Chapter 175: Fog (4)
Zhao Huan whispered to Lu Heng in the carriage about the past, and before he knew it, the car had driven into Dulan County.
Dulan County was originally the Liang Xuanwei Division, but since the arrival of the White Tiger, the Xuanwei made the adults flee with the covers. The local Fan and Han people live together, and the three religions and nine streams are different, which is a mixed world.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the county office, and someone had already reported the county order. I saw an old-fashioned official ask loudly, "Ah Huan, you're not injured, are you?"
Zhao Huan said in a low voice: "It's my brother." Lu Gongzi, remember not to believe every word he says. ”
Lu Heng smiled and nodded.
Zhao Huan lifted the curtain and jumped out of the car, and said coldly: "Fortunately, I didn't die so easily." ”
Lord Zhao, the county commander, said in a reproachful tone: "Didn't I say it, let you stay at home and don't go out and run around! You're good, you actually provoke the thief, how bold are ......you? If you have the slightest accident, how can I be worthy of our father?"
After that, he pulled up the sleeves of his robe and wiped the corners of his eyes.
Zhao Huan snorted coldly and did not answer.
At this time, a woman walked out of the inner hall.
As soon as she appeared, the whole world seemed to darken, and she was the only one left in color. The most well-versed scribes were poor at describing her beauty, and the painters who were the most skilled at painting her face hated the weakness of the brush.
It is really "like a light cloud covering the moon, fluttering like the snow of the wind." "Every move, as much as possible.
Zhao Huan was very affectionate to this woman, ran over and threw herself into her arms, and said coquettishly: "Sister-in-law!"
The woman patted her hair lovingly, and said softly: "Ah Huan, it's good to come back, your brother and I are worried about you." ”
Unexpectedly, the rebellious Zhao Huan actually hummed and said, "I won't run around next time." ”
The woman raised her head and said to Zhao County: "Xianggong, the concubine heard that it was a son with strong martial arts who saved Ah Huan." We should be thankful for that. ”
Zhao Xianling nodded hurriedly and said, "The lady is reasonable. ”
Then he walked up to Lu Heng and gave a deep salute and said, "Thank you for your kindness! Dare to ask your name?"
Lu Heng said: "My surname is Lu. ”
He only said his last name, but he didn't say his first name.
Although Dulan is far away from the emperor, people should also know the name of the new sect master. The identity of the sect master will bring Lu Heng a lot of unnecessary trouble. He's here to investigate the case, or it's better to keep a low profile as much as possible.
The light Qiu BMW and the pearl sword are indeed quite low-key.
Zhao County Ling saw that Lu Heng was only willing to say his surname, but he refused to tell him by his real name, and he felt slightly unhappy in his heart.
At this time, his wife pulled his sleeve and said: "Xianggong, everyone has their own ambitions, since people don't want to say it, why do you force it? Anyway, it's good to know that he saved our family." ”
Zhao Xianling nodded slightly, hugged his fists and said: "In this case, please talk to Lu Gongzi." ”
took Lu Heng into the inner hall. The woman took Ah Huan to change clothes, and the little maid also left after making tea, leaving only Lu Heng and the county commander.
Zhao Xianling scraped the tea leaves with the lid of the bowl, and looked at Lu Heng with a peek.
Somehow, this young man with a quiet smile on his face has an intimidating temperament.
Of course, the most striking thing is the long sword that weighs more than four feet.
Zhao Xianling suddenly remembered a legend, and he asked, "Dare to ask what faction Lu Gongzi's martial arts master inherits?"
Lu Heng smiled faintly: "Self-study." ”
Zhao County Ling was still unwilling, and asked, "Then can you tell me the origin of this long sword?"
"Picked it up. ”
The atmosphere was suddenly awkward. Some people are born with some kind of extremely high talent, which is to be able to talk to death at any time. There is no doubt that Lu Heng is this kind of person.
But fortunately, Zhao Xianling is very good at chatting about the day, and he laughed: "Master Lu, it's not that Zhao offended Your Excellency, it's just that I heard that you are very interested in the case of Tianshui Village, so I took the liberty to ask." Thank you for your understanding. ”
Lu Heng nodded and said, "It's okay, the purpose of my trip is to investigate the case." ”
Zhao Xianling was not surprised when he heard this, but said: "Actually, I should have guessed Your Excellency's identity a long time ago. You don't want to give your name, I guess you were ordered by the upper peak, right?"
Lu Heng smiled and was noncommittal.
Zhao Xianling continued: "Coupled with such a strong martial arts, I am afraid that it must be a military attache above the fifth rank." I guessed right, our county really attracted the attention of the higher-ups - but not because of political achievements, but because of the murder. Alas...... I'm so ashamed. ”
Lu Heng said: "What's this, it's not your fault that there is a case." ”
Zhao County Order: "Lu Gongzi, you don't understand, no matter whose responsibility it is, in the eyes of the people above, it is my county order that is derelict in his duties......"
He lowered his voice and whispered: "If Lu Gongzi is willing to say a few good words for his brother, then it will be ...... Hehe, don't talk about it, you know!"
