In the dim night light and dull atmosphere, her wide eyes and frightened expression resembled a frightened little woman, which made people feel very pitiful.

Zhao Yin stared down at the woman who ran to him, knowing that she was pretending, her expression was deceiving, and there were few words of truth in this mouth.

"Don't be afraid."

He squinted slightly, stretched out his arm to bring her in front of him, and patted her on the back,

If there was nothing, there was a low snort.

Shi Yong heard it, looked up from the crook of his arm, looked at his indifferent face, and wondered in his heart, could it be that he acted too much? Isn't this all according to his request? A young lady from the Guogong Mansion, a pampered lady from the General's Mansion, doesn't she always have such an expression when she sees a corpse?

"General, am I embarrassing you?"

As if she had thought of something, she suddenly stepped in front of him, glanced at the several adults who came with Zhao Yin with a shyly expression, bit her lower lip, and seemed to have just woken up from her fright, looking at Zhao Yin with a clear gaze.

"The concubine is out of order."

"Fool, you're just scared." Zhao Yin glanced at her, his eyes were extremely deep, seeing her panicked look, her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, she suddenly lowered her head, kissed her sideburns in a soothing manner, and gently stroked her hair, then patted her back, turned around and said to her peers.

"Let everyone laugh, Neiko is timid, and the woman in the deep house has never seen the world."

These people are all officials of Lulong County, and that Lord Qian is the county prince of Lulong County, Yongping Prefecture, except for Zheng Cong, the rest of these people were eating and drinking with Zhao Yin just now, and when they heard that the general's old mansion was dead, they hurriedly followed.

As soon as they heard this, everyone hurriedly gave up their hands and laughed that the general's wife was a true temperament.

"When Mrs. Zun first arrived in Qingshan, she encountered this, and she was frightened, it was natural. The general and his wife are deeply affectionate, which makes me envious. ”

"There, there."

Zhao Yin waved his hand modestly, and said with a straight face: "Lord Qian, why don't you go in and have a look?" ”

When he entered the courtyard, Zheng Chenzuo and the two catchers had already gone into the stove room to check the body, and the people in the stove room had also withdrawn.

The county lady originally stood here and didn't move, but she wiped the sweat from her forehead when she heard the words.

"Exactly, exactly. Xia Guan should go and see for himself. ”

As soon as the county magistrate left, several other county officials followed.

Zhao Yin looked at them expressionlessly, one arm still holding Shi Yong, his body was cold, and his robe was cold.

Shi Yong's body moved, slightly widening the distance between the two.

"Why don't you go in and have a look?"

Zhao Yin: "It's not very good-looking. ”

Shi Yong was puzzled, "You don't look at the scene, you don't look at the corpse, how are you going to judge the case?" ”

Zhao Yin: "Madame will do it after reading it." ”

Shi Yong: "......"

Xian Yi stood by the door for a long time, and when she saw this, she approached and presented the token that Shi Yong had picked up next to the corpse just now.

"General, this is what I picked up next to the corpse."

Zhao Yin glanced at it and didn't answer, "Give it to Zheng Chengzuo." ”

Xian Yi snorted and glanced at Shi Yong.

At this time, the county magistrate Qian Minggui came out with his mouth and nose covered, walked in front of Zhao Yin, took a deep breath of fresh air, shook his head and sighed, and said apologetically.

"The general has just settled in Qingshan Town, and this kind of thing happened, it's really unlucky, why don't the general and his wife return to Lulong County with the subordinate tonight, and find a courtyard in this county for the general to resettle?"

The conditions in Lulong County are naturally better than those in Qingshan Town.

The murder in the county master's own jurisdiction, and it also happened in the general's house who had just returned to his hometown and province, which was really an undignified matter, and the mood he wanted to make up for it was written on his face.

However, Zhao Yin refused.

"I will return to my hometown to save my relatives, how can I leave my hometown again for pleasure? Lord Qian doesn't have to mind, it's just a dead person, and he can't scare the general. ”

Qian Minggui's face turned white suddenly.

