Chapter 91: Teahouse Inquiry

On the carriage, Xiao Jingheng was sitting precariously, his eyes lowered, and his fingertips rubbed the jasper belt hook around his waist.

"How do you see it, is it a demon or a fairy?" Xiao Jingheng asked Lao Dao.

The old Tao was embarrassed: "That girl is a demon, but she has fairy power to protect her body, and that boy is too deep to see." ”

Yushi thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to invite the national teacher and his disciples?" Together, they will be able to catch them. ”

"I'm not here to catch demons, it's to find out that Prince Maya was killed due to the collusion of officials and demons, and to give Maya an explanation. Xiao Jingheng is not angry and arrogant.

Maya confessed in the letter that the female catcher was derelict in her duties, and was reminded by Prince Maya to catch the thief, because the thief was injured, the rabbit demon raised by the female catcher was not angry, so she injured the prince, and the prince ordered the demon catcher and the wizard to catch the demon, but the big demon blocked and seriously injured the prince and others, arrogant and domineering, unreasonable.

"Maya's meaning is nothing more than for us to catch the monsters and give them an explanation. The minister thought about it, the big demon mentioned in the letter was Miss Su, so as long as we caught her, everything would be solved. "Yu Shi talked eloquently.

Xiao Jingheng sneered: "If he wants me to arrest me, he has to spend manpower and financial resources to catch me?" If this incident caused a great chaos in Wu County, and it fell into the runaway control of three years ago again, would they send people to quell the chaos?

"Mortals are out of control, sacrifice a few to catch quickly to calm the chaos, the big demon is out of control, let them Maya come to sacrifice?

"Today, I have managed to stabilize them, so don't act privately to harm my good deeds.

"I heard that Prince Namaya is not a good one, who knows how many words he said are true and false, and whether he has the intention of provoking the government and the people?"

Looking at the young and vigorous emperor, Yushi was speechless, so he could only echo: "The last time the minister came to Wu County, the official did not have a good impression of Prince Maya, but after all, he was seriously injured in Wu County, and he was almost half paralyzed. ”

"It's just a vassal country, I said to give them an explanation, for the sake of their years of peace, to give them face, not to indiscriminately wipe away their rudeness, and put a dirty hat on my officials' heads." Xiao Jingheng's eyebrows are unquestionably emperoral, superior and confident.

Yu Shi was worried: "Last year, the ministers asked the officials in the yamen in detail, but they were all familiar with the female catcher, and their remarks were biased, and the people did not dare to speak in vain, and they were afraid.

"The minister wants to start with the rabbit demon, but the Taoist priest is not cultivated enough, and there is no conclusive evidence, so the minister can only return to Beijing to discuss again.

"It would be great if I could hear the testimony of civil witnesses on my revisit to Wu County.

"Fang Caichen wants to arrest the big demon, but also hopes that it can become a breakthrough, and when the people see the big demon being caught, they will definitely not hide it out of fear."

Xiao Jingheng was silent, lifted the curtain and looked out.

Today it was clear, the snow had melted, the ground was wet, and there were more people traveling.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant stood at the door dressed like a scale, holding a signboard and shouting for today's new dishes.

The laughter of chatter in the teahouse came, accompanied by the babbling of the erhu.

"The people don't dare to tell the truth to the officials, because they are afraid that the truth will become a life-threatening talisman, but between the people, they won't think so much." Xiao Jingheng lowered the curtain, "Let someone prepare the regular clothes for the people of Wu County for me, and I will go out in person." ”

*

In the teahouse, the erhu on the second floor is babbling and pulling, and the guests on the first floor are sitting together, listening to the splashing and bragging.

"I am now a celebrity in front of Brother Ling, which is equivalent to a celebrity in front of Miss Su and Gongzi Wen, last time I also helped Miss Su who was lost to show the way and bought needles and threads for Brother Ling!"

