountains and rivers are the evidence...... It comes from the mouth of a child, but it has the potential to swallow mountains and rivers. The strong man was not alone. The grandson of the horse merchant left quietly before, and really went to buy a bowl of noodles and drank with the strong man for the night. The next day, he carried the body on his back. ”

The two of them fought against Xianbei in the north in the past, and they were both people who were accustomed to seeing life and death, at this time, Liu Weitai naturally had no sadness, and he looked appreciative and admired, "I asked Zidu to prepare some small gifts to send over." I heard that the other people are not doing well either. That Zhang Yide cried all night, thinking that Liu Gongzi was a temperamental, if he woke up, he was afraid of ...... Hehe, I waited for my own brother to have died a lot, but I only sympathized with the suffering of others. Liu was rude. ”

"Thick burial sympathy for these things, you do it for your brother. When the thief is caught, let's worship our brothers. Also, let the kingdom send more men to catch the thieves. No matter what the plans of Zhang Gongyu and Deran are, we have no evidence, so we should focus on the overall situation first, and it is the right thing to get rid of thieves and reassure the people. ”

Gongsun Zhan clapped his hands, and a servant handed over the towel basin on one side, he wiped his face and looked at the courtyard, "The thief that Deran caught, did you let Zidu look at it?" ”

"Naturally, you have to watch. Although the world is in turmoil, Zhuojun still puts the law first. Lynching is ultimately inappropriate. Besides, the two of Qin Qiong ......"

Liu Weitai also washed his hands, and then frowned and said, "It's the two armors last night...... And the iron shield, the blade. The yellow scarf has been removed, and it's not that these things can't be brought, but since Zhao Xin has bad intentions, he may not be able to ...... What the hell are they doing? ”

"It's going to be a big deal to get them here. Recently, I always inquire about Deran, as well as the layout of the farm. Presumably something to do with the Black Mountain thieves...... Recently, you have been watching a little closely, but don't let them do anything to the teacher and Deran. and the group of businessmen, who also beat it. I always felt that Zhao Xin had bad intentions. At the beginning, the teacher thought that retreat was advancing, maybe they still wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. ”

Gongsun Chan waved his hand, "Don't dig it." Let's get down to business. ”

"Okay, I'm going to call the people outside the door...... Heh, that county order hasn't appeared yet, but it may not have avoided them......"

Gongsun Chan shook his head and walked to the back door, "I'm talking about Huang Shao." Those people say that I can still compensate? It's a matter of getting caught with a thief. You ask Uncle to bring Huang Shao next door. Since he was designed, he always wanted revenge...... I'm going to have to hang this fish on the hook and release it to bring out the bigger fish. ”

Liu Weitai was stunned, and then nodded his head.

Not long after, Huang Shao was escorted into a room by Wen Zeli Yizi with a dejected face.

He was escorted to his knees and fell to the ground, his eyes swept around blankly, and he watched Gongsun Zhan sitting on the desk with a big grin, Liu Weitai, Wen Ze, and Li Yizi stood with swords, and laughed a few times, "I am willing to lose the bet." Since he has been caught, if he wants to kill, he must listen to him. As for what you're going to ask me, I'm ......"

"Fan Rou, eighteen years old, born as a fisherman in her family, is a widow...... In recent days, she has gone to the doctor, and she seems to be happy. ”

Huang Shao's face froze, the whole person froze there, Gongsun Zhan rubbed his temples, and said a little tiredly: "Huang Shao, I believe that you were forced to let such a stupid thing happen." This time, since he was left behind, have you ever thought about catching the thief and taking revenge? ”

Huang Shao suddenly solemnized, unconvinced: "Suspicious of joy? ”

"I told a couple of doctors who treated my baby. Fan Rou didn't seem to believe it, and looked for several. Didn't I come to you the night before? Where has she ever been so impotent? I heard from my subordinates that you are also very careful, and the night before was also the first time to keep people. Why, don't you know? Could it be that she was killed by thieves before she had time to say it? ”

Huang Shao's expression was pale, "I ......"

"The pain of despair, I only ask if you want to take revenge?"

Gongsun Zhan said in a deep voice: "Ben is too conservative to tell you the truth. In this chaos, my subordinate goalkeepers were killed and wounded, my only son was seriously injured, and most of the county government was burned. If you really want to take revenge, I will also support you and find out the real culprit, and I will wait for ......"

"Then Liu Zheng was really alone last night?"

Huang Shao asked suddenly.

Liu Weitai replied: "There are actually four people who stopped you, one of whom also broke his arm and has been nursing for more than half a year, and his injuries have not healed. ”

"How can he have the confidence ......?"

Huang Shao's eyes were distracted, and his tone was extremely complicated, as if he was talking to himself.

Gongsun Chan and Liu Weitai looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

After a long time, Huang Shao suddenly asked, "I don't know, does Fu Jun have a clue?" ”

Gongsun Chan frowned, and Huang Shao smiled bitterly: "Who Huang Que is, Huang really doesn't know." As for the person who killed my Rou'er that night...... It's my little brother's fornication...... I have killed him. ”

Gongsun Chan glanced at Liu Weitai, Liu Weitai shook his head slightly, and made a look, Gongsun Chan's eyes were deep, "I caught a few thieves, and those with higher positions committed suicide, even if there is something to say, it is not detailed." I made people recognize their faces, they all came to live in the past six months, saying that they were homeless people, from the south, and the people in the specific places were not clear. But those are all experienced in battle, and I have heard that the horses with whom you have always been your companion are also those people. But he has escaped. ”

"Matai?"

