Luo Feng and the others rested at the Gyeongju Inn. They planned to leave the city as soon as the flow of people passed, but what they were waiting for was the news of the closure of the city.

The guy at the inn revealed this information when he came to deliver refreshments. Luo Feng hurriedly asked what and why? The guy said that there was a murder at the temple fair, and the county ordered the city gate to be sealed and the suspect was arrested.

"Looks like we can't make it today! Buddy! Open two excellent guest rooms! I'm going to have to get some good sleep! An Shouqin got up and followed the guy to the upstairs guest room.

"Brother Luo! You and your sister-in-law should go and rest in peace! Here I am! The cat looked tired and leaned against Qi Yan beside the couch.

"Good!" Luo Feng and Qi Yan also went to rest.

Luo Feng and the others stayed for three days. Luo Feng was a little anxious, what kind of case is it worth locking the city for three days and not opening the city gate?

While they were having dinner downstairs, Luo Feng asked the innkeeper for news. The innkeeper said that it seemed that the third son of the Gyeongju garrison was stabbed to death on the temple fair. The murderer has not yet been caught, so the city gates have not been opened.

When will this have to wait? Luo Feng sat sullenly at the dining table.

"Think fast! I'm going to help solve the case! Gu Xiaodong tore off a chicken leg and said while gnawing on it.

"That's all there is to it!" Luo Feng picked up the chopsticks and ate them.

"Are you really going to meddle in this matter? Something like this must have something to do with the killers! An Shouqin reminded Luo Feng.

"I can't care so much! We need to get back to the capital as soon as possible! Luo Feng ate quickly, and then he put down the dishes and chopsticks and looked at Gu Xiaodong, whose mouth was full of oil.

"No more! Let's go! Gu Xiaodong put down the bones in his hand, picked up a towel and wiped his mouth and hands, and then stretched his waist and stood up.

"Xiaodong and I will go to the yamen first!" Luo Feng also got up to leave.

"My dad has some friendship with the guards in Gyeongju." An Shouqin also stood up.

"Good! Let's go together! Luo Feng and the three of them left the inn and went straight to the county office.

Luo Feng and the three of them came to the county government to ask to see the county magistrate. The officials told them to wait in the second hall, and they went to report to the county magistrate.

The prefectural magistrate is sitting in his study and annoying! When he heard that a visitor was visiting, he never saw him directly. When the official turned around and went out the door, he called the person back again and asked who it was?

The official said that he didn't ask, but he looked like a noble son from the way he was dressed.

The county magistrate followed the official to the second hall. He glanced at the people who saluted him, and he didn't know any of them.

The prefectural magistrate sat down in a chair and asked, "Who are you?" Why did you come to the county office? ”

"An Shouqin, the son of the Marquis of An Yuan in Lingzhou, has seen the county master! They are Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong of Tanji Pavilion. "An Shouqin and another salute.

"Oh? It turned out to be the son of Marquis An Yuan! Have a seat! Serve tea! The prefectural commander's face showed a look of harmony.

After Luo Feng and the three of them sat down, the official served refreshments. An Shouqin explained his intention to Bai County Order. Bai Xian ordered: "I can't ask for it!" Then he told the whole story of the case.

At three o'clock this morning, the third prince of Gyeongju garrison Lu Gong went to the West Temple of Seongseong to repay his vows with his wife. His wife was four months pregnant, and the two of them got out of the sedan chair and entered the temple gate. At this time, a cat burst out and startled Lu Sangongzi's wife.

Lu Sangongzi was angry for a while, picked up the stones on the ground and killed the cat. Unexpectedly, the owner of the cat appeared, and she stepped forward to theorize reluctantly. They fought because of verbal discord, which eventually led to a tragedy.

"You're saying the killer is a woman?" Luo Feng couldn't help but ask.

"A man in black next to her, to be exact. It is said that the man stretched out his hand very quickly, but he had a mask on his face, so no one saw his true face. The woman was also veiled, and no one could see her true face, so the case could not be investigated. Bai Xian Ling sighed.

"Lord County Order, Liu Zhutou is back!" A servant reported outside the side door.

"Let him come to the second class!" Bai Xianling cheered up and sat up straight.

