Zhan Feiyun rushed into Beizhen Fusi like crazy, and was naturally stopped by the small banner of the Jinyi guard guarding the gate.

"Alas, what a man! Beizhen Fusi, you dare to break in, are you crazy? ”

Zhan Feiyun pushed the door open, and shouted as he rushed in: "Shen Lian! Lu Yi! Which of you is there! Someone in Xiao Mansion has been poisoned! ”

Shen Lian rushed out of a room, met Zhan Feiyun, and waved his hand at the small flag behind Zhan Feiyun who was about to draw his sword.

"This is the head arrest of the Criminal Department Zhan Feiyun, there must be an emergency, brother look at my face, don't worry about it!"

The little flag guarding the door snorted, Shen Lian was a hundred households after all, and he was extremely heavy by Lu Bing, so he just got off the donkey, but he couldn't help muttering.

"The head of the Criminal Department is arrested, even if the waiter of the Criminal Department is here, he doesn't dare to break into the North Town Fusi like this!"

Zhan Feiyun grabbed Shen Lian's hand as if he had seen a savior: "Brother Shen, everyone says that Jinyiwei is well-informed, how can Miao Jiang's Gu poison be solved?" How to solve it! ”

Shen Lian's face suddenly changed: "Who, who was poisoned?" ”

After listening to Zhan Feiyun's words, Shen Lian hurriedly summoned the Jinyi guards in the Fusi of Beizhen to ask one by one who knew how to solve Gu poison. Unexpectedly, the well-informed brocade guards shook their heads one after another.

An elderly Baihu said: "There was a brother who worked as a secret stake in Miaojiang back then, and was later discovered by the daughter of a little Tusi and poisoned him.

Little Toast's daughter told him that if she didn't like him, she would have poisoned him a long time ago. This Gu is not fatal, but she has to take an antidote every day, so she can't leave her.

He later risked his life to run out of Miaojiang, and I was his answer outside, but when we took the boat back to Beijing, he suddenly howled in the middle of the night.

I lit the oil lamp and looked at it, and it almost scared me to death, and his stomach was bulging like there was some living thing in it.

He told me to bring wine and drink as hard as I could, but that thing was not afraid of wine, and it became more and more powerful. In the end, the brother was so painful that he tore open his stomach with two hands......"

Everyone's faces turned pale when they heard this, and they all stared at Lao Baihu, waiting for him to reveal the answer. Lao Baihu sighed, obviously palpitating.

"There was a big centipede in that belly, and it had bitten the brother's stomach to the ground.

The brother was also extremely stiff, reached out and grabbed the centipede, bit it in two, threw it on the deck, trampled into mud, laughed, and died in an instant.

After this incident, Jin Yiwei also specially sent someone to collect the methods and reconciliation methods of Miao Jiang's Gu poison, but these are all secrets that are not passed on in Miao Jiang, and there is nothing to be gained.

However, I have collected a lot of legends, and it is said that Gu poison is strange and varied, and there are many types, whether it is a Gu or a solution to Gu, there are different methods.

It is said that all Gu cultivation is extremely difficult, and even human lives have to be exchanged. Therefore, although Miao Jiang's Gu poison is powerful, there are not many people who have really suffered for thousands of years, and they are all spread falsely. I'm afraid that there is only one in ten thousand people who have witnessed it with my own eyes. ”

Everyone waited for a while, waiting for his next words, but he saw that everyone was looking at him, and said in surprise: "It's over, I've seen Gu poison, it's terrible, it's terrible." ”

Zhan Feiyun was so anxious that he listened to this old thing talk for a long time, and he was actually showing off that he had seen Gu poison, and he was immediately angry.

But he is a calm and introverted character after all, trying to control himself, looking around at the brocade guards.

"Miao Jiang Gu poison, it won't appear in the Jingshi out of thin air, didn't Jinyiwei find any clues?"

Shen Lian whispered: "Actually, Jinyi Wei also found that two black-clothed people appeared on the street, one of them stayed outside the walls of the Xiao Mansion, and fled after being interrogated.

