"Silly girl, the master is embarrassed in his heart, not only did he not help you at all, but he also blamed you for so many years. I regret it! Old man Xue sighed reproachfully.

Seeing that the two of them began to cry and cry sadly, Baili Jiu hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "Do you have a deep master-apprentice relationship later, now so many of us are waiting for the wine and food to eat?" ”

Yuan Bao also smiled on the side, and rubbed his hands in a hurry: "We haven't eaten for three meals, and now the empty city plan is singing happily." ”

Old man Xue liked Baili Jiu very much, and happily rolled up his sleeves: "It's been a long time since I showed my skills, let you taste my strange chef Xue's skills!" ”

Old man Xue's family was alone, and the things were not complete, and the villagers around him were enthusiastic, so they immediately went home to pick up the dishes, bamboo chopsticks, and dried vegetables and mushrooms and sent them over. Old man Xue was lost and recovered, and he was proud in his heart, and insisted on leaving a few good villagers to eat.

The meal was ready, everyone sat down, the coarse porcelain bowl was filled with wine, at first in front of Bailijiu and Nuoya, it was respectful, quite cramped, a few bowls of wine were down, Bailijiu was easy to joke about, and everyone talked more, and the topic somehow revolved around Huang Dexing.

One of the mountain people went into the mountains to collect mushrooms and dried them and sent them to the restaurant, and he was the most angry: "Huang Dexing's move has cut off the way of life for many people in Handan City. ”

"I saw those family members in his house, all of them are rabble, they have no ability, they can only bark and bully people. Why is it that everyone swallows their anger, is it possible that the government is blatantly protecting it? Noah asked curiously.

"Where? Do you know that Huang Dexing also has a group of thugs under his hands, all of whom are strong in martial arts, fly off the wall, and are ruthless, say that if you kill someone, you will kill people, and you will play some ruthless things, so that you have no evidence of guilt, you can only suffer losses, who dares to provoke? A villager chimed in.

Nuoya remembered that day, Huang Dexing chased himself on the mountain road, and asked loudly: "I have also fought those people, and their skills are really good, how many of them are there?" ”

The villagers shook their heads: "How many people?" I'm afraid it's the sea. ”

"How so?" Bailijiu immediately asked out loud.

"Huang Dexing not only collects grain in Handan City every year, but also hears that a large amount of grain will be transported from other places during the wheat harvest and autumn harvest."

His words were immediately refuted by another person: "The grain was not transported to Hanshan, I heard that all of it was transported away, and only a small part was left. That must have been resold, otherwise where did he get all this silver to buy grain? ”

There is no doubt that if there are weapons, there must be bandits, and if there are bandits, they will inevitably need food and grass. It seems that Huang Dexing played a pivotal role in this, and was also in charge of the purchase of grain and grass. If you can find out where the food has been transported, it is also an important clue.

"Is there anyone in the city involved in the grain escort?" Baili Jiu asked.

Everyone shook their heads: "Huang Dexing will not fake all the things to the people here, he himself has a lot of people." ”

Noya and Bailijiu glanced at each other, both with solemn faces. Noya dipped his finger in the wine and wrote down the word "宎" neatly on the table: "Have any of you ever seen such a mark?" ”

The villagers were illiterate, and they shook their heads after a long time. Seeing his unintentional two sentences, Bailijiu and Noya seemed to attach great importance to it, but they were afraid that they would lose too many words, so they all stopped talking.

It wasn't until later that everyone got drunk and said goodbye, and there were no more clues.

The renovation of Murong Villa is still going on, and the news from the Dali Temple that Lord Xie received that Huang Dexing and the prefect You Daoju were killed, and the Criminal Department led several arresters to be responsible for the investigation, while the three princes were in full swing to dig the mine.

It's just that the mine is easy to fill, so how easy is it to reopen it? Ten cellar wells were cleaned in a row, and most of them either collapsed or seeped water, and they were no longer able to enter, and only two or three wells had just entered mining, and there were still rich mineral deposits in them.

Just when everyone was discouraged, things took a turn for the worse, and they found a large number of corpses from an open cellar, numbering about three or four hundred.

When the pit was opened, a stench of stench smoked the leading soldier, and everyone knew that it was not good, so they sent someone to cover their mouths and noses strictly, and got into the open hole, and before the torches could be lit, the soldier was so frightened that he crawled out of the ground.

Most of the soldiers were a little bold, and they were so frightened by the shocking and miserable scene inside that they were speechless for a while. Moreover, the high temperature of the corpse decomposed, making the dead body especially hideous.

The mine contained highly toxic underground gases, and the corpses were supposed to be sealed in and then poisoned to death. From the thick calluses on their hands, knees, shoulders and other places, it is basically certain that they were engaged in miners' work during their lifetimes. Several people have been wondering why after the mine was abandoned, there was no transfer of a large number of people, and it turned out that they had already been killed.

The stench permeated the entire mountain, and the three princes ordered people to fill the rocks back, and sealed them tightly with soil, because of the low terrain and the surrounding mountains, the air circulation was not good, and the stench was still not dispersed.

