County Offices.

Guo Wanjin's head was still there, and the blood spilled to the side of the table, dripping to the ground.

In the final analysis, Shang Jia's status is still low, so Xue Bai didn't say to Lu Linghao once or twice that he would take the Guo family to explain.

"Lishan stabbing case, the sage asked me to find out the real culprit behind the scenes, these people are the ones who have strength in Yanshi County, if it is not a county order, it is a record.

Xue Bai said, patted Guo Wanjin, and continued: "This is the best candidate, and we all know very well in our hearts that he is not wronged.

He came to Yanshi and saw the drawbacks of being entangled, but it was impossible to get rid of Lu Linghao, Gao Chong, Guo Lian, Song Mian, and Guo Wanjin at one time...... He had to divide them and knock them brick by brick like he demolished a house.

So I chose the simplest case of selling a lover to start, knock on the most marginal businessman first, and appease the most authoritative county order.

When Song Mianlai approached him, he said a lot of things in order to deceive Wang Yi's evidence, revealing his disdain for Shang Jia in his words; When it was found that Guo Wanjin was related to the sanatorium, encroachment on private land, smuggling and so on; When I bought those orphan girls from the dark house...... It can be determined that Guo Wanjin has the lowest status and can be used to open up the situation, which in turn involves the entire chain of interests.

Of course Lu Linghao didn't agree, so Xue Bai knocked hard.

The matter of pretending to be Zhang Sanniang is very simple, he didn't even arrange it himself, because what he wanted was very simple - to find a reason to end the dark house, blame Guo Wanjin, and force him to rebel.

Du Shi was very worried, afraid that Li Twelve Niang would be recognized, afraid that the Zhang family in Shangzhu Kingdom would make trouble, Xue Bai didn't care at all, and just patted her on the back to appease her.

"It's okay, I'm an official. is also an official, Lu Linghao and Gao Chong can force honest peasants to become anti-thieves, can't we force a real anti-thief to rebel? ”

Pretending to be a noble person and sending it to the dark house, and then taking someone to search it out, testify, and persecute ....... it was a very simple design from the beginning, but someone was led away, and it was a matter of benefit.

For example, only the word "noble" made Song Li still in a fog, caring about whether Zhang Sanniang was true or false.

Zhang Sanniang is fake, but these people haven't thought about it, is it fake that those orphans in the nursing workshop are being sold?

The people's fields are ten, twenty, and hundreds of hectares are divided into recuperation fields, only hoping that the orphans will have a support, but they are all sold, and when Xue Bai raids the dark fang, these powerful gentry only care about the saint's cousin and niece from beginning to end.

Fake Zhang Sanniang's emotions are like a thin thread, leading people to dance hand in hand, revealing their ugliness. Lu Linghao was frightened, Song Li was heartbroken, Guo Lian avoided the matter, the father and son of the Guo family hurriedly came, and the noble dog jumped off the wall in a hurry.

Of course, they also had suspicions, but they felt that Xue Bai would not dare to let people pretend, but why didn't Xue Bai dare? He had already offended the two daughters of the Zhang family.

lost the relationship with Zhang's Mansion in Chang'an, and did the practical things in front of him, the big deal was that Zhang went to the sage to sue him afterwards...... If he doesn't tell him, his connections in Chang'an are useless.

On the other hand, when the local people don't agree with each other, they draw their swords and face each other, and they can still take care of Zhang Quyi? Xue Bai was never afraid of the prince and Li Tan when he dealt with him.

People are realistic, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and the surviving winner naturally has the opportunity to make up for it afterwards....

Lu Linghao also had to consider this issue from a practical point of view.

"Dead are dead.

He sighed, made up his mind, and said, "Then let's follow this result." ”

As a prefectural ordinance, it must be considered from the perspective of a prefectural ordinance. At present, the case is closed with Guo Wanjin's head, and the Lishan stabbing driving case and the case of selling Zhang Sanniang can be solved together, and the profits can be shared, and the bottom is dotted, which is the best choice.

Calmly deal with the best results, this is the most basic thing for officials to do. Lu Linghao looks down on Gao Chong, who looks like everything must be under control, can he control it?

"Go and call Gao Xiancheng back, and say that there is something important in the county to discuss with him."

"Wow.

A clerk received the order and went out of the county office to find Gao Chong, and if Gao Chong accepted the result in the face of the county order, the situation could be calmed down temporarily.

After arranging this matter, Lu Linghao turned to Xue Bai and said with a calm face: "This county will let Gao County settle the matter, and you will also stop it for me, and there will be no more incidents!"

If this matter is temporarily over, it will be equivalent to Xue Bai tearing a hole in Yanshi County and opening up the situation, there is nothing that cannot be done.

He then responded: "This is natural, I only came to Yanshi to ask for a mission, if Gao Xiancheng does not move me, this matter will be over."

