The discussion outside the county government has never stopped, and the people have never left, and more and more rumors have gradually spread.

However, half an hour later, the answer was put in front of everyone.

I saw a deep blood mark on Jing Bo's face, and even blood was faintly oozing out along the trace.

Zhang Xingcheng's face was full of unhappiness, and he didn't take care of anyone, so he left the county office directly, got on the horse and left in a hurry with a group of people.

From beginning to end, Jing Bo was accompanied by a smiling face, but his face showed endless helplessness.

Well, at this point, this heated topic that has been discussed has finally come to fruition.

The big guy from the court didn't arrest Jing Bo, but the blood stain on Jing Bo's face was clear, and everyone saw it in their eyes, and they couldn't hide it if they wanted to.

Seeing the group of people leaving, Jing Bo shook his head helplessly, and returned to the yamen with a bitter face.

It is said that hitting people doesn't hit their faces, but this time they have to hit their faces, and if they hit their bodies, they can't take off their clothes to show others, right? That's too obvious.

Soon, the topic of Jingbo being cleaned up instantly spread throughout Sanyuan, but it is an unsolved mystery as to why Jingbo got into trouble with the big guy in Chang'an.

"Fourth...... The fourth ......" A man beckoned to Yiwuhou with a smile on his face, some people are different, their own fourth child is on an errand in the Yamen, and this product is a master who likes gossip more, so he naturally refuses to let go of this opportunity.

Since Zhang Xingcheng and his party left in the morning, this product has been waiting on the street, and it was not until near noon that I saw my fourth child.

Seeing the fourth child walking towards him, the man took two steps forward with a thief's face, "Fourth, what's going on in the morning?" Tell my brother about ......"

The official known as the fourth official was full of embarrassment, showing some entanglement, looked around, and then said in a low voice: "Big brother, you just need to know this matter, but don't spread it out, we can't afford to provoke it." ”

"Don't worry, fourth, don't you know who your eldest brother and I are? The mouth is very strict, even if you pry with a knife, you can't pry your eldest brother's mouth. The man patted his chest confidently in reassurance.

The corners of the officer's mouth twitched slightly, wanting to laugh, but he couldn't.

"Some time ago, there was a son-in-law who asked the Ming Mansion for help, but the Ming Mansion didn't agree, but the son-in-law suffered a loss, don't you go back to move Lao Tzu......

"What boy? So big? Even the Ming Mansion dares to fight? After beating the Ming Mansion, you still have to accompany the smiling face? The man was stunned, but soon stopped thinking about this issue, people put on such a big battle, can it be an ordinary person?

"The secretary of the criminal department, the cabinet boss, the red man in front of the emperor. I happened to be patrolling nearby today, so I wanted to come to find trouble with the Ming Mansion, but I couldn't find any trouble, so I could only let the Ming Mansion lose face. The official pretended to be helpless.

"So big? That's okay, big brother knows, we can't afford to mess with this person, forget about this matter, just know it yourself, fourth brother, go on duty, Mingfu will definitely be in a bad mood, don't be caught and trouble you. The man nodded in shock, and no longer pulled his fourth child, for fear of trouble.

The official left, and continued to patrol according to the normal patrol route.

What level of your eldest brother is, don't you know what level you have? He even dared to guarantee that within a quarter of an hour of his departure, he would spread the news all over the city.

The eldest brother is a good big brother, he is also a good person, and he is very good at taking care of people, but this mouth is very indebted, and he can't hide any news.

"Hey, I'll tell you......"

The corners of the officer's mouth twitched violently, he really knew his eldest brother best, and what he said just now was so good, and he couldn't be provoked by guarantees.

As a result, he hasn't left his sight yet, so he went to show off to others.

In less than half an hour, the whole story spread throughout Sanyuan County.

Because the source of the news is internal, it is reliable, highly credible, and spreads quickly.

……

"A Shangshu would be so bored that he came here to beat people?" In the corner of the teahouse, the two were sitting there drinking tea, talking about business on the surface, but whispering about other topics.

"Hmph, I was forced by the emperor's child, and I couldn't find us, so I naturally had to find a way to put out the fire." The other snorted coldly.

"Don't be careless, I always feel that this is not normal, the Criminal Department is busy investigating the case now, how can Shangshu have the leisure time to come here?"

As soon as the other party said this, the other man also hurriedly put away his contempt, they had been preparing for a long time before, otherwise how could they come here?

"Let Lao Qi pay attention to himself, if the situation is not right, run quickly, if he is caught, Lao Qi should know what to do!"

The man nodded, the crime they committed was basically the same as rebellion, everyone knew how serious the consequences were, and once they were caught, there was only one result.

Carrying it to death may save the life of the family, but if it is a confession, it will be all over.