The investigation was hastily concluded, and it was concluded that the mine had been completely mined, so it had been abandoned and everything had been moved. Noah was naturally unconvinced, but there was nothing to be done.

Several Jingzhong arresters were in charge of the murder of Huang Dexing and the prefect, and came to Nuoya and Bailijiu to ask for the scene and clues at the time of the crime. They were much more experienced in this aspect of investigation than the two of them, and in the round-the-clock investigation, they successfully arrested the Master Wu from the home of a widowed woman.

I heard that the three princes were extremely cautious when they tried Master Wu, and took him to the secret room, where they were tried for a whole day and a night, heavily guarded, and no one was allowed to enter or leave, and then before dawn on the second day, they sent 800 miles to hurry, and after writing a secret letter, they were sent all the way to Beijing with a whip.

The few adults who participated in the trial were all restricted in their freedom, and all of them were confined to the courtyard for eating, drinking, and Lazar, and no one was allowed to have contact or contact with the outside world.

Bailijiu and Nuoya sensitively smelled a dangerous and dignified aura, and from the attitude of the third prince towards this case, it could not help but show that this matter was definitely not trivial.

The next day, the palace conveyed the will and ordered the three princes and their entourage to return to Beijing as soon as possible!

The storm was coming, and everyone felt the dreary before the rainstorm. Bailijiu didn't know what kind of clues and incriminating evidence the three princes had obtained during Master Wu's trial? Obviously, they must have found out the person behind the scenes, and this person must be in a high position, so the emperor is so cautious.

The emperor's order cannot be violated, and the construction of the mausoleum cannot be completed in one or two days, so Nuoya had to appoint Master Tian to help take charge of everything here, and asked Guan Luo to stay temporarily to help check the construction of the mausoleum.

The three princes and others all took the official road by car, and Bailijiu and Nuoya and his party rode horses and could copy the trails, so they parted ways when they left Handan City and went their own way.

Noah's return this time gave the general's mansion great pomp.

It's not that the gongs and drums are beating to greet her, and there is no labor to mobilize the crowd, and even outsiders don't know the news of her return. The reason why it is said to be pompous is because the old general and the old lady personally went out of the city to greet each other three miles.

Later, the brothers in the barracks didn't know how to get the news, and under the pretext of drilling, Sour Xiucai gathered at the South City Gate with most of the generals, vying to see her return from Nirvana.

The people in the capital don't know what happened, but seeing that they are all overjoyed, it shouldn't be a war, so there are those who are curious, stay, want to see the excitement, so as to become the capital for their own after-dinner chats in the future.

When Noya and his party approached the south city gate, they saw a lot of people gathered on both sides of the official road, and they couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that something had happened. She glanced left and right from the corner of her eye, and with a wave of her hand, everyone immediately stopped moving.

I already had sharp eyes, and I saw a group of people on the opposite side beating horses, the first two, one was red-clothed like fire, fresh-clothed angry horses, and his bearing was scorching, and the other person stood upright, heroic and sassy, and had thousands of graces.

The sour Xiucai and others in the army were joking, they had already discussed it, they wanted to see the two of them lively, and they wanted to try the fame of the rivers and lakes, and they were absolutely capable of dominating the martial arts, quietly ambushed on the side of the road, secretly took the Zhuge bow and crossbow in the military aircraft camp, cut off the tip of the crossbow arrow, and coldly pulled the trigger in the direction of Nuoya.

Noya had already been aware, smiled at Baili Jiu, calmly volleyed up in the air, landed on a crossbow arrow, rolled up in his sleeve robe, and in an instant, a fierce and domineering internal force erupted from his palm, swept up those crossbow arrows like locusts, swimming away like a fish in mid-air, just like a Taiji pattern, and she stood majestically in front of Taiji, with her slender hands and ease. That bearing is pleasing to the eye and scorching.

Everyone suddenly burst into thunderous cheers: "Good! ”

"Murong Yimai's Tai Chi Moon Sweeping Hand really lives up to its name." Among the generals, there were well-informed people who couldn't help but praise.

Noya smiled slightly, and had the intention to give this group of splashing monkeys a dismount, and scolded coquettishly: "Back!" ”

As if they understood her words, the crossbow suddenly shot out towards both sides of the official road. I heard the cry of pain, and many people in the grass were hit by arrows, revealing their tracks.

Noya landed lightly on the horse's back, and Baili Jiu, Yuan Bao and others applauded.

Noya glanced at it, rubbed his head and came out of the grass, and said to Baili Jiu: "It seems that during your absence, they were very lax, and they actually used such a lame concealment technique, or another day, let's practice together?" ”

Baili Jiu nodded with a smile and said: "It's best to use the cruel training mode like the Killer Pavilion, and lock up all these leaders and troublemakers with wild dogs, and Bubbles will be in charge of training supervision." ”

Sour Xiucai and others knew how terrifying it was to have a general with a rake ear who only promised to lead him.
