As a result of Shen Ke's yin and yang weirdness, he was "invited" to Si Buzhai behind the county party.

There are two houses opposite to the north and south, one for Shen and Xue Nuo, and one for the guards, and there are officers and soldiers in light armor standing on the third floor outside the house.

Shen was almost pushed into the door, and looked at the empty room with only two Taishi chairs and a shabby square table.

Shen couldn't help but sigh softly.

Thinking about fasting?

There are so many places in the county office, Xu Lizhen just sent him here to make him think about making amends?

"Lord Xiao Shen, Lord Xu was ordered to investigate the matter of private salt, the account book is very important, you lost the account book, I can only ask you to stay here temporarily."

"That relationship is good, it just so happens that I was scared this night, and with you guarding outside, I can also sleep well."

"Oh yes."

Shen seemed to think of something after speaking, and said to the person standing outside the door, "Before the county government prison was attacked, my entourage stayed behind to help Lord Tao lock up the assassin, and now the county government is fine, and I would like you to tell Lord Tao to return the person, so as not to have any misunderstanding." ”

"I'm tired, so don't bother me with anything."

The people outside still thought that Shen Ke could be soft and say something nice, but they didn't think he had the slightest intention of being soft.

only heard Shen say "send off", and the delicate-looking young man who had been following him cooperated with the door and slammed it, almost smashing his nose.

“……”

The people outside the door looked at each other.

"Boss, he's ......"

"Leave him alone, you can only be comfortable, you take people to guard this place well, and take care of them."

This son of the Shen family can't be punished easily, and it's not easy to move him before the adult speaks, but it's okay to starve for a few meals, he doesn't believe that this son and brother who are raised in fine clothes and fine clothes can really bear how much of a crime they can bear!

Xu Lizhen had long expected that Shen was not so easy to succumb, and he was not surprised when he heard the person under him reply.

Cui Le was extremely annoyed: "In the past, it was said that this Shen Changyuan had a positive personality, but I didn't expect that he would have so many eyes, when did he send the account books out, and he made people stare at the Hu family earlier." ”

"Let people watch him before you go, and what about after you bring him back?"

When Cui Le heard this, he remembered that when Shen Ke saw him at Hu's house before, he took the initiative to mention the account book, and asked to come to see Xu Lizhen, and the words implied that the account book was still in his hand.

Cui Le only thought that Shen had come back with him, how could he prevent him from giving such an important thing to others, and his face was extremely ugly for a while.

"You just underestimated Shen Changyuan, he was personally taught by Shen Zhongkang's old fox, even if he is not as cunning as him, how can he not have the slightest scheming."

The son of the family has never seen hardship, has not experienced setbacks, maybe the lack of heart is easy to be calculated, but the brain that should be there is still there, once he perceives the danger, he will naturally find a way out, otherwise the Shen family will teach a fool who sits on the ground and waits for death, wouldn't it become a big joke.

Xu Lizhen also underestimated the Shen family before, and when he calmed down after being provoked by him, he already understood that Shen was not as simple as he thought.

"Have you found out, how many fewer people are there around him?"

"At least five or six, Tao Ji said that when Shen came to Qi Town, there were at least fifteen guards around him, in addition to Shi An, who stayed in the county office, and the few people who followed Shen Qi, there was also Jiang Cheng and Gong Lin, who was very eye-catching, were gone."

"These two people are the leaders of the guards around Shen Ke, especially that Jiang Cheng, who is the son of Jiang Wuyin, who has been staying in the Shen family since he was rescued by Shen Zhongkang when the Jiang family had an accident earlier, and usually follows Shen Zhongkang to do things, but this time Shen went south to protect his safety."

Jiang Wuyin used to be the palace deacon, following His Majesty to protect his safety, his skills are notoriously good, four years ago he was assassinated in the palace, Jiang Wuyin left his post for some reason to guard the driving disadvantage, so that His Majesty almost died, was scolded to death by the wrath of the king's thunder, and his family was also implicated.

The Jiang family was demoted to slavery, Shen Zhongkang came forward to buy the Jiang family's women and children back, and was impeached for this matter, but I don't know what Shen Zhongkang said to His Majesty later, although His Majesty did not pardon the Jiang family afterwards, but did not pursue Shen Zhongkang's admission of the Jiang family.

Xu Lizhen has been staring at the Shen family all these years, so he naturally knows about it.

Jiang Wuyin was the number one master in Beijing back then, his son was blue, and the young man often followed him when Shen Zhongkang was walking outside in the past few years, and Xu Lizhen had also seen him, if the account book was really in Jiang Cheng's hands, it would not be easy to snatch it back.

Cui Le said: "In addition to Jiang Cheng and Gong Lin, there are several fewer guards around Shen Ke. ”

"What about the surviving son of the Hu family?"

"It's been reviewed, he said that Hu Shenglin hid the account book in the guqin in the study, and he saw Shen get the account book with his own eyes, but Shen only told him that the account book was related to the luck of illegal salt, and it was also related to Cao Yun, and he didn't show him the account book and let him take it away."

"Hu Shenglin probably knew that what he was doing was losing his head, and he also knew that paper couldn't hold the fire, so he never mentioned the things he did to the people in the family, and he had already made plans for his eldest son, wanting to send people to the palace of Hu Shilang in the capital, and the son of the Hu family didn't know anything about private salt."

Xu Lizhen couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he put his hands in front of his abdomen, and tapped the back of his hand with his fingertips and said in a deep voice: "Send someone to hunt down the people of the Shen family, and at the same time send messages to various post stations, the city gate in Beijing, and find a way to intercept Jiang Cheng and the others." ”

Cui Le couldn't help but say: "Then Shen is still in our hands, since he has read the account book, can't he let him spit it out?" ”

Xu Lizhen glanced at him: "How do you vomit?" Is it tortured? ”

Seeing that Cui was willing to move, Xu Lizhen directly poured a basin of cold water down,

"Do you think Shen Changyuan is one of those people you can move casually? He is the sister-in-law of the Shen family, the prince appointed by His Majesty to accompany him, although he is only an editor at the moment, but he has also entered the official registration of the Hanlin Academy, and he has been embarrassed in front of His Majesty. ”

"If you have conclusive evidence to convict him, forget it, but you don't have any evidence at the moment, he is still holding the salt transport account book in his hand, if you dare to torture him, once the account book falls into the hands of the Shen family, Shen Zhongkang can skin you alive!"

Xu Lizhen wanted to trouble the Shen family, and he was happy to ruin the Shen family's sister-in-law and make the old fox of the Shen family miserable, but the premise was that he couldn't trap himself.

If the account book is not accounted for a day, he can't move Shen Dan, and even the Hu family's living mouth has to be kept.
