When I hurried back to Qi Bai and Wan Niang's house, wearing the shirt that looked like a beggar's disciple hanging from the jungle branches, I saw that the fire under the house had been extinguished. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The old man Qi Bai who fell to the ground was bleeding from the scars on his chest, and Wan Niang had long since lost her breath, and there was a mess and a sign of decay in the courtyard wall.

I hurriedly helped Qi Bai up, he saw me coming back, there was a lot of meaning in his eyes, as if he was worried about my safety, and as if there were other reasons, I held him in my arms, bowed my head to his ear to hear what he said,

But he just opened his lips, as if trying to catch his last breath, and only grabbed my hand and tightened it slightly, and then he was speechless.

I gently closed his eyes with my hand, placed his body on the ground, and then went to the back room to take a closer look at Cao Qin's body, as if the assassins were just trying to kill everyone here.

I didn't seem to react to the dead Cao Qin, so I put Cao Qin down and pulled open the clothes and belongings of the dead assassins, inspecting them one by one.

Just as I went around to the backyard to check what had been laid down on the horse fodder, I heard a noisy sound of horses' hooves, accompanied by the sound of a gong, and then dozens of officials and officials with torches dressed in soap robes surrounded the courtyard of the house, and rushed in with a loud shout.

As soon as they saw me, they surrounded me, and behind them, an official of the Molan Mansion dressed in the style of the civil official Liupinlu and the official and a group of officials dressed in costume also hurried over.

"Someone reported a death case here," the handsome middle-aged civil official in an official robe saw me surrounded, walked two steps again, looked up and down at my blood-stained and ragged clothes, and was suspicious,

He looked at me with the eyes of a suspect in a major murder case, and then said to the officials around him, "Detain this person pending trial." ”

The circle of officials around me next to me answered, and walked towards me together, I knew that this was not good, and suddenly remembered the jade pendant of the eldest princess given by Wang Jin, and hurriedly took it out and picked it up, "I am a secret investigator of Beiming, and I am definitely not a murderer, and I ask this adult to cooperate." ”

The officials next to them looked at each other suspiciously, and then looked at the middle-aged civil official, the civil official nodded, and a official in his left hand took the Qinglong Yanyue Guan Emperor Huang Yupei from my hand and handed it to the official,

He looked at it carefully, and then saw the "majestic and righteous Qixia" on the back, and after repeated confirmation, he waved his hand to let the surrounding officials get out of the way, and said, "You retreat and surround the scene, and order the servants to inspect the scene." After that, he handed over to me and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know the situation, can you ask the envoy to make it clear." ”

I thought in my heart that this should be to ask why I am here, and I think that this local official looks like a serious person, otherwise it would not be an ordinary Sannong courtyard to let a six-grade official personally come to check in the middle of the night, and I don't have any ill feelings towards him in my heart, so I elaborated on the situation before and after.

I just said that I came out to host an errand for the eldest father, and I had a letter from the official family to stay here to rest, but I didn't expect this incident to happen on the first night, and how I was attacked, how to get Uncle Qi Bai to stand up for each other, and how to come back to visit is like this.

After finishing speaking, I saw that the official was still thinking to himself, and it was inconvenient for me to interrupt, after all, in the territory of Beiming, the people who deal with homicide lawsuits are all full-time criminal officers who have been trained and researched by the law department.

Usually belongs to the Jiagu City Government directly under the management, and has the reputation of the Zhengliupin Mansion Law Academy, compared to me, it must be more professional and detailed in judging the case and handling this matter.

When the official pondered, his eyes seemed to fall into the gap between life and time, and the whole person had a clumsy and lovely sense of concentration, and after a while, he came back to his senses, and then he saluted me again, and said:

"In this case, can the envoy first go to the palace wing with the lower officials to rest for a while, and wait for the lower officials to play, and then listen to the will after asking about the situation? Xiaguan Jiagu City Mansion Ya Law Academy Judgment, Dongfu County Magistrate Shi Danting Feng, dare to ask how to call your history. ”

"What Master Shan said is reasonable." When I heard this, I should have verified the situation with the eldest princess, and I had to wait until I cleared up the suspicion before I could get out.

But in terms of his personal duties, it should indeed be so, so I didn't discuss it much, and only replied, "The last general is Prince Jing's account to supervise the formation and the sword left guard to pay Yannian." ”

"Oh, General Fu, disrespectful." He smiled slightly and arched his hand at me.

"You're welcome." I also returned the salute.