Jin Yiwei turned around to find another man in black, who left early when he saw that the situation was not good, and he didn't know if it was a man or a woman. When that person was a child, Yang Liusan, who was driving the carriage, turned his horse's head and rushed back to Xiaofudi. ”

Zhan Feiyun clenched his fists in disappointment: "In other words, nothing?" What to do? What should I do? ”

Then he suddenly raised his head: "Shen Lian, I remember that there was a person in the edict who claimed to be the godson of the Great Tusi?" ”

Shen Lian was stunned: "Do you mean Niu San?" It's true that he is in prison, but that was ordered by Lord Lu himself, and no one is allowed to see Niu San without his permission. ”

Zhan Feiyun arched his hand: "Brother Shen, hurry up and take me to see Lord Lu, I want to see Niu San immediately, Zhang Liusan has already died of poison, I don't know how long Wang Yingxiang can last!" ”

Shen Lian hesitated: "I'll try it." ”m.

Shen Lian strode into the room of the envoy, Lu Bing and Lu Yi were playing chess, but Lu Yi was obviously unsettled, his eyes kept looking out of the door, and he was relieved to see Shen Lian come in.

Lu Bing quietly took a look: "You are usually higher than me in chess, but today you are defeated, what can you do with such a state of mind." ”

Shen Lian actually knew that Lu Bing's father and son must have heard such a big commotion outside, but seeing that Lu Bing didn't know anything, he had to tell it all over again.

Lu Bing nodded: "Take the Jinyi Guard, and the whole city will search for the people who poisoned them, these Miao people are lawless, and they dare to commit Gu in the capital!" ”

Shen Lian waited for a while, and when he saw that Lu Bing had no follow-up, he hurriedly said, "My lord, Zhan Feiyun wants to interrogate Niu San."

Didn't the adults say that Niu San's identity is mostly true? If that's the case, he might really know the method of solving the Gu. ”

Lu Bing glanced at him: "No one is allowed to interrogate Niu San again, this is Banzai's will, and it is also my order."

Don't you know, three days ago, Miao Jiang sent an envoy to negotiate with the imperial court, and the cabinet has agreed. Do you want to disturb the affairs of the court at such a time? ”

Shen Lian's heart sank, and he understood why there were Miao people in the capital, since there was a Miao Jiang envoy, then this envoy was actually the first suspect, but Lu Bing's meaning was obviously not allowed to investigate.

"My lord, however, it was the people of the Xiao Mansion who were poisoned, and long live the people who let us protect the people of the Xiao Mansion......"

Lu Bing said lightly: "It's just a servant and the daughter of a six-rank pusher." Is Wang Yingxiang someone from Xiao Feng? ”

Shen Lian was speechless for a moment, yes, who is Wang Yingxiang from Xiao Feng? If you are older, you can be regarded as a friend's daughter, and if you are smaller, she is the daughter of Xiao Feng's subordinates.

Will the imperial court fall out with Miao Jiang at this juncture for the sake of this relationship that cannot be beaten? No way.

Seeing that Shen Lian's face was wrong, Lu Bing glanced at him: "What?" Are you stubborn again? If it was Xiao Feng's wife who was poisoned, even if it was Liu Ruyun who relied on Xiao Feng, there would still be some excuses.

For the sake of a Wang Yingxiang, if you blatantly disobey the order, don't say if I can save you, just let you Shen Lian say it yourself, for the sake of such a little girl, can you have a clear conscience about the major event of destroying the stability of the imperial court and Miaojiang? ”

Shen Lian lowered his head, a gentleman can be bullied, Lu Bing's words directly held Shen Lian down.

Shen Lian is a person who would rather sacrifice his whole family for the sake of national affairs, and he categorically can't say anything about interfering with the affairs of the imperial court for the sake of Wang Yingxiang.

After holding down Shen Lian, Lu Bing glanced at Lu Yi again: "I know that you often go in and out of the Xiao Mansion, and you have a familiarity and affection for the people in the Xiao Mansion.

But this is not the time to be emotional, if you two really want to save the child, hurry up and take Jinyiwei to the street to arrest people, and bring as many people as you can. If you're lucky, you might be able to catch someone who is a Gu.

If it's unlucky, it's the child's life. War together is tens of millions of lives, why is her life more expensive than other people's gold?

