Zhu Yixiang just followed Jin Yiwei's horse butt back to the Qianhu Office, and he collapsed on the kang and couldn't move, this time he seemed to have finished a lifetime of running, and a pair of legs were afraid to be wasted. But before he had rested for a quarter of an hour, Lu Yan's dog legs came over and shouted to him, "Hey, Zhuyi Lane, Lord Qianhu wants to see you!" ”

Zhu Yixiang shouted angrily: "No! My leg hurts! ”

"Hey! You're a fat kid, aren't you? I'm afraid it's tickling! The man raised his whip!

Zhu Yixiang hurriedly got up from the kang in fright, and said with a warm face: "Isn't this just a joke, my lord, don't be angry, my lord wants to see me, that's the blessing I cultivated in my last life!" It's too late to be grateful, how can you not see it! ”

"Humph!" The brocade guard sneered, "What? Leg doesn't hurt anymore? ”

"Lord Qianhu wants to see me, don't say that my leg hurts, even if I'm dying, I have to climb in front of Lord Qianhu!"

The man cursed secretly, "Thick-skinned enough!" He said, "Come with me!" ”

Zhu Yixiang felt that the bones in his body were about to fall apart, but helplessly, the third watch of the king of Hades called, he never dared to delay until the fifth watch, so he had to walk in front of Lu Yan, still with a flattering face, "I don't know if the adults of Qianhu are looking for the little one, do you have any instructions?" ”

Lu Yan handed Zhu Yixiang a case file and said: "This is the government's case file on this robbery, take a look, according to the investigation of the secret guards, the last post station where the officers and soldiers who escorted the military pay rested was the Fengle County Post Station, although there were several roadside tea shops on the way out of Fengle County, but the officers and soldiers did not rest!"

Zhu Yixiang looked at the case file of the government, and it was really tight, and he couldn't find any mistakes, but it was useless. "My lord, do you mean that those officers and soldiers were poisoned in the post station in Fengle County? That's an official station, it shouldn't be! ”

Lu Yan looked at him with an unfathomable expression, he was covered in hair, and then said, "You are ready to prepare, come with me to investigate!" ”

As soon as he heard that he was going out, Zhu Yixiang felt that the cracks in his bones hurt, and said: "My lord is so wise and martial, you can go early and return early, a waste snack like me, go out with you, I am really afraid of dragging you down, I am waiting for your triumphant return in this thousand households......" Zhu Yixiang really didn't want to move, but as soon as he saw Lu Yan's squinted phoenix eyes, he swallowed the words back into his stomach, swallowed his saliva, and carefully discussed: "Lord Qianhu, I don't think it's early today, Why don't we leave early tomorrow morning? ”

Lu Yanfeng squinted at him, and said gloomily: "Are you teaching me how to do things again?" ”

Zhu Yixiang was frightened, and hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, how can the villain have this kind of courage, let alone this kind of insight, what do you say yes, adult, you say to the east, the villain will never dare to go west, your decision is wise and martial, the villain can't catch up with eight horses......"

Although Lu Yan was not angry, he was also comfortable when he was patted by his horse, "It's good to know, the horse is ready, then let's go!" ”

Zhu Yixiang has neither the courage nor the right to refuse, so he can only follow behind Lu Yan with a spring breeze on his face, and be a good lackey in his duty!

The only fortunate thing is that Lu Yan was merciful this time and did not let him run out, but also gave him a horse, but it was just ...... Zhu Yixiang tried three times, but he couldn't climb on horseback!

That's embarrassing! More than 10 brocade guards around him and more than 20 eyes looked at him, he had a big red face, he usually watched others riding high-headed horses and swaggering through the city, that was majestic can no longer be majestic, he always imagined that one day he would be able to ride the horses and rivers and lakes, wandering the world, he never thought of the first obstacle that prevented him from realizing his dreams, he actually couldn't step on the horse!

Zhu Yixiang patted the horse's neck and discussed with the horse brother who looked very docile: "Brother, you give me face today, and I will pluck the most tender grass from the river for you another day to treat you?" ”

It's a pity that he doesn't understand the language of the horse, and he can't understand his request, and when Zhu Yixiang tries to climb on him for the fourth time, the horse takes two steps forward and dodges away!

"Hey...... You're so naughty, you horse......"

When Zhu Yixiang tried to climb on horseback for the fifth time, Lu Yan drove him up immediately, grabbed the back of his coat, and lifted him to his horse like a sack.

"Let's go!" Lu Yan gave an order, Zhu Yixiang was belly down, hanging on horseback before he came to his senses, a group of people had already gone dozens of feet away, "Ahhh

In the afternoon, they set off and ran wildly all the way, and in the evening, they arrived at the boundary of Fengle County, but when they reached less than two miles from the post station, they saw a fire in front of them. When they arrived at the post station, the post station had been completely submerged in the fire, a large group of people outside the post station carried buckets to put out the fire, and the big-bellied magistrate rushed over tremblingly with the support of a group of officials, looking at the fire and sighing: "What's going on?" What's going on? Fire...... Hurry up and put out the fire......"

