The atmosphere in the yamen of the Criminal Division became surprisingly good. The new criminal officer is a genius at solving cases, and difficult and unsolved cases are solved with a single move. The imperial court commended, and the yamen of Kaifeng Mansion looked sideways, this feeling was surprisingly comfortable.

In particular, these old officials and old catchers were kicked out by other yamen like kicking a ball, and they were all some people who disliked waste, and this time they were quite angry.

A group of people walked in front of people, their waists were straight, and the posture could be described in one sentence: 'You used to ignore me, but now Lao Tzu tells you to be unclimbable.' ’

After witnessing the methods used by the criminal officer to solve the case, everyone's confidence in Lin Jue increased greatly, and their enthusiasm also rose. There was a sudden upsurge in the yamen to solve the case with all their might. Don't look at the old servants and old catchers who are getting old, but if you really want to cheer up, you have a ruthless energy. For a time, the enthusiasm for investigating the case became the norm, and the brainstorming in the yamen also occurred frequently. In the past, they used to get together to talk about the shortcomings of the parents and the short-term words, but now they actually start to discuss the case and discuss the business. It's a real spectacle.

Lin Jue was also in a good mood. The six cases that were solved laid the foundation for his position as a criminal officer. In this situation, his position is safe for the time being, because he has proven his ability to solve cases to the court, although the cracking of these six cases is a bit of a fluke. These six cases alone are not enough, Lin Jue also knows it in his heart. Zhu Zhirong also pointed out this point when he talked to Lin Jue, and Zhu Zhirong's implication was that Lin Jue wanted Lin Jue to solve several serial murder cases and vicious cases of mass death, and if he could solve a few such cases, it would be regarded as completing the initial agreement between the two.

Zhu Zhirong's meaning naturally includes the case of the Thirty Mile Bridge where Lin Jue sat down, that case caused a sensation in the capital, and the case was not solved, and the pressure was still there. Zhu Zhirong was also unable to cope with the progress of the inquiries at both ends in the last three days. However, Lin Jue was unable to solve the case. Could it be that he ran to Zhu Zhirong to tell him that he was the culprit?

Lin Jue also understands that he must work hard to solve several vicious serial murder cases in order to make his position more stable.

However, at this time, it was almost mid-March, and Lin Jue still had one of the most important things to do, that is, to go back to Hangzhou to pick up the little county lord to come to Beijing. Guo Caiwei wrote to say that she missed Lin Jue, and at the moment the spring flowers are blooming, and she can't stay in Hangzhou. Lin Jue replied to the letter and made an appointment to pick her up in Hangzhou in April, calculating the round-trip itinerary, and at this time he was ready to leave.

The advantage of being a criminal officer is that Lin Jue doesn't have to go to ask for leave when he leaves, and he can leave the capital in the name of investigating the case under the pretense of public help, so Lin Jue can leave at any time. Lin Jue counted the days, and planned to hold on for a few more days, and then set off after March 20, so that he would arrive in Hangzhou from the waterway in more than ten days, and then Shi Shiran would return to Beijing in Hangzhou for a few days, and the time would be in time. However, the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, and the arrival of one person made Lin Jue have to go on the road in advance.

On the evening of March 12, Lin Jue rode home from the yamen on horseback and walked to the west wall of his mansion, where he found a figure holding his head at the base of the wall. It was a fat girl, dressed in a flower dress in the dirt, and at first glance she was a peasant girl from the countryside who had never seen the world.

Lin Jue rode past her and turned his head to look at the girl, who hurriedly turned around and left, but Lin Jue almost screamed in shock.

Soon after, several guards came out of the Lin family's mansion, surrounded the girl at the mouth of the alley, and dragged the girl into the house with her hands and feet covered and her mouth covered. The girl struggled and fell, and the dagger pinned to her waist fell to the ground. It's a pity that she is the opponent of the guards, and she was dizzy and dragged into the house with a cloth bag.

