"Lord Xu, where are we going?" Min Shan asked.

"Arrest the criminal!" Leaving the chamber, Xu Qian had no worries and explained directly.

Yang Feng and other gongs look at Xu Qi'an in surprise. Zhu Guangxiao and song Tingfeng have some ideas in their hearts. Whether it's the case of nitramite mine or the case of xiaoqiguan, they are both involved and know more than others.

If Li Yuchun was here, he might be able to sort out his ideas, but he went to ask Chu Caiwei, the sky warden.

"Why hasn't the chief come back yet? Do you want to have one in the morning?" Xu Qi'an frowned and said, "are you in any trouble?"

As soon as I got on my horse, I saw two yellow horses coming fast. They were Li Yuchun and Chu Caiwei, who was wearing a light yellow dress.

Li Yuchun explained: "miss Caiwei is not in the sky warden. She has gone into the palace. I have been waiting for her at the gate of the imperial city for a long time before she comes out..."

I went to the princess Chang again to eat. This food... Sooner or later, I will let her eat my grandson. Xu Qian has a warm smile: "miss Caiwei, I haven't seen you for a long time. It's getting more beautiful."

Chu Caiwei had a round oval face and a sweet smile. As soon as she wanted to say something, she remembered her identity and the watchmen around her, and then she put on a straight face and said, "well.".

In a hurry, Xu Qi'an made a long story short: "Min Yinluo, take my gold medal to the east gate of the imperial city and catch Zhou Chixiong and Zhou Baihu.

"Others follow me to the Zhou mansion to get people."

I don't know if Zhou Baihu is on duty today, so there are two routes.

Xu Qi'an's arrangement is reasonable. The imperial city is at the foot of the emperor. There will be no conflict and no one dares. However, it is not easy to say that taking people is taking people. You have to have a waist tag to open the way.

So just go to a silver Gong.

If you go directly to Zhou Baihu's house to capture him, he is likely to jump over the wall. Xu Qi'an has just finished his first cut of heaven and earth, and his combat power has declined seriously. Therefore, he needs two silver gongs to accompany him.

On the other side, LV Qing is reporting the situation.

"Mr. Liu, you adults, if it's not unexpected, it's very likely that the demon clan will intervene in this matter."

This sentence changed the faces of the officials present, and sun Shangshu of the Ministry of punishment also frowned.

An official of the Ministry of punishment was not convinced and asked, "what's your basis?"

"A few days ago, I and Mr. Xu once investigated the case of the big Huangshan monster devouring the grey household in Taikang county."

"Goblins devour the grey household?" Mr. Liu frowned.

"For hundreds of years, the local monster has been devouring the mountain. I worked with Mr. Xu to deal with the case and found a clean collected saltpeter mine in Dahuangshan.... "

LV Qing told the adults in detail about the case of the saltpeter mine in Dahuangshan.

This is a very good way to procrastinate, because it's not empty talk, and adults listen to it very carefully without urging.

"So just now when I exchanged with Mr. Xu, I found that the gunpowder may not come from the Ministry of industry, but is related to the Dahuangshan saltpeter mine." Lu Qing said.

The officials of the Ministry of punishment and the government are serious. This case involves the demon tribe. The Jiuzhou demon tribe has two camps: the demon tribes in the northwest and the Wanyao kingdom in the south.

Wanyao kingdom in southern Xinjiang has long been destroyed in Jiazi dangyao, and the remaining evils are still alive.

The demons in the northwest formed an alliance with the northern tribes to fight against Dafeng and the western regions.

Which Demon power is behind the nitramite mine?

Mr. Liu looked at Chen Fu Yin. The latter gave an endorsement to his subordinates: "it is true. The Yamen just accepted the case a few days ago. At that time, it was Constable Lu who was responsible for handling it."

Mr. Liu looked gloomy: "if the nitramite mine could be found earlier, the Sangpo case might not have happened. Why have the cases of goblins and goblins in the middle of the year been suppressed until now? "

LV Qinggang wants to accuse Taikang county magistrate of dereliction of duty, ignoring the life of the gray family, but Chen Fu Yin stops him with a look.

Old Chen sighed: "monsters are powerful. It's hard for Taikang county magistrate to deal with them."

Mr. Liu snorted coldly: "we will report this to your majesty."

