At noon, Meng Yi said goodbye to the invitation of Fusu, and immediately returned to his house, in addition to the position of Shangqing, Meng Yi also has an official position, that is, the position of court lieutenant, in charge of criminal law. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this moment, the guard was still surrounded by several soldiers, and he didn't dare to make any movement at all, and Meng Yi, who had changed into his regular clothes, did not delay, and immediately came to the courtyard to see the guard.

It is said that Meng Yi and Zhao Gao do not have a deep hatred, but Meng Yi looks down on this kind of villain who relies on sycophancy to ascend to the throne, without any real talent and hard work, but he is in a high position.

"Take us there." Meng Yi said in a slightly relaxed tone, then waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to stand back, and the guards hurriedly stood up.

"Thank you for your innocence." The guard also said cautiously, the horses outside had been prepared, and Meng Yi and a few people under him quickly came to the barren mountain outside Xianyang City.

Outside Xianyang City is also a little desolate, almost half of the trees that built the palace were transported from a radius of more than 50 miles outside the Xianyang Capital, so the surrounding area is a bit dilapidated.

"But around here?" Meng Yi pointed to the hill in front of him and asked, there were no big trees on it, there were some low bushes and some weeds, because it was already the end of autumn, it was even more desolate.

The guard looked at it and nodded affirmatively, "It should be here, the dead tree last night is obvious." The guard said as he pointed to the taller, dead tree on the hill.

Meng Yi dismounted and looked at the place pointed by the guard, and sure enough, there was a conspicuous dead tree standing there, and Meng Yi immediately commanded his subordinates to check the hill in front of him.

Several soldiers immediately rushed to the hill in front of them, and after searching for half an hour, they found something strange on the hill, and the soil in the middle of the place had been renovated.

"My lord, there's something really strange there." A soldier ran over and hurriedly prayed.

Meng Yi nodded, and then followed the soldier to the middle of the hill, and after careful observation, it was all fresh soil, "Pick it up and take a look." Meng Yi pointed to the place and said.

The soldiers did not dare to delay at all, and immediately dug with the bronze sword at their waists, and in just a moment, they dug up the bloodstained clothes.

"Sure enough, it's not that simple, let me continue." Meng Yi looked at the bloodstained clothes and said.

Turning over the weedy soil, the corpse gradually appeared, because it was the late autumn season, so the corpse did not show any signs of decay, except for some stiffness and whiteness, everything was normal.

"My lord, what should I do next?" The soldier said with some trepidation.

"Search carefully, find evidence, and then ask the department to carry the body back, and the court will have a way to dispose of it, you don't have to worry." Meng Yi said with a little reassurance.

The soldiers were a little embarrassed, but they had to search the corpse in front of them, and sure enough, they found a house card under the regular clothes, wiped the dirt on it, and handed it directly to Meng Yi.

Meng Yi took the house card and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "I'll go back first, you guys wait here first, and I'll go to the capital to find someone to bring the body back." Meng Yi said and walked down the hill.

At this time, Zhao Gao was still in the Wangyi Palace, teaching Hu Hai calligraphy, and he didn't know that Meng Yi had shaken out all the things about the corpse.

Meng Yi came directly to the Tingwei Division with the mansion card, and then explained his intention to the department, so he ordered two teams of people, one team went to the hill to bring the body back, and the other team went to Zhao Gao's mansion with Meng Yi to get people.

Who made Meng Yi the person who made the court lieutenant, he has always enforced the law strictly, especially those who dislike him, and he is even more observant, and it is impossible to do something wrong and want to escape.

Zhao Gao's mansion was not very far from the Tingwei Division, and more than a dozen people soon came to Zhao Gao's mansion, "My lord, do you want to go in and arrest people directly?" The chief court lieutenant said.

Meng Yi waved his hand, "Go in directly and take someone on the spot." After that, Meng Yi first walked towards the mansion, and the guards in the mansion naturally didn't dare to stop him when they saw that it was the court captain, so they had to let Meng Yi lead the court captain to go in and get people.

Zhao Gao's mansion is not too broad, it is still much smaller than Li Si's mansion, "My lord, Zhao Fuling is still lecturing for Hu Haigongzi, and he won't be able to come back for a while." The court lieutenant said slowly.

Meng Yi looked around carefully, "His home is here, I'm not afraid that he won't come back, just wait here." Meng Yi said very calmly, it seems that Zhao Gao can't escape from his palm today.

Several court lieutenants didn't dare to say anything, so they had to wait in Zhao Gao's mansion according to Meng Yi's orders, the Qin Dynasty had a law, and the court lieutenants didn't need to tell people, so Meng Yi dared to do this.

But after a while, Zhao Gao came out of the Wangyi Palace and went straight back to his mansion, and now he didn't know that his mansion gate had been surrounded by court lieutenants.

Zhao Gao bypassed the east gate of Xianyang, and soon came to the gate of his mansion, and immediately found that the gatekeeper was not his subordinates, but the people of the Tingwei Division, and he knew that something was wrong.

"Is it exposed? It can't be, it must be something else because I acted so secretively last night, and it doesn't hurt to wait for me to go in and ask about it. Zhao Gao said secretly in his heart, and walked towards the door of the mansion at the same time.

When the people of the Tingwei Division saw Zhao Gao coming back, they immediately told Meng Yi, Meng Yi waved his hand, and several attendants immediately came out of Zhao Gao's mansion, and immediately surrounded Zhao Gao in the middle.

"Meng Shangqing, what are you?" Zhao Gao said with some doubts, he didn't think about the maid at all, so he wasn't very panicked in his heart.

"What am I doing here, right?" Meng Yi said with a sneer, and took out the house card from the maid from his sleeve.

"What's the matter, you can do it yourself." Meng Yi said and threw the house card to Zhao Gao, Zhao Gao hurriedly caught it, and when he saw the handwriting on it, he panicked instantly, and it was his own handwriting.

From this point of view, it must have been revealed yesterday's incident, and Zhao Gao had no choice, just standing in place with a pale face.

Meng Yi didn't talk nonsense with him either, "Zhao Fuling is offended, take it away!" Meng Yi waved his hand, and the people next to him were about to catch Zhao Gao, who knew that Zhao Gao would run to his mansion with his legs.

"Meng Shangqing treats me to change into regular clothes, I follow the cheapness, and I don't want to insult the clothes given by the king." Zhao Gao shouted at Meng Yi behind him at the same time.

Meng Yi knew that Zhao Gao couldn't run away, so he changed his clothes with him, "A few of you are waiting outside the mansion, and after a quarter of an hour, you will go to get people, and the other few will go to the back door to guard." Meng Yi commanded outside the mansion gate.

Several people were ordered, and they also acted separately, and at this time, Zhao Gao immediately ran towards the study, he didn't expect that this kind of thing would make Meng Yi catch the handle, it was really eight lifetimes of blood mold.
