As soon as Liu Shuyi beat the drum and shouted grievances, the "Beiliang County Order" Lord Xi Qinggu greeted him.

Master Xi assured Liu Shuyi with his chest: Lord Shen, the new court officer who came to supervise the case of "theft of tribute silver", has clean sleeves, is famous for his honesty and ability, and has the reputation of "Shen Qingtian", and will definitely enforce the law impartially and give the "Plum Blossom Dart Bureau" a fair.

Liu Shuyi said: "Then bother the eldest master to take me to see Lord Shen." ”

Xi Qinggu smiled: "That's the best, Master Shen, he is knowledgeable, and he talks like a fuss...... I'll take you there. ”

Xi Qinggu was very enthusiastic about Liu Shuyi, polite, and very enthusiastic. And he was humble and hospitable, specially prepared a table of banquets to entertain, and invited Ao Jintie, the chief catcher who had some personal relations with the "Plum Blossom Dart Bureau", to accompany him.

In the midst of humility, I suddenly heard someone laugh and said, "Qinggu, then am I late, or too early?"

Liu Shuyi turned around, only to see a person rushing out of the ya, that person's face was square, clear and elegant, slightly dark skin, big eyes and thick eyebrows, face with righteousness, five locks of long hair and chest, there was a prestige without anger, very graceful, just listen to haha, and strode into the hall.

Liu Shuyi's eyebrows were slightly raised, and the man had stretched out a hand: "Hello, my name is Shen Zhongxia." ”

The three people at the table stood up one after another, and Shen Zhongxia laughed and said: "Brother Qinggu, I came here in a hurry, don't you be surprised?" The family was going to report it, but as soon as I heard that Miss Liu was also there, I couldn't wait, so I asked them to excuse themselves from the vulgar etiquette and broke in...... I'm not an uninvited guest, am I?

Xi Qinggu said: "Lord Qincha came to the cold house, and he missed the distance to welcome ......."

Shen Zhongxia frowned and laughed: "As long as the three of them don't see anything outside, then it's ...... In front of the court, we all have our own place, here, we are friends, unconventional!" he spoke, his black hair fluttering, looking forward to pride, very sprinkled, very majestic.

The three of them nodded yes, Xi Qinggu asked the chief to sit down for Xiong Qingfeng, Ao Jintie and ordered people to prepare more chopsticks, and greeted with a smile on his face: "Everyone eat and drink well, drink well and eat well." “

In terms of official rank, Shen Zhongxia is naturally much higher than Xi Qinggu and Ao Jintie, once he sat down, there was a person beside him, who quickly passed through the hall, slid to the dark place of the curtain in front of the window like a float, and stood against the pillar without saying a word.

The man was dressed in a long white robe, with a hemp rope casually tied around his waist, and his figure appeared tall and thin, and he wore a bamboo hat on his head, which hung low, and covered his face almost seven-tenths of the way in shadow, except for a sharp chin with a short bluish black mustache.

This person's description is not much, but as soon as he walked in, Liu Shuyi's heart was greatly agitated.

Xi Qinggu was stunned and said, "Who is that, why don't you come and ...... together?"

Shen Zhongxia whispered in a kind of officialdom habitual whisper: "He is a celebrity next to Chai Xiaowangye, and we are just other people's subordinates, who dares to provoke him like him?"

"'Seven Killing Star Monarch' Guan Tu Dog. Liu Shuyi stared at the bamboo hat guest and said his name in one word.

I saw the person in the shadow of the curtain, sitting quietly, with an oil-paper umbrella under his arm, as if he had not heard the conversation in this compartment at all.

But Liu Shuyi felt that there was always a burning heat on his back, like the feeling of "thorns in his back"; Shen Zhongxia's words had returned to the topic: "Qinggu, what eyebrows do you have in charge of investigating the case of official salary?"

Xi Qinggu said ashamedly: "Report to your lordship......" wanted to stand up, but Shen Zhongxia stopped: "This is me asking you privately, it's not a business matter, don't care about this false courtesy!"

Xi Qinggu smiled bitterly: "There has been no progress, Mei Tian Ding Mei old dart head is now in prison, soft and hard, refusing to confess the location of the silver ......"

Shen Zhongxia's face sank, and he sighed after a while: "Qinggu, this case is being chased tightly, this time our brother is only talking about righteousness, of course it doesn't matter...... But there are only two days left for you to solve the case, and I am afraid that I will not be able to afford it at that time. ”

Xi Qinggu said in a panic: "My lord's words are serious. ”

Liu Shuyi left the table and said: "Wronged! Lord Qincha, please be aware that the case of the robbery of the official salary of the tribute and silver has nothing to do with our 'Plum Blossom Dart Bureau'!

Shen Zhongxia pondered for a moment and said, "Whether it is wronged or not, Ben Qincha wants to interrogate the criminal Mei Tianding before making a final decision." He raised his glass and said, "Miss accompanies the official to make this toast." ”

Liu Shuyi also said: "The people also respect the adults." ”

When the wine glass touched his lips, Liu Shuyi inadvertently glanced at the next plate of the "Seven Killing Star Monarch" Guan Tugou.

The man still stood still, unmoved.

At this moment, I suddenly heard the cell boss outside shouting, "My lord, the prisoner has been brought." ”

Shen Zhongxia raised his eyebrows and said, "Take it." ”

The cell boss replied, "Yes." The door was pushed open, and the mantle-haired, full-body torture instrument was pushed in.