Lu Linghao nodded, believing that Xue Bai did not have the ability to oppose Gao Chong, and what he said must be the truth.

You will also apologize to Gao County for a while, the same county is an official, and you don't ventilate in advance before doing things, this is your fault.

"Yes." Xue Bai refused to wait for Gao Chong to come over at the county office, and asked, "Can the Ming Mansion allow me to retire temporarily?"

"What? Are you still afraid that he will kill you in front of the county? ”

"Presumably, Gao County Cheng will give Ming Mansion this face." Xue Bai said nicely, "It's me who is timid." ”

"Okay, after the county appeases him first, you and I will have a good talk.

Xue Bai withdrew from the order corridor, and Qi Chou stepped forward and said, "County Lieutenant, Gao Xiancheng has released all those traffickers and let them go to Sanguanmiao Lane to dispose of the slaves and maids."

"Let's go too."

At the gate of the inn, a waving stick smashed down the lantern hanging on the eaves.

Neither side of the fight was armoured, and only some of them had swords.

Gao Chong's face was grim, and he was surprised that the guards brought by the fake Zhang Sanniang were really a bit of tricks.

In this regard, he was more cautious, and did not rush to order the men of the Cao Gang to attack inside. Instead, let them force them up, force each other back into the post house, and surround them.

While observing, he pondered, why did Xue Bai have these manpower? These people are much more powerful than the average scoundrel.

Out of fear of the powerful, for a moment even he suspected that this was really the Zhang family's guard.

"Gao Xiancheng." A clerk hurriedly came and said, "The county order asks the county to go back to the office, and there is something important to discuss." ”

"Go and reply to the county order, and talk about it when I take down these demon thieves."

did not go as Lu Linghao wished, this time, Gao Chong did not have the attitude of calming things.

The fight continues.

Pretending to be the steward of the Zhang family is Shi Zhong under Da Xi Yingying, and those Zhang family guards are all buddies of Fengwei Building, some of them are the thugs of the original Da Xi Yingying Casino, and some of them are the thugs who were trained later.

Dozens of people seem to be a lot, but they are also transferred by Du Shi from Chang'an, and fortunately, they are all domestic workers and laborers.

At this time, under the siege, more and more people from the Cao Gang came, and many people were injured here. Relying on the help of Gongsun Auntie and her disciples, they retreated to the attic and used the attic to confront each other on the defensive.

"The owner." Shi Zhong hurriedly ascended to the high pavilion and reported to Du Shiyu, who was observing the situation: "It seems that Gao Chong has no posture of stopping.

Du Jiao said in her heart, then it will be troublesome.

She is the one who knows Xue Bai's intentions best, and knows that getting rid of Guo Wanjin and his son is only the first step, although Xue Bai is willing to take his time step by step, he is afraid that Gao Chong will not give him a chance easily.

"It doesn't matter." Her face did not change, and she responded: "Just drag him, there will be every chance to break it." ”

It is said that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, but seeing that Yanshi County is full of snakes, it only depends on how many Xue Bai can catch, don't be bitten by any of them.

Kuixingfang, the house where Xue Bai temporarily lives.

One hand was pushed against the door, and his index finger was severed.

There was a "squeak" and the door was pushed open, leaving the courtyard empty.

Li San'er walked inside and instructed his subordinates to find Xue Bai's family, recalling the night he killed Wang Yanxian.

For more than three years, he had given Wang Yanxian many chances, and finally killed him, but he didn't expect Wang Yanxian to come to a more difficult Xue Bai as soon as he died.

So sometimes killing people isn't necessarily a good thing.

"Qu Shuai, everyone is gone, only they are found.

Several servants, slaves and maids were driven to the lobby and screamed, "Don't kill me, we were sent by the county order......

It can be seen that they know Li San'er.

"What about Xue Bai's family?

"Except for a concubine, the county lieutenant didn't bring any family. They are all guards and staff, and they have been taken away by a small-eyed young man in the afternoon.

"What small-eyed young man?"

"What is the name of Du Wulang, he said that he had to bring people to Luoyang to be safe."

"What about Yin Liang?

"Also, gone.

"What do they have?"

"A small cloth bag, square, full of books......

Li San'er looked up at the roof beams and thought seriously for a while.

His brain should not be very useful, and he needs to concentrate on thinking about things before he can think about them.

Du Wulang and Yin Liang have found evidence of smuggling, and they also sent Xue Bai's family to Luoyang? No, if that's the case, it's impossible for the Cao Gang not to know.

They are hiding in the county seat, and they must have been hidden by Mulan's little gang.

"What the county is looking for must still be in the city, you take people to search the places where the thieves often stay."

"Okay.

