Leng Linjiang said: "I also heard it from Lao Liu a long time ago. I didn't hear it clearly, so I didn't worry about it. He said that this Five Flavors Wine Shop is a hidden secret of the Department of Internal Health. If you hadn't come here today, Copy, I still can’t remember it.”

Yao Yao raised his eyebrows: "Oh, then, where is the beautiful shopkeeper?"

Leng Linjiang laughed: "Of course he is also from the Department of Internal Security."

The cold and handsome boss and the beautiful and docile subordinates, isn't this exactly what the overbearing CEO and the female secretary are like in romance novels? Just thinking about it makes me feel beautiful. Yao Yao raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Hey, what's that expression on your face? What good things are you hiding? You don't think I'm your brother." Leng Linjiang squinted his eyes and glanced at Yao Yao.

Yao Yao waved her hand, and Leng Linjiang came closer. She was talking and laughing. Before she finished speaking, Leng Linjiang fell down with laughter: "You, tell me, have you read too many excerpts from the drama? What is this belly full of? By the way, Ah Yao, if you didn’t take those three people away, what would you do with the Yongle Fang case?”

Yao Yao raised his eyebrows and snapped his fingers: "I've been interrogated a long time ago, but I haven't left yet. I'm just waiting to hunt rabbits. Who knew that what came was not a rabbit, but a tiger."

"I knew you were good. Let's have some midnight snacks while we're on our way." Leng Linjiang said with a smile.

Yao Yao smiled and said: "It's already under curfew, where can we eat?"

Leng Linjiang got on his horse and said, "With Master Leng here, the curfew is nothing. There is nowhere to eat." He waved his hands behind him: "Brothers, hurry up, let's go to Pingkangfang."

The sound of horses' hoofbeats was very clear, circling in the deep winding alleys. Yao Yao's eyebrows skipped a beat when he heard the word "Pingkangfang". He always thought of their eyes meeting each other when they woke up in the morning, and his ears felt a little warm.

She shook her head fiercely, why was she just a member of the Internal Security Department, and why wasn't she a chief of staff? What a pity.

Leng Linjiang glanced sideways, looking at Yao Yao's meaningful smile: "A Yao, you are getting better and better at flattering yourself even though you are wearing a lot of clothes. Old Han even made you stunned for a moment. "

Yao Yao raised his whip and smiled: "That's right, we have learned the art of flattering horses in Ye Ting, can we be any worse?"

Calm has returned to Wuwei Liquor. Han Changmu is sitting calmly, Cheng Xiyan is standing quietly next to him, but the three people have disappeared.

"Major Ambassador Han, what is the connection between these three people and General Yang Qi's defection?" Cheng Xiyan asked confused.

Han Changmu tapped on the table: "Does Lieutenant Cheng know about Yang Youzi's eldest daughter?"

Cheng Xiyan nodded: "I know, the affairs of Mr. Yang Qi's family have spread all over the city."

"Okay, then Captain Lao Cheng will tell you in detail." Han Changmu glanced at Cheng Xiyan and said.

Cheng Xiyan nodded: "Mr. Yang has two sons and two daughters. The eldest daughter Yang Yinghua is sixteen years old. The second daughter Yang Yuhua and the eldest son Yang Guanyi are twins. They are both thirteen years old, and the second son Yang Xinyi is two years old."

"Why, the second son is so young, is he born to his step-wife?" Han Changmu asked.

"Exactly." Cheng Xiyan nodded and continued: "Mr. Yang's original wife died of illness ten years ago. They renewed their relationship eight years ago, married Mrs. Li, and then gave birth to their youngest son."

Han Changmu nodded slightly: "Continue."

Cheng Xiyan stood with her hands tied: "Eight days ago, the Li family reported to Jingzhao Mansion that their eldest son Yang Guanyi was missing. Later, Yang Yuhua sold herself to a merchant's family as a maid. Five days ago, the eldest daughter Yang Yinghua committed adultery and was arrested by the capital. Zhaofu takes it."

Han Changmu concentrated for a moment and said calmly: "Is Yang Yinghua engaged?"

"No." Cheng Xiyan shook her head: "When Mr. Yang was here, he often said that Yang Yinghua was gentle and quiet and rarely went out. Therefore, this time his stepmother sued him for having an affair and killing his brother Yang Guanyi. It is really unbelievable."

"It doesn't make sense." Han Changmu nodded.

Cheng Xiyan continued: "Major Envoy Han, among the three people Yao joined the army to take away today, one of them happens to be involved in this case. I don't understand. This case is currently being handled by the Jingzhao Mansion. Why should the Envoy do this?" , want." She hesitated.

"A sideways attack, right?" Han Changmu dusted his sleeves with a calm expression.

"I don't dare to do this because of my humble position." Cheng Xiyan lowered her head slightly. She had spent several years in the Internal Security Department and knew the rules and even more about being powerful. Han Changmu was the youngest young envoy she had ever seen, but he had the coldest aura on his body. It's heavy, she's a little scared.

Han Changmu tapped the desk gently: "Why did Yang Youzi's children get into trouble one after another after he defected? If his defection is confirmed, that would be fine, but if it is confirmed that he was wronged or died in the line of duty, then his The title and pension should be inherited by his son. If his eldest son dies at this time, who will benefit."

Cheng Xiyan was speechless. She didn't think so deeply. She just felt that she had a grievance to complain about. As for how to clear her grievances, she didn't know.

Han Changmu frowned slightly: "To put it another way, how did the person who did this know that Yang Youzi did not defect but died in the line of duty? If you do these things at this time, you will get a lot of benefits."

