There are more than 1,300 households and more than 6,000 people in Dongweaving City, which is not a big city.

After finding an inn and settling down, it was getting late, and there was nothing to say all night.

Early the next morning, He Ran ordered everyone to go separately to check and see what they could ask, and he took Mingqin tea and Yunye to wander towards East Street.

After seeing the silk village opened by the rich merchant mentioned in the case file, he walked into the small tea shop next to it.

The shopkeeper was very happy that someone had come to visit so early, and he came to serve diligently, and after asking for some refreshments, He Ran frowned and asked, "Is Bai Dabai Er really dead?" ”

The shopkeeper immediately showed a look of vigilance, looked at him and said, "The guest officer is very angry, not a local." ”

He Ran replied: "The one from Xizhicheng has some old friendship with the Bai family brothers, hehe, he owes me two taels of silver." ”

The shopkeeper let out a soft "oh" and said, "I only know that they have been arrested, and it is said that they have been sentenced to beheading, and I am afraid that the guest officer's money will not be recovered." ”

He Ran was puzzled: "I think these two brothers are not bad, why did they make a fuss." ”

The shopkeeper smiled noncommittally and said, "The incident happened in the courtyard, we don't know the details, let's use tea for the guest officer." ”

Next, He Ran tried a few more times, but the shopkeeper's words flickered and he refused to say more, but a pair of eyes looked at Mingqin Chaduo's face,

Out of the teahouse, He Ran walked into a small pharmacy across the street, bought two sets of tonic medicine, and asked the guy again about the Bai brothers.

The guy also showed a look of vigilance, and said in a low voice: "The official family has already warned us people in the vicinity, don't talk nonsense about this matter, the son should inquire less, so as not to get into trouble, the blacksmith Hu next to him has been arrested because he said a few more words a few days ago." ”

He Ran knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he pretended to be surprised and stopped talking.

At this moment, two strong men walked in and said to the guy, "It's time to collect this month's peace money." ”

The guy took out a red paper bag and handed it over, and said with a smile: "I have been preparing for a long time, the two masters have worked hard." ”

A strong man took the paper bag and opened it to look at it, and said arrogantly: "Thank you for us." As he spoke, he squinted at He Ran and the three of them, and when he saw the peerless face of Mingqin Chaduo, his eyes couldn't help but light up, revealing a greedy look, and asked, "Where are you three from?" ”

He Ran replied: "Xizhicheng, do you have to be interrogated to buy some medicine?" ”

The strong man glared and said, "What kind of medicine did Xizhicheng buy from our Dongzhicheng, don't you have a pharmacy there?" ”

He Ran said unhurriedly: "Yes, yes, but which royal law stipulates that if there is a pharmacy in West Weaving City, we can't come to East Weaving City to buy medicine, who are you?" ”

The strong man put the paper bag in his hand into his arms, pulled down his sleeves and said, "Who are we, I'll tell you......"

Without waiting for him to continue, the strong man next to him pulled him and said, "Let's go, let's go, don't delay here, it's important to collect money." ”

The strong man glared at He Ran, and then stared at Mingqin Chaduo's face fiercely, and then went off arrogantly,

He Ran asked the guy, "Who are they, and what kind of money is this Taiping money paid?" ”

The guy sighed and said: "They used to be the servants of the government, didn't the previous paragraph let the officials and officials be streamlined, these people were dismissed, alas, it's not me who likes to complain, everyone knows that the above is for the good of the people, and the officials will spend less money, and the people can pay less taxes, but when they get to the bottom, they will change their taste, these people are obviously withdrawn, but the government called them to form a security team on the grounds of insufficient manpower, although they are not officials, but what they do is still the same thing as before, It's just that Yulu was not issued by the government but was asked for by himself, so it was more affordable than before. ”

He Ran frowned slightly, and said, "Isn't there a patrol department, and no one is going to sue." ”

The guy snorted and said: "If the inspection department really wants to take care of the people's complaints, the yamen of the inspection department of the five cities of Zhongzhou is in the city, how can they not know about such a big matter." Speaking of this, he felt that his words were a bit too much, and stopped the conversation and said, "Actually, this new deal has benefited us a lot, and it is nothing to pay some Taiping money, you are foreigners, it is better to inquire less about these things here." ”

At this time, someone came in to buy medicine, and it was inconvenient to ask more, He Ran smiled at the guy and walked out,

Out of the pharmacy, Yun Ye said in a low voice: "Second brother, there are two people on the left who don't look good, as if they are coming at us. As he spoke, he looked to the right and said nervously, "There are a few over here, let's go quickly." ”

The three of them quickened their pace and just turned a street, when several evil men in front of them blocked their way, and the leader was in his forties, stared at them and said, "Three, come with us." ”

"Who are you, where do you want to take us?" Yun Ye stood in front of He Ran, turned his head to look behind him while asking questions, and saw that there were also a few people surrounding him, and he couldn't help but feel anxious, and pressed the hilt of the gold sword,

A wicked man sneered and said, "We are from the yamen, as for where we go, you will know where we go." ”

Yun Ye asked in a low voice, "What should I do." ”

He Ran shook his head slightly, he knew the stakes well, with the current situation, the officialdom of Dongzhicheng was filthy, and if they came to prison, they would not be able to help themselves, if they knew that the military advisor was arrested for a private visit, then maybe they would fight to the death, people can do anything when they are in a desperate situation, and there is an example of Bai Da and Bai Er in front of them.