The fire burned all night, the people who carried the water saw that the post station could not be saved, and they could only do their best, trying not to let the flames spread to other places around, when the day was about to dawn, the fire was smaller, and the whole post station turned into a piece of ashes, and there were three charred corpses in the ashes, and according to the things they were wearing, it was inferred that it might be the post man of the post station and the two errand officers inside.

Originally, the weather in September was still cold at night, but Lu Yan and the other brocade guards roasted the fire outside the post station all night, but it was also warm, and Zhu Yixiang was even more excessive.

It wasn't until he heard the rooster crowing that he turned over, and in a daze, he heard someone howling in his ear, and said in his heart Who is so depressed, and when he opened his eyes, he found that it was the fat Zhixian who was kneeling in front of Lu Yan and howling!

"Lord Shangcha, this is really an accident, I have sent someone to check, it is speculated that it may be that the post or the servants were careless, and overturned the candlestick to cause this tragedy, this matter is considered to be poorly managed, and the lower officials are responsible, fortunately, there are no officials living in the post station today......"

"Nonsense!" Zhu Yixiang got up from the ground, yawned and said: "I smelled a lot of wine last night two miles away, this post station comes and goes to receive all the officials of the imperial court, can there be no measures to prevent water from going away?" What if it really accidentally knocked over the candlestick, to the point where the fire burned? ”

Fat Zhixian hurriedly said: "There are indeed some drinks hidden in the cellar of the post station, which are all prepared for the court officials who come and go!" The wine you smell should be the wine in the cellar! "Now that it is an eventful season, the military salary of 100,000 taels has just been robbed, and 200 officers and soldiers have died in Huangquan, and this person in front of him is the terrifying blood Yama Luo in the brocade guard, he is really afraid that if something happens, then his head will not be saved!

Zhu Yixiang sneered and said, "Then you will check the three corpses and see if they were burned alive, or if they were burned like this after they died?" ”

Fat Zhixian said angrily: "What you said is light, people are burned like this, how can you check?" ”

"Oh, the eight strands of literature are not shallow! The selected ones are all nerds who can only memorize the Four Books and the Five Classics, the Southern Song Dynasty Song Ci's "Record of Clearing Grievances", the county master, you shouldn't have read it, right? If a person is burned alive, he will inhale a lot of cigarettes, and there will be soot in his throat. If he was dead before he was burned, then he didn't have to breathe, and there would naturally be no soot in his throat! County master, you don't even know this, how did you become an official? ”

When Zhu Yixiang just got up, he was wearing Lu Yan's big coat, Fat Zhixian thought that he was also a Jinyiwei, and he spoke politely, and when he took off the big coat, he found that this person was dressed in coarse linen clothes, and he was not wearing a flying fish suit, not a Jinyi guard, and he naturally did not need to be polite when he spoke. said in an official tone: "This official is a Jinshi born in the two lists, and what he has learned is a knowledge that has been applied to the world, and it is not a pretense, what kind of "Clearing Grievances" is you, what is it, and you should slander the court?" ”

Zhu Yixiang is naturally the people do not fight with the officials, and they will not lose a piece of meat if they are counted out in two sentences, and they are very aware of the current affairs and shut up, but Lu Yan is a master who can't rub sand in his eyes, and this magistrate wants to put this matter on the excuse of accidentally overturning the oil lamp, so he said angrily: "He is nothing, but as the head of a county, you are still confused when such a major event occurs in the territory under your jurisdiction, I think you are wearing this Wusha to the end!" ”

Borrowing the ten guts of Fat Zhixian County, he didn't dare to talk back to Lord Jinyi Wei Qianhu, and he was busy with him: "Yes, they are all the lower officials who are confused, and the lower officials will definitely do their best to find out the truth......"

Lu Yan sneered, looked at Fat Zhixian and said, "Lord Zhixian knows how I went from an ordinary small flag to a thousand households in six years?" ”

Fat Zhixian oily and tender head with beads of sweat the size of beans fell down, "The lower officials are dull, please also ask the upper authorities to teach!" ”

"Thank you for that!"

Fat Zhixian wiped the sweat on his head and said, "Thank you for the compliment, this is what the lower officials should do!" When Fat Zhixian heard Lu Yan say this, he thought that he had helped him in some place before, although he didn't remember it, but since he was kind to him, he naturally wouldn't embarrass himself, so he calmed down a little.

But I didn't think about it, and then I heard Lu Yan say: "Thanks to the imperial court with your group of corpses wrapped in wine bags and rice bags, I have been promoted all the way here!" ”

Fat Zhixian suddenly felt that his neck was cold!