This is a general who has really fought in battles, how can he be afraid of the dead?

He was embarrassed and said, "It's the lower official's inconsiderate thinking, which damages the prestige of the general." The general and his wife went back to the house to sit and wait, and the lower official asked someone to clean up the scene so that his wife would not be disturbed. ”

"It doesn't matter." Zhao Yin didn't move.

Qian Minggui lowered his head again and laughed.

After a while, Zheng Chen came out.

He cleared his throat, which seemed to be a little dry.

"General Pei, Lord Qian, judging from the clothes and tokens left behind by the corpse, the identity can be determined that it is the envoy of Wuliang Khan, and this murder is similar to the case of the pro-team that happened two days ago, and the death is also the same. The deceased seems to have been attacked by wild beasts, and all of them have their tongues bitten off, but there is only one difference, the people who died in front of them could not find their tongues at the scene of the crime, this ......"

He glanced at Shi Yong, afraid of staining his wife's ears, so he didn't say anything about his tongue buried in the noodle bowl, and shook his head.

"At the moment, I don't know what kind of beast is doing it."

Qian Minggui stroked the beard on his chin, "No, the team of relatives has been placed in Lulong by this county, how can they die in Qingshan again?" ”

Zheng Chen said: "The deceased may be the one who disappeared with Princess Huaining. ”

The news that Jingshi got only knew that Princess Huaining was missing, but he didn't know that there was a messenger and a girl named Yinzhan who disappeared with the princess.

Qian Minggui nodded, and when he looked back at Zhao Yin, his eyes lit up again, full of flattering smiles.

"It's really unfortunate that General Pei's return to his hometown this time happened to coincide with such a big case in Qingshan. Alas, Xia Guan has also been restless and anxious recently. The disappearance of the princess is such a big thing, and the next official is a small county order, and his ability is limited. But now, the imperial court did not send anyone down, and the lord of Futai ordered the officials to solve the case within seven days, seven days, seven days, and there are only three days left......"

Qian Minggui straightened the hat on his head as he spoke.

"Don't hide it from the general, I'm afraid that the black yarn of the subordinate will not be able to keep it."

Zhao Yin looked at him calmly, "Don't worry, adults. Since it is a beast that commits a crime, it is reported as it is. ”

Qian Minggui shook his head, "The general doesn't know. Xiaguan has already dispatched the county's strong men to hunt for it quickly and go up the mountain to find it, but this big green mountain is stacked with obstacles, endless, and there are jackals, tigers and leopards. The princess was not found, and the body was not found, and the two people were killed by falling so fast. If there is no evidence, the lower officials can't just catch a brute and go on an errand. ”

After that, he sighed again.

"Unless the princess can get it back with all her beards and tails, otherwise, don't talk about black yarn, the head of the lower official may not be able to be saved."

Zhao Yin frowned slightly, glanced at him, and suddenly turned away.

"I have to hear that Lord Qian's father will celebrate his seventieth birthday soon?"

Qian Minggui is the county magistrate of Lulong County, but he is also a person from Qingshan Town, and when he heard Zhao Yin ask, he was stunned and looked embarrassed.

"I am tired of the general's thoughts, and this is indeed the case. The birthday banquet was set before the Qingshan Town case. Now that such a big case has happened, it should not be done again, but the old father is getting old, and his body is becoming more and more unfavorable. Thinking about it again, the horizontal and vertical case is already like this, and today I have a strong birthday for my father, and I will ...... in the future If the lower officials are implicated in this case, I am afraid that they can only regret it in vain. ”

The corners of Zhao Yin's mouth pulled slightly: "Lord Qian can be described as filial piety." ”

At this time, the two trappers quickly carried the body out.

Lord Qian arched his hand towards Zhao Yin and made arrangements with Zheng Yan.

Shi Yong hurriedly turned his head, his head hung on Zhao Yin's shoulder, and said in a voice so low that only he could hear: "His blood is still hot." ”
