It was noon, and although the heavy snow had stopped, there was still a serious atmosphere in Yangzhou Mansion at this moment. Even, the maids and servants in the entire Yangzhou Mansion didn't even dare to make a sound, for fear of accidentally attracting the surrounding officials to look at them.

I don't blame them for being timid, it's just because at this moment it can be said that all the officials and officials of Yangzhou Mansion are all gathered in Yangzhou Mansion. Everyone's face was solemn, everyone was suspicious, everyone could see that they were a little nervous at the moment, if they touched the mold at this time, they didn't have to think about it to know that there was no good end.

The prefect of Yangzhou is dead, and the remaining person in charge is Yangzhou as the imperial history. So this time the person who investigated the case was also this Lord Yushi, whose surname was Zhao, and his single name was a high character.

This is not the Zhao Gao in history, but Yue Chuyun couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this name.

To say that this Lord Yushi came to Yangzhou from the capital half a year ago, and with the emperor's order, even the prefect of Yangzhou had to give him a few thin noodles. So when this Zhao Yushi was investigating the case, everyone on the side tacitly remained silent, and no one answered until Zhao Yushi asked, and then kept silent again as quickly as possible.

The heavy snow had stopped for a short time, but because of the existence of this Zhao Yushi, the people in the entire Yangzhou Mansion accelerated their hand movements. The snow in the yard had cleared up and could not be seen, and there was an extra white cloth in the courtyard on which a corpse lay on it.

"Sure he was killed by an assassin?" Zhao Gao silently stared at the corpse on the white cloth, and then re-covered the white cloth on it.

"Qi Yu then made an autopsy, saying that the body of the prefect was like a wound when he was just killed, and his whole body was stiff, apparently not long after he was killed. The murder weapon was a short sword, such a short sword...... My lord, except for the people in the rivers and lakes, no one will use such a short sword. The man who looked like a headhunter on the side lowered his head and whispered.

"The short sword in the rivers and lakes?"

A sneer flashed on Zhao Gao's face, and then he whispered to himself: "There are only a handful of people in the rivers and lakes in Yangzhou City, if it is really the people in the rivers and lakes, it is easy to find it." ”

"Adult, small ......"

"If you have something, you can talk about it, so why bother. ”

"Your Excellency. The head catcher thought for a while and said, "A few days ago, I heard that the people of the Money Gang bought a house outside Yangzhou City, and the people who lived in it afterwards were also a few people from the rivers and lakes. And the little one also inquired, those people seem to be well-known figures in the rivers and lakes, could it be them. ”

"The house outside Yangzhou City?" Zhao Gao frowned when he heard this, "The house outside Yangzhou City, no one lives in it, but there is only the Baili Villa that few people can afford, you mean that someone bought it, and it is still a person in the rivers and lakes." ”

"Exactly. ”

"What's the name of those people. Zhao Gao asked suddenly.

The catcher thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "The little incompetent, only asked the name of one of them." But that person is always dressed in red, obviously extremely young, but he has white hair, which is extremely strange. So the little one sent someone to the rivers and lakes to inquire a little and found out the name of the person......"

"Piano Master Yue Izumo?" Zhao Gao asked with a smile.

"Lord Goshi knows?" exclaimed the headcatcher.

Zhao Gao shook his head and chuckled: "I know him, he doesn't know me, besides, I met him a long time ago." If it were him, he wouldn't be a murderer. ”

"Mishi-sama ......"

The head catcher wanted to say something, but he didn't expect to be interrupted by Zhao Gao before he could say it.

"I know you're curious why I'm so sure, and the answer is simple, because I know him. As early as a long time ago, I saw him appear next to the prince of Qingping, and he was a close friend of the prince. At that time, he was not a person in the rivers and lakes, so he naturally had a deep friendship with the prince, and now he is investigating a major event for the prince, so he will naturally not be an enemy of the court. ”

After Zhao Gao finished laughing, the head catcher nodded, but who expected Zhao Gao's eyes to flash with sarcasm, and then continued: "And there is a more important reason"

"Because that person is now a master in the Dao realm in the rivers and lakes that no one can leave!"

"What!"

The head catcher was shocked, but Zhao Gao's face was as usual.

"If it's really the moon rising, it's impossible for anyone to see it. With his martial arts, not to mention a Yangzhou prefect, it is the life of half of Yangzhou, as long as he wants, he can be slaughtered in just a moment. ”

"Lord Yushi, is there really anyone who has such a martial arts ability? Half of the people in Yangzhou City have to be thousands, and it takes a thousand knives to kill a person. ”

"Who knows, and he never kills with a knife. Zhao Gao smiled bitterly, "The Mo family in Nanling City was destroyed the year before last, and the time spent was only the time of a piano sound. And if it weren't for his own admission, no one would have found evidence that the Mo family was destroyed by him. Such a person must not be the murderer of the Kochifu, otherwise with the time you and I are talking here, our lives will no longer be our own. ”

The head catcher was horrified when he heard this, and he couldn't help but take half a step back at the moment. Zhao Gao saw it in his eyes, but he didn't say much, just said: "There are other people in the rivers and lakes in Yangzhou City, and the murderer may hide among these people in the rivers and lakes." Check, go through the entire Yangzhou city and check it out for me, and remember, I want the living, not the dead, do you understand?"

The head catcher came back to his senses, and just wanted to speak, but he heard a crisp crash above his head, like the sound of two jade plaques colliding together.

Everyone immediately looked up, only to see that a figure in red had appeared on the eaves above their heads, red clothes and white hair, and a string of white jade bells tied around their waists. His eyes seemed to be smiling, but his gaze stayed on the catcher.

The look of joy in Zhao Gao's eyes flashed, and then he did not hesitate to clasp his fists and salute the figure on the eaves, and then said loudly: "It turns out that Mr. Yue has already arrived." ”

Yue Chuyun's face was indifferent: "If it weren't for the fear of some trouble that would provoke me, I wouldn't have to go on this trip." But I didn't expect that this time the person in charge of Yangzhou City turned out to be a sensible person, and ...... The first time you and I met, it should have been at the musician competition in the capital. When the prince of Qingping came on the first night, you followed the prince of Qingping, am I right?"

Zhao Gao's heart was cold, but the expression on his face was still extremely respectful: "It is really an honor for Mr. Yue to remember him." ”

"Hmm. ”

Yue Chuyun answered, and then ignored Zhao Gao. However, after a while, Yue Chuyun asked with a little puzzlement: "Zhao Yushi, I remember that you are the person next to the prince of Qingping, and the prince of Qingping has always regarded himself as the idle king, why did you even come to Yangzhou now." ”

"It's a long story......"

"Then there is no need to say it, I know that you can come to Yangzhou, and I don't want to know too much about the affairs of the imperial court. ”

Yue Chuyun interrupted Zhao Gao's words with a word, and then looked at the opposite wall without hesitation: "I don't know as much as you about the martial arts in the rivers and lakes, you might as well come over and see which master did it, so as to wash away the suspicion of my Baili Villa." ”

As soon as the words fell, three figures appeared beside Yue Izumo at the same time. Everyone including Zhao Gao was immediately shocked in their hearts, where is this one Dao realm of Yuechuyun, it is clearly four Dao realms, and it is the peak of the Dao realm on a par with Yuechuyun!
