It was a coincidence that Song Cheng had heard Song Che talk about it.Seeing Song Cheng's excited face, Qi Yue asked, "You know?"

"I'm guessing. I heard that when the Bian River was dug, there were many abandoned ditches. They were very deep, and people's voices could often be heard in them. The government has never been there. Qi Yue, do you think it is possible for them to hide?" Where is it?" Song Cheng asked hastily.

When Qi Yue heard the words, he suddenly realized, he nodded again and again, he got up and put on his clothes while talking, he said: "Chengzi, you sleep first, I'll go back to the Yamen."

Song Cheng grabbed Qi Yue and dragged him to sit down, "There's a curfew outside in the middle of the night, so tomorrow is still too late for what you are going to do."

Qi Yue smiled and said: "There's no curfew yet, and if there's a curfew, I don't care about me. You go to bed first, and I have to get this case down quickly."

While Qi Yue was talking, he was already dressed, he put the dagger in his waist, smiled, lowered his head and kissed Song Cheng, and said, "Go to sleep, I will accompany you well when I finish my work."

Song Cheng nodded and shrank into the bed.Qi Yue walked out softly and closed the door.

As soon as Qi Yue arrived at the yamen, he called the head arrester and gathered all the arresters he had accepted. Qi Yue was wearing a regular uniform with tightly tied sleeves, a smart outfit, and a long knife on his waist.

The head catcher gathered all his subordinates and counted fifty catchers. Qi Yue nodded and told the battle plan.

"Prisoners are now probably hiding in the abandoned ditches of the Bian River. Those ditches have not been dredged all year round, and there are mud in some places, and the roads in them are very complicated, and most of the prisoners are desperadoes, so this operation is very dangerous. , you must pay full attention and act carefully, understand?" Qi Yue swept across the faces of the arresters, and the arresters held their heads high: "Understood!"

Qi Yue nodded and said: "The matter is urgent and there is no time to delay. Today we are mainly investigating, and we must not startle the snake. Tomorrow, I will ask His Royal Highness to send us two hundred forbidden troops, and then we will wipe out all these people!"

"My subordinate understands."

"Set off."

Qi Yue went out first, and when the long knife was held in his hand again, Qi Yue felt refreshed, as if they were doing sneak attacks at night.

Qi Yue ordered the soldiers to investigate carefully in five directions, and withdraw immediately if there is a possibility of being discovered.Qi Yue led a team alone, and deliberately entered from the place closest to the ditch where the incident occurred.

A few people walked through the alley and came to a ditch. There were tall weeds growing in the ditch. Qi Yue slid down the edge of the ditch gently. Everywhere is on the ground, it seems that people often walk.

Qi Yue looked back and forth, found nothing unusual, and waved lightly to the arresters behind him. The arresters were all good hands, and one by one followed Qi Yue's appearance and arrived in the canal.

Qi Yue saw that the people behind were following him, so he looked inside carefully. The soil under his feet was getting less and less, and he could see the bottom of the canal gradually, and the weeds were getting less and less. By the moonlight, he could faintly see some people in front of him. bridge.

Qi Yue made a gesture to stop the people behind him, and he walked forward alone, and after a while, he saw light shining through the bridge hole, inside was drinking and punching, a group of people were chattering loudly, Qi Yue curled his lips and smiled.

He was bold enough to go in close to the ditch, only to see that the side of the ditch had been dug up, forming hidden nests hidden behind the weeds and under the ground.

Qi Yue retreated back, the terrain here is complicated, they are not familiar with the situation and have limited manpower, so they really can't fight recklessly.

As soon as Qi Yue went out, he called his subordinates to retreat, and did not return to the mansion until all the people had assembled. Qi Yue collected what the several teams saw and did research one by one, and found that the cave below was worthy of being It's called Ghost Fan Tower, and it's really lively.

Qi Yue studied with a few head arresters and sent the arresters to sleep, and waited until tomorrow to report to His Highness the Crown Prince before acting together with the imperial army.

