Chapter 395: Dispute

Xu Jin always thought that the matter of digging down the embankment and murdering Qincha was definitely related to the eunuch Luo Xiang, otherwise he would not have come to Puzhou to find Huang Jin after he and Xiao Huai were flooded. To put it mildly, if he also suffered in the flood, Huang Jin would definitely have been dealt with by Luo Xiang, and the granary deficit case in Yanzhou Mansion would also be hastily concluded, at most just arresting a few magistrates as scapegoats.

Therefore, even if there is no assassination today, Xu Jin vows to take Luo Xiang down and bring him to justice, otherwise how can he be worthy of Xiao Lao, who is still missing, how can he be worthy of those Jinyi guards who died in vain, and how can he be worthy of tens of thousands of people affected by the disaster?

Of course, after all, Luo Xiang was the town guard eunuch in Shandong Province, the nominal supreme military governor, and he obviously couldn't be touched without evidence. And for now, if Luo Xiang wants to move as Xu Jin Qincha, there can be two crimes, the first is the granary deficit case, and the second is the case of digging up the embankment and murdering the Qincha.

It just so happened that the key figures in these two cases were Song Chi, the prefect of Yanzhou, if Song Chi was willing to confess and testify against Luo Xiang, then Luo Xiang would be dead, but unfortunately Song Chi would rather commit suicide than confess to Luo Xiang behind the scenes, which once made Xu Jin very puzzled.

Fortunately, although Song Chi committed suicide by hitting the pillar, he has been rescued by Li Yanwen's father and son, and his injuries have also improved greatly recently, Xu Jin has the confidence to slowly pry Song Chi's mouth open.

Xu Jin handed the firearm back to Jin Baihu, and said lightly: "Tell Gonggong Huang that those who were arrested in the teahouse will be released after interrogating and having no problems." ”

"Okay!" Jin Baihu agreed and withdrew.

Xue Bingxin's lowered eyelashes raised slightly, and she glanced at Xu Jin in some surprise, she originally planned to persuade Xu Jin to let go of those innocent people in the teahouse, but she didn't expect Xu Jin to order the release of people by himself, well, this guy is really different compared to other officials. If the other Qincha were assassinated, I am afraid they would not be released so easily, especially the owner of the teahouse, whether he was guilty or not in the end, in short, he would have to shed his skin if he didn't die!

During the days of getting along with Xu Jin, Xue Bingxin felt the most that this guy was very approachable, without a fight, and sometimes he didn't care if he said something harsh, and Xue Bingxin could feel that this was not a deliberate generosity, but a natural way to get along with people on an equal footing.

In addition, whether it is disaster relief and emergency repair of the embankment, or dealing with the plague incident, or investigating the granary deficit case, Xu Jin's performance meets the standard of "good official" in Xue Bingxin's heart.

At this time, Xue Bingxin couldn't help but secretly ask herself, if Xu Jin was not such a person, even if she lost the bet, would she still be so dedicated to being his bodyguard for a month?

Xue Bingxin was thinking wildly while wiping the bone-punching wine for Xu Jin, and unconsciously, a finger unconsciously drew circles around the swollen part of Xu Jin's ankle.

Xu Jin couldn't laugh or cry a little, and coughed lightly, Xue Bingxin came back to her senses, her pretty face turned red all of a sudden, and the atmosphere was awkward and delicate.

"Thanks to Miss Xue today, I saved the official again!" Xu Jin took the initiative to speak out to ease the atmosphere.

Xue Bingxin's face returned to normal, and she said lightly: "Since this girl promised to protect you for a month, she will naturally be responsible for your safety during this time, but tomorrow is January, and I will leave early the day after tomorrow." Okay, you clean up after yourself. ”

Xue Bingxin stood up after speaking, turned around and walked out of the hall, the ponytail tied at the back of her head at random, swaying from side to side with the movement of her long legs, full of youthful atmosphere.