Sun Shangshu opened his mouth and glanced at LV Qing: "what is Xu Qi'an going to do?"

He seems to see LV Qing's insidious procrastination. He asks questions directly and doesn't want her to beep more.

Hearing the speech, Duke Liu pondered: "even if the demon clan has gunpowder, how can he hide it from the guards of Dafeng forbidden army and guarding the city and smuggle gunpowder into Sangpo?"

"This is another case." Lu Qing replied.

"Another case?" Everyone was surprised. How many events were involved in the Sangpo explosion?

Lu Qing said: "the day before your Majesty's ancestor worship, Liu Han, the flag officer of jinwuwei, died at home for no reason, which was also handled by Mr. Xu and me. At that time, Mr. Xu speculated that he was killed, but it didn't intersect with the case of saltpeter mine. We didn't think of it."

Jin Wuwei's flag officer was killed... Gunpowder was smuggled into Sangpo... All of you are smart people, and there is no doubt."That surname Xu just now..." the officials of the Ministry of punishment and some government officials stood up from their chairs.

"Just now, Mr. Xu thought about it and left in a hurry." Lu Qingdao.

Sun Shangshu said in a deep voice: "order to arrest all the families of Jin Wuwei. Go quickly!"

Whoa... Everyone stood up and rushed out of the meeting hall and knocked over the chairs.

At this point in the analysis of the case, it is very clear that seizing Jin Wuwei's internal dish is tantamount to making the first contribution.

LV Qing slowly breathed out a breath and tried her best.

If it's just fair competition, LV Qingcai doesn't help Xu Qian in this way. It's just that the other side is in a bad situation. This case is his only hope for atonement.

Lu Qing felt that for the sake of friendship, he would help if he could.

She left the chamber with her colleagues in the government.

Only Duke Liu and his eunuch, sun Shangshu and Chen Fuyin were left in the huge assembly hall.

Duke Liu held out his hand, often with the eunuch immediately blow dry ink, the book to his hand.

Mr. Liu read the content carefully. At the beginning, the two pieces were about the case discussion between the Ministry of punishment and the government. They were mainly about arguments and were rather dry.

It was not until Xu Qi'an joined that the case began to clear up, and the suspect was locked in a stick of incense.

The progress of the case was so fast that Mr. Liu was surprised. According to the normal process, it would take two or three days to connect the two cases of Dahuangshan saltpeter mine and xiaoqiguan.

So it seems that your majesty ordered Xu Qi'an to be the chief official of the watchman's Yamen with deep meaning.

"Xiao Yunzi, from today on, you will stay in the watchman's Yamen and be responsible for urging them to handle the case and deliver the message to me in time."

Justice Liu.

"Yes The little eunuch who made the record took the order.

...

in Zhoufu, the black paint gate is closed.

With Xu Qian's signal, song Tingfeng steps up to the door and claps.

"Open the door! It's a watchman. "

An old voice came from the door: "the master of a hundred households is ill. He doesn't see any guests. Go back."

Song Tingfeng pats the door again, pretends to be dead and doesn't respond.

Be Lao Lai?

Song Tingfeng sneered and stepped on the gate. In the loud sound of "bang", the solid wood gate disintegrated and scattered.

An old man in a blue cloth, wary of hiding in the distance, looking scared at the uninvited guests.

"Leave two people to guard the gate, and the others go in with Li Yinluo and Yang Yinluo." With a big wave of his hand, Xu Qi'an orders the gongs to rush, and he and Chu Caiwei stay behind.

"You're the sponsor. Why don't you rush?" Chu Tsai Wei tilted her head and gave him a look.

"During the national war at Shanhaiguan, did you ever see your majesty attack?" Xu Qi'an looked back at her.

Chu Tsai Wei was speechless. She knew that what he said was wrong, but her less intelligent brain could not come up with a retort for the time being.

"I wanted to give you a powerful pill, forget it." She has a straight face.

"Li Li Wan?"

"It's just the right way to make up for your body. The deficiency of Qi and blood is like this." Chu Caiwei said.

As a geomantic master of the warlock system, when she was healing, Xu Qi'an was still rolling stone locks in the yard.

Just look at the look of Xu Qi'an, you can see that he is losing a lot now.

"Give me one and treat you to dinner in the evening." Xu Qian nudged her.