As for Niu San's matter, you two have heard it clearly, if you dare to interrogate in private, or take Zhan Feiyun to interrogate, I will kill you two first without waiting for Banzai to make an order! ”

Lu Yi and Shen Lian had no choice but to obey their fate, and when they got outside, as expected, they heard Zhan Feiyun's fierce questioning voice and Lu Yi's usual calm explanation.

"Before Lord Xiao left, he entrusted the family to me to take care of, if I watched Wang Yingxiang die, would I still be human?

I know you have difficulties, I'm not embarrassed for you, Zhan Feiyun is risking her life today, and she wants to exchange her life back! ”

"Brother Zhan, you calm down, it's better to follow us to the street to find someone, one more person, one more hope."

"Looking for whom? With such a big movement, those Miao people have long been hidden, and they can be found on the street? Since you know what the Miao Jiang mission is, why don't you go to him! ”

"Brother Zhan, the matter of Miao Jiang...... The stakes are great, and there is no holy decree in the place where they live, and we Jinyi guards have no right to enter. ”

Lu Bing turned a deaf ear to the quarrel in the courtyard, just stood up, stared at a map hanging on the wall, and gently slid his hand along Miao Jiang's position.

Miao Jiang is a very strange regional name in Chinese history, especially in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it is even more important. Because the frontier of the Ming and Qing dynasties was divided into internal and external frontiers.

Outer frontier is very easy to understand, in fact, it is the national border of a country, in terms of the actual situation of the Jiajing Dynasty, whether it is recognized or not, the Great Wall in the north is actually the border with the nomads.

The southern coast was naturally the frontier at that time, because the Ming Dynasty imposed a sea ban and did not allow ships to go to sea, isn't that the frontier the coastline?

The inner frontier is nominally within the territory of the country, but the imperial court has no actual control over it. For example, the Hetao region, the Tibet region, the Miaojiang region, and most of the northeast at that time.

And the most typical of them is Miao Jiang. Because the other internal frontiers, no matter what, although they nominally belong to the territory of the Ming Dynasty, they are actually on the periphery, in line with the principle that the emperor is far away, and the poor control of the imperial court is also understandable.

But Miao Jiang is really in the interior of the Ming Dynasty, if the other inner frontiers of the Ming Dynasty belong to nerve endings necrosis, then Miao Jiang is at least a gastric perforation or appendicitis, although it may not be fatal, but it really hurts to die.

Miao Jiang is divided into broad and narrow senses. In a broad sense, Miao Xinjiang includes Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Hunan, Chongqing, Guangxi and other provinces and cities.

The narrow sense of Miaojiang is more specific, referring to the red Miao settlement area in Xiangxi, Hunan Province and the black Miao settlement area in southeast Guizhou. Most of the Miao people in these places are called "Shengmiao".

"Sheng" is a more discriminatory word, similar to barbarism and uncivilized, and the meaning of the imperial court is that these guys don't listen to me and don't accept our civilization, so they are barbaric guys.

Corresponding to it is "ripe seedlings", that is, the Miao people who have been sinicized to a certain extent, obey the management of the local government and Tusi, at least they will not rebel at every turn.

But in fact, the living areas of mature seedlings and raw seedlings are next to each other, and they are not so clearly distinguished. In order to keep the hard-won fruits of sinicization, the imperial court moved a lot of stones and built a lot of walls, hoping to block the exchange between raw seedlings and mature seedlings.

It may be fine in normal times, but the last thing the court wants is to start a war with the seedlings, because history has repeatedly proved that no matter whether the seedlings are mature or mature, people can't write two Miao characters with one stroke.

When the imperial court fights raw seedlings, a large number of mature seedlings will also feel that the imperial court oppresses the Miao people, and instead supports the seedlings, so that the sinicization work of the imperial court translation team will be ruined. At that time, everyone will complain that the level of sinicization of the imperial court is too low, and it is not as good as the people.

The courtyard was quiet, Lu Bing walked to the window, looked at the empty courtyard, sighed, and didn't know if Lu Yi and Shen Lian understood their words.

If you two really want to save that child, hurry up and take Jinyiwei to the street to arrest people, and bring as many people as you can......

Shen Lian may not have reacted, but Lu Yi was his son after all, and with an order, a large number of brocade guards were dispatched to investigate and secretly visit the streets.

