Chapter 40: The Conundrum Thrown Out

The people of the hidden platform have already found Chu Zifeng, if she doesn't give Chu Zifeng an idea, the head of the Chu family will have to be the same as her father back then, the white-haired person will send the black-haired person.

Mei Xiaoren looked back at the dark forest and said to Chu Zifeng: "You can't go back to Yunxian, if you go back, you will throw yourself into the net and die." ”

"That's not to let me escape," Chu Zifeng asked in a low voice, obviously a little reluctant. Let him escape, doesn't mean that he will have to support himself in the future, and he will no longer be able to rely on him

"They have already found you, if they really have the intention to kill you, I will guarantee that you will not survive for ten days in Daning."

"Then what should I do, where can I go" Chu Zifeng was anxious and dazed.

Mei Xiaoren took out the only few silver tickets on his body and stuffed them into Chu Zifeng's hand, and guided him from afar, "A few hours to the south is the Xia Kingdom, and when you arrive in the Xia Kingdom, take the silver tickets and find the traveling merchant to exchange some Xia Kingdom coins, and stay there." ”

"Go to Xia Kingdom" Chu Zifeng's brows furrowed more and more tightly.

"The people of the hidden moon platform are all over Daning, you stay here and hide from the first day of the first month, but you can't hide from the fifteenth, whether you want to live or a high bed and soft pillow, you choose." Mei Xiaoren felt that she had done her best to the Chu family, she almost took her life in order to protect Chu Zifeng today, and now she has pointed out a way for Chu Zifeng to live, whether she goes or not, it is up to him.

Without further ado, she moved away.

Chu Zifeng hurriedly caught up with Mei Xiaoren, "Little Mei'er, why don't you go with me." ”

Mei Xiaoren looked at Chu Zifeng inexplicably, "Why?"

"You are my daughter-in-law"

"Roll"

Mei Xiaoren glanced at Chu Zifeng coldly. This "roll" she has long wanted to give to Chu Zifeng, she endured it in the past, and now Chu Zifeng is about to leave Daning, if she doesn't say it at this time, it will inevitably become a pity.

She quickened her pace, but Chu Zifeng stopped there, watching the back disappear into the night, he clutched the silver ticket in his hand. Escaping for a while is not an escape for a lifetime, as long as your life is still there, you can come back sooner or later. This woman, he must marry

Mei Xiaoren rushed back to the yamen overnight, and on the second day, no one knew where she had gone yesterday or what had happened to her.

Ye Zhi tried to knock on the side, but Mei Xiaoren didn't say a word about yesterday's events.

Chu Zifeng has confirmed that the murder was indeed committed by Yinyuetai, and she has also dealt with the living Hades once, whether she can afford it or not, Mei Xiaoren already knows it in her heart. In order to prevent Ye Zhi from worrying, she only told Ye Zhi that the case had encountered some obstacles and it was difficult to continue to investigate, so he asked him to write out the file first, and wait for the prefect to see it before deciding.

Three days later, outside Qiushui County.

The scorching sun hung high, and the city gate was full of officials, making this small city tower look very solemn for the first time.

Mei Xiaorenda waited outside the city gate in the early morning dressed in the official mansion, and waited for nearly two hours before he heard the sound of a carriage in front of him. She looked up and saw a group of chariots and horses walking towards this side, with many guards with knives riding horses in front of her, and attendants holding flags in the back, and nearly a hundred government soldiers escorting the spacious carriage in the middle.

The man they were waiting for came.

The yamen all cheered up, and Mei Xiaoren also hurriedly tidied up his clothes, stood upright, and waited for the carriage to approach.

The carriage stopped before it could approach the city gate, and after a pause, there was still no movement on the carriage.

Mei Xiaoren understood, so he hurriedly walked towards the carriage, stood under the carriage respectfully, bowed his head and bowed his hands, and said loudly: "Humble welcome to the prefect." ”

"Hmph, Gong

Ying, if you don't make the old man angry, how can you be willing?"

Hear the sound first, then see the people.

The man in a dark green official uniform had already walked out of the carriage with a displeased face, and after seeing Mei Xiaoren, his already heavy face darkened a little.

Mei Xiaoren didn't dare to look up at the prefect's expression, just this dress could make her look daunted.

She maintained an arched posture, lowered her body more and more, and smiled: "How dare you be lowly"

"First there was collusion with bandits, and then there was the deduction of military rations, what would you not dare" Governor Li's voice did not have a good tone.

Mei Xiaoren felt a rush in her heart the moment she heard it, she didn't expect that the matter of military rations would reach Lao Li's ears, she was about to raise her head to argue, and when she saw the prefect's cloudy face, she lost her courage, and buried her head in a proper manner, stretched out her hand, and made a gesture of support: "Prefect, please." ”

Li Zhifu reprimanded and reprimanded, but he still gave this posterior thin noodles, gave his hand to Mei Xiaoren, and let him help him get out of the carriage.

Mei Xiaoren walked towards the city gate with the prefect, and the officials knelt down to greet him. In the past, it was rare for the officials to set foot in the poor countryside of Qiushui County, and this was the first time they had experienced such a scene, and they were cautious everywhere, secretly praying that nothing would go wrong, so as not to cause trouble to their own adults.

Mei Xiaoren said as he walked: "The adult came in time, there was a murder here a few days ago, and the humble post couldn't make up his mind, so please give me advice." ”

The case has been pressed in her heart for a long time, and finally it is time to throw this problem to Lao Li, and see what Lao Li says.

"What a murder"

"Do you remember the thirty-four bandits who were taken into the state capital last time?"

Hearing this, Governor Li stopped and looked at Mei Xiaoren in confusion, "What's wrong with those bandits?"

"It's strange to say, shouldn't they be in Xuanzhou, but a few days ago they died in Yun County" Mei Xiaoren's voice became smaller. She felt that those bandits could get out of the state capital prison alive, and Governor Li must know the reason, otherwise it would be difficult for thirty-four people to escape from Xuanzhou Mansion.

"It's dead," Governor Li frowned deeply.

Mei Xiaoren nodded, lowered his voice and said, "There is no one left." ”

"What happened"

"I don't know what happened, those bandits have been taken away before, how can they appear in Yun County" Mei Xiaoren asked as he quietly raised his eyes and looked at Governor Li's mansion.

Governor Li kept his face stiff and didn't answer her questions, as if he deliberately avoided talking about the group of bandits.

She may not be able to ask how the bandits got out of the Xuanzhou Mansion prison, but how should the case of their death in Yunxian be ended, Lao Li has to get an idea for her, so that she will not be put on hold, and in the end it will be her who is derelict in her duties.

"According to the adult's opinion, the murder case is not investigated"

"Check, these people have other origins, in case they are asked, we have to have an explanation."

"Above" Mei Xiaoren was puzzled.

Governor Li glanced at Mei Xiaoren in a blink of an eye: "Before you took office, my husband told you that in the officialdom, there are some things that you can't ask and you can't remember."

Mei Xiaoren was helpless when he heard this, and he had to pretend to be smiling, "Of course I remember the teachings of the adults, but there is still a troublesome place in this case." ”

"No matter how troublesome it is, you have to check"

"It may be the adults of the Hidden Moon Platform, so I want to know if the adults are referring to the "above" big, or the Hidden Moon Platform is big. ”
