When the post officer heard the rumors, he led the horse, which was well fed, and was in good spirits, and kept puffing and exhaling. Zhu Wenyu and the four of them walked out of the post station, but they saw that there were already more than ten people outside the hall who looked like they were catching fast, leading horses and waiting.

Everyone turned over and got on their horses, and dozens of horses galloped up the official road like a gust of wind and headed south.

More than 300 miles away is nothing to Zhu Wenyu and others, if you don't stop, it will arrive in one day, but this time it is with Sun Changxu and others all the way, Sun Changxu is an old man who is more than half a hundred years old, and the accompanying catchers are not people who practice martial arts, although they are all good at fighting, but they don't have to spend too much physical strength, anyway, this case has happened for more than a month, and it's too late to catch up, it's not a particularly urgent matter, the group is not in a hurry and walks towards the border of Danling County, along the way Sun Changxu and Zhu Wenyu talk and laugh constantly, Zhu Wenyu found that although this Lord Sun Changxu was born in the army, he also read poetry and books and talked extraordinary. In the early years of serving in the army, after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, he participated in the imperial examination, and was a man of all-round talents in civil and military affairs.

This Sun Changxu was under the jurisdiction of Chang Yuchun when he was in the army, and he was very compatible with Chang Yuchun. Chang Yuchun is the powerful general under Zhu Yuanzhang of Hongwu Emperor, his arms are long and good at shooting, his courage is unparalleled, and Xu Datang and others are equally famous, and he is named the Duke of Hubei on merit, Zhu Wenyu has heard countless legendary things about him in the palace, and he said that he can lead 100,000 troops to run rampant in the world, and the army is known as "Chang 100,000", but unfortunately after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Hongwu died of a violent illness in the second year, which made Zhu Yuanzhang sad. Zhu Wenyu vaguely heard Nangong Lei say that Chang Yuchun's early death was due to the injury of a martial arts master in his early years, and it is said that he is also very related to a gang called Mingjiao, Chang Yuchun and Mingjiao's sect advocate Wuji or worship brothers, but I heard the eunuchs in the palace privately discuss that Zhu Yuanzhang ordered no one in the country to mention these secret-related things, and the violators will be punished for rebellion, so they just can't understand it with a few words, Chang Yuchun died early, and he has not yet entered the palace, and he has never seen this person. At this time, I heard that Sun Changxu was actually a subordinate of Chang Yuchun, and I was interested together, and I was busy asking about it, but as soon as I said this, Sun Changxu squeaked and flickered, probably saying that he didn't know much about this matter, it seemed that the emperor was also a member of the Ming Sect back then, and that was called Zhang Wuji The leader of the Ming Sect, and then disappeared, and the successor leader was also a do-nothing, but Zhu Yuanzhang was the true dragon of the Son of Heaven in the lower realm, held high the banner of righteousness, disbanded the Ming Sect, and led the people of the Central Plains to seize the country from the Mongols and establish the Great Ming Dynasty. Zhu Wenyu heard that he was unclear, and wanted to ask again but refused to elaborate, only deduced that he was in a low position and did not know the inside story, and the emperor also explicitly forbade the people to discuss this matter, Zhu Wenyu knew that this last point was the most critical, and it was not good to force him, so he had to stop. Listen to Sun Changxu said, most of the generals in the DPRK turned out to be from the Ming Sect, if you really want to ask clearly, then naturally there are a lot of people who can inquire, and you are not afraid of not knowing the inside story. But speaking of which, Zhu Wenyu was just curious and wanted to find out, and he didn't mean anything else, so he didn't ask more when he saw that Sun Changxu was embarrassed.

Here Zhu Wenyu chatted with Sun Changxu about these things with great interest, Nangong Ling was also attentive next to him, but Tang Yun and Tang Li didn't care what they said, the two girls fell behind slightly, and they didn't know what to whisper, and from time to time they heard the sound of them making fun of each other.

Sure enough, at sunset, the group arrived at Pujiang County, Zhu Wenyu and Sun Changxu discussed, and did not inform the news of the Pujiang County Order, so as not to usher in the trouble of sending official articles, just pretending to be ordinary past merchants, looking for an inn to stay overnight, and the next day they set off early, and then traveled for another day, at dusk, the group finally arrived at Danling County Town, and there was already a government official in front of the Danling County Order Modo, and Mo Duo led the government to meet outside the town.

"Lord Qincha has been tired all the way, so I won't do it today, Modo, you can take us directly to the inn." Sun Changxu said on his horse.

"Order! Checkmate! Meet Chincha-sama. Na Modo looks to be more than forty years old, with a lean figure, a thin face, two mouse beards when he speaks, his eyes are dripping and rolling, and at first glance he is an elf who is full of news, and will jump up when he presses it slightly.

"General?" Zhu Wenyu asked confusedly.

"Hehe, this Moduo was a hundred households under me, because of the military merits accumulated a candidate county, and later met the original county commander of Danling County, Master Ding was worried about the vacancy, and the Ministry of Officials gave him the post of county commander of Danling County. I also came to Chengdu to take office, because of the murder of Danling to come here to know. Or did he recognize me, and I didn't know him. Sun Changxu laughed.

"Oh, it turned out to be an old subordinate, no wonder Master Sun is called a general, hehe, well, both soldiers are all-round talents in civil and military affairs, and they are from the army and Chinese."

