Tang Yun stood in the yellow sand under the scorching sun, looking at the eagle's beak sand dunes in the distance, he felt that this place was somewhat familiar.

Walking forward, I could vaguely see a group of people standing under the sand dunes. In front of them lay a pile of broken flags, and the Aoki flag, a symbol of the brave rider of the desert, was trampled under the dust.

For the Wolf Hunters, it is such a flag that measures their military exploits. Originally, it was the head of the head, but later there were too many people killed, and it was actually very troublesome for one or two generals to have their heads on their waists, and it didn't take long for them to attract flies. But the battle flag will not, the loyal warriors of the Northern Wilderness will protect the battle flag with their lives, and would rather die the last person in battle, which saves the wolf hunter a lot of trouble.

That group of people didn't care about the flag, they were looking for good things from the Northern Wilderness military camp.

Beef jerky, wine, these provisions, only the wolf hunter has a chance to grab. The days of the front combat army are the hardest, and good things are often only available to the logistics army in the rear.

This is a rare pastime after the end of a major war.

Tang Yun saw a lot of acquaintances, and he wanted to walk over, but found that his legs couldn't move as if they were filled with lead. His lips cracked open because of dryness, and Tang Yun felt that his voice was very hoarse, and he couldn't even speak.

It wasn't until Tang Yun realized that this was a dream that he smiled bitterly in his heart.

The sky was spinning, and in a trance, there seemed to be a person beside him. Tang Yun was shocked, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to the right side, but this time he grabbed a void.

"How can you put the knife next to the bed when you sleep, and you are not afraid of it."

It was Ah Qiao's voice, Tang Yun opened his somewhat hazy eyes, and found a knife holder on the table at the end of the bed, on which his tiger head knife was placed.

Ah Qiao had already soaked the towel and wiped Tang Yun's face. This made Tang Yun feel very uncomfortable, now he didn't have the slightest consciousness as a member of the imperial court, whether it was washing his face or dressing, he had always done it himself.

Tang Yun snatched the towel and walked to the basin to wash his face. Ah Qiao was stunned for a moment, and then turned out a three-grade military attache uniform for him from behind him.

"Public service?"

"Your dress yesterday smelled of wine, and I washed it for you. I just sent someone from your house. Ah Qiao helped Tang Yun put on a purple straight-sleeved robe, and a hideous unicorn was embroidered on it.

Tang Yun didn't often wear such official uniforms, so he felt a little uncomfortable.

"Today is a rest." Tang Yun let Ah Qiao toss, but he still reminded him.

Ah Qiao said: "I'm going to Sixing Temple in a while, you know that place, it's better to look majestic in official clothes." ”

……

Last night, Xia Guanshang Shu Yang Yi was killed at home.

According to Yang Yi's family, Yang Yi was fine when he came home last night, but he died suddenly and tragically this morning.

Returning home with Yang Yi was also an Oiran from Fengluan Pavilion, and now that the Oiran has disappeared, she is naturally the most suspicious. Si Xing Temple had already checked the details of this Oiran, but found that this Oiran was adopted by Fengluan Pavilion when he was very young, and he didn't know anything about his previous experience.

Whether he was killed by vengeance or instructed by someone else is unknown. However, it is worth noting that before Yang Yi died, he had a dispute with King Yan in Fengluan Pavilion.

This still has to be checked anyway, His Royal Highness King Yan has a noble status, and Si Xing Temple is not qualified to personally send someone to call King Yan over, so he had to call Tang Yun.

"Yang Yi is dead?" Tang Yun frowned, although he looked down on Yang Yi, he would not kill him.

Ah Qiao said: "Maybe Miss Rudong can't stand the clutches of the old guy, so it's good to kill it, the scourge of the province." ”

Last night, Rudong was forcibly taken captive by Yang Yi.

