"That's right, he doesn't want to die, and he also bothered Master Su to go there himself." Wang Bo, the head catcher of the criminal department next to him, said with a shy smile.

Su Shangqian waved his hand, "Arrest the prefect of Lanzhou to Lord Ben, if it weren't for His Royal Highness the King of Death to arrest him, I wouldn't be too lazy to come to this kind of ghost place." ”

"Yes!" The gate of the yamen opened, and Zhao Mingqing had already taken off his official body, dressed in a green shirt, standing in the yamen, quietly waiting for the officers and soldiers to arrest him, and did not resist.

"Master Su, someone has caught it!" Wang Bo put shackles on Zhao Mingqing and reinstated.

Su Shangqian glanced at him, "Even if you have self-knowledge, take it away!" ”

Zhao Mingqing is very calm in his heart, for the sake of the people of Lanzhou, he has done everything he can, worthy of the trust of the Son of Heaven, and worthy of this official robe.

Out of Lanzhou City, there are still two hours to go from the capital.

Due to the heavy rain for several days, the floods were flooded, and the road was full of calf-deep rain.

Zhao Mingqing walked like this, one foot deep and one shallow, and walked for about half an hour, when the carriage suddenly stopped beside him and splashed him with sewage.

The curtain of the car was raised, Su Shangqian sat in the car, looked at him and asked, "Zhao Mingqing, why did you transfer the people of Lanzhou City, who instigated you to do this?" ”

"Even if it's an interrogation of a prisoner, shouldn't you go to the lobby of the criminal department for a retrial?" Zhao Mingqing said suspiciously.

Su Shangqian smiled, "You are already a prisoner of this official, I can try it whenever I want." You still have to be honest, otherwise no one will know what happened to this barren mountain and wilderness. ”

"If something happens to me, can you, the official who escorted the prisoners, get out of the relationship?" Zhao Mingqing frowned and looked at him.

A disdainful smile tugged at Su Shangqian's lips, "You took advantage of Lord Ben's unpreparedness to escape, and Lord Ben was stubbornly resisted by you on the way back from capturing you, and accidentally missed and killed you." What do you think is a big mistake for me that is such a trivial matter? ”

"Our Lord Su is the grandson of King Changrong, what is it to kill a criminal by mistake. Even if you were beaten to death by our adults when you were still a prefect, it would be your bad luck. Wang Bohu said falsely.

Zhao Mingqing said lightly: "I heard that the Anping Dam may burst, and for the safety of the people of Lanzhou, I have to make this decision to transfer the people. ”

"Listen to whom?"

"Everyone in Lanzhou knows about this news, and I don't know who spread it, anyway, everyone knows." Zhao Mingqing looked at Su Shangqian, and his answer was not leaky.

"In the event of a once-in-a-century heavy rain, the official is really worried that something will really happen to the Anping Dam, time is running out, and it is urgent to transfer the people, so the lower officials can only transfer the people first, and then report to the imperial court.

Reasonable, without flaws.

"You!" Su Shangqian narrowed his eyes, "Who do you want to cover, is it the command of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince?" ”

Zhao Mingqing instantly understood that Su Shangqian didn't care at all whether it was his own decision to transfer the people, or someone instructed him, he just wanted to accuse the four princes.

took advantage of this matter to drag the four princes into the water.

No wonder he was going to be tried halfway, and when he arrived in the capital, the Criminal Department was not the Prince of Yan covering the sky with one hand, openly slandering the four princes, and Nan Liye was not a vegetarian.

"Lord Su, it was my own decision to transfer the people of Lanzhou, and I didn't know the four princes at all, let alone instruct it." Zhao Mingqing replied solemnly.

Su Shangqian's eyes sank, "Stubborn, don't give you some hardship, you don't know to tell the truth, Wang Bo." ”

"Yes!" Wang Bo, the head arrester of the Criminal Department, hurriedly stepped forward and shoveled Zhao Mingqing's abdomen with a kick, kicking him, a weak scholar, to the ground, splashing everywhere.