Chu Caiwei stepped back and threw the porcelain bottle from the deerskin bag: "it's enough for you to use for a period of time."

Chu Caiwei and Xu Qian like this kind of girl. As they walk in, they pour porcelain bottles and eat a brown ball.

The meatball has a strange smell. After chewing it a few times, it's spicy.

After a few seconds, Xu Qi'an felt warm in his stomach, very comfortable, and the feeling of taking off power recovered a lot.

"In advance, this is a negative effect of my unique learning, which does not mean that I am Ruan Xiaoer."

"What is Ruan Xiaoer?"

"It's not a good thing."

Walking and talking, I came to the inner courtyard.

Li Yuchun and Yang Feng came up and shook their heads

The latter added: "all the valuable things in the house have been removed."

Song Tingfeng immediately pulled the old porter over, put a knife around his neck and said, "where's Zhou Chixiong?"

"The master of a hundred families... He, he took his wife and young ladies out of the city to visit their relatives."

"Then why do you say he's sick?"

The old porter's face was frightened, his legs trembled, and he didn't seem to be lying.

Xu Qian asked, "when did you leave?"

"The day when the grand ceremony of ancestor worship ended..." the porter swallowed his saliva and begged, "what crime has the master of one hundred families committed? I don't know. I don't know... "Xu Qi'an waved to song Tingfeng to let him go.

He searched the room again and led his own men into it. Except for some precious antiques, calligraphy and paintings, all the furnishings are intact.

"Zhou Baihu escaped!" Li Yuchun said in a deep voice.

"It's too early to say that." Xu Qian looks at Chu Caiwei.

The goose faced beauty unexpectedly got his meaning, jumped on the roof, opened her bright eyes and scanned every corner of the Zhou mansion.

She's not looking for people, she's searching for something else. The focus is on gardens and stone wells.

A moment later, Chu Caiwei jumped off the roof and shook her head: "there is no corpse hidden in your house, and no one has died here recently... Well, it may have been covered up by special means. You can dig three feet into the ground and search for it. "

"It's not necessary." Xu Qi'an sighed: "death or escape, this clue is broken."

However, they probably ran away, because the people in the family saw Zhou Baihu leave with his family members.

Taking people out of the gate of Zhou's mansion, min Shan rushed over with several gongs. He didn't have time to rein in his horse and yelled: "after the grand ceremony of ancestor worship, Zhou Baihu asked for a long holiday."

His heart sank when he saw that his colleagues were depressed.

"Run away." Yang Feng breathed out a foul breath.

...

as soon as Xu Qi'an left, the people from the Ministry of punishment and the government rushed to the Zhou mansion. When they saw the collapsed gate, they immediately felt cold.

When they were questioned by the family, they learned that the watchman had just rushed to the air, and Zhou Baihu had already escaped from the capital.

The people in the two yamen are inexplicably complicated. They don't know whether to be thankful or sorry.

...

dusk!

Liu Gonggong rushed back to the palace before the city gate closed. With the support of his sons, he changed into casual clothes, took a bath and was drinking tea before dinner.

A little eunuch came in in a hurry and said in a soft voice, "godfather, your majesty sent someone to invite you."

Mr. Liu pinched his eyebrows and said, "I know!"

After drinking water, he asked his son to change his clothes and put on his Python robe. As soon as he stepped out of the threshold, he suddenly thought of something.

"Bring us the file, the one we brought back today."

The little eunuch went back to the house to get it.

All the way to Jingxin hall, after the communication, he was led into the hall and saw Yuanjing emperor in Daopao and long beard.

Yuan Jingdi did not meditate or work. He was holding a book in his hand, but his thoughts were not in the book.

"Liu Rong, I've sent someone to supervise the case. It's been a day. What's the gain?" Yuan Jingdi's tone was flat.

Liu Gonggong was shocked. He had been working in the palace for decades, and even had the temperament of emperor Jing of Yuan Dynasty. The more he took this posture, the more upset he was.

If you ask the truth of the case, your majesty will lose his temper.

Mr. Liu was afraid for a while, and then he was glad. Fortunately, he had been prepared for a long time. Fortunately, today he really got something.

"Your Majesty, this is the summary of today's case. I'm going to show it to you." Mr. Liu took out a thin book from his sleeve.

PS: I have something to do during the day. I'll update it later. I'll change it later. I'll see you in this chapter.
