Beihai County is under the rule of Qingzhou, with 16 counties under its jurisdiction, with a registered population of 720,000. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The county guard is a senior officer with a rank of 2,000 stones, and is in charge of the military and political power of a county. According to the algorithm of later generations, the jurisdiction of a county is equivalent to the size of one-third of the province, and the county guard is equivalent to a combination of half a ******** plus the head of the local military district! When such a big official visited, Zhao Min was still a little weak-hearted. You must know that the biggest official he has ever seen in his previous life is just a deputy mayor in charge of construction.

Hearing that the county guard was visiting, Zhao Min quickly tidied up his clothes, half sat on the bed, and raised his hand to signal Shao Qi to invite Lu Xu in. In terms of identity, of course, Zhao Min, who is the prince, is more noble. But in terms of real power, Zhao Min's so-called King of the North Sea is just a fictitious title, and the food is only a county; On the other hand, Lu Xu is a feudal official, and he can be said to have a lot of power in Beihai County! Even which county Zhao Min's food is set in is determined by Taishou! Lu Xu's rights can be seen from this.

A moment later, the powerful man stepped into the room under the guidance of Shao Qi. After Lu Xu entered the door, he faced Zhao Min, put his left hand on his right hand, hid his hand in his sleeve, raised his hand to increase his forehead, bowed ninety degrees, bowed to him, and shouted: "Beihai County Guard Lu Xu See His Royal Highness the King of Beihai." ”

Taking advantage of Lu Xu's salute, Zhao Min peeked at the Earth Emperor Taishou. Lu Xu, the county guard of Beihai County, is seven years old Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and he is in the prime of life. I saw that his body was not tall, about seven feet four inches, but his body was thin, his face was clear, and the three long strands of hair under his chin made him look like he was not angry and arrogant, and there seemed to be a surging spirit in his eyes.

"Lord Lu is polite! Forgiveness is ill and cannot be fully respected. Zhao Min owes himself a debt on the collapse, and tries to make himself appear weaker. Learning to speak from the ancients is definitely not a pleasant thing, but in front of such an important official, you still have to do your best to maintain it. "When Min Chu arrived in Beihai, he should have gone to visit Lord Lu a long time ago. Unexpectedly, the first time I saw it, it was like this...... I also look at Lord Lu Haihan! ”

"What did Your Highness say!" Lu Xu smiled and thanked Shao Qi who showed him a seat. "The king of Beihai is a noble son of heaven, and he should have been visited by an official, how can there be a reason for His Highness to come to visit."

"I heard that His Highness had an accident, and the lower official was frightened, so he invited the best doctor in the city, and personally burned incense and prayed for His Highness in the back house" Lu Xu moved his body forward, and his face showed a palpitating expression. "Fortunately, the auspicious people have their own natural appearance, His Royal Highness was able to turn evil into good fortune, and the officials couldn't help but be happy when they heard it, and they couldn't wait to visit His Highness early in the morning, and when they saw that His Highness was safe, they couldn't help crying with joy!" As he spoke, he seemed to have tears in his eyes!

After all, Zhao Min worked hard in the business world for many years in his previous life, and this kind of official article has long been accustomed to it. The rules in officialdom, no matter what you really think in your heart, at least show gratitude on the face. However, I faintly felt a little strange in my heart, and I didn't know what was wrong for a while, so I had to put my doubts aside for the time being: "Thank you Lord Lu for your love, Min is grateful!" This time, I was fortunate to be invited, thanks to Lord Lu's help from famous doctors and burning incense and praying for blessings, like the grace of reconstruction, and Min will never dare to forget each other! ”

Lu Xu hurriedly gave up his hand and didn't even dare to say it.

Shao Qi served Lu Xu fragrant tea, and the two then chatted casually about the personnel of the court and the terroir of Beihai; Because Zhao Min was injured and it was inconvenient to drink tea, he could only sit and talk with him. At this time, Zhao Min noticed that Shao Qi's expression on the side was a little strange, and he was attentive. After a few more polite words, Lu Xu excused Zhao Min to have a good rest, so he got up and said goodbye, and Zhao Min asked Shao Qi to send him out of the door on his behalf. Waiting for Shao Qi to return, let him sit on the edge of the collapse and talk with him.

"Ah Fu, I see that you have a different color on your face, but what do you think is wrong?"

"Fourth Master,...... Ah Fu just had some doubts in his heart," Shao Qi showed a somewhat hesitant expression.

"Ah Fu, although you and I are masters and servants, we are like brothers, what do you have to say, will you be blamed?"

"Whoa!" Shao Qi hesitated slightly, but finally made up his mind: "The fourth master should know that Ah Fu's nose has been a little different from ordinary people since he was a child, and he is extremely sensitive to smells, but he has a special smell, and he will not forget it easily." ”

"After the accident of the fourth master, Ah Fu was sad and sad, but he always felt a little weird; The fourth master is not good at reading, but Yu is interested in hunting and shooting, and Ah Fu knows it well. Speaking of this, Shao Qi showed a hint of embarrassment: "Since the fourth master is skilled in bowing horses, how could he fall off his horse while riding?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Min had an ominous premonition in his heart, and raised his hand to signal Shao Qi to continue.

