Nima! The man in black clenched his fists, took a deep breath and left.

Sensing that the person was leaving, he called Ai Xiang again and asked her to invite Grandpa Geng and Li Da to come over and discuss important matters.

said that on the second day, Zhao Zhengshen was still nesting in the gentle township of the concubine, and Mo Lan took Lao Geng to the mansion.

Mo Lan picked up the drumstick and injected spiritual power, only to hear "Bang!" With a sound, the sound spread throughout the entire palace.

Frightened, Zhao Zhengshen bounced up, and there was another loud bang, Zhao Zhengshen hurriedly rushed out with the yamen, and happened to see that the drum and skeleton at the yamen were scattered by Mo Lan's mallet.

The flying sawdust almost stuck in his eye, but fortunately he fell to the ground in time and was fine.

Zhao Zhengshen wiped the sweat from the corner of his forehead, "Gongzi Qin, Gongzi Qin..." Mo Lan just didn't hear him shouting, and stood in front of the "ruins" with a look of disgust, "Why is this drum so unbeaten, it broke in two strokes." ”

"Ahem, young master, Zhao County's order is out." Lao Geng reminded her at the right time.

Mo Lan pretended to be surprised, "Ouch, you came out so soon?" I'm sorry, but the drum was so loud that it shook my ears a little. By the way, your little official at the door said that you are still sleeping, I don't believe it, this is all three poles in the day, Lord Zhao loves the people like a son, and is honest and honest, how can he still sleep at this hour! That's why I beat the drum and shouted for the adults! ”

The corners of Zhao Zhengshen's mouth twitched, and he turned his head helplessly to look at the little official who was guarding the door today, and roared angrily: "Who gave you the courage to frame this official, come here, escort him down!" ”

Turning his head to Mo Lan, he smiled dogly, "Qin Gongzi came to find the lower official at this time, but what are your orders?" ”

He remembered everything that the slaughter came back to report last night, and he originally planned to ignore what Qin Jiyan did, and he would pay tribute when he needed him.

But I came to the door early in the morning, so I wouldn't have come to Xingshi to ask for guilt.

"Alas~ I haven't used breakfast today, Lord Zhao, who said that the drunken flower carvings in your house are very good, it's not as good as us..."Mo Lan touched her chin and raised her eyebrows at Zhao Zhengshen.

Zhao Zhengshen instructed the official to bring the two sedan chairs, lifted the curtain of the one in front, and after respectfully inviting Mo Lan in, he ran to the back and cleared his throat, "Let's go!" ”

Zhao Mansion

"What!?" Zhao Zhengshen stood up from his position, this kid wants to catch the black bear, just forget it, and he has to go with him! He also said that he should be used as a bait if necessary.

"Lord Zhao, don't worry, this black bear is going to be arrested and honored by my grandfather, but unfortunately he came out this time to hide it from his family."

"Don't worry, after the deed is done, I will naturally go to my cousin's place to speak for you, and I believe that my grandfather will also be impressed with you. What's more, the black bear is a disaster in the township, in addition to it, Lord Yuzhao's official reputation is also beneficial. Mo Lan drank the wine beautifully, the wine in this dog official's house is really good.

Zhao Zhengshen wiped his sweat again: "Since Gongzi Qin has spoken, the lower officials naturally do their best and do their best." ”

Mo Lan put down the wine glass in her hand and smiled harmlessly: "Then thank you Lord Zhao!" However, Lord Zhao always breaks out in a cold sweat, so he still has to pay attention to making up for his body. After speaking, he swaggered out of the Zhao Mansion.

If it weren't for the master Liu Heli to stop him, Zhao Zhengshen would have wanted to scold his mother desperately.

"Go, call your father!" Watching Mo Lan walk away, Zhao Zhengshen was so angry that he couldn't breathe.

Liu Heli hurriedly responded and left the mansion.

Liu's Mansion

"Get out! You still have the face, when I saw you pitiful, my father and mother died in the hands of the mountain bandits at a young age, I recognized you as my righteous son, and I also treated you sincerely, treating you as my own son, but look at what you have done all these years? Aid for abuse, for the tiger! What kind of official is from the capital? I think he's a dog officer! ”

Liu Yuanwai was so angry that his body trembled and sat down on the Taishi's chair. Mrs. Liu hurriedly stepped forward to give him relief.

"Father taught me a lesson, but Lord Zhao insisted on seeing you, father should go for the sake of the whole family, by the way, I have already buried the body of the person you sent out to deliver the paper last time, and my father will not be confused in the future."

Liu and Reess are literate, looking like scholars, holding a folding fan in their hands, and saying respectful words, but the fan in their hands keeps fanning, just like the style of a superior person, and they don't know if he is cold or not in winter.

After speaking, he left Liu's mansion.

Liu Yuanwai knew that except for money, the dog official would not look for him, so he hurriedly went to Zhao's mansion with five hundred taels of silver.

After waiting for three days, Zhao Zhengshen came to the Kelaifu Inn with a group of people, Mo Lan stood in the corridor on the second floor, holding a chess piece in his hand, throwing it into the air and repeating it, it seemed that he had been waiting for a long time and was a little bored.

