Chapter 29: Planting Blame

Zhao Gao drafted another royal edict, got Yingzheng's consent, stamped it with a jade seal, took fifty guards, and left Xianyang quickly, first rushing to the military camp in Shangjun.

finally came to the barracks, and after seeing Yang Duanhe, Zhao Gao almost cried.

Yang Duanhe said: "General Bai asked to go home, and the general has already approved it." ”

"How can he go home now? It's exhausting me! ”

Zhao Gao thought of what Ying Zheng said, he must be fast, he had already used the fastest speed to hurry, except for resting at night, the rest of the time was spent on horseback.

The current Zhao Gao does not have the power to refer to the deer as a horse later, and he does not dare to disobey Yingzheng's orders.

Where Bai Zhong's home is, Zhao Gao knows, it is just west of Xianyang, a two-day journey at most.

But he came so far to Shangjun, and took a lot of unjust roads.

If he missed the day and was punished by the king, Zhao Gao knew that he couldn't afford it, so he hurriedly said: "Hurry up and go to Yixian!" ”

Zhao Gao didn't want to stay even for a moment, and immediately changed direction and went back to the west.

But in the blink of an eye, it was gone.

Yang Duanhe also wanted him to come in and rest for a while, and drink some water by the way.

Before the words were spoken, the people had already gone away.

——

A few days later.

Bai Lan wanted to find out what happened to Zhou Shi, so she went back to Changle and asked Zhou Yu directly the reason.

However, Zhou Yu only lowered his head and refused to say anything, Bai Lan had no choice but to go back first.

After discussing with their brother and sister, they decided to start from other aspects, and unexpectedly learned something from the inner prison gate in Changle, about half a month ago, Zhou Shi and a person named Fan Yang in Tongli went out.

After that day, Mu Le began to look for Zhou Shi, and went for several days in a row.

"This Fan Yang, there must be a problem?"

Bai Lan really wanted to help Zhou Yu, and asked again: "Big brother, what should we do?" ”

Bai Zhong thought for a while and said, "Go find Fan Yang, go now." ”

When they arrived at Changle again, they found that Fan Yang was not at home, so they could only ask the prison door again, and learned that Fan Yang had gone to work in the fields and had not yet returned.

Bai Zhong asked again where Fan Yang's field was, so he left Changle Li and went to the nearby farmland to find it.

At this time, it was already evening, and most of the farmers in the fields were going home to rest one after another, and the fields were empty.

Bai Zhong came to the field where Fan Yang belonged, and strangely saw no people.

"Big brother, look here!"

Bai Lan exclaimed.

Bai Zhong walked over to take a look, and saw that there was a little blood stain on the grass next to him, extending into the grass.

The grass had been crushed, and he followed the bloodstains and found a man covered in blood, with five knife marks on his body, and the fatal wound was a short knife inserted into the heart.

The blood stains from the man's wound were still dry, and he still had a body temperature, so he should have just died.

"Ahh

It was the first time that Bai Lan had seen a dead person, and she hid behind Bai Zhong in fear.

Bai Zhong, who came down from the battlefield, had seen the corpse mountain and the sea of blood, of course he would not be afraid of a corpse, but the moment he saw the corpse, he had a very bad feeling.

It's like walking into some kind of trap.

"Oh no, get out of here!"

As soon as Bai Zhong's words were finished, a large group of people came around at some point.

"Kill someone and want to leave? It's too late. ”

Mu Le surrounded the thieves and pavilion guards in the pavilion, as well as a large group of people in Changle, including the prison gate.

The pavilion chief was the director of the police station in ancient times, so Qiu Thief was the deputy director.

"Mu Le!"

The moment Bai Zhong saw this person appear, he knew that something was going to be serious.

Soon he figured out that Mu Le wanted to destroy the evidence, cover up the matter about Zhou Shi, and by the way, he accidentally fell into the trap.

Mu Le said coldly: "Bai Zhong, how dare you kill someone in Changle?" ”

Bai Zhong denied it: "I didn't kill it, but you have a way to frame it for me to kill." ”

"Am I planting?"

Mu Le laughed and said, "You tell me everything that happened just now." ”

His gaze fell on the inner prison door in Chang Le.

The prison gate pointed at Bai Zhong and said angrily: "Just now you came to find Fan Yang, I said that Fan Yang has not come back in the field, and then you go to the field to find someone, I happen to have something to talk to Fan Yang about, so I will follow you, but as soon as I arrived here, I saw you kill Fan Yang with a knife, I was afraid and didn't dare to save it, so I could only go back to find someone to save my life, and I happened to meet Mu Tingchang." ”

This witness was obviously found by Mu Le in advance.

The Bai Zhong brothers and sisters were surprised that the inner prison gate in Changle had just told them what had happened, and the back foot had betrayed them.

The other people in Changle seemed to have been found by Mu Le to testify, so that they could convict Bai Zhong.

Whether the murderer is Bai Zhong or not, they don't know, but it doesn't matter anymore, Mu Le said yes.

"Someone watched you kill someone, and you still say that I planted it?"

Mu Le said sharply: "Come on, arrest the Bai Zhong brothers and sisters." ”

Bai Lan retorted, "You dare? My eldest brother is not more, a hundred generals in the army, and soon he will be a general, we didn't kill anyone, we just found out that Fan Yang was dead as soon as we arrived here. ”

Mu Le said disapprerovingly: "A hundred generals can kill people casually? I heard that some soldiers specialize in killing ordinary people and take people back to serve as war exploits, I guess that you are not more and a hundred generals, this is how you came about, right? Catch and take away! ”

Several of the guards quickly stepped forward, some raised their bows and arrows, and some drew their swords from their sheaths.

Bai Lan nervously grabbed the eldest brother's sleeve, so anxious that she was about to cry.

Bai Zhong frowned slightly, if he resisted now, even if he was not guilty, he would become guilty, if he was allowed to arrest them, there was a backstage of Mu Le in the county, and they would not have a good time if they prepared everything.

What to do?

Bai Zhong had no choice, the only person who could help him was probably Wang Li, but he was not around, both transportation and communication were extremely backward in ancient times, and it was almost impossible to inform them in this situation.

If he wanted to save himself, Bai Zhong thought that he could only go to the county, but not be captured by them.

A pavilion guard came to Bai Zhong with a sword and was about to arrest someone.

"You dare to catch me?"

Bai Zhong's eyes narrowed, and a cold murderous aura burst out from his body, pressing towards the pavilion pawn.

"No...... Don't kill me! ”

The pavilion guard was shocked, as if he saw the mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, the sword in his hand was unstable and thrown aside, his legs were weak, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks, and his voice trembled with fear.

The moment the murderous aura first appeared, he had a feeling that he was about to be killed by Bai Zhong.

The other two pavilion guards who were about to approach were all shocked by the murderous aura, their legs were also trembling, and they took several steps back in fear.

Even Bai Lan thought that the eldest brother suddenly became very scary, but she still held the eldest brother's hand, no matter how terrible it was, it was her own relatives, she was not afraid.

Bai Zhong said in a cold voice: "You don't want to catch me, come on!" ”

He stood where he was, waiting to be caught, but neither the thief nor the pavilion guard dared to take another half step.

I always feel that if I catch someone, they will die.