When the cloth bag on her head was removed, the dazzling light made the girl unable to open her eyes. Someone next to her asked her to kneel, but she refused to kneel, and someone kicked her in the crook of the leg, and she knelt down unconsciously. At the same time, her eyes also saw the situation around her, and she was led to a brightly lit and elegant and tidy hall, with a bunch of fierce men standing high and low beside her. On a big chair in front of him, a handsome young man in a blue official uniform sat staring straight at him.

The girl panicked when she was watched, and hurriedly shouted, "What are you doing in broad daylight? Is there any royal law? ”

"Wang Fa? My son-in-law is the king's law. A man shouted, "Say, what are you doing sneakily next to my house?" What's the intention? ”

"I ...... I didn't, I passed by here......" The girl protested.

"Phew, don't you go to Xiangguosi Street, but go to the alleys around our house? He also hid next to the house and peeked. What is the intention? If you don't say anything, they will kill you with a knife. The man lifted his dangling waist knife and dangled it in front of the girl's eyes.

"I ...... Is this your home? I'm taking a shortcut by myself, can't I? This is the capital, are you people in the capital so unreasonable? The girl argued.

"Ahem!" The handsome young man on the big chair coughed twice, and said in a hoarse voice: "Little girl, tell me honestly, save hardships." ”

The girl was quite disappointed, the handsome young official had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but this opening, it was such a hoarse voice, which suddenly ruined the whole feeling, making people feel very uncomfortable.

"Tell me what? I, a common man, passed through here, and you caught me. If you are an official, can you be so lawless? The girl blushed and exclaimed.

"Hey, hey, hey." The handsome young man let out a strange grin, which made people get goosebumps all over their bodies.

"Are you a common man? Who are you fooling? Ordinary people walk with daggers on their bodies? How much more you are a young woman. Don't you say yes? Then let me guess who you are. Not...... Recently, there is not a lot of peace in the capital, there are always some people who have mixed into the capital to do bad things, yes, at first glance, you are not a person from the surrounding of the capital, could it be that you are a bandit in the Funiu Mountain cottage that has been very fierce recently? Yes, you must be, do you admit it or not. ”

The girl almost fainted, feeling remorse and shock. I didn't do anything, I covered it up very well along the way, how did I get my identity broken by the person in front of me? What's going on? From Funiu Mountain to the capital, it is not without encounters along the way, but no one recognizes themselves as Funiu Mountain at a glance

This is so strange, isn't it?

"You don't speak? It seems that I guessed correctly, it turns out that you are a bandit from Funiu Mountain. Tell me, what are you doing in the capital? What's the fuss about? The handsome official shouted.

The girl gritted her teeth and exclaimed, "What are you talking about? I can't understand anything. What Funiu Mountain? I've never heard of this place at all. ”

The handsome official shouted: "You still deny it, I tell you, the court is not merciful to kill one of you bandits." But...... I'm soft-hearted. So, let's make a deal, you tell me the deployment of troops in Funiu Mountain, draw a detailed map of the mountain, tell us the situation in the mountain, and I will spare your life, what do you think? ”

The girl shook her head and exclaimed, "I don't know what you're talking about?" ”

The handsome official's color changed, and he shouted loudly: "It seems that you are toasting and not eating and drinking, I know your details very well, are you called a stupid girl, are you following a female bandit leader named Gao Muqing?" Your details have long been clear to us, and you dare to deny it. ”

The girl opened her mouth in shock again, and her bottom line was really clear to the other party. She is one of Gao Muqing's female guards who came to the capital from Funiu Mountain, named Silly Girl. The stupid girl thought that she had entered the capital unconsciously, but she didn't expect to be recognized by the imperial court a long time ago. It's really over now, his mission was not completed, but he was recognized by the imperial court. I'm too stupid, I'm too stupid, I don't care if I'm dead, and this time it's ruined the big thing in Luoyan Valley.