"Bang!" Zhao Mingqing fell heavily to the ground, holding his aching abdomen and arching his body, his face instantly turned pale and drenched in cold sweat.

Wang Bo smiled cruelly, "The surname is Zhao, what our adults ask you to say, don't make a quick move, is it the fourth prince who instructed you to transfer the people!" ”

"It's not." Zhao Mingqing gritted his teeth.

Wang Bo grabbed Zhao Mingqing's hair with one hand and pressed his head directly into the sewage on the ground, "Isn't it?" ”

"Poof...... cough cough cough ......" Zhao Mingqing was almost drowned, and said with difficulty: "No! ”

Su Shangqian's eyes were cold, "Waste, even a scholar can't clean it up." ”

"The big one is angry, and the small one will let him move." Wang Bo hurriedly said, pressed Zhao Mingqing's head and sank into the water, and scolded viciously, "It's still a hard bone, Lao Tzu will tear down your bones one by one, see how hard you are, whether you can recruit or not!" ”

"Gollum...... "Zhao Mingqing used both hands and feet, but he couldn't compare to Wang Bo'......s strength, so he could only struggle in vain.

The whole face was bruised, and the vision was blurred......

"Whoosh!"

A flying knife shot at Wang Bo's hand, Wang Bo let go of the pain, and saw a team of people coming from the rain curtain opposite.

"Zhao Gongzi!" Jiang Wanxiu hurriedly got out of the carriage and ran in front of Zhao Mingqing in three or two steps, and Su Mo set him up.

"World ...... The princess ......" Zhao Mingqing coughed twice, and smiled at her weakly.

Su Shangqian squinted, "Jiang Wanxiu, you dare to obstruct official business as a woman, for the sake of the face of the prince, I won't arrest you, get out of the way." ”

"You abused and beat the officials of the imperial court, and as a servant of the Criminal Department, you know the law and break the law!" Jiang Wanxiu saw Zhao Mingqing like this, and her face was instantly gloomy.

Su Shangqian sneered, "The Criminal Department is doing things, what does it matter to you, meddle in your affairs, for the sake of the face of the prince in the world, I don't care about you, and I dare to take care of my business, hurry up." ”

"Zhao Mingqing, the prefect of Lanzhou, had the audacity to transfer millions of Lanzhou people, and the case was serious, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate decided to intervene and supervise the case." Mo Zixuan lifted the curtain and said.

A man dressed in red in the carriage appeared in Su Shangqian's sight, causing his face to change instantly.

Song Yuanxi actually came in person.

"Master Su, Zuo Du Yushi is here in person, I don't know if I can take care of this nossy matter?" Mo Zixuan raised his voice and said.

Su Shangqian was unwilling, but he could only snort coldly, "The Metropolitan Procuratorate wants to supervise, whatever." But this case is from our criminal department, so don't even think about meddlers. He turned to Wang Bo and said angrily, "What are you still doing in a daze, go!" ”

"Yes!" Wang Bo inserted a flying knife in the back of his hand, blood flowed out, and he turned to Zhao Mingqing and yelled, "Hurry up, pretend to be sick and weak." ”

Jiang Wanxiu glanced at him coldly and said to Su Mo, "Su Mo, you help Lord Zhao to go together." ”

Wang Bo immediately said: "No! We don't have such rules in the Criminal Department! How can the prisoner walk with him? Get out of the way! ”

"And you want to be helped?" Jiang Wanxiu's eyes froze, and her eyes fell on his feet.

The two flying knives in Su Mo's hand lit up cooperatively.

Wang Bo's face turned pale, these nobles are really fierce.

Su Shangqian can only flatter him, but Jiang Wanxiu, he can't afford to provoke him.

I had to swallow my anger and didn't dare to speak.

Fortunately, Su Shangqian had already put down the curtain and didn't care about the outside affairs, so Wang Bo let Su Mo help Zhao Mingqing.

Jiang Wanxiu looked at Zhao Mingqing and said seriously: "Thank you for believing in me, don't worry, you won't be in prison for a few days, and there are variables." ”

When the Anping Dam burst, Zhao Mingqing was not only not guilty, but meritorious.

