An ordinary car came out of the backyard of the Heming Tower, and at this time, the guests in the front yard gradually left, without attracting anyone's attention.

There was a driver in the car, and there was a person sitting in the back, all looking out the window and not speaking.

After driving through the bustling commercial area and entering the residential area, there are far fewer pedestrians on both sides of the road.

Under the dim yellow street lamp, there are many elderly people playing with their children.

Perhaps thinking that the environment in the car was too quiet, Huo Yi accosted the driver and asked: "Chen Baihu, the construction in Xuezhou seems to be good, how is the income of the people now?" ”

Chen Baihu, who was driving, was a big man over thirty years old, and he looked very calm and taciturn.

Hearing Huo Yi's question, he spoke: "The income of the rural people is slightly higher, but there are more and less. Last year, the minimum income of the urban people was four silver coins per person per month, and the widows, lonely and elderly people, and orphans could also have no worries about food and clothing. ”

"Four silver coins. It is slightly lower than that of Central Continent, but the price of grain in Eastern Continent is low, and it should be enough to get by. ”

"I don't dare to compare with Zhongzhou, even in Dongzhou, Xuezhou County is not top-notch, above average."

"What is the relationship between the county government and the royal government?"

Chen Baihu said with a smile: "There is a big contradiction, in order to control floods, the state and county have spent a lot of money in the past few years to repair the river and build the railway, and the budget has been spent every year, and there has been no allocation to the palace for five or six years." Prince Xue also complained to the Governor's Mansion last year, but the Governor's Mansion did not speak for the Governor's Mansion, and the angry Xue Wangye lived in the countryside farm all year round and did not come to the city. ”

Huo Yi smiled: "It's a good thing that there are contradictions, if you are complicit, then it is time to investigate." ”

Li Ji suddenly asked: "Prince Xue is a kind person, what is the news of the Changjun Lord?" ”

Chen Baihu was accosted by the commander, he was very surprised, and after thinking about it for a while, he asked: "Lord Commander, is it the county lord of Huiqin of the previous generation, or the county lord of Lihua of this generation?" ”

"Lihua."

"The county lord of Lihua has been sealed in Sanhe Mansion for a long time, and he has been stationed in the county seat with a humble position, and he has not seen much. She is most famous for her beauty, and when she was young, she was known as the first beauty in Xuezhou, and even now, she is still extremely charming.

She is now in charge of the Charity Federation of Trois-Rivières, and every time there is news about her, it is also a charity deed. In other respects, she has been relatively low-key, and I haven't heard of her being perverse or illegal. ”

Li Ji snorted and said to Huo Yi: "Nan, I was dizzy and forgot one thing. When you come back to the inn, you contact Xu Ji from Sanhe Mansion and ask them to come to Xuezhou County tomorrow to report on their work. ”

Su Nan was Huo Yi's character, he nodded and asked, "Xu Ji?" Is it a hundred households in the Three Rivers Province? ”

"It's not. A general flag. ”

Huo Yi was puzzled in his heart, why could a small general flag be in the eyes of the commander? Is it a secret mission?

However, when he saw Li Ji turn out of the window again, he obviously didn't prepare to explain, and he could only hide his doubts in his heart.

In a short time, the car drove to the outside of a heavily guarded courtyard and stopped at the side door.

Huo Yi opened the door and got out of the car, walked to the gate, and handed over his identity token.

As soon as the doorman saw the token, he immediately saluted and said, "Lord Shaoqing has already explained, please drive the car in, and I will lead the way for you." ”

The gate opened, and the car drove into the courtyard, stopping at a small side gate of a three-story building.

The doorman said: "Go up the stairs to the third floor, and the first room on the left hand is Lord Shaoqing's office. ”

Huo Yi nodded and said, "Okay, you can go back to duty, remember, don't spread the word about our arrival." ”

The doorman nodded, and glanced at the car with some confusion, but the windows were closed so that he could not see who was sitting inside.

When he was about to return to the door, he couldn't help but look back and saw a tall figure get out of the car and quickly enter the building.

In the quiet building, the footsteps of two people echoed.

Huo Yi was puzzled, who did he want to see if he was so secretive?

The time went back to half an hour ago, and it was almost ten o'clock, and the three of Zhou Bei took turns to take a bath before the lights went out.

Less than two minutes after returning to the bunk, the electrical circuit in the room was turned off, except for the fans, the sockets were out of power, and the radio could not be heard.

Staying in the room all day long, Xu Gongcheng and Hou Guiqiang can still exercise in force, tossing and turning, and consuming their energy, but Zhou Bei does not dare.

He was shot in the left shoulder, and the impact of the bullet did not penetrate his body, but it caused a fracture.

Before the bones have grown, they dare not exercise casually.

In the dark, Xu Gongcheng stood upside down, supporting his body with his arms, up and down.

And Hou Guiqiang didn't let him concentrate on the front, and did push-ups with one-handed support.

Only Zhou Bei lay there, also without sleep.

At this time, the light of a flashlight came, and at first Zhou Bei thought it was a prison guard on ward rounds, but he didn't care, but he didn't think that the footsteps stopped at the door of their room.

The flashlight shone around and landed on Zhou Bei's face. "Zhou Bei Zhou Zaiheng?"

Zhou Bei sat up. "I am."

"Someone wants to see you, come out with me."