Lu Heng understood that he was offering a bribe, but he didn't break it, and said with a smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
Seeing that he was confident, Zhao Xianling couldn't help but perk up, and thought: "I thought this person could help just now, and it seems that it is true." During this time, I will have to tie him up, which will be of great benefit to my promotion in the future. ”
But unexpectedly, Lu Heng's words changed and said: "Lord Zhao, I heard that you failed to investigate the case, but you want to put the crime on Princess Yinling and her group, is there such a thing?"
Zhao Xianling was taken aback: "Who told you?"
Lu Heng smiled but did not answer.
Zhao Xian Ling understood after a little thought, and sighed: "It was my precious sister who told Your Excellency, right? It's a pity that you can't believe what she said." ”
Coincidentally, it is exactly the same as Zhao Huan's instructions.
"Oh, why did Lord Zhao say that?" Lu Heng asked.
Zhao Xianling gently tapped his temple: "That girl is sick, she is broken here." ”
He looked at Lu Heng, who didn't believe it at all, and continued: "Let me guess, did she still say that I killed my biological father, and sooner or later she will seek revenge on me or something?"
Lu Heng said: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you. ”
Zhao Xianling sighed: "Master Lu, although my sister looks normal, she is indeed a little crazy.
When my father died, she was still young, so she was greatly stimulated, and she always thought that I had done it. But do you know that although the contemptible people are only shallow in learning, only filial piety is known to everyone.
Behind the strict eyes of the family, the township recommended me as filial piety and honesty, which was recognized by the examiner, so I became a talent without the exam.
Tell me, if I have the slightest misconduct on weekdays, can I be rated as a talent? A well-behaved scholar would suddenly kill his biological father? You are also a person who knows how to investigate cases, have you ever heard of such a case?"
Lu Heng said: "You mean Zhao Huan framed?"
"That's not going to talk about that. Lord Zhao waved his hand, "Actually, I, as an elder brother, see my sister like this, and my heart is really very uncomfortable."
After the fire, she fell seriously ill, and after recovering she said that she had a miraculous ability to bring her soul into someone else's role, to see, hear and think from someone else's point of view.
It's ridiculous to say, it's almost like the shamanic god of jumping. I, Zhao, have always been heirlooms with poetry and books, but unfortunately there is a person who believes in the gods of Rong, which is really sad.
Later, my sister wanted to use this ability to investigate cases. Not to mention, she really caught a few thieves. ”
Lu Heng said: "Doesn't this prove that her method is effective?"
Zhao Xianling shook his head: "It's the opposite. I was confused for a while, and in order to make her happy, I sent the most experienced catcher in the county. Originally, there were just a few people who stole chickens and dogs, didn't they have their hands on them?
But it was precisely that action that fueled Ah Huan's madness and made her more and more immersed in her own world. So, I ...... I, as an elder brother, am also responsible!"
"You mean what she told me was just imagination?" Lu Heng asked.
Lord Zhao nodded: "Not bad." In fact, she would tell that story every time she met a stranger, and no one in our county believed her anymore. I finally met you this time, but I have to say enough. ”
Lu Heng said: "Okay." So what's the matter with finding Princess Silver Bell to blame?"
Zhao County ordered: "The case of Gongzi Lu, Princess Yinling and Sweet Water Village is two things. But this county has to do it all.
Therefore, I came up with a solution: that is, to deliberately slander Princess Yinling and her group, lure them forward, and then wipe them out. Facts have also proved that this strategy is feasible. Hmph, if it weren't for this fog, hundreds of our soldiers would have annihilated them all. ”
Lu Heng said: "Lord Zhao, don't hide it, I did come on the orders of the sect master......
Of course, Lu Heng didn't lie, after all, he was the only one who could order him.
Zhao Xianling was overjoyed in his heart, and guessed that it was indeed right, since this person was directly transferred by the sect master, one sentence is worth 10,000 sentences from others, and whether he can be promoted and make a fortune is all between his words.
But out of caution, he still asked, "But I don't know if Lord Lu has a token of the sect master?"
Unknowingly, he has upgraded Lu Heng from a "son" to an "adult".
Lu Heng took out a jade plate from his body and shook it in front of his eyes, and Zhao Xianling suddenly sweated.
This is like the white tiger card that the suzerain himself presence, and with it, you can cut it first and then play it, act cheaply, and are not subject to the control of the hundred officials. This kind of treatment is not available to everyone.
He lost his voice and said, "The lower officials don't know ...... adults."
Lu Heng smiled and said, "Don't call me an adult, just call me Lu Gongzi." ”
Zhao Xian Ling snorted: "Yes, yes." ”
Lu Heng said: "I'm just here to investigate the case, don't make a noise." Now you tell me all the results of the investigation into the Sweetwater case, and you must not miss anything. ”
Zhao Xianling took a breath and said, "Lord Yu, in fact, the lower officials have already locked up the culprit. ”
"Oh?" This was a bit unexpected by Lu Heng, and he asked, "Who is the murderer...... Or what kind of animal?"
"My lord, animals are just a trick. This is a serial killer who haunts the county, and is called the 'sheep-headed ghost' by the people. ”
"Sheep's head?"
"Hmm. The thief came and went like the wind, and always wore a goat mask when committing crimes. Some people happened to bump into him when he committed a crime, and he still bleated from his mouth, which was extremely terrifying. That's why it's called. ”
"What kind of weapon does he usually use to commit crimes?" Lu Heng asked.
A frightened look appeared on Zhao Xianling's face: "Two knives with hooks." ”