When he was remorseful and blamed himself, the young official shouted again: "If you dare not confess, I will order someone to scratch your face." Are you afraid? You have no other way out but to work with me. Don't give me an account of the number of people and fortifications of your cottage, and don't leave anything out of it. ”

The stupid girl shook her body and looked frightened. What a young girl fears most is that she will be ruined, which is a more terrible thing than killing herself. Silly chicks are no exception. Looking at the handsome face of the young official in front of her, the stupid girl seemed to have seen the devil. She knows that today is impossible to escape, revealing the secret of the cottage? That's impossible. Anyway, it's a dead end, and it's better to die than to be threatened by him with a cut in the face.

Thinking of this, the stupid girl shouted: "Dazhai master, the stupid girl has gone." The body jumped up and slammed into the long knife held by a man beside him, intending to kill himself. However, she failed to do so, the man's body flashed, and the stupid girl crashed into the air. The body was quickly controlled.

"Let me die, let me die." The silly chick shouted.

"What a strong woman. Would you rather die than betray the bandit cottage? What exactly did they give you? So that you are not even afraid of death? The young officer said loudly.

"Phew! Kill me, don't think I betrayed Dazhai, how do you dog officials know the friendship of the people in our cottage. Even if you die today, you don't want me to tell me a word about the secret of the cottage. It's better to kill me. But I'm telling you, in the future, the lord of my village and the military advisors will go to the capital and cut off the heads of all your dog officials. The stupid girl scolded loudly.

"Hahaha, don't be ashamed, what a big village owner, but a bandit leader. What bullshit strategist? Bandits and military divisions? I'm afraid it's a dog-headed military advisor. The young officer laughed.

"You are not allowed to be disrespectful to my lord and military advisor. The master of my village is the best owner of the village, and my military advisor is the most capable person in the world. He...... He ...... "The stupid girl suddenly stopped."

"What about him? Why don't you say it? Is he really that good? The young officer frowned.

The silly girl snorted and said, "Of course, I can't tell you enough about his strengths." I don't want to tell you either. In short, if I die today, they will all avenge me in the future. ”

The young official seemed to be a little frightened, and frowned: "Your family's big village master and military advisor are so powerful, if I kill you, they will definitely take revenge on me." It's better for the sake of your family's military advisor to be so powerful, I'll let you go. ”

The stupid girl couldn't believe her ears and looked at the young official in dismay. With a strange smile on his face, the young official suddenly stood up, waved his hand at the people around him, and said, "You guys stand down." ”

When the seven or eight guards heard this, they all retreated, and the stupid girl's heart thumped, and her eyes were fixed on the young official, not knowing what he wanted. But I saw that he suddenly turned his back and turned over, raised his hand and made a gesture on his face, like a cat washing his face, and as if he was wiping his rouge.

After a moment, the young official finally turned around and chuckled softly in a magnetic voice, "Silly girl, see who I am?" ”

The stupid girl's gaze fell on his face, and the next moment the stupid girl let out an octave of exclamation, as if she had seen a ghost.

"Military ...... Strategist! How so? How could it be ......" The stupid girl's lips trembled, and she couldn't speak.

The young officer laughed and said, "It's me, it's me." Silly girl, how can I recognize you except me? Silly girl, you're freaking out. ”

The stupid girl looked at the face of the military advisor in front of her blankly, and then watched as the military advisor tore off a mask, revealing the handsome face from before, and switched over as if it was a trick. The stupid girl finally believed that the fierce and vicious official before was the military advisor himself.

The silly girl sat down on the ground and cried.

"Strategist, you bully me, you scare me. How can you scare me like that? I went back to the mountain to complain to the lord of Dazhai, saying that you were teasing me, the military advisor. I was scared to death. Woooooooooooo ”

Lin Jue laughed and stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, silly girl, I just wanted to joke with you." I want to see how you will cope if you are caught by officers and soldiers. You've done a great job and I'm satisfied. I'm sorry, the military advisor apologized to you. ”

The silly girl burst into tears, twisted her body and kicked her legs on the ground and cried: "The silly girl has suffered a lot along the way, and she came to the capital to find the military advisor in fear, and the military advisor scared me like this." Woo woo, I was so scared that I almost peed my pants just now. The military advisor is too bad, I don't care, I want to sue. Woooooooo ”

Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "My fault, don't cry, don't cry, the eldest girl's family, crying like this will be laughed at." ”

The silly girl wiped away her tears, stared at Lin Jue's face, and suddenly burst into tears again.

