Until dark, Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming did not wait for reinforcements from Shuntian Mansion, but waited for an order from Yin Cai Ruji to "return to the city quickly".

This is what Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming didn't expect, after a whole day of investigation, almost everyone was stoned, although they were unwilling, but they didn't dare to disobey the orders of Lord Fu Yin, so they could only lead the original team to obey the orders and go back to the city.

Also unexpectedly, Wu Zheng always condescended to secretly observe the gang of arresters and officials in Shuntianfu, and naturally found the two people who came to deliver the letter. All the way behind the catchers and officials who returned to the city, and when they came to the gate of the city, Wu Zheng could only choose to retreat back into the mountains.

Because the city gate has long been closed at this time, and the catcher and the official must have a security token that can enter and exit the city gate at any time. In this way, Wu Zheng can't get in no matter what.

"Is it all going to be wasted in an afternoon's work?"

Wu Zheng, who was also unwilling, returned to the mountains and forests with some frustration, found a dry place with leeward and lush artemisia grass, curled up and lay down. Looking up at the deep night sky, I was very depressed.

Father died, grandmother died, and Grandpa Luo Xudong of Houpo Village, who had the grace of saving his life, was also affected by himself, and he didn't know what was going on now. Also, the shopkeeper Duan of Causeway City, I don't know if those who collect money have gone to trouble again.

Even the old man who didn't know that he had a meal was killed by Wu Gang because of himself, and in Wu Zheng's heart, he had already attributed himself to an ominous person.

Otherwise, according to the arrangement in his father's last letter, he came all the way to Shuntianfu to join Tie Xian Niang, but Tie Xian Niang would be put on death row more than two months before his arrival, and Wu Zheng no longer believed in coincidences at this time.

Although Zhen Qingyi, the gentleman of Houpo Village, is also a life-saving person for Wu Zheng, not to mention being Wu Zheng's gentleman for three months? However, Wu Zheng is already trying to erase him from his memory. As for Qinglian, who was once kind and good-looking, Wu Zheng comforted himself instead, maybe forgetting that memory would only be good for Qinglian, at least she would never be affected by an ominous person like herself again.

Along the way, they didn't inquire about the reason why Lord Yin not only did not send reinforcements, but wanted to withdraw them, Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming were a little apprehensive in their hearts. I couldn't help but pray silently in my heart: don't have any more big cases, otherwise, don't say it's a headcatcher, I'm afraid it will be difficult to save my life.

Immediately, I went through the big families in Suncheon City in my mind, and there were no prominent mansions except for the people who were stolen some time ago. In this way, the mood of the two relaxed a little.

The group came directly to the mansion, and as soon as they arrived at the door, they saw the bright lights in the lobby, although they guessed that there should be no big case, Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming's hearts still shook a few times.

Hurriedly bowed his head and walked a few steps, came to the hall and knelt on one knee on the ground, and saluted the palace Yin Cai Ruji.

"Zhang Qian (Zhao Ming) knocks to meet your lord!"

However, it was not as usual, but after the salute, I didn't hear the voice from the government Yin Cai Ruji for a long time. Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming, who were kneeling below, first turned their heads to look at each other, and then slowly raised their heads and looked up.

"Ahh

It just so happened that Cai Ruji, who had been sitting in the lobby for a long time at this time, sighed and threw a piece of paper in his hand down.

"See for yourselves. ”

When Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming picked up the paper on the ground and looked down from their heads, they came down in a cold sweat.

It turned out that this piece of paper was written by Liu Shiqing, the imperial master of the dynasty, and there was not much content, but it was said: A copy of "Jade, Female Heart, and Sutra" was omitted from the list of books stolen last time, which was a peerless martial arts secret, and because the family did not know the details, it was not reported at that time.

Seeing this, the two of them didn't ask, they knew that it must be Taishi Liu Shiqing who had returned to Shuntian City.

"My lord, Master Liu, he ....... ”

"Taishi Liu entered the city at the end of the evening and sent someone to send the paper. Now Master Taishi is sitting in the Liufu waiting for news and results. ”

"My lord, we think that the boy who escaped from the city today should have a major ....... ”

"Shut up, don't think that this mansion can't see through the little calculations in your hearts. Usually I don't have to worry about you, but when is it, the Taishi is sitting and waiting in the house, is he waiting, you know?!"

Cai Ruji's roar suddenly dumbfounded Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming. All of them hit the bottom and didn't dare to raise their heads to speak anymore.

"The government has sent garrisons into the city to assist in the city-wide search. I hope you don't let Master Liu sit and wait too long, otherwise you will know the consequences. ”

Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming left the lobby, although there was almost no respite at the end of the day, and they didn't even bother to eat dinner, but at this time, they couldn't take care of it. He led all the arresters and servants of the government office, and with the assistance of the garrison troops transferred into the city, they separately launched a house-to-house search in Suncheon City overnight.

In Suncheon City, which was noisy for a while, many families, especially most of those who had no power and power, were brutally treated by the arresters and officials, whether it was money or goods, as long as they could see it, they would bring some with them. The crowd could only dare to be angry but not speak.

However, it is a different matter entirely for those who are slightly more powerful, except that they are symbolically in the gatehouse, at most in the front yard, and after accepting the benefits from their masters, they turn around and leave.

According to the division of labor discussed by the two, Zhang Qian is in charge of the east of the city, Zhao Ming is in charge of the west of the city, and the dividing line is the main street in the center of the city - Tongtian Street. And Liu Taishi's hometown in Shuncheon City, Liufu, is located at the northeast corner of the intersection of Tongtian Street and the east-west main street, Sunrise Street, located in the center of the city.

At dawn, Zhao Ming and Zhang Qian respectively led the men and horses to meet in Liufu.

Liu Jin, the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion, hurriedly ran out to take a look, and saw that the two catchers were empty-handed, so they turned around and went back.

Just when Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming were hesitating whether to enter the Liufu Mansion to report to Taishi Liu, the housekeeper Liu Jin walked out again, and waved his hand to let the family open the two doors of the Liufu Mansion to the end, and then clasped his hands into fists and said to Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming:

The master instructed the villain to open the door of the mansion and ask the two catchers to lead people into the mansion to search. ”

"This ,......。 ”

When Zhang Qian and Zhao Ming heard this, they all gasped, and Taishi Liu seemed to be really annoyed. In this way, it is clear that it is necessary to do business.

"Steward Liu, the Taishi Mansion naturally does not need to be searched, and even if the thieves are bold, they will never dare to hide in the Taishi Mansion. ”

"Yes, Steward Liu. ”

"Don't, don't say that, two headcatchers. Master Taishi is now sitting in the living room waiting, if the thief can't be caught, and the entire Suncheon City is the only one who hasn't searched the Taishi's Mansion, who can say clearly at that time? ”
