Chapter 47: Unlikable (Part 3)
The prince's visit to the country ended quickly.
The emperor in the palace only smiled when he learned of the situation, "His so-called great Confucianism is not as good as a student of the country, is it indiscriminate?" Or ......"
Han Shishi lowered his head, and four words floated above his head: ulterior motives.
On the mirror platform, Wang Shou said coldly: "That student...... Give some benefits. β
So Yang Xuan inexplicably got a few pieces of silk.
"This is a good thing in the palace."
Cao Ying's eyes lit up, and Yi Niang sneered, "It's the reward of the dog emperor, phew!" β
Looking back, all these silks were thrown into the stove by Yi Niang.
Until the afternoon, the kitchen still smelled of roasted satin, which was very exciting.
Yang Xuan felt that Yi Niang was quite arrogant as a member of a large family, but she was a little worried that she was in charge of money.
"The Guozijian didn't give any benefits?" Yi Niang was a little dissatisfied, the atmosphere was not there, and she was stingy.
"Don't despise the country." Gentleman Cao said in a deep voice; "How many students have been out of Guozijian over the years? said that he would not form a party, but when the time really came, he shouted......"
"But they swore not to form a party." Yi Niang thought it was a bad idea.
Cao Ying smiled very gentlemanly, "Lang Jun is like a fish in water in the Guozi Prison, if he can make good friends with the Guozi Prison, what kind of party...... Helping oneself is also called forming a party? β
"Lang Jun, there are guests."
The old thief lived a chic life alone in the front yard, and by the way, he was a part-time protΓ©gΓ©.
Yang Xuan went out and asked, "Who?" The old thief was beside him and whispered, "That man is bald." β
Baldness?
Yang Xuan arrived in the front yard and smiled when he saw that it was Tang Xiaonian, "Tang Lang is rare." β
"Let's call Old Don." Tang Xiaonian glanced at the old thief, the old thief looked at Yang Xuan, and Yang Xuan nodded before avoiding it.
Tang Xiaonian said in a low voice: "Someone in the county has a bad idea, saying that there are thieves outside the city, and their whereabouts are difficult to find, so let the bad people investigate." β
"Thieves outside the city?"
Yang Xuan was surprised, "What about Jin Wuwei?" β
Tang Xiaonian scratched his head with a wry smile, and a few long hairs fell, "You just slapped Vice General Jin Wuwei Zhou, do you think it's appropriate?" β
"Those thieves have been attacked several times recently, and they have been ruthless, and they have never been caught. You've been in the limelight lately, and some people can't get used to it. Tang Xiaonian looked at the old thief not far away, and secretly claimed that Xu Xu kept this distance very well, and he could make a move at any time, and he could ensure that he couldn't hear what was being said clearly.
"Sooner or later." Yang Xuan said: "Thank you. β
On the second day, as soon as Yang Xuan arrived at the county party, he was called by the county governor Qiu Province.
Qiu Xing's expression was flat, and the standard posture of the senior official to his subordinates was reserved and looked down.
"There are thieves outside the city who often rob passing merchants, and yesterday someone was robbed and killed again, this matter is very important, you can take the bad people to hunt down."
"Yes." Yang Xuan was very refreshing.
Shangguan smashed a brick down, and you can only continue.
Of course, if you have the ability to connect the bricks and throw them back, that's your pen.
There was a hint of ridicule in Qiu Sheng's eyes, "The matter is urgent, the Ming Mansion is angry, and he gave you five days, and the old man is good at the Ming Mansion and has added two days to you." β
Didn't Huang Wenzun say ten days, and you strongly changed it to seven days? Yang Xuan was silent.
He had just taken over the matter, and he had to investigate and figure it out before he could pursue it...... On the seventh day, Tang Xiaonian said yesterday that the gang of thieves had been on the loose for a long time, and no one was in a hurry.
It's a pit.
Watching Yang Xuan walk out of the duty room, Qiu Xingxing seemed to see his body fall into the pit violently.
A soft voice came out of his mouth, "Bang! β
β¦β¦
"Seven days? Isn't this a pit man? Wen Xinshu was furious, "Yang Shuai, that gang of thieves is slippery and ruthless, the bad people in Chang'an County have been there, but no one has been able to help them." We're just three of us......"