Zhan Feiyun knew that he couldn't count on them anymore, so he gritted his teeth and went straight to the edict. The gatekeeper of the Imperial Prison knew Zhan Feiyun, because Zhan Feiyun often came to the Imperial Prison when he followed Xiao Feng on errands, so the man greeted him with a smile.

"War catcher, what kind of wind is blowing you here? But are there any prisoners to be locked in? It's really strange, it's not that your criminal department doesn't have a prison cell, why did Lord Xiao take a fancy to the edict? ”

Zhan Feiyun smiled reluctantly: "Brother, where is Niu Sanguan?" ”

The gatekeeper suddenly became vigilant: "War catcher, don't be kidding, Lord Lu has given a death order, and without a holy decree, Niu San is not allowed to be interrogated!"

Last time, in order to find the secret envoy's nest, Lord Xiao tried Niu San once, and tried Niu San to death, and after Wan Sui knew it, he made a will.

Now don't say it's you, brother, even if Lord Xiao is here, you have to have a will or Lord Lu to lead you to see Niu San! ”

Zhan Feiyun sighed: "Brother, offended!" ”

He flipped his hands and grabbed the shoulders of the gatekeeper as fast as lightning, the gatekeeper was already vigilant when he was talking just now, and when he saw him move, he brushed the ground and pulled out the embroidered spring knife, and he was about to resist!

But Zhan Feiyun's kung fu is much higher than that of the gatekeeper, and he made the first move, only three or four rounds, he grabbed the gatekeeper's knife, the golden wire gloves hissed under the blade, and with both hands, he snatched the knife down at once, and pointed at the gatekeeper's acupoint with his backhand.

Acupoint kung fu is real, although it is not as exaggerated as some say, but it makes people feel numb all over the body, and even coma is real. The gatekeeper shouted, and he collapsed to the ground.

The sound of the fight between the two had already alarmed the other Jinyi guards in the Imperial Prison, a total of eight people. This is not because Jin Yiwei thinks that the edict is not important, but no one can imagine that someone dares to break into the edict.

Because the edict prison is on the edge of the Fusi in Beizhen, although it is not in a courtyard, but you can hear it next door when you sneeze, it doesn't matter how many people you put here, as soon as the door is kicked open, you can directly rush out of reinforcements.

But today, until eight people were defeated, Beizhen Fusili did not rush out reinforcements, and the eight people watched Zhan Feiyun rush into the edict prison.

Of course, even if there is no one in the Fusi Division in Beizhen, it doesn't mean that the security of the Imperial Prison is nothing more. The sounds of fighting and shouting quickly attracted the Shuncheonfu patrolling the streets.

The catchers were shocked when they saw the eight brocade guards lying on the ground and humming, and immediately called for friends and gathered people. A moment later, Minoru Tanaka arrived with a dozen catchers and arrived violently.

The eight brocade guards struggled to get up, relieved the soreness on their bodies, and knew that Zhan Feiyun was not a killer, so they all shook their heads and smiled bitterly. Because they knew that no matter what, Zhan Feiyun was doomed to death now.

Disobeying the holy decree and forcibly breaking into the edict, these eight words are enough for Zhan Feiyun to die twice. But after all, Zhan Feiyun was still alive at this time, and he had already found Niu San who was gnawing on chicken legs in the cell.

Niu San was in a good mood now, he knew that he was safe, and the Miao Jiang mission spent a lot of money to bring him a letter, telling him that he could take him out soon.

Therefore, when Zhan Feiyun rushed in, Niu San gnawed on the chicken leg while shaking his head and sighing, not knowing which prisoner was going to be unlucky again.

But he did not speed up the pace of gnawing on the chicken legs, because he did not worry in the slightest about the bloody torture affecting his appetite, on the contrary, the more people were abused, the more excited he became, and the more fragrant the chicken legs in his mouth became.

I think it was because of this that he was promoted by Xiao Feng from among the many prostitutes in Baihualou and thrown into the imperial prison?

Alas, the past is unbearable to look back at the moonlight......

Before Niu San finished sighing, he watched Zhan Feiyun glance around, and ran straight towards him without hesitation. Niu San was stunned for a moment.

Am I going to be released early? It seems that the information of the mission is very reliable! Lao Tzu is about to be released from prison! Hahaha!

Some people died, but not completely......