"The lower official still has to investigate the case here, why don't you send the general back to the palace to rest first," he looked my ragged clothes up and down, and also felt that I was tired and embarrassed, so he asked understandingly.

I wanted to say that I was not in a hurry, I stayed to see the investigation of the case, but I thought that I was still a suspect, and it seemed too unsuspecting to deliberately stay, and I thought that I had already roughly seen the situation.

After thinking about it, it is better to be good, and then said, "Dare not obey your fate, but the last general also urgently needs to repair the book to the eldest princess to explain the situation here, I don't know if it is possible?" ”。

The single pavilion wind floated a meaningful look, then stroked his beard, waved his robe sleeves and said, "General Fu's errand that needs to be returned naturally should be returned, how dare the lower officials disobey?" ”

Then he shouted to the team of officials behind him, "Qu Tong,"

A jade-faced yacha in his twenties was ordered to come.

Shan Tingfeng said to him, "This is General Fu, you will lead the general back in a while, so that you can settle down, the general needs to deliver the letter to the order, and you have cooperated with it,"

After speaking, he looked at me with a smile, pretended to be strange, bowed down diligently, stretched out his hand to the side of the door, and said loudly, "General Fu, please"

I had to clench my fists and say goodbye.

When I saw Qi Bai and Wan Niang's body, it was not good to look at that class more.

With the Yacha who called Qu Tong on the horse, around thirty or twenty miles, he arrived at the Yamen of Jiagu City in Dongfu County, the door was soap-colored inside and outside, and there were two slightly smaller stone lions at the gate railing.

Entering from the gate, there is the main hall, the back hall, the left and right row six rooms, the front is erected according to the rules of Beiming and the ring stone tablet, the ring stone inscription is engraved on it, as the official rules. I looked closely, and the front was the same sixteen characters as the Taizu admonition in the new cross-border stone pavilion:

"Erfang Erlu, the people are fat and the people are ointment, the people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive", but Xinyue is based on the inscription written by Yan Yuanyuan, the descendant of Yan Zhenqing, a master of ancient calligraphy, and Beiming is written by Huang Gongling, a calligrapher of the Beiming Dynasty.

Turning the back of this bluestone ring stele, I saw a few lines of small characters in italics, which read:

"Lonely thoughts, food and clothes. Entrusted to the commander, raise An Sui. The government is in the three differences, and the Tao is in the seven silks. Driving chickens is the reason, and keeping calves is the rule. Lenient and fierce, customs can be moved. No erosion, no sores. The people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive.

Public opinion is cut, and militarism is capital. The reward of the lonely lord is not overdue. Erlu Erlu, the people anoint the people's fat. Being a parent is unkind. Especially for the precepts, the body is lonely and thoughtful. ”

Entering the back hall from the gate, the face is a high wall of blue and gray cover shadow wall, from the curved corridor with the yacha slowly into the guest hall, you can see that in the small garden outside the hall, a pear tree, a pond, a vegetable bed, a row of green bamboo, and the rest of the mixed flowers and fruits are luxuriant.

"General Fu, please-" Brought to the door of the guest hall, Qu Tong first pushed open the door of a room, beckoned me and said, "The general will rest for a while, the small one will send someone to arrange clean clothes and bathing things, pen and ink and other things are available in the room, what else does the general need, call the small one to go." ”

I grew up in the army, and I was not an eventful person, and I still had a lot of things to think about at this time. ”

"Yes, the small one will do it, General Fu will do it later" Qu Tong is also in the style of Beiming, and he simply responded and hurried away.

I entered the room, and saw that there were three pineapple wood tables inside, and four pear wood chairs of the same style with eight treasure feet, with the table and chairs draped, there were new pen and official paper, ordinary ink inkstone, candlesticks and oil lamps There were also a few

One by one, one more room, is the bedroom, although there is no hanging painting decoration, but it is also a bright and clean window, spotless, there is a kind of empty feeling of loneliness.

I began to write in a hurry. The letter to the eldest princess explained the attack tonight, and also said that the government here should "take care", and I am afraid that it may be inconvenient to deal with Fu Shao's errand for a while, so I ask the eldest princess to take care of it on her behalf.

In addition, an official secret letter and a family letter to Fu Shao were attached, and the eldest princess was asked to forward it on her behalf.

After thinking about it carefully, he recalled in his mind that Fu Shao's letters were usually forwarded by Xing Qiuyan first, and the secret letters were directly transferred to Fu Shao.

