Shui Sheng was found? Is it life or death? where are you now?
Everyone's emotions were agitated, and they immediately thought that looking at Wang Xiaofeng's surprised look, Shui Sheng was probably safe and sound, but why did he come to report the news himself? Could it be that something happened and he needed our help?
"Niece Wang Xian, have you found Niece Shui?" Lu Tianshu stood up suddenly. His movements were so big that he pushed the seat back several feet until it reached the wall.
"Where is Sheng'er?" With a joyful and loud exclamation, Shui Dai no longer wanted to wait for the crowd to get out of the way, and directly performed the "Dengping Ping Crossing Water" Qinggong, stepping lightly on his toes across several wine tables on the field, and arrived. In front of Wang Xiaofeng at the entrance of the lobby.
A hint of joy appeared on Hua Tiegan's gloomy face, but when he stood up and noticed his empty right sleeve swaying with his movements, the smile disappeared again.
Zhao Qing had actually noticed Hua Tiegan's abnormal expression for a long time, and thought in his mind: Hua Tiegan's brother was killed and his martial arts skills were half-disabled. Could it be that he has become as dark as in the original work? Thinking about it carefully, it seems quite possible. , need to pay some attention.
When Wang Xiaofeng saw his master and two uncles, he reached out and pulled Shui Dai's sleeves, and said with a mix of anxiety and joy: "My cousin has been found, but the official errands of the government have restricted her freedom of travel, saying that they want to interrogate and ask for any evidence." .”
"Official official?" Shui Dai stroked his silver-white beard and was puzzled. He just said that the government wanted to use the achievement of taking down the blood knife ancestor, a wanted criminal, to claim credit from his superiors, so he restricted Shui Sheng's ability. Personal freedom is to be traded with them.
"I want to see where the official came from and secretly detained someone's niece of mine, Lu." Lu Tianshu separated from the crowd and walked away from Wang Xiaofeng at this moment, saying in a loud voice.
In recent years, forces such as the White Lotus Sect and the Tianli Sect have rebelled, and some have even invaded the Forbidden City.
In order to gather strength and suppress the rebel forces with all their strength, the imperial court reduced its control over the Zhengdao martial arts world, and even gave higher status treatment to famous Zhengdao heroes like Lu Tianshu.
Hua Tiegan, who barely put on a smile, walked behind and glanced at Zhao Qing. As he was thinking more, he thought of the previous situation where Zhao Qing commanded people from the yamen to participate in the rescue, and secretly left his thoughts behind.
Zhao Qing heard Wang Xiaofeng's words and couldn't help but think of the results of his interrogation of two eunuchs not long ago.
The two eunuchs came from the inner court, but were under the management of the Imperial Guard Division. They came to Jingzhou this time to investigate the news reported by Ling Tuisi about people gathering in Jianghu to cause trouble, as well as local rumors about treasures, and to command on behalf of the Imperial Guard Division. Ling Tuisi cooperated.
More than ten years ago, Jiaqing was assassinated by an assassin in the palace. He felt that the guards were not tight enough in defending the interior of the palace, so he sent a group of eunuchs to train under the Ouchi guards.
These two eunuchs are one of them, and their superiors are Chief Hai and Deputy Chief Sai of the Guard Department.
After arriving in Jingzhou, the two learned the news about Ling Tuisi's collusion with the Blood Knife Ancestor from Mr. Xiong Qian, who was stationed outside Jingzhou City. They then went to the west of the city to investigate the extent of the fire, and prepared to pass the news back to the guards.
In their mouths, they mentioned the personal and material evidence of collusion between Ling Tuisi and the Blood Knife Ancestor. Although the two eunuchs did not know much about the specific circumstances of the evidence, President Xiong Qian's steadfast guarantee convinced them of it.
After Zhao Qing asked about this information, it happened that Shui Dai and others sent someone to invite her to the celebration banquet. For a while, they couldn't think of a way to deal with the problem, so they asked Ding Dian and Di Yun to leave Ling Mansion and stay away while they themselves Went to the banquet first.
From Wang Xiaofeng's words just now, she had some vague guesses. Maybe the so-called witness about the collusion between officials and thieves was Shui Sheng herself.
As for the government officials, they might be here to investigate Ling Tuisi and the prefect's Yamen.
Now it seems that this is obviously a conspiracy with wide scope.
After hearing Wang Xiaofeng's plea for help and Lu Tian Shuishuidai's cry, most people in the restaurant began to rush to the prefect's Yamen.
However, it is unclear whether more of them are doing it for the sake of loyalty or simply joining in the fun.
…
At the Yamen of Jingzhou Prefecture, dozens of soldiers holding spears stood guard outside the half-open red door. The shining spearheads separated a large number of people from the rivers and lakes who were surrounding the outside and looking inside.
In the middle of the lobby of the Yamen, stood a skinny old man wearing a lion patch suit with bulging temples on both sides. This man was Xiao Fulu, the commander-in-chief of Yichang Town.
He looked at the military attachés under his command beside him, then faced the tall and burly Lu Tianshu opposite, holding a heavy ghost-headed sword, and said:
"I am temporarily detaining Miss Shui this time because there is an important case that requires her to testify, but she will not be harmed in the slightest. Daxia Lu, Daxia Shui and others can rest assured."
"What kind of case is it? How long will it take to resolve it? Was my daughter rescued by someone from your government? In that case, I, Shui, am extremely grateful."
Shui Dai, wearing a long sword on his waist and looking anxious, asked. Lu Tianshu and Hua Tiegan on the side also showed doubts, wanting to know the specific situation Shui Sheng encountered.
Xiao Fulu sighed and said: "It won't take a few days, and the matter will be resolved. I am here, and I also believe in the character of these heroes, so I will tell you some news, and please do not spread it outside."
"Prefect Ling, the prefect of Jingzhou Prefecture, colluded with the masters of the Tibetan Blood Sword Sect, and wanted to secretly seize the Liancheng treasures that were circulated in Jingzhou City. After Miss Shui was kidnapped by the Blood Sword Ancestor, she accidentally eavesdropped We learned about the collusion between these two parties.”
"After Miss Shui was taken out of the city by Magistrate Ling's men, due to the thief's poor martial arts skills, she successfully found an opportunity to ask for help from the soldiers of my subordinate Xiong Qian, and was so shocked that the thief who captured her fled in confusion, thus making I got the news here.”
"After all, Magistrate Ling is a local official. If you want to take him down, you need to ask for instructions from a superior like the governor's office before you can officially take action. Now, my soldiers have surrounded Ling Mansion. Ling Tuisi No matter how powerful you are, it’s impossible to escape.”
Ling Mansion was surrounded? So fast? Zhao Qing, who was standing by the side as Lu Tianshu and others walked in, was shocked.
Although he had asked Ding Dian and the others to leave for the time being, there were still some servants left in the Ling Mansion. As long as one or two people told the soldiers outside the truth, the circumstances of his killing of Ling Tuisi would be exposed.
It seems that it is quite troublesome to solve this matter.
In addition, it is hard to imagine how Shui Sheng got the information about the so-called collusion with Ling Tuisi from the Blood Knife Ancestor?