At the same time, some of his subordinates rushed over and said, "Qu Shuai, I found Xue Bai, in the county office." But...... The county order ordered that he should not be touched.

"Why?" Li San'er was surprised.

"The villain doesn't know either, but the county magistrate also sent someone to warn the county, saying that tonight's matter is over."

"It's weird."

Li San'er raised his head again and pondered.

Although he was born in a reckless manner, he has great ambitions, and he has begun to read and write in the past two years, and often thinks about problems with his brain, because he will also be an official in the future, and he must be a big official.

"Qu Shuai?

"I see." Li San'er thought very seriously, and it took a while to come back to her senses, and muttered: "The official is really a mother with milk." ”

"Qu Shuai, what do you mean?"

"The county order was negotiated by Xue Bai, to put it bluntly, the words 'coercion and temptation'."

Li San'er somewhat despised Lu Linghao, an official who only looked at the situation and had no insistence, and had no bones.

The next moment, someone came in a hurry, and when he looked at the firelight, he saw that it was the people around the county Cheng Gaochong.

"What does the county say? Can you listen to the orders of the county order, just this matter? ”

"The county Cheng asked Qu Shuai to send more people to the post house, and get rid of Xue Bai as soon as possible."

"Ke County

"Don't care about the county order, Xue Bai made people pretend to be the emperor and raise dead soldiers, and the evidence is conclusive. Kill him, the wood is already in the boat, and Lu County Ling can only pinch his nose and admit it. ”

"Understood." Li San'er obeyed the resolute attitude of the Gao family brothers, beckoned the people around him, and said, "You wait to go to the post house to help Gao County."

"Yes.

"For the rest, follow me to the county office and let the county order see what it means to be in a boat."

The group rushed to the county office, and someone rushed to report the news on the road, saying: "Qu Shuai, Xue Bai went to Sanguanmiao Lane." ”

"What is he doing there?

"It's still playing official power, re-arresting those traffickers of the Guo family."

"I really think I'm the county lieutenant of Yanshi.

Li San'er couldn't help but smile.

He understood Xue Bai's thoughts, and felt that after negotiating with the county order, he could do what he should do. As an official, he always feels that he can solve the problem with some wisdom and negotiation of conditions.

But he wanted Xue Bai to understand that this was not Chang'an, and in the realm of Yanshi, no matter how much intrigue and trickery was useless, what he ushered in in the end was his Li San'er's strength.

Li San'er didn't show too much murderous aura on his face, and said leisurely: "He can die in the same place as Wang Yanxian."

Sanguanmiao Lane.

Some of the slaves who had been rescued from the dark house were housed here, anxiously waiting for a change of fate.

Among them, there is a woman named Hongxia, who is a slave maid of Luhun Villa, and when she was questioned, she heard the county lieutenant say "When the time comes, set up a factory and live a new life", she has been looking forward to it.

Suddenly.

"Bang!

The gate was kicked open, and the traffickers rushed in, and the slaves scattered in all directions, screaming and fleeing.

The men laughed and rushed in to catch her, but before Hongxia could run, she was grabbed by the hair and slapped in the face, and then pushed to the ground, and the other party began to tear her clothes.

"Let go of me!

"Haha, you don't recognize me, I picked you up at Luhun Villa, you prodigal who seduced Xiao Langjun...... Call, prostrate. ”

Hongxia thought that she was not a prodigal, and she was about to bite the other party when she opened her mouth, but she was immediately punched again, and her head hit the ground and she was groggy.

The next moment, someone shouted, "Run! The county lieutenant is here again!

"On the order of the county, all these prisoners will be sent back to the prison!"

In the shouting, it was Qi Chou who ran up first, with the momentum of the team leader, and said, "Which one dares to run?" In fact, Lu Linghao's county order is still very deterrent to ordinary people, some people are so frightened that they squat down with their heads in their hands, and some people turn around and flee.

Hongxia got up in a panic, tried to cover her body with the rags on her body, and looked up to see that Xue County Lieutenant had already strode in, and she immediately cried.

Xue Bai heard the cry and ordered someone to find some clothes for the women to put on.

"County Lieutenant." Qi Chou hurriedly said: "Eight escaped, and five were taken."

"I heard that there is a person who leads the way for these traffickers, and he is very familiar with this mansion, does he have a part in the killing of Wang Yanxian?

Qi Chou responded: "That's Xu Ba, not a slave seller for the Guo family, it's a subordinate of Li San'er of the Cao Gang...... He should have been involved in the killing of the county lieutenant.

"You're settled here."

Xue Bai said, took Jiang Hai, Xue Xian and others to chase after him, and said as he walked: "Be sure to take down Xu Ba, this person participated in the killing of officials, and he is an important witness." ”

By this time the gates were closed, and there was an occasional whistle in the streets, like birdsong.