He pushed aside Yunye, looked at the evil man and said: "Since the official messenger arrested people, may I ask what law I have violated, please show us your public card first, how can we believe that you are an official messenger if you are not wearing official uniforms." ”

"Oh, you're quite calm, when you get to Dongzhi City, you won't listen to what kind of person I am in Tsuaki, don't talk nonsense, lock me up." As he spoke, he waved to his men,

A few strong men took the chains and stepped forward to make a move, but Yun Ye took the golden sword out of its sheath and shouted, "Stand down." ”

Zha Huang rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "You are not small, and you dare to dance and play with a sword in front of Lao Tzu, it seems that you don't want your life, brothers, copy guys." ”

Seeing that the situation was not good, He Ran raised his voice and said, "Bastard, do you know who to talk to." ”

Yun Ye Hengjian said: "This is the prince of the dynasty and the protector, and he won't kneel down for me." ”

Tsui Huang was slightly stunned, and then laughed and said, "Why don't you say that he is the king." As he spoke, he turned to his subordinates, "You have all heard it, they are pretending to be important officials of the court to deceive, take it quickly." ”

He Ran shouted: "Wait." "Take out the golden seal from your bosom and hold it high," the golden seal is the basis. ”

Tsu Huang looked at the glittering golden seal with a solemn face, and said in a deep voice: "Take it for me." ”

Yun Ye shouted: "What kind of thing are you, and you are also worthy of seeing the seal of the military advisor." ”

He Huang stared at He Ran for a while, then whispered a few words to a few people around him, and when he raised his head again, there was already a fierce light in his eyes, and he smiled cruelly: "Since you don't dare to let me check, you are a thief, brothers, don't show mercy to this kind of villain, on." With that, he drew his knife and rushed up first,

As soon as He Ran saw his eyes, he knew that it was not good, and he went out and blew the bone whistle vigorously to summon Zhong Qiao and the others.

Yun Ye didn't expect that this group of evil men would be so bold, it stands to reason that when encountering this kind of thing, ordinary officials will be extremely cautious, and they will never dare to be so reckless, he can't help but be anxious in his heart, if it is said that he is single, he is not afraid of no matter how many people there are on the other side, he can also kill a bloody road with his ability, but it is difficult for him to ensure the safety of the second brother and Mingqin Chaduo in this situation with the strength of one person,

In a hurry, he thought of capturing the thief and capturing the king, but Na Qihuang was extremely cunning, he stopped after rushing forward a few steps, and waved his sword to urge his subordinates to attack, Yun Ye spread his body around He Ran and Mingqin Chaduo left and right, although he cut off a few swords, he didn't dare to take advantage of the situation to fight back,

He Ran also drew his sword at this moment, and the development of the situation was also much beyond his expectations, seeing that some people dressed the same as these evil men were coming, he hurriedly shouted to the people watching from afar: "I am He Ran, the military division of the court, if you don't come to the rescue, Dongzhi City will be slaughtered." ”

Zha Huang shouted: "He pretends to be a military advisor, but he is really a thief, don't be fooled, whoever dares to make trouble will be dealt with as a thief." ”

He Ran blocked a sword, seeing another sharp sword stabbing at Mingqin Chaduo, it was too late to swing the sword to block, so he hurriedly pulled her hard, took advantage of the situation to take a step forward and protected her with his body, the sword penetrated through his body and stabbed into his back, just at this time, Yunye's golden sword swung in, cutting off the man's wrist together, and the sword that entered the body fell down with it, Mingqin Tea was pale with a pale face, only when He Ran's life could not be guaranteed, he fainted and fell to the ground with a miserable scream,

The companions were injured, the villains attacked more urgently, a few martial arts and stronger ones entangled Yunye with all their strength, and the swords of the rest of the people all went to He Ran Mountain to greet him.

He Ran struggled to open a knife, and when he was not allowed to return his hand, the sword that split the top and stabbed the chest had been avoided, and Yun Ye's golden sword slashed down, although he blocked the fatal second blow for him, he was slashed, and his left arm was immediately bloody,

At the last moment, three people dressed as ordinary people rushed to He Ran's side from the side of the street, waving their swords to protect them while shouting: "Assassinate the military division, do you bastards want to rebel, we are the inspectors of the department, and we all put down our weapons." ”

These three people were sent by the Supervision Department to secretly investigate the case of Bai Dabai Er, and when they heard the chaos here, they rushed to take a look, and when they saw that the military division was in distress, they were so frightened that they rushed in to the rescue.

At this time, the people were in a commotion, and they hissed: "These three are the remnants of the thieves, and they will all be killed by me." And when he cried out, the people stopped.

With the help of the three people of the Supervision Division, Yun Ye's pressure was greatly reduced, and he swung his sword to force the thief who was pestering him back a few steps, his eyes were red, and he shouted and urged everyone to attack, and he himself pounced on Yun Ye,

He Ran protected the Mingqin tea that fell at his feet without moving, and the bone whistle in his mouth blew even more poignantly, when a supervision department probed and fell, Hong Yan finally arrived, and after a while, Zhong Zheng and the four guards also rushed over, and surrounded the military division,

As soon as the situation eased, a team of fifty or sixty officers and soldiers rushed over, He Ran let out a sigh of relief, but saw the person who was the leader muttering a few words, and then stared at He Ran viciously and waved his knife and led his subordinates to join the battle group.

Hong Yan stopped him and shouted, "Bastard, this is the military master." ”

The officer ignored him, and shouted to his men while swinging his sword, "Kill these thugs." ”

He Ran's heart sank, and he said to Hong Yan, who was still shouting: "They already know in their hearts who I am, concentrate on fighting the enemy, kill to the east, and fight against the wall." As he spoke, he bent down and picked up the Mingqin tea,
