Chu Nan got down from his horse, looked at the appearance of Cheng Zhukang of Wangchuan County in front of him, and didn't know what he was thinking, and his face gradually flashed with unhappiness. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"This is His Majesty's seal, please take a look."

Zhu Kang didn't come back to his senses and subconsciously took it, and he didn't feel something wrong until the cold seal was in his hand, didn't he obviously distrust this county guard? This Shangguan, this is a big taboo in officialdom, and Zhu Kang's heart is full of regret at this time.

In a panic, he hurriedly glanced at the seal and dared to take a closer look, and then handed it to Chu Nan's hand, each seal was unique, and he didn't know why he made such a low-level mistake today.

Zhu Kang was a lot flustered in his heart.

"It's clear this time."

"Clear." He touched the cold sweat on his forehead and said respectfully.

Chu Nan seemed to want to tease this county man, "My lord doesn't want to see what kind of content is written on the bamboo slip of this carriage." ”

"Of course, oh no, no, no......." Zhu Kang reacted and looked at Chu Nan and said, "How dare you look at the things of the adults, the lowly positions have already prepared wine and food in the county office, and I also ask the adults to move." ”

"No need." Chu Nan waved his hand, "I heard that this place is not too far from the Ludong Post House, so I want to go there and have a look." ”

Hearing that the officials of Wangchuan County on the official road here were all sinking in their hearts, the Ludong Post House was actually in the territory of Wangchuan County, and the former county guard Yang Qingzhi, who had not yet arrived, was killed here.

"Well, then I will take the adults with me." Zhu Kang said with a smile.

After the unification of the Qin State, the county system gradually spread all over the world, and the total number of counties is divided into 36 counties, the population of each county can reach one million, and the population of the east county is about 900,000, which can be said to be a large county, and there are more than 20 counties under the east county, and Wangchuan County is the largest county among the more than 20 counties in the east county, with more than 10,000 households in the county.

Li Dong was sleeping on the bed, because of the death of the former county guard Yang Qingzhi, he had not rested for a long time, but the knocking on the door outside the house became louder and louder, and even a lot of dust fell on the eaves, and finally he couldn't help it anymore.

Li Dong got up with a black face, anyone who was woken up at this time would not give a good face, he scolded in his mouth and went to open the door.

"It's a ...... that doesn't have long eyes."

Before he could speak, he looked at the two Wangchuan County officials in front of him who were dressed in government uniforms, and swallowed the words back fiercely.

"Yo...... It turned out to be a colleague of the county government, how could there be something? I remember I wished I hadn't done anything. ”

Li Dong is a servant of Wangchuan County, and he is also familiar with the people in the county government.

"Come with us."

"What's the matter?"

"A good thing? Go and meet the new county guard. An official said impatiently.

Li Dong blurted out, "County guard." ”

"Don't shout." One of them looked around.

In fact, he is not to blame, the biggest official he has ever seen is the previous deputy general of the Qin army in Dongjun, Cao Rong, and the county guard is more like a legendary figure to him.

"On the way here, Lord Xiancheng specially instructed us to bring you a word."

"You say."

"Lord County, let me warn you, wait a while, and when you see Lord County, you can weigh what you should say and what you shouldn't say."

"Brother understands, brother understands."

Li Dong agreed with a grin.

Because the matter of the Ludong Post House has long been blocked here, and people from the county government come to guard it every day, so everything here remains the same as before, except for the corpses that were carried away, there is not much change.

Chu Nan looked at the ruins in front of him with a grim expression, thinking about Yang Qingzhi's killing, but looking at the appearance in front of him, even if he had learned the art of tracking in the Shadow Secret Guard before, but after all, so many days had passed, even he couldn't see many traces.

Zhao Qing walked straight past Chu Nan's side, walked into the distance, took a piece of wood that had been burned blackened, pulled down the ash on it and put it on the tip of his nose to sniff it fiercely, and then put it down and groped around for something?

"What do you see?" Chu Nan came to Zhao Qing's side.

Zhao Qing smiled mysteriously, "It doesn't seem that the situation is so simple, at least not as the county said." ”

Chu Nan lowered his voice, "So you think those people in Wangchuan County are lying. ”

"It's not." Zhao Qing denied, "They can't see it yet, but you look at these sawdust." ”

Zhao Qing pinched a piece of sawdust in his hand, "Although these woods are burned black, you can't see anything, but they are different from ordinary wood, they are easier to be crushed, and I just looked at some wood incisions, which are smooth and neat, obviously cut by extremely sharp blades, or masters whose martial arts have reached the realm of sword qi release." ”

"My lord, I brought you the work of Wangchuan County." A messenger dressed in a servant uniform said flatteringly.

Li Dong still didn't understand how to get up and kneel, "Wangchuan County is the servant Li Dong to meet the county guard." ”

"Get up and speak."

Chu Nan is most annoyed by this, and every place where he goes has all kinds of cumbersome etiquette.

"You examined the corpses of these soldiers."

"Lord Hui is indeed small." Li Dong said respectfully.

"Let's talk about the results!"

Li Dong turned around and glanced at Zhu Kang behind him, and Zhu Kang nodded unconsciously.

"Those soldiers were all killed by sharp arrows, and the cavalry commander was killed by a sneak attack from behind, except for the former county guard Yang Qingzhi, because the whole body was scorched, the cause of death could not be determined, and it was temporarily determined that he was burned to death by fire."

When Zhao Qing heard this, his eyes instantly brightened up a few points.

"You mean that the body of the former county guard was burned to charcoal, and the cause of death cannot be determined, so it is determined that it was burned to death."

"Yes, that's right." Li Dong looked at the person who was following the county guard and thought that it was another small person, and subconsciously replied.

"In that case, it's none of your business here!"

Li Dong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and it was really difficult to talk to these official people, but fortunately, nothing went wrong, he came to Zhu Kang's side and saw Zhu Kang showing a satisfied look, and then he felt that his back was already wet with cold sweat.

"What's wrong?" Chu Nan asked.

"If my guess is correct, the identity of this Yang County Shou is not simple, or he will be a master, but this needs to be personally examined to know."