Xu Ba and a few traffickers fled in a hurry, originally without direction, and almost fled east. A few boys on the side of the street came out and shouted at them, causing them to flee westward.

After bumping into pedestrians a few times, they came up with a hiding place ....

Xue Bai followed the birdsong unhurriedly.

There is another thing that is very strange, Gao Chong and Li San'er are looking for him, but he is going back and forth in this county town and has never been caught.

In short, after chasing in the southwest direction for a while, a half-old child suddenly ran by in the night, and said:

"County lieutenant, someone is coming."

Li San'er also heard the birdsong, and after several times, he suddenly reacted that it was Ren Mulan's thief who was ventilating the news.

"Xue Bai ran away, chasing.'

He followed the birdsong and chased it until he reached the southwest corner.

From a distance, he could already see Xue Bai's cyan official robe turning through the alley next to Xingfu Temple, chasing Xu Ba into the dark mansion that had been sealed.

Li San'er chased after him, knowing that there was no other entrance and exit on the surface, so he blocked it.

"County Lieutenant Xue, you are an official, what did you run away from me when you saw me? Didn't you still play with me a few days ago? ”

"Li San'er?" Xue Xian turned around and shouted: "The county order has already told you to stop, don't be ignorant." ”

"Okay, I said, I want to make friends with County Lieutenant Xue." Li San'er said leisurely.

It's okay to scare others with the county order, but you can't scare him and Gao Chong.

He took more than 20 people and motioned for the eight people to go into the alley to chase Xue Bai, while he followed behind with a knife in his hand.

Suddenly, his ears moved, and he swung his knife upwards.

Above the alley, there was a person who was holding a knife between the two walls, and was directly cut off by Li San'er's knife.

The man fell to the ground and screamed.

Li San'er raised his knife with both hands and slashed, which directly hit him.

"Ambush me?!"

"Kill!

In addition, five figures jumped down from above, holding knives and killing Li San'er.

Xue Bai pretended to chase people, but in fact, he used those children to force Xu Ba into the dark house, with the purpose of ambushing Li San'er.

But at this time, Li San'er has a lot of people around him, his martial arts are extraordinary, and there are his people inside and outside Yanshi County, he can see through this little trick of ambush, as long as he dodges, he will soon be able to mobilize manpower.

"Kill it, Xue Bai is inside.

Li San'er is a master of art and bold, not retreating but advancing at this time, and there is still some excitement in his eyes.

Although he was muttering in his heart not long ago that the county officials' plans were not as good as his slashing, at this time he was excited that an official was willing to ambush him.

After all, the opportunity to kill officials is not available every day.

The outlaws rolling on the rivers and lakes were much more ruthless than the guards of the family, and they cut down the ambushers in a row and killed them in the dark workshop.

There were also a few Cao Gang men in their rear who were injured and were sent to inform Gao Chong and ask Gao Xiancheng to send more people.

Seals have been affixed to the dark workshop, and several seals have been destroyed due to Xue Bai's intrusion.

Li San'er was behind him, although the night was dark, from time to time he could still see the cyan official robe running quickly, he arranged for his subordinates to outflank him, and he quickened his pace.

"County Lieutenant Xue, don't hide, you are not as familiar with this place as me, if you can't hide, you might as well talk to me."

Xue Bai did not answer.

Li San'er said again: "You are an official, I am a thief, at the moment when you set a trap to kill me, you have already lost, it can be seen that you can't deal with me through official means, because the Yanshi County Office and this broken court are rotten, you want to be a good official, but what's the use of being a good official?!" Come, I'll show you how. ”

He was right, he was indeed much more familiar with the terrain of the dark house, and although he moved calmly, he chased very quickly.

In front of him was a long corridor leading to two courtyards, and both courtyards already had subordinates sent by Li San'er.

"Xue Xian, you take Ah Lang away, I'll block him." Jiang Hai shouted, holding the knife in his hand, and turned around.

Li San'er sneered and let his men behind him fight with him, while he bypassed the long corridor, passed through the shortcut among the flowers and trees, and quickly caught up with Xue Bai.

"Brother, let's go!" Xue Xian turned around and slashed out.

At this time, Li San'er was only followed by two people for the time being, and they greeted him one after another. Li San'er held a knife to block, bypassed Xue Xian's offensive, and pounced on Xue Bai.

"The county lieutenant looks down on ....... like this"

The man in the cyan official robe suddenly turned around and slashed it down.

Only this sneak attack was beyond Li San'er's expectations, he was still reaching out to press Xue Bai, and when he was caught off guard, he turned around, but although his body avoided it, his left arm could not be retracted, and he was cut in two by a knife.

Li San'er was in pain and retreated.

He looked up, and what he saw in front of him was not Xue Bai, but a middle-aged man with vicissitudes of life, holding a single knife in his hand, and slashed down again.