"I'll bring a few people to help." Yang Xuan soothed.
Zhao Guolin rubbed the horse lance, "This is a pit, but Yang Shuai has to jump." β
The second day, outside the city.
Zhao Guolin and Wen Xinshu looked at the two men and one woman behind Yang Xuan and wondered.
"My cousin is bored at home and comes out for a walk." Yang Xuan forcibly explained.
Wen Xinshu said: "That person looks gentle and elegant, and he is kind of bearing. β
Cao Ying had the air of a decent man and a gentleman, and bowed slightly, "The old man is Lang Jun's husband, who has studied for many years, and has his own splendid chest. β
"What do you mean?" Wen Xinshu was puzzled.
Zhao Guolin carried the horse lance, "He can come up with ideas." β
The rest of the old thieves were ignored by them.
All the way out of the city, to a road more than ten miles outside the city, there are already local villages waiting.
Muramasa pointed to the forest on the side and introduced the situation, "Yesterday, a traveler passed by here, and the gang of thieves rushed out and killed two ......."
Yang Xuan asked, "Who are those two?" β
Later, Cao Ying sighed: "I'm afraid it's a nobleman, so this pit will be a big deal." β
"No, it won't." Yi Niang shook her head.
Muramasa smiled bitterly, "At that time, there were many officials, and the old man heard about it...... One of them was King Zhen's brother-in-law. β
Later, Cao Ying explained, "It is King Zhen's brother-in-law." β
"Shut up!" Yi Niang's eyes had a touch of sadness.
Yang Xuan didn't expect that he and his half-brother Zhenwang Li Xin would be in contact with each other in this way.
As soon as the village was leaving, Yang Xuan instructed: "Lao Zhao took Wen Xinshu to check the woods on both sides, and those thieves must have left some traces." β
The two went.
Cao Ying analyzed: "Lang Jun, Your Majesty attaches great importance to King Zhen and King Yong. β
Paying attention to the two words, he accentuated his tone, "If you can't find it within seven days, the thunder is coming." β
In order to show his love for his two cousins, the emperor could make Yang Xuan and others who handled this matter unlucky with a casual word.
"What should I do?" Yi Niang broke the silence.
Yang Xuan touched his chin, "This group of thieves has been haunting the neighborhood recently, specializing in robbing passing merchants, indicating that they have a stronghold nearby. β
Cao Ying nodded, "But there are many villages around, how can you tell where they are?" β
The old thief Jia Ren raised his hand - this is taught by Yang Xuan.
"Say." Yang Xuan nodded.
Jia Ren said: "Lang Jun, ordinary thieves don't stare at one place and do something. β
You can't point to a sheep and pull wool.
"Get a shot and change places." Yang Xuan nodded, "Go on." β
As a leader, he must concentrate the wisdom of his command for his own use.
"But this group of people are all starting on this road, in front and behind, just find a random lot and stare at the passing business travelers......" The old thief said very firmly: "Judging from the old man's experience, they are either too confident, or they are stupid as pigs." β
Yi Niang asked, "What experience do you have?" β
For the first time, there was a look of confidence in the old thief's empty eyes, "The experience of being a thief." β
Cao Ying squatted there, "Lang Jun, the stupid thief is a meritorious, not to mention Jin Wuwei and bad people, the local village will make meritorious contributions with strength, where can we get it." β
Yang Xuan nodded, "Fangcai Village is saying that the bad people in Chang'an County have checked in the surrounding villages, but they have found nothing, they are all good people, there are no thieves, and they are honest and messy." β
"Thieves can't." Cao Ying wants to show her side as a think tank, "Thieves from other places are committing crimes back and forth like this, and there is a great possibility of being found on the road." Since they are smart, they naturally don't do such stupid things. β
"Yang Shuai." Zhao Guolin and Wen Xinshu are back.
"Did you find anything?" Yang Xuan was squatting, got up and asked.
Zhao Guolin carried the horse lance and pointed at Wen Xinshu, "It's just some." β
Yi Niang turned her back, Cao Ying smiled, but her lips trembled.
