"Ha・・・・・・ Ha ・・・・・・" Zhao Ziliang held the golden nail jujube yang lance in the courtyard to practice martial arts, has been practicing for an hour, a golden nail jujube yang lance waved in his hand impenetrable, his martial arts are becoming more and more exquisite, the control of strength is becoming more and more refined and skilled, there is no waste of strength, practice for more than an hour without panting, face is not red.

While practicing, Brehan came over and reported: "General, Yin Shan Bing asks to see him, saying that there is an urgent matter!" ”

Zhao Ziliang stopped, took the credit, put the golden nail jujube yang lance on the ground, the two Hu Cong came over and carried it away, he took the towel handed over by the other Hu Cong and said while wiping his face: "Let him come in!" ”

Yin Shanbing, who was shrouded in a black-clothed cloak, quickly walked over and arched his hand: "General, Xiao Jiong found it, he was in a house near the west gate last night, at dawn this morning, a jailer entered the courtyard, and soon the jailer came out of the house and died on the side of the street not far away, and then Xiao Jiong took a carriage out of the mansion, there was only one coachman by his side, and now the carriage is heading towards the south city gate!" ”

"Jailer? Xiao Jiong? How could Xiao Jiong have anything to do with the jailer? Zhao Ziliang muttered to himself after listening to Yin Shanbing's report.

Zhao Ziliang then thought of a question and asked, "Whose house is that house?" ”

Yin Shan Bing said: "My subordinates have checked, that mansion is the mansion of a businessman named Song Qingsong, and this Song Qingsong's business seems to be doing a lot of business!" ”

Merchant? At this time, Zhao Ziliang's mind flashed, Xiao Jiong, jailer, and businessman were three nouns flashing one after another, and they seemed to have some kind of connection, by the way, jailer, was the dead jailer the murderer who poisoned and killed sixty people who were locked up in prison? Is Xiao Jiong the mastermind behind them?

As soon as this thought came to his mind, it lingered in Zhao Ziliang's mind, he walked back and forth a few times with his hands behind his back, stopped and said to Brehan: "You immediately take someone to intercept Xiao Jiong, no matter what you think, you can't let him out of the city, but you can't do anything to him!" ”

He touched his head, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said to Zhao Ziliang: "Then his subordinates sent someone to secretly damage his carriage?" Or find someone to pretend to be hit by his carriage and fight him? ”

Zhao Ziliang was stunned, and then smiled: "Go!" ”

Brehan smiled and arched his hand: "No! ”

After Brehan left, Zhao Ziliang was most looking forward to a breakthrough in the interrogation on the noble side, as long as one of Zhang Yulin's four people confessed to be the mastermind behind the scenes, Zhao Ziliang was a little restless at this time, he summoned a servant and ordered: "You go to the Yunzhong military camp to find Lord Gao, and let him come to guard the mansion immediately!" ”

"No!"

What Zhao Ziliang didn't expect was that Gao Shang came quickly, which made Zhao Ziliang very surprised: "Why did you come so quickly?" ”

Gao Shang arched his hand and said: "The lower official met the general's servant on the way to guard the mansion!" ”

"I see!" Zhao Ziliang nodded and asked, "Is there a result of the interrogation?" ”

Gao Shang took out a stack of interrogation records, handed it to Zhao Ziliang and said, "Fortunately, I am not dishonored!" Originally, Zhang Yulin and the four of them refused to confess at first, and the lower officials tried their best to no avail, until yesterday when the general came to tell the lower officials that all the sixty-eight people who were imprisoned in the prison were drugged to death, and the lower officials opened the gap through this, when these four people heard that the other sixty-eight people were all drugged to death, Gao Yaohui couldn't stand it at first, he confessed, this is a confession! ”

Zhao Ziliang immediately looked through the interrogation transcript, and after reading it, his face was solemn and said, "Sure enough, it's him!" ”

Gao Shang was surprised: "The general has already guessed that it is him?" ”