"What's going on? Silly girl. ”

Lin Jue scratched his head and said.

"The military advisor deceived us, the military advisor is obviously a good-looking appearance, but he is pretending to be ugly on the mountain, how can the military advisor deceive us? Woooooooo The silly girl wiped her tears and cried.

Lin Jue laughed and said, "Silly girl, don't you know my true face now?" Don't cry, your face has become a big face. Let's go to the back house, you take a shower, change your clothes, eat something, and then get down to business. You shouldn't just come to the capital to hang out. ”

Hearing this, the silly girl hurriedly got up and said: "Of course there is something serious, I can't tell you clearly, the master of the village has a letter, I will give it to you." ”

After saying that, the stupid girl stretched out her hand and began to undress, and suddenly her face turned red and said, "The military advisor turned around." ”

Lin Jue was speechless, knowing that the letter must be hidden in a close place, so he hurriedly turned around. I heard a sound of Sisuosuo, and the sound of the cloth tearing, and finally the voice of the silly girl sounded.

"Okay, military advisor, the letter of the lord of the village is here."

Lin Jue turned his head. The stupid girl was disheveled, the torn strips of cloth hanging from the inside of her clothes, and she held a white cloth handkerchief in her hand. There was a faint handwriting on the cloth. Surely the letter is hidden in the hem of her garment.

"Silly girl, I ordered someone to take you to the back house, and you will come to see me in the study after you finish packing." Lin Jue stretched out his hand to take Bupa and kicked it in his arms, and shouted for someone to lead the silly girl to the back house.

……

In the study, under the candlelight, Lin Jue sat on the side of the bookcase with a sinking face. The white handkerchief with handwriting on the other side was spread on the table, which was the handwritten letter written by Gao Muqing.

Lin Jue had just finished reading the letter, and he was very anxious at the moment, he never expected that in just a few months, there had been drastic changes in Funiu Mountain, and Luoyan Valley had fallen into a crisis.

Gao Muqing's letter recounted all the changes that had occurred in Funiu Mountain since last winter. Qin Donghe, the lord of the Black Wind Village, took advantage of an adventurous action to rob the grain, and controlled the large and small cottages to attach themselves to him. And in Heifeng Village, he held a meeting of the Funiu Mountain Zhai Alliance, announced that he was the new leader of the Zhaizhai Alliance, and led the villagers to capture Taoyuan Dazhai. Since then, he has begun his ambitious journey to dominate Funiu Mountain.

Since the beginning of the year, Qin Donghe has continued to use troops, using force to force the cottages to attach themselves to him, and those who are unwilling to obey will raise troops to attack, and the means are cruel. Qiu Zhengchun, the owner of the Yehuling Dazhai on the west side of Funiu Mountain, refused to attach to the dangerous terrain of the cottage, Qin Donghe led 4,000 soldiers to attack the Yehuling Dazhai for five days and five nights, and finally Qiu Zhengchun's whole family of 19 people from the hips were poured into the mouth with bamboo, and stood on the cliff wall on the top of the mountain. This is the most cruel form of punishment, which is called 'looking to the sky'. It can be described as the most brutal and tyrannical. More than 200 soldiers from the Yehuling Fortress were also pushed into the cliff and fell to their deaths. Qin Donghe threatened that this was the result of resistance, and whoever dared to resist would have no way to live.

All of a sudden, the bloody rain and bloody wind in Funiu Mountain, after the Yehuling Dazhai, from west to east, from south to north, more than 20 Dazhai fell into the hands of Qindong River in a few months.