The next day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was greatly surprised when he heard Qi Yue's report, and immediately seconded two hundred forbidden troops to Qi Yue's dispatch.Qi Yue arranged for fifty archers to ambush above the ditches for awe, and asked each team of arresters to bring thirty forbidden troops to act, and blocked the ditches extending in all directions underneath one by one.

Five people were arranged to block each intersection, and the rest of the people went in. When they encountered a fork, they separated their hands and lined up all the roads extending in all directions to block them.Although there are many forks in the road, they are limited after all. Qi Yue's method is simply a hard block.

Originally, it was best to sneak attack at night, but considering that his people were not familiar with the situation below, Qi Yue chose to carry out the raid during the day.

The arresters originally thought that Qi Yue was going to send troops directly, but they didn't expect Qi Yue to let them break up into parts and arrive at their destination one by one, so they started to act.

The people in the Ghost Fan Building are lively at night, except for those who go out during the day to sleep, Qi Yue took down the underground almost without bloodshed, and a group of yamen guards tied up the people inside. , By the way, rescued the woman who was tied into the ghost fan building.

Qi Yue ordered people to clean up all the traces left when they came outside, so that all the archers outside lay in ambush, and those who blocked the intersection also hid.Qi Yue was sleeping on the chair of the boss of Guifan Tower, and the servants and imperial guards under his command were all at the door, and when he came back, he would grab one, and when he came back, he would grab a pair.

Qi Yue didn't wake up until late at night. He stretched his waist and yawned and asked Catcher Wang, "Old Wang, how many have you caught?"

"My lord, I've caught fifteen more." Detective Wang said with a quick smile, Qi Yue nodded and said! "Yes, what day is it now?"

"Third watch."

Qi Yue nodded and said: "Brothers have worked hard, we will close the stall and go back after the fourth watch."

"Yes!" The arresters said with a smile one by one, they have been convinced by this lord Qi after all this experience, this lord acted methodically and thought out every strategy, leading them to deal with these people with ease.

Qi Yue sat up, and flashed out the knife that had no chance of being shot. He waved it casually in his hand, scaring the bandits who were tied up next to him to shrink back one by one.

Qi Yue lifted one man's chin with the tip of the knife and smiled, "What are you afraid of, this knife is steady."

Qi Yue usually looks like a human being, but when he holds a knife in his hand, he has old problems. I can't wait to embed myself in the wall.

When it was four o'clock, two more came back. The two gangsters were a little drunk, and they came in together with their shoulders crossed. Their eyes were blurred. They saw Qi Yue lying on the boss's seat and came over to say hello. .

All the arresters and the imperial guards couldn't help laughing, and several people stepped forward to take down the two drunks, Qi Yue got up and smiled and said: "The boss is right, you have to enter the Kaifeng mansion. listen to me."

The two drunks didn't realize until they were tied up that they didn't even need to struggle now. They were tied so tightly that they couldn't even move their wrists.

Qi Yue returned to the Kaifeng mansion with a lot of small gifts in a mighty manner, and ordered someone to open the wine in the mansion office to reward the guards, and all the people drank up the wine before going home to sleep.

When Qi Yue walked home, the sky was already slightly bright, and there were gradually people walking on the road. When Qi Yue arrived home, Mrs. Qi was already up. He first said hello to Mrs. Qi when he entered the door, and was driven to sleep by Mrs. Qi.

Song Cheng was still sleeping in his own position on the bed, leaning on his own pillow and covered with his own quilt, Qi Yue smiled and took off the dagger and waist knife on his body, took off his coat and got into the bed.

Song Cheng asked vaguely, "Are you back?"

Qi Yue hugged him into his arms and said with a "hmm": "It's still early, let's go to bed later."

"Is it caught?" Song Cheng asked in a daze as he leaned against God Qi Yue, and Qi Yue said softly, "I got it."

Song Cheng stopped talking when he heard the words, and fell asleep with Qi Yue. Qi Yue smiled and kissed Song Cheng's lips and closed his eyes.