……

In the evening, a light autumn rain fell. In the C room of the Yuelai Inn, the thin Qiu Fu leaned against the window with his hands on his chest, looking at the gray sky outside with a calm face.

Zhao Quan and Sun Cai sat at the table, the tea in front of them was already cold, and the former looked calm and couldn't see joy or anger. Jing Zhen sat on a stool near the door, boredly playing with a copper coin.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the room, three slow and two fast. Jing Zhen hurriedly stood up and opened the door, and said with a smile: "Senior Sister Xue is here!" ”

A slender figure flashed in, and it was Xue Bingxin, still dressed in men's clothes, and her hair was a little wet from the rain.

Zhao Quan and Sun Cai stood up in unison, and Qiu Fu, who was leaning against the window, also stood up straight, looking at it with a long face, if it weren't for Xue Bingxin today, Xu Suzi would have been hit in the head by the assassin's firecracker, so he was quite annoyed.

"Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Brother Sun, Senior Brother Qiu!" Xue Bingxin called out a little weakly.

Zhao Quan glared at Qiu Fu, who was about to step forward to question, and said in a harmonious voice: "Senior Sister Xue is here, sit down!" ”

Xue Bingxin walked to the table and sat down, Zhao Quan poured a cup of tea for her, and said with a smile: "I was relieved to see that Senior Sister Xue was safe and sound, by the way, how could Senior Sister Xue be with that Xu Jin?" ”

Xue Bingxin originally thought that she would be reprimanded, but she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart when she heard the words, so she told her what had happened one by one.

After hearing this, Zhao Quan couldn't help frowning and said, "So Xu Jin saved you, and you have been working as a guard for him all this time?" ”

Xue Bingxin nodded a little abruptly under Zhao Quan's gaze: "I lost the bet, I promised to be his guard for a month, and I have to keep my promise!" ”

Zhao Quan felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, fortunately, Senior Sister Xue's eyebrows were condensed and scattered, and her virgin blush was obvious, she should still be in perfect shape, otherwise he would have to go crazy.

Qiu Fu couldn't help but say angrily: "Senior Sister Xue, what's the matter with you? If you don't take the opportunity to kill Xu Sourzi, forget it, and even give him back as a guard, have you forgotten that the dog officer killed a lot of us? ”

Xue Bingxin distinguished: "Senior Brother Qiu, Xu Jin saved me, I can't take revenge!" ”

Qiu Fu sneered: "If you have kindness, do you want to repay if you have revenge?" ”

"Naturally, I want to repay it!" Xue Bingxin nodded.

Qiu Fu patted his chest and said: "Okay, just wait for your sentence, today you have saved Xu Suanzi once, which can be regarded as repaying his life-saving grace, and then it's time to take revenge, it just so happens that you also have the opportunity to get close to Xu Suanzi, how about taking his dog life tonight?" ”

Xue Bingxin shook her head and said: "But I also promised to protect him for a month, how can I take the opportunity to kill him, this is not moral!" ”

Qiu Fu smiled angrily and said, "Xue Bingxin, I think you are getting along with that little white face, and you are reluctant to kill him!" ”

Xue Bingxin's pretty face instantly swelled red, feeling as if she had been greatly insulted, and said angrily: "You are talking nonsense!" ”

"What's the matter, I'm annoyed and embarrassed when I say it!"

Zhao Quan's face sank, and he scolded: "Monkey, shut your stinky mouth, don't fucking fart!" ”

Qiu Fu said angrily: "Am I wrong, look at how actively she protected Xu Suzi today, if she hadn't been nosy, the one surnamed Xu would have been killed by that assassin long ago!" ”

"Get out!" Zhao Quanquan snorted coldly, his fingers almost poked under Qiu Fu's nose, and the latter's expression changed, and finally walked out of the room in a huff, and stomped on a stool with one foot.

"Senior Brother Qiu!" Jing Zhen took the opportunity to chase him out, he had a low status in the sect, so he naturally didn't want to get involved.