"Father-" Liu Shuyi cried out in distress, and Shen Zhongxia had already shouted and asked: "Mei Tianding, how did you be instructed by Bu Qingyi, how did you collude with the 'Tsing Yi Building', how did you guard and steal, steal money and kill people, and plot to rebel, and you didn't recruit them one by one!"

Mei Tianding knew that he was not lucky, and said with a miserable smile: "I was wronged, I didn't steal money and kill people, and the people of the 'Plum Blossom Dart Bureau' didn't guard and steal themselves." ”

Shen Zhongxia said: "Everyone says that he himself is wronged, a person kills someone, and they will say that he is drunk and defended himself by mistake, and a person rapes someone, and also says that the woman seduces him...... The silver was obviously lost in the escort of the 'Plum Blossom Dart Game', who would it be if it wasn't you?!"

Chu Mei Tianding said coldly: "In the battle of 'Fenglindu', 'Plum Blossom Dart Bureau, twenty-seven of the forty-one people died desperately, this is not proof!"

Shen Zhongxia smiled and said: "That's just their uneven distribution of spoils, making trouble and killing each other!"

Mei Tianding shouted: "Dog officer, if you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse!" grabbed the iron chain with both hands and pulled it hard, and it collapsed several times, and the iron chain tied to his body was actually torn and broken by him!

Shen Zhongxia was both shocked and angry, and shouted: "Kill!"

Shen Zhongxia only talked about the word "kill", "Seven Killing Star Monarch" Guan Tu Dog, shaped like a swift owl flying up, pounced, in an instant, Mei Tianding and he slapped him, and flew to Huateng with his strength.

He stretched his fingers, and he was about to pounce on Hua Teng, when suddenly, a flash of light flashed in mid-air, and a knife slashed into the air!

The power and speed of this knife were so fierce and fast that it was like a lightning flash, but there was no sound, Mei Tianding let out a deep sigh, slapped his palms, and grabbed the knife surface, and both of them fell down at the same time.

- The person who shot turned out to be the adopted daughter Liu Shuyi.

She stared at her father and said sadly: "Killing the court officials without permission, even if we have a great grievance, we can't tell it!"

Mei Tianding sighed and said: "The sky has eyes, and the snow flies in June; the court has no way, and the officials force the people to be in turmoil!"

Suddenly, there was a "boom" on the roof, followed by a "hoo, hoo", dust and rubble, and a large piece of dust fell, only to hear someone shouting loudly: "Chief dart, we are here to save you!" followed by the sound of a fierce fight.

The oil-paper umbrella under the armpit of the "Seven Killing Star Monarch" Guan Tu Dog suddenly opened, and with a "bang", a man in a tightly buttoned suit fell to the ground in blood, and the "big ring knife" in his hand also fell aside.

Shen Zhongxia's expression was pale, and he let out a scream while waving the "judge's pen", and a brave man stabbed him down on the spot!

Xi Qinggu lowered his voice to Liu Shuyi and said, "Quick! Take me hostage!"

Liu Shuyi was slightly stunned, slapped his cane with one palm, and grabbed his throat with one hand.

Behind Guan Tugou, the "Seven Killing Star Monarch", followed by three men, one wielded the "Meteor Hammer", one held the "Crescent Shovel", and the other took the "Tiger Head Hook", and handed out the stab to the back of Guan Tugou!

Guan Tugou Huo Ran turned around, and didn't see how he moved, he had already kicked one person away, grabbed the "crescent shovel", and held the "tiger head hook", Liu Shuyi shouted coquettishly: "Stop!" Guan Tugou dropped the "crescent shovel" and flashed aside.

Liu Shuyi put the "lancet" on Xi Qinggu's neck and said sharply: "If you do it again, I will kill this dog official!"

At this time, Shen Zhongxia and Ao Jintieji outflanked one after the other, staring at each other, but they didn't dare to make a move.

Xi Qinggu is a local parent official with real power, and he is also one of the seventy-two protégés of the "Power Gang" under Cai Jingmen, the first minister of the dynasty, and there are many friends in the court.

Shen Zhongxia hurriedly shouted: "Miss Liu, slow down!"

Ao Jintie also said anxiously: "There is something to say, there is something to say!"

Liu Shuyi's face turned, he looked at his adoptive father, and then at the three men who were eagerly waiting in the hall, took a long breath, and said, "Don't kill him, it's okay, let's go!"

Shen Zhongxia's face immediately showed a look of embarrassment, but Ao Jintie immediately said: "It's okay to let you go, but you have to let go of the eldest master first." ”

Liu Shuyi said categorically: "No, Master Xi has to go with us, and only let him come back when he is in a safe place." ”

Shen Zhongxia's face showed hesitation, and said, "Liu ...... Miss Liu, you can't be untrustworthy!"

Mei Tianding snorted coldly and said, "The work that we said in the 'Plum Blossom Dart Bureau', when does it not count?!"

Shen Zhongxia and Ma Ao Jintie said in unison: "Yes, yes, brothers on the rivers and lakes, the person who doesn't talk about the Mei family has no regrets in life and death!"

The three men in the room, their faces had been tense, but now they were more relaxed, two of them went to inspect the two companions who had fallen to the ground, and the remaining big man with a "tiger head hook" said excitedly: "Chief darthead, eldest lady, let's go!"

Liu Shuyi said: "I have told you not to come, you are just disobedient!"

The dart master with the "tiger head hook" said: "Not only are we here, but the girl Ruoshuang and the son of Yanagi are also here." ”