If it was in the past, he wouldn't dare to lend Yang Yi a few guts. As long as King Yan uses the Imperial History Terrace, countless Imperial History Strongmen can drown Yang Yi. But now, even if Yu Shi Zhongcheng asks, Yang Yi can fool the past at will. He was originally a martial artist, and he caught a Qinglou woman to go home, although his reputation was not very good, but it did not have much impact.

Outside the door, the carriage was already waiting.

As soon as Tang Yun stepped into the carriage, Ah Qiao said to him: "Your Highness has returned home, the Son of Heaven's grounding order has not yet passed, and it is inevitable that it will not be good to go out during the day." However, His Royal Highness has already said that if there is something difficult for you in Sixing Temple, he will come forward to settle it. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, for me." Tang Yun entered the carriage, the curtain cut off everything outside, and his heart had already begun to think of countermeasures.

……

Si Xing Temple is located in the west of the imperial city, next to the Guangyi Gate.

On weekdays, few people pass by in this place, a gloomy Yamen house, and the two lions and elephants standing in front of the door are magnificent.

In the former Qin Dynasty, there was Dali Temple, which was in charge of the review of criminal and prison cases. At that time, major cases all needed to be tried by the three divisions of Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. However, after the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Dali Temple was renamed Sixing Temple, and it had the power to review and punish some major cases of middle and senior officials.

In this regard, because the Qiuguan Yamen only has the right to punish petty officials and civilians below the seventh rank, it is inferior to Sixing Temple in terms of power.

The reception of Tang Yun was Wan Jinhai, Shaoqing of Si Xing Temple, and he told Tang Yun apologetically that today is Xiu Mu, and Si Xing Si Qing is at home with his mother-in-law and children.

Tang Yun didn't think much of Wan Jinhai's words, Xia Guanshang Shu was killed, if Xing Siqing was not in a hurry for such a big case, then he really had a big heart.

Obviously, Tang Yun has recently gotten close to King Yan, and it is someone from King Liang's lineage who died. Si Xing Siqing obviously regarded this as a party struggle and was unwilling to get involved in it.

Wan Jinhai seems to be a very loyal middle-aged man, but Tang Yun always feels that there is a trace of cunning hidden under this honest face.

"Lord Tang, someone has already been sent from the yamen to see it this morning. The housekeeper of the Yang Mansion said that Yang Shangshu had nothing abnormal after returning home, and he didn't see anyone dead until he got up early the next morning. This also just shows that Yang Shangshu's death and His Royal Highness have nothing to do with you, Lord Tang. Hehe, inviting adults to come this time is just a routine, don't be surprised by Lord Tang. ”

When Wan Jinhai smiled, a trace of wrinkles appeared on his face, and he looked like a kind person.

Of course, this is an illusion, and someone who can be an official in a yamen like Sixing Temple will not be a good person after all.

A small official came over to inspect the tea, Tang Yun grinded the edge of the teacup with his hand, and said, "Lord Wan, if there is anything, you can say it directly." Today's rest, the official is still going to rest in the house for a while. ”

"This is natural, Xia Guan just wants to ask, what did Yang Shangshu say to you at that time?"

"What do you mean?"

"After His Royal Highness King Yan left, Lord Tang seemed to have said something to Yang Shangshu. This one...... Let's try the case in Si Xingsi, this aspect of the official document has to be done, Lord Tang tried to think about it, and told us what he said, hehe, let's make the document more beautiful. ”

Tang Yun's eyes froze: "Do you suspect that I designed to kill Yang Yi?" ”

Seeing that Wan Jinhai was about to speak with a smile, Tang Yun waved his hand and said: "I spent all night in Fengluan Pavilion yesterday, you suspect me of killing people with a knife, then tell the evidence, I don't have time to go around in circles with you." ”

The smile on Wan Jinhai's face did not decrease: "Okay, then I'll say it directly." I have heard for a long time that Lord Tang came from the Mobei front line and is proficient in swordsmanship. The famous shadow knife technique in Mobei back then, this sword technique wants to come to Lord Tang will also know, right? ”
