Yang Qiuchi found out that Yun Tianqing's case was wrong, stopped the execution, and snatched Yun Tianqing's son back from the hands of death, which has made Yun Tianqing grateful, and later Yang Qiuchi arranged for Yun Tianqing and his son Yun Xuan to live together to take care of each other, and the equipment has already gone, just waiting for the court to officially acquit them and restore their freedom, Yun Tianqing is even more happy, and now Yang Qiuchi met him in the flower room where the distinguished guests were greeted by the yamen, which almost flattered Yun Tianqing.

Entering the flower room, Yun Tianqing knelt down and kowtowed, and thanked him. Yang Qiuchi helped him up and asked him to sit down, and then told him that after his own investigation, Wang Dianshi and Wang Dianshi's concubine Zhao Qinglan were likely to be the real murderers who framed his son and killed Yun Xuan's wife and brother-in-law.

Yang Qiuchi waited for his mood to calm down a little, and then he said that he had asked the whole country to catch these two people, and Yun Tianqing thanked him repeatedly. Then, Yang Qiuchi expressed his speculation. When Yun Tianqing heard Yang Qiuchi say that Wang Dianshi and Zhao Qinglan were probably hidden in the nearby mountains, his eyes widened in surprise, he didn't believe that these two people had such courage at all, but he believed in the judgment of Yang Qiuchi, the life-saving benefactor.

After listening to Yang Qiuchi's proposal to ask him to organize the Miao people in Sili and Eight Townships to search the mountain, he agreed, in fact, since he knew that the enemy Wang Dianshi and the two might be hiding in the nearby mountains, even if Yang Qiuchi did not mention this request, in order to take revenge, he would organize a search for the mountain.

Yang Qiuchi told Yun Tianqing that there was no need to search carefully all over the mountains, because the range was too large, the mountains were high and the forests were deep, and the effect was not great, and they would not hide in the mountains for a day or two, so they would soon go down the mountain to the nearby villages and market towns to buy daily necessities.

Because Wang Dianshi often goes to the countryside, many people know him, so this job of going down the mountain to buy things is obviously not done by Wang Dianshi, his concubine Zhao Qinglan lives deep in the ya, and almost no one knows her from outsiders, so it is most likely that she will go down the mountain to buy things.

Since there is now a portrait of Zhao Qinglan, Yang Qiuchi asked Yun Tianqing to circulate Zhao Qinglan's portrait in various villages and villages, so that everyone can pay attention to this person, and let Miao Zhong wait for the rabbit in all the market towns, and it is very likely that her traces will be found.

However, Yang Qiuchi specially reminded Yun Tianqing that this Zhao Qinglan knows martial arts, and martial arts should not be low, once the traces are found, they will immediately report to Yang Qiuchi, and they can be tracked, but they must not be arrested, otherwise they may be injured by it, and it will alarm them, causing them to escape and cause trouble.

Yun Tianqing remembered them one by one. As he was talking, he heard the gongs and drums in the direction of the yamen and firecrackers, Yang Qiuchi and Yun Tianqing were slightly stunned, and glanced at each other, at this time, the porter of the yamen gate hurriedly ran in, and said: "Master, there are a lot of Miao people at the yamen, and the gongs and drums are going to give you a golden plaque, and some pigs and sheep have been brought in. Led by a few old men, they said that they were here to thank you for saving their young master, the owner of the village, and they wanted to kowtow and thank them. ”

Haha, Yang Qiuchi and Yun Tianqing both laughed. Yang Qiuchi and Yun Tianqing came to the yamen, and saw that the black crows outside the gate were all Miao Zhong, and when they saw Yang Qiuchi and Yun Tianqing coming out side by side, they all knelt down with brushes and brushes, and shouted thank you to Lord Qingtian in stiff Chinese.

Yang Qiuchi hurriedly beckoned everyone to get up. At this time, the two young men from Miao Zhong carried a large plaque covered in red and colored to Yang Qiuchi, with the words "Living Immortals" written on it, and the ink had not dried, obviously it had just been written.

Looking at this plaque, Yang Qiuchi secretly laughed, Miao people may not know much about Chinese, no matter how you look at this plaque, it is given to the herb Langzhong.

Those old Miao men were the ones who went to the execution ground at noon to collect the corpses, and they were the little heads of Miao Village, and one of them stepped forward and bowed and said: "Thank you Lord Qingtian for finding out the truth and returning the young master of my village, I specially wrote a plaque and gave it to the adults." We have nothing of value in the mountain and wild Miao Village, so we drove some pigs and sheep to give to Lord Yang, and I am grateful to express our gratitude! I beg you to laugh! ”

Yang Qiuchi smiled and turned his head to look at Yun Tianqing, Yun Tianqing first stroked his beard and nodded to these old men in praise, turned around and bowed to Yang Qiuchi and said, "This is everyone's heart, Lord Yang must smile!" ”

Yang Qiuchi said: "You guys are so polite, correcting unjust, false and wrongful cases is our business, and it doesn't have to be like this." I can accept this plaque, but I can't accept this cattle and sheep. ”

Although Yang Qiuchi pushed back repeatedly, the Miao people's enthusiastic, straightforward and honest surnames finally made Yang Qiuchi finally accept this group of pigs and sheep, and instructed the officials to hurry up and slaughter them in captivity in the yamen.

Yang Qiuchi instructed the officials to take the plaque and hang it in the flower room where the guests were welcomed.

Yun Tianqing took advantage of this effort to call those old men aside, and said that Wang Dianshi and Zhao Qinglan framed Yun Suo, killed Yun Suo's wife, wife and brother, and arranged the matter of searching for the murderer. The old men were shocked and angry when they heard this, bowed down to receive the order, and hurriedly left after taking Miao Zhong to say goodbye to Yang Qiuchi.