Zhao Ziliang shook his head and said: "This general was very strange to him yesterday when he suddenly appeared in Cloud City, so he sent someone to keep an eye on him secretly, but he didn't expect a jailer to meet him at dawn today, after the two separated, the jailer died nearby, or was poisoned, this jailer reminded General Ben of the sixty-eight people who were poisoned in prison last night, is it this jailer who poisoned these people to meet him?" Now it seems that I am afraid that it is not far from ten! ”

Gao Shang asked, "General, what are you going to do with it now?" This person's identity is extraordinary, his status in Hedong is still above the general, although there is Gao Yaohui's confession, but there is no conclusive evidence, if you want to move him, you are afraid that you can't do it, otherwise it will be easy to be caught! ”

Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "His official position is above the general, and before there is conclusive evidence, of course the general can't move him, but ・・・・・・ someone comes!" ”

"What does the general command?" A Hu stepped forward and arched his hand.

"Go and tell Brehan, just say that Lord Xiao rarely comes to the clouds, and General Ben hasn't had time to entertain him yet! How could he just be allowed to leave? I was going to invite Lord Xiao to come to the Capture Mansion as a guest, and I also invited Lord Xiao to appreciate his face! ”

"No" Hu agreed and left.

Without conclusive evidence, of course Zhao Ziliang couldn't send someone to arrest Xiao Jiong or put him in a cell, but it would be no problem to invite him to come to the Detention Mansion as a guest, and no one else could say anything.

At this time, on the street near the South Gate, a man clutched his chest and fell to the ground and snorted, and the man's brother was arguing with the coachman of a carriage, and the more the two quarreled, the louder it became, while Brehan took a few servants to watch the excitement from the corner of the nearby wall, which of course he directed.

Xiao Jiongnei, who was sitting in the carriage, was already a little impatient, and he said to the coachman through the curtain: "Coachman, give him more money and send them away!" ”

The coachman had a fierce look on his face, he had already added money to the man who was knocked down three times in a row, but the brother of the man who was hit still refused to give too little money.

After listening to Xiao Jiong's words, the fierce look on the coachman's face was even worse, but he still took out a piece of silver from his arms and threw it on the ground, shouting: "Okay, I'll add five taels of silver to you, what a group of untouchables!" Get out! ”

The brother of the man who was hit picked up the silver, but said with an angry face: "How do you talk? We are poor, but not cheap! You coachman dare to insult my two brothers like this, do you think my two brothers are easy to bully? Also, you want to pat your ass and leave when you give five taels of silver? Rich is amazing, huh? Tell you, I don't want this money, let's go to the Shoufu Mansion to fight a lawsuit, and find the adults in the Mansion to comment on it! ”

The onlookers all had a kind of hatred for the rich, and when they heard this, they immediately coaxed: "Yes, go to the official to comment!" ”

Brehan and the others looked at this scene on the street with a smile while knocking melon seeds, at this time a Hu Cong came over and whispered a few words in Brehan's ear, Brehan nodded after listening, and dropped a handful of melon seed shells to greet him: "Brothers, it's time for us to play, go!" ”

Several servants followed Brehan apart from the crowd to the carriage, and Brehan said to the two brothers who were hit: "I was just hit, why don't you give up?" Since they have given so much money, you brothers will accept it when they see it, take the money and leave quickly! ”

The two brothers who were hit hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, since the military master has spoken, the villain brothers will leave immediately, go immediately!" The two said as they took the money and got into the crowd and disappeared.

