Lin Huande immediately fell to the ground and said "damn it" repeatedly, and in the end, he didn't know what he was talking about, as if he was scared stupid.

Wu Chuan smiled, "Then would you like to help Hongu?"

"Yes, I do. Lin Huande kept kowtowing, he didn't know what was wrong with him, and he didn't seem to be able to control his body.

Wu Chuan tilted his head slightly, looked at the silver thread like spider silk that rippled slightly up and down between the two of them in the air, and raised the corners of his lips in satisfaction.

-----

"Master, those people from the palace are here again. ”

An old man in his fifties, dressed in the shape of a man, bowed down and pushed the door in.

"Again?" the man sitting at the bookcase looked up, his eyebrows furrowed as they almost came together.

He was also about fifty years old, with a refined bun and a dignified and majestic appearance. At this time, he was holding a red pen and reading the official document in a circle.

These days, a murder case that has caused a sensation in the city is making him think about it all day long, but he still can't come to a conclusion. Although the top didn't put pressure on him, the voice of the people in the city made him have to pay attention to this case.

That's right, he is Lin Xuanang, the governor of Pingzhou, the father of Lin Xue and Lin Yue.

"Yes, sir, I can't say anything about them, it seems that I am determined to see you today, and I am standing outside the gate of the mansion. The old man, Lin Fengtian, the housekeeper of Lin Xuanang's mansion, glanced outside in embarrassment, hoping that Lin Xuanang would come forward to settle the matter. After all, the other party has been visiting each other for several days in a row, and he says things like "the master has something to go out, he is not there" every day, and he can't fool the other party anymore.

Lin Xuanang glanced at the thick stack of rice paper in front of him again, all of which were the petitions filed by the family members of the deceased! He couldn't help but close his eyes and rub the sides of the bridge of his nose. He said impatiently, "What the hell are they going to do? Why did the people in the palace come to us!"

Lin Fengtian swallowed helplessly, because he had already told Lin Xuanang the other party's intentions, but he looked at the pile of pleadings and files every day, and no matter what he said, he didn't seem to hear it.

But now that he asked, he couldn't say anything about him, so let's answer his question honestly - "Go back to the master, because there was also a murder in the palace, I heard that the family of the deceased in the palace should be asked to go to the palace to cooperate with the investigation, his family is from our Pingzhou City, and now that we are locked down, they can't get out, and I want the master to make it convenient......"

"That's it?" Lin Xuanang was a little speechless, "Why didn't you say it earlier, come, take my sign, and let the city guards open a small door for them and let them go!"

"Well, yes. Lin Fengtian took the sign handed over by Lin Xuanang, and when he saw that he was buried in reading the pleadings again, he stood in place in embarrassment and didn't know what to do. Just go out like this? Just let it go? The other party came back so many times, and the old man didn't look at anyone else, and he didn't respond to others, the reason was that he didn't know?

"Why don't you go yet?" After a long time, Lin Xuanang found that Lin Fengtian was still in place, and asked in surprise.

Lin Fengtian's dry lips opened slightly, rubbed the pass sign in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Master, after all, this is a person from the palace, are you sure you will treat them like this......?"

"Shhh Lin Xuanang frowned.

Lin Fengtian thought that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately lowered his head and was about to admit his mistake, but he didn't expect Lin Xuanang to stand up as soon as he patted the bookcase, "Yes, yes, how can this mansion be so snub to the guests in the palace." ”

Lin Fengtian rolled his eyes speechlessly, and then hurriedly followed Lin Xuanang, who was going out by himself.

"Where are they?" Lin Xuanang walked a few steps, and suddenly remembered that he didn't know where to go to see the people in the palace, so he hurriedly turned around and asked.

Lin Fengtian immediately said: "Stand outside the mansion." ”

"Oh, go fast!" Lin Xuanang walked quickly outside excitedly.

Lin Fengtian even had some doubts about whether his old man was a person, how could he look the same for a while...... This case can't be solved again, I'm afraid he will be nervous.

As soon as he left the gate of the mansion, he saw five young men in cloth standing next to the drum. Although their clothes were ordinary, and their appearance was not outstanding, a closer look at the temperament between their eyebrows and the extraordinary bearing that flowed from their standing posture showed that they were highly educated people.

"Oh, these must be the guests in the palace. As soon as Lin Xuanang came out, he greeted the young people familiarly.

One of the five people stood a little in front of the other four, and it was their boss, called Yan Changkong. His physiognomy is also the best of the five.

In the two steps that Lin Xuanang took forward, he saw Lin Fengtian following Lin Xuanang intentionally or unintentionally, and he immediately guessed the identity of the comer-Pingzhou Zhizhou.

"Lord Lin. Yan Changkong respectfully but without losing his identity made a regular salute to Lin Xuanang. Because he is the chief official of the palace office, he is a four-grade official. And Lin Xuanang doesn't look at the power that is greater than himself, but he has the same rank as himself.