Yang Qiuchi relaxed his mind now, relying on these Miao people who are familiar with the terrain to search in this lofty mountain, the effect must be much stronger than that of Jinyi Wei and Ya Gong.

For the next seven or eight days, there was no news. Yang Qiuchi went to the signing room every day to check the accounts, arrange the work of collecting harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, or let Yue Shengtang ask some trivial cases, or let Yun Tianqing and Yun Xuan out to drink and talk together.

Yun Tianqing was originally very grateful to Yang Qiuchi, but now seeing that Yang Qiuchi is so kind and approachable, and he values himself very much, he is even more happy, so he almost pulled Yang Qiuchi to kowtow and worship his brother.

This time, Yang Qiuchi was working in the yamen signing room, and the porter came to report that some Miao people asked to see the eldest master.

Yang Qiuchi hurriedly ordered to invite quickly, and it was two of the old men who came to deliver the plaque last time, and told Yang Qiuchi that it was a small market town two hundred miles away from here, and the Miao people who were squatting and waiting found Wang Dianshi, sneakily covered their faces and bought a lot of food, and went to the mountains. This Wang Dianshi often went to the countryside to collect taxes, so many Miao people knew him, and according to the arrangement, he did not start arresting, and had already sent someone to track him down.

Yang Qiuchi was overjoyed, although it was a little strange, how could the situation found not be quite the same as he estimated, his concubine Zhao Qinglan did not show up, but this Wang Dianshi personally went down the mountain to buy things.

Yang Qiuchi hurriedly went to the inner office to tell the news. Hearing Yang Qiuchi say that he was going to take someone to arrest him, Qin Zhihui and Song Qing were a little nervous, although they were accompanied by Liu Ruobing and Song Yun'er to protect them, but they were still hanging in their hearts, and they told Yang Qiuchi to be careful.

Yang Qiuchi instructed Xia Ping to lead the female guards to do a good job of safety and security, and left twenty male guards to obey Xia Ping's dispatch and cooperate to protect the safety of the internal office, and then he took his follower Chang Fu, Nangong Xiong and twenty male guards, as well as Liu Ruobing, Song Yuner and his little black dog, as well as the yamen to catch fast, and set off with the Miao Zhong who led the way.

These two hundred miles are all mountain roads, traversed in the primeval forest, and the sheep intestine trail winds and turns from time to time, and can only be walked. Along the way, from time to time, the Miao people who passed the news came to report the situation of tracking, and constantly revised the direction of progress according to the intelligence, which made Yang Qiuchi fully appreciate the strong organizational surname of the Miao people, and realized the swiftness and effectiveness of the Miao people's information transmission work, no wonder the officers and soldiers were defeated in the big battle in the Hongwu years, such mountains and mountains were not the battlefield that the officers and soldiers were good at, and the intelligence work of the Miao people was fast and effective, and the troops were not much different, so it was strange that the officers and soldiers were not defeated.

In the end, I got the exact news that Wang Dianshi was hidden in a cave, but Zhao Qinglan was never seen.

More than 200 miles of mountain road, they hurried and walked for almost three days, fortunately, there were Miao villages along the road to provide food and lodging, no need to eat and sleep, but not so hard.

Along the way, Liu Ruobing deliberately did not get along with Yang Qiuchi alone, and her speech was also faint, Song Yuner was Yang Qiuchi's little tail anyway, and she followed everywhere she went, except for the thatched house.

For Song Yun'er, this journey is also a trip to the mountains and rivers, and it is difficult to be alone with Yang Qiuchi, as if she has returned to the moment when she solved the death case of the old master Gongyuan and the two went to the countryside, and she was very happy. In Song Yun'er's eyes, Liu Ruobing is just her elder, so she feels that this trip with Yang Qiuchi is like a couple.

But Yang Qiuchi's heart was not so relaxed, he didn't dare to be too intimate with Song Yun'er, first, for fear that Song Yun'er would misunderstand, and secondly, for fear that Liu Ruobing would be sad, so he was really in a dilemma.

In the evening of that day, I finally arrived at the cave where Wang Dianshi was found.

The cave is surrounded by dense primeval forest, and the entrance to the cave is hidden behind a mess of thatch and thorns, and there are several monks who secretly lurk there near the entrance of the cave. Yang Qiuchi ordered the cave to be surrounded, and then lay down behind a big rock, calling the catchers to shout, and let Wang Dianshi and the two of them come out and surrender.

After shouting for a while, there was no reaction in the cave, Yang Qiuchi was a little nervous, these Miao people have been guarding outside the cave, this guy should not have escaped, could it be that there is another exit from this cave, and he escaped from another exit?

Yang Qiuchi was about to let the catcher go into the cave to arrest, and then thought that Zhao Qinglan was good at martial arts, and the enemy was dark and clear, so it was easy to suffer if he rushed in to arrest. Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly saw the little black dog squatting at his feet, looking at the cave with bright eyes and vigilance, and immediately thought that it was the most suitable to use a police dog to arrest him in this case.

He squatted down, touched Xiao Hei's forehead, pointed to the cave, and slapped Xiao Hei's buttocks, Xiao Hei was like a sharp arrow off the string, and he reached the mouth of the cave with a few ups and downs, and a black smoke slipped into the hole.

Yang Qiuchi waved his hand and ordered the catchers to follow Xiao Hei and rush in.

Holding the torches that had already been lit in their hands, the catchers shook their waist knives and followed Xiao Hei into the cave with a shout.

After a while, from the depths of the cave, there was a man's scream, Xiao Hei's biting roar, and the shouting of the catchers ordering him to surrender, but he didn't hear the woman's voice, isn't this Zhao Qinglan in the cave?
