The case of the disappearance of the girl has caused a storm in the city, and Zhao Yuanxin, who is the prefect, has not closed his eyes for several days and nights. For the magistrates, if there are Jianghu sects under their jurisdiction, then they will not be so stable as court officials.

"Chivalry violates the ban with martial arts", these Jianghu people behave and do everything with the so-called justice of the rivers and lakes, whether you are the King of Heaven or the Jade Emperor, the rivers and lakes are in the rivers and lakes, no matter how big the official government is, it is also the court, and it can't control the heads of the people in the rivers and lakes!

The Bai family is the richest man in Hangzhou, not to mention the big business, Bai Letian's generation has made a name for himself in the rivers and lakes, and Zhao Yuanxin, the prefect, is becoming more and more worried, for fear that if he mishandles it, he will lose his official affairs and lose his head.

However, God seemed to be unable to get along with him, first there was a problem with the grain and grass sent to the north, and before he could figure out a clue, the girl's disappearance case made a stir again, and Baichuan Villa was involved. Lord Zhao sighed every day, only to feel that his hair would be completely white if he continued like this.

After placing Lou Weiyu in the Rejuvenation Hall and making sure that she was no longer in danger, Ning Qi had to leave temporarily. The so-called "birthday celebration" in Hangzhou this time is just a stop, and his real purpose is still in the matter of grain and grass.

Since the beginning of this year, there have been successive droughts in the north, not a drop of rain has fallen, countless people and cattle and sheep have starved to death on the Turkic steppe, and the reigning Khan King Tuguyu has coveted the scenery of the Celestial Empire for a long time, and since the beginning of winter, he has repeatedly committed burning, killing and looting. Although the imperial court wanted to send troops to meet the battle, the Turkic cavalry was well-trained, and they were often raided and left immediately, and when the imperial army arrived, the other party had already fled.

Above the imperial court, the Tiansheng Dynasty has been established for a long time, and the prosperous era of Chengping is too accustomed. Tu Guyu saw that the Celestial Empire had no intention of starting a war, so he intensified it, and led the elite cavalry to raid Shengzhou in Guannei in early winter, and the defenders of Shengzhou Mansion fought to the end, but they failed to prevent the barbarians' iron cavalry from stepping on the land of the Tiansheng Dynasty. Ningyuan's general Huai Zisheng and 5,000 defenders were all killed in battle, the prefect Hu Xuan was martyred, the people in the city were killed, the young and young men were taken captive, and the food and property in the city were plundered.

The report was submitted to the imperial case, Emperor Yan of the Qing Dynasty was immediately furious, and the Shengzhou Mansion was not far from Kyoto due to the north, not to mention that Fengzhou and Shengzhou are the two major barriers on the back of Kyoto. At this time, in winter, the Yellow River has already frozen, and this natural barrier does not play much role at this time.

Emperor Yan of the Qing Dynasty could not bear the evil deeds of the Turks, and let the ministers make suggestions on how to play the test, and they were determined to fight this battle. The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first, but when the grain and grass from Jiangnan Road arrived, I opened it and saw that it was straw, sand and gravel, and the grain and grass were gone! The war was imminent, and Emperor Yan of the Qing Dynasty did not make a public announcement in order to stabilize the morale of the army, but ordered Ning Qi to investigate secretly, so he made this trip to Hangzhou.

He had just come out of Baichuan Villa, and he had only learned about what had happened in the past few days from Liang Jing and Song Yi, and then recalled the various intentions revealed by Bai Lotian when he talked to him, a pair of eagle-like sharp eyes flashed a few hints of interest, and things were really getting more and more interesting.

For Zhao Yuanxin, who is the person you don't want to see now?

Looking at the cold man who appeared in front of him at some point, Lord Zhao sighed a few times in his heart, and really felt that he might not be able to save his head.

"Your Highness! I don't know if His Highness is coming, and I hope His Highness will atone for his sins! Cold sweat leaked through layers, and Zhao Yuanxin replied with a calm salute.

Ning Qi stood with his hands in his hands, and did not ask about the grain and grass again, but directly instructed: "The first thing is to find out which Jianghu sects Bai Lotian has been involved with in the past five years, especially in the north; The second thing is to check the details of Bai Ruoxi and Bai Ruohong; The third thing is to find out who Bai Ruoshui often comes into contact with. If you can't do it again, you don't have to be the prefect! "This matter is a matter of the imperial court, he does not intend to involve the Seven Star Pavilion, once it is related to the imperial court, it will be difficult to break it again.

"Yes, yes, the lower officials obey the orders, does Your Highness have any other orders?" Zhao Yuanxin hurriedly responded, but no one answered after a long time, so he looked up cautiously, but there was no figure in front of the meeting?

In the south of Hangzhou, a few complaints came from a secluded alley.

Song Yi shook his fan and looked at the dilapidated courtyard below with disgust, "I didn't expect that the hall master of my dignified Seven Star Pavilion would actually come to such a place to inquire about the news, it's really a tyrannical thing!" It's a pity that my Song Yi is a graceful jade tree in the wind! ”

Liang Jing glanced at him, knowing his temperament and didn't say much, but said: "The pavilion master has always done things in a measured manner, since he let us come here, it must be reasonable, you can watch it with peace of mind, don't make a mistake." ”

Song Yi glared at him: "Who is my eldest son Song?" Is there a task I can't accomplish? ”

Liang Jing shook his head amusedly, stopped talking, and just looked at the small courtyard below vigilantly.

Very ordinary and dilapidated small courtyard, the yard is not big, there are a lot of people living in it, about a dozen, all of them are dressed in coarse cloth and short beats, some are still working with work in their hands, if they don't pay attention, they will only be poor long-term workers and short-term workers who rent a house to live in. But if you look closely for a long time, you will find that these people have a thick and long breath, their eyes always sweep around inadvertently, their positions seem to be scattered, but each person's blind spot will inevitably be in the sight of another person, and the cooperation is seamless, and no one wants to escape their sight.

Liang Jing and Song Yi had to wait patiently, until the sun was setting, and a few more people entered the courtyard, they greeted the original few people in the courtyard warmly, looking like familiar neighbors, Liang Jing and Song Yi glanced at each other, the opportunity came! While they were talking and changing shifts, the two flashed into the kitchen of the small courtyard.

The outside was heavily guarded, but the house was unguarded.

"The people in this arrangement are really suspicious, but it gives us convenience." Song Yi said to Liang Jing silently, turning around, and finally stopped in the most inconspicuous corner and beckoned to Liang Jing.

Liang Jing understood and immediately followed.

After a while, the guards in the small courtyard still dutifully guarded the courtyard, carefully not letting anyone approach, and in the corner of the kitchen, the ground that had been lifted up had been restored to its original state, and no one could see any trace of being moved, and there was no flaw.