Wen Xinshu was holding the leaves in both hands, and the leaves were ......
"It's been a while." Zhao Guolin said very seriously.
These dry stools come in all sizes and shapes.
Yang Xuan glanced at it, "Since we have ruled out that the thief is running around to commit crimes......
"Wandering crimes...... Very incisive. "The wise man sends the faithful sycophant.
Will this think-tank become a minister in the future?
And then slap my ass all day?
Yang Xuan thought of those ministers in the TV series, then shook his head, put aside those inexplicable characters, and said: "Since this is the case, then our only way out is still in the surroundings." β
Even Yi Niang understood, "In other words, the murderer is in the nearby village." β
"Yes." Yang Xuan decided to go home and watch more of those serials, "Our only way is to investigate." β
In the afternoon, under the sunset, Yang Xuan entered Chang'an City.
"How?" Tang Xiaonian was waiting for him.
"It was a terrible day, nothing was found." Wen Xinshu replied instead of Yang Xuan, and habitually glanced at the top of Tang Xiaonian's head.
"Huh! Old Don has more hair? Wen Xinshu smiled: "Congratulations." β
"Ahem!" Tang Xiaonian said reservedly: "Recently, I have been in good health. β
"I'm hungry, I'm tired, hurry home." The crowd dispersed.
Tang Xiaonian got on the horse and sighed: "It's not easy to live. β
The wind blew softly, and the long hair on the top of Tang Xiaonian's head spread out in all directions.
He quickly reached out and pulled his loose hair back to the top of his head, covering it with a turban, and then, confidence returned.
Yang Xuan glanced at it and asked, "Vermilion Bird." β
"I'm here."
"It's better to have a shaved head than a Mediterranean hairstyle, and I bet no one in this world can handle it."
"Yes."
"Who?"
"Jason Da."
On the first day, nothing was found.
On the second day, we set off again.
When I arrived at a village, the village was out to greet me.
"Who's been out a lot lately?"
Yang Xuan changed the question.
This question has been asked countless times by the village, and he said familiarly: "There are many people who go out to farm, but the land in the village is all in one place, and you can see when you look up, and no one can run away to be a thief." β
Even Cao Ying looked disappointed.
Jia Ren interjected, "What about the others?" Except for those who farm. β
Cao Ying felt that this person was rude to interject, so she frowned and was slightly angry, and Yi Niang said in a low voice: "He is much better at being a thief than you are at being a think tank." β
Muramasa said: "Yes, there are old people in the village who like to go out, and their children and grandchildren take turns to accompany them, drive ox carts, bring wine and food, and come back happily in the afternoon." Ay! The old man looked envious, and he didn't know if he could do so in a few years. β
Yang Xuan's heart moved slightly, and he asked, "Which one?" β
The roster was in Cao Ying's hand, and the key points were crossed, and Wen Yan looked down, "Liao family." β
β¦β¦
Liao's house is in the west of the village, and it is very convenient to enter and exit.
The rules of Datang are that parents do not separate their families and do not divide their property. Liao Hutou is in his early sixties, and the family is very lively.
A pair of young eyes peered out through the crack in the door, and then they withdrew their gaze and turned around.
Behind him, more than 20 men, women, and children stood.
Liao Bao'er said predictively: "How many times, no one can find out, be calm!" β
On the third day, it was the same.
Day 4.
Day 5.
Day 6......
Travelers appeared on the official road.
A blind man with a blank look and a bamboo pole in his hand.
A middle-aged man who seems to be weak.
The blind man rode a horse, the middle-aged man led, and the two were well dressed.
In the woods on the side.
Liao Bao'er turned to her grandfather Liao Hutou and said: "That upright-looking old guy will definitely help, remember to be ruthless and finish him off at once." As for the blind, throw it aside. β
Liao Hutou is sixty years old and slightly fat. He nodded vigorously, his eyes more fierce, "Let's go." β
Then the two of them went out.
Poof!
Liao Hu's head fell under the scorching sun.
"Awen!"
The mournful cry was like a cuckoo crying blood.
"What's wrong with you? Someone's coming! β