"I've seen the prefectural commander!" Liu Zhutou is not tall, but he speaks with a full temperament, and at first glance he is a person with extraordinary martial arts.

"What's the catch?" Bai Xian Ling asked.

"Judging from the jade pendant left by the suspect at the scene, she must be the daughter of a rich family in the city! We just went to all the jade shops in the city to inquire, and learned that there are six pieces of this jade pendant in total. They were bought for the salt merchants, the Li family's silk village, the private school Fang family, and the deceased's aunt Sun. It's just that these houses of theirs are easy to get in and out, so ......" Liu Zhutou said this, raising his eyes and looking at Bai County's order.

"Let's go!" Bai Xian Ling sorted out his official uniform and led everyone to investigate.

They first came to the house of the salt merchant Hu Bingyi. After a while, Hu Bingyi took his eldest son Hu Li to the living room to meet you.

The white county order explains the meaning. Hu Bingyi asked Hu Li to find out who bought the jade pendant at home.

As soon as Bai Xianling picked up the teacup, Hu Li came back and whispered to Hu Bingyi.

"How?" Bai Xianling put down the teacup and asked.

"It was Uchiko who bought this jade pendant!" Hu Bingyi said frankly.

"Can you please come out and see Mrs. Hu?" Bai Xianling looked at Hu Bingyi.

"Hu Li! Please come to your mother! ”

"Yes!" Hu Li bowed slightly, then glanced at Bai Xianling and walked out.

About a cup of tea, Mrs. Hu walked into the living room, supported by her daughter Hu Ji.

Everyone took a closer look, although this Mrs. Hu had a dignified face, her body was already a little fat. However, her daughter Hu Ji is slender, graceful, and smart-looking.

Bai Xian Ling turned his head to look at Liu Zhutou who was standing at the door. Liu Zhutou shook his head slightly.

"What a disturbance! Leave! Bai Xian Ling stood up and said.

"It's a privilege for Bai County Ling to come to the house! Since you're busy with official business, you won't stay long! Hu Li! Drop-off! Hu Bingyi's tone was full of impatience.

"It stands to reason that he, a salt merchant, should be in line with the Bai County Order! Why such an attitude? Gu Xiaodong quietly asked Luo Feng when he left the Hu family's house.

"I'm afraid this Bai County Order is a clean official who doesn't enter oil and salt!" Luo Feng pondered for a moment.

Everyone then followed Liu Zhutou to Li's house. Although the Li family is in the silk business, the courtyard is very tall.

Liu Zhutou stepped forward and knocked on the door, explaining his intention to the little guy who opened the door. The little servant caught a glimpse of the prefectural magistrate and invited them in.

As soon as you enter the gate, there is a shadow wall. Luo Feng and the others turned the shadow wall and came to the front yard.

The courtyard was full of trees, and it didn't look like the leaves on the trees on the side of the street were withering.

"Please wait in the hall for a moment!" After speaking, the little guy went to the backyard.

Everyone entered the hall and saw a landscape painting hanging on the north wall. In front of the painting is a sandalwood table. There was still a bright light in the copper charcoal furnace. Four tables are neatly placed opposite each other.

It seems that this Boss Li has a lot of friends! Luo Feng thought to himself.

"What kind of wind blew the county magistrate?" A woman of about forty years of age, with a red face, walked in.

"You may be seated! Look at the tea! "Mrs. Li ordered the girl to follow her?

"Where's Boss Li?" Bai Xian Ling did not sit down, but looked carefully at Mrs. Li opposite.

"He went outside to feed and hasn't come back yet, I don't know what the county master has to say?" Mrs. Li said.

"Liu catches the head!" Bai Xian ordered to call.

Liu Zhutou told Mrs. Li about the purpose of coming here today. Mrs. Li took off the jade pendant around her waist and asked, "But this one?" ”

"Exactly! But you're not the one we're looking for! Liu Zhutou raised his eyes and looked at Bai Xianling. Bai Xianling left the Li family with everyone with some disappointment.

"The prefectural magistrate doesn't have to be discouraged, there are two more, isn't there?" An Shouqin looked at Bai Xianling's expression and said comfortingly.