Brehan walked to the carriage and arched his hand, "Is it Lord Xiao in the car?" The last general is General Zhao Ziliang's chief of the guard, Brehan, my general knows that the adults are coming to the clouds, and they haven't entertained the adults well, why should the adults be in a hurry to leave? A table of banquets has been arranged in the Guarding Mansion, and the general asked the last future to invite adults to the banquet as guests, and my general is also good at the friendship of the landlord! ”

Xiao Jiong's slightly trembling voice came from inside the car: "No need, this official is in a hurry to deal with official business in Taiyuan, I really can't spare time, I bother the general to go back and report, General Zhao's kindness, this official understands it, next time General Zhao comes to Taiyuan, this official will definitely entertain him!" ”

Brehan was extremely "embarrassed" and said: "Why should you be embarrassed by the last general? Before coming out of the Shouzhu Mansion, my general had already spoken, if you don't invite the adults to the banquet, the last general doesn't have to go back, my lord, the last general is just an errand runner, and he can't be the master, wouldn't it be better if the adults have anything to say to my general in person? Someone came, drove the carriage to the guard's mansion, the wine and food were cold, and the general must be in a hurry! ”

"No!" The servants separated the crowd one after another, faintly surrounding the carriage in the middle, and the other servant stepped forward to lead the mules and horses in front of the carriage and turned around and left, and the coachman had to jump into the carriage and follow along.

Guarding the Capture Mansion, Zhao Ziliang was instructing Gao Shang: "Be sure to pry open the mouths of the other three people as soon as possible to get evidence!" In addition, there must be no more poisoning incidents, even in the barracks, and strict precautions must be taken! ”

Gao Shang gave his hand and agreed: "Xia Guan understands!" ”

At this time, Brehan walked in and arched his hand: "General, Lord Xiao has been invited back by his subordinates, and he will serve tea in the lobby!" ”

"Retire!" Gao Shang said and left, while Zhao Ziliang and Brehan came to the lobby.

"Hahaha・・・・・ Lord Xiao, if it weren't for the people below to report that they saw Lord Xiao's car on the street, Zhao didn't know that Lord Xiao was going back to Taiyuan, you see you came to the clouds, Zhao is about to leave before he finishes the friendship of the landlord, if you let the colleagues in the officialdom know, I have to say that I Zhao is not close to people, fortunately, Zhao found out in time and kept Lord Xiao, the banquet in the back hall has been prepared, Lord Xiao, please!"

Although the two of them tore their faces in the barracks yesterday, after all, it was only because of the camp, and this time Zhao Ziliang sent someone to forcibly invite Xiao Jiong, in the current situation of "people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat", Xiao Jiong can only squeeze out a smile and answer: "General Zhao is polite, it is like this, but this official is disrespectful, please!" ”

At this time, in the courtyard of the house near the west gate, the young man rushed into the lobby and reported to Hou Yeyu, who was drinking tea: "Hou Ye, the big thing is not good!" Lord Xiao was forcibly invited by Zhao Ziliang to the Shou Capture Mansion for a banquet! ”

"What?" The teacup in Hou Ye's hand fell to the ground with a clatter, and shattered, he got up and said: "It seems that the matter is beyond our control, where was Xiao Jiong invited to guard the Capture Mansion, on the surface it was invited, but in fact, he was arrested, and when he got close to the Capture Mansion, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to come out!" Now that the guards have been replaced, it is impossible for us to do anything anymore, hey, I knew that Xiao Jiong should have been killed when Liao San came to report, otherwise this would not have happened! Ben Hou's heart is still too kind! ”

The young man asked, "Master Hou, what should we do now?" ”

"Xiao Jiong has been placed under house arrest, Zhao Ziliang must have sent people around to find Xiao Jiong's evidence now, if Xiao Jiong can't bear to open his mouth to confess to Ben Hou, Ben Hou is only afraid that he will fall in, for the sake of today's plan, I can only rush back to Taiyuan to control Xiao Jiong's whole family, some of his family are in Ben Hou's hands, he shouldn't dare to talk nonsense! Even if Zhao Ziliang found Xiao Jiong's evidence, Xiao Jiong would not dare to confess Ben Hou for the sake of his family's life, he could only carry all the sins on himself and die! You go and get ready, and we'll go! ”

"Master Hou is smart, the little one is going to prepare!" (To be continued.) )