Xu Gongcheng asked, "Who are you?" Who wants to see him? ”

Zhou Bei reassured: "Don't be nervous, no one wants me to have an accident now." Only if I live, they will reap the benefits. ”

Hou Guiqiang nodded, patted Xu Gongcheng's shoulder and said to Zhou Bei: "Remember, if you don't have a lawyer, don't sign anything." ”

"Understood."

Zhou Bei also had some curiosity in his heart, who wanted to see him at this time.

He also has a basis, and he is not afraid of anyone who will do something to him.

If his life is really at stake, he has space to hide, and he has all kinds of weapons to retaliate.

At the door of the cell, Zhou Bei obediently stretched out his right arm, and the other party handcuffed his right arm with his left arm.

There were only the two of them, and Zhou Bei couldn't help but ask, "This doesn't seem to be in accordance with the rules......"

"Lord Shaoqing wants to see you, and I don't want too many people to know."

After the reform of the Ming official system, Dali Siqing and Shangshu were at the same level, and they were all two products.

Shaoqing of Dali Temple is the third product, in Yingtianfu, is the deputy of Dali Temple, and outside, he is the chief official of the state and county.

If it is in another world, it is equivalent to a provincial justice, and it can be called a high authority.

Zhou Bei followed the other party out of the detention area through three gates, came to the front office area, and went up to the third floor.

In the room, there was only Tao Yuan, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Zhou Bei had seen this Shaoqing, and he was really relieved when he saw him.

A high-ranking official of the third grade will not personally poison him.

The middle-aged man who came with Zhou Bei untied his handcuffs and asked Zhou Bei to sit down on the chair opposite the desk, and then handcuffed the back of the chair.

Tao Yuan nodded, and the other party left without saying a word, like a robot.

Zhou Bei was puzzled, still thinking about how to speak, but he heard the other party laugh and said: "Zhou Bei Zhou is Heng." ”

Zhou Bei nodded and said with a wry smile: "My lord, please forgive me, I can't pay respects." ”

The other party smiled and said, "Don't ask me, I don't know why that big man wants to see you, or if he wants to see you as soon as he first arrives in Xuezhou County." I don't want to know anything about them. ”

Zhou Bei hesitated for a moment and asked, "But the commander of the Jinyi Guard wants Lord Li Ji to see me?" ”

Tao Yuan smiled and said, "You are very smart. ”

Zhou Bei said with a smile: "Except for him, there are no big names in Xuezhou County who have visited recently, and he can be called a big man by adults, and he is the only one who arrived in Xuezhou today." ”

Tao Yuan nodded, looked at his watch and said, "Wait a while, he should be there soon." ”

When he went to Yingtianfu after the Spring Festival, Zhou Bei had seen Li Ji in person from a distance, although he was separated by many people, but his momentum of looking at all beings, and the temperament that seemed to have no emotion in his eyes, still shocked him.

That was the first time he knew that the original immortal technique had been cultivated to the fullest, and it was so powerful.

Because it is not only the oppression of high-ranking power, but also a kind of life level overlook.

For such a strong man, Zhou Bei's heart was full of respect and fear.

And now, that fear is even stronger.

Tao Yuan said that he didn't know why this big man was in a hurry to see him, and Zhou Bei didn't know either, but he was a little suspicious that he didn't pay attention somewhere and leaked the existence of space.

This concern grew stronger as the time approached, and if possible, he would rather go to jail than face Lee Ki.

However, the world would not change with his will, and hearing the sound of heavy footsteps, that step by step, seemed to step on his heart, and made him breathless.

Not only him, but even Tao Yuan was no longer as relaxed as he was at the beginning, walked to the door with a heavy face, and opened the door.

Soon, the visitor came to the door. "Xiaguan Tao Yuan has seen Master Li."

"Tao Shaoqing doesn't need to be polite." Zhou Bei leaned over and saw the tall figure at the door, stared at by his gaze, and his heart seemed to stop beating.

The other party's waist bowed slightly and nodded. "There's no one else here, right?"

"Nope. After Huo Zhenfu's envoy confessed, tonight's matter was handled by his henchmen, and only no more than ten people knew that I had seen Zhou Zaiheng, but I don't know why. ”

"Borrow the precious land for a while, and hope to take care of one or two."

"Don't dare, it's a matter of effort."

Although Tao Yuan is a third-grade Shaoqing, he is not afraid of any official, but he is frightened in the face of this Jinyi Guard commander who can cross the system and investigate any official.

It's not just who he is, it's the enormous pressure to face him to understand.

"Huo Yi, you stay at the door and don't let anyone approach."

"Yes."

In this process, Li Ji's eyes stayed on Zhou Bei's body, and Zhou Bei also seemed to have lost the ability to control his body and forgot to breathe.

When he entered the house and closed the door with his backhand, Zhou Bei came to his senses, took a deep breath, and sat up straight.

The tall figure walked all the way to Zhou Bei's side, and Zhou Bei just wanted to stand up, but he pressed his right shoulder. "Sit and ......"

Zhou Bei immediately didn't dare to move again, in front of the other party, he felt that the other party could slap himself to death.

He turned around and walked behind Tao Yuan's desk, and after sitting down, he rested his elbows on the table, leaned forward slightly, stared at Zhou Bei's eyes and asked, "Do you know why I came to you?" ”