The two younger brothers next to him echoed in unison: "See it with your own eyes, see it with your own eyes." ”

The others looked at Popi enviously: "Ling Nai has a good temperament, you have bullied him for so long, and he has not bothered with you, if it were me, I would have beaten you to half of your body." ”

Splashing and waving his hand: "Go, go, I was ignorant before, I don't know that Brother Ling let me, didn't I wake up and help him save Nanzhutou's life?" If I hadn't found out in time, Nan Zhutou would have died a long time ago! ”

He raised his eyebrows proudly, his small eyes were full of shrewdness, and his cold and red hand picked up the tea: "Yo, it's empty." ”

When Xiao Er heard this, he hurriedly came over with a teapot and smiled: "Brother Mouse, tea is here!" ”

"It's a little cold in your teahouse." Splash rubbed his hands.

"Got it, hand stove, huh?"

"Or you kid has the eyesight."

"Hush." Someone couldn't get used to seeing the appearance of the prickly villain, so he rolled up his sleeves and glanced at him and moved his position.

Xiao Jingheng, who had been standing behind him for a while, sat down, and the attendants stood behind him, vigilant of people coming from the left and right.

"I listened to it for a while just now, but I didn't expect Childe to look ordinary, but it turned out to be a powerful person." Xiao Jingheng smiled kindly.

With such a clear and neutral voice added, it immediately seemed out of place.

A group of people looked over, their faces changed slightly, and some people recognized his appearance and made an excuse to leave the teahouse.

"Brother Mouse, we still have something to do at home, you drink slowly." The two younger brothers made an excuse and slipped away.

Suddenly, there were only splashes and two unknown passers-by on the table.

"Why are they all gone?" Xiao Jingheng was puzzled.

Splash put down the teacup, swallowed the tea with difficulty, and felt a little apprehensive in his heart: "Childe and Yushi patrolled the streets that day, walked in the forefront, and remembered all the good eyes." Can be greeted by the county order and escorted by the imperial history, and the official position of the prince is at least five grades or more, right? ”

Xiao Jingheng chuckled: "I am the nephew of Lord Yushi, and I am here to learn the way of Lord Yushi, so that I can take a detour as an official in the future." ”

Splashy breathed a sigh of relief, revealing the villain's triumphant appearance again: "Wow! It's his nephew, I'll just say that you are so young, how can you be older than the imperial historian! In our small place in Wu County, the most powerful official is only Lord Yushi. ”

"In addition to Goshi, isn't there also Prince Maya?"

"You are here again for the sake of Prince Maya? Is he that important? The tone of the splashy tone was full of disdain for Prince Maya.

"He accused you of colluding with demons to harm people, the situation is serious, how can you report to the top if you can't do it?" Xiao Jingheng sighed, "It's difficult." ”

Splashing eyes purred: "It's not simple, just say that it hasn't been found out, and if you want the result, let Prince Maya check it." ”

The passer-by next to him laughed: "Does he dare to come?" The appearance of running away is so embarrassing, as long as Miss Su is here, he will not dare to come to Wuxian County in his life. ”

"Is it the girl Su Jingtang in Su's house?" After Xiao Jingheng asked, the passer-by was shocked to say the wrong thing, hesitated a few words, and made an excuse to run away.

"You've already seen them? Didn't offend her, did you? Splash lowered his voice.

"Miss Su is beautiful and kind-hearted, and she doesn't care about those things."

Splashy resolutely did not believe it.

"Why do you avoid talking about her, is there any secret in it?" Xiao Jingheng asked.

Splashy sat at the table with his legs crossed and his back hunched, fiddling with the empty teacup with both hands: "Actually, I know what you want to ask, it's nothing more than to want to know, what happened that day, others don't dare to say, it's for fear of making Gongzi Wen angry, but I'm different, I've dealt with them all." ”

"Do you remember everything that happened that day?"

"Well...... this one" Splashy sighed and stared at the teacup, "I have a dry mouth, if there is a pot of high-grade Jin Junmei, it would be nice to have a freshly baked plum blossom crisp, hot, one to moisten the throat, and one to quench hunger." ”

The hint was so obvious, Xiao Jingheng did not delay, and immediately ordered the attendants to arrange.

Splashy straightened his back and smiled with a thief's eyebrows: "This has to start from the beginning......