I thought about it and thought about it, it was better to beat Xing Qiuyan, and it might not be necessary to let Fu Shao know, so I wrote down the story of this matter, and after I looked at it carefully, I found that those killers did seem to be the widows who came to kill the mouth because the eldest princess released the wind.

But that Cao Qin did not die at the hands of the Japanese people, but was pierced into the poison needle at the top of the heavenly spirit, as for the style of this poisonous needle, it was used by Xinyue spies, not for outsiders.

After thinking about it repeatedly, I found that this time forward, except for the eldest princess and Fu Shao herself, only the confidential people around the prime minister's mother could know my whereabouts.

And next to Qi Bai and Wan Niang's secret spy courtyard, there is a county workshop of Xing's salt industry, and it is very convenient to arrange eyeliner.

Of course, for the sake of intimacy, although I will use the unique method of sealing the letter of Xinyue secret spy, so that after Xing Qiuyan gets the letter, she will know that this letter is not for Fu Shao, but for her to see, but I can't guarantee whether she will seal it and present it to Fu Shao after reading it, so it is important to pay attention to the boundary between words.

So I said, please Uncle Fu to ask Master Xing's mother to pay attention to whether there are any Xinyue spies in the personal girls or official families around her, and use the hands and forces of Master Xing's mother to do spy things.

In addition, I also made a special beat, the eldest princess knows a lot about the affairs in Pengcheng, and even the private reasons why I pawned the armor in exchange for money to buy a house are also in the princess's hands, so I hope that Uncle Fu will remind the master of Xing to strictly control it, and don't expect to do anything spy under the nose of the eldest princess.

Moreover, once the eldest princess suspects Uncle Fu in her actions, it will be quite unfavorable to the national society and the joint defense of the two countries, and it is easy for Uncle Fu to cause death.

And afterwards, he asked Shao and his family for warmth, saying that they were all a family, so they would be thoughtful about the cause of Cao Qin's death, so as not to immediately make Xing's mother and the people around her suspicious, but I also hope that the mother's mother will understand this heart.

After writing the letter, but in a moment, Qu Tong sent someone to bring a bath bucket and a change of clothes, as well as a dry letter of the necessary items, I sent him out, first bathed and changed clothes, then sealed several letters in different ways, and then wrapped a thick bag on a place and handed it to Qu Tong outside the door,

Told him that it was a confidential matter of the eldest princess, and asked him to help expedite the report, so as not to delay the matter, I handed over a gold leaf on the thick bag, Qu Tong saw this, and looked around with frightened eyes, and was sure that there was no one around, so he took things tremblingly as if he had been tempted by the devil, and said to me:

"Don't worry, the general has instructed, no one dares to delay the general's affairs, the small ones will be arranged, and the general will rest first. But the lord instructed the general not to leave here. ”

I laughed. The nod should be.

When Qu Tong brought back the reply letter a few days later, it was full of a large bag.

I hurriedly thanked me and opened it, but it was Fu Shao who brought me many letterheads from Qin Qing, Huang Chun, and Prince Ning.

I first opened a few of Qin Qing's letterheads and looked at them, and after a while, I was immersed in the war between Nanyang and Lingdingyang:

Qin Qing described the many battles they experienced, saying that Prince Jing designed a new style of armor in order to improve the stabbing and made the most warlike warriors on his side grind all kinds of assassination actions and weapons one by one.

Then, it was determined that the long knife and the wolf sword were the best weapons in the assassination of horses and the assassination of infantry.

It also decomposes various actions such as stabbing, blocking, slashing, etc., and continuously improves the most standard and effective movements with actual combat, and promotes training.

In addition, it is said that Prince Jing built the island defense office on Xiami Island, combined with the topography and climatic characteristics of the island, and chose a newly designed polygonal fortress for defense, which has a better defense and enemy control effect than the old fortification in the past in many battles with Luo Wei.

Several more describe two large-scale attempts to lure the Rak to land and then set up an ambush on the island.

Although Qin Qing is not a literati and ink writer who does amazing words, but because of the simplicity of his words, he is particularly exciting everywhere, and after reading it, I really felt a sense of grandeur and fierceness in my heart.

The kind of unpretentious moving because of the lack of decoration, in my opinion, is a peak artistic experience, with emotion, the details are meticulous, and it is fascinating.

After reading it, I couldn't help but walk around excitedly, and drank several cups of tea in a row before I settled down. took out the full moon scimitar, gently opened Huang Chun's secret letter wax pill, carefully took out Huang Chun's secret letter from it, and read it.