When Qin Donghe attacked the large and small cottages everywhere, there were different opinions on whether to interfere in the Luoyan Valley Village, and Qin Donghe sent the deputy owner of the village to Luoyan Valley to ask Gao Muqing to see Gao Muqing, promising that he would never attack the Luoyan Valley Village, saying that Heifeng Village was forcibly annexed this time for the unification and harmony of the original Funiu Mountain villages, and to change the previous disadvantages of being scattered and unable to resist the officers and soldiers. It is said that Luoyan Valley Dazhai did not belong to the old department of Houshu in the first place, so Heifeng Village will definitely not do anything to Luoyan Valley. As long as the tall village owner does not make a move, the Black Wind Village will definitely not attack Luoyan Valley.

Gao Muqing, who was already hesitating, got such a guarantee and decided not to interfere. Liang Qi, the owner of Erzhai, and others made several suggestions, but Gao Muqing did not agree. Luoyan Valley Dazhai set a strategy of defending the village with all its might, protecting the people and property of Luoyan Valley, strengthening the fortifications, building fortresses, and waiting for the battle.

At the beginning of February, Bao Meng of Beishan Dazhai asked Luoyan Valley for help, because Heifeng Village had attacked the mountain of Beishan Dazhai. Gao Muqing weighed it again and again and refused. Bao Meng took refuge in Heifeng Village in order to survive, and the forces of Heifeng Village finally arrived on the side of Luoyan Valley.

In mid-February, Qin Donghe sent someone to send a handwritten letter to Luoyan Valley, asking Luoyan Valley Dazhai to hand over Mu Buping, the owner of the second village of Taoyuan Dazhai who had been hiding, to Heifeng Village for disposal, and to hand over all the people and thousands of soldiers who had fled to Luoyan Valley Dazhai for refuge in the past few months. Moreover, it put forward a requirement to supply 30,000 stone of grain to Heifeng Village every year in Luoyan Valley Dazhai. Qin Donghe told Gao Muqing that these three conditions must be agreed, otherwise he will break the Luoyan Valley Dazhai and tear up the previous promise.

Gao Muqing's self-preservation finally let this fire burn to the head of Luoyan Valley Village. Of course, Gao Muqing would not agree to these three conditions. So after the deadline was up, Qin Donghe launched an attack without any scruples. The first thing they captured was the Shirenshan Village, which itself had few defensive manpower and was far away from the village, so it was easily captured by Qin Donghe at the cost of a few hundred people. Yuan Lang, the master of Sanzhai stationed in Shiren Mountain, and more than 300 Luoyan troops were all killed in battle. After that, the forces of Heifeng Village flooded all the territory of Funiu Mountain like a tide, leaving only the east and west peaks of Luoyan Valley and a huge valley, which existed as lonely as an island in the sea.

Around the line of Pheasant Ridge, at the southern end of Luoyan Valley and the west peak, the fight is going on all the time. In the past 20 days, Qin Donghe gathered all the soldiers and launched a frantic attack. Fortunately, the fortifications of Luoyan Valley are strong, and the combat effectiveness of the Luoyan Army should not be underestimated, but it is not so easy to take Luoyan Valley in one fell swoop. However, Qin Donghe was determined to take Luoyan Valley, and regardless of the casualties of the villagers, he gave the order to attack to death. even did not hesitate to drive the people to attack the mountains as the vanguard.

With five times the strength of their own troops, coupled with an attack that is not afraid of death, the Luoyan Army also feels a huge pressure. With the increase in casualties of the Luoyan army, the consumption of bows and arrows and other materials increased, and the fatigue of personnel and dangers continued to increase after protracted battles.

One night at the end of February, the tired defenders were almost broken through the fortifications at the south entrance of the Luoyan Valley, if it weren't for Liang Qi and 300 Luoyan army brothers desperately blocking the gap, and Bai Yushuang, who was recuperating in the cottage, also helped, almost causing a catastrophe.

In this case, Gao Muqing realized that he might not be able to cope with this situation, so he sent a foolish girl to the capital with a letter to meet Lin Jue. At this moment, her only hope was Lin Jue.