"Oh......" Lin Xuan looked at this young man who was polite to him with a long voice, looking at his clothes, he really couldn't tell what his identity was, so he simply asked directly, "Who is this adult?"

"In Xia Yan Changkong, the chief official in the palace. ”

Lin Xuanang was shocked, he had long heard that the palace had recruited talents from all walks of life, but he didn't expect it to be even more powerful than he imagined. The young man in front of him was no more than twenty-five years old, but he was already the chief official of the fourth grade......

"Lord Yan. Lin Xuanang also made a gesture to Yan Changkong according to the number of courtesies.

"Well, Lord Lin, you should be clear about our intentions. ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Lin Xuanang smiled, "This mansion will let people open the city gate for you and let you out." ”

Yan Changkong raised his hand, "No, we're not in a hurry to leave." ”

"Oh?" Lin Xuanang felt that he had eaten a turtle, and turned his head slightly to look at Lin Fengtian.

Lin Fengtian opened his two big eyes, and he was also a little dazed. The other party didn't tell him anything other than going out of town.

"We wanted to ask Lord Lin for a favor. Yan Changkong said directly to the point.

Although Lin Xuanang was surprised, he thought about the efficiency of the people in the palace, so he calmly followed his words and said, "Where is it, Lord Yan just commands." ”

Yan Changkong ignored his compliments and said directly: "That's the case, the purpose of our coming to Pingzhou is to bring back two people to cooperate with the investigation, but they seem to have misunderstood our intentions, as soon as we identified ourselves, they tricked us into waiting outside, but we escaped through the back door." ”

"Oh, I wonder who you're looking for?"

"It's a family on the street behind your mansion - one is called Chen Qu, the other is called Duan Yihang, and they also have a child, probably named Chen Jiao. Yan Changkong was a little depressed when he mentioned this. Obviously, he was talking to that Chen Qu in a good voice, but the other party seemed to be on guard against himself as soon as he heard that it was someone from the capital.

Then he made an excuse to wait outside the door, saying that he asked Duan Yihang to come out and go back to Beijing with him, but he didn't expect him to let the father and son run away first, and he was behind.

When he realized that something was wrong, he rushed into the door, that Chen Qu had already climbed over the wall, and he gave him a look, he reacted faster than himself, and immediately jumped off the wall. I asked someone to chase after him, but I didn't expect that Chen Qu was ruthless, and he smashed his own people with bricks and turned his head and ran away.

Now I haven't caught anyone, and I can't pay it back to the palace. He is not familiar with Pingzhou City, and he has been groping here for a few days, but he has never seen Chen Qu and their shadows!

"Is there such a family?" Lin Xuanang turned around and asked.

In fact, his question is really unreasonable, because the population of Pingzhou City is very large, how can Lin Fengtian know about this casually mentioned a household. Yan Changkong didn't expect them to know who they were talking about like this, he just wanted to borrow troops to get Chen Qu's family back.

"Yes. ”

Lin Fengtian's answer made Yan Changkong couldn't help but look at him more.

"My lord forgot? The one named Chen Qu was also a miscellaneous servant in our government back then, and Mrs. saw that he and his wife were too pitiful, so she found him a way to make money in some places, and there was a big harvest year in the middle, and the emperor ordered to divide the house to the poor, and Mrs. gave you advice at that time and said that Chen Qu's family should be divided into a household first, and you gave them the house in the backstreet yard. ”

As soon as Lin Fengtian said this, Lin Xuanang couldn't help but ponder, it seemed that there was such a thing. Thinking about it, his wife has been dead for many years, and he has done a lot of good things to love the people, and it is normal for him not to remember.

"Yes, right...... What's wrong with them? Why does the palace still have something to do with them?" Lin Xuanang couldn't help but ask a few more questions because this Chen Qu family was something that his wife often took care of when she was alive.

Yan Changkong glanced at him, "It's inconvenient to say, I can only promise that I won't hurt them." ”

"Oh......" Lin Xuanang knew the rules of the palace, so he didn't ask any more.

He turned to Lin Fengtian and said, "You tell our people to go and bring Chen Qu and his wife back." For the sake of the face of the mansion, the two of them probably won't run away again. ”

Lin Fengtian nodded, "Yes." ”

"Then thank you, Lord Lin. Yan Changkong saw that the matter had been discussed, and his heart was settled, and he hugged his fists and thanked him.

"Well, it's okay. Will Lord Yan come in and sit down?"

"Uh......" Yan Changkong hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Lin...... Actually, I've always been very interested in your homicide case in Pingzhou, can I help you look at the file?"

Lin Xuanang was stunned for a moment, because no matter how this file was said, it was confidential, and Yan Changkong's request was actually very inappropriate.

But there was nothing unclean in Yan Changkong's eyes, and it seemed that he could accept it if he promised it or not. This also made Lin Xuanang's vigilance relax a lot - the other party was just keen on investigating the case, and he couldn't find out anyway, so it was better to make it convenient, maybe he could see the light of day.

"It's fine. ”
