Mo Junyang's voice was hoarse, there were no ups and downs, but it could inexplicably make people want to listen to his voice seriously.

I only heard him tell me: "The official said that the place where the official mission was wiped out was not the place where they originally planned to ambush. ”

That's it.

Shi Qingxue was stunned, didn't understand, and subconsciously replied: "Of course!" If the official wants to chase and kill the rogue, there will definitely be a movement. How can it be the same as the projected location? ”

"You haven't been to the site, so it's probably not very clear. The place where the corpses were displayed was a canyon, and all the corpses lay on the bottom of the valley, with no traces of blood or fighting, only one corpse. ”

Mo Junyang has already said this before.

It's weird, it's like someone has completely cleaned up the scene.

It is not easy to do this, but it is not impossible.

But when Mo Junyang mentioned that the scene was in a canyon, Shi Qingxue immediately reacted.

There is only one road in front of and behind the canyon, and there are no hidden hiding spots here.

Would a normal person set up an ambush here?

She won't anyway.

She would only set fire to the front and back, or throw boulders down the hill and kill people.

Only these two options can win more with less.

It's like when she eliminated Mo Junhao.

But both of these methods are only suitable for the battlefield, and they will definitely not be used for looting.

First, this method requires a lot of manpower and material resources, at least a civil grass force cannot complete it;

Second, the one who set fire to the stone destroyed the goods transported by the government, and robbed a ghost!

As Mo Junyang's words fell, Shi Qingxue also fell into deep thought.

She faintly had a vague conjecture in her heart, and it was difficult to say for a while, so she had to continue to ask Mo Junyang: "What else did he say?" ”

Mo Junyang shook his head, "No, he can't say anything." At that time, he was probably scared half to death, and he was always glad that he took leave that day and did not participate in the action.

But...... Whether it was really that good luck, or if there was something else, is unknown. ”

Shi Qingxue looked at Mo Junyang curiously, thinking that his statement was very interesting.

"What do you mean by something else? What other reasons do you think there are? ”

Mo Junyang shrugged, "I don't know, it's just that after this, the rumors that the official road is haunted have been rampant, and there are fewer and fewer people who dare to take the official road after that." ”

He paused and asked Shi Qingxue: "What do you think of this coincidence?" ”

Shi Qingxue pouted, "It's not good." But he shouldn't be a rogue, right?

There are so many people, he is the only one who escaped, you will definitely investigate all the eighteen generations of his ancestors.

The target is so flamboyant, not suitable for undercover. ”

Mo Junyang did not deny Shi Qingxue's statement, "The Criminal Department, Kyoto Prefecture, and even the emperor and I have sent people to investigate this official. There really was no suspicious or unusual place. ”

Shi Qingxue smiled mischievously and said in a mocking tone: "Is it particularly stupid?" ”

Mo Junyang was stunned.

"What if that's the intention of the robbers?" Shi Qingxue's expression suddenly became serious.

Mo Junyang raised his eyebrows slightly, "What intention?" ”

"Let the people believe that the official road is haunted, so that they no longer dare to walk on the official road."

Shi Qingxue's voice was very slow, as if she had racked her brains to integrate the complicated thoughts in her mind.

So little by little, I can only say, "If that's the reason, then a lot of things can make sense."

You think! If it really is annihilated...... Well, if the whole army is really wiped out, it can only mean a 'miserable' word, and there will definitely be no rumors of ghosts and ghosts.

Even in order to prevent panic among the people – as it is now – the government would not let the tragedy come to light. So, in order to achieve the current effect, there must be a living person.

This person, first, can't be too smart and not easy to use; Second, you cannot be present at the scene in person, so as not to reveal the truth; Third, it can't be big, and it's not easy to control.

According to the official you mentioned, he fully meets the above three requirements. Then, the theory of ghosts and gods really spread among the common people. ”

Qu Yuexuan and the other three had been listening to the conversation between the two silently.

Hearing this, Qu Yuexuan finally couldn't help but interject, "Is it possible that it is really a ghost or a god?"

After all, judging from the information we have so far, it doesn't seem like something that people can do.

Whether it is the cleaning of blood stains or the restoration of the crime scene, even the top killers cannot restore the scene to the state before the killing. ”

At this point, Qu Yuexuan thinks she has a lot of right to speak.

Shi Qingxue was silent for a moment when she heard this, and then asked calmly: "The repair scene can't be done, but what if it is not the scene of murder and extortion at all?" ”

As soon as these words came out, they were shocked.

Qu Yuexuan and the others all glared at Shi Qingxue with surprised eyes.

Even Mo Junyang looked at it.