……

The news that Jingbo was cleaned up from above spread farther and farther, and by the afternoon, even the people outside the city knew about it, and the merchants who came and went had different opinions on it.

But no matter what, the business has to go on.

At night, the market is as lively as ever, and there are even more people than before.

Everyone didn't know where they heard the news, saying that there were people in the big market who handled a large number of Western Regions goods cheaply, and there were interested people and caravans.

As a result, the few remaining truckloads were sold out before the curfew.

But fortunately, it was too late in time, so they could only wait until it was over and follow the yamen back to the inn.

After the curfew, the city gate that had long been closed slowly opened, and a group of soldiers led the war horses into Sanyuan County lightly, and then waited in a dark place.

It didn't take much effort for a few servants to run towards the group of soldiers.

"Shangshu, it's all over there, they all went back to the inn, and the small one sent a few people to guard it." One of the officials didn't dare to slack off and reported directly.

"Lead the way!" Zhang Xingcheng waved his hand, and the soldiers were already ready, and quietly touched the inn.

Because it has entered the curfew, there is no need to worry about exposure.

Of course, the street inn can still open the window, but even if someone sees it, they don't dare to make a sound or take the lead.

However, before everyone could react, the Sanyuan Pavilion Inn was surrounded by water.

The door of the inn had already been opened inside, and dozens of forbidden soldiers entered in an orderly manner, holding ordinary horizontal knives, and under the leadership of Xiao Er, they came to the place where the group of traders lived.

The result of the capture was smooth, there was no resistance, no escape, and the entire caravan was swept away, and not a single one of them escaped the net.

Naturally, Zhang Xingcheng did not need to be personally responsible for some things, and after he was caught, the yawmen who came together scattered for interrogation.

"Shangshu, something is wrong!" The interrogator walked over with a black line on his face, and at the same time, Jing Bo also walked into the Sanyuan Pavilion Inn with a ticket.

"Say!" Zhang Xingcheng had a faint bad premonition in his heart.

"Many people say that they are casual laborers in Chang'an, and a few days ago, someone hired them to run a business at a high price, and they were paid five yuan a day, while only one person was in charge of the caravan, and the rest were all hired. The subordinates checked their identities, and for the time being, there was no problem. No gold was found on them. Yatou said in one breath.

"Bring the consul to ......"

"Shangshu, it's not good...... Before Zhang Xingcheng's words fell, a yatou hurriedly came, his face was very ugly, "The consul's one is dead......

"Dead?" Zhang Xingcheng's face was full of shock.

"He committed suicide by taking poison, and those people said that when they saw us breaking down the door, he stuffed something into his mouth."

"Bastard ......" Hearing the news, Zhang Xingcheng clenched his fists tightly and slammed it viciously on the table.

The caravan members were hired ordinary people, who must have known nothing about it, and could not find any useful clues, and the only consul was dead.

Although he was sure that there must be other people around, but when that person died, the clue was broken, and as long as they didn't expose themselves, there was no way to catch them.

It was not easy to find a new clue, but it turned out to be broken as soon as I arrived?

Zhang Xingcheng was full of unwillingness......

But if he is unwilling and there is no way, he can find someone, is it possible to prevent the other party from putting poison on his body? If he has the heart, that is, he takes it out of his body and stuffs it into his mouth, and it is just a breath, and it is impossible for him to stop it.

"What about identity?" Zhang Xingcheng, who was unwilling, could only pin his hopes on the identity of the other party, as long as the identity of the other party was found, this clue would not be completely broken.

"There is no identification, and the road guide is opened in the name of a merchant in the Western Regions, so it can't be found at all." Yatou shook his head.

In the past, it was necessary to have an official road guide for long-distance travel, but now, in order to facilitate trade, you only need to hold an official certificate, and the entire caravan can not carry a road guide, and the official road guide also indicates the number and size of the caravan.

There is no identification, there is nothing, and if you want to find out the true identity of this person, there is only one way left, portrait, and the whole country to find people.

As long as the portrait can be pasted in his state and county, it is always possible to recognize the other party when he informs the townships and villages to come and identify him.

But the price is too great, Zhang Xingcheng frowned tightly, he didn't expect that this case would be so difficult!

"Shangshu, there is a sentence in the lower official that I don't know whether to say or not!" Although he didn't speak, Jingbo also understood the ins and outs of the whole thing.

Zhang Xingcheng nodded, for this case, he is now countless big, clueless, and very irritable.

"Even if it's hired, how can there be only one person with it? Aren't they afraid that these men will swallow their goods on the way? Even if someone is secretly following, who would be so stupid? At least so far, of all the caravans to and from Sanyuan, Xia Guan has never seen a caravan with only one person or two people. ”

"You mean ......?" Zhang Xingcheng's eyes suddenly lit up!
