However, the two counties are worried about worrying, but they can't stop the Bai family army from doing things, Bai Qing has a good reason, even if he reports to Emperor Taiyuan, he can't erase the suspicious place, Wen Junxin invited the guests to hunt in the mountains and forests of Donglin County and disappeared, the walking route makes people have to suspect that those foreigners are well prepared, and go straight to the destination after entering the mountain, and the two counties and the Bai family army have reached a unified opinion on the attitude of finding out the origin of these foreigners.

Wen Junxin, who was detained by Bai Qing, finally confided in the intention of inviting these guests after two days of interrogation, he wanted to do a firearms business with them, those foreigners had a new type of gun that was better than the firearms, he wanted to win this business and then sell it, and he also wanted to test the gun by arranging hunting, but Wen Junxin suddenly had something, so he had to let the guests go to play for a few days first, and then entertain him well, on the surface, he said that he would return to the county three days before and after, but in fact, if he said that he was not enjoying the fun, it would be nothing to stay for a few more days.

Wen Junxin's confession surprised Bai Qing, but fortunately it didn't work out, although those foreigners disappeared in the mountains, but now the more important thing has become to track down the whereabouts of those foreigners' companions and the firearms they carried.

Anping County received the news, and also knew that it could not be lazy, and mixed in to assist in handling the case on the grounds that Wen Junxin was a citizen of their county, if it was done, the county would be able to earn a reputation and leave some political achievements, but the only thing that was not so good was that the yamen was about to seal the New Year, and the matter of checking people and firearms would not be officially carried out until the New Year anyway.

Bai Qing also knew that it was useless to be anxious about this matter now, so he had to press it down, just Wen Junxin's father prepared a lot of money to ask Bai Qing to see Bai Qing in the hope of taking his son home, Bai Qing looked at the small box of gold, nodded and agreed to this matter, but said first, he was not allowed to leave Anping County until the case was cleared, and he could only be placed under house arrest, otherwise if he ran away, he would take Wen Junxin's father to prison.

The Wen family agreed again and again and took the emaciated Wen Junxin home.

All parties in the county are fighting, and Chengfeng in Erma Town is quietly watching the development of the situation, in their opinion, since there are no traces of the mountains and forests on Qi Ke's side, there is no need for her to know that someone has wanted to enter her mountains and forests for the time being.

Qi Ke didn't know if anyone was looking for those missing red-haired monkeys, anyway, she had already destroyed her corpse, as long as no one came to her to say this, she shouldn't know, and she was happily preparing for the New Year every day.

Qi Ke is responsible for making sweets and pastries, just stay in the warm kitchen, don't have to sit by the well to blow the wind and get cold, the young girls and daughters-in-law who are assigned to her to help are so dazzled by the delicate flower buns she makes, and the children linger outside the kitchen door just to find an opportunity to beg for candy.

After the date of the New Year's banquet is set, they will send a post to Erma Town, inviting Shangguan to come as a guest, which is the case in all villages, and Shangguan will definitely come to have a glass of wine, so under normal circumstances, each village will not hold a New Year's banquet on the same day, but will make an appointment for a day or two, so that when Shangguan arrives in the village, he can leave people to sit down and have a good meal.

Siliu Village lined up on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, Cheng Feng arrived in the morning with his wife and children and his subordinates, the only son Cheng Ruinian was still born at the beginning, and he didn't want to go out to play next to his mother, but he was soon seduced by boys and girls of the same age with beautiful and delicious sweets, and he came back after playing like a mud monkey.