"Lord Zhu has won the award. We are still relatively simple in doing things, this Mo Duo, quite capable, six or seven years to govern this Danling County well, but a little stinky temper, not too much to buy other people's accounts, what to say, that is, I still listen to a little bit, so when the county order has been six or seven years has not been able to rise, Lord Zhu has a chance to carry more support. Sun Changxu glanced at Mo Duo, who was walking in front, turned sideways and whispered to Zhu Wenyu.

"Hehe, this is natural, as long as it is a capable officer, I will naturally help if I can. Do we stay in the inn? ”

"Oh, I'm also afraid of disturbing the place, so the last time I came, I ordered Moduo not to move out of the county office, just to settle me in the inn, and the people accompanying me and the county officials can eat and live together. I think Lord Qincha is also a man of temperament, and he won't talk about this kind of hypocrisy, so he made his own initiative and placed it in the inn together, Lord Zhu must not be strange. If Lord Zhu wants to live in the county office, I will immediately order Mo Duo to move out and arrange it properly for Lord Zhu. Sun Changxu said as he stared at Zhu Wenyu to see his reaction.

"Hehe, good, good, this is the best, Lord Sun's arrangement is exactly what I want, we are guests from afar, how can we drive the host's family out of the door, right?" Zhu Wenyu laughed as he spoke, and Sun Changxu saw that he was telling the truth, so he put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "I knew that Lord Zhu must mean the same thing." ”

"Who's going to pay for the store?" Zhu Wenyu asked carefully.

"Oh, this, Danling County and the Yamen each share some of it, and they are all taken from the case-handling expenses." Zhu Wenyu nodded, and Nangong Ling, Tang Yun and the others behind also nodded with a smile, feeling that this distribution was the best.

Dinner was also served by the innkeeper, Sun Changxu, Zhu Wenyu and others were talking and eating, Zhu Wenyu suddenly said: "Lord Sun, there is nothing to do at night anyway, let's go and see how about those murdered corpses?" ”

Sun Changxu was stunned: "Is Lord Zhu so anxious?" The two-day trip is tiring, so Lord Zhu should rest early. ”

"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay, I'm not tired, anyway, I'm idle and have nothing to do, Master Sun just rests and sends someone to take us to see it." Zhu Wenyu said with a smile.

Sun Changxu looked at Nangong Ling again, and Nangong Ling also smiled and nodded without speaking.

"Okay, let's take Master Zhu after dinner."

"Master Sun is very old, and he has been tired all the way, so let's send someone else to take us there."

"Hehe, Lord Qincha is not tired, how dare the old man shout a tired word? What's more, the old decay was born in the army, and he also slept in the open air back then, although he was older, he was still tired of the hundreds of miles, and there were many things that the people below couldn't say clearly, it was better to go to the old decay, Lord Zhu just rest assured, or the old decay should take the adults there. ”

"Then there's Lord Raosun." Zhu Wenyu arched his hand.

After finishing the meal in a hurry, Zhu Wenyu said, "Let's go." "Stand up.

Tang Yun next to him also put the bowl down, rubbed the ground and stood up: "I'll go too." ”

"What are you going to do?" Zhu Wenyu glanced at her.

"I'm going! What's wrong? Tang Yun raised her head slightly and said as if she was challenged.

Zhu Wenyu hesitated for a moment and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, just go, don't be scared." ”

"Who's afraid of whom?" Seeing that the struggle was won, Tang Yun didn't say anything more, but muttered slightly. Tang Li, who was next to him, saw that he was really going, and he also stood up.

"Lord Sun, please." Nangong Ling was already standing by the door, and as soon as he let his hand, he motioned for Sun Changxu to go first.

"Nangong Shaoxia, please." Sun Changxu went out first.

The room was set up in the Danling County prison, and Sun Changxu's entourage came to report, Mo Duo and a few officials, and a forty or fifty-year-old man who looked like a man was already waiting at the door of the prison, and saw Sun Changxu leading Zhu Wenyu and others to approach, and said respectfully: "Lord Qincha is really resolute, just get off the horse to check the corpse, Xia Guan is really admired." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, Lord Zhu, a young hero, is different from those ordinary people in the past, he is not used to those false courtesies, he acts simply and decisively, you can do whatever you want." Sun Changxu seemed to have figured out Zhu Wenyu's temperament, and said to Mo Duo with a smile. Mo Duo was originally a soldier under his rule, and now he is also the county commander in the territory under his control, so he naturally speaks very casually. However, speaking of which, Zhu Wenyu really doesn't like the red tape in the officialdom, he likes to speak and act crisply, and he doesn't like to be polite, Sun Changxu is extremely accurate about his vein.

"Yes, General. Those two adults, please come with the next officer. After all, Mo Duo was born in the army, and he did things simply, since Sun Changxu said so, he immediately stopped being verbose and said directly.

Zhu Wenyu, Sun Changxu and others threw the reins to the officials, and entered the prison with Mo Duo, leading the way with lanterns in front, turning a few gloomy and wet eaves, Tang Yun is the eldest lady of the Tang Gate, although she has walked through the rivers and lakes for several years, and has experienced a lot of fighting, killing and killing, but when did she walk through such a remote house at night? I only felt that a gloomy cold soaked out, Tang Yun and Tang Li both felt fluttering in their hearts, and couldn't help holding hands and clasping together, following closely behind Zhu Wenyu and not daring to move away from an inch, but Zhu Wenyu was unconscious, and followed Mo Duo forward by himself, but Nangong Ling followed behind Tang Yun and the others, and the lantern in his hand made the two of them feel a lot more at ease. After passing through a few dilapidated courtyards, I had already arrived at the backyard of the prison to work in the room, and I felt a gloomy ghostly atmosphere.
