Forty days after the killing of Man Cun in Kushui Village, the officers and men entered Kushui Village again and found 25 boxes of Feiguang, totaling 500 cans, from the processing workshop.

At the same time, in the Dali Temple.

"Listen to me!" A young man with a young face and starry eyes with sword eyebrows was wearing a scarlet official robe, and hurried a few steps to catch up with the middle-aged man in front, and said sharply: "The twenty-five boxes of flying light in Kushui Village are far from the amount mentioned in the intelligence!" This case can't be closed! ”

"What's more, what did the Criminal Department say when it turned the case over, they said that they had thoroughly investigated Kushui Village, and none of them survived, and the result?! How far is it from Kushui Village to the processing workshop, this is called a thorough investigation! I'm afraid I haven't even stepped through the door of the village! ”

Liu De, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, frowned and turned back: "What do you want to say?" ”

"The whole village of Kushui Village was destroyed, this is definitely a hidden secret, why didn't we let our work go to the test and bury those hundred people in a hurry! Why didn't the Criminal Department send someone to inspect it a little, and then make a conclusion on the fact that Feiguang did not survive! It is clear that the amount of flying light cannot be reached, so why rush to close the case and not investigate it thoroughly? ”

Liu De said slowly: "So, where are you going to check?" ”

The young man stammered: "I ......"

"Zou Shaoqing, I can understand your mood, when I was young, I also encountered many cases like this that seemed to be full of suspicions, but I couldn't find out the results I wanted." Liu Dedao: "I even went to confront my boss for my opinions, but in the end, I finally went alone to find the news, and the conclusion I got was not the same as the original?" Could it be that these people from the Criminal Department and Dali Temple together can't compare to you? Could it be that I, Liu De, am blind? ”

He said and patted Zou Shiyun on the shoulder: "Since the boss has sent a message to close the case, let's close the case." Now that the remaining Feiguang in Kushui Village has been found, the murderer who killed more than 100 people is also dead, isn't that enough? ”

Zou Shiyun found it difficult to understand: "But the amount of flying light ......"

"In order to get out as soon as possible during the escape, the prisoner threw away many flying lights along the way. Most of the jars containing the Flying Light stock solution were broken after being dropped, and there were so many pieces that it was time-consuming, laborious, and useless to reassemble, so you don't have to think about it anymore. Any other words? ”

"But ......," Zou Shiyun muttered, "But those more than 100 people, even if Fang Heming oversmoked Feiguang and went crazy, how could he kill so many people?" Even if some of them died in the fire, how could it be that none of them escaped? Isn't it strange that there is not one? ”

"Sometimes that's how it is, what seems to be a coincidence is the truth. Zou Shaoqing. Liu De said calmly: "Kushui Village sells and processes Feiguang, the crime is extremely evil, how many people have been harmed by Feiguang from that village, has Zou Shaoqing thought about it?" Even if they are caught, they are all capital crimes, and since everyone is dead, why bother with these things that are not important at all? ”

Liu De shook his head as he spoke, raised his feet and walked out.

"It's important! How can this not be important?! Zou Shiyun chased after him: "If the people of Kushui Village are arrested, they will die by the law, but if they are killed, they will die in vain!" If we can't give justice to the dead, this is an unjust case! I can't give the hundreds of people in the ground an explanation, let alone accuse them of the guilt they bear! ”

Liu De said: "Give them an explanation...... Zou Shiyun, you are really still too young. Let's do what we have at hand, since this case is in my charge, I will decide it. You have only come to Dali Temple to take office not long ago, and it is normal that you can't figure out many things, so go back. He waved his hand behind his back: "You better go back." ”

After that, Liu De boarded the carriage waiting in front of Dali Temple to take him back. Zou Shiyun stood in place, his brows furrowed together, squeezing out deep furrows in the brows of that young face.

He is indeed very young, and in addition to his own wishes, he can come to be the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and he still relies more on the merits of his ancestors. Therefore, some people in Dali Temple are not convinced by him, and he is also clear, but he is really not as good as his elders, and he is young and vigorous.

The person who had been behind him finally groped his way and whispered, "My lord, let's go home too." ”

"What a home! I didn't have any noodles to eat! Zou Shiyun gritted his teeth and said: "What a Liu De, since I don't listen to my good words and don't let me take care of it in every way, I want to manage it to the end and investigate it to the end!" Zhang Pu, let's go! ”

"......" Zhang Pu stood still, trembling and said, "However, I am just an accompanying scribe. ”

"You're my scrivener, so, follow me." Zou Shiyun raised his hand: "One, two, three......"

"Let's go!" Zhang Pu hurriedly opened his legs, no matter how many steps he ran first, he turned around and asked blankly: "My lord, where are we going so late, what are we going to check?" ”

Zou Shiyun put down his hand, stood in place and thought for a while before he said, "Who discovered this workshop?" ”

"It is said to be the person of Yang and Hou." Zhang Pu said: "What, ...... you?" ”

"Yang and Hou." Zou Shiyun lowered his eyes and thought: "I have also heard about Yang and Hou's actions in the past two years, and there is nothing strange about his people. However, since you want to see Yang and Hou, you must have definite evidence in your hand. Zhang Pu! ”

"Here it is!"

