Chapter Forty-Nine: What Happened to Shui Sheng
Shui Sheng was found? Is it life or death? Where are you now?
Everyone's emotions fluctuated, and in the blink of an eye, it immediately occurred to him that looking at Wang Xiaofeng's surprised appearance, Shui Sheng was mostly safe and sound, but why did he come to report the news himself, could it be that there was something that needed our help?
"Nephew Wang Xian, Niece Shui's found?" Lu Tianshu stood up suddenly, and the movement was so great that he shook the seat back a few feet away, until it reached the wall.
"Where's Sheng'er?" With a joyful and loud exclamation, Shui Dai didn't want to wait for the crowd to get out of the way, and directly launched the light skill of "Dengping Crossing the Water", stepped on several wine tables on the field with his toes, and came to the front of Wang Xiaofeng at the entrance of the lobby.
A hint of joy appeared on Hua Tiegan's gloomy face, but when he got up and noticed his empty right sleeve swaying with his movements, the smile disappeared again.
Zhao Qing had actually noticed Hua Tiegan's abnormal expression a long time ago, and thought in his heart: This Hua Tiegan brother was killed and his martial arts were half wasted, shouldn't it be as black as the original, thinking about it, it seems that there is a considerable possibility, and you need to pay attention to it.
When Wang Xiaofeng saw the master and the two uncles, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Shui Dai's sleeve, and said with a mixture of anxiety and joy: "My cousin has been found, but the official messenger of the government has restricted her freedom of travel, saying that he will interrogate and ask for any evidence. ”
"Official?" Shui Dai stroked his silver-white beard, and was puzzled in his heart, only that the government wanted to use the merit of taking down the Blood Knife Ancestor, a generalist, to invite merit from his superiors, so he restricted Shui Sheng's personal freedom and wanted to make a deal with them.
"I want to see where the official came from, and actually privately detained my niece of someone Lu." Lu Tianshu separated the crowd, and at this moment, he also walked in front of Wang Xiaofeng, and said in a loud voice.
In recent years, forces such as the White Lotus Sect and the Tianli Sect have rebelled, and some people have even invaded the Forbidden City.
In order to gather strength and suppress the rebel forces with all its might, the imperial court reduced its control over the righteous path martial arts, and even gave a higher status treatment to a well-known righteous path hero like Lu Tianshu.
Hua Tiegan, who barely lifted a smiling face, walked behind and glanced at Zhao Qing twice. Thinking a lot, he thought of the previous situation when Zhao Qing commanded the people in the yamen to participate in the rescue, and secretly left his heart.
Zhao Qing heard Wang Xiaofeng's words, and couldn't help but think of the results of his interrogation of the two eunuchs not long ago.
Those two eunuchs were born in the inner court, but they belonged to the management of the guard office, and they came to Jingzhou this time to investigate the news reported by Ling Huisi that people in the rivers and lakes had gathered to make trouble, as well as local rumors about treasures, and to command Ling Huisi to cooperate on behalf of the imperial court guards.
More than ten years ago, Jiaqing was assassinated by assassins in the palace, and felt that the guards did not defend the palace tightly enough, so he sent a group of eunuchs to train under the Ouchi guards.
These two eunuchs were one of them, and their superiors were the sea chief and the deputy head of the race in the guard office.
After arriving in Jingzhou, the two learned the news of Ling Huisi's collusion with the Blood Knife Ancestor from Mr. Xiong Qian, who was stationed outside Jingzhou City, and then went to the west of the city to investigate the area affected by the fire, preparing to send the news back to the guards.
In their mouths, they mentioned the human and physical evidence of the collusion between Ling Weisi and the Blood Knife Ancestor. Although the two eunuchs did not know much about the specific circumstances of the evidence, Xiong Qian's sworn guarantee convinced them of it.
After Zhao Qing asked about these news, it happened that Shui Dai and the others sent someone to invite her to refer to the banquet of the celebration, and they couldn't think of a way to deal with the problem for a while, so they asked Ding Dian Diyun and them to leave the Ling Mansion and avoid it, and they went to the banquet first.
From Wang Xiaofeng's words just now, she already vaguely guessed that maybe the so-called human witness about the collusion between officials and thieves was Shui Sheng herself.
And what kind of official official errand, maybe he came to investigate Ling Huisi and the prefect's yamen.
In retrospect, it is clear that this was a conspiracy with a wide reach.
Hearing Wang Xiaofeng's plea for help and Lu Tianshu's cry for Shuidai, most of the people in the restaurant began to rush to the prefect's yamen.
However, it is not known whether they are more for the sake of righteousness or pure fun.
……
At the yamen of Jingzhou Mansion, dozens of soldiers with spears in their hands stood guard outside the half-open red gate, and the bright spearheads separated the large number of people in the rivers and lakes who were surrounding the outside and looking inside.
In the middle of the Yamen lobby, there was a thin old man wearing a lion patch suit with his temples bulging high on both sides, and this person was Xiao Fulu, the chief soldier of Yichang Town.
He looked at the military attache under him on the side, and then looked at Lu Tianshu, who was tall and burly opposite, carrying a heavy ghost-headed knife, and said:
"The old man's temporary detention of the water girl this time really has an important case that she needs to testify, but it will never hurt her at all, Lu Daxia, Shui Daxia and others can rest assured."
"What exactly is the case? How long will it take? Was my daughter rescued by someone from your government? In that case, I am very grateful. ”
Wearing a long sword at his waist, Shui Dai, who looked anxious, asked. Lu Tianshu and Hua Tiegan on the side also showed puzzled looks, wanting to know the specific situation that happened to Shui Sheng.
Xiao Fulu sighed and said, "It won't take a few days for the matter to be resolved." I'm here, and I also believe in the behavior of a few heroes, so I'll tell you some news, don't spread it. ”
"The governor of Jingzhou Mansion, Tailing Governor, colluded with the masters of the Tibetan Border Blood Knife Gate, and wanted to secretly take down the Liancheng treasure that was circulating in this Jingzhou City. And after the water girl was kidnapped by the blood knife ancestor, she accidentally overheard the news of the collusion between the two parties. ”
"After the water girl was taken out of the city by Ling Zhifu's men, because the thieves' martial arts skills were not high, she successfully found an opportunity to ask for help from my subordinate Xiong Qianzong's soldiers, and was so shocked that the thief who grabbed her fled in embarrassment, so that my side learned the news."
"After all, Governor Ling is a local official, and if you want to take him down, you still need to ask for instructions from a superior like the governor Yamen before you can officially start it. Now, my soldiers have surrounded the Ling Mansion, and even if Ling Weisi has great skills, it is impossible for him to escape. ”
Surrounded the Ling Mansion? So fast? Zhao Qing, who was standing on the side, was shocked as Lu Tianshu and several people entered the door together.
Although he had already asked Ding Dian and them to leave for temporary refuge, there were still some family members left on the Ling Mansion's side, as long as one or two people told the soldiers outside the truth, the situation of killing Ling Huisi would be exposed.
It seems that if this matter is to be solved, it is quite troublesome.
In addition, it is hard to imagine how Shui Sheng got the news of the so-called collusion with Ling Huisi from the Blood Knife Ancestor?