It was his own choice and his creation.

"Princess Shizi, I know what you are talking about, but I would rather I be guilty alone than the Anping Dam really burst. I hope that what we are doing now is that we are worrying about it in vain. ”

Zhao Mingqing looked at Jiang Wanxiu, his eyes were clear and melancholy, "There are still people in Lanzhou who have not withdrawn......"

Jiang Wanxiu patted him on the shoulder, "You have done your best, life and death are fateful." ”

"If the Anping Dam doesn't burst, I'll keep you safe." A magnetic, cold voice came from behind him.

Jiang Wanxiu looked back and saw that Song Yuanxi didn't know when he also got out of the carriage, holding a plain brocade silk umbrella.

Everyone is embarrassed, but he is as ethereal as a fairy and independent.

"Thank you, Shiko." Zhao Mingqing clenched his fists and said.

Jiang Wanxiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Don't worry, you'll be fine, with the intervention of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the prison of the Criminal Department is very safe." ”

Zhao Mingqing also smiled, "Well, I'm not worried. ”

Jiang Wanxiu turned around and walked towards the carriage, but the whole person hung up in the air and fell into a familiar embrace.

He picked her up by the waist.

"Hey...... My shoes and socks are dirty......"

Song Yuanxi looked down at her, "Who told you to run out in a hurry......"

He was going to carry her out of the carriage, and the ground was covered with calf-deep sewage, but who knew that she saw the old man in distress, and she was in a hurry like this, which made him feel a little bit of food.

Jiang Wanxiu had no choice but to take the umbrella in his hand and whispered, "I mean it will stain your clothes......"

The four eyes are facing each other, a pair of narrow eyes are deep and cold, and a pair of bright eyes are smart and bright.

"I don't dislike you when you're so ugly, let alone dirty." Song Yuanxi picked the corners of his lips, and Shi Shiran got into the carriage.

Jiang Wanxiu blinked, choked and had nothing to say, but couldn't help but smile.

got into the car, Song Yuan Xi ordered Leng Xun to fetch clear water and take off her shoes and socks.

"Don't! I'll come by myself, you go and stay by the side! Jiang Wanxiu's face flushed.

Song Yuanxi took off her shoes by herself, her slender palm was already holding her slender jade feet, and there was a trace of emotion in her deep eyes.

The jade foot held by him instantly became a little hot, and Jiang Wanxiu's ears were red.

He looked at him like this, as if he had done something to him. Hurriedly covered his eyes with both hands, "Don't look at it." But he happened to be hugged with a full embrace.

This person was obviously so cold and arrogant, but let her drown in his spoiling.

……

Outside the city of Lanzhou, Anping Dam.

The river swelled, and the whole sky was dark under the torrential rain.

Han Kechen stood in front of the dam, and the rumbling sound of the river always made him tremble, for fear that if he was not careful, this place would collapse.

"Heaven and earth, the gods and Buddhas of the sky, don't have an accident this time, you can do well in Anping Dam, don't collapse, my life is tied to you."

Han Kechen chattered.

At this time, the official messenger came to report: "My lord, your family has come to visit you." ”

Han Kechen said, "Let them not come, what kind of chaos is there at this time." You are here to watch, and the officer is going to see. ”

"Yes."

When he arrived at the post house near the Anping Dam, Mrs. Han said with concern as soon as she saw him, "Husband, I heard that the people of Lanzhou have been evacuated, is there an accident at the Anping Dam, are you ......?"

"Phew, what are you talking nonsense with a crow's mouth!" Han Kechen glared at her, "I'm fine, you go back." ”

Mrs. Han said aggrievedly: "You haven't been back for half a month, aren't the children and I worried about you?" Besides, there is a lot of noise here in Lanzhou, you are the pillar of our family, you can't have an accident......"

"Dad, what's the situation at the Anping Dam?" Han Yimo asked with concern.

Han Kechen looked at his wife, son and daughter, and said, "It's okay, don't worry, everything is fine." ”

suddenly thought about it and said, "Madam, you go out first, I have a few important words with Yimo, and ask her to transfer them to Miss Su." ”