Cheng Xiyan understood and said hurriedly: "What Young Ambassador Han said is, what to do next, I will make arrangements for you."

Han Changmu rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I'm hungry. Do you have anything to eat?"

"..."

At dawn, a thin layer of autumn dew soaked the horse's mane. It rained a little in the middle of the night, and the ground was a little damp.

Horse hooves clattered across the winding alley, leaving a series of shallow footprints on the green bricks.

Yao Yao and Leng Linjiang rested for half the night in Pingkangfang, and when they were about to open the gate, they hurried back to Guangdefang.

At the gate of Xifang, Leng Linjiang smiled and threw two packages of plum blossom buns to Fang Ding: "Thank you for your hard work, brothers."

Fang Ding smiled enthusiastically and said: "Leng Shaoyin, Yao joined the army, you two are so polite. You bring food to the brothers every time. This, how can this make the brothers feel bad?"

One of the workers smelled the aroma of the buns, and as if he remembered something, he hurriedly said: "By the way, Leng Shaoyin, Yao joined the army, and the newly appointed envoy Han from the Internal Security Department is here."

Yao Yao and Leng Linjiang looked at each other and said in unison: "When."

Fang Ding said: "Just now."

"Thank you." Leng Linjiang and Yao Yao both raised their hands, waved their whips vigorously, and urged their horses to rush back to the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen Office.

The two of them got off their horses. A Yamen servant had already come to hold the horses, and the two of them walked inside without stopping.

"A Yao, you offended Lao Han last night, please be more polite today." Leng Linjiang warned.

Yao Yao raised his eyebrows. He thought he was the leader of Feng Heyuan. He even offended him at Wuwei Winery. How could he dare to mess with him? It was too late to flatter him: "He is the fourth grade, and I am the seventh grade." , how dare I, a little shrimp, bear grudges against Feng."

Leng Linjiang had a look of bitterness and hatred on his face: "I'm afraid that he will bear your grudge."

"..." Yao Yao was speechless: "I won't give it up. As a superior officer, you must have a great consciousness."

Leng Linjiang frowned and shook his head: "You don't understand. The reason why Old Han was appointed as the Young Envoy of the Internal Security Department is because hatred must be repaid."

"..."

Liu Jinghong, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, was a little strange. There was no contact between Jingzhao Prefecture and the Department of Internal Security, and the prisons they were in charge of were not intrusive. How could they be so good? This freshly minted envoy came to the door early in the morning and sat down. He refused to leave and just drank tea without talking.

In Chang'an City, if the Internal Security Bureau comes to the door in person, it is like a crow falling in the yard and crowing, there must be nothing good going on.

He slowly stroked his sleeves and squeezed out a smile uneasily: "Young Envoy Han is really hard-working. He has been busy with business this early in the morning."

Han Changmu sat down at the bottom, holding a cup of tea and sipping slowly: "Master Fu Yin, the tea here is really good."

Liu Fuyin choked up and continued to smile: "Since Mr. Han likes this tea, he will drink a few more cups and take some more with him when he leaves."

Han Changmu thanked him hurriedly: "In this case, I would like to thank Mr. Fu Yin for your kindness."

The morning sun in early autumn was not that hot when it fell on people, but Liu Fuyin felt a faint sweat on his back. He stiffened and continued to smile: "Young Master Han is here today. Do you have any official business?"

Han Changmu scraped off the foam with the lid of the cup and smiled calmly: "It's not any official business. I have just been appointed as the Major Envoy of the Internal Security Department. I came here to pay homage to Mr. Fu Yin."

Liu Fuyin's official position is one level higher than that of Han Changmu, but matters in the court cannot be determined solely by his official position.

The Internal Guard is a close confidant of the saint, a close minister of the emperor, and the envoys and envoys often hang out in front of the saint. It does not matter whether they have merit or not, but it is inevitable that they are familiar with each other.

The Jingzhao Mansion is different. Although the governor is a third-rank official, he is always on the sidelines when discussing matters in the court and during annual palace banquets.

I'm afraid the saint only knows the name of the governor of Jingzhao and his political achievements, but he doesn't know what the governor looks like.

By comparing them like this, it is clear at a glance which one is more important, which one is closer and which one is more distant.

Not to mention that Han Changmu was recommended by His Highness the King of Qin and had a distinguished status, let alone one of his governors. The word "sir" sounded polite, but the more he heard it, the more he felt guilty.

Liu Fuyin felt even more on pins and needles, and his smile was stiff: "Young Ambassador Han is too polite and knows too much about etiquette. This, this really makes me uneasy."

Han Changmu lowered his head and sipped tea without saying a word.

The more silent he became, the more unsure he felt. Liu Fuyin secretly wiped his hands with cold sweat.

Leng Linjiang, who is always wandering around on weekdays, why hasn't he come yet? Only a shameless man like him can deal with such a unpredictable plague god. This person is really unreliable. He is always there when he is not needed. It flashes before my eyes, but when I need it, it is mostly gone.

Just as he was thinking about it, Leng Linjiang's loud voice spoke up: "Old Han, Old Han, you came here early this morning, probably to see A Yao. Let me tell you, last night You can’t blame A Yao for that matter, your Internal Security Department is so mysterious, who can figure it out, you can’t cause trouble for A Yao.”

Liu Jinghong, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, is a kind man, and his kindness is reflected in all aspects. He has suffered losses and endured grievances, and even took the blame. He is quite law-abiding in official matters, not seeking merit but seeking no faults. He has been in a stable officialdom for decades. I am satisfied to survive until the third level of retirement.