Huang Shao exclaimed, then his face changed, and after a while, his eyes turned a few times, "Fu Jun is not afraid that I will escape when the time comes, or go back and kill your classmate?" ”

"Run? Do you think I'm an idiot? As for Deran...... He suddenly contracted a strange disease, he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and now his pulse is weak, he really doesn't need your hands, maybe he will ......"

Gongsun Zhan paused, squatted down to Huang Shao, who looked stunned, and whispered, "If you really don't know Huang Shao...... Now there are a lot of rumors about the thief outside, and I want you to find out one by one. I came to report this revenge, I will find an opportunity to make you the captain of our school, and let you go north to fight with Xianbei Wuhuan, how about it? It's so much better than being a thief! Also, what are those Wuhuan people looking for you? That Zhao Xin...... If I'm not mistaken, a few of his men disappeared the day before yesterday for no reason, so they went to look for you? ”

Huang Shao smiled bitterly: "Convict Lu Shangshu and Liu Gongzi for the crime of privately hiding military armor...... Countless white horses saw it last night, and they must have known it. ”

Li Yizi's face suddenly turned ugly, "Big brother, isn't this guy trying to threaten you with this to hand over the offering?" ”

That's not true. They also wish they could stay a little longer, so that they can be greedy for money. ”

Huang Shao shook his head and said, "Fight the snake seven inches." Naturally, it is still the weakness of Liu Gongzi and Lu Shangshu. ”

Gongsun Zhan's expression was stunned, he glanced at Liu Weitai, and chuckled: "I really expected it." Zhao Changshou: This is rather credible than credible. There are only two pairs of armor ......"

"As a minister, Lu Shangshu colluded with his disciples to try to rebel and raise the dead? A thousand people practiced at the horse farm and farm before, and it was not that no one saw it, and now that my Taiping Road has been pacified, it is not impossible to really investigate the matter of family soldier training. What's more, the gossip about the ten permanent servants is also from Youzhou and Jizhou. ”

Huang Shao added, and Gongsun Zhan immediately looked at Huang Shao.

Huang Shao smiled bitterly: "If they are not sure, how can they do it easily?" Although they didn't say it explicitly, since they left the day before yesterday, they looked like they were winning, and they didn't make any moves last night, I guess, they brought something enough to settle the situation. That thing, presumably even the prince of the mansion can't protect it......"

"...... the"

Gongsun Chan was terrified, grabbed Huang Shao's clothes, and Liu Weitai and the three of them also looked awe-inspiring.

Huang Shao said with a look of hope: "Fujun, is your promise still valid?" Can Huang really live? ”

"Kill them!"

Gongsun Zhan's eyes were fierce, and suddenly Ziwen Ze took out a saber from his waist and cut the rope on Huang Shao's body, "How many people do you have?" If not, I'll give it to you! Led people to kill Zhao Xin and them! This matter is over! You will go north to Liaodong! I make people ......."

"Big brother! Eldest brother! ”

The sound of Le He Dang running in quickly sounded outside the door, Gongsun Zhan's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, Li Yizi opened the door, and saw Le He Dang running out of breath and said: "Big brother, then Zhao Xin arrived at the gate of the mansion and suddenly took out the holy decree and asked you to go over......"

"It's good if it's not a continuation......"

Gongsun Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, but his body couldn't help but tremble, "Those businessmen are here?" ”

"Yes, I saw it all."

"Eunuchs deceive me too much!"

Gongsun Chan gritted his teeth, looked at Huang Shao fixedly, and after a while, he suddenly took off his armor, opened the window and said, "Ji Yi, you go and stop them, and say that I am out." Zhongshu, Yuan Zheng, you two take Huang Shao and leave quickly, remember to find out the thief. Uncle, you jump out of the window and go out through the back door, let the knife and axe hand prepare here, I will ......"

Suddenly there was a wail outside the door, many people said, "The captain is in charge of us......", in addition, some people shouted, beckoning their subordinates to raise the courtyard inside and out.

Gongsun Chan turned around, and saw Zhao Xin coming over, holding the holy decree in one hand, pushing away Li Yizi who was blocking the road with the other, looking at Gongsun Chan from afar and said with a smile: "Gongsun Fujun was originally interrogating the prisoner next door?" Zhao is bothered, but the things in his hand are very important, and he asks the government to accept the order, but Zhao does not classify you as a fellow party. ”

"Fellow party?"

Several gentlemen and gentlemen discussed it in a sloppy manner, and the corners of Gongsun Zhan's mouth twitched, and he glanced at Huang Shao.

Huang Shao was stunned, and then saw Liu Weitai coming over, with the head knife around his waist close at hand, and then looked at Qin Qiong and the others beside Zhao Xin, and then lowered his head.

Gongsun Zhan secretly clenched his fists and tendons, and when he heard Zhao Xin's urging, he knelt on the ground, and at the same time, everyone knelt down, Zhao Xin smiled, spread out the holy decree and read it......