"I had doubts in my heart, so I thought that there might be something wrong with the horse ridden by the fourth master, so I decided to go to the stable to investigate." Shao Qi paused, peeked at Zhao Min's face before continuing: "Who would have thought that there was nothing wrong with the horse ridden by the fourth master, but there was something wrong with the saddle!" ”

The saddle of this era is not actually the saddle that modern people are familiar with, to be precise, it can only be called a horseback cushion, in fact, it is a thickened cowhide cushion, its function is only to prevent slip on the horse's back, increase friction, and cannot play a fixed role. As for the stirrup, it is only unilateral, and it is used to borrow force when getting on the horse; As for riding horses, people often have to withdraw their feet from the stirrups, because putting them in the stirrups will affect their balance, and the connection between the rider and the horse depends on this mat and the strength of the legs.

"When I went to see the horse, the saddle was no longer on the horse's back, and I inquired about the men of the stable, and finally found the saddle in the corner of the stable. At this glance, you can see the problem! ”

Shao Qi swallowed his saliva, and then said: "This saddle has been broken from the lacing, I have looked at it carefully, and the fracture is very smooth, as if there are traces of a knife......

Zhao Min didn't interject, he only felt that this thick feeling of pit daddy was getting stronger and stronger.

"On that saddle I smelled a strange aroma, like some kind of sandalwood. I didn't care until I ...... Just when the county keeper was serving tea...... It seems that there is also this taste!! After speaking, Shao Qi looked at Zhao Min's face with some concern. Therefore, Ah Fu just wondered in his heart, this matter ...... Maybe it has something to do with the county keeper? ”

Perhaps thinking that this idea was a bit nonsense, Shao Qi hurriedly added: "Ah Fu is just a guess, and there is no real evidence, maybe it's just a coincidence?" ”

"Hello sister!" Zhao Min burst into tears in his heart, this pit father's premonition really came true!! Now he finally understood what was wrong with what he felt just now - as the guard of a county, in the face of such an unpowerful prince, Lu Xu was too enthusiastic! "This old boy came to see my brother early in the morning, called a visit, but in fact, he realized that the poisonous plan was not completed, and he did not harm his brother, so he came to find out the truth! This is all the usual episodes of vulgar TV dramas, okay! ”

Zhao Min had an understanding in his heart, but he pretended to be indifferent on his face, only nodded his head and agreed with Shao Qi's statement, but repeatedly told him not to make a public statement.

Sent Shao Qi away, lying quietly alone, Zhao Min suddenly remembered one thing, the identification system did not give any information when he saw Lu Xu just now! Zhao Min had contact with a lot of people earlier, including doctors, maids, etc., among which only Shao Qi and Wei Ying's attributes could be displayed, Zhao Min didn't care about it at that time, thinking that ordinary idlers, etc., or the attributes were not worth mentioning, or the identity was only passers-by, so the system automatically filtered it. But this Lu Xu is the keeper of a county, not to mention his identity, he is respectful, and his attributes alone are not too unbearable, so why won't he show it?

Comparing Shao Qi and Wei Ying, Zhao Min had a guess in his heart: maybe the system can only provide the data of the characters under his command, and it will not be displayed if it is not his own camp or the attribute is too low. I just don't know if this own camp is only counted by my own subordinates? Or can allies also be shown? It seems that this question will have to be explored slowly in the future.

As for Lu Xu, since he has suspicions, he will naturally pay more attention, after all, the three-day survival task of the system mission is still faintly glowing with golden light. Zhao Min originally thought that as long as his body regained his vitality, he would be able to escape, but now the mission is still in progress, coupled with Lu Xu's matter, it seems that this task is not just as simple as physical recovery!

Once you pay attention to some things, it is easy to find some clues. Since the day Lu Xu left, Zhao Min has been paying attention to the diet and decoction sent to him, because he doesn't go out of the door, if he really wants to be unfavorable to himself, he can only do his hands and feet in the food. Sure enough, a problem was found in the decoction sent on the evening of the second day.

Zhao Min looked at the medicinal soup in front of him thoughtfully. The identification system clearly reveals the properties of the medicinal soup: 'a bowl of poisonous medicine'. Zhao Min realized that he had discovered a new way to apply the identification system. Originally, every time Zhao Min sent food during this time, he asked Shao Qi to take a small amount and take it to the livestock to try, and only after confirming that it was non-toxic did he dare to drink it. But just by placing this bowl in front of you, you can clearly see the attributes.

"In the past, whether it was food or medicine, there were no prompts like 'delicious food' or 'cool medicine', so it seems that if it is a substance, it must have had a significant impact on me before it can be recognized by the system. It seems that at least I don't have to worry about being poisoned in the future, no matter how secret the poison is in front of me, I can see it at a glance, hehe! Zhao Min touched his smooth chin, and his frustrated mood because of Lu Xu's matter became a little happy again.