Shi Qingxue didn't feel that she had said anything big, but explained with a natural face: "Think about it, is it very possible what I said?" Even Ah Xuan said that it was impossible to restore the scene, and Jun Yang also said just now that the place where the entire army of the official mission was destroyed was different from the ambush location. That said, there is another possibility.

That is, after someone kills people somewhere now, they clean up the body and move it to the current location, and then make outsiders mistakenly think that the current location is the scene of the killing. ”

After Qu Yuexuan listened to Shi Qingxue's eloquent talk, the whole person was stunned, and she didn't seem to have come to her senses.

After a while, he held back a sentence: "Just, even if what you say makes sense." Then you say, kill people and kill people, why do they do everything possible to transfer the body so that people can mistakenly identify the scene?

What's in it for them, it can't be just for fun! ”

This point is also bothering Shi Qingxue.

She frowned, and sorted out her thoughts again before she said with difficulty: "Perhaps, it is to create the theory of ghosts and gods that appear today; Perhaps, it is the old suspicion, or perhaps, the real murder scene is something special to them. ”

"What's special?" Qu Yuexuan asked.

Shi Qingxue rolled her eyes: If she knew everything, would she still be so entangled?

"Ahem!" Qu Yuexuan also seemed to realize that he was a little strong, and coughed embarrassedly twice.

turned to look at Mo Junyang, who had not spoken much, and asked, "Junyang, what do you think about this?" ”

Today, Mo Junyang came here to really come for that group of rogues, but Shi Qingxue's appearance was a bit unexpected to him.

But now after listening to Shi Qingxue's words, Qu Yuexuan felt as if she had understood her master's intentions.

Their princess's head is so flexible, it would be a waste if they didn't make good use of it.

At least before that, he and several of his subordinates had no clue, but now that Shi Qingxue dialed it a little, he suddenly became a little enlightened.

No matter how unbelievable Shi Qingxue's explanation is.

Mo Junyang looked at Qu Yuexuan, and then at Shi Qingxue, who was looking at him, and said with a smile: "Now we have too few clues. I'm afraid I'll have to go back to the scene to see it. ”

"Okay! Then I'll arrange for people right away, and I can leave tomorrow. Qu Yuexuan said immediately.

After training for so long, he always had to lead his people out for a walk, only to know if it was a mule or a horse!

Mo Junyang came here to use Qu Yuexuan's people, and he had no objections at the moment, just a few words and let the others go down first.

Shi Qingxue sat on the side, was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Is there anything else suspicious, you didn't tell me?" ”

Mo Junyang pursed his lips, nodded, and replied, "That's right." There is another thing that is very strange. ”

After being seen by Shi Qingxue, Mo Junyang didn't hide it anymore, and said in detail: "Generally, grass robbers kill people and sell more goods, just to get rich, and they will definitely not go to great lengths to clean up the scene." And the idea of attacking the government one after another, isn't it afraid that the imperial court will send troops to eliminate them?

I couldn't figure this out no matter how I thought about it, so I went to check the government's transportation records, and guess what it was that was transported to the Northland by the government? ”

Shi Qingxue was thrown into a big question again, but she didn't feel unhappy, but followed Mo Junyang's thoughts.

"The Northland is barren and lacks food, and it is generally necessary to transport grain to the Northland. And things as heavy as grain are generally taken by water, but there are no canals in the north, so they can only take dry roads.

The official road is flat and spacious, suitable for heavy transportation, but it is the best choice for transporting grain. ”

Shi Qingxue's explanation is well-organized, and she is almost infinitely close to the truth.

However, Mo Junyang shook his head and said, "Your analysis is very reasonable, even the official customs clearance document recorded on the official government is to transport official food. ”

Mo Junyang will say this, which means that it is not actually official food that is being transported.

"Actually......"

"Official silver!"

"What?" Shi Qingxue stood up from her seat in shock.

It is not impossible for the official bank to walk on the official road, but unlike the ordinary transportation of goods, the transportation of the official bank will be more cautious.

But that's not the point.

Generally speaking, after collecting taxes, the tax money is minted into official silver, and a part of it is kept for local expenses, and the rest is handed over to the Kyoto National Treasury.

Unless there is a catastrophe or war, or there is a major project that needs to be built, it is rare for official money to be shipped from Kyoto.

Now is the period of spring break and respite, there are no major disasters, no large-scale construction, and no war with foreign countries.

Why do you suddenly have to send official money to other places?

It's so unreasonable!

Mo Junyang seemed to see Shi Qingxue's doubts, and added slowly, "What's even more unreasonable is that there are a lot of things transported out of Kyoto, and official silver is not the only one, but these more than ten robberies are all official silver." ”

Shi Qingxue felt that her eyes were about to fall.

It took a long time for her to find her voice and ask dryly, "Your Majesty, does he know about this?" ”