Zhao Zhengshen stepped forward, arched his hand and said, "Hehe, Gongzi Qin, the lower officials have brought people, and the trap on your drawings has also been done." ”

Zhao Zhengshen was speechless, what kind of powerful mechanism should he be, if you look at it well, it is a ground map, but it is not as dense as usual, anyway, he is not looking forward to catching the bear.

"That's good, the efficiency is very high, my son is optimistic about you, by the way, I heard that Lord Zhao and Master Liu are about to form an in-law, congratulations!"

"Of course, as long as everyone catches the black bear, Liu Yuanwai will marry those two daughters to me, hehe!" Yan Sandao couldn't wait to speak.

A cold snort came from the crowd, which made Mo Lan notice him, it was a slightly chubby old man under him, wearing a dark yellow outer hat, with a large piece of bright jade inlaid on it, and his face was cold at this time, and the mustache at the corner of his mouth was trembling up and down.

Mo Lan didn't speak, she hadn't been idle in the past three days, asking around about the situation of the black bear and the interpersonal relationships in Qingying County.

Zhao Zhengshen, the county magistrate of Qingying County, has been an official here for 15 years, although he has not done anything evil, he is also greedy enough, and even became the emperor of the soil.

Liu Heli, the adopted son of the Liu family, died three years ago, so that he unexpectedly knew his identity, left the Liu family, and became the current Master Liu.

As for the Liu family, they had business dealings with the imperial merchant Shen family twenty years ago and became the richest man in the local area, but three years ago, they broke off trade with the Shen family, and the reason is unknown.

afternoon

The group came to the Black Ridge, it was winter, the black bear usually slept in the cave, and when it was really hungry, it broke into the people's houses in the middle of the night to steal livestock.

You must know that in this era, a pig and a cow are the main source of income for a family, and sometimes people who do not have captive animals are broken into by it and have to eat people.

On the way, I met a woodcutter, and when I heard that they were going to hunt bears, he kindly persuaded them, but when he saw that there were many of them, he did not listen to them, so he had to shake his head and leave.

Mo Lan summoned people to dig three big pits on the path that the black bear must pass, the first two were only one foot deep, and the third was more than five meters deep, and the triangular inverted maula he asked Zhao Zhengshen to build was placed below, and a net was placed on it, and a layer of grass was spread on it.

Mo Lan poured some honey on it, urging her spiritual power, and the fragrance of honey spread in all directions.

Zhao Zhengshen watched her do all this with disdain, what kind of trick should he be? Isn't it the most primitive animal trap?

But I don't know that after she dispersed the honey, she added the incense she had made out in the past few days, as long as the beast lowered his head and sniffed it, he kept it.

Looking around, seeing Liu Heli and Yan Sandao, Mo Lan immediately became defensive in his heart.

After a while, Lao Geng came back with a red face and a thick neck.

"Grandpa Geng, how is it?"

Lao Geng clenched his fists and coughed lightly: "It's good that the young master still doesn't know, anyway, it's okay for us to make this trip." ”

Soon, night fell, and the black bear came out following the incense, but it was a little strangely shaped.

I saw it cautiously approach the first pit, stepped on it, and quickly retreated, and then repeatedly confirmed that it was only a small pit, and then continued to move forward, and the second pit let it sniff, just as it was about to approach the third pit.

Yan Sandao suddenly rushed out, and with a roll he was face to face with the black bear, so frightened that he fell backwards and fell into a trap, and the tip pierced him.

The black bear turned around and ran, and before he had run two steps, his steps were weak, and he fell straight to the ground. Two pairs of shoes were exposed, and the animal skin hung loosely on his body.

Sometimes, it is the human being who wears the animal skin, and sometimes it is the human face and the heart of the beast.

Early morning. Qingying County, which was originally quiet and quiet, suddenly boiled at this moment!

"Hey! Did you hear that? That Yan Sandao died, I heard that the death was extremely weird, he and Lord Zhao accompanied a big official from the capital to go to Heiling to catch a black bear, but he fell into the trap of the beast and was stabbed to death! ”

The small tea shed at the gate of the city was full of people at the moment, noisy and shouting.

Some of these people were bullied by Yan Sandao on weekdays, or their families were bullied by him, and when they heard that he was dead, they clapped their hands and applauded.

Some people even said that God couldn't stand it anymore and sent him directly to hell.

When Mo Lan and his party came back, they couldn't help frowning when they heard these words, God? I'm afraid someone did it on purpose.

There are a pair of eyes looking at Mo Lan's carriage deadly, very good, you are here to take the blame, pretending to be the Qin family, and you are also asking for your own death.

Someone suddenly spoke up in the tea shed, "Do you think that Yan Sandao's death will have something to do with the one from the capital, after all, the dog thief did evil every day before, and God didn't see him accepted." If that's the case, then Lord Zhao ..... "That person is halfway through his words, and let people guess."

Zhao Zhengshen, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly clenched his fists! If you really want his life, it depends on whether you have the ability.

yamen

"Silence!" Zhao Zhengshen sat on the Taishi chair, holding a shocking wood, with a serious face, and people who didn't know thought that he was an iron-faced, selfless, righteous and awe-inspiring official.

In the hall, a husband and wife in shackles knelt together, the woman was a little delirious, and the man looked like he was at home.

"This official also asks you, why did you pretend to be a black bear in Heiling, your husband and wife have already been sentenced to death by this official, and they dare to wear bear skins and disturb the peace of the people.