"Let's go," Zou Shiyun stretched his brows: "Okay, isn't it a coincidence or a fact?" Let's go to the mass grave now! ”

Zhang Pu looked at his boss's radiant face, and said in his heart, I'm just an accompanying scribe, why go to that kind of place, I'm really unwilling!

The reluctant Zhang Shuzhi appeared at the mass grave soon after, his legs trembled, and he held a shovel and shovel and said: "No offense No offense, no offense, it's really adults who want to see, I was forced." I was forced. ”

Zou Shiyun pinched a handkerchief in his hand, looked at them one by one with the lamp, and his face became more and more heavy: "Look." ”

"I don't look at it, I don't watch it! Don't do my business! Look at the one who is going to be haunted! ”

"......" Zou Shiyun retracted his hand and whispered: "These corpses all have fatal wounds, and each of them is injured in a very different way, and it doesn't seem like the same person did it." ”

He stood up and clapped his hands: "It's done, Ming'er will send someone to turn over all these corpses and re-examine them." ”

“…… Will Liu Shaoqing be sure? ”

"So I'm going to ask Yang and Hou for help."

——————

In front of the Changming Hall in the palace, Song Chuanbai stood with his hands behind his back, his body was straight, and his eyes were straight, staring at the golden and red carved pillars at the door motionlessly. The surrounding palace people also looked at each other, stood silently with their heads down, and occasionally exchanged a look.

The empress's henchman, the great eunuch, pushed the door out again, cautiously approached Song Chuanbai, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is unwell, I really can't see you today." ”

"If you can't see me, you can see Shen Pingcheng." Song Chuan's white eyes didn't move anywhere to him, and his voice was very calm.

The great eunuch said in his heart, "What are you talking about?" The emperor can see whoever he wants, and refusing to hear about such a thing as being unwell is an excuse, why didn't he hurry up the stairs today, and he was still more energetic? Could it be that you want me to come out directly and say that the empress actually told you to go home?

"Your Majesty is not in good health, and you are not even in a good mood, maybe Your Majesty will sleep and want to see you when I get up tomorrow." The big eunuch hurriedly said, "It's not a problem for you to wait here!" ”

"If you're not feeling well, what's wrong?"

The big eunuch said that I was not familiar with this, so he opened his mouth and came: "Your Majesty is diligent in political affairs, and he is too tired, and he accidentally contracted the wind and cold when he criticized the folds at night." ”

Song Chuanbai smiled slightly: "Now that autumn has just begun, and the sky is not cold, you can make Your Majesty feel the wind and cold, it can be seen that you have been busy with affairs recently, and you can't take care of it." It's really hard. ”

What does it mean to be careless? The world is big, and there is nothing more important in the palace than the emperor's health and safety, is this unclear and secretly saying that he is derelict in his duties! What a sin!

The big eunuch immediately understood that this was the Hou Ye who couldn't see the emperor, and took himself as an anchor, and immediately made a heart-wrenching review, and expressed his praise for the emperor's diligence and his own incompetence, and promised in words that he would not commit it again, not to mention that next time it was "occasional cold", even a suspicious sneeze would not let the precious emperor hit.

Song Chuanbai usually doesn't love Ming with an embarrassing character, at least he won't take Qiao for no reason and fight against the empress's henchmen, otherwise the big eunuch wouldn't have started and was kind enough to persuade him. Seeing that Song Chuanbai was no longer in trouble, the great eunuch immediately slipped away and returned to the Palace of Eternal Life in a huff.

The great eunuch pushed open the door, and the smell of incense mixed with the warm wind immediately hit his face.

I saw that in the hall illuminated by countless moon pearls, behind countless light gauze curtains made of shark silk, one hand slowly lifted up, grabbed the soft couch side, and fell the curtain hanging down with fine blue crystal. The gesture was as if to lift the curtain or extend the hand, but then the hand was put back in.

Then a whisper came from inside: "Are you gone?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, no." The big eunuch was very knowledgeable: "Master Hou said that he was really worried about the dragon body and wanted to see him before leaving." ”

"Worried ......" The voice behind the curtain was still the woman's usual delicate and majestic voice, but it sounded more tired and hoarse at this time.

"He's worried about me?" The empress asked rhetorically, with a cold smile in her voice: "I'm afraid he's not questioning me outside, why don't you see him!" ”

"Your Majesty!" The big eunuch was about to settle with the mud immediately.

"It's really a guts!" The empress said: "I am not feeling well, do I still have to hold on to see him?" Let him! ”

The great eunuch was immediately ordered to go out and let Yang and Hou go.

Who knew that Yang and Hou stood at the door and asked with a little smile: "Your Majesty is really unwell?" ”

"We dare to lie to you!" The big eunuch said in his heart: Of course what did the emperor say, what did I do, what's the use of asking this!

He leaned in and whispered, "Your Majesty is lying down......"

Song Chuanbai seemed to be very satisfied with this sentence, and his eyes bent when he heard this: "Then, I won't disturb Your Majesty, please ask my father-in-law to greet Your Majesty for me." ”

You just want to make sure that Your Majesty is sick, right, if you don't get sick, you won't give up, right?

The big eunuch held back the thoughts that were full of thoughts, and watched Hou Ye go back, for some reason, at this time, he felt that Hou Ye's pace was easier than when he came.
